Chapter 259 Secret News
The Kaifeng government office is in the southwest of the inner city. Guo Shao arrived outside the door and called a big drum at the door, which was said to be a drum for the wrongdoer. However, he did not have any wrongdoers and only took out famous posts and asked the officers to send them in to report to the officials. People like Guo Shao who brought a large group of light cavalry attendants and rode good horses could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary people. The officers would naturally take famous posts and ask the officials.
After a while, a group of officials suddenly came out, "Master Guo is here, and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and there are mistakes and the head of the red robe bowed deeply, bent down and spoke, wishing to kneel down for Guo Shao.
"Please hurry, please sit on the seat!" Another old man looked at Guo Shao in awe.
Guo Shao's identity is indeed not low, the General of the Guards. But Kaifeng Prefecture is also a majestic place under the feet of the emperor. Just when the general arrives, he will not receive such courtesy at all. Guo Shao suddenly felt very uncomfortable, but when he saw his respectful looks, he truly realized the subtle changes in just a few days.
A group of officials greeted each other. Guo Shao took two followers into the gate in a swaggering manner and turned around and said, "I just asked Huang Binglian, the Left Office Promoter, to ask Huang Binglian, for some reason. Don't mobilize such a group of people."
"Huang Binglian!" a high-ranking official called out.
At this time, a middle-aged man with a square face and a tall figure walked up and bowed, "What are the instructions of Marshal Guo?"
Guo Shao waved his arms to everyone and said, "The office hours are all gone. I only talk to Huang Tui."
Huang Binglian's position is not very high, but his demeanor is more appropriate than other officials. He looks neither humble nor arrogant, and said politely: "General Guo, please go to the lower official's entrustment room to discuss in detail."
"Please." Guo Shao didn't take it for a sceptic.
A group of people entered a simple and old room and sat down. Guo Shao asked his followers to guard the door. "Look at the tea!" Huang Binglian shouted.
When the officers brought the tea, Guo Shao didn't drink it, and waited for the miscellaneous people to go out. He silently looked at the furnishings on the table. The bright red tablecloth seemed to have a lot of blood sprinkled on it, as well as the king's decree, seals, red pens and some miscellaneous things.
Huang Binglian said: "The emperor gave the king's order and placed it on it, so that the officials and others would never dare to forget their responsibilities when they decided the case."
Guo Shao thought about it again, and then said, "When Huang Prosecutor asked about the case, he always obeyed the law impartially?"
Huang Binglian said seriously: "Since you are an official, you hold the right to live and kill the people, you will naturally do your best to be strict and unbiased. If you always make a wrong case, you will be mediocre; but if you accept bribes and abuse your power for personal gain, you will be greedy. These two principles are a taboo for being an official in the clear and clear government affairs, and harm others and oneself."
Guo Shao praised: "Huang Promoter is neither mediocre nor greedy, otherwise the envoy of Wang Shumi would not recommend you to investigate the case of Zhao Sanlang's assassination."
"Whether it is to investigate Zhao Sanlang's case or to go to the palace to serve the former emperor's clothes a few days ago, the officials spoke impartially. In fact, they have a clear conscience." Huang Binglian hurriedly said, "The officials are not mediocre or greedy, but they dare to recognize them. The great-grandfather, grandfather, father have been officials for several generations. The officials have read the files of the ancestors' wretched wretches, family autopsy, inference, verification and other laws. The minor officials and coroners below dare not perfunctory me, so they are not mediocre. It is also because the Huang family has accumulated fertile land, broad houses, and rich family backgrounds. The officials look down on those common things and do not care about greed against conscience."
"Well said," Guo Shao said, "It's a waste for Huang Promo to be a Promo to be a Promo to be a Promo to be a Promo to be a Promo to our dynasty. Today, our dynasty still follows the ways of Confucius and Mencius, which is to govern people; those who rule people first have the power to govern officials, and if officials are not selected well, the rule of the country will be abandoned. The Great Zhou Dynasty urgently needs talent like Huang Promo to be."
"I dare not, don't dare." Huang Binglian said, "The subordinate officials were just asking about the case."
Guo Shao glanced outside the door and lowered his voice, "But... Whenever Huang Prosecutor asks a case, he will definitely make a clear decision on right and wrong and accept justice?"
Huang Binglian pondered suddenly, observing Guo Shao quietly, touching his chin with a beard for a long time without saying a word. He finally said, "I can't guarantee... After that, when some people can completely control our official positions, life and death, how many people can not surrender? Unless the court has an iron rule that other powers cannot interfere with the prosecution, no one who will be this official will dare to pat the chest and say that it will definitely be clear that it is right or wrong."
Guo Shao said seriously: "It makes sense, Huang Tui Guan is very insightful, and the reason for inference is very advanced. So many people can interfere in the justice of Kaifeng Prefecture, so how can the law be fair? The law can only be effective for the people."
Huang Binglian said: "That's true. How many people in the world are there in those who believe in the law? How long can they be an official? My great-grandfather wrote it in his letter to the family. When the case was investigated to a certain extent, the methods of inference and verification could not be used, but the way of dealing with the world was used. He did not talk about the way of dealing with the world, perhaps he allowed his descendants to have their own awakening."
Guo Shao sighed: "It is indeed a pity that no one can guarantee justice. Perhaps when sages formulated these worldly rules, they also saw the huge loopholes in the rules. Therefore, they had to write many books and scriptures of sages, hoping that those who hold great power could cultivate the 'the original nature of human beings', and that the people above had a benevolent and righteous heart, so that officials could govern the government fairly."
Huang Binglian praised: "Master Guo is a general who is strong in governing all troops, but he has a lot of experience in the art of civil governance, so he is very respectful to the officials."
"I'll just say anything, just laugh at me."
Guo Shao pondered for a long time before saying, "There is a case, I want to ask Huang Promoter to investigate."
Huang Binglian asked: "What kind of case is it?"
"Rapeousness_killing case." Guo Shao said in his face.
Huang Binglian said with a serious look on his face: "Every year, there will be many such cases in the two counties of Kaifeng Prefecture, which is not unusual. But the most important thing is who is involved in the case..."
Guo Shao said in a deep voice: "The rebels must confess that Zhao Pu, the Zhao family raped his brother and sister-in-law."
Huang Binglian's face twitched slightly, and he thought for a while: "It's been two years ago. Now the deceased's body has long turned into bones, so it's not easy to investigate."
"Can we find out whether he killed or died of illness through the corpse?" Guo Shao asked.
Huang Binglian said: "It's hard to say. If it is poisoned, the equipment is injured and left traces on the bones. As long as there are clues, it can be tested and inferred. However, such as suffocating and suffocating after covering the mouth and nose, etc. As long as the bones, skin, and flesh are completely gone, there is no way to detect them... But if there is someone's evidence, there may be some solutions."
"So that's it." Guo Shao said, "Why don't Huang Promoter take over this case? First check the truth, and then let's discuss and then record the file?"
Huang Binglian frowned and did not speak for a moment.
Guo Shao said: "Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice and other government agencies, some officials are old and unable to bear the position of corpses... Or let's investigate it secretly first, and Huang Puyi does not need to sign the file by himself." He said calmly again, "I just want to know the truth, otherwise some secrets will be buried in the ground."
