Chapter 508 The Prime Minister’s Deal(1/3)

Zhao Xu was not in a hurry about Li Yong's case.

He doesn't even care about the truth of this case!

He only cares about one thing - how to use this opportunity to infiltrate people from the Detective Department into Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple.

Then, complete the control and mastery of Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple.

Once this is done, everything else is just trivial matters.

These days, Shi Deyi has selected suitable candidates in the Detective Department and has begun training.

Just waiting for the opportunity when Cai Jing takes over the Dali Temple, he will use Li Yong's case to clean up the Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple and infiltrate them.

But then again, Li Yong's case is quite interesting.

Zhao Xu thought about the files that Fu Yaoyu had uncovered so far and the confessions that were obtained based on An Dun's interrogation.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said in his heart: "It's really interesting, isn't it?"

"If the details of this case are completely recorded and passed on to later generations, then the first stage of the case alone will be a vivid textbook of the government's behavior of squeezing wealthy businessmen during the Song Dynasty!"

In modern times, Zhao Xu followed his teacher and did similar projects.

So, he looked at the files and then the confessions.

The smell reached his nose.

So familiar!

Had it not been for the fact that the defendant was an official and his son was still an official in the capital.

Then this is almost a standard process for the Song Dynasty government to use justice to squeeze and exploit wealthy businessmen.

This kind of thing usually occurs in property dispute cases between local military and state governments.

The favorite thing among local subordinates and officials is disputes over property.

The magistrates would decide in favor of the plaintiff at one time and in favor of the defendant at another.

The calls went back and forth, the magistrates and magistrates were called, one after another.

Everyone can happily take a large amount of money with them when they leave.

The property of the plaintiff and defendant was slowly drained away in the process.

In the end nothing is left.

Li Yong had the courage to go to Beijing to file an imperial complaint even though he could afford a huge sum of three thousand guan to buy himself an official position.

That means his property is far more than three thousand guan.

Naturally, it is reasonable for him to be targeted.

Therefore, there is an explanation for the bizarre operations and shocking verdicts of Kaifeng Mansion, as well as the fact that the wealthy businessman named Li Yong has been fighting in Bianjing.

Those guys in Kaifeng Mansion simply didn't want Li Yong to give up.

They are in PUA Li Yong.

They are deliberately prolonging the lawsuit and delaying the case.

The purpose is to drain Li Yong's property.

Maybe, when Li Yong was litigating in Kaifeng Prefecture, he might have received help, guidance and sympathy from many "conscience" officials.

that is……

Zhao Xu has not yet figured out two issues.

First: How could Hu Ji be so stupid?

It’s understandable that the people below would be tempted by a few thousand coins.

A person with big eyes is always only as big as money.

But Hu Ji was a court official and had a bright future.

How could he destroy his reputation for thousands of dollars that he may not always get?

There must be something hidden inside.

Second, was Li Yong already spotted by others before he entered the capital? Did he come to the capital specifically to be a pawn across the river? Or was he discovered and selected in Bianjing City?

This question is very important.

It doesn't matter whether there are any careerists in the court!

If it's the former...

This person must not be kept!

You dare to make long-term plans today and make plans to dominate. It's time to stop.

Will you dare to use me as a pawn to plot against me tomorrow?

I have no father!

No matter how good-tempered and magnanimous Zhao Xu was, he would never tolerate such a person.



Of course it is impossible for the governor in the capital to know everything!

If this is the case, they are not worthy of being governors.

Especially Han Jiang, written by Lu Gong, an old minister with countless sources of information in the palace.

It was almost when Fu Yaoyu left Qingshou Palace.

Rough details about the Qingshou Palace have been sent to the desks of the two prime ministers.

About half an hour later, other officials in the capital also obtained the sources of information from their respective channels.

In the Song Dynasty, this was a normal thing.

Don't look at the civil servants who scold their ministers every day and often strike hard and stab a few unlucky ministers to declare their status.

But in fact, as long as the butt is sitting in the position of being controlled or even dominated.

Everyone will have one or two close ministers.

Especially in the current special situation where the young master is in charge of the government and the two palaces.

The exchanges between the inner court and the outer court are becoming increasingly close.

The palace will not interfere with the exchanges between the inner court and the outer court now.

Because this is to win the trust of the foreign court.

Shows that there is no privacy in the palace!

Otherwise, the officials in the outer court will become suspicious.

This is also caused by the special pattern under the current special circumstances.

The imperial party is powerful!

In partial birth, the official family is young and cannot handle the affairs of the palace, so the power falls into the hands of the two palaces.

At this time, if the officials of the outer court cannot even grasp the affairs in the palace in time.

It's hard to guarantee that someone will be suspicious and come up with something.

That's not good.

Therefore, now is the happiest time for the civil servants of the Song Dynasty.

On the one hand, the emperor was young and the two palaces were in charge of political affairs, but the two palaces were not familiar with the general affairs.

A large amount of power that used to belong to the emperor has now fallen into the hands of the prime ministers, and the power of the east and west governments has greatly increased!

The two prime ministers can do what they want to do according to their own wishes.

On the other hand, although the emperor is young, he is not a young man in terms of mind and ability.

Therefore, he can tell the truth!

If major matters such as changing laws and policies are presented to him, he will not object, so everyone can proceed with confidence.

If something goes wrong, this official will not even blame the prime minister.

Instead, he will redeploy and adjust.

This is great.

This is also the reason why the imperial party is growing day by day. Even now in the court, there are voices whispering: Today's son is smart, handsome and benevolent. Although he is young, he already has the laws of his ancestors and the majesty of the king is comparable to that of a king.

That's right.

The subtext inside and outside the words is - the emperor should hurry up and take charge!

That is to say, that official has never expressed his intention to personally govern.

Not even suggestive movements.
To be continued...
