Because of Cao Ping, Cao Dongdong and his son went to the northwest to open up wasteland, and the police station did not have a backbone. Faced with such things, it was reasonable to be a little afraid. However, after receiving a reply from the procuratorate, the police station immediately sent someone

Go to the Imperial City Department and ask.

But I only got four words in the Imperial City Division.

No comment!

It turns out that the Royal Police was originally born out of the Forbidden Army, and it weakened the status and power of the Forbidden Army in the field of public security, and also cut off the financial resources of many people.

This, of course, caused dissatisfaction among the three yamen, but this was the emperor's arrangement, and he was given the title of Royal Police. In addition, Cao Ping was the chief superintendent, so the three yamen only dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

The Imperial City Division is subordinate to the Dianqian Division and is the boss of the three yamen. When they saw the Royal Police coming to their door, they felt very unhappy. You Royal Police are just illegitimate sons, but our Imperial City Division is their biological son. Don’t be shameless.

, there is not a single good word to say.

At present, it is true that the police station cannot control the Imperial City Division, because the Imperial City Division mainly looks after the gates of the Imperial City. The Imperial City is not under the control of the Royal Police, who only care about the neighbors.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei and Huang Chengsi have always had secret contacts.

In the evening, Zhang Fei came out of the procuratorate and got on the carriage, only to see Li Bao already sitting on the carriage.

Seeing Zhang Fei, Li Bao looked a little embarrassed, "I sent someone to check, and this person is indeed in the Imperial City Department."

Zhang Fei immediately asked: "Is the person still alive?"

Li Bao said: "He's still alive, but...he just got a little punishment, because he was accused of slandering the government and intending to rebel, and the other party refused to admit it, so...!"

"Just stay alive."

Zhang Fei breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "The officials should have ordered us to act with caution in extraordinary times. Why didn't I feel your caution at all? You didn't even inform me of this in advance."

Li Bao immediately said: "You can't blame me. The marriage officers of the Imperial City Department don't know my existence. I told you before that the Imperial City Department is actually divided into two parts. One part is in the Ming Dynasty, and the other is in the Ming Dynasty.

Those who manage the gates of the imperial city have positions in the front office.

We have no positions in the army, and the commanders of the Front Division don't know our details. Only the officials and a few generals of the Front Division know.

Moreover, they only captured one or two soldiers, which is not a big deal."

"Wait a minute!"

Zhang Fei asked: "Is it one or two?"

Li Bao said: "They should have been arrested both. But this cannot be blamed on the Imperial City Division. Whoever allowed them to talk nonsense and disturb the morale of the army would arrest them if they were not arrested."

Zhang Fei asked: "What step is it now?"

Li Bao said: "They have admitted their crimes. The Imperial City Division is preparing to arrest their family members and bring them to justice. At that time, the Imperial City Division will hand over the case to Dali Temple for judgment."

"Dali Temple?"

Zhang Fei's eyes lit up.

Li Bao nodded and said: "In the past, cases about soldiers have always been handed over to Kaifeng Mansion. Unless they are some more important officials, they will be handed over to Dali Temple. However, the Imperial City Department does not want to deal with the Procuratorate. They will hand over the case to the Procuratorate."

Leave it to Dali Temple."

"That's good!"

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "When you tell the officials later, please remember to tell me that if this kind of matter is handed over to the public prosecutor, it will be very difficult. The best result now is that everyone pretends not to know. The Imperial City Secretary

Just follow the procedure and hand it over to Dali Temple."

Li Bao nodded, "I understand."

"besides!"

Zhang Fei added: "You should also take a look at the Imperial City Department, at least to ensure that there is no surprise attack on me. The situation in the DPRK and China is already complicated, and I really can't take care of it."

Li Bao nodded and said: "I'll try my best, but the people in the Imperial City Division also act secretly. If you follow too closely, they will find out."

"All right!"

Zhang Fei said.

...

At night, after dinner, Gao Wenyin, Mu Zhen and his wife went back to their houses respectively. Only Xu Zun, Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian sat in the courtyard to cool off. It was already summer and the weather was relatively hot.

"How about it?"

Xu Zun asked.

Zhang Fei said: "There are not one person in the Imperial City Division, but two. Now under torture, both of them have confessed."

Xu Zhiqian said: "Two soldiers were drunk in a tavern, and they were accused of treason because of a drunken remark. It's really a joke."

Zhang Fei pointed at her belly and said, "Pay attention to the fetus. If you get so angry, I won't talk to you next time."

Xu Zhiqian quickly defended: "I'm not angry, I'm just stating the facts."

She is bored at home every day now, and she relies on this to relieve her boredom.

Xu Zundao: "Actually, this kind of case wouldn't have been a big deal in the past."

Zhang Fei hurriedly asked: "What do you think, father-in-law?"

Xu Zundao: "Because from the Taizong period to the Renzong period, ministers continued to impeach the Imperial City Division, and successive monarchs also issued decrees to impeach the Imperial City Division. The constraints on the Imperial City Division became tighter and tighter, until Wang Jiefu launched the reform.

, the Imperial City Division gradually became active again."

Zhang Fei nodded slightly.

This is a normal political operation. Reform will inevitably cause turmoil in the current situation, so both Zhao Xu and Wang Anshi must control their speech.

The scope of the Imperial City Division's activities will naturally expand.

It is precisely because of this that the later Taxation Department was born.

"This is just one of them."

Xu Zun added: "Secondly, if there was no lawsuit against Cheng Fang before, this case would not be very difficult. Now, if someone wants to take the opportunity to draw fire to the public prosecutor, it may be very troublesome."

Having just targeted the officials, now they are targeting the Imperial City Department.

After hitting the left cheek, he hit the right cheek. No matter how good-tempered Zhao Xu was, he couldn't stand it!

Zhang Fei nodded, "What my father-in-law said is absolutely correct. I also suggest that the Imperial City Division directly hand over the case to Dali Temple."

"Why?"

Xu Zhiqian asked: "The procuratorate did a pretty good job in the Qizhou rebellion case before."

Zhang Fei said: "This is very different. In the Qizhou rebellion case, we are on the same front as the officials. This case is different. The key is that the public prosecutor and the law are really not good at trying such cases."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu Zhiqian asked curiously: "Why?"

Zhang Fei explained with a smile: "First of all, the issue of authority. The Imperial City Division has the right to arrest people who make such remarks. It is not yet known whether the Procuratorate can take the initiative to intervene.

Secondly, once the procuratorate intervenes, it will face many problems. In the Imperial City Division, prisoners are forced to plead guilty under penalty, while the procuratorate has to rely on factual basis. If the procuratorate prosecutes, it may cause trouble.

To the Imperial City Division.

Finally, is this statement considered illegal? The procuratorate will be in a dilemma from the perspective of the country and the monarch.

So, even though this case is not big, it is just two small soldiers, but it is a very big challenge for the public security system, and we are not ready for it yet."

Xu Zhiqian nodded.

She comes from a family of officials, so she doesn't understand the truth, but she really hopes that the public prosecutor and law can change everything.

Xu Zun sighed and said, "I'm afraid the tree wants to be quiet but the wind won't stop."

Zhang Fei asked: "Father-in-law, do you think they have a chance to connect this case to the public prosecutor's office?"

Xu Zun nodded and said: "In the past, most cases of the Imperial City Division were handed over to the Kaifeng Mansion, followed by Dali Temple. But now that the Public Prosecution and Procuratorate has replaced the judicial power of the Kaifeng Mansion, of course the cases of the Imperial City Division can also be submitted to the Procuratorate.

, proceed with prosecution.”

Zhang Fei frowned: "Then we still have to prepare to avoid being caught off guard again."

The three chatted for a while, then Xu Zun got up and went back to the house. Zhang Fei also gently supported Xu Zhiqian and went to his small courtyard.

"Actually, you also think this is an unjust case, right?" Xu Zhiqian asked coldly.

Zhang Fei asked: "Why do you think so?"

Xu Zhiqian said: "If you didn't think so, you wouldn't be so entangled."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Legally speaking, it's hard to say whether he has been innocent or not. We have to conduct a detailed investigation to know."

Xu Zhiqian said: "But that's not the key point. Your main concern is the official family."

"Yes and no."

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "Actually, my father-in-law is right. This case is not something that the officials cannot bear, but the time is not right. The success of the Public Security Bureau, the Procuratorate, and the Law depends entirely on the support of the officials.

As for the officials who are willing to build the public security system, good and evil are only secondary. The key is to consider the pros and cons.

Therefore, we should try our best to let the officials see the benefits brought by the public security law to the monarch. Only when the officials enjoy the benefits, will they accept the disadvantages to him.

But if this kind of thing happens one after another, it will make the officials feel resistant, and they may fall short of the success and lose everything."

Xu Zhiqian said: "But those powerful people seem to have thought of this too."
