Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

Day two.

Under the leadership of Zhao Tingzhi, one hundred thousand urgent memorials were once again placed in front of Zhao Xu, allowing Zhao Xu to make a decision.

The three prime ministers watched this scene with cold eyes. Although they knew that the atmosphere in the court was not right, they did not stop it. After all, they also wanted to test Zhao Xu's ability.

If Zhao Xu falls into the trap easily, it means that they are right to support Empress Dowager Gao to listen to the government behind the curtain. If Zhao Xu can see through the ministers' plot, then they will have to re-examine the possibility of Zhao Xu's personal rule.

High-end power struggles are often so simple and unpretentious, with the capable at the top and the mediocre at the bottom.

"Absolutely lawless!"

Zhao Xu looked at the memorial in his hand and said angrily.

Zhao Tingzhi and others were overjoyed, and they immediately knew that Zhao Xu's emotions had been affected by them. As long as Zhao Xu made any move, flaws would definitely be exposed.

Fan Chunren and others sighed inwardly. The official family was still too young and easily fell into the trap.

Zhao Xu said with an angry face: "My dear friends, please take a look. Among the unjust, false and wrong cases reported by Su Aiqing, the Criminal Division, there is one case that is the most outrageous. Bi Sheng later participated in the case of fake friends. The mastermind was innocent and the participants were innocent. Not guilty. After Bi Sheng was a craftsman, everyone was executed. Could it be that the officials who tried the case were blind?"

Zhao Tingzhi and others were overjoyed that Su Dun had rehabilitated Bi Sheng. It was precisely the civil injustice cases they carefully selected to anger Zhao Xu.

When Su Shi heard the official's memorial naming his son, he immediately seconded it and said: "This case has been a strange injustice for thousands of years. Instead of arresting the mastermind, the craftsmen were used as compensation for the crime. Please ask the officials to investigate thoroughly."

"According to the report! I've ordered someone to conduct a thorough investigation!" Zhao Xu said angrily.

"The officials are wise!" All the officials praised one after another.

Zhao Xu looked around and solemnly said: "I have recently seen the memorials of all my dear friends. It can be said that I have trouble sleeping and eating. I found that the common people were repeatedly oppressed, evildoers colluded with government officials and businessmen, and went unpunished. Kind people were oppressed repeatedly. If things go on like this, the Song Dynasty is in danger. as well as."

"I am panicking!" Zhao Tingzhi and others complimented one after another.

All civil and military officials had complicated eyes, and they knew in their hearts that the Song Dynasty would probably start another reform path from today on.

Zhao Xu looked around the court, no longer as angry as before, and said calmly: "Mencius said: The people are the most important, the king is the most important, and the country is the second. Taizong of the Tang Dynasty once said: The king is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry it. Even a boat can be overturned. As the leader of the Song Dynasty, how can I sit back and watch the people be oppressed repeatedly?"

"Today I issue an order to punish traitors and eradicate evil. I order all roads and counties in the country to strictly deal with thieves, bullies, local ruffians, collusion between officials and businessmen, and other evil deeds that oppress the people."

"An order to punish rape and eliminate evil!"

The officials in the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but be stunned. How come they had never heard of this new law.

Zhao Tingzhi and others couldn't help but frown. They didn't expect that Zhao Xu would go against common sense and create his own method instead of using a new method, which made the official's idea of ​​deliberately irritating Empress Dowager Gao come to nothing.

However, Zhao Tingzhi was not discouraged, as there were bound to be loopholes in any reform. When the time came, they would only need to use some means to turn this seemingly selfless order to punish rape and eradicate evil into a bad government.

The three prime ministers Fan Chunren breathed a sigh of relief. Although His Majesty still has the ambition to reform the law, he has not restarted the new law. This is also good news.

As for the order to punish rape and eliminate evil, Zhao Xu stood on the moral high ground of valuing the people over the king, and they had no reason to refute. After all, the people were really resentful about the reports given by the court during this period.

At this point, the first official decree since Zhao Xu ascended the throne was officially issued.

"The government has enacted a new law!"

King Yong Zhao Hao received the news from the court immediately and couldn't help but be ecstatic. As expected, Zhao Xu's young mind could not bear loneliness once he gained power, so he issued the new law so rashly.

Zhao Tingzhi shook his head and said: "Your Highness King Yong, the order to punish rape and eliminate evil is not Wang Anshi's law, but a new law!"

Zhao Hao sneered and said: "It doesn't matter whether it is a new law or not, as long as it is a reform law, it will be fine as long as it becomes a law that will harm the country and the people."

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said: "King Yong is wise!"

At that moment, Zhao Hao immediately entered the palace to fulfill his filial piety to his mother, while Zhao Tingzhi secretly collected loopholes in the order to punish rape and eradicate evil.

In Kaifeng City!

When the Kaifeng Mansion received Zhao Xu's order to punish rape and eliminate evil, Su Song immediately carried out the order meticulously.

On that day, Kaifeng County Lieutenant Fan Zhengping led the Kaifeng government officials to go out to arrest the gangsters and bullies in Kaifeng City. All those caught were severely punished.

Suddenly, Kaifeng gangs were in turmoil, either being caught or fleeing.

Even Gao Qiu, who was exiled thousands of miles away, did not escape the punishment. He was involved in a crime of extortion and was sentenced to another three years.

For a time, no one picked up lost objects on the streets of Kaifeng, and public security was excellent.

"Good! These ruffians finally found their comeuppance!"

"The officials really love the people like their own children!"

"The order to punish rape and eradicate evil is good governance!"

All along, no matter the new laws or the old laws, they have been used to manage the people of the world, and even work with the local gangsters to oppress the people. However, the order to punish rape and eliminate evil has prevented countless people from being bullied. Naturally, everyone applauded.

In Kaifeng City.

Zhao Tingzhi worked hard to collect loopholes in the order to punish rape and eliminate evil, but found that there was no way to start.

The orders to punish rape and eradicate evil are suppressing gangsters and bullies. These people were already complaining, but now they are severely punished by the government, and no one can speak for them.

On the contrary, by severely punishing these gangsters and bullies, everyone cries for peace and stability in the society, and officials also sit back and clear their names, getting the best of both worlds.

"Impossible? All reforms are controversial, and the order to punish rape and eradicate evil cannot be perfect?" Zhao Tingzhi said unwillingly.

Everyone in the court knew that the purpose of the order to punish rape and eradicate evil was to eradicate social cancers, and it must have come from Fan Zheng's medical skills. He tried his best to persuade King Yong and found an opportunity to take revenge, but now he was making a wedding dress for Fan Zheng.

"No! The order to punish rape and eliminate evil is not without loopholes. As soon as this order was issued, the prisons of Kaifeng Mansion were overcrowded. This is a method of cruelty." Zhao Tingzhi's face was ferocious, and he finally found a loophole.

"Officials should think twice. In the Song Dynasty, we governed the country with benevolence. The laws for punishing rape and eradicating evil were severe punishments. Small crimes were severely punished. There was a lot of dissatisfaction among the people."

At this moment, Zhao Tingzhi teamed up with the censor to attack the order of punishing rape and eradicating evil with all his strength.

Zhao Xu asked back: "Zhao Aiqing, please tell us in detail which people are upset and which people are dissatisfied."

Zhao Tingzhi was immediately stunned and said vaguely: "This order is too harsh and will damage your Majesty's reputation. There are many objections among the people, and even minor ministers have heard about it."

Zhao Xu sneered and said, "It's those local ruffians who are making noise! ​​How did I hear that once the order to punish rape and eliminate evil was issued, people would not pick up lost items on the road, and everyone would applaud them."

At the moment, Zhao Xu opened Su Song's memorial and handed it to officials for circulation.

Su Song was old-fashioned and stubborn, but his character was recognized by the whole court. With Su Song's memorial and what they had seen and heard, they couldn't help but nod slightly.

As Fan Zheng expected, local ruffians are like scabies and carbuncle. Everyone hates them and no one stands up for them. Some people may be sentenced harshly, but there are almost no unjustly accused people.

"The officials are wise!" All the officials said one after another.

The young Zhao Xu sat on the dragon throne among the complex officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and his first order in charge could be said to be a perfect pass.
