"Mr. Han, if I remember correctly, the ancestor system is not allowed to kill scholars and officials or those who write to write to talk about things. Isn't that wrong?"

Han Jiang nodded, "Mr. Wang, I know you are angry, but there is nothing I can do about it."

Wang Ning'an stretched out his hand and stopped Han Jiang.

"Mr. Han, I want to ask you, are they still scholars based on the actions of Xu Yong, Sun Mian, Xiao Gu and others?" Wang Ning'an said sternly: "The so-called scholars die as confidants, not to mention the court's kindness, they can all take it lightly for millions of people and thousands of miles of land. If these people are scholars, then how can the face of scholars and officials be there? Don't you feel ashamed to be with these people?"

Han Jiang interrogated for several months, and he knew more about the situation than Wang Ning'an. He knew how dirty the officials in Lingnan were. He was very clear. After being asked by Wang Ning'an, his face turned red and hesitated for a long time, and said ashamed: "Erlang, let's do this. I wrote to the court and asked for severe punishment and executed all three people!"

"No!" Wang Ning'an shook his head flatly, "This is not enough. Hundreds of thousands of unjust souls in Lingnan are waiting in the sky, and the people of the Song Dynasty are watching. If the punishment of the canon cannot be understood, where is the majesty of the court?"

Han Jiang was so sad, "Mr. Wang, Erlang! I can't beg you? If you force me like this, I can't do anything!"

"You have a way!" Wang Ning'an was not polite at all, "Mr. Han, you and I immediately wrote a letter to Zuiweng. At the same time, I would like to ask him, "Can a traitor even be a literati?"

Han Jiang was shocked, "Erlang, what do you mean?"

"Please ask the court and the stern officials involved in the case to deprive the literati and officials!" Wang Ning'an said decisively. As soon as these words were spoken, Han Jiang's eyes lit up.

In the past, the scholars and scholars had no entry or out, that is, they were admitted to the Jinshi or became a great scholar. They were recognized as scholars, but they never thought that what kind of actions would lose the qualifications of scholars and officials.

As Wang Ning'an said, colluding with rebellion, selling military intelligence, and losing territory, such a sinner is not even a man, and he is still a scholar-official?

If these people are deprived of their qualifications, they can immediately understand the punishment. For Xu Yong and Sun Mian, it is not an exaggeration to sentence one Lingchi to death. You should know that the Song Dynasty has always been very cruel in treating rebellion and never showed mercy.

Is it just right to do it?

"Mr. Han, if you want to hesitate, I will just write a letter by myself."

Wang Ning'an was about to leave after he said that, but Han Jiang hurriedly stopped him.

"Erlang, don't get me wrong, I can't cooperate with you!"

...

Han Jiang was forced by Wang Ning'an and was furious. He was unwilling to let go of a few scums. He waved a large pen overnight to write down the crimes of these people in detail, and then rushed to the capital with 600 miles.

Wang Ning'an went south and was struggling with people, so he simply repaired it in Guangzhou. He also had to wait for news from the court. In Wang Ning'an's heart, he had already sentenced a group of human traffickers to death!

It depends on how the court deals with it?

If a scholar can take some face and take the initiative to clean up the scum, he will still respect them. If he can't, haha... Wang Ning'an gritted his teeth. At worst, he would fight one battle and would not believe it. With my wisdom as a human being for two lifetimes, he would not be able to fight them!

Wang Ning'an lives a small life with Yang Xi under the moon every day.

The capital was in chaos at this moment.

The first person to get the news was Ouyang Xiu, and the old master was also very concerned about this case. On the one hand, Ouyang Xiu wanted to kill all these people, but on the other hand, he was also worried that the ancestor system would be difficult to violate and difficult to deal with.

When Wang Ning'an's letter was delivered, Ouyang Xiu's eyes lit up.

This is indeed a solution. Ouyang Xiu agreed with the literati who actively deprived the officials involved in the case, which did not violate the ancestral system, but also showed the decisive side of the scholar and the maintenance of the reputation of the scholar and officials.

He immediately went to the Political Affairs Hall to discuss with Jia Changchao.

As soon as he stepped in, several ministers were there, including Prime Minister Jia Changchao, Second Minister Fubi, Chief Secretary Tang Jie, Privy Councillor Liang Shi, and Third Secretary Zeng Gongliang.

Seeing Ouyang Xiu coming, several people took the initiative to say hello to him.

Jia Changchao opened the right way, "Zuiweng, are you doing the case for Lingnan?"

"That's right." Ouyang Xiu pulled a chair and sat down.

Anyone who is familiar with history knows that the Song Dynasty's restraint on power reached a pathological level, and almost all prime ministers were entitled to the title of Pingzhangshi of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Three Provinces. No one could truly serve as the chief of the three provinces, the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the Secretariat of the Secretariat, and the Secretariat of the Left and Left of the Secretariat, and became the veritable minister.

The officials and officials were appointed as officials and the Privy Councilors were in charge of military power. Accordingly, almost all scholars believed that the power of the Song Dynasty was weakened and restricted.

This idea is right, not right!

As a single individual, it is obvious that the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty were not as prestigious as their predecessors, but as a whole, they were greatly strengthened.

Take the current situation as an example. When something happens, the husbands of the East and West Mansions usually get together. If their opinions are unanimous, they will report to Zhao Zhen directly, and the emperor will almost nod.

Only when differences are serious can the emperor come out to make judgments and coordinate.

After Ouyang Xiu sat down, he said, "I think Xu Yong, Sun Mian and others are angry, resentful, and have many crimes. They are not only sinners of the Song Dynasty, but also shamed the Shilin. If they are not severely punished, what would the people in the world think? If scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and scholars cannot show their example, what are their faces? Assist the sages and lords and govern the people?"

The old Master said loudly, and Tang Jie and Zeng Gongliang both nodded frequently.

"We agree with the drunkard's meaning, and it is also a shame for us to join the sinner!"

The three cannons in the first place were all important officials who were well-known in the Qing Dynasty and were very oppressive.

Jia Changchao glanced at Liang Shi and asked, "What does the Shuxiang mean?"

"Good Jia, the case in Lingnan is too involved. I don't know much. Please make a decision. I support everyone's opinions."

Saying it means not saying it. Liang Shi is also sloppy, but he pointed it out, and this case may not be so simple to draw a conclusion.

Jia Changchao looked at Fu Bi again, "Where is Brother Yanguo? What do you think?"

Fu Bi sighed, "According to Han Jiang's statement, those people are indeed unwilling to excuse them for their sins. It is not an exaggeration to deal with them. But I would like to ask, how to implement the expulsion of Shilin?"

Ouyang Xiu was stunned and hesitated: "My rich man, I don't understand what you mean. Do you think these people can still be literati and wise?"

Fu Bi remained silent, "Brother Yong, I said, I have no objection to what to do with these people. I am worried that this case will happen later. Once this case is opened, what should I do? If there are any officials who make mistakes, they will just find a reason and fire the Shilin, and then they will be able to cut their heads! Is it reasonable? Is the ancestral system still of the majesty?"

Seeing Ouyang Xiu raise his eyebrows, he still has to argue.

Fu Bi directly showed his killer move, "Zuiweng, as the leader of the literary world, you can represent Shilin! Do you think anyone who is not worthy of being a scholar can tell the world, expel Shilin, and then kill him?"

"Rich husband!"

Ouyang Xiuyue couldn't understand Fu Bi anymore. Where did the passionate Fu Yan Kingdom go back then? How did it become like this!

"I, Ouyang Xiu, will definitely not slander a good person, but can those beasts who are truly guilty and have serious sins be let go of them?"

Fu Bi responded tit-for-tat, "Xu Yong was killed, Sun Mian was exiled to the army, and Xiao Gu never used it. Is this a lightly let go? What else should I do? Scout the family and exterminate the clan? Or Ling Chi executed it? Just by using tricks to expel people from Shilin, I want to bypass the ancestral system. Such villain behavior and shameless means are truly dangerous! How can the court rules be as good as they want, and how can they change whatever they want?"

Fu Bi has always been a gentle and elegant image, and people have forgotten that this person has been on a mission to Liao Kingdom and has an unparalleled eloquence. He exploded and Ouyang Xiu was speechless.

Wang Yaochen took the opportunity to say, "I can trust Zhuiweng's character, but if some unfilial people take advantage of this matter and make a big fuss. Shi Lin is expelled from time to time. As such, all officials are anxious and trembling, and there will be no peace in the world."

They sang and cooperated with each other.

Jia Changchao was also embarrassed, saying that he should kill him, he really deserves to be killed.

But the problem is that he is also a scholar, and there is a large group of disciples and old officials behind him. Once the evil example is opened, he will be red from the killing, and no one will be able to get better. Wouldn’t it be a big trouble!

Seeing Jia Changchao hesitating, Ouyang Xiu was furious, "Grandpa Jia, the literati, the literati, and the people were at peace. He should have been trembling, as if walking on thin ice! Taizu left his ancestors' teachings back then because he was worried that his descendants would kill innocent people indiscriminately, suppress the way of speech, and ruin the country. But now, after a hundred years of peace, the emperor is kind, and treats scholars with great courtesy, and they are rebuilt. On the other hand, the literati, who is incompetent in governing the country, greedy and incompetent, and then the major affairs of the country are a joke. Someone informed the traitors. Shouldn't the sage be ashamed, shouldn't the sage, shouldn't the sage be ashamed, shouldn't the stern, and shouldn't reflect on his own mistakes?"

Ouyang Xiu was suddenly aware of his words, and every word hit everyone's hearts. What he said was really good!

Not everyone has the courage of the old master to reflect on himself.

Jia Changchao was silent for a long time and said helplessly: "Everyone think about it carefully and discuss it later."

...

After coming out of the Political Affairs Hall, Ouyang Xiu was not only angry but also disappointed. He really didn't expect that his comrades-in-arms would even dare to know him.

The common people often say that when a crow falls on a pig, you can only see others black, but you can’t see yourself black!

How well said, the civil officials in the court were like guarding against thieves, guarding against military generals, guarding against relatives, and guarding against eunuchs, but in the end, they would do whatever they wanted and corrupt the laws.

The Song Dynasty was different from the Han and Tang dynasties. Its foundation was too thin. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were gone and the Western Regions were lost, so even Hetao could not be defended!

The natural danger is gone, and the horse farm is gone.

Sooner or later, the Song Dynasty will be destroyed by the barbarians, and these scholars and officials who do not know how to reflect will be the real culprit!

Founding the Six Arts Academy may be the most correct thing in your life. You must innovate the Shilin customs and must!!!

The old man was filled with emotion, but there was no way. Under pressure from all parties, the matter was delayed for ten days, and finally the Political Affairs Hall came up with a plan. Xu Yong was extremely guilty, Xiao showed his guilt, Sun Mian was sentenced to death, Xiao Gu was exiled to the northwest, and the other officials involved in the case were punished one level.

This result is already the limit of tolerance for imperial officials. As for the proposal to expel Shilin, it was not adopted at all.

The news soon reached Lingnan. Wang Ning'an saw the result. He thought about his reaction, and might be furious or indignant.

But when he really found out, he was not angry, as if this was what he was!

All the literati of all generations are like this. There are so few who can be consistent in their appearance.

In fact, there is no need to read any historical materials. Just in later schools, it is clear that many teachers are righteous in class, and they are so stern about the sky. As a result, they have a little power in their hands, such as scholarships, certificates, and activities. Which time is not a private grant? How can everyone be convinced?

In order to save one's life and to avoid punishment in order to do dirty things, they must defend Zhao Da's ancestral teachings no matter what.

"I will accept you if God doesn't accept you!"

Wang Ning'an's fists gradually clenched, his eyes were extremely firm. If the court does not kill anyone, let me do it! If you commit a crime, you must be punished as you deserve!
Chapter completed!
