Chapter 640
Chapter 637 : There is a shrew at home
Xiao Rui didn’t know the ups and downs of Qin’s harem, anyway, he had no intention of inserting willows. As for the success or failure, it depends on the hard work of the maiden.
There is still more than a month left before the new year, Xiao Rui is still not idle, and there are still many things he needs to do.
In fact, there are not many things. It all depends on the people who do things. If you want to do things in your heart, it is a national event. If there is nothing in your heart, then it will be very leisurely.
In fact, Emperor Xia had left Xiao Rui with a good foundation. The court was stable and orderly. Xiao Rui could proceed at this pace without any problems. But who calls Xiao Rui a traverser, always thinking of using his own knowledge to transform this country and the world.
For example, during this period, Xiao Rui often stayed with Song Ci, Shangshu of the Criminal Department, because Xiao Rui wanted to perfect Daxia’s laws.
It wasn’t that Daxia’s laws were bad. They were all laws handed down for hundreds of years. They have their own value, but there are still limitations. The thing that makes Xiao Rui the most uncomfortable is the trick.
Daxia has a vast territory and is close to Kyoto, and may not dare to engage in detrimental activities, but what about remote places? It’s not uncommon.
For the sake of his political achievements, the local commander cannot keep unsolvable cases in his hands, so as long as the suspect is caught, he will first interrogate the three-piece suit, the fingerboard, the palm mouth, and the water and fire stick.
Most officials still want to catch the murderer, but what the officials learn is something that cares about the others. They will manage a place when they are successful. It is not the material for trial and solve the case. When they encounter a group of unemployed subordinates, they will arrest quickly, and solve the case even more. Become a whimsical.
What’s more, the current investigative methods are too rudimentary. They can only do autopsy, on-site inspections, or look for witnesses. There is no blood DNA test, no monitoring, and it is indeed difficult to track down the murderer.
Therefore, Xiao Rui wanted to improve the law, and at least reduce the behavior of succumbing to tricks. At the same time, he also wanted to set up a professional academy to train experts in catching, arranging, and solving crimes.
The college provides excellent craftsmen for the Ministry of Industry, so it is natural to set up an investigative college to train investigators. The first step is to start with the Criminal Prosecutors Division. The trained commissioners enter the Procurator’s Division to take up their posts and mention a state’s penal and prison cases. After the prosecutors are trained, the second step is to train the crime detection commissioners of each province and separate the crime detection from the power of the prefect, so that professional people can handle professional matters to ensure professionalism.
When it is possible in the future, there will be special case investigators in the county or even in the state capital. This will not only ensure the success rate of the investigation, but also avoid wronged crimes by enemies.
Of course, Xiao Rui also understands that it takes a lot of experience to do this. The Great Wall was not built in a day, but as long as you work hard, you will eventually achieve it.
Song Ci’s wish was that there would be no unjust, false or wrongful cases in the world, so after listening to Xiao Rui’s goal, Song Ci patted his chest to ensure that he would accomplish this goal in his lifetime.
Xiao Rui gave Song Ci full responsibility for the improvement of the law and the construction of the investigative college. He only needed to take money from his own money. Fortunately, Xia Huang left a small treasury for him before he abdicated, otherwise he would really be stretched.
So far, Xiao Rui has made some adjustments to the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. In the next step, there will be the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Officials. The pace will not be too great, and Xiao Rui’s ideal system will be gradually completed. .
For example, in the imperial examination system under the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, the selection of officials for Daxia is a major event, and it cannot be limited to the Four Books and Five Classics. The system of the Ministry of War also needs to be changed, as well as the way in which officials assess the performance of officials.
If we say that a country is a bucket, and each department is the wooden planks that make up the bucket, what Xiao Rui has to do is to increase the length of the wooden planks, and the height will be increased across the board. When all the wooden planks are taller, there will naturally be more water in full bloom. .
However, the imperial examination system and the evaluation criteria for officials cannot be accomplished overnight. It must be done slowly, and rushing may cause turmoil.
……
“Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Tang Wang is already outside the hall!”
Xiao Rui was reading, and Wang Dazhi came to his side and said softly.
“Invite him in!” Xiao Rui sent someone to invite Xiao Yan, asking him to do something important.
Soon, Xiao Yan entered the hall.
With a haggard face, a shaggy beard, and untidy clothes. I haven’t seen him for more than ten days. How could Xiao Yan be so bear-like!
Xiao Rui shouted with a face-to-face, “Xiao Yan! You know you are guilty! Come to meet me, just like this, what a decent dress!”
Who knows, Xiao Yan waved his hand, walked straight to the chair and sat down, and then said to Wang Dazhi: “Grandpa Wang, go and get my king a cup of tea. I need to drink the eight-treasure tea that your Majesty drinks, and my king has to make up for it!”
Xiao Rui was speechless. This servant really didn’t see the outside. Some time ago, he was frivolous when facing the saint, and was bombarded by impeachment by the Imperial Court’s impeachment. The impeachment memo was half a meter high. He still went his own way. In his words, he came to see Brother Seven, not his Majesty.
Forget it, based on these words, Xiao Rui endured it.
After giving Wang Dazhi a wink, Wang Dazhi led the others in the hall back, and Xiao Rui asked again, “How did you make this look?”
Xiao Yan cried and said aggrieved: “Don’t mention it, there are two fierce wives at home, life is really miserable. I went to drink tea and happened to ran into two little girls who are my loyal readers, so I chatted with them a few words, who Zhi was heard by two shrews, when I go back, hey…”
Upon hearing that this was the case, Xiao Rui also said that he could do nothing. Once Kong Xun’er and Nalan Yanran were jealous, their force value could soar to the top grade. Just look at Xiao Yan’s miserable appearance now, and you would know how miserable they were being manipulated.
“Seven brother, borrow some money from brother!” Xiao Yan begged.
Xiao Rui shook his head and said, “No money! Besides, how much money did you borrow?”
Xiao Yan got up and walked to the Long Case, and saw a piece of Xiao Rui’s handle. It was a master sculpture and it was invaluable. Hey, this guy took it directly into his arms, and then stopped asking about borrowing money.
“Hey…” I met such a rogue brother What can Xiao Rui say!
At this time, Xiao Yan asked: “Seven brother, what can you do if you come to me?”
Xiao Rui nodded and said, “There is indeed something serious. I heard that your “Journey to the West” is finished, and the response is good. Are there any new themes next?”
When Xiao Yan heard what he was writing, he immediately said with joy, “My minister is thinking, should I write “Journey to the West Prequel” or “Post Journey to the West”! It should be a big hit too!”
“It’s not good to eat like this, you should get out of the story of Journey to the West!” Xiao Rui reminded.
Xiao Yan was immediately distressed, “But the minister doesn’t know what to do!”
Xiao Rui said, “I have a new subject. Would you like to try it?”
“What theme?” Xiao Yan suddenly became interested, “It seems that Brother Seven came to me for this matter!”
Xiao Rui nodded and didn’t hide it. He really needed to use Xiao Yan’s reputation to write a book.
