5days ago traverse Novels 2
Kaifeng Prefecture Office is in the southwest of the inner city.

Guo Shao arrived outside the mansion and called a big drum at the door, which was said to be a drum for grievances, but he had no grievances and only took out famous posts and asked the officers to send them in to report to the officials.

People like Guo Shao who carry a large group of light cavalry attendants and ride good horses can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people.

The officers will naturally take famous posts and ask the officials.

After a while, a group of officials suddenly saw them coming out. General Guo came here, and there were some mistakes and some mistakes... A red-robed official bowed deeply, bent over and spoke, wishing he could kneel down to Guo Shao.

Please, please sit in the seat!Another old man looked at Guo Shao in awe.

Guo Shao's identity is indeed not low, General of the Guards.

But Kaifeng Prefecture is also a majestic place under the feet of the emperor. Just as the general arrives, he will not receive such courtesy at all.

Guo Shao suddenly felt very uncomfortable, but when he saw his respectful look, he truly realized the subtle changes in just a few days.

A group of officials greeted each other. Guo Shao took two followers into the gate in a swaggering manner and turned around and said: I just ask Huang Binglian, the Left Officer, for some reason. Don’t mobilize others like this.

Huang Binglian!A high-ranking official called out.

At this time, a square-faced middle-aged man walked up and bowed: What instructions does Marshal Guo have?

Guo Shao waved his arms to everyone and said: Office hours are all gone.I only talk to Huang Tui.

Huang Binglian's position is not very high, but his demeanor is more appropriate than other officials. He looks neither humble nor arrogant. He said politely: General Guo asked him to go to the official's signing room to discuss in detail.

please.Guo Shao is not arrogant either.

A group of people entered a simple and old room and sat down. Guo Shao asked his followers to guard the door.Watch the tea!Huang Binglian shouted.

When the officers brought the tea, Guo Shao didn't drink it, and waited for the mistress to go out.

He silently looked at the furnishings on the table. The bright red tablecloth seemed to have a lot of blood sprinkled on it, as well as the king's decree, seals, red pens and some miscellaneous things.

Huang Binglian said: The emperor gave the king's order and placed it on it, so that the officials and others would never dare to forget their heavy responsibilities when they decided the case.

Guo Shao thought about it again before he spoke: When Huang Prosecutor asked about the case, he has always been impartial and law-abiding?

Huang Binglian said seriously: Since he is an official and holds the right to live and kill the people, he will naturally do his best to be strict and unbiased. If he always judges the wrong case, he will be mediocre; but if he accepts bribes and abuses the law for personal gain, he will be greedy.These two principles are a taboo for officials when the government is in a clear and clear manner, and harm others and yourself.

Guo Shaopin said: Huang Promoter is neither mediocre nor greedy, otherwise the envoy of Wang Shumi would not recommend you to investigate the case of Zhao Sanlang's assassination.

Whether it was investigating Zhao Sanlang's case or going to the palace to serve the former emperor changing clothes a few days ago, the officials spoke impartially. In fact, this was the case, so they had a clear conscience.Huang Binglian hurriedly said, "The lower-ranking officials are neither mediocre nor greedy, but they dare to recognize them. The great-grandfather, grandfather, and father above have been officials for several generations. The lower-ranking officials have read the files of the ancestors' worries, and the family's autopsy, inference, and verification. The lower-ranking officials and coroners dare not perfunctory me, so they are not mediocre. It is also because the Huang family has accumulated fertile land and vast houses, and the family has a solid foundation. The lower-ranking officials look down on those common things and do not care about greed against their conscience.

Well said.Guo Shao said, it is a waste for Huang to be a promoter to be a promoter.Today, our dynasty still follows the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, which is to govern people; those who rule people first have the authority to govern officials, and their power lies in the hands of officials. If officials are not selected well, the rule of the country will be abandoned.The Great Zhou is in urgent need of talent like Huang Tuiguan.

Don't dare or dare.Huang Binglian said that the subordinates were just asking about the case.

Guo Shao glanced outside the door and lowered his voice: But...Will Huang Promoter know the right and wrong and accept the justice whenever he asks a case?

Huang Binglian pondered suddenly and observed Guo Shao quietly, touching his chin with a speechless beard for a long time.

He finally said: I can't guarantee... After saying that, when some people can completely control our official positions, life and death, how many people can not surrender?Unless the court has an iron rule, other powers cannot interfere with the prosecution, no one who is going to be this official will dare to say that it is absolutely clear that it is right or wrong.

Guo Shao said seriously: It makes sense, Huang Tuan is very insightful, and the reason for inference is very advanced.So many people can interfere in the justice of Kaifeng Prefecture, so how can they talk about the justice of the law?The law can only be effective for the people.

Huang Binglian said: That's right, how many people are there in the world who believe in the truth? How long can they be an official?My great-grandfather wrote in his letter to the family. When the case was investigated to a certain extent, the methods of inference and verification could not be used, but the way of dealing with the world was used. He did not talk about the way of dealing with the world, perhaps he allowed his descendants to have their own awakening.

Guo Shao sighed: It is indeed a pity that no one can guarantee the way of heaven and justice.Perhaps when sages formulated these worldly rules, they also saw the huge loopholes in the rules; therefore, they had to write many books and classics of sages, hoping that those who hold great power could cultivate the "original nature of human beings is good". Only when the people above had a benevolent and righteous heart could officials manage government fairly.

Huang Binglian praised: General Guo is a military general who is strong in governing all troops, but he has a lot of experience in the art of civil governance, which is very respectful to the officials.

I just talk about it casually, just laughing at it.

Guo Shao pondered for a long time before saying: There is a case, I want to ask Huang Promoter to investigate.

Huang Binglian asked: What kind of case?

Rape and murder case.Guo Shao looked at his face and said.

Huang Binglian said with a serious look on his face: Every year, there will be many such cases in the two counties of Kaifeng Prefecture, which is not surprising.But the most important thing is who is involved in the case...

Guo Shao said in a deep voice: The rebel criminal Zhao Pu confessed that the Zhao family raped and killed his brother and sister-in-law.

Huang Binglian's face twitched slightly, and he thought about it: It happened two years ago. Now the deceased's body has long turned into bones, so it is not easy to investigate.

Can it be found out whether he killed or died of illness through the corpse?Guo Shao asked.

Huang Binglian said: It’s hard to say.If it is poisoned or injured by a device, traces are left on the bones, and as long as there are clues, they can be tested and inferred.But as long as the bones are not damaged, the skin and blood and flesh are completely gone, there is no way to detect it... However, if someone has a proof, there may be some solutions.

I see.Guo Shao said, why don’t Huang Promoter take over this case? First check the truth, and then let’s discuss and then record the file?

Huang Binglian frowned and did not make any noise for a moment.

Guo Shao said: In many government offices such as Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice, some officials are old and unable to bear the position of corpses... Or let's investigate it secretly first, so the yellow official does not need to sign and detain the file by himself.He said calmly again, I just want to know the truth, otherwise some secrets would be buried in the ground.

Huang Binglian hesitated for a while and said: Why don’t you give up and give it a try first.
