Wei and Jin cooks

Goldman Sachs said: "Not everyone can redeem it, but those who are sentenced to less than three months in prison, such as fighting, can be redeemed with money."

In fact, there has always been a law about using money to atone for sins, and this dynasty also has it.

However, Zhao Hanzhang was in a hurry to hire people, and in order to curb the sudden increase in security cases under her jurisdiction due to the war, she ordered that all laws on money atonement be cancelled, and those who should be beheaded should be beheaded, and those who should be exiled should be tattooed and sent to the army.

The order at that time only concerned serious criminals, in order to deter the repeated bandits in Yuzhou and the landlords and gentry who robbed refugees into slavery. However, the cancellation of money atonement was a big order without stipulating details.

This allowed people like Zhou Wenshi, who was sentenced to ten years in prison for fighting, to be detained in prison. In the past, he could have used money to atone for his crime.

This will not only bring some income to the county government, but also reduce the pressure on the prison.

You must know that the number of cells is limited, and they have to provide food and accommodation for those who live in them. Some of them have permanent residents, and they also have to prepare uniforms, which costs a lot of money.

A lot of rich people have been arrested recently, but none of them are serious crimes. Goldman Sachs thinks it can add a few details, such as how much ransom should be paid to get out of jail for fighting; how much ransom should be paid to get out of those who quarreled and humiliated...

Even driving fast on the street, violating curfew, driving in the wrong direction, being naked in public, etc. can all be redeemed with money.

Most of the people who violate these laws are wealthy people, so they can be fined almost every time, and some cells can also be emptied.

Zhao Ming thinks Goldman Sachs’ idea is a good one, but this order was given by Zhao Hanzhang. To add details, she needs her approval and order.

So Zhao Ming mentioned it when he went to have dinner with Zhao Hanzhang at noon. Zhao Hanzhang nodded after thinking about it, "Yes, but what crimes are redeemable and what crimes are not redeemable must be well stipulated. The amount of money and food required must also be clearly determined, and let the county magistrate Gao Write an official document and submit it."

Zhao Ming nodded and saw Zhao Hanzhang holding a letter in his hand. Just by looking at the envelope, he could see that it was Zhao Zhongyu's handwriting.

He only glanced at it and then looked away, but Zhao Hanzhang had already noticed. She handed the letter to Zhao Ming with a smile and said: "This is a letter from my uncle. Your Majesty wants to sacrifice to heaven during the summer solstice. At that time, the princes and governors from all over the country will I want to go to Yuncheng to pay my respects, and..."

She raised her eyes to look at Zhao Ming, raised her lips slightly and said, "Let's discuss the important matter of moving the capital together."

Zhao Ming: "...The emperor wants to move the capital back to Luoyang?"

Zhao Hanzhang nodded.

Zhao Ming was speechless for a while, "Then...you agreed?"

Zhao Hanzhang smiled slightly and said: "The key lies not with me, but with Gou Xi."

Gou Xi will definitely not agree.

Zhao Ming didn't want to agree. Zhao Hanzhang was far away from the emperor, so the situation was still controllable. It could be seen that most of her thoughts now were on stabilizing Yuzhou and Sizhou and developing the economy of the two places. Even if she occasionally wanted to regain lost territory, that would be In the name of Dajin.

Once the emperor returned to Luoyang and Zhao Hanzhang became the "regent", even if they wanted to develop smoothly, the situation would not allow it.

Let’s not mention the various new laws and regulations she has added in the past two years. Although she also selects talents recommended by herself or others, the policy of selecting people based on their qualifications has long been in name only. In the three years she has been in power, Yuzhou There has never been a custom banquet;

Now she hires people mostly from talent recruitment examinations.

She employs people regardless of gender or family background. Once the emperor returns to Luoyang, these matters will inevitably be brought up and discussed repeatedly.

Zhao Mingguang thought with his toes and knew how chaotic the situation would be. Zhao Hanzhang was used to giving orders. Could she accept so many people telling her what to do?

Occasionally her decisions were opposed by them, but she would always coax them to agree. But if it were the ministers in power, would she coax them?

Zhao Ming knew her best, but she only coaxed them because she was willing to do so. If she didn't want to, many people would have been killed for opposing policies in the past two years.

Otherwise, how could she cancel the policy of atonement with money?

In the past two years, have there been few people sentenced to death for kidnapping refugees, killing people, invading land, etc.?

She did not plunder or kill the rich to gain wealth like other generals, so the people at high and low levels were full of praise for her and praised her for her benevolent heart.

But since he noticed that she had great ambitions, Zhao Ming noticed that she had a strong personality, decisive actions, and very strict laws. No, it should be said that she was very strict with her superiors and very lenient with her subordinates. She was quietly arranging her own system. , a dull knife cuts flesh, nothing more than that.

Although it hurt, the pain was not obvious, and it would slow down from time to time. She would also give people candy, so people who were slow to react wouldn't care.

By the time it is discovered, the knife edge has been fatal, and there is no longer any strength to resist, and possibly even no strength to struggle.

Nowadays, all the officials in Yuzhou and Sizhou are appointed by Zhao Hanzhang after seeing them one by one. They are united and will not publicize it even if someone notices it.

But the courtiers are different. Everyone among them has different positions. Regardless of whether they can detect Zhao Hanzhang's intentions, once they find it painful or feel that they are not getting any benefits, they will definitely object or want to return to the past. If they make a fuss like that, she Can you continue to cut slowly with a dull knife?

With her temperament, when she gets angry, she might just pick up a knife and chop people like melons.

Therefore, Zhao Ming did not agree with the emperor's move back to Luoyang. This was not only for the good of Zhao Hanzhang and Yuzhou, but also for the good of the emperor and courtiers.

He didn't want to see Dajin bleed into rivers of blood due to internal fighting again.

He thought for a while and then said: "The patriarch mentioned that your majesty has contacted several generals in the Gou family army in private, and they are also willing to be loyal to your majesty. In that case, why don't you help the emperor to get rid of Gou Xi's control and take charge of his own affairs?" Yuncheng matter?"

Once the emperor has tasted the feeling of being truly the master of his own country, will he still be willing to return to Luoyang and become Zhao Hanzhang's puppet emperor?

Although it is a delaying tactic and will cause serious consequences, it is still better than intensifying the conflict now.

Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows at Zhao Ming, picked up the teapot, poured him a glass of water, and said with a smile: "Uncle Ming, do we have some understanding?"

She thought so too.

New news came from Yuncheng, and Gou Xi was addicted to sex again. He was considered useless. It's a good thing when her opponent becomes stupid, but Gou Xi is not only her opponent, but also her ally. The biggest rivals between them are Liu Yuan and Shi Le.

As the saying goes, don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs.

Liu Yuan and Shi Le are both god-like opponents. Gou Xi was originally a god-like ally, but now he has become like a pig. Such allies must be replaced quickly.

The emperor could barely be a qualified ally, so she wanted to change.

This is killing two birds with one stone.

But the operation was too difficult, so she had to take her time.

Some words cannot be written openly on the letter, they can only be understood. Otherwise, who knows whether the letter will be lost or seen by a third person?

So Zhao Hanzhang first wrote a note to the emperor, saying that she would definitely participate in the Summer Solstice to worship heaven, and then wrote to Zhao Zhongyu, saying that as ministers of the Jin Dynasty, they should pay attention to the emperor's concerns.

After two and a half years of correspondence with Zhao Hanzhang, Zhao Zhongyu had been able to keep up with her rhythm and could barely understand her. So he read her letter over and over again and vaguely understood her plan.

She wanted the emperor to seize Gou Xi's power.
