Chapter 1060: Unifying the Inspection Institute

It was the first time in his life that Sheng Hong became the protagonist in the court, but he was not very happy, and even felt cold in his heart.

At that time, more than ten people, including the Taiwan Remonstrance officials and other hall officials, participated in him, and dozens of people seconded, and he felt that the sky had collapsed. He was not punished in the hall, so he returned home angrily.

He went straight to Wang Shi's courtyard and broke out directly: "You did a good thing, you are going to harm the Sheng family, harm Hualan."

Wang Shi didn't understand: "What are you talking about, official? What did I do to harm the Sheng family and harm Hua'er?"

"Printing money, printing money." Sheng Hong patted the table angrily, "You are a dignified official family, and you dare to privately release printing money. Today in the court, more than ten people participated in my Sheng family, your mother's family, and that Kang family, and dozens of people seconded. The ministers accused, wanting to ask the Emperor to strictly investigate and handle it, and wanted to participate in Ziyan, saying that he was not virtuous and wanted to grid his position as Left Military Inspector.

The Emperor ordered people to summon Ziyan in the court. Now Ziyan is being questioned by the Emperor and the ministers in the Secretariat. What did you do? Ah? I have been cautious for more than ten years to reach my current position. Ziyan has a bright future and has the talent to govern the world. Hualan and Shulan are pregnant and about to give birth. If both of our families are demoted at this time, can Hualan still have a life?

Your dowry had a lot, and the Sheng family has operated well in recent years. The eldest branch relied on Ziyan's prestige, and the business went smoothly, and they sent us a lot of money every year. Was your spending ever short? Ah? Still need you to go to release printing money? Wang Ruofu, how dare you?"

After being told a lot by Sheng Hong, Wang Shi finally understood the seriousness of the problem. She didn't say a word, knelt down directly, hugged Sheng Hong's thigh, and said pitifully: "Official, I just didn't want to sit and eat, and subsidize the family, official... It was my sister who incited me, I didn't participate at all. It was just giving money to her, collecting some interest, and then distributing it to her and my mother's family to subsidize the family. It was all her handling, official..."

"You take the money of my Sheng family to subsidize the Kang family and your mother's family?" Sheng Hong stared, "Subsidizing the mother's family is understandable, you even subsidize the Kang family? Your surname is Kang?"

Wang Shi had already wiped her tears, but she didn't forget to change the subject: "Official, releasing printing money is just a small matter, at most it's a fine. How did it make such a big noise this time?"

"Is it your sister who told you again? A fine? That is a stain on the official body, and there is no way to advance!" Sheng Hong kicked Wang Shi away, sat at the table drinking water, and rubbed his head painfully.

Wang Shi leaned over and said: "Official, this must be because Ziyan has been catching people on a large scale recently, which has caused dissatisfaction among other officials. If you ask him to stop catching people and release some people, wouldn't it be fine?"

Sheng Hong took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart: "Go to the ancestral hall and kneel."

"Official..."

"Get out!"

Wang Yan smiled and poured tea for the angry Sheng Hong, saying, "It's just a small matter, Father-in-law doesn't need to panic. It's just releasing some printing money. Mother-in-law was also bewitched by that Kang Wang family, and there's nothing major. Just be safe and secure in the future. Hualan, go home and see your mother. At this time, I'm afraid she's still hungry?

Go back and talk to your mother well, and let her keep some distance from her mother's family and the Kang family in the future. Let your mother pass the word to both families that I take care of the Sheng family's face, so let's forget it this time, and let them put away their little thoughts. If there is another time, I will have to take action for self-protection.

Bring more people and be careful on the road. Come back tomorrow. Pay attention to your mood, don't move the fetal gas."

"Thank you, husband."

Hualan's watery big eyes had been holding back tears. Hearing Wang Yan's words, she hurriedly stood up with her big belly and walked out, greeting people to set up the carriage and set off...

Sheng Hong didn't care about Hualan's affairs and asked anxiously: "Ziyan, what did the Emperor and the ministers say?"

"They didn't say anything."

"They didn't say anything?"

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "At that time in the Secretariat, the Emperor looked unhappy and opened his mouth to question. I said the Emperor's face was ruddy... Pang Ji stopped me, forced me to express my position, Kongmu Zhou... wanted me to be iron-faced and selfless, and take the responsibility of handling this matter myself. I said...

Later, after leaving the Secretariat, the Emperor said that the priority of the country is stability. I said the people are stable, and the country is stable. I also said that I confiscated 200,000 guan recently, and if I confiscated all the rich in the capital, I could confiscate tens of millions of guan. I also said that my Great Song has raised scholars for a hundred years, why worry about no one to be an official. The Emperor didn't answer, just asked me to look at his body, opened a new prescription, corrected a set of body-strengthening kung fu I created, and asked me to come back."

Sheng Hong was pleasantly surprised: "Could it be that the Emperor meant that this matter should be left alone?"

"That's natural. But it's just a temporary measure. If I catch again, I will definitely have to make trouble again."

"Still catching? Ziyan..."

"Father-in-law, don't say more. If I don't catch, then I'm afraid of others. If I'm afraid of others, why would others be afraid of me?"

Wang Yan waved his hand and said, "Father-in-law, rest assured, I have a count in my heart. But the family still needs to be well restrained, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to take the Sheng family as a raft again. As for the Wang and Kang families, it doesn't matter. To tell you the truth, if it weren't for taking care of Father-in-law's face, I would have confiscated their homes and exiled them today. Mother-in-law's words they might not take seriously, Father-in-law should also talk to them well when you go back, so as not to look bad in the future."

Sheng Hong nodded and sighed: "The Wang family helped me a lot, but I didn't expect that it would decline in just a few years. The family members are not competitive, and they are involved in all kinds of business."

It is definitely not just those families who release printing money. To be honest, the good fields Wang Yan had in Yangzhou were also released by printing money. However, his interest rate might not be as high as the real printing money, but in fact, there is no difference, it is the same nature. Big households all have this routine, and they even oppress small and medium landlords, and the strong eat everything...

The next day, Wang Yan didn't take a carriage, just wore his official uniform, took Little Dongliang, and walked leisurely on the street, not in a hurry at all.

The attendance of the Inspection Institute yamen is the responsibility of the judge under him. And the attendance of his Left Inspector is the responsibility of other officials in Kaifeng Prefecture. However, because he is relatively special, if there is nothing special, he doesn't have to go to meetings, and even if there is no major event, he mostly lets petty officials send documents, and he won't go to the yamen of those superior officers.

One is that the work of the Left Inspection Institute is saturated, and what is done is proper things, and all kinds of messy things are done by the Right Inspection Institute. The second is because he is not doing well, and everyone wishes he would die far away.

For others, not uniting with leaders is a taboo. But when it comes to Wang Yan, who he unites with is the one who has the big festival. The entire Kaifeng Prefecture yamen, including Lu Gongchuo, doesn't wait to see him...

There is another more important reason, that is, he has been conducting self-marketing. The half-hour time he swayed from home to the yamen, although people didn't dare to point at him, the discussion never stopped. Even those who were bold enough dared to come over and chat with him for a few words, asking about family and income, and caring about whether anyone bullied them, and telling others to find him if they were bullied...

So he arrived at the Inspection Institute yamen safely. Little Dongliang consciously ran to follow the catchers of the action group to do things. He is now considered a member of the helpers, but generally speaking, the arrest actions he participates in are organized by him.

Wang Yan just arrived at the official office and sat down, before he could drink a sip of tea, the judge under him walked in.

"Inspector, last night, a government official who had just been caught and had not yet been transferred to the Dali Temple escaped from the prison of the Right Inspection Institute, and two petty officials who returned to the case died, all of which were suicides. This is what the coroner said, but the subordinate doesn't believe it. So the subordinate brought people to find out the reason early in the morning, but was blocked by the Right Inspector."

"Is the case file there?"

"The case file is in my Left Inspection Institute. The people below are careful to guard the night, and no one can get in."

Wang Yan nodded: "Wait for everyone to come back, let them surround the prison of the Right Inspection Institute for this official, and interrogate them one by one from the prison warden to the prison guard below. Also catch the coroner who examined the corpse, and find out the reason for the matter, who released the person, who did the hand, who saw it, and make the evidence complete. Do you understand what I mean?"

The judge pondered for a while, and said uncertainly, "The subordinate lets the people below reveal to the catchers who are familiar with the Right Inspection Institute, let them expose the illegal things of the Right Inspector and the judge?"

Wang Yan was still smiling, picked up the teacup and drank tea.

"This subordinate takes his leave." The judge turned and left sensibly to arrange things.

This judge is still very convinced of Wang Yan, especially the position he is in is the most comfortable. He relies on the momentum of Wang Yan, the leader, and does not have to bear too many risks.

After all, Wang Yan is his superior, and he doesn't have too much backing, and it's useless to have backing. The one surnamed Zhang before didn't run away quickly. So he had to obey Wang Yan's leadership and follow Wang Yan's orders. Even if Wang Yan loses power in the future, the impact on him will not be that huge. Whoever is not convinced, try to work under Wang Yan, and see if he can't handle him to death.

But at the same time, there are good aspects under Wang Yan. Fox pretending to be a tiger is just one of them. More importantly, the political achievements are indeed bright, which must be good for future progress. And Wang Yan is indeed a good hand at making money, which is quite generous.

A small cafeteria was opened in the inspection institute yamen, with two meals at noon and evening every day, and meat at noon. There are also various bonuses and subsidies, such as being cut by someone when going out, which is directly three guan. Recently, the weather is hot, and the catchers are outside all day, and there are also high-temperature subsidy money. Part of the confiscated homes is also taken out to give everyone bonuses, and part is reserved as the private account of the inspection institute yamen.

He, the second-in-command judge, doesn't need to say more about the benefits. He once thought that if he worked under Wang Yan for three years, he could buy a small house in Bianjing City...

The second-in-command judges are like this, not to mention the catchers below. They have been really prestigious recently. In the past, they had to accompany the hooligan leaders to smile, but now no hooligan dares to jump in front of them, and even hide far away. The money is sufficient, and they take it with peace of mind, and the welfare treatment is also good.

One by one, they are loyal to their own inspector, going up the mountain of swords and down the sea of fire, saying who to handle, they handle who.

With such a team whose power is carried out to the end, Wang Yan's orders are naturally carried out sincerely.

That afternoon, the Left Inspection Institute went out in an empty nest. Catchers and helpers, more than 1,000 people, surrounded the prison of the Right Inspection Institute, took over the guard work of the prison, and the judge presided over the interrogation on the spot.

In this process, dozens of catchers from the Right Institute reported the illegal things of the Right Inspector and the judge to the Left Institute judge, and it also happened that a criminal official escaped from prison last night, and two petty officials were strangled to death, all of which were instructed by the Inspector and the judge.

The Left Institute judge didn't dare to make the decision, so he found the superior Wang Yan. Inspector Wang was selfless and loyal to the country, and directly ordered the arrest of the Right Inspector, and urgently notified the high officials of the government office such as the Kaifeng Prefecture power to know Kaifeng Prefecture and the Silu military counselor, and everyone sat in the hall to try together.

In the hall, the Right Inspector and the judge confessed to the crimes committed, but refused to explain who instructed them, and later transferred to the Dali Temple.

Lu Gongchuo, who knows Kaifeng Prefecture, appointed the Left Hall Signing Judge to concurrently lead the Right Inspection Institute. The Left Hall Signing Judge refused, recommended Wang Yan to concurrently lead the Right Institute, and the Silu military counselor and the government office mention seconded, and Lu Gongchuo agreed...

That night, Wang Yan gave instructions to the people of the Right Institute, just like when he took office in the Left Inspection Institute, and also asked them to make up for the money they corrupted in the past, as well as a confession bureau, and carry out the purification of the team.

The next day, Wang Yan presented an official document to the Secretariat, requesting the reform of the inspection institute.

The content is to merge the Left and Right Inspection Institutes, merge the military inspection shops, be in charge of public security, fire prevention, and bandit catching in the urban areas outside the Jingcheng, cooperate with the law division and other departments to carry out arrests and interrogations, and manage the prisons of Kaifeng Prefecture. Set up four branches in the east, south, west, and north, each with one judge and deputy judge to lead the branch affairs. The general yamen has one inspector, one deputy inspector, and two left and right judges to lead the affairs of the inspection institute.

The setting of the Left and Right Inspection Institutes is to avoid centralization. This position controls a lot of manpower and also has martial arts configuration, and it is necessary to divide power and balance. After all, this is Bianjing, the capital of the Great Song, and you cannot cultivate a person who holds thousands of armed forces and has great power. Such a person has a bad heart, or is corrupted, which is not too good for the Emperor, the ministers, and the people.

This is also the reason why the numerous military inspection shops in Bianjing City are held by the Imperial Guard. It is to gather strength to suppress if there is any sudden event.

Wang Yan's reform plan is relatively appropriate. Because he didn't touch the Jingcheng, let alone the inner palace, just the old city outside, and the expanded new city area. Inside the Jingcheng, it is still suppressed by the army.

At the same time, he further dispersed the power of the inspection institute. There are eleven leaders, and the branch yamen are also mutually restrained. Unless this person is very awesome, it is absolutely impossible to unify the will of the inspection institute. The leader is one aspect, and there are various low-level officials below, all of which need to be divided. But it also unified the inspection institute, which is convenient for the implementation of various affairs, and also more convenient for the fine management and control of Bianjing City.

Of course, this is the reason Wang Yan expounded to the superiors. His purpose is very simple, that is, to merge the Right Inspection Institute and expand his power boundary. What he said to the leaders is to prevent others from centralizing power, but now he is in power, and he is the one who centralizes power.

However, even if the reform proposal is not passed, it doesn't matter, it's just that the name is a bit worse, and the Right Institute still has to listen to him.

After the reform opinion was submitted, Wang Yan didn't wait for the summons, but the new Right Institute Inspector and judge were not appointed, so Wang Yan understood that Zhao Zhen still couldn't bear the money.

So more than half a month later, Wang Yan thoroughly purified the team of the Right Institute, implemented the same system as the Left Institute, and completely copied it, whether it was welfare treatment or helpers.

And then let them go out to carry out large-scale arrest activities according to the list he listed.

More than 2,000 people from the left and right institutes, under Wang Yan's dispatch, formed an efficient assembly line operation. Select targets, inquire about locations, arrest, confiscate homes, interrogate, and then take evidence to carry out arrests, confiscations, and interrogations of big households and lower-level officials. As for those in middle and high-level positions, they grasp evidence and do not move.

The officialdom is chaotic, but it cannot be chaotic from top to bottom. First handle the lower-level officials to stabilize government work, and then move the high-level officials, so the impact is relatively small.

But even so, Wang Yan doesn't think Zhao Zhen can withstand the pressure.

His strict strike was doomed to fail from the beginning. But it had to be done. After all, it was still a good thing that could be achieved in one fell swoop. The people's life was greatly relaxed, the official team was purified to a certain extent, a lot of money was obtained to enrich the unhealthy finance, and most importantly, Wang Yan's own prestige and influence were more powerful, and he also harvested a large number of supporters.

The officials and catchers under his direct jurisdiction, the helpers who had relatively decent work because of him, the officials who were promoted because of him, the people who were avenged because of him, and the people who felt the stability and peace of life for a short time because of him. Most of these people will be his supporters.

What is easily obtained will not be cherished, and those who have not seen the light will not be afraid of the darkness. But now, Wang Yan brought light to various groups, letting them know that they could have been better.

It could have been better, this is a very fatal idea, but it has been planted in the hearts of the people of Bianjing by Wang Yan and cannot be waved away...

The gangs to be struck have been sorted out by Wang Yan, and the manpower has been arranged, so Wang Yan is free.

This day, the Prince's mansion.

Wang Yan smiled and let go of Zhao Zongshi's wrist, nodded and said: "Not bad, the body is well raised, the medicine can be stopped, and the diet should be according to the recipe opened by this official. Physical exercise cannot be slacked off, and it must be practiced every day. After practicing this set of kung fu and not feeling tired, then change to the next set."

"Thank you." Zhao Zongshi smiled and arched his hands, "Inspector Wang is truly a divine doctor. The headache has indeed flared up less in these two months, and the spirit has also improved a lot."

"The Great General is still thinking too much, but you should indulge in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, or other items, as long as you are busy and invested in it, it will be fine. Looking at it this way, the saying of playing with things and losing ambition is not entirely true. It is not a good thing for others, but it is a good medicine for the Great General."

"It is good to play with things and lose ambition." Zhao Zongshi laughed, his body improved, and people were much more cheerful, not the short-lived depressed appearance before.

Wang Yan smiled and arched his hands: "Since so, this official will take his leave. I will come to visit the Great General another day."

"Since you have leisure, why not stay for a while? Eat some wine and talk."

"My wife is about to give birth recently, and I am worried in my heart. It is not too late to eat wine another day." Wang Yan looked at Zhao Yunrang on the side.

The old boy didn't feel embarrassed at all: "Production, I am the most familiar with it, how can it be done in a moment? Go, go, go, I will send you, I will send you out, is it okay?"

Wang Yan saluted Zhao Zongshi and turned to leave with Zhao Yunrang.

After turning a corner, Zhao Yunrang asked: "I heard that you went to the Secretariat last month and looked at the Emperor's body again. I don't know how the Emperor's body is? Is it healthy?"

"The Prince is making things difficult for this official."

"Wang Ziyan, you have been with me for four years, don't you know what I am?"

"I dare not climb high to the Prince. This matter is taboo. The Great General's body is healthy, which is a good thing. What is in the life will eventually have it, and what is not in the life should not be forced. And it is not the Prince who sits on that throne, why do you keep thinking about it?"

"I just care about the Emperor's body, how can I covet the throne?"

Wang Yan shook his head: "The Prince should not make things difficult for this official. If this official says it, and if the Great General sits on the throne, how can I, as a minister, trust this official? Prince, stay, this official takes his leave. Oh, by the way, the Prince is rich, don't forget to send some gifts to this official."

"Roll, roll, roll, still asking people for it?" Zhao Yunrang waved his hand impatiently, until Wang Yan disappeared, he shook his head helplessly, and turned back to look at his son...

Now in the Wang mansion, it is already in a state of preparation for war.

The female doctors and midwives transferred from Yangzhou, the wet nurses found by Wang Shi, and even Wang Shi has been guarding here during the day these few days, and the maids in the mansion are busy back and forth.

But they don't know what they are busy with, just know that it might not be good if they don't get busy...

Wang Yan entered the room. Hualan was lying on the couch, sweating profusely. The amniotic fluid had already broken, and now it belongs to the process of waiting for natural delivery, which will last for a long time. Hualan was sweating profusely, because she was afraid in her heart.

The sweat moistened her hair, forming strands, and her eyes were full of tension.

"Da Guanren~"

Wang Yan smiled and grabbed Hualan's hand, smoothing her hair: "Don't be afraid, your husband is a divine doctor, there is no problem. It's just that you have to suffer some pain, you have worked hard, wife."

"Not hard, I want to open branches and scatter leaves for the Wang family, waiting for descendants to fill the hall." Hualan smiled very sweetly.

Wang Yan smiled, turned his head to look at Shulan and said: "Shulan, you go outside. Don't be shocked when the time comes, and move the fetal gas. It's no big deal, don't worry."

Shulan nodded, said a few words to Hualan, and walked out with her belly held by a little maid.

"Has the husband thought about the generation?"

"I have thought about it, it is 'Wenwu Xingbang, Jishi Qiangguo, Tianyou Zhonghua, Wan Shi Yongchang', and the name has also been thought of, called Wang Wenhua, taking your Hua character."

"You can't name it, you have to name the milk name first, and it's good to name it when you grow up."

This is because the survival rate of children at this time is relatively low, even if it is a big household, it is the same, that is, the popular saying that has been circulating for thousands of years, the so-called "cheap names are easy to raise," which comes from this.

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Your husband is a divine doctor, my son will definitely be free from illness and disaster."

Talking and laughing like this, turning to the time of the child, Hualan experienced a pain and successfully gave birth to a baby boy, who is also Wang Yan's eldest son in this world... ===== CHAPTER 1061 =====

However, Wang Yan couldn't really not look at Zhao Zhen now, because Zhao Zhen had already mentioned Old Bao's son, which had been diagnosed by famous doctors in the world, including the Imperial Hospital, and all had been sentenced to death. Moreover, Wang Yan also paid more attention to medical treatment in the local area, after all, he himself opened a medical clinic. When he was in Hangzhou, he also treated some difficult and miscellaneous diseases, which were documented.

So Zhao Zhen was not asking him, but just letting him look, and he had no choice. This was not a light "shallow talent" or "can't see" excuse that could be fooled, but would instead make Zhao Zhen disgusted and affect progress.

So since he looked, he had to have a statement. It wouldn't work without one, and it would be trouble with one. So Wang Yan could only have a statement and could only accept the trouble.

Zhao Zhen was also sick and seeking medical advice, wanting a son crazy. But Old Zhao was quite good, not secretly pulling Wang Yan to look at him, but openly in the Secretariat, in front of the important ministers of the court.

Come to think of it, it would definitely be better to be secret. If Zhao Zhen didn't hold a grudge, it could save a lot of trouble. But in fact, this was impossible. Because there are no secrets in the palace, the illness seen today would spread all over the sky on the same day. The more private, the greater the trouble for Wang Yan. Relatively speaking, now like this, it was still a protection for Wang Yan...

Zhao Zhen looked at Wang Yan's elegant handwriting on the paper and sighed: "Minister Wang has a heart."

"I only hope Your Majesty will not blame me."

"If Minister Wang didn't say it, I would blame you." Zhao Zhen waved his hand, "Retreat."
