Chapter 282 The Godfather of the Ming Dynasty is online: Yan Runwu!

In fact, the imperial court was rectifying the administration of officials.

Many times, it is just as Yan Shifan said in Wanshou Palace that reform is the ancestral law.

Officials are required to meet the standards in people's livelihood and fiscal and taxation.

There are also more regulations on the daily lives of officials.

For example, officials in various departments and offices in the capital are required to complete government affairs and have the most basic attendance requirements. At the local level, there are also requirements for efficiency and fairness in judging cases.

However, all of these are covered by people's livelihood and fiscal and taxation requirements.

Usually no one pays attention to it.

but.

This does not mean.

The rules that were established become abandoned rules.

Once there is a need.

It can still be used to talk about something.

"time."

"Place."

"personnel."

"Tell the truth, don't lie, be lenient to those who confess, be strict to those who resist."

bass.

The rear hall of the Censorate headquarters.

It was nightfall.

The lights came on, illuminating two figures.

Gao Hanwen folded his arms and leaned back in his chair.

Opposite him was Pan Yunduan, a Jinshi who was observing government affairs in the Censorate this year.

Between the two people, there were two teacups filled with tea leaves, with no water in sight.

Pan Yunduan yawned.

He has been trapped in this room for a whole day.

I glanced out the dark window.

Pan Yunduan opened his arms and looked at Gao Hanwen with contempt.

"hungry."

"Can I go home now?"

Bang!
There was a loud bang.

Gao Hanwen had a square face, and with his long beard, he looked very majestic when he slammed the table and glared.

Pan Yunduan, however, was not afraid at all.

He even raised his head and glanced at Gao Hanwen.

Gao Hanwen's eyes were filled with anger: "Pan Yunduan! You are breaking the law!"

Pan Yunduan crossed his legs and said with a smile, "It's not what Shangguan meant. What law did I break?"

Gao Hanwen's eyes flashed.

You know this person's identity clearly.

but.

so what?
He said in a cold voice: "The court is currently rectifying the administration of officials. In addition to people's livelihood, taxation, criminal law, case judgment, and government affairs, various ministries and local government offices also have to take roll calls and other examinations. As a Jinshi this year, you should have been on duty at the Censorate yesterday, but you were absent from work without reason and stayed in a place of entertainment for a day and a night. You ignored the grace of the emperor and neglected your duties. The officials of this department ordered me to interrogate you, but you disobeyed orders and refused to admit your mistakes. You have committed a serious crime!"

"Shangguan finished speaking?"

Pan Yunduan replied indifferently.

Light and airy.

It seemed that he had not realized the slightest bit about the accusations made by the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate.

Gao Hanwen's face was tense. "It's just that the emperor's grace is great, and the officials of this department have also said in advance that as long as you admit your mistakes, confess your faults, and confess the relevant inside stories, you can be punished lightly. You are the son of an official, so you should know this."

In fact, it was just a day of skipping work.

Even though Pan Yunduan was not yet an official official of the court, strictly speaking he was just an intern in the Ming Dynasty.

But it was just a minor mistake. If he could admit it and explain the circumstances, the Censorate would not hold on to it.

After all, no one is perfect.

It is not a serious crime of corruption and harming the people.

however.

Pan Yunduan, however, had a sarcastic look on his face. He stood up without saying a word and walked to the door.

He turned around and looked at Gao Hanwen who was looking at him: "In this case, I admit my mistake and will not make the same mistake again. May I ask, sir, can I go home for dinner now?"

Talking.

Pan Yunduan reached out and tried to open the door.

however.

There was a clinking sound outside.

The door is locked from the outside!

Moreover, after the sound was heard outside, two figures flashed and swayed.

"Captain of the Imperial Court?"

Gao Hanwen smiled and said, "Pan Yunduan, if we don't make things clear today, there is no way you can leave this door and this room."

at last.

Pan Yunduan, who was originally nonchalant, had a flash of panic in his eyes.

But soon, it was replaced by anger on his face.

Pan Yunduan walked quickly to Gao Hanwen and raised his hands.

Bang!
He slammed his hands on the table.

"Gao Hanwen!"

"You mud-legged bastard!"

"Just because you think you can point fingers and dictate things to me?"

"You are just a small official of the fourth rank, Zuo Qiandu Yushi."

"How dare you investigate me!"

"What's wrong with me drinking and having fun? You are just a piece of dirt-legged bastard. I'm afraid you won't know which side the Rouge Lane in Beijing opens to in your lifetime!"

"Just because you are a mud-dwelling guy like you?"

"How dare you show off your power in front of me? How dare you talk to me about the laws of the country?"

"Do you know who my father is?"

Pan Yunduan cursed loudly, then put his hands on the table, leaned forward, and looked at Gao Hanwen with sarcasm in his eyes.

Gao Hanwen, however, remained calm.

even.

He looked over with a calm gaze.

It was like a punch on cotton.

Pan Yunduan snorted coldly: "My father is the Minister of Justice! He is in charge of the criminal law of the country! How dare you say that I broke the law?"

Gao Hanwen uttered a soft "oh" and then held the pen, ink and notebook that he had prepared long ago.

"Well, your father is the Minister of Justice of our dynasty. He knew that you neglected your duties and indulged in extramarital affairs on your day of duty."

"This matter has been recorded."

"Please continue."

He was as calm as a deep pool.

But the more he did this, the angrier Pan Yunduan became.

He immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand to snatch the book from Gao Hanwen's hand, then tore it apart with both hands, and then stomped heavily on it.

"I'm gonna fuck you!"

After saying that.

Pan Yunduan had already made a move to beat Gao Hanwen.

just.

crunch.

The chair moved.

A hint of sarcasm finally appeared on Gao Hanwen's calm face.

He stood up slowly.

Pan Yunduan in front of him looked down with clenched fists, then gradually stood up straight, and then had to raise his head stiffly to look at Gao Hanwen, who was two heads taller than him.

"Ok?"

Gao Hanwen looked puzzled and turned his neck.

Muscles and joints crack.

He looked down at Pan Yunduan who was clenching his fists: "Do you want to attack me?"

The room was silent.

But there seemed to be a fearful sound of swallowing saliva.

Pan Yunduan took two steps back.

Gao Hanwen smiled coldly.

"There is a saying that goes, knowing the law and breaking it is a heavier crime."

"Pan Guanzheng..."

"Think twice."

After saying that.

Gao Hanwen walked to the locked door and knocked gently a few times. The door opened.

Several officers with short rulers on their waists were guarding outside the door.

"Captain of the Imperial Court."

Gao Hanwen nodded, walked out of the house, and then looked back into the house.

"Lock the door."

"Keep an eye on it."

“Don’t make your own decisions.”

Done.

He shook his head and walked into the night.

Door.

Locked in again.

After a while.

A loud and angry roar came from inside the house.

A few night birds were startled and flew high.

The next few days.

There was a heated discussion in the court about what had happened within Yan Shifan and the Yan family, and whether Yan Shifan and Zhang Juzheng, the two people who called for reform, would unite next.

And amid this heated discussion.

The news that the eldest son of the Minister of Justice, who was observing government affairs in the Censorate and had not returned home for many days, also spread in a small circle.

first day.

Paine didn't take it seriously, thinking that his son had just entered the court and was concentrating on his work.

The next day, the son still didn't come home.

Paine was a little confused, but thinking that his son was grown up, it didn't matter.

Day three.

Paine panicked.

We are all in Beijing, so there is no reason for me to not go home for three days.

Immediately.

Paine finally took the initiative to inquire about the news.

The son was derelict in his duty because he did not take a day off and had no leave, so he secretly recruited his friends to do promiscuous things.

Young people are fond of romantic affairs.

This is normal.

Paine didn't think it was a big deal, but he just did it without any excuse.

Paine wanted to open his son's head to see what was inside.

Just no matter what.

Paine still went to the Censorate in person, wanting to use his reputation as the Minister of Justice to have a talk with Ouyang Bijin, the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate.

But when he arrived at the Censorate.

Ouyang Bijin didn't see it.

Paine saw Gao Hanwen, who was in charge of this matter.

Gao Hanwen, who came from a Hanlin family and used to work in the cabinet, only had one sentence to say.

"The country is currently in the process of rectifying the administration of officials. Does Minister Pan intend to break the law and use public resources for personal gain?"

Just this one sentence was enough to push Paine back.

Subsequently.

Seeing that the Censorate was not letting the matter go, Paine began to panic.

It was just a small matter of absenteeism.

They are all officials in the court. They should give face to others and forgive others when they can. It would not have come to this.

There must be someone behind this.

Paine immediately thought of Gao Hanwen who had pushed him back.

Immediately, I thought of the Yan family.

So the Minister of Justice was worried and anxious to save his son, so he rushed to Xu's house.

Only halfway there.

Paine stopped the carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, Paine frowned.

"The old man's son just died, and now..."

"It's not appropriate to go there..."

Muttered something.

Paine looked outside the car and said, "Go to Yanfu Lane! Quickly!"

Yanfu.

There is a tea room in the front yard which is used for receiving guests.

It was dark all around.

Only a candle was lit, reflecting all the objects in the room onto the wall.

On the tea table.

Insert incense to spread the fragrance, and a potted plant of small-leaf red sandalwood is lush and green.

Gurgling.

The mountain spring water outside the city has been boiled.

Footsteps came from outside.

The door was pushed open.

Yan Hu walked in and looked around.

Then he whispered, "Master, the Minister of Justice is here and wants to see you."

Yan Hu felt that his eldest master was truly a god.

How do you know that the Minister of Justice will come to your house today?

Isn’t the Ministry of Justice at odds with its own people?

In the main seat behind the tea table, Yan Shaoting sat sideways in a chair, lowered his head slightly, and glanced over.

He didn't speak either.

Yan Hu took a look and walked out.

Not long after.

Paine's voice had already come through.

"Oops!"

"Today I am so lucky that I can finally benefit from it!"

Shouting words.

Paine walked in hurriedly from outside.

Looking at the environment in the side hall, he was stunned for a moment.

"Meow……"

A cat meows.

A black-bodied, white-clawed lion cat that had been hiding behind the door seemed to be surprised. It let out a low meow and jumped into Yan Shaoting's arms.

then.

This lion cat walking in the snow looking for plum blossoms called out to Paine a few times in Yan Shaoting's arms.

Yan Shaoting looked down at the lion cat.

Then he glanced sideways at Paine.

He smiled.

"The presence of Minister Pan is truly an honor to our humble government."

"It's just that the stubborn thing is sitting in my arms and I can't get up. I hope you can forgive me."

Paine looked at the strange house and the even stranger Yan Shaoting, and thinking about the purpose of coming to Yan's house today, he could only smile and wave his hand.

He said, "It's not like Runwu actually likes it as much as Xuanzong."

Emperor Xuanzong.

Besides being the Cricket King.

He is also a well-known cat lover.

In the past, Emperor Xuanzong gave Yang Shiqi a painting of wealth in a pot with a calico cat on it.

Yan Shaoting smiled and said, "Please take a seat, Minister Pan. The water in the mountains has just boiled. Let's taste the new tea from Hangzhou this spring."

Talking.

Yan Hu had already walked in and started making tea for the two of them.

Paine looked at the master and servant, as well as the lion cat walking in the snow looking for plum blossoms.

Paine hesitated: "Actually..."

Yan Shaoting glanced at the other person.

He smiled in his heart.

He immediately spoke.

"It seems that Minister Pan is in trouble?"

"If it is convenient, Minister Pan, please tell me. I will do my best..."
