Chapter 237 Playing Hard to Get

"Your Excellency has always been an honest and upright official. It is impossible for Wei Tongpan to take advantage of the opportunity to hold you hostage."
"So, it seems that Judge Wei wants to wait until you leave the capital, then win over some fence-sitters, so as to learn from your wisdom, first gain a firm foothold and then gradually seize power... Well, what I mean is to gradually achieve the public's support."
After following Sun Shaozong for so many days, Lin Delu didn't learn any other things, but he did develop the habit of analyzing everything first .
He frowned and thought for a while, then continued, "It's not difficult to find some trivial evidence against the officials below, but I'm afraid it will arouse public anger, which will end up being more trouble than gain."
"Besides, if Judge Wei sets this precedent, you can follow the same prescription after you return. The officials below who are smart enough should understand this."
"So after thinking about it, I'm afraid that the only way he can go is bribery."
After reaching this point in his analysis, he secretly glanced at Sun Shaozong's face, and saw that he was sipping his tea leisurely, without revealing any sign of emotion, which made him feel very depressed.
To be honest, leaving aside the opportunity to make merit and the future, the days of living in fear under Sun Shaozong were far less relaxing and comfortable than when he was hanging out with Liu Zhizhong.
Of course, if Lin Delu really had to choose between comfort and a future, he would still grit his teeth and choose the latter.
However, he could not find any "wind direction" on Sun Shaozong's face, so he had to follow the established rhythm and continued: "In my humble opinion, we might as well take the initiative - didn't the adults say a few days ago that they wanted to catch a few typical cases? It's a good time to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys..."
"inappropriate."
Sun Shaozong finally spoke up, slamming the colorful chicken cup on the table, shaking his head and saying, "If I had stayed in the mansion, I would have killed the chicken to scare the monkey, not to mention killing the chicken to scare the monkey!"
"But since I'm about to leave the capital for official business, I can't act hastily. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, I'm afraid I won't even have time to remedy it."
After hearing this, Lin Delu bowed and said, "I am sorry for my lack of consideration, Your Excellency."
As he spoke, he habitually looked at Sun Shaozong's face and asked, "Then according to your wishes..."
Sun Shaozong did not speak immediately, but turned the "Dou Cai Chicken Cup" playfully, until he had completely scanned the pattern on it, and then he suddenly uttered two words: "Decentralize!"
Lin Delu was stunned and said, "Delegating power? You...are you going to delegate power to Wei Tongpan?!"
"That's right."
Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "He used this trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, isn't it because I have run the Criminal Law Department like an iron barrel, and it is really difficult to start? In this case, I will help him before I leave."
Then he asked Lin Delu, "Have you drafted the rules for rectifying discipline that I asked you to do?"
"I have drawn it up, I have drawn it up!"
Lin Delu hurriedly said, "I was just about to ask you to take a look, and I happened to run into you..."
"Send it to Wei Tongpan immediately for review, and tell him that I have to leave Beijing for official business in the near future and cannot take charge of this matter, so I entrust him with full authority to handle it."
"this……"
Lin Delu was a little dumbfounded. In addition to "rectifying discipline", this charter was also intended to punish a few officials who secretly betrayed.
If we really hand over this charter and this power to Wei Ruolan, wouldn't that be giving someone an advantage?
By then, Wei Ruolan won't need to use threats or inducements at all. As long as she strictly disciplines them according to this regulation and shows a little bit of closeness, I'm afraid many people will come to her immediately!
But based on Lin Delu's understanding of Sun Shaozong, he would never make such a stupid move - could there be some murderous intention hidden in this?
But this charter was drafted by Lin Delu himself, and he knew exactly what effect it would have...
Just as he was puzzled, he heard Sun Shaozong say, "If Wei Tongpan is not satisfied with anything, you can change it according to his wishes."
Do we have to make changes according to Wei Ruolan's wishes? !
This is not enough to describe as giving someone a handle, it's simply holding the sword upside down!
But seeing that Sun Shaozong had an unquestionable look, Lin Delu had no choice but to obey the order.
So after hurriedly returning to the East Courtyard, he took out the "Discipline and Discipline" charter and went straight into Wei Ruolan's room.
Although Wei Ruolan has not been able to fully consolidate her power since she took office, she has hired many more advisors than Sun Shaozong.
Some were familiar with criminal laws, some were good at arithmetic and accounting, some were good at writing official documents, and there were even two veteran officials who were recruited from the Ministry of Justice and specialized in investigating and solving cases!
All these people tied together amount to as many as seven or eight people, so Wei Ruolan basically just "rules the country with ease", and he only needs to keep the general direction steady - of course, he is currently controlled by Sun Shaozong, and there is no general direction he can control.
But on this morning, Wei Ruolan got the news from Han Anbang that the plan of "luring the tiger away from the mountain" had been accomplished, and she was immediately overjoyed.
He first thought about how to win over those ignorant minor officials after Sun Shaozong left Beijing, and then began to fantasize about how to retaliate and humiliate Sun Shaozong after completely marginalizing him.
Just when I was about to have a cerebral orgasm, I suddenly heard a lawyer outside reporting that Lin Delu came to visit.
Wei Ruolan's face immediately darkened, because the person who was least cooperative with him these days was Lin Delu - although Zhao Wuwei was a bit arrogant, he was just a small captain of the police and was not worthy of being called a "human" in Master Wei's eyes.
Although she felt disgusted, Wei Ruolan did not refuse Lin Delu the door. She just used the excuse of being busy with work to make him wait outside the door for a quarter of an hour longer.
After Lin Delu entered the room, he bowed respectfully, then took out the "rectification" charter, presented it with both hands and said, "Master Wei, this charter was originally given by Master Zhizhong. After I finished drafting it, I wanted to present it to Master Zhizhong for review. But Master Zhizhong said that he would leave Beijing for business in a few days and asked me to hand over this charter to you for review."
Wei Ruolan sat behind the desk with an arrogant look on her face. She did not wait until Lin Delu had finished speaking before she nodded slightly, signaling the lawyer who was listening to take the charter and place it respectfully on the desk.
The Criminal Law Department's rules for rectifying discipline? !
Originally, Wei Ruolan just glanced at it briefly, but when he saw the content on it, his eyes suddenly lit up. He hurriedly held it in his hand to read it carefully. The more he looked, the more ecstatic he felt, because to him, this thing was like pie in the sky!
But after the ecstasy, it was replaced by confusion and vigilance.
It is possible that pie falls from the sky, but it is unbelievable !
Just because he has to leave Beijing on business?
impossible!
This is impossible!
There must be something fishy about this charter!
Thinking of this, Wei Ruolan's eyes turned fierce, and she asked in a deep voice, "Sun Zhizhong asked you to bring this charter over, but what else did he say?"
Lin Delu said respectfully, "Reporting to the judge, the governor also said that if there is anything unsatisfactory in the regulations, you can modify it."
return……
And let me modify it at will? !
When Wei Ruolan looked at the charter again, she began to struggle .
Although this matter is very likely a trap, if I can resolve the risks, it will be of great benefit to the idea of ​​undermining Sun Shaozong!
Should we take this risk?
