Chapter 458 Zhou Pingan’s stance
Chapter 458 Zhou Ping'an's position
"Report to Your Highness, today I have sorted out the files of the Ministry of Justice in the past decade and found that although the Ministry of Justice has many problems, its basic functions and duties are still there. Although there are many omissions in the case of the file, the situation is not too bad. Therefore, I requested Your Highness to allow me to reverse the case in batches and concentrates and selectively."
Zhou Ping'an was allowed to enter Xizheng Hall, and the first sentence he said made Li Chen raise his head and shift his eyes from the book to Zhou Ping'an.
"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you are Zhou Ping'an."
Li Chen smiled and said, "If you reverse the case, you will reverse the case, but what does your choice mean?"
Zhou Ping'an replied calmly: "Some cases can be reversed, some cases can be reversed or not, and some cases cannot be reversed. What Weichen wants to review is the fourth type of case that must be reversed."
"The so-called cases that can be reversed mostly involve officials, either in the current dynasty, or have been transferred or retired. These people are in office because of a series of cases of reduction, aggravation, or even harm, such as favoritism, abuse of power, and human relationships, but they are not involved much, and these can be reversed."
"The so-called "can be changed but not turned over" is similar to the previous one, but because of the age of age, it is necessary to turn over, the person involved is no longer alive, or there is no advantage, so it is "can be changed but not turned over."
"The so-called unreversible cases are mostly unjust cases, but the person involved is either at a high position or a gang case, and is very involved. Once investigated, it is easy to encounter great resistance and a large number of people will suffer. But in reality, the affairs of the person who is wronged have become a certain fact. It is not beneficial to pay a huge price, but they are full of trouble. They can only make mistakes. This is unjustified."
Listening to Zhou Ping'an's report, Li Chen remained silent and said, "Then what about the case you want to review?"
"These cases are mostly party disputes in the officialdom. Most of the cases selected by the weak ministers are unjust cases created by the cabinet or the cabinet. The persecuted officials are either dismissed or demoted, but they are still alive. If these people can be fought against by the cabinet, then there is something available. It is beneficial for the Eastern Palace to overturn the case."
Li Chen said lightly: "Since you are the Minister of Justice, then it is your job to preside over the law of the empire fairly and selflessly. Since you have grievances, why don't you treat everyone equally and make the wronged people clear, but you will still have different levels of grievances?"
Zhou Ping'an still looked calm and replied: "Your Highness has not ascended the throne yet. The primary purpose of doing anything is to consider whether it is beneficial to Your Highness, and then to consider fairness and justice. If Your Highness ascends the throne in the future, then the wealth minister will naturally consider the issue from the perspective of national interests and the country."
Zhou Ping'an's words are suspected of being usurped.
But Li Chen didn't care.
"I am approved. You can go and do it. If you need any help, please contact the people from the East Palace. If you have any questions, please contact the East Factory directly." Li Chen said slowly.
"I'm going to leave."
Zhou Ping'an bowed and quietly retreated.
After Zhou Ping'an left, Li Chen looked down at the memorial in his hand. This was a memorial from the Censorate Censor Zhou Ping'an, who was the newly appointed Minister of Justice, investigated the old cases that had been settled, but did not handle the various cases that were piled up at present, which led to the need for official documents approved by the Ministry of Justice in the country. The case was delayed, and the old accounts were filled with panic. He asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to order reprimand.
He picked up his pen and wrote four nonsense words on the newspaper. Li Chen threw the newspaper aside and never read it again.
