When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 634 Meng Jiang
Under the strict household registration system of the empire, the so-called rivers and lakes have long since disappeared. With the targets locked, the imperial army in Dongjun quickly arrested all the target people and put them in the prison in Dongjun.

In the meteorite prophecy case, more than a thousand people in the entire eastern county were arrested and imprisoned. Within the legal framework of the empire, what awaited them was the death penalty, and the core figures among them would even be sentenced to death.

Ying Zheng didn't care about what happened to these people. Although the lives of more than a thousand people seemed very precious, they were nothing compared to the soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms who died in the Seven Kingdoms Unification War.

If Yingzheng is only calm about this case, then the people in Dongjun are angry. It has been a long time since the Six Kingdoms were destroyed. Gradually, what they see are changes in the world, changes in their own lives, healthier bodies, more stable social order, more harmonious interpersonal relationships, more convenient clothing, food, housing, and transportation, family harmony, and the health of their elders. , the juniors are happy.

For them, the Six Kingdoms is just a concept that exists in memory, but what they come into contact with in their lives is a real existence.

Therefore, after knowing that someone used the meteorite to curse the emperor and the empire, all they have is anger, because at this time, their fate is already connected with the fate of the emperor and the empire, and the curse on the emperor and the empire , also a curse on them.

Facing such people, they have only anger and hatred, but no sympathy.

Therefore, even though the biggest massacre in East County was about to happen since the end of the war, no one thought it was too cruel.

It's just that there are some exceptions to everything, such as a commoner woman who appeared in front of the palace at this time.

"Girl, you'd better go, this is not the place you should come." The guard guarding the palace gate looked at the pretty girl in front of him and said earnestly.

"Why can't I appear here? Could it be that His Majesty's people can't stand in front of the palace? Is there such a provision in the law?" Facing a golden army armed with armor, the girl did not have the slightest timidity. look.

But under the puzzled eyes of the soldiers, the girl shouted loudly: "Meng Jiang, the daughter of the people, sued the governor of Dongjun County for his cruel law enforcement, implicating innocent people."

"You..." Hearing what the girl said, all the guards in front of the palace gate changed their colors.

Sue Zhang Han, governor of Dongjun County?Who is Zhang Han?In the entire state of Qin, there are quite a few high-ranking officials at the county guard level. What's more, among the more than [-] counties in the empire, Dongjun can rank in the top five no matter what. The governor of the big county, who can become the existence of Jiuqing after entering Xianyang, was sued by a commoner, and a girl?
Such a thing?For a moment, the eyes of many soldiers fell on the girl. Under the eyes of the soldiers, the girl who called herself Meng Jiang showed no fear or timidity.

For a while, no one dared to drive away this seemingly reckless girl.

"Zhang Han, let's take a look, someone wants to sue you, the sheriff of Dongjun County." Ying Zheng put down the document in his hand, and asked his servant to send it to Zhang Han who came to the palace to report on his duties.

Meng Jiang?Common name.When Zhang Han was looking at the documents suing him in amazement, the name 'Meng Jiang' echoed in Ying Zheng's mind. Although this name sounds a bit strange, if you add a 'Meng Jiang' after it When the character for 'female' becomes 'Meng Jiangnu', the meaning is completely changed.

The whole story has become another kind of more interesting story.

"What do you think about this matter?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han whose expression was constantly changing due to the content of the document, and said leisurely.

"Your Majesty, although her relatives were arrested and about to be sentenced to death because of the Fanjiazhuang incident, it was because of His Majesty's kindness that she was able to send this document to His Majesty at this time. Excessive cruelty, it was only because her relatives were involved in it, as the governor of Dongjun County, I don't think the word law enforcement is cruel." Zhang Han put down the document in his hand, and his expression changed just now. has become stable.

"Standing determines attitude." Ying Zheng said flatly.

"Indeed." Zhang Han nodded.

"However, since someone said that she has grievances, I can't turn a blind eye to it. I will leave this matter to you. Use procedural justice to persuade her to accept the current result." Ying Zheng said.

"Yes."

Soon, the matter about the woman Meng Jiang was quickly investigated. Her grandparents and the grandparents of the main culprit Fan's young man were aunt cousins, so her grandparents happened to be on the list. Fortunately, the blood relationship in her area was already very close. It was not until she was far away that she was arrested, but her grandparents were thrown into prison.

It was precisely because of this that there was a scene in front of the palace.

"This woman is quite brave." Seeing what Zhang Han reported about Meng Jiang, Xue Nu couldn't help agreeing a little more with that bold woman.

"It's very brave." Ying Zheng said, "It's very elegant like that little girl back then."

"Your Majesty, who are you talking about?" Xue Nu pretended to be puzzled.

"A little girl named Xue Nu." Ying Zheng explained in cooperation with Xue Nu.

"Is there?" Snow Girl asked innocently.

"A girl who dares to go from Yan to Qin alone, can't she be called brave?" Ying Zheng asked rhetorically.

Under Ying Zheng's gaze, Xue Nu's face flushed slightly. As the protagonist of Ying Zheng's words, shyness is inevitable.

"Your Majesty is going to deal with this matter?" Xue Nu took the initiative to change the subject.

"Her appearance reminded me of one thing." Ying Zheng said.

"whats the matter?"

"Some of the punishments in the law are too harsh. Now that the world is almost stable, it is time to make some changes in some laws. The appearance of Meng Jiang is a good opportunity." Ying Zheng said.

"Opportunity?"

"That's right, use Meng Jiangnu to amend the law with morality." Ying Zheng thought about it.

In another time and space, there is a story about Tiying saving her father, why can't there be a story about Meng Jiangnv saving her grandparents now?
Using traditional morality to promote the amendment of the law can most arouse the emotional resonance of the world, and can also unite the hearts of the people to the greatest extent.

As the lord of an empire, both majesty and kindness are essential.

"Did Your Majesty think of another plan?" Xue Nu asked curiously.
