Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

Chapter 452 The Law
"That's good!" Lin Nanzheng said honestly.

"That's right! Don't talk about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, we will punish others in our hearts according to the law." Han Qinhu echoed the words.

"The Han Dynasty introduced the 'Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Principles' into the law. In order to prove their orthodoxy, they tried their best to deify themselves and talk about it. This caused serious damage to social fairness and justice." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with stern eyes and said, "For example We are familiar with the crime of cover-up, where parents and children are not allowed to report crimes, and husbands and wives are not allowed to report crimes, which has brought great obstacles to timely solving the case and on-site investigation." Blinking his eyes, he said, "There is also the deceitful 'first request system. ', if officials with a salary of more than [-] shi in the Han Dynasty commit crimes, those who can plead guilty will have their punishment reduced!"

"What?" Chen Zhongyuan jumped up at the case and said angrily, "Why!" He said with a dark face, "just now Li Xiaolan said it was fair and just, but she was afraid that the punishment would not be punished by the nobles. If the penalty can be reduced, then can you also use money to atone for your crime in the future!"

"Isn't it a common phenomenon in the last years of this dynasty? Selling officials and nobles, killing people as long as they have money, they don't have to pay for their lives." Ye Yunyu snorted coldly and said coldly, "The children of officials, the children of nobles, the law is empty in their eyes."

"Confucianism, which emphasizes the privilege of the law so much, abuses the idea of ​​benevolence. The fairness of the law has suffered a devastating blow. At the same time, it has also caused officials not to be as serious and responsible as the officials of the Qin Dynasty. Because they don't have to bear the corresponding Responsibility, it can be said that the law has seriously degenerated." Hong Lianshuo said calmly, looking at them with dark eyes.

Ye Yunyu looked at them lightly when she heard the words, and said, "What you said, the real harsh punishments are closely related to the Confucian ethics. For example, disrespect and bullying the emperor are all death sentences. Talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality, in fact Are you just as honest as they advertise?" Pursing his lips, he said, "The key is that it is difficult to determine the authenticity of these charges. It is hard to tell whether they are intentional or unintentional. If you say you have it, you have it. If you say you don't, you don't. You can make a fuss about words to turn right and wrong into black and white. Many crimes that could not be killed in the Qin law, in the laws of the future dynasty, as long as there is a little bit of 'loyalty and filial piety', they will be executed with a swipe of the pen. It is better to be wrong Killing will never let go. In history, there are all kinds of copying and beheading, and most of the Yi tribes are related to this."

"No need." Hong Lianshuo heard a word and said.

"Yes! Don't talk about evidence, maybe there is!" Ye Yunyu nodded hurriedly.

"Use the method of labeling to eliminate those who threaten your status and consolidate your status." Hong Lianshuo said with a cold snort, "especially using the method of indiscriminate use."

"The Qin Dynasty was the Yi family, and the Zhu Jiu family began in the Han Dynasty." Lin Nanzheng glanced at them with his phoenix eyes and said, "The scope has been expanded."

"If you don't tell me, we really don't know."

"Uh-huh!"

Jiang Shuisheng looked at her very curiously and asked, "Ms. Hong, you have said Qin Lv so well, but why did the Qin Dynasty exist for such a short time, and why did the common people rebel?"

"That's right! That's right! I was still thinking about Wanwanshi, but Qin Ershi died in the end."

"From what you said, Qin Fa isn't that bad!"

"On the contrary, it's fair."

"But why did Han Gaozu sit in the world?"

"It's very simple! Because the people of the six countries could not accept the first unification, and the nobles of the six countries are still there." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with raised brows and said, "Besides, after Qin's unification, the interests of many people were affected. Those who move on the same track are the aristocrats, the same books and texts are for the interests of literati, and the unified currency is for merchants. No one has yet accepted the idea of ​​​​great unification.”

"Legalism has seriously damaged the interests of the entire gentry class." Ye Yunyu looked at them calmly and said, "Punishment cannot be punished for the gentry. After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, it doesn't matter whether it can be done or not. On the surface, they treat everyone equally."

"Some are too radical to lead to their demise. We should take it slowly and take our time. However, the feudal system of the Han Dynasty coexisted with the system of prefectures and counties, and the interests of many people have been preserved, so it will last for a long time." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep black eyes and said, " This method can only conquer the world, but cannot rule the world. Because people are not spinning tops, they need to rest and recuperate with the people, and the original intention of the policy is good, but it takes time to digest it.”

"It's just that the Qin Dynasty didn't have time. To be precise, Qin Shihuang died too early." Ye Yunyu stared at them with dark eyes and said.

"Qin puts too much emphasis on the law. He thinks that if there is a law, everything can be solved. He even includes morality in it, so indifferent and without a trace of humanity." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with dark eyes and said, "This Whether it is living or doing business, in every aspect, the details of behavior are also subject to the law, and I really wish to stipulate which foot to step first when entering the door. If you make a mistake, it will be against the law!"

"The law is too strict, so serious that the people can't live without it." Ye Yunyu looked at them deeply and said.

"It was commented in "Salt and Iron Theory": Qin law is proliferated in autumn tea, but nets and fats." Lin Nanzheng looked at them with phoenix eyes and said, "This law is as dense as a scorpion. Qin law pays attention to small mistakes and heavy punishments." , I don’t even dare to do murder and arson.”

"It's the other way around! Shouldn't you be punished for a big mistake?" Li Shuangzhu said doubtfully.

"That's right, it's written like this in the Qin law." Lin Nanzheng looked back slightly, and then said, "This historical book records that people wearing prison clothes can be seen everywhere in Qin. Prisoners can be seen everywhere in the market." prison."

"At the market?" Ding Yougen asked puzzledly, "How are you imprisoned?"

"The ground is a prison." Lin Nanzheng said, his eyes falling on him.

"Qin Lu's strictness is different from other dynasties. For example, if you beat your parents, it's over. It's unfilial. Regardless of the reason, it's dead." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep and honest eyes and said, "while Qin Lv will only be judged as tattooing on the face. "

"But not all parents in this world are worthy of being parents!" Hua Sijin said when she heard the words, she felt deeply.

"It doesn't matter, the law is the law, and if it is written like this, it must be strictly enforced." Ye Yunyu said helplessly.

"The harshness of the Qin law is more reflected in the strict aspect. The law is the law that cannot be touched at all, and it cannot be changed because of personal feelings. This is not only for the common people, but also for the officials." Hong Lianshuo's deep and upright eyes looked at them and said.

Lin Nanzheng looked at them lightly with his phoenix eyes and said, "In Qin, there are only two things you can do, farming and fighting."

Jiang Shuisheng smashed his mouth and said, "No wonder everyone hates Shang Yang. He was torn apart by the car. He offended him from top to bottom."

Chen Zhongyuan looked at them with big eyes like copper bells and said, "No wonder the inaction in the early Han Dynasty was praised so much."
