Chapter 795 Interpretation
Yang Reform felt quite emotional, whether this matter is big or small, although it is not very common, it is definitely a representative thing.The point of this matter is not who gets the wages, but it involves the moral and ethical issues of this society and this era, which is reflected in this case, that is, the issue of children suing their parents or parents suing their children.

In ancient times, when parents sued their children, it was a serious crime of treason, regardless of whether it was justified or not. If parents went to the Yamen to sue their children, the children would be beaten first, and even the officials would lose their officials.

In this case, the young woman's mother-in-law used this as a threat to take away the wages that should have belonged to the young woman, but the young woman had nothing to do,
This matter is actually a conflict between the new moral ethics and the old moral ethics.It's a small matter, but it is definitely representative, or in other words, it is something that is weather-beaten.

If there is no need for change in this era, then it can be dealt with by the law extended from the old ethics, and the young woman will definitely not be able to get what belongs to her.There is no need for change in this era, and there will not be so many women working outside. The probability of this kind of problem will be much lower, and the officials will just follow the old rules and judge at will.Yang Reform didn't need to bother with this matter.

But this era is an era that needs to be changed. The laws extended from the old ethics and morality will definitely conflict with the new moral and ethical values, but the contradiction between them must be resolved.To put it more simply and avant-garde, Yang's reform needs to re-"legislate" and "interpret the law". What needs to be updated and changed is not only the content of morality and ethics, but also the law that extends from it.

In this era, on the ethical level, there is a set of "monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons and sons". This set of things is suitable for the productivity of this era, and it is very useful in maintaining the stability of this era. .

But obviously, this set of things can no longer be used in the world that is about to be changed by Yang Reform. It would be ridiculous to apply the monarch, minister, minister, father and son to the industrialized society.Could it be that the machine turns a few more times when it meets the father?When you see your son coming, stop turning around a few times?This is obviously impossible.

The set of "monarch, minister, minister, father, son and son" has obviously fallen behind with the advent of industrial civilization, and the laws that have been extended with it must also fall behind.

Yang Reform is trying to promote things such as "people's livelihood and civil rights". These things, whether good or bad, are at least more suitable for the era of industrial civilization than the set of "monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons and sons". With the changes in the development of productive forces, things like people's livelihood and civil rights have come along with the times. Of course, this is the ethical and moral category that Yang Reform chose for the Ming Dynasty.

People's livelihood represents people's right to life and survival, which is the most basic right; while civil rights are a broader right, such as the right to wages, such as the right to education.

Although Yang Reform has been talking about how and how he wants to reform, how and how he wants to change, how and what, but in reality, encountering such a thing is enough for Yang Reform to have a headache.Even in the 90s and [-]s of the [-]th century, there were still many such things. It can be seen that the power of tradition is strong, and reform is really not as simple as talking about it. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the idea of ​​using violent revolution to promote the times It is not unreasonable that transformation and social progress are easier. In that case, everything is really simple and clear, not as cumbersome as myself.

Governing a large country is like cooking small fish. Yang Reform feels that he is no longer cooking small fish. This is controlling material changes at the cellular level.

"Then what do the Qing family think of the sentence?" Yang Reform asked.

"...Reporting to Your Majesty..., this..." Liu Zongzhou said rather embarrassed.If this matter is judged according to the normal rules, it is estimated that the child will have to be punished first, and even the woman in red will not be able to please.This matter is like what he said, even if there is an emperor's woman to come forward, this matter should not be brought to the court. If it is brought to the court, the situation will be completely changed.It's not unreasonable for the woman's mother-in-law to threaten her with this.

Yang Reform had already received a report on this matter, and he had been thinking about this issue all the time. Seeing Liu Zongzhou in trouble, he knew why Liu Zongzhou was in trouble.

Regarding the solution to this matter, Yang Reform has also thought a lot about it. He feels that the only way is to re-interpret the law by himself, saying that Yang Reform does not have such a strong tone and ability to make legislation. In this matter, even Yang Reform did not dare to say that he could fight against thousands of years of tradition on his own.Under this pressure, even with his current ability and prestige, Yang Reform had to weigh it.

"Since it is inconvenient for the Qing family to speak, let me tell you, how to judge, let me do it according to my wishes..." Yang Reform said very neatly.Yang Reform doesn't mind using his imperial power to re-interpret the law on this matter. This is exactly his right as an emperor, especially the right that a powerful emperor should have.

"Uh..." Liu Zongzhou looked at the emperor in surprise. This was indeed beyond his expectation. Could it be that the emperor's ordination was really because of that woman?Didn't the emperor always act after making a plan?Why are you so emotional today?

"This matter should be divided into two parts. Regarding wages, I have always advocated the principle of self-reliance. Whoever works will reap the principle. Whoever does the work, the wages will naturally be paid to whom. There is absolutely no reason for workers to deal with this wages, and there is absolutely no reason for others to collect their wages after working..." Yang Reform said, this one is not too difficult, and it can be regarded as the basic understanding of society.

"...Another thing about this matter is the problem of disobedience caused by wages. I have to say that I, Ming Dynasty, made the crime of disobedience extremely serious, in order to teach the people to respect and honor the elders, so as to prevent Disobedience occurs, but my Great Ming's "Da Ming Law" is not a weapon for others to blackmail. If you are disrespectful of the old and want to blackmail people with the crime of disobedience, I have to say, I'm afraid he made a mistake Abacus..., if the threat fails and you really bring it to the Yamen to sue, then just ignore him..." Yang Reform originally said it aggressively, but at the end of the speech, his words softened completely.When the new era has not come and the old system has not gone, Yang Reform still lacks the confidence to do such unnatural things.The word filial piety runs through the history of China, how difficult it is to change this history.

"Uh..." Liu Zongzhou was dumbfounded. The emperor's words were really unexpected, and he ignored him when he came to sue for disobedience. This was unprecedented!
Yang Reform was also blushing all over his face. This was probably the most outrageous sentence Yang Reform had uttered since he became emperor. The feeling that he had already brewed, but in the end, it still withered.

"...Your Majesty..." Liu Zongzhou was dumbfounded. Although he was old-fashioned, he also knew that he could be regarded as the emperor's man. Even if the emperor did something out of line, he should defend the emperor instead of singing against the emperor.

"... Let the Qing family handle this matter in this way. That old woman is just blackmailing the young woman with disobedience. The Qing family must beat the young woman first, or convict the young woman first. To retry the case, you can try the case first, and then deal with the problem according to the conclusion. If you are really disobedient and unfilial, you will be given a heavy sentence, or a heavier sentence. It's..." Yang Reform said with some helplessness.An era is indeed not so easy to reverse!It is not the first time that Yang Reform has encountered such setbacks. Although Yang Reform has overcome one difficulty after another, and overcome one difficulty after another, every time he encounters new difficulties and new difficulties, this helplessness, The powerless frustration still made Yang Reform very depressed.

"...Uh..." Liu Zongzhou didn't recover for a while.

"In this matter, the Qing family can handle it according to my wishes, but don't make it clear that it is my will. The Qing family is the actual adjudicator and has greater discretion, so let's figure out a way... ..." Yang Reform said feebly.

"...The minister leads the decree!..." Liu Zongzhou thought for a while, and still agreed, he was considered the emperor's man anyway, and now that the emperor wanted to try the case in this way, he couldn't refute the emperor's intention, and he was also contradictory.

"...Your Majesty, I am sorry to forgive you, but because of the woman in red?..." Liu Zongzhou regained his composure, and asked through gritted teeth. The emperor in his eyes was always wise and mighty, and he would not do it for a woman, or for a woman. What absurd thing did the woman outside the palace do, but when he came back to his senses, the emperor seemed absurd...

"...No, if I were for her, I wouldn't let her come out to do this..." Yang Reform said very simply, feeling very depressed.Yang Reform is telling the truth. He has hesitated for a long time to pick out this hornet's nest. Beijing City is a city with relatively concentrated industrialization, and the workers and citizens are developing faster. development of.

"Ah!...Your Majesty, then..." Liu Zongzhou was at a loss, the emperor actually denied it, and it wasn't for that woman?What else did you say that you won't let her out for her?Could it be that the emperor deliberately asked the woman in red to come out to cause trouble?Looking at the emperor, it doesn't seem like a lie!But...he really couldn't understand this matter, and Liu Zongzhou was at a loss.

"It's nothing, why did you do this matter, you might as well think about it after the Qing family goes back, and go into details, but, things must be done according to my orders..." Yang Reform said.

"The minister accepts the order!" Liu Zongzhou accepted the order in a daze.
