……

Bai Fu asked two questions: "Xiong Ba, if criminals are not punished, what is the majesty of Tang's law? Will the people dare to believe in the law in the future?"

Xiong Badou replied: "In addition to the law, there should be human kindness.

Datang has an amnesty every two or three years.Since there can be a day of amnesty, why can't there be a place of amnesty?
Not everyone in Pingkang Lane shelters, only fugitives who can be pardoned.

The underground gangsters will not take in the heinous people. In order to protect this lawless place, they will take the initiative to expel the felons.

This is also the reason why several gangsters want to eradicate Caiyi Club and transform the Colosseum. "

Bai Fu continued to ask: "Xiong Ba, even a fugitive who can be pardoned is still a criminal. If you set up a place outside the law, this place will become a safe haven for criminals. If things go on like this, Chang'an will become a city of crime."

Xiong Badou disagreed, and retorted one by one: "A fisherman will leave a mesh three fingers wide when he catches fish; a hunter will keep a wide net when he hunts. Leaving a way of life is the virtue of heaven.

To leave room for not killing them all is not aimed at the heinous people, but at those who violate the law slightly.

To govern Chang'an, we must proceed from reality, not just make moral articles.

Since Wu Zhao set Pingkangfang as an extrajudicial place, although Chang'an can't say that it doesn't close its doors at night and doesn't pick up lost things on the road, there has never been a large-scale incident of burning, killing and looting by rioters.

"All things carry yin and embrace yang, and the qi is in harmony." Just like the yin and yang fish in the Tai Chi diagram, there are black spots in the white fish and white spots in the black fish.

Light and darkness are not separate and diametrically opposed to each other, but two sides of one body, formed by the agitation of yin and yang to form harmony.Like sunrise and sunset.

In my opinion, the best way to govern is not to eliminate darkness, but to live with darkness.Darkness cannot replace light, but light should not be left alone.Like day and night. "

Bai Fu stared at Xiong Badou intently, and said quietly: "Your fallacies and heresies are treasonous! If you spread them to the court, you will be punished by beheading."

Xiong Badou had no fear on his face, and said with a sneer: "It is the truth of the world to be able to sing praises to the light, but also to tolerate the darkness, to be able to see the crisis amidst the blooming flowers, and to be able to go from the darkest moment to the bright world.

Disregarding the way of natural operation, disregarding the luck of heaven and earth, can only be wishful thinking.

The reason why Chang'an is Chang'an, the center of the world, and the temple of all nations is not because it is rich and prosperous, but because it is inclusive and inclusive.

Whether it's the blond-haired and blue-eyed barbarian from the Western Regions, or the dark-skinned Kunlun slaves in Nanyang; whether it's the grassland tribes with open folk customs, or the devout and rigid alien sects such as Wojiao, Nestorianism, and Manichaeism, you can find a place here. Discriminated against, live and work in peace and contentment. "

Xiong Badou was impassioned and eloquent.

As an official of the imperial court, there are some things that Bai Fu can't express easily, so Bai Fu didn't pick up, but changed the subject, saying: "How to transform the Colosseum?"

Xiong Badou said: "Reform the Colosseum into an arena, and gamblers can continue to gamble. The arena is used for competitive fighting between gladiators, but it is forbidden to fight between humans and animals. Gladiator fights, the outcome is determined by points, and killing is not allowed opponent.

Although not as bloody and exciting as before, it is worse than nothing.As long as no one dies, it can be converted from underground to above ground, as another form of gambling, openly operated.

In this way, gamblers can continue to bet for entertainment, casinos can continue to make money, and various gangs in Chang'an can participate in the training of gladiators and continue to make profits. "

Bai Fu said: "Why do you emphasize that Jianghu gangs train gladiators? Can't the government take in orphans?"

Xiong Badou shook his head, and said: "Any underground organization exists for its reasonable reasons.

Taking in and raising orphans requires a lot of money, and the government is unable to support them, so they can only let the orphans live on the streets and freeze to death in the wilderness.

Underground gangs can benefit from gladiator competitions, so they have the motivation to take in orphans and train a group of kung fu warriors.

The Tian Penglang you captured was born with a pair of fleshy wings on his back. His family thought he was a monster and threw him to the garbage dump on the street corner.He would be long gone if the underground gang hadn't discovered his potential.

As long as the Colosseum does not rely on killing to win or lose, underground gangs will not use extreme methods to train gladiators.In this way, although the existence of the Colosseum has disadvantages, overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. "

Xiong Badou spoke frankly and acted practically, which gave Bai Fu a lot of inspiration.

Bai Fu said: "Xiong Ba, after Chang'an was looted by Anlu Mountain, the people's livelihood was in decline. If you were Jing Zhaoyin, how would you govern?"

Xiong Badou laughed at himself, and said: "I'm a mere bad guy, and I'm good at catching thieves. Governing Chang'an? I'm not capable of that."

The two drank another drink, Bai Fu smiled slightly, and said: "Xiong Ba, you deal with traffickers and pawns every day, you deal with both black and white, and you are very familiar with the streets and alleys of Chang'an. Don't underestimate yourself, just talk about it."

Xiong Badou smiled indifferently, and said: "Lao Tzu said: Who can make Xu Qing calm when turbid? Who can make Xu Sheng calm and move?"

Doing nothing is probably the best way.

Let the rich have a sense of security and the poor have hope.The common people will be transformed without education, the people will be prosperous, and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty will be prosperous day by day, and the years will be rich and prosperous, and the years will be repeated.

If the court must do something, it is better to build a ladder. "

Bai Fu asked: "Oh? What kind of ladder?"

A gleam of light flashed in Xiong Badou's eyes, and he said: "The ladder of hope, the ladder of opportunity, the ladder of diving into the dragon's gate, and the ladder of ascending to heaven.

Don't live poorly because you were born poor.Not because the ancestors were slaves, but from generation to generation.

Taking the imperial examinations can lead to becoming an official, doing business can make a fortune, and doing farming can fill the barn with rice and the pen with cattle and sheep.

As long as the poor people have a way to leap to the dragon's gate and give them hope, they will work hard and seize the opportunity to leap.

At that time, the slums will also be able to produce virtuous ministers and famous generals, and the sons of poor families will also be able to become marquises and worship ministers. "

......

Several hours passed, and it was getting late.

Bai Fu got up, bowed deeply to Xiong Badou, and said: "Xiong Ba, I have benefited a lot today. Although many ideas are too unimaginable and deviant, they can be justified, and it is a choice.

I am also very curious, I have a close relationship with Chuanbang, why have I never heard this truth from Chuanbang? "

Xiong Badou laughed at himself: "The Chuan Gang and the Tang Sect are both famous schools that have stood for a hundred years, and their actions will not violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

The underground gangs are different, they are all out of the way, and their means are not bright, there is no tomorrow.In order to survive, he had no choice but to walk in the dark area.Therefore, the ideas are quaint and weird, and they will not follow the rules and stick to the rules. "

……

A few drums sounded, and the gate was about to close.

Xiong Badou sent Bai Fu to the gate of Pingkangfang. When saying goodbye, Bai Fu glanced at the girl's leader and said, "Although the white jade pillow was recovered, you committed serious crimes by entering the palace and stealing. I have to arrest you and bring you to justice.

I'm giving you a day to say goodbye to your family.After you settle down, you come to the Jinwu Guard Office to surrender. "

The girl gang leader looked calm and composed.She nodded and said, "Since I dare to see you, I'm ready to go to jail. Before sunset tomorrow, I will be brought to justice."

Seeing this, Xiong Badou hurriedly said: "General, take a step to speak."

Xiong Badou took Bai Fu aside, sighed, and said: "This is her decision, and I have no power to intervene. The matter has come to this point, please raise your hand high and be lenient."

Bai Fu nodded, and said: "I have already found out that the stolen money they sold was used to help the orphans, widows, old and young, and there is no wrongdoing. I will definitely try my best to mediate and strive for a lighter sentence."

Xiong Badou said: "General, do you know who she is?"

Bai Fu said: "I know her name is Xu Feihong. She is the leader of the Feihong gang. She is nicknamed 'Feitian'. She lives in Shengyefang and has an old mother at home. Her identity as an embroiderer is an embroidery lady. She usually does embroidery and sewing. for a living."

Xiong Badou looked at Bai Fu in a daze, and said, "I guessed right. She really didn't tell the truth."

Bai Fu was quite surprised, and said: "Xiong Ba, is there something in your words?

Xiong Badou said: "General, do you still remember Xu Ye who was in charge of Chuan Gang Chang'an? Feihong is Xu Ye's own sister!"

"what?"

Bai Fu's expression changed drastically.

When the Lantern Festival was held on New Year's Eve, Yang Yichan was stunned and abducted by the Caiyi Club.If Xu Ye hadn't stepped forward, Yang Yichan would have been murdered by Li Linfu's son.

The righteous man Xu Ye was involved in the dispute between Li Linfu and the prince Li Heng, and was brutally tortured to death by Ji Wen and other cruel officials.

Afterwards, the Chuan Gang kept looking for Xu Ye's family members, hoping to support the family.But after Xu Ye's death, his family members took advantage of the chaos and fled Chang'an without a trace.

The Chuan Gang has been making unannounced visits for many years, but there has been no news.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ye's family members lived in the neighborhood to the north of the Bashu Guild Hall.What's even more unexpected is that his sister is actually a Jiangyang thief whom he tried his best to arrest!
　The ancient Xuzhou was victorious, exhausted, and a few heroes.Think of the iron armor with double pupils, the sweat and blood of Wu Zi, and the empty jade tent.Chu Ge's eight thousand soldiers were scattered, and it was expected that Menghun would not be able to meet Jiangdong.The Yellow River is like a belt in the sky, and the chaotic mountains are round Yunlong.

　　The autumn wind rises from the Han family mausoleum, and the millet is full of Guanzhong.Even more, there is a shortage of horses and horses, thrushes are far away, and swallows are empty.A hundred years of life is like a post, and you are happy, drinking a thousand bells in one go.Looking back at the slanting sun in the deserted city, leaning on the column to send Feihong off.
