I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 169 Don't build a car behind closed doors!
If the law is too detailed, without special study, it is difficult to know what kind of crimes you have committed and how you will be sentenced. Professionals are needed to have a general score.

The reason why I say "generally" is too realistic. Every crime has a distinction between subjective and non-subjective, and how bad it is. How powerful it is, or what kind of judge it is.

Ordinary people can certainly tell what is good and what is bad, but they are different from the values ​​of each era.

Perhaps it was not a big deal to kill people in a fight in the previous era, but in the next era, a fight would be a death sentence immediately.Regarding this point, if there are no accidents, the people of Qin in the future will have a deep understanding.

Don’t think that Zhuxia doesn’t have the profession of judges. All countries have their own “judges.” From a modern understanding, they are the justices of the Supreme Court.

Of course, the judges of the nations are not used to judge ordinary people, they judge the nobles.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, each family had its own family rules, and whoever committed a crime was dealt with according to the family rules.Because the rules set are different, and the punishment for what is committed is inconsistent. It may be a capital offense in that family, but it is no big deal in a certain family.

To put it simply, nobles have the power of sentencing and trial, and they are not able to punish outsiders, only under their own rule.

"The current laws need to be publicized before they can be enforced. They are not formulated and hidden until someone breaks the law and then brought out for trial. I definitely can't make it complicated." What Zhiyao said is the current situation of the current era.

That's because the law is not used to judge ordinary people, or even if it is publicized, ordinary people can't read or understand it.Therefore, it is used to publicize it to the nobles, which can be regarded as a deterrent, and it is also the basis for trial after the nobles break the law.

Of course, not everyone in the Zhi family can read and write. After Zhiyao's years of hard work, there are definitely more people in the Zhi family who are literate than other families.

Mentioning the literacy rate of the Zhi family is not for showing off, it is purely Zhiyao's plan to send a large group of people to popularize the common people after writing the civil code, that is, they go to various places to read it to the common people, and then let the normal common people know What will be the punishment for what you do.

"Shang Yang imitated Zhao Yang, and if I imitate Shang Yang, there is no one else..." Zhiyao thought.

In many aspects of his governance of the Zhi family, he imitated the Qin State after the reform, covering the living and the people followed the legalist path, and the development path is actually the same.

If it is difficult to tell which country is the first to carry out education and popularization, it is true that Qin State was the first to carry out it in Zhuxia's side. The way is to open lecture halls and teach the laws of Qin State.

Qin Guofa was very serious about ruling the country with family members.If you want to have an official position in Qin State, the premise is to understand the laws of Qin State. The country also trains a large number of small officials who are familiar with the law every year to fill the localities, so as to control the localities.

"If I want to write the folk code, I must cultivate a large number of people who are familiar with the law, and then let them spread the law to the common people. Otherwise, writing the folk code is just for self-entertainment." action.

Of course it's not like the "Three Chapters of the Covenant".This is a need in the context of a special era. Furthermore, the "Three Chapters of the Covenant" is not as simple as "killer dies, wounding and stealing shall be punished", but actually includes many laws.

Later, Zhiyao recruited a large number of people who were engaged in civil affairs work at the grassroots level, mainly to ask them about Li Shu's needs.

This is the way of doing things, you can't just do what you think, especially things like making laws can't be done behind closed doors.

Zhiyao's "previous life" had limited understanding of the law, and in "this life" she was born with a golden key in her mouth. In fact, she was unable to have a personal understanding of Li Shu's needs.

After a general understanding, Zhiyao recruited some "Confucians" such as Zi Gong and Ran You to discuss some regulations on "rituals".

"Isn't the son's decision 'ritual'?" Zigong understood what Zhiyao wanted to do, but his face was full of surprise.

Ran You didn't seem interested at all, and asked, "What did Gongsun Chengzi and Fan Xianzi do?"

Gongsun Chengzi is Zichan.

Fan Xianzi is a scholar.

Both of them had done the work of enacting laws. The former built a bronze punishment tripod, and the latter opened the way for Zhao Yang and Shiji to shoot a cast iron punishment tripod.

Zhiyao pretended not to understand, and said, "Why is it wrong?"

In the eyes of some "Confucians", it is not only inappropriate, it is completely inappropriate!
Zi Gong and Ran You looked at each other.

If in the past, because of the problems in the circle they came into contact with, and because they had never been involved in civil management, they might say something like "How can 'Li' deal with Li Shu".

Now?They have been in Zhiyao for so long, and they have been responsible for local inspections. They have a general understanding of what Zhiyao wants to do, and they really can't say anything similar.

Zhiyao has a headache!
Looking for "Confucianism" to learn about can get some references from "rituals", and if you know what you want to do, you will be rejected.

Zi Gong considered and considered again, and said: "'Li' is the foundation of a country."

Zhiyao understood, really!

"Of course I know that the law is a tool used by the ruling class to facilitate the rule. What is needed is what kind of person the ruler wants Li Shu to become, not what Li Shu wants the country... What is Zhi Shi like? Really according to Li Shu's Isn't it a fool to try to formulate laws?" Zhiyao felt very tired after talking with the crowd.

The reason why it is necessary to understand "rituals" is that "rituals" are actually a set of systems that restrain people.

Ji Zhou practiced the patriarchal system, which refers to enfeoffment; he also governed the country with "rituals", in which "rituals" are not only red tape, but also include corresponding punishments.

Therefore, "ritual" is actually the law of Ji Zhou, which is specially used to control the law of nobles.

As for the point of view that the law serves the ruler, anyway, this is the starting point for the formulation of the law in the feudal dynasty.

Saying that the country cannot be governed according to the people's ideas may sound very unpleasant, but it is actually very realistic.

Everyone hopes that they can get benefits, and at the same time, they are trying their best to avoid risks. Is it okay to formulate a welfare policy that the country will give everyone [-] million per month?That will definitely work, and then either the currency will depreciate to the point of disrespect, or the country will go bankrupt immediately.

There is another saying that wisdom is always in the hands of a few people, and ordinary people are indeed inferior to more professional people in governing the country.

Zhiyao needs to understand Li Shu's thoughts, and her own starting point is very professional. What level of goals the ruler wants to achieve, and then integrate the needs of ordinary people, can largely avoid serious disconnection.And this has the meaning of "the law is nothing more than human feelings".

"Right now, Li and Shu are not 'people'. 'Min' refers to the class above 'scholar' at present, and in ancient times it specifically refers to people with 'shi'. Later, it was the turn of the powerful and aristocratic families to be the 'people', and even more so. Later, the gentry are the 'people'." Zhiyao chatted with 'Ru' and learned that 'shi' is both 'people' and 'scholar' is 'people'.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there were no powerful families or aristocratic families, and it was generally divided into ladders such as monarchs, nobles, scholars, Li Shu, and slaves.

Is there any special target for the civil code that Zhiyao wants to formulate?He hopes to include all groups, and the reality is that it is simply impossible in the temporary stage.

Now is an era in which "doctors are not punished with punishment, and ordinary people are not treated with courtesy", and "doctors" are the real aristocratic class; "rituals" are used to control nobles, and Li Shu does not have that kind of treatment.

When sending Zigong and Ran away, Zhiyao looked at their backs and thought, "No wonder the Confucianism of later generations dared to do that. It means holding a chicken feather as an arrow."

In the later ages, the emphasis is on keeping the law from being known to others. I don’t know if it’s because they are afraid of being taken advantage of, or they think that their own is a human being and the rest of them are two-legged animals.

Of course, with the word "herdsman", one can imagine.

Zhiyao has been in the nest for nearly two months, and another winter is ushering in.

He later figured out one thing, part of the military regulations can be applied to the civil code, and the speed of writing the civil code is greatly accelerated.

I don't know what the situation is, it may be that the work is done, or it may be that the affairs of the folk code have been leaked, and Confucius' disciples have come to Zhiyao to say goodbye.

"A little money, be sure to accept it." Zhiyao handed out some knives and coins.

The season has come to winter, and seeing that it will snow soon, Zhiyao has prepared relevant necessities for the farewell people very humanely.

Sending a car or something?Even if Zhi's family has a big business, they really can't afford it.

It is possible to bid farewell, but there are more than 2000 people. Each person will send a car, and each car will be pulled by at least one horse. I can’t afford mines at home!

"This farewell is not for the son, but for the teacher Kong to enter Cai. Nan also finished his work, so..." Seeing Zhiyao's sad face, Sinan deliberately explained.

So, it's not because Zhiyao's writing of civil codes disgusts them as "Confucianists", but simply because Confucius lacks horses?

Seems to be the same?Those who came to say goodbye, they all finished the work at hand, and none of the other people who had not finished the work in hand came.

Once again, Zhiyao learned about the influence Confucius had on these people.

It is worth pondering, who brought the news that Confucius went to Cai?Did the news come inadvertently, or was Confucius deliberately summoning Ma Zai? ? ?

In addition, if Zhiyao remembers correctly, the Cai people have been moved to the south by Chu State, right?

What Zhiyao didn't know was that Confucius was invited by Ye Gong.

Who is Ye Gong?It is the Ye Gong who "Ye Gong loves dragons".He, surnamed Ji, surnamed Shen, surnamed Zhuliang, styled Zigao, is currently Zuo Sima of Chu State.

Later, Lao Tzu learned that a group of "Confucians" were going south to enter Chu State, and asked to apologize to Zixi on his behalf.

This Zixi is the current Ling Yin of the Chu State, and he has repeatedly urged Lao Tzu to return to the Chu State.

Lao Tzu is very busy in Zhishi, able to participate in various matters, witness the rapid changes in "Handan", and go to the place where books are printed from time to time, life is not too beautiful!

"I heard about Shizi's works, how can I be selfless?" Lao Tzu felt that Zhiyao looked down on his own rule by doing nothing, and didn't understand how subtle the rules involved were.

Zhiyao: "..."

　It's just a tragedy, the mental state is too bad.The next chapter is estimated to be updated during the day, so don't wait.
