If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

Chapter 21 Emperor Kai is a gentleman, the parents of the people

After twelve days, after reading books, learning to draw every day, chopping firewood every morning, and training coordination at night...

Lin Ke felt that he was different.

All the firewood in his own yard had already been chopped up, so the firewood from the third day was brought back from Tongfu Restaurant, and it was delivered when it was almost cut in the morning.

The painting skills have made great progress, and the dancing skills are also trying to integrate the characteristics here.

Everything is going in a good direction!

……

At dusk, Lin Ke was writing down the pen at the entrance of the studio, depicting the pillars outside the gate of "Listening to the Music and Goulan" on the street.

When he lowered his head and then raised his head, a human head appeared above the easel, looking down at his painting from above.

He was terrified by the sudden appearance of the human head in front of him.

Although Lin Ke stood up, the brush on the painting did not move at all, so the painting never showed any failure due to shaking!

It turned out that Lin Ke had already practiced so well that his writing skills would not be affected by anyone coming!
Lin Ke saw who was coming, smiled and took the pen away from the drawing paper, put down the pen, stood up and bowed, "Who is this big brother?"

After Lin Ke got up, the man hurried over and gave him a profile, looking at Lin Ke's painting.

The person who came was wearing a pure white robe, and then he took out his hands behind his back in a perfunctory manner. This person was holding a white jade folding fan with a red agate pendant under the fan. He folded his hands sideways and raised his hands at will .

Then I looked at Lin Ke's painting.

Lin Ke painted the scene from the "Zhang Butcher's Butcher's Shop" next door to the "Listening to Music Gou Lan" on the street.

Not a trace of color on the painting!
All black lines!

Yes!

Lin Ke is drawing the outline of the street scene!

The painting is nearing the end, and I am drawing lines for the pillar of "Tingqu Goulan".

I saw him raising his hand to pinch his chin, and then smoothed the side of his hair.

The man turned around and looked at Lin Ke, slamming his mouth, as if muttering to himself: "This Lin'er has changed her temper? Has she changed her liking for Xiao Xianrou?"

Lin Ke could clearly see the face of the person who came, how could he not understand what he meant when he heard the words?
As soon as he heard it, he knew that this person was just thinking wrong!
In Lin Ke's opinion, this person can be called a handsome and handsome son of a rich family!

Lin Ke smiled and cupped his fists and said, "Brother, I'm just the master's apprentice, not what you think."

The man suddenly realized, and heard him say: "I understand, teacher-student relationship, right?"

Lin Ke's head got dizzy when he heard this, and even Wang Lin couldn't handle it, and he seemed to be ruthless, and seemed to be more out of his mind than Wang Lin!

He didn't rush to explain, and when he was about to call Wang Lin, the door of the painting workshop opened.

Wang Lin appeared at the door, and when she saw the person coming, she immediately showed a wretched smile: "Why are you here? Come in, come in, I have released some new works, watch them?"

The handsome man suddenly had a green light in his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"

Then, at the entrance of the workshop, only Lin Ke was left messing around in the wind.

Lin Ke took a deep breath and looked at the sky. It was time to go to Tongfu Restaurant. He picked up the paintbrush, which was as stable as Mount Tai. Only when the tip of the brush was blown by the wind from time to time would he see the brush moving.

He was interrupted by the man just now, he finished the last unfinished stroke, then put down the pen, and was about to leave.

Because from the second day on, Wang Lin didn't allow herself to enter the painting workshop. He guessed it was because he heard that she was a hooligan at the shopkeeper of the restaurant on the first day.

It has been more than ten days, and Lin Ke is still outside the door. Every day, she will put the easel, paper and pen outside in advance, and after explaining what Lin Ke is going to do, he will not show up, unless there are guests or like today...

Lin Ke, who had just lifted his foot, stopped because there was a kicking and clanging sound in the workshop.

Then, he saw a white figure flying upside down.

And then?
Then, he saw that the man seemed to be stuck to the wall, and he hadn't come down for a long time.

Lin Ke stared at the person attached to the wall. He stood there looking at the figure in white clothes attached to the wall.

"Why don't you hurry up and do odd jobs and wait for me to take care of your meals?"

When Wang Lin's soft and waxy voice uttered a word, Lin Ke immediately shivered.

He turned his head to look at the figure in white on the wall, and prayed silently for him for three seconds!
Lin Ke raised his foot and ran, ran to the entrance of Tongfu Restaurant, stood at the door and looked back over there.

At this time, the shopkeeper also ran over panting, looking in the direction Lin Ke was looking at.

Then the two saw Wang Lin enter the room and saw the door closed.

A second later, the two heard the sound of the door closing.

"boom……"

There is still an echo?

The two looked at each other, and trotted back to the restaurant together.

"What's the matter?"

"I do not know either!"

The two asked and answered, and they seemed to have said everything, but they didn't seem to say anything.

The two separated, and Lin Ke skillfully found a rag and began to wipe the window, looking towards the workshop from time to time...

After wiping, Lin Ke fell into thinking.

These twelve days...

Every day at three o'clock and one line, Li Chungang's tofu shop, fairyland painting workshop, and Tongfu restaurant are studying and doing odd jobs every day...

Lin Ke has already seen the second column of Li Chungang's book.

The second column is the law, and he has already read more than half of it. From the fourth day on, he went to read the book an hour earlier every day, and grind the tofu normally at nine o'clock.

Of course, he had to get up an hour earlier, because he also had to train his coordination by getting up early.

On the first day of looking at the second column, the old man left a question for himself and asked him to find the answer from the second column.

Ask him: Can Dawei resume corporal punishment?
corporal punishment?

What is corporal punishment?
For example, if a person commits a minor capital crime, but the crime does not warrant death, the death penalty can be replaced by facial tattooing, rod punishment, or amputation of fingers, arms, feet, or even castration...etc.

Corporal punishment can greatly reduce the death penalty in Wei, such as the crime of defamation, the crime of throwing a bag of grain, or the crime of stealing a penny, and so on.

Lin Ke wanted to answer right then.

But Li Chungang waved his hand and said, "Wait until you have read at least this column, or all the books left, before answering me."

Lin Ke was silent at the time and could only nod his head, but he still thought in his heart that he had to recover.

why?
Because Lin Ke's soul is in another world after all, he believes that whether it is democracy, public opinion, or people's livelihood, he can choose to restore corporal punishment.

But Lin Ke found the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty on the first day, and there was a [Qin people all follow orders] in it.

What do you mean, this decree was established by Qin Shenghuang centered on Legalism, and it was embodied in the burning of books.

At that time, Qin Shenghuang ordered Li Si to burn the books, and those who disobeyed would be punished with corporal punishment, but the most severe punishment would not die, and he would be king!
Later, there really was a person who survived the punishment and became king.

But after that, 600 million more tortured people built the Mausoleum of Qin Shenghuang.

When Lin Ke saw this, he felt a little suspicious.

Afterwards, during the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, the corporal punishment was improved first, so that the corporal punishment was no longer so painful, but relatively speaking, it was still milder than that of the Qin Dynasty. Seeing the later record, Lin Ke frowned, At that time it was written like this:
"In order to redeem her father, the young girl followed her father to Xianjing of the Great Han Dynasty. She wanted to become a maidservant. The emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict based on the will of the people: 'Emperor Kai is a gentleman, the parents of the people'..."

The general meaning is that because a young girl went to Xianjing of the Han Dynasty to redeem her father's punishment, she could be a slave. I only hope that my father will not be tortured physically, because being tortured is no different from a paralyzed person.

This move of the girl moved the emperor of Han at that time, and later abolished corporal punishment!
But the girl's father was sentenced to death because of the abolition of corporal punishment!
Lin Ke put down the book when he saw this, and fell into deep thought without saying a word for a long time.
