Mohist Tang

Chapter 294


School of Legalism!

Among the Hundred Schools of Thought, the biggest opponent of Confucianism is not the Mohist Family, who was as famous as Confucianism at the time, but the forerunner of the harsh criminal law.

During the Warring States Period, the School of Legalism became popular, emphasizing “not to be close to each other, not to distinguish between noble and inferior, and to be judged by law.” Advocate that the punishment should not avoid the big Small Official, and the good will be rewarded. It can be said that it is a natural opposition to Confucianism, who is not a Doctor.

The sages of the School of Legalism at the time were Li Li, Wu Qi, Shang Yang, and Shen Buhu……………successfully reformed laws in various countries, creating powerful countries one after another.

It can be said that School of Legalism is the foundation of a strong country. It can be said that any imperial Imperial Capital is impossible to know, but the scene before him makes Mo Dun cool from the top of his head to the bottom of his heart.

“Pardon?”

Everyone couldn’t help but was taken aback. They looked at the next condemned prisoners on the city wall in surprise, and they were pardoned.

Many Ministry of Justice officials were also taken aback. After repeated confirmations, they really believed that Your Majesty really pardoned this group of death row prisoners, and had to lift the shackles for these death row prisoners.

“Your Majesty is Eternally Renowned Monarch!”

At this moment, a Confucian student wearing azure clothes was excited and raised his arms. In his opinion, this is simply The highest manifestation of benevolent governance, the benevolence of kings, and even death row prisoners are so honest. Isn’t this the highest realm of Confucianism? What could be more sensational than the education of death row prisoners.

“Your Majesty benevolence is indeed the eternal Mingjun!”

The rest of the scholars suddenly stunned and shouted excitedly. In their opinion, the ruler believes in the people, and the people live up to the ruler, and it will become an eternal story.

“Your Majesty Rende, I will definitely rehabilitate in the future, and live up to Your Majesty’s trust, in order to pass on the name of Your Majesty Rendeming.” A group of prisoners were overjoyed, and they quickly bowed their heads to thank you. Surprise appeared on it.

“Your Majesty Shino Deity! Even such a prisoner can influence!” Many ordinary people were also excited, looking towards the Imperial Palace in the north, with a look of worship.

However, Mo Dun shook his head slightly, silently watching the Confucian scholars shouting Your Majesty. Benevolence and governance were moved. Even the prisoners were so honest. If these death row prisoners are all honest people, how can they commit blood debts?

Though these death row prisoners knowingly come to die, they still come here with faith. It is commendable, but the premise is that they are death row prisoners. Great Tang has always used the death penalty with caution, and the officials have a clear governance. None of the ten people was wronged.

In the eyes of these Confucian students, it is all about Your Majesty’s benevolence, and how these prisoners keep their promises, but no one thinks about how to safeguard the rights of the victims.

Above the city wall, every official and eunuch can’t help but stay like a wooden chicken. As the official and eunuch, they understand the Great Tang law better than ordinary persons.

Unless the new emperor is enthroned or is critically ill, the moment of pardoning the world is extremely rare, but it is not for everyone to pardon the world.

The ancients once said: “The ten evils are not forgiven! For example, ten crimes such as treason, treason, treason, rebellion, injustice, disrespect, disrespect, disharmony, injustice, and civil strife are absent. The act of pardon.

In addition to this heinous, there are also murders, arson, prisoners, and official crimes. It is clearly stipulated that they are not in the ranks of pardons. At most they are only abatement of crimes. The real pardons are only some of the ruling order. Criminals who do not do much harm.

But you must know that there are three hundred and ninety people in front of you, and all of them are executed prisoners. They are all pardoned. Li Shimin’s move is very incredible.

p>

What’s even more bizarre is that the entire Imperial court did not even have an official to stop, and even this amnesty decree passed three provinces and six departments in a very short time. This is the most abnormal thing.

Mo Dun’s thoughts changed, and suddenly, this is a performance, a performance praising Li Shimin.

Mo Dun until now I know that Li Shimin has a weak spot in his heart, and this weak spot is Xuanwu The change in Gate, whether Li Shimin thinks that Xuanwu Gate was forced to fight back for self-protection, or how good his emperor did, cant conceal the fact that Li Shimin imprisoned his father and killed his brother.

So Li Shimin and Ministry of Justice officials, who were eager to change their reputations, directed a good show of Mr. Ren Deming. If it were other Ministry of Justice High Officials, perhaps this party would definitely not work, but at this time Ministry of Justice High Official is Li Daozong, the most die-hard supporter of Li Tangs Aristocratic Family. Everything is in order.

Mo Dun feels sad, this is just a play, a self-directed and self-acted play. The price paid is the dignity of the School of Legalism.

For a while, many officials and children have figured out the truth, and their eyes flicker.

“This is the School. The sorrow of Legalism, the old man spent his entire life instructing School of Law, abide by the law, and spread the School of Legalism doctrine. Now, how to face the sages of School of Legalism, it’s better to return home from now on. “

Under the city wall, Mo Dun saw the School of Law Court Academecian hunched deeply, as if his spine had been broken, and took off the school of Law Court Academecians hat on his head. I was actually preparing to hang the crown and leave.

“Court Academecian is the pillar of the Imperial College of Supreme Learning. How many Ministry of Justice officials have been cultivated for Great Tang, how can they leave so rashly. “Li Daozong quickly dissuaded him. He is the Ministry of Justice High Official. He naturally knows how influential the School of Law Court Academecian is.

School of Law Court Academecian said with a smile: “Since Your Majesty has found a way to probate death row prisoners, and future death row prisoners can follow this example. Old man with old bones is useless. “

Li Daozong’s face flushed immediately, and he naturally knew the reason, and he was immediately ashamed.

If you follow this method in the future, everyone will know that even if you kill someone, As long as you come back on time the next year, you will be forgiven. Isnt it a chaos that day.

“You are ashamed of the law! “School of Law Court Academecian turned to see the children he had taught before, and said with great grief.

“Master! “A group of Ministry of Justice officials couldn’t help but feel ashamed.

Most of them are students who graduated from the Imperial College of Supreme Learning. Seeing the teacher say this, they cant help but feel ashamed. They are the law. Enforcers, of course, know that the greatest role of the law is to punish evil, but today they personally condone evil.

“School of Legalism is dead! “School of Law Court Academecian screamed! Staggering away, the Court Academecian official hat in his hand fell and was heavily trampled underfoot. However, no Ministry of Justice official followed the School of Law. Court Academecian and go.

“School of Legalism is dead! “Mo Dun couldn’t help feeling sad.

In the pre-Qin period, the School of Legalism was so powerful, to rebuke Heaven and Earth. However, under the external Confucianism and the internal law, the School of Legalism became the ruler’s reputation. The tool, seemingly long-lived, has lost its spirit, just like a walking corpse, which can be manipulated by others.

School of Law Court Academecian’s sorrow is just the last scream of School of Legalism, and soon I was drowned in the cheers of the scholars. I couldnt even set off a single storm.
