Chapter 452 Law
"That's good!" Lin Nanzheng said honestly.
"That's right! Don't talk about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. If we scold others in our hearts now, we will just accept him." Han Qinhu echoed after hearing this.
"The Han Dynasty introduced the "Three Cardinal Principles and Five Constant Principles" into the law. In order to prove its orthodoxy, it tried its best to deify itself, which caused serious damage to social fairness and justice." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with stern eyes and said, "For example
We are familiar with the crime of cover-up, where parents who commit crimes and children are not allowed to report them, and husbands who commit crimes and wives are not allowed to report them. This brings great obstacles to timely investigation and on-site investigation." He blinked and added, "There are still deceitful people. "Please come first.
"System", during the Han Dynasty, if officials with a salary of more than 300 shi committed a crime, their punishment would be reduced if they could plead guilty themselves!
"What?" Chen Zhongyuan stood up and said angrily, "Why!" He said with a black face, "Just now Li Xiaolan said it was fair and just, because he was afraid that the punishment would not be fair to the nobles, so now the officials can ask first
If you can reduce the penalty, then you can also use money to atone for your sins in the future!"
"Isn't it a common phenomenon in the last years of this dynasty? Selling officials and conferring titles, killing people without having to pay with your life as long as you have money." Ye Yunyu snorted coldly and said, "Children of officials and nobles, the law is empty in their eyes."
"Confucianism, which emphasizes the privileges of the law so much, has benevolent thoughts. This has caused a devastating blow to the fairness of the law. At the same time, it has also caused officials not to be as serious and responsible as the officials of the Qin Dynasty because they do not have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.
Responsibility can be said to be a serious degradation of the law." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with dark eyes and said calmly.
Hearing this, Ye Yunyu looked at them with dark eyes and said, "As you said, the real severe punishments are closely related to Confucian ethics. For example, being disrespectful and bullying the emperor are all death sentences. He talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but in fact
Am I as good a gentleman as they claim to be?" He pursed his lips and said, "The key is that it is difficult to determine the authenticity of these accusations. You can't tell whether they are intentional or unintentional. If you say you have them, you will get it, if you say you don't, you won't. Even if you say you don't, you won't.
You can make a fuss about words and confuse right and wrong. Many crimes that were not punishable by death in Qin's laws will be punished by death with a stroke of a pen as long as they have the slightest hint of "loyalty and filial piety" in the laws of later dynasties. It's better to be wrong.
Even if you kill them, you won’t let them go. In history, most of the Yi tribes and Yi tribes have been slaughtered because of this.”
"It's unnecessary." Hong Lianshuo thought of a word after hearing this.
"Yes! Let's not talk about evidence, maybe there is!" Ye Yunyu nodded hurriedly.
"Use the method of labeling to eliminate those who threaten your status and consolidate your status." Hong Lianshuo said with a cold snort, "Especially if you use dirty methods."
"The Qin Dynasty was the Yi tribe, and the Jiu tribe started in the Han Dynasty." Lin Nanzheng glanced at them and said, "The scope has been expanded."
"If you don't tell us this, we really don't know."
"Uh-huh!"

Jiang Shuisheng looked at her very curiously and asked, "Ms. Hong, you spoke so well of Qin's laws, but why did the Qin Dynasty only exist for such a short period of time, and why did the people rebel?"
"Yes! Yes! I was still thinking about Wan Wan Shi, but Qin II was gone."
"From what you said, Qin Fa is not that bad, right?"
"On the contrary, it's quite fair."
"How come the Emperor of Han Dynasty was allowed to dominate the world?"
"It's very simple! Because the people of the six countries could not accept the first unification, the nobles of the six countries are still there." Hearing this, Hong Lianshuo raised his heroic eyebrows and looked at them and said, "And after the unification of Qin, the interests of many people were affected. Che
Those who move on the same track are the nobility, those who have the same writing system are the interests of the literati, and those who have a unified currency are the merchants. No one has yet accepted the idea of unification."
"Legalism has seriously damaged the interests of the entire gentry class." Ye Yunyu looked at them calmly and said, "The gentry cannot be punished. After the Qin Dynasty unified, no matter whether it was possible or not, on the surface they were treated equally."
"Some of them were too radical and led to their demise. We should take it slow and take our time. However, the Han feudal system and the county system coexisted, and the interests of many people were preserved, so it lasted for a long time." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep black eyes and said, "
This method can only conquer the world, but cannot rule it. Because people are not tops and need to rest and recuperate with the people, and
The original intention of the policy is good, but it takes time to digest."
"It happened that the Qin Dynasty did not have time. To be precise, Qin Shihuang died too early." Ye Yunyu stared at them with black eyes.
"Qin attaches too much importance to the law. He thinks that with the law, everything can be solved. He even includes morality in it, and is so cold and devoid of any human feelings." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his dark eyes and said, "This
Whether you are living your life or running errands, every aspect and every detail of your behavior must be restricted by the law. I really wish I could stipulate which foot to step through the door first. If you make a mistake, it is against the law!"
"The law is too strict, and it won't work if it makes it difficult for the people to make a living." Ye Yunyu looked at them with deep eyes and said.
"It was commented in "The Treatise on Salt and Iron": Qin's law was complicated in the autumn, but the net was condensed with fat." Lin Nanzheng looked at them with his phoenix eyes and said, "This law is as dense as a grate. Qin's law emphasizes heavy punishment for small mistakes.
, then I don’t dare to do things like murder and arson.”
"Reverse it! Shouldn't a big mistake be punished heavily?" Li Shuangzhu said doubtfully.
"Yes, that's what is written in the Qin Code." Lin Nanzheng looked back slightly and then added, "This history book records that people wearing prison uniforms can be seen everywhere in the Qin State. Prisoners can be seen everywhere in the market.
prison."
"In the market?" Ding Yougen asked puzzledly, "How to imprison him?"
"The ground is a prison." Lin Nanzheng said, his eyes falling on him.
"Qin Luyan is different from other dynasties. For example, if you beat your parents, it's a big act of unfilial piety, and you will die immediately regardless of the reason." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep and upright eyes and said, "Qin Luyan will only punish him with a tattoo on his face.
"
"But not all parents in this world are worthy of being parents!" Hua Sijin said after hearing this, she felt deeply.
"That doesn't matter. The law is the law. If it is written like this, it must be strictly enforced." Ye Yunyu said helplessly.
"The harshness of Qin's law is more reflected in its strictness. The law is the law and cannot be touched at all, let alone changed by personal feelings. This is not only for the common people, but also for the officials." Hong Lianshuo's deep and upright eyes
He looked at them and said.
Lin Nanzheng looked at them with his phoenix eyes and said, "There are only two things you can do in Qin: farming and fighting."
Jiang Shuisheng said, "No wonder everyone hates Shang Yang. He was torn apart by the chariot. He was offended from top to bottom."
Chen Zhongyuan looked at them with his big bell-like eyes and said, "No wonder the inaction in the early Han Dynasty was praised like that."
