35The guards are coming 2
"You..." The leading guard wanted to say something, but he seemed to have thought of something and stopped talking.
"I'm afraid this young man is stupid because of studying. If we follow everyone's wishes, these scoundrels can at least live in peace for a while. Poor old man Wu..."
There were voices of dissatisfaction from the people around him.
“Everyone, the state has its own laws and every family has its own rules.
I know your good intentions, but what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong!
What is right cannot become wrong for some reasons, and what is wrong cannot become right for some reasons.
Today, according to our consciousness, we have punished these scoundrels, so if one day you are wronged, will you also have to bear the injustice yourself? "
“Officials cannot do things that the law does not allow officials to do. If people do things that the law does not prohibit the people from doing, it does not constitute an illegal act!
Why does Your Majesty always demand that things be handled in accordance with the law? That's because many people in the Ming Dynasty had no power and little money.
If you meet a good official who loves his people like his own son, that's better. At least you won't be bullied too badly.
But if you meet a dog official, you don’t need to tell me, you already know what the situation is like.
The reason why the legal system is called the legal system is that His Majesty wants to set a limit for the officials in the world to avoid the recurrence of dog officials in power and beasts running rampant in the world.
I can listen to you today and give the responsibility directly to these scoundrels, which will make everyone happy. But what if one day, an officer who knows everything about it examines today's case?
You are all making false accusations. According to the Ming Dynasty Law, those who make false accusations are guilty of the same crime.
These scoundrels will be happy to deal with you and enforce the law.
If you are not dealt with, and the majesty of the country's laws and disciplines is no longer there, there will inevitably be countless false accusations.
The person who will be wronged may be you, or even your relatives.
"
"The laws of the Ming Dynasty are not perfect yet, but the Jin Yiwei must have passed on what happened today. It won't be long before your Majesty will issue a temporary law to deal with these scoundrels."
Zhu Youjian said.
The purpose of the law is to ensure that the country can go further. It protects good people, punishes those who make mistakes, severely punishes the bad people, and regulates those with power. This is the power that the law should have, and it is an important factor for the country's longevity. .
Zhu Youjian heard it said many times by others in later generations.
The best social system is:
Don’t let rich people have power,
Don’t let the powerful be rampant,
Don’t let powerful people become corrupt;
Don’t let hardworking people be poor,
Don’t let law-abiding people be bullied.
But the display is often just the opposite.
Rich people have power;
Powerful people are rampant,
Powerful people are corrupt;
The industrious man is poor,
Law-abiding people are bullied.
This reality is not what Zhu Youjian wants to see, but it is not something that Zhu Youjian can change by himself.
Although Zhu Youjian may not be able to see the results he wants in his lifetime,
But as the old saying goes.
"If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach a thousand miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you can't reach a river or sea."
How would you know if you don't experiment it yourself?
If you don't work hard for it, how can other people with vested interests have any scruples?
The dragon-slaying warrior should not become the new evil dragon!
"In that case, then come with us. I believe the county magistrate will understand everything clearly."
said the leading guard.
