Li Si didn't hesitate at all.
"Naturally, he who goes along with the crime is equally guilty."
Chen Ke nodded slightly: "Yes, this is the current continuous sitting system."
"But in my opinion, it shouldn't be."
He paused and looked at Ying Zheng, who was standing aside with a curious look on his face.
"Your Majesty, these people are just on the same side as sinners. Since they cannot enjoy the benefits brought by sinners, why should they bear the sins brought by sinners?"
"And if these people were kept in the dark, we can't blame them."
"After the sinners and those who were condemned suffered, where did the money and benefits they gained go?"
Chen Ke sneered: "Of course it went into the hands of their blood relatives or the same clan."
"As a result, some clan forces have become extremely rampant."
"You can even push others to take the blame."
"This is a loophole in the law."
"That's why I feel that there is something wrong with this law."
"If we change it now, those who have enjoyed the benefits of sinners will have to bear the consequences."
"When those who came later saw this situation, they knew that their sins could not bring any benefits to their relatives, so they naturally stopped doing it."
"As for whether innocent people will be implicated——"
Chen Ke's expression was relatively calm.
"According to my opinion, unless the child has a bad relationship with his parents and fellow clansmen, there is no such thing as an innocent person."
"His father committed a crime, didn't his son enjoy the benefits?"
Chen Ke said, directly giving an example.
"For example, take Xiangliu of Kuaiji County. His father intends to rebel, spread rumors and cause trouble, in an attempt to frame His Majesty."
"This was something his father sat down on, and of course it had to implicate him."
"Because he enjoyed the benefits of his father's position as Sheriff."
"And of course his tribesmen have enjoyed this benefit to a greater or lesser extent. They can use Xiang Liu's reputation to dominate and dominate."
"This is one of the benefits. "
"For another example, there is a big thief nowadays. This big thief usually kills people and steals goods, but he was later caught."
"He has three children. Aren't these three children supported by the property obtained by this thief after killing people?"
Chen Ke shook his head: "I don't believe it."
"They can grow so big, and the rice they eat is bought by thieves. Where does the money come from to buy the rice?"
"From others."
"So they deserve to be held accountable."
Chen Ke showed no mercy to anyone. He looked around at the people behind him and sneered after a moment.
"Here's another perfect example."
"For example, among your Majesty's ministers, if someone is corrupt, perverts the law, and cares about human life, can we just kill them?"
"Of course not."
"Because their children have also been supported by the stolen money."
"Your Majesty, you can look at this matter in a more mysterious way, which is the so-called "cause and effect". "
"If you look at it from a normal perspective, that's the "rule". Whatever you gain, you must lose. One thing is exchanged for another. "
After Chen Ke finished speaking, everyone present, except those who had ulterior motives, were all meditating on what Chen Ke said.
Even Li Si is the same.
He seemed to hear something different from Chen Ke's words.
Chen Ke’s ideas seem to be Legalist, but they don’t seem to be Legalist, but they seem to have a Legalist flavor in them.
He raised his head in confusion and looked at Chen Ke standing in front of him.
Isn't Chen Ke a disciple of the Mo family?
This question also filled Ying Zheng's mind, making him confused.
Isn't Chen Ke a disciple of the Mo family?
Why are you so proficient in Legalism?
He looked at Chen Ke and asked, "Are you from the Legalist family?"
Chen Ke smiled and shook his head, with helplessness on his face.
He pointed to Zuo Ge who was standing aside with no surprise on his face and said, "Your Majesty, my senior brother is still here."
"I am a serious disciple of the Mohist family."
At this moment, Chen Ke admitted his identity as a Mohist disciple in front of all the ministers.
But this incident did not surprise anyone present, as it seemed that everyone knew about it.
In other words, when Chen Ke took out the printing blocks, he reused some skilled craftsmen.
These people already know this.
Ying Zheng also smiled and shook his head. He looked at Chen Ke and said jokingly: "Then why do you advocate harsher punishments than Li Si, a disciple of the Legalists?"
At this time, Ying Zheng had already reached the foot of Mount Tai and got into the chariot unhurriedly.
Chen Ke shrugged: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood again."
"I do not advocate the so-called harsh punishments and laws. I only advocate "ruling the country according to the law." "
"rule by law"?
This word sounds a little strange.
Chen Ke then said: "Besides, the new implication system I mentioned is not a harsh punishment."

As soon as these words came out, the ministers who had just heard Chen Ke's words looked at Chen Ke with strange eyes.
Silence is better than sound here.
"Ahem."
Sensing the resentful looks from the ministers, Chen Ke coughed slightly in embarrassment.
Why do you feel that these people have misunderstandings about you?
He smiled and shook his head, and said directly: "Your Majesty, I feel that the most important thing in the joint sitting system is "connection", not "tong". "
"Of course the person who is sentenced to death must be punished, but sometimes this punishment does not have to be the same as that of the sinner."
Chen Ke had no intention of changing the cruel methods of killing the Nine Clan or the Yi Tribe.
He just felt that sometimes the continuous sitting was too hasty.
"For example, if this person commits the crime of stealing, he needs to be detained for thirty days and sentenced to death."
"Then if his family knows about this and helps, they will be detained for thirty days and subject to the same criminal law."
"If you know about this but do something to stop it, you will be punished with half the penalty."
"If you don't know about this and are just kept in the dark, then you will be charged one-third of the criminal law."
"This is the involvement I mentioned."
He sighed, raised his forehead and looked at the many ministers and Ying Zheng who was standing there with a teasing look on his face.
"This is what I call the joint sitting system and the "law". "
"It's not what His Majesty and your colleagues think."
He's not a devil, so why would he change the Qin Law into such a terrifying way?
Chen Ke can't guarantee that these Qin laws will not be used on him...
Only then did Ying Zheng laugh: "Hahahahaha, that's it."
"Then I was wrong."
Ying Zheng was very candid. He looked at Chen Ke and said, "Since you have such thoughts, I agree with you in revising Qin's laws."
"Since you brought this up, you know everything about it."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you and Li Si."
"Li Si?"
Li Si quickly woke up from his reverie, took a step forward, and glanced at Chen Ke complicatedly.
Then he responded in a low voice: "I obey your order."
PS: Comrades, isn’t it normal for recommendations to explode... Even if there are no recommendations, I will not reduce the basic updates...
It's just that I'm not full-time, and with the problems of my lumbar and cervical spine, it's impossible to code so much...
And there are so many codes, it’s easy to collapse, because I don’t have an outline...
I also want to write a longer one...I don’t want it to collapse after seven to eight hundred thousand words QAQ
