The Unjust Corpse Guard is a treasure given to Chen Luo by Song Ci after he was conferred as a saint. It is also a loyal bodyguard. Accompanying Chen Luo into the underworld, fighting in a strange place, and now he has made great contributions in the just-concluded capture of An Songren.
According to Song Ci, the Wronged Corpse Guards were originally people who had suffered injustices. A very small number of them had lingering resentments after death and developed attachments, causing their auras to resist the attraction of the long river of life.
Under normal circumstances, such a soul will gradually turn into a resentful spirit and become part of the "ghost disaster", causing harm to the common people. Throughout its existence, it will fall into endless suffering. In the end, it will be unable to escape and be destroyed by a Taoist master. fate.
But once it is eliminated, the spiritual light of the living being will be shattered, and it will never be able to return to the river of living beings.
Song Ci couldn't bear it.
It's obviously very hard to live, so why do you have to suffer after death?
So Song Ci developed a secret method to use their dead bodies to seal resentment and free their spirits. And this body with resentment sealed is the prototype of the Unjust Corpse Guard.
Song Ci then used the power of his great power to refine these bodies so that they could follow the instructions of his soul and not go out to harm others.
Strictly speaking, this unjust corpse guard is completely different from the person they were before. The so-called resentment sealed in the body is nothing more than an extreme emotion, and the spiritual light of the soul has already entered the river of life and started the journey of life again. trip.
However, Song Ci has not forgotten their grievances!
It's just that most of these grievances involved the saints of the aristocratic families, and he had no way to solve them at that time. After resigning as prime minister, he handed over the evidence he collected to the new prime minister Cheng Nansong.
Now that Cheng Nansong saw that Chen Luo had condensed the three guillotines of Xie Zhi and had a solution, he sent his servant to present the evidence.
"Go back to Zhu Kingdom, I have more instructions." The servant heard Chen Luo's question, replied, and then handed over a jade slip.
Chen Luo took the jade slip with a solemn expression, his spiritual consciousness penetrated, and Cheng Nansong's words rang in Chen Luo's soul.
"Chen Luo, this is the evidence that Senior Brother Song handed over to me. Now I hand it over to you."
"There are a total of 1,636 exhibits, and the evidence chain is complete. The exhibits that can be directly sued involve 162 aristocratic families and 28 saint families!"
"However, I don't recommend that you plow through holes and catch them all in one go."
"Otherwise the world will be in chaos!"
"The law is like thunder, shocking Xiaoxiao; but after the thunder passes, there will always be spring breeze and rain."
"The noble family's extra-legal privileges have been around for a long time. It's easy to say what will happen in the future, but you need to think about how to calculate it in the past. Enforcement requires courage, and even more wisdom."
"I give you this batch of evidence so that you can hold a sharp blade and deal with the saints of the aristocratic families."
There were only so many words in the jade slip. After listening to it, Chen Luo put the jade slip away.
Seeing that Chen Luo had finished listening, the servant bowed again and asked, "Does the Dharma Master have anything to say to the master?"
Chen Luodan smiled and said, "Please convey my gratitude to Cheng Xiang for your suggestion."
The old servant nodded and was about to leave when he heard Chen Luo say: "But the law does not allow for trade. I, Chen Luo, will not borrow their power."
The old servant was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything. He just said that he remembered it, and then left the secret room.
…
After the old servant left, Chen Luo's eyes scanned the evidence in the secret room again.
He understood what Cheng Nansong meant.
Since ancient times, punishments have not been imposed on aristocratic families, and laws have not punished saints.
Not talking about the thousands of years of history of the human race, just talking about the Daxuan Dynasty, how many aristocratic families can withstand investigation, and how many saints dare to say they are innocent?
"This star really wants to retire"
Chen Luo has now broken this rule. If he really wants to let go and investigate, he is afraid that the three blue sky guillotines will strike out sparks.
It's okay if you're tired.
But if this happens, it may cause panic among the saints of the family, leading to chaos in the world.
After all, in today's world, the aristocratic saints are still the ones who control the main body of human power.
Look at Anjia, one arrest involved fifty-four great scholars!
How many poor families need to be able to come up with this amount?
Apart from anything else, 80% of the great scholars currently stationed at Wanren Mountain are from aristocratic saint clans.
People are defending the enemy on the front line, but you are destroying your family in the rear?
Even if the law comes first, if the scale is large, trouble will occur.
For countless years, it was not just luck that bound the human race to the aristocratic saint clan.
So there is a problem involved here.
Taking Kaifeng as the dividing point for the Guan family, there is no need to say that things will be done in accordance with the law. After all, Chen Luo has already set rules for the world.
So how should we calculate what happened before?
For example, will the injustices committed against the wronged corpse guards be investigated?
Now that Cheng Nansong has sent these evidences, he is actually suggesting that Chen Luo use these evidences as threats to first unite some of the saints from the aristocratic families around him to help him.
The great man once said, unite the majority and attack the minority.
But what if most of them are the targets you want to attack?
Or is it possible that the grievances of the wronged corpse guards are just treated as a deal and ignored?
this! No! Can! able!
Chen Luo had a preliminary idea in his mind, but now that he has so many cases, he can verify it.
Chen Luo took out a chair from the storage order and sat down. Then he reached out and grabbed a jade slip and began to examine it.
At this time, the outside world was also turbulent...
…
When the blue sky guillotine fell and An Songren's head rolled down, the hearts of all the saints of the world's aristocratic families were completely cold.
A great scholar!
The head of the Holy Family!
Just die?
Many well-informed saints from aristocratic families also know some more secret things.
For example, when the blue sky guillotine fell, several ritual half-sages tried to stop it.
But An Songren was still not rescued.
Han Changli, the leader of the Holy Church, publicly stated that the struggle between Taoism and Taoism is a struggle between Taoism and secularity, and they must not be confused!
What is the future direction of this holy family?
All of a sudden, many messenger bluebirds flew into Zhongjing and landed in every house. They were eager to know, what is Chen Luo's next plan?
They never dreamed that the position of "Dharma Prime Minister", which they had not cared about a few months ago, would become a sharp knife hanging above their heads because of Chen Luo's appointment.
They had guessed the purpose of Chen Luo, the leader of the Holy Church and the imperial court, to take up the post of Dharma Chancellor, but who could have imagined that he really did it, and so quickly!
…
At the same time, Mozhou, Fang family.
In the study, Fang Huaji looked coldly at the family heads who asked to see him and snorted coldly.
"What did I say back then?"
"Let you work with our Fang family to pull Chen Luo from the position of Dharma Prime Minister."
"what about you?"
"Be timid."
"Now that it's all right, he started to legislate and his destiny has been fulfilled. Do you know that you came to my Fang family to stand up for you?"
A family head said helplessly: "Brother Fang, don't say such depressing words."
"Let's think about what's next."
"Behind? What's behind?" Fang Huaji picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"It's not a matter of law." Another family head sighed, "If Chen Luo raises old scores, who among us here can withstand the investigation?"
"Hmph!" Fang Huaji snorted disdainfully, "He dares!"
"Everyone, haven't you seen it yet? That guy Chen Luo enjoys chopping off his head, but he himself is also playing with fire and falling into a pit of fire."
"If he dares to turn over old scores, he will be the enemy of all the saints of the world, all of them!"
"Don't worry, everyone, our Fang family will definitely stand up and give everyone a fair word."
"But at that time, what our Fang family needs is a response. You should know how to do it, right?"
The other family heads looked at each other and nodded: "Understood, only the Fang family will follow suit."
After a while, these family heads left one after another, and Fang Huaji sat alone in the study drinking tea.
A great scholar from the Fang family opened the door and walked in, saying, "Master, everything has been arranged."
"In the territory of Daxuan, we have arranged a total of more than two thousand pieces of eucalyptus and submitted the complaint overnight."
"Almost half of the holy families are involved."
Fang Huaji then put down the tea cup in his hand, with a proud smile on his face.
"good!"
The scholar thought for a moment and said, "Master, what if Chen Luo doesn't accept the petition and forgets about the past?"
Fang Huaji smiled lightly: "You don't understand Chen Luo."
"That boy, since he became famous, he has taken the world as his responsibility every step of the way."
"In his eyes, the people are the most precious and the saints are the least!"
"He will not ignore the people's complaints!"
Speaking of this, Fang Huaji paused: "If he really ignores..."
"We will help him spread the word."
The great scholar of the Fang family smiled knowingly: "So, no matter how Chen Luo leaves, it will be a dead end. In the end, he will resign and take office."
"This is a conspiracy!"
Fang Huaji twirled his beard and said proudly: "I don't believe it, he has a way to break the situation!"
…
"call……"
Chen Luo let out a long breath.
After spending a day and a night, I finally read all the information and checked all the evidence.
Chen Luo frowned as he looked at the densely classified records on the wall of the secret room.
"The method I thought of before is feasible..."
"But it still needs to be improved a little bit."
"only……"
Chen Luo's eyes fell on the names of the saints of the aristocratic families, and he sighed softly.
"The Xie Zhi Guillotine is only treating the symptoms after all!"
"The environment of the aristocratic saint clan itself is prone to breed evil."
"If you want to cure the root cause, you still need to work on this root!"
At this moment, a message suddenly came from Chen Luo's mind, which made Chen Luo's eyes light up.
"Huh? Is this... "Dream of Red Mansions" finished?"
"Huh? Damn it..."
"Can you still play like this?"
…
When Chen Luo left the secret room in the suburbs and returned to Anguo Palace, Deputy Prime Minister Wu Yongzhi, Deputy Prime Minister Gongsun Bo, and the newly appointed Governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate Chen Xiliang had been waiting for a long time.
"Three of you, why are you here? The truth is about to find you." Chen Luo said with a surprised look on his face.
"Hey, Zhu Guo, where have you been all day and night?" Gongsun Bo took the lead and said, "Thousands of complaints have been received over at Kaifeng Mansion."
"They all involve the holy family!"
Wu Yongzhi looked serious and said: "Zhu Guo cannot investigate or interrogate!"
"Otherwise, the world will be in chaos!"
"The world is not so easily chaotic." Chen Xiliang said coldly, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes when he looked at Chen Luo, "However, Zhu Guo, you will be under a lot of pressure..."
After hearing the words of the three deputy prime ministers, Chen Luo waved his hand.
"I understand the situation and I am about to discuss this matter with you. Let's go to the study to chat."
The three deputy officers saw Chen Luo's confident face, looked at each other, and followed Chen Luo to the study.
…
"Zhu Guo, let me speak first." He came to the study and sat down, and ordered the servants to serve tea one by one. Wu Yongzhi stood up first and said.
"Prime Minister Wu, don't be cautious, sit down and talk!" Chen Luo said with a smile.
Wu Yongzhi sat down, sighed softly at first, and said: "I will tell you the truth. I am the spokesperson recommended by the noble family to enter the biased place."
Chen Luo and the other two deputy prime ministers nodded, not surprised.
"Zhuguo, except for the Fang family and the families who are bewitched and controlled by the Fang family, the other holy families have no intention of being your enemy."
"On the contrary, we all deeply admire what you have done."
"It's just that the aristocratic holy family has flourishing branches and has a long history of extra-legal privileges. Naturally, there are inevitably some problems."
"As long as the Zhu Kingdom does not take responsibility for past events, most of the noble families and saints in the future will definitely put the law first."
After saying that, Wu Yongzhi turned his wrist, and a jade slip appeared in his hand, which he handed to Chen Luo: "This is the list of families who agree with my statement. Please ask Zhu Guo to take a look."
Chen Luo raised his eyebrows and took the jade slip, but the next moment, without looking at it, Chen Luo used force in his hand and crushed the jade slip.
"Zhu Guo, what do you mean by this?" Wu Yongzhi's expression changed and he asked.
Chen Luo signaled to Wu Yongzhi not to be nervous and said: "You cannot read this list for what it is. If you do, it will be biased."
The meaning in Chen Luo's words was obvious, old scores still had to be settled.
Chen Xiliang frowned slightly and said, "If we open up the investigation, I'm afraid..."
Chen Luo waved his hand and said, "I was about to discuss this topic with the three of them."
"Although there is a suspicion that people will be punished without teaching if they are investigating the past. But the law has always existed."
"What is the law?"
"It is the bottom line of human morality."
"Bottom line, you don't need to teach me, right?"
Seeing that Wu Yongzhi still wanted to speak, Chen Luo motioned for him to listen to what he had to say.
"Of course, I understand your concerns."
“All sin is in the world, and the sin is the law itself.”
"So, I have the following proposal. The three of you can discuss it. If yes, we will form a charter and proceed accordingly."
"This is number one..."
With that said, Chen Luo picked up the pen, wrote four words on the paper, and showed it to the three deputy prime ministers.
"Time limit for prosecution?" The three of them looked at the words on the paper, their eyes flickering.
"Yes!" Chen Luo nodded and said, "My idea is to add a time limit to all crimes."
"If this time limit has passed and no prosecution has been filed, the law will no longer pursue the case."
"For example, for the crime of five years of exile, if no one files a lawsuit and the other party keeps his peace during the prosecution period, then after the prosecution period, he can be found innocent. There is no need to hide his whole life because of this five-year sentence."
"Or for past cases, although I uphold legal justice, I will not pursue cases that happened a hundred years ago."
"Therefore, you need to work hard to come up with a reasonable length of time for each crime."
"What if it is a serious crime?" Gongsun Bo asked, "The lifespan of a great scholar is increased by heaven. If the prosecution period is over, he will be innocent? Isn't that too cheap?"
"I'll talk about this later." Chen Luo said, "Let's talk about the second one."
As Chen Luo spoke, he picked up the pen again and wrote on the paper: Commutation of sentence for meritorious service.
"In the previous law, the punishment was certain, so there was no room for it." Chen Luo said, "I intend to add conditions for commutation of the sentence."
"Whether you are serving a sentence or being imprisoned, you will have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds; surrendering and reporting will also be considered meritorious services."
Speaking of this, Chen Luo's eyes fell on Wu Yongzhi: "In past cases, there is indeed an unspoken rule that the punishment does not go to the noble family, and the law does not punish the saints."
"I will give the noble families of the world a month to correct themselves and examine themselves. Anyone who has been exiled for ten years or more will be sent to the six local gates on his own initiative. Counting meritorious service, the penalty will be reduced by one level. If he was punished by family law at that time , the sentence can also be reduced, and the degree of reduction depends on the degree of punishment under family law. Reductions can be stacked."
Wu Yongzhi heard this and thought about it carefully. In this way, except for those who really committed serious crimes, the punishment for others is not unacceptable.
In the past, it was mainly because they were afraid that under strict investigation, every household would be required to wear mourning, but now it doesn't sound that bad after all.
You know, the family laws of some aristocratic and holy families are also very powerful. However, for those who are truly trained by the family, the chance of committing a serious crime is still very small.
It is actually not common for family heads like An Songren to commit capital crimes.
For many families, the current situation has met their psychological expectations as long as the dishonest family members can save their lives.
After all, the feeling of dragging a child out and being beaten is completely different from dragging a child out and being slaughtered.
As for face...
Everyone has unworthy descendants, who can be better than the other?
If one person is embarrassed, he is embarrassed. If everyone is embarrassed together, that is to destroy relatives and participate in the great governance of the world!
It’s time to add it to the family tree!
"Third..." Chen Luo continued to write four words: unforgivable sin!
"This is a serious crime!"
"For example, treason, rebellion, patricide, massacre and murder... There is no time limit for prosecution of these crimes, and there is no authority to commute sentences."
"But there is evidence, no matter how far away the world is, the vicissitudes of the world will not change his crime!"
Chen Xili nodded: "It should be so!"
Wu Yongzhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "This article, the holy family will not object."
Gongsun Bo looked at Chen Luo: "These three articles inject a touch of warmth into the cold law. It is in line with the true meaning of the law to treat illnesses and save people by avoiding past mistakes and avoiding future consequences."
Chen Luo put down his pen and said: "I just listed three frameworks, and you will have to work hard to add the details."
"How to determine the time limit for prosecution? How to calculate the credit for commutation of sentence? These are all big projects."
"My idea is to expand the scope of discussion, select some common people, select some aristocratic saints, and discuss it together, and finally come up with a fair plan."
"Before the plan is released, past documents can be put aside."
After hearing Chen Luo's words, the eyes of the three deputy prime ministers all fell on Chen Luo, and different thoughts came into their minds.
Gongsun Bo: This is national legislation, the first of its kind for Legalism. It seems that Legalism is destined to flourish!
Chen Xiliang: As expected of Chen Zhuguo, he is sincere and can easily delegate such great power. He is so loyal!
Wu Yongzhi: In this case, I am afraid that the focus of the Holy Family is on how to negotiate the charter, and they have no intention of opposing him. This idea is exactly what Linglong is thinking about!
…
The three deputy prime ministers left with satisfaction, and Chen Luo also breathed a sigh of relief.
For the time being, let’s use the time limit for prosecution and the regulations on commutation of sentences to stabilize the holy families of the world.
The trump card is at the back!
Chen Luo closed his eyes slightly, feeling the "Dream of Red Mansions" in his mind.
Perhaps it was because "Dream of Red Mansions" was completed at the end, so unlike other books, Chen Luo knew the spirit of the book "Dream of Red Mansions" in advance this time.
Twelve golden hairpins!
After the book is completed, the book spirit of the twelve golden hairpins will be condensed.
Every golden hairpin that comes will absorb 10% of the family's luck and feed back to the human race.
Theoretically, as long as ten golden hairpins arrive, the family's luck will be gone and it will be no different from a poor family!
The Saints are slightly stronger. Because there are Saints alive, they can gain an additional 20% of the luck of the Holy Path.
It just so happened that there were twelve people in Jinchai!
This is a nuclear weapon!
With this, there is a basis for establishing the "Law of the Clan". If this law is truly established, the imperial court will have control over the holy families, and the internal cancer of the human race will be cured.
"But..." Chen Luo touched his chin, "If I write "A Dream of Red Mansions" now, will it be too conspicuous?"
"Is it inevitable that it will trigger associations?"
Chen Luo thought for a while: "How about another vest?"
"Remove the mythical parts at the beginning and regard "Dream of Red Mansions" as a romance of three thousand miles. It is reasonable that a descendant of an aristocratic family can write it..."
"Well, let's release a few chapters of "Journey to the West" first to divert the attention of the people of the world and the saints of the aristocratic families."
Chen Luo made up his mind, took out a blank piece of paper, and prepared to continue writing "Journey to the West".
Suddenly, Chen Luo's hand paused.
"Huh? Speaking of which, we are going to Chechi Country soon..."
"Does Feng Nanzhi think that I'm using the Great Immortal of Tiger Power to deal with her..."
