Li Guang is brave and famous. However, in Liu Qi's mind, Li Guang belongs to the category of people who are restricted from use. Just because, Li Guang made mistakes that he shouldn't have made.

This starts with Li Guang's background and experience.

Li Guang is a native of Chengji, Longxi, and his ancestor is Li Xin, a famous general of the Qin Dynasty, who has practiced martial arts for generations. Growing up in this family atmosphere, Li Guang learned a good martial arts, especially archery, which is exquisite.

During the era of Emperor Wen, the Xiongnu invaded Xiaoguan in a big way. The young Li Guang carved a bow and a sword on his back, joined the army, and dared to fight on the battlefield, and his performance was very outstanding.

Emperor Wen Liu Heng specially summoned him, comforted him, and sighed: "It's a pity that you didn't meet the opportunity, if you were born in the era of Gaozu, it would be okay to seal the marquis of ten thousand households!" ”

In order to recuperate, the two emperors of Liu Heng and Liu Qi adopted a policy of strategic defense against the Xiongnu. On the foreign battlefield, Li Guang did not have many opportunities to make meritorious contributions.

During the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Li Guang was the captain of the cavalry, followed Zhou Yafu to quell the rebellion, made great contributions, and became famous.

Li Guang became famous, and trouble followed. Liu Wu, the king of Liang, was keen to recruit talents, and when he saw Li Guang, he tried his best to show favor and awarded him a letter of general seal.

Li Guang actually accepted it!

The rebellion was put down, and the court rewarded meritorious deeds. When looking at the list of meritorious personnel, Liu Qi crossed out Li Guang's name. "Li Guang is the general of King Liang, why do you need a reward from the imperial court!"

Li Guang didn't receive any reward. Liu Qi had a prejudice against Li Guang in his heart: this person cannot be trusted. Li Guang's talent, Liu Qi still needed, so he sent Li Guang to the northern border to be a guard.

A few years later, King Liang fell and died. The line on which Li Guang pinned his hopes was completely broken.

Regain your mood and wait for your time. Li Guang believes that he still has a chance, and in his lifetime, he will be able to make meritorious contributions to the marquis......

。

In Shangjun, where Li Guang was stationed, the Huns did not get a bargain. Two years later, in the spring, the Huns made a comeback and attacked Yanmen County. Feng Jing, the Taishou of Yanmen County of the Han Dynasty, died in battle.

After receiving the battle report, Liu Qi urgently mobilized the army to support Yanmen County. The Huns plundered in Yanmen Pass and took the initiative to retreat.

"God-damned Hun wolf!" Liu Qi was in a heavy mood. "I can't solve the problem of the Huns in my hands, so I can only leave it to future generations."

What made Liu Qi feel relieved was that the crown prince Liu Che was smart and studious, and he made rapid progress. The crown prince Fu Weiwan praised the crown prince's virtue in front of Liu Qi many times.

This year, a strange case occurred in the capital.

There was a man named Fang Nian, his stepmother killed his father, and Fang Nian killed his stepmother in order to avenge his father. The facts of the case are not complicated, and Fang Nian killed his stepmother, and he belonged to the family relatives who killed him by being inferior and respectful, and should be executed according to the crime of great rebellion. However, the motive for killing his stepmother in the year is to avenge his father and show filial piety. And in Dahan, filial piety is very highly respected.

Therefore, in accordance with the spirit of the "Spring and Autumn Prison Break," the prevention of the New Year should be dealt with lightly. The so-called Spring and Autumn Prison Sentence is based on its own intentions, and uses Confucian righteousness to analyze and convict the facts of the crime. However, if the reasons for leniency are not sufficient, it will lead to the destruction of the ethical order of the "Three Principles and Five Constants".

How to reconcile the ethical contradiction between "the son kills the stepmother" and "the son avenges the father"?

It was difficult for the judicial department to make a decision, and the case was finally reported to Liu Qi. Liu Qi also made a difficulty, and he couldn't judge for a while.

Coincidentally, the crown prince Liu Che came to greet his father.

Liu Qi had the heart to test his son, so he told Liu Che about the case, and at the end, he asked, "What do you think?" ”

Liu Che is already a fourteen-year-old young man, with soothing eyebrows and looking forward to Yeran. A few years ago, I just got married to my cousin Gillian.

After thinking for a while, Liu Chelang replied: "A stepmother is the same as a biological mother, but it is different from a biological mother. It is because of the marriage relationship between the stepmother and the father that the mother-child relationship is formed. In this case, the stepmother killed her father, and when she started, she and Fang Nian had already broken off. Therefore, it should be convicted of ordinary homicide and should not be punished as a crime of great treason. ”

"Very well said!" Listening to his son's words, Liu Qishu raised his brows and praised with his palms: "The people of Tingwei Mansion have been thinking about it for many days, but they haven't thought of it. You'll figure it out in a few words. ”

"Father praised it." Liu Che made a modest gesture.

"Haha!" Liu Qi was even happier and laughed heartily.
