Li Yuanji's heartfelt words made everyone fall into a deep thought.

Yes, there are some things that someone has to do.

Although there are times when those who do these things may not get much benefit, for future generations, it is the cornerstone of soaring.

No one can ascend to the sky in one step, if there is no accumulation of predecessors, then what they are doing now is the process of accumulation, if they don't do it, then this process will be left to future generations.

The rise and fall of the country, the prosperity of the nation, if no one is willing to give up something, how can we talk about it?

Fortunately, they live in this era, this era with Li Yuanji's human figure, although some things still need to be accumulated, but in the general direction, they will not go wrong, this is the benefit of the accumulation of predecessors, this is the benefit of experience.

Experience is not omnipotent, but without experience, it is absolutely impossible.

The train was moving in a hurry, neither fast nor slow, but it was still very exciting for people who were used to horse-drawn carriages or walking.

The breeze was blowing, and looking at the rapidly retreating trees and people below, everyone's face was full of smiles and shock.

The experience went smoothly and the effect was naturally good.

The invited people circled the train several times, and experts from the Academy of Sciences explained some basic principles for them, but the really useful things were not mentioned in a word, anyway, to summarize and summarize, it is a sentence, the power of science and technology.

Although the old men were also confused, they always understood one thing in the end.

This thing is a machine, it can be controlled by people, let him go, let him stop, he stops, he doesn't need to eat feed, he doesn't need to pee and, he doesn't lose his temper, he doesn't shout tired, as long as there is enough coal and water, he can run to the wasteland......

Okay, that's a bit of, but that's what it means.

Only after experiencing it for yourself can the words spoken be more credible.

Soon, the news about the train spread throughout Datang, and the previous ghost theory was naturally untenable, and it was rapidly retreating at a speed of thousands of kilometers per hour.

While the train continued to be tested, crowds of people were still surrounding the railroad on both sides.

However, these are all to see the excitement, no matter when, no matter what era, the characteristics of the Chinese to watch the excitement will never change.

And when there are more people watching the excitement, it is natural that some regrettable problems cannot be avoided.

For example, in a test, someone accidentally ran onto the tracks, but because they didn't have time to leave, and the train was limited by the problem of line of sight, it was not able to take braking measures in time, and the distance was too close, even if the braking measures were useless.

As a result, one person was killed directly, but there was much more to it than that.

Shortly after the train hit and killed someone, someone became curious and wanted to get on the train and experience that feeling.

At this time, the train was testing the load, and although there were people in each carriage, there were not many people and could not observe every corner.

So the problem arises, some people successfully pick up the train, but there are also people who miss because of it, and some people are lucky, and when they miss, they also know how to throw themselves out, and the result is a fall and a fracture.

There are also people who are unlucky, because the timing is not accurate, and the result is directly under the wheel, and the fate is naturally needless to say.

A series of accidents, and this kind of accident, made them feel comfortable with the train test.

There weren't many problems with the train itself, but this kind of accident happened one after another, and it was impossible to put it on anyone as nothing.

As a result, Li Yuanji could only order all prefectures and counties to strictly prohibit the people from approaching the railway.

The orders of the government are just orders, the world is so big, and there are so many people, there are always a few people who do not believe in evil.

In order to completely eradicate this phenomenon and establish a correct value at the same time, Li Yuanji also ordered another very inhumane order.

Accountability for the families of the deceased.

Yes, it's accountability.

In China, there has always been a saying that the dead are the greatest, and in later generations, this behavior has even been aggravated and distorted a lot, and even divided the crowd into several levels, such as the disadvantaged groups.

While this is humanitarian, it is not a good approach and is not conducive to the establishment of rules.

In order to prevent the emergence of the porcelain party and fundamentally solve this problem, Li Yuanji can only choose to be held responsible.

……

The Chang'an Court, a department that was just established at the beginning of this year, has its responsibilities assigned from the government, although there are still many places in Datang that are still under the full responsibility of the government, but that kind of life will not last long, and within three or five years, it will be replaced by this new system.

Since its establishment, the Chang'an Court has also accepted a lot of cases, and the cases are divided into two types, criminal cases and civil cases, as in later generations, criminal cases must be organized by the Marquis of Wuhou and submitted for trial, and civil cases can be submitted by individuals.

Because of the experience of having a year in Jingyang County and the importance of Chang'an, many officials here are transferred from Jingyang County.

At the same time as bringing new people, they are also improving themselves and supplementing the basic qualities of leaders, and when these new people grow up, they will be promoted and transferred to other places, and in this way, this whole system is quickly established.

However, today's Chang'an court has received a case that is a headache for them.

The case was difficult to adjudicate and the subject matter was complex, and there had never been such a case before.

In the past, it was always said that the people would not sue the officials, because if they did, they would not win.

But now there is a case where the official wants to sue the people, how can this be judged? No matter how they are judged, the people will feel that they are biased in favor of the government, and there are dead people on the other side.

"Director, this case is very tricky, if it is not done well, I am afraid it will cause a storm." Inside the court, after getting the case information, the newly recruited Huang Ning had a sad face.

"Yes, Director, there is no precedent for this kind of case, and our handling this time is likely to become a guiding point for dealing with similar cases in the future. The other nodded in agreement.

Niu Zhuang was an official transferred from Jingyang County, and he was also one of the first court members, and he was only a clerk at the beginning, responsible for recording the progress of the case and the opening of the trial.

Before being transferred to Chang'an, he passed the examination and inquiry, and then he was promoted from clerk to director, but this director was not qualified to hear cases.

Niu Zhuang's responsibility is to carry out the preliminary handling of the case, which is divided into several parts.

The first part is naturally to decide whether the case is accepted, the process is not complicated, for the court, no case can not be accepted, provided that the information submitted is complete enough, what they have to do is to review the information, so as to decide whether to accept or mediate.

The second part is the basic disposition of the case, which refers to the sorting and comparison of the case materials in advance, that is, the preliminary trial of each accusation, each of which must be marked with the provisions of the law, which is actually what the judge does.

But there are so many cases, and the judges are too busy to have time to do these preparations, so they can only leave it to them.

After the judge gets the information, he only needs to read it in detail, so that he can know it in his heart, and then hold a trial and make a judgment according to the description of the parties, which will greatly improve work efficiency and train others at the same time.

In a certain way, Niu Zhuang's work, when it reaches a certain level, can serve as a judge.

As a matter of fact, as long as the people in this department pass various examinations, they will be the main candidates for judges in the future.

"What do you think of this case?" Niu Zhuang has a wealth of experience in dealing with it, although he also has some doubts in his heart, but he still has not forgotten his responsibilities.

"Director, the death of a person is great, this is another official lawsuit against the people, if our verdict is in favor of the Academy of Sciences, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people, so I think it is more appropriate to mediate in private." Huang Ning thought about it and wanted to minimize the impact of this case as much as possible.

"Yes, Director, after all, it is a dead person, and the Academy of Sciences will hold it accountable, which seems to be a bit unspeakable."

"I think it's good that the family of the deceased didn't come to make trouble, after all, they died unexpectedly......

The crowd was gossiping, and none of the results were favorable to the Academy of Sciences.

Niu Zhuang shook his head, the Academy of Sciences is an official institution and a unit directly managed by the emperor, if there is no permission from the emperor, will they be held accountable?

Even if the emperor did not directly order them to tell them how to deal with it, but in fact, the Academy of Sciences can submit the complaint to the court, doesn't this exactly explain what the emperor meant?

"This case is handled according to normal procedures, and it is not allowed to take sides in any party, and I will go to several other directors to discuss the division of responsibility, and you will solve the other problems first." Niu Zhuang commanded directly.

He is also very tricky in this case, how to divide the responsibility? This is a problem because the law does not provide for this, and the absence of provisions means that there is no responsibility, which is a loophole in the law, and the only solution is to change the law and add a gap in this area.

But before that, it was very difficult to deal with this kind of case, there was no law to follow, and no matter how it was handled, there would be one of them, or both parties would be dissatisfied.

The Court has faced the most serious difficulties since its establishment, and this difficulty is not something they can solve.

Niu Zhuang quickly found several other directors, and also found his superiors to discuss the case together, and the result of the discussion for a long time was that he went according to the normal process and adjourned the court to discuss when he encountered problems, which was also a helpless thing.
