Remember [Biquge Chinese Network] in one second to provide you with wonderful reading.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A stick the thickness of an adult's arm rounded the air and fell heavily with the harsh sound of the wind.
The skin is open!
The clothes on the back of the scholar were lifted up, and everyone could see it clearly.
The flesh was instantly deformed, twisted, red, swollen, bruised, and finally cracked, and black bruises oozed out.
Terrible!
Pain!
Although it was not hit on his body, the onlookers actually felt empathy.
Many of them were even pale, and their eyes showed fear.
This is also the intention of public execution.
Deterrence!
Heavy law to intimidate the world.
so that the people would not dare to break the law.
"Ahh
"Ahh
"Ahh
The staff's sticks were heavy, and every time they fell, sweat and blood splashed.
However, after three or five sticks, the scholar fell into a coma again because of the pain.
The onlookers looked at the scholar whose skin was open, blood was flowing everywhere, and his breath had obviously become a lot weaker, and there was a trace of unbearable in his eyes.
Some people's faces are even stiffer, pale, and their whole body trembles. Apparently frightened.
"Cruel!"
"It's so cruel!"
"Cool officer!"
A few old people, looking at the scholar who was unconscious again, had unbearable expression in their eyes, and muttered in a low voice.
"It's not easy for this scholar. β
"Otherwise, how can you slander others?"
"Besides, there's something wrong with that butcher too. Who's to blame for opening the door and stealing it?"
"That's it!"
Listening to the people below, they didn't dare to refute loudly, but only dared to hide in the crowd, muttering with their throats and eyes, like mosquitoes, to vent their dissatisfaction.
Situ couldn't help but glance at it with disdain.
He had seen a lot of this kind of person in his previous life.
Appearances, identities, occupations, and even ethnicities are all very different, but they all share a common characteristic.
That is, compassion is overflowing, and he likes to stand on the moral high ground, as a saint, regardless of the reason, to provide protection to the weak.
Spit as much as you want. It never cares whether it will cause secondary harm to the victim or whether it will have a negative impact on society.
He thinks he is a messenger of justice, but in fact he is a person who fuels the trouble.
Some people may be unconvinced, thinking that this view is really extreme.
In fact, the verification is also very simple, just put yourself in their shoes.
If misfortune had happened to you, would you forgive, would you still have a Virgin?
Many people have given them the apt nickname "Madonna".
Prostitute!
That's a wonderful word!
In his previous life, Situ was one of them, and he used to sympathize with them.
Later, I found out that these people are a bunch of soft eggs. It's either unsatisfactory in reality, or there is a contusion in the soul. Cover your weakness with kindness and your cowardice with disdain.
Empty talk misleads the country, but hard work prospers the country!
After seeing the essence clearly, Situ Xing didn't have much affection for these bombastic people.
Unexpectedly, time and space have changed.
The Virgin is still there. I have to make Situ Xing feel the strong vitality of this species.
Dynasties and dynasties!
And so on!
Situ Xing sat upright, his eyes were cold, and there was no pity in his heart, let alone any wavering.
Merit to be rewarded!
If you make a mistake, you will be punished!
This is his philosophy and the purpose of Legalism.
As for others who think that the criminal law is too cruel, it is not a gentleman's doing.
Situ has always scoffed at this kind of person, no matter how many reasons he finds, if he is wrong, he is wrong, and if he is wrong, he will bear it.
There is no objection to this.
As long as you can give back to the people, what if you can be a cool official with bloody hands?
Beat!
Not only to fight, but also to fight hard!
It is necessary not only to remember this scholar, but also to the people around him. Only in this way can we achieve the purpose of "setting an example".
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Maybe it's because of too much fear. Maybe it's because the stick hits a certain acupuncture point.
The pale and distorted Confucian seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and suddenly the pylorus door opened, and the flow of Ah Duzhi flowed all over the ground, making the entire hall full of unpleasant smells.
Several officials stood there with ugly faces.
It's disgusting!
In such a situation, even if they are experienced, they are at a loss for a while. Donβt know whether to wind a watch or bark at the moon.
"This!"
"This!"
"This!"
The onlookers were also dumbfounded, with blank faces.
They were also shocked!
No one thought that the scholar would be beaten with and urine.
"Insulting Sven!"
"What an insult!"
"Cool officer!"
"That's cool!"
"Situ Xing is also a scholar, how can he be so cruel to his classmates. β
"I'm going to run and appeal ... β
A few people dressed as scholars, when they saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but feel depressed in their chests, their faces turned blue, and they glanced at Si Tuxing fiercely, and then turned around and squeezed out of the crowd.
Situ Xing looked up in surprise, because he actually felt a lot of malice just now. But when he wanted to find the source of the malice, he didn't find it.
He also knew that now was not the time to dig deeper.
In the end, I can only suppress this thought in my heart. The case continues.
"Fork down!"
Situ Xing looked at the Confucian who was in a coma and was full of feces and urine, covered his mouth and nose with his hand, and said with some disgust.
"No!"
"No!"
The two officials dragged Confucius away like a dead dog, and a few officials with quick hands and feet brought clean water and cleaned it vigorously, revealing the essence of cleanliness, and the smell was not so obvious.
"It's really useless, it's a scholar!"
Situ Xing looked at the scholar who was dragged away, his eyes showed a hint of disgust, and he said secretly in his heart.
"The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, as long as the official is in Zhibei County for one day, he will definitely let Zhibei County have a blue sky and a white day!"
"Color!"
"Color!"
"Color!"
Looking at the scholar who was dragged out like a dead dog, and the solemn oath of Situ Xing, the onlookers spontaneously cheered for him.
"Lord Qingtian!"
"Good officer!"
"Blessing to the people!"
"For one term as an official, for the benefit of one party!"
Although some people still criticized Situ for being too heavy, more people stretched out their thumbs and praised them heavily.
Situ Xing's body was straight, the spine behind him was like a dragon about to fly into the sky, and it was like a straight expression, his expression was solemn like a god in a temple, and his eyes looked straight ahead with an indescribable majesty.
But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that Si Tuxing's eyes are constantly shrinking, as if he has seen something unbelievable.
In fact, it is.
Because Situ Xing actually saw a trace of white dots rising from the people's bodies, like fireflies, and like gravel.
"What is this?"
Situ Xing's eyes kept shrinking, and he seemed calm on the surface, but his heart was already turbulent.
Public opinion!
People's hearts!
These white spots, which are like fireflies and dandelion seeds, are actually the hearts of the people.
More people's hearts is people's hope!
The hearts of the people seem insignificant, as fragile as dandelion seeds, as if a gust of wind can blow them away.
But when they got together, they were a different look.
Forming silks, forming belts, converging into streams, and condensing into rivers.
It is like the calm surface of a lake, and it is like a surging sea.
It seems to be quiet, but in fact, it contains the power of turning the world upside down and overwhelming the mountains and seas.
The people's hearts are like water!
Water can carry boats!
It can also capsize!
Situ Xing looked at everything in front of him, and another time and space suddenly appeared in his heart, the aphorism of Tang Taizong Li Shimin.
It's so apt.
It's only twelve words, but it vividly analyzes the changes in the hearts of the people, as well as greatness.
Looking at the countless white dots forming a long white river like a cloud brocade and an ocean, Si Tu Xing didn't know why, and an unspeakable fear rose in his heart.
Yes!
Fear!
Situ Xing, who dared to fight against fate, felt fear for the first time.
In the face of this force, he felt as humble as an ant, not because his strength had weakened, but because this power was too strong.
He had a feeling that in front of the great power of the people, whether it was a prince or a general, a noble family, or a strong sect, they were just a piece of sand in the dust.
Even the thousand-year-old dynasty and the 10,000-year-old sect, as long as they lose the hearts of the people, they will decay and collapse in an instant.
As Taizu said, those who win the hearts of the people win the world!
Even this heaven and earth cannot withstand the power of the people's will.
As long as you grasp the hearts of the people, you dare to change the world with a new look!
Is this the source of Legalist power, the essence of Legalist power?
Feeling the power of the people's hearts, every cell in Situ Xing's body trembled, and he seemed to see the way forward for the Legalists.
That is to be sympathetic to the people's strength and unite the people's hearts.
So as to exchange the hearts of the people for the hearts of heaven, so that people will win the sky!
Rumble!
Situ Xing's mind seemed to touch some unremarkable existence, and a bucket-thick thunderbolt suddenly fell from the air.
Although the thunderbolt did not hurt Situ under the interference of some invisible force, it did kick him out of a certain state of epiphany.
Before he woke up, Situ felt a trace of unconcealable fear from the sky.
Sky!
I'm scared!
Burst!
Burst!
Burst!
White dots symbolizing public opinion converge in the sky above the county government.
The red qi that symbolized the dragon qi of the dynasty suddenly tumbled up, condensed into a divine dragon, and kept shuttling. A trace of public opinion is like a stream of water intertwined in the air, forming streams and lakes.
It is like a torrent that drums over the county government, forming a wave of flood peaks higher than a wave.
Anyone who dares to stand in his way is bound to be thrown into the dust of history.
"The trend has come!"
"The hearts of the people are available!"
Feeling the unprecedented strength of public opinion, Situ Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a look of intoxication.
At this moment, an old woman dressed in sackcloth and wearing a mourning hat rushed to the court, fell to her knees, and wept in a mournful voice.
"Who's in the hall?"
"What grievances do you have, and who do you accuse them of?"
Situ Xing looked at the woman who was dressed in linen and filial piety all over her body, and her face was sad, she couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly asked. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
