Chapter 19 CorpusJurisCivilis
All the students of St. Paul's College in the seats whispered, but under the candlelight, Gawain opened the book with a look of ease, its cover was made of fine leather and gold edges, and the paper was all first-class calfskin, and it made a pleasant and solemn sound under the flipping of fingers, "This is the best gift I can give to your entourage, but it is also common to the whole of the Great Frontier and to the whole country of Tarsus, and it is not any private, not even my Gawain's. It was your Caesar who spent half a year sorting it out, the "Encyclopedia of the Law of Nations" by the ancient Emperor Justinian. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Hearing the name, many students began to be speechless.
The Corpus Juris Civilis is a treasure of all the spirits of the Roman Empire and the entire human race from ancient times to the present day, "the cause we have started with the sword may not last forever, but it will never be indelible" - it consists of four parts, namely, the Digesta, which symbolizes the previous ancient law, the Codex of the New Law (new in relation to Justinian's time), the Institutions, and the additional Supplement to the New Constitutional Decree Novellae.
After a long period of political and military turmoil, it slowly disappeared into obscurity, and lost its original sanctity, but now Anna has spent a lot of effort to put it back in order.
"It is actually composed of two main parts, public law, the law of polity, and private law, which is the law of nature, the law of the people, and the law of the citizens. After that, I will abolish all the evil and customary laws of the kingdom of Tarsus, such as the divine judgment in the monasteries and the teachings of the mosque Ulma, as well as the tribal case law with a slight Slavic and Saxon color, and allow only the laws based on the Encyclopedia of the Law of Nations. Six of you will be selected separately to follow the effects and reactions of the Code in detail during the administration of Pisidia and Atalia, and then when your term of office is over, you will be appointed Imperial Secretary of the Court of Justice, and more new and appropriate laws will be drawn up for the commercial, civil, criminal, and religious development of our country. After Gawain finished speaking, he closed his eyes and closed the tome, and then after a pause, his fingers stretched forward, avoiding the goblet full of cheese juice, and raised it in a colored glass with red wine, and his body also stood up, with a sincere look and tone, and said to all the students present who were about to take up their new duties, "From now on, you will be my wings and minions, and the land and achievements achieved by the sword on the battlefield cannot rest easy, and only what you maintain by law and discipline will last forever." Pisidia is a very important 'testing ground', where you will be in charge of administration, taxation, construction, and all sorts of things, and gain valuable experience, and Caesar and I are closely watching your cultivation and harvest on the other side. So - I wish you success! ”
After speaking, Gao Wen, who has never drunk alcohol in public, drank the bright red wine in his cup with his neck up.
"For the real Romana!" More than 60 college students were also very heroic and moved, and they all raised their glasses.
After the simple and solemn farewell banquet, Gawain, who was obviously a little blushing in the dormitory, laughed, wore a scarlet gold round-necked tunic with a scarlet gold round neck, tied up at the hem, and soft boots on his legs, and constantly raised his arms and slapped - in front of him, it was a Massoud whose head had begun to grow taller. Arslan, and the newborn calf-like Calle Adios. The four columns enclosed in light gauze form a complete space, with Gawain standing on one side and Massoud and Caleadius on the other.
"Ahh Massoud rushed forward, using the ancient Bulgarian wrestling method, and grabbed Gawain's belt in an attempt to drag the patron down, but Gawain only flicked it, and Massoud fell to the ground. Although the strong Caleadios was only two weeks old, he was already standing in the corner, shouting in clear words, "Great, perfect", "Are you swollen Massoud, wilt", and I don't know who learned these competitive words, anyway, Hetomia resolutely refused to carry the pot.
Anna, who was sitting next to her, shook her head slightly, then smiled and lowered her head to continue reading.
"Are you getting along well with your stepfather Branas? Did you learn from him in wrestling? ”
"Yes, my father said that every Roman man should learn swordsmanship, horsemanship, archery, and wrestling." Massoud could hardly see any trace of the Turkic prince on him now, and when he was easily overturned by the laughing Gawain, he stubbornly got up and replied while continuing the attack.
"Ten years from now, you can lead the young army of the palace for me."
"Of course, I'm like a hero like you."
At this point, Hetomia walked in and claimed that the merchant Bill Leoni had asked for an audience.
Billleoni remained here for now, actively co-opting the trade between the city of Pisa and the kingdom of Tarsus, and was also hired as a financial adviser, after he walked in to salute Caesar and the Grand Patron. The Ink Officer took the children away, and Billleoni took a gold coin from his robe.
Gawain squinted his eyes and took it, it was a very ordinary Byzantit gold coin at first glance, and it was engraved with the head of the previous emperor, but he soon noticed that there was a small mark in the inconspicuous corner of the gold coin's head, so he sneered and sent it to Anna, "Look, the box of 1,000 gold coins we donated to His Excellency Gerald of the Holy City Hospital has returned. ”
Anna also looked at it a few times, laughed the same way, bit her nails with her mouth, and then asked Biel Leoni, "Could this be a piecemeal return?" ”
"No, at that time a tenth of the gold coins in this box were marked with this special mark, and then all the gold coins were returned to the Italian Jewish land deed exchange, and they were handed over to us with great interest. The chief guarantor, His Royal Highness Caesar, I can only say that the other party probably returned to the original cash box after the count, and he didn't even bother to go through the normal procedures. Bill Leoni said.
"That is natural, when a greedy patriarch regards all donations to the Holy City as his own, he will of course despise and trample on all the trust and justice of this world. Well, this money is used by Lord Sambel ......" When Anna asked this question, Billleoni hurriedly bowed, then approached the couple and said what the gold coins were for.
"Great barbarian, the banner to punish traitors has been found." Anna leaned back in her chair and said in a slightly agitated tone, "But we promised Baldwin and Sister Goldhild that we won't say it for now." It is not too late for us to send them to the holy city to become kings of Jerusalem. ”
Gawain also turned his back and was full of ambition, "That's right, Bill Leoni, you will immediately act as an envoy to inform Baldwin and Bohemond - the established plan will not be affected in any way, and the grain, weapons, and horses will be stocked up this winter." In the spring of the following year, after the rainy season is over, we will march on Jerusalem! Those who stand in the way will be crushed. ”
