Chapter 411: Extinction

"Are you [www.biqudu.xyz] very proud?"

Early in the morning, Lu Lingqi asked Bai Tu while putting on her clothes.

Last night, the two of them calculated the accounts of Xiahou Juan, but as we all know, the accounts of the night cannot be written.

"From the day I got married, I was very proud." Bai Tu's emotional intelligence is online and hugged Lu Lingqi from behind and said.

"Phew!" Lu Lingqi's face turned red and snorted lightly.

"Okay, don't hold on to your guard, His Royal Highness the King of Chu still has something to do after that, right?" Lu Lingqi reminded.

When Bai Tu heard this, his face was depressed......

When he "settles accounts" at night, he said it well - didn't His Royal Highness the King of Chu say something "Women can hold up half the sky, and in the prosperity and development of the Chu State, the status of men and women is equally important"?

The matter of the princess, for the time being, I don't have the same knowledge as you, the recent matter of Wang Lang's table, let's solve it properly as soon as possible!

It is indeed a headache, but even if there is no such thing, Bai Tu will have a headache in this regard, after all, this is the main business of the King of Chu.

Dealing with government affairs very quickly as a condition, what kind of spirit is Lu Lingqi?

You don't need to beautify, you can write it directly into the history books!

As for what Bai Tu is having a headache......

In fact, in general, it is not an isolated case, but something that the Chu State must face now - why did Bai Tu focus on "recuperation" in the early days of the founding of the Chu State when the Chu State was gaining momentum?

In addition to exchanging the dividends of preliminary industrialization, it is also necessary to repair the hidden dangers brought about by preliminary industrialization!

For example, after the concentration of the workshop group, the problem of information exchange has been greatly accelerated, not only in the gossip that transmits white pictures, but also means that the people have more opportunities to be incited.

Just like Meng Yuan's "historical experience", when the imperial court is generally hated by the people, no matter what happens, don't concentrate the people in it, otherwise a river can be built to build a righteous army.

In fact, from the first time that "princes and generals, rather have a kind of" resounded in China, there are many such lessons, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang at the end of the Qin Dynasty were with soldiers, there were countless uprisings of canal-repairing laborers at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and Huangchao in the Tang Dynasty was also revolted with the people who served in forced labor......

For most of the uprisings, the initial agglomeration was often organized by the imperial court itself.

For this reason, in a group of old-fashioned concepts represented by Zhang Zhao, this is the "original sin" of the workshop, if it were not for Bai Tu's support for industrialization, and it has already achieved results, I am afraid that this original sin alone is enough for industrialization to be delayed indefinitely.

Of course, the state of Chu still has a very strong advantage in this regard, that is, the people's acceptance of the court of the state of Chu is very high, but it is necessary to prevent it from getting worse......

Not only did Bai Tu understand what this meant, but the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Ministry of Rites had also warned Bai Tu, even if they didn't know how Meng Yuan died, they also knew the importance of this aspect.

For this reason, Bai Tu also specially advised the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Rites to pay attention to the information explosion in a timely manner and establish channels for guidance and guidance.

Cao ...... Xiahou Juan came back at this time, and I have to say that he did help Bai Tu, and it is better to watch more operas than to be instigated by some strange sects.

This is just one aspect, a microcosm, the Criminal Department, which has been forging ahead, has recently encountered difficulties again...... It is not very accurate to say "again", and the difficulties of the criminal department have not stopped.

Wang Lang's performance to Bai Tu this time is also related to the "problem" that Lu Lingqi mentioned before!

The "Chu Law" has already been implemented, and in the new law, more emphasis is placed on the unity of husband and wife, and even the criminal department has taken the lead and directly went down to the local level, handling several cases involving "eating out of households" as a typical example.

Eating out of households, a kind of old social vice, that is, after the death of a man, if there is no heir, then the relatives and brothers, the neighbors, will divide the family property, and sell some of the bad ones, and use the money to set up a running water mat on the spot, until it is eaten and wiped clean.

It is said that if there is really no heir, it is okay to deal with it in this way, but in the grassroots clan folklore, the heir specifically refers to the son or grandson, and the wife and daughter are not among them, and can only watch the family break after the death, which is essentially the clan system to maintain its authority - in the clan system, it is emphasized that brothers with the same surname are closer than wives with foreign surnames.

Although the Criminal Department also encountered some obstacles before, most of the cases handled before were not widely implicated, at most of them were brothers who committed crimes against the wind, and they were all handled by the County Criminal Department and the County Criminal Hall.

However, the day before yesterday, Bai Tu was in Wancheng and received Wang Lang's recital......

There was a case that made him very difficult, that is, in a clan in Jianyang County, a young man in a house died young, and there was widespread resistance to women's inheritance rights, following the old customs, passing the "no queen" clansmen's property as clan property, ignoring his widow and young son, and bribing the county officials when the deed property was disposed of.

Supposedly, there is nothing difficult about this, and it will be dealt with according to the law?

However, there are still some peculiarities, when Bai Tu was in Jianyang before, the local criminal department naturally would not take such a trivial matter to the king of Chu, but reported it level by level, but when it came to Wang Lang, Wang Lang couldn't get the idea, and turned back to Bai Tu.

What peculiarities?

First, the scale of the clan involved is very large, but it is only simply "big", and there are no great characters and families; Second, this is not a general sense of eating out of households, not one household, but one, and note that the deceased has a young son......

Why is it absolutely one?

This branch has been passed down for four generations, but the foundation is very thick, and it is a small landlord in the clan, with dozens of hectares of land under his name.

And the young son left behind after his death is only five years old, and he seems to be a little stupid, he is not good at speaking at the age of five, and he has no adult close brothers and uncles, which is itself a template for the word "good bully".

Therefore, only 100 acres of land were left for his son, and the rest was used as the property of the whole clan, which was regarded as the public property of the whole clan, and it was not a problem that could be solved by asking an errand to persuade or persuade (physically) to a few households.

If it was placed a year ago, then this matter could end here, clan self-discipline is justice, and suing the county government will only despise this woman for having no rules and not abiding by women's morals.

However, now with the support of the national law of the Chu State, the widow sued the clan to the Criminal Division of Jianyang County......

This also involves another "special" feature of this case - compared with the previous typical cases, Jianyang is in Nanyang County, Jingzhou, between Wancheng and Xinye.

Because it was incorporated into the rule of Bai Tu relatively late and belonged to a region with a relatively weak sense of identity with the Chu State, the folk concept was also more conservative.

This woman is indeed insightful in thinking of complaints......

As for how to deal with it, Wang Lang was a little unsure, after all, Thorn Yang was originally a new place, and this time there was also a clan involved, if it was too urgent, I was afraid that it would intensify the conflict, too slow...... It affects the determination of the Criminal Department to implement the new law, as well as the people's confidence in the new law.

It is not only about inheritance law, but also about the national policy that "women can hold up half the sky".

Lu Lingqi had also seen this performance before, but this was not something that the chief of the guard should care about, and she didn't care too much.

It's just that after Xiahou Juan's incident, Lu Lingqi took the opportunity to bring up this problem to Bai Tu, urging him to deal with it as soon as possible......
