Chapter 1678: Punishment
Bi Yuan had a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't refute it in the end, because every rebuttal he made would be the same as the first rebuttal, and it would become the reason why Fang Yun despised him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The people raised you, not to let you trap them as slaves to the country, and the state entrusted them with important tasks, nor did they let you push Jingguo into the fire pit. The people have raised you so that we Jingguo people can at least sit on an equal footing with other people and will not be despised; the state has entrusted me with a heavy task so that you can help me to become the leader of the Jingguo country and become strong and prosperous! You don't want to do it? Yes, get out of the official office, I can guarantee that no one of the people will scold you for harming us Jingguo people by pointing at you who have no official status. But since you are in the Yamen and you are the secretary of the Xiangzhou Academy of Literature, you must let more Xiangzhou students succeed in the imperial examination, let more Xiangzhou students be loyal to Jingguo, and let more Xiangzhou students distinguish between friend and foe. Indeed, they can be unsuccessful, they can be disloyal to Jingguo, and they can not distinguish between enemies and me, but that's their business, if you don't do it, then you are dereliction of duty!"
Bi Yuan was speechless.
"Do you still want to quibble? I'll give you a chance. Fang Yun looked at Bi Yuan.
Bi Yuan gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Jingguo is weak, not enough to fight against Qingguo, not enough to keep the people rich and strong, not enough to drive out the demons and barbarians, isn't it a strange thing that people from such a country are admired by Xiangzhou students? Although Qingguo is an enemy country, they are strong and rich, if we can become Qingguo people, won't we be the same as Qingguo people? We don't have to be bullied by powerful countries, not slaughtered by demons, and not participate in official infighting, and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, isn't it good?"
Fang Yun blinked, and asked puzzledly: "Which country are you talking about?" Why don't you do this, if the Qingguo in your mouth and mind is more than thirty percent different from the Qingguo in reality, you will break your guts, how about it?"
"I firmly believe that it is better to be a Qingguo person than to be a Jingguo person!" Bi Yuan asked Fang Yun.
"I must admit that the average wealth of the people of Qingguo is higher than that of my Jingguo. However, the problem is that you are not from Qingguo, you are from Jingguo! Even if you go to Qingguo and become a Qingguo person, you are also a 'Qingguo person who used to be a Jingguo person'. There are people competing for every official position, every imperial examination quota, every shop and even every stall in Qingguo, why do they want to give it to you outsiders? If you are from Qingguo, if you annex Jingguo, will you give the benefits you get from Jingguo to your own people or to the people of Jingguo?"
"I ......" Bi Yuan didn't wait to speak, but was interrupted by Fang Yun.
"Let me tell you, Gyeongwong divides the benefits from Jingguo into three parts. The largest share was divided among the royal family, officials and families of Qingguo. The second largest part is given to you minions who worked hard for Qingguo to subvert Jingguo. The last remaining share, they will casually throw it to the hundreds of millions of people in Yuan Jingguo, and there will be a large number of Qingguo people participating in the competition for this benefit. You dog slaves will naturally gain benefits if you find a master and sell the vast majority of our Jingguo people, but what about the hundreds of millions of Jingguo people? You tell me with your courage, just say that as long as those hundreds of millions of Jingguo people become Qingguo people, they will be exactly the same as those rich Qingguo people, not the same as those low-level Qingguo people, and it is impossible to be inferior to those low-level Qingguo people! As long as you dare to swear with courage and say these words with courage, even if we are burdened with the infamy of hundreds of millions of people in Jingguo, we will help Qingguo annex Jingguo and let the people of Jingguo live a happy life that you have fabricated with your stupid and ignorant mind!"
Bi Yuan looked at Fang Yun, with a look of panic in his eyes, because Fang Yun said what he thought in his heart, he never cared about the situation after the hundreds of millions of people of Jingguo joined Qingguo, he only believed that once he joined Qingguo, he would inevitably get benefits, and he would inevitably be higher than his current official position and higher than his current civil position.
"There is nothing in this world that does not work for nothing, what can really make us go further, either sell others or improve ourselves, it has nothing to do with which academy or country we are in. Your so-called joining Qingguo will be fine, at first it was an excuse that you couldn't go further and make up for yourself, but now, it is an excuse for you to betray the people of Jingguo. ”
Bi Yuan looked at Fang Yun, only to feel that his heart was torn open by Fang Yun's hands, and his own courage was crushed by Fang Yunsheng.
Bi Yuan's Wen Palace shook.
"You...... I ......" Bi Yuan's body shook, sat back in his chair, and looked at Fang Yun weakly.
"There are many officials in Xiangzhou who are helping Qingguo and are hostile to Jingguo, these people are collectively referred to as 'Qingguan', do you know why I didn't look for these people but for you?" Fang Yunfa asked.
Bi Yuan couldn't answer, the world he saw was shaking all the time, and the fortune in front of him was very blurry.
"Then I'll tell you that the harm you have caused to the state and Jingguo alone is more serious than ten or even a hundred Qingguan! Therefore, you should be punished for your heart and punished for your crimes!" Fang Yun's voice exploded in Bi Yuan's ears.
Bi Yuan's face was bloodless, and only then did he understand that Fang Yun wanted to kill!
Fang Yun straightened his clothes, raised his head high, looked at Bi Yuan in front of him, and said, "I've finished what I should say." Reading that you are Hanlin, it can be regarded as a credit to the human race, I only say the last sentence, I can't punish the doctor. ”
After speaking, Fang Yun walked out of Bi Yuan's study.
Bi Yuan sat slumped in his chair, his face like ashes.
Kong Sheng, Zheng Xuan and Jia Yi have all explained that the meaning of the three is basically the same, if the doctor and other people with status commit a major crime, such as a capital crime, then the real crime should not be announced, nor should they be tied up and detained to the execution ground, but they should be given face and let them judge themselves at home.
However, there is another way of saying this sentence, which is that "superior" is the same as "respect", and that if you do not respect you, you will not be preferential, which means that everyone is equal before the law and will not give preferential treatment to doctors.
As for some people's belief that this sentence means that "doctors and other high-ranking officials should not be punished", it is purely misleading others and has ulterior motives.
Bi Yuan knows very well that there are only two explanations for "not being a doctor", so which one does Fang Yun want to choose?
If Bi Yuan didn't want to choose the first explanation, then Fang Yun would choose the second explanation for him.
Bi Yuan sat in the study in a daze for a long time.
On the second day, a piece of news spread throughout Xiangzhou and Jingqing.
The secretary of the Xiangzhou Prefecture Academy of Literature committed suicide in the study, and before he died, he injected his talent into a brush to form a Hanlin Wenbao pen.
Bi Yuan also left a suicide note, so that his children could be Jingguo people.
Officials and scholars from all over the country sent letters to comfort Bi Yuan's wife and children, and even Fang Yun expressed his condolences to Bi Fu on behalf of the Governor's Mansion and promised that Bi Yuan's family would be properly accommodated.
On the same day, Fang Yun went to the State Academy of Literature, exercised the power of the State Academy, and comprehensively formulated a new Xiangzhou Selected Reading Book, which was original and clear.
The time is getting closer and closer to August 12, and Dong Wencong is looking forward to Fang Yun's second battle letter more and more.
