Chapter 407: The Ancient World

Because of the opposition between the Zhongxing clan and the Zhi clan, the Fan family and the Xun group suffered an unprecedented crisis, and Shi Ying is brewing a new version of the "three alliances".

Therefore, Shi Ying targeted Zhao Ying, who had not yet encountered any strong winds and waves.

Shi Ying applied both soft and hard to Zhao Ying, forcing Zhao Ying to belong to the Fan family and the Zhongxing family.

In order to win over the Zhao family, Shi Ying encouraged Zhong Xingyin to marry his sister to the rest of the doctor Zhao Sheng, and Zhao Sheng was no longer the Handan family because his ancestor Zhao Zhan was sealed in Handan.

As a side branch of the Zhao family, the descendants of Zhao Zhan guarded Handan, the eastern strategic town of the Jin State for generations of the Zhao family.

In other words, the Handan clan and the Zhao clan originally belonged to the same clan, but the blood relatives had gradually drifted apart, so they became the focus of Shi Ying's attention. When Zhao Sheng died, the son of Zhao Sheng and Handan Ji (originally surnamed Ji, married in Handan, let's call it that) inherited his father's position and served as Handan's doctor.

The blood relationship between the Zhao family and the Handan clan was further estranged, and the Handan clan was further drawn closer by the Zhongxing clan and the Fan clan because of this nepotism.

The brilliant Shi Ying may have used Handan as a lever to pry the entire Zhao clan to operate with the Fan clan and the Bank of China clan.

The young Zhao Ying's obvious lack of political vision, and his hesitation to choose between interests made Shi Ying's ability to control him.

When Zhao Ying understood that this was a trap set for him by Shi Ying, he couldn't extricate himself!

This also laid the groundwork for the rebellion of the Zhao clan in Handan in the future.

Therefore, Qingji was not worried at all that Zhao Ying would follow Wu State's new policy and implement it in the Zhao family.

If the Zhao family becomes strong because of this, it will become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the other five qing.

At that time, a chaotic Jin Kingdom will undoubtedly be what Qingji expects the most.

It is worth mentioning that the strongest family in the Jin Kingdom at this time is the Fan family among the six Qings.

The greedy nature of Shi Ying is simply outrageous, and in the long process of the Jin hegemony withering day by day, Shi Ying "contributed" the most.

After the redistribution of domestic rights, Fan became the most powerful secretary in China under the leadership of Shi Ying.

Because the Jin Kingdom was the most powerful prince at that time, the Fan family naturally became a powerful clan that the whole world looked at!

"Zhao Shangqing, I don't know if in your opinion, there is anything wrong with the various policies of my Wu State?"

Qingji asked with a smile.

"This ......"

Zhao Ying hesitated.

"Zhao Shangqing, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Seeing Qingji being so open-minded, Zhao Ying bowed down and said: "Wu Hou, forgive Zhao Ying for being blunt, Wu Guo's new policy is very good." However, there is one point, Zhao Ying does not dare to agree. ”

"Please."

"The world is governed by benevolence, filial piety, propriety, and righteousness, or supplemented by the law, but Wu does the opposite, and re-rules the country, isn't it putting the cart before the horse?"

Zhao Ying said angrily.

He really dared to say it!

"Zhao Shangqing thinks that today's world is compared with the ancient world and folk customs?"

"This ...... Returning to Wuhou, if you look at it with the folk customs, the ancient world road is not forgotten, the night is not closed, there is no chicken and dog thief, the people are simple and there is little killing. ”

After a pause, Zhao Ying said again: "In today's world, although there are traitors and criminals in all countries, the hearts of the people are still there, and it is okay to educate with etiquette and righteousness. Like Wu Guo, who values the law so much, and rules the country with Jun, it is inevitable that the people of the country will complain! ”

Qingji shook his head and said: "Zhao Shangqing, the law has existed since ancient times. Xia Youyu was punished, Xia was punished with 200, Bin was sentenced to 300, palace was sentenced to 500, and the punishment was 1,000 each. ”

"The Shang Dynasty had soup punishment, and the criminal law of the Shang Dynasty was harsh, including death penalty, corporal punishment, exile, imprisonment, etc."

"Zhou has the "Lu Punishment", which contains 3,000 provisions on the five types of punishment for prisoners."

"In the past, Zheng Guo's ruling son produced 'casting the punishment book in Ding, thinking that it was the common law of the country', and Deng Xi compiled the 'bamboo punishment', and the widow heard that the Jin State also cast the punishment tripod and established the grammar, and Zhao Shangqing also participated in it back then, I don't know if it?"

“……”

Zhao Ying was quite embarrassed.

He himself knew the benefits of the rule of law, but he felt that Wu's criminal law was too harsh.

That year, in the second year of Wei Shu's reign, Shi Ying decided to clamp down on Wei Shu and resist his "nonsense" again, so Shi Ying wooed Xun Yin and controlled Zhao Ying to direct a famous "Casting Punishment Ding" drama.

They melted the 480 catties of iron they collected, melted and cast them into a tripod, and set up the law formulated in the era of Fan Xuanzi on the tripod.

This is the first time in the history of the Jin Kingdom that the national law has been clearly stated to the world, which has a very profound impact.

It is equivalent to announcing in the form of a law, at least in the Jin Kingdom, that the era of "not punishing doctors and courtesy" has become history and a thing of the past.

This matter was not yet completed, and it had caused a huge sensation at the time, causing the world to talk about it endlessly, and it was also strongly condemned by the scholars and doctors of the world.

Because this is a huge challenge, subversion and even trampling on Zhou Li.

Shi Ying is the actual controller, Xun Yin is the executor, and Zhao Ying seems to be just a stupid boy with a black cauldron!

Shi Ying's old spicy is far from being compared with Zhao Ying at that time, and his political qualifications make him even more unattainable.

The casting of the Punishment Ding had a far-reaching impact in the Jin State, marking a serious decline in the authority of the Jin consuls and the intensification of the country's centrifugal force.

When the Marquis of Jin is no longer the center of gravity of a country, Zhengqing can still replace him.

Now the authority of Zhengqing must also be monitored and restrained by the law of Shiying, and the centripetal force of the Jin State has been weakened even more seriously.

The most unfortunate thing is Zhao Ying, who carries the black pot for Shi Ying, and is paying the price for his youthful vigor, and has not been rehabilitated since he was wronged so much.

The later generations will attribute the feat of "casting the punishment tripod" to Zhao Ying, showing its progressiveness - slapping a swollen face and becoming fat!

……

Inside the Fengtian Temple.

Qingji wore a dark crown robe, wore a flat sky crown, sat on the throne, sat on the front of the throne, and held a daily court meeting with the ministers.

According to the rules set by Qingji, if there is no accident, the monarchs and ministers of Wu will hold a great court meeting every ten days.

If there is an urgent matter, it can be convened, and in case of some major problems, it will be held every three days, or every five days.

"The king, the minister has something to do!"

At this time, Ji Ran, who had been promoted to Dazai, stood up with a tooth wat in his hand.

"Please."

"The minister thinks that I, the state of Wu, should maintain the farmland and the mountains, rivers and lakes, and formulate the "Tian Law". In the following cases, timely rain and grain heading shall be reported in writing, i.e. the number of hectares of rain and heading, as well as the number of hectares of fields that have been cultivated and finally cultivated. ”

Ji Ran talked eloquently and said: "When it rains during the growing season, it is also necessary to immediately report the rainfall and the number of fields benefited. ”

"If there are droughts, storms, floods, locusts and other insect pests that damage the crops, report the number of damages."

"Counties that are close to each other will be sent by hand, and counties that are far away will be sent by post stations and delivered before the end of August."

"Good."

Qingji bowed slightly, and immediately played.

The law of "Tian Law" is still a pioneer!
