Chapter 424: Qin Law

"I say rest, rest!" Hong Lianshuo looked at Lin Nanzheng with a straight face and said.

"Okay, then let's rest for a day, and we will come to repair the river embankment tomorrow." Lin Nanzheng nodded in response when he heard this.

This embankment has to be repaired by the army, and it won't be many days before it freezes.

The ground was frozen and hard, and the pickaxe went down, and the land did not move, leaving only shallow white marks.

So! In and outside the city, except for the old man and children, the frail and unwell women were on both sides of the Wuding River.

Hong Lianshuo watched Lin Nanzheng leave and continue to pick up soil.

&*&

It has been snowing heavily for two days and two nights, and the sky and the earth are white.

The embankment can't be repaired, and it can't be trained, so all the people are on the kang at home.

"Grandma's, fortunately, this year's fire is on the kang, if it was in previous years, I would have to freeze to death." Lin Nanzheng stomped on the snow trail, "Lady Hong, can we come in?" ”

"Come in, come in." Hong Lianshuo, who was standing in front of the sand table, shouted at them.

"The snow won't stop for a while. The freshly swept snow is falling another layer. Han Baohu opened the curtain and walked in, arched his hand and said, "Hong Niangzi." ”

"See for yourself!" Hong Lianshuo said without raising his head.

Jiang Shuisheng, who walked at the end, closed the door, walked to the brazier, and added some firewood.

"It's too cold in this room." Han Baohu looked at the empty room and said, "Two more braziers should be added." ”

"No matter how much you add, it's not as comfortable as the kang." Lin Nanzheng put his hands in his sleeve cage and said in a muffled voice.

"This sand table is almost ready, don't bother with that." Hong Lianshuo said without raising his head.

"It's exactly like the real thing." Han Baohu stood in front of the sand table and looked at the landforms around Yandu City, and couldn't help but admire.

Lin Nanzheng was amazed, and his phoenix eyes looked directly at her and said, "Your craft is also unique in the whole world." ”

"Don't worry about this boast, you have to win the battle. Otherwise, it's just talk on paper. Hong Lianshuo continued to bend over and kept busy, "This is not just for seeing. ”

"Understood." Jiang Shuisheng nodded hurriedly when he heard this, "The brothers are as hungry and thirsty as wolves, and they are all looking forward to doing a good job." ”

Hong Lianshuo came to an end, straightened up and looked at them with a smile on his eyebrows and said, "Why are you here?" "Go to the brazier and sit down on the horse and make a fire.

Under the snow, he could not repair the river embankment, nor could he train, so he could only lecture the soldiers in the house about military books and battle strategies.

"There's still some time before the afternoon class, so I'll come and have a look." Han Baohu stared at the sand table without blinking.

"Come and sit down, it's warmer here." Hong Lianshuo lit the small horse around the brazier.

"Let's see." Lin Nanzheng stared at the sand table without blinking.

"Have you read the law these days?" Hong Lianshuo rolled his hands and said casually.

Speaking of this, there are many bamboo slips of the law that have to be carried by chariots. It's not easy to read it all. Han Baohu walked over, lifted his pants, sat down and looked at her, and said.

"It's okay, take your time." Hong Lianshuo hooked the corners of his lips and smiled slightly.

"I've looked at the law too, and I've been thinking about something." Lin Nanzheng walked over and looked at them and said.

"What's the matter?" Hong Lianshuo looked up at him slightly and said.

Lin Nanzheng sat down, stretched out his hand to bake the fire and said, "Do you say that this person is inherently good or evil." ”

"Sex is good! The moment a child is born, nothing happens. Jiang Shuisheng thought about it and said, bent down and pulled Xiao Mazha to sit down.

"If you want to say that at the beginning of human beings, their nature is good, then why are there still people who break the law and even seriously kill people." Hong Lianshuo asked as he looked directly at him.

"What about human nature?" Lin Nanzheng shook his head slightly and said, "But there are also kind people, good people!" ”

"It doesn't seem to make sense." Han Baohu blinked at them and said, his gaze fell on Hong Lianshuo and said, "What do you think?" ”

"I believe in the emptiness of man's original nature." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with cold eyes and said.

"Empty? Nothing? Jiang Shuisheng's black eyes flashed and looked at her and said.

"A child is born with a blank slate, what has become of it? It depends on the environment in which he grew up. Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep and upright eyes and said.

"Growing up? You said that this reminds me of the three migrations of Meng Mu. When Han Baohu heard this, the brown Tong Ren looked at her brightly and said.

"That's right!" Hong Lianshuo's warm eyes looked at them and said, "Children with blank sheets of paper need the guidance of human ethics and the severe punishment of the law. In this way, the two-pronged approach can converge the evil in human nature. Seriously, he added, "Any lack of punishment for evil will only encourage the arrogance of evil." ”

"The harsh punishment you admire has restored the Qin law." Han Baohu's light brown Tong Ren looked at her and said.

"If you want to say that, I am advocating strict punishment and strict law, because sometimes if you don't do this, you can't deter the younger people." Hong Lianshuo said gently, "Of course, this specific problem has been analyzed in detail. The conversation changed, "Qin Law is not as strict as you think. ”

"How is that possible?" When Lin Nanzheng heard this, he immediately retorted, "Qin's law is strict, and he chops his hands and feet, digs his knees, beheads his waist, and is punished five times at every turn. When Shang Ying first practiced the Qin Law, he personally executed the prison on the shore of Weishui, and beheaded more than 700 people in one day. The fingers that were cut, the feet that were broken, and the amount of buckets in the car were unbearable, and the entire Wei River was dyed red. ”

Han Baohu shuddered and said, "This Qin law is not only strict but also extremely detailed, all aspects of life are strictly restricted, the people must be cautious, if they are not careful, they will break the law, and they will be punished if they break the law." ”

"During the Warring States Period, Lu Zhonglian once commented on Qin Fa, if he let Qin rule himself, he would rather commit suicide by jumping into the sea." Lin Nanzheng said as he stared at her with phoenix eyes when he heard this.

"What you said is good, but Han Law is the inheritance of Qin Law. It's useless for you to deny this, you can compare it. Hong Lianshuo curled the corners of his lips and looked at them with a smile and said, raising his index finger and said, "There are seven heroes in the Warring States, but the Qin State has unified the world. ”

"This ......" Han Baohu and Lin Nanzheng looked at each other.

"In troubled times, you should use heavy codes! Sometimes it is necessary to enforce norms in order to be more efficient and to get the whole people moving. Hong Lianshuo pursed his lips and looked at them for a while, "It's like we are now under military control, rationing, and all the actions of the military and civilians are under command." This will certainly not last forever, and it will definitely change after next summer's harvest. Then he said, "In Qin, it was lazy to do this, and it was illegal to steal and play tricks." ”

"When you say that, I think of the ministers and concubines in Qin Fa." Lin Nanzheng turned his phoenix eyes to look at them lightly and said, "Because of my own crimes, or being captured, or relatives sitting together as officials and maids, the men are called ministers, and the women are called concubines." Qin Shi's concubine was sentenced to life imprisonment, but there was a way to redeem it. ”
