Chapter 430: Matters of the Law
Hearing what Zhao Mu said, Li Er stood aside in a daze.
looked at it with a blank expression.
"I said, Brother Xian, why don't I understand what you said?
How did you say that this thing became like this? ”
Seeing Lao Li's bewildered expression, Zhao Mu shook his head.
"Lao Li, let me tell you this, historical experience tells us that a group of death row prisoners, if Li Er puts them back because of this group of death row prisoners.
It is for this reason that all the people returned, and it was for this reason that these death row inmates could be spared the death penalty or acquitted.
This method is called the rule of man.
The most essential difference between the so-called rule of man is that a person's thoughts are used as changes.
The aspect of human healing is that what can be done is immediate, and it can be dictatorial.
But the biggest drawback of this matter is that if you want the country to be strong, you need a monarch with a particularly strong ideological consciousness to rule.
For example, the current emperor Li Er, you have to admit that he is such a powerful emperor.
But to put it mildly, there are only a few people who can be called the first emperor of the ages, and he Li Er is also one of them.
If it is such an emperor through the ages, he has the ability to achieve human rule.
After all, he, Li Er, and those followers are all working in the group, and they are sincerely doing things for Datang.
Everyone is like this, and this group of people who fight the country hope that everything will be prosperous forever.
But this wave of people who sit in the country may not be necessarily.
The most essential difference between the rule of man is that it requires man to rule by himself.
He Li Er has such a ability, but he can rule by man, because he, the emperor, knows very well what to do and what not to do.
It is also possible that his next emperor will remember his father's teachings, and like his father, he will be able to continue to rule this huge empire.
But let me ask you, it's okay to say that this second generation is okay, what about these three generations and four generations of emperors?
At that time, the interests involved will not be his alone.
If you want me to say, he, Li Er, now has the ability to lay this foundation.
If this foundation is not good, in fact, for Datang, in the end, there is only one way to destroy. ”
"Ah, Brother Xian, the second question is another family, I think you are talking about this thing a little too scary, right?"
"So terrible? It's not that I'm terrible, it's just that you haven't studied this history because of it.
Let me tell you this, a dynasty wants to prosper.
It is not only the monarch and the ministers who need to be united, but also the establishment of the law.
Only by acting upward and downward can the whole world be stable for a long time.
For example, the saying that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people.
There are many dynasties saying it, but how many are really able to do it?
If it is said that the establishment of the law of the Tang Dynasty can really achieve the same crime as the common people when the Son of Heaven breaks the law.
Even if the emperor's own son commits a crime, he must punish me as he punishes according to the law.
If this is known to the people, I ask you, what will the people say about it?
The people will definitely feel that what His Majesty said in the court is right and trust the court.
Remember what I said, there is no need to reason with the people, because you can't understand what you want to reason with them.
If all the truths can be explained, everyone will become his Li Er.
It's because this people can't listen to your reasoning, so you can only do things so that the big guy can clearly see and touch them.
Even if you say 1,000 ways and 10,000 yuan, and you tell all the daylilies, the big guy can't see the real thing, and he doesn't trust you.
On the other hand, if you really do this thing, in fact, if you want me to talk about this thing, it is also a good thing for him Li Er. ”
"Brother Xian, what's the good of this?
Tell us about it, and we'll hear about it. ”
"As I said before, if you reason with these people, they can't figure it out.
They only believe that seeing is believing, and hearing is false.
If the law is strictly followed, they will think that such a monarch can be convincing.
I can't comment on other dynasties, but now this Tang Dynasty.
It's not just Li Er's words, right?
The one who can fight against the court is the children of the clan, right?
Especially the seven clans known as the Tang Dynasty, and the people like to call them the seven families.
The strength of each of their families should not be underestimated.
In addition to the seven of them, there are countless clans connected to their seven families.
As the saying goes, one hair moves the whole body, and now he Li Er and them have taken a very balanced relationship.
As the emperor, he didn't want the existence of the clan, but this group of clans was like a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, and it pierced Li Er's heart deeply.
Let Li Er want to handle it, but he can't handle it. ”
Speaking of this, his expression tightened, and he had to sigh helplessly in his heart.
Secretly pondered.
That's what Brother Xian said.
But there is no way, what if you want to take care of these things?
How can you handle it?
"Actually, that's what I'm telling you, do you know about the upward and downward effects?
If he Li Er's royal family made a mistake, don't go to the end, because he is a member of the royal family, while shouting that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, he walked through the back door.
Then let me ask you, if this group of clan disciples and some of their children are ready to arrest them because they have violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
If you are Li Er, what should you do? ”
"Brother Xian, of course, you can deal with it as you want."
"I just finished talking about the upward and downward effects, how did it come to the end, why did this person in the royal family break the law, make mistakes, and in the end there is no.
And why pay such a price for the mistakes they make that are smaller than their mistakes?
Remember, if you really don't dare to say this to ordinary people, who will make them have a low status?
But for those clan children, do you think they would say such words? ”
"Brother Xian, this?"
This group of clan children has been like this since ancient times, and they are deeply rooted.
Unless the common people below start to lead the troops to revolt, slaughter the whole world, slaughter all these clans, and completely purge, maybe this clan can be wiped out.
However, in this case, the entire Datang will cease to exist.
The clan and the court are related to each other, and they are not related to each other.
It's like the Sui Dynasty fell, but this clan still exists.
On the contrary, if this group of clans does not exist, there is a high probability that this dynasty will not exist.
"But Brother Xian, can't this group of clan children really be suppressed?"
"Repression, what do you take to suppress? Take your head? Take your head?
Unless there is a strong force on the court's side, it is absolutely impossible.
So to go back to what I said earlier, I ask you, what would be the price you would pay if you did that? ”
"Brother Xian, this?"
"Brother Xian, then tell me quickly, how can you suppress these clans for him?"
"Why do you want to hear it?"
"Brother Xian, tell me, you have already started this head, if you don't say it, my heart is itching."
"I'll tell you, in fact, 12 words are enough.
There are laws to follow, laws must be followed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be prosecuted.
To rule by man, we should try our best to move too far into the rule of law and step aside in the rule of law.
If you think about it, it is still what I just said, if the son of his emperor Lao'er makes a mistake, he will be beaten, punished, and severely punished.
If you catch the people of this group of clan children who have made mistakes, I ask you, do anyone dare to intercede?
If someone intercedes, is it true that this emperor can directly talk about the mistakes made by his own heirs or members of the royal family, and the things that have been punished?
Everyone said that they should abide by this law together, is it possible that you still want to play tricks?
I ask you, won't this matter be much easier to deal with at that time?
What if you are angry, if the people of the world know about it, and I ask you about this guild, will they think that what the court did right or what the court did was wrong?
Although the people can't be reasonable, their hearts are actually like a mirror.
You have to remember one sentence, don't take the people for fools.
It's just that there are some things that they don't have the right to talk about.
In this way, if there is something on the court's side, will the people take the lead and charge ahead?
This?
"You, understand and understand what it means to go up and down.
And if this matter is strictly implemented, it will have a profound impact on the entire Datang at present, and even in the past 10 years and 100 years.
Why is the fate of the world's dynasties only 300 years?
In the back, it was nothing more than that the people in front had land, and later they were completely monopolized by that group of landlords.
If the people have no land, there will only be contradictions, and then the contradictions will further intensify.
In the end, all the contradictions are irreconcilable, and there can only be rebellion.
As long as there is a wave of rebellion, there will be a constant rebellion.
Later, the dynasty collapsed, and if the law could be established, it would be effective from the top to the bottom.
Who would dare to touch the law at will?
If you touch the law and kill it, you don't need to listen to anyone's explanation.
In this way, perhaps, I think this dynasty can really withstand and even break the fate of 300 years.
Hearing what Zhao Mu said, Li Er only felt that his brain was buzzing.
I never thought that this would happen like this.
Hearing what the virtuous brother said today, my mind can be described as an enlightenment.
If what Brother Xian said is true, his previous thoughts will definitely deal a fatal blow to my future in Datang.
"Brother Xian, listen to you say this, if they come back from 300 death row prisoners.
If you should still kill it, you have to kill it, so that you can experience the strictness of my Datang's laws. ”
Zhao Mu nodded, allowing them, the death row prisoners, to return to their hometowns to visit, was already a great gift to them.
You feel that this group of death row prisoners is pitiful, but the mistakes they have made, aren't the innocent people who were harmed by them miserable?
Everyone likes to pity those who can see and touch.
For example, if someone makes a mistake, he will be severely punished by the law.
There are many people who are overflowing with sympathy, thinking that such a punishment is too bad.
As everyone knows, some of them have done even more vicious and hateful things before.
"Brother Xian, when you said this, I suddenly realized.
I found that if you don't say it, just say it every time, it makes too much sense.
Let me Lao Li listen to it, I have to admire, or that sentence, I don't know what you have in your head.
Do you want to pry it open and take a look? ”
The latter sentence was whispered in his mouth, and then he smiled, and then looked at Zhao Mu again.
Hey, whatever, what the hell is it, it's okay with us.
But I'll have to wake up early tomorrow to see the excitement.
Zhao Mu nodded.
Feel free for you!
Brother Xian, I know that what we say is that we should be nagging ourselves.
Don't let anyone else know, the other things have nothing to do with us, and we don't need to worry about anything.
What do you say I said?
"Lao Li, you have finally come to your senses, you have to remember that this person is like this many times.
No one will listen to what you say until you have the strength.
However, if you have this strength, even if you put a fart, it will be fragrant. ”
Li Er laughed when he heard this.
What the virtuous brother said is reasonable, hahahaha.
After chatting in Zhaojiazhuang, he rested for a night, got into the carriage the next morning, and ran quickly in the direction of Chang'an.
Arrived at Chang'an City, came to the Taiji Palace, and looked up at the eldest grandson Wuji.
"Auxiliary, do you remember the 12 words you said Brother Xian?"
"Your Majesty, Wechen has already remembered."
"Someone came to spread my will, and asked the officials of the Criminal Department to come to see me."
After a while, the ministers of the Criminal Department arrived at the palace and saw the saint in the Taiji Palace.
When everyone came to the palace, they actually understood that His Majesty had summoned them all over today.
He bowed and spoke.
"Your Majesty, in the past two days, one after another death row prisoners have returned to Chang'an City.
After returning to Chang'an City, we have sent people to escort them to the prison.
At present, more than 40 people have not returned, but today is the 30th day agreed by His Majesty.
Wei Chen felt that they should be able to return to Chang'an City before the curfew came tonight, and asked His Majesty to rest assured. ”
At the end of the sentence was added.
"Your Majesty, if it was before the curfew, their group had not returned to Chang'an.
Wechen must send someone to arrest him. ”
