Chapter 13 Offering Treasures
"The rule of man is not as good as the rule of law... The rule of man is not as good as the rule of law! Li Yu shuddered and shouted, "The so-called law of the Tang Dynasty is fundamentally the rule of man, whether it is the lowest bad person or Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, this is the case!" ”
"Li Yu, you are bold!" Wang Si reprimanded Li Yu.
"Wang Si, let him continue." Empress Wu said with interest.
"The reason why the pre-Qin dynasty was united was because of the change of the law of Shang Ying, and when the other six countries were still governing people with people, Qin State had the consciousness that the Son of Heaven was guilty of the same crime as the common people, although the legal system was ruthless, it was fair to everyone, and the rule of man, the law became a means of punishing those who had no power and no power!
Take Shen Qing as an example, he dares to be so ignorant of the king's law, it is difficult for the officials to escape the blame, it is difficult to escape the blame for supervising the imperial history, and it is even more difficult for Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother to escape the blame!
If he dies or a group behind him, it will only be a filler, and the whole country will be like a house, the law will be its pillar, the bricks and tiles represent the civil and military officials, and the people of the whole world will live in the house! Li Yu said hoarsely, and the whole person instantly relaxed after speaking.
He didn't know what the use of saying this was in his heart, his actions were to challenge the patience of the martial queen.
The three officials looked at Li Yu with disdain, his behavior was undoubtedly a mayfly shaking the tree, and he was just quick to say for a while.
"Smack... Bang bang! Empress Wu clapped her face, "Okay!" Well said! ”
Li Yu was overjoyed in his heart and pursued after the victory: "Let the law finally be a scale in the hearts of the people, a guarantee of safety, and the most important thing is the trust in the royal family, which is also the will of the people." ”
Empress Wu listened with relish, what Li Yu said was very reasonable, the law was formulated by the royal family, which naturally represented the majesty of the royal family, and everyone could not disobey, but after thinking about it, would this weaken the imperial power, if the later emperor was mediocre... Thinking of this, Empress Wu couldn't help but feel sad secretly, will she eventually return to human rule?
"Haha... Hahaha! Empress Wu suddenly laughed, "Interesting, Li Yu, what you said is really interesting." ”
"Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, there is one of the most critical points in strict law."
Empress Wu blinked, "Say!" ”
"That's consciousness!"
"Consciousness?"
"Yes, a consciousness of doing things according to the rules, the law is greater than the human feelings, and the laws are not about human feelings! This is like Qin unifying the world before he can be called an emperor through the ages!
For thousands of years, chaotic and divided, we all have a consciousness in China, that is, to unify Kyushu, in order to be called the emperor! This is the consciousness of great unification, and the law I am talking about is strict, and everyone will act according to the rules and processes, which is also a consciousness, and it is the consciousness that the whole world should have! ”
Li Yu is extremely tired of the so-called so-called human sophistication, this time he helped Li Qingsheng also for money, he is willing to take risks, he pays the money, I sell my life, this is called the rules!
Empress Wu suddenly realized that she had also heard of the so-called doctrine of consciousness, whether it was the selflessness of Buddhism or the Taoist nature of Taoism, they were also conveying a kind of consciousness, and the law could not be like this.
Empress Wu's face was overjoyed, "Reward!" ”
Shangguan Wan'er paid close attention to everyone's expressions, Li Yu's unnaturalness, the helplessness of the three officials, and the pleasant face of the martial queen, she always felt that all this was carefully planned, and it was a tailor-made strategy for the martial queen.
Li Yu didn't have time to be happy, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted: "Thank Your Royal Highness the Empress Dowager for the reward!" ”
"Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, Li Yujie Bai Ding knows so much, I suspect that he was instructed by someone."
Empress Wu nodded, and then asked, "Li Yu, have you ever read?" ”
Li Yu's newly calmed heart raised his throat again, and he said unhurriedly: "As a child, the reason why I know these things is because my cousin used to be an official of the Criminal Department. ”
"Oh, yes, what's this man's name?"
"Li Qingsheng is currently in prison in Dali Temple."
Wang Si hurriedly explained: "Li Qingsheng is imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple. ”
Empress Wu nodded slightly and waved her hand, "Official Fu... No, check it out and then make a conclusion. ”
"No!" Wang Si saluted.
Li Yu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and accidentally found that Shen Qing, who was kneeling on the ground, had fainted on the ground, foaming at the mouth with his face on the floor.
In the prison of Dali Temple, Li Qingsheng was pacing back and forth anxiously, looking at Qin Mu in the opposite cell leisurely cutting his nails, he rushed over directly.
"Brother Qin, there won't be any accidents, right?"
"Accident?" Qin Mu snorted coldly in disdain, "Li Langzhong, this is a set of methods that I customized for the Empress Wu. ”
The set of stories he gave to Li Yu was a copy of the childhood experience of the martial arts, people, they are all emotional animals, and the martial arts are naturally no exception, the nonsense is to protect Li Yu's life, and the later suggestions are to realize the dreams of all those in power - the name is even called "the first emperor through the ages".
Qin Shi Huang's great achievements are the first benchmark for all later emperors, because his transformation is a milestone in human history.
No matter how long it has been, people living in Huaxia will remember his name.
"By the way, Brother Qin, what kind of two-pronged approach is what you said?" Li Qingsheng asked puzzled.
Qin Mu smiled slightly, "Wait." ”
In the palace, Li Yu walked slowly outside the hall, his walking speed getting faster and faster, for fear that Empress Wu would suddenly regret it.
Out of the hall gate, he looked at the smiling face that the delicate sunlight finally revealed, and hurried out.
"Oops! Look at it! ”
Li Yu came back to his senses, only to realize that he had bumped into someone.
He was stunned for a moment, the old man standing in front of him, wearing a Taoist robe, his white beard was as white and long as the dust in his hand, and he looked like a fairy wind and bones, but this immortal had a trace of dark clouds on his face, and he was a little unwilling.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Yu hurriedly apologized.
The old man shook off the dust, glanced at him, and walked towards the palace he had just left.
The Empress Wu in the palace held her temple with her right hand and fell into contemplation, Li Yu reminded him that since the first emperor went away, he had neglected too many other things in order to stabilize the regime, and as he was in his position, he should think more about the things that could make the country prosperous.
She had an idea in her heart that she would go down in history in her lifetime.
"Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, do you still want to read the other edicts?" Shangguan Wan'er asked.
"Oh?" Empress Wu glanced at Shangguan Wan'er.
Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and then handed it over.
As soon as Empress Wu finished reading it, she suddenly got up, staring at her big eyes and being very excited, "Come on, bring this person into the palace quickly!" ”
A loud voice sounded at the door: "Your Royal Highness the Queen Mother, the poor road has been waiting for a long time!" ”
Empress Wu was puzzled at first, and then looked at His Royal Highness's guards, how could this person come in without her permission?
"Xuan!"
The old Taoist priest walked in slowly, and the three officials looked at him in unison, their hearts were also full of doubts.
"Poor Dao Zhibingzi see Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother." The old way salutes.
"Walking on frost and knowing ice, why did the Taoist come here today?" Empress Wu asked.
Lao Dao smiled slightly, "Forgive the poor Dao for coming to visit, I came here today to offer treasures." ”
The imperial city is heavily guarded, this old way actually comes and goes freely, and a thought arises in the heart of the martial queen, is this person an immortal?
