Rule? Rule of law?

Everyone looked at the four words written by the immortal master on the rice paper, and they all fell into deep thought.

Rule of law.

These two words, these great emperors do not feel unfamiliar, after all, the first great unified dynasty, the Qin Dynasty established after the destruction of the Six Kingdoms by Qin, adopted Li Si's Legalist ideology of governing the country.

And.

Legalist thought, after thousands of years of inheritance and practice, has confirmed a point.

A dynasty cannot be without a testimony.

As the saying goes, there is no circle without rules, and there is no country without a degree.

If a country has no law, then there are no taboos in the world, and the law is a sword used by the empire to restrain all peoples.

And one of the hallmarks of troubled times is that if you don't pay attention to the law, you can be lawless if you have soldiers in your hands.

Therefore, whether it is the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, or the Yuan Dynasty, at the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, the first thing must be to draw up a set of mature laws, and only with this set of laws can we rule over all the people and rule steadily.

For example, after Hongwu founded the country, he promulgated the Great Ming Law of the world.

Only when the law is in front of the law can the people of the world do according to the law, and the world can follow the way.

"Brother, we can still understand the truth of the word rule of law."

"But this man?"

Lao Zhu's eyes fell on the words 'human governance' on the rice paper, and he really couldn't figure it out.

Podium C position.

Ji Boying's eyes swept over the group of princes in the audience, and at this moment, from the eyes of these people, Ji Boying could see that these people had a confused look that was almost the same as Lao Zhu, and obviously they all had great doubts about their understanding of the word "rule of the people".

"Regarding the word rule of man, I will give you a brief description of the concept."

"If the world is ruled by people, the problem that Hong Xi just said is the truth, once your Zhu family royal family loses the imperial power of the Son of Heaven to rule the world, you will lose everything you have, and in the end, it will be difficult to escape the destruction of a dead clan."

"And if the world adopts the rule of law, it can solve this problem perfectly."

The immortal master's voice fell.

‘？？？？ ’

The hearts of every prince of the Zhu family, including Lao Zhu and Ah Biao, are flooded with a series of question marks at this moment, and they still don't understand why the rule of law can be avoided.

"Immortal Master, the student has a question."

That's when it happened.

Ah Biao, who was sitting on the edge of the podium, stood up.

Since he became an assistant teacher of the immortal master, Ah Biao, who is a top student, has rarely asked questions about the immortal master in class, after all, as an assistant teacher of the immortal master, his duty is to assist the immortal master to teach better, so naturally he wants to give more questions to the students in the audience, and always pay attention to his identity.

But this class was different from any of the previous ones.

This was the last lesson that the Immortal Master gave to their Zhu family.

In this last class of the Immortal Master, he would rather give up his identity as an Immortal Master's assistant teacher, but as an ordinary student, he went to listen to the Immortal Master's class.

"Speak."

Ji Boying looked at Ah Biao and smiled.

Ji Boying has always had a good impression of Xuebabiao, especially after Xuebabiao became a teaching assistant, he helped a lot in the classroom, which saved Ji Boying a lot of unnecessary tongues.

Ah Biao took a deep breath, first saluted the immortal master, and then took a deep breath and spoke.

"I'm heading."

"Or is it the Yuan, Song, Tang, and Han dynasties before our dynasty, each of these previous dynasties ruled the country by law, why did they finally end up with a demise?"

The problem is out.

Everyone in the audience nodded their heads.

They also have the same question in their hearts, after Ah Biao asked this question, they all discussed it one after another, and the result of the discussion was that they thought that the law of the Ming Dynasty was the most sound compared to the previous dynasties, and the entire country at all levels was also in accordance with the law of the Ming Dynasty.

Their Ming Empire is a proper rule of law.

Now that the Ming Dynasty is already the rule of law, what changes need to be made?

Of course.

This conclusion is the result of the discussion of this group of Great Tomorrow Prince Princes, and does not represent the views of Immortal Master Ji Boying.

Regarding the discussion of everyone in the audience, no matter how loud it was, the immortal master on the podium did not interrupt, but waited until the discussion gradually subsided before speaking.

"There is a fundamental difference between what is the rule of law and what is the rule of man."

Distinguish?!

When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.

Immediately, they all paid attention to the immortal master, and listened to the words of the immortal master, what is this difference.

"The rule of law, the law is supreme."

"Man governs, man can set the law."

"You are all the sons of heaven, and you are the rulers of all dynasties, and you ask yourself, if there is a certain law in front of you, and you must destroy this law, what choice will you make in the end?"

The voice asked.

Everyone was stunned, but Hong Xi was more honest and took the lead in speaking out.

"Scrap it, or change it to suit your needs."

As soon as this answer came out, everyone else was silent, but it was obvious that they were all in favor of this answer, after all, to tell the truth, they did this kind of thing one by one in the Ming Dynasty, and if there is a law that does not suit them in the Ming Law, as the Son of Heaven, they will change it, or make a new law to bypass it, and the main thing is to do whatever they want.

"If the law can be changed at will by the will of one person, how can the rule of law be talked about in the world?"

"It is precisely because of the will of one person that the law can be changed, so when the Zhu family royal family loses the imperial power of the Son of Heaven, the new person in power, with the will of one person, can drive out your Zhu family royal family."

Gordon.

The words 'kill everything' came into their ears, and everyone's hearts were stirred.

"And if the world is supreme by the law, the situation is completely different."

"With the law as the supreme and running the world, anyone in the empire must act in accordance with the letter of the law, even if the person in power in the empire cannot change the terms of the written law, in this case, it is agreed in the law that the Zhu family royal family is the legal and sole owner of the Ming Empire, and the Zhu family royal family is supported by the empire forever, etc., so as to ensure that your Zhu family's royal family temple is not destroyed."

That's it.

The princes of the great tomorrow in the audience were obviously a little confused.

Even Xue Babiao couldn't help frowning, he found that he didn't understand what the immortal master said just now, or he didn't seem to understand.

If you make provisions in the law, you can protect the eternal prosperity of the country?

"Brother, can you be more blunt about this?"

Lao Zhu's brows were already furrowed.

He felt that his brain was a little burning, on top of this question, he couldn't get around it, and he was a little suspicious of whether he was Alzheimer's, but after looking at the children and grandchildren of the Zhu family under the stand, and seeing the confused look in their eyes, he was sure that it was not his Alzheimer's, but it was indeed difficult to understand.

Ji Boying glanced at Lao Zhu and Ah Biao, and then glanced at these princes of the Zhu family.

Truly.

This concept is a little forward, especially for these Zhu family members who are the Son of Heaven, they themselves are the pinnacle of the rule of man, and it is really a bit difficult for them to deeply understand the concept of the rule of law.

"Immortal Master, I still have a question."

At this time, Xuebabiao spoke again.

He seemed to have regained the taste of the immortal master's words just now.

"Say."

Ji Boying looked at Ah Biao.

This question-and-answer model is also a way of teaching for others, and it will be easier to understand.

"There are a few questions that students don't understand."

"If someone else has the supreme power of my Ming Dynasty, then why can't he change the law? Why can't you abolish my Zhu family's royal family? What is the basis for this not to be changed? How should the supremacy of the law be safeguarded? ”

Xuebabiao asked a series of questions.

From the perspective of these great emperors, including Ah Biao, when another person ascends to the supreme, he naturally owns the world, and he must overthrow all the laws of the previous dynasty, including the laws of the previous dynasty.

Using the law to restrain a person who holds the power of the empire is obviously an unlikely thing, and it is completely unreliable!

No matter how you look at it, it's not feasible.

"Yes, Immortal Master, how is this possible? It doesn't work at all! ”

"The law can only bind the people of the world, but not the people in power."

“………………”

The group of people under the podium, after Ah Biao's series of questions were raised, all found their own doubts one after another, and competed to raise their own questions.

Such a noisy sound made Lao Zhu's temper more and more irritable, this was originally his brother's last lesson, and Lao Zhu was in a very bad mood.

"What's the noise? Shut up! ”

Lao Zhu glared at these descendants of the Zhu family, and broke off, everyone sensed Lao Zhu's anger, and then they hurriedly shut their mouths.

"Let's listen carefully to my brother's lectures, buzzing one by one, who dares to continue humming, let's just beat you a dog."

said.

Lao Zhu pestled the mace on the side of the Taishi's chair.

Groov.

Everyone's pupils shrank.

No one wants to be beaten by Grandpa Tai in this last class, it is really a deep memory and will never be forgotten.

"Ah Biao's questions."

"It can be said that the questions are very good, and they all get to the point of the problem."

Ji Boying smiled at the corner of his mouth and gave Ah Biao an affirmative look.

Being able to ask these questions shows that Ah Biao is indeed listening carefully and thinking carefully, and every doubt asked is what Ji Boying wants to tell everyone next, and he just gave Ji Boying an outline, and Ji Boying of the province will go and figure it out himself.

"First of all."

"We need to be clear about one thing."

"I'm going to ask you a question."

After that, Ji Boying swept over this group of great tomorrow princes and said lightly.

"Does the supremacy of the empire have to be a certain person?"

The immortal master spoke, and the voice fell.

The princes in the audience were all stunned, looking confused.

Judging by their experience, from their education since childhood, the holder of the highest power in the empire is not a person, what else can it be?

This question is simply too metaphysical.

These Zhu family sons feel that their brains are going to be unable to turn, and their brains are about to explode!

"Immortal Master, this, I really can't figure it out."

When Wuzong Zhu Houzhao heard this, he couldn't help but stand up and open his mouth.

"The holder of the highest power is not a single person, can it still be a group of people?"

"That's right."

The voice fell.

Wuzong Zhu Houzhao was stunned in an instant, this can also be right?

Sometimes.

When you don't know the answer, you can answer according to your feelings, or choose C directly, and you can basically get it right.

Wuzong Zhu Houzhao is the best example.

Everyone else listened with a look on their faces'??? ’。

What's that?

The supreme power is a group of people? Are you kidding!

So how to play? You can't vote by show of hands all day!

"The concept of this group of people is a little more accurate."

Ji Boying continued.

"It's the people of the world."

"The holder of the supreme power is the people of the world and the people of the empire."

At this point, the immortal master's words made these great tomorrow princes even more crazy, and their brains were full of mush.

The people are the common people, the grass mustard, and the people of the Son of Heaven, how can the supreme power of the empire still be in the hands of the people, is it possible to let the people override the Son of Heaven?!

This, which son of heaven is this, which family of the royal family is called? !

I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out at all! What kind of logic is this theory?!

The group of great princes of the Zhu family in the audience, one of them was counted as one, and all of them frowned, as the supreme son of heaven of the Ninety-Five, how could they be trampled on by the common people? !

"To be more accurate."

"You can understand it like that, maybe it's easier to accept."

"The Son of Heaven gave most of the imperial power in his hands to the people of the world, and then the people of the world chose the good talents they believed in to enter the government, and the source of this power still comes from your Zhu family."

When the immortal master's words fell, everyone was solemn, thinking about the meaning of the immortal master's words repeatedly.

It's a bit of a twist, but it seems to hear something subtle.

Especially Lao Zhu, muttering the word 'check and balance'.

And at this time.

Xuebabiao, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up, with an enlightened look on his face, and said quickly.

"I'm enlightened!"

When everyone heard this, they all subconsciously looked at Xuebabiao, especially the three Zhu Di.

Xindao: Why did you realize it again? My dear big brother, are you the legendary Zhu Wukong?!

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat."

"The method of the immortal master is to let me wait for the Zhu family royal family to merge with the people, and my Zhu family royal family will become the water of the world from now on, and there will never be a day when the boat will be overturned!"

At this point, Ah Biao was obviously very excited, and the logic was smooth and impeccable.

The others were stunned for a moment, and then looked stunned.

It makes sense!

Ji Boying looked at Ah Biao with an excited face, stunned for a moment, a little crying and laughing for a while, to put it in his heart, he had never thought of such a theory, but listening to Ah Biao say this, it really makes so much sense.

Biaobiao, you're a fucking genius! (End of chapter)
