Chapter 128: Drink on the head
cpa300_4();“ The wind knows the vigor, and the rain knows the spring and autumn!"
After writing these two sentences, Lin Wei put down the pen, thought about it, or picked up the piece of paper on which he had written, rubbed it gently, and threw it aside. Remember [the latest chapter of the cat flutter novel] in a second,
His original intention was to leave a word for Wu Ziyin, the king of Jin, to see it to motivate the other party.
Only after the strong wind can you know the vigor of the tree, and only after the heavy rain can you know the spring coming and falling, this is what Lin Wei wants to tell King Jin. But thinking about it, Lin Wei felt that it was completely unnecessary, it was no longer right for him to go to the inner study rashly, and he left the words, wasn't he looking for trouble, so he rubbed off the paper on which he wrote and threw it aside. Anyway, there are already dozens of paper balls there, and they won't be noticeable.
Wu Ziyin hadn't come back yet, and Lin Wei was really bored waiting, so he walked out of the study and went to the yard.
The Jin Wangfu is not very big, but it is also the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are scattered, and there are garden pavilions, although the King of Jin is the most low-key among several princes, but he is a prince after all, and there should be.
Halfway to meet the old steward, the other party was very embarrassed, after all, invited guests to come, but the host was not there, no matter how you say it, it is rude. The old steward told Lin Wei that His Royal Highness King Jin had not come back since he entered the palace early in the morning, and he estimated that there must be something important, that is, to ask Lin Wei to take care of him.
"Mr. Lin can go to the bamboo garden to rest, and when the people make the meal, I will call Mr. Lin." The old steward was still so polite, but Lin Wei really wanted to go to Zhuyuan to have a look.
The bamboo garden is a scene of the Jin king's mansion, Lin Wei came to the previous life, although the Jin king was down-and-out at that time, but the bamboo garden is still well maintained.
And the bamboo garden in this life is no different from what Lin Wei remembers.
The only difference is that there are people here.
In a pavilion in the bamboo garden, there was a human voice, although the distance was very far, but Lin Wei had spiritual powers, so he could hear it clearly.
Someone is talking, or rather, arguing.
The main topic of the debate is "statecraft". Those who can discuss this topic are obviously either strategists or ministers, at least those who are worried about the country and the people. Coincidentally, in the previous life, Lin Wei was this kind of person, otherwise it would not be possible to achieve the second-grade official position of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
Lin Wei was interested in this topic, so he stopped and listened.
There are at least two people in the gazebo, and you have a word for these two people at the moment. I can't argue with one sentence. One said that the way to govern the country lies in the strict law, only when the law is strict, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and before the law, everyone is equal, so that the reward and punishment can be moderate, and the people can be happy. Guofang Sheng.
The other is that the law is just a tool, which can be used or not, and it is all in the mouth of the strong. The first question is, if there is no law, how can the world be governed?
Just listened to the human: "Brother Chen, what you said is right. But the reality is that the same crime is committed by civilians. If you can't afford to provoke them, who will dare to punish them? Let me ask you, if the prince commits a crime, how can you punish it? If the king commits a crime, how can he punish it? Even if a Zhenguo immortal commits a capital crime under the law, can you still cure the crime of Zhenguo immortals?"
This rhetorical question is obviously extremely lethal, at least the person on the other side is called Zhang Chen is speechless, obviously trying to say something, but he feels that he is pale and powerless to say it.
How to punish the king for committing a crime? How to punish the immortals of Zhenguo?
You must know that the immortals of Zhenguo, that is the Dinghai Divine Needle sent by the Immortal Dynasty to the twelve countries of the human realm, as well as the responsibility of supervising the country, and the power and status are all above the kings of the human kingdom.
Such a person commits a crime, except for the Immortal Dynasty, no one can cure it.
Therefore, even if it is a law, it is divided into three, six, nine, and so on, and the world is the same, and the world is very different, so the rule of law in the world sounds good, but it is not realistic. After this voice finished speaking, the other voice just sighed and said: "How can I not know this truth, but you see, today, the power of the Dao Gate is too strong, as long as it is an immortal monk, which one is not ashamed and arrogant, and regards mortals as ants, and the laws of the country cannot bind them, and in the long run, it is the mortal people who suffer." ”
"Brother Chen, just say this here, don't say it outside, otherwise don't look at your official residence, if someone takes advantage of the topic to play, you will suffer a big loss. ”
"I'm not afraid, it's a big deal to sacrifice my life for righteousness, and I can't see right and wrong upside down and make no distinction between black and white. ”
"Brother Chen, don't be angry, what you said makes sense, but don't forget, under the rule of the Immortal Dynasty, the Three Realms and the Twelve Kingdoms all have laws to follow, the people have laws, the underworld has laws, and the Immortal Dynasty also has laws, even those sect monks are also bound by door rules, how can they say that there is no distinction between black and white?" This time it was another person who spoke, who may have been listening before, and at this time he also joined the debate.
I heard the sound of "popping" on the table: "If you say that, I am even more angry, the law is there, but who will carry out the duty of punishment? ”
When Lin Wei heard this, he already felt the same way, it was very simple, he was the secretary of the Criminal Department in his last life, and he was in charge of the criminal law of Wu State, but when he encountered a monk breaking the law, it was often over. In the last life, Lin Wei beheaded a fairy monk according to the law, which caused trouble and led the immortal official to come forward, but at that time, Lin Wei relied on righteousness to collide with the other party, and was convicted of capital crimes.
Speaking of which, although Lin Wei is also a dignified monk in this life and has a transcendent status, he still has a wish in his heart.
That is to rule the world by law.
Although Lin Wei knew that this matter was impossible.
One of the people who had just joined the debate was right when he said that the law was only an instrument, a sword, and the emphasis was on the one who carried the sword.
Lin Wei didn't understand many truths in the previous life, but Lin Wei, who had died once and was a human being, was enlightened, thoroughly, if he was a monk in the previous life and had a Taoist background, then he would not be regarded as an ant, and he would be killed.
Lin Wei understood, understood, but the person in the pavilion was not.
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Lin Wei, but Lin Wei still walked over, he wanted to wake up the "obsessed" person, the reason is very simple, that person was one of Lin Wei's best friends in his last life.
Zhang Chen, a bachelor of Wenge, an assistant secretary of the Criminal Department, and a third-grade officer.
A righteous scholar, who firmly believes in morality and etiquette, is a good person like Lin Wei in the previous life, and because of this, they will have a similar temperament and become friends.
In terms of age, Zhang Chen is more than ten years older than Lin Wei, so Lin Wei has received a lot of help from him, and even owes a lot of favors. This favor was not returned in the previous life, but it was returned in this life. Because Lin Wei clearly remembered that Zhang Chen was too upright and even pedantic, he was pushed to the end and suffered a lot, and finally reinstated himself with his own ability, but because of his previous suffering experience, he fell ill and was miserable in his old age.
In the pavilion, it was really Zhang Chen, he was only in his thirties at this time, and he was still in high spirits. At this moment, he was standing, and the other two were sitting, listening to his resentment and catharsis, obviously they were all old friends, and they would not spread Zhang Chen's words. But when they saw Lin Wei coming over, their faces changed, and they wanted to stop Zhang Chen from talking.
At this time, Zhang Chenzheng said: "...... Therefore, the immortal dynasty ruled the world, and the twelve kingdoms of the three realms should all put the law first, and the same crime, mortals should be killed, monks, and even immortals, should also be killed. Even if things are difficult to do, it is difficult to change my original intention, and for this wish in my heart, even if I lose my soul, I will never regret it. ”
"Stupid!" Suddenly, a shout came from behind him, Zhang Chen immediately turned his head to look, but saw a young man in cloth standing behind him at some point.
This young man was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he had a calm momentum, and at first glance he knew that he was not a mortal. But Zhang Chen is also a stubborn temper, and the other party's "stupidity" made him extremely angry, not because the other party scolded him, but because the other party denied what he just said.
Zhang Chen's two friends just wanted to speak at this time, but they couldn't move because of Lin Wei's eyes.
Lin Wei's momentum has been achieved, and it is naturally easy to frighten two mortals with his eyesight. He didn't want to be disturbed at this time, because he wanted to wake up Zhang Chen completely, lest Zhang Chen repeat the mistakes of his previous life.
For Liu Juan'er and King Jin, Lin Wei can interfere forcefully, but not for this Zhang Chen, if he can't change his stubborn thinking, sooner or later he will break into trouble.
Not to mention anything else, as far as Zhang Chen's remarks just now, if he is heard and stabbed out by someone with bad intentions, then Zhang Chen will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
Before Zhang Chen could speak, Lin Wei preemptively said: "You said that the law comes first, but you think that the law is supreme, and no matter the monarch or the minister, the immortal should respect the law?"
"That's natural!" originally wanted to scold back or reprimand Lin Wei, but was suddenly snatched by Lin Wei, Zhang Chen didn't react for a while, and subconsciously replied.
Because what Lin Wei said was exactly what he thought in his heart.
"So I said you are stupid, don't disagree, I'll ask you again, if there is no country and no immortal dynasty to rule, how much silver is the law worth?"
Zhang Chen couldn't answer this time, it's not that he couldn't answer, this question is actually very easy to answer, because there is no country, there is no immortal dynasty to rule, and the law is worthless at all.
"If you don't say it, I'll say it for you, the law is worthless without absolute force. And you, who only emphasize the law, ignore the general trend, blindly emphasize injustice, but are unwilling to do anything to reverse this injustice, and say that you are stupid is light. Lin Wei continued to scold, this time, Zhang Chen's face was pale for a while, but he couldn't refute a word.
He has always been known for his eloquence, even if he is above the court, he can argue in the face of those first-class and second-class officials and even kings, but now, he is speechless.
Because although the young man on the other side was scolding him, he could hear a trace of concern, which was an extremely mysterious feeling, and what people said was reasonable.
"Why is it so difficult for monks to punish those who break the law, and why is it difficult to punish the powerful and corrupt people? It is because they have the power to override the law, and only when justice is strong can they punish those who break the law, otherwise, to talk about the law alone is to deceive themselves. ”
Zhang Chen's scolded head was buzzing, and by the time he came back to his senses, the figure of the young man just now was gone.
This time, Zhang Chen was silent for a long time, and he actually slapped his thigh and laughed, obviously, he realized. (To be continued.) )
