Like good people, thieves are all human beings. Since they are all human beings, why should they be treated differently?

Zhou Shixiang was very dissatisfied with Shouning County's approach to taking care of the thieves. In his opinion, this was to indulge evil rather than to persuade good.

It may be a good thing for a prodigal son to turn back and don’t change his money, but it is not worthy of publicity. Because a person who has done a lot of bad things will be written by a big book by chance, and that is very unfair to those who have never done bad things in their entire lives.

The practice of the thief of Shouning is very similar to the allusion of the child who had a fucked in Zhou Shixiang's previous life. The officials in Shouning are like the "mothers" who feed their breasts. The sensible and obedient "baby" did not receive the milk and attention of the "mother", but those who like to make trouble and cry can get it. If this continues, it will not only destroy people's hearts, but the country, and the world.

There is no problem in this world that cannot be solved fairly. If so, add an extra knife.

Zhou Shixiang ordered the magistrate of Shouning, the magistrate of the six ranks, and all the officials from all over the country were locked up. He transferred his personal guard Yao Wenlong to Shouning to be the magistrate.

Then, a battalion of Taiping Army advanced to Shouning, and the "thieves" certificates that were originally stolen as family heirlooms will become death talismans.

The doors of the thieves were kicked open, and the male thieves were pulled out of their homes, and then tied with ropes to Zhoushan, Zhejiang. They were sent to Liaodong to take on husband service.

Yao Wenlong executed high-pressure orders in Shouning, and for the thieves who dared to gather, regardless of age or weakness, men or women, they were punished for rebellion. Within half a month, Yao County Magistrate executed more than 300 people, resulting in the word "thieves" becoming a word that no one dared to say in Shouning. The thieves also became like rats on the streets, and everyone shouted and beat them.

The entire Funing Prefecture and even the entire Fujian Provincial Government Office were running, and all the roads leading to the outside world of Shouning were set up. The good people in Shouning County were also organized to report and expose the robbers. Under the layers of high pressure, the problem of robbers that had suffered from Shouning for 16 years disappeared overnight.

Facts have proved that the government did not act, and the thieves were arrogant and shouted more fiercely than the sky. But once the government took action, a few heads could scare these thieves who were comparing to the heavenly king and would never dare to cause trouble again.

"There is no crowd in this world that cannot be cured, and no one can move, which will cause local turmoil and chaos in the world. Our officials should first consider it for the court, not for themselves. The court does need local peace, but it does not allow local governments to compromise mobs and unconditionally. Our parents and officials should also treat the people equally and treat them equally. The palms and backs of hands are flesh, and we must not favor one or the other. Those who are good at making trouble and can do things must be severely cracked down on them, and we must not indulge them, let alone for the sake of doing things.

Assessment and promotion, concessions to these mobs and troublemakers, and use the blood and sweat of the people to fill their greedy appetites. In order to seek equality through struggle, equality is there; through compromise, equality is not there. In the future, the court, provincial government, prefectures and counties at all levels need to learn from the lessons of the thief households at Shouning and cannot make the same mistakes again. In the future, even if there is care, we should also treat the good people who are committed to the public and law-abiding, the families of the martyrs and the families of the country and the people. In addition, treat everyone equally and follow the rules. Those who violate the violation will be locked and taken to the capital."

The incident of the household robbery in Shouning was just an episode for Zhou Shixiang. He spent only three days on this matter. After entering Zhejiang, he wrote a letter to Ding Zhixiang, the Grand Secretary of the Ministry of Justice who was also in charge of the Ministry of Justice, asking the latter to start improving the "Law of the Ming Dynasty".

With the changes of the times and the changes in reality, the original "Ming Law" has lagged behind to a certain extent, and some legal provisions need to be revised.

Law is the foundation of a country. No one can live a hundred years old, but law can do it.

Zhou Shixiang hopes that what he left to China in this era is not only confidence, but also a new order. Even after he dies, China will still operate in the same way as he imagined, a new order that no one can change.

Tang Xiaoxian, who was in charge of the Jiading Qingkuansi, became the magistrate of Jiading as he wished. Although he was just a magistrate, Jiading was the essence of Songjiang and had a huge tax revenue. Therefore, the magistrate of Jiading was a fatal flaw in the eyes of many people.

On this day, Tang Xiaoxian was discussing with the people in the warehouse in the yamen to collect summer grain and tax exemption in the county. As he was speaking, the concierge came to report that it was the visit of the magistrate's old friend.

When he heard that it was an old friend who was visiting, Tang Xiaoxian hurriedly asked to lead the person in. When he saw that it was an old friend, he was the bookkeeper Yu Baien who had met in the army of the former army.

Speaking of which, Tang Xiaoxian and Yu Baien have been separated for more than four years, so I was very happy to meet again and asked someone to sit and invite Yu Baien to have tea. After saying some of the separation for many years, Tang Xiaoxian asked Yu Baien why he did not participate in the imperial examination. If he was willing, he could submit his book to Jiading for reference.

Yu Baien thanked Tang Xiaoxian for being kind, but said that his mother had just passed away. He was now following the command of Dingyou and could not participate in this year's provincial examination. When he heard that Yu Baien's mother passed away, Tang Xiaoxian was shocked and hurriedly went in to change the auspicious clothes, went into the back hall, and put on wine. Considering that Ding's mother had just passed away, the table was mainly vegetarian dishes, which was very suitable for Yu Baien's wishes.

The two were eating, and the Lord Bo Ding Ladong came to see him in a hurry and said that there was something important to discuss with the county magistrate Tang. Tang Xiaoxian was unhappy in his heart, Ding Zhubo disturbed him and his friends for dinner, but it did not reveal it. He apologized to Yu Baien and took Ding Zhubo to the side to talk.

"Why are you so anxious to find me?" Tang Xiaoxian asked Master Ding Bo.

Ding Ladong said ashamed: "But he offended the county magistrate. In fact, a few teachers have prepared fifty kilograms of beef just now. They asked a master to ask me to beg me and allow them to slaughter the cattle."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaoxian was immediately displeased. He knew that Ding Ladong was a member of the sect, so his tone became stern: "The King of Qi had just issued a ban. Nowadays, plowing oxen is very expensive. It is strictly forbidden to slaughter plowing oxen in various places. The boss's tickets came to him, and his tone was also stern. Don't you know that it is powerful, and even the yamen will follow you to eat."

Ding Ladong also knew that what he asked was a bit abrupt, but his relatives begged him, but he still had a wife's family in his house, which was really hard to refuse. At that moment, he could only bite the bullet and said, "The county master is considerate. My relatives said that he only wanted the county to be a little looser, which is called 'hiding the upper and not the lower'. Another fifty kilograms of beef are given here."

Tang Xiao heard this first, frowned slightly, and signaled that Master Ding would go down first. When he returned to the meal, he talked about this matter with Yu Baien and wanted to ask the other party to give him an idea.

Yu Baien smiled and shook his head to Tang Xiaoxian and said, "Brother Tang, then Master Ding is very confused. Don't be harmed by him. It should be noted that this official only knows that there are courts, emperors, and King Qi, but how can you teach relatives? I remember that Mr. Liu during the Hongwu period back then."

Tang Xiaoxian asked, "That Mr. Liu?"

Yu Baien said, "It's a secret. He was a Jinshi who was admitted to the third year of Hongwu. He was the fifth in the three sentences of "There is the Tao in the World". Later, he entered the Hanlin area. Hongwu went to his house privately, just like "visiting Pu on a Snowy Night". As soon as King Zhang of Jiangnan gave him a jar of side dishes. He opened it in person and saw that it was all about melon seeds. The Master Hongwu was annoyed and said, "He thought that everything in the world was all based on your scholars!" On the second day, he demoted Mr. Liu to the magistrate of Qingtian County and used poison to kill him. How could this be so great!"

Although Tang Xiaoxian knew some words, he was not a scholar after all. He didn't know so many allusions. Seeing that Yu Baien was speaking eloquently and was the exact allusion of this dynasty, he couldn't help but believe it, and asked him, "How to deal with this matter?"
