Chapter 1209 The Most Beautiful Man in the World's Road to a Powerful Minister (40)
Someone under Gu Mo once suggested that we should strictly crack down on the practice of deliberation and stop letting these scholar-bureaucrats have the right to speak and talk nonsense.
Gu Mo, however, did not comment and allowed it to develop.
The rule of law she promotes has never been about harsh laws, nor about stifling voices in society that are contrary to her own.
When the scholar-officials criticized corruption and criticized politics, they took the initiative to take on the responsibility of policing society, and they were a symbol of the backbone of the country and nation.
When there are more and more voices like this, it is actually a country’s luck.
Instead of using violent means to suppress them, it is better to do your own thing and make them convinced.
Xu Jian also disagreed with Gu Mo's behavior in the officialdom. He felt that she was too eager for quick success and would inevitably end up miserable in the future, and would also make her reputation unpleasant after her death, so she came to persuade Gu Mo.
Gu Mo said: "What I do is not for fame and fortune, nor for all the fame. I just hope that my descendants will be born in a peaceful age and die in a peaceful age. They drink because they are happy instead of escaping from the world. They are at home all over the world.
They want to travel around the world instead of being forced into exile. I hope they live under the light, enjoy the sunshine, be open-minded and upright."
Xu Qi's heart was shaken by her words. Isn't this his ambition?
"But you don't have to rush. Some things have to be done slowly."
Gu Mo said: "Why don't I understand this truth, but look at the world today, how can I not be slow? If I want to become the support of the people of Jiankang City and the people of the world, I must do it as quickly as possible.
Let yourself become a majestic mountain!"
The ground is filled with mourning and the city is filled with blood. It is just a thought to save the common people.
The world is for the common good and the world is peaceful and prosperous. This is the wish that the original body will never forget until his death. But how long can the lifespan of the original body be?
She can use gentle methods, but she can't live that long, and the progress is so slow. Once she dies, everything will just go back to where it started.
In this troubled world, only iron-blooded methods are the fastest and most stable way.
Xu Qi was silent, as there are extraordinary people in the world and extraordinary things happen.
After a long while, Xu Xi said: "Ziji, let me stay and help you."
Gu Mo was stunned, "Brother Lin An...?"
Xu Ju smiled and said, "It is the responsibility of scholars of our generation to cultivate oneself, manage one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. However, I have secluded myself from the world for so many years, but I have preserved myself, but how can I care about the suffering of the people in the world? I know you, and I see you.
You have given up your wealth and life in troubled times, and worked hard to give the people of the world a peaceful and prosperous age. I feel really ashamed. How can I see you fighting alone again..."
Gu Mo couldn't help but have Xu Qian come to help him.
Moreover, Xu Xi not only came out of the mountain himself, but also personally invited those famous celebrities to come out.
Many people came to work under Gu Mo because of his reputation, which made Gu Mo feel much more relaxed.
Even those Qingyi scholar-bureaucrats who scolded Gu Mo all day have calmed down a lot.
But, there was also a stubborn one among these scholar-officials. Seeing that Gu Mo turned a blind eye to their whippings and did not abolish the rule of law at all, he ran to the gate of the Taifu Mansion and cursed Gu Mo in all kinds of ways.
Whatever is unpleasant to be scolded, the eighteen generations of ancestors followed and scolded them together, and the scolding was quite good.
The staff couldn't stand hearing it anymore and advocated killing the person.
Gu Mo smiled and said, "If I kill such a proud person, I'm afraid it will be in line with his wishes and let him leave his name forever, while I will be infamy for thousands of years."
Song Daobo felt that Gu Mo's smile was sinister, "What does the Lord want to do?"
"He scolded me, of course I wanted to humiliate him."
Song Daobo, "...??"
So how to humiliate???
Soon, the people from Taifu's Mansion came out.
The scholar had a majestic and high-spirited expression as if he was looking forward to death, and his words were even more upright and awe-inspiring.
But he didn't expect the people from the Tutor's Mansion to directly issue the Great King's Law to punish him, and every rule they found was extremely reasonable.
Finally, the scholar was sentenced to exile.
The scholar then suspected that Gu Mo wanted to kill him during his exile and continued to hold his head high.
After arriving at the exile, the scholar was still alive and thought that Gu Mo wanted to kill him in the exile.
As a result, he waited and waited, and Gu Mo didn't kill him. He just exiled him from here to there, and moved him to another place every month.
Every place where he was exiled was filled with impoverished people, which tortured him physically and mentally.
The anger that the scholar had been holding back was completely wiped out by being exiled again and again.
Instead, he began to calm down and integrate into the surrounding environment, so he heard many voices belonging to the lower class people.
In their eyes, Taifu Gu was a good official who cared deeply about the people.
Building water conservancy projects and rectifying water transportation may seem like a waste of money and money, but they gather the people who were in exile and give them a job.
This job is not exploitative. Instead, they are incorporated into the nearby household registration, ensuring their food and clothing while working.
Now that the refugees have food and clothing, how can they still kill people and steal food and run around? This society is naturally much more stable.
In the eyes of the people, the newly revised Dajing Code that they criticized was no different from the previous Dajing Code. Even the criminal law was lighter than the previous Dajing Code. Those who punished the Nine Tribes and even the regulations on sitting were relaxed.
many.
At least the emperor can't just tell people that he wants to kill your nine tribes.
The difference is that the previous Dajing Laws are in vain, the privileged classes still enjoy their privileges, and the people at the bottom are restricted by the law.
But now, Gu Mo has allowed Dajing Law to play a real role, setting up various supervisors, and even among the people there is a profession - lawyer, who is familiar with the law and specializes in litigating cases for the people.
The law binds everyone, not just the common people.
Those who were dissatisfied with the new law were not the common people, but the classes that had enjoyed various privileges.
Because they have lost their privileges and become like ordinary people, they must pay with their lives for killing people.
This scholar suddenly understood that the people know best whether an official is good or not.
When these scholars criticized Gu Mo before, it wasn't necessarily that Gu Mo was wrong, it was just that Gu Mo's behavior infringed on their interests.
They use the excuse of serving the people of the world, but what they do is to safeguard their own interests.
They scolded Gu Mo, how could they have the right to scold Gu Mo?
Three years later, Gu Mo arranged another official examination, and the scholar finally returned to Jiankang from exile and took the examination.
I took the exam for a law-related position and passed the exam.
During the investiture ceremony, Gu Mo glanced at him twice but said nothing.
After taking office, he became a solid defender of Dajing Law. He was selfless and told you nothing but the law.
