Fang Yuan and others left the Household Department.

But Fang Yuan did not leave the palace, but went to the Ministry of Punishment and directly met Liu Zhenghui, the Minister of Punishment.

"Shilang Fang, isn't your household department having a meeting at this time?"

Liu Zhenghui was surprised by Fang Yuan's arrival.

He politely invited Fang Yuan and others to sit down at the coffee table.

"Kicked out."

Fang Yuan chuckled.

Sit down with Fang Qingping and others.

Fang Qingping and others are more reserved and sit upright.

"Cui Shangshu started targeting you so quickly?!"

Liu Zhenghui was surprised.

He and Cui Zhentang have also been in contact for many years. Although their friendship has not been long, they still have some understanding.

Cui Zhentang targeted Fang Yuan on the first day, which shows that Fang Yuan is really furious.

"Am I kidding you about this?"

"Liu Shangshu, I have an idea and would like to ask for your opinion!"

Fang Yuan laughed and said.

Obtained the evidence of Cui Zhentang's copper smelting from Fang Qingping.

"This is?"

Liu Zhenghui was puzzled.

Take Fang Yuan’s evidence and read it.

As soon as I saw it, my face changed, and my eyes flashed with disgust.

Many people cannot accept copper smelting.

This is also the reason why Cui Zhentang denied it in the meeting room of the Ministry of Finance.

Smelting copper is not illegal, but it offends many people and is even looked down upon by many.

"I know that many people have the bad habit of smelting copper, and most of these people come from major aristocratic families."

"But I couldn't stand these copper-smelting behaviors, and I couldn't do nothing when I learned that those girls were harmed."

"I want to legislate, jointly with the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, to jointly introduce a law to protect children under 14 years old. Liu Shangshu, do you support it?"

Fang Yuan looked at Liu Zhenghui and said in a deep voice.

After saying this, Liu Zhenghui and others all turned pale with shock and looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief.

Legislation is not that easy. It involves the interests of countless people. Except for the easier implementation in the years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, different forces will block the implementation of a law at other times.

Because every law weakens the interests of some people and strengthens the interests of some people.

"I want to support you, but you won't succeed, and you won't convince King Ren Cheng."

Liu Zhenghui was silent for a long time, shook his head and said.

He knows that the more powerful you are, the more likely you are to have a perverted mentality.

Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, is famous, but his private life is not necessarily much better.

Moreover, there are many copper smelters in the royal family. It is impossible to get Li Daozong to agree.

"Liu Shangshu, as long as you agree, I will take care of King Cheng's side."

"I remember that your family still owes me a favor, so I'll use this to repay it."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Seeing Liu Zhenghui's hesitation, he brought up the matter of favor.

"Is it worth spending favors for people you have never met?"

Liu Zhenghui frowned and looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief.

He has met countless people in his life, but Fang Yuan is rare.

With great luck, he was already in the fourth rank at a young age, and almost reached the third rank and was extremely popular.

Moreover, his abilities are sufficient. Even though he was promoted out of the ordinary every time, there was no sign of him being out of place after being promoted.

Nowadays, it is really hard to see why we are legislating and protecting children all over the world.

“I don’t talk about whether it’s worth it or not, I just know that I want to do it.”

"In life, there are always things that must not be done and things that must be done."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Protecting a fourteen-year-old child is definitely not worth it for Fang Yuan himself.

From this aspect, it is actually not worthwhile for Fang Yuan to launch bicycles, help Sun Simiao with research, establish a medical school, etc.

But if many things are viewed blindly from the perspective of worthiness and unworthiness, it will be difficult to make policies and regulations that are beneficial to the people of the world.

The higher your position, the more you must consider the people of the world, the more you must promote the development of the times and create an environment more conducive to people's survival.

"Hehehe, since you said that, then I have no objection."

"As long as you can convince King Ren Cheng, I, Liu Zhenghui, will definitely support your legislation, Fang Yuan!"

Liu Zhenghui was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed.

He is an old man and probably has only a few years left to live.

If Fang Yuan has the ability to implement this law, then he will not hesitate to help.

"Thank you Liu Shangshu."

"Then I won't bother you anymore."

Fang Yuan was very grateful for this and stood up to salute Liu Zhenghui.

"You're welcome, provided you can convince King Ren Cheng."

"By the way, I think it is necessary to remind you that the age limit for children under the law should be twelve years old. Fourteen years old is too old."

Liu Zhenghui stood up and saw Fang Yuan out.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered something and reminded Fang Yuan.

"Because of the queen?"

Fang Yuan frowned slightly.

"Yes."

Liu Zhenghui nodded solemnly.

The queen is the mother of the world and the object of learning for women in the world.

Queens get married at the age of twelve, so women in the world should also get married at this age.

Setting it as fourteen years old may silently offend the queen and the royal family.

"I'll think about it again."

Fang Yuan frowned deeper.

This is indeed a problem, and it may offend the eldest grandson's family.

After all, the Changsun family’s plan was to have Changsun Chong marry Princess Changle when she was twelve years old.

Not long after, Fang Yuan found Li Daozong.

Li Daozong was also surprised that Fang Yuan was not in the household department.

He also knew that the Ministry of Household Affairs held a plenary meeting today, and everyone who was outside rushed back for the meeting.

After Fang Yuan briefly explained the reason, he explained his intention.

"Shilang Fang, are you kidding me?"

Li Daozong lamented that Cui Zhentang would definitely return to his hometown and was surprised by Fang Yuan's thoughts.

The Child Protection Act protects children under the age of fourteen from abuse by adult men.

Even many of the laws in the current court are not able to truly protect people's rights. In many cases, the strong are respected.

Knowing that the situation is like this, why is there any need to implement child protection laws?

"Your Majesty, I am very serious."

"You know I'm now in charge of road construction and community building projects, right? I can give you some of the profits."

Fang Yuan’s righteous way.
