After a group of snare killers tied up all the people and took them away, Lu Yan asked Mo Ya who was following him, "How many people are there?"
Mo Ya replied: "Compared with their previous gathering, it is about 40% less."
"That's right, it's still 40% less. These 40% saw the Wang family and the Meng family and all acted obediently and consciously sent people to school. Why do you think they can't think about it?"
With the Qin State's system and the policies decided by the King of Qin, they actually had the chance to resist. Lu Yan really couldn't understand.
Mo Ya asked cautiously: "Sir, what are you going to do with these people? It seems that they have indeed not violated Qin's laws."
"Huh? Haven't you read the new "Da Qin Code"?" Lu Yan immediately looked up and down Mo Ya, who was speechless for a moment, "Um, is this..."
"Hmph, as a high-ranking member of a violent organization like Luowang, how dare you not read the new Qin Code? Mo Ya, go back and receive the punishment yourself, and memorize the "Great Qin Code" within ten days."
Mo Ya suddenly panicked, "What? Sir, this, this is too difficult for others."
"Are you having trouble with your brain? It's not about memorizing every word, but it's about knowing that what you do will lead to corresponding consequences."
"Yes, I understand."
Lu Yan knew that he could distinguish the serious from the serious, so he did not reprimand him again, but sighed softly: "Li Si will really give me a difficult problem. Although this crime of inappropriate speech is a weapon to maintain rule, it can also be done if you don't pay attention."
It's more troublesome to defend people than to defend Sichuan."
The crime of inappropriate speech in the Qin Dynasty was enacted roughly after the First Emperor unified the world in history. It was a law enacted in the face of the chaotic public opinion situation in the six countries, and it was basically written by Li Si.
Nowadays, the crime of inappropriate speech in the "Da Qin Code" is basically written by Li Si. The main crimes are two: the crime of speaking nonsense and the crime of speaking inappropriately.
Just by hearing this name, you can guess how deceptive these two crimes are, because how to define speech as "delusional" or "inappropriate" clearly lies with the King of Qin. Once the King of Qin gets crazy, this law may change.
For example, in history, during the reign of Emperor Qin II, after the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, anyone who dared to mention the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in Xianyang would be punished for an inappropriate crime.
Lu Yanze can only add some restrictions to this legal provision that is highly likely to be abused. For example, in the current situation, these noble family heads gathered together and clearly expressed their opposition to national policies.
, can be punished according to the crime of inappropriate speech.
He is not a legal expert. He can only say that he should try to put some restrictions on Li Si's "Da Qin Code" instead of changing it casually. Li Si just took too absolute views on the evil of human nature. His laws were stricter on the people, but others were very strict with the laws.
The profundity is unmatched by Lu Yan.
I was thinking about random things along the way and soon arrived at my destination.
Ahem, it's not Tingwei's mansion, but Li Si's home. Lu Yan is working overtime to deliver materials to his senior brother.
"Dong dong ~ dong dong ~"
Several heavy knocks on the door shook the night.
After a while, the gatekeeper pushed the door half open, held a lantern and leaned out, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Lu Yan. Please wake up Mr. Tingwei immediately and tell him that there is an important case that needs to be handled."
The gatekeeper was startled, and immediately stood up straight, and then quickly bowed and saluted, "Master Imperial Master! I will go right now."
Li Si quickly rushed out wearing only a coat. When he saw a figure from a distance, he heard him shout: "Master Imperial Preceptor, what kind of case is this in the middle of the night worthy of you coming to me personally?"
?”
Lu Yan pointed at the group of tied people behind him and said, "It's nothing. The Luowang organization caught a group of people gathering secretly tonight to spread inappropriate remarks. Now that everyone is here, the interrogation, conviction, and sentencing will be left to the Tingwei Mansion."
Already."
Li Si took a closer look at the Miao family, Bai family, Liang family, etc., and instantly understood that he probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
"Oh, Si is born to have a hard life." He sighed casually, turned to the gatekeeper and said, "Go back and tell your family that I have an important case to go to the Tingwei Mansion for work, so you don't have to wait for me."
"Yes, sir."
"Master Imperial Master, please."
"Lord Tingwei, please."
Walking on the nightly streets of Xianyang, the mood of the two brothers gradually became a little subtle.
Li Si arranged his coat as he walked, looked at the net team escorting the prisoners, and praised: "With the leadership of the Imperial Master over the years, even the net organization has now become law-abiding. As a court lieutenant, I feel in my heart
This feeling is indescribable."
Lu Yan didn't look sideways and asked succinctly: "Does this taste good or bad?"
"It's just because I can't say it, it's hard to say it. Sir, the changes you made to the "Laws of the Great Qin", I can roughly understand what you mean, and they are intended to prepare for Qin to rule foreign people. The laws of the country of Shandong
Far inferior to Qin, the people were suddenly unified and subject to Qin's laws, and it was inevitable that they would not be able to adapt."
Li Si smiled and expressed his understanding of Lu Yan's original intention, and then changed his tone, "But, have you ever thought about what you will gain in the end by using loose laws to treat a group of people who have subjugated their country?
Just like today, these people were convicted for inappropriate speech. Can you imagine how many people dared to openly slander and insult our Qin country in broad daylight after Qin destroyed the five kingdoms? Without severe punishment for inappropriate speech, this would not be controllable at all.
"
Lu Yan nodded in agreement and responded: "I did not delete this inappropriate speech, I just put some restrictions on it."
"That's right. Originally, there was a death sentence and a clan punishment for all those who spoke falsely and criticized the government, or made inappropriate remarks that offended the king."
After hearing Li Si's words, the group of nobles escorted by the net began to struggle restlessly.
Clan punishment? Kill the whole clan! They just said some unpleasant words...
"Woo~"
"Hmm~woo~"
Various whimpering sounds came from the mouths of these people, which made Li Si look twice.
He then said to Lu Yan: "But you also added the severity of the consequences, ranging from two-year-old punishment to death penalty and even clan punishment. Do you know that as long as there is a possibility of life, the courage of criminals will increase several times."
Lu Yan naturally disagreed with his statement and retorted: "Being convicted for speaking out involves many uncertainties. If the death penalty is imposed regardless of the outcome, this law can easily become a weapon that can be exploited."
"These people today are your political opponents. According to the severity of the consequences you said, they should be harmless. After all, they were caught in your trap without doing anything." Li Si said, squinting at Lu Yan.
, what kind of feedback do you expect to get?
"Hmm~woo~"
"Hmm~woo~"
The meaning of these whimpers is probably to show that they have indeed caused no bad consequences.
Lu Yan didn't show any expression and remained calm.
"Do you think they would be grateful to you if you were sentenced to a light sentence of just two years in prison? Oh, no, they are all military nobles and have titles. Maybe they can be exempted from the two-year sentence. You
Are you sure you want to be so tolerant of your political opponents?"
Li Si did not look at Lu Yan, but stared at the people in question. He could tell from the fearful and unwilling eyes that these people would not remember Lu Yan's tolerance at this moment. This made him insist on his own.
More determined.
Lu Yan suddenly stopped and asked seriously: "Li Si, what exactly is the law in your heart?"
Li Si also stopped, and the two brothers looked at each other in the night.
