Chapter 586 Protecting the Country and Auspiciousness
Winter passes and spring comes.
King Mi Yun of Chu came to Liucheng again.
This is the third consecutive year that he has come to Liucheng.
It's a pity that he never got an audience with the master.
Not to mention anything else.
However, Mi Yun was not in a hurry at all.
Holy lord, how can one be moved so easily?
Don't say three years.
Even thirty years or three hundred years could not cool down Mi Yun's heart.
However, when Mi Yun's ship docked at Liucheng Pier, he discovered that his grandson Mi Lu did not come to pick him up this time.
The only one who came was Dou Yu, who was accompanying Mi Lu here.
"Your Majesty!" Dou Yu saluted respectfully: "His Royal Highness, Wang Sun, went to Cao County on a business trip to inspect the place..."
"So, I ordered my minister to come and greet me!"
Mi Yun nodded: "Business matters are important, official matters are important!"
The official affairs of China are equivalent to the king’s orders in the past!
Even more important than the previous royal life!
Because official duties are meritorious!
Therefore, in China, official business is something that everyone rushes to do.
"I heard that the officials and nobles of Cao State will be tried this year?" Mi Yun asked tentatively.
"Yes!" Dou Yu replied: "The Haechi officials are busy sorting out the case files and sorting out the before and after..."
"For this, it took two years to collect criminal evidence!"
"It should be almost done now!"
"His Royal Highness Wang Sun, it seems that now he wants to strive for the imperial examination to be admitted as a Haechi official!"
"Huh?" Mi Yun became curious: "Why?"
Mi Yun knew that the Xie Zhi official in China was a kind of public office recommended by a committee of sentient beings, and then voted by the sentient beings in the area under their jurisdiction for a vote of confidence.
Its main responsibility is to hear cases in accordance with the laws of all living beings, conventions and other regulations recognized by the sacred tree.
Generally speaking, Haechi officials are appointed by students who used to be under the willow tree - it is difficult for others to gain the trust of all living beings, and few people will do such a thankless thing!
This is because Official Haechi was the clever boy who started advocating for it about ten years ago in accordance with the decree of Tianzun.
At that time, there was no Hua Kingdom, just Liu County.
Along with the Haechi official system, there was also the Chinese village self-evaluation and public deliberation system.
To some extent, the two are very similar.
Let’s take this official Haechi as an example.
According to the current system in China, generally one township (five villages) has one Haechi township official, one county has five Haechi county officials, and one county has nine Haechi county officials.
At the Chinese level, there are no Haechi officials.
Because ‘all legal power belongs to all living beings’.
And these Haechi officials do not just hear and decide cases after taking office.
Their trials, except in certain specific circumstances, are held in public and must have a legal number of bystanders.
These bystanders are witnesses.
After the Haechi officer has finished the trial, unless it is a minor or minor case, once it involves a prison term or a punishment such as confinement, confinement, sealing or even execution.
Officer Haechi himself must explain to the witnesses present why this case was decided in this way? What is the reason? How did he think about it?
And must answer the witnesses’ questions.
Once more than half of the witnesses express dissatisfaction and clearly put forward their reasons, the Haechi official cannot be convinced.
Then, the penalty will be revoked immediately!
At the same time, the case will be handed over to the higher-level Haechi official for handling.
The same is true for the self-evaluation and public deliberation system in Chinese villages.
Because it is collective labor, it is distributed after harvest.
Therefore, in rural areas of China, all villagers must be held for meetings every month.
The villagers first divided into groups to discuss.
Give yourself a score for your work this month. You can give it a high score or a low score.
Everything is a free conscience.
However, others can refute. Once there are more than two people refuting, the land can be summoned immediately to ask.
If the land does not know it, it will hold a sacrifice and ask the holy tree to judge the authenticity!
But in front of the holy tree, lying is seeking death! It is even a grave sin!
It not only affects yourself, but also affects your children’s future education and exams.
In serious cases, the whole family will be expelled from the village assembly.
That is to say, expulsion from the village!
After the group evaluation is completed, the whole village evaluates.
A group may be connected in series, but if the whole village is watching, there is no possibility of connecting in series.
Because, if we accept these people’s self-evaluation.
Their share of the harvest will be greater.
There is an upper limit to the total output of a village, and the distribution method is determined based on the score.
Under this system, China's rural areas have exploded with amazing labor efficiency and enthusiasm.
Fair distribution method and rational self-grading system.
Let China's rural development speed change with each passing day.
Many refugee villages have repaid all the loans and resettlement loans from the Lifetime Committee in just a few years.
There is still enough energy left to purchase large agricultural machinery, windmills, and waterwheels.
Some wealthy villages can even use cement for their roads, or hire monsters to build roads with magic.
However, rather than being well received, it has even begun to be introduced into ‘self-evaluation and public discussion’ in various walks of life in the city.
The Haezhi officials were relatively more miserable.
First of all, although this is a public position, the salary is average and the merits are relatively small (because there are basically no cases, most of them are trivial matters).
The requirements are still high, you must pass the exam and then be recommended by the Committee of All Living Beings.
Then it has to pass a local vote of confidence.
Such a vote occurs once a year.
If you don't do it well, you might even get a vote of no confidence.
Once passed, the future is basically bleak!
In front of the holy tree, he will leave a record that he was distrusted by the people in such and such a village.
This makes it almost impossible to have another chance to hold other public offices!
Therefore, in the past, Haechi official was a very unpopular public position.
Only local students have the corresponding qualifications and conditions.
Only they are willing to take on these thankless public positions.
What's the situation now?
Mi Yun doesn't quite understand.
He could only look at Dou Yu: "What happened?"
"Report to the king..." Dou Yu said softly: "This is because, not long after the beginning of spring this year, someone discovered that the Xiechi corner in the Xiechi Hall, where the Xiechi official's office is, showed signs of auspiciousness...
…”
"Some people suspect that...this is a sign that the auspicious protector of China is about to awaken and begin to protect China!"
Mi Yun suddenly took a breath of cold air: "Protecting the country and auspiciousness?"
"Does China already have such auspiciousness?"
Protect the country and be auspicious, the sacred object of Taoism!
Since the Xiahou clan turned their family into a country and established a Taoist tradition, only the Xiahou clan's human emperor has ever owned an auspicious golden crow to protect the country!
The golden crow protects the country and shines in all directions.
The sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers are all things you should follow!
This is also one of the reasons why the Human Emperors are able to gather the true form of the Golden Crow.
but……
Shouldn’t only the Human Emperor be able to summon the auspiciousness of protecting the country?
Could it be that my grandson has the appearance of an emperor?
