Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 91: The government of children

Seeing Deng Fei's resignation, Zhao Wuxi bowed slightly and said: "Sir, why did you say this, I heard that Meng Xizi, the three ministers of Lu State, had ordered his second son to be corporal Confucius before his death. I also heard Confucius say that if three people act, then I must have my teacher, no matter the status, one day is a teacher for a lifetime, and the teacher is good at laws and regulations, enough to teach me. Liuyi Shi and Fu are also scholars, please don’t shirk.”

From the mastery of knowledge, it can be seen that in the late Spring and Autumn period, it was already the era of the fall of the clan and the rise of scholars. Wu Xie looked down on some nobles who were ignorant, ignorant and arrogant. I am very fond of the taxis who are the backbone of the society in the future and support the axis of Chinese civilization, such as Lao Dan, Confucius, Deng Fei, etc.

Deng Fei couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept it, and couldn't help but glance at Wu Xie again.

It was still early to leave the class, so Wu Xie sat opposite Deng Fei and asked him some questions about the criminal law of Jin. As a later generation, he paid more attention to the law. Because from a loose patriarchal clan to a well-organized country with laws and orders, this is the goal that Zhao Yang is striving for, and it is also the only way for the Zhao family in the future.

During the chat, Wu Qi learned that Deng Fei's family, from the far south, is a descendant of Deng Guo with the surname Man. Deng Guo was originally the mother-in-law of the King of Chu. After his nephew, King Wen of Chu, was attacked and perished, part of Deng's public family entered Chu as a scholar, and even had a Sima. The rest went north to the Central Plains and lived in Zheng State. They had served as judges and assisted Zichan in casting punishment books, so they were very proficient in criminal law.

Deng Fei came to Jin a few years ago as a wanderer, and joined the Qin family. consultant.

Speaking of the law, I talked about the first person who made the written law public, Zheng Qingzichan, whom Deng Fei highly praised.

"Zheng Zi's birth name is Siqiao, one of the seven Mus of Zheng State. In the past, he produced a cast of punishment books and published them in Xinzheng, so that the people of the country could watch and know the reason for the punishment. Fei was still in his infancy at that time."

Zhao Wuxi said: "However, Wuchen heard that Uncle Jin, the doctor, criticized Zichan's move. The debate was right and wrong. Could you tell me about this in detail, sir?"

Deng Fei naturally knew all about it. It turned out that when he learned that Zichan had cast the punishment book, Zichan's friend in Jin, Yang Tong's uncle, wrote a letter to persuade him. The letter said this:

At first, I had high hopes for you, but now I am completely desperate. The ancient kings did not formulate criminal laws because they were afraid that the people would fight for it, but they could not prevent crimes. Once the commoners are made aware of the law, they will no longer be afraid of the superiors, and a fighting spirit will arise because of this. They will give up their rituals and be levied on the punishment book. Every word and sentence engraved on it will be litigious and clear. The result will be chaos and bribery.

In the past, when there was chaos in the government in the Xia Dynasty, "Yu Punishment" was written; when there was chaos in the Shang government, "Tang Punishment" was written; Not all will come to the end soon. Therefore, if you issue a sentence now, even if you succeed temporarily, your country will sooner or later fall into an ungovernable state.

Shu Xiang finally prophesied angrily: I heard that the country will perish, and there must be more control. What I'm talking about is what is going on right now. The Zheng Kingdom will decline under your rule!

After listening to Zhao Wuxi, he shook his head and said, "However, the rule of the saints that Uncle Xiang pursued cannot be repeated. The era of ritual rule has come to an end. Wu Xian expected that there will be hope in the future only by ruling the country with criminal laws and laws. Soon after Uncle Xiang's death. , his family was labeled as a rioter, and soon fell into disrepair, but it was Zichan's governance of Zheng that was effective, making the first district of Zheng a small country, but Jin and Chu dared not underestimate it."

However, the reason why Shu Xiang had such an idea was probably because he was in the Luan Ying Rebellion, and because his younger brother Yang Tong Hu was a party of the Luan clan, he was imprisoned by the Fan clan and almost died in prison. And his other younger brother, Uncle Yang Tong, who was also a prison official, took bribes and was attacked and killed. Therefore, because of these two experiences, Shu Xiang has a kind of disgust and distrust of criminal law.

Zhao Wuxi also knew that the government of Zichan was a top-down reform, which not only safeguarded the interests of the Zheng Kingdom's office, but also restricted the privileges of Qimu and other nobles. He rectified the land system, re-delimited the land boundaries of the public, officials and commoners, organized the people of the country and the public according to Shiwu, taxed private fields according to the mu of land; And promulgated a written law; the implementation of the employment system that the son of a high-ranking official must also be successful in his studies before he can enter politics.

It is very rare that this reformer faced the incomprehension and slander of the Chinese people, did not destroy the village school, and allowed the Chinese people to openly discuss politics there. You know, what they sing is "Take my clothes and I will make them, and I will take my land and rank them. Whoever kills the child, I will go with it" ah!

Zhao Wuxi asked himself that he couldn't do this. When Chengxiang people objected to his implementation of the Daitian Law, what he did was to use the words of ghosts and gods to coerce public opinion.

Deng Fei said eloquently: "Of course, so there is only one sentence in Zichan's reply to Uncle Xiang. The overseas Chinese are not talented and can't reach their descendants. I will save the world!"

The meaning of this sentence is: I, Gongsun Qiao, are not sages. ! I can't accept your persuasion, I can only remember the grace of your persuasion!

"Fantastic!" Zhao Wuxi couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Zichan's remarks were too appetizing for him. This is the sympathy between the two realists separated by two thousand years.

Vaguely, Zhao Wuxi also felt that what he had done was actually quite in line with the political views of Zichan. Perhaps, the general direction of his future governance of the territory and family has been found.

However, he laughed again, now that he is only the slaughter of a village, with only more than 2,000 people under his control, so he is so ambitious, he is still learning from Zichan, thinking about how to "save the world".

Like Zhao Wuxi's New Deal in Chengxiang, Zichan also slapped opponents in the face with facts.

At the beginning of his political career, Zichan was cursed by the Chinese people to "go to death", but a year later, the song became "I have children, and they teach them; I have fields, and they grow. Heir" praise. Deng Fei described the situation when Zichan died, saying that no one in Xinzheng City did not cry, and even Confucius in Lu State sighed: "Zican is the legacy of ancient times."

Before he knew it, the bell rang for the start of the class in Pan Palace, and Zhao Wuxi suddenly got up. He and Deng Fei had a good chat, but he actually forgot the time.

Deng Fei sent Wu Xie to the outside, cupped his hands and said, "I can let a gentleman teach him, Fei is afraid and ashamed, my knowledge is actually far inferior to my brother Deng Xi in Zheng State, but unfortunately he insists on the punishment of non-children. , and he made up "Bamboo Punishment" by himself, in order to harass the world and litigate for the people..."

Deng Analysis? The person he was talking about, Zhao Wuxi didn't remember much, and he didn't know if he had left a name in history, but it was a very unique approach to open up the law of childbirth and practice the law privately.

After he said goodbye to Deng Fei, he walked out the door. He had only chatted for a moment, and Zhao Guangde, who was outside the door, was probably in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, when he came out to take a look, he saw the little fat man obediently standing at the door like a boy. The rising sun made him sweat. Out of trust and respect for Zhao Wuxi, he did not go in to urge him.

This made Wu Xie a little surprised, and felt that apart from letting the little fat man run wild on the way of cooking, in other respects, this person can still be cultivated.

It is also a tradition in the Pan Palace to learn martial arts in the morning and literature in the evening, so this morning's class is swordsmanship.

Zhao Wuxi changed into a black swordsman uniform with a short top that was easy to move around, and wore the two-footed sword that he had been using since he went to the palace, and walked to the sword room with Zhao Guangde.

The swordsman, the gentleman is also armed, so he defends himself. Because of its lightness to carry, the beauty of wearing it, and the quickness of use, from the Western Zhou Dynasty, the sword became a fashion for male aristocrats~www.wuxiahere.com~ In the Jin state, there was also a regulation that "officials carry swords". All nobles and officials must carry swords.

Moreover, swords are not only etiquette and decoration, not only a symbol of status and rank, but also a weapon that can kill. As the most widely used short soldier on the battlefield, the corresponding swordsmanship came into being.

The sword room is located on the side of the peach forest, and it is somewhat similar to the later Neon Kendo Hall. Of course, it was not a saber, but a wooden sword or a blunt unbladed bronze sword.

As soon as Zhao Wuxi walked in, he felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. The surrounding teenagers who were holding wooden swords and slashing at him stopped one after another and turned their attention to him. Most of them were the sons of doctors from Fan and Bank of China.

At the position near the side door, Le Fuli, who shrank his head and head, was separated from the crowd, and winked at Zhao Wuxi, as if he wanted to remind him of something.

Wu Xie was alert, just about to turn around, but found a person, an acquaintance who had disappeared for a long time, stopped in front of him.
