Song Beiyun

"That is to say, you know that a first-rank official tricked the county magistrate into death?" Miao Yan said with a smile: "First-rank official, what should you do?"

"Kill." Qiaoqiao didn't even blink her eyes: "This person can't be kept, but he can't be blatant... If it were me, I would find that lowly man and let him play the role of a bandit and intercept and kill the rich businessman in the middle of the road."

This... Song Beiyun blinked and looked at Qiaoqiao: "This girl can do it."

Qiaoqiao looked at him embarrassedly and smiled...

"The pariah takes orders, what should you do? The pariah answered." Miao Yan looked at Jin Ling'er: "It's your turn."

Jin Ling'er thought very seriously: "If this is the case, I will definitely be killed too, so why not take this opportunity to kill this guy with one knife, one life for another, a cheap life for a rich life, happy and happy."

"This round is over." Miao Yan said with a smile: "Untouchables, bandits, county magistrates, and first-rank officials died, and rich businessmen lost their wealth and lost everything, so far. There is no happy ending, public opinion, please."

Song Beiyun leaned to the side and lazily shouted: "A country will not be a country..."

Everyone's choice is not necessarily the best choice, and the environment setting has simplified the process for the convenience of the game. No matter what the reality is, there is no winner in this round of the game.If there was one, it would be Song Beiyun who was watching the whole thing with his mouth moving, that is, the civilian class he represented.

The criminals deserve what they deserve. The middle class squandered their wealth, grassroots officials died in foreign lands, and the lowly untouchables fought desperately to kill the bureaucratic class at the top of the pyramid. There are no winners in this game, and everyone loses everything.

"Why is this!?" Jin Ling'er thought hard: "It seems simple, but along the way, you, me, and others have made such a situation. No one is right, but it is indeed a dead end. I can't think of how to break it ah."

Miao Yan picked up the second stack of notes: "Get ready to start the second round, the winner will have a drink."

Chapter 98, May 5

After three rounds of games, the narrators are all winners.

All three ways are games about the law, in which everyone does what they are supposed to do, but the result is not good.

Although the game is very interesting, if you think about it carefully, it is full of weirdness everywhere, and it always feels like an unsolvable problem.

"Why?" Yusheng leaned on the chair and thought hard: "Accordingly, the law is the law, so it's enough to deal with it according to the law?"

Jin Ling'er also frowned: "If this is the case, isn't the world in chaos? But why is it still not in chaos?"

The thinking patterns of the two of them are actually not problematic, not only in line with the characteristics of this era, but even a little ahead of their time.

But they overlooked one very important thing...

"Morality is a moral system." Song Beiyun brought freshly steamed cakes from the kitchen and placed them on the table: "Eat some staple food to pad your stomach."

"Morality?"

"It's virtue." Song Beiyun sat back beside Qiaoqiao and put his hands on the table: "There is no chaos in the world. There is still a moral system protecting the rules in the market, but the moral system is too fragile and can be easily destroyed. For example Hunger, war, poverty. And when the moral system collapses, the legal system becomes the last line of defense of the social system.”

The structure and pattern of Song Beiyun's discourse is very strange. Except for the witty words, the people here can't understand it, so the small team of [-] whys, headed by Jin Ling'er, began to show its power. After a while So he asked Song Beiyun until he was dizzy.

"Come on... I'm afraid I won't be able to pass if I don't tell you today." Song Beiyun rolled up his sleeves and raised his legs: "Then let's start with what the law is. I won't explain what the law is. Let's start with it." Talk about its rules and some of its elusive things for ordinary people."

Jin Ling'er looked at him with her face propped up and said, "Talk quickly."

Song Beiyun picked up a piece of hair cake and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "A large part of my understanding of the law comes from my master's explanation, and part of it is what I learned when I watched Teacher Luo's public class. Different points of view combined a little bit."

"Who is Teacher Luo?"

"Don't worry about it, anyway, he is a person who can preach the word, receive karma and solve doubts." Song Beiyun looked at Jin Ling'er, sighed and said, "Your curiosity is too strong."

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea and moistened his throat: "The law is actually something that can only be used in the last resort. If it is not a last resort, it will not convict people."

"Yeah." Yusheng nodded and said, "Many times are small punishments and big warnings."

"Yes." Song Beiyun nodded: "The premise of the law is a double-edged knife."

"Why?" Jin Ling'er blinked her eyes: "Okay, okay...I don't ask, I don't ask, you tell."

Seeing Song Beiyun's displeased expression, Jin Ling'er immediately stopped talking, and sat quietly by the side to listen.

"The role of the law is to punish crime on the one hand, and to curb power on the other hand. You can understand punishing crime, but you may not understand curbing power."

Song Beiyun looked around, Jin Ling'er swallowed several times when he wanted to speak, Song Beiyun nodded in satisfaction and said, "Jin Ling'er, let me ask you, is the corruption in this world all done by officials?"

"That's right, if it's a common people, it's called stealing." Jin Ling'er said with a smile: "Only those who are officials can call it corruption."

"Then it's all about stealing. Why are people stealing and officials being corrupt? What's the difference between the two?"

Well, when this question continued, Jin Ling'er panicked on the spot. No matter how smart she was, she was still just a girl in her early 16s. How could she understand this, so she shook her head silently.

"The only difference is whether you have power in your hands. Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. One function of the law is to curb the expansion of its power." Song Beiyun raised a finger: "Now let's look back In the first game just now, first-rank officials, county magistrates, wealthy businessmen, thieves, and untouchables. The problems between these people can be clarified with this logic."

Because they were witnesses, even Qiao Yun and Qiao Qiao, who were not so educated, straightened up, and it can be said that they listened attentively.

"Who is the key point in this game?" Song Beiyun laughed: "It's the county magistrate, and the county magistrate is sister Qiaoyun."

"Yeah." Qiao Yun nodded, "It's me."

"Sister Qiaoyun did a very happy and neat thing, and it can even be said to be praised by others. She is chivalrous and proud, with a primitive and simple chivalrous spirit." Song Beiyun first highly affirmed Qiaoyun's motives, but suddenly The topic changed: "However, she overlooked one issue, that is, the county magistrate has no power to deprive a person of his life. It has no power. Even in my Song Dynasty, if the death penalty is imposed, it needs to be reported to the Ministry of Punishment for review. This is the law. One of the means to curb power."

Qiao Yun nodded thoughtfully: "Then what should I do?"

"No, no, no, it's not a matter of how you do it now. Let's judge the relationship between everyone here." Song Beiyun tapped on the table lightly: "What is the basis for you to execute the bandit?"

"He...kidnapped the ticket, and even tore it up! If someone didn't stop him, he thought he was a murderer, and he deserved to die if he did it on purpose!" Qiao Yun continued to display her simple values, and said righteously: "Isn't this the rules of the world? Is it?"

"Look, there is a saying that a chivalrous man uses martial arts to violate the ban. What is the ban? It is the law." Song Beiyun straightened his waist and raised his voice: "Li Qiaoyun! Let me ask you, did the bandit kill people without killing them?"

"Not killed."

"Is that accomplished? Or attempted?" Song Beiyun continued to ask: "Right, attempted. Since it was attempted, how dare you kill him? Who gave you the power? You crossed the line."

Although Qiaoyun was still a little bit dissatisfied, but seeing her little man's serious look, she had no choice but to hold back her full of dissatisfaction.

"Okay, sister Qiaoyun, I know you're not convinced. Just listen to me." Song Beiyun smiled and comforted his first girl with physical contact: "Law and morality should be two sets of rules that don't interfere with each other." He wanted to kill and was ready to execute, but he failed to do it. We don’t distinguish his motives, but just talk about the result. He didn’t kill. The law follows the facts, not the ifs. Since it follows the facts, the fact is that he didn’t Killing, why did he take his life if he didn't kill?"

Qiao Yun thought hard, and Zuo Rou, who was almost sober, suddenly shouted: "I am wronged!!! I am wronged!"

This voice amused everyone in the room, and the atmosphere immediately eased. Song Beiyun also shook his head with a smile and said, "Then sister Qiaoyun, if I give you another chance to re-sentence him, what will you do?"

Qiao Yun thought for a while: "Putting him in custody will cost a hundred bucks, and he will be punished with hard labor."

"Okay." Song Beiyun snapped his fingers: "Director team, come on! Go through it again."

"Come on!" Miao Yan put down Erlang's crossed legs: "The director team is in place, now let's reorganize it."

Soon, the game restarted after the first verdict change, but this time with a completely different outcome.The bandit was sentenced, although it was a heavy sentence, but he did not die, and the pariah regained his freedom, thank you very much.The first-rank official met the bandit in person and said that he would repay his kindness, and then arranged for him to do hard labor in a relatively easy place and promised to protect him in a few years.The rich merchant thanked the county magistrate with half of his wealth, and the county magistrate gave half of the money to the first-rank officials, who used the money to redeem the bandits.

No matter how unrealistic it is, the game is a game after all, but it is a win-win situation after all.The bandit saved his life, the first-rank official saved his face after repaying the favor, the county magistrate found a backer and was promoted to a higher level, the untouchable became a good citizen, and the rich businessman lost half of his wealth but saved his life. Said that half of the family wealth is also as much as [-] Guan.

This can already be said to be the best result. Everyone's appeal and ending are very good, and they are all good within a reasonable range.

"Do you know what the law is now?" Song Beiyun spread his hands: "The law is not used to protect anyone, but to protect the justice of the world. It will not paralyze any party. It restricts everyone and protects everyone. Here is the law, regardless of the indiscriminate and strict laws, it will only ruin the etiquette. As I said before, the law is strict and tolerant."

"Okay!" Yusheng got up suddenly, and cupped his hands towards Song Beiyun: "I have been struggling to solve the problem before, but now you have given me a lamp, so I will write it now!"

After Yusheng hurriedly went to write a policy theory, Qiaoyun also changed from unconvinced to embarrassed. She smiled awkwardly at Song Beiyun, and Song Beiyun reached out and pinched her nose: "Are you still saying that I am confusing black and white?"

"Don't say it, don't say it..." Qiao Yun said in a low voice: "It's okay if I'm wrong."

And Qiaoqiao smiled all over her face: "Actually, I'm not a bad person, right... I want to save people too."

"Of course, people actually have the instinct to act altruistically, as long as they don't violate their own boundaries in all aspects." Song Beiyun said with a smile: "I don't know how kind Qiaoqiao is."

On the contrary, there are a hundred thousand why the princess has not said a word now, she seems to have settled down, and her eyes are different.

As for Zuo Rou, taking advantage of the fact that everyone had no time to worry about her, she secretly hid under the table and poured herself a drink...

"Stop drinking!" Song Beiyun roared: "You drink again..."

Before she finished speaking, Zuo Rou gulped down half a bowl of fruity vodka. She blushed and raised her head, looking at Song Beiyun, hehe.

"It's over..." Song Beiyun shook his head and said, "Qiaoqiao, Zuo Rou may have to squeeze with you today."

"Why can't Sister Qiaoyun squeeze with her, me and..." Qiaoqiao pouted: "Forget it, I don't know what you are thinking yet."

Qiaoyun also blushed when she heard this sentence, but Song Beiyun said indifferently: "The child is talking nonsense, I just have something to talk to sister Qiaoyun in detail, right sister Qiaoyun."

Of course Qiaoyun wouldn't answer the conversation, she just gave him a blank look and went to take care of Zuorou who was already staggering.

At this time, the princess suddenly raised her head: "In other words, there are loopholes everywhere in the laws of the Great Song Dynasty. The biggest loophole is the inability to curb power as you said."

"Imperial Quan is an exception, don't talk nonsense." Song Beiyun quickly stopped: "Imperial Quan is a member of the director team, don't think about it."

Jin Ling'er raised her hand to stop Song Beiyun's words: "Let me think twice..."

Chapter 99: On May 5, Qing also learns to grow melons near Sangyin

As soon as we entered Xiaoman, the temperature suddenly rose. When the clouds opened and the rain came, the boredom and heat rolled in. Hundreds of thousands of disaster victims were separated into their own labor areas, and more newly appointed team leaders were distributing morning meals to them. mung bean soup.

"Give me a break, don't squeeze."

The team leader is also shirtless, sweating profusely all over his body, but when he gathered for training this morning, his superiors said that during the four months from May to September, there will be an extra two dollars in revenue every month , said it is called "high temperature subsidy", which means that there must be a monthly payment of six or seven per month, plus as the team leader, he still has a little power, and these gangsters are all in good spirits, every day. Liang will start working, and he will work hard to become the leader of a large group. You must know that the leader of this large group can earn ten pennies a month.

"Brother Heizi..." A little girl walked up to the group leader and said timidly, "My mother is not feeling well, can I take her share back?"

"Uncomfortable?" Heizi, the group leader, was making mung bean soup for the person next to him, but he looked up and down the little girl: "You just stand by me first, and when I'm done, I'll ask the doctor to take a look."

"That's thanks, Brother Heizi."

While they were talking, three people walked over swaggeringly, Heizi shrank his neck, and immediately shut up, and after they walked away, the little girl asked curiously: "Brother Heizi, what are those people doing? Those who have nothing to do all day are still dressed brightly."

"You don't want to harm me..." Heizi looked at the three people in the distance vigilantly, and said in a low voice, "That's the Jinyiwei of King Fu Qiansui. Those who were beaten, were beaten like this by them, at least half of their lives would be lost."

The little girl nodded again and again, and her face became a little nervous: "Then I'll wait for you at the side."

"By the way...Brother Heizi, when I came, my mother asked me to ask you, are you married?"

Heizi covered the empty pot, wiped his sweat with a towel, and showed an embarrassing expression on his face: "Which girl would like me? I have no father or mother since I was a child, and I am a rascal in the city... ...Hey, don't mention it, just wait, I'll call the doctor to take a look."

"Hey, Brother Heizi, I'm waiting for you." The little girl wiped his sweat with her handkerchief with a smile on her face: "I'll help you look at things."

But at this moment, Song Beiyun was standing next to him wearing a straw hat, smiling all over his face, and beside him were King Fu and King Tai in plain clothes.

"Chitose, you just came back this morning, why did you come here in such a hurry?" Song Beiyun also took a sip with a bowl of mung bean soup in his hand: "Shouldn't you rest more?"

"Stop talking sweet words to me." The King of Thailand said in an extremely aggressive tone, "Did Jin Ling'er live at your place yesterday?"

"Ah..." Song Beiyun coughed: "Yesterday, Her Royal Highness insisted on making me give her a lecture, so I had to let him and Zuo Rou squeeze together."

Speaking of which, Song Beiyun was quite angry. He and Sister Qiaoyun finally managed to be upright, but Jin Ling'er insisted on not leaving. In the end, he had no choice but to let Jin Ling'er and Zuo Rou stay in his room Sleeping, I huddled with Brother Yusheng and dealt with it all night.

Thinking about it now, he is full of anger.

"Brother Wang... why are you so angry?"

"Don't lose your temper? How is it proper for this innocent girl to live in a man's house?" Seeing that he was going to explode with anger, his chest heaved rapidly: "If he dares to do something rude to Jin Ling'er, Today he has to become Eunuch Song."

Song Beiyun coughed and laughed awkwardly: "How dare you..."

On the other hand, Fu Wang smiled, not showing any anger, took a sip of the mung bean soup, and then stared at him: "Huh? Sugar? Where did you get the sugar? It's a precious thing."

"What kind of sugar...if only there was sugar." Song Beiyun sighed and said, "This is the scraps left over from my usual pill making. It only tastes sweet but not sugar. Just a little bit of fingernail can make more than a hundred There is sweetness in the catty soup."

"So amazing?" Fu Wang took another sip, and after confirming that it was sweet, he nodded: "If there are still a hundred schools of thought contending, you are probably a miscellaneous family, right?"

"No, no, I'm a Yin Yang family..."

Song Beiyun smiled bitterly. He really didn't know how to explain sodium saccharin to King Fu. The appearance of this thing was definitely an accident. He originally planned to make nitrogen and potassium fertilizers, but because of a wrong operation, a large amount of ammonia water was produced. He thought about it This ammonia water can't be wasted either, so it took a lot of tossing around, and it took several days to use various alternative raw materials to produce sodium saccharinoid.

This thing is just a placebo, it is useless, it is just used to appease the emotions of the victims, as for the other things, it really has no practical effect.

"Brother Wang, you said that the victims were eating rice bran, why didn't anyone complain?"

The king of Thailand also took a sip of mung bean soup, put one hand on his hips, looked at the house not far away that was laying foundations, and the man who was tamping the earth yelling: "Because there is a rush in this day."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at King Fu: "Can the officials in the palace make things difficult for you?"

"Only them?" Fu Wang raised his head: "Don't say that I am taking advantage of the reason, even if I don't take the reason, what can they do to me?"

"Well, Zhao's character is acceptable, but it will be difficult to turn things around if you rely solely on him and you. You are no longer young, but you are also a person who knows your destiny."

King Tai's words made King Fu smile, but his eyes kept looking at Song Beiyun. King Tai was puzzled, so King Fu simply turned sideways and said to Song Beiyun who was squatting there eating mung beans: "Go and play by yourself. Brother Wang has something to discuss."

"Oh, I see." Song Beiyun nodded and said, "You two princes, go slowly."

Seeing the two old men walk away with shoulder to shoulder, Song Beiyun scratched his chin, and muttered to himself: "Why are the two old men talking about each other, they really came from a compatriot with one wife."

And he finished the mung beans, sank the bowl in the clear stream, and then continued to wander around the refugee settlement.

There have been obvious changes here since the beginning. Various aspects such as pioneering, construction, and hunting have been carried out. The efficiency of the work unit formed by everyone in groups can be said to be very high in this era.There is no shortage of craftsmen among them. They built water trucks and began to store water for irrigation. Although this year's spring sowing has passed, it is still possible to plant some things. Anyway, the seeds do not cost money, and all the victims here are tax-free for five years.

New homes, new vitality, these people are actually very motivated, and because the management is in place, the logistics support is not bad. If there are public grievances, there will be those special pickets, which are what people say "Fu Wang's Jinyiwei" "Mediate.

These people don't care about the victims, their duty is to supervise all those who have power, and the leader of the picket is that bastard Yang Niu'er.

Mixing people naturally has the benefits of mixing people, just like a Tibetan mastiff, not smart or clever, but not only loyal but also strong, as long as he strictly follows the framework set by Song Beiyun for him, he can handle things beautifully .
