1071 Killing with Words

"Wait, this time I really annoyed Gu!"

Looking at the altar below and the corpses of the three thousand children around Chongxuan, Zong Shou only felt a sting in his eyes, and the hostility on his sword became stronger.

"Though these three thousand boys were not the fault of being alone, they died because of being alone!"

With a slight flick of his sleeves, Xiaori rushed down from the midair, and rushed towards the heavy Xuanzhen.

The latter changed color slightly, immediately stamped his finger and swung out his magic sword. Circles of ripples visible to the naked eye spread out in all directions.

But just as soon as this spiritual method was triggered, it had already affected the injury.

Although he had already entered the holy rank a few years ago, the Yin-Yang Nail Heart Curse would have harmed his life and would damage his lifespan for a thousand years. At this time, he was backlashed by the righteousness of heaven and earth, almost devouring the essence of life. In the body, the chakras are broken, and the power that can be mobilized at this moment is very little.

The magic sword was shattered by Xiao Ri's palm, and then rushed to his side. With one claw strike, Chongxuan's head and body instantly turned into minced meat.

Seeing Chongxuan's death, Zong Shou felt the anger in his chest and let it out a little.

In my heart, I can't wait to delay this heavy mystery, but at this moment, it can only be like this.

Then he looked at the layman Xuezhai on the opposite side, with sarcasm in his eyes: "Is this what your Confucianism is doing? If you are dissatisfied with acting alone, regard you as an enemy of Confucianism and evil spirits. You can fight in a fair and honest way! Even There is nothing wrong with assassination. Why use the lives of these three thousand boys to use this evil forbidden technique? Why are these boys so innocent that you will treat them as ants and despise their lives?"

Xuezhai Layman Liu Li frowned slightly, wanting to say that this was the work of Yin Yuzhongxuan and his ministers, and he had no honor with him. Then I thought again, he was there at the time and knew about it. Then he shook his head slightly: "It's all crimes committed by the children, and there is more than enough to die, so there is no need to feel sorry for them."

"Is there a reason to die? Even if it's the law that should be executed, it can be dealt with according to the law of the country. Why use such sorcery to destroy the soul and make it impossible to be reincarnated?"

Zong Shou shook his head with an inconceivable expression: "You Confucianists have a saying, don't do to others what you don't want! Is this how you Liu Li practiced the words of the saints? This stupid king did such unethical things and used this kind of sorcery. As one of the Confucian philosophers, it’s fine if you don’t dissuade him, but you still agree with it?”

Liu Li felt a burst of redness on his face, and snorted coldly: "What the hell are you trying to say? There is no such thing as evil or righteous law in this world, what is evil is just in the heart. If it can kill you, you can use any kind of technique !"

"That is to punish the lonely, to achieve the goal, you can use any means?"

Zong Shou sneered, his eyes ridiculed: "I know that the core of Confucian teachings is the word benevolence! The Book of Rites and Jing Jie said that benevolence is called benevolence! !"

Liu Li's heart twitched, and he felt that Zong Shou's words were like whips whipping him.

"——Book of Rites. The four systems of mourning and clothing. It is said that those who are benevolent can see their love. The Analects of Confucius, Yong Yezhong, also said that those who are benevolent, they want to stand and enter, and they want to achieve and achieve. It is your ancestor, also It has been said that those who complain from complaints and expect them to be sad and benevolent are even more absurd!"

"Again, the Book of Rites. The Doctrine of the Mean says that those who are benevolent are those who enter! Different? Ask yourself in your heart, can what you do conform to this sage's learning? What is your face, worthy of being included in the forest of Confucian scholars? Can you be worthy of several Confucian sages?"

Every time he said a word, Liu Li's complexion became more pale. The qi and blood in the chest are empty, and the throat is slightly sweet, almost vomiting blood.

Only then did he realize that his Dao foundation was already floating.

I suddenly realized in my heart, knowing that I saw this living sage with my own eyes, and was questioned by these sentences, which shocked my heart. So much so that he began to doubt himself and the way he practiced in his heart!

This kid in front of him is really vicious!

But seeing Zong Shou stroking the sword again, he smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Liu, do you know that after today's big victory, there will be five great imperial edicts passed down?"

Liu Li was puzzled, why did Zong Shou tell him these things at this time? But it successfully aroused curiosity, and listened quietly.

"The first edict is to reorganize the three law departments and the Ministry of Justice, so that they are outside the jurisdiction of the ministers. All the ministers and nobles of my cadres are under its jurisdiction. If necessary, or if they violate the laws of the country alone, then they are alone It can also be interrogated, and it can also be punished! And from now on, all corporal punishments will be abolished! Only killing and paying for life—”

Liu Li was stunned, listening to Zong Shou's intention, it turns out that the king is under the law!

It is the real king who breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people!

As for corporal punishment, it has been pursued by Confucianism for thousands of years, but it is not available!

The king is worried about the rebellion of his subordinates, and the corruption of his officials. Therefore, torture warnings such as punishing the nine clans and Ling Chi beheading were set up. Confucianism is not tolerated at all, and there is room for comment.

The powerful landlord wants to make his servants obey his orders, and worry about the ant people stealing his property. Therefore, there are whipping, ink, 劓, 剕, Gong, Dapi and other criminal laws.

Although Confucianism pursues benevolence and forgiveness, what it does is often relaxed by Dao.

Are these ideas now to be completed in the hands of the foolish king in front of him?

How unreasonable! How could this foolish king truly pity the people?

"Corrective punishment is cruel, and it hurts labor even more! If the laws of the country are strict and the people are safe and healthy, why do the people need to break the law with their bodies? Why do they need to be warned by cruel laws? All corporal punishments in the country can be replaced by hard labor!"

Injured labor? Labor instead? It turns out that this is not really for the sake of pity for the people.

Thinking so in his heart, Liu Li bit his lip, his face turning purple.

"Second edict! Subsidize farmers with national taxes. You Confucians secretly say that I put more emphasis on business than agriculture, and I will collapse sooner or later? Actually, it is not the case. Dao, Zong Shou still understands. Farmers’ income is meager, and sooner or later they will go to work frequently, which is a big problem. If this is the case, then I will subsidize money so that farmers can farm with peace of mind!” Liu Li snorted coldly, thinking However, he was shocked. In private, he secretly ridiculed this national policy of keeping and working hard more than once.

It is said that even if the big merchants do not go to conquer, it will not take long for the country to collapse.

But it never occurred to Zongshou that there is such a way to subsidize farmers' income with national taxes, which is just a whimsical idea-but in this way, this problem of farming and grain cannot be a flaw in the country.

Workers, peasants, scholars and merchants, in the eyes of this monarch, are workers and peasants still superior to scholars and merchants?

"The third imperial edict! All servants who are young must set a salary standard and limit the time of work. In addition, there is also the national tax. Since it is collected from the people, it naturally needs to be used for the people. The lonely general ordered the cabinet to promote pensions. The gold. Make workers and peasants young, so that they will not be old and widowed, and they can enjoy peace!"

In Liu Li's eyes, he was stunned again, why is it such a strange policy country?

"It's nothing more than taking in the heart and wasting the country's children!"

But Zong Shou's pure white air column suddenly produced a trace of golden breath. It is still the most pure and pure, but it is even more majestic and upright. When people look at it, they are willing to surrender and bow down.

Above, the dragon and phoenix chirped again, the dragon's roar was powerful, and the phoenix's cry was clear!

Holy Emperor!

Liu Li's eyes narrowed again. The former Zongshou was just a king, a sage king. Only at this moment can he truly be compared with the three holy emperors in ancient times!

But what kind of mystery is there in this national policy that has been kept, which has caused such a big change in its luck?

To make this paradise so happy? To make this country so prosperous?

Zong Shou shook his head. It is really difficult for people of this era to understand the concept of 'consumption'.

Only when they are old and worry-free, will the people of the Cloud Realm be willing to spend money instead of saving their hard-earned money and hiding their hard-earned money in earthen jars in their cellars to rot.

Confucianism always says that it is necessary to hide wealth from the people, but what is the benefit of hiding wealth like this?

It is better to return the wealth of the country to the people than to accumulate it in the treasury.

"The fourth edict is to clear up the farmland, and the government and the gentry will pay the grain together. After today, the trading of the farmland is prohibited. The Daqian imperial court will fund the purchase and sell it to the landless people with a loan at a low price! The land will be distributed equally!"

At this time, not only Liu Li, but even the Yuntai Zhenjin was shocked.

Isn't this Zongshou afraid of offending all the dignitaries in his country? Are you not afraid of rebellion?

No, what is Zong Shou afraid of? In command of three million undefeated soldiers, and even defeated the big merchants! Admired by the people under heaven, he has unparalleled prestige in Daqian.

Such a national policy benefits everyone in the world. Even if the powerful families are dissatisfied, they cannot resist this surging trend!

Furthermore, because of Confucianism, most of the powerful disciples who had been educated in the territory of Dagan left the imperial court of Dagan, and even secretly linked up with the great merchants.

At this time, even if you want to stop it, it is impossible. Today, after the war, we must guard against Zongshou, settle accounts after the fall, and settle the crime of treason and treason!

I remember that the Taizu of the Great Shang Dynasty also mentioned it when he raised his troops.

Later, after the unification, it was nothing.

Zong Shou's method is obviously more moderate and more feasible, or it may really be successful by him.

On the other hand, Liu Li's eyes were tearing, he already figured it out, once these four imperial edicts came out, nearly 90% of the people's hearts would be wiped out!

This makes them Confucianism, how should they deal with themselves?

Although this is not burning books and burying Confucianism, it is ten times more vicious than what Emperor Qin did back then!

How can Confucianism still claim to be the only orthodox religion in the world?

Showing it with his eyes, he saw that golden aura on the top of Zongshou's head quietly increased by another ten feet!

"And the fifth imperial edict is to recruit scholars and comment on Confucianism. Discuss the merits of Confucianism, comment on the faults of Confucianism! Review the learning of Confucianism!"

There was a pause in the speech, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Zong Shou's lips: "Naturally, today, Yin Yu ordered this demon to use three thousand boys to perform this sorcery. You Xuezhai layman stood by and turned a blind eye. But you don't know How will the common people evaluate this?"

That Yin Yu was shocked all over, and clenched his fists tightly. Is this Zongshou trying to envoy the great businessman, make him Yin Yu, and be cast aside by all the people?

A trace of black blood overflowed from the corner of Liu Li's lips, and he was so lost that he let out a last miserable smile.

"What a sage! It's a heart-wrenching every word. I, Liu Li, are really guilty of Confucianism! It is indeed a mistake, a big mistake--"

Instead, he kissed his neck with his sword, and the light of the sword flashed. Liu Li's head fell down in the light of blood.
