My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 126 The king’s brother raped a common girl?And such good things!
Three days later.

Xianyang Palace and Qilin Palace.

The long-lost imperial meeting was held again.

Lu Buwei spoke in a deep voice: "Today's meeting is to discuss the "New District Interim Law"!"

"All territories newly attached to Da Qin will be regarded as new areas."

"The new area will not implement the Qin law for the time being, but will govern it with three chapters of the law to give the new people time to accept and learn the Qin law."

"The "Interim Law" will be implemented for five years."

"During this period, land tax, calculation tax and other taxes, military service, and corvee are all the same as those in Qin, and no preferential treatment will be given."

"Five years later, all laws and regulations in the new area will be implemented as in Qin Dynasty."

"Please ask all the gentlemen to hand over the "Provisional Law" to all your ministers."

Formulating laws is a very complicated matter. It must not conflict with the existing Qin laws, and the words need to be carefully used to avoid misunderstandings. It also needs to be easy for legal officials to understand, and corresponding legal questions and answers must be issued to go one step further with fictitious cases. explanation of.

Ying Chengyu came up with the new district interim law with a slap on his forehead, but it took Lu Buwei two months to finally compile and revise it into the "New District Interim Law"!
Now, it is finally time for this law to take the stage.

As the doctor handed the scrolls of bamboo slips to the court officials, Lu Buwei also felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Although this was different from what he had originally envisioned, it was a big step forward for clemency and probation.

Lu Buwei doesn't know how receptive the current court is to leniency and probation.

Soon, the first voice of opposition appeared.

Meng Wu stood up, held his hands in his hands, and asked in a solemn voice: "May I ask Prime Minister Lu, if the new area will not be punished by the Qin law for five years after it has been annexed, does this have anything to do with the military code?"

Lu Buwei shook his head: "After the people in the new area join the army, they first concentrate on studying the "Military Rules" to understand the rewards and punishments in the army."

"At the end of the study period, rewards and punishments will be given according to the "Military Rules"."

Meng Wu frowned slightly: "If this is the case, it will not be fair to the soldiers in other areas."

"It's their problem that they don't understand the "Laws of Qin", not Qin's problem, let alone the generals' problem."

"If the soldiers from the new area do not govern the army according to the "Military Code" after joining the army, the soldiers from the old area will have to follow the "Military Code" after joining the army. This is a great injustice in rewards and punishments!"

"How can soldiers be so willing?"

"And if the army has already marched out and fought with the enemy before we have finished studying the "Military Rules", how will we manage the army!"

"If those soldiers in the new district violate the "Military Code", how will we punish them!"

Meng Wu's opposition was unexpected by Lu Buwei.

A series of laws and regulations such as Shang Yang's heavy punishment and military nobility laws all served the Qin military.

If you want to change the details of the law, even if it is to change the military title, the military will not say anything.

But if the underlying logic of Da Qin's laws is to be disturbed, how can the military endure it?

Lu Buwei nodded slightly: "General Meng's words are correct and consistent with the discussion."

Lu Buwei knew very well that if he wanted to convince the military, he could not just pass specific laws and regulations, and simple debate was even more useless.

It is about making the military believe that this is a new rule that is good for them and at least does not touch their interests!
Meng Wu bowed his hands and saluted: "The last general is a warrior. He is not knowledgeable in literary matters. He will not be able to do what he advises."

"The general only knows one thing: fairness is the most important thing in the army!"

Before Meng Wu could sit down, Pingzhun ordered Wu Tang to stand up again: "I think this law is inappropriate!"

"Lu Xiang knows that merchants are all good at flattery."

"The "Golden Bull Rules" forced merchants to submit to the jurisdiction of the imperial court."

"The "New District Interim Law" seems to give the newly attached area five years to learn the Qin Law, which is a generous move."

“But for merchants, this is a great opportunity!”

Wu Tang said seriously: "The law is not only a restraint on the head of Guizhou, but also a protection of the head of Guizhou."

"Without the protection of the Golden Rule, those merchants would have allowed the Guizhou leaders to owe money for 100 years!"

"If the newly-attached land is given five years of freedom, the leader of Guizhou in the newly-attached land will not be able to turn around for the rest of his life!"

Immediately after Wu Tang, courtiers stood up one after another and launched a fierce attack on Lu Buwei.

Ying Zheng's ambition to engulf the six countries is still only known to a few people.

Even officials who knew Ying Zheng's ambitions had no idea what challenges Da Qin would face if it unified the world in ten or twenty years.

They could not understand the difficulties that Ying Zheng and Ying Chengyu saw that Da Qin would face in the future.

Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng could not say in court that Ying Zheng was determined to dominate the world.

Then it becomes a national policy!

Therefore, even Lu Buwei was a little unable to resist the fierce attack of all the courtiers.

Seeing Lu Buwei showing signs of fatigue, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "Silence!"

Zhao Gao and other eunuchs immediately shouted: "Quiet!"

After giving an order, Chang Yun picked up the knocked-over hair crown and returned it to its original position. Meng Hai also picked up his lower clothes and walked back, and calm returned to the Qilin Hall.

Only then did Ying Zheng speak: "I have read the "Book of Shang Jun" and found out something: etiquette and laws are determined by the time. Regulations and orders are all in accordance with their suitability. Soldiers, armor and equipment are all suitable for their use."

"Therefore Shang Jun said: If there is no way to govern the world, the country will not need to follow the ancients!"

"The "New District Interim Law" is an attempt, an attempt made by the Qin Dynasty in response to the current national conditions."

“You will inevitably face many problems while trying.”

"Since there is a problem, find the problem and solve it."

"My dear friends, you can write your thoughts in your heart as a remonstrance to me, so that I can take a closer look at it." Lu Buwei cast a grateful look at Ying Zheng.

Lu Buwei had thought that he would face great resistance when implementing reforms, but Lu Buwei also did not expect that the resistance he would face would be so great.

Almost the entire court was criticizing him!
Fortunately, Ying Zheng helped him control the situation, allowing him to go back and discover the problems that the courtiers saw based on their remonstrances, identify why the courtiers objected, and make further revisions.

Otherwise, the "New District Interim Law" may have been aborted before it was launched!

The ministers were unwilling to accept it, but since Ying Zheng already said he had something to say, he came to remonstrate with him, so there was no point in continuing this topic.

The ministers could only helplessly hand over their hands: "Wei!"

Ying Zheng asked quietly: "My dear friends, is there anything else you would like to report?"

The middle doctor Qi Mang took a step forward and bowed his hands: "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Qi Mang looked at Ying Zheng and said in a deep voice: "I will impeach the Lord of Chang'an for raping the women of the people in Yongcheng!"

Ying Zheng looked astonished: "Chang'an Lord actually did such a thing?!"

Brother Wang went to rob civilian girls?

And such good things? !
Seeing the shock on Ying Zheng's face, Qi Mang thought that even Ying Zheng did not expect Ying Chengyu to be so shameless, so he said angrily: "According to the report from the subjects of Yongcheng, Lord Chang'an left the city on horseback the same day after offering sacrifices in the ancestral temple."

"When we returned to the city, Chang'an Jun's car was already full of women!"

"Yongcheng County Magistrate Shi Cang wanted to inspect the vehicle and verify the woman's identity, but Lord Chang'an threatened him with force!"

Many courtiers immediately came out angrily and threw their hands:

"Your Majesty, even if Lord Chang'an is my Young Master of the Qin Dynasty, he cannot do such a violation of the law. I advise you to arrest Lord Chang'an immediately and return to Xianyang City for questioning!"

"Robbing civilian girls? How could Lord Chang'an do such an outrageous act?"

"As the Young Master of the Qin Dynasty, Lord Chang'an should set an example for the Great Qin Dynasty. I believe that Lord Chang'an can imitate the Young Master's piety and uphold the laws of Qin with his own body!"

"What kind of person is Lord Chang'an? How could he rob civilian girls! I think this must be a fraud!"

Rape of women is a serious illegal act, and according to the "Qin Code", it is enough to be sentenced to death!
Robbery of women is a serious violation of ethics. Even Tengfu and other Ying Chengyu's subordinates were embarrassed to defend this behavior and could only say that it was not necessarily true.

On the high platform, Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice: "Doctor Qi, you said that Lord Chang'an raped the women of the people, is there any evidence?"

Qi Mang bowed his hands and said, "When Chang'an Lord raped the women of the people and entered the city, the city gate guards witnessed them with their own eyes."

"Now there are ten Yongcheng city gate guards standing outside Xianyang Palace waiting to accept the king's summons."

"I advise you to quickly order Lord Chang'an to return to Xianyang for questioning!"

Qi Mang didn't want to use this to convict Ying Chengyu. He just wanted to use this method to call Ying Chengyu back to Xianyang City.

Ying Zheng stood up and spoke coldly: "Last year, there were rumors that slandered Lord Chang'an, and many courtiers were slandering Lord Chang'an and plotting rebellion."

"But what's the result?"

"Not only did Lord Chang'an never conspire to rebel against the country, but he also seized all the territory of Korea from our great Qin!"

"And today, Doctor Qi also said that Lord Chang'an raped the women of the people."

"What kind of character my brother-in-law is, I know better than all your ministers!"

"I, the great hero of the Qin Dynasty, should not be humiliated like this, let alone have to go back to Xianyang City to be questioned just because of a complaint."

"When I go to Yongcheng in person, I will ask the Lord of Chang'an in person."

Ying Zheng didn't think Ying Chengyu would do such things as raping women. Ying Zheng knew very well that Ying Chengyu was not someone who indulged in vulgar tastes.

Moreover, the maids and palace maids in Chang'an Palace and Chang'an Lord's Palace are all beautiful, so does Ying Chengyu need to rob civilian girls?

So what if Ying Chengyu really went to rob civilian girls?
Ying Chengyu is already 17 years old. It's time for someone at such an old age to have a child even if they don't get married!
In order to make Ying Chengyu willing to stay as a queen, Ying Zheng, Mrs. Han and the Queen Mother Huayang all worried.

If Ying Chengyu really likes folk girls and is willing to have children with them, Ying Zheng and the Queen Mother Huayang must work together to help Ying Chengyu deal with the situation so that those folk girls can safely give birth to Ying Chengyu's children!
Qi Mang looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief: "Your Majesty, the witness has arrived. I am definitely not making false accusations against Lord Chang'an!"

"Even if the king trusts Lord Chang'an as a person, he should summon Lord Chang'an back to the court for questioning!"

Lu Buwei said in a deep voice: "Chang'an Lord used his title as a lord to rape the daughters of the people? I think it is unlikely."

"Chang'an Lord's return to Yongcheng is for a triumphal sacrifice. Wouldn't it be a joke to our ancestors to summon Chang'an Lord back to the court for such a reason?"

"No need to mention this!"

While speaking, Lu Buwei looked at Qi Mang with a funny look.

If this kind of thing happens to others, it is indeed enough to be summoned back to Xianyang for questioning.

But on Chang'an Jun?

You really don’t know how much the king loves Lord Chang’an.

Even if I don't take action against Lord Chang'an now, why don't you restrain yourself?
Seeing both Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei saying this, Qi Mang could only helplessly hand over his hand: "Wei!"

Huang Jie sighed softly and had no choice but to report: "Your Majesty, I received a report from Yongcheng County Magistrate Shi Cang today."

"Three days ago, Dazheng Palace and Yongshou's sleeping chamber were both set on fire by thieves."

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly shrank: "Chang...are the Queen Mother and Lord Chang'an okay?"

Lu Buwei closed his eyes and didn't even look.

Your Majesty, the first thing you want to ask is whether Lord Chang'an is safe, right?
The truth is that you dote on Lord Chang'an, but no matter how much you dote on him, you must have a certain limit!

Is Chang'an Jun's safety more important than the safety of his biological mother?
Huang Jie cupped his hands and saluted again: "Thanks to the blessing of our ancestors, the Queen Mother and Lord Chang'an are both fine."

"However, the Nangong eunuch Lao Ai reported that the Queen Mother was trembling because of the fire."

"The eunuch Lao Ai asked the king to move to Yongcheng to comfort the queen mother!"
