Daqin started with offering immortal medicine

Without economic development, how can society develop rapidly, and how can the country be prosperous and strong?

Moreover, Li Yang still has a small wish in his heart, that is, he wants the whole world to speak Chinese...

What about English, French, Japanese, all fucked up, in order to reduce the burden on the baby, this matter has to be taken from Qin Chao.

So, to sum up, the first thing Li Yang has to do is to give the people of the world a way to survive.Set a small goal first, for example, let the people of the world have enough food first!

In order for the people in the world to have enough food and a way of life, corvee labor must be restricted first, and when it is time to farm, they must farm with peace of mind, and labor can only be requisitioned during slack. In this way, the livelihood of the world will not be chaotic.

"Zhongcheng, a hundred Qin laws have been preliminarily revised, do you think it is suitable?"

When Li Yang's thoughts were confused, Meng Yi came to him with a bamboo scroll and asked.

"Well, Master Meng has worked hard." Li Yang took the bamboo roll with satisfaction, and at the same time did not forget to say a word of consolation.

Meng Yi smiled bitterly in embarrassment, but he was thinking about what would happen tomorrow morning.

The emperor was furious, would he only kill Li Yang?Or just kill all the legal officials who participated in the legal reform?

Oh, bad luck!

Just when Meng Yi was crying in his heart, he heard Li Yang say unhappily: "Master Meng, this... what the hell is this change called?"

Meng Yi was stunned for a moment, and said in a daze, "Zhongcheng, these one hundred laws were all revised under the guidance of the "Public Law". Are there any deficiencies?"

Li Yang pointed to the bamboo scroll and said: "Look at this one, it's just a fight, a fight, you actually want to impose a prison sentence and cut off the prisoner's kneecap, this...isn't it too heavy?"

Li Yang was really stunned. For future generations, such a heavy punishment is completely incomprehensible to him.

Meng Yi said with an aggrieved face: "Zhongcheng, we have already commuted the sentence."

The officials below also quickly nodded and said: "Yes, I have already reduced the sentence a lot. Does Zhongcheng think that there is still a need to reduce it?"

This time, it was Li Yang who looked confused: "Huh? This... this kind of sentence has been reduced a lot?"

Meng Yi nodded: "Zhongcheng, according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, anyone who fights with an iron weapon shall be sentenced to death. Now he is just a slave, and it is already magnanimous to spare his life."

"..." Li Yang was speechless for a moment.

Seeing that Li Yang didn't seem to believe it, Meng Yi continued to explain: "Zhongcheng didn't know something. The reason why the crime of fighting is serious is that we Qin people advocate private fighting. Shang Jun wanted to make laws to prohibit private fighting, so the crime of fighting is serious. The crime is particularly serious."

Li Yang directly gave him a dead fish eye, and only then did he finally understand what it meant to say that Qin Lu was fiercer than a tiger, this fucking Shang Yang was too inhuman.

Li Yang sighed, and waved his hand: "Reform, re-reform, except for rebellion, all other crimes must not harm the body."

"Ah?" Immediately, everyone was stunned and booed each other.

This means that unless it is a crime of rebellion, it is no longer possible to cut off hands, feet, ears, and noses, even cutting off a finger. Is it still the law?This is simply too merciful, right?

Li Yang rolled his eyes and said: "Ah, what, in the future these private fights will give people serious injuries, depending on the severity of the injuries, they may be imprisoned or corvee for one to ten years. Those who hurt people's lives will be sentenced to death. Those with minor injuries, Moved from the "Criminal Law", another law is called "Public Security Law", or imprisonment or corvee from one month to one year. The specific law, you go down and think about it yourself!"

Meng Yi couldn't help worrying: "Zhong Cheng, will this cause private fighting again?"

Li Yang shook his head: "Your Majesty is worrying too much, don't worry, no one will want to serve in corvee, and after a few years of corvee, almost no one will survive. What's more, you cut off people's hands and feet, It doesn’t make sense, wouldn’t they just starve to death? Why don’t you give me Daqin to build the Great Wall, do some coolies, and accomplish multiple things with one stroke.”

Li Yang had personally experienced the hardships of corvée. He was arrested and sent to build the Great Wall for half a year when he first came to this world.No one can understand the suffering better than him.It was hell there, those overseers were completely inhumane, they didn't treat the servants as human beings, even though he had only been in corvee for half a year, he was still worse than death, and had the idea of ​​suicide several times, and he had also watched Watching many servants fall down like this, and then never get up again, and the corpses are built in the Great Wall like this.

Li Yang knew that, let alone a sentence of ten or eight years of corvée, there were only a small number of people who could finish three years of labor and still be alive.

Meng Yi thought about it, and felt quite reasonable, nodded and said: "It's still Zhongcheng who is thoughtful."

Li Yang smiled: "Get used to it slowly. Once you change your mind, you will naturally understand the key difference between the law of governing the world and the law of striving for hegemony. Governing the world is for peace, and if you want peace in the world, you have to leave a way for people to survive." .As long as they don’t do anything harmful to nature, they have to leave a way to survive, even if it’s just a hope.”

"If you don't do anything harmful to nature, you have to stay alive..." Meng Yi thought for a while, then his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Zhongcheng, I seem to know how to modify the Qin law!"

Li Yang nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, Mr. Meng is a smart person, he can understand a little bit, so Mr. Lao Meng will have to worry about it!"

"Zhong Cheng is polite, these are our responsibilities."

Meng Yi saluted, then went back with the bamboo scroll and continued to revise...

Chapter 19 Praise

Here, Li Yang followed a group of ministers in the prime minister's mansion to amend the laws of Qin, while he sat on the main desk with his legs crossed, leisurely, as if nothing had happened, but outside the prime minister's mansion, the whole country shock!

The news of these two major legal reforms, the abolition of the Five Clans' Joint Situation Law and the release of the "Public Law", exploded in Xianyang City like an atomic bomb, and then spread in all directions with Xianyang City as the center. ...

Wherever the new decree went, the people rejoiced.

Countless people were ecstatic to tell each other, cheering everywhere, or weeping with joy and shed tears of emotion.

Someone under his command was revising Qin Law, but Li Yang seemed to be doing nothing for a while.

Thinking that the new decree has been made public in Xianyang City, why not go to the street to see how the people react, so he changed into his normal clothes and prepared to go out.

"My lord, are you going out?" Li You hurriedly asked when he saw Li Yang who was about to go out in ordinary clothes.

Li Yang nodded: "Exactly, the government plans to go outside to see how the new decree reacts."

Li You hurriedly said: "Then I will send guards to escort your lord!"

Li Yang quickly stopped and said, "It's fine for me to go alone."

Li You was in a hurry: "How can this be possible! Your lord's safety is as important as the country, how can you have no one to protect you? Or, let the lower officials bring a few personal guards to accompany you?"

Li Yang thought, it's good to have someone to protect him, after all, he is now the prime minister of a country, not as much as in the past, maybe some rebellious party will attack him.

"Okay, then thank you General."

"It's the duty of a subordinate official to protect your lord, how dare you speak bitterly!"

Li You saluted, as if he couldn't bear it.

Li You was about the same age as Li Yang. Originally, he thought that although Li Yang's analysis of the law in the Qilin Palace won the emperor's appreciation, he was named prime minister.However, Li Yang was too young, even if he was the prime minister and the head of the government, he would not be able to lead the group of ministers of law under him, so he would have to rely on Meng Yi and Feng Jie for everything.

However, today he was an eye-opener.

This Li Yang, not only did not need to rely on Meng and Feng, he acted vigorously as soon as he came up, and the legal reforms were carried out in an instant, but he also ruled the ministers such as Meng and Feng in a domineering manner, and no one Dare to resist, this really surprised Li You.

You know, Meng and Feng are both Shangqing, and they have a lot of status and status.

In Daqin, everyone knew that Meng Yi was Meng Tian's younger brother. The two Meng brothers had one article and one military.Meng Yi was very close to Qin Shihuang. He went out to accompany Qin Shihuang in the same car, and stayed on the inside to serve Qin Shihuang. It can be said that Meng Yi is the emperor's closest confidant.

And Feng Jie is even more remarkable. Not only is he the son of the right minister, but he is also an official censor and supervisor of all officials. Who dares to offend him?

It can be said that for these two people, even Li You's father, Li Si, did not dare to offend easily, but Li Yang dared to directly force Meng and Feng to amend the law honestly, and even threatened, who would dare If you walk out of the prime minister's mansion, you will be killed without mercy. Be good, don't be too crazy.

Li You asked himself, he was not as courageous as Li Yang, so he couldn't help feeling a little in awe of Li Yang in his heart.
