Chapter 478

Heaven Dou City, in the Heaven Dou Palace.

While Xue Ke was quietly watching Fan Yun's legal provisions that had not yet been revised, Fan Yun was not idle either.

He got up and walked into the cabinet where the cups were placed, took out a few cups, filled them with some sweet water, and handed them the water to quench their thirst under the flattered eyes of the maids who followed Xue Ke. .

Sitting back in his seat and taking a sip of tea, Fan Yun felt the taste of the tea in the cup was bland, and understood that it was time to make new tea.

After pouring out the tea leaves and tea water in the teapot, Fan Yun took out the preserved tea leaves from the bracelet and put them back into the pot. He patted the big cat on the head and signaled her to bring in the kettle placed in another room.

Seeing the two feet ordering him like this, the big cat squinted at Fan Yun, then rolled its beautiful white eyes, and patted the two feet's leg with one paw to express its dissatisfaction.

Then, the big cat turned its head, glanced at Xue Ke and the others next to it, snorted coldly, and turned around to get something.

With outsiders around, let's give the two feet a little more face.

Not long after, the big cat held a jug in its mouth that was much bigger than her head, walked gracefully into the room, and came to the side of its feet.

Smiling and rubbing Big Cat's head, Fan Yun took the kettle from her mouth and poured it into the small pot on the table that was placed on the small stove. Burned a wick soaked in oil.

"Whoosh~"

Condensing the cloud gas into a feather fan, Fan Yun blows the light wind over the flames to intensify the fire and speed up the process of boiling water.

While Fan Yun was preparing tea, Xue Ke who was sitting on the other side of the table was still immersed in words and laws.

Because of Xue Qinghe's deliberate training, Ning Fengzhi's professor, and her own royal education, even though she has only been a prince for a short time and has little contact with political affairs, Xue Ke still has her own ability and vision.

Looking across the rules and regulations written on the paper, Xue Ke's thoughts flowed rapidly. From the corner of her eyes, she paid attention to Fan Yun who was concentrating on pouring water and making tea, as if she wanted to see through his movements. Think about it.

Xue Ke looked at these laws, which are different from the previous laws in mainland China. They are divided into many sections according to different types of applicable fields, such as constitutional, civil, political, commercial, criminal, and litigation.

Each section covers a very rich scope, and the regulations are complete and detailed, but not too strict.

However, the more she thought about the review carefully, the doubts in Xue Ke's mind became more obvious.

On the one hand, these laws are precise and complete, and it can be seen that the framers thought a lot when writing them, and considered the feasibility of implementing the laws.

But on the other hand, some provisions of these laws made Xue Ke feel too "naive", which belonged to the fantasy of idealists, and was somewhat unrealistic.

These two aspects appeared in one law at the same time, which made Xue Ke faintly feel a kind of separation.

Why does this happen?
Putting down the many articles that had been briefly read in her hand, Xue Ke turned her head and glanced at the setting sun and the slanting setting sun outside the house, and looked at Fan Yun who was teasing the cat again, thought for a moment, and asked:
"Brother Yun, I took a brief look at this law, and it is really complete beyond my imagination. Even the law that the empire is proud of looks like a rough and simple outline in front of this draft. "

"Brother Yun, did you make this up yourself?"

Facing Xue Ke's question, Fan Yun shook his head, released his hand from the teacup, put one hand on the big cat's head, scratched his five fingers, and sat up straight:
"No, the original and main body of this whole set of laws was actually written by my teacher Fan Zhe. I'm just making revisions and deletions."

The old man left behind far more law books than what Fan Yun put on the table now. Even if Fan Yun deleted many inappropriate provisions, what remains is still very complicated.

Over the years, it took Fan Yun a lot of effort to amend some outdated legal provisions.

"Oh, that's right." Xue Ke nodded, "Brother Yun, your teacher is really amazing."

Xue Ke remembered that the editor-in-chief Fan Zhe was written on the covers of many educational textbooks and popular science books circulating in the mainland, which already made Xue Ke feel very powerful.

Now I know that this law book was also written by Fan Zhe...

Xue Ke can only sigh with emotion about the difference in talent between people.

"Well, after you read it, do you have any suggestions?" Seeing that Xue Ke seemed to be in a daze, Fan Yun asked after refilling her cup with a cup of tea.

After hesitating for a while, Xue Ke glanced at Fan Yun, who had sincere eyes, and finally said: "Actually, I think Brother Yun, you compiled the code, and it feels a little different from the many laws that currently exist in the mainland..."

"Whether it is the Tiandou Empire or the former Star Luo Empire, the laws of the empire have always only stipulated what is not allowed to be done, and what kind of punishment will be imposed. There has never been a regulation like this, which also states What rights do citizens have, and what obligations should they fulfill.”

Flicking across the stacked papers, Xue Ke pointed to the stack of legal provisions and asked:

"Aren't you worried that after the people learn this, they will enlighten the people's wisdom and become more difficult to manage?"

"And..." Xue Ke flipped through the pages, found the piece of paper that she thought was difficult to realize, and pointed to one of them, "All men are created equal."

The streamer named Complex flashed away in his eyes, and Xue Ke asked in a very soft voice:

"Brother Yun, you also know that human beings have been unequal since birth. Not to mention intelligence and health, people can be divided into two poles by the presence or absence of martial arts and soul power... How can we talk about equality in such a world? "

Fan Yun's fingers rubbed under the big cat's chin, scratching her so comfortably that her eyes narrowed and her mouth made a soft groan. After listening to Xue Ke's question, he looked at Xue Ke and replied:

"Yes, no matter how you whitewash it, there is a gap between people, such as intelligence, physique, appearance, strength, etc., everyone's situation is different, this is an unchangeable objective existence."

"The so-called all men are created equal does not mean these things, but that everyone is an independent and equal individual in personality, a life worthy of respect, and equal in legal status."

"If the law is violated, regardless of status or status, it should be executed in accordance with the law."

"The gap between people on this continent is too great. If we don't emphasize it, many people don't even feel that they are the same species as ordinary people."

"The same goes for power and status..."

Looking at Xue Ke, Fan Yun continued: "This is not good...but the conceptual situation is also difficult to reverse. After thinking about it, I have to add this to the law..."

"Maybe the effect of the law is not good, but it's better than not having it at all. It's better than nothing."

Fan Yun sighed.

"As for why the rights and obligations of the common people are added...will they be awakened by the wisdom of the people?"

Fan Yun chuckled, and asked Xue Ke: "The imperial examination has been implemented for several years, and most of the people who pass it are ordinary people. Do you think that they, who have enlightened the wisdom of the people, will definitely become an obstacle to our management? "

"Maybe, but as far as it is concerned, the wisdom of ordinary people is also a great help to us."

"And, the law needs to be able to protect others, especially ordinary people."

"After all, strong people with power encounter threats and injuries and can rely on their own abilities to solve troubles, but what about ordinary people who don't have power?"

Touching the big cat's head, Fan Yun added:
"The only thing they can rely on is the law."
