Subverted This is the Emperor Chat Group

"Everyone is saying that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had many cruel officials, but that only shows that during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the tradition of the Qin Dynasty was still preserved. It was Confucianism on the outside and law on the inside!"

"Legalists do things according to the law, why is it so cool?"

"If you think it's cool, why are you breaking the law?"

........................

Zhao Guangyi's face was livid.

Great Song God of War:

"Don't steal the concept."

"Wu Zetian's ruthless officials are different from Han Wudi's ruthless officials. The methods they use are outrageous!"

........................

Chen Tong smiled.

Chen Tong:

"The method you call Wu Zetian's cruel officials is nothing more than torture the officials!"

"However, using torture on officials is precisely the progress of history!"

"This is more sophisticated than the methods used by the cruel officials during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the implementation of the rule of law is more thorough."

………………

Zhao Guangyi almost laughed angrily.

Great Song God of War:

"Use torture to extract confessions from officials!"

"You actually said it was the progress of history?"

"This is simply too ridiculous!"

........................

Chen Tong shook his head.

Chen Tong:

"Do you think it is unacceptable in the world to use criminal law against officials and use severe torture to extract confessions?"

"You're wrong, you don't understand the methods of ancient judicial criminal investigation at all!"

"In the ancient feudal society, in the process of criminal investigation and handling of cases, it was very difficult to obtain evidence due to the lack of current technical means."

"So, if there is a certain evidence base, it is permissible for the investigators to use torture to extract a confession."

"I asked, do you know this?"

Emperor Wu of Han nodded.

Even though it is far away, it will be punished (Eternal Sage):

"Whether it is the Qin law or the Han law, torture is allowed in the process of handling the case."

"This is reasonable and legal!"

"There are clear rules."

…………

Although Li Shimin didn't want to admit Wu Zetian's achievements, he wouldn't tell lies now because others knew the situation of the Tang Dynasty very well.

Qiangu Li Er:

"During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, torture was also allowed."

"It should be said that in the feudal dynasty, extorting confessions by torture was commonplace."

"This is inevitable."

........................

Chen Tong laughed, this is the most important means to discredit Wu Zetian and Qin Huang Han Wu by taking advantage of the gap between ancient and modern times.

Chen Tong:

"So, in ancient times, using torture to force the palace was a normal procedure, and it was done according to the law."

"However, when this regulation is actually implemented, it is only aimed at ordinary people."

"People at the bottom, when they are suspected of becoming suspects, and when there is certain evidence, if the suspect does not confess, they can use torture to extract a confession."

"Many civilians were beaten to death and maimed, and I haven't seen a single historian record that the officials who attacked the civilians were cruel officials!"

"However, when officials break the law, they will not be punished because they cannot be punished by doctors."

"I just asked, is this fair?"

"It's not fair at all!"

"Why should the common people be tortured to extract confessions, while officials and nobles are not punished?"

"Wu Zetian's cruel officials are only acting according to the law. Since you can use torture to extract confessions from ordinary people, why can't I use torture from officials?"

"Are these officials superior to others?"

"If you want to be tortured to extract a confession, everyone will be tortured to extract a confession, this is the most fair!"

"I've never heard that a historian proposed to reform the ancient methods of criminal investigation and abolish torture to extract confessions."

"On the contrary, they think that it is only natural for the people to be punished to extract confessions. Only in this way can they handle the case efficiently. They have never been soft on the people. Even when the evidence is seriously insufficient, they will beat them into tricks to improve their performance."

"It wasn't until the torture and forced confession fell on their officials that they jumped out and thought it was cruel!"

"Then let me ask, what were you doing before?"

"They are not negating torture to extort confessions, they just want the bureaucrats to avoid torture to extract confessions. What they hate is not the ancient criminal investigation methods, what they hate is that officials have no privileges!"

"Wu Zetian wants everyone to be equal before the law!"

"Although she did not implement humanitarianism when promoting the spirit of the law, Wu Zetian at least managed to make everyone equal before the law!"

"I asked, is this cruel official system a progress of history or a regression of history?"

"Is the system enlightened, or dark?"

Zhu Di suddenly realized that he couldn't care less about taking care of his son now.

Execute Your Ten Clans (Hero Lord of the Prosperous Age):

"Of course this is the progress of history!"

"It's certainly enlightened."

"Why should officials have special privileges?"

"Can they stay out of the legislation?"

"Wu Zetian did a good job. If it was me, I would also let these managers who broke the law be punished as they should!"

........................

Yang Guang sneered.

Infrastructure Maniac (Eternal Ruthless Lord)

"The punishment that the Confucianism respects is not a doctor, it is just adding a talisman to oneself."

"But it's a pity that the Legalists believe that: the emperor broke the law and the common people are the same crime!"

"No one has privileges, no one is above the law of the dynasty."

........................

Cao Cao curled his lips, his eyes full of teasing.

Friends of wives:

"Song God of War, have you been fooled into a fool?"

"Who are the cruel officials dealing with? Those are officials and nobles."

"Those historians can say good things about Wu Zetian?"

"They can't wait to dig Wu Zetian's grave!"

........................

The emperors despised it one after another. Cruel officials were aimed at officials, not at the people, and they were aimed at punishing officials who broke the law. How could it be a tyranny?

When Chen Tong saw the name Song God of War, he couldn't help mocking it.

Chen Tong:

"Only those idiot emperors of the Song Dynasty could not become doctors if they executed their sentences seriously!"

"Officials are corrupt and pervert the law, and carelessly ignore human life. After being found out, one of them can be dismissed."

"It's no wonder that these officials dared to betray the country in the end. Seeing that the Song Dynasty got used to these officials, there was basically no punishment for their mistakes. Who would obey the law?"

Zhao Guangyi almost couldn't catch his breath, his face was almost green.

Zhao Guangyi was going crazy with anger.

Great Song God of War:

"do you know?"

"Those ruthless officials kill people like hemp, and their methods are extremely cruel!"

"You actually told me that the cruel official system is good?"

Chen Tong shook his head, is killing someone wrong?

Chen Tong:
