Because of the case of the Jiangning Prefecture's student killing Cai Jing and Li Bangyan, Wu Zilong was forced to resign from the position of Minister of Rites. Uploaded by netizens ==This move is nothing more than announcing the world. Wu Zilong eliminated the disaster of the Song Dynasty, Cai Jing and Li Bangyan. Although some people applauded his position, more people sighed and even were indignant. Some people wrote a letter asking the court not to let the loyal and kind hearted, and some people opened their posts to complain to Wu Zilong.

Since Wu Zilong took charge of the Ministry of Rites, he has been committed to promoting the backwards of the society and selecting no materials for the court, and his disciples are all over the court. However, he is very strict with himself. Although he is crowded with people, he has never received a penny of gifts. The surplus of the salary he earns is also used to support poor scholars. Among the talents who are backwards of the society, there are many people who are grateful for Wu Zilong's favor. Therefore, although he was forced to resign, most scholars and ordinary people do not think that he has done something wrong. On the day of farewell, except for Chen Dong and other important officials in the Qingliu River, thousands of scholars who have not yet entered the officialdom, consciously went to the Wuchang Gate Wharf to see him off. The people along the coast were blocked, and Wu Zilong even shouted loudly, as if it was not a farewell, but a welcome to the new official.

Wu Zilong was invited by his friends and disciples to write a book in Hangzhou. Wukang County was the place where Wu Zilong lived for a long time. He bought a farmyard on the bank of West Lake to live in seclusion. At that time, Cai Jing was the magistrate of Wukang County. The righteous man Hu Keji stabbed to death the magistrate of Hangzhou Cai, and Hu Keji was sentenced to lingchi by the court. After Wu Song stole Hu Keji's remains, Wu Zilong openly buried Hu Keji on the bank of West Lake, and wrote a tombstone to praise him with "The righteous man of the Great Song Dynasty". Although tens of thousands of people in the southeastern prefectures and counties wrote a letter to support him, Wu Zilong was demoted and lost his official position for the first time, and he has been proud of it since then.

After the official ship left Ezhou, he walked down the river and was always moored at a place, and the local clear streams were invited to each other. Wu Zilong refused all such social engagements, but when the news spread, many students from the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the

Wu Zilong was jealous of evil in his early years. After serving as the Minister of Rites, he felt that the good and bad officials were mixed, and everyone intersected with interests and invaded each other with interests. The court's orders were not upright, and even the dirty officials were rampant, and the ups and downs were effective, and the people's hearts were difficult to return, and the world was declining. The Ministry of Rites resigned a corrupt official, and a person who had no bad records in the past sat on the official position, but soon fell into the turbid official atmosphere. This situation was not something that could be reversed by killing one or two traitors. Therefore, Wu Zilong believed that to curb the decline of this last days, he had to use heavy dictators and educate people's hearts to do both.

In his early years, Wu Zilong felt that the "Song Zhengtong" of this dynasty could no longer help the world and people's hearts. However, as the Minister of Rites, he had no time and energy, and was not easy to interfere in criminal matters. Although he lost his official position, he was relaxed and determined to compile a new criminal law called "Song Li Law" as the sage said, "Tao Yi Law" and compiled a new criminal law called "Song Li Law" in his letters. He had talked about this matter with many friends and disciples in his letters. After he lived in seclusion in Hangzhou, Wu Zilong closed his door to thank guests, discussed etiquette with several disciples, and wrote books. However, when Zhu Sen came to visit, Wu Zilong had to see him.

Zhu Sen was both the veteran of the Lishe Society and the uncle of Zhao Ke. He taught and educated people at Zhulin Academy, and his reputation was no less than that of Chen, Zhao, Cao, Wu Wu and others. After Chen Dong advanced to the rule, Neo-Confucianism was promoted, Cao Liangshi, Wu Zilong and others were all highly powerful, and they also had conflicts with each other. Only Zhu Sen was transcendent beyond the government and his friendship with everyone remained unchanged. However, when the Lishe Society had to change his view of "Zhao Qi" as the emperor, as Zhao Ke's uncle, Zhu Sen did not blame him for anything. This measure alone made Wu Zilong admire him.

In the suburbs of Hangzhou Prefecture, a bamboo forest is covered with blue bricks and mud tiles. This is where Wu Zilong lived in seclusion. The study was filled with ink fragrance, and there were neatly written manuscripts on the table. On the left is the criminal law of the past dynasties including the "Shangshu" scriptures, and on the right are the Confucian scriptures such as the Zhou Li, the Book of Changes, and the Analects of Confucius. A narrow open space was cleared in the middle of the classics all over the ground, and a small square table was placed, with a pot and two cups on the table. Wu Zilong and Zhu Sen sat opposite each other.

"The humble house is simple," Wu Zilong was rarely very polite, and said with a smile, "What can Brother Zhu teach me about this study of punishment?"

"The study of punishment is not the director of the foolish brother." Zhu Sen was not polite. He also wanted to save the world and the decline of the world. He focused on restraining people and adapting to the principles of nature, which resonated with Zhao Xingde, but he did not have much knowledge in terms of punishment. Wu Zilong worked hard to write the "Song Li Fa". When no one could see him, those who saw him must talk about this unfinished magnificent masterpiece. At Wu Zilong's insistence request, Zhu Sen carefully said: "Although Brother Wu's purpose of supporting people's hearts is good, Brother Wu y

If the method of abolishing the "Eight Discussions" is a great obstacle in the court. For example, 'If greedy and accept bribes, even if one bribe is small, he will also take stolen positions and will not be used for life. Those who accept bribes worth a thousand coins will be transferred to a thousand miles, and those who receive bribes worth a thousand miles will be sent to a thousand miles, and those who consume more than three thousand coins will be punished by strangling.' Is it too harsh? In this case, there are only a few officials in our dynasty who will not be punished by hanging." Zhu Sen thought to himself, "The Song Li Law" is so harsh. When Wu Zilong heard about that matter, he would not know what would he say?

"You must not tolerate bribes with bribes!" Wu Zilong shook his head and said, "Brother Zhu, you were born in a wealthy family. What's the point of asking for a few thousand cents, but you don't know, but for the promotion and fighting against the common people, 10,000 cents can often force people to live. The world is prosperous for profit, and the officials who accept bribes should also give benefits to others. Both greed and bribes must be doubled, or even dozens of times. Local officials dare not offend gentry and wealthy, and often take them from the people. The taxes of the court were already too heavy. How can the people bear the extortion of turbid things? Compared with the sufferings suffered by the people due to bribery, I think it's lighter.

Where!" Wu Zilong took a sip of tea and sighed, "As for the 'Eight Discussions', discussing relatives, discussing nobles, and discussing guests, although it is an ancient system, it is enough to encourage evil spirits now. Who is Cai Jing? Old ministers of three dynasties, so the court has a great difficulty to kill him, but the sky is bright! The sky is bright! The prince violates the law and cannot be the same as the common people! The 'Eight Discussions' theory makes the law only restrict the people who stimulate dogs and thieves, and tolerate the real great evil spirits! The mistake of the legal net can be over the giant whale that swallows the boat, making my great Song Dynasty unstoppable. It is the fault of landing in the current field. It is tolerating the traits!" When he was excited, he slapped the ground and shaking the cup and plate on the table.

Zhu Sen frowned, feeling that this statement was exaggerated, but he had requests from Wu Zilong for this trip, so he did not directly refute him. He only pondered: "Let these two begs go first, and the 'men and women elope, the difference between being over 40 years old is married, and the widow remarried after being mourned for less than three years. The same is true for all traitors. Those with traitors are beheaded and abandoned, and those without traitors are 50 men and women thirty men.' This law has never been heard of in the previous dynasty. Men are happy and women are happy. Can the law manage other people's family affairs?"

Wu Zilong said seriously: "These situations are either incompatible with etiquette or law, or forced to force them. So that's why." He himself felt a little reluctant and explained specifically, "The so-called "expressing etiquette and punishment" is a punishment. The previous dynasty's laws and regulations were rough, and there were many gaps in the ritual and punishment, which led to the decline of the world's style, and those who abide by etiquette and law are not tolerate it. The world's style alone cannot be corrected. Now only by correcting the injustice, 'guided it with etiquette and punishment', and formulating a law that truly "expressing etiquette and punishment" can make the villain have no gaps and let the world know that my Song Dynasty's etiquette and law are not a joke."

Zhu Sen nodded and sighed, "Then 'as long as there is someone who verbally proves it, it is considered a contract without a contract'. Isn't it a joke that everyone should be careful when talking."

"A gentleman is trembling, as if he is on the abyss, as if he is walking on thin ice," Wu Zilong said: "How can he easily speak lies? Besides, if the person who verifies this side of the testimony will be punished by rebellion." Although he humbly asked for advice at first, Zhu Senduo questioned it several times and was also unhappy.

Zhu Sen secretly said, "Such a harsh rule will not pass through the world." But he knew Wu Zilong's personality well, and did not persuade him. Instead, he mentioned another thing that happened in Shuzhou not long ago. A few shameless people did the matter of forcing good men to become prostitutes. The suffering master went to the government to complain. The government was afraid of the backer of the traitor, so he only took a few scapegoats. Seeing that the suffering master was dissatisfied, he put the suffering master on shackles. Instead, he showed his traitors to the public. A disciple of Zhu Sen happened to learn about this and wrote a letter to tell him that the government and the state students were all towards the traitors. The suffering master was helpless. If he dragged on like this, he would be afraid that he would force someone to die. Although Zhu Sen was determined to punish the evil, he was afraid that he would invite people to discuss because of his identity as a relative, so he asked Wu Zilong to intervene.

"Riege!" Sure enough, before Zhu Sen finished speaking, Wu Zilong slapped the table and said angrily, "If such traitors are not severely punished, what is the difference between us and Cai Jing and Li Bangyan?" He stood with his hands behind his back, and his face was a little scary because of his extreme anger: "The most hateful thing is that these people can cover the sky with one hand and make the people in the area not know the law of the King of the Song Dynasty! The one who swept the floor with a gentle politeness and put shackles on the public should be the governor of Shuzhou!" He turned around and stopped, suppressed his anger, and said to Zhu Sen, "Brother Zhu, don't worry, this matter will be fair."

Seeing that Zhu Sen's face was still suspicious, Wu Zilong said again: "The hero violated the ban with martial arts. After the Liao army retreated north, the Ministry of Justice had always wanted to take charge of all the civilian muskets, but this matter was not so easy. Wen Xunzhi asked me for it. If he didn't care about this matter, I wouldn't care about his affairs. If the evil spirits were not eliminated, it would be better for everyone to break the ban!"

"In this way, I will serve the people on behalf of the people," Zhu Sen nodded, bowed seriously and said, "Thank you Brother Wu Gao Yi."
