Chapter 213: Troublemaking
Chen Mu was very suspicious that this Yang Gao was not a fortune teller at all.
So he asked Zou Yuanbiao to release Yang Gao, and finally whipped forty according to the price hike, but told him that he could no longer bewitch the public, otherwise he would be beheaded next time, and he was not allowed to leave Chang Sheng.
He skillfully used words, if he died this year, Chen Mu would let the other people go, if it wasn't for the fourth of this year, let Chen Mu dispose of it...... Putting aside the fact that he was supposed to let Chen Mu deal with it, no matter which result it is, Yang Gao is actually quite profitable.
Chen Mu thinks he has good reverse thinking.
"Why did the marshal let him go?"
Zhao Shizhen was puzzled by this matter, to put it bluntly, even if the law is complete, it is difficult to sit strictly in such an ambiguous situation, and the crime of creating demon books and fallacies on the Ming Law is actually more oriented to 'teaching' rather than 'speech', and the severe punishment in the early years was to stop the cult organizations that had been surging since the end of the Yuan Dynasty from causing damage to society, not to deal with charlatans like Yang Gao.
Although in Chen Mu's previous world timeline, people held a positive meaning for the word 'legal system' and a derogatory meaning for the word 'rule of man', but in fact, Chen Mu believes that this is not a simple matter that can explain the problem.
The rule of law and the rule of man are one thing, and the legal system is in motion, constantly moving forward to meet the needs of society to achieve strict and equal implementation and observance; Confucian rule of man pays more attention to the particularity of each person as an independent individual, and emphasizes that the monarch, law enforcers, and supervisors are in the moral level of 'benevolence', and the law is indispensable, but the ruler is upright, and if he does not order, he will do it, and if he is not right, he will not obey the order.
In Chen Mu's era, a truly sound legal system, the legal system, the rule of man, the etiquette system, and the moral government are all indispensable.
Because before the law enforcer becomes a robot, no matter how sound the legal system is, the executor is still a human being, and if he is a human being, he will be virtuous and mediocre, and he will have seven emotions and six desires and positions.
The failure of the rule of man and the administration of ethics will lead to a huge moral decline in society, which will inevitably lead to the failure of the legal system.
Is it fair to sentence Yang Gao to beheading for the crime of making demon books and fallacies? Can he be whipped forty for confusing the market and can he achieve Chen Mu's idea?
Zhao Shizhen pursed his lips, he didn't have these things in his head, he just raised his two fingers hatefully and said: "The student heard Zou Zhixian say that this person had a scar on his buttocks when he was whipped, and he was punished for this incident in China when he wanted to come over, and now he went to Asia to make trouble." ”
"The marshal also allowed him to get back the 80,000 Tongbao, it's too cheap for him."
Zou Yuanbiao did not deduct the 80,000 Tongbao in the end, but only deducted the hundreds of stone old grain that Yang Gaotun had in the warehouse, saving him from endangering the society again.
Chen Mu smiled, looked up at the window, and said with emotion: "He is a charlatan, but he is very smart and a talent, but he has taken the wrong path, I want to see what he will do next, if there is not much risk." ”
He retracted his gaze and said to Zhao Shizhen: "How about recruiting him as a staff member?" ”
Chen Mu believed that Yang Gao knew some divination techniques, but unlike the pretending ghosts about religion or metaphysics in his head, although he could indeed pretend to be ghosts, Chen Mu preferred to believe that it was an ancient data discipline.
King Wen made "Zhou Yi", at first it was just to provide the ancient ancestors with a means to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, in popular words, "Zhou Yi" is very materialistic, if you really want to say idealism, there is only "wish the gentleman to be like a dragon" This point is more idealistic.
You can even imagine that King Wen is talking to people.
For example, the most widely known first hexagram in "Zhou Yi", the Qiangua.
On the ninth day of the first month, don't use the hidden dragon.
In the new environment, don't exert your power and behave with your tail between your legs.
Ninety-three, the gentleman is dry all day long, and he is not to blame.
It is very safe and harmless to be conscientious all day long, even at night.
Ninety-four, or jumping in the abyss, no blame.
Career ups and downs, don't worry, it's not a bad thing.
Ninety-five, the flying dragon is in the sky, and it is beneficial to see the adult.
It's all to the level of five, which means that you have made some achievements of your own, like a dragon flying in the sky, and you want to behave like a big person.
On the ninth, Kang Long has regrets.
Since you are a big person, don't act too arrogant, otherwise danger is approaching, be vigilant and don't let anything remorse happen.
This is a set of methodologies that guide the ancestors to do things.
It is not believable to believe the far-fetched theory of gods and ghosts, Chen Mu is more willing to summarize and develop a new practical philosophy from the useful summaries of feng shui and divination derived from it, and those that are not suitable for the development of the times should be discarded, rather than clinging to the incomplete.
Just as Deng Zilong said to Chen Mu, feng shui likes to whirl and avoid rushing straight, the gate goes straight to the road and calls an arrow through the heart, the ancients lived in the fields and did not live in the town, and there were many mobile people on the wilderness and mountain roads.
This is also true after the birth of the automobile, and the probability of seeing a car accident is naturally much higher in the place where the door is directly facing the main road than in other places.
In the courtyard, feng shui taboos door-to-door, saying that it is mouth-to-mouth for scolding, it is easy to have a lot of right and wrong, and the two relatives can see what you are doing at a glance, and it is naturally easy to have a tongue.
But Chen Mu also had some reservations about Deng Zilong's words, he thought that the so-called resolution was too, at most it was to add a little psychological comfort to people who had already committed taboos.
Would it be nice to hang a golden blessing on the door? With that money, it is better to tear down the two walls and rebuild them, and the two doors are not opposed.
"What to recruit him for, isn't that a charlatan, handsome, you see that he can tell fortunes, look at faces, look at the house, and finally pour some crooked wealth."
Zhao Shizhen said a very painful sentence, raised three fingers and waved at Chen Mu: "He knows everything, but he is still a poor ghost, and he would rather pit half of the people who win to make the price of food rise, and in the end he earned thirty taels, but he received forty sticks." ”
Saying that, the mechanics unit shook his head: "I don't understand anything, and I'm still better off than him." ”
Chen Mu pointed his finger at the old god: "One life, two luck, three feng shui, four accumulations of yin virtue and five reading, if you follow Chen, you are lucky, you know." ”
"Don't you think this Yang Gao was born specifically to make trouble?"
As soon as Zhao Shizhen heard this, he even lost the meaning of refuting Chen Mu's previous words, and said with wide eyes: "The marshal knows that he is a troublemaker, and he still wants to recruit him into the shogunate?" ”
"The pattern is magnified a little, the North and South Lecture Martial Arts Hall and the North and South Two Oceans train countless dangerous people every year, these dangerous people are used by the Ming Dynasty, but they can make the people of the Ming Dynasty safer; A person like Yang Gao will be executed at home, but it will be different abroad, don't you find that he is trying to influence the market price? ”
"Having the knowledge of arithmetic and ancient books allows him to know people's hearts, what people like to hear, and what they will make others think after they say something."
Chen Mu said firmly: "I even suspect that this Yang Gao had inquired about Chen's mind in various places before he got on the boat of Dongdu, and knew that I didn't respect gods and Buddhas and didn't believe in ghosts and gods, so I said those very different words - smart, destructive, good at words, a little understanding of economics, and it seems that he just wants to make money." ”
"It's a scourge for such a person to keep, and it's a scourge to take it out, but to let him go out and carry out a controllable scourge, doesn't it make the situation favorable to us?"
