This article is at the heart of the entire Penal Code, and 'guilt should be punished' is Selena and Cervantes' promise to all their subjects, that with their status as a guarantor, all criminals will deserve their crimes.

Hearing this, some nobles broke out in a cold sweat, some nobles gritted their teeth, and some nobles were already thinking about some dirty things.

None of them dared to attack in the face of this law, because the "Kingdom Law" also clearly stipulates that nobles will also be punished for breaking the law, but there are very few restrictions on nobles in the "Kingdom Law", and basically except for crimes such as "treason" and "against humanity", nobles cannot be punished.

But under this woman's hands, they didn't think they were spared.

Although they always thought that the woman's statement that 'the law can punish the lord' was just words, it also represented her determination.

She dared to say this in front of so many people, then the problem came.

The law can punish the lords, how can these nobles not accept the punishment of the law?

In the face of the nobleman who did not react violently, the maid looked a little disappointed, but she had expected it a long time ago.

Those aristocrats must have secretly done a lot of things that violated the law, but no one punished them, and it was already a well-known unspoken rule that 'the law is only a tool used by the ruling class to rule', not to mention that the nobles always believed that 'a crime that is not exposed to the sun is not a crime'.

Even the old duke did not dare to sanction those nobles easily.

Knowing that they had broken the law, but they could not find any evidence to prove that they had committed such a crime, these nobles were able to survive until now.

"Article 2, there shall be no discrimination against other intelligent beings without reason, intelligent races are born equal, there is no distinction between high and low, and one individual cannot represent the entire race. Violators will be punished according to the severity of the violation, including but not limited to fines, compulsory labor, detention, etc. ”

This second statute made Bishop Pelonandi frown, and then suddenly his eyes widened and he gasped.

Although the Sad Wind Leader is a human settlement, it is not only humans who live here.

Dwarves, gnomes, nezumi, and even wild elves who have become adventurers.

He already understood what the head maid had set up this law for!

Her ambitions were not small, she was for 'racial mixture' - perhaps just to emulate 'Moro' or 'Galton', but a stronger law would make it more popular with other races than those two cities.

Because it is clearly stated in the law of the Sadwind Territory that 'there shall be no unwarranted discrimination against other intelligent races', those who violate this law will also be punished, which is much better than the 'Moro' and 'Gordon', which are still very vague about this kind of thing in the law!

Although the Sorrowful Wind Territory is only a 'small reputation' territory, the maid in charge of the territory is not small, and she is ready to start welcoming foreign merchants before she is 'famous' in human society.

But come to think of it, although as the only 'external window' of the Black Forest on the Mendes continent, the Grim Wind Leader has a great advantage, but not every businessman is willing to take a huge risk to come to the Sad Wind Territory to do business, and more merchants are still waiting and watching, or they don't care at all.

Because the timing is not very good, many merchants have now received the news of the civil war in the Kingdom of Kolo, unless it is a chamber of commerce and caravans that have established purchase channels, there will be fewer and fewer merchants who come to do business with the Sad Wind Leader, and after the civil war is over, the Sad Wind Leader may have declined.

The current Grief Leader is not yet self-sufficient, and the head maid is also carrying out drastic reforms to this territory, just like the 'R&D Zone' they have seen before, there should be a lot of R&D plans that require a lot of investment, if the capital chain is broken, then it will cause a chain reaction, and the Grief Wind Leader will soon decline, and it may even be even more decaying than the Grief Wind Leader before the maid took over.

But for some reason, Bishop Pelonandi had an inexplicable panic, feeling as if he was missing something.

"Article 3: No one shall engage in theft, and once discovered, he or she will be sentenced to penalties including but not limited to fines, compulsory labor, detention, etc., depending on the severity of the punishment. ”

"Article 4: Except for police officers and related personnel with official arrest warrants, no person or organization may unlawfully imprison or kidnap another person, otherwise the kidnapper will be sentenced to the crime of 'kidnapping', and depending on the seriousness, the kidnapper will be sentenced to punishment including but not limited to detention or criminal punishment. ”

"Article 5: No person or organization may wantonly take the lives of others in the Territory of Grief, and if there is a charge of homicide, a verdict shall be made according to the seriousness. The crime of homicide is divided into manslaughter and intentional homicide, and after investigation, the penalty for manslaughter is 3 to 20 years' imprisonment, and for intentional homicide, it is punishable by 15 to 30 years' imprisonment, or life imprisonment, or the death penalty, depending on the offender's modus operandi. ”

Listening to these regulations, Bishop Pelonandi fell into deep thought again.

In his opinion, the maid was not too general, but too detailed!

With the exception of scholars and judges who studied the law, even the nobles who presided over the court could not have much knowledge of the law, and when they held court hearings, they would keep a 'new' copy of the Law of the Kingdom with them, even though they would not read it.

What is she trying to do? Listening to these streamlined legal provisions, the more Bishop Pelonandi thought about it, the more panicked she became.

If, just if!

If these people understand the terms of the law, then it will be much more difficult for the judge to make some small moves in the courtroom, and the day when the judge can acquit the offender by bribing a judge may be eradicated in the sad wind.

When the aristocracy can no longer do whatever they want, then what do they have on their hands?

The nobility can no longer manipulate everything in secret, the law will be laid out in the light, and when these adventurers and merchants, even those of them from the priesthood of Lolandal, return, the reputation of the Sadwind Leader will spread.

It may be an infamy among the nobility, but the reputation of 'the place where order will live forever' will also become a prefix for the Sadwind Lord.

It is foreseeable that the head maid will not violate the laws she has made, but those nobles are really restricted, which is weakening them in disguise...... No, it's in disguise weakening the 'aristocracy' group!

If there is no power to do whatever they want, then the only thing left of the nobles is probably their identity and face.

In addition to the money she owns, it is possible that even the private army will be banned, and according to the current trend, it seems that the head maid obviously wants to reclaim all the power of the nobles.

"Article 8: No person or organization may arbitrarily seize the private property of others, and unless they have official documents, the offender who obtains illegal property by means of deception, robbery, etc., will be sentenced to punishments including but not limited to fines, compulsory labor, detention, or fixed-term imprisonment, life imprisonment, or even the death penalty!"

"Supplementary Regulations: Any contract or contract signed under official witness will be protected by the official, and the regulations agreed upon by both parties in the contract and contract must be fulfilled, otherwise they will be held accountable by the official authorities of the Sad Wind. ”

Here it is!

Hearing this, the merchants and adventurers all took a deep breath, and then they all smiled, and their hearts could finally let go.

With the exception of the Moore Commonwealth, few countries would enshrine this in law, but they had confidence in the head maid of the Grim Wind.

And now the prosperity of the Sad Wind Leader and Wende City is just a façade, and it is supported by commerce.

There were some worries at first, but now, they can finally rest assured.

They don't care about the other legal provisions, that's all they care about.

The maid's index finger stopped under the 'ninth', and she glanced at the black dragon, and then both smiled meaningfully.

"Article 9, war crimes!"
