Infinite Streamer

"I am Liu Ji," a deep voice sounded, "Who the hell are you? How dare you possess me?"

"My name is Liu Yuan, I'm not a ghost! I really can't explain your question, but listen to me, I came from 2200 years ago. I drank too much last night, and I don't know how I woke up and ended up here."

"Which season is Liu Ji?"

"Season of Seasons."

The name Liu Ji sounded familiar. Could it be the ancestor Liu Bang? So Liu Yuan asked, "Is this Pei County? Are you the third child in your family? Is your eldest brother Liu Bo? Is your second brother Liu Zhong? Is there a younger brother Liu Jiao? Is your mother Wang's maiden name Hanshi? Are you the head of Sishui Pavilion?"

The deep voice said: "How do you know all my family members? And you still say you are not a ghost? I am not the head of the pavilion! It is my wish, not my inability" (It means how do you know all my family members? And you still say you are not a ghost? I am not the head of the pavilion, but it is my wish to be the head of the pavilion. It is not a problem of lack of opportunity, not of ability. The following text will not be described in classical Chinese!)

Liu Yuan said, "Oh, I am indeed not a ghost. I am just a descendant of the Liu family and I happen to know more about the Liu family's ancestors, so I am familiar with them. Do you also have a name called Liu Bang?"

A deep voice said, "Bang is a good name. I hope I can have my own fiefdom to fulfill my life's ambition! To build a country and ensure its security, to help the world and the people! Changing the name to Liu Bang is indeed much more majestic! I will listen to you, and from now on I, Liu Ji, will change my name to Liu Bang! Hahaha!" "Liu Yuan, thank you so much!"

A hearty and generous aura came over me. As expected of the Liu family ancestor, he was no longer bound by the views of ghosts and gods.

Liu Yuan couldn't help but imagine, is my mission: to help Liu Ji, a civilian in his thirties who is lazy, has accomplished nothing and has nothing, to become Liu Bang, unify the world, and become the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty?

Is this too difficult? But in history, Liu Bang was the first emperor of the Han Dynasty!

Liu Yuan couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Let's take it one step at a time! I can only do my best, that's all!"

After that, the two ideas of Liu Yuan and Liu Ji kept communicating in Liu Ji's mind, colliding with countless sparks. When talking about how the First Emperor Ying Zheng unified the writing system, the wheel gauge, and the weights and measures to consolidate his rule, attacked the Xiongnu in the north, conquered the Baiyue in the south, and confiscated weapons from the people and cast them into twelve bronze men, and implemented the county system, which was a historical precedent and still applicable more than two thousand years later, both of them could not help but admire it.

At the same time, the two schools of thought were indignant about the First Emperor Ying Zheng's burning of books and burying of scholars alive, levying heavy taxes and extreme cruelty, and the system of collective responsibility set up against the remnants of the six kingdoms to prevent collusion, which led to the unnecessary deaths of a large number of people.

Liu Yuan sighed and said, "When a country prospers, the people suffer; when a country perishes, the people suffer even more!" Liu Bang agreed with this statement very much.

"Liu Yuan, what do you do? You are very knowledgeable!"

"From a soldier to a lawyer (a profession that only existed in the Song Dynasty), do you understand? It means helping the people to defend their rights and fight lawsuits. Of course, this includes the rich and powerful, but I prefer to defend, represent, and speak for those who have committed crimes and may lose their lives and freedom! That is, to help them speak for their rights, save their lives from being executed, or to get a lighter punishment."

"I don't understand. Is speaking for others a job? Do you have to pay for it? Shouldn't people who commit crimes be punished? Shouldn't murderers pay with their lives?"

"Of course, if we don't get paid, we'll have nothing to eat. We all need to eat. No matter what kind of work it is, it's just a different division of labor, all for the purpose of maintaining the normal operation of this social order."

"People who have committed crimes should be punished, but it is possible that they did not commit the crime themselves, or that the crime was caused by their instructions. What we lawyers have to do is to find out the truth so that those who have not actually committed the crime will not be punished. Even if they have committed a crime, we should try to get a lighter punishment according to the specific circumstances."

"Are you sure that all the people executed in the government office deserve to die? Are there no people who died unjustly or died for some reason? Do those who killed people definitely deserve to die?"

"If the person killed is a bad person who has done evil, or is currently doing evil, or even a relatively minor crime committed in order to protect certain legitimate interests, must he be put to death or serve a long period of imprisonment and hard labor?"

“……”Liu Bang fell into deep thought and remained speechless for a long time.

Liu Yuan murmured to himself: "Everyone has a dream in their heart. Your dream is to become the king of a country, and my dream is to return to the real world and become the lawyer I always dream of!"

Liu Yuan's heart was also extremely determined at this moment. No matter how difficult the task given by the system was, he would overcome all difficulties and return to the real world.
