Chapter 139: The people do not report, the officials do not investigate
[Invite [Hu Ping'an] to join the team. ]
[Data loading...]
【Invitation successful.】
In the distance, a county called Qingshan has recently been facing a flood problem that could come at any time.
In the house of a country gentleman which is said to have been in this area since the previous dynasty, a young man sat at a desk, listening to the continuous sound of rain outside the window, biting the tip of a pen and thinking about something with a distressed look on his face.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a ding sound in his ear.
The young man was slightly stunned. The voice appeared suddenly, but it seemed to carry some kind of mysterious rhythm. It lingered in his mind, with a strong presence, and it was impossible to regard it as an illusion.
"Varied……"
【Hu Pingan has joined the team. 】
Wang Xuan: [Wow.]
Li Qingyi: [Wow.]
Li Zhu: […Wow?]
Three voices suddenly appeared in my mind. One of them sounded very babyish, and it was obviously from a young child.
The other two were a man and a woman, who also sounded very young, probably teenagers, but I didn't know more.
However, strangely, Hu Pingan's mind automatically popped up the names of the people corresponding to each voice. It was strange, even a little absurd, but the first thing he thought of was: [What is this? Is it a red envelope group?]
Li Qingyi: [……]
Li Zhu: [Red envelope group? No, we can’t send red envelopes here.]
Wang Xuan: [Puff.]
Afterwards, with Wang Xuan's enthusiastic and proactive explanation, and Li Qingyi's occasional additional explanations, Hu Ping'an finally understood the current situation.
Oh, no wonder he felt that the names that popped up in his mind were inexplicably familiar. It turned out that they were his teachers and classmates in his previous life.
Oh, it turns out that he didn't travel through time alone, but with a group of his classmates and teachers. However, everyone did not travel through time to the same place, and judging from their ages, the time of travel was also different. For the time being, no one knows what the pattern is.
Oh, it turns out that he is about to face death...
Wait, is there something wrong with this last piece of news?
Hu Pingan: [I don't think I've done anything to offend anyone, right? Why do you want to kill me?]
Before Li Qingyi could say anything, Wang Xuan started talking a lot, introducing Yang Jianrang and the Yang family to Hu Ping'an in a simple and clear manner.
At the end, Wang Xuan added: [I just remembered that Yang Jianrang was the villain in my farming novel. Because I used other names to replace him when I wrote it, and rarely mentioned his real name, so I didn’t remember this person at first.]
Hu Pingan: [… Farming story? Villain?]
Li Qingyi: [The world we traveled through was derived from a novel, and it seemed to be derived from the novels written by Wang Xuan.]
Li Zhu: [You are the author, but you forgot the name of the villain? ]
Wang Xuan said confidently: [Do you know how many novels I have written? Not to mention the villains, I can't even remember the names of all the protagonists. It's good enough if I can remember the general plot! ]
In fact, she can still remember the plot outline, but Wang Xuan is not a patient with hyperthymesia who has a photographic memory. As a diligent author who writes at least three books a year, the first thing she forgets about each book is probably the name of the character in the novel.
Otherwise, Wang Xuan would not have finally confirmed after arriving in Beijing that the essence of this world was actually in her own novel.
Wang Xuan: [I don’t remember the general content of the farming novel very clearly, but the main plot is about some family matters, the villain is defeated in the end, and the protagonist lives a peaceful and happy life.]
Wang Xuan: [But this is a novel I just finished before I traveled through time, so congratulations, Mr. Hu, I remember the content of this novel the most.]
Li Zhu muttered: [Is this good news? You said he was the villain, right? Hu Pingan won't become cannon fodder, right? ]
Hu Pingan: […So, just because they want to steal my credit, they want to kill me? Just for this reason?]
Wang Xuan: [Yes.]
Li Qingyi: [Yes.]
Li Zhu: [Yes.]
Hu Pingan was silent for a moment, wondering: [Why do I feel like you guys don't seem very surprised? This is obviously wrong, this is too careless about human life. ]
Li Qingyi sighed in her cute little baby voice, which made Hu Ping'an feel uncomfortable. He knew rationally that this was the teacher, but this baby-like voice made it difficult for people to feel involved.
Fortunately, Li Qingyi has not asked her students to continue to respect their teachers. Anyway, she will not give up on her students easily. As for the students' own thoughts... well, it is not very important.
Li Qingyi: [This is the characteristic of this era, Hu Pingan. You said before that you had a puncture wound, right? You have already reached adulthood this year, don’t you realize the difference between here and the present? ]
In modern times, we talk about human rights and laws. In this era, if you meet a master who will not easily beat or scold his servants, you will be praised for being kind and generous.
But for people like Yang Jianrang, human life has never been valuable.
Of course, for this kind of mentality, when it is their turn to become that worthless life, the mockery of fate will teach them a lesson.
This phenomenon is even more obvious in the capital city where many nobles gather.
However, the current emperor sitting on the throne is not a tyrannical person, and the emperor and the crown prince are both intentionally maintaining the dignity and authority of the Daning Code. They rarely act on emotion, and have always acted in accordance with the laws so far. Naturally, those people in the capital will understand.
After all, the Daning Law stipulates that the master has the power to chastise and punish the servant, but it is a crime for the master to kill the servant.
If the servant committed a serious crime, the master could escort the servant to the government, and the government would decide how to execute him and whether to carry out the death penalty.
Of course, in Daning, no matter who the person is, the final decision on the death penalty lies in the hands of the emperor.
In other words, according to the Daning Law, except for the emperor on the throne, no one else, whether it is your master, your parents, your boss, or other privileged classes such as princes and princesses, has the power to kill you.
However, if the master kills the servant, he is guilty, but he will not be asked to pay for the servant's life. Unless the other party kills too many servants at once, all the servants in the mansion will be killed, then this is not just a matter of status.
The same applies to other cases.
To put it bluntly, the Daning Law guarantees a certain degree of fairness, but it still has limitations and it still protects the rights and interests of some privileged classes.
Similarly, if no one reports it to the authorities, then generally speaking, the government will not be so idle as to make trouble for people in such matters.
This is what is called "if the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate it."
