Chapter 207 What does it mean to integrate science and morality? How can it be integrated?
Anyone who has heard of Xiao Shibaba knows about the revenge that Yongzheng took against his dear uncle Alinga and Mingzhu's son Kuixu.
Even if someone dies, you have to change the tombstone.
They would also chop off the man's son and enslave the rest of the people into the Xinzheku.
Including his own aunt.
Typical, if you don't play with me, I will make you have no fun at all!
But when Yinzhen, who was bent on currying favor with his fourth brother, complained about him for the first time, how could Kangxi and his son not be overjoyed?
I really want to applaud the little guy and encourage him to say more if he can speak.
The Fourth Prince held his forehead with his hand, somewhat doubting that his mother tongue was not Manchu, but speechless.
Seeing him like this, Yinzhen thought that his fourth brother had just recovered from a serious illness and was weak. He quickly trotted over to him and acted as a human armrest: "Fourth brother, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell again?"
"Help your brother quickly, be careful not to fall down again if you are too weak."
After making sure that his dear fourth brother had stood firmly, he frowned and looked at his father, the emperor: "Those thieves are really abominable. They made my fourth brother so weak and haggard. Khan Ama must punish them severely to serve as a warning to others."
When this murderous tone came out, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.
Kangxi and the other princes were all sour: Eighteenth Prince really protects Fourth Prince! His fourth brother just got malaria, but the little guy was so angry that he wanted to kill.
Seeing that the eyes of his father and his brothers were gradually gloomy, the fourth prince quickly said, "Don't worry, eighteenth brother, fourth brother is fine, don't..."
Yinzhen shook his head and said seriously: "I know that you, my fourth brother, are the most kind-hearted and don't want to see many officials suffer because of this. But the country has its own laws and the family has its own rules. We can't forget the laws of the court because of a moment of pity. But..."
The little guy changed the subject: "Although some people have committed crimes so blatant that even the extermination of their entire clan is not enough to atone for their crimes, I am a kind-hearted little prince. I believe that the crimes of my wife and children should not be punished."
"If possible, please show some mercy to the Khan Ama and only pursue the evildoers. We will also pursue those who rely on the power of the evildoers to run rampant in the village and break the law."
"As for those who enforce the law impartially and do not go along with the evildoers, but who are unlucky enough to live in the same family and clan as them, let them go."
"After their property was confiscated, it would be hard for them, as commoners, to cause any trouble."
After saying this, he stared at Kangxi with his big eyes without blinking.
Full of desire inside.
My mind was beating like a drum, and I was struggling: [This... there is no such rule in the Qing Dynasty. I don’t think Kangxi will agree, right? But...]
[But he once set his life goal as being the most benevolent emperor in history, so he shouldn’t mind being a little more lenient?]
Having been backstabbed so many times, Kangxi was almost PTSD at the four words "Emperor Ren".
As soon as he heard it, his brows were tightly furrowed.
Seeing him like this, Yinzhen subconsciously thought that the plan would not work. He could not help but sigh in his heart: "Alas, those daring and evil people, even if they are cut into pieces, it is difficult to relieve the hatred in my heart. But what is the fault of their wives and daughters? Maybe they have never lived a good life, but they have to die for the sake of integrity. It's too tragic and inhumane. 】
The Fourth Prince paused with his hand on his forehead, and when he looked at his Eighteenth Brother again, his eyes were even warmer.
Then, the 'victim' straightened his robe and knelt down slowly: "It's rare that my eighteenth brother has such a kind heart at such a young age, Khan Ama will help him!"
"After all, the whole world belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects. The families of those criminals are also your subjects, Khan Ama. We cannot let many innocent people die in vain because of one or two evildoers."
As soon as these words were spoken, many censors disagreed.
The families of the convicted officials took advantage of the fact that the officials wore gold and silver and enjoyed a comfortable life, thinking they were superior to others in every way.
Now that the crimes of the officials have been exposed, it is natural that their families should be crushed into dust.
How can there be any such thing as innocence?
That's it!
Moreover, the judgments related to these crimes are all written in the Qing Dynasty laws. They are the guidelines of the country's laws and regulations. How can they be easily abolished?
When this height was mentioned, naturally many ministers came out to agree.
Although the Eighteenth Prince has a kind heart, this example should not be set lightly.
Otherwise it will happen again and again.
If this continues and becomes the norm, the law will no longer exist.
If it weren't for the fact that Kangxi had always been extremely fond of Yinzhen from the autumn of the 47th year to now, even more than the crown prince back then, none of the ministers dared to point their spearheads at him easily, and now the entire court would have risen up in a wave of anti-eighteenth.
Even this is enough to surprise me: [Isn’t it said that the censors in the Qing Dynasty had the lowest status, and after the integration of the imperial court and the imperial court during the Yongzheng period, the censors became almost meaningless? Looking at these people, they seem quite active!]
Kangxi:? ? ?
Wait a minute, kid, explain to me in detail what the integration of science and Taoism means and how it works.
Isn't it what I thought?
But Yinxuan is only concerned about his fourth brother now, and has no interest in letting his imagination run wild.
Seeing that the civil and military officials were beginning to persuade his fourth brother to spoil his younger brother, he suggested that he should not dote on his younger brother so much.
He quickly spoke with confused eyes: "Fourth brother bravely gave advice based on the great plan of national development, how come it was regarded as a selfish act by the adults?"
"I never said that the majesty of national laws does not need to be maintained, but specific issues need to be analyzed specifically!"
"Take this case as an example. Hundreds of officials were involved in the case, which itself involves hundreds of lives. If you continue to carry out mass injustice as you said, how many innocent people will die in vain? Have you ever thought about it?"
But some officials say that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer.
Their families are innocent, but aren't those exploited people, the wronged officials, and even the Fourth Prince who was almost killed innocent as well?
Yinzhen wanted to hold his waist and argue, but the Fourth Prince stopped him with a smile: "I didn't say there would be no punishment, but we can change the method. For example, those who should be castrated or sent to the Jiaofang according to the law can be changed to work in the factories run by the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
From being a pampered lady, young master, or young master to being a laborer, this punishment can’t be considered light, right?
But no matter how serious the situation is, as long as there is hope and reputation, there is the courage to live.
This would reduce the number of murders and bring more revenue to the national treasury.
and……
The fourth prince chuckled. Their grandfathers had such lofty goals. There would be many places that would need people, such as future expeditions, military supplies, and final management.
We don’t even have enough time for active development, how can we take the initiative to reduce staff?
But even so, there were some conservative ministers who tried to oppose.
But just as he opened his mouth, he was blocked by the Eighteenth Prince: "I advise you to be careful with your words! After all, if you walk on the shore often, you will get your feet wet. Galin is the fourth-generation grandson of He Heli, one of the Five Founding Ministers. He can be considered a cousin of Khan Ama, and my third and ninth brothers are cousins. The strong wind knocked down the phoenix tree, isn't it just a matter of time?"
"You are all so righteous now, aren't you afraid that you will be convicted and thrown into prison one day, and your wives, concubines and children will face such a predicament?"
