"In fact, the rest of them envy Legalists," said Yan Yukong.

Everyone nodded.

After all the people talked for a while, Fang Yun continued, "I want to say that everyone knows this truth, but they all want to wait for others to say it, so that they wait and wait endlessly. Today, I will say this truth. From now on, you don't have to worry about being attacked by a crowd and let them transport it to us."

Many people smile with kindness.

Fangyun Road: "We can simply think that we are all human beings. People must have selfishness, different people must have different life concepts, different people have different views on the world, and different people have different views on judging everything. Even saints have their own aspirations. Therefore, there is no absolutely fair and fair law in this world, even if The French won't object, will they? "

It is common sense that millions of people nod their heads together.

Fangyun Road: "Therefore, there are two extremes in the formulation of laws, or in any government affairs, public and private. However, public sounds good, but it may not be perfect. Because many selfless situations will damage individuals. For example, in the distribution of food in primitive society, for the development of ethnic groups, we should give more food to young people and less food to old and young people "This is good for the whole ethnic group, but it can't be said to be good for the vulnerable old and young people. We can't say that this food distribution is wrong, we can only say that this method is not perfect."

"Is there a perfect law? It may exist, but we won't discuss it, because since it is perfect, there is no value to discuss. Is there a perfect legal family? It may exist, but most of them are not. Therefore, we imperfect people pick out imperfect laws and divide them into two categories, one is a more just law and the other is a more unjust law 。”

"Some people will wonder why the law is unjust? We are human beings, not perfect saints, so we will eventually make some incorrect decisions, or make unjust laws for unjust reasons."

"Justice and injustice are called in a special way. As I said before, the law is deeply influenced by morality, so we, even most people, often judge whether the law is just through moral standards. If a law is closer to the moral standards of the public, it is more just in the eyes of most people. Therefore, we think it is good, It can be called good law. "

"What is an unjust law? According to the previous words, it is a law far away from the public moral standards."

"Let's take a very simple example. In some ancient laws, all servants belong to the master of the house. The master of the house can kill them regardless. In our present view, this kind of law violates morality, is bad, bad and unjust. We can call it evil law."

Many people are interested in hearing this for the first time.

On the contrary, all the flow of Legalists show disgust. In their hearts, the standard formulated by the semi saint of Legalists is correct. Any statement that is not the great Confucian and semi saint of Legalists is crooked reasoning, heresy, backwardness and ignorance.

They most hated the officials of the mixed family ritual hall for treating the French family with this attitude, but they treated Fang Yun with the same attitude.

Fang Yun continued: "In fact, with different legal standards, the meaning of good law and evil law is also different. Now we only talk about it according to the public standards of Shengyuan continent. We said who should formulate the law before. The answer has been given. Because scholars are better, it should be decided by scholars, especially Legalists who focus on law. However, because Legalists are a minority after all, we We should also consider more Terrans, so in fact, the laws of Terrans are formulated jointly by the whole Terran. However, scholars have more right to speak than non readers. At least we have reached a consensus here. "

Fang Yun laughed, and the people at the meeting also laughed.

Because there are all scholars here, no one will throw away their power.

After Fang Yun finished laughing, his face quickly turned cold and said, "why didn't anyone try to oppose me just now?"

Many people's smiles were frozen on their faces, and the atmosphere of the meeting suddenly fell to the freezing point.

Some scholars with low literary level clattered in their hearts and gave birth to a trace of fear. After all, they were talking about an empty saint and the first person under half saint.

Fang Yun's expression eased slowly and said: "Your performance just now proves that everyone has selfishness. Everyone here believes that since we become scholars, we naturally master power and have privileges different from non scholars. No one will think it wrong. In fact, if we look at the world, we will find a truth, whether it is human race, demon barbarian or different Race, aquarium or birds and animals, flowers, birds, fish and insects are all selfish. Except for a few ancient Mohist families, even Confucianism, they have to distinguish between far and near. This is human nature and the instinct of all living creatures. "

Many people fail to understand the purpose of Fang Yun's sudden remark.

"Well, in the process of making laws, law makers often affect the laws because of this selfish instinct. I study the laws these days and find that there is a very interesting trend in the laws of the Terran in recent years. When the law maker is a monarch, all officials who greedy for money and money are punished very heavily, and even are prone to death. But with Scholars gradually gained more power and began to influence the law. They were suspected of embezzling money, and the punishment was decreasing. "

"At least so far, most Legalists' punishment is to punish criminals. However, why is the current sentencing reduced for the same crime? It has been said that taking people's lives is the worst crime, otherwise as long as they don't kill people, they shouldn't be sentenced to death. However, those officials who greedy for money will inevitably lead to the destruction of some people and the poverty of more people So as to reduce their life expectancy. The people they kill, the lives they reduce, and the means they use are far more vicious than a murderer. Their damage to society is far greater than that of murderers. Why is the punishment for them often very low? "

"Even, we all know that it is never the main reason why real middle-level and high-level officials are sentenced for greedy swallowing money. You will feel that I am criticizing them. No, I just use this bloody fact to tell you that people who can influence the law will certainly try to use the law to protect themselves, and then use the law to seek benefits for themselves."

"Many scholars present are not officials and seem unable to affect the law, but in fact, as a huge group, the moral standards of the public can still affect the law to a considerable extent. However, there are different groups in the world. Are the moral levels of the public of different groups close? Not so!"

In order to avoid it to a certain extent, some words in this book may be different from idioms, such as greedy swallowing, such as Hualou. This is also helpless. Please understand.
