Chapter 695

Next to the business district of Mojia village, a tall building attracts the attention of people coming and going. This is the location of the village guards of Mojia village. There are nearly 200 village guards in Mojia village, who are responsible for protecting the safety of Mojia village and maintaining the order of Mojia village.

However, next to the village guard, an insignificant building seems a little humble and shabby. However, this is a place that can not be ignored by everyone in Mojia village. This is Han Fuzi's office, the court!

"The court!"

Li Shimin got out of the carriage, looked at these two words and couldn't help reading them.

"Mojia village has made a lot of money! Let Han Fuzi escort it!" Li Shimin has something to eat. I think he went to invite Han Zheng himself. Instead, Han Zheng abandoned senior officials of the Korean hall and went to Mojia village to revive the Legalists.

"That's the honor of Mojia village!" Merton thought deeply.

He hasn't been in Mojia village for a long time, but there is such a good atmosphere in Mojia village. Han Zheng has made great contributions, and Han Zheng has a lot of peaches and plums all over the world. Students from the Imperial College are all over the Korean hall. Even dignitaries don't want to easily provoke him.

"If your majesty is willing to give the legalist family independent jurisdiction, I am willing to return to the court even if I abandon this old bone." Han Zheng's voice came from the outside.

"Now all the county magistrates in the world are fair and honest. One person can do things well. Why should one more person try? In this way, it's just a waste of people's fat and cream." Li Shimin frowned. He has read Merton's article on judicial independence. Although there are many benefits, once judicial independence is implemented, officials must take over the judicial power from the county magistrate, which means that there are at least twice as many officials in the Tang Dynasty, which is a lot of expenses for the court. In addition, the court really does not have so many Legalists to support judicial independence.

"A Confucian scholar who has read four books and five classics all his life can't even memorize the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty. How can he solve the case accurately? How can he be fair and just by relying on one person's will and taking care of human accidents?" Han Zheng retorted.

What Han Zheng said is the truth. I'm afraid few people can memorize the laws and regulations if they really want to assess the county magistrate of Datang. As for unjust, false and wrong cases, they can be found everywhere. He has severely denounced many cases of malicious misinterpretation of the law in the legal column of ink magazine.

Li Shimin said with a wry smile, "I have removed those county magistrates from their posts. They are supervised by Han Fuzi's legal column. I believe I will be fair and honest in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin's words are just avoiding the important and neglecting the important. Once the judiciary is independent, it is a great restriction on the imperial power. Moreover, as an emperor, he himself relies on the power of life and death to deter the courtiers. If he loses the power of life and death, he needs the Legalists to judge and decide life and death, and the imperial power has no deterrent power. These are unacceptable to Li Shimin.

Seeing this, Merton quickly turned off the topic and said, "by the way, Mr. Han, I don't know if the case just now has been found out!"

Han Zheng sighed when he heard the speech: "it's not the gambling house pressing for debts. Gamblers sell their wives and women and force them into the brothel to pay their debts. There is no such blood debt in the gambling house brothel in the world!"

As a legalist who can't rub sand into his eyes, in his opinion, there are too many violations and injustices in every corner of Datang, but he can't do anything. Only Mojia village is a pure land, which makes him calm. That's why he wants to protect Mojia village at all costs. Even in the construction of the rule of law in Mojia village, he has to be more careful than anyone and be fair and just, Only then can there be a fair and just atmosphere in Mojia village.

Li Shimin's face suddenly froze. Han Zheng was outspoken and opened the bloody dark side of the Tang Dynasty, which made his face very embarrassed.

After Li Shimin, there are young Li Zhi and Jinyang. Seeing this, Merton quickly turned off the topic and said, "the Mohist village can be recognized by the people. It all depends on the teacher's impartiality and strictness. The students haven't thanked the teacher yet?"

Han Zheng suddenly showed a trace of favor and said, "Mozi said: give me a peach and return it to Li. The Mojia village has given the Legalists independent jurisdiction, and the Legalists will naturally return a bright future to the Mojia village. By the way, I need to show you the improved village rules according to the cases of the Mojia village in the past year."

Han Zheng said to let Merton have a look, but in fact he took a lot of copies. The village rules that have been published and printed are obviously not just for Merton to see.

Merton wisely handed Li Shimin and the princes one copy each. After a general look, he found that the village rules modified by Li Yi were very similar to the public security management regulations of later generations. They were all trivial and cumbersome. They were places that could not be taken into account by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but they were related to the daily life of the people.

Merton looked through it roughly and said, "generally, the students have no opinions. They can first take it to the villagers' assembly for approval. After a trial period of time, if there is no problem, it can be implemented."

Han Zheng nodded with satisfaction and was extremely satisfied with Merton's strong support for the Legalists.

"Why did you give it to the villagers' assembly for approval? In my opinion, the village rules are reasonable and the best choice to govern the village. Just give orders directly!" Li Chengqian asked puzzled. The imperial court has always made laws and decrees by the imperial court. Where is the reason for folk decisions.

Merton patiently explained: "The purpose of Mohist village rules is to manage Mohist village. After the villagers agree to the village rules, they will punish the villagers who violate the village rules. They will no longer have complaints and facilitate the implementation of the village rules. As for the trial period of time, according to Mohist, nothing in the world is perfect. Time passes and measures are taken according to local conditions. They will be surprised and try After a period of travel, if no problems are found, everyone will be happy. If problems are found, they will be corrected in time, and it is not too late to make up for them. "

"What if we find the problem in the future?" Li Chengqian asked.

Merton said without hesitation: "Mr. Han will be specially responsible for revising the village regulations. When there are regulations that need to be changed, he will review the situation and revise them again and submit them to the villagers' assembly for discussion."

"Isn't that changing orders every day?" Li Chengqian disagreed. Changing government orders often is the biggest taboo for politicians. This is the truth of his years of royal education, and naturally he won't be easily persuaded by Merton.

"Most of the village rules are revised once a year. Most of them just supplement the imperfect village rules or modify the inappropriate laws and regulations. If the trees are pruned in general, they will only thrive, which is beneficial and harmless!" Merton insisted that the Mohist School's adherence to the rules eventually declined and almost disappeared. Now, if we learn from the lessons, we will not repeat the mistakes.

The two argued with each other. On the one hand, they advocated their own views. On the other hand, they also told Li Shimin. If the court argued, it would be general.

One is to strive for stability, the other is to be aggressive, and no one can convince anyone.

Li Shimin nodded irrefutably. Li Chengqian was right in striving for stability. Nowadays, Datang is a vast country, which moves the whole body at once. Naturally, stability is the main focus, while Mojia village is just a village, with flexible structure, timely adjustment and positive progress. Naturally, there is nothing wrong.

When Han Zheng saw Li Shimin and his party leave the court, he couldn't help regretting that Li Shimin hasn't adopted his suggestion.

However, this time he was not disappointed. With the support of Merton, he took the Mojia village as the blueprint of legalism. He wanted to let the world see a different Legalism and a world that people yearn for.

"Rule of law village!"

"Abide by the law, understand the law and use it!"

"It's difficult to find the village guard!"

Li Shimin looked at the streets of Mojia village. There were such slogans promoting the rule of law along the streets. He shook his head and said with a smile: "in my opinion, it won't be long before Mojia village will be renamed Fajia village!"

Merton said with a smile: "Mojia village acts in accordance with the national law and village rules. Everyone can even predict each other's behavior. As long as the other party does not violate the Mojia village rules and national laws, there is no need to worry about being bullied and unfair, while Mojia village will gradually grow. Of course, the Legalists are extremely stubborn and rigid, and will only implement the village rules, so the boy specially uses the villagers' assembly to modify the village Regulations to make up for this defect. "

"In my opinion, it's your boy to save trouble!" Li Shimin glanced at Merton. The boy left the Mojia village for a year, and the Mojia village was not chaotic, but more popular. It's incredible to think about it.

Merton nodded without guilt and said, "this is the greatest advantage of legalism. The main energy of today's Mojia village is to study ink technology, and Legalism creates a stable environment for Mojia village. Abandoning external interference is the most correct choice for Mojia village."

Li Shimin thought carefully and nodded involuntarily. Now Mohism and Legalism can get what they need. Mohism needs the escort of legalism. Legalism needs to verify legalism ideas in Mohism village. Today's prosperity of Mohism village is the best proof of the cooperation between Mohism and Legalism. At least for now, the cooperation between the two countries is extremely successful.

Even the one-sided Li Chengqian could not help nodding thoughtfully.

Merton breathed a sigh of relief. His main purpose today is to show Li Shimin the Mohist village, not the king and Minister playing the right, so he had to guide the topic on the Mohist technology.

"The front is the R & D area of Mojia village, where all ink technology in Mojia village is transformed from imagination into reality. Finally, it is manufactured on a large scale in the industrial zone and sold to all parts of Datang through brick roads for the benefit of the people." Merton solemnly pointed to a fortress like R & D area.

"R & D area!" Li Shimin's eyes lit up. This is the core of Mojia village. Even he has heard of it.

Merton said: "just today, Weichen wants to assess the industry of Mojia village. I believe that the R & D area must have prepared a lot of good things. Please take a step."

"Then I'll be an eye opener!" Li Shimin laughed, and Li Tai also showed an excited look. Since he developed ink technology to verify the formation of rain, he has become more and more interested in ink technology.

"Welcome, young master!" at the door of the R & D area, Lao Zhang, who had been waiting for him, hurried up.

"This is the treasure of our Mojia village. Uncle Zhang is the most skilled craftsman in our Mojia village. He made your iron birch Trojan horse car." Merton said.

"Craftsman Zhang is a good craftsman!"

Li Shimin praised the hard iron birch, which has left the craftsmen of the imperial vehicle supervisor helpless, and Li Shimin was full of praise for its excellent defense.

When Lao Zhang heard the speech, he immediately showed a simple and honest smile and said, "thank you for your praise. The four-wheel carriage given to you is the first generation product. Today, Mojia village has developed the second generation of four-wheel carriage. The small one has been prepared for you!"

"Oh! Then I can't wait!" Li Shimin immediately showed an interested expression.

"Please!" Uncle Zhang extended his hand and invited Li Shimin and his party to enter the R & D area.

As soon as I entered, I saw an exquisite four-wheel carriage in the center. Not only the workmanship was meticulous, but also the shape was very streamlined and amazing. People couldn't put it down at first glance.

"Sure enough, it's still an iron birch!" Li Shimin looked at its smooth lines and familiar texture.

As an emperor, no matter what kind of carriage he is, of course, he should attach importance to safety. Now iron birch has been called his royal material for making cars. He can't put it down because of its ability to defend against swords. What's more, this iron birch four-wheel carriage is carved with all kinds of flower patterns. Obviously, the carving technology of Mojia village has made great progress, Even iron birch can be carved.

Merton came forward and said, "this is the sample of the second generation carriage in Mojia village. It uses the latest rollers and springs to make the shock absorber, which is more labor-saving and stable."

Merton took a large car spring from Uncle Zhang and showed it to the public. The shock absorber used by the first generation of four-wheel carriages is the simplest arc-shaped iron sheet. It uses the principle of iron sheet tension for shock absorption. Although it has shock absorption effect, the shock absorption effect is not good, and it has long been thoroughly studied by other carriages. Imitations are everywhere, and the spring production technology, Now it is a major advantage of Mojia village. The good shock absorption effect immediately widens the advantages of Mojia village and other workshops.

"Spring!" Li Shimin nodded when he learned the principle of spring.

"The second generation of four wheeled carriages is more suitable for long-distance travel than the first generation of four wheeled carriages. Not only is it easy to drive, but also the passengers are also very comfortable and free from bumps." Merton said proudly.

Li Shimin could not help but brighten his eyes. He was not a person who had stayed in the palace for a long time. Now brick roads are popular. With this carriage, his inspection range will certainly be expanded several times. Even if the three vertical and five horizontal plans of the brick road are all laid in the future, it won't take him long to take a four-wheel carriage to inspect the world all the way.

In his heart, he never thought of the idea of touring the world like the Sui Yangdi, but due to his reputation, he has always pressed it at the bottom of his heart. Now the prevalence of brick road laying and four-wheel carriage makes this idea stronger and stronger.

"However, when we are driving on the flat road, how can we bury our heads all the way and miss the scenery along the way." Merton proudly lifted the red cloth covered on the window of the carriage, and was surprised to find that the original window was inlaid with a piece of crystal clear glass, through which we could clearly see the exquisite interior of the carriage.

"Such a big piece of glass!" Li Tai exclaimed.

Mojia village used to throw out small pieces of glass products such as glasses or luminous cups. The biggest one is just a wine bottle to solve thousands of worries. There has never been such a large and flat glass.

Merton said proudly: "It's too cold in winter, so it's necessary to seal the windows when taking a four-wheel carriage. There are even several fires caused by heating in the car. However, the second generation of four-wheel carriage can clearly look at the scenery along the way through the glass from the car, and the car is as warm as ever. Moreover, the light outside the window can shine through the glass, so people can read books and newspapers in the car Not affected. "

"Brother Mo really has a wonderful idea. He even combined glass with carriage. No wonder brother Mo was not in a hurry when the Mojia village was in crisis. He thought he had a plan!" Li Tai said with praise. Once the second generation carriage of Mojia village came out, which workshop could compete with the Mojia village that mastered the secret skills of glass alone.

Merton shook his head and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei thinks highly of Wei Chen. This is not what I thought. The children of the Mohist family brainstormed the way to break the situation."

This time, Merton was not modest. At the beginning of the crisis in the Mojia village, he directly put pressure on the Mojia village. The person in charge was directly removed from his post when the workshop was in recession. This was the result of today. When Merton learned that, he was also surprised. He didn't expect that the children of the Mojia village would create the prototype of cars in future generations.

Almost everyone believes that once the second generation of four wheeled carriage is launched, it will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty, and Mojia village will certainly be more prosperous.
