Chapter 752 Extralegal Jurisdiction? dream!

"Water area governance?"

Sitting in the flower hall of Duke Anguo's mansion, Chen Luo frowned while listening to Hai Rui's report.

"What the **** is this? Why don't you know the true face as a biased face?"

Hai Rui also had a sad face, and explained: "Back to the Zhu Kingdom, the lower officials didn't know about the governance of the waters. After the teacher's guidance, they found the root cause in the records of the Spring and Autumn Hall."

"This statement comes from "The Rivers and Rivers of the World" in the Ren Dynasty."

Chen Luo was taken aback, Ren Chao?

That's long enough.

Hai Rui, as the seed of a famous minister, naturally would not miss anything. He had already prepared all the materials when he came to report the matter to Chen Luo.

Hai Rui handed Chen Luo a jade slip and said, "This is the original text of "The Rivers and Rivers of the World" that I found in the Spring and Autumn Hall. Zhu Guo should have a look."

Chen Luo took the jade slip, swept away his consciousness, and his face immediately became gloomy.

"The world is not the world of the human race. The human race lives in it temporarily. It should be thought of good, not evil. Today, there are rivers, rivers, lakes, and seas in the world. Heavenly creations are naturally generated, and they are not habitable by humans. Show me the way of tolerance of the human race, and make good friends sincerely."

"The human race lives on land, and the aquatic race lives on water, why? The way of heaven is perpetual, and this is an act in accordance with the sky."

"The water area is not beneficial to our human race, but it can be used as a habitat for the aquatic race. Why should we cherish it?"

"Besides, Shenzhou has initially decided that the demon clan will go south, and there may be a day of counterattack. The river network in Shenzhou is crisscrossed, and the water tribe is used as a barrier for our human race to keep away the demon race. Doesn't it mean that our human race has a million more troops?"

"Measure the waters of China and form an alliance with the water tribe."

"This is a strategy that is beneficial but not harmful. I beg you to think carefully."

"Hmph!" Chen Luo snorted coldly, and put down the jade slip.

What a "world is not the world of the human race, the human race lives here temporarily!"

What a "measuring the waters of China, forming an alliance of water tribes"!

What a well-known speech skill, this kind of tone made Chen Luo sick after ten thousand years.

Could it be that the Divine Continent was directly given to the human race by the Dao of Heaven?

This is what the ancestors of the human race did with rags, inch by inch!

An inch of rivers and mountains and an inch of blood, life and death meet each other.

The mountain is sad and the heroic spirit is crying at night, and the water is stained with blue blood and the river is red!

You told me to live temporarily?

Pooh!

It has belonged to my race since ancient times!

On racial issues, you can be rational, but never neutral!

Although Shenzhou is large, there is no place that is redundant!

Humans in the water area are not suitable for living?

I put it there, plant lotus, dig water chestnut, I am happy!

If it is not livable today, what if it will be livable tomorrow?

Seeing Chen Luo's uneasy expression, Hai Rui explained (arched) and released (fired) again: "Who wrote this memorial is unknown, but it was not accepted by the court at that time."

"However, according to the miscellaneous records of the Spring and Autumn Hall, at the end of the Human Dynasty, there was a crocodile dragon aquarium who took advantage of the Holy War of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism to live in a large lake. At first, it was said that they had offended the Yuanhai dragons. here."

"Later, he directly bribed the local officials, rented the Great Lake as a forest, and settled in the lake ever since."

"This move has been followed by the aquarium."

"For this matter, there are voices of opposition within the human race, but they are always suppressed by the saints of ritual and dao."

"They thought, 'Zi said, it is such a pleasure to have friends come from afar', and they emphasized that 'peace is the most important thing'."

"until…"

"The previous dynasty was shattered, and the northern barbarians invaded. In order to strengthen their strength, the human races in various places signed cooperation contracts with the local water tribes to resist the barbarians. From that moment on, the governance of the water area was officially proposed."

Listening to Hai Rui's detailed statement of the ins and outs of the matter, Chen Luo nodded slightly.

"Having said so much, what exactly is the governance of the waters?" Chen Luo asked.

"Back to Zhu Kingdom, the so-called water area governance refers to rivers, lakes and seas of a certain size, below the water surface of three feet, it is the territory of the Aquarium, not the territory of Daxuan."

"Aquarium autonomy!"

Gan!

Murderous intent flashed in Chen Luo's eyes.

This TM is still a colony!

"Is there no one to care about Daxuan standing in the court?" Chen Luo calmed down a little, and asked.

This is unreasonable.

Not to mention the emperors who opened the dynasty of Daxuan, but his own teacher Bo Linhuang and the reckless Emperor Wu, with their personalities, they shouldn't let such existences be allowed to exist!

What else is going on here?

Hai Rui hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't have the authority to view some of the materials in this dynasty. But if you say you object, there are indeed people who object, and what they did was extremely sensational."

Chen Luo was slightly taken aback, searched his mind, seemed to think of something, and said, "Han Sheng?"

Hai Rui nodded, "It's Mr. Chang Li, the head of the church."

"When Mr. Changli was not consecrated, he was an official in Yuzhou and the governor of Yuzhou."

"At that time, there was a big river in Yuzhou, and crocodile dragons often appeared in the river, killing the people on the bank."

"Mr. Changli wrote the "Crocodile Sacrifice" in hand, erected a monument in Zhenjiang, and solved the problem of crocodiles!"

Chen Luo was deep in thought, and tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically. After a while, he said to Hai Rui, "I understand the truth of this matter."

"The truth will be dealt with."

"You go back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to hand over the work of this inspection."

Hai Rui nodded, saluted and was about to leave. Chen Luo thought of something again and said, "What about the pleading paper of the woman who sued with death? Leave it to me."

Hearing this, Hai Rui quickly took out a folded paper from his pocket and handed it to Chen Luo.

Seeing Hai Rui's behavior, Chen Luo also smiled: "You wear it close to your body, but you don't take the initiative to give it to me... What if I don't ask you?"

Hai Rui said sternly, "The next official will return to Sanquan County after handing over the work, and open the case again in the name of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

"Trial the villagers first, then the water demon!"

A strange color flashed in Chen Luo's eyes, and he said, "Are you afraid that I won't be subject to this case?"

Hai Rui's face remained unchanged, and he replied: "The existence of governance over the waters must have its own reasons. The pros and cons of the relationship between the human race and the water race is a matter for the Zhu Kingdom to consider. Rui dare not make things difficult for the Zhu Kingdom. Rui has a responsibility. If there is a grievance, it must be sued, and if there is a case, it must be investigated!"

Chen Luo took a look at Hai Rui, yes, it was the Haigang Peak in his impression!

"Let's go back."

"I, Chen Luo, are still here, so I won't make you sacrifice for your duties."

Hai Rui saluted Chen Luo respectfully, then turned and left.

Chen Luo spread out the paper, glanced at the content on it, and his face, which had been relieved by Hai Rui just now, became gloomy again.

The content of the pleadings is not complicated. It says that there is Suicune in the Jiami River, who eats ten babies every year, so as to bless the fishing village where the woman lives with a good harvest and safe sailing.

Seeing this, Chen Luo's expression was quite normal, after all, Hai Rui had told him about this. But the content below made Chen Luo unable to hold back.

The pleadings explain the origin of the ten babies each year.

Abducted!

Every year in this fishing village called "Hongdong", a part of the money will be specially set aside to buy abducted and trafficked babies, which will then be used as sacrifices to the Lord of Water in the River.

But this year, the trafficker didn't get enough young children. The woman was once harassed by the son of the village chief, and kicked the lifeblood of the other party in self-defense. The village head held a grudge, and this time he put her child on the list of sacrifices.

After her husband came back, he wanted to save his own child, so he never came back.

"Poor, pathetic, hateful!"

Chen Luo sighed and put away the pleadings.

"Dragon-cutting platform?" Since the target is the Shui tribe, Chen Luo naturally thought of the "Dragon-cutting platform" that Goulian Tiandao set up when he just wrote "Journey to the West", but then shook his head.

First of all, although the dragon-cutting platform is an externalization of the rules of heaven, it is similar to the three swords of the blue sky, and it is more of a torture tool than a catastrophe.

The dragon-cutting platform does not automatically fall into catastrophe when it detects a creature that violates the rules, but requires the human race to capture the opponent and press it under the guillotine before execution.

Secondly, the Dragon Cutting Platform is essentially a supplement to the rules that were born in response to Yuan Hai, and it is aimed at "clans protected by the Dao of Heaven".

The "protection" here is equivalent to the "wild card" issued by Tiandao, which refers to non-heavenly beings, such as dragons.

Once a dragon is sentenced to death by the human race, the dragon-cutting platform can remove it from the "Heaven's wild card list" remotely, and there is no need to capture the opponent.

However, as long as the inland water monsters are not of the direct bloodline of the dragon clan, or have mastered the "Dragon Transformation Art" and cultivated the "body of a real dragon", they are still creatures of the Dao of Heaven, born as part of the Dao of Heaven, and do not need additional protection.

So this matter cannot be solved with the dragon-cutting platform.

Chen Luo pondered for a moment, and called out, "Old Mastiff!"

Mastiff Lingling rushed over at the first time and asked, "What is your order?"

"Go to the main hall and post a message to Prime Minister Han, saying that I will visit Prime Minister Han at night!"

"Yes!" Mastiff Lingling nodded and arranged to go.



In the evening, Chen Luo's carriage stopped at the gate of Han Qingzhu's mansion.

At this moment, the middle door of the mansion opened, and Han Qingzhu's daughter, Han Yunge, had already been waiting at the door with a few old servants. When she saw Chen Luo's carriage, she hurried forward, and Fuli said: "The daughter of the people, Han Yunge, has seen Faxiang."

Chen Luo got off the carriage and quickly helped Han Yunge up: "Sister Yunge, don't dare to do this, I'm going to kill you little brother."

Han Yunge said with a smile on his face, "Courtesy cannot be discarded."

"Well, I haven't seen you in a year, and I've grown taller."

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo quickly apologized, "It's my younger brother's fault that I haven't visited my sister since returning to Beijing."

"You have a heavy burden and you live in the Zhu Kingdom. Don't worry about these small things." Han Yunge pulled Chen Luo into the mansion, and said, "But I'm old, and I need a good wife to help you deal with it." These mundane things are good!"

"Ah... I got it, little brother..." Chen Luo quickly changed the subject, "Is the Prime Minister back?"

"I came back early, I knew you were coming, I specially arranged a banquet myself, and I am waiting for you."

Following Han Yunge into the flower hall, he saw Han Qingzhu sitting in the flower hall, and when he saw Chen Luo coming in, he hummed softly: "Because I've become a Dharma minister, I'm putting on airs."

"Come here if you want, treat it like your own home, and you have to make a post."

"Is it intentional to ask your elder sister Yun Ge to meet you at the door?"

Before Chen Luo could speak, Han Yunge said first, "Little Luo's every move is watched by countless people, how can he be as free as before!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Chen Luo: "You guys talk first, and I'll let the back chef serve the food."

Chen Luo nodded: "Thank you, sister."

Han Yunge patted Chen Luo on the shoulder and left the flower hall. At this moment, Han Qingzhu said, "Come and sit."

"Since the greeting card has been posted, there must be an important matter to discuss. Therefore, Yun Ge didn't arrange for servants to serve him, so he poured tea himself if he wanted to drink tea."

Chen Luo nodded, walked to the table and sat down.

"What's the matter?" Han Qingzhu asked straight to the point.

Chen Luo didn't talk nonsense, took out the envelope from his sleeve, and handed it to Han Qingzhu.

Han Qingzhu took the pleading paper, looked at it carefully, frowned slightly, then put down the pleading paper, looked at Chen Luo, and asked, "Are you angry?"

Chen Luo nodded.

"Today I learned a new term, called water governance!"

"Thanks to Hai Rui's tossing around in Chunqiu Hall, I know the ins and outs of this matter."

"Why did I check all the functions and powers of the Minister of Law when I took office, but I didn't see this statement."

Listening to Chen Luo's words, Han Qingzhu sighed slightly: "Because... there is no need..."

"Huh?" Chen Luo's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's not necessary means that there is no need to care about it, and there is no need to change it!" Han Qingzhu shook his head lightly, "Whether you don't change it or not, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages; if you manage it and change it, the advantages and disadvantages are hard to say."

Chen Luo was taken aback, pointed to the pleadings and said, "You call this matter more good than harm?"

"This is essentially an extrajudicial jurisdiction. With rivers, lakes and seas as fiefdoms, it is self-reliant in my Daxuan. It is the same as the extrajudicial privileges of the aristocratic and holy clans. It is an existence that infringes on the court's legal rights!"

"Does this do more good than harm?"

"Why did the quarrel start after such a short period of time?" Han Yunge came forward with a tray, arranged the dishes on the tray one by one, smiled at Chen Luo, and said, "Eat something first, and talk slowly if you have something to do."

"Hey, thank you sister Yunge." Chen Luo nodded, and Han Yunge stayed for a while, glared at Han Qingzhu, and left the flower hall.

Han Qingzhu looked at Chen Luo, frowned and said, "What's the rush, I'll explain it to you."

With that said, Han Qingzhu picked up the chopsticks, picked up a large piece of fish, and put it in Chen Luo's bowl: "Try it, this fish tastes very fresh."

Chen Luo picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, while Han Qingzhu said: "This fish, I bought thirty yuan a catty today, and this fish weighs three catties, which is ninety yuan. Do you know how many fish sellers get from fishermen?" Did you come?"

"Three pennies per catty!" Han Qingzhu gave the answer by himself without waiting for Chen Luo to speak.

"Don't think too little. Fresh fish are transported from Luoshui Port to Zhongjing. To keep them fresh, you need a lot of talismans. When you arrive in Zhongjing, tax, shop rent, labor...these are all expenses."

"I know you care about people's livelihood, but do you know what three Wen and one catty fish mean to fishermen?"

"The price of grain in Luozhou is fifty-five yuan per catty of weak rice."

"It means that he only needs to catch more than ten catties a day, which is enough for a family of five to eat rice and noodles for a day."

"If it exceeds a hundred catties a day, he can even support a child in school."

"My Daxuan territory has countless rivers and lakes. In addition to farming, this inland fishery feeds nearly a quarter of Daxuan's population!"

Hearing this, Chen Luo put down the chopsticks in his hand: "Is this catch given by those underwater monsters?"

"Can't we breed it ourselves?"

Han Qingzhu chuckled, and continued: "The reproduction of aquatic species far exceeds that of terrestrial creatures. There are as many as one million ovulations at a time. The survival rate of the eggs of water monsters is much higher than that of ordinary fish, which is enough to support both sides of the strait. fisherman."

"Of the eggs of water monsters, those who can become demons will be taken from one in a million, or even one in a billion, and the rest can be captured by our human race. The water tribe has no objection to this."

"In addition, the fish, shrimp and crabs hatched from the water monster's eggs contain a trace of blood power in their flesh. Long-term consumption by humans can also improve the body."

"Since the establishment of the human race, the lifespan and vitality of the human race have shown an upward trend, and diet is the main reason."

Chen Luo pondered for a moment, then said: "So, the human race agrees and even supports the water race to thrive in the territory of Daxuan..."

Han Qingzhu nodded, took another bite of the dish, and said, "This is just one of them."

"Secondly, if you look carefully at the history of the human race, you will find that there are very few famines."

"Among them, there is the contribution of the Aquarium."

"The so-called famine, there are two main types, one is water and the other is drought."

"My Confucian school naturally has the supernatural power of 'calling the wind and calling the rain', the secret technique of 'hundred rivers return to the sea', and even the official technique of 'turning the clouds and rain' in the imperial court!"

"There is no need to worry about the enemy, but it is used for people's livelihood, which consumes a lot of money for the caster. For accuracy and breadth, except for a very few powerful ones, none of them can compare with the water control talent of the Shui tribe."

"It takes a lot of luck to perform official skills."

"Therefore, asking the aquarium to help and take care of one side is the most cost-effective and effective way!"

"That's why the imperial court rewards these water monsters with titles of kings, and they are called water lords."

As he said that, Han Qingzhu picked up the paper and said, "At first glance, it's true that people and gods are all angry."

"Nyxes are different. Some are good-natured, while others are cruel."

"Some eat people and kill people, as stated in the pleadings; some require sacrifices to young girls every year for their pleasure."

"But from the perspective of Daxuan as a whole, the overall performance of the water demon is good. Compared with the number of deaths in these cases and the effect of the water demon on the human race, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

"You know, even in cases like this, most of them are agreements reached between the local people and the monsters in the water." Han Qingzhu tapped the paper with his hand, "If it wasn't this woman's child who was sacrificed this time, wouldn't she Don't sue?"

"Or, if this village doesn't buy abducted and trafficked babies as sacrifices, but defaults to their own children, won't they sue?"

: "If you want to judge the Shui people, I'm afraid the first ones to disagree are not the Shui people, but those fishermen!"

"Those who harm them, give them benefits, as long as they don't harm themselves; those who help them cut off all the channels to reap the benefits, and they think you are harming them."

"After all, it's a bad debt."

"So, don't care, don't change, don't mention it."

Listening to Han Qingzhu's words, Chen Luo was silent.

This time there was silence for half an hour.

Chen Luo repeated Han Qingzhu's words over and over again in his mind. These words sounded reasonable, but Chen Luo always felt that something was wrong.

Han Qingzhu was not in a hurry, he ate the food slowly, but his eyes fell on the paper from time to time.

Finally, Chen Luo raised his head, and his eyes recovered.

"wrong!"

"Han Xiang, what you said is wrong!"

"There is a problem with this pros and cons analysis!"

Chen Luo's eyes were piercing, and he said, "Whether it's fishing or flying clouds to spread rain, you only see that the Shui tribe is beneficial to our human race, but is my human race not beneficial to them?"

"The rivers, lakes and seas belong to my human race!"

"It was my human race who gave them shelter!"

"They provide the catch, as they should!"

"There is no reason to rent a house without paying rent!"

"When did this become a favor?"

"As for the clouds and the rain... we can give them official positions and let them enjoy their salaries!"

"This is by no means an umbrella to shield them from committing crimes!"

Chen Luo stood up: "Right now, this is not the governance of the waters! They are given the sovereignty of the waters!"

"They can be self-governing, but they must be under the jurisdiction of the Daxuan court!"

"It can only be relative autonomy, not absolute autonomy!"

Hearing Chen Luo's words, Han Qingzhu was taken aback for a moment, and then slammed the chopsticks on the table hard.

"yes!"

"Damn it, I was brainwashed by those ethical people!"

"How can I be so aggrieved when I say this truth!"

"Boy, what are you going to do?"

Chen Luo looked at the pleading paper and said solemnly: "The aquariums in the world, it's time to change the rules for them."
