Tiandou City, in the Tiandou Imperial Palace.

While Xue Ke was quietly watching the legal provisions that Fan Yun had not yet revised, Fan Yun was not idle either.

He got up and walked into the cupboard in the room. He took out a few cups and filled them with some sweet water. Under the flattered eyes of the maids who followed Xue Ke, he handed them the water to quench their thirst.

.

Sitting back in his seat, Fan Yun took a sip of tea. He felt the taste of the tea in the cup was bland and knew it was time to make new tea.

After pouring out the tea leaves and tea water from the teapot, Fan Yun took out the preserved tea leaves from the bracelet and put them back into the pot. He patted the big cat on the head and motioned for her to bring in the kettle placed in another room.

Seeing Two Feet using him like this, the big cat glanced sideways at Fan Yun, then rolled his eyes beautifully and slapped Two Feet's legs to express his dissatisfaction.

Then, the big cat turned his head, glanced at Xue Ke and the others next to him, snorted coldly, and turned around to get something.

If there are outsiders here, you should give your feet a little more face.

Not long after, the big cat held a kettle in its mouth, which was much bigger than her head, and slowly walked into the house with elegant steps, reaching her feet.

Smiling and rubbing the big cat's head, Fan Yun took the kettle from her mouth and poured it into the small pot placed on the small stove on the table. Then there was a flash of lightning on his fingertips, and a lightning strike

A fire core soaked in oil was lit.

"Huchi~"

Condensing the cloud gas into a feather fan, Fan Yun used the gentle breeze to blow over the flames, increasing the intensity of the fire and speeding up the process of boiling water.

While Fan Yun was preparing tea, Xue Ke, who was sitting on the other side of the table, was still immersed in the words and laws.

Due to Xue Qinghe's deliberate training and Ning Fengzhi's teaching, as well as his own royal education, although he has only been a prince for a short time and has not had much contact with political affairs, Xue Ke still has his own abilities and vision.

Xue Ke's eyes swept over the rules and regulations written on the paper. Xue Ke's thoughts were flowing rapidly. From the corner of his eyes, he paid attention to Fan Yun who was pouring water to make tea, as if he wanted to see through his actions what was in his heart.

Think what you want.

Xue Ke looked at these laws. They were different from the previous laws in the mainland. They were divided into many sections according to different types of applicable fields, such as constitutional, civil, political, commercial, Xing, litigation, etc.

Each section covers a very rich scope, and the regulations are complete and detailed, but not too strict.

However, the more careful the review was, the more obvious the doubts in Xue Ke's mind became.

On the one hand, these laws are precise and complete. It can be seen that the framers thought a lot when writing them and considered the feasibility of implementing the laws.

But on the other hand, some of the provisions in these laws made Xue Ke feel that they were too "childish" and belonged to the fantasy of idealists, which was somewhat unrealistic.

These two aspects appeared in one law at the same time, which made Xue Ke vaguely feel a sense of separation.

Why does this happen?

Putting down the many articles that she had briefly read through in her hands, Xue Ke turned her head and glanced at the setting sun and the slanting sun outside the house, then looked back at Fan Yun who was playing with the cat, thought for a moment, and asked:

"Brother Yun, I took a brief look at this law. It is really complete beyond my imagination. Even the law that the empire is proud of looks like a rough and simple outline in front of this draft.

"

"Brother Yun, did you make this up yourself?"

Facing Xue Ke's question, Fan Yun shook his head, released his hand from the teacup, put one hand on the big cat's head, scratched his fingers, and sat up straight:

"No, the original and main body of this entire set of laws were actually written by my teacher Fan Zhe. I am just making modifications and deletions."

At that time, the old man left behind far more legal and legal books than what Fan Yun puts on the table now. Even if Fan Yun deleted many inappropriate articles, what was left was still very complicated.

Over the years, it took Fan Yun a lot of effort to revise some outdated legal provisions.

"Oh, that's right." Xue Ke nodded, "Brother Yun, your teacher is really amazing."

Xue Ke remembers that many education textbooks and popular science books circulating in mainland China have Editor Fan Zhe written on their covers, which already makes Xue Ke feel very powerful.

Now I know that this Torah book was also written by Fan Zhe...

Xue Ke could only lament the difference in talent between people.

"How is it? After reading it, do you have any suggestions?" Seeing that Xue Ke seemed to be lost in thought, Fan Yun refilled her teacup with a cup of tea and asked.

After hesitating for a short while, Xue Ke glanced at Fan Yun, who had sincere eyes, and finally said: "Actually, I think the code compiled by Brother Yun is somewhat different from many laws currently existing in the mainland..."

"Whether it's the Tiandou Empire or the former Star Luo Empire, the laws of the empire have always stipulated what things are not allowed to be done and what the punishments will be. There has never been a regulation like this that also states

What rights do citizens have and what obligations should they fulfill?"

Running her fingers across the stacked papers, Xue Ke pointed at the pile of legal articles and asked:

"Aren't you worried that after the people learn these things, their wisdom will be enlightened and it will become more difficult to manage?"

"Also..." Xue Ke flipped through and found the piece of paper that she found difficult to implement. She pointed at one of the articles, "Everyone is created equal."

The complicated light in his eyes flashed away, and Xue Ke asked in a very soft voice:

"Brother Yun, you also know that human beings have been unequal since birth. Not to mention intelligence and health, the presence or absence of martial soul and soul power can divide people into two poles... How can we talk about equality in such a world?

"

Fan Yun rubbed his fingers under the big cat's chin, making her so comfortable that she narrowed her eyes and let out a soft hum. After listening to Xue Ke's question, he looked at Xue Ke and replied:

"Yes, no matter how you cover it up, there are differences between people in terms of intelligence, physique, appearance, strength, etc. Everyone's situation is different. This is an unchangeable objective existence."

"The so-called all people are born equal does not mean these things, but that everyone is an independent and equal individual in personality, a life worthy of respect, and equal in legal status."

"If the law is violated, regardless of status, it should be implemented in accordance with the law."

"The gap between people on this continent is really huge. If it is not emphasized, many people will no longer feel that they are the same species as ordinary people."

"The same goes for power and status..."

Looking at Xue Ke, Fan Yun continued: "This is not good...but the conceptual situation is difficult to reverse. After much thought, I have to add this article to the law..."

"Maybe the effect of the law is not good, but it is better than not having it at all. Having it is better than not having it."

Fan Yun sighed.

"As for why we need to add the rights and obligations of the people...will they awaken the people's wisdom because of this?"

Fan Yun chuckled lightly and asked Xue Ke: "The imperial examination has been implemented for several years, and most of the people who passed it are ordinary people. Do you think that they, who have enlightened the people's wisdom, will definitely become an obstacle to our management?

"

"Perhaps, but as of now, the wisdom of ordinary people is also a great help to us."

"Moreover, the law needs to be able to protect others, especially ordinary people."

"After all, when strong people with power encounter threats and harm, they can rely on their own abilities to solve troubles, but what about ordinary people who are weak without power?"

Touching the big cat's head, Fan Yun added:

"The only thing they can rely on is the law."
