Chapter 165 What is Freedom(1/3)
Chapter 165 What is freedom
Feng Yibo doesn't know what to do here yet.
Even if he knows, he can't care.
Not to mention him, even the government may not be able to take care of it.
It seems like a human life, but a slave life...
That's all!
Anyone who understands it understands it.
Although the laws of the Great Wei clearly stipulate:
The master deliberately killed the slave and his servant, and his staff was seventy rods, and he was a one-year prisoner.
If it is a man-killing, a fine of ten cents will be imposed.
It can be stipulated, and execution is execution.
Not to mention "seventy rods are a year's imprisonment", even if there is a fine, few people have paid it.
The government of the Great Wei Dynasty has always said that it is better to have less than more things" and respected "the people will not prosecute officials if they do not prosecute them."
Those who can afford slaves are not ordinary people.
At least they are some of the top.
Guerlain is a slave woman bought from Jiangnan, but she has no relatives.
There are too many ways to deal with it.
For a wealthy family like the Jia family, what is the point of dying a few slaves?
For such a family, the government dares to "find three glasses of wine".
Maybe they all feel that it has been a little over.
After all, which nobleman has never killed several slaves?
In fact, the Jia family is already very decent in such matters.
If you rarely move, you will die of a stick.
I am very good at servants in normal times.
From this perspective, it is really considered a "home of kindness".
Even if Wang Xifeng wants to kill Guerlain, she doesn't want to get blood like this.
Instead, I took it back to my house and tear it a little bit.
But she had to do it all, but she didn't even think that Guerlain was so soft that she could only make it hard.
But he lost his life because of this.
I can only say that she used one corpse and two lives to cause some trouble to Wang Xifeng.
But for families like the Jia family, it is not a big trouble.
The only thing to worry about is that the wife is killed and has a pregnant concubine.
All are scandals.
Once it is spread, it may lose the decency of the Jia family.
Wang Xifeng understood this and was very careful in handling it.
She took advantage of Jia Lian's name to go to Chang'an Prefecture to find several foreign coroners.
We helped organize the funeral together.
This is through the official position, declaring Guerlain's death has nothing to do with murder.
She died accidentally because of her own misfortune and short life.
Such powerful families have many Dingkou.
It's normal to die occasionally as a slave.
It didn't attract anyone's attention at all.
Even the masters of the Jia family knew about this.
After all, it was her confidant who went there.
Only Zhou Rui's family is Mrs. Wang's accompanying room.
So Mrs. Wang must have known it.
But I think this aunt and aunt won't make things difficult for her.
The only thing Wang Xifeng is worried about now is that Jia Lian is back.
How should she give a reasonable explanation?
If one person does not handle it well, the relationship between the couple will be broken.
The stone factory where Jia Lian went is not far away.
It takes only three or two days to go back and forth.
Even if I delay my work, I should come back in five, seven or eight days.
Therefore, there is not much time left for Wang Xifeng.
Before Jia Lian came back, Feng Yibo was busy.
The Honglu Temple took on a big job, and the Ministry of Rites sent him to preside over the work.
The specific content is to negotiate with overseas missions.
The envoy of Haysey Furonsya was here to negotiate this time.
He said that he came to the Great Wei Dynasty to ask for an audience with the emperor.
To appeal for the expulsion of the Great Wei army overseas.
At first, these people found Nanjing and were connected by the Nanjing Ministry of Rites.
But after a brief inquiry, it was found that it was not the army of the Wei Dynasty that was expelling them.
To be precise, it was a group of militias.
There is absolutely no precedent in this matter, so the Nanjing Ministry of Rites used this as an excuse.
Transfer to the cabinet.
The cabinet was also confused.
An envoy from a country was beaten up by a group of Great Wei militia overseas.
Don’t you be afraid of making people laugh at it when you say it?
But this Haixi Fulangsiya not only spoke it out, but also asked the Dawei to make the decision for them.
If the two children fight and can't fight and sue the parents, there is still a feeling of enlightenment.
But if an adult asks the child to beat him, do you have the nerve to complain?
What's more, the cabinet doesn't know much about the overseas situation, so how can it make the decision for them?
You can't issue an order to refute it, right?
Even if I want to denounce it, no one knows the will.
So, Zhang Songyue remembered someone.
A person who is specialized in overseas affairs.
This person doesn't need to be asked, he will naturally be the head of the Qing official department of the Ministry of Rites, and the right Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple.
Feng Yibo, who specializes in overseas affairs, is now in charge of all-round affairs.
Feng Yibo received a message from the cabinet and took on the job without saying a word.
Because just when the envoy arrived in the capital, he also received news.
The one who drove Haixi Folansya was not someone else, but Mengzi led people to do it.
These people from Haixi Folansya logged in on their territory and started to enclose land and build houses without saying a word.
The person in charge of the patrol soon discovered that the dog was directly surrounded by people.
After a brief negotiation, there was no big fight.
Just evict them and demolish the house they built.
Even Mengzi didn't take this seriously.
I only mentioned it when I was transporting the wood back to the city and reported the flow and requesting the situation on a routine basis.
If these people hadn't come to Jinling to file a lawsuit first, they would have been around again.
To be continued...
