When his parents divorced, there was a long legal battle.
From that time on, Xu Tianxing became interested in law.
I have been studying law by myself until I met Teacher Xu in Class 9.
Xu Tianxing still remembers the first time he boldly explained legal knowledge in front of his classmates.
That time, because Zhou Tao was fighting outside, Teacher Xu taught everyone practical fighting and grappling skills in the physical education class.
Xu Tianxing volunteered to explain the difference between legitimate defense and excessive defense to his classmates in physical education class.
He clearly remembered how nervous and uneasy he felt when he stood in front of his classmates, and he almost couldn't speak properly.
It was Teacher Xu’s encouragement and the support of his classmates that allowed him to reach where he is today step by step.
He is very familiar with the complicated legal provisions.
It’s so familiar that you can almost pick it up at your fingertips.
But when he was arranged by Teacher Xu to intern at a law firm.
What he saw and heard there made him, who had a good heart, become taciturn.
Tongtian Law Firm is a large law firm.
The scope of business received is also very wide.
The reason why Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingyu approached Tongtian Law Firm for Shen Manying's case this time was because they had taken on many cases in the entertainment industry and were quite famous.
Regarding Shen Manying, Xu Tianxing is naturally on her side.
Zhang Hongliang cleverly took the money and sent Mu Qingyu to prison, which naturally made Xu Tianxing and his classmates very happy.
But this method is not only applicable to Mu Qingyu, but also to all clients who come to seek legal action.
If it's just this thing, that's it.
But when Xu Tianxing was an intern at Tongtian Law Firm, he also saw other darkness.
This made Xu Tianxing, who had not yet stepped out of the ivory tower, feel very sad.
Shouldn't the reason for studying law be for the simple concept of justice in our hearts and to safeguard justice?
Why are there some cases where the criminals should be brought to justice, but barristers use superb methods to let them get away with it?
Xu Tianxing still can't understand it now.
Therefore, when Teacher Xu asked about the progress of Shen Manying's case, Xu Tianxing confided in Teacher Xu.
But Xu Tianxing never expected it.
Instead of comforting himself, Teacher Xu said something that was unbelievable to him.
The essence of the law is not to pursue fairness and justice?
But is it the manifestation of the will of the ruling class?
Moreover, this is actually Marx’s view?
Xu Tianxing only felt that his understanding had been subverted.
Xu Jie has been paying attention to the changes in Xu Tianxing's expression.
He knew that his words must have a great impact on Xu Tianxing.
“Everyone’s original intention of starting law school is different.”
"Why do you think those legal practitioners in law firms study law?"
Xu Tianxing frowned and replied: "Teacher Xu, isn't it for the justice in your heart?"
After all, Xu Tianxing is still a high school student, so it is only natural to have good intentions.
But law, as Xu Tianxing himself said, is actually not beautiful.
Xu Jie smiled and shook his head.
"Because doctors and lawyers are respected by ordinary people and can make a lot of money."
"It's what people consider a good career."
"The original intention of most people to study Fa is to survive, to live, and to eat."
"Not for so-called justice."
"Justice is the higher pursuit after wearing warm clothes and having a full meal."
"Real society is separated from campus life. If you want to go further on the road of law studies, you must first accept this reality."
When Xu Jie was on campus, he would not engage in such shady things with Xu Tianxing.
Only when he interned at a law firm and saw how a real lawsuit was fought could he recover from reality and break away from campus.
Campus and society are like two parallel worlds.
Although there are some things in common, the thoughts of most students are pure and beautiful.
But after experiencing the severe beatings from society, they will understand what is the law of survival in the real world.
Only children can tell right from wrong.
In this world, how can there be absolute "right" and how can there be absolute "wrong"?
Teacher Xu's words undoubtedly made Xu Tianxing even more uncomfortable.
The original intention of most people to learn the law is to survive?
For food?
It is naturally difficult to understand Xu Tianxing who is troubled by problems such as survival and food.
But out of instinctive trust in Teacher Xu, Xu Tianxing could not refute anything.
"I'll give you another example and you'll understand."
Xu Jie smiled again and said:
"What are the questions for the civil service exam now?"
"The essence of a civil servant is to serve the people."
"But how many people really take the civil service examination for this purpose?"
"Of course there are idealists in this world who are righteous and full of emotions."
"But if such people cannot put on the disguise of reality, their so-called ideals will never be realized."
Xu Tianxing is not stupid. After hearing what Teacher Xu said so much, he gradually gained some understanding of his own.
"Those who truly have the Dharma in their hearts and have a righteous heart also need to wear worldly clothes."
"Those who truly want to serve the people and fight for the cause of communism also need to wear secular clothes."
"Teacher Xu, is it just like what the ancients said?"
"The small hermit hides in the wild, the big hermit hides in the city, the big hermit hides in the court?"
Xu Jie smiled and patted Xu Tianxing on the shoulder.
"That's right."
"As long as you can stick to your true heart and have justice in your heart."
"Then it doesn't matter even if outsiders think what you do is not beautiful."
"remember."
"The law is the most powerful personal weapon in modern civilized society!"
"It can save people from fire and water."
"You can also kill people invisible!"
"What it looks like depends on who is using the weapon."
After Teacher Xu’s enlightenment, Xu Tianxing’s mood was like riding a roller coaster.
Summarize as you think.
Xu Tianxing gradually came out of that depressed state.
His legal talent is very high.
However, no matter how talented you are in law, you are essentially just a person with a strong ability to accept law.
As for speculation on human nature outside of law?
It's not something a young man of his age can suddenly realize.
"Teacher Xu, I will read more, think more, and summarize more."
Xu Tianxing temporarily suppressed the negative emotions in his heart.
"According to Mr. Zhang's wishes."
"Because Shen Manying is a minor."
"So Mu Qingyu, Ge Peipei and the others will inevitably increase the severity of their punishment based on the principle of severity."
"In the end, the sentence will probably be eight or nine years."
Xu Jie nodded.
This result is not far from his prediction.
"Then do you want to continue your internship?"
"If you don't want to intern, just go back to Zhongnan."
"When you go to college and enter the society, your thoughts will naturally be different from what you think now."
Xu Tianxing shook his head.
"Teacher Xu, I want to continue."
"Since you have chosen this path, you should accept its flaws and disadvantages."
"As long as I stick to my heart and have justice in my heart, then the law in my hands will be a weapon of justice."
Xu Jie patted Xu Tianxing on the shoulder happily.
