"The law pulls people back from the edge of sin, rather than pushing people into sin."
Ying Cheng did not give Li Zhan any face and directly denied it:
"Your punishment is too arbitrary and cold. The law should have a human touch."
"The law cannot tolerate mercy, but the law can be tolerant."
"You are just using cold laws to judge whether B is guilty."
"Keep your rationality. The law is people-oriented. All laws that go against people's natural emotions are useless and ultimately harmful."
No one expected it.
Ying Cheng so resolutely denied the verdict of Li Zhan, the Great Qin Tingwei and the chief of the highest law enforcement authority.
No mercy at all.
You can carefully consider what Ying Cheng said.
But it made them think deeply.
"The law is merciless, but the law can be merciful!"
Prime Minister Sizhi couldn't help but murmur in a low voice, chewing on what Ying Cheng said.
The others couldn't help but frown.
"The law is the law, and there is no mercy in the law. If the law is mixed with personal feelings, favoritism and perversion of the law will be repeatedly prohibited."
Li Zhan was very unconvinced and retorted angrily:
"People's emotional concepts are complex and changeable. If you are close, you will avoid the law, and if you are angry, you will respect the law."
"The law can only make people fear the law and not break the law unless it becomes a cold regulation. No matter what else, violators will be punished by the law."
"Does Dalu Ling think that good people will break the law, and only those who do evil or want to do evil will break the law?"
"Thus, between A and B, the ethics of family ties come first, and the murderer comes last. Because of family ties, B kills A, which is against the rules. We cannot ask B to kill him just because A is seriously ill, and then it is deemed that B can kill A."
"If we talk about this, can those in power be greedy for infringement if they benefit one party? It is meritorious to benefit one party, but this is by no means a reason for being greedy for ink."
"Back to the pair A and B, A is kind and B is filial."
"However, the law is the law, and if it is illegal, it is illegal. The ethics and etiquette education only make people know that A is kind and B is filial, but it cannot be the reason for B to kill A."
"As law enforcers, we must and can only see that the cause is that person B kills person A, and the result is that person A dies. This cannot change the fact that it violates human ethics."
Li Zhan's words were sharp and decisive.
I have no intention of retreating and I want to have a clear argument with Ying Cheng today.
If you want the law to be reasonable, you should give a light sentence or not give it at all.
Unless, trample on his Li Zhan's body.
Li Zhan's words gradually fell to the ground, and everyone's eyes in the hall fell on Ying Cheng.
Fa Ke Tong Qing was proposed by Ying Cheng.
They also think it is reasonable and reasonable for the law to be reasonable.
But this case.
There is no escaping the fact that no matter what the reason is, there is a fact that cannot be changed.
Ying Cheng sighed in his heart, knowing that such a scene would appear.
Moreover, this itself is a problem that cannot be ignored.
but.
He still wanted to defend this.
"Ahem!"
Ying Cheng shook his head and said: "Master Tingwei, what you condemned is based on the provisions of the law and etiquette."
"This is not wrong. In this case, B did violate the law."
"But, I want to say it!"
"In the process of law enforcement, we should follow a standard."
"The law is the basis for criminalization!"
"Morality is the basis for committing crimes!"
"Based on Qin law, B is indeed guilty, but judging by morality, A is kind and B is filial. This is a fact."
"And A made this request out of love for B. The painful torture for ten years also dragged down the filial B for ten years, and he had no hope of life."
"I believe that in the process of making this decision, B must have struggled, condemned himself, and suffered in pain, but he finally made this decision."
"I think the reason why B killed A was because A had been seriously ill and paralyzed for ten years, so he cherished B and asked B to end his life."
"As a result, B obeyed A's words and ended A's life."
"It should be a misdemeanor, not a felony."
After Ying Cheng said that, he glanced around.
No one has commented yet, and there is no movement.
Everyone seems to be deep in thought.
"The law is the basis for conviction, and morality is the basis for guilt!" Ying Cheng couldn't help but repeat this sentence again.
After talking so much nonsense, his core idea was to convey this sentence.
However, no one gave any reaction.
"The law is the basis for conviction, and morality is the basis for guilt!" Ying Cheng repeated again.
But.
But it attracted strange stares from Li Zhan and Da Shiling!
All right!
Ying Cheng keeps his mouth shut, every era has its own characteristics.
He can't open other people's heads and force these words into them.
Since it's a discussion, let's talk freely.
It doesn't have to be right or wrong.
For Yingcheng.
These are just factors that need to be taken into consideration when he wants to discuss legislation from cases.
Just like this classic legal saying, he wanted to incorporate some thoughts about the law.
That's all.
Only then can we provide a basis for thinking and measurement for the legislation of this law in Da Qin.
Rather than having to distinguish right from wrong here.
at the same time.
Among these cases, there are also cases of doing business, threatening the stability of the Qin Dynasty, and officials breaking the law.
These all need to be measured and thought about.
If we don’t have an accurate concept when legislation is being enacted now.
So.
In the future, some people will propose a class law with extremely strong color such as no courtesy to common people and no punishment to scholar-officials.
Then everything he did today would be in vain.
Therefore, he must effectively avoid legislation from the perspective of future generations.
"That's true!"
Finally, after thinking for a long time, the Chief Minister of the Prime Minister's Office felt that what Ying Cheng said made sense.
"After all, from the perspective of being a son of man, Person B has tried his best. Similarly, Person A has been paralyzed for ten years and has no thoughts. We cannot judge it based on ordinary ethics."
But before he finished speaking, Prime Minister Sizhi shook his head and said: "But it is undeniable that A is guilty."
"At the same time, morality can be used as a consideration in formulating laws, but it must not affect legal judgments."
"There are no standards for etiquette, and everyone's standards for etiquette are different. When enforcing the law, the punishment of the law cannot be decided based on personal opinions, and the punishment must be based on procedures."
"This is the bottom line of the law!"
Chen Qiang from Feng Changling City also added: "Moreover, we must also consider another issue."
"If the punishment is based on this, it will be an example. What if someone follows suit in the future? What will be the basis for the situation at home? There is no basis for investigation."
Then.
After arguing for a long time, there is still no concrete conclusion.
Moreover, there were so many people supporting Li Zhan's verdict that Ying Cheng could only pass by temporarily and said: "Second one!"
"This second one, I think, can't be used to catch A!" Li Zhan smiled, and he was very handy with all kinds of cases.
"Criminal cases must have laws and regulations for trial and judgment, and the case must be investigated, inspected, interrogated, etc., and tangible evidence must be obtained to convict."
"Without evidence, you can't make false claims."
However, Da Shiling shook his head and said: "But the fact is that A is indeed a criminal. After investigation, inspection and other processes, the government can confirm that he is A. The only thing missing is evidence. If he is arrested based on this, everyone is happy and can have it."
Before he finished speaking, someone objected:
"The law is based on laws and has its own procedures. This is tantamount to condemning evil first, so what is the use of stipulating legal procedures?"
"If everyone in the government office decides the case based on this, wouldn't it turn into convicting people based on rumors? Whoever has more people and whoever has a louder voice can arbitrarily convict others."
"The third one!"
"D hindered A from pursuing the fugitive, beat A to serious injury, and caused B to escape. D is sentenced to life imprisonment. Among them, C used B to cause serious consequences, and B and D are guilty of the same crime."
"It cannot be denied that Ding was unaware of this condition. He was deceived by C and mistakenly believed that B was being chased by murderer A, so he stopped A."
"Obstructing the government in handling cases will be treated as a crime. How can there be so many conditions?"
"The fourth one!"
"The murderer is not guilty!"
"Why do you want to convict Female A or her friend of murder like this?"
"The male A attempted to invade first and committed the crime first. The female A resisted, so she is naturally not guilty."
"Then you are not contradicting the first judgment before. Similarly, you first stood on morality to convict, but the gap between before and after is so big."
"The fifth path!"
"A practices medicine and kills people, and he deserves to be punished!"
"A should be innocent, but D is unreasonable and makes trouble. How can one be willing to get sick?"
…
The discussion in Dalu Mansion became more and more intense.
Even to the end.
Ying Cheng could only stand aside and watch the thirty-six members quarreling bit by bit.
I'm about to blow my head off.
Saw this scene.
Ying Cheng expressed his satisfaction.
This is the effect you want.
Successfully started the war!
These cases themselves are highly controversial.
It is the product of the double-edged sword of morality and law.
Thinking from the actual criminal and moral level, they are two completely different sentences.
And this.
It is friction and friction, and friction brings out the spark of wisdom.
Because that's all.
Only then can we create a vague concept on the matter of legislation.
If it comes to setting the ceremony, he needs to show a strong attitude to do it for the fifth and ninth levels.
So when it comes to the specific Ten Principles of Qin Law, he must remain a neutral person or even a bystander to determine the law.
Dingli, the fifth grade and the ninth grade, is the general direction and a framework. It has a forward-looking vision.
Comprehensive consideration.
Use class theory to supplement the theory of unification to make up for the extreme contradictions and conflicts caused by the feudal system.
But there are rules!
He cannot formulate different laws for the world that are close to the most real people's livelihood with the eyes of someone who has traveled as far as Yongcheng to see the world.
And these people in front of you are the subjects of the established laws.
Because these people have to deal with all kinds of outrageous and not outrageous things in the world every day.
Among them, Li Zhan is the core.
He could decisively think that Li Zhan was not a good second uncle, but he had to admit that Li Zhan was in charge of Tingwei's understanding and interpretation of the execution of Daqin's laws.
The debate in Dalu Mansion is heated.
And at the same time.
Yongcheng, Dazheng Palace!
The peaceful Dazheng Palace also received an unsettling shock!
