Some people can be communicated with with words, but some animals can only be communicated with with sticks.
Poor Taoist Xianyou Jindu: "My streamer is so kind. She even thought of letting those animals go."
Nongfu Shanquan Youdianxuan: "Tsk, tsk. How thick of a fan filter do you wear? Has the streamer ever been kind? Those scumbags were forced to become prostitutes because the streamer misled them. She's fishing for justice. She should sympathize with those scumbags. "
Guicai Guofengxiao: "The crime of overstepping one's authority can be serious or minor. It all depends on whether the person in power is merciful or ruthless. The streamer might as well be ruthless and let them see blood. That way, she can make an example out of them and deter those who have evil intentions but haven't taken action yet. "
Toudu Feiqiu: "Yes! Severe punishment is needed in troubled times! Kindness is useless at times like this. Kindness is a sharp weapon against gentlemen, but it's connivance against villains. To deal with villains, you can only fight poison with poison and an eye for an eye. They will only listen to you when they are truly afraid of you. "
The audience's bullet screen was non-stop. Jiang Pengji had a plan in her mind.
"This matter will be handled by Wenzheng and Huaiyu. In order to deter those who are hiding in the dark, they must be dealt with severely."
Qiguan Rang and Feng Jin stepped forward to receive the order.
Jiang Pengji sent the two of them to handle this matter. It was obvious that she didn't give those scumbags a chance to make a comeback.
Qiguan Rang came from a humble background. He was low-key and eccentric. He rarely interacted with outsiders. It was almost impossible to rope him in. Feng Jin was the only person under Jiang Pengji who was "tall, rich, and handsome." He wouldn't be merciful to scumbags with low morals.
It was basically impossible to make a comeback after meeting these two people.
The people of Wanzhou had watched enough of a good show these days.
They loved the drama of evil retribution. They watched as the few people who spoiled their concubines to the death of their wives, overstepped their authority, and forced women to become prostitutes fall one after another. The people raised their hands in celebration. Some people even bought firecrackers to celebrate, using it to vent the grievances and depression they had suffered recently.
Feng Jin and Qiguan Rang didn't go easy on them. Although those people weren't sentenced to death, they had to be flogged 80 to 50 times in public. Each family was fined 1,000 strings of coins and confiscated their illegal property. Their entire family, old and young, was exiled back to their ancestral home. Three generations of their clans were not allowed to become officials.
Apart from that, those women who were forced into lowly status had to be given a compensation of a hundred strings of coins to be returned to good status.
Although he was lucky enough to survive the beating, he was already half crippled.
This was the plan that Qiguan Rang and Feng Jin had come up with after discussing it.
It was true that killing these people would put an end to all troubles, but the deterrent effect would not be enough.
It would be better for them to live a life worse than death. They could only watch as the three generations of the three clans were implicated, unable to rise up, and finally go down in infamy for ten thousand years.
Combined with Wei Ci's public opinion tactics, not only did Jiang Pengji's actions not cause a backlash, but she also gained a wave of diehard fans.
Those who had evil intentions but had yet to take action secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, they were able to control their lower bodies and did not spoil their concubines, nor did they overstep their bounds by taking in concubines.
Some of the people who had secretly kept a few mistresses were also terrified. They paid a large sum of money to get rid of the mistresses and became much more obedient.
Jiang Pengji asked Han Yu and his team to redraft the marriage laws.
Some viewers in the streaming room asked her to take the opportunity to abolish the concubine system, but after careful consideration, Jiang Pengji gave up on the suggestion.
It was unrealistic to abolish the concubine system based on the current level of society, and it would also cause a violent backlash.
Instead of abolishing it altogether, it was better to regulate the concubine system first. For example, a commoner could have one husband and one wife, and no matter how high an official's rank was, he could take a concubine after forty years of age. This compromise would calm those who were eager to make trouble. No one knew better than Jiang Pengji that as long as society developed to a certain stage, the concubine system would not be able to keep up with the pace of the times and would naturally be eliminated. There was no hurry to abolish it.
Moreover, there were policies from above and countermeasures from below.
Men could not put "concubines" on the table, but they had other ways.
For example, keeping singers and dancers, adopting so-called "adopted daughters", or the wife's dowry maids …
It was said that they were temporarily staying in the residence, but in fact, they were women who warmed the bed.
Of course, if a man who was not qualified to take a concubine gave birth to a concubine's child, he would inevitably be severely punished.
With Jiang Pengji's help, Han Yu summarized the marriage laws into several major categories, such as marriage, divorce, protection during marriage, responsibilities and obligations of both parties in marriage … Each category had a detailed classification and description. For example, there were divorce forms such as "divorce", "divorce by marriage", "divorce by marriage", and "peaceful divorce". In order to draft the laws, Han Yu had read more than five thousand related files. He even took his team to many places, which made Mrs. Han's face more and more gloomy.
What did he mean?
Was Han Yu planning to get a wife?
His eldest son, Han Run, was also anxious. One day, he finally plucked up the courage to ask Han Yu.
Han Yu was stunned at first, then he explained, not knowing whether he should laugh or cry.
Han Run asked, "Why did Lord Lanting entrust this matter to my father?"
He thought that his father preferred to give advice on the battlefield and revise the laws, which sounded boring to him.
Han Run also found that his father's study was almost flooded by old files. There was not even a place to stand. It was too tiring.
Han Yu shook his head with a smile. "You are still young. You don't understand my choice."
Compared to the battlefield, he was more suitable for this stage.
Jiang Pengji gave Han Yu enough authority to choose his own people to set up a special department to revise the laws.
Although there was no specific official title, judging from the salary, treatment, and responsibilities, it was almost equal to the Minister of Justice, one of the nine ministers.
Of course, Han Yu's current task was only to revise the new laws.
Although the marriage laws were revised by Han Yu, it was Jiang Pengji and the eight hundred and fifty thousand idle fish viewers who made the final decision.
Because of the predecessors' information and experience, it didn't take long to revise the laws. The whole article was about five thousand and eight hundred words.
Jiang Pengji couldn't help but praise Han Yu to the idle fish.
She said, "Wenbin is really born for this job."
Classical Chinese was indeed concise, but it was easy to find loopholes in the interpretation. Han Yu chose to learn from his teachers, Master Yuanjing and Cheng Cheng. He boldly used the vernacular that ordinary people could understand to reduce the chance of finding loopholes. It was an innovative move.
It was a good move. It was easy to disseminate and promote. The only drawback was that it wasted too much paper.
There were all kinds of idle fish in the streaming room. Jiang Pengji discussed with several lawyers for a while and revised some of the unreasonable content. She asked Han Yu to take it back and rework. Of course, it didn't mean that the draft could be finalized. In the end, everyone had to read it.
Only when everyone was satisfied with the draft could the matter be considered finished.
For Han Yu, the revision of the new marriage laws was just a warm-up. At least the marriage laws could still follow the experience of the predecessors, and there were traces to be followed after some modifications. However, the child protection laws that the lord had passed down to him had to start from scratch, and he had to explore and accumulate them bit by bit.
The stormy one month finally passed.
With the arrival of spring, the tense atmosphere was finally relieved. The wives of the families started to move around.
