Chapter 469 The ingenious dismount

After the embarrassment, Ji Buxian continued to take the prince around; but this small judicial square was crowded; at dusk, people who came from other places left, but there were still many people.

Especially among the countless stone tablets, there are the most people in front of a row of white stone tablets; the two big characters on it indicate the reason: the Constitution.

In the first few articles of the Constitution, Ji Buxian's eyelids twitched:

Citizens’ personal protection rights;

Citizens’ legal property rights;

Citizens' right to freedom of words and deeds...

The basic rights made countless people excited to see it, but Ji Buxian was frightened. The emergence of these so-called "basic rights" directly points to the core of the centralized system.

These seemingly simple basic rights are like a sharp blade, which rejected most of the foundation of "centralization".

A "paper" with the relationship between the "social contract" next to him made Ji Buxian grow up and he was a little stunned for a moment.

"A constitution and a social contract theory have fundamentally shaken the centralized rule. We must learn the laws of the Shang Kingdom!" Ji Buxian said to the prince Yue Ming in this way.

"It's really that important?" The prince is still in the learning stage.

"It's very important! The current way of imperial rule is centralized; at least theoretically, all rights of a country are concentrated on the emperor; all rights of all people are given by the emperor. Therefore, the emperor can ask for a country!

But the laws of the Shang Kingdom broke this boundary. The law clearly stipulates that some basic rights are sacred and inviolable, and even the wise king himself cannot trample on this basic rights.

This seemingly simple change has shaken the foundation of centralization.

Centralization is the supremacy of imperial power. All under the world is the imperial land!

However, the laws of the Shang Kingdom are the supremacy of the "overall interests of the country", and the rights of everyone are an indispensable part of the overall interests of the country!

Forget it, there is no need to continue inquiring about information. We immediately go to the city lord's mansion to indicate our identity, formally visit the Shang Kingdom, and visit the Xian King."

"Ah...so fast..." the prince said.

Is it really fast to act? Or is it really fast to betrayal by Lord Ji Buxian?

Ji Buxian's face turned black, but he also accelerated toward the city lord's mansion.

The mayor of Fuyang Town is an 18-year-old boy, and the young ones are suspicious. When this person first came to Fuyang Town a few days ago, many locals wanted to challenge authority, but they were all arrested and tried one by one according to the law. In just one day, the entire Fuyang Town met this teenager - Shao Mingjie.

At the same time, everyone also knew the origin of Shao Mingjie, the first batch of graduates from the Shang Kingdom, and the graduates who were founded by the Xianwang himself.

Suddenly, everyone closed their mouths.

At this time, Shao Mingjie was sorting out the information, and the boy pursed his lips tightly and worked meticulously.

"This is the record of all criminals in Fuyang Town, Qi Kingdom in the past. It was handed over to the court for retrial, establishing the majesty of the Shang Kingdom, and also declaring the laws of the Shang Kingdom. Some suspected cases, even old cases, must be investigated and found out!"

"Calculate all local people with difficulties in life and give them necessary care. Also, there may be many reasons for difficulties in life. If they are bullied, seek justice for them according to law. If they are idle, put them on the blacklist.

Pay attention to the evaluation of neighbors.

This work will be completed within four months.”

"Remeasure the land and liquidate the land situation of all landlords and gentry; if it is legal, register according to law; if the means are not clear, make a decision according to law and never be ruthless.

Note that because there may be a mentality of hatred for the rich, someone may come out to slander it. You must be cautious about this matter.

We govern the country, so: we would rather let a bad person go than a good person be wronged. We would rather suffer some grievances than let innocent people suffer wronged."

Shao Lijie kept sorting out the information and constantly ordered some old officials of Qi who had been tested and stayed at the young man with respect.

While busy, someone suddenly came to report, "The great power in the central Yingzhou, the crown prince of Zhao, and the secretary of Zhao State Ji Buxian asked for a meeting."

Shao Lijie was a little stupid, Zhao State? Who doesn’t know that the largest country in Yingzhou is also one of the most powerful countries; a war with Wei State a thousand years ago, the war data between the two sides was almost popular.

Both sides used more than ten million elite soldiers, 20 million civilians, 8 million war horses, 30,000 craftsmen, and the core battlefield alone was 500 miles in radius. There were more than 20 million sets of weapons and armor, more than 3 million bales of arrows, more than 37 million stones of food and grass, and about 900 million taels of gold, five million cloth, and eight hundred thousand carts of herbs according to the price at that time.

More than 10 million casualties!

The above can still be counted, and there are more direct losses, indirect losses, and some uncountable data.

Such a war was enough to drag down ten Qi states - Qi states before industrial and commercial transformation.

Now, this powerful Zhao State has actually sent a mission to come and is still looking for yourself? You have found the wrong place!

Even though I thought so, I still met as soon as possible. After the meeting, Ji Buxian did not go around, "We wanted to visit King Xian, but because the distance was too far, we did not make an appointment in advance, so we could only take the liberty to disturb us."

So that's it. Shao Lijie reacted, "I will arrange a residence for you first, and I will inform the wise king later, and I will inform you when there is any specific news."

This is a very normal arrangement and there is nothing to be criticized for. However, Ji Buxian did not agree to let Shao Lijie arrange his residence, but insisted on living in the same place. Living in the same place can contact the outside world and facilitate inquiries.

I have no objection to you if you are willing to spend more money! Shao Lijie rolled his eyes and treated it kindly as a donkey. In fact, there is no hotel here that specializes in receiving foreign guests. The so-called arrangement of accommodation is to provide you with some friendship subsidies. Don't just count it.

Afterwards, Shao Lijie directly connected the information to one of Li Xian's personal soldiers through the Lingtong treasure mirror, Wang Cong. The maximum communication range of the Lingtong treasure mirror in the Shang King is about 100 kilometers; but there is a hidden transit station in the sky.

The visit of the Zhao envoy was definitely a big deal; Li Xian immediately consulted Xu Ren and others for discussion.

"Give them some shocking. There are not many more than 200 people. I sent three eight-engine aircraft that had just been displayed at the military parade to greet them. The faster the better, don't discuss with the other party. It is to shock the other party and show our strength!" Li Yuanming gave such an idea. But this idea was agreed by everyone.

The prince of Zhao State and the Secretary of the Secretariat Ji Buxian had just left the gate of the city lord's mansion when someone came after him, "Please stay with you, distinguished guests. Our wise king has agreed and sent a plane to greet you.

It is expected that the plane will arrive at midnight today. Please be prepared and we will wait at the City Lord’s Mansion.”

What's the situation?! The Prince of Zhao and the Secretary of the Secretariat Ji Buxian looked at each other. Damn, we just left, and later said that we had already agreed and we would send a plane to greet us?

Anyang City, the capital of the Shang Kingdom, is on the eastern seashore, and it spans 7,000 miles and 3,500 kilometers from Fuyang Town. How do you contact me at such a long distance? Even if you send a master of the God Transformation Stage to send a message, you can still need it in one hour or two hours!

After being silent for a while, Ji Buxian smiled bitterly, "Your Highness, go back and prepare, what an ingenious and powerful move!"

"Take a warning?" The prince was still confused.

"Yes, let's take the initiative! This is a means to show us the Shang Kingdom! The speed of communication is really terrifying; Your Highness, what would you say if such communication means were used on the battlefield?"

"It will be very scary!" The prince immediately became solemn.

"Yes, it will be very scary!" Ji Buxian smiled, "So I said, this is an ingenious warning. Look, the plane tonight will shock us even more."

…………

Night fell quietly, and Cai Guo faced a choice.

If the demise of Qi State had the greatest impact on which country, it was Cai State!

Qi State is much more powerful than Cai State in its heyday. Such a country will be destroyed as soon as it is said, so that the surrounding countries have no chance to reach out for rescue. When the surrounding countries obtain information and find something wrong and want to rectify the military support, Qi State has already perished!

This shock can be imagined.

Now, Jin State began to gather around the countries, obviously trying to balance the Shang Kingdom. However, at this moment, the emperor of Cai State hesitated.

"Is there still a need to persevere?" This question is not only in the heart of Emperor Cai, but also in the hearts of officials of Cai.

Qi State was completely destroyed in ten days! Is Cai State ten times weaker than Qi State still necessary to persevere?
