"This..." Yuanyou sighed, "Some people think it tastes good after eating it raw. Sometimes they take the food away."
You take one one by one, one by one, or a few people work together to get one. They think they won’t be discovered, and they should be fine if they find out?
As expected, one cannot eat too much. Zhu Qinghong stood up and returned the record to Yuan You: "The law will be promulgated tomorrow."
Before you have eaten or drank enough, you start stealing things. How can you tolerate it?
Zhu Qinghong’s eyes were sharp, just to scare the monkeys.
Yuanyou opened his mouth but said nothing.
Zhu Qinghong raised her hand, and a booklet fell into her palm, with simple laws written on it.
She handed it over, and Yuanyou quickly caught it with both hands and looked through it.
Zhu Qinghong sneered: "Steal a cabbage and chop off one of its fingers."
What?
Yuanyou raised his head in shock: "Is it too harsh? It's too cruel and may cause dissatisfaction among the people."
"Dissatisfied? Anyone who is dissatisfied will be kicked out." Zhu Qinghong said with cold eyes, "Tomorrow, I will order someone to read the law loudly at the city gate. Those who are restless will also be tortured on the spot. If you touch other people's things, you should be punished. I think
Let’s see who is dissatisfied.”
No precedent can be set.
People are best at pushing their limits. If one person does it without punishment, more and more people will follow suit.
Zhu Qinghong doesn't like white-eyed wolves. If this matter is not strangled in the cradle, the foundation will be unstable and people's hearts will fluctuate.
Yuanyou wants to persuade.
Zhu Qinghong raised his hand to stop him: "I have made up my mind. Military advisor of the Yuan Dynasty, we cannot be indecisive at this moment."
"Yes." Yuanyou lowered his head and saluted.
Only by decisive killing can unhealthy tendencies be cured.
He can't be soft-hearted, he can't be soft-hearted.
The next day, it was bright and clear.
Wei Zhou led his troops to guard the city gate.
They were very angry that someone was stealing!
As more and more people gathered together, Yuanyou unfolded the book and read loudly. The soldiers had quick eyesight and quick hands, and they were able to sneak out the few people who stole cabbage yesterday.
Those people were still smiling, not knowing that disaster was coming.
Another group of people came, and the soldiers immediately went up to arrest them, and they all kneeled on the ground.
Twenty or thirty people were detained one after another, and the people whispered. After Yuanyou finished reading, he closed the book: "These people steal cabbage, which is stealing everyone's rations. The city lord ordered: cut off one finger for each cabbage. Come,
Execution!"
A group of soldiers stepped forward, grabbed the prisoners' hands and pressed them to the ground. The prisoners panicked, cried bitterly, and struggled to beg for mercy.
The knife was just raised and fell heavily.
The prisoners screamed in pain.
The finger fell off and the blood continued to flow.
The common people turned pale with fright and retreated one after another. Someone stole two pills and naturally had two fingers cut off.
The soldiers didn't listen to their pleas for mercy at all. They raised their swords and dropped them. The ground at the gate of the city was stained with pools of blood, and fingers fell one after another.
Wei Zhou was scornful, he had known this so why did he do it in the first place. The soldiers were still filled with righteous indignation and glared at the prisoners fiercely.
Yuanyou closed his eyes and suppressed the unbearable feeling, then opened his eyes and spoke sternly: "Food belongs to everyone, no one can take it for himself. Today is just a small lesson, and next time you don't want it with your hands. I still don't thank the city lord.
magnanimity?"
The prisoners covered their hands, feeling hurt and regretful. Their fingers were cut off, and they also wanted to thank the city lord for his mercy.
The hot-blooded man threw stones at the prisoners: "You deserve to have your fingers chopped off if you steal everyone's food rations!"
After finally having food, who would want to have it stolen?
The crowd was excited and some cursed or spat.
