Chapter 311 I am not a saint, I am a human being
"Isn't this good?"
The Yue woman didn't understand what was wrong with the fact that Qin's public security was much better than that of other countries.
If Baiyue could have a stable situation like Qin, she would be extremely happy.
"Everything has two sides. Yin alone cannot grow, and Yang alone cannot grow. There is no such thing as only benefits without disadvantages. The bandits disappeared from Qin territory, but the price paid was the numbness of the people. High-pressure policies suppress people's hearts, not just the dark side, but also the light behind the darkness. If you live just for the sake of living, what is the difference between you and the animals that eat raw meat and drink blood?"
The Yue girl thought about the fatigue that was often seen on the Qin people's faces and their hurried footsteps, and nodded as if she understood.
She has a clear mind and can understand a lot of random things very quickly, but when it comes to important matters like governing a country, she is completely clueless.
"The Qin laws were harsh and harsh. In times of chaos, they could protect oneself and kill the enemy. This is why we should use harsh laws in times of chaos. But now is not a time of chaos, it is a peaceful era. There is no survival crisis. Compared with the destruction of expanding territory, the most important thing to pay attention to now is to stabilize the basic foundation. People cannot live like non-human beings all the time."
The Yue girl turned her head, with stars shining in her eyes, and her admiration even exceeded her love.
"My husband is a saint."
Ying Chengjiao lowered his head and pecked Yue girl's lips. Originally, he just wanted to taste her briefly, but Yue girl took the initiative to ask for more, and the situation turned into a verbal battle that lasted for a cup of tea.
After their lips parted, Ying Chengjiao stared at Yue Nu closely with lust in his eyes.
The Yue girl looked back without avoiding, the flame of lust in her eyes was as fierce as a warm bonfire in the ice and snow, burning herself to provide warmth.
"Food and sex are human nature. I am deeply trapped in this path. A saint would not be so impatient. I am just a boy who does things based on my likes and dislikes. Don't think so highly of me. If I were born in a humble family, even survival would be a problem. I would definitely be worse than Marx and Lenin. He was able to seize the opportunity to change his fate, but I can only delete the file and start over."
"I don't believe it. No matter where you are or what you are, your character will not change. With this character, you will eventually be able to do what you have today."
"Then you are wrong. Some people are born in Rome, while others are born as cattle and horses. To cattle and horses, Roman knowledge is useless."
[What kind of horse is Rome? What kind of horse is a cow horse? Why are people born as horses? 】
The Vietnamese girl's eyes were big and full of doubts.
Ying Chengjiao smiled knowingly.
As long as he often says things that no one can understand, he can remind himself that he is a time traveler who has received modern education, and will not sink into the power, beauty and money that are within his reach.
With a little force in his arms, Ying Chengjiao held the beauty tightly in his arms, sniffed the fragrance of the Yue girl's hair and said:
"A slave, even if he has thousands of ravines in his heart, has ten or a hundred times more talent than me. If he is not a superior, he cannot change the world. Just like Baili Xi, without Qin Mugong, he would die silently, like a weed.
“When you are poor, you can take care of yourself; when you are rich, you can help the world. This is because the poor can only take care of themselves. How can they think of other things before they have enough food? The rich have no worries about food and clothing because they have talent, power, and wisdom, which enables them to help the world.
"If a rich man falls into the situation of a poor man, it is good enough if he can keep himself safe. Just like if I were a slave now, you would think I could start a peasant uprising, but in fact, it would be a luxury for me to survive. The eight words 'Are kings, princes, generals and ministers of different species?' are useless for peasants to shout.
"Chen Sheng, courtesy name She, this kid has a name, a surname, and a courtesy name. He also knows how to use ghosts and gods to hide books in the belly of a fish, and can even say things like 'How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?' If he were not a noble, his head would be plucked off and used as a kickball.
"Real peasants face the earth and their backs to the sky. I'm afraid they don't even know what a swan is. Haha, the peasant uprisings recorded in history books are just a reform movement led by the nobles, just like what I did in Han."
The Vietnamese girl nodded heavily.
In fact, she didn't understand most of it. She just knew that her husband needed someone to talk to and listen carefully, regardless of whether he understood or not.
The Yue woman, with her world-class perception, could clearly sense that as her husband continued to speak, the pressure buried in her heart continued to be released, like the Yellow River releasing its flood.
Ying Chengjiao sneered and continued his story.
"I'm not that noble, nor do I have that big of a heart. With this position, most things in the world are within my reach, so I have to find something to do, right? Things that are too easy to get are not fun at all. In a sense, I am just like Guiguzi, both of us are people who enjoy fun."
"no the same."
The Yue girl flatly denied it.
"Everyone I've met wants to be king and dominate, and their lust is hard to satisfy. None of them is like my husband."
Ying Chengjiao smiled.
"Because if I want to be a king, I can be a king. This is too easy for me."
The Yue girl raised her eyebrows.
Although it was the same action, in Ying Chengjiao's eyes, when Gai Nie did it, it looked extremely fierce, while when Yue Nu did it, it looked heroic and beautiful.
"Why do you always slander yourself? There have been so many monarchs in the world, but apart from Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang, who is like you?"
Ying Chengjiao smoothed his wife's brows.
"This is not self-defamation, this is self-awareness. If one day the reform will endanger my life, I will stop it immediately. The higher you praise me, the harder I will fall. If that day really comes, I hope you will not be disappointed in me."
The Yue girl lowered her eyes slightly to avoid Ying Chengjiao's gaze.
"What if one day my husband finds out that I have done something unforgivable?"
Ying Chengjiao broke the head of the Yue girl.
"You mean, Teng?"
The Yue girl's already big and bright eyes suddenly opened even wider.
"My husband already knows?"
Ying Chengjiao rolled his eyes.
"Nonsense, this is not a secret. You killed Teng and went to Zhao Ji with his head. It was very fair and aboveboard. My spy is not blind."
When the Yue girl saw Ying Chengjiao's behavior, she knew that he probably didn't take the matter to heart. The huge stone that had been hanging in her heart fell heavily to the ground.
She threw herself into Ying Chengjiao's arms, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Ying Chengjiao stroked its back gently, as if stroking the fur of a wronged kitten.
"Everyone has to pay for their own choices, don't take it personally."
"If I had known that my husband didn't care, I would have told him a long time ago."
"It's too early to still care."
Ying Chengjiao kissed the pretty face of the beauty in his arms.
"If you had said you killed Teng when we first met, I would have shot you and buried you with Teng."
Growing up in Baiyue, a place that is called a country but is actually more like a primitive tribe, Yue women are very good at fighting and killing.
That's why when Ying Chengjiao said such unromantic words to her, the Yue girl, who had never been in love, was not angry, but curious.
She tilted her head back, with curiosity and relief on her pretty face.
"Why is that? This doesn't make sense."
Ying Chengjiao smiled.
"I didn't like you at that time. I told you I'm not as noble as you think. I'm not a saint. I just have double standards when it comes to people I like."
The Yue girl knew that this was wrong, but she had no intention of correcting Ying Chengjiao. The admiration in her eyes gradually turned into affection.
The saint who risked his life for the people was the Ying Chengjiao in her imagination. The real Ying Chengjiao was a person with double standards and contradictions, who made saving his own life his primary goal.
She offered her red lips, and gently stroked her clothes with her bare hands, unbuttoning them and opening them wide. She grabbed Ying Chengjiao's hand and put it in, letting the wolf in.
Apart from doing this, Vietnamese women who have no experience in love don’t know how to express their love.
Respect the saints and love people.
The venue limited the two people's performance, and the carriage did not shake at all.
Ying Chengjiao relied on the legal entry this time and shamelessly took his hands out to feel the joy that he could not control. He played with them while saying:
"After the reform, the no longer harsh Qin laws will allow people to live like human beings, but it will also allow those sewer rats that were once extinct to come out. In this world, there is black and white, light and darkness. If the towers are not abolished, they will become the nests of these sewer rats."
The girl bit her lower lip, endured the strange feeling and said with a red face:
"Why is this so?"
Ying Chengjiao listened to Yue Nu's somewhat rapid breathing, and suddenly exerted a little more force, causing Yue Nu, who was caught off guard, to tremble slightly, and teased:
"Are you talking about yourself or the tower?"
After driving the culprit out of the country, Yue Nu closed her clothes and glared at Ying Chengjiao:
"Tower!"
Ying Chengjiao smacked his lips with a feeling of unsatisfied taste.
"Because they seek profit. Ever since Guan Zhong invented the tower, it has been a huge den of money. It is not for production, and the mice who want to get something for nothing will not let go of this granary. You have to believe that if women engage in prostitution as a voluntary and legal act, the tower will continue to operate.
"Then after the reform, there will be many women who volunteered. There is no doubt that this is an infringement. The guests of the tower have always been powerful nobles. Men, when doing that kind of thing, can say anything. Qingmei got a lot of information from this.
"In this way, the rats who let women be willing to serve as customers will not only be able to connect with these nobles, but some of them who are not afraid of death may even encounter cowardly nobles and threaten them. If these rats with bad minds gain power, it will be a disaster for the world."
The girl thought for a moment and said:
"The Qin State is the only government institution in the world. If this is extended to other places, and the law makes forcing women to become prostitutes a severe punishment, will it solve your husband's worries?"
The Vietnamese girl couldn't think of anything else.
But when it comes to this kind of thing, the successor of Yuenu Sword knows it all at once.
Every Yue woman must learn the bloody history of Yuenu Mountain, and have an acquired sensitivity to such things.
“It does solve most of it.”
Ying Chengjiao looked at the Yue girl with slight surprise.
He just wanted to find someone to talk to, but he didn't expect that the girl next to him who was the best swordsman in the world could actually discuss with him.
Severe punishment is life-threatening, and government agencies cut off their interests. Both can ensure the relative purity of the building - to make money, recruit talents, and relieve excess energy.
"But what about the nobles of the three great families? What if the nobles personally attack Loutai? The interpretation of the law lies in the hands of my brother, but the execution is in the hands of the nobles. If they want to attack Loutai, they will force some women to volunteer every year. What you said cannot be solved, just like now."
The Yue girl nodded angrily. She hated the three major families so much that her hatred was even greater than that of Ying Chengjiao.
"Besides, this is not actually the biggest harm. If the towers are not demolished and prostitution is legalized, the biggest harm caused after the Qin law is relaxed is the social atmosphere. It is not easy for people to survive nowadays. If they don't have spare money, they can't go to the towers. When the new Qin law is promulgated and people have spare money, will they go to the towers? They will definitely. That's how men are.
"As time passed, when prostitution became more common among the people, being a prostitute, like being a weaver, would become a means of making a living. Because this behavior was in accordance with Qin law, under the subtle influence of the law, being a prostitute would become a very common thing and would not be discriminated against. Imagine a woman who injured her hand weaving and recuperated at home.
"Her husband said that the family couldn't make ends meet, so she became a prostitute to supplement the family income . Whether it was the woman's son or her parents, they all regarded this as a common thing. Isn't this a terrible world? Once this kind of social atmosphere is formed, it will have a huge impact on the entire Qin State. It is easy to lose morality, but it is difficult to find it again."
The Vietnamese girl didn't quite believe it.
Chinese morality has been passed down for thousands of years. Even Gou Jian, the King of Yue who was hated the most by the Yue Girl Sword lineage, did not dare to openly capture women and bring them into the mountains to provide sexual pleasure for his Yue soldiers.
"Is my husband exaggerating a little?"
"Exaggeration? No, this is a fact that is bound to happen."
Ying Chengjiao said with certainty.
Ying Chengjiao will never forget that in his previous life, he would help an old man up when he saw him fall down and do good deeds.
The education that two generations had received for decades collapsed in an instant under the sentence "Why should I help someone if you didn't fall?" This sentence set the trend back by several decades, and those who dared to help the elderly were all those who had mines at home.
In fact, the student did hit the old man.
The problem lies with the judge. Helping the elderly is a good moral character and we have been taught this since childhood. How can we make a presumption of guilt?
There have also been many real cases of people who helped the elderly but were blackmailed - the people who helped lost everything, and the blackmailed the elderly made a lot of money. Even if it was finally discovered that the elderly were blackmailing, there was no severe punishment.
Laws have a huge impact on the country and play a guiding role in social trends.
Although there was a saying in the past that people laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes, in reality prostitutes are meant to be laughed at. Few people dare to say that being a prostitute is good in public. This is the role of the law.
Ying Chengjiao was absolutely sure of one thing, if pornography had not been banned in the previous life and had become a legal project, then the whole society would be like those five words, laugh at the poor but not at prostitution.
If prostitution becomes a high-paying, legal and formal profession, the social atmosphere will undergo a greater transformation after the old man's fall. Ying Chengjiao does not want to see such a world, even if it is after his death, even if he will never see it in his lifetime.
