Be a master through ancient times

Chu Ci can't help it, but the competition must be so unpredictable, if one side can win with overwhelming strength, it will be boring!

And, how long has it been since now?Until the last moment, no one knows what the result will be!

He picked up the question card and read the fourth question again.

"Qiqi Ai Ai refers to a person who has a mouth disease and speaks words repeatedly, so who is this allusion about? Please answer quickly!"

The students of Yuexi Mengshe held the red rope in their hands, but they couldn't pull it down no matter what.They know what this allusion means, but they don't know who it is about.

At this moment, a bell rang suddenly in the arena. Everyone looked at the student of Wei, Lin Chengyi was pulling the red rope again and again.

Some people began to sing bad words, thinking that now Dawei would have to deduct points again.Zhou Shangshu was stunned for a moment, then quickly raised the question board, and Chu Ci asked him to stand up and answer.

"Qiqi Ai'ai refers to Zhou Chang of the Western Han Dynasty and Deng Ai of the Western Jin Dynasty. Both of them suffered from mouth diseases and stuttered, so later generations put these two allusions together and called them Qiqi Ai'ai."

As soon as the correct answer was shown, all the Wei people in the square applauded.Their big Wei suffered setbacks one after another, and this time they managed to add ten points, so how could they not cheer up and praise them?

"Congratulations, the one who answered the question just now is Lin Chengyi, a student of the Imperial College. Chengyi, this question is actually very eccentric. The more familiar something is, the less noticeable it is, so many people know its meaning but don't know its source. Then you come from Where did you know this allusion?"

"Chu Siye didn't know something. The students had slurred words and slurred speech when they were young, and they were still like this when they were six or seven years old. Whenever they went out to visit as guests, they would be ridiculed by all their partners. I felt inferior for this I hated myself and refused to go out again. Later, my mother told me these two allusions, saying that although the two of them had mouth disease, they never suffered from self-sufficiency, but worked harder, and finally became a generation of famous ministers. I heard Afterwards, I was so grateful that I went to the garden every morning to read aloud, and finally, I finally learned to speak clearly. Because the two of them inspired me, students can remember so clearly."

Chu Ci originally thought that he would say which book he read it from, but he didn't expect this person's answer to be so meaningful, so he said immediately: "Whoever says an inch of grass will get three springs in return! Mother's words are full of encouragement, This made the child who couldn't speak clearly grow into such an outstanding young man. It is also because of this loving mother that Cheng Yi earned ten points for my great Wei. I suggest that everyone give this warm applause again. A loving mother!"

The emotions off the court were instantly mobilized by Chu Ci, and there was thunderous applause, everyone was moved by what Lin Chengyi said.The love of parents can be seen in the subtleties.They also inevitably thought of the earnest teachings of their parents.

"The scores in the field are even now, which shows how fierce the competition is. You should never give up until the last moment. This is also the charm of the competition. Now, please look at the fifth question..."

Chu Ci's words were naturally intended to motivate the students of the Great Wei. He had already seen that these few were a little timid and did not dare to compete.It doesn't matter if you lose the competition, but don't lose your confidence!

The five big Wei students sitting above were swept away by Chu Ci's slightly profound eyes, and they were all a little nervous. After hearing the encouragement in his words, they finally lost their frustration and timidity just now, regained their confidence, No longer care about the mistakes of one or two questions.

There are a total of [-] rush-answer questions. From the fourth question onwards, the students of the Great Wei Dynasty were like a bamboo shooter, singing all the way. Although they would be snatched by Mengshe Yueyan, they never deducted too much points.

At the end of the rush to answer the questions, Chuci reported the scores again. At this time, Mengshe had 320 points, Yueyan had 340 points, and Dawei had [-] points.

"Let us first give warm applause to the students of the Three Kingdoms on the stage, thanking them for their wonderful performances so that we can feast our eyes and learn more things at the same time." The officials have an interaction so that they don't have the possibility of being bored.

But even if he doesn't do this, everyone is very serious. It's about the face of the court. Who can not be nervous?Even those military generals are very serious. Although they have a little understanding of these things, or even don't understand them at all, this does not prevent them from looking at the scores.Every time Wei scored, their big palms crackled and clapped.

"Congratulations to the student of Wei Wei for temporarily ranking first. Next is the risk question. The group with the highest points will choose first. This question is divided into three questions, one for ten points, one for twenty points, and one for thirty points. Each country has only one chance to choose. , the corresponding points will be added for correct answers, and the corresponding points will be deducted for wrong answers. Lin Chengyi, what question do you choose here?"

The students of Dawei got together to discuss and decided to choose [-] questions.At this point they are in the lead, so they don't need to rashly choose the one with the highest score, as long as they stabilize the situation, they will definitely win.

"Okay, please show the third question of the [-]-point question." This risk question is the most difficult, so it will take a little longer, and the question board needs to be highlighted on it, so that everyone will not forget what the question is.

The question board came up soon, and it was written: Zhang San, a villager, old and poor, entered his son's house one day and night and stole a certain amount of property.Because there was a bump when he left, his son woke up, mistook him for a thief, and then beat him to death with a stick.Please draft a judgment in accordance with the "Suggestions on the Criminal Law of the Great Wei Dynasty", and the time limit is a quarter of an hour.

Soon, someone took out a piece of incense, cut off half of it and lit it, which was regarded as the start of timing.

This question can be answered by five people discussing it, because it will take a long time, so the emperor gave melon and fruit snacks so that everyone can take a rest temporarily.

Chu Ci looked at the things delivered and found that they were much better than usual.It seems that the emperor also wants to save face. It's okay to cry and be poor. Now facing these foreign envoys, if he knocks the door again, he will lose his country.

He came to the stage, picked up a piece of pastry and ate it slowly.After he finished eating, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then suddenly remembered that Kou Jing had hidden so many things from him at that time, so he turned his head and searched for Kou Jing's location.

I don't know if it was because there were too many people in the field or what, but Chu Ci couldn't find him, nor did he see Xu Qiaonan and Qin Zhao.Obviously, as the temporary masters of the Imperial College, they still have seats.

A quarter of an hour soon passed, and Chu Ci came to the stage and motioned for them to hand in the papers.The big Wei student handed over the paper with a worried expression on his face.

Chu Ci took what they wrote, quickly browsed through it, and suddenly understood it in his heart.He picked up the paper and began to read: "Zhang San's son killed the thief in the dark. Those who didn't know it were not guilty and could be forgiven, but his unfilial behavior should be punished. The son still has more money, and he doesn't want to support his father. Stealing because of poverty is considered unfilial. Killing one's father with one's own son is even more disrespectful to human relations, so Zhang San's son is sentenced to death!"

"Please show the correct answer."

The eunuch brought up the question board. The answer to this question was written by the official who asked the head of the Ministry of Punishment for sentencing when they were answering the question just now. It was written the same as him.

Just as Chu Ci was about to announce that Wei's answer was correct, and when he added twenty points, someone spoke up.

"Your Majesty the Great Wei Emperor, I think it's inappropriate. This question should not be judged like this." It was Huo Hua who spoke, and the old man stood up, "I also studied the criminal laws of the Great Wei in the past. The son doesn’t know his father, so why not deal with it according to the usual methods? The old man thinks he should be acquitted. This question is meant to be sentenced according to the criminal law of the Great Wei, why can’t it be according to the book?”

"That's right, since the title requires this, we should follow the requirements above. Dawei should be deducted [-] points!" Jiuzhu's right minister spoke again.

Zhaoqi and Langqiong followed closely behind. They both knew that if Wei was judged wrong in this question, they would lose the competition.They would of course be eager to make Wei lose face, and maybe the two countries would break off diplomatic relations because of this, and they would be even more happy to see it happen.

Dawei wants to refute, but he doesn't know where to start. The topic is indeed to say that he will be sentenced according to the "Great Wei Criminal Law Discussion", but... is the sentence judged like this?

They pressed on every step of the way, but Chu Ci pondered and did not give a judgment for a long time.

"Master Chu, why didn't you announce the result? If they didn't answer the questions, points should be deducted!"

Chu Ci shook his head: "I don't think so!"

"Master Chu, are you saying that the old man's judgment is wrong? That means that you think the book "Criminal Law" is wrong?" Huo Hua said, Prince Geluo of Monshe is pretending to be a reckless man, not Restraining Huo Hua's every step of the way is pressing, but it seems a little deliberately indulgent.

"No, Chu thinks that when the provisions of the law conflict with ethics, the sentence should not be imposed like this. There is an old saying that the law is nothing more than human feelings. This case is not a simple case of theft. It is not a simple patricide case. The criminal and the victim committed this human tragedy under the misunderstanding. It is really sad and deplorable. But to judge a case, one must analyze its cause and effect. There is only a little clue in this case. The verdict should not be given lightly. If the students are judged in accordance with Confucianism and Taoism, why would the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice make such a judgment? I would like to ask Du Mingxiang, the head of the Ministry of Criminal Justice who just answered, to come up and explain a few things."

After Du Mingxiang was invited up, he said: "This question is actually a part of the clues of a real case. It happened in Zhangjiazhuang, Mindi. As soon as the case was discovered, the local parents' officials checked everywhere, and found that this third person was an honest man. A farmer, he had a son when he was not confused, and he was very fond of him since he was a child, and he hired a wife for his son when he was sixty years old. Who knew that woman was tricky by nature, and often had quarrels with Zhang San, which made her son embarrassing. Living alone in an old house at the end of the village. In winter, Zhang San was short of clothes and food, and his son was out. He went to ask for it several times but failed, so he decided to climb over the wall at night to get it. Unexpectedly, his son had already returned , Hearing the voice in the room, he thought it was a thief, so he beat his father to death with a stick."

"Lord Huo, the cause and effect of this matter are clear. Would it be inappropriate to adjudicate his son not guilty?"

"This is clearly a crime committed by a wicked woman."

"Although there are vicious women who contribute to the flames, the root cause lies in his son. If he hadn't been upright and allowed his wife to be unfilial to his father, how could such a tragedy happen?" Chu Ci asked rhetorically.

Huo Hua was silent for a while, and Chu Ci continued:

"I am a student who is familiar with the law. I should have judged the case according to the "Criminal Law". Countless. Of course, they judged the verdict based only on these conditions this time, and it was also a mistake."

"Then according to your words, what do you think?" Huo Hua vaguely guessed what he meant when he saw that he each played fifty big boards.

"What I mean is, why don't you just score half of the points? If your envoy still thinks it's not right, we can let everyone in the field judge." Chu Ci said with a smile, Wei is a big country, so why not give up the ten points?I just hope that these students understand why they lost their ten points, and when they become officials in the future, don't be foolish officials!

Huo Hua looked at the big Wei people below, and immediately cursed in his heart.However, the verdict was indeed correct, and if he could win only ten points, then Mengshe would still have a chance.So, Howard nodded, and let the scorekeeper change Da Wei's score to 350 points.
