Chapter 428 [End of ten chapters of the Western Regions Autonomous Region]

Bai Dong worked very hard today. He had to take a shower and change his clothes when he got up early in the morning. More than a dozen Sili officials who came from Liyang surrounded him and forced him to take a petal bath. His head was pressed into the water until the fragrant water came out. He also had to set up more than a dozen branches of incense as thick as his arms to surround him... This was not the case, it was like a pig. It was not over. He had to wear a black red robe and a crown several feet tall. There were nine-shaped beads hanging on the long stretched front crown plate. His head jingled and jingled. More than half of his vision was blocked by this thing, and everything was blurry...

He shook his head with some difficulty. This was too heavy... It was just a ritual of the princes. It is said that the emperor had twelve beads. Oh my god, no wonder that all dynasties were prone to being foolish in all dynasties. It would be strange if this thing was worn for a long time and could it be curious if it was not cervical spondylosis. Everyone was not incapable of blood supply in the brain. But this is etiquette, and the Western Lord Baizi also had to abide by it. Now I don’t know how many people envy, jealous and hate him. If he dared not to wear it, he would definitely be drowned by saliva.

Dongyang Jun, who had just had a full meal of mutton and hot milk tea, was reading the Emperor's Order aloud, and his mouth was filled with a strong smell of mutton. Dongyang Jun, who had not enjoyed this feeling for a long time, was very energetic today, his face was red like a small apple. No matter whether the Rong kings in the palace could understand his elegant voice or elegant words, he was still reading the Emperor's Book in the most elegant posture and the most charming voice... The more I couldn't understand, the better, so that the four barbarians could be respected, and it was time for these Rong people in the Western Regions to feel the etiquette and culture of our great country.

Is this the rhythm of translation that is exhausted? Not to mention that the Rong Kings were staring at each other, even Bai Dong felt dizzy when he heard it. He pricked up his ears and listened for a long time before he could understand 300% of the content. It was nothing more than the Emperor Zhou praised him for his contribution to the border, which was the glory of China. What are the strange words such as "under the sky, there are heroes, heroes in the west, and strengthen our country's style"... In short, it was the cheap father-in-law of the Zhou emperor who was bothering. He did not hesitate to use a thousand words to do it... He praised his son-in-law who had not yet arrived, and he was specially awarded the Nine Talisman Crown, making him on an equal footing with the princes of various countries. This was a brutal in the Zhou Dynasty. The domestic marquis were domestic marquis. Although he was named a marquis, he was actually a retainer of the princes. Only the princes had the crown of Nine Talisman Crown. Where can a retainer be qualified to wear it? But now the Emperor of Zhou wants him to wear it, but it won’t be possible if he doesn’t wear it! Bai Dong suddenly felt that the nine talisman Crown on his head was getting heavier and heavier. His neck seemed to be about to break...

It was finally easy to wait until Dongyang Jun finished speaking, it was Fan Qiang's turn to read Ying Quliang's Jun's book; Bai Dong's Nine-Shaped Crown was just an honor after all, and after all, it was Qin Chen. Ying Quliang didn't care about how many colorful beads hung under your hat brim, and could still sit in Liyang and point fingers.

Xijun and Taifu were already the best, so this official could not be sealed. Bai Dong was also a well-known rich man in the world, so it would be fine to give gold and copper. Ying Quliang's reward was very simple, just a basket of cracked millet noodles and a sweater woven by Bu Rongyi; millet noodles and steamed buns imply that Qin would not forget the great contribution he made. The sweater was a typical "madam policy" and the colors were very trendy. It was invented by Bu Rongyi himself, and it was said that he could not even have bitter wine. Seeing such a simple reward, all the retainers in Xijun's palace were a little incomprehensible, and Rongwang was also talking about why Qin was so stingy? Xijun even caused the power of heaven and earth when he destroyed the Persian army this time. It must be an envoy sent by the God of Light. For the messenger of God, it was not enough to thank the messenger of God. What is a sweater? Even they may not be able to take a look at it.

Bai Dong was happier when he received Ying Quliang's reward than getting gold and silver. Ying Quliang brought not only sweaters and cracked corn buns, but also a book of Jun who agreed to the autonomy of the Western Regions, which is what he is most looking forward to at the moment.

When the Western Lord built a city, the Western Regions naturally became the Bai family's fiefdom, but this fiefdom also had to abide by the Qin laws. Bai Dong could establish a private army and collect taxes, but he had to respond to the monarch's conscript at any time. According to modern legal professionals, he had to assume obligations while enjoying power, and had no legislative power. There was no problem with taking obligations, but now the Western Regions are still a mess? The Rong people of all races have practiced customs and habits that have been passed down for hundreds of years. It is really difficult to make them suddenly accept the Qin laws.

Not to mention in the pre-Qin era, even in the new China two thousand years later, the country should fully consider the customs and habits of ethnic minorities and formulate a series of autonomous region laws to establish autonomous regions, autonomous prefectures, and autonomous counties... The purpose is to integrate all ethnic groups to the greatest extent, seek common ground while reserving differences to achieve great national unity. Fifty-six ethnic groups sing a song together, the sun in the east rises in the Liyang in the east, and Yingquliang is our great savior...

This advanced political system and legal norms that have been verified by later generations have been proven by practice. Of course, Bai Dong also proposed this idea to Ying Quliang at the first time. Now it seems that he has received strong support from Ying Quliang. Faced with criticism from the ministers in the court, Ying Quliang directly decided that Zuo Shuchangfu and Xijunfu have been appointed, and will improve the legal construction of the autonomous region and quickly establish the first autonomous region in the history of the Qin State.

He exchanged a look with Wei Yang who came from Liyang. Bai Dong respectfully took Ying Quliang's letter and conveyed the good news from Liyang to the Rong kings of all races. Wei Yang then issued the laws of the autonomous region.

Wei Yang was very happy today. Since he came to Qin, this was the first time that he had no differences with Bai Dong and was willing to devote himself to doing things. Compared with the reforms he implemented in Qin, the construction of the autonomous region's legal system was regarded as an unprecedented change that could shake the Legalists. What did he do as a famous Legalist scholar who worked hard to achieve? It was not money and wealth, but a sense of accomplishment! Just think about it and make him excited... The concept of the autonomous region was something that Guan Zhong and Bai Li Xi had never proposed. Although Bai Dong proposed it first, he was one of the authors of the autonomous region's legal system. With this, Wei Yang would occupy a world in the history of Chinese Legalists in the future, and future generations would admire and worship him as if they were admired by Guan Zhong.

"General Principles for the Civil Affairs of the Rong people in the Western Regions", "Military Order for the Rong people in the Western Regions", "Military Law on the Transfer of Rong people in the Western Regions", "Compulsory Education Law on the Rong people in the Western Regions", "Marriage Law on the Rong people in the Western Regions"...

There are five decrees at the legal level alone, and there are some unilateral regulations. The establishment of these decrees is determined by the information of various ethnic groups collected by Jing Jian and others in the Western Regions. Wei Yang personally drafted the first draft, the second draft, and finally the final draft was made by Bai Dong. In the process of establishing the Western Regions Autonomous Region laws, Ying Quliang gave Bai Dong enough trust to the old Qin Dynasty to look at him. As long as he nodded, it would be fine, but there was no need to go through the court discussion.

While reading these laws and regulations, Wei Yang went to see Bai Dong at the same time. This time he was really convinced. In the past, he always thought that Bai Zi made first-class money and was good at it, and he also used some strange and lewd methods to please the emperor. After experiencing the Battle of Wei and the Western Regions, he gradually admired Bai Zi. When he agreed on the laws of the Western Regions Autonomous Region, the legal suggestions made by Bai Zi were extremely shocked. For example, the general rules of the civil affairs of the Rong tribe in the Western Regions not only resolved various disputes between the people, but also fully respected the national habits of all ethnic groups. If it could be passed, perhaps the Qin Dynasty could follow the example in the future!

There was no civil and commercial law in the pre-Qin era, but since Bai Dong proposed the trademark and patent law, the budding of civil and commercial law began to appear in this era. This time, when Bai Dong formulated the laws of the autonomous region, he boldly introduced theories of civil laws in later generations, such as personal rights, property rights, and "neighbor rights" and "property rights" closely related to personal and property rights... For the Western Regions, where the people's customs are strong, they often cause various disputes, the issuance of these laws is simply a timely rain.

This is actually a kind of attempt by Bai Dong. Radical proposal of these concepts in the Chinese mainland, where the monarchy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, is simply shaking the monarchy, which is similar to seeking death. You can try to promote these advanced laws in the Western Regions political system based on tribal and tribal alliances, and have some primitive communist characteristics, but it has the possibility of realization. With the prestige of the light messenger, you will not be strongly opposed by the tribal leaders and King Rong. Once they taste the benefits of the new laws, they will become supporters first. After all, they are the people who have the most cattle, sheep and property, and the new laws will also protect them. With the protection of the laws, even if they are replaced by new leaders and kings in the future, they can still protect existing interests.

The "West Region Rong Clan Migration Law" stipulates the various generous treatments of the Rong people in the Western Region to migrate Qin. Their property in the tribe will be preserved. At the same time, they can also obtain a fixed house, civilian status and priority qualifications for military and employment in Qin. This is a good thing that has been verified by time, and many Rong people who went to Qin can prove this.

The "Military Law of the Rong Clan of the Western Regions" stipulates the conditions and treatment of the Rong people joining the Qin army. Any man over the age of seventeen can join the army, which is two years older than the minimum recruitment period of the Qin people. Although it is also a recruitment, the Rong people of the Western Regions can be exempted from all taxes during their military service. For example, if someone joins the army at home, then all the income they earned in that year can not be paid to the Xijun Mansion and Qin State. If there is a share that needs to be paid to the tribe, the Xijun Mansion and Qin State will also give a certain proportion of subsidies! Oh my God, is there anything better than this? The Rong people are no longer as good as the old Qin people who are used to stable life. They will fight against the heaven and earth, fight against foreign tribes, and fight against wolves at the end of their lives. Often, the thirteen or fourteen-year-old children are already soldiers galloping on the grassland. Anyway, they have to fight to the death. It is better to join the Qin army. Not only do they care about food and clothing, but also make meritorious service.

If you have titles and salary, you can also reduce taxes for your family. What else should you consider? The Kings of Rong of the Western Regions will not worry about anything. The decree also stipulates that more than one-third of the men who participated in the Qin army in a clan should not join the Qin army. Moreover, the more soldiers of the tribe joined the Qin army, the more rewards Lao Qin would have to the tribe. This reward includes the middle and high titles of the twenty-sixth grade of the old Qin. After the decree is promulgated, these grass-headed kings may become real nobles recognized by the Zhou royal family! This is a noble... The Rong kings of all races in the pre-Qin era did not have the mighty talent and strategy of Temujin. It is a supreme glory for them to be recognized by China. Moreover, the Western King of Qin is not an ordinary Chinese nobleman. He is a hero who saved the grassland and an envoy sent by the God of Light. They believe in this.

When Wei Yang began to announce the "Compulsory Education Law of the Western Regions", the Rong people of all races were moved to cry... Reading! What a sacred thing? Even with the Chinese, the scholars were as rare as the hair on the heads of vultures, let alone on the Western Regions grasslands? In the past, in the eyes of Chinese, they were all Rong Di members who were not etiquette and disrespectful to the kings. But who knew how extravagant it was to read on the grassland? Now some tribes still have parchment books left by their ancestors, and there are only the simplest Chinese records in the tribe, but in their eyes it was like

It's like a holy book! Whoever doesn't want his tribe to study is a bastard, but where can I find a gentleman? Where can I buy expensive Jianshu bamboo swords? I heard that a great Confucius came from mainland China, who yelled "there is no difference in education" every day, but why didn't he come to the Western Regions to do something without difference? Or did Xijun remember that when they come, they would build schools for us for free and hire teachers. Even the famous Fengming Academy would have to establish a villa in the Western Regions! It's so warm and touching. Xijun is the messenger of God, and he is bringing light to the grassland!

Without anyone to summon, dozens of Kings of the Western Regions spontaneously walked to Bai Dong and expressed their respect and admiration to the Western King with the highest etiquette among their clans; some stroked their chests with one hand and bowed deeply, some raised their hands high, singing hymns that no one could understand; some people sang while crying, as if they had met their own father.

Bai Dong felt a little embarrassed, so he walked down from the throne himself and hugged these ethnic minority brothers: "No one is allowed to leave today. I have prepared the fine wine of Qin. Everyone will not return without getting drunk!" (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
