My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

"I remember that it was only in the Song Dynasty that the scholar-officials were not punished, right?"

Father and daughter were sitting in the study room communicating.

"It seems so. Dad, what do you want to say?" Ning Qingxi replied casually. She was not a history major, so she could only remember a rough idea.

"The idea that everyone is equal will definitely not work, but we can create a charter where everyone is equal under the emperor. What do you think?" Ning Changrong asked.

Ning Qingxi replaced her answer with silence.

Ning Changrong saw that she was silent and asked, "Isn't it possible?"

"Dad, I advise you to wake up. The emperor is naturally superior. The emperor's family members, his sons, his wives and daughters cannot actually be punished by law. The emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty. This is just empty talk." Ning Qingxi Road.

Ning Changrong scratched his hair that looked a bit like a chicken coop and said with a smile: "Let's do it like this! If you don't think it's okay, then this matter will definitely not be passed. Anyway, when I get the articles of association, whether His Majesty agrees or not, that's him. matter."

"And my suggestions are not too much. Even if His Majesty is unhappy, he won't do anything to me and can just get rid of this job." Ning Changrong's eyes became brighter as he spoke.

Ning Qingxi was helpless. This was a different approach, but asking her father to preside over the revision of the law was indeed too exaggerated. It was better not to harm the people.

……

After Ma Honglin arrived a few miles outside Yongcheng, he took a telescope to look at the situation ahead, and ordered to set up camp and light a fire to make food.

"Why don't we attack directly?" Ning Daniu, as Ma Honglin's personal guard, naturally followed him all the time.

"Don't you know this? I'm not bragging. My name, Ma Honglin, is famous in the south. We have already raised our banner, and now we act like we are not in a hurry to make fires and meals. There are only They will get anxious and throw themselves into disarray, and by then we will be able to capture the city without much effort."

Ning Daniu has been absorbing and learning battlefield knowledge every day since he arrived.

But he didn't just hide behind Ma Honglin. He would also go to the front line and fight with the enemy. He also accumulated a small amount of military exploits on his own. Even if it was insignificant, he was very satisfied.

In front of Yongcheng, the territory of the fourth prince of Nanchen, after seeing Ma Honglin's flag displayed in front, there was chaos immediately as he imagined.

The rich and well-connected people in the city are all busy trying to smooth over their connections and run away. As for defending the city?They have no confidence at all!

Ma Honglin relied on gunpowder to blast open countless city walls. Not only did he gain personal fame, but the name of gunpowder also shocked the world. Even ordinary people have heard of Palm Thunder.

No one thought this ruined city could be defended.

Not to mention those who were rich, powerful and well-connected, even the soldiers guarding the city wall wanted to abandon the city and escape.

"Are you going?"

"How do we go here? There is a war supervisor behind us. We will be killed if we run away."

There were two soldiers standing close to each other, whispering.

"I have agreed with the other brothers that we will kill the war officer later and then we will run away. Now we stay and defend the city. This is not defending the city. This is committing suicide. All the capable people in the city have run away. Why? Let us come here to die? Good things will not happen to us, but bad things will happen to us first. Why?"

"Okay! Then I'll follow you!"

At lunch time, the war supervisor was patrolling around when someone suddenly grabbed his neck from behind and broke his neck before he could speak.

The men behind him were all stabbed into the abdomen with knives by the soldiers beside him, and fell down without any reaction.

After killing someone, someone raised their arms and shouted, "The war supervisor is dead, brothers, run away!"

"Run for your life!"

Then the entire city wall was in chaos!

The soldiers took off their armor desperately and ran towards the city. They took their valuables and ran outside. The people who could not get out of the city gate also ran out of the city.

Before it was time to attack, there was chaos on the opposite side. Ma Honglin laughed loudly when he saw this, "Look, I knew it." Then he loudly said outside the tent, "Send the commander's order and prepare to attack the city!"

Then he strode out of the camp, looked at the people and soldiers running around in front of him, took out the binoculars on his waist and looked at the city wall. Are there any soldiers anywhere?Everyone who could run ran away.They gained a city effortlessly, and they didn't even say any threats, they just stationed and raised flags.

The Battle of Yongcheng added another stroke to Ma Honglin's glorious achievements.

Chang Yuan was holding a court meeting when he received the battle report.

The originally boring court meeting immediately became high-spirited because of the sudden good news.

"General Ma is worthy of being my brave general of Da'an! Another victory without any effort!"

"Your Majesty, the enemy has become frightened by the news and is about to conquer the entire south!"

"Long live your Majesty, God bless you!"

Congratulations from all the ministers,

"Long live Your Majesty!"

Chang Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, looking happy.

Ning Changrong was also happy after hearing this. Ning Daniu's name was in the battle report. Although Yongcheng had no resistance, there were still die-hards. Ning Daniu killed twenty enemies and was also on the battle report.

……

The meeting was over, and Ning Changrong was left behind.

Bai Yunliang and the others were all speculating whether they were talking about the law.

When he turned around and walked out, he glanced back at Ning Changrong and asked the people around him: "Master Ning has not asked you about any legal matters?"

Others replied: "No, Master Bai, I didn't hear Ning Changrong ask anything."

"Did he give up?"

Most of the neutral people are military generals, and those who are familiar with the law are Bai Yunliang's people. It can be said that most civil servants rely on Bai Yunliang. If Ning Changrong asks anyone in private, it is impossible to escape his ears and eyes.

Without asking for the result, Bai Yunliang walked out of the palace expressionlessly.

On the other side, Ning Changrong came to Chang Yuan's study.

Chang Yuan had been sitting there waiting for a long time. He was flipping through the laws and regulations that Ning Changrong had brought up, making sketches while reading them.

When Ning Changrong took refuge with Chang Yuan, he invented a quill pen. Now everyone is using it. Even Chang Yuan uses a quill pen when reviewing memorials.

Of course, for formal occasions, such as imperial edicts, a writing brush is still used.

"Is this the charter you wrote?" Chang Yuan said expressionlessly.

Ning Changrong grimaced, cupped his hands and replied: "This is indeed my idea. Your Majesty, you also know how much I am worth."

"My harem naturally has harem rules. How can it be judged by the laws of the court? This is my family matter after all." Chang Yuan said unnaturally.

After he ascended the throne, all his women gathered in his harem.

"Your Majesty is the king of a country, and family affairs are state affairs. I don't think there is any problem." Ning Changrong said bravely.

Chang Yuan's throat was choked by him, "First of all, it's my family affairs, and then the state affairs! There are still people who don't complain to officials, so why can't it be done when it comes to me?"

Ning Changrong still said that no matter how small the royal affairs are, they are still big ones, and the royal family affairs are the national affairs.

Chang Yuan didn't expect Ning Changrong to be so stubborn. If the law was revised in his way, would it be okay?
As a result, Ning Changrong got his wish and made Chang Yuan angry and gave up the job.
