Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

"You should know the University of Hong Kong! It was founded in 1910 and has a history of 60 years. It is definitely one of the top universities in Hong Kong, especially in the judicial field. It is more authoritative. Therefore, the University of Hong Kong is also called the Ivy League in Asia. "

Rosen said this, pressed the internal phone, and ordered two cups of coffee.

After the female secretary brought the coffee in, she continued to say to Du Yongxiao: "You lost to Li Luofu this time, except that he had the support of the judicial boss Bailiqu behind him, and it was nothing more than qualifications and academic qualifications. Things like qualifications take time. Come on, the academic qualifications require you to go to university."

Bailiqu?

Although Du Yongxiao received the news that it was precisely because of the big boss Bailiqu behind the scenes that the Independent Commission Against Corruption took advantage of Li Luofu, hearing it from Rosen's mouth still made Du Yongxiao panic.

"Your alma mater, Huangren Middle School, is very good, but it's a pity that your academic qualifications stop there, unless -" Rosen Liangliang held the admission notice in his hand, "You go to this university to study! Of course, the so-called study here is just a procedure. You are the Chief Superintendent and the police force needs you!”

Rosen didn't say it clearly, but Du Yongxiao already knew that in his previous life, he spent money to buy a diploma. He paid some money, went to school to get a name, showed his face during the exam, and then he could graduate smoothly.

From the looks of Rosen, this notice was very valuable, and Du Yongxiao didn't need to do anything. He only needed to go to school to register, click Mao, and occasionally attend a few classes.

really--

"Du, you are a smart person. This is the place I managed to get for you. It will definitely be good for improving your academic qualifications!"

"After all, within our police force, not to mention the Commander-in-Chief of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, even those who can serve as Chief Superintendent are all highly educated. Cambridge University, Birmingham University, etc. are everywhere!"

What Rosen said was very straightforward, that is, the superiors disliked Du Yongxiao for his low academic qualifications. Even if Du Yongxiao spoke English better than an authentic Londoner, he was still weak in terms of academic qualifications.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you for your kindness!" Du Yongxiao smiled and put away the admission notice.

Rosen was very satisfied with Du Yongxiao's actions. He took a sip of his coffee and said, "You are a smart man, Du! You are still very young and you will have many opportunities to advance in the future! So, you don't need to be too anxious or discouraged. I believe You, your future is definitely bright!”

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly. It was impossible for these British guys to play tricks on him and send him away with a mere college notice.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you for your encouragement!"

Rosen thought he could send Du Yongxiao away in this way, and was about to issue an eviction order.

Du Yongxiao took advantage of the situation and took out the joint petition, handed it over and said: "Sir, I know you have always supported me, but there is a small matter here that I may need your help with!"

"Oh, what's the matter?" Rosen pretended to be generous and took it in his hand.

"It's about the abolition of Qing laws and regulations!"

"Poof!" Rosen almost spit out the coffee in his mouth.

Ever since Hong Kong was invaded and ruled by the British, it has been implementing two legal systems. One is the "Qing Law Order" that Hong Kong people are accustomed to, which mainly solves problems among Chinese people; the other is the "British Empire Code", which mainly solves problems among the British themselves. question.

"The Laws and Regulations of the Qing Dynasty" began in the first year of Shunzhi. After the efforts of the emperors and ministers of Shunzhi, Kangxi and Yongzheng, it was revised by Emperor Qianlong and officially "published at home and abroad, and will be followed forever", forming the basic code of the Qing Dynasty.

In Hong Kong during the British era, British law was mainly applied. However, due to geographical differences, some cases that occurred in Hong Kong did not have British laws to rely on, so the "Qing Laws and Regulations" continued to be the reference basis for Hong Kong to judge such cases.

The Qing Dynasty's laws and regulations are also a thorn in the throat for the British, but this thorn is also the magic needle that protects Hong Kong's tranquility for hundreds of years.

In the 1920s, 1930s, and 1950s, members of the Legislative Council proposed to abolish many old Qing laws and regulations and unify them in accordance with British legal procedures, so that Hong Kong could be brought to Britain more formally. A civilized, democratic, free world.

However, in July 1925, the abolition of the Qing Law was proposed for the first time, triggering a fishermen riot in Kowloon, because according to the Qing Law, fishermen in the Kowloon area had fishing rights in the Kowloon waters, and people in other areas were not allowed to participate.

In March 1939, the abolition of the Qing Laws was proposed for the second time. This time, people in the New Territories rioted. Because this area of ​​​​the New Territories belongs to the aborigines, they have "Ding Rights" according to the Qing Laws. As long as a boy is born to a family, A boy could own a piece of land.

In September 1955, the abolition of the Qing laws was proposed for the third time. This time, all Hong Kong people were protesting, because this time the British Hong Kong government did not recognize private school qualifications, and wealthy people hiring teachers to teach their children were considered white teachers!

It can be said that these three riots and demonstrations made the entire British Hong Kong government very anxious. In the end, it took a lot of manpower and material resources to suppress these things.

As for those members who originally wanted to make a splash by proposing the abolition of the Qing laws and regulations, all of them had no good results. They either lost their qualifications as members, or they became cowards and no longer dared to propose such a shocking bill.

Now--

Du Yongxiao actually handed such a hot potato to Rosen's hand. It would be strange if Rosen wasn't scared to death.

"Don't be nervous, sir! I know what you are worried about, why don't you take a look first!"

"No, Du, this question -"

Rosen wanted to refuse, but Du Yongxiao didn't give him a chance and helped him open the file himself.

Immediately, a line of words came into view.

"Abolish the laws of the Qing Dynasty - the polygamy system!" Rosen was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that all of them would be abolished, but it turned out that he chose one of them.

In fact, there are not many Qing laws and regulations in Hong Kong now, but this "polygamy" is really sensitive.

Rosen frowned.

As a person from the British civilized world, Rosen has always wondered why a place like Hong Kong still retains the bad habit of "polygamy"?

In fact, Du Yongxiao knew more clearly that the British Hong Kong government was actually preparing to pave the way for the abolition of the Qing law. Especially as the boss of the Justice Bureau, Bailiqu was sharpening his sword and preparing to use this abolition to win greater gains. reputation.

If normal procedures in the previous life were followed, next year, in 1971, polygamy would be officially abolished!

For this reason, Bailiqu has left its name in the annals of history!

So now, excuse me!

If you block my Independent Commission Against Corruption, I will block your repeal order.

Thinking of this, Du Yongxiao smiled and pushed the document in his hand into Rosen's arms: "For me, this is an opportunity; for you, why not?"

Rosen's eyes flickered.

Du Yongxiao added: "Almost all the people signing on it are big guys from all walks of life in Hong Kong!"

Rosen looked -

Boss Huo, charter boat king, Macau gambling king, etc.!

His eyes started to light up!

Seeing that the time was right, Du Yongxiao patted him on the shoulder: "If you want to leave a name in history, why should you fear the storm?"
