Chang Yuan felt that his body was trembling now, his mouth was dry, and he could only pinch his palms quietly to make him relax.

Sang Jun and Chen Wannian opposite Changyuan were even more nervous.

He quietly glanced at the figure standing outside the door. Sang Jun picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and then said softly: "The interviewer Chang Yuan, please sort out the official documents in front of him within a quarter of an hour..."

This is the first question in the Xinfeng Public Examination Interview to test the interviewer's actual office ability.

Chang Yuan looked at the bamboo slips on the table table in front of him, and picked them up and looked at them. It seemed to be the official documents from Xinfeng Township, which were about the matter of water conservancy repair in winter, but the order was already messy and he needed to organize it.

Of course this would not make him difficult. He quickly sorted out the official documents and then bowed to him: "The students have finished sorting out!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Wannian stepped forward to check the results of the other party's sorting, then nodded to Gong Yu and others on the side, signaling that the other party Changyuan's sorting correctly.

Then, the evaluation team composed of Gong Yu, Wang Ji and Yang Wangzhi lowered their heads and recorded the impression score of this son on the bamboo slips.

Sang Jun cleared his throat, and then chose a random question from the questions listed in the bamboo slips in front of him and asked: "The fake official is an official and is ordered to arrest the thieves. When it is night, the thieves are hidden in the houses. Why should the official do it?"

The meaning of this question is very simple. It can be translated as: If you become an official and are ordered to pursue a wanted criminal, you will find the whereabouts of the other party at night, but at this moment the other party fled into a residential house, what should you do?

If this question is in any dynasty in later generations, it will be a bonus question.

But in the Western Han Dynasty, it was a huge trap!

It is also one of the questions that have been asked the most people during the interview.

Chang Yuan pondered for a moment and replied, "Can the lights burn in the houses?"

Sang Jun smiled and said, "It's burning..."

"Now I guard his residence and ordered the officials to surround him and then repay Shangguan. At the same time, I asked someone to find out that the owner of the house was the thief who entered the house and asked him to open the door to greet the officials!" Chang Yuan said seriously: "If you find that the thief is holding the master hostage during this process, you will ask the officials to raise fire and attack him!"

Sang Jun nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

Even the emperor who was listening at the door nodded secretly and asked, "Who is this guy?"

Zhang Yue quickly replied, "Your Majesty, it is said that this son is Huizi, the former Han Dynasty Gong Chang's name. Your Majesty has raised him in Shanglinyuan and learned the art of civil and military affairs. He came to Xinfeng to participate in the public examination!"

When the emperor heard this, it was said that it was an orphan he adopted, and immediately smiled even happier, with pride on his face.

On one side, Zhang Yue was also very moved.

The Western Han Dynasty was definitely an alien in China's feudal history.

It is not only because the Western Han Dynasty inherited the afterglow of the Qin Empire, but it belongs to the tail of classical China.

Moreover, this dynasty has created many unique rules, both before and after.

One of them is called 'Private residences are sacred and inviolable'.

According to the Han law, the prohibited officials should not go into the house to catch people at night. If the offender is beaten and injured in the room, it is not necessary to enter the house to follow the rules.

This law was formulated based on the records in the Zhou Li. According to the Zhou Li, "Any thief army, township, and family members are not guilty of being killed."

Zheng Xuan, a great scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty, specifically mentioned when he annotated this article, "If you enter a house and a house without reason, get on a car and a boat, and pull someone to break the law, you will be killed without guilt at that time."

This shows that this system was still implemented during the Eastern Han Dynasty and was implemented thoroughly.

Very magical, right?

Is this system very similar to the Yingjiang family's law that "treating a house and killing the house"?

But you may not believe it. In this law of the Western Han Dynasty, even officials could not enter other people's houses after nightfall.

Otherwise, there may be something wrong if you beat it to death, but if you hurt it, you will admit your bad luck.

Therefore, when Han people describe a place with good security, they often describe it as not closing their doors at night.

Why don’t you close your door at night?

Because there are no criminals, people do not need to protect themselves by closing their portals.

However, this law has just been born for more than thirty years.

Before this, there were no explicit regulations, but just an unspoken rule that has become a custom.

It was not until the Gongyang School came to power that it joined forces with the Legalists to come up with such a law.

The starting point is also very touching. The Gongyang School believes that the officials who secretly ran to arrest people in the middle of the night were not just thinking about something bad.

A gentleman should arrest criminals with integrity and openness.

As for those guys who were strolling out in the middle of the night?

In the eyes of the Han people, either a thief or a robber, killing is not only innocent, but should be commended.

This is to eliminate harm for the people!

Therefore, in the Qin and Han dynasties, the people enjoy unlimited self-defense rights in their own private territories such as their homes, cars and ships.

This is also the reason why the local tyrants and wealthy businessmen in the Han Dynasty love to raise thugs. This is the same as the local tyrants of Midi always like to store a large amount of guns and ammunition at home.

But this law is too young.

Therefore, grassroots officials often ignore it in actual law enforcement.

Then, he was beaten into a pig's head by those powerful men who knew this law.

But by the same token, many people have also tasted the sweetness.

At the middle of the night, when it was dark, I ran to other people's houses under the banner of catching private wine to extort those little landlords who did not understand the law and did not know the law. This has always been a means of income-generating at the grassroots level of the Han Dynasty.

Now that Zhang Yue has taken up his new position, he certainly does not want such a shameful and unscrupulous thing under his rule.

Therefore, listing this law as the interview topic is to use this to strengthen legal publicity and eliminate some people.

The emperor was very satisfied with this setting.

Because this law was approved by him, and it was also approved by him, and the suggestion of "recommendation of armed forces" suggested by King Wuqiu Shou.

Together, the two constitute the current trend of holding weapons such as bows, crossbows, swords, etc. in the Han Dynasty society.

Now, people all over the world, even in the weak Qilu and Wuchu, are in every household, with a knife and a bow. The wealthy families even teach their children to use crossbow machines and ride and shoot.

With this system, the bravery of the Han people is superior to the past and present.

The Han army also had strong combat power.

Almost all soldiers have learned to use weapons before joining the army. All the army needs to do is to let them learn discipline and understand teamwork.

In the eyes of the emperor, Zhang Yue used this law as an interview question, which was obviously a manifestation of his loyalty to himself!

You should know that in the Han Dynasty, the word "loyalty" actually did not refer to unconditional obedience to the king.

Even the king doesn't like those stupid and loyal people, let alone scholars and officials.

Those who are loyal are to do their best.

The loyal ministers believed by the Han people were to do their best to the king and the country.

Then whether things are successful or not, whether the king listens or not, is no longer important.
