Chapter 701 Chongmin(2/2)
The most critical modification is that scholars break the law and commit the same crime as common people.
Before, scholars would be punished only if they violated the law against scholars. If they deal with common people, they would only be fined at most.

The result of this favoritism that has lasted for many years is that the people of Daqin will live better and better.
Not only can the whole family have enough food, but there is also surplus food at home that can be exchanged for money to purchase some property.
Such families are generally called good families.
Adult men in such a family are called good children.
It is the main source of those iron cavalry sweeping across the grasslands in the Han and Tang dynasties.

Under the Qin Dynasty's inconsistent law, becoming a deserter would implicate the whole family.
Such a good family naturally has excellent soldiers. After strict training, they are the so-called elite soldiers and soldiers on the battlefield.

Therefore, Wang Xiao’s political correctness has always been to suppress the nobles and enhance the civilians.
