Chapter 104: Contract for Fairness (Part 2)

Next, under Yan Fei's offensive and Yao Shuxiang's testimony, Cui San's case was quickly closed.

However, even if a vicious person committed a serious crime, Liyue's interrogation hall would still gather some people to discuss the case and finally reach a verdict that everyone felt was appropriate.

Because he was in the spectator seat, Mo Yu walked out before the court closed, raised his head and looked at the sky outside, and his heart had a better understanding of the law.

When he just became Ning Guang's student, he asked her a question: As a "Tianquan Star" in charge of the law... how do you understand the law?

After Cui San's case was over, Mo Yu felt that he had a little more feelings about the law...

"Liyue is called the country of contracts... The laws here are naturally a kind of contract."

"In my opinion, the law is a contract with rigid constraints. If people violate the contract, they will be punished by the rigid constraints, and within the constraints... people's behavior is unrestricted."

"The contract not only creates fairness for transactions between merchants, but also creates fairness for the people living in Liyue, right?"

At that time, Mo Yu's understanding of business and law was not as profound as it is now. After experiencing Xumi, Fontaine, and Mondstadt, he gradually understood the meaning of Ningguang's words.

"The contract creates fairness..." Mo Yu sighed.

The existence of the contract creates equal trade between countries, the existence of the contract creates the rules that should be followed in diplomacy, and the existence of the contract creates how disputes between people should be judged.

The rules of the world, whether natural rules or elemental alchemy rules, aren't these also a kind of "contract"? Once people want to jump out of this rule, what awaits them... is the "rigid punishment" from the world.

The best example is... "Kan Ruiya".

Before Mo Yu could continue thinking, his shoulder was suddenly patted, and then a familiar female voice sounded in his ear.

"What are you thinking about?"

Mo Yu subconsciously turned around and saw Ye Lan with a slight smile on her face.

"Nothing... I just suddenly felt a little emotional..." Mo Yu smiled and shook his head, saying an ambiguous sentence as a reply.

Ye Lan blinked slightly when she heard this, then stretched her waist and whispered to Mo Yu: "You made me tired last night... I was tossed all night..."

Hearing Ye Lan's words that were very easy to cause misunderstandings, Mo Yu's mouth twitched constantly, and then he sighed and asked: "Sister Ye Lan... The evidence of Cui San's dealings with the "Faint People" was found by you last night, right?"

Ye Lan snapped her fingers when she heard this, then nodded in approval and suddenly asked... a nonsensical question.

"Have you had lunch?"

"No... First there was the "Sending Immortals Ceremony", then the "Seven Stars Meeting", and then that Yao Shuxiang was the witness I found, so I came here to listen... I didn't eat a single bite..."

"Let's go, it's almost time for dinner, let's go to Wanmin Hall, we can talk while walking."

"Let's... go."

......

Mo Yu and Ye Lan walked side by side on the street, both of them were observing the changes in Liyue.

However... Mo Yu was observing the difference between the behavior of the people of Liyue and usual after they knew that the emperor's soul had returned to heaven, while Ye Lan... was trying to get information.

However, they also knew that this place was not a suitable place for talking, and the two of them waited tacitly until they walked to the "Wanmin Hall", ordered their meals, and sat down before they started talking.

Looking at Xiangling who was walking around the tables, Moyu sighed softly: "Xiangling is still as busy as before, and the people of Liyue are still as busy as before... like the craftsmanship of "Wanmintang"."

"It seems... the departure of the emperor only brought them grief, but did not take away their courage to move forward..."

Ye Lan, who was making tea, laughed when she heard this, and then said playfully: "Isn't this what you have always expected? The era of human rule."

Moyu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then explained: "That's right... but the era of human rule only means not relying on immortals and emperors, not forgetting, that's all... it's a bit too early to say this now."

"Indeed, let's see if the people of Liyue will have any spontaneous memorial activities during this period next year." Ye Lan took a sip of tea and said softly.

"By the way, Sister Ye Lan, did you have anything to say just now?" Moyu asked.

Ye Lan gently put down the teacup in her hand, her expression gradually became serious, and she asked Mo Yu: "When I came here with you just now... I heard a few merchants talking."

"What?"

"The dragon lizards over at "Hu Lao Mountain" have begun to hit the mountain wall like crazy, and the trade route in that area... is no longer passable."

"Is that so... Does that mean..."

Before Mo Yu finished speaking, Ye Lan nodded and said: "Tomorrow, at the latest the day after tomorrow we will set out to deal with the dragon lizards."

"Do you need help?"

Ye Lan fell silent after hearing this. She actually wanted to say no, because Mo Yu's fighting skills still need to be honed, and the thick-skinned dragon lizards are the most suitable whetstones, but now it seems... the conditions no longer allow it.

"Do you have any ideas?" Ye Lan asked back.

Mo Yu nodded gently, and then said: "Mr. Zhongli who is familiar with the habits of dragon lizards, and the traveler, one will come up with a plan, and the other will do the work."

Hearing these two names, Ye Lan slowly closed her eyes and entered a state of thinking. After a moment, she opened her eyes and said: "No problem, when will we set off?"

"Let's set off tomorrow. I'll ask Miss Ganyu to notify these two before I leave."

"No problem."

Just after Mo Yu and Ye Lan finished their conversation, Xiang Ling brought the "Wanmintang Boiled Fish" to the two of them, and then said: "Brother Mo Yu, Sister Ye Lan, enjoy your meal, just call me if you have anything~"

"Lul~"
