Chapter 705 Jiang Li’s Past
"Come and see, this person's name is very interesting, it's the same name as Mr. Jiang." Luo Zhu greeted his brother and Ji Kongkong, sweeping away his previous gloom.
"Really? This person is also called Jiang Li."
Luo Ying and Ji Kongkong were attracted to this, and their reactions were similar to Luo Zhu's. They were all interested in this person with the same name.
"It's rare to meet someone with the same name as Uncle Jiang. Do you want to take a look at this person's past?" Ji Kongkong said.
Because of the existence of Jiang Li in Jiuzhou, parents would not name their children "Jiang Li" to show respect for him. Now in Jiuzhou, there is only one person named Jiang Li.
"This guy named Jiang Li grew up in this orphanage."
Ji Kongkong used the power of time to see into the past, and used his spiritual consciousness to share what he saw with Luo Ying and his sister.
…
At the entrance of the orphanage, a young couple was holding a basket. They stealthily placed the basket at the door, knocked on the door gently, and left quickly.
The director of the orphanage was an elderly woman. She opened the door and saw only a lonely basket on the ground with no one around. She sighed.
In the basket was a baby sleeping peacefully.
The old director sighed. This was not the first time she had encountered such a thing. Young couples got carried away and gave birth to children, but for various reasons they were unable to raise them. They would then leave the children at the door of orphanages, hospitals, etc., and then secretly leave as if nothing had happened.
"If you don't have the ability, why let this child come to the world and suffer?"
The old dean picked up the child and noticed that there was a note in the child's hand with "Jiang Li" written on it.
"It seems that this child's name is Jiang Li."
Time flies, ten years have passed, and a child named Jiang Li grew up in an orphanage and spent a wonderful childhood with his brothers and sisters.
"Jiang Li, you did very well in this final exam, but your homeroom teacher called me over again." The old dean called Jiang Li into the room, helplessness written all over his face.
Jiang Li had just finished playing football and was all dirty. He washed his face and asked excitedly, "Did the teacher praise me again?"
The old dean pointed at his own expression and said, "Do you think I am praising you? The teacher told me not to let your thoughts wander too much."
"For example, in this question, the sum of Xiao Ming and his mother's ages this year is 38. Five years later, his mother will be 16 years older than Xiao Ming. How old is Xiao Ming this year?"
"Yes, you calculated that Xiao Ming is 11 years old this year, that's correct."
"But why do you still want to calculate Mom's age? Okay, you can calculate that Mom is 27 years old this year, that's fine too."
Jiang Li nodded, and continued the old dean's words as a matter of course: "Then I will write that Xiao Ming's mother gave birth to him when she was 16 years old. Early marriage and early childbearing violated the Marriage Law. This is not wrong."
The old dean rubbed his temple in pain, regretting that he had let Jiang Li study law too early.
The old dean's original intention was to worry that Jiang Li was abandoned by his parents and had a withdrawn personality, so he explained the law to him, saying that the world is a beautiful place and there are laws to punish bad people.
Jiang Li did not develop a withdrawn personality. On the contrary, he was the most cheerful among his peers. He also developed an interest in law.
This is a good thing, but the old dean always receives complaints from the class teachers, saying that Jiang Li's mind is too active and he always makes unexpected mistakes while answering the questions correctly.
The old dean tried every time to persuade Jiang Li not to do this, but failed every time.
"Forget it. Knowing and understanding the law is not a bad thing. Let's just leave it at that." The old dean waved his hand and asked Jiang Li to go back and continue playing football.
Looking at Jiang Li's back as he ran happily, the old dean shook his head helplessly and smiled with relief.
Jiang Li had excellent grades and was admitted to a good university, and the major he chose was naturally law.
There are many legal subjects, including criminal law, civil law, international law, jurisprudence, etc.
Jiang Li’s first class was jurisprudence.
Jurisprudence, that is, the principles of law, is a discipline with a strong theoretical color.
The jurisprudence teacher stepped onto the podium and calmly asked a question: "Students, do you know what the law is pursuing?"
What does law pursue? This question aroused discussion among freshmen. Most of them chose law not because they liked it, but because they did not know what to choose when choosing a major. They thought law had a good prospect, so they chose it.
But they know nothing about law.
Although Jiang Li studied law, he only learned the legal provisions and never thought about why the law was created or what the meaning behind it was.
Yes, what is the law pursuing? Seeing that the freshmen did not know the answer to this question, the jurisprudence teacher smiled and said that this was normal. He quickly announced the answer.
"What the law pursues is eternal fairness and justice."
This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!
"Since ancient times, the law has been constantly changing, precisely because people's understanding of the meaning of fairness and justice has been constantly changing."
"To this day, there is still no definite answer to what fairness and justice mean."
"Perhaps you will find the answer in your future life."
Jiang Li's body trembled when he heard this.
The teacher continued, "Using power for personal gain, enriching oneself, and appointing people based on personal connections are never fair."
"As a legal professional, I hope that when you step into your respective positions in the future, you will not forget the original intention of the law and your original intention."
After the opening remarks, the teacher began to lecture formally: "In ancient times, people imagined a possibility, hoping that a 'philosopher king' would appear. The philosopher king was at the pinnacle of power and could transform the real society into an ideal society. However, this is only a hypothesis, and the philosopher king has never appeared..."
After four years of college, Jiang Li was attracted to jurisprudence and chose to pursue further studies, and was admitted to the Master's and Doctoral Programs in Jurisprudence.
During his master's and doctoral studies, he studied various legal theories from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, and could recite all of them by heart. His doctoral supervisor praised his learning ability and believed that he would definitely become an authority in the field of jurisprudence.
After Jiang Li passed his graduation defense, his doctoral supervisor hoped that he would stay on to teach at the school, but he wanted to put his theory into practice, so he chose to work and uphold fairness and justice.
The doctoral supervisor wanted to stop him, but after talking to Jiang Li for a few words, he found that Jiang Li was determined and could not be persuaded at all.
The doctoral supervisor sighed and said, "You may seem to be a frivolous person, but in fact, you have strong principles and clear edges that no one can shake."
"Thank you for the compliment, teacher." Jiang Li said, touching his head embarrassedly.
"I'm not praising you. Your personality will cause you great harm at work. You should turn a blind eye to some things and learn to do what others do. Don't be a maverick and don't distinguish right from wrong so clearly."
“You may be right, but you don’t have to do the right thing, and it will affect your development.”
Jiang Li was puzzled: "Why? Right is right, wrong is wrong, why can't you tell the difference? I know this is right, so of course I have to do it."
The doctoral supervisor shook his head and said, "You will understand later."
Jiang Li got his wish and started working as a legal worker.
