Chapter 1492: Chapter 1491: The Bottom Line of the Daqi Laws_1 Chapter 1492: Chapter 1491: The Bottom Line of the Daqi Laws_1 Bei Lingsu looked somewhat dazed at Yang Ye, whose phoenix eyes stared straight at her, his handsome face bearing an expression somewhat unfamiliar to her.
He had never been forceful with Bei Lingsu before.
But he had to do it now.
The “Daqi Laws” were sacred and inviolable. This was the ideology he had promoted in Daqi for a year after suffering many hardships. Bei Yun had violated the “Daqi Laws,” and his crimes warranted execution a hundred times over. Such a demon, with such a vile deed, and so many people watching, he had to be firm. He had to set a baseline for the “Daqi Laws,” he could not discredit the Yang Family himself.
Apart from the Yang Family, no one could have special privileges. Even if there were privileges, they must come from either Emperor Yongan or Yang Wenxiao’s personal decree of pardon.
As a prince, he must uphold the dignity of the “Daqi Laws.”
Moreover, he had his own selfish reasons as well.
So even though Bei Lingsu’s bewildered look tugged at his heart, he still looked her in the eye, unflinchingly.
It was Qiao Xiaomai who first broke the deadlock. She looked towards Bei Lingsu and softly asked, “Lingsu, does your family’s rules not even allow the dissemination of common medical practices?”
She understood what Yang Ye meant. Yang Ye wanted Bei Lingsu to leave behind her medical skills and disciples. Coming from the future, she felt that some daily medical knowledge wasn’t much of a big deal, and there were also many books about herbal medicine. These things weren’t significant.
But from what Bei Lingsu implied, did the Bei family not even allow the spreading of common knowledge?
Upon hearing this, Bei Lingsu bit her lip, troubled, “Yes, that’s how my Bei family’s rules are set.”
“Uh… then how about you save more people?” If saving one life isn’t enough, then save two lives. Yang Ye was doing this for the good of Daqi. With so many eyes watching, how could they let off such a major demon lightly? How would the Yang Family be able to enforce the “Daqi Laws” in the future?
How would the Yang Family have the face to ask others to abide by the “Daqi Laws”?
Bei Yun, standing to the side and hearing this conversation, smiled and suggested, “Aunt, you don’t have to be troubled. I came here to enjoy wealth and honor, not to be imprisoned.”
He looked towards Yang Ye as he spoke and asked, “Your Highness Prince Wei, can you now enter the Palace to consult your father, Grandpa Emperor, and inquire whether, if I Bei Yun have a method to extend human life, they would pardon me if I offered this prescription?”
“No.” Yang Ye’s refusal came crisply, “To be pardoned from the sins of tens of thousands by merely offering a prescription? Our Daqi’s ‘Daqi Laws’ are not the rules of the Bei family. Our ‘Daqi Laws’ value not the lifespan of a few individuals, but the safety and well-being of all citizens.” Yang Ye stood with his back straight, firmly rejecting the proposition.
Even if it were a prescription for longevity, he couldn’t acknowledge that in front of so many people!
