I wield the three-foot law: what is law?
He came from law school and fell into a battlefield drenched in blood and fire three thousand years in the past.
Across seven lives, he witnessed divine punishments and sacred judgments in the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, then harsh laws and brutal torture under the Qin and Han; from the golden age of ritual and law in the Sui and Tang to the peak of imperial power in the Ming and Qing. At last, he would personally lay the old law to rest and welcome new life among its ruins.
In every life, he wielded the three-foot law and judged injustices spanning the ages.
Each time he bowed his head, he saw the four characters “The law does not favor the powerful” on the inkstone.
Each time he looked up, he heard his grandfather say, “The law is never perfect. That is precisely why generation after generation of legal professionals are needed.”
This is a legal pilgrimage across three thousand years and seven lives.
This is a love letter from a legal professional to the faith he believes in.
Not bad, come on✊
