"This is the new warden of Luoyang Prison, Lord Han Fei.”
"My lord." The ten class heads bowed together.
The feeling of being an official was different. He now had a group of people under him. Han Fei smiled and nodded in response like the leader in his previous life.
"Milord, why did you call us here?”Hou Cheng bowed and said.
"It's like this. I've seen the responsibilities of our prison. There's a lack of humane management in the treatment of prisoners."”
"Humanized management?" Hou Cheng had never heard of such a term before, so he couldn't understand it for a moment. The remaining class leaders were even more unbearable. What was the lord talking about? Humanized management? Could it be a new term that was popular among the noble families?
"Humanized management is…”Forget it, it was simply playing the lute to a cow to teach the ancients about human behavior. It was better to be more practical. Han Fei said,"As the old saying goes, the world belongs to those who win the hearts of the people. The humane management that I'm talking about is to add some human touch to the process of looking after prisoners. This will help the prisoners understand their own mistakes and help the prisoners reform their minds. Only then will it be difficult for them to commit crimes again after they are released from prison.”
Eh? The class heads looked at each other. What Lord Han Fei said seemed to make sense. Why couldn't they understand it? As expected of a scholar.
"Ah! Sir, then how do you carry out this human…human management?”Hou Cheng understood more, but he didn't know what to do.
"Hmm, how about this? Go and put up a notice. From now on, on the first and the thirtieth of every month, the relatives of the prisoners can come to visit. Every day, the prisoners would get up at 11:00 am and have an hour of free time.”Han Fei said.
"Prison visit? Keep watch? Dare I ask, sir, what is a lookout?" Hou Cheng was shocked. He knew about visiting the prison, but the guard couldn't understand.
"Oh, the word 'out' means to let the prisoners out of the dungeon and walk around under the sun.”Han Fei laughed.
"This…Sir, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. It was fine to visit the prison, but what if the prisoner escaped?”Hou Cheng immediately said. He thought to himself that a new official had three fires. His Excellency's first fire was really strange.
"Who can run out of this high wall? Just handcuff them. They were all people who had a hard life and had lived in Luoyang for generations. They could see each other everywhere. If they met outside in the future, it would be easier for them to meet each other.”Han Fei said.
Zhou Shan and the others looked at each other. The ancients did not have such thoughts. However, they were all the same. Although it was their first time hearing it from Han Fei, they felt that it made sense. Han Fei was the leader of the prison. Once the leader spoke, no one dared to object.
Soon, the thousands of prisoners in Luoyang Prison saw the sun for the first time. When the prisoner heard this, his first reaction was disbelief. When he came out, he realized that the jailer was telling the truth. There was no light in the dungeon, and there was no place to communicate. He could even get sick from holding it in. After being released, it was as if he had been reborn. Those who did not know each other gathered together to celebrate and did not forget to salute the jailer.
The jailers felt very pleased to be saluted by many prisoners. In the prison, these prisoners looked at him as if he was the enemy who killed his father. They felt that the new Lord Han Fei was indeed amazing. Humanized management, tsk tsk, he would brag to his wife when he got back.
"Sir, this method is indeed extraordinary. Look at how happy these prisoners are.”Hou Cheng was also from an ordinary family. He knew that most of these people were forced by life. Seeing this scene, he felt emotional.
"Not bad, not bad!" Reputation was the most important thing if one wanted to succeed in times of chaos. Take that big-eared thief for example. His reputation for benevolence spread throughout the world. In the end, he relied on people and one of the three parts of the world. By doing this, I will also have a reputation for being benevolent. Everything was for the sake of reputation. Han Fei smiled and said,"Gather these people. I want to talk to them.”
"Yes, sir!" Hou Cheng hurriedly walked over and shouted,"It is all thanks to Lord Han Fei that you sinners are able to receive such benefits. Everyone gather here. Lord Han Fei wants to give a lecture.”
Lord Han Fei's grace? The prisoners gathered together in surprise, and the head of the class and the jailers stood guard at the periphery. When Han Fei walked over, the prisoners quieted down. It was this lord who let us out. I wonder what he wants to say?
"Yeah…" Han Fei cleared his throat. It was his first time speaking in front of thousands of people, so he was still a little afraid. He thought about it and shouted,"Although you are prisoners, you also have the human rights that you should enjoy. What was human rights? It was the right of everyone to live an equal life.”
The prisoners were stunned. There was such a right! Zhou Shan and the others were also watching…
Let's put it in plain words. Seeing the expressions of these people, Han Fei said with melancholy,"You have violated the laws of the Great Han Dynasty, so you have lost your freedom. Being imprisoned is a form of atonement, but imprisonment is not the goal. The real goal is to make you think about your crimes. "Therefore, you have the right to live. As the warden of this prison, I, Han Fei, have the responsibility to make sure that you receive better treatment in prison.”
"Therefore, I have now stipulated that you will have an hour to walk out of the dungeon every day. You can chat and bask in the sun. This is the embodiment of human rights. In the future, when you are released, you will no longer be sinners. When we meet, we will be equal. I, Han Fei, will definitely not look down on you just because you have been in prison…"
In the Great Han Dynasty, not to mention prisoners, even ordinary people had no human rights. After the prisoners heard this, they were dumbfounded when they understood what Han Fei meant by equality.
"Milord, Milord, you, are you telling the truth? You said that we have this human…human rights, and that we are…equal to people of your status…”At this moment, a young prisoner stood out and bowed. He said in fear.
"That's right. Everyone is equal in this world. The only difference is the division of labor.”Han Fei laughed. It seemed that the understanding of this Han citizen was quite good. He understood it with just a little bit.
"Sir, I have a…a request!”the prisoner said nervously.
"What is it?"
"It's just that my sentence is up, but…but it's been a month. I…I want to go out…boohoo…”As the young prisoner spoke, he became afraid and began to cry.
"Impudent!" Hou Cheng shouted. The four prison guards walked over with fierce expressions.
"Sir, please spare my life, please spare my life. This lowly one won't dare to speak anymore, wuwu….”
"Wait!" Han Fei stopped the jailer and said to Hou Cheng,""Go and check this person's sentence.”
"Yes, my lord!" Hou Cheng did not dare to be negligent. He ran back a few minutes later and held the account book of the sentence."This person's sentence was completed a month ago.”After saying that, Hou Cheng's face was filled with embarrassment and nervousness. No one had paid attention to this matter before. There were many people who had stayed for a year and a half.
"Kid, you've been released. You can leave now."”
The prisoner who was kneeling on the ground and crying thought that he was going to be in big trouble. He could not help but curse himself for listening to this official talk about human rights. Where did ordinary people get human rights? Every year, Landlord Wang in the village would say that everyone should put in more effort and not increase the rent even if the harvest was good. Everyone worked hard, but the extra grain harvested in autumn was still snatched away by Landlord Wang. This Lord Han Fei is the same as Landlord Wang. How can I believe it? When he heard Han Fei's words, he exclaimed. "Ah!"
"Hehe, I failed in my duty. Since you have served your sentence, you should be released. This is your right and one of your human rights.”Han Fei laughed. "Alright, don't cry. Hurry up and leave. Your family is still waiting for you!”
Hou Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that Han Fei was a warden personally appointed by the capital governor Yang Biao. If he really investigated this matter, he would be finished. Seeing that Han Fei did not have any intention of probing further, he was grateful.
The young prisoner could not believe his ears. He carefully walked a few steps toward the door and saw that the jailer holding a bright knife did not care about him. He ran all the way to the door.
This was a big deal. More than a hundred people said that their sentence was up, and Han Fei checked one by one that none of them were lying. They were all pitiful people. Han Fei sighed and said,"I, Han Fei, hereby promise that if you serve your sentence well in Luoyang Prison in the future, you will be obedient and not cause trouble. Whoever performs well, I will ask the higher-ups to reduce his sentence so that he can go home and reunite with his family as soon as possible!”
"Lord, Lord Qingtian…!”More than a hundred people who had been released after serving their sentences were grateful and kowtowed first. The rest of the thousands of people felt Han Fei's grace. They had never heard that officials had to be equal to ordinary people. This was a rare benevolent and good official, so they all knelt down and kowtowed.
Seeing so many people kneeling in front of him, Han Fei couldn't express his thoughts with words. He hurriedly said,"Get up, all of you who have regained your freedom, you must abide by the law and live a good life. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me, Han Zijin.”
"Thank you, sir…" More than a hundred people walked out. The other prisoners were also very excited. They had never seen such a benevolent lord in their lives. It seemed that they had a chance to get out of here alive.
Lord Han Fei was indeed amazing. He had never seen a prisoner who was deeply grateful to the officials in prison. Hou Cheng couldn't help but think about it and sigh in his heart.
"D * mn, what's going on! Are you rebelling…" A burly man wearing the uniform of a prison guard came in and pulled out a saber from his waist with a clang. He cut down a prisoner on the ground. "Brothers, grab the weapons and capture these prisoners who escaped from the dungeon. Those who resist will be killed on the spot!”
