Chapter 3115

In ancient Greek mythology, after Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter, the Greeks set sail that day and sailed smoothly to the small island of Charyuse, where they prepared to replenish water.

A sharpshooter named Philoctetes, who was not working with the others, was the son of the king and was a disciple of Heracles. He heard that this island had once visited Jason on his voyage. The place where Athena sacrificed herself, so she searched for the altar everywhere on the island, and finally found it.

He happily offered a sacrifice to the goddess, but unexpectedly a venomous snake emerged from the pile of stones. Venomous snakes often guard this holy place.

It bit Philoctetes on the ankle, and soon it festered, accompanied by a foul stench. The passing soldiers could not bear the smell and Philoctetes' screams, and finally after some deliberation Finally, the Achaeans decided to abandon Philoctetes because his screams would shake the Greeks' fighting spirit.

They gave Philoctetes a medicine to help him sleep, then loaded him into a small boat, placed him in a cave, left him with enough clothes and food, and then drove the boat back to the team.

But what they didn't know was that as they gave up on the archer, they also lost the skill of bow and arrow with perfect accuracy.

Georgiana looked at the vanishing cabinet in front of her and circled around it.

She didn't know why she thought of this myth. Wood was needed in many places, not just for archers' arrows, but also for making furniture, and for sailing ships.

In the preamble of the "Charitable Usage Law", it is not clearly stated that donating to the military is a legal "charitable use". In that era, all boys between the ages of 7 and 17 were required to have a bow and arrow. His father and the male master who served him had to provide it. If he was unable to meet the requirements due to poverty, he would use charity. In addition, in the preface Aiding sick and disabled soldiers has been listed among the legitimate charitable purposes.

So after a series of case derivation, we came to this conclusion, and the original charity benefit was to reduce the financial burden of the parish and be used to repair the church.

In addition to Oxford, Cambridge has also been sued for "charitable use". There was a public landowner who donated his land to the University of Cambridge. In addition to maintaining his wife's living needs, the remaining estate was Funding went to academics.

This was a limited inheritance, and his other relatives immediately petitioned the common courts to recover the land, since the lord had not passed judgment on it.

Compared with arrows, the range of artillery is much longer. When Queen Elizabeth I succeeded to the throne, Calais, the last isolated British city on the European continent, was recaptured by France. This marked the complete loss of the results of the Hundred Years War between Britain and France, and Queen Elizabeth I also He can no longer claim to be the King of "England, Ireland and France" like Bloody Mary.

There is another version of Henry VIII's marriage in the eyes of "foreigners". The reason why he always wanted a son was because France did not accept women as kings according to the Thackeray Law.

Both Elizabeth and Mary were considered illegitimate. As long as they were illegitimate, neither male nor female had the right to inherit. However, according to the Third Act of Succession, both Mary and Elizabeth had the right to inherit, and in Edward VI's will, Jane Gray was specified as the heir to the throne.

Henry VIII had the title of "Supreme", and he could designate Edward VI as his successor. However, Edward VI's will was not recognized by Parliament, while Mary and Elizabeth's illegitimate children and their inheritance rights were recognized by Parliament.

In the end, Jane Gray became the first queen, but she was beheaded after 13 days on the throne. Then according to the order of succession to the throne, Mary became the queen.

After Mary succeeded to the throne, she first had to face the issue of the legitimacy of her throne. She mixed "queen" to make it not just the king's consort, she was both the king and the queen of England, no matter who her husband was. In addition, he regarded his coronation ceremony as a marriage contract with the country. This can be said to be an innovation since Pepin's coronation ceremony.

Elizabeth continued Mary's coronation ceremony, but she did more than that. The "Charitable Use Act" needs to determine the legality of charitable use. It is to distinguish superstition from benefit. Piety is not equal to charity and is used for invalid superstition. Donations may be confiscated by the king.

So what is superstition and what is charity? The judges at the time couldn't tell the difference, but Moore explained, "Public welfare is the core value of the Charitable Usage Act, and poverty relief is its main form." As long as the use is used to promote the interests of the poor, equity will Protect it even if it incidentally benefits the rich.

For example, when building a road to a mill, even if the mill is private property and the grinding service is not free, the road is also publicly owned and "charitable benefit" must be used.

Another example is subsidizing an illegitimate child whose mother has died, because “charity does not care about birth, but cares about whether help is needed.” When Elizabeth I succeeded to the throne, England's finances were almost on the verge of collapse. Although the previous kings established a navy, due to the lack of attention during the reigns of Edward VI and Mary I, half of the ships were soaked in seawater, and the hemp ropes that fixed the sails were left in ruins. They were all soaked to pieces, and the naval base was in disrepair. The Lord Admiralty enriched himself by using the wood used to build warships to build his own merchant ships.

Although you can donate money to build warships, if you don't plug the loopholes in the ship, the ship will still sink.

So Elizabeth I changed to a new Lord of the Admiralty. At the Queen's warm invitation, Hawkins devoted himself to naval construction. He had rich navigation experience. Charitable funds will also be used to repair the seawall, as well as the harbor, because these facilities are for the safety of ships in the port.

However, rather than focusing on strait defense and positional warfare, Hawkins believes that sea routes are more important.

During that time, the eating habits of people in England changed. In addition to the Lent period of Lent, there were also "fish days" every Friday and Saturday. As a result, the British could only eat fish for half of the year. As the consumption of fish increased, more sailors were needed. They inevitably came into conflict with the Dutch who controlled the fishing grounds. Sailors with "practical combat experience" were trained. Only with enough sailors could the number of the fleet be increased. .

Sailors can also be superstitious, but it is rare to hear that people find an altar to offer sacrifices to gods to pray for good winds like the ancient Greeks. What season the wind blows needs to be observed and summarized from experience. It can be predicted from the shape of clouds and the color of the sky. When will the storm come?

"The Iliad" contains the dispute between Achilles and Agamemnon over the "spoils of war". They did not directly use force or duel to compete for a priest's daughter.

Legend has it that Clovis, the founder of the Franks, killed a soldier over a vase.

According to Gaius' records in "Compendium of Laws", the Roman emperor's edicts can be divided into three types.

An edict is a general order issued by the emperor to the residents of the country. Both citizens and non-citizens must abide by it. If the emperor dies or abdicates, the heir can annul it through an explicit order or the edict of the previous emperor. Otherwise, the old edict will continue to be valid.

The imperial edict is the emperor's answer to some new policies and laws, and must be in writing.

An imperial decree is a judgment made in a case accepted by the emperor. In principle, its effect only extends to the parties involved. However, if it involves a principle issue in the new law and is promulgated, judges across the country will have to use this decree when encountering similar cases in the future. As a criterion for judging cases, it does not necessarily have to be in writing.

The judgment of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V against Luther was considered an edict. In any case, Charles V was the "Roman Emperor." Charles V did not use burning at the stake to deal with Luther, so in principle, all judges in the Holy Roman Empire could not use burning at the stake to deal with heretics, but could only use exile, shackles and other methods to punish them.

Elizabeth burned a cat to clear herself from the suspicion of being a witch. There was no Inquisition in England, but there was the Witchcraft Act of 1735. She really didn't understand the logic behind the passage of this act, and what about the Witchcraft Act? The judge at the Lemm Witch Trials asked the magical question "If you don't know what a witch is, how do you know you are not a witch?"

The judiciary cannot simply be used as a tool to achieve specific policy goals, or to provide effective means for achieving those goals. The role of the judge is to ensure that society treats its members in a "reasonable" manner.

Achilles' behavior after killing Hector was very inhumane. Although there was only one flaw in his body, in order to avoid his fate, the sea nymphs asked Vulcan to make a shield for him. Paris was blessed by Apollo. Shot in the ankle.

Later, what the Greeks did to Troy made Athena angry, and she brought disaster on them on their return journey.

If God does not exist and someone does something that is outrageous to both humans and gods, who will punish him?

Judges should have principles and rules. During Voldemort's reign, wizards were tried at the Ministry of Magic. It was an inverted method that was result-oriented. The rules became the vassal of the result rather than the master.

"Have you ever opened this cupboard?" asked Georgiana.

The four French wizards stared at each other for a while.

"It's empty," said a wizard.

"Has anyone opened it on the way?" asked Georgiana again.

"No...but I don't know if anyone has opened it at the other end." The same wizard said.

"Do any of you dare to open it?" asked Georgiana.

"I dare you." Another wizard came out. "We French people are not like that British chick, who is afraid of being like that in a cabinet."

So Georgiana and Carolan stepped aside, and the four French wizards stood opposite the disappearing cabinet.

They first cast a protective spell on themselves, and after everything was ready, one of them raised his wand.

A white light flashed and hit the door of the disappearing cabinet.

It itself is not a magic item with offensive or defensive power, it is just because it is hidden...

A black shadow jumped out of the cabinet the moment the cabinet door opened, but after hitting the wizards' protective spell, it bounced in another direction and pierced the door of the carriage parked in the garage.

It was an arrow cluster, and the arrowhead was quite sharp.

Then nothing happened.

The wizards waited for a while before stepping forward to check. About a minute later, as if it was safe, the wizard who was the first to say "I dare" got into the disappearing cabinet.

After waiting for another two or three minutes, he got out of the cabinet.

"You never believe what's out there?" he said with a smile.

"We'll see if we can." Carolan said provocatively, walked to the disappearing cabinet, and got in.
