Chapter 705: Chapter 704: Jiang Li’s Past
“Come and take a look, this person’s name is really interesting, he shares the same name with Mr. Jiang.” Luo Zhu called to his brother and Ji Kongkong, sweeping away her previous gloominess.
“That’s true, this person is also named Jiang Li.”
Luo Ying and Ji Kongkong were drawn over, and like Luo Zhu, they were all intrigued by this person with the same name.
“It’s rare to see someone with the same name and surname as Uncle Jiang, shall we take a look at this person’s history?” Ji Kongkong suggested.
Due to the presence of Jiang Li, out of respect, parents in Jiuzhou would not name their child as “Jiang Li”. In today’s Jiuzhou, only one person is named Jiang Li.
“This Jiang Li, he grew up in this orphanage.”

Using his Divine Sense, Ji Kongkong looked back in time and shared the images he saw with the Luo siblings.
…
At the entrance of the orphanage, a young couple holding a basket, secretly placed the basket at the door, gently knocked on the door, and quickly left.
The director of the orphanage was an elderly woman. She opened the door to find a lone basket on the ground with no one in sight, she sighed.
Inside the basket was a peacefully sleeping baby.
The director sighed, this was not the first time she had encountered such a situation. Young couples, in the heat of passion, give birth to a child, but due to various reasons, they cannot raise the child. They leave the child at the doorsteps of orphanages, hospitals and other places, secretly slipping away as if nothing has happened.
“If they don’t have the ability, why would they put this child through the suffering of this world?”
The director picked up the baby and noticed a note in the child’s hand, on it was written “Jiang Li”.
“So, this child’s name is Jiang Li.”
Time flew by, and ten years passed. The child named Jiang Li grew up in the orphanage, he lived a good childhood with his brothers and sisters.
“Jiang Li, you did great on your final exams this time, but your homeroom teacher called me again.” The director called Jiang Li into her room with a resigned look on her face.
Jiang Li just finished playing soccer, his whole body was filthy. He washed his face and asked excitedly, “Did the teacher praise me again?”
The director pointed to her own expression, “Does it look like I’m here to praise you? The teacher told me, you’re thinking too divergently.”
“For example, this problem: the sum of Xiao Ming and his mother’s age this year is 38 years old. Five years later, his mother is 16 years older than Xiao Ming. How old is Xiao Ming this year?”
“Yes, you calculated Xiao Ming is 11 years old this year, that’s correct.”
“But why did you have to calculate his mother’s age as well? Fine, you figured that his mother is 27 this year, which isn’t wrong either.”
Jiang Li nodded, following the director’s remark he said quite reasonably, “Then I wrote that Xiao Ming was born when his mother was 16 years old. Early marriage and childbirth is in violation of the Marriage Law, so this isn’t wrong either.”
The director rubbed her temples in agony, somewhat regretting introducing Jiang Li to law so early.
The director’s initial intention was to worry that Jiang Li, abandoned by his parents, would become solitary, so she explained to him about law, trying to assure him that the world is beautiful and that law can punish the bad guys.
What’s surprising is that Jiang Li didn’t develop a solitary personality, in fact just the opposite, he was the most outgoing among his peers. At the same time, he also developed an interest in law.
It should have been a good thing, but the director would always receive complaints from the homeroom teacher, stating that Jiang Li thinks too actively and always goes off on tangents, even when he answers questions correctly.
The director tried to convince Jiang Li not to do so every time, but always failed.
“Alright, knowing and understanding the law is not a bad thing either, let it be.” The director waved her hand, asking Jiang Li to go back and continue playing soccer.
Watching the lively running figure of Jiang Li, the director shook her head helplessly, revealing a relieved smile.
Jiang Li performed exceptionally well and was admitted to a good university, naturally choosing law as his major.
There are many courses in law, including criminal law, civil law, international law, jurisprudence, and so on.
Jiang Li’s first class was jurisprudence.
Jurisprudence, the principle of law, is a subject with a strong theoretical flavor.
The jurisprudence professor took the podium and calmly threw out a question: “Class, do you know what the law seeks?”
What does the law seek?
This question stirred up discussion among the freshmen; most of them chose law not because they liked it, but because they didn’t know what to choose when selecting a major. They thought law has a good career prospects, so they chose it.
But they didn’t understand law at all.
Although Jiang Li had studied law, what he studied was statutory law, he never considered why law came into existence and what was the underlying significance.
Yes, what exactly does law pursue?
Seeing the freshmen didn’t know the answer to his question, the professor of jurisprudence smiled slightly. This was very normal, and he soon revealed the answer.
“What the law seeks is eternal justice and fairness.”
“Since ancient times, the law has been continuously changing, precisely because people’s understanding of justice and fairness keeps changing.”
“Even today, we still don’t have a definite answer to what justice and fairness truly mean.”
“Perhaps in your future life, you may find the answer.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li was stunned.
The professor continued, “Abusing authority for personal gain, pocketing public funds, nepotism, these are far from acts of justice.”
“As people of the law, 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 aspirations.”
After the opening speech, the professor began the formal lecture: “In ancient times, people imagined a possibility, hoping that the ‘philosopher king’ would appear at the pinnacle of power, who could transform the real society into an ideal society, but this is only a hypothesis, the philosopher king has never appeared…”
University’s four years ended, and Jiang Li, captivated by jurisprudence, chose to continue his education, being admitted to the jurisprudence master’s and doctoral programs.
During his master’s and doctoral programs, he studied various law theories from ancient and modern times, both domestic and foreign. He had a deep understanding of any theory. His doctoral advisor praised his learning abilities and believed he would certainly become an authority in the field of jurisprudence.
After Jiang Li passed his thesis defense, his doctoral advisor hoped he would stay at the university to teach, but he wanted to put theory into practice and chose to work, advocating justice and fairness.
His advisor initially wanted to discourage him, but after exchanging a few words with Jiang Li, he found that Jiang Li had a firm determination that couldn’t be swayed.
The advisor sighed and said, “You seem haphazard and mellow, but in fact, you have strong principles and sharp edges. No one can shake you.”
“Thank you for the compliment, professor.” Jiang Li said, scratching his head modestly.
“I’m not complimenting you. This personality of yours can backfire in your professional life. You should turn a blind eye to some things. Model what others do, don’t stand out, and don’t split hairs on right and wrong.”
“You might be right, but it doesn’t mean you always have to do what’s right. It can hinder your progress.”
Jiang Li was puzzled, “Why? Right is right, and wrong is wrong. Why shouldn’t we make it clear? If I know this is right, of course, I would do it.”
The advisor shook his head and said, “You will understand in time.”
As Jiang Li wished, he started working, becoming a legal worker.
