Seeking the full-text translation of Zhu Yuanzhang's Amnesty is an article introduced and selected from the second volume of China History. I add 100 to the answer.
I mainly translate Zhu Yuanzhang's words for you. Image above: Using the law is like using drugs. Drugs are used to save people, not to kill people. Taking it indiscriminately will inevitably kill people. The essence of law is to protect people, not to kill people. Too strict laws will hurt people. People have just come out of the suffering since the world chaos. Now they have joined me. It's time to comfort them. In addition, any mistake that violates the law is difficult to be brought to justice. Generally speaking, crimes are mainly dealt with leniently. Deviation from leniency will become harsh. The governance of the so-called newly established country needs leniency. People who are right in criminal law will not be wronged. If they are paranoid and unreasonable, it is inappropriate.
