Abstract: “Good litigation” is a common sentiment in the Song Dynasty,which is confirmed in Ming Gong Shu Pan Qingming Collection.Based on a lange number of cases and historical facts,it can be concluded that “good litigation” is mainly the corruption,power,and evil of officials.It is also better for the public to learn and understand the law,and to protect their rights in a civilized way.Due to the prosperous agricultural economy and scarce arable land in Jiangxi,there are many and complex lawsuits over the ownership of farmland.During the trail of disputes,due to differences in the moral character and talent of officials,some were greedy and even broke the rules they made,resulting in unfair judgements,Mang judgements about the combination of education and punishment inspires us to deepen our understanding of Annoucement in the white Deers Hole Academy.Zhu Xi emphazies the way in which the sages teach people,and also warns students that if they dont follow education,they will be punished by the implementation of “learning regulations”.Ming Gong Shu Pan Qingming Collection is a precious material for studying dynastic history,social history,legal history,etc.,and it still has its reference and warning significance to this day.

Key words: litigation, Ming Gong Shu Pan Qingming Collection, “on the upper level,one breaks the rules he made”, the study of law by the public, “learning regulations”
