Cui Lueshang and Huang Qi had a long-standing quarrel. Because the other party was more important than Lu Fang, the deputy chief of the capital, he had no choice but to swallow his anger. That's why today when Sun Tu wanted to punish Huang Qi and others, he suddenly told the truth. But as soon as he said it, he regretted it again, fearing that the new Sun Dutou would not be able to defeat Lu Fang and the others and would harm himself.
But now, when he saw with his own eyes that Sun Tu easily knocked Huang Qi and the others to the ground, his worries disappeared. The opportunity for revenge is so close, how can we miss it so easily? So Cui Lueshang took the lead to come out and follow Sun Tu's order to tie up the people.
With the first one taking the lead, the other hesitating officers finally did not dare to sit back and watch. Immediately, several more people came out and helped Cui Lueshang tie up Huang Qi and Yan Huan. All three of them had a dislocated arm and could not resist at all. They just shouted that they were wronged: "Sun Dutou, what are you doing? We were just ordered to run errands... "
Sun Tu ignored their intentions and just looked at Zhang Laosi's family and the young man who was obviously still full of fear: "Why did you guys have such a conflict with the people of my Kaifeng Mansion?"
Before Zhang Laosi and the others could speak, Huang Qi had already shouted loudly: "Zhang Laosi owed people more than one hundred guan and not only refused to pay it back, but he also injured people and ran away. I will come to get them now. And him, He actually had no law and helped Zhang Laosi's family fight against the government... "
"The villain is wronged. My family only borrowed 30 guan of cash from Boss Fang before, but only half a year later, they raised a huge debt of 150 guan. The villain even sold the land and was unable to pay it back. They kept pushing each other to pay debts, so I just..." When Zhang Laosi saw that Sun Tu was not with Huang Qi and the others, he plucked up the courage to cry out.
Listening to these words, Sun Tu easily thought of himself when he first came to the Song Dynasty and was blackmailed by loan sharks. However, the situation of Zhang Laosi's family was even more difficult than his own. Huang Qi was still shouting: "Sun Dutou, have you heard it? It is natural to pay back debts. I am just acting according to the rules."
"Rules?" Sun Tu sneered and suddenly turned to look at him: "I want to ask you, does he owe me taxes in Kaifeng Mansion?" Huang Qi shook his head in confusion at that time, and when he saw this, Sun Tu His face sank: "In that case, why are you here to join in the fun? When did you, an official from Kaifeng Mansion, become a dog-legger who collects bills for others?"
"As for the rules, I won't argue with you until I get back!" Sun Tu said and waved his hand: "Take them with you, let's go back." As he said this, he didn't even look at Zhang Laosi's family, and he didn't even win. The young man who dared to fight Huang Qi and the others turned around and walked out.
The other officers only hesitated for a moment, and then they could only escort Huang Qi and the three of them to follow the footsteps. It wasn't until a group of them left that the people who had dispersed just now showed their heads, and then discussed what was going on with suspicious and frightened expressions.
On the other side, Zhang Laosi's family, who was still in shock, thanked the young man repeatedly. If he hadn't come to protect them at that time, they might have been captured. The young man just smiled casually: "It's nothing. In fact, I didn't help much. If Sun Dutou hadn't brought someone here in time, I might have fallen into their hands."
"I don't know what the strong man's name is, so I can remember it in my heart from now on."
"My friend Hou Jian, my friends all call me Tongbei Yuan." He gave his name in an upright manner, and then turned around and left regardless of Zhang Laosi's family's pleas to stay.

When Sun Tu and the others escorted Huang Qi and the others back to Kaifeng Mansion, they immediately attracted many surprised looks. Although everyone knew what they were going to do, the embarrassing appearance of Huang Qi and the three of them still surprised everyone. Seeing this, two people hurriedly ran inside to deliver the news to Lu Fang.
Sun Tu did not bring the people into the yamen, but stood at the yamen gate and ordered: "Tie these three people outside to show them to the public, so that others can know the rules of my office!"
"Sun Dutou, I don't accept it!" Although Huang Qi's face was sweating because of the pain of his dislocated arm, he still shouted loudly: "Young man is just following orders. Even if there is something wrong, it is not a sin..."
"Why, at this point, you still don't know what mistakes you have made? Then let me tell you." Sun Tu came to him with a sneer: "The three of you should have received the transfer order a few days ago, understand. You will be under my control from now on. But you are good, you know that today I am going to gather you to wait for official business, but you dare to disobey the order and go elsewhere to help the loan shark collect the debt! Are you really an official who can be bullied? "
These words made it difficult for Huang Qi and the others to defend themselves. At the same time, they felt regretful in their hearts. If they had known that Sun Dutou was so tough and unyielding, they should not have listened to Lu Dutou's persuasion and done such a thing. But now it's too late to regret, and I can only hope that Lu Fang will come out to rescue him.
Lu Fang did not expect that Sun Tu would make such a big fuss. He was secretly shocked and also quite annoyed. If Sun Tu really punished Huang Qi and the others today, he would lose face. So while he sent someone to send a message to Fang Yasi inside, he quickly ran out to dissuade him.
When he came to the yamen gate, Huang Qi and the other two people were already tied to pillars, and some people who passed by the yamen gate gathered around curiously to see what was going on. This made his face even hotter, and he immediately came to Sun Tu: "Sun Dutou, what are you doing? We are all brothers in the government office, why should we make things so tense?"
When Huang Qi and the others saw Lu Fang coming out, they all shouted like a drowning man grabbing the last straw: "Lu Dutou, save us. We also followed your orders to get the Zhang Laosi family." of… "
The reason why Sun Tu didn't go into the Yamen immediately and wait was Lu Fang. Hearing this, he just snorted: "Lu Dutou, are what the three of them said true? Sure enough, he is the person you asked them to get?"
Hearing the annoyance in Sun Tu's words, Lu Fang's head tightened. He could clearly feel that if he really nodded and took responsibility, the other party might take the opportunity to have an attack and even he would be brought to justice. Moreover, this young man was exuding a frightening pressure at this time, which actually frightened Lu Dutou, who had always been bold. He could only apologize and said with a smile: "Sun Dutou, please calm down, I... I just asked them before I humbled myself. Go and bring Zhang Laosi and the others to the Yamen as soon as possible. Don't dare to let them delay the business." A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses. He is not going to bump into someone when they are in full swing. He has some backup plans anyway.
"Do you understand?" Sun Tu then turned to look at Huang Qi and the others: "You three just ignored the yamen rules for a trivial matter and left serious matters behind, but how can I still dare to use you today? It's just a small punishment but a big warning. After I show you to the public, I will ask Judge Xue Tong to remove you from your posts. I don't have people who are unwilling to obey!"
As soon as these words came out, Huang Qi and the others, Cui Lueshang and other officers, and Lu Fang were all shocked. This punishment was really too serious. You must know that although government servants like Huang Qi are not considered court officials, they are still registered in the government office. Their status is naturally different from ordinary helpers, and they even have some power in their hands. It's better now. Just because they don't come to see Sun Dutou, they will be expelled. This is really a serious matter.
At this time, Huang Qi and the others were really scared, and they all cried and begged for mercy: "Sun Dutou, please spare your life. I know your mistake. We will never dare to disobey orders in the future..." The other officers also felt this in their hearts. The feeling of tightness, and the feeling of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys is really uncomfortable.
After being stunned for a while, Lu Fang persuaded him again: "Du Tou, no, you will lose the hearts of your brothers if you do this. It will be difficult to run errands in the future."
"I would rather let them blame me than a group of subordinates who are unwilling to listen to my orders." Sun Turuo glanced at Lu Fang pointedly and said, leaving no room for accommodation.
"Sun Dutou, in fact, they are also doing things for the people in our yamen." Seeing that his intercession was useless, Lu Fang could only move out the backstage: "The person who owed the debt to Zhang Laosi was the one who owed money to the yamen." Si family, he is Liao Tongzhi’s close confidant... "
"What does Fang Cusi and Yuan Cusi have to do with me? Even if it is an errand ordered by Liao Tongzhi, they should ask me first before making a decision. How dare you make such a decision? Today, I want to give the rules to you Established!" Sun Tu said unmoved.
Everyone was even more shocked when they heard this, and then they realized how stubborn this new young man was! At the same time, a clerk who had just walked out of the yamen in a hurry heard this, his face was so gloomy that he could shed tears...
