Leng Shangshu said indifferently: "This matter is not the responsibility of the Punishment Department. It needs to be resolved by the Shuntian Prefecture. If you want to sue the dignitaries, you should go to the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen. Her husband will not be in the Punishment's prison."
The Minister of Punishment shouted: "If the people in the capital have something to report to the yamen of the Punishment Department, who has any spare time!"
Mao Dali said: "You, you dog officials who are guarded by officials! It's so deceiving! Sister-in-law Niu, we won't sue. It shouldn't be here, and none of these officials can be counted on."
Sister-in-law Niu has been crying since she entered the door, and her voice has not stopped until now. Hearing Mao Dali's words, he cried even more sadly: "Our mother and two have no food or clothing at home. If he is gone, I will not live!"
Su Xiao couldn't bear to see it, so he whispered: "Mr. Leng, we might as well..."
"This is the law."
Leng Shangshu's expression didn't change in the slightest from beginning to end, he just said quietly: "This officer is going to take Xiaohan to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and I will leave this matter to you." This sentence was said to the waiter of the Ministry of Punishment and the others behind him. , is obviously very indifferent to Mrs. Niu and the farmers.
Mao Dali said angrily: "Let's go, we can't see how domineering these dog officials look." Angrily and others helped Mrs. Niu up, and they were about to go out.
"Where to go?"
But still cold book.
Mao Dali said: "What? You don't care about this case and still don't let go?"
Leng Shangshu said lightly, "How can you leave before you are punished?"
"You, what did you say?"
Leng Shangshu is still indifferent: "You and other thirteen people privately broke into the yamen of the Punishment Department and made a lot of noise. According to my court regulations, people who enter the official gate without notice and make a noise will be beaten with ten sticks." His tone was as calm as ever. , is not different from when I chatted with Su Xiao just now.
He saw the tragic situation of the eldest sister-in-law of the Niu family, but he seemed to turn a blind eye, as if he had no feeling at all. And ordered to beat, completely without hesitation.
Even more frightening, he seemed to be serious.
As soon as the voice fell, more than 30 burly men, all dressed as yamen, poured out of the classroom. Apparently, he had noticed the situation here just now, but he didn't dare to move a little without the instructions of Lord Shang Shu.
Leng Shangshu just finished speaking, and immediately went up to arrest these peasants. These burly men are really martial artists who practice martial arts. Going up to catch these farmers seems like a fuss, and they knock them down with one punch.
The situation changed drastically, and Su Xiao stood there, not knowing what to do.
After the yamen put down the farmers, they all turned over, one person pressed it, and the other picked up the ruthless stick of water and fire that was put aside. Hands up and down the stick, hit when you say hit. Suddenly there were screams in the front yard.
A few peasants are sturdy enough, but Mrs. Niu suffers. She was beaten so hard that on August 15th there was a series of loud beatings. Contrasted with her screams, the scene was extremely miserable.
Ten sticks are quick things, but the consequences are serious.
Twelve peasants were beaten to the point where their skins were ripped apart, and Mrs. Niu was even more serious. But the yamen did not give them a chance to breathe, and as soon as the fight was over, they immediately dragged them up and threw them all out at the door.
Su Xiao saw his scalp tingling. In an instant, Su Xiao felt that it was from this time that he first recognized the person Leng Shangshu Lengming.
During the whole process, Leng Shangshu's eyes were very calm, as if in his eyes, all this was natural.
How could he give such a cruel order with such a face! The other parties are all honest countrymen, and they are bullied to file a complaint. How can he!
Su Xiao was filled with righteous indignation: "She just disappeared from her husband, and she rushed in because she had nowhere to go! How could you beat her like this!"
Leng Shangshu looked at Su Xiao and said lightly, "She broke the law and should be punished."
Su Xiao said excitedly: "But she doesn't understand the law! She is just a poor person whose husband was taken away, has no food to eat, and has no thick clothes to wear in winter. After this beating, she will only deal with the law and the law. The government is even more disappointed. Why are you not willing to deal with it as appropriate?"
"That's not what I should do. She should go to Shuntian Mansion."
"What Shuntianfu can do, why do you..."
"This is the punishment department."
Leng Shangshu interrupted Su Xiao's excited tone, and the tone was still indifferent.
"This is the Ministry of Punishment, which is in charge of criminal names in the world. Behind me is the code of this country."
Leng Shangshu said quietly: "If under my hands, anyone who breaks the law can escape, does the law of this country have any dignity?"
"… "
Su Xiao heard half of it, and she was sweating coldly behind her back. Su Xiao never thought about these questions.
"Everyone should have their place. It's mine, and I'll keep it. You too."
After Leng Shangshu finished speaking, he took a few steps forward and said without looking back: "What you want to accomplish is your imperial order. Follow me to inspect the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, now."

Chapter 18
Officials Yamen.
This place is completely different from the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. There are two rows of yamen in front of the door, all of them in high spirits. The personnel department is the head of the six departments, and the officials in charge are most concerned about the promotion of exams and classes. Therefore, except for special circumstances in wartime, in general, the personnel department is rich in oil and water, and the wealth of officials has always been the crown of the six departments. . Therefore, the yamen invited by the yamen of the Ministry of Personnel are all warriors who really know martial arts, and some are even disciples from famous sects. Because the salary here is unmatched among the major yamen in the imperial court, many martial arts masters have joined. Therefore, the proportion of masters in the yamen of the Ministry of Officials is also the highest among the six departments.
This place is in charge of the lifeline of the civil officials in the whole country, and even more so, Zhang Chunfeng, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhang Shangshu, is personable, courteous, courteous, and elegant, and can be regarded as a model for hundreds of officials. He was born in the two list of jinshi, the talent of the champion. Since he was inscribed on the Golden List at the age of 20, he has been on the rise all the way. Before the age of 30, he was the prince's grandfather, the teacher of today's sage, and the elder of the two dynasties in the court. With excellent qualifications, only the elder Li Si, a veteran of the three dynasties, can be compared. But Li Cheng is much older than Zhang Shangshu, and he will be 70 years old this year, so many people think that the next prime minister is Zhang Shangshu.
As a result, the Yamen of the Ministry of Personnel has always been regarded by the officials of the imperial court as the most powerful among the Six Ministry.
Zhang Shangshu pointed to the plaque inscribed by the emperor in the official government office, with a deep emotion.
"I am a person in the Ministry of Personnel. The appointment and removal, examinations, awards, promotions, and transfers of officials in charge of a country are the most important foundations of the country... Well, look, behind this government office, there are officials from all over the country. There is no official position after the Ministry of Personnel. This is the cornerstone of the running of the country. The reason why everything can coexist in harmony is because we are here... Yanling, look at this old man... So if I am the head of the Ministry of Personnel and Yamen If something goes wrong, then the whole country will be disrupted. Careful, patient and careful are the highest standards for our personnel department to abide by... Yan Ling, what is the teacher talking to you... Since the emperor has a decree for you to come to the personnel department to study , if nothing else, you have to learn how to be patient first—you **** enough! If you hit that wooden pile again, the old man will kill you! "
This is the first time Zhang Shangshu has been rude today.
Say it again, Zhang Shangshu, personable and elegant...
"You're relying on a demon! You can't stop it! The old man chopped your hand off!"
Tang Ye said calmly, "Teacher Zhang, wait a moment, I'll finish this punch."
"What you said, it's just this punch. Eh, wait, where's the guqin in my house? How did I wipe your wooden dummy? You dismantled the antique xylophone in the old man's house and used it to make wood. Human pile!! This is an ancient relic of the previous dynasty, and it is worth thousands of gold, but you actually... Hey! Don't hit, don't hit, it will be broken after one hit... Hey! If you say don't hit you, stop it."
Tang Ye slammed his fist on the wooden pile, making a dull sound like a watermelon falling to the ground. A circle of airflow spread out on the surface of the wooden dummy, but it was unscathed.
Then Tang Ye showed a confident smile.
"Teacher is fine. This is the Liuhe Quan of the Six Doors. The student has reached the third level, and he can disperse his energy outside the object. Qiu did not commit any crimes."
Teacher Zhang hurriedly ran to see the guqin that Tangye used to play, and stroked nervously up and down.
"Oh, oh, luckily it's okay—"
Just after Teacher Zhang finished touching it, there was a sudden clatter—the wooden dummy was broken in half from the inside.
"Why isn't this broken!"
