Chapter 614: The Punishment's Response

Two days later, Luoyang City, the Ministry of Justice.

Like the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice also has four departments under the Shangshu and the Minister of the Secretariat, each in charge of some of the responsibilities, namely the Qing Officials Department, the Supervisory Department, the Tai Lieutenant Department and the Qiu Du Department.

As the name suggests, the Qing Lishu Department is like the Ministry of Revenue, which is in charge of the criminal and prison affairs of all prefectures and counties in the world. It is considered the most powerful department in the Ministry of Justice. The Supervisory Office is responsible for arresting important criminals and has the responsibility to manage the public security of the capital. At least they can arrest prisoners in the city with the ticket. The Prison Office is naturally to govern the Tianzhuo, and its subordinates can share the same people with the Supervisory Office. As for the Qiu Chu Department, although it sounds like it is only responsible for the Qiu Ding, their responsibilities include interrogating the captured prisoners and investigating major cases. It is considered that the power in the Ministry of Justice is only under the Qing Lishu Department.

Of course, this division is just a superficial article and only represents your official status. If you really have any errands, you have to follow the orders you have. Just like two days ago, Yang Yan, as the Minister of the Prison Division, was ordered to go to Yanshi to get people, because this is what the Minister of the Secretariat meant.

Today, in the official hall of the Minister of the Secretariat, Yang Yan and several major officials of the Fourth Division gathered together. Everyone looked a little panicked, lowered their heads, and did not dare to have any contact with the Minister of the Supreme Leader.

Zhang Qiu, as the left minister of the Ministry of Justice, really couldn't see the solemnity that he should be in charge of the world's criminal prison in terms of his appearance. He had a handsome and elegant face, three strands of beards hanging on his chest, and he was wearing a good skin. On weekdays, he also smiled, and told people who were unfamiliar with him would be close to him, and he felt that this was a very easy-to-talk person.

But only colleagues and subordinates who really worked with him would know how vicious and harsh this elegant Lord Zhang was. He could even easily kill all three tribes in his warm smile. His subordinates were really afraid of him to the core.

At this time, although he still had a smile on his face, his eyes were not warm at all. He just swept his head on everyone, which made the doctors and the Yuanwai Lang silent and his breathing pauses.

"Yang Yan..." Finally, after a silence pressure, he called out. Yang Yan's body suddenly shook, and he immediately stood up and knelt down: "Sir, please spare me, the minister, I know that I'm wrong..."

"Oh? You know what's wrong?" Zhang Qiu continued to ask with a smile, his tone that looked particularly gentle.

But this made Yang Yan even more frightened, and a cold sweat broke out on his back: "The officials... the officials were not good at doing things, and Tie Yun and others were attacked by evil people, but they did not do their job well..."

Zhang Qiu laughed: "This shouldn't be just your blame..."

Without raising his eyes, the inspector's chief officer and Yuanwailang knelt down decisively: "The official knows his mistake, so please punish him."

Then several other officials followed up and knelt in one row, saying that it was their fault that led to this mutation. It was not until this time that the smile on Zhang Qiu's face slowly disappeared, his eyes became sharp, and he quickly stabbed everyone's heads: "Only one of them knows their responsibilities until now, what have you done? I have reminded you before that Qiu Jue is about to be up, so you must not relax at all, but what about you?

"A small local magistrate made you play around, not only throwing an important clue out, but also getting us into our own people. Have you ever thought about how much trouble it would be for our Ministry of Justice and His Highness Yong if this matter is really leaked?

"Everyone thinks that with His Highness Yong as his backer, no one dares to provoke him, so they are self-righteous and relax everything. This is your fate! I tell you that although it is just this little flaw, the Thousand Mile Dike is destroyed by an ant hole, and it is difficult to guarantee that no one will make any articles from it!

"Well, do you know that he has many backers in the capital? Once he really finds some evidence, do you think he dares to make a big deal or even sue His Majesty? And Yanshi County, for the sake of convenience, you really dare to think and do it. Now that there is a big trouble, I want my official to ask the palace to cure the aftermath for you. It's really outrageous!"

This lesson was harsh and made all the subordinates curse, which made them even more frightened. They kowtowed and admitted their mistakes. Then they sweared again and again, saying that they would arrange the follow-up matters properly. However, Zhang Qiu still seemed to be worried about this and wanted to deal with everyone strictly.

At this moment, a greeting sounded outside the door: "I have met Your Highness..." Then a very friendly voice: "Get up." It was the Minister of Justice, the Yongwang Sun Lin, who arrived.

As a prince and prince, Sun Lin's status in the capital is needless to say. With his status as favored by the emperor, he can even be on par with the prince, and even more so - after all, the prince has not actually served as a minister of a certain department now.

But as the Minister of Justice, Sun Lin was actually not too involved in errands. On the one hand, this is due to his ability. After all, the matter of punishment and prison is too professional and requires specialized talents, so he only raised his head; on the other hand, it is also for the sake of his own reputation in the court and among the people.

The Ministry of Justice was too cruel and always convicted and murdered. It was not very nice to spread to the outside. How could he always be related to the murder?

So although he was given the title of Shangshu, his responsibilities were often done by two ministers. Of course, with his mind and skill, all subordinates of the Ministry of Justice, including the two ministers, were in his control. They were also extremely respectful to the chief officer who could take the prince at any time. The entire Ministry of Justice was truly a solid piece.

At this moment, he suddenly arrived. Even Zhang Qiu was no longer as terrifying as before. Instead, he smiled and hurried out to greet him, and brought his subordinates to greet him, but was waved by King Yong. He started to scream: "Get up, I already know what happened this time, I guess you are quite embarrassed, right?" When he said this, he still had that kind smile, and he couldn't tell at all annoyed.

There is a saying that only those newly promoted and without any real power or prestige will act harshly in front of their subordinates, and the boss who is truly confident and prestige is the most approachable. This statement is at least fully reflected in the yamen of the Ministry of Justice. Zhang Qiu is like this, and even more so, as the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty. He is always gentle and friendly to his subordinates, whether they are the attendant or the selves or a minor official.

His performance was also easy to infect everyone, which made Yang Yan and others finally let go of their hearts, and then they saluted again with gratitude.

Zhang Qiu became calm at this time, so he briefly mentioned the incident, and then he thought about it: "Sir, this matter does cause a lot of trouble to our Ministry of Justice, but fortunately the situation has not completely lost control and can be remedied. Please give us a chance, and the subordinates will definitely do the matter properly." In the yamen, they have already called each other a relationship between superiors and subordinates, which has become a habit.

Sun Lin smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous. I'm not here to provoke a rioter. As long as the matter is handled properly, there will be no problem. Yang Yan, you have experienced this personally, what do you think?"

Yang Yan quickly bent down and said, "Sir, the official thought that even if Zhang Kang really fell into someone's hands, there should be no threat now, because we have dealt with the matter of Chu Shiwu.

"The only thing that can be considered is Tie Yun, but his knowledge is limited, and he may not have the courage to testify in public... His family is still in the capital and has been taken care of. Even if it is for the sake of his own family, he dare not say nonsense."

Sun Lin nodded slightly: "What about Li Ling? What about you come and go with him, what do you think of him, and is this matter the situation he made?" Obviously, although after many years, he still has a deep impression of Li Ling.

Yang Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The official thought that this matter has little to do with him, but he just happened to run into it."

"How can I see it?"

"There are some stupid opinions of the officials, please listen to it. First, Li Ling has not been here in the capital for a long time, but according to the clues we know, Zhang Kang's sudden jump and other arrangements have been at least several months, so it must not be his arrangement; second, he is a foreign prefect, and only has a dozen entourages to come to Beijing. He has no ability or courage to hurt my troops in the Ministry of Justice. Lord, perhaps he doesn't know that Tieyun is a good player in the Ministry of Justice, and the idle people can't do anything to him. Third, this matter is really not good for him. I really can't imagine why he would do everything and do anything to my Ministry of Justice. Such a thing is not beneficial to me. I don't think Li Ling will do anything to do with me, the Ministry of Justice, and he will be enemies with the Ministry of Justice. Such a thing is not beneficial to others or oneself. I don't think Li Ling will do it..."

After this reason was presented, everyone nodded and said yes. Sun Lin nodded deeply: "No, so judging from the current situation, Li Ling was also used." After drawing this conclusion, he felt relieved.

Zhang Qiu nodded at the right time: "That's true, but the most urgent task is not to find out the person behind it, but how to ensure that Qiu will never have any more trouble."

His words made everyone's expressions look a little strange, and Sun Lin smiled: "This is easy to deal with. What you are worried about is that someone will make a fuss about Zhang Kang and Tieyun. This official has made arrangements, and someone will stare at the city gate. Once there is a suspicious person, it will be taken down. We will issue the arrest document, so Zhang Kang and others will naturally have nowhere to hide. After all, the initiative is still with us, and they are just doing some small moves from the side.

"As long as this autumn break is over, everything will be fine. What do you think?"

After he said this, everyone was more confident and clasped their fists and replied: "What the lord said is very true, this is enough to deal with!"
