Immediately, Li Benxin stood up and praised with a serious look on his face: "Good! He is worthy of the title of Jing Lei Great God Catcher, worthy of the name Jing Lei, worthy of the word Jing Lei. At the beginning, I hired Luofan because I took a fancy to him. Fearless and courageous to move forward. Officials of the dynasty have been in high positions for many years, but they have looked at each other and made no achievements, let alone the courage and courage to take action. Luofan was born in an official school and entered the officialdom by arresting heads. In a short period of time , has made countless great contributions, and he is the role model for our dynasty. And for this role model, I want everyone in the world to know his reputation. Didn’t you just say that Luo Fan is not a member of the inner palace, less than the second grade? Well, now The king personally announced that he would be conferred the title of Jing Lei Great God Captor Luo Fan, the second grade Jing Lei Chief Divine Catcher of Tianwei Mansion, and be given a golden dragon medal. With this gold medal, he can mobilize 5,000 troops from any military government in the world, and can supervise all officials in Dragon City. ! Officials below the first rank can be detained first and then punished. Officials below the fifth rank can be executed first and then punished!"
"Ah! The second-level master hunter! The golden dragon card! Kill it first and show it later! This! This!"
The officials inside and outside the government were all shocked and stared blankly. A notorious living hell, a small government official on East Street, in just one month, he became the second-grade chief arrester, and he also had the responsibilities of dispatching troops and supervising hundreds of officials. From ancient times to the present, no one has had such power and glory! It seems that Li Benxin really wants to use this living hell to frighten Dragon City!
"Thank you to King Tiandu for the reward. From now on, Luofan is willing to burn his body in repayment and will never let down the great favor of the dynasty!" Luofan immediately knelt down and knelt down to thank him.
Zhang Tianjun brought the gold medal, and Luo Fan held it up high, showing it to all the officials. His arrogant look made the officials feel not envious, but disgusted, and there was an unconscious chill in their hearts.
The court dispersed, and Li Benxin left Luo Fan alone.
Li Benxin smiled and said: "Luofan, you are the first person from ancient times to enjoy the golden token and the title of Thunder Chief Catcher. How do you feel?"
Luo Fan smiled proudly and said: "Luofan thanked King Tiandu for his gift. I just feel elated now. This is also the happiest and most honored day in my life. I will definitely work harder in the future and never let down King Tiandu's expectations. "
"Okay! I'm relieved that you have such an awareness. However, I'm still a little worried. You said you could clear Tao Feng's case in one day. I'm afraid that's not possible, right?" Li Benxin asked.
Luofan said: "Reporting to King Tiandu, Tao Feng's case can be long or short, complicated or simple. The key lies in King Tiandu's idea. If King Tiandu wants to get to the bottom of it, all the people involved in the court will be involved. If it is found out, then this case will be long. If King Tiandu still doesn't want to touch the four major families or other wealthy families, then this case can be short."
"Oh, you are so confident. Since you said you would investigate it in one day, you must know the length of this case. Then I will see your performance. Go ahead."
After Luofan left, Zhang Tianjun stepped forward, puzzled: "King, you think too highly of this Luofan. You gave him a second rank title and gave him a gold token. In this way, not only the officials of the outer government, but also the officials of the inner government will also There was a lot of discussion at the meeting.”
Li Benxin was in a mood and laughed and said: "What Tianjun said is reasonable. However, don't you think that the existence of people like Luofan, who makes everyone fearful in the outer palace and vigilant in the inner palace, is a good thing for the dynasty?" I once met a man who likes to hunt with dogs. He has many dogs, but he will choose one of them and put the most dazzling and loud collar on it, full of golden bells. That dog wears the collar , are often the most courageous in chasing prey. Other dogs will also try their best to catch up in order to get the collar. The dog wearing a collar is often the most dangerous and the most vulnerable to injury or death. At that time, the hunter will Move the collar to the next dog. You see what I mean?”
"I understand. Everyone in the inner palace also needs the encouragement of people like Luofan to have the motivation to work hard. The dynasty really needs such talents. Wang is using a good card." Zhang Tianjun said with a smile.
…
After leaving the palace, everyone went back to their homes. Luo Fan has already come to the Imperial Guard Prison to see Tao Feng.
Dozens of members of Tao Feng's family, as well as hundreds of servants of the Tao family, were all crowded in the cell. Everyone was terrified, but they still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that the four major families would show up to save the Tao family. But Tao Feng knew in his heart that there was no chance for the Tao family to stand up when faced with an opponent like Luo Fan. His only idea now was to hold on to the blood foundation of the Tao family as much as possible.
In the trial hall, Tao Feng was taken away. At this moment, Luofan was sitting in a big chair, playing with the golden dragon card given by King Tiandu in his hand.
Tao Bao Bao's face was withered and sad. He stood in the hall like an old tree that was about to fall. He no longer knelt down and saluted, but slightly held his hands in his hands: "Congratulations to Mr. Jing Lei. You are so majestic and have a good future. Unexpectedly, my Tao family can exchange for this." Your future is boundless."
Luo Fan smiled and said, "I have a bright future and have little to do with your Tao family. King Tiandu needs me to deal with the four major families, and only I can deal with it. This is the foundation of my foothold. If one day the four major families The family is gone, and Li Benxin may not keep me. Everyone understands this, and there is no need to say it. Let me tell you, I don’t have much time, what are you going to do next? "
"My family is gone, what else can I do. As long as I can keep my Tao family's descendants safe, I will do everything as you say. But if you can't keep my Tao family, then there will be a public trial tomorrow, and I don't care if the fish or the net are destroyed." Tao Feng was already confused at this moment. With determination to die, he wants to play the final game with Luofan.
"I'll put forward the conditions, and you'll decide. Your case, whether it's me, King Tiandu, or the four major families, all want to end it as soon as possible, and it can't affect too many people, otherwise it won't be concluded. So, you and the four major families I don’t need to interfere with the involvement of wealthy families. However, after all, it is a major case, and you must give an explanation. In a moment, write down a batch of subordinates and officials who participated in your smuggling, murder, and other crimes near Longcheng. Just write Those who are notorious and have committed many crimes, I will cut off their heads in the first trial tomorrow, and this matter will be over."
"What about my family? If you want me to plead guilty, I can help you get rid of this matter. I don't want anything to happen to any of my children or grandchildren. Can you do it?" Tao Feng frowned coldly.
"According to what you have done, your family will be exterminated. However, as an official in the same dynasty, of course I have to consider you. If they are under fourteen years old, I will forgive them and give them one hundred thousand taels of silver, and Report to the King of Tiandu, let your grandson inherit a third-grade marquis and move to your hometown of Huacheng, so as to ensure the prosperity of their descendants. Over the age of fourteen, the crime will be reduced by one level, and those who deserve to be killed will be exiled, and those who should do thirty Those who have been jailed for 15 years will be changed to fifteen years. Are you satisfied with this?" Luo Fan.
When Tao Feng heard Luofan's conditions, he felt a little relieved, but more sad. He had tens of millions of wealth, but he could only end up like this, but it was only a hundred thousand taels, which made him a little touched. Unavoidably tempted, he thought about it and asked: "Then my son can be saved?" "You didn't understand, right? I said it was a lesser crime. Do you think your two sons should only be saved?" Kill once?" Luo Fan.
"No! You can't kill them. I know you have the ability to save them. Their life or death is just a matter of your words. I beg you to spare my two sons a way to live. They are still young and should not die with me. Please Your Majesty, there are so many of them, sentence them to exile. I will definitely be grateful to you." Tao Feng immediately cried and begged.
"Shut up! If you follow the laws of this dynasty, no one in your family will survive. Don't think that I don't know that your two sons sold private salt, colluded with gangs along the way, and massacred countless people. Even the Tiandu Dynasty's policemen were killed by you. There are a lot of assassinations. Also, what disgusting things you do in daily life are not enough to kill you ten times. What qualifications do you have to intercede for them! What conditions do you think I really need to negotiate with you to let your whole family die? It's easy for me to stay in this prison. Now, put away the hypocrisy of being a loving father and a filial son, and cooperate honestly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and ruthless, and you will never have a chance to speak again!" Luo Fan.
Tao Feng was so frightened that he immediately stopped crying and fell to the ground with a sigh: "I understand, I will cooperate."
…
Xue Yang returned home, still unhappy. King Tiandu confiscated a large sum of gold and silver from the Tao family, but he did not call himself to discuss it, and he did not discuss the whereabouts of the gold and silver with him. It seems that Li Ben is not interested in explaining this matter to himself. In the future, he, the military prime minister, may gradually be marginalized.
"Master, it's time to eat." Zhao Xue walked to the yard and called Xue Yang with a smile.
The whole family sat at the dinner table again and started laughing and talking again.
"Wow, we have just been granted the title of Jing Lei Chief Divine Catcher. Luofan has become the Jing Lei Chief Divine Catcher, a second-grade official, and he has also transferred troops to the dragon card. He is about to take off. The Tao family was raided all of a sudden. I don’t know who the unlucky guy will be next." He Mingming said with a smile full of sour envy.
"Yeah, it's so surprising. This Luofan usually fights and kills, why did he suddenly think of checking for illegal salt? It's not impossible." Zhao Xue was also puzzled.
"It's all Master's fault." Xue Yang said unconsciously.
"Why are you blaming the master? Could it be that the master asked Luo Fan to investigate Tao Mansion?" Everyone asked in confusion.
"Of course not. Stop talking and hurry up and eat. From now on, everyone should talk less when eating." Xue Yang said with a depressed look.
At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of a uniform of armor, and saw Luofan coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion with eight Jinjia Guards from the Forbidden Army.
Xue Yang and others walked out of the door, only to see Luo Fan hanging a golden dragon medal on his waist and the imperial army behind him with a majestic and noisy appearance. It was really different from the past.
Xue Yang was very unhappy when he saw Luo Fan, "Luo Fan! What are you doing here? Could it be that you have been promoted and come to me to show off your power?"
Luo Fan cupped his hands and smiled: "I don't dare, I don't dare. How dare Luo Fan be disrespectful to the military prime minister. Tao Feng will be put on trial tomorrow, and I only have one day to complete the case. I will now arrest the entire city involved in Tao Feng's case. We are short of men, and we have come to the Divine Capture Division to mobilize troops. Sir, please ask a few of your disciples to help."
"Arrest people? Oops, I'm so bored right now, I can finally show off my skills!" He Mingming said happily after hearing this.
However, Xue Yang waved his hand to stop him and said coldly: "You have the Trooping Dragon Tablet, which allows you to mobilize the imperial guards, the city protection department, and various ministries. Why bother looking for the Shenqi Division. The Shenqi Division is responsible for the Tianxiahui and the Tianbao Division treasury case. There’s no time to spare. You’d better find someone else.”
Luo Fan smiled: "Hey, Tianxiahui, the treasury case is a matter for the future. Right now, the Tao Feng case is the key. At this point, I don't believe in the abilities of other yamen, but I admire the abilities of everyone in the Shenzhen Division. . What's more, if it weren't for Xue Yang, I wouldn't have thought of catching Tao Feng, and I wouldn't have the glory I have today. Due to circumstances and reasons, I have to take care of you no matter what. We all get the credit together."
"You! We don't need this credit. If you don't come to my prime minister's house in the future, you will not be welcome in the prime minister's house!" Xue Yang stuttered angrily, pointing at Luo Fan and scolding.
