I saw Xiao Rui walking to the door and bowing his hands to the people who were watching, "Dear elders of Chang'an, I, Xiao Rui, the sixth-rank imperial censor of Yushitai, today found out that the son of the Duke of Mi, the consort of Feng Yandao, was forced into prostitution in the village of fish and meat. , bullying men and dominating women, and has been poisoning the people of the Tang Dynasty for a long time. Therefore, I came here to capture this beast and eliminate harm for the people."
"Okay, well done Xiao Yushi. Feng Yan said that this guy is nothing. He can do whatever he wants with his power. He should die long ago!" All the people clapped their hands and applauded.
Xiao Rui was puzzled: "But I, the Censor, only have the duty of admonishment, and do not have the power to investigate cases and convict people. So please do me a favor and escort this animal to the Ministry of Punishment with me. After the Ministry of Punishment has reviewed the witnesses and evidence, it will be decided." We must get rid of this wolf and do harm to the people. Otherwise, people will say that I, the Yushitai, acted beyond my authority."
The people were very enthusiastic and willing to help, so a group of people walked towards the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice carrying the naked seal.
"What are you doing? Under the bright sky, you privately tortured the people of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Yushi, do you know your crime?" At the entrance of the Xingbu Yamen, the on-duty Vice Minister of the Xingbu came out and wanted to stop Xiao Rui.
Xiao Rui once again showed the testimony and evidence in front of the people, "Wang Shilang, with the personal and material evidence, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, what punishment should be given for such a heinous crime?"
Wang Shilang said angrily: "Xiao Yushi, investigation, evidence collection and sentencing are all matters of my Criminal Department. You, the Yushitai, have overstepped your authority! Give me the Feng Yandao and the witnesses and evidence, and you guys retreat, how about that?"
Xiao Rui burst out laughing, turned around and asked loudly: "Master An, I heard that you can memorize the laws of the Tang Dynasty backwards and forwards. Can you tell everyone what the punishment should be for the crime of sealing the Tao?"
The chief clerk under Xiao Rui stood up to support the chief officer and said loudly: "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if you only seek wealth and kill one person, it is a capital crime and you should be executed in the future. It is said that there are thirty-eight deaths and forcing a good girl to become a prostitute. , human trafficking, torturing people... He has numerous crimes, but his subordinates are stupid, and I don’t know how to sentence him for multiple crimes? Should I kill him several times more? "
Turning around, Xiao Rui said sternly to the Minister Wang: "You don't have to thank us at the Censor's Office. It's our job to check out the evidence and help catch the prisoner. The rest of the work, will you do it or will I do it?" "
You, you... bold Yushi Xiao, you set up a private court and beat him to death. You act like this and exceed your authority to take people. Do you know the laws of the Tang Dynasty? I'm going to the Yushitai to ask Dr. Wei to find out.
"Looking for Wei Heimeian?" Xiao Rui looked at the other party jokingly, stretched out his hand to grab Master An's book, "Come and tell him, what is Wei's attitude?"
This, this... the chief clerk was dumbfounded and thought to himself, how did Xiao Yushi know that I had met Dr. Wei?
With no choice but to do so, Master An bravely shouted loudly: "Doctor Wei said that the Yushitai fully supports Xiao Yushi's handling of the case and will never let anyone who commits heinous crimes go free."
good! Well done to the Yushitai!
The people applauded one after another, and everyone was furious. The Minister of Punishment waved his hands to no avail, and his face turned red with anxiety.
"You, you...well, you Yushitai is so capable, I will leave this case to you. I will go to His Majesty to reason." Wang Shilang turned and left.
Xiao Rui laughed wildly and said: "Go, go, your Majesty is my father-in-law, he will not help you."
He seems to be a dandy, but at this moment, in the eyes of the people, he is reasonable and enjoyable!
Turning his head, Xiao Rui looked at Feng Yan who was lying on the ground like a dead dog with unkind eyes and said, "Your Feng family is really tough enough. They left you at the gate of the Criminal Department Yamen and they didn't even dare to deal with you?"
Feng Yandao's eyes were fierce and he said: "You'd better let me go. Even the Ministry of Punishment doesn't dare to care. Are you a sixth-grade censor? Don't forget, I'm also the consort."
Snapped! Xiao Rui slapped her hard, "Bah! You have the nerve to say that you are the consort? When you are not at the princess's house, you spend time in the brothel? Who do you think the princess is?"
Feng Yandao snorted coldly: "You think the princess doesn't know?"
Oh, you are so awesome, you can even control the princess?
Chief An took Xiao Rui and persuaded him: "It's almost done. Let's take this person back and lock him up first. When His Majesty makes a decision, the matter will be settled."
Xiao Rui sneered and said: "Wait? Can you ask these people if they can wait? Feng Yan said? Your Feng family covers the sky with one hand, no one dares to care? Very good! No one makes the decision, I make the decision. If God doesn't accept you, I will accept you. Today I, Xiao Rui, have overstepped my authority once. At worst, I will kill you. I will not be the censor anymore. Come on, bring me the sword!"
What? ? You, Xiao Rui, how dare you... Seeing the murderous look on Xiao Rui's face, Feng Yandao panicked.
At this time, one of the victimized women rushed forward and hugged Xiao Rui's leg: "No, sir! You are a good official and can make the final decision for us to redress our grievances. It is difficult for this little girl to die in retribution. For such a wicked person, I have ruined you." The future is not worth it.”
"Yes! My dear, please get out of the way and let me kill my enemy! Feng Yan said, if you kill my parents and brother, I will die with you." Another woman rushed out and wanted to strangle Feng Yan to death.
"I come……"
"I come……"
In an instant, seven or eight female victims all rushed towards him like crazy.
Quickly, quickly pull away, pull away... Xiao Rui shouted.
A group of officials from the Yushitai swarmed up and grabbed the woman one after another.
Xiao Rui was so angry, "A bunch of idiots, why are you holding me down? Go and pull away the people on Feng Yandao's side... Don't let Feng Yandao be strangled to death by them."
A group of people were busy and wasted a lot of effort, and finally rescued Feng Yandao.
Xiao Rui smiled bitterly and persuaded the woman at his feet: "Okay, girl, let me go. My ankles will hurt from being pinched."
The people watching burst into laughter, saying to themselves that this young Xiao Yushi had no official airs at all and was too close to the people.
Xiao Rui glanced at Feng Yandao, stuck out his tongue and panted loudly, almost being strangled to death. He was so frightened that the guy's face turned pale, as if he had come back from hell.
"Everyone, I want to make one point clear. The arrest of this person today is not for any of you personal vendettas, but for national law! Our Yushitai punishes rape and eliminates evil, and protects the people of the entire Tang Dynasty. If this person is allowed to die in your hands , that doesn’t make sense, doesn’t it mean that our Yushitai is helping you avenge your personal revenge?”
This truth was not only recognized by the people, but also the officials at Yushitai were relieved. I originally thought that Xiao Yushi had a reckless personality, but I didn't expect that there were subtleties in the roughness. I was just worried blindly.
After Xiao Rui finished speaking, he walked to Feng Yandao and squatted down, whispering: "Did you see it? How many sins have you done? So many people are looking for your life today! If it weren't for me, you would have died eight times. Please advise. Just say something useful and buy your own life."
"You, me...all my three flower houses, ten stores, and one thousand acres of farmland are given to me..."
Xiao Rui slapped him, "Pah! I'm short of money? This is business, do you think I'm blackmailing you? Have you ever done any bad things? It's best to do it honestly and quickly, otherwise these victims will strangle you to death. I I don’t care.”
"Don't, don't, don't, let me tell you, my father deliberately went against your father. He agreed with Song Guogong's political views at the court meeting, but secretly asked the emperor to refute him, which ruined many good things for Song Guogong..."
Oops! Any unexpected gains? Not only Xiao Rui, but all the people and officials opened their eyes wide, and the people watching at the Penal Department Yamen also calmed down, as if they were watching a show.
