Just when Li Zhengtong was complacent that he had quickly solved a case with his extraordinary wisdom, and just when the young man and the vendors were about to leave, Qin Yu's "Wait a minute" suddenly made the atmosphere in the lobby tense.

Li Zhengtong glanced at Qin Yu in confusion, wondering what Brother Yu was going to do.

Wang Zhe glanced at Qin Yu in surprise.

The vendor turned around and asked cautiously: "Sir, what are your orders?"

"Don't you know what the instructions are?" Qin Yu looked at the vendor with a smile and said to everyone: "I only came here for one thing today, and that is to be extremely fair!"

"I can't wrongly accuse a good person, and I can't let a bad person go!"

Then, Qin Yu said coldly: "Old man, you will be lenient if you confess, and strict if you resist. Do you understand?"

Seeing Qin Yu's cold eyes, the vendor knew that the matter was exposed, and he knelt down with a bang.

"Sir, I don't dare to do it anymore. I have my own reasons too!"

"My only son went missing while hunting in the mountains a few days ago. My wife and I are helpless and can only survive on this small business."

Qin Yu: "Life is difficult, and we must be honest when doing business, so that everyone can buy your candied haws with confidence, instead of making a one-time deal through this kind of deception!"

"The villain realizes his crime, and the villain will never dare to do it again!" The merchant returned the copper coins in his hand to the young man.

Li Zhengtong was confused when he heard this. What was going on? Why did the ending take a shocking turn in just a few seconds?

Li Zhengtong couldn't understand, but he was sitting in the main seat now and had the greatest power. He immediately slammed the table and said: "Since you have confessed, then tell the story of your crime honestly!"

"Don't make any omissions in the process. If I don't understand, I will chop your head off!"

Wang Zhe reminded in a low voice: "Tongzi, take it easy, that's not how you cut off your head!"

Li Zhengtong turned his head and responded in a low voice, "Don't worry, I'm just going to scare you."

Wang Zhe said no more. "Beheading" is used to scare those prisoners who really need to be retried. If it is used too much, the deterrent effect will be greatly weakened.

However, Li Zhengtong only stayed here for a long time and had little impact, so Wang Zhe said nothing more.

Li Zhengtong's effect of scaring people was very obvious. The vendor selling candied haws on a stick immediately told the story of his crime in detail.

"Before selling candied haws, the villain will look for young people on the street who look decently dressed, but not particularly flashy, and at first glance, they are not from the city. Such people have a little money in their hands, but they are not too rich. Too rich and no one to rely on in the city.”

"After selecting the target, I will tell the person to buy one and get one free for the candied haws. You can give it to him to try first."

"If he eats that bunch of candied haws, he has to buy a bunch of candied haws, and then I tell him that a bunch of candied haws costs twenty cents."

Only then did Li Zhengtong realize that this old man was engaging in forced buying and selling!

Li Zhengtong slapped the table and said angrily: "You are so bold. You have violated the law and yet you dare to come to the Yamen. Do you really think that your little trick can be hidden from the sharp eyes of this official?"

The vendor pointed at the young man and cried, "I just wanted to scare him. Who knew he would have to come to the Yamen if he met such a stubborn person?"

Li Zhengtong looked at the young man again, "Why didn't you tell the story clearly at the beginning?"

The young man was silent for a moment and said hesitantly: "I saw that this old man dared to go to the Yamen. He was so confident. I thought this was the rule in your Wusheng City..."

Wang Zhe noticed something was wrong and asked: "Wusheng City belongs to the Liang Kingdom, and all the rules are the same as other cities. Are you not from the Liang Kingdom? Do you have an entry certificate?"

"I am from the Liang Kingdom!" the young man said hurriedly: "But I have lived in seclusion in the mountains with my master since I was a child. This is the first time I have entered the city, so I don't know much about it."

Wang Zhe nodded. In the world of immortality, there are many hermits like this. This is also the biggest governance problem facing Liang State.

These hermits have been away from the city for too long. Many of them do not understand the laws promulgated by the Liang Kingdom at all. Even if some people understand them, they do not want to abide by them.

Even though the Liang Kingdom's court was powerful, the territory of Liang Kingdom was too vast, and some hermits were so powerful that Liang Kingdom was unable to effectively restrain them.

Fortunately, most of these hermits lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests, which had little impact on the public security of Liang State, and the two sides were in a state of harmony.

Wang Zhe saw that young people should also be honest and responsible people, so he didn't say much.

"You can leave now. If you encounter anything unreasonable in Wusheng City, you can ask for help from the patrolling soldiers!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Wang Zhe looked at the peddler again and said: "Although you are living in embarrassment, it is illegal to cheat and kidnap. Now your food sales certificate will be detained for seven days as punishment!"

"Not only your son, but more than ten people have suddenly disappeared recently. The city lord has sent a large number of people into the mountain to search, and reported it to the court. Someone will come to deal with this matter soon. Don't worry."

"Thank you, sir!"

Hearing this punishment, the vendor immediately breathed a sigh of relief. To seize the food sales license, you must have a certificate to seize it. He didn't have such a thing at all.

...

After the young man walked out of the Yamen, he walked around the city again and then quietly left Wusheng City.

Soon, the young man appeared in a ruined temple in the mountains and forests.

"Young Master, are you here?"

Several black-robed men appeared in front of the young man silently.

The young man nodded and ordered: "There won't be too much resentment in this city, so there is no need to arrange too many people here."

"Young master, how did you know..." The black-robed man's voice stopped abruptly, because the young man had already looked at him with cold eyes.

The black-robed man who spoke immediately knelt down, "Young master, I know my mistake."

The other black-robed men also bowed hurriedly, "Young master, calm down!"

The young man's face was cold, completely different from his temperament in the government office, as if he had changed into a different person.

"For my words, you only need to obey, not question, understand?"

"I understand, I understand!"

"But it doesn't hurt to tell you." The young man turned around and turned his back to the black-robed men.

"To judge how much resentment a city has, you only need to know whether the judge of this city is a self-righteous idiot. I just went to the government office of Wusheng City. The fat man in charge is indeed an idiot, but the person behind him is not stupid and can give the people the fairness they want."

"With such people, there will not be too many intensified conflicts in this city, and we naturally won't get what we want."

"Let's go, no need to waste time here."

"The next destination, Mo City, I hope you won't let me down!"
