I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Dongshi is not far from Changling Yiting, but within a quarter of an hour, Jin Han and Zhang Shaodong were already standing in front of the door.

The guard guarding the gate recognized Master Zhang Shao, and he could also see that the people around him were dressed in luxurious and unusual clothes, so he was very polite in his words.

"This is the eldest son of the Jin family in Xinghuafang." Master Zhang Shaodong announced his family status on behalf of Jin Han: "Today I was robbed by Jiangyang thieves in Dongshi, and all the followers he brought were injured, so I came here to report to the official. "

The young master of the Jin family was robbed in Dongshi? There is actually a gangster? The guard was startled and trotted in to report.

It was originally a holiday before the fifteenth day, and only subordinate officers were assigned to take turns to be on duty every day. However, because of the new official taking office in Changling City, both the chief minister and the newly replaced Changling Lieutenant were all on duty every day. Come to Dian Mao to do your job, just to show your face in front of your new boss.

I heard that Mr. Jin Dalang was robbed in Dongshi. The others were fine, but Bai Ming's head was buzzing, and a bad breath filled his chest.

Public security and theft detection fall under his jurisdiction, and there is absolutely no way he can avoid it if something goes wrong. Not to mention Jin Dalangjun's identity, just looking at the episode of bandits in Dongshi, his status in the eyes of his superiors will definitely plummet.

His face turned red, and he summoned up the energy to order his police officer: "If you don't recruit all the people immediately, follow me to Dongshi to arrest people!"

After that, he saluted Xing Ting who was sitting in the hall: "Don't worry, sir, my subordinates will definitely arrest and bring that criminal thief to justice to vent his anger on Mr. Jin Dalang!"

Xing Ting's face was always serious and square, without any expression. It was only then that he spoke: "There is no need to rush. Let's call Mr. Jin Dalang to the court first. I have something to ask."

Yi Cheng Yu Qiu's eyes flashed with light. He was keenly aware that Xing Ting didn't even use the word "please" and had no respect for Mr. Jin Dalang.

The new boss comes from a poor family and has no foundation. Although he has made the Changling Order of two thousand stones, he is far behind compared with the deep-rooted Jin Shizhong.

Just a few days ago, it was enough to deal with the prince of Jizhou with a heavy hand. Considering what happened later, everyone can guess that it must have come from His Majesty's instruction. But this Jin Dalangjun is the only son of Jin Shizhong. What is Xing Ting doing? What kind of confidence do you have to rely on to not put people in your eyes like this?

Or perhaps, this was just a slip of the tongue. As long as he wasn't stupid, he would have known what to do.

When Jin Han was brought to the hall, he still looked arrogant: "Master Xing has just arrived in Changling City. He should really rectify the unruly people below. He even dares to attack my own people. It is simply lawless. Send someone quickly. Go and seal the Ji'antang, convict and imprison all the people inside, and I will no longer argue with you about this matter."

Aren't you talking about Jiangyang Thief? Why is it related to Ji'antang? Bai Ming's palms became sweaty.

He had interacted with Madam Luo several times. Although it was because of the reputation of his predecessor, Mr. Huo, this young lady was beautiful and well-informed. Even a few days ago, she gave New Year's gifts to himself and his subordinates. The box of rice cakes given to me looked ordinary, but in fact there were ten gold leaves inside, which should be a thank you for taking care of me before.

"Isn't Ji'antang opening today?" He forgot his situation for a moment and spoke subconsciously: "Is it possible that some criminal thieves are eyeing them and want to enter and rob them of gifts?"

"Ha." Mr. Jin Dalang snorted coldly, without even glancing at him: "It was the people from Ji'antang who colluded with the gangsters to attack me on the spot. I and Zhang Shaodong's family are both witnesses, sir. Quickly order the arrest?"

Bai Ming actually regretted it as soon as he spoke the truth. He was not related to Madam Luo, so there was no reason to offend Mr. Jin Dalang for her. Although he was full of doubts at the moment, he still closed his mouth helplessly and looked up at Xing Ting.

The corners of Xing Ting's lips curled up slightly quietly.

"I have been ordered to govern Changling City. If there are really daring lawbreakers, I will not be lenient. But before that, there is another matter to deal with."

He did not wait for Jin Han to speak, and suddenly raised his voice: "Who is there in the hall? Why did you neither sign up nor kneel down when you saw me? Where is the imperial law?"

Yu Qiuzhi's eyes suddenly widened. This is Jin Dalangjun, the only son of Jin Shizhong. It is very rude of you not to come down to the court to greet me and serve tea, but you actually want people to sign up to worship you?

Jin Han couldn't believe that he would be like this. He was dumbfounded and couldn't say a word.

With a "plop", Zhang Shaodong's knees softened and he knelt down first.

Mr. Jin Dalang may not care about his official authority, but his people in Changling City do not dare to do so.

"Boy Zhang Qi, my father is Zhang Mengchun, the master of Huichun Hall, please come and see me!"

Xing Ting ignored him and just looked down at Jin Han. The latter was so angry that he was trembling all over: "You heard me clearly, my father is Jin Xin, my surname is Jin and my name is Han!"

"So what?" Xing Ting didn't even move his eyebrows: "Do you have an official position? If not, not kneeling before the official is a crime of disrespecting the court."

He glanced at Yu Qiuzhi: "Master Yu, how should you obey the law when you are in court?"

Yu Qiuzhi didn't want to offend Jin Han, but he didn't dare not answer: "Twenty floggings."

Before he finished speaking, a fire stick was thrown down: "Just do what Mr. Yu said, beat him."

Jin Han was pushed to the ground, took off his lower clothes, and was beaten with twenty canes. He was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot and he screamed until his voice became hoarse.

He has been cared for by his mother since he was a child. When did he suffer this kind of sin?

"I am obviously the one who suffers. You just don't make the decision for me, but you still dare to hit me. Could it be that you are in the same group with that gangster?"

He was a little clever, and he slapped a big hat on Xing Ting.

"Jin Han, you keep saying that you were robbed, but I asked you, what property did they rob you of?"

"That's not true, but they beat my people! More than a dozen guards are lying in front of Ji'antang. Just go and take a look!" Jin Han lay on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Then why did you bring so many guards to Changling City today and then made a special trip to Ji'an Hall?"

"I heard..." Before Jin Han could say anything else, Zhang Shaodong's family on the side quickly intervened.

He had already heard the signs. This Mr. Xing was a man of no means, and he did not want to buy into Mr. Jin Dalang's fault. A good man doesn't want to suffer immediate losses. If Mr. Jin Dalang is allowed to continue talking like this, they will definitely not get any favors.

"Jin Dalangjun heard that Ji'antang was opening today, and wanted to go see the fun. Unexpectedly, they actually took in a gangster. Seeing Jin Dalang's noble status, he planned to kidnap and extort him. Thanks to the capable guards, we escaped."

"Is what he said true?" Xing Ting looked at Jin Han, his official authority fully displayed.
