rebirth first official

It was dusk in a blink of an eye.

When Gao Zhanming was preparing to have dinner, the servant he sent out in the morning came back.Gao Zhanming didn't even have time to eat, so he hurriedly summoned them and asked, "How's the matter going?"

One of the servants said: "Master, it's done, and now he has been taken away by the Ministry of Punishment."

Gao Zhanming was overjoyed: "Okay, well done! Let's go, now accompany me to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. After the matter is completed, I will take you to Liu Da to receive the reward!"

It turned out that in the morning Gao Zhanming heard that Jiang Jian, the current shopkeeper of the Xinglong Fragrance Shop, was a voluptuous person, and recently he often lingered in Baihualou, so he sent people to deliberately provoke Jiang Jian, compete with him for female prostitutes, and He asked them to make a big mess no matter what method they used, and he would pay compensation for how many things they smashed, as long as they had to make a fuss to alarm the government.

The progress of the matter was even smoother than Gao Zhanming thought.This afternoon Jiang Jian really went to Baihualou to look for the prostitute Xiangmei, and the people sent by Gao Zhanming deliberately competed with him for Xiangmei.Jiang Jian was originally an impetuous temperament, relying on the backing behind him, he refused to give in at all.The two parties fought and smashed several tables in Baihualou. The people in Baihualou hurriedly asked the government to come forward, so both parties were brought into the Ministry of Punishment.

Gao Zhanming galloped all the way with the people, and arrived at the Ministry of Punishment not long after.

People from the criminal department stopped Gao Zhanming, but Gao Zhanming didn't say much, and showed them the Gao family's badge.After a while, Wailang, a member of the punishment department, greeted him personally, and the guards put Gao Zhanming inside.

People from the Ministry of Punishment had never seen Gao Zhanming before.However, there are so many rich and powerful children in Beijing. In order not to offend the rich and powerful, these officials in Beijing have already memorized the relationship network of powerful people in Beijing.Gao Zhanming has his identity on his badge, although he does not have a title, but he is the nephew of the Queen Mother and An Guogong's direct relative, so no one dares to neglect him.

Wailang, a member of the criminal department, welcomed Gao Zhanming to the back hall, and served him tea graciously: "I don't know what your honor is doing here?"

Gao Zhanming saw that he was acting like a slave, so he put on airs, crossed his legs and said casually: "I heard that you arrested two people in Baihualou this afternoon?"

The smile on Wailang's face froze.He is worrying about it.In the afternoon, the officers and soldiers captured two troublemakers from Baihualou. One of them, Jiang Jian, kept yelling that he was a relative of the Gao family. Their heads fell.When the Gao family was involved, the members of the Criminal Department did not dare to act rashly, but temporarily detained him, served him with delicious food and drinks, and were investigating whether what he said was true or not. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, the members of the Gao family actually personally It's here!

Even if Gao Zhanming's father died early and his family lost power long ago, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. In the eyes of the member of the criminal department, Wailang, this man is still a great son-in-law.He thought that his subordinates had captured Gao Zhanming's confidant by mistake, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, two people had a dispute in Baihualou this afternoon and smashed more than a dozen tables in Baihualou. A troublemaker was brought back. However, after our investigation, it seems that the troublemaker was another guy, and Jiang Jian did not break any law or discipline..."

Gao Zhanming interrupted: "Are you sure?"

Wailang, a member of the criminal department, was startled, thinking that Gao Zhanming was still not satisfied, and hurriedly said: "I was planning to order someone to make a record and then release him, but I didn't expect to trouble my lord to make a trip in person..."

Gao Zhanming tapped his fingers on the table, and said unhurriedly: "The two clashed, but only one provoked trouble? Is there any doubt about this case? Do you want to investigate further?"

Wai Lang, member of the criminal department, was stunned again.What Gao Zhanming meant...to ask him not to let him go?But isn't Jiang Jian his relative?If it wasn't for ransom, what was this young master going to the Ministry of Punishment for?Wailang, a member of the criminal department, wiped his sweat and said, "What Your Honor said is true, why don't you... continue to investigate?"

Gao Zhanming said: "Picking quarrels and provoking trouble, damaging Baihualou's property, and injuring people, how should the law punish such crimes?"

It was the beginning of spring, and Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, was already sweating profusely in his thin official clothes.Jiang Jian didn't commit any serious crimes, he just smashed a few things, and if he hurt someone, the only ones who got hurt were the two people who caused the trouble, and they both had skin trauma.Normally, the Ministry of Criminal Justice would not file a case like this at all. Both parties compensated for the loss of Baihualou, and each paid a ransom, and the person was released.He tentatively asked, "According to the law...according to the law...retain him for three days?"

Gao Zhanming said: "If the prisoner threatens the officials of the Criminal Ministry and obstructs justice, how should he be sentenced?"

Wailang, a member of the criminal department, was taken aback again, confused: "Threat...?"

Gao Zhanming said: "I heard that Jiang Jian claimed to be a relative of our Gao family, threatened the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the name of our Gao family, the Duke's Mansion and the Queen Mother, and wanted the Ministry of Criminal Justice to cancel his case. thing?"

Wai Lang, a member of the Criminal Department, finally realized it.It has only been half an hour since Jiang Jian was arrested. He did claim that he is a relative of the Gao family. The officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice are planning to send someone to Gao's mansion to investigate and decide how to deal with the case. The spies just left, presumably Before arriving at Gao Mansion, Gao Zhanming personally visited the Ministry of Punishment.It seems that this case is not simply a matter of two people arguing about a female prostitute, at least Gao Zhanming is definitely not here to redeem someone.He hurriedly said: "Yes, it is. Threatening officials of the court and obstructing law enforcement are very serious crimes, and at least they will be sentenced to three to five years."

Gao Zhanming smiled: "When I was in the mansion, Uncle An Guogong often told me that our Gao family children have received the emperor's grace and have a place in the court. Otherwise, you will not only be ashamed of your trust in the emperor, but also the ancestors of the Gao family. However, after all, there are always some lawless people outside using the name of our Gao family to act as a dominance and oppress the people. If you don’t know, you may think it is our Gao family. The family members don’t know what is good or bad. They are bullying others. If you encounter such a person, you must be severely punished! Kill the chicken to make an example to the monkey! As a judicial official, you should enforce the law impartially! If not, how can there be justice and righteousness in the world?!”

Wailang, a member of the criminal department, was so frightened that his legs became weak and he almost knelt down for Gao Zhanming.Gao Zhanming's words, even An Guogong raised it up, but it was actually a threat.If he releases Jiang Jian just like that, wouldn't it just confirm his reputation of bending the law for personal gain?Not only can't please the Gao family, but it will also offend the Gao family!He repeated: "Yes, yes, I will handle this case according to you... No, no, I will handle this case fairly!"

Gao Zhanming smiled in satisfaction, but he didn't leave. He said leisurely, "It's just that he said it verbally to threaten the court officials in the name of my Gao family. It's not easy to convict, my lord said. Yes or no?"

Wailang, member of the criminal department, didn't know Gao Zhanming's other plans, so he dared to respond: "Yes, yes!"

Gao Zhanming said: "There must be a physical evidence. Please send someone to tell Jiang Jian, and tell him that the person sent by the Ministry of Punishment was rejected by our Gao Mansion. Ask him to write a plea letter and tell him Well, if he had written the letter himself, the matter would have been easier to settle. The content of the letter should be clearly written, what kind of relative he is from our Gao family, and what kind of relationship he has with us. But this is all up to him Voluntary, don’t need to be tortured. If he has no intention of interfering in the judiciary, then ask the Ministry of Criminal Justice to handle the case impartially. If he intends to use the background of our Gao family to do evil outside... Haha. Your Excellency knows what to do."

Wai Lang, a member of the Criminal Department, was shocked when he heard these words.Gao Zhanming's trick is really vicious, it's like inviting you into the urn.If Jiang Jian really wrote the pleading letter, then there are all the witnesses and material evidence, and he will definitely get away with the crime of obstructing justice.A mere incident of a fight made Gao Zhanming commit a major crime in just a few words.This case should not be that simple, maybe Gao Zhanming is behind An Guogong's intention?Do you want to use this incident to make an example of others and increase the prestige of the Gao family?That's right, it must be like this, otherwise Gao Zhanming, the noble young master, wouldn't have come to the Ministry of Punishment himself.

Wai Lang, member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, immediately regained his spirits, thinking that he might be able to get the appreciation of Gao's family if he finished the matter!He hurriedly said: "The next official will do it immediately!"

Gao Zhanming said "Yes": "If he really wrote me a letter, you can send the letter to my house, and then go to Bishuizhuang to find a shopkeeper Tang, and tell him that his good nephew has caused trouble. He is locked up in the Ministry of Criminal Justice now. Just tell him, no matter what he says, you can’t let him go, but don’t forget, this case must be handled impartially!”

Gao Zhanming finished explaining everything he wanted to explain, and Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, personally sent Gao Zhanming out of the criminal department.

This time Gao Zhanming came to the Ministry of Punishment in person, firstly because of what Jiang Jian and Tang did, and secondly, it was his first contact with officials. He wanted to take this opportunity to see how the Gao family lost his father and son when he was dealing with outsiders. What can this identity bring him?Fortunately, most people are still afraid of his identity, and they will not despise him like those dudes in Zongxue.Knowing this, he will know how to measure when doing things in the future.

Gao Zhanming rode his horse back to the house in high spirits.However, he didn't realize that there was a person hiding in the dark opposite the Ministry of Justice and watching him secretly until he walked away, that person came out of the dark and headed towards the imperial city.
