This Martial Saint is too generous.

Chapter 271 Has the heart to do meritorious deeds, but no brains to do meritorious deeds
Whispering.

The soldiers of the Ministry of Punishment took out their chains and rushed forward. Although the four had the ability to resist, they did not dare to move at all.

If it was in other small towns, it might be possible to kill the officials and escape directly, or flee overseas.

But it's a pity that this is Kyoto, where there are so many masters.

Once he becomes a fugitive and is caught back, it is not as simple as beheading.

What's more, the four of them knew in their hearts that they were alchemists, and even if their crimes were heinous, they would not be executed in the end.

It is better to die than to live.

It is better to be imprisoned in the palace for alchemy for a lifetime than to die without a whole body.

Besides, since the Ministry of Criminal Justice came to arrest people, it must be fully prepared, and there is a high probability that they will not be able to escape.

The people in the family next to him were stunned, and they didn't even move. They didn't even dare to meet the officials. They were afraid that they would be suspected of trying to rob people, so they would kill themselves without mercy.

Zhang Zhaohong had never been slapped since he was a child, and after being thrown out, he fainted for a few breaths.

When she came to her senses, she saw that the elder brother who was like a god had been firmly bound by chains. The elder brother who usually lived in the wind was bent, just like the criminals who were about to be pushed to the Meridian Gate and beheaded.

Brother's well-groomed hair has also fallen down, and his hair is disheveled. Zhang Zhaohong has never seen such a mess in his memory.

She burst into tears.

Although Zhang Zhaohong is savage, in her heart, the eldest brother will always be comparable to the existence of the sun in the sky.

Seeing that her eldest brother was reduced to a prisoner, she was really heartbroken.

At this moment, Zhang Zhaohong didn't even bother to find out who was beating her just now.

"Stop crying!"

Zhang Hudian shouted.

His head had already been pressed down by the soldiers, and when he heard the cry, his heart ached.

After I was imprisoned, I could imagine how difficult my little sister's life was.

His mother died early, and he let Zhang Zhaohong be treated by his daughter since he was a child, so he developed his sister's arrogant character.

"Little sister, go to Xeon immediately!"

Zhang Hudian shouted again.

At this point, Xiang Xeon is the last straw in his hand.

Zhang Hudian didn't even know that his younger sister Zhang Zhaohong had humiliated Qin Jinyang.

Especially the little sister's emotional trifles are simply commonplace. He used to listen to them, but later the names didn't match, so he simply didn't bother to pay attention.

As the chief disciple of the Taidan Academy, he is also very busy on weekdays, so he has no time to pay attention to the trivial matters of the love between his children.

There is Eunuch Chen behind Xiang Xeon. Although the Fang family is powerful, if Eunuch Chen pleads for mercy, the Fang family may give it the face.

This is a silver lining.

……

Four prisoners were captured, and the soldiers of the Criminal Ministry began to confiscate the gold leaves.

The fat shopkeeper stretched out his hand to stop him.

"My lord, you can't take this money casually... The responsibility of the criminal department is to take people to handle cases, not bandits who rob money."

The shopkeeper is plausible.

"Hehe... bandits?"

Liang Yuansu was almost laughed angrily.

"Okay, I don't need to take this money!"

Liang Yuansu nodded and walked in front of the fat shopkeeper.

"I know that there is a great god behind you, and I can't move this great god!"

"But the silver here should not be the property of the great god, right?"

"The Ministry of Punishment can't do anything to you, can't it clean up this group of idiots?"

"Guess, if all these idiots are brought back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, how many rounds of torture can they resist?"

After Liang Yuansu's words fell, he didn't care about the fat shopkeeper with a livid face. He looked around a group of family dudes.

"Listen to me, listen carefully! There are so many families, so much money... If anyone confesses to treason, then all of you will be charged with treason, and the end result will be Ling Chi's death , dead without a whole body."

"I can give you a chance, as long as you admit that the money comes from your family, then you will not flee."

Liang Yuansu's words made the atmosphere of the teahouse even more depressing.

"Yes...to be lenient when you confess, but to be strict when you resist!"

Qin Jinyang came to the scene of the case in person, suddenly became addicted to drama, and subconsciously said something.

But then, he felt that he was talking too much.

I am not a member of the Criminal Department.

"Master Qin is right. Frankness is lenient, and resistance is strict... The first person to speak will always make the greatest contribution."

Liang Yuansu nodded towards Qin Jinyang.

This sentence really spoke to my heart.

After coming out of the dungeon, the Ministry of Criminal Justice gave Liang Yuansu the first impression that the soldiers were extremely tyrannical, and the laws of the dynasty were too strict, and they would be punished at every turn.

Capital crime is the last prison door to deter criminals.

Once abused, it will make those prisoners who did not need to die even more aggressive, and even commit revenge crimes.

When the Ministry of Criminal Justice handles cases, the common mantra is to kill without mercy.

This is lenient for confession and strict for resistance. It not only has the majestic admonition of the Ministry of Punishment, but also has the room for forgiveness of the law. It can give prisoners a chance to repent, and it will not make the scene rigid at the beginning.

There is a chance to popularize it.

……

"My lord, I'll recruit, I'll recruit!"

A few suffocating breaths passed, and soon, the first person ran out.

This man was very young, and he knelt at Liang Yuansu's feet.

It's from the Ning family.

"Huh? Tell me...what is your Ning family doing with so much money coming to the teahouse?"

Liang Yuansu seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

It came faster than expected. Although there are many people in these families, the majesty of the patriarchs is still there. Without the patriarch nodding, the juniors in the family dare not stand up.

He even liked the young man a lot.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper's fat face instantly darkened.

He glared fiercely at the Patriarch of the Ning family: You can't even control your own dog, trash!
The young man panicked. He knew that the reason for taking the money was that the family fled to Donglan country collectively.

But let him weave a reason again, which he can't think of for a while.

Although he has the heart to do meritorious service, he does not have the brain to do meritorious service.

Liang Yuansu has rich experience in handling cases, so he understood it in an instant.

He smiled and continued to ask: "I ask you, do you want to show off your wealth and fight for it with so much money?"

After the words fell, Liang Yuansu looked at the fat shopkeeper again.

The meaning in his eyes is also very clear: the Ministry of Criminal Justice has already given Prince Shu enough face, and the other party has already recruited, so just shut up.

"That's right...that's fighting the rich!"

"The silver here all comes from five families."

"We are holding a fight against the rich."

The young man's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to shout.

……

"My lord, I recruit, I want to recruit!"

"My lord, the money is indeed the Zhong family wanting to tell other families to fight for wealth, we plead guilty!"

"My lord, my lord, I recruit too!"

……

With the leader, things later became much simpler.

There was a clerk in the Ministry of Punishments who recorded the confession. Except for the Ye family, people from several other families came forward and admitted to Doufu.

Doufu itself is not illegal.

But these families are the objects of investigation by the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

"The Ministry of Punishment will investigate several direct disciples of the Taidan Institute. The properties of their families will be temporarily seized. If there is insufficient evidence and these people are acquitted, the money will be returned in full."

"Come here, put the seal on the pocket."

Liang Yuansu waved his hand, and two soldiers immediately stepped forward to stick the seal.

The sack was closed before, and the moment the two of them opened it, their eyes were almost blinded.

The two of them had never seen so many gold leaves in their entire lives.

No, they didn't dare to get so many gold leaves even in their dreams.

Grab it casually, this whole year, you will be the guest of Yichun Tower.

Unfortunately, under the watchful eyes of everyone, no one dared to do anything.

The fat shopkeeper gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do.

There are so many gold leaves, just put on the wings and fly.

Prince Shu loves money, but he is not stingy with his subordinates. If this business is done by himself, he will definitely be rewarded with a large amount of money.

Hateful, it flew away.

……

After the matter is settled, the people from the criminal department are ready to leave.

"and many more!"

At this moment, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly spoke.

The members of the Ye family breathed a sigh of relief just now, and they all looked at Ye Zhiqiu in surprise.

Their legs are all weak, and they can't wait for the people from the punishment department to leave in the next second. It's very strange why Ye Zhiqiu still yells to stop.

The rest of the families are no longer envious of the Ye family, but jealous.

"My lord, although I belong to the Ye family, I have been refining alchemy in the Taidan Academy for the past few years, and I don't care much about the family's affairs. If you have any doubts, you can directly seal off the Ye family's share, and take your time." investigation."

Ye Zhiqiu glanced at Qin Jinyang with deep gratitude.

At the same time, he also has his own way of repaying gratitude.

Qin Jinyang saved his life, and the Ministry of Punishment has given him enough face.

For the Ministry of Punishment, silver is equally important.

One should not be too greedy, and one should not be desperate for money.

You have to pay one end.

At the same time, it also allowed Qin Jinyang to move around in the Ministry of Justice in the future, so that he would not exhaust his relationship at once.

"Ok?"

Just as Liang Yuansu turned around, he turned away in surprise.

To be honest, he has been having a headache about Ye Jiayin.

Although I have a lot of authority, the Ministry of Punishment will reward me with a certain proportion if I put this batch of money into the national treasury.

Without the Ye family's share, the rewards of the entire Ministry of Punishment will be less.

This matter is still very troublesome.

That is to say, for Qin Jinyang's face, if it was someone else, Liang Yuansu must be stern and selfless.

He never expected that Qin Jinyang, a friend, would be so knowledgeable.

The fourth child frowned.

He suddenly changed his attitude towards Ye Qianqiu.

It was quite a wink, and it didn't embarrass the young master.

The fourth child observed other people's expressions very carefully. When the soldiers of the Ministry of Criminal Justice were counting out the gold leaves of the Ye family, everyone's faces were unhappy.

Although these people are Liang Yuansu's subordinates, they are unlikely to betray Liang Yuansu.

But the golden leaves are placed in front of the eyes, and then they fly with wings. Who can feel balanced?

Every time there is such a serious case that enriches the national treasury, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will reward, the more money, the more rewards, and the young master just deprived others of the money in their pockets out of thin air.

Who can be comfortable?

The fourth child quietly observed the expressions of the soldiers.

really.

The soldiers are all comfortable.

……

"My lord, absolutely not, absolutely not, the Ye family has always done business honestly, and has never had any criminal history."

At this time, the second uncle almost ran out crying.

Who would have thought that Ye Zhiqiu would harm him before he could breathe out completely.

He almost fainted on the spot.

The property of the Ye family is his life.

The other Ye family members were also dumbfounded.

Some Ye family members even secretly hated Ye Zhiqiu.

Things that are greedy for life and afraid of death.

At this time, what prestige do you stand up for?

All the money was fined and confiscated, what did the Ye family eat?What to drink?
Father Ye also stood up, the corners of his mouth trembling in anger.

"My lord, please count!"

Ye Zhiqiu turned to look at these so-called relatives.

Disappointed!

There was only deep disappointment in his eyes.

My life has been threatened, and you only have these few taels of silver in your eyes.

That's it!

Anyway, I can't spend a few taels of money from the Ye family.

The Taidan Institute has a salary, which is enough for me to spend.

In the future, it is considered filial piety to give father a bite of food.

Let the huge Ye family go away with the wind.

relatives?

I bother.

……

Liang Yuansu looked at Qin Jinyang.

Qin Jinyang pondered for a while, then nodded.

Since it was proposed by Ye Zhiqiu himself, it would be best... Money is something outside of the body, and with Ye Zhiqiu's ability, it is simply too easy to earn money.

"Okay, then seal them all up!"

"Starting today, all five of your families, mansions and shops will be sealed up. Anyone who dares to take half a step will be killed without mercy!"

Liang Yuansu flicked his sleeves, and the soldiers couldn't wait to rush forward.

hiss!
The fat shopkeeper was stunned again.

The Ye family is his last straw.

As long as the Ye family can keep the money and the caravan of Donglan Kingdom is still there, this group of greedy and fearful things will definitely agree to flee.

At that time, I will also make a small contribution.

This time it's all right, it's a fall short.

……

"The mansion is closed, the shops are closed... Then what do we eat these days? Where do we live?"

The crowd in the Ministry of Criminal Justice was about to leave, and a reckless man in the Zhong family who was not afraid of death asked directly.

He is the most worthless and rotten gambler of the Zhong family, and he still owes a lot of gambling debts. Without the supply of blood from the Zhong family shop, he is afraid that he will be beaten to death by the creditors.

Others also joined in.

Yes.

What do you eat these days?
What to drink?
where to live?
"Hmph, is there food in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice? Are you coming or not?"

"A group of idiots who have no food to eat, just learn from others to beg for food, and then go to work as coolies. You probably won't starve to death in the central capital."

The adjutant behind Liang Yuansu cursed.

……

Quiet!

After the people from the Ministry of Justice left, the second floor of the hotel was surprisingly quiet, and a needle could be heard.

The second uncle of the Ye family was so angry that he got a headache and picked up some tea to moisten his throat.

"Ok?"

"The tea leaves used to make this pot of tea are Xueling leaves from the peak of Jinshi Mountain eight thousand miles away. Although they are not the top quality for imperial use, ordinary people are not qualified to drink them. It costs five taels of silver per sip."

"If you want to drink, you have to pay first."

The fat shopkeeper turned his head and said something indifferent.

"you……"

The second uncle's palms trembled, and he couldn't hold the teacup steadily.

Five taels of silver?

You use five taels of silver to humiliate me?

I used to have a meal for breakfast, leftovers, vegetables and fruits, more than five...

Ugh!
The second uncle was desperate.

puff.

Suddenly, he was out of breath and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing that the tea bowl was about to fall, the other member of the Ye family hurriedly stabilized it.

"It's a pity that I didn't listen to my father's words and practiced some fists and feet earlier, but now eating has become a problem."

These big families are all nouveau riche. They have not been rich for many years. They are used to enjoying themselves, and they have not even had time to cultivate promising children.

"Come here... let's see off the guests. You can't even afford a cup of tea, a bunch of poor ghosts!"

The fat shopkeeper shouted.

……

sparse!

People from the five major families poured out of the restaurant.

Since the soldiers of the Ministry of Justice rushed in to take people, there were already three circles around the restaurant and people watching the fun.

Among the crowd, there were also well-informed people who popularized the cruelty of the Taidan Academy reshuffle.

Many people are scolding, gnashing their teeth and scolding.

The moment they walked out of the teahouse, they were overwhelmed by scolding.

Someone threw rotten eggs right away.

"You bastards who are not as good as pigs and dogs... My father was seriously ill back then, and you sold me elixir for 100 taels a piece, and I took it for a full year. Seeing that my father was about to recover, you set the price on the floor and united with all the pharmacies of the Dynasty , Let this pill increase to 5000 taels."

"I sold the house and the land, but it was a step too late. My father was short of the elixir and died. Ning family beasts, you really ruined my family."

A young man held stinky mud in his hand and threw it directly at the heads of the Ning family.

"Everyone come and see. I used to be the successor of the Yan family's pharmacy. My Yan family is good at healing powder. Your Zhang family suspected that I was stealing your business, so you framed my healing powder as poisonous. You framed me in the prison, and then Send people to assassinate my whole family, and after I come out, you will kill me again."

"It's a pity that I didn't die. I was just trying to survive, just waiting for this day, waiting for you villains to be killed."

There was a little old man with a face full of scars gnashing his teeth.

"In order to sell the elixir, you deliberately put poison in the elixir, and let the mild illness become a serious illness. Don't think that others don't know. In the past, relying on the identity of the Taidan Institute, no one dared to provoke you. Now you are unlucky. With you Have a good time."

The crowd was full of grumbling insults.
