In order to show that he was a holy and virtuous king, the emperor deliberately set up a red gold dragon relief drum outside the gate of the criminal department, which was different from the ordinary drum of injustice, and this drum was to accept the people's complaints.

The so-called sue for the royal complaint means that if the people encounter something that they feel is unfair and they are really wronged, they can directly sue the royal complaint.

This seems to be a very good method, if there are ordinary people who have been oppressed by corrupt officials or have been framed, they only need to go to the royal complaint, and they can go to the public and then reopen the case.

But the fact is that if there is no real grievance, no one wants to sue the royal court, just because suing the royal court is a matter of life and death.

First of all, all those who complain to the emperor must receive fifty lashes as a punishment for disturbing the saints, after beating the drum and shouting grievances. Secondly, the person who sues the royal complaint must roll the nail board, and if the nail board is not dead, he must continue to sue the royal court, which means that the heavens are merciful, and there is really a grievance, and this matter will be enlightened to the saint.

To be honest, although a special place was set up for the people to file a lawsuit, because of the harsh conditions, it discouraged all those who really had grievances.

The people guarding the door are also very idle now, because no one comes to complain for a month, even if someone dares to come to complain, how can they let people in casually without taking a touch? It's not a fat difference here, if you don't find a way to get some oil and water, how can you feed your family?

But today is destined to be an uneventful day. The drum outside sounded, and the sound was unusually loud, and it was not the drum that was usually beaten, but the drum on the other side that had barely sounded.

A few Yanai felt that they might meet someone who didn't have the eyesight to see today, maybe they beat the wrong drum. But it's just time for someone to pass the time.

With a malicious smile, several people walked to the door together, and saw a beautiful little girl beating the drum vigorously.

According to the rules, whoever beats this drum must receive fifty lashes. But the little girl in front of them, who looked thin, couldn't be so ruthless at all.

They immediately stopped Luo Jingcheng: "Does the girl know what kind of drum this is?" ”

Luo Jingcheng replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Naturally, I know." ”

Yanei's eyes were unbearable: "Do you know that if you hit this drum, you must accept fifty lashes?" ”

Luo Jingcheng still replied faintly: "I know." ”

The officials were silent for a while, and they all said that they would be very light.

Zhao Zhuoyang walked over and said, "I asked her to beat this drum, if you want to beat it, hit me." ”

When Yanai saw Zhao Zhuoyang, he immediately felt that what was going on? Isn't this the second prince? If the second prince has any grievances, wouldn't it be good to sue the emperor directly, as for running here to suffer? How many detours does this have to take? Moreover, is there anything in this world that dares to let the second prince be wronged? Who lives so impatiently?

Of course they don't know, their so-called impatient life is the eldest prince, Zhao Zhuoyang's eldest brother?

Seeing the second prince come out, where do these people dare to really greet Luo Jingcheng? Holding the whip, he hesitated, and finally slammed fifty times towards the pillar beside Luo Jingcheng.

Because the force was too hard, my hands were numb.

Luo Jingcheng looked at Zhao Zhuoyang with appreciation, although he usually doesn't do much things, but it's right to bring him here, there is a royal one by his side, and it's really convenient to do something.

Ordinary people have really received fifty lashes, and they have already fainted, so it is generally not so quick for someone to come out and accept other people's complaints.

Liu Yongxing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was still drinking tea quietly in the inner office, but suddenly heard that someone had come to sue the emperor, and he couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of tea. Who is so looking for death and running here to sue the royal court? Recently, the emperor has been in a very bad mood for the matter of choosing a concubine, who would dare to touch the emperor's brow? If the nail board is dead, it's okay, but if he doesn't die, what should he do with the criminal department secretary?

I wanted to send someone away casually, but I heard that the second prince brought someone up. Liu Yongxing knew what was going on with a thought on his toes. Recently, the girl brought by the second prince also came to him, but he refused. In the end, the emperor agreed to do this matter with the eldest prince, and compared with the gentle and elegant second prince, of course, the eldest prince who looked very weak but had an extremely terrible mind was more difficult to deal with. You said that the second prince would just go and say no to the emperor directly?

But then again, the second prince is not as favored as the eldest prince, even if he tells the emperor in person, the emperor will definitely not agree to the second prince's approach, and the final result will be the same.

Liu Yongxing sighed, straightened out his official uniform, which was not messy, and walked out slowly.

Since you want to sue the royal court, the nail board must be rolled. But judging from the second prince's attitude towards the woman, he must not bear to let her get hurt, but he can't let the second prince roll the nail board.

Liu Yongxing walked out, and sure enough, he saw the second prince diligently pouring tea for the woman.

"Luo Luo, this matter of the nail board is too dangerous, and this is something I can't interfere with, so you might as well forget it, right? Or I'll get out of here for you? Zhao Zhuowen looked worried. He felt that he was really useless, and he could not do anything to let his beloved woman suffer such a grievance.

It's not that he didn't tell his father about it, but every time he was blocked back by the people around his father. His father didn't want to see him at all. For this reason, he knelt outside his father's palace for a day and a night, but he did not shake his father in the slightest.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Luo Jingcheng said with a determined face. I don't know if I believe in Li Yuyu or Hyun Ji. Hyun Ji said that the fish scales would save her life, and Hyun Ji gave her a very inconspicuous pearl. She always felt that these things could really help her, otherwise she wouldn't have decided to sue the emperor so rashly.

Even if she could wait, her father couldn't wait.

Luo Jingcheng tightly held a sachet embroidered with a lotus carp in his hand. She put Li Yuyu's scales inside.

Liu Yongxing coughed before seeing the second prince, and then reluctantly said all kinds of good things to the second prince, and helped him analyze the pros and cons. But the second prince didn't take any idea at all, just looked at the delicate-looking woman.

Luo Jingcheng looked firm, looked at Liu Yongxing fixedly with pure black eyes, and said word by word: "I, hold on, hold on!" ”

For such a soft and hard master who does not eat oil and salt, Liu Yongxing can only sigh, I hope she can get through this hurdle safely.

Liu Yongxing asked people to lift out the nail board, on which iron needles were erected, as thick as a child's fingers, each three inches long. The woman's thin body, lying on it, could almost pierce her body directly. This kind of torture, even a strong man would not dare to try it, how could she, a weak woman, dare to roll on it?

Liu Yongxing, as the secretary of the Criminal Department, has naturally seen all kinds of torture, but he also feels sorry for the beautiful woman like a flower.

But Luo Jingcheng, as the protagonist, doesn't seem to be afraid at all.

In fact, her heart was almost shaking like a sieve. If Li Yuyu saw her and found that she was full of holes all over her body, would she not like it? Will you dislike her? Hey, no matter how you think about it, it's a very scary thing, is the love that hasn't started going to end like this?

Luo Jingcheng took the pearl given by Xuan Ji in her mouth, and could only pray that Xuan Ji would be reliable and that she could give her something to save her life after knowing that she was about to be in danger. Anyway, she has already worn hard armor in her clothes, I hope these people can see Zhao Zhuoyang's face and don't need her to take off her clothes. Everything must be prepared for second-hand!

Luo Jingcheng stood in front of the nail board, and was just about to lie down, when he heard Liu Yongxing say: "Girl, there are rules for the nail board, and the girl also asks for wide clothes." ”

Luo Jingcheng's face was like ashes when he heard this. In fact, basically she didn't put much hope in Hyun Ji, and the main self-confidence still came from the heavy armor. Do you really want to take off your armor?

Who knew that Luo Jingcheng was still fighting in her heart, and Zhao Zhuoyang's unkind tone came out: "She is also an innocent yellow flower girl, and Lord Liu actually wants her to take off her clothes in front of so many people?" Where will her innocence be placed? ”

Liu Yongxing could only give up, he could only say in his heart that the second prince was obviously cheating!

Luo Jingcheng gave Zhao Zhuoyang a thumbs up in his heart. Nima has a backstage person, and even suing the royal nail board is much tougher than others!

There was no more resistance, Luo Jingcheng lay down towards the nail board, although she wore armor, but there was no way to protect her head and hands after all, so she tried not to let the thick and long nails touch when she rolled.

Rolled around, don't you feel like there's anything wrong? Armor is so useful? Or maybe it's really a pearl given by Hyun Ji; Li Yuyu's fish scales play a role?

Luo Jingcheng happily rolled a few more laps on the pegboard, and the touch was no different from tickling.

It was the first time Liu Yongxing saw people rolling nail boards and rolling so happily, this back and forth, is it ...... Get out of the hobby? I couldn't even look at it directly.

In order to stop her from continuing to roll, and by the way, to protect the props of the Criminal Department, Liu Yongxing heroically stood up and stopped Luo Jingcheng: "Okay, it's enough, no need to roll anymore." ”

Hearing this, Luo Jingcheng rolled around on it again, and then stood up a little unsatisfied. I got a little carried away and almost couldn't stop.

"In that case, can I face the saint? Can I tell my grievances? Luo Jingcheng immediately asked what she was most worried about.

Liu Yongxing glanced at the nail board that was about to be flattened by Luo Jingcheng, and said that the nail board was really wronged, right?

"Since you have done it all, you can naturally sue the Holy Princess."
