"Yes, this time, I heard that it was a big family, and they all died! Oh, poor! Xiaodong sighed and replied.

"A big family?" When Xiao Han heard this, he asked strangely, "What's the matter?" ”

"Ahem...... I do not know! Xiao Dong shook his head like a rattle now, it seems that the last time the fake holy decree was cleaned up by Xiao Han, the shadow left on him was really not small.

"Don't know?" Xiao Han squinted his eyes and asked sadly, "Then where did you hear that something happened to the family?" ”

Xiaodong shivered, and hurriedly said: "I just listened to the official who came to find Doctor Sun, and inadvertently mentioned such a sentence, I really don't know anything else!" ”

Xiao Han frowned: "Really? ”

Xiaodong hurriedly swore a curse: "Really! It's more real than gold! ”

"Oh, that's it!"

Xiao Han saw that Xiaodong's expression didn't seem to be fake, and touched his nose stupidly, thinking that it would be okay in the afternoon anyway, and he would go to find Lao Sun Yecheng.

"Okay, let's go, let's go check it out!"

made a decision, Xiao Han didn't procrastinate, pulled Xiaodong and walked out, not caring about the unwillingness of this guy's boss.

Sun Simiao's house is not far from the county government in Yangzhou.

Even if they hid from the sun along the root of the wall all the way, the two of them only needed to touch a cup of tea before they arrived outside the county office.

Speaking of which, the county government of Yangzhou City, Xiao Han came for the first time, stood in the corner opposite it and looked up, and found that the first impression given to him here was that it was big!

Of course, the county government is a little bigger, which is nothing, and it is not that the county officials deliberately made this so big.

Different from the narrow and cramped county government in the drama, the county government in the Tang Dynasty was not only the existence of the county magistrate working, living, and ascending to the court.

It also serves as an office rest, a warehouse, a treasury, a prison, and even a morgue.

If the area is small, I am afraid that I will not be able to put so many things.

"Hey! What the hell are you two doing! ”

Just when Xiao Han was still looking outside the county office, a government official stepped out of the side door and pointed at him and Xiaodong with a loud shout!

"Shhh...... You're sneaky! ”

Xiaodong was defenseless at all, and was startled on the spot, but he quickly reacted, and angrily pointed at the official and was about to scold!

Joke! What kind of green onion is your little servant? Your top boss's top boss: Lord Thorn Shi has to be polite when he sees us, and you dare to yell at us?

"Xiaodong!"

Just when Xiaodong gritted his teeth and was about to scold the official for scolding him with blood, Xiao Han raised his hand to stop him, and then smiled and arched his hand to the black-faced official:

"This eldest brother, we are friends with Sun Daochang, and Sun Daochang lives in our house these days! Today I heard that he came to the county office, and we also came to have a look! ”

"Oh? Are you friends with Dr. Sun? ”

The official was still frowning at the beginning, and if he didn't agree with him, he would start to drive people away.

However, after hearing that Xiao Han was Sun Simiao's friend, and even Sun Simiao was still living in their house, a black face instantly eased up!

They all live together, which is obviously not an ordinary friend...... (Ahem, I want to go to the wall with a crooked consciousness!) ）

So, the official looked at Xiao Han in awe, and hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Rude and rude!" Doctor Sun is now in the yamen, if you want to find him, come with me! ”

"Good! It's hard work! Xiao Han smiled and arched his hand, and Xiao Dong next to him rolled his eyes, but after being secretly twisted by someone, he immediately followed honestly.

The gate of the county government was promoted to the hall, or for the county lord to walk, and the official naturally did not dare to lead Xiao Han away, so the three of them entered the county government through the side door.

Entering the county office, what Xiao Han saw first was the palace of the ascending hall.

Behind the desk, a picture of the sunrise in the east is particularly conspicuous!

It's just that the county master is gone, and there is no official with a ruthless stick of water and fire, and this hall seems somewhat lonely.

"Two of you, come with me, Doctor Sun is in front!" After the official entered the door, he did not lead Xiao Han to continue walking, but turned a corner and walked to the right.

Xiao Han smiled at him and thanked him.

He has been in the Tang Dynasty for so long, and he has also seen several other officials, so he naturally knows that the county government of the Tang Dynasty basically follows the design of the Sui Dynasty, sitting in the north and facing the south, the left and the right, and the front and back residences.

And the so-called Di refers to the residence of the county lord, which is generally at the back of the county office, or there is no need to put a big drum at the door of the ya, and use the rumbling drum to urge the lazy county lord to hurry up and work.

As for shady places like prisons and houses, it is natural to stay away from the county master's residence!

The palace is in the back, and they are in the front, so both of these places will be designed near the yadian.

This not only keeps a distance, but also makes it convenient for the county magistrate to ask the case and raise people, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

Sure enough, not far from following the servant to the side, Xiao Han saw the figure of a big cow sitting on the ground outside a row of gray low houses.

"Hey, Big Bull!"

Xiaodong saw the big cow from a distance and hurriedly shouted.

When Da Niu heard the voice, he raised his head suspiciously, and when he saw Xiao Han and Xiaodong, his eyes immediately showed a touch of joy, and he raised his legs to greet him.

"Xiao... Xiao Gongzi! What are you doing here? ”

Da Niu wanted to say hello to Xiao Han from afar, but unexpectedly, he almost shouted the words "Marquis Xiao" out of his mouth.

Thanks to his quick reaction, he hurriedly replaced it with Xiao Gongzi before exiting.

"Oh, we have nothing to do at home, come and see you! What about Daochang Sun? Xiao Han looked at Da Niu and smiled, and when he got closer, he patted his thick shoulder and asked.

Da Niu didn't dodge, but just laughed and said: "The master is in the house, there is a female corpse inside, I can't go in, so I'll wait outside." ”

"Oh? The female corpse is also placed here? Xiao Han sighed lightly, then turned his head, looked at the official and asked, "This big brother, can I go in and have a look?" ”

The official had just seen that Xiao Han was so familiar with Doctor Sun's apprentice, and the last trace of doubt in his heart was gone, and when he heard this, he immediately nodded and smiled: "Naturally!" Those in it are all prisoners, and they will be cut naked when they are alive, are they still afraid of being seen when they die? ”

Note: In ancient times, women were rarely sentenced to prison, because once they were in prison, the end was often worse than death!

Therefore, when a woman breaks the law, she will either be punished with a rod or cut off her head. (except for adultery) and beheading, both men and women, must take off their shirts, one to facilitate the identification of one's body, and the other to facilitate the executioner's execution.

So look at some old photos of the Qing Dynasty, the prisoners are shirtless.

There are also people wearing shirts and cutting off their heads on TV! But very little! Basically, some prominent people during their lifetime applied to the Shangguan or the emperor before they could be executed in clothes.
