"My lord, you can't just punish me based on Song Gong's words."

The officials below hurriedly prevaricated: "Even if what Song Gong said is true, but those corpses were burned beyond recognition, and it has been several days since the people of Kaifeng Mansion went to conduct an autopsy, so it is naturally difficult to distinguish in detail the soot in the mouth and nose of the corpse." ”

Wu Zhi knew that after the fire broke out that night, it was not until dawn that Kaifeng Mansion sent people to protect the scene, but it was too late, the scene was chaotic at that time, all traces were destroyed, and Kaifeng Mansion just carried the body and left after arriving.

This irresponsible attitude has been criticized, Wu Zhi didn't expect that after the Kaifeng Mansion took back the body, it would drag on for a few days before the autopsy, what kind of official government is this case-handling is not as serious and responsible as the yamen of the state government

"Even laymen know that the murder scene must be protected, and the body must be examined as soon as possible, so you should be punished for such dereliction of duty," Wu Zhi shouted.

"My lord, it was a festival at that time, and we didn't have enough people in Kaifeng Mansion"

"Hugh to quibble"

Peng Shun was interrupted by Wu Zhi angrily in the middle of his words, squinted his eyes, Wu Zhi looked coldly at the officials below and said: "Who are the officials on duty in Kaifeng Mansion that day, and the post-mortem work, as well as the punishment for handling this case, I will be listed."

After Wu Zhi finished speaking, more than a dozen officials and servants in the hall walked into the hall, and they seemed to have no fear.

"You are derelict in your duties, you are not effective in handling the case, and if you come to someone, you will punish me with thorns"

Wu Zhi took out the arrow on the desk and threw it under the hall, Jing Punishment is to be beaten with Jing Tiao, which is not a heavy punishment, but it hurts very much after being beaten, and it will hurt unbearably if ordinary people are whipped more than a dozen times.

As Wu Zhi expected, the Kaifeng Mansion on both sides was completely indifferent to Wu Zhi's order.

"Master Wu is the official appointed by His Majesty, do you want to rebel if you don't respect the order?" Qin Hui scolded with a blue face on the side.

Qin Hui didn't know that Wu Zhi actually did it on purpose, so he was really angry.

"Master Wu, forgive your superiority"

Peng Shun smiled contemptuously and said to Wu Zhi: "Since Your Majesty sent Master Wu to our Kaifeng Mansion to retry the Sun family fire case, in fact, I don't believe in the previous judgment of Kaifeng Mansion, but Your Majesty also knows that our Kaifeng Mansion is doing its best and can't find any results, so I will send Master Wu to investigate."

After a pause, Peng Shun said arrogantly: "To put it bluntly, our Kaifeng Mansion is not effective in handling the case, but if you want to be punished, Your Majesty and the imperial court have already ordered the punishment, and now Your Majesty just sent Lord Wu to come, which shows that Your Majesty does not want to hold us accountable for Kaifeng Mansion Now Lord Wu, it seems a little inappropriate for you to do this."

After Peng Shun finished speaking, another magistrate also said: "Besides, these people are the most familiar with the Sun family's case in the entire Kaifeng Mansion, if Lord Wu punishes them, I am afraid that there will be a lot of inconvenience in investigating the case in the future." ”

This is already threatening Wu Zhi.

"Adult"

Qin Hui on the side gritted his teeth angrily, and he approached Wu Zhi and signaled to Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi understood what Qin Hui meant, and the chief did not listen to the orders when he arrived, as long as this matter was patient, after it was reported to the imperial court, the imperial court would naturally punish him.

Wu Zhi shook his head lightly at Qin Hui and gave him a confident look, signaling him to be calm.

This kind of trivial matter will not be reported to the imperial court, which can only show that Wu Zhi is incapable, and he can't even treat a subordinate, and he also refers to the management of the huge mansion

In fact, in addition to reporting to the imperial court, Wu Zhi also has a back hand, that is, the guard team around him, and more than a dozen of his own guards are all from the elite of the Qingzhou Army, even if the officials of Kaifeng Mansion are disobedient now, Wu Zhi can be forcibly executed with his own guards, and the officials dare not resist, and there is no chance to resist.

However, Wu Zhi will not use his own escort team, the escort team will only use Wu Zhi when he is forced to do so, and now Wu Zhi has a lot of hole cards in his hands, and there is a lot of leeway, and he doesn't need to use his own people at all, he can get these small shrimps.

"What if I had to punish them"

Wu Zhi looked at Peng Shun and the others playfully and asked.

Peng Shun only thought that Wu Zhi was forced to be calm, and smiled quite proudly and ignored Wu Zhi, he was confident that without his words, no one in the whole Kaifeng Mansion would listen to Wu Zhi's orders.

"If the adults must punish them, then I can't wait." Under the hall, a big man with cheeks wearing a capital official uniform said.

The implication is that no one here listens to you, and if you want to punish people, do it yourself, which is an insult to any official.

Wu Zhi was about to make a fool of himself, and at this time, all the officials in the hall secretly smiled proudly.

"Your name is Wang Lu," Wu Zhi asked leisurely as he looked at his beard and beard.

Kaifeng Mansion's Dutou Wang Lu, Wu Zhi knows his information in his heart, he is rude, extremely narrow-minded, although he has not done things that hurt nature and reason, but some things that oppress the subordinate people have done a lot.

"Not bad"

Wang Lu didn't even bother to say honorifics.

"Okay" Wu Zhi nodded, "From now on, you are not the head of Kaifeng Mansion"

After Wu Zhi finished speaking, Wang Lu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Peng Shun in a little panic.

"Master Wu, although you have the right to appoint and dismiss the head, but you also have to go through the formalities, not that you can appoint and dismiss with a word," Peng Shun said.

"I'm going to remove this head today."

Wu Zhi stared at Peng Shun and sneered: "Not only will I dismiss him, but I will also punish him for disobeying his boss, where is Zhang Quan?"

Wu Zhi called, and after half a ring, a young man wearing an ordinary fast hunting suit came out of the hall and asked Wu Zhibai, "My lord is calling me."

"Is your name Zhang Quan?"

"It's a lowly position."

"Okay, this official will appoint you as the head of Kaifeng Mansion, and now, this official orders you to lead people to take down this royal road"

Wu Zhi was a little nervous in his heart, according to the information of Shi Qian, this Zhang Quan is also an upright person, and he is the most unpopular in Kaifeng Mansion to catch fast and is often deliberately suppressed by Wang Lu.

And Zhang Quan is righteous because of his righteousness, and he also has three or five difficult brothers and brothers in the fast catch, and now Wu Zhi has given him this opportunity, if he can grasp it, then Wu Zhi will have the first batch of henchmen in Kaifeng Mansion.

Of course, if the information on the time move is wrong, or Zhang Quan is instigated, then Wu Zhi can only forcefully dispatch his own escort team.

"Obedience"

Zhang Quan's tone was a little excited, and it sounded like he was raising his eyebrows.

"My lord, this is not in accordance with the rules, this Zhang Quan is just"

syllable

Peng Shun wanted to say more, but Wu Zhi slapped the shocked wood and immediately shocked him.

"The presumptuous official is to rule Zhang Quan, take down Wang Lu, and execute with the people in the hall"

"Yes"

Zhang Quan was not ambiguous at all, hooked his hand, and immediately four catchers came out of the queue and escorted Wang Lu to the hall.

Even though Wang Lu has a hundred catties of strength, he doesn't dare to resist at all at this time, and let him be taken down quickly, he has been in the court for many years, and he naturally knows that once he forcibly resists, he will be disobedient, and he will be killed.

"Someone Coming"

The rest of the arresters saw that Zhang Quan was gaining power, so they naturally took advantage of the situation, and immediately swarmed, obeying Wu Zhi's orders to take off the shirts of officials such as Wang Lu and Wu Zhi who wanted to punish him, and some of the arresters who were in charge of the execution were already holding thorns, just waiting for Wu Zhi to give an order.

Before, Peng Shun and them were ironclad, and naturally dared to ignore Wu Zhi, but now the catchers suddenly took refuge in Wu Zhi, Wu Zhi's power has a strong execution, no one dares to resist strongly, and Wu Zhi has completely grasped the initiative.

"My lord, my lord knows that I am wrong, and I ask my lord to forgive me."

Wang Lu saw that things were not good, and immediately kept asking for mercy.

"It's late"

Wu Zhi glanced at Peng Shun, who was pale, and then said loudly: "Give me a hard pump"
