Chapter 23 Law Enforcement
Everyone stopped moving forward and looked up, and what greeted them was a building full of ancient decay. The old bricks and tiles, an old-fashioned building, just stand at the end of the corner of this street.
The building is not tall, only three stories from the outside, and is surrounded by a red brick fence.
Among the people who stopped, several guards led by them surrounded Ye Nanshan faintly, and the rest of the people were scattered and distributed around, guarding and isolating people who were not related to this matter.
And the head of the guard, who had been standing in front of everyone, stepped forward to the stone steps of the garden, stopped, looked solemn, and slowly stretched out his hand to open the door of the courtyard outside the building.
"Squeak... β
A long and somewhat frightening hollow sound spread along the opening of the gate, and as far as the eye could see, a long stone road led all the way to the gate of the three-story building, as if it had not been pruned for a long time, not only did there be many precious flowers and plants with names on them gradually withering, but even the side of the flower pot was overgrown with weeds, which made people wonder when they saw it, this Ye family's law enforcement is notoriously strict in the eyes of this group of ordinary people, and the Ye family is also extremely strict in doing things, especially dressing and appearance, etc., which is the most important, so why is such an important place as the Ye family like thisγ
The Ye family's Law Enforcement Hall has existed in this world since the clan was built, and it can be regarded as one of the oldest buildings. During this period, although the descendants of the Ye family did not know who built this place, in order to highlight their respect for the family and their elders, the younger generations gradually repaired and improved the original only one floor of this place under the efforts of generations, so it has the current appearance, but it will still be seen how much time has been left under this building.
Originally, some people in later generations also saw that the courtyard surrounding this building also seemed to need to be repaired, and the courtyard at that time was the same as it is now, and at the same time it was dirty and messy. In the end, this descendant of the Ye family was still stopped, and when he heard that the reason given to him scared him into fainting on the spot, he stumbled and fell to his knees in the ancestral hall of the clan after waking up, and his mouth kept muttering about what disciple is young, begging for forgiveness, not caring and so on.
At first, people just thought that he was just scared, and when the time came, he would naturally get better, and he would not be in such a crazy state as he is now, obsessed all day long.
But in the end, he really went crazy. Since then, he has been talking crazy, and he will no longer see the elegant appearance of the past.
And when the generation of the Ye family saw such a scene, they no longer felt that it was the problem of the person who told him the matter, but they all thought that it was really the protagonist in the story who appeared and made him crazy.
Therefore, since then, most of the Ye family members who basically know about this matter have chosen to keep their mouths shut, and only a few have informed their children of this matter before they die, so that they can know the existence of this matter, and at the same time use this incident to warn them to maintain a sense of awe for this place.
Captain Zhang led the group into the door, and without any verbal warning, he found that these guards, Ye Nanshan and other ordinary people all had solemn faces, respectful faces, and awe in their hearts.
Seeing this, Captain Zhang didn't say much, and walked straight down the road to the gate of the law enforcement hall, and at the same time straightened his clothes and hugged his fists.
"Subordinate Zhang Qing was ordered to arrest Young Master Ye Nanshan and return. β
The sound was so loud that it could be heard outside the courtyard wall, but there was still no sound inside the gate of the law enforcement hall, and just as Zhang Qing was about to step forward and knock on the door, the two doors made of precious wood did open silently.
"Take him in, and the rest of the people will go out." β
Except for Zhang Qing and Ye Nanshan, the others all bowed respectfully when they heard this voice, and slowly and orderly withdrew from the courtyard wall, and closed the door with their hands, during which no one had the slightest word.
And when Ye Nanshan heard this voice, his eyes condensed slightly, and his heart sank, how could it be him, could he really not escape?
Without waiting for him to say more, Zhang Qing hurriedly took him in and closed the door.
There were no weapons such as clubs or other weapons used by law enforcement in the door, nor were there instruments such as torture. There are only a few chairs on both sides of the head, and there are no vases and spider plants in the aisle.
The first ten chairs were full of people at this time, and the first one was a middle-aged man, who looked ordinary, but his knife-like face added a little bit of determination. At this time, although the middle-aged man heard the sound of the two people entering the room, he still seemed to be there, his eyes were slightly closed, and he did not speak.
At that time, an old man sitting at the bottom saw Ye Nanshan, couldn't sit still anymore, and pointed at Ye Nanshan in a hateful tone.
"You, a junior, can be regarded as a talented person of my Ye family, if you are willing to concentrate, you may not be able to go far in the future. Why do you want to do such things that are contrary to the morality of your ancestors?"
The old man's voice became more and more fierce, and his hand pointing at Ye Nanshan couldn't help trembling, and his eyes were even more hateful, and the anger in his eyes seemed to burn Ye Nanshan.
And Ye Nanshan was not in the mood to answer the old man's words at the moment, calmed down a little fluctuation in his heart, and then just turned his gaze to the front of him, calmly looking at the middle-aged man sitting on the head.
The middle-aged man seemed to notice the young man who focused his gaze on him at the next place, sighed slightly in his heart, slightly cleaned up the complicated emotions in his heart, and also opened his eyes and stared at Ye Nanshan.
The two just looked at each other like this, neither of them spoke first, and in the end, the middle-aged man couldn't help it, and didn't question loudly like the old man before, but just said softly.
"All these years, it's okay. β
When Ye Nanshan heard the first sentence of the middle-aged man at this time, he immediately felt funny, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hehehe, good, good!
"Alas!"
The middle-aged man's face finally lost the expression of indifference that was always detached from things, sighed heavily, and stopped speaking.
Half a moment passed, and he just waved his hand, and Zhang Qing retreated alone, leaving Ye Nanshan standing alone in front of the hall.
"Tell me, why did you do this? Do you know that poisoning a deacon is counted as mutilating your own clan, and can be a capital crime?" asked the middle-aged man in a flat but serious voice at this moment.
Just as Ye Nanshan was answering this question, there was still a knock on the door.
"Uncle Ye, can I come in?"
