At this time, Zhaoyangjun was in the royal family's courtyard, and Mick and Hue were listening to the report of their subordinates:

"The two sons, the tall horses are really tight, and they launched a mad rampage all the way, overturning thirty or forty people, and no less than seven or eight people were seriously injured, some of whom were already dying. Once they sue the government, Ruipu will definitely not be able to bypass them. ”

The servant said quickly, and Mick pondered and asked:

"Have you sent all the people who did it?"

"Back to Mi Gongzi, he has been sent back to his hometown, and he can't find any of them."

"Good." Mick looked at Hu and said, "Brother Hu, where is the horse team going to be said okay?" ”

"It was arranged last night, as long as the horses were buckled into the government office, they were kept and stolen from a few horses."

"Okay, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, with this horse, we can be majestic in the future, hehaha......"

Mick laughed loudly, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth, a faintly white tongue coating, and deep tooth marks.

Around four or five o'clock in the morning, Wang Ruipu reported the "horse hitting people", and nearly 40 people were injured, and Qiu Ruipu was immediately furious.

Although Wang Juan's family is a wealthy metropolis, public security has always been poor, stealing and stealing are just petty fights, and it is almost common to lead "underworld" fights for territory every once in a while.

Of course, the folk customs are actually quite simple these days, and there are really not many murders. Even if there is, if you want to destroy the corpse that was silently annihilated by the powerful and powerful, or you are killed by a brawl to vent your anger, a real planned and purposeful "murder" is indeed rare.

Just opened the yamen today, and received such a "big case" of hurting people, Qiu Ruipu is naturally very angry, and he plans to kill chickens and monkeys to severely punish the perpetrators.

Waiting really impatiently, Qiu Ruipu asked:

"Why haven't the prisoners come to court?"

The official answered:

"Back to my lord, maybe someone is dissatisfied or escaped, and Team Zhang is going to arrest him."

"Humph!" Qiu Ruipu snorted angrily: "These treacherous businessmen are all evildoers, and if they are caught, they will be severely punished." ”

As soon as Qiu Ruipu's words fell, a soldier outside the hall rushed into the public hall panting:

"Lord Qiu, Team Zhang is having something important to report."

"What's the matter, don't let the thief who caused the accident run away."

The soldier panted and stepped forward:

"It's not true, it's just that the person who detained it is ......"

"Who is it?"

Qiu Ruipu asked, his face was really not good-looking, and the soldier stepped forward and whispered in his ear:

"It's Yongxing Hou, Yongxing Hou's horse hit someone."

"What!" Qiu Ruipu was shocked: "What about people now? ”

"Just get to the office."

"Quick, follow me."

Qiu Ruipu didn't say a word, he changed his anger, straightened his crown and clothes, and hurriedly went out of the house to greet him.

After a short while, Team Zhang was "escorting" Bai Liyan and others to the outside of the mansion, Qiu Ruipu recognized Bai Liyan and the Eighth Lady at a glance, so he stepped forward and was busy saluting:

"Xiaguan Qiu Ruipu has seen Da Si Nong."

"Lord Qiu is exempt, this Hou is here to disturb Lord Qiu for the matter of horses hitting people."

"In this way, it is indeed the horse of the big Si Nong who hit a passerby." Qiu Ruipu asked, looking at the row of tall horses behind him, thinking that he would not be wrong. He has also seen the world, and there is also the Marquis Mansion of Qianli Yuexuan Pavilion, and he will never admit his mistake.

Bai Liyan came to the horse that caused the accident and said:

"The official's subordinates have no way to ride the horse, it is this black horse that was frightened and collided with the neighborhood, and Ben Hou has ordered someone to hire a famous doctor to rescue the aftermath to alleviate the suffering of the sick. All losses arising therefrom shall be compensated by Benhou. ”

"Dasi Nong's good deeds, this official has thanked the Hou Ye here on behalf of the victims."

"Huh!" Bailiyan waved his hand: "Suffering and suffering are given to others, and Lord Qiu can metabolize Benhou for the victims." This matter will be ordered by a special person to deal with the aftermath, and also ask Lord Qiu to make some convenience to Benhou. ”

"Yes, yes, this official immediately ordered someone to ask the injured person, name, place of residence, and details of his home and report it to Lord Si Nong."

"Then there will be a lot of work, Lord Qiu."

Bai Liyan raised her hand and gave a slight salute, and Qiu Ruipu was busy returning the salute:

"Lord Si Nong's words are serious. Please also sit in the house, some procedures are unavoidable, and I hope that you can cooperate. ”

"Over the years, Benhou has also neglected the administration of the king's family, and it is rare to come to your mansion, and there are just some things to ask Lord Qiu."

"Don't dare, don't dare, if Lord Si Nong has anything to ask, this official will tell you the truth."

Qiu Ruipu is the distant cousin of Xuanting Hou Qiaolian, after the official establishment of the city, due to the special geographical location and economic conditions brought huge economic profits, Wang Dependent was upgraded from the county to the main city, placed Taishou and the city Sima, and was elected by the Xuanting and Luhou two families to serve as the Taishou and the city Sima.

Qiu Ruipu is the nephew recommended by Bailiyan's father-in-law, and the Wang's Chengfu Sima is Liao Ping, the core disciple of the salt lord recommended by Luhou.

Qiu Ruipu actually has no special strengths, and his only strength is that he eats all over good and evil with fallacies. Be upright and selfless, and no one dares to provoke the evil door. In the special environment of the king's family, no one can serve as the Taishou, and he has to be able to eat the soft nail of Qiu Ruipu.

Of course, it is obviously impossible to expect such people to be incorruptible, and they are not operable in reality. Bailiyan is very clear about the truth that "when the water is clear, there are no fish", to use people to do things, and to be thrifty and keep a family, the current environment is simply unrealistic.

As long as it is within the basic principles, do not step on the red line, pay taxes honestly at regular and fixed points, do not hurt nature, do some business, and do some extra money to collect small favors. Anyway, the privileges of the nobility are open, and how to handle the scale of crimes lies in the government, and if you want to suffer less living crimes, the benefits are indispensable.

At present, the basic conditions for the independence of the modern administration and judiciary are not yet available, and the traditional bureaucracy can still be used, and how to improve the efficiency of the former bureaucracy, interests and blood ties are often more effective than any other friendship.

In the past few years since Qiu Ruipu took office, he has made a fortune, and there is no need to be greedy for gold and silver money for the sake of corrupting the law, which will lead to death. In addition, the backer is already hard, and Qiu Ruipu's official is quite smooth.

But when things come here, it's not as simple as Bailiyan took for granted, Qiu Ruipu poured bitter water as soon as he came up, and the inside story was unexpected.

"And things like that."

"No, these 'outstretched hands' have thieves, and many of them are not natives. Groups of 10 people in a party, small thieves, large burglaries, gangs of fights and brawls are quite fierce, the government can only be locked up for a few months, at most three or five years of hard labor, and then get away with it, which is really a headache.

If you change the past, stealing once to change it, stealing twice is to cut off a finger, stealing three times is to cut off another finger, until you cut off your hand and arm. Now the law is sympathetic to the people, but it has no punitive effect, which makes the government very embarrassed. ”

"And how many people are there?"

"1,500 to 1,800 people have still been caught and recorded, and I don't know how many others have not been caught or hidden."

"Reaching out" is a general term for theft groups at the moment, but there are still sects that make a living from stealing. For example, there are owners who specialize in stealing, but what people steal is a national treasure, which is not a level at all. Even if you are caught stealing from the territory of Xianguo, as long as you show your identity, you can't do anything.

After the prosperity of Xianguo, the judicial system was initially reformed, and the cruel criminal law was almost eliminated, which also contributed to crime, because the cost and threshold of crime were low.

In the past, it took a finger to be caught stealing twice, but now you only need to squat in prison for a few months and have enough food, although the taste of the food is not good, but the thief is not stealing because he does not have enough to eat.

At present, the living standard in the territory of the princes is low, and the basic needs of people are survival. After being released from prison, they continue to steal again, and after being caught, they eat in prison, and some people are like this for the rest of their lives.

In addition, there is a kind of people, from small thieves to big thieves, and even big brothers, with their own turf and horses, and their lives are glamorous, such criminals spend all day drinking, and at night take their brothers to grab the land and collect protection money.

To say that the development of Wang Juan's signs is really beyond Bai Liyan's expectations, his energy is focused on major policies and industry, commerce, education, science and technology, such a small people's life scene, should be under the jurisdiction of the public security yamen, which will be a matter of concern to the national leaders, so I never thought that Wang Juanhui will have the characteristics of modern society one step ahead.

The problem, however, is that this social phenomenon, which has become much ahead of its time, is out of touch with the current judicial system, and the law has lost its deterrent effect because the punishment for torture has been abolished.

The local underworld forces in Xianguo are only the tip of the iceberg, and at the same time as the judicial reform in Xianguo, foreign criminals have rushed into the country to commit crimes. Ten thieves and thugs, nine of whom are from abroad, all come to pan for gold and eat.

Qiu Ruipu, who listened to it, was bitter, and Baili Yan asked him:

"Since the royal family has committed such a heinous crime, has Lord Qiu ever written to the court to report this matter?"

"It's been played, but there's been no news."

"It is said that this matter is under the jurisdiction of the priest, and the law was also the main practice of Benhou back then, and since the royal family has such a bad phenomenon, it should be proposed to Benhou, how can it have no impact at all."

Bai Liyan did not remember that the priest had mentioned the criminal phenomenon of the king's family in the foreign court meeting and the state political supervisor, since Qiu Ruipu had been in the imperial court, the criminal case should be interrogated by the judge, and the major bad incidents related to the dignity of the judiciary should be reported to the king of Xian or the cabinet for disposal, and there was no reason to stay in the priest's mansion to deal with it alone.

Taking a step back, within the scope of the secretary's authority, the official affairs that he has the power to dispose of can be disposed of separately without reporting to the Xianwang and the cabinet, but it is impossible to go unanswered. Moreover, this incident was a major mistake that was not expected at the beginning of the revision of the law, and there was no reason why the priest should not report it to the cabinet.

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan became more and more confused, and at this time, Wei Qi hurriedly entered the hall to report:

"Lord Qiqi, Zhu Cheng's horse has found some abnormalities."

"What's the anomaly?" Bailiyan asked.

"Zhu Cheng's mount has a bruise on the thigh of the right front leg, vaguely oozing blood, it seems that he was hit by something like a stone."

"And here's it, let's go and see."

Seeing Bai Liyan's expression change, Qiu Ruipu in the hall hurriedly asked:

"Lord Sinon, what is this?"

"The horses involved in the accident have found fresh wounds, and Ben Hou has gone to take a look."
