Chapter 5101

In just one week, the Ministry of Justice has handled tens of thousands of cases.

Under the observation of people with a heart, most of these cases involve wealthy families. Many children of aristocratic families who committed serious crimes before escaped pursuit because of their backgrounds, but now they are also arrested.

No matter who, no matter what background, as long as they commit a serious crime, they will be investigated afterwards.

Under this severe attack, not only many real murderers were at large, but even some dark corners of the imperial capital were swept away.

Dozens of underground gangs have been detained, and tens of thousands of cultists have been arrested by the Ministry of Justice and punished for their crimes.

Corresponding to this, the imperial capital was rarely clean and peaceful. Even if he was a grumpy scoundrel on weekdays, he would only dare to speak in a low voice at this time, and would no longer dare to run wild as before.

Above the sky, officers of the Ministry of Punishment in black can be seen everywhere, shuttling back and forth, and the targets in charge of arrest are also gradually expanding.

There was a county king of the Zhao family who opened a tooth shop in secret, kidnapped some young children and sold them to other places.

This is just this county king, one of countless industries, and it is quite hidden, but it was finally investigated by the Ministry of Punishment.

In the past, the Jinyi Longwei, who stood behind the prince and was responsible for protecting him, chose to back down at this time.

Countless Punishment officials rushed forward, imprisoned the prince's cultivation base, and then escorted him to the Punishment Prison.

Since then, everyone has inquired about many crimes from the king's body. After several crimes were punished together, he was actually sentenced to be executed.

On the day of the execution, countless people watched the scene where the county king's head fell to the ground, and the scene was quite shocking.

This is the prince of the Zhao family, and no one would have thought that such a noble person would actually have a head on the ground one day.

Blood stained the floor tiles of the execution ground, and many families who were quite opposed to each other before, all stopped their voices at this time.

They felt Lu Yu's determination.

Even the prince of the Zhao family can be executed, let alone them?

With the silence of the family, the action of the Ministry of Punishment became more and more violent, people were constantly being tried, and cases hidden in the past were revealed.

And because of Li Si's reasons, the power of the Ministry of Punishment has suddenly expanded, and it seems to have a tendency to override the Sixth Division.

Along the way of the action of the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Household also received a note from Li Si, and began to strictly examine the behaviors of various wealthy and aristocratic families for forcibly occupying land, wanton slavery, and tax evasion.

As a result, a rather spectacular scene appeared in the Imperial Capital City.

In front of the gate of an aristocratic family, the officer of the Ministry of Justice in black just took the criminal away from the mansion, and the officer of the Ministry of Household in red came to the door immediately and began to investigate the taxation and land issues.

Many aristocratic families were silent, and for the first time they felt fear in front of officials.

Those who evade tax shall be judged according to whether the circumstances are serious or not. Many aristocratic families have to pay fines in addition to making up for the missed taxes in the past, and even some noble families face prison.

As for the occupied land, the government confiscated all of it, and the family also faced huge fines.

However, on this point, the court made a lenient treatment.

If, within the specified time, the tax is paid and the land is voluntarily surrendered, it can be handled leniently.

For a time, the Imperial Palace was overcrowded, and countless wealthy families sent their respective messengers to bow their heads and admit their mistakes.
