Department of National Law, General Office.

Jiang Ningyun, who had not yet rested, had already received the announcement from His Highness, but did not immediately leave to enter the palace.

It was already night, and she was no longer wearing the full ceremonial robe and short armor she wore when going to court. She was only still wearing a red short robe and white trousers, with a long ponytail tied behind her head, swaying with the running of the horse under her. With.

"Lord General Secretary, Lord Cadre Department Lieutenant is already waiting for you at Dingfa Pavilion."

A subordinate rode his horse forward to report. Jiang Ningyun nodded. Accompanied by his subordinate who opened the way, he kicked the horse's crotch and sped forward.

Just like the State Military Department, the State Law Department also has eight departments: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Dui, Kan, Xun, Gen, and Li, which are under the jurisdiction of each department.

Among them, Duan Qingzhu, a lieutenant of the Kun Ministry, was actually the sister of the commander-in-chief Jiang Ningyun and a puppet controlled by the concubine Jiang Keyin. Each ministry had jurisdiction over several prefectures in Simeng according to region, with the exception of one.

The Ministry of War of the State does not engage in foreign wars, but takes protecting the safety of the emperor as its own responsibility.

The cadres of the National Law Department are also not in charge of any one jurisdiction. This department only oversees one area.

Dingfa Pavilion.

The Dingfa Pavilion is a heavenly prison. Those who commit serious crimes and are not immediately punished should be thrown into the Dingfa Pavilion and under the joint supervision of the General Office and cadres, the chaos can be quelled.

The prisoners who were imprisoned in this Dingfa Pavilion were rarely heard of seeing the light of day again.

"Lord Souji!"

In front of the cadre headquarters, the officers and soldiers of the Law Department lined up to greet Jiang Ningyun's arrival. She dismounted lightly and showed no hesitation:

"Where is the prisoner? Is he okay recently?"

A man who came forward was a cadre officer. He lowered his head and reported: "Master General, the prisoner has no illness, but he has been silent recently. His subordinates have ordered someone to take him to change clothes and take a bath. He is now in Dingfa Pavilion. Waiting for your lord."

Underground of the cadre headquarters is the famous Dingfa Pavilion.

It is precisely because such a general camp was built directly above Dingfa Pavilion that the people of Siyang were a little relieved about the Tianlao where the murderer was imprisoned.

If not, even if this place is already on the outskirts of Siyang, it will definitely make people panic and it will not do any good.

Jiang Ningyun nodded and came to the gate of Dingfa Pavilion behind the general camp. Behind the door was a long staircase leading underground.

The cadre officer behind her was about to step forward to lead the way, but Jiang Ningyun raised his hand and stopped him:

"No need, just wait here."

————————

However, Tianlao does not seem to look like a Tianlao.

The first few floors do have dim candlelight, tight security, and an unbearably humid environment.

But when he reached the fifth floor, it was as if he had entered a suddenly enlightened Taoyuan Township. What appeared in front of Jiang Ningyun was a rather depressing large room.

Elegant incense, clean, wooden floor covered with bamboo mats.

If the people standing at the Dafang door were not guards but servants, and the railings that separated the main room from the Dingfa Pavilion corridor were removed, this place would be almost an ordinary study room for a wealthy family.

It's just that there is no wall that blocks outsiders' eyes.

An old man with white hair and white beard was sitting quietly at the low table in the middle of the big room. When he noticed Jiang Ningyun's arrival, he actually showed her a kind smile.

"Lord General, long time no see."

Jiang Ningyun inadvertently frowned slightly, and soon restored his emotionless face. He stepped forward and nodded slightly, paused for a moment and then spoke:

"Master General, His Highness has summoned the Third Division. If you are ready, please come with me to the palace."

She paused and added:

"You are still a key criminal in Dingfa Pavilion, and I will personally escort you all the way. I hope you can forgive me for any offense I have made."

The old man's eyebrows were raised slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged:

"How could it be possible? Mr. General Secretary has fulfilled his duties and is truly a role model for the three divisions. Wen has given you several decades in vain. I am really ashamed."

The two guards handed the shackles to Jiang Ningyun. She looked at the old man in front of her and placed the shackles against his wrist.

——————————

"boom!"

There was a dull loud noise, and the huge grizzly bear shook its bloody body and fell into the snow and mud.

Tantai Ming looked around with vigilance. His soldiers had formed several battle formations and were surrounding and killing three or four monsters that he had released one by one.

But there are still many magical beasts resting in the valley.

It is impossible to go around, not to mention what mishaps may occur if we continue marching. If these monsters suddenly wake up and attack the troops from the rear, how much damage will be caused, even if they do not attack the troops, they rush down Bailan Mountain and rush into the sky.

In Eagle City, that was also an unimaginable disaster.

If you can handle it now, it's better to handle it first.

Tantai Ming thought this way, formed a magic seal on his hand, and suddenly slapped the two giant wolves in front of him. The giant wolves suddenly seemed to have recovered from petrification, shook off the snow on their bodies, and roared.

"Ready, go!"

The soldiers under his command once again formed their formation, preparing to surround and kill the two newly awakened ferocious beasts.

Suddenly, Tantai Ming seemed to notice something. He frowned slightly and rushed to the ground, raising his hand to stop the soldier.

"Back off!"

His orders were not loud, but they were very effective.

The soldiers stopped moving, but the two magic wolves would not stop and rushed towards him one from the left and one from the right.

But Tantai Ming's attention was obviously not on the two demon wolves. He seemed to be listening intently to some noise. He casually raised his right hand like a sword finger and raised it towards the two demon wolves. His hand suddenly pointed down at the ground.

"fall!"

There were two loud bangs, as if an invisible giant hammer in the air hit the two demon wolves. They immediately let out painful wails and were pressed to the ground. The joints of their forelimbs that were still running were even broken.

Being crushed.

But even though they fell to the ground, the two giant wolves were still scratching the ground with their hind legs like crazy, trying their best to stand up again and rush forward.

Even with such a loud movement, Tantai Ming's attention still did not waver.

Suddenly, like a hunter who had finally caught his prey, he suddenly raised his head, clapped his hands in front of his chest, and shouted angrily:

"come over!"

A violent storm arose, and deep in the valley where Tantai Ming was staring, a pale light suddenly lit up, and a figure was thrown into the air as if being thrown with great force, its hands and feet dancing in panic.

Then a shrill bird song sounded, and the figure stopped strangely in mid-air. Then, it was suddenly thrown away from a place where it was clear that there was no way to rely on it, and it hit Tantai Ming.

It was a West Asian, wearing the armor of the Knights of the State Church. He was looking at Tantai Ming in disbelief with a look of horror on his face.

He couldn't believe it, why would Simeng arrange such a powerful person in this inexplicable deep mountain?

After a brief moment of shock, the West Asian clenched his teeth and raised his right hand, as if he was suddenly looking forward to death.

"I-"

As soon as he uttered two words, there was a shrill sound of wind, and his right hand was cut off in the air and immediately grasped tightly by Tantai Ming.

It was a strange, shining nail, engraved with the same runes as those around the monsters.

Tantai Ming immediately understood that this person's plan was to release all the monsters here and directly kill the Simeng army here.

"you!"

The West Asians' eyes were wide-eyed and their chests were filled with anger.

This kind of opponent should be dealt with by the group leader or deputy group leader. Why are they here?

And why did you put yourself in trouble?

Tantai Ming grabbed the rune nail with his left hand, and immediately grabbed the West Asian soldier's throat with his right hand. He smashed the opponent's thigh bone with one knee and smashed it. Ignoring the opponent's wailing like a pig being slaughtered, he lowered his head and said coldly:

"Your life is your own, not the church's."
