"Everyone can whitewash the peace. It is in line with everyone's opinion that you have to defend yourselves, but you have to know that you are officials of the Underworld City, and everything in the Undercity City is closely related to you. If it was just Cui Changting, would this be the case?
?If it is true that he has such a major problem, why don't you report it to Tianman Mansion? Fang Yun, as the general magistrate of the Underworld City, have you fulfilled your duties?" Gong Xinlan scolded everyone, and finally pointed the finger.
It was directed towards Fang Yun.
After Fang Yun heard this, he immediately stood up and knelt down and said: "I have not fulfilled my duty, please punish me. I am really not an official. I am incompetent. Now that it has led to such a situation, I cannot shirk the responsibility."
responsibility."
"This is what you said yourself. I know very well what you have been doing in the Thieves City over the years. Your general sentence is temporarily exempted for now. I will make a decision after an investigation into your responsibilities." Gong Xinlan
Following his words, he immediately removed his official position.
Hearing this, Fang Yun was overjoyed. He glanced at Lin Haoming subconsciously, and then scolded him again for his incompetence and negligence, as if he really wanted to put all the blame on himself.
Originally, all the officials in the thieves' city didn't have much favorable impressions of this confused Tong San, but now that he wanted to shoulder all the relevant responsibilities on his own, they immediately became very fond of him and wished they could find an opportunity to communicate with this drunkard.
Drink three hundred cups.
Lin Haoming was the only one present who knew that this was Gong Xinlan's opportunity to remove Fang Yun from his official position, which could be regarded as Lin Haoming's fulfillment of his promise to him.
Of course, Gong Xinlan still didn't show anything at this time, and even her expression was still serious. After shouting away Fang Yun, she continued: "The Thief City cannot be without its owner for a day. There is no way to judge the city owner, and I can't.
It is impossible to stay here forever. In the absence of a new appointment, Zuo Tongzhi Xiang Xuehai will temporarily act as the city lord. The position of general judge is related to supervision. The case is handled by Lin Haoming, the executioner."
It is normal for everyone to let Xiang Xuehai temporarily act as the city lord, but to let Lin Haoming temporarily act as the judge, this is a bit surprising.
You must know that there are still supervisors in the Tongpan Mansion, and they are fifth-rank officials. Although they are only from the fifth rank, Lin Haoming is only a sixth-rank official. Now it is completely illegal to let low-rank people control them.
A matter of officialdom rules.
Of course, this was Gong Xinlan's order. With the city lords withdrawing their verdict just now, who dares to question it? The most important thing is that many people present are also aware of the relationship between Gong Xinlan and Lin Haoming, and the husband and wife.
Naturally, it is even harder to interrupt when it comes to personal matters.
Of course, besides Lin Haoming, the other two affected people, Ju Yehao and Deng Peng, did not look very good at this moment.
Both of them are Cui Changting's people, and they are also people who defected in the past. Now Gong Xinlan is willing to violate the rules of officialdom rather than use them. It is obvious that both of them have a premonition that their future prospects will not be too good.
Normally, under such circumstances, the two of them would most likely be transferred away. If there were a lot of unclean things on their bodies, they might even lose their official positions and be sent to the virtual world.
Xiang Xuehai and Lin Haoming, whose names were called, both agreed.
After meeting him and agreeing, Gong Xinlan continued to give instructions: "Cui Changting's case is of great importance. Nothing like this has happened in Tianman Mansion or even the entire Kun County since the last Ten Thousand Demons War. It must be thoroughly investigated.
, Lin Haoming, Zhou Mengli, I will give you three months to catch Cui Changting and his gang members, and the others will take this matter as a priority and have to block the handling of the case!"
"Yes!" This time, Lin Haoming and Zhou Mengli agreed at the same time.
Next, Gong Xinlan issued a series of orders, and as the city lords were arrested, the Thieves City soon entered martial law again.
Lin Haoming temporarily took over the duties of general judge, but at the same time he still took care of investigating the case of the city lord Cui Changting, and for a while he became the busiest person in the Thief City.
The capture of the lord of a city shocked the entire city of thieves. Although the city lord and officials headed by Yang Yingcheng were extremely low-key at this time, with the joint investigation by Lin Haoming and Zhou Mengli, many people were
Thrown into prison, it can be said that a major purge completely started after Gong Xinlan arrived.
Lin Haoming was actually very clear about Gong Xinlan's orders. The so-called real purpose of Cui Changting and his gang members was to remove the influence of the Wu family in the city. As the son-in-law of the Wu family, Cui Changting would naturally have no good intentions for those who turned to him.
Life goes by, and of course the first among them is Yang Yingcheng.
Less than three days after Gong Xinlan arrived, the head of the six houses, the head of the Lifang Office, was rushed in and taken away directly from the Lifang Yamen. This made a group of officials, big and small, see
They were stunned, and in the next two days, nearly half of the staff in the official office were arrested. Although their charges have not been determined, there is definitely no way for the judge to reinstate them.
At the same time that Yang Yingcheng was taken down, the Tongxuan Mansion was also in a turmoil. Zhou Mengli led the people who patrolled the government office and broke into the Tongxuan Mansion and took Ju Yehao away from everyone, along with several officials, big and small.
They were thrown into jail together.
That same night, Zhou Mengli rushed into Deng Peng's home without stopping, dragged Deng Peng out of bed and took away Deng Peng, who was sleeping with his wife and concubines.
Ju Yehao and Deng Peng had been fighting in the Tongxuan Mansion for thousands of years, but they never expected that they would be imprisoned together in the end. Although when Gong Xinlan asked Lin Haoming to temporarily take over the position of Tongxuan, the two had a bad relationship.
I had a premonition, but I didn't expect that this would happen so quickly.
Both of them are very clear that they are on the wrong team. Although they have not done any big evil, they are definitely not without small mistakes. They sincerely want to arrest you. According to the laws of heaven, it is a blessing to not be sent to the virtual world but to lose your official position.
.
Just when the Tongpanfu Tongpan and the left and right supervisors were all removed from their official titles or directly captured, the panicked Tongpanfu officials discovered that Lin Haoming arrived here the next day with the commander of the Diansi, Li Shijie.
At this moment, people in Tongpan Mansion knew that Tongpan Mansion had completely changed.
The news that three senior officials of Cui Changting's family had been captured soon reached the ears of Bao Wanchang, the only senior official of Cui's family. Although the director of the military room was still recuperating at home, he was no longer in the mood to recuperate.
, especially a fifth-level official like the left and right supervisor, he would take it down as soon as he said it, which made him even more aware of the other party's intention to pick up and clean up the opponent.
He sent his confidants to go out to inquire about the news, while he stayed in his room and drank. At this moment, he also understood that what should come will eventually come.
While he was half drunk and half awake, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, as well as the screams of his own wife and concubines, which suddenly made him sober. It seemed that he, the last Cui general, could not escape.
