Chapter 210: The Background when Establishing Authority

In terms of official rank, the Northern Dragon Guard Yamen was actually one head lower than the Central Judicial Office. Even the highest official rank in the Northern Dragon Guard Yamen, was only a senior official.

However, when it came to real power, the Northern Dragon Guard Yamen, who controlled the power of arrest, trial, and rumor as the Emperor's pro-army identity, was more than one step ahead of the Central Judicial Office.

Therefore, the gate of the Northern Dragon Guard Yamen was much more spacious than that of the Central Judicial Office.

In particular, today was the first time that the new Governor of the town has made a decision. The situation at the door was naturally different from the past.

Sun Shaozong was riding on the horse, and from a distance, he saw sixteen Dragon Guards lined up in front of the door. Each of them was majestic and had a tall body, standing on the stone steps with a saber, which was unspeakable.

The Dragon Guards, who were guarding the gate, saw Sun Shaozong coming from a distance and hurriedly separated two people to greet him. One of them bowed his hand respectfully and said, "Are you Inspector Sun?"

Although they were all wearing the same gowns, the cloud patterns on their shoulders were different. In addition, there were only a few thousand households in the Yamen. Sun Shaozong was the only one who didn’t walk in the Yamen all year round.

So it was not surprising that they couldn’t recognize Sun Shaozong at a glance.

Sun Shaozong got off his horse and said, "Yes, that’s right. I have been ordered to come here on the request, but I don't know where to wait."

"Report back to Your Excellency, you can go directly to the conference hall."

The man quickly and respectfully said, "The Governor hasn't arrived yet, but Inspector Chen, who is in charge of the punishment, is waiting inside."

Inspector Chen is in charge of punishment?

Isn't that the boss of the Detective Department?

He remembered that he was also suspected at the time of the "blood character" case and later learned that Inspector Chen was working in the south, so there was no doubt.

He threw the reins to the Captain of the Dragon Guard, who was coming up, and followed another man straight to the meeting hall.

Before entering the door, it was quiet. He thought there was no one in it, but after crossing the threshold, he knew that there were not only a few people in it, it was a sea of people!

Looking at the cloud pattern on their shoulders, it was estimated that the Dragon Guards above eighth grade were almost all here.

It was also difficult for them. Some remained standing, and some remained seated without making a sound.

"Lord Sun."

Just as Sun Shaozong stopped at the door, a General immediately came up and said in a respectful voice, "Your position is ahead, please follow me."

The biggest ranks in this hall were in the seventh and eighth grades. In total, about ten hundred people were standing on both sides.

Further inside, there were about ten ordinary ebony chairs, which were almost full of people. It seemed from their dress that they should be the Inspectors of hundreds of households.

At the innermost, there were only six yellow pear wood chairs, two of which were placed in the middle, undoubtedly the seats for the Governor and the Inspector.

The four pieces on both sides should be the positions of the four thousand household Inspectors who were in charge of the Northern Dragon Guards Yamen.

At present, there was only one person on the right side sitting on the six chairs. There was a fat man with a big belly, it must be Chen Xingzhi who was in charge of the punishment.

Sun Shaozong was looking at Chen Xingzhi quietly when he saw the General leading the way, pointing to the first Grandmaster chair on the left and saying, "Lord Sun, please take your seat."

The first on the left?

Sun Shaozong frowned, and Chen Xingzhi's face suddenly collapsed. In fact, just now he was muttering in his heart that the Inspector of the thousand households who was in charge of the punishment was always the first to be ranked below the Governor. When did he get assigned second?

Now, seeing that Sun Shaozong was still the ”new generation” who got to sit at the top of the table, he was not happy.

So, before Sun Shaozong sat down, he said in a cold tone, "So you are Lord Sun? I heard a lot about your reputation. My staff managed to train two talents, but you sent them to the Patrol Camp. Now that you have been promoted to an Inspector of the Thousand Households, I wonder how many people are you going to snatch from our North Town Yamen?"

Sun Shaozong was still hesitating, but as soon as he heard his sarcasm, he sat down on the chair at the left head and smiled. "I indeed sent a mediocre person who had been in the Detective Division for more than ten years but still couldn’t inherit the title of a hundred households to the Patrol Camp."

"Such mediocre person shouldn’t be considered talents, right? Or is it that talent is so important in your hands?"

"You!"

Chen Xingzhi stood up abruptly, glared at Sun Shaozong for a while, but sat back with a sneer and said, "Did you not learn from those sour people to play lip tricks? We, the Northern Dragon Guard Yamen, don't have such a habit."

"What?"

Sun Shaozong pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes. "Listen to what you said, do you want to fight against me privately?"

Chen Xingzhi opened his mouth and looked back and forth at Sun Shaozong's majestic body, and he just snorted and turned away from him in the end.

This guy was really flexible.

Since Sun Shaozong had the upper hand, he didn't chase after him. He picked up the teacup and looked at the people below.

With these conversations, the Inspectors of the hundred households had basically arrived, but the Inspector of the two thousand households was still nowhere to be seen.

While Sun Shaozong was meditating, he heard someone outside growl in a long voice, "Here comes the Governor!"

Everyone stood up in silence. When a figure in a bright yellow Kylin robe flashed out, they all half kneeled and said in unison, "Greetings to the Governor!"

.

The figure in the Kylin robe calmly entered the conference hall and walked to Sun Shaozong and Chen Xingzhi, but paused a little. Then two people flashed out from behind him, half kneeling under Sun Shaozong and Chen Xingzhi.

Damn right!

As expected, he was taken as the background for establishing authority!

Needless to say, these two were the other two Inspectors of the thousand households.

The two Inspectors of the thousand households followed Lu Hui, the Governor of the town, but Chen Xingzhi, the most important one in charge of the punishment, waited here alone and was deliberately arranged under Sun Shaozong. The meaning of suppressing exclusion was simply beyond expression!

Chen Xingzhi was not a fool either. His face turned black immediately. He held his two fat fists together and shook in circles. He didn't know whether he was angry or scared.

This scene was obviously the most important part of the whole conference. In addition, it was just a cliche. historical

Seeing that all that was to be said had been explained, Sun Shaozong was waiting to leave the hall when he heard the Town Governor suddenly raise his voice, saying, "Well, except Inspector Sun, the rest of you may leave first."

Eh?

Did they prepare a sequel for him for this play today?
