After He Chuan heard this, he finally understood what the fragnt in his hand was.
It was the cauldron that The Great Yu used to suppress the nine perfectures.
No wonder the gods and devils from the outer realms wanted to snatch it. Without it, the dragon energy in the central plains would have dissipated.
In the future, there will be countless disasters in various places.
The tribes in the outer realms could attack the Zhou Dynasty.
The most important thing was that the nine prefectures cauldrons could be used for cultivation. this must have restricted this group of gods and devils, so they wanted to find this treasure.
"It doesn't matter. As long as the bronze fragnt is in my husband's hands, they will not be able to gather the nine prefectures cauldrons." Princess Changning returned the bronze fragnt to He Chuan, her face full of longing.
"That being said, You Majesty still needs to send people to collect the fragnts of the nine prefectures cauldrons as soon as possible. There might be unexpected gains after gathering them." He Chuan liked to plan ahead.
It was useless to hold a bronze fragnt in his hand.
it would be better to gather them all and place them in the hands of the Zhou Dynasty to prevent the gods and devils from the outer realm from having any ideas.
Besides, he didn't know if he needed a complete nine prefectures cauldron. What if it could be used without collecting all of them?
"You Majesty! The Minister of Justice requests an audience!" just as the two of them were getting intimate, the palace maid outside ca to report.
"Announce!" Empress Changning smiled apologetically and sat back on her chair. The smile on her face instantly disappeared, and she had a serious expression.
He Chuan sat at the side and casually picked up a book to read.
The Minister of Justice ca in with sweat all over his head and began to report the recent cases.
Now, there were crooks mixed in with the honest folk in the capital, and cases were happening from ti to ti.
However, most of them were small matters like fighting, which the ministry of justice could handle.
However, a young lady from a wealthy family in the north of the city had been kidnapped yesterday. The next day, a corpse was found, and there were traces of defiling on it.
This was obviously a case of a rapist infiltrating the capital to commit a cri!
There were too many martial arts practitioners in the capital, so it wasn't easy to investigate.
Therefore, the Minister of Justice wanted to borrow so help from Empress Changning. Otherwise it would be difficult to continue with the case.
Since ancient tis, no matter if it was the people of Martial Arts World or the common people of the court, they all hated rapists.
If there were good people, there would be bad people. Since ancient tis, there has been no exception! This was the case for rapists, and the ancient punishnt for such criminals was even more severe.
When the Zhou Dynasty had just been established, it was very troubleso to maintain public security.
At that ti, there was a rapist with excellent qinggong.
This rapist, Cui Xu, had set a shocking record of raping 182 won within ten years!
In ancient tis, rich won had a strong sense of chastity, and the victim would not dare to say anything in order to protect their reputations.
Therefore, Sang Chong had never failed even once in his ten years of prostitution.
It was only when he was about to do evil for the 183rd woman that he was exposed.
The man's disguise was completely exposed and he was imdiately tied up and sent to the governnt office.
After interrogation, the big lecher confessed to the master Gu Cai, there are seven disciples and ten years of roaming evil cris.
The governnt determined that Cui Xu's cris were comparable to the ten evils and sent him to the capital, asking the law to re-convict him.
In the end, the imperial censorate followed the imperial edict and executed the evil Cui Xu with the torture of death by a thousand cuts. At the sa ti, they sent a letter to each province to arrest Cui Xu's seven disciples.
This was what happened to rapists in ancient tis. compared to the current law, it was much more ruthless in ancient tis.
Nowadays, in Zhou Dynasty, you would be executed with the cruel torture of 'death by a thousand cuts' if you were found out. Furthermore, his family mbers would also be discriminated against. After all, he was their own child, and they were raised by them!
Therefore, in ancient tis, it was rare for girls to be hard. On the one hand, the criminal law was harsh. If they were caught, they would be executed with one word or by dismbering them. Moreover, there were brothels to visit.
It wasn't worth it to risk his life to do such a thing!
Not only did this rapist dare to commit a cri, but he also committed a cri in the capital.
The thief was indeed audacious.
In He Chuan's opinion, he could not sympathize with rapists. If they were caught, they would be sentenced to death. Let's see who would dare to commit the sa cri again. This way, many young girls would not lose their chastity and might even lose their lives!
"Can my husband please..." Changning wanted to solve the case as much as possible. If He Chuan could help, the matter could be easily solved!
No one knew if this rapist would continue to commit cris.
If another young girl lost her life because of this, the imperial court would lose its face.
"No problem. Could this lord please explain in detail if the rapist had left behind any items or if anyone had accidentally seen them?" Of course, He Chuan would not refuse. It was a piece of cake.
He also had a deep hatred for rapists.
This kind of person would destroy not only the girl, but also the family.
Only then did the Minister of Justice notice the man beside Empress Changning.
And she had even called him "husband" just now.
"This humble official greets state Duke He!" as an important official of the imperial court, he had naturally heard of He Chuan's existence.
He Chuan was already a legendary figure in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Other than a few people who knew the story, the others were guessing what He Chuan had done to make Empress Changning fall in love with him.
Although they had never t He Chuan, they had heard many different versions of their story.
This was the first ti he had seen him in person, and he felt he spoke very calmly. He did not deliberately try to please Empress Changning, nor did he act high and mighty towards him.
It was as if she was born to make people feel good about her.
"I already know about this matter. You can go back and put up a notice first. Those who provide clues will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold, and those who capture it will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold. In addition, it can also serve as a warning to everyone." He Chuan said softly.
This group of martial arts practitioners had their heads in their pockets, so they still cared much about money.
"This... if the Imperial Court were to issue an announcent, wouldn't..." the minister of justice didn't continue.
It was still up to Empress Changning's reaction.
After all, this matter concerned the face of the Imperial Court.
"Do as my husband says. In addition, I'll inform General Qin to continue strengthening the night defense. The Ministry of Justice should also organize two groups of experienced people to look for clues!" Empress Changning was becoming more and more elegant, like a real ruler of a country.
The Empress had already spoken, so the Minister of Justice naturally had to do as she said.
The Ministry of Justice could also be more relaxed. After all, there were many people in the martial arts world in the capital now. Having soone to help could save a lot of effort.
He was also very impressed with He Chuan. These suggestions would be of great help in capturing the rapist.
"Let hear the little guy's voice!" He Chuan waited for the Minister of Justice to leave. He bent down and placed his ear on Empress Changning's lower abdon. The faint fragrance of jasmine assailed his nose.
His divine sense also entered through empress Changning's ridians, thoroughly examining the future child.
"The children are very healthy. They should be twins!" He Chuan straightened his back and took Changning into his arms.
"If it's two boys, do you want one of them to take your surna?" Empress Changning asked.
"They'll all take your surna." He Chuan shook his head. He didn't belong to this world to begin with, so there was no point in adding to his worries.
The children and grandchildren would have their own fortune. Under Empress Changning's love and care, the two children would definitely live very well.
