Chapter 1478: Pei Cheng

But despite his shouting, the scholars outside the court had their minds cleared and began to discuss.

"Prime Minister Gao has a prominent position, even the Pei family would find it hard to shake him. If it weren't for love, why would Young Master Pei offend the Duke of the State's residence? Young Master Pei is clearly lying!"

"Lord Gao is right. Even if this matter is absurd, it might not be that the young master of the Pei family set a trap on purpose? After all, who would think that the young master of the Pei family would be so ruthless to himself?"

"Doing the opposite, worthy of being the young master of the Pei family, a family of sages, this plan... is absolute!"

"Yeah, I almost believed it. Think carefully, when has Lord Gao ever beaten anyone? Let alone the Duke of the State taking action!"

"Prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain. We have misunderstood the Living Yama!"

"To frame and slander, he actually used our sympathy. This young master of the Pei family has no face left!"

"Shameless, even a shameless person like me would despise this kind of behavior!"

Of course, there were those in the crowd who firmly believed in Pei Ji, but compared to the momentum of public opinion, they were directly extinguished.

This was because of Gao Yang's construction of schools and his strategy regarding Zhao Guo; Gao Yang's status in the hearts of scholars was extremely high, which caused public opinion to lean to one side.

That ten million was truly not spent in vain!

Once this money was spent, there would naturally be great Confucian scholars to debate the classics for Gao Yang!

Pei Ji pointed at Gao Yang, his body trembling violently.

Gao Yang is a human, he is directly eating him!

"Prime Minister Gao, you damn... damn..."

Pei Ji's chest heaved violently with anger, his face turning green.

But before he could finish his sentence, he heard another slap of the gavel.

Slap!

Lu Wen's expression was majestic as he said.

"The young master of the Pei family uses foul language, insults a court official, refuses to change despite repeated teaching, and shows contempt for the court!"

"According to our Da Qian 'Qian Law', he shall be punished with five heavy strokes!"

Even if he didn't look at the statements of both sides, he knew the truth, but ever since Gao Yang became Prime Minister, he had made up his mind to be on good terms with him.

Although the Pei family was strong, in front of the Living Yama, he felt it didn't count for much.

What else was there to think about?

Lord Gao, it's you!

Following Lu Wen's order, the yamen runners immediately stepped forward.

Pei Ji was shocked.

What does this mean?

He, a victim, came to cry for justice, the perpetrator was unscathed, yet he had to receive five heavy strokes?

Soon.

Pei Ji was pressed onto a chair and firmly secured.

The yamen runners were also clever and naturally saw the situation on the field, so they struck without mercy.

These five heavy strokes were all solid and hit the flesh, causing Pei Ji to let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.

"Ah!"

"Ah, ah!" ===== CHAPTER 1480 =====
