The Night Outside the Capital

"Do you remember last year, when I used the Black Fist to strike Guo Baokun? Did the capital government come around, asking me about it?"

"No."

"Do you remember the incident in the spring exam this year? Did the Ministry of Punishment come around, asking me about it?"

"No." Fan Sizhe was a little confused as he looked at him. Was his big brother seeking to remind him of the Qing Kingdom’s laws? But the problem was, those two cases had threads that led nowhere. Any effort to resolve them, was hopeless as they had pretty much disappeared. In the Qing Kingdom, an individual’s power could go above the law, and what Fan Xian seemed to be telling his little brother went against what he had preached in regards to justice.
