Su Guanying arched her eyebrows and looked at Shi Mingcheng, her eyes full of scrutiny.
Shi Mingcheng spoke calmly: "The Imperial City Inspection Mansion does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Military Affairs Hall, nor under the Political Affairs Hall. Why is that? The Department of Penalty assumes its responsibilities directly under the Son of Heaven! This is the national policy of Great Qi. Governor Su suggests that the South Border should not set a precedent, and I deeply agree. The Son of Heaven trusts and loves Marquis Wu'an; this is known across the world. It's most appropriate to let Marquis Wu'an take charge of this Department of Penalty."
