Durin heard about the story in the Golden Hall in the afternoon, undoubtedly the news traveled here directly.
Otherwise, how could the events of the Golden Hall cross half of Shangjing and reach Durin's ears so accurately?
Whether the punishment in Chang Tang is severe, in Durin's opinion, it's not at all. This is just the beginning. Back in the day, when Durin worked for the High Tower, even the cockroaches under the wooden floor had to be eliminated to achieve a complete dream for everyone.
There was even a hierarchy of responsibility – like last night's incident where the main culprit would receive ten lashes, the secondary person seven, followers five, and accomplices three.
This means the first to open his mouth gets ten lashes, the second and third get seven, those who laugh heartily get five, and those who show reluctance get three.
Alas, there weren't any.
Thus, six young individuals were reportedly publicly flogged at the execution platform.
