Under the hazy moonlight, I saw Zhang Laoqi turning around and blowing a whistle.
A military officer who fell to the ground got up and followed Zhang Laoqi's footsteps while cursing.
It was also strange. The dogs in the temple began to bark when they smelled human scent from a distance. But when Zhang Laoqi walked over, he heard the dogs whining a few times but not barking.
"The one following Zhang Laoqi is Chou San'er!" Zhao Sili whispered, "His family has been killing dogs for generations! No matter what kind of vicious dog he is, they won't dare to bark as long as they smell his scent!"
He Guangyi was a little confused, "Why did someone who has been killing dogs for generations become an official?"
"His father let the official serve for a lifetime and lived for nothing. In a fit of anger, he took out half his life savings and bought him a job as an official!" Zhao Sili said with a smile.
Hearing this, He Guangyi curled his lips.
Although he is said to be an official, he is actually a servant in the yamen. He has no salary and can only wear official clothes to pretend to be a tiger. But he also knows that even a white servant in the yamen is a great figure in the eyes of ordinary people.
.Not to mention that after getting mixed up, there are many more ways to make money than his grandfather and father killed dogs!
Zhao Sili added, "Since he became an official, his business of killing dogs has become more prosperous than before!"
He Guangyi said in surprise, "Why?"
"Hehe! Because he is a poor official!" Zhao Sili said with a smile, "Over in Xicheng, they are the only ones who can kill dogs and sell their meat, and no one else can do it!"
"Ha!" He Guangyi snorted and mocked, "Fortunately, he is just a servant of the Military and Horse Department. If he were a member of my Jinyi Guard, I am afraid that he is the only one in the entire capital who can sell dog meat!"
"What a human being!" Zhao Sili sighed, "Wearing these clothes, that's the reason!"
"Ha!" He Guangyi just smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, Zhao Sili pursed his lips towards the distance, "Go in!"
~~
Under the moonlight, Zhang Laoqi and Chou Saner seemed to have been waiting for a while after throwing things into the courtyard wall.
Then one person stepped on the other person's shoulder, another person was riding on the wall and stretched out his hand, and they both climbed in at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, the closed door of the temple suddenly opened a crack.
"Come in!" He Guangyi waved his hand with a cold face.
The guards in brocade robes holding military crossbows rushed forward with a roar.
"Tsk..."
Zhao Sili frowned secretly and said in his heart, "It's still rough! It's dark under the lamp, and I went from room to room. Wouldn't it shock people to go in like this?"
Sure enough, the next moment, screams and sounds of fighting suddenly erupted in Lingyin Temple.
"Why are you still standing there? It has nothing to do with you?"
Zhao Sili kicked Fan Guanghua on the waist and shouted, "Go in and help!"
"Yes!" Fan Guanghua whipped out the Yanling Saber from his waist, "Brothers, follow me!"
~~
Two quarters of an hour later, Lingyin Temple became peaceful again under the night sky.
There were twenty-two monks and fifteen unidentified monks in the temple, totaling thirty-seven. Two of them resisted fiercely and were killed on the spot, while the rest were captured and tied up.
As for the Jinyi Guards, the City Defense Army, and the Soldiers and Horses Division, there were only two people with sprained legs, and one had his calf stabbed.
When the officers and soldiers went in, these flower monks and the gangsters were already drunk. If they were not drunk and were determined to resist, the officers and soldiers would not be able to catch them so easily.
"Damn it!"
He Guangyi looked at the things that his men had found from the temple's warehouse and the people who were tied up, and he cursed in a rare moment, "He is really a flower monk!" As he said that, he looked at the human-like and dog-like skin, but
The great monk of Lingyin Temple, whose eyes were full of viciousness, smiled and said, "Master Hou, when we caught them, they were all sleeping with their arms around the prostitutes!"
Zhao Sili knelt down and looked at the great monk of Lingyin Temple carefully, "What's your real name?"
"Which yamen do these officials belong to?" The great monk stared at Zhao Sili, "The so-called mountains and rivers meet! Can you please show your respect today? If possible, I will never show my face in the capital again. Everything in this temple belongs to
Some officials!"
"Haha!" Fan Guanghua wiped the blood on his hands and laughed, "Even if we don't let you go, everything in your temple will still be ours!"
"Wait!" He Guangyi narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, you still have something good to hide?"
At this time, Jinyiwei had already found a lot of things in the temple, including cash, banknotes, goldware, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., a dazzling array.
It seems that Lingyin Temple not only sells children, but also sells stolen goods and hides dirty things for gangsters.
"It just depends on whether the officials are willing to let the villain go!" the great monk said again.
"I thought he was a big bandit, but he is just a brainless fool!" Zhao Sili scolded, "Don't you even know who is arresting you? Or are you just lucky and think it's something else?"
The great monk lowered his head and his eyes flashed.
"I am a Jin Yiwei! I have been ordered to arrest you!" He Guangyi sneered, then turned to Han Wu and said, "Don't kill him, ask him what else he is hiding!"
"Hehe!" Han Wu smiled cruelly, "I understand!"
Zhao Sili added, "These people are going to be interrogated. Let them explain everything about themselves! These people are masters who won't shed tears until they see the coffin. They have to work hard!"
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis!" Han Wu raised the corner of his mouth, "The Army and Horse Department is good at climbing over walls and entering the hospital, but it is our Jinyiwei's ability to make people tell the truth that makes us eat!"
"Especially the account books!" Zhao Sili was still worried, "Since the Emperor is involved in this case, he wants to find out how many children they have sold and killed over the years!" He said, shaking his head and sighing, "If we can make those children who were sold and killed,
When our biological parents are reunited, we can be considered as doing good deeds!"
~~
I thought they were gangsters, but they were actually a bunch of thieves.
In fact, even if they are all heinous and violent gangsters, they are nothing compared to the court's law enforcement machine.
After the arrest here, everyone goes back to their homes.
He Guangyi threw everyone into the Zhenfu Division, and then hurried to Cao Guogong's mansion.

"Why are you here during the Chinese New Year?" Li Jinglong was waiting for guests in the side hall. He looked at He Guangyi and asked keenly, "What happened?"
"Yeah!" He Guangyi responded and said something important.
Li Jinglong nodded and said, "I've heard about this too. The traffickers should be caught!"
"There's one more thing!" He Guangyi whispered softly.
Li Jinglong listened silently, and when the other party finished speaking, he smiled profoundly.
"Why are you laughing? Don't I feel confident?" He Guangyi said.
"You, you only talk a lot when you are unsure!" Li Jinglong laughed, "When you are confident, you are like a gourd, afraid of saying the wrong word!"
"Tsk... This is not an important matter. There is no need to hide it from you!" He Guangyi said.
"Don't worry, the emperor doesn't have any objections to you Jin Yiwei!" Li Jinglong leaned back, holding a tea cup and said, "You, you didn't see clearly what's going on here!"
"Elaborate!"
"Human traffickers have been around for a day or two, but Yingtian Mansion has failed to take care of the first, second and third things. This is dereliction of duty, right?" Li Jinglong said in a low voice, "What kind of person is Long Live Lord? He can see thousands of miles, be far-sighted, be wise and powerful, and know the smallest things.
....”
"Where is the root of the reason for not investigating or arresting? It is in the lobby of Yingtian Mansion, and even among the official officials!" Li Jinglong continued, "Let the abbot assist you. The emperor is afraid of this... He is afraid of Yingtian Mansion.
Some of them came to Mr. Zhao to intercede in order to evade responsibility!"
"Yingtian Mansion, after all, is the place where Zhao Hou has been on duty for decades. There are people who cannot be pushed away!"
He Guangyi seemed to understand, "Oh, that's what happened!"
"The Emperor has always been kind to the Zhao family!" Li Jinglong knocked on the table, "I am worried that someone will ask the Marquis to intercede, and I am also worried that dirty water will be poured out on the Zhao family! In that case, the queen and the prince will face it.
It doesn’t look good!”
In fact, there were still a few words in his mind that he had not yet spoken.
After this incident, it seems that the official system is about to change again.
The emperor had long planned to separate the local military and horse departments from the state government's yamen system and establish a public security department directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Punishment.
Now it seems that the first commander of the Beijing Public Security Department is probably this Marquis Chengen!
"Go back and rest early!" Li Jinglong stood up to see off the guests, "It's the third day of the Lunar New Year tomorrow, and there's a big meeting!"
