Eunuch Pan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain why.
After receiving the news that Qin Dewei had escaped from the city, he temporarily lost control of Qin Dewei's whereabouts. He was only a garrison eunuch in Nanjing, not a garrison eunuch in Nanzhili.
So the new clerk surnamed Yan came up with another idea, suggesting that he find people who were close to Qin Dewei. As long as he caught these people, he didn't believe that Qin Dewei could just sit back and watch.
Then the people who sent people out to find Wang Lianqing reported that Wang Lianqing was no longer at his residence, saying that he had gone to follow Qin Dewei.
She also left four semi-intelligible sentences: "Although she is a prostitute, she still has a sense of integrity. She left her career and family behind just to express gratitude to you!"
They sent people out to look for Mr. Qin from Jiangning County, but his whole family was also missing. It seemed that they had disappeared without a trace.
They sent people to Yuanfeng Hao Bank, but the door was also closed, and an announcement was issued saying it would be closed for five days. There were still officers, soldiers and government officials stationed here from nowhere.
The bookstore surnamed Yan also encouraged Eunuch Pan to storm the bank directly with force, but Eunuch Pan thought this was a stupid suggestion.
Yuanfeng Bank issued so many stocks, and I don’t know how many people in Nanjing bought them. Going to the bank recklessly is like poking a hornet’s nest. Isn’t it exciting enough?
By this time, Eunuch Pan finally discovered what was wrong.
So Qin Dewei's arrangements seem to be short-term? He doesn't seem to be thinking about the long term and just wants to hang out for a few days? Does Qin Dewei think that everything will be fine within a few days?
So Pan Gong, the garrison eunuch, got angry again. How could Qin Dewei be so virtuous? Why did he think that things could be settled in a few days?
Then there was nothing more. There was a thunder at Sanshan Gate, and the whole city of Nanjing was shaken.
The day after Tian Jinyi was dismissed from his job, Commander Xu continued to be stationed at Sanshanmen. In the morning, he received a tip from the riverside.
There really was a transport team under the guise of guarding the eunuch's mansion. It entered the outer suburbs from the Jiangdong Gate of the outer city and came along the road towards Sanshan Gate.
Hearing this, Commander Xu was completely relieved. Qin Dewei's guess was correct! A lifetime of wealth begins today!
This is a team of 25 people, which is not a small number. But it doesn't matter. Commander Xu has made special arrangements in the past few days to increase the number of officers and soldiers guarding the city gate to 200.
Moreover, Commander Xu also knew a little bit about the art of war. He put this team alone into the urn, and then divided the 200 officers and soldiers into two teams.
Commander Xu also knew psychology. He only told his officers and soldiers that there were ordinary people pretending to be guards and eunuch servants. He did not say that these people might be criminal thieves.
The bandits were still very fierce, and they were forced to fight to the death. Many officers and soldiers were injured. Commander Xu was afraid that the officers and soldiers would be afraid of fighting, so he went to the front line to hold down the battle, and suffered some hardships.
The process was very hard, but the result was good: all twenty-five people were captured.
Tian Jinyi, who was watching, couldn't help being shocked: "Xu Yunqi, are you as crazy as Qin Dewei? These people are indeed the servants guarding the eunuch's mansion, how did they become fake?"
Tian Jinyi had been serving in the inner guard hall before, and he also knew the servant leaders such as Fan Shiyong and Zhu Chao who guarded the eunuch's mansion.
But now, these people have been arrested by my brother-in-law. What if this is not crazy!
Qin Dewei just used his pen to curse and write jokes, but his brother-in-law dared to do it directly. He was even crazier than Qin Dewei!
Commander Xu didn't say anything, but actually found a weapon from the cargo. Tian Jinyi suddenly felt something was wrong.
Then Commander Xu asked a few preliminary questions, and it turned out that none of these people could accurately tell the quantity, weight and type of the goods.
This further shows that they do not know the specific quantity of the goods and do not have customs clearance tickets, which indirectly proves that this is probably stolen goods.
If the news gets out, the owners of the robbed cargo will naturally come to claim it, and then everyone will understand.
They were still the same people, but there were too many things that were wrong. Thinking back to the fighting power just now, it didn't look like a servant. Tian Jinyi suddenly fell silent.
Maybe it was really a good thing that he was dismissed from his post by the garrison eunuch?
I originally thought that Qin Dewei and Brother-in-law Xu were crazy, and they dared to be disrespectful to the guarding eunuch. I didn't expect them to be even crazier. This was more than disrespectful.
Commander Xu was in a good mood and patted Tian Jinyi on the shoulder, "Brother Tian, as the saying goes, everyone who meets you gets something. Do you want to share some of the credit?"
Tian Jinyi nodded numbly and answered with one word sincerely: "I want to."
Commander Xu said with a smile: "There is such a thing, I recently met a young lady, her parents died, it is really pitiful.
I want to do a good deed, take this little lady home and give her a way to live. But I am afraid that your sister will misunderstand something, so how about helping me to persuade your sister?"
Tian Jinyi could only say "hehe".
There were too many thieves and the temporary detention room could not accommodate them at all, so they had to free up the duty room used by the officers and soldiers to sleep at night, lock the thieves in, and then guard them on three floors inside and outside.
The Sanshan Gatekeeper only has the same position as a military commander guarding the city gate, and has no judicial power. Therefore, according to the procedures, Commander Xu can only report the arrests, and then wait for which yamen is responsible to come and arrest the arrests.
The matter was so big that Commander Xu thought it would be useless to report it to the Wei Li or the Governor's Mansion, so he directly reported it to the Ministry of War, and then the whole city's officialdom was shaken.
The next day, the doorkeeper's room of Xiaoxiaoshanshan was suddenly crowded with people, and the threshold was about to be breached.
There was no place to sit, everyone was standing, and there was no space to drink tea or anything else.
Commander Xu, who is nearly fifty years old, has never been so popular in his life.
On the left hand side is the censor Caojiang; on the right hand side is the minister of the Ministry of Punishment of Nanjing; the second on the left is the Prime Minister of Yingtianfu; the second on the right is the Prime Minister of Dali Temple in Nanjing.
The magistrate of Shangyuan County also came, but he couldn't stand in the middle of the room, so he could only stand on the edge of the threshold. There was also a military attache outside the threshold, a military officer under the command of Governor Yingtian, who was rushing all night from the Jurong County Governor's station.
Came here.
The purpose of these people coming here, to put it simply and concisely, is to rob people. They all want to take twenty-five criminal thieves back to their own Yamen for trial.
It is such a huge impact case, and the facts of the case are so simple and clear that it is not troublesome at all. As long as there is judicial power in hand, who would not want to take advantage of it!
Become famous in the first trial, right before your eyes! In this life, there is no other chance to interrogate a big shot like the Nanjing Guard Eunuch without risk!
The Nanjing garrison eunuch, also known as "Two Thousand Miles Close Minister", is the first "foreign vassal" in the eunuch system, and his status is equal to that of the ceremonial eunuch.
Of course, the competition is a bit fierce. If you want to remove the prisoners, you really need the cooperation of Commander Xu.
The right guard was left behind to direct the affairs. Xu Yunqi, the gatekeeper of Sanshan, glanced around the house and outside, and thought to himself, today I know what power is!
Just yesterday, these people definitely didn't take the leader of the army guarding the city gate seriously.
It's a pity, it's a pity. As soon as today is over, Commander Xu reluctantly scans the crowd again. Such flowers don't bloom very often.
Huh? Commander Xu suddenly discovered how could a humble middle-aged government servant sneak into the midst of so many well-dressed big shots?
Which yamen is so ignorant? And this yamen officer looks a bit familiar?
