When Qin Dewei was complaining to Xu Miaojing, a voice suddenly came from the cell opposite.
"Young people are so impatient! It's only been a few days and you can't stand it anymore?"
You don't need to read to know that this must be another veteran who has been in jail for several months making fun of a rookie who has only been in jail for a few days.
Mr. Feng stopped writing and stood behind the iron fence with his hands behind his back. He educated Qin Dewei and said: "You have also read Confucius and Mencius. Don't you know that when Heaven consigns a person to this person, he must first suffer from his will?"
It was rare to find someone who had a sense of superiority to Qin Dewei. Master Feng felt that he could not let it go and continued:
"Look at me, Feng En, who has been in prison for several months and has never felt any pain. As the saying goes, the joy of thinking about Yan Zi is the heart of a saint!"
At this time, Jia Yingchun, a doctor from the Ministry of Punishment, walked into the prison from outside.
Such business officials must have something to announce when they come to the prison! The three prisoners looked at Jia Bulang expectantly.
Jia Bulang walked up to Qin Dewei's cell and said, "The instructions have been sent to the Ministry of Punishment! I think you are young and ignorant, so I will let you go home to study and think about your mistakes. Get out now!"
Just like Qin Dewei who won the lottery, he bowed his hand to the north, the Holy One is virtuous!
Throw away those utensils and leave them for future generations! Then Qin Dewei only packed them with clothes and left impatiently.
The jailer opened the cell door, and Qin Dewei and Jia Bulang walked out while talking.
"Wait a minute!" Mr. Feng, holding on to the iron fence, shouted, "There is an accomplice here! Didn't the instructions come together!"
Jia Bulang turned around and said with embarrassment: "The punishment for Feng Ren is to be demoted three levels and moved to the left to a prefecture or county. You will have to wait for the Ministry of Civil Affairs to select officials before you can be released."
According to regulations, the punishment for demoting a prisoner is to leave the city and take up his post immediately after being released from prison. This is what the punishment looks like.
Therefore, until the specific official position is announced, Mr. Feng has nowhere to go and can only continue to wait in prison.
But there are so many official positions in prefectures, prefectures and counties in the world, and there are so many candidates for officials, that it is impossible for the Ministry of Personnel to select and announce each one one by one.
Therefore, the working procedure of the Ministry of Personnel is to comprehensively measure all aspects of the situation every month, conduct a selection, and then make it public.
If Mr. Feng is unlucky and cannot catch up with the selection this month, or if there is no suitable position this month, he will have to wait until next month.
Qin Dewei said sympathetically: "Don't be so impetuous, Mr. Feng. God will give this man a job, and his will must be hardened first. I hope you will think more about Yanzi's happiness and understand the heart of a saint!"
Without saying a word, Mr. Feng turned around and went back to write. A few more pages for Qin Dewei!
After coming out of the prison, Qin Dewei took a few deep breaths of free air, and then said to Xu Miaojing: "Let's go to your house to take a shower and change clothes!"
Xu Miaojing said dissatisfiedly: "Don't go too far!"
Qin Dewei said confidently: "My clothes have been washed by your sister. Where else can I go if I don't go to your house to take a shower?"
Xu Miaojing explained: "There is only one bath tray in my house, which is used by my sister!"
"Then I'd better go!" Qin Dewei said eagerly.
Just as he was about to walk out of the criminal department, Qin Dewei thought of something again, turned around and went back to find Wang Tingxiang, the minister of the criminal department.
This is normal. It is also proper etiquette to thank Mr. Wang for taking care of me before leaving.
Xu Miaojing was waiting outside the door. She didn't know how much Qin Dewei and Wang Tingxiang had to talk. It took a while before she saw Qin Dewei come out again.
When the two were chatting on the road, Qin Dewei asked again: "What exactly is going on when you talk about handling the case? Who is looking for you?"
Xu Miaojing briefly explained the situation: "Eunuch Qin left the palace to handle Zhang Yanling's case, came to Jingwei Martial Arts School, and selected ten outstanding martial arts students, including me."
Qin Dewei couldn't help but look at Little Brother Xu, and said doubtfully: "I don't understand. How are you so good?"
Xu Miaojing: ""
Is this the point?
However, Xu Xiaodi had something to ask for and did not dare to talk back. He changed the subject and said, "I see that Zhang Yanling is already in jail, and I heard that he has been convicted. I wonder what other cases he should handle?"
Qin Dewei gave some advice and said: "The emperor must be dissatisfied with the result and find some excuse to impose a harsher sentence and increase the punishment.
Moreover, the emperor is not satisfied with the factory guards, otherwise he would not let Eunuch Qin go out to do things. Maybe after this matter is over, Eunuch Qin will be in charge of the factory guards."
Qin Dewei, who is familiar with history, certainly knows that Eunuch Qin started from Guan Dongchang and gradually became an unprecedented eunuch like the Chief of Ceremony and the Superintendent of Dongchang.
Xu Miaojing, the alternate Jinyi Guard officer, suddenly felt pressure again. If Eunuch Qin was in charge of the factory guard, wouldn't he be his future boss?
When they arrived at Xu's house, what was disappointing was that Xu Miaoxuan was not at home. She did not know that Qin Dewei would suddenly be released from prison today.
Qin Dewei took his clothes and turned away. Sister Xuan is not here, so what fun is there in taking a bath here?
At the same time, he said to Xu Miaojing: "Wait for me at home, I will come back later!"
Qin Dewei returned to his residence in Wugong Hutong. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the front yard was bustling with people jumping around.
Looking more closely, several of the Feng family servants were holding down the weak and helpless Feng Xingke. Duan Qing, his follower, was holding a sharp knife and was pointing at Feng Xingke.
This scene was somewhere between killing a pig and killing a chicken. Qin Dewei quickly shouted: "Stop!"
Duan Qing turned around and saw Qin Dewei and said happily: "Mr. Qin is out!"
Then he quickly explained: "You said that when the time is right, you will let Brother Feng bleed and write blood! If they can't do it, please ask me for help."
"Let go! No need!" Qin Dewei wiped his sweat. Fortunately, he came back in time, otherwise Feng Xingke would have suffered a bloody disaster in vain.
In the past, there was no way to do that. Now the situation is much better and it won't cause bleeding.
Then he said to Feng Xingke: "The instructions have been issued. Your Majesty will be demoted to the prefecture and county. You can only wait for the election of an official to be released from prison!"
This was the most wonderful news. The Feng family cheered loudly, and immediately someone ran in to tell the old lady the good news.
After Feng Xingke was released, he knelt down and kowtowed to Qin Dewei skillfully to thank him.
This made Qin Dewei feel a little distressed, and he quickly helped him up.
Poor baby! Has kneeling and kowtow become such a natural habit? It’s all the fault of Mr. Feng as a father!
Everyone helped fetch water and boil water, and Qin Dewei didn't bother to bathe or change clothes.
After the bad luck disappeared and he drank a few more sips of tea, Qin Dewei took his entourage out and borrowed two more people from the Feng family for some unknown reason.
When I arrived at Xu's house again, it was already approaching dusk.
Xu Miaoxuan had already returned from outside and said apologetically: "I didn't know you would be released from prison today. You sit down for a while and I will cook some dishes to celebrate."
This time I brought a lot of followers, and it was hard to act like a hooligan in front of everyone. Qin Dewei said reluctantly: "No, I'm here to ask my younger brother to handle the case!"
Xu Miaoxuan looked at the sky and said doubtfully: "Go to handle the case now?"
Qin Dewei said: "The investigation of Zhang Yanling's case is our brother's business. Time waits for us! We must seize the time. What if someone else takes away the credit?"
Hearing this, Xu Miaoxuan stopped stopping her.
Qin Dewei took Xu Miaojing to the entrance of the alley, and then asked: "Where is Ren Xiaoyi's home? Haven't you been there? Lead the way!"
When Xu Miaojing heard the name Ren Xiaoyi, she was a little shy and her knees hurt a little.
