Chapter 43: The Twelve Families of the South China Sea
"The first thing is the Nanhai County matter. The numerous evil deeds of the Nanhai Twelve Families were clearly investigated by the special team formed by the Judicial Investigation Bureau and the Nanhai Police Department. The files transported back to the Ministry of the Interior filled a whole
Ship. The Metropolitan Procuratorate’s Council will discuss and intervene in the judicial process in advance.”
When Cai Bian said this, he naturally stopped, picked up the teacup and drank.
Zongze continued to say from the side: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate designated a censor from the Central Procuratorate and transferred fifteen experienced procuratorates to form a special team to work with the Ministry of Interior to take over the transportation back to Beijing.
The files are as vast as the sea, and the crimes are so heinous that they are too numerous to write down! Just by instructing bandits and water thieves everywhere to rob and kill officials and people, it is enough to make the twelve families of the South China Sea irreversible."
"The opinion of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is to first verify the evidence, complete the chain of evidence, and make this case a solid case. Now it has been sorted out to 7788, which is enough to issue 12 arrest tickets for the whole family. But when to do it, we still have to wait.
Cabinet agreed.”
After Zongze finished speaking, Cai Bian put down his tea cup and continued.
"The Twelve Nanhai Families are deeply rooted in Nanhai County, and their influence has even penetrated into Hunan, Jiangxi, Yulin and other counties. There are also many people in Kaifeng City who have accepted their benefits and are cheering for them. So the result of my discussion with Chang Sikou and Zhang Shaozai
Yes, just stay still. When you move, you must be like a lion fighting a rabbit, go all out, and strive to hit the target with one blow, without affecting the situation in the South China Sea."
"The current problem is that Nanhai Military Preparation Commander Huang Chengyou was bribed by twelve families. The evidence is conclusive. Nanhai County soldiers, police departments, and various prefecture and county government departments have been greatly infiltrated by them. In order to avoid leaks, so
Twelve families have fled overseas, causing endless harm, and the Shangshu Province and the Privy Council must work together."
"First, a regiment of the Nanning Army stationed in Duanzhou in the name of protecting grain roads. A squadron of the Baize Navy stationed in Fuxu Port, Dongguan in the name of rotating supplies. Two infantry regiments of Youtun Guards
They moved to Yingzhou and Huizhou respectively. The Xiangjiang Agricultural Reclamation Division, Ganjiang Agricultural Reclamation Division, and Yuanjiang Agricultural Reclamation Division each organized an advance detachment to advance to Guiyang, Qujiang and Rongshui respectively in the name of suppressing bandits."
"The net has been opened, and we are just waiting for an order." Cai Bian paused, looked at several senior officials in Menxia Province, and continued, "In Shangshu Province, Xu Yuchun, the right minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, will personally lead the team.
, went south to support the Chief Envoy of the South China Sea, Ye Xun - he is the commander-in-chief of this operation. What preparations does Menxia Province have?"
Chang Anmin and Zongze looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.
The Menxia Province is in charge of two departments, the Ducha Yuan and the Dali Temple.
Dali Temple listens to orders rather than announcements, and has great autonomy. And they do not need to be involved in the case. They can only wait until the case is settled, and when it comes time for the trial, a Dali Shaoqing will be sent there with several Dali ministers.
That’s it.
If we jointly organize the event, it is time for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take action. However, Zongze had just returned from Huaidong to organize the event, and he had a backlog of important matters on his hands, and he could not escape at all.
Sending Su Mai, the censor of the Right Ducha Yuan? Chang Anmin and Zongze were not at ease. But it would be impossible if the Du Chao Yuan did not send someone.
Chang Anmin nodded, and Zongze said: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate sent the right deputy imperial censor Li Guang and Li Taiding to lead a team to Nanhai to assist in the joint effort."
Li Guang was only thirty-four years old, so Zongze and Chang Anmin were a little worried about him instigating such a big incident on his own.
"Okay, that's settled."
Cai Bian made the final decision.
Everyone has mixed feelings. The eucalyptus of the twelve families in the South China Sea is actually closely related to the cohesion and centrifugal force mentioned by Yu Wenxu just now.
The Twelve Families of Nanhai have been dominant in Nanhai County for hundreds of years. They boast that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. They listen to the words of officials and the court if they are pleasant to their ears, and forget about those who are not.
They are even more hostile to the Donghai and Liangjiang Chamber of Commerce, which represent the rising emerging forces - they are here to steal business.
Nanhai County not only failed to implement the new policy well, but also suffered a serious loss of taxes that the imperial court should collect - the seven customs offices in the Nanhai region, including the Guangdong Customs, were riddled with holes and lost most of the customs duties.
Now the officials and the court want to severely crack down on the Twelve Nanhai Families as representatives of local evil forces, and at the same time issue warnings to local forces in counties, prefectures and counties.
From now on, never do such eccentric activities as ignoring the overall situation, obeying the imperial orders and disobeying them. Otherwise, the Twelve Families of Nanhai will be your fate.
There are still a dozen local forces that have been entrenched in the local area for hundreds of thousands of miles, and the officials and the court will destroy them. This kind of courage and means can be carefully weighed by the local families in various counties and prefectures.
If you feel that you are farther away from the center than the Twelve Nanhai Families and that your influence is more deeply rooted in the local area, you can definitely jump out and try to see if the official blade is sharp.
People kill chickens to scare monkeys, but officials always like to kill tigers to scare monkeys.
While everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, Cai Bian continued to speak.
"There are reports of Huidao sect activities in the mountainous areas of western Zhejiang in Donghai County, the Dabie Mountains in Huaixi, the mountainous areas at the junction of Jiangxi and Minhai counties, and the mountainous areas at the junction of the three counties of Qinchuan and Bashu in Hubei. Among them, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, the Food Sect, and the Zoroastrian Sect are the most active.
Attention must be drawn. The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Interior drafted an action plan, codenamed Spring Breeze and Rain."
"The plan is mainly to have one article and one weapon. Wen means to strengthen propaganda and education work to make the people deeply aware of the true face of Huidaomen seeking money and killing people; Wu means to focus on the local security police and county soldiers to deal with the heads of Huidaomen who have done many evil things and their
The cronies will be given a thunderous blow."
Having said this, Cai Bian turned to Chang Anmin, Zongze and Su Mai, "We hope that we can cooperate closely with Menxia Province to deal with the case quickly and severely, from prosecution to judgment."
Fan Chunchuan stroked his beard and interjected: "The main reason is that the imperial court is too lenient to the people. Wang Jinggong's Baojia law is now almost in disuse. Although the foreign troubles in Western Xia and Northern Liao have been eliminated, the Baojia teaching parade for the soldiers can be abolished, and the people will no longer be hurt by labor.
.But we can improve on the basis of the Baojia Law, fix household registration, eliminate theft and bring peace to the people..."
"Now people in various states and counties only need to go to the county civil affairs bureau to apply for a certificate of identity, and they can travel everywhere. Only if they stay temporarily for more than ten days, they need to report to the local police. This is so lenient and loose, so there are treacherous people in the Taoist sect.
With various identities, they travel everywhere, spreading evil and harming the place."
Cai Bian replied without thinking: "Fan Jigong, any national policy measure has advantages and disadvantages, and it cannot be perfect. What we have to consider is the pros and cons of the current implementation. The advantages slightly outweigh the disadvantages, so implement them with caution; the disadvantages slightly outweigh the advantages.
To improve it; if the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages, it can be implemented; if the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, it must be strictly prohibited.”
"Relaxing people's travel is necessary to promote commerce, expand colonization, and develop the economy. When the farming season is slack, the common people go out of the village to find their own way and work to make money; when the farming season is busy, they will naturally return to their hometowns to farm for the sake of the Hukou family. The people will be prosperous.
, not only to ensure that the people have enough food and clothing, but also to allow them to afford the things they should buy, so that they can live a better life than before."
"The official family and the former Dazai Zhang Gong and Xu Gong have repeatedly weighed and restrained the people in their residences and strictly prohibited them from walking around. The place will naturally be much more trouble-free. However, it is easier for the officials, but the people have suffered. Therefore, the official family and Zhang Gong, Xu Gong,
The Duke decided that it would be better for the officials to work more than for the common people to suffer less. Therefore, Baojia was abolished and he acted independently."
Cai Bianyue said that Yue Kang was passionate, "I understand that the officials and Zhang Gong, Xu Gong have worked hard and are willing to continue this strategy. The Ministry of Finance and the local government agencies are willing to worry more and do more, and don't let the place become a stagnant water..."
Good guy, Cai Bian's righteous words actually left Fan Chunchen speechless.
His father, Duke Fan Wenzheng, once said, "It's better to cry all the way when the whole family is crying!" With such righteous words, how can Fan Chunchun refute Cai Bian's words of "I would rather the officials be tired than the people suffer"?
But Fan Chunchuan knew that Cai Bian was definitely not an upright person, and his passionate expression was just acting for his colleagues and officials.
Unfortunately, Fan Chunchuan cannot refute this point, because he has no evidence, not even the moral high ground that old-school officials are best at.
However, although Fan Chunchun's thoughts still belong to the conservative old school, he has a calm and persevering personality - he can keep his composure when faced with difficulties, and he can adapt to the needs of the times - he can adapt to changes, and he is not a pedantic and rigid person.
So Fan smiled innocently and said nothing.
Cai Bian accepted the offer and said, "Now let's discuss the matter of the Chen Zuo envoy of Goryeo."
Cao Duo was not nervous at all now. After waiting for so long, he had already figured out what he should have figured out. He was quietly waiting for Cai Bian to speak.
