On the first day when Chu Qing became the deputy commander of Qianqiying, he collected nearly 30,000 yuan in deposits without doing anything "proper".
But after returning to Chu Mansion, he still couldn't sleep well.
It was not because he was worried about the refugees, but because he always wondered whether Tao Ruolin would take the money and run away. With nearly 30,000 yuan, if it were him, he might also be thinking about whether to run away with the money.
I have to say that in the eyes of diaosi, everyone is a diaosi.
Not long after he lay down, Fu San knocked on the door.
"Master, the loser from Qianqiying is here. He said that Mr. Chen asked you to go to the Qianqiying office to discuss something."
"I won't even let you sleep!"
Chu Qing dragged his tired body and changed his clothes, then walked out of the room muttering.
Behind Fu San stood a Tanma from the Thousand Cavalry Battalion. He saluted and said, "Master Chu, Commander Chen has something to discuss. I hope you can return to the Yamen office as soon as possible."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes: "Repeat."
Tan Ma repeated in a deep voice: "Master Chu, Commander Chen has something to discuss. I hope you can return to the office as soon as possible."
"Repeat, title, do you understand the title?"
"Understood." Tan Ma suddenly realized: "Mr. Chu, Commander Chen..."
"It's okay, let's go."
Chu Qing roughly understood why Qianqiying was so unpopular with others. His emotional intelligence was so low that it was shockingly low.
After leaving the Chu Mansion with Fu San and Tan Ma, Chu Qing deliberately blocked his waist card.
He very much hoped that a night guard or a Jingwei would come out to investigate, and then he would curse so loudly that it would blind you, I am the deputy commander of the Qianqi Battalion.
But when he walked all the way to the Qianqiying Yamen office, he saw the soldiers on night watch and two teams of guards. As a result, everyone ignored him.
In fact, it depends on his clothes. He came from Tai'anfang. Chu Qing's walking posture is like a crab. Wu Zu and Jingwei are not stupid. If they are not good people, they still dare to walk sideways?
When they arrived at the government office, the lights were brightly lit, and Chen Yan was sitting in the yard roasting a rabbit.
Chu Qing walked over quickly and sat opposite Chen Yan.
If Chen Yan came to see him in the middle of the night, he must have something important to do. Chu Qing was still very clear about this.
"problem occurs?"
Chen Yan smiled apologetically at Chu Qing: "My dear brother, don't blame me for disturbing your dream."
Chu Qing said happily: "It's roasting rabbit in the middle of the night. I thought you were climbing up the wall again."
Chen Yan's face was full of ridicule: "Some brothers have climbed up the wall. Tonight, everyone is talking about my good brother."
"Talk about me?"
"Yes, many ministers say you are interesting."
Chu Qing was confused: "What's so interesting about me?"
"The ministers all said that this deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion is really interesting. He can obviously steal money directly, but he insists on repairing everyone's house."
Chu Qing: "..."
Chen Yan laughed heartily.
Chu Qing rolled his eyes: "You want me to do this?"
"Of course not, it's because of Wu Daming."
"Who is Wu Daming?"
"The flower picker."
"Oh, you just ate two vegetative people in one meal, you bastard, what's wrong?"
Chen Yan waved his hand and asked the scouts behind him to disperse to the Moon Gate, and then he spoke: "Originally, I wanted to send this thief to the Ministry of Punishment, but when he returned to the city, the Ministry of Punishment had already sent him on a mission, so he wanted to take him into custody first.
In the dungeon of the government office, he will be sent to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow, but when the flower picker came to the Qianqiying government office, he was so frightened that he lost his mind and revealed something related to Xiao County."
As Chen Yan explained the causes and consequences, Chu Qing finally understood the whole story.
Flower-picking thieves like Wu Daming who committed crimes one after another were a huge headache for the local government and even the Jingzhao Mansion. However, it was only the Ministry of Punishment that intervened, and it had nothing to do with Qianqiying.
You must know that Qianqiying is not an ordinary government office. In the eyes of outsiders, the people arrested by Qianqiying are at least fourth- and fifth-level officials, and most of them are people who were executed by the Nine Clan for treason.
As soon as Wu Daming arrived at the Qianqiying Yamen Office, he was frightened.
In future generations, this would be like a battery thief being caught directly by the CIA.
The Aruba torture had already shone a light on Wu Daming's physical defenses. Once he arrived at Qianqi Camp, which was rumored to be like the underworld, his psychological defenses also completely collapsed. He wanted nothing more than a quick death. After being thrown into the dungeon
, his mouth never stopped, revealing all the bad things he had done.
Tan Ma from the Qianqi Camp was also very idle. Seeing that there was nothing going on at night, he just listened to the story and jotted it down, thinking about the sentence he would give the Ministry of Punishment during the day.
But who knew that Wu Daming accidentally revealed something that aroused everyone's interest. It turned out that this bastard never ran away after committing the crime. He was not far from the capital and spent most of his time in Xiao County. To be precise, he was in Xiao County.
In a mountain forest on the north side of Xiao County.
Not living like a savage in the mountains and forests, but having a party with many people in the mountains every day with wine and meat.
The mountains and forests may not be big, but they are by no means small. It is no problem to hide thousands or eight hundred people. In fact, there are indeed thousands of people hiding in the mountains and forests. There are three hidden villages, and the number of people may vary.
, the identities of these people are unknown. In addition to the criminals wanted by the court, there are also some refugees, family members of the criminals, strong people from Xiao County, and men who speak with accents south of Weijiang.
Not to mention wanted criminals, refugees and criminals' families, let's talk about the largest number of men south of the Weijiang River. These people are probably from the King of Wu, because the King of Wu's fiefdom is south of the Weijiang River.
According to Wu Daming, it was Li Mu, the county magistrate of Xiao County, who took them in. They were not allowed to go down the mountain. They regularly gave them wine, meat, food, and even women. They also practiced training on weekdays. In addition, they were also allowed to dress up as bandits.
Robbery and robbery on the official road.
Wu Daming was also a pervert. He shouldn't have gone down the mountain in the first place, but he relapsed into his old habit and wanted to "pick flowers." As for the women Li Mu sent up the mountain regularly, it wasn't that they weren't pretty enough, but that he didn't like to take the initiative, so
So I sneaked down the mountain.
In the past, there were people who sneaked down the mountain, but they would be caught soon, killed, and hung outside the village as a warning to others.
Wu Daming failed to pick the flowers and was hunted down. Then he had an idea and mingled with the refugees, thinking of running north again after a while, until he met Chu Qing and directly destroyed his tools for committing crimes.
After Chu Qing heard this, he took a deep breath and said, "It's true, this is definitely going to be countered."
Chen Yan tore off a roasted rabbit leg, handed it to Chu Qing, and said quietly: "Yes, if you weren't prepared to commit treason and injustice, how could you support so many vicious people in the mountains and forests."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's gather all our troops and attack them. Let both sides attack together. The capital side will raid the Li family, and the Xiao County side will raid the mountains and forests."
"No." Chen Yan shook his head: "There are at least a thousand people, and they are in the mountains and forests. Xiao County is the only way to go. There is an official road on the north side of the mountains and forests. If you act rashly, you will definitely scare the grass and scare the snake."
Chen Yan turned around and called a scout to fetch the map.
Chu Qing looked intently and nodded slightly, as if he didn't understand at all but pretended to understand.
"To go to Xiao County, at least half a battalion of troops and horses must be sent. If the Li family gets the news, as long as the flying pigeons are released, Li Muke will quickly inform those people to flee north. Even if they go, they will probably get nothing, and only the flower-picking thief Wu Daming will
I copied the testimony from the Li family, fearing that it might be inappropriate."
Chu Qing frowned and asked, "Have you told His Majesty?"
Chen Yan shook his head.
He also learned about this not long after he came back from the palace. He was very embarrassed and a little undecided. He didn't know what he thought. The first one to notify was Chu Qing.
As for directly confiscating the Li family, according to Chen Yan's understanding of Huang Laosi, he would probably do it. But once he does it, he must get irrefutable evidence to stop everyone from talking. The Li family is not a fool. If they don't see the irrefutable evidence, they will definitely do it.
He gritted his teeth tightly and refused to let go. If the worst result occurred, that is, the Li family was confiscated and all the Li family members were arrested, but no irrefutable evidence was obtained, then King Wu would definitely use this message to spread rumors and cause trouble.
Therefore, Chen Yan was very hesitant, wanting to find a more secure method, and at the same time find out who else besides the Li family was having trouble with the King of Wu.
"I generally understand." Chu Qing took two bites of rabbit meat and said, "There is no solid evidence to raid the Li family in Beijing, so there is no way to do it, right?"
"yes."
"Send soldiers to Xiao County to catch Li Mu and those rebels in the mountains and forests, because you're afraid of arousing the enemy, right?"
"yes."
Chu Qing finished eating the rabbit meat in three mouthfuls and stood up: "886."
After saying that, Chu Qing turned around and left.
While walking, Chu Qing was still cursing.
You asked me to teach arithmetic, but the result was a tax audit, and the tax was found. The result was that the Li family was involved, and the Li family was involved. Then you asked me to study the King of Wu. Just after I studied the King of Wu, I was involved in the rebellion.
It's okay, I just left Novice Village, okay?
…………
I asked for leave today, maybe only one chapter. I had a toothache all night, so I went to the hospital. The pain was so severe that I almost didn’t sleep all night.
