Su Jin bowed to the ground and said: "Thank you very much, Miss, for your understanding of righteousness. Your action helped me eradicate all the cancer in Yangzhou and saved thousands of people. Now that it's over, I will go to the court to ask for your credit. I'll take my leave for the time being."
, I have a lot of things to do tonight, so please calm down and come back to express my thanks. ”
Mihua seemed to hear it, but she didn't seem to hear it.
Su Jin couldn't delay any longer, so he cupped his hands and turned around and walked out.
"Special Envoy Su, wait!" Mihua said tremblingly.
Su Jin turned around and said, "Is there anything else wrong, girl?"
Mi Hua stood up slowly, came to Su Jin and said a blessing: "I have an unkind request, please forgive me."
Su Jin smiled and said: "Say it, if I can do it, I will definitely agree."
"I would like to ask you one thing. Mr. Feng fell into your hands and he will be punished according to the imperial law. I also ask the envoy not to make him suffer. In addition, although the slave family failed him for the sake of righteousness, he still has a right to him after all.
The slave family is kind, so the slave family wants to see him one last time, I wonder if you can allow it."
Su Jin thought for a while and said: "It's easy to meet, but Feng Jingyao is the culprit. Whether he will suffer the consequences depends on his attitude. Moreover, the interrogation responsibility is not in my hands. I'm afraid I won't be able to help."
."
Mihua said softly: "Thank you so much, sir. He will bear the consequences of his own sins. If I can see him once, it will be a worthwhile visit for him to get to know me. Thank you so much, sir."
Su Jin waved his hand and pushed the door open. At the door, Wang Chao and Mahan stood in the dark and wandered back and forth. Su Jin quickly ordered: "Go back immediately. You two will go to the Ma Army Camp and the Xiangbing Army Camp immediately, and order Zhao Dutou and Pan
Jiang led the troops to gather at the government office square."
The three of them hurried through the courtyard of the Red Cinema, filled with laughter and joy, and rushed out of the gate into the darkness.
…
It was the second watch of the night, black clouds covered the new moon, and the whole city was dark and cold.
In front of the government square, there was the sound of people neighing and horses neighing, and the 300 soldiers and 150 forbidden troops mobilized by Pan Jiang gathered one after another.
Su Jin stood on the steps in front of the yamen, with a straight back and a serious expression. Pan Jiang and Zhao Dutou ran up the steps and raised their hands and said: "Sir, I have been ordered to come here with orders from low-ranking officials."
Su Jin nodded and said: "Commander Pan, have the city gate affairs been arranged?"
Pan Jiang cupped his hands and said: "Everything is in order. They are all my capable men. There are three people in each gate to ensure that not even a bird can fly out."
Su Jin said: "Okay! Pan Jiang obeys the order!"
Pan Jiang stepped forward and shouted: "I have a humble job."
Su Jin reached out and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Pan Jiang. Pan Jiang took a look at it under the light and was stunned. He saw that there were more than 20 names listed densely on it. They were all very familiar.
, it is the brains and brains of the Yangzhou government office.
"According to the list, we arrested all the people and brought them to justice. One of them ran away, but you are the only one asking." Su Jin's voice was as cold as the cold wind whirling on the branches.
Pan Jiang straightened his body and shouted: "Don't worry, sir. I've lost one of my menial positions. I'll cut off my head to make up for it."
Su Jin nodded and said: "Go quickly."
Pan Jiang turned around, waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, follow me!" He led three hundred soldiers holding torches and went straight to the gathering place of Dongcheng officials.
Su Jin watched Pan Jiang's soldiers and horses disappear at the corner of the street, turned around and shouted: "Where is Zhao Dutou?"
Zhao Dutou said hurriedly: "I am humble and obey orders."
"Immediately divide the troops into two teams, go to the north and south entrances three miles away from the north entrance, block off the alley, and don't let anyone escape."
"I obey your orders! But sir, we only have one hundred and fifty people, and we are divided into two groups. How can we get people?"
Su Jin shouted: "Do I want you to take someone? Block the entrance of the alley, use your bow and arrow, use your spear, don't let them break out. That is Feng Jingyao's lair, there are at least a few hundred people inside, rush in
Are you looking for death?"
Zhao Du scratched his head and said, "But why are we surrounding them? They can't stop them even if they stand out."
Su Jindao: "After half an hour of obstruction, we will be done, because by that time, Song Magistrate's five hundred soldiers will have returned to the city, and they will all be captured and brought to justice."
Only then did Zhao Dutou realize that he was delaying time and hurriedly said loudly: "I obey my orders."
Su Jin turned to Zhang Long and said: "The cavalry team is divided into two teams. Zhao Du leads one team to block the south entrance. You lead another team to block the north entrance. Remember not to act rashly. Set up fortifications at the entrance of the alley. If anyone runs out, give a warning. If the warning fails, use bows and arrows.
Snipe and kill without mercy."
Zhang Long nodded in agreement and followed Zhao Du on his horse, leading the cavalry into the darkness like a gust of wind.
Hundreds of people came and left even faster. Just a moment ago, people were neighing and horses were neighing in the Fuya Square, but in an instant it was completely empty.
Ma Han looked at Su Jin and said, "Sir, what are we doing? Are we waiting here?"
Su Jin said: "Bring the horse over here. Let's go see our old friend. Don't let him run away in the chaos."
Ma Han wondered: "Who are you meeting?"
Su Jindao: "Long Zhen, this guy is living a life like a rich man in a secluded house. It's such a big deal tonight. If he gets wind of it and runs away, it will be a big problem."
Mahan pointed to his nose and said, "Just the two of us?"
Su Jin nodded and said: "Don't worry, the only people guarding him are four or five officers from the Criminal Division. They are a bunch of losers. You can beat ten of them by yourself."
The two men took the horses, got on them, and rode away.
On both sides of the prosperous East Street at the east end of the mansion, there are rows of mansions. Some of the mansions are more luxurious than the mansion. Even if they are not of that level, there are still stone lions squatting in front of the doors of some mansions, but they were carved during carving.
It's a little off-the-wall, it looks like a lion, but it has a cow's nose.
Most of the people living in these mansions are officials from Yangzhou, big and small. In name, the mansions were bought, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that from the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture down, they are all petty officials of the fifth, sixth and seventh grades, and they only have jurisdiction over
There were only one to two departments. Although the salaries of officials in the Song Dynasty were generous, they were not enough to allow these fifth- and sixth-grade officials to live in such high-rise courtyards.
All these houses were half-sold and half-gifted by Feng Jingyao. Feng Jingyao understood this truth and kept dogs to help him guard the door. Although he held the dog's rope in his hand, he had to feed the dog well, otherwise it would become red.
A mad dog with eyes that is so hungry that it can become cruel and turn its back on others. If it cannot bite others, it bites them instead, which is too much to bear.
So after Feng Jingyao bought the land on East Main Street, he built many luxury houses, half sold and half given away to feed the dogs.
The area near the official's residence is inevitably heavily guarded. Several adults in important positions, pretending to be public servants for their own benefit, mobilized their own officers to patrol at night. After the second watch in the evening, the officers were dispatched in twos and threes, like lonely ghosts.
I'm wandering around the streets. Anyway, I don't have much luck on the job. I help Shangguan watch the patrols. Firstly, I can make some connections. Secondly, the reward of 100 yuan for coming over one night is also a lot of money. After all, it's a tiring job.
When I work as an errand, I only get two big bucks a month.
The police officers usually have a good face, and people in public affairs cannot lose their status even if they are shabby. If they are not as good as the mud-legged people on the street, wouldn't it make people laugh?
Patrolling on winter nights is hard, but after all, the darkness covers the ugly and no one can see it. As long as it is bright in front of others during the day, it is considered to be a well-earned hardship.
The policemen, who were desperate to save face and suffer the consequences, were stomping around in the street and enjoying the heat. They had just turned around and hid in a temporary hut. Before their buttocks were warmed up by the stove, they heard the noisy footsteps on the corner of the street.
The sound of footsteps made the ground seem to tremble.
The leading servant Zhu Ba quickly stood up and called everyone to go out and take a look. He cursed angrily: "Are these damn night ghosts going to the funeral in the middle of the night? There is such a big noise. If the adults in the house are alarmed, we will come tomorrow.
I'm hungry again. Let's go and have a look."
The officers stood up and cursed, and swarmed out of the hut. After just one glance, they almost peed their pants in fear. The torches all over the street illuminated everyone's frightened nose hairs clearly. There were about hundreds of soldiers in full armor, carrying bags of money.
Holding knives and torches, they were dividing into more than a dozen teams to block the doors of the adults' houses.
A guard was horrified and said: "Brother Zhu, these are Xiang soldiers. I know the leader. It's Xiang soldiers who command Pan Jiang. Why did they lead their troops to East Street? What should I do?"
While they were talking, the soldiers had quickly blocked both ends of the street, and some people were already banging on the red lacquered doors of the officials.
"What should we do? Brother Zhu? How about we go ask about the situation?" Another officer asked with a trembling voice.
"Asking about your sister's breasts, I want to ask you, are you like two idiots? Should we go and find her dead? Do you want to go and beat her up for a hundred cents?"
"This... what if the adults blame me tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow? Can't you see the posture? There is still tomorrow? The soldiers are here to fetch people. No wonder you will be a small errand all your life." Zhu Ba scolded.
The guard secretly cursed: Aren't you a fucking little guard? After a moment's hesitation, everyone was no longer in sight. Zhu Ba had already retracted into the house and blew out the candle with several puffs. The guard quickly retracted into the house and opened the door.
It was tightly closed, and a dozen patrolling guards huddled in the corner and listened to the constant shouting and cursing outside, but turned a deaf ear to it, as if it had nothing to do with them.
