One hundred and ninety-ninth chapter catch the typical
Zhao Gui nodded quickly, repeated his words several times, and then led the people away.
After Zhao Gui led the people away, Li Ziyu ordered the door to be closed tightly, guarded by soldiers, and gathered all the people in the courtyard. During the visit and investigation a few days ago, the police station had already roughly figured out the general situation in the courtyard.
, Li Ziyu was naturally targeted, and assigned everyone to guard them one by one according to the distinction between Lao Ju, Dou Fenshui, handyman craftsman, mother's maid, and Pipa boy.
He detained Mrs. Yao, Mu Yun and Huang Xiang one by one for questioning. There was no need to ask more questions about He Xiaoyue. It was a matter of certainty. The focus was on investigating whether there was any "private purchase of Pipa Tsai".
The three of them were questioned separately. Naturally, they did not dare to hide anything. Without much effort, they confessed that Sister Han Qiao had indeed bought a girl from Renya a few days ago. She was a teenager and a native of Guangzhou. Her appearance was roughly the same as that of Ming Nu.
Oh no, Sister Han Qiao didn’t really want it at first, but then she suddenly bought it again for some reason.
"...Master Yu, you are Mingjian," Huang Xiang said, bending down with a servile look on his face, "It's not like I don't know the rules of the Song Dynasty. I went back to them several times, and then for some reason I asked Renya to send the child here."
"What's this child's name?" Li Ziyu asked casually, pretending to be casual.
"She seems to be called Ming Nu," Huang Xiangdao said. He only saw her when Ren Ya brought her in."
Li Ziyu couldn't restrain his excitement. It seemed that Master Jiu's news was accurate! He immediately asked, "Where is this girl now?"
"Young ones, I really don't know," Huang Xiang said, "After the Pipa boys were bought, they were all under the control of Miss Muyun. They were not allowed to interfere with the bean flour water. And they were usually in the backyard. If they didn't give me a note, they wouldn't come in front...
…”
Asked Mu Yun again, Mu Yun explained that the girl was indeed given to her for training. She had been in the courtyard for the past few days and she suddenly disappeared yesterday.
"...My aunt asked Mrs. Yao to take her away. I don't know where she is going. I don't dare to lie." Mu Yun was very knowledgeable. As soon as he came in, he knelt on the ground and replied, looking gentle and docile.
I saw a look of pity.
Li Ziyu asked the older girls in Pipazai again, and they all said that they had indeed seen Ming Nu. She just disappeared yesterday. They did not dare to ask Mu Yun.
Li Ziyu generally understood the question, and then brought Mrs. Yao in for questioning.
As expected, Mrs. Yao was evasive at first and refused to admit that there was a bright girl in the courtyard. Li Ziyu repeatedly questioned her, but she would never admit it. Li Ziyu had experience with this, and knew that this kind of "time-tested" shrew in the market can be nice and talkative.
His words were mostly useless, so he handcuffed her and hung her on a beam, leaving only her toes touching the ground.
Unexpectedly, when Sister-in-law Yao was in charge of Laoju, because her "business" was not good, it was common for her to be tortured by the madam. She would be slapped on a board, kneel on a chain, hold up a lamp, and drink sesame oil... When it came to her ability to endure crime and torture, she could be regarded as the best in Lefang Street.
The first one. This method was useless to her. After hanging on her for nearly two hours, she saw Lian Nishang coming over. Mrs. Yao was sweating profusely and twitching all over, but she still insisted that she didn't know about Ming Nu.
Li Ziyu was angry and anxious, but he had neither the right nor the ability to torture him.
"This woman must know some secret, otherwise she wouldn't be so stubborn about a girl." Lian Nishang immediately made an inference after hearing his report.
"Team leader Gao Jian..."
"Haha," Lian Nishang sneered a few times, "I can't say that I have high opinions, but Fangchunyuan is so bold and continues to commit crimes against the wind. It seems that the previous measures of beating the bustard thirty times and fined him five hundred taels of silver are still too light.
, I have to double the amount this time.”
"The team leader means..." Li Ziyu was secretly happy in her heart. She wanted to find Ming Nu, and at the same time, she could give Zeng Juan's ex-brother-in-law a good look. The bigger the case, the better.
"Work on site! Dispose of it on the spot." Lian Nishang said, "Just a reminder to all the villas here."
Because she was exposed by Zhuo Yifan, she was quarantined for a period of time after the case was over. Although she was later released and resumed work, the comment "lack of vigilance" was left in the file. Although Lian Nishang could not see her own file.
However, she was later "promoted" to Guangzhou, which seemed to fully prove that this was a left migration. Because she had a fire in her heart.
However, when she arrived in Guangzhou, she became the deputy section chief of the household registration department, which was not directly related to various cases. Later, she was appointed as the deputy leader of the rectification of the weathering industry, which gave her a chance to show off her skills.
She originally wanted to catch a "model" and punish her, but she was suffering from the fact that there was no one to target her. Fangchunyuan not only bought women from the countryside privately, but also forced them into prostitution. She was a suitable target.
"Yes, we must investigate and deal with it strictly!" Li Ziyu quickly agreed, "No matter what criminal activities are hidden in the Spring Visiting Courtyard, we must dig them out!"
Lian Nishang didn't know the little Jiujiu in his heart. He felt that although he came from an old military officer's family, he worked very hard and his attitude towards the old society was even more determined, so he couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards him.
The executive deputy leader of the "Cleaning Up Customs Industry Working Group" spoke, which set the tone. Lian Nishang could allocate much more resources. She went out with a few orders and mobilized several national militiamen and police.
, not only surrounded Fuchunyuan tightly, but also sent sentries at the intersection of Lefang Street. Although there was no traffic ban, the old man who came to Yeyou couldn't be happy when he saw this scene. He had already come to have a drink.
The tea-players also hurriedly left. All the monasteries couldn't help but curse their mothers secretly, this was another trouble!
Mu Min wanted this effect, not only severe punishment, but also "continuous sitting". She gave clear instructions at the work meeting: because the brothel industry itself is full of gray areas - strictly speaking, even in Ming Dynasty, many behaviors in brothels are
Illegal. But over the years, brothels have become so rampant that they have even become "rules." To make the entire industry aware of the seriousness of the "law", not only must violators be severely punished, but also the cost of violating the law must be magnified by the method of continuous imprisonment.
Since the model was caught, the scene unfolded. The flower hall, which was originally full of people singing and dancing, was turned into a temporary place for handling cases. All decorations were removed and seats and boards were put on. Everyone in the courtyard, including Sister Han Qiao's confidants, all
They were arrested and imprisoned in a courtyard, and everyone else went back to their respective places. They were not allowed to come in or out or move around the courtyard.
The confidants of Sister Han Qiao who were detained were naturally interrogated by officers from the interrogation section. The other people were also interviewed one by one by the police and naturalized female cadres sent temporarily, and everyone was required to "report and expose" "back to back". The key point is to
The old officials reported on the old bustard and all kinds of illegal things in the courtyard.
Li Ziyu knew that looking at this situation was going to bring Fangchunyuan to death, and she was secretly happy in her heart. Although Mrs. Yao could withstand the torture in the brothel, she could not withstand the vicious hands of several retained yamen in the interrogation department - she peed soon after
With sweat and tears streaming down my face, I cried and said that I confessed my original intention.
"Tell me carefully, where did Akira go?"
"I really don't know where Ming Nu has gone." Mrs. Yao trembled all over and knelt on the ground. "Yesterday, my aunt gave me a piece of paper with birth date and zodiac sign. She asked me to choose a zodiac sign among the Pipa boys in our courtyard.
If they are combined, the ones with similar horoscopes will come out and be brought to..."
At this point, she seemed to be frightened, and suddenly shut up. The two interrogators were about to step forward, but Lian Nishang waved her hands to stop them. She said: "Sister Yao, although you are Sister Han Qiao's confidant, you are also an old lady."
Looking at your background, haven't you suffered enough from being a slave to the madam for the first half of your life? Do you still need to thank the madam for all the whip marks and scars all over your body?"
Mrs. Yao lowered her head and gasped, looking at several thieves and yamen servants staring at her. She knew that these people were all veterans of the former Ming dynasty yamen, and they were all ruthless and evil. With just one look from the thieves in front of her, she could call them out.
He was worse off than dead, and had to live and die. However, if he did it, he would be tempted to eat this bowl of rice. Just then, Lian Nishang became impatient. With a look, several retained government servants immediately pointed their fingers fiercely.
She was thrown in front of her, ready to come up. Yao's sister-in-law couldn't hold it anymore, she repeatedly said that she was willing to fight, and confessed that Mingnu was taken to Yue Wan's yard.
"Yue Wan?!"
"Yes, she...she...is Mr. Liang's comb-over girl." Mrs. Yao whispered.
"Is she in the courtyard?"
Huang Xiang, who was standing aside for the jury, was so frightened that his legs and feet were weak, hurriedly came up and reported: "Since Miss Yue Wan was groomed by Mr. Liang, she has been living in a separate courtyard. She said she is in our courtyard, but in fact she is in a separate courtyard.
, there is another entrance and exit. The people who serve are also sent by the Liang family. I don’t know whether she is there or not."
Lian Nishang frowned and asked, "Which Mr. Liang?"
"This is Liang Cunhou, Mr. Liang."
When he said that, he emphasized the words "Master Liang". Because Liang Cunhou's family was not only the first-class gentry in the city, but also had a close relationship with the Senate. He said that Cihuitang, which Ziji opened in Guangzhou, was the
With the strong support of the Liang family, Dongzhu Guo later did business in Guangzhou and was very close to the Liang family. It was not until the Australians came to Guangzhou and burned Wuyang Post that this relationship gradually became cold. But there are
During this period of time, the Liang family was still well regarded by the Australians and was regarded as an important "united front target".
With the status of Lian Nishang, Li Ziyu was beyond the reach of the Liang family, both in the past and now. As soon as Huang Xiang mentioned the three words "Mr. Liang", Li Ziyu understood what the other party meant. He had to follow the old rules.
Even if the rule is over, no one will mention Yue Wan again.
"Since she is still a girl in your courtyard, she will naturally be questioned." Lian Nishang said, "Send someone to bring her here immediately!"
Li Ziyu knew the joints. He took a step forward and whispered:
"Team leader, Mr. Liang was a guest of Director Guo in the past, and several current leaders have also met him. You must be careful..." (To be continued.)
