Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 234 Not good, Ah Gui wants to rebel!

The post station is a special unit. No matter where the post station is, it is actually not under the control of the local area, but under the control of the Ministry of War.

This arrangement is also to prevent the imperial court from letting the post station be under the jurisdiction of the local government. If the local government deliberately rebels, blocks the post road, or tampers with it, the central government will become deaf and blind.

To put it vividly, the large and small post stations across the country are like the blood vessels of the empire. Wherever there is stasis, it will seriously threaten the life of the empire.

Such a shocking case occurred in such an important place, which certainly shocked the official circles in Sichuan.

The first to arrive at the scene of the crime were the guards from Huayang County, and then the relevant personnel from the Yamen of the Procuratorate, who was in charge of Sichuan's criminal investigation.

The Si Yamen of the Sichuan Procuratorate is the old unit of the current Governor of Sichuan, Chairman Li.

Neither the new procuratorate nor the successor chief envoy has yet arrived, so Song Bing, the deputy envoy of the procuratorate, is in charge of the work of the procuratorate's office.

This person was from Juren, from Qianxi, Guizhou, and served as an inspector of the Lujia branch half a year ago.Excellent work ability, corrected more than a dozen wrongful and unjust cases during the tour of the Second Mansion, solved several major and important cases, and achieved excellent performance.

After being promoted to Futai, the first thing President Li did was to transfer Song Bing to the agency, and spent some money to help Song Bing find the post of deputy inspector of the fourth grade. Provincial criminal name work.

With Song Bing's assistance, a group of former president Li's cronies were also transferred from the procuratorate one after another, or served in the governor's yamen, or worked in other prefectures and counties.

Song Bing learned to ride a horse because he often went to various places to investigate cases. When his subordinates informed Wuhou Station that a murder had occurred, he immediately rode to the scene of the crime.

After arriving there, Wang Guotai, the prefect of Huayang County, was found paralyzed there.

Although the post station is not under the management of Wang Zhi County, but such a big incident, Wang Zhi County can't escape the responsibility?

Needless to say, the worst case would be decapitation, and the lighter case would be dismissed from office.

Ignoring the magistrate Wang, who was so frightened that he lost his mind, Song Bing led his subordinates directly into the ruined post station for on-site inspection.

After stepping into the scene of the crime, Deputy Minister Rao was still stunned by the tragic scene in front of him after seeing the murder scene.

Seeing the scorched corpses being carried out from the ruins by the soldiers, despite the cold winter months, deputy envoy Song couldn't stop the sweat from his brow.

Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, except for riots by the people, there has never been such a shocking case!
The murderer can no longer be described as audacious, it is simply lawless.

Because the victims were burned, it was difficult to identify them at the first time. The work at the inspection site still extracted the identity of one of the victims from a piece of burnt personal jade pendant and several carriages that were burned more than half. identity.

This person is the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the deputy governor of Manchuria Zhenghongqi Fu Chang'an!

When this "guess" came out, all the officials present were stunned and fell silent.

The magistrate of Huayang, who was paralyzed there, even fainted on the spot.

Deputy Song's heart became more and more cold, but he was still calm. On the one hand, he ordered the soldiers of the Chasi Yamen to replace the Huayang County guards to seal off the scene, and no one was allowed to enter the crime scene without his order.

On the other hand, let people go back to the Yamen to mobilize more people to come to the investigation, and every corpse must be inspected in place, and there must be no omissions.

At the same time, officials from Huayang County were asked to investigate every household within a radius of ten miles, asking the people if they had seen any suspicious persons yesterday, so as to provide clues for the case to be solved.

When the orders were issued one after another, carriages rushed over one after another.

Dozens of officials, big and small, from the Chengdu government, the chief envoy, and the Eight Banners stationed in Chengdu are in charge of the yamen.

The core governor of Sichuan Province also rushed over on horseback. Since the cannon had just been fired, the chairman was relatively comfortable physically and mentally.

"See Lord Futai!"

Before the old leader dismounted, Song Bing hurried over to salute.

"Exemption."

Looking at the still smoking ruins of the inn, Chairman Li frowned deeply, and quickly asked who the deceased were, how many victims were there, and whether there were any clues left by the murderer during the on-site inspection with professional knowledge.

Deputy envoy Song reported one by one that a total of 56 bodies of the victims were found, and none of them were alive.

"56 people?"

President Li showed a look of shock. When he learned that Fu Changan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was among the dead, the president's expression changed again.

Pressing his heart in shock, he asked Song Bing: "Yuanzhi, what do you think?"

"Yuanzhi" is Song Bing's word, he hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the gangsters are so agile that they don't leave anyone alive. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the actions of ordinary thieves."

The chairman's eyes flashed: "What do you mean?"

"Like in the military,"

Song Bing boldly spoke out his thoughts, and he was able to quickly get 56 people to retreat without leaving any survivors, except for those who were soldiers.

But which part of the people did it, he dared not say, let alone guess.

Under the leadership of Song Bing, the governor walked to the charred corpse of Minister Fu, and after pondering for a long time, the governor turned to Song Bing and said, "You stay here, and I will go to the governor Xingyuan!"

Not daring to delay, the governor immediately got on his horse and went straight to the mouth of the Guo Mingzong River, where the governor was stationed. He rode fast all the way, but the governor's old body was broken.

By the time we arrived at the governor's temporary residence, it was already dark.

Fu Lehun, governor of Sichuan, who was discussing with relevant officials about the construction project of the Dacang at the mouth of Guo Mingzong River, heard that Governor Li Shijie asked for an audience, and couldn't help but wonder why the master of Futai came to him so late.

Fu Lehun didn't like Li Shijie very much, and his confidant Sichuan Governor Qian Yun was Li Shijie's search for Suo Na to release Beijing. Although Li Shijie was ordered to handle the case, it was difficult for Fu Lehun to get close to him, let alone win him over.

Because the restoration of the governor of Sichuan has greatly divided the military power of the governor Fu Lehun.

After Li Shijie came over, Fuller smiled all over his face: "What kind of wind brought you here, Sichuan parent officer?"

However, before the governor could finish his polite words, Li Shijie, the governor of Sichuan, interrupted him, and told about the murder of Fu Chang'an, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, in a panic.

"What? Fu Chang'an was attacked and killed at Wuhou Station!"

Fuller was stunned by the news brought by Li Shijie, and all the officials present stood up in shock, unbelievable.

"After learning about the incident, the lower official rushed to the scene of the crime immediately, and was preliminarily inspected by the procuratorate."

The governor was about to report the specific situation of the crime scene to the governor in detail, but the governor suddenly slapped the table and said angrily, "Quickly, send me an order to send troops to surround Daping!"

"grown ups?!"

The governor was shocked by the governor's military order, and he was too stunned to speak, and so were the other officials.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up, Ah Gui is going to rebel, it's over if it's too late!"

The governor was so anxious that smoke would come out of his throat.
