The rise of the prince

Chapter 438
In this world, no one cares about you, wives and sons, old parents, friends, confidante, etc., if you offend those who are desperate, they will not tell you the rules, and they will not say that one person does things and one person is responsible.

The hard ones are afraid of the violent ones, and the horizontal ones are afraid of the deadly ones. This is the reason.To put it bluntly, I'm barefoot, you wear shoes, if you dare to touch me, you will die together, if you want me to move you, I will give you benefits, this is the logic of why a hooligan is a hooligan.

"What kind of relatives does this person have in his family?" Li Xingzhou asked. This person was definitely involved, and he concluded almost instantly based on his intuition.

Zhou Yong shook his head, "Not sure, I haven't heard much about it."

"The two of you go down and help me check and see this person's family background." Li Xingzhou ordered: "But be careful, don't force it."

The two accepted the order happily: "Don't worry, my lord, we will definitely check it out."

On the other side of the river bank, the rooster entered the building, and his sight was blocked for a while, so he couldn't see it.

As soon as the rooster came in, the lively crowd got out of the way. He swaggered towards the counter and didn't give way. The passers-by got out of the way one after another, not daring to block him. One of them was too anxious and even fell down, but no one dared to laugh.

He didn't say a word, and went straight into the back hall, and the voice slowly sounded again behind him.

As the light dimmed, the rooster lowered its head and walked out the back door. It was an alley, uninhabited, and it took less than a hundred steps to enter the depths of the alley. Four people were already waiting there, and there was a weak middle-aged man under him.

When the middle-aged man saw the rooster, he cried out and begged for mercy: "Master Chicken, please forgive me, please forgive me!"

The rooster stepped up, "Let him go."

A few people let go, and the middle-aged man stood up, and was suddenly kicked by the rooster in the stomach, with blue veins on his head, and knelt down while clutching his stomach, unable to stand up again, the rooster was merciless, punching and kicking, the middle-aged man He curled up on the ground and held his head, not daring to make a sound, and was too painful to scream.

After a while, the head was beaten to the point of blood, and the corner of the mouth spit blood, and the rooster stopped and cursed: "Fuck, labor and capital have given you two months, and you still can't pay the money. Didn't I tell you last time? If you don't pay for a month, chop off your finger, you think labor and management are just kidding with you!"

As he spoke, he spat at the middle-aged man on the ground, "Cut off his fingers for labor."

Several subordinates laughed and were about to start, the middle-aged man finally yelled, but his mouth was covered by one of them, and he held down the two, while the other two grabbed his left index finger, and the cock turned around. Go, screams came from behind.

This is not the first time he has done this kind of thing, but this time he is upset. It is not because of this incident, but because the number of inexplicable people under him has become less and less recently, some have left, and some have been directly taken to prison Here, I went to find no one at my brother-in-law's house, and there was no news for a long time.

The rooster also looked puzzled, how could these idiots be caught one by one by the yamen servants?It's only been a dozen days, and a few people are caught every day. The people in the yamen can't do it with the demon method. Can you see through what people have done at a glance?
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more I think about it, the more I feel chills down my spine.

He punched the brick wall next to his hand viciously, thinking that he should go to his brother-in-law's house to see if he was there. He didn't know what happened to Jiangzhou recently, and he didn't understand what was wrong. He always felt that everything was not going well. Everything is to be careful.

What was wrong, he couldn't tell, but he was a little flustered, he didn't pay attention to those yamen servants when he saw them before, what would they dare to do to him?Now when you see officials and servants, you have to subconsciously avoid them, so as not to bump into them.

The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, he yelled and hit the wall with his head on the side of the road, scaring a few passers-by to run away in a hurry.

It was dusk, and the villa was full of people, and it was very lively. It happened that the female workers returned to the mansion, plus the new army, there were more than 500 people eating in the mansion, so it was naturally lively.

In the backyard, there were two new army sergeants standing guard in front of the door. Compared with the front yard, it was much quieter. He Qianan listened quietly, dragging his chin, not talking much, while Wang Ke and Xie Linjiang reported to Li Xingzhou what had happened in the past few days. arrange.

"According to the prince's order, all those who have been tried and those who have not been tried will be transferred to the camp of the Xiang Army outside the city to be imprisoned, and in that place, many people are unexpectedly honest, and they will confess as soon as they are asked." Wang Ke said happily.

Li Xingzhou smiled. It was psychological pressure. A person's psychological defense always had a limit. Once the pressure was too high, it would collapse.

"Where is Wang Zhifu?" Li Xingzhou asked.

"The magistrate also acted according to the plan, and arranged for the city gate officials to ensure that no one would escape." Xie Linjiang said, he was in charge of communicating with the Ningjiang government yamen.

Li Xingzhou nodded, and asked He Qian to bring him the gift list for bribes and gifts, and then said, "I checked according to the gift list, and it is not only a gift for me, but also within the authority, so that it is easy to get people out of the prison." There are several.

The punishment room official Zheng Zhilong, the official room official Gou Lihuan, the prison chief Zhang Gui, and the deputy prison chief Zhong Bi, these four people must be watched carefully, even if they are discovered, they must not be let go. In all likelihood, the people behind the riverside building are among these few. "

Xie Linjiang asked with some puzzlement: "My lord, my subordinates still don't understand. Even if he is capable of catching people from prison, he is just a small fish and shrimp. Why bother to catch such a person?"

Before Li Xingzhou returned to him, the seasoned Wang Ke first said: "Mr. Xie, please think about it. The people behind the riverside building have been scooping up people from the prison for so many years. Has no one seen or noticed? Nuo Da's mansion Ya, hundreds of people go to work every day, but none of them notice it?"

"It's not that I don't know, it's that if I don't talk about it, it's a conspiracy! There must be someone behind him to protect him. Why is it easy to think about it? Some officials, rich people, and family members commit crimes and break the law. If they go to the yamen prison, they all have to rely on the river. Get the people behind the building out for them." Wang Ke said sternly.

Xie Linjiang was stunned. As a newcomer to the officialdom, he obviously didn't expect things to be so involved.

"So, as long as you catch the people behind the riverside building, you can follow the vines and find out all the pests in Jiangzhou!" Speaking of this, Wang Ke, an old man with a slightly bowed waist, had sparks in his eyes and sparkled.

Xie Linjiang also sighed in admiration: "My lord is brilliant, I really can't think of this reason. It turns out that the lord accepted bribes two months ago when he took office just for today! What a prophet."

Li Xingzhou smiled, he is not so godly, and he can't be called a prophet.

This kind of thing is mainly because he has experienced and seen a lot in his previous life, so he can grasp the key points.That's just paving the way. The most important thing is to imitate New York and use environmental cues to restore order at the bottom of Jiangzhou, and then expose those who are accustomed to breaking the law and discipline. Only with a stable environment can the real pests be cured.

"It's almost possible to collect the net, but you still have to be careful that some people will die and the net will be broken, so I still have some arrangements." Li Xingzhou walked to the table while talking, took a pen to write a letter, and handed it to Xie Linjiang: "Tomorrow morning, you will hand this letter in person. Give it to Shen Lin, don't let outsiders see it."

Xie Linjiang nodded, now he has long admired the prince: "Don't worry, the prince, I will be able to handle it well!"
