high official

Chapter 223

Zhu Jiuye came to meet with Zhou Xin today. Discussing the investigation is a cover, and the purpose is to find out.Seeing that Zhou Xin didn't show any signs of gaining power, he relaxed a little and said, "Since your lord is so reasonable, then we have nothing to say."

"That's right." Zhou Xin nodded.

"I have been in Hangzhou for some time. I have seen and heard that Xu Qianhu and the others have gone too far. Xu Yingxian is a newcomer, eager to do meritorious service, and his methods are rough. He should be punished." Zhu Jiudao: "But It is impossible to say that he robbed people's wealth, bullied men and women, and did all kinds of evil. Although Hangzhou is not in Jinai, it is only [-] miles away from the capital. He is handling an imperial case. How many pairs of eyes are staring at him below the emperor? , how dare you act recklessly?"

"Yeah." Zhou Xin nodded and said, "So what Jiuye means is that Xu Qianhu is just a little ruthless in his errands, but he has no selfish intentions, right?"

"That's the reason." Zhu Jiuzhong nodded, and said with deep meaning: "I have already taught him a lesson, and here, as a Jin Yiwei, I will make a statement with the generals. As long as the adults try the case in this direction, First, we will beat Xu Ying back first, and replace him with a kind person as a thousand households; second, people respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot, this is the motto of our Jinyiwei, and we will also protect that big case. Your Excellency is fine."

"..." Zhou Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Since Master Jiu spoke as Jinyiwei, I will also speak to you as the Zhejiang Inspectorate. Excuse me, revoke the Zhejiang Thousand Household Office and never reopen it. How big might it be?"

"This..." Zhu Jiu frowned and said: "Impossible, the Thousand Households Office was established by imperial decree, how can it be abolished?" Are you kidding me, Jin Yiwei only got involved in Zhejiang with great difficulty, how could it be possible to withdraw?
"Then I understand." Zhou Xin nodded and said, "Then let's make a quick decision. Tomorrow, Lord Jiu, Xu Qianhu and others will be invited to the Chasi Yamen, and we will open the court to ask questions. What grievances does Xu Qianhu have? , you can explain it in court, let's try our best to get a result that can be reported to the emperor and can be An Lishu."

"Okay." Although Zhou Xin didn't say this, at least his attitude was very good. Zhu Jiu didn't expect to be able to convince the cold-faced Hantie just once. This time he could have a good tone, and he felt that it was worth it. okay.He also said that the case involved imperial servants, it was not appropriate to have a public trial, and that there should be some taboos when asked in court, so Zhou Xin readily agreed.

Seeing that the goal has been achieved, Zhu Jiu simply got up and said goodbye, and returned to the Qianhu Office.

.

In May, Jiangnan began to feel the summer heat, which made people a little breathless. The Jinyiwei Qianhu House was uncharacteristically noisy and quiet, with no one walking back and forth.On a big willow tree in the courtyard, there were already cicadas chirping and Zhizhizhi's neighing, which was particularly ear-piercing in the quiet courtyard.

Xu Qianhu, Xu Ying, was wearing a fancy flying fish suit, and sat in the signing room in a daze.But most of the buttons of the robe were unbuttoned, partly because of the stuffy heat, and mostly because of the uneasiness and boredom in his heart.He is not a hero of Jing Nan, he has never been on the battlefield, and he has only been in Jinyiwei for ten years. The reason why he climbed so fast is because he is a fellow villager of Jinyiwei Commander Ji Gang, and secondly, he has been flattering for several years.This time he was able to come to Zhejiang because he knew what the Commander needed, so he gritted his teeth and paid a high price of 50 taels of silver a year, and only then did he rob a group of old people, and he jumped from a hundred households to a thousand households, and it was Zhejiang's thousand households. Thousands of households.

50 taels a year, 500 million taels in ten years!If he can't pay the money by then, Commander-in-Chief will definitely abolish him.Carrying heavy debts and coming to Hangzhou, Xu Qianhu began to amass money crazily, and the group of monsters and monsters under him naturally took the opportunity to run amok and bully men and women... Xu Qianhu knew all about this, but he didn't care. I've been by Ji Gang's side for a long time, and I've done too many unreasonable things, so where is this?

After witnessing with his own eyes that Commander-in-Chief opened a gourd in the imperial palace, Jing Nan’s hero Yang Wuhou Ye, he believed that in this world, the Heavenly King Lao Tzu was the first, the Commander-in-Chief was second, and the remaining sons were all quails!
Sure enough, after he whipped a meddling official into serious injury, all the officials in Zhejiang Province became dumb. Some people even prepared pearls and donated money to save their lives, and made him make another fortune.But only Zhou Xin, the procurator, has been trying to make things difficult for him. First, he protects the person they want to arrest, and then secretly collects evidence, entrusting Hu Qin to sue him severely.

Hearing that the emperor was very angry and asked Zhou Xin to try the case, Xu Qianhu was a little scared, but fortunately, Zhu Jiuye was also interrogated, which showed that the emperor was still protecting Jinyiwei, which reassured him.Although he and Zhu Jiu couldn't urinate in the same pot, it was related to Jin Yiwei's decency, and I believe he would be able to handle it clearly.

No, Zhu Jiuye went to negotiate with Zhou Xin. Although the surname Zhou is having a lot of trouble at the moment, I believe that as soon as the fact that the imperial court is secretly investigating him is revealed, he will make up his mind. ... Now that even the sufferer has said that he will not pursue it, who in the world would be so stupid as to make it difficult for Jin Yiwei, and then get his whole family involved?

Of course, he thought it would be a matter of time, and he should be nervous or nervous when it comes to the end. He has never felt so hard every second like this, fidgeting and waiting until now, only to hear the report that Master Jiu is back.

Xu Qianhu jumped up from the chair, buttoned up the buttons, and went out to greet Zhu Jiu. Seeing Zhu Jiu was like seeing his own father, and asked repeatedly: "Jiuye, Jiuye, how is it?"

Seeing that his clothes were disheveled and the buttons were buttoned incorrectly, Zhu Jiu couldn't help but frowned in disgust, and said in a deep voice, "You should prepare yourself for a court hearing tomorrow."

"What did Zhou Jietai say?" Xu Qianhu asked pitifully, "Is there any room for accommodation?"

"If I had known today, why bother?" Zhu Jiu glanced at him and said, "Can this kind of thing be finalized? Go and see tomorrow, just play it by ear. Anyway, he has promised not to open the court, so until the final report, there will always be Room for a slow turn."

It sounded more optimistic, but it was vain. Xu Qianhu felt uneasy at all. During the meal, he discussed a few things with Zhu Jiu about tomorrow's interrogation, and then discussed with Du Baihu again before thinking about it. He went to bed full of apprehension.

He didn't close his eyes for another night, got up at dawn the next day, asked the soldiers to wash up, looked at the haggard face in the mirror, he couldn't help sighing secretly, he really couldn't help it.Looking at the yellow flying fish suit on the hanger again, the flying fish on it stretched its teeth and claws like a dragon and a python, which gave him great courage again, and said with a muffled grunt:

"The waiter puts it on, we can't lose the prestige of Jin Yiwei!"

So he put on the flying fish suit, a finless black gauze hat, and black leather boots, and walked out the door with his head held high. Outside, fifty brocade guards in red flying fish suits had already been waiting in a line led by Du Baihu, all of them with expressions on their faces. Rutie, looking at their thousands of households!
Xu Qianhu glanced slowly over the crowd, turned over and rode on the tall horse led by his own soldiers, and shouted: "Let's go!"

"Here!" All the subordinates responded in unison, and followed Lord Qianhu out of the inner courtyard.In the front yard, Zhu Jiu had been waiting there a long time ago, seeing his bluffing posture, he sneered in his heart and said, "You are fierce and soft inside", and then got on the horse, surrounded by twenty Jinyi guards who also wore red flying fish suits, and met him. They formed a team and left Lu Yuan in a mighty way.

Nearly a hundred guards in brocade clothes were marching on the streets of Hangzhou City, and the common people hurriedly gave way to the side of the road and stopped to watch them. After they passed by, they began to discuss in a low voice:

"Who are you going to catch? Such a big battle?"

"The official is definitely not young..."

"It's the opposite. I heard from my cousin's third brother-in-law who is in the yamen that Zhou Naitai is going to interrogate Jin Yiwei in the yamen today..."

"Really, how does this posture look like being on trial? It's almost the same as asking the teacher for the crime."

"I don't understand, this is negotiating with our gang, no matter what, you have to bring all the people, you can't lose if you lose!" He was still a gangster, telling the truth.

No matter what, the enthusiasm of the common people for watching a good show could not be extinguished, so the crowd began to gather at the Niesi Yamen, but to the disappointment, the gates of the Niesi Yamen were closed tightly, and the people were kept far away from the Daping in front of the Yamen, apparently to close the door interrogation.

Through the fence, the common people looked at the deep courtyard in the yamen, not knowing what was going on inside...

.

Surrounded by Jin Yiwei, Zhu Jiu and Xu Yingxian entered the gate of the department. Zhou Xin personally led the crowd to welcome them out, and entered the lobby hand in hand with Zhu Jiu. .Unexpectedly, the hot faces were put on the cold butts, those followers and soldiers ignored them, they just clustered around the two Qianhus, refusing to leave half a step away.

Zhou Xin had no choice but to wave his hand to order the officials to retreat, leaving Jin Yiwei to do as he pleases.

It's just so funny, when the second hall was promoted, in addition to the third class of yamen servants, there were dozens of brocade guards in flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives on their waists.The purpose of the yamen station is to instill prestige, but under the deterrence of the emperor's pro-army, how can there be any prestige at all?

Zhou Xin and Zhu Jiubai read the imperial decree first, and then sat behind the big case, Zhu Jiu set up a case and sat aside, Xu Qianhu stood in the hall, with a look of indifference and anxiety on his face.

Zhou Xin's eyes slowly swept down the hall, and he saw dozens of Jinyi guards inside and outside the second hall, staring at him. He couldn't help feeling a little bit pained, and patted the gavel wood lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Then let's go to the hall!" !"

"Mighty..." The voices of Zao Li's hall were full of guilt, which made Jin Yiwei even more arrogant.

"By order, investigate the case of Jinyiwei Zhejiang Qianhu's hassle of neglecting human life and plundering people's property." Fortunately, Zhou Xin's face is not angry and majestic. This person has a great reputation. After the voice opened, everyone couldn't help but be in awe.

　Weakly ask for a monthly pass...
