Chapter 611 Kidnap Case

In fact, the 36 gates have already started to rest in rotation during the New Year’s Eve, with a total of eight days of holidays, and each shift has four days off. As the supervisor, he is naturally not subject to this restriction.

But he has to be restricted by the court. If the emperor doesn't say rest, which courtier would dare to rest?
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no saying that New Year’s Eve was celebrated, and the annual leave started when people participated in the annual court meeting on the first day of the new year.

(Actually, the Tang Dynasty’s annual grand dynasty will be the winter solstice instead of the first day of the new year, that is to say, the winter solstice is the new year, and the first day of the new year is just a special day and its status is not as good as that of the Lantern Festival. The winter solstice celebration was changed to Lunar New Year's Day.)
That is to say, we still have to go to court today.

Today is the New Year's Eve. According to the fact that there is a small court meeting every day and a China-North Korea meeting every fifteen days, today's China-North Korea meeting is still held. All high-ranking officials in Beijing and China can come to participate.

For this kidnapper case, Yue Shan asked for leave, and waited for Wei Chun at the six gates.In addition, he also called back the two chief arresters who had already taken a break.

"Marshal, is there a serious case for calling us here in such a hurry?" Bai Lifu asked curiously.

From the smell of alcohol all over his body, it can be seen that he should have gone out to socialize last night.But Yue Shan didn't say anything to him, he was supposed to rest today, and going out to socialize last night was a normal private behavior.

"Just wait." Yue Shan glanced at him indifferently, and then said: "Call all the people on duty."

Now even a fool can see that the commander-in-chief from the family is in a bad mood, and no one dares to ask more questions for fear of being angered.

The four No. 50 people on the field did not make a sound, and the division in the hall gradually solidified.

Yue Shan didn't speak, just sat on his chair with no expression on his face, scanning one person after another condescendingly.

Everyone under his gaze felt uncomfortable as if being stabbed by needles, but they didn't dare to move, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

But not long after, a guard broke in and rescued them: "Marshal Du, there is a man outside the door who claims to be Wei Chun, and says he is here at your order."

"He really came to look for me, let him come in." Yue Shan then withdrew his gaze and said lightly.

Everyone on the field immediately guessed that today's incident probably has something to do with this person named Wei Chun, but they just don't know what made the commander-in-chief so angry.

Could it be that someone from Six Doors is doing something that is corrupt and violates the law and neglects human life?It can't be my subordinate, right?Many people feel uneasy.

Let's say that Wei Chun stayed up all night after returning home last night, and has been sorting out the information he collected, and by the way, he simulated how he would behave at the sixth door today.

His wife was also very happy when she heard that he had met a nobleman. She took out his best clothes and got up before dawn to cook.

In fact, he wanted to come to the six doors and wait for people in the middle of the night, but unfortunately he was just a commoner and it was inconvenient for him to travel.

Although there is no curfew in Chang'an City during the Chinese New Year, but if you are an ordinary citizen and wander around the streets without sleeping in the middle of the night, Marquis Wu, who is watching the night, doesn't mind treating you to a meal.

He could only show up when it was getting light, and in order to catch up with the time, he hired a donkey as a mount.

Hurry up and hurry up, the sun has jumped out of the horizontal line and hangs in the east when he reaches the six doors, to be honest, he is quite nervous.

Especially when he walked into the hall with six doors, and the four No. 50 men looked at him with unison, his legs went limp.

Aren't these people all waiting for me?No, no, no, no.

Of course not, how could I let so many people wait for me as I am just a small person.They should happen to be discussing something, I just happened to happen.

He kept comforting himself in this way, and finally mustered up a little courage to come to the center of the hall tremblingly, and bowed to Yue Shan: "Wei Chun pays his respects to Qing Shuihou, the student is late, please forgive me."

Yue Shan has been staring at Wei Chun since he entered the door, and he is quite satisfied with his performance.The yamen has its own aura of Wia, and people who come here are naturally weak by three points.

And then being stared at by dozens of guards, he was quite courageous if he didn't scare the urine on the spot.It is really good that I can barely control my fear and walk to the lobby to meet the ceremony.

"You came at the right time, neither too early nor too late. These are the elites of our six sects. I called them here today to hear your story."

Even though everyone guessed this possibility, when Yue Shan really said this answer, everyone in Six Doors was still very surprised.

What on earth does this man know, and why is everyone called in to hear his story?
Wei Chun was also taken aback, and broke out in a cold sweat instantly. Are these people really waiting for me?This, this, this...

"Why, are you scared?" Yue Shan asked at this time.

"No..." Wei Chun just wanted to deny it, but immediately thought that even a person with eyes like himself could see that he was nervous, and he denied something, so he changed his words: "I am really sorry for waiting here, everyone. "

"They should be the ones who are afraid. If they can't give me a satisfactory reason after hearing your story, I'm afraid some people won't be able to see the sunset today." Yue Shan said murderously.

The hall fell silent instantly, everyone's heart trembled, and some people even broke out in cold sweat.At this moment, many people recalled all the bad things they have done in their life, to see if this person named Wei Chun was involved.

Wei Chun himself was shocked, what does Qing Shuihou mean by this?Could it be that someone is involved in the kidnapping case?

Thinking of this, the tragic death of the Shangdang County head-captor family immediately came to mind, hatred welled up in my heart, all fears and the like were left behind, and I glanced at the group of police officers with hatred, and then told my story in detail I said it again.

After hearing the story, most people breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a matter of abducting children, and I was not involved in it. It has nothing to do with me.

But there are still a small number of people who think more long-term, and their hearts thump, especially the four chief arresters, who can't wait to stuff their heads into the cracks in the floor tiles under their feet.

At this moment, Yue Shan said coldly: "Yam servants, unscrupulous people, and those who are seeking robbery background come out."

Although everyone didn't know what happened, they still stood up, a full two-thirds.

After they stood up, Yue Shan continued to ask: "Tell me, have you heard of such things before?"

Now even the most stupid people know that the final score is coming. Some people are panicked, while others feel aggrieved.

This matter does not come to us, what can a small policeman do.But no one dared to speak out about the idea.Anyone can see that the commander-in-chief is angry, if he dares to stand up and contradict him, he will end badly.

After waiting for a long time, no one came forward to answer, Yue Shan actually didn't expect them to stand up, he just used this method to make things clear.So he started roll call: "Guan Lijun?"

"This subordinate is guilty, and I ask the commander-in-chief to give this subordinate a chance to make meritorious deeds." Guan Lijun admitted his mistake very simply.

Yue Shan ignored him and continued to roll the roll: "Bai Lifu?"

With a 'plop', Bai Lifu knelt on the ground and said, "This subordinate knows about this, but even if it happens again, this subordinate still dare not bother and ask."

"Oh, you don't even dare to intervene in the head arrester of Wannian County? Is the mastermind behind these people really so powerful?" Yue Shan asked with a moved face.

Others had similar expressions. Kneeling in the Tang Dynasty was a big ceremony, and usually when receiving imperial edicts and seeing the emperor, they just bowed and it was over.Now Bai Lifu actually knelt down directly, and said bluntly that he didn't dare to control or ask.

One must know that he is a member of Li Shentong, and he dare not ask about this matter with the support of the clan and dignitaries, so how powerful should the people behind these people be.

"It's not how powerful the people behind them are, but the relationship behind these people is too complicated to understand." Bai Lifu explained:
"Just think about it, Commander-in-Chief, where are the children stolen by these people and who are they sold to? There are too many and complicated people involved, and there is no way to investigate further. If you can't find the kidnapped Children, there is no way to condemn these people."

"Even if these children are found, how can we be sure that these children were abducted by them and not bought from other places?"

At this time, Guan Lijun also interjected: "Where there are people, there are kidnappers. They are not linked together, but each has its own territory. In private, they will even fight because of floods and cross borders, and they will eat gangsters for money. But They are also interconnected and interdependent.”

"Abducted women and children cannot be sold to local people, so that they can be found out after an investigation. After they abduct people, they will be transported to other areas and sold to local kidnappers, who will sell the stolen goods."

"Similarly, the kidnapped people from other places will also be brought here and sold to them."

"And those who can afford people are basically the families of the rich and powerful in the local area, or the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion. Therefore, these kidnappers know people from various yamen gates. Whether it is selling stolen goods, or forging and selling themselves to the children they abducted Chido is very convenient.”

"If you want to dig out these people, you have to be ruthless from the people above, otherwise there is nothing you can do by relying on the bad local government servants."

Wu Shen, Qiu Shu and the others quickly answered, "Yes, yes. As the health scholar said, these kidnappers can sell people like livestock, and they are extremely vicious. If you push them into a hurry, they can do anything Come out."

"It's okay to catch a few to fill up the number when something happens, but it's hard to really do it."

"To deal with this kind of people, you have to take a ruthless blow to kill them and don't give them a chance to fight back. Otherwise, your subordinates will not dare to attack them. If you beat a snake, you will not die, but you will hurt yourself. The policeman in Wei Shusheng's hometown is the best example. .”

"Unless someone with sufficient power is in charge, it will be very difficult to track down these people. There are old and young under the subordinates, so I dare not fight."

It's already this time, let's put aside any competition and the like for now, let's settle this matter together first, otherwise everyone will have a hard time.

Everyone is talking about these abducting organizations as horrible as they want. Those who don't know think that the world is ruled by them.

Wei Chun was bluffed. He was in a cold sweat from fright, and his heart was a little chilled. Can't he avenge himself?

Yue Shan would naturally not be bluffed.He knew what was going on, so he deliberately exaggerated the facts, otherwise, wouldn't it appear that these arresters were too incompetent.

These kidnappers are all desperadoes, and if they are really pushed, they can do anything.But it is pure nonsense to really expect people like them to fight against the violent institutions of the court.

But the police officers were right in saying that these kidnappers have complicated interpersonal relationships, and trying to clean them up involves too much involvement, and it cannot be solved by one head catcher or even one yamen gate.

This matter must be done through multi-departmental contact, and it must be presided over by someone who can hold the field.

Otherwise, if you check and check, a senior official of two thousand shi will come out, and then you will find a servant of the sixth department, how can you investigate this case?
"Cough cough." Yue Shan coughed dryly, and everyone stopped immediately, before he said: "You said that to investigate this matter, we must be ruthless. It is best for the whole country to jointly handle the case. It is best to have a Someone who can hold the place can host it, right?"

"Yes." Everyone exchanged glances, and finally Guan Lijun stood up and replied.

"Then do you think I can handle the situation?" Yue Shan asked with a sneer.

"Ah? You...you...can, if you can't, then no one in Datang can stop you." Guan Lijun said hastily.

"Then do you think the functions of the six doors can launch a nationwide sweep?" Yue Shan asked again.

"This... this..." Everyone hesitated to answer.

What is the purpose of setting up the six gates in the imperial court?Isn't it just to investigate such cross-regional cases?Now this kidnapping case is tailor-made for Six Doors.

But if they are really asked to investigate such a case, they are not happy.Difficult, it is too difficult.The involvement is too broad and dangerous.

But the commander-in-chief's words are all here, and it's hard for them to refuse.What's more, Yue Shan said at the beginning that if he is not satisfied, someone will not be able to see today's sunset...

"Why, do you think you can't handle this case? Then don't force yourself, I'll handle it with another group of people." Yue Shan said lightly.

"No, it can be done. The subordinates feel that Six Doors' start-up needs a big case to raise our reputation, and this case is just right." Bai Lifu shuddered and said hastily.

"That's right, that's right, this case should be investigated by my six doors." Others also said one after another.

"Oh, it can be done. I was thinking that if you can't do it, I will borrow some people from the Shenwu Army. Since you can do it, then forget it." Yue Shan said with some disappointment.

Then he looked at those subordinates who were full of negative emotions such as unwillingness and frustration, and sighed in his heart, it really is not that easy to manage people.

Although I forced them to accept this case, how can I investigate carefully, whether it will be obedient and obedient... Judging from their current attitude, it will be hell if they can handle the case well.

Or red dates and sticks.

So he said: "Six gates are just beginning, and many things have not yet been decided. For example, our rank, I, the commander-in-chief, still wears the hat of Dali Temple Shaoqing, and you don't even have a hat."

"I originally wanted to ask the sage to apply. The general head arrester is set at the fifth rank, a thousand households at the sixth rank, a hundred households at the seventh or eighth rank, and the general banner officer at the ninth rank...but this will require hundreds or even thousands of order officials. If you If you can't show the usefulness of matching, I'm afraid the saint will not agree."

"Even if the saint agrees, the ministers will not agree."

Speaking of this, Yue Shan looked at the crowd with red eyes, and asked jokingly: "Do you think I should use reasons that I don't have to convince the sage and the prime ministers?"
