Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 229 A Lesson to County Magistrate Tang

So Dai Zhou agreed to Wang Ping'an's request and handed over all relevant personnel to him.Even the confession was handed over to him, and he came to be an unofficial one.In this way, even if the Dou family came to the door, they could push the matter away completely.

"Thank you sir, I need your help with something, I hope you will inform the Dou family of this matter, and ask the Dou family whether there is such a thing, and tell them that in the end, regardless of your master's objection, you will send all the prisoners to the special forces Preparatory camp." Wang Pingan said.

"General Feihu, what do you mean? Are you planning to fight the Dou family?" Dai Zhou sighed.

Wang Pingan shook his head and said: "No, the general just wants to let the Dou family know that the general and the Qinghai gang have joined forces to destroy the Suzaku gang. From now on, the site of Suzaku Street will be managed by me, Wang Pingan and the Qinghai gang. There is nothing wrong with the Dou family, sir. Get them involved."

Now Dai Zhou was even more puzzled. Didn't this mean that the pack of wolves was driven away and another pack of tigers came?
Not only Dai Zhou was speechless, but even Li Ke was puzzled. What is the situation? Could it be that you want to use the special forces and the Qinghai Gang to control Suzaku Street and make a fortune.

"Ping'an, you can't do this, or your reputation will be bad in the future, and you are breaking the law knowingly, and the crime will be aggravated. You must not make mistakes." Li Ke kindly reminded him, as a way to save Wang Ping'an. a good impression.He knew that Li Er doted on him very much now.

"Thank you for His Highness King Wu's concern. May I ask if His Highness is interested in taking part in it. Although the general will control Zhuque Avenue at the end, the East Market and West Market are still in the hands of others." After speaking, Wang Pingan gave Li Ke a hand Wink.

"This..." Li Ke received Wang Ping's wink, as if telling him that there is another mystery to this matter, whether you want to participate.

Now Li Ke's mentality is like a bet. If he wins the bet, he may beat Li Chengqian and Li Tai. If he loses, he will just be scolded by his father, and he will be the same as now except for being banned.

So Li Ke agreed: "My king agrees, but you must know your overall plan."

Wang Pingan said: "Your Highness, please come here with your ears."

Ever since, His Majesty King Wu walked up to Wang Ping'an and passed by with his ears. This made people who didn't know Wang Ping'an stunned and couldn't believe their eyes. It's only a little older than their officials, why the prince wants to listen to him.

Wang Ping'an whispered a few words into Li Ke's ear, which relieved Li Ke's heart that had been hanging all along. He said with a smile, "In that case, if Ping An has any orders, this king will follow them."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your cooperation. The general is very grateful." Wang Ping'an gave Li Ke enough face.

………………

After Wang Pingan finished dealing with the incident on Suzaku Street, he brought Shen Huai, Shi Tutou, and Wan County Magistrate back to the old nest of the Suzaku Gang. After that, he asked Zhao Hao to appease the people, and told the people of Suzaku Street the rules of the Qinghai Gang.

The people on Suzaku Street cheered when they found out that Wang Pingan had arrested Wan County Magistrate and Shen Huai, but another Qinghai Gang appeared, which made them think that the tigers were driven away and the wolves came again.

But after listening to the rules of the Qinghai Gang announced by Zhao Hao, they settled down again.

In fact, the rules of the Qinghai Gang are very simple. They only collect protection fees from merchants, and ordinary people will not accept them. If there is a need for capital turnover, the Qinghai Gang can also lend to merchants, as long as there is something mortgaged, and of course interest will be calculated. According to statistics, Wang Pingan only charged [-]% of the interest. For the Tang Dynasty, this interest was very low, and the merchants happily accepted it.

After dealing with the matter of Suzaku Street, Wang Ping'an started to deal with the affairs of Chang'an Gang, the hall of Dongshi. He said, "Magistrate Tang, there is another Suzaku Gang on Suzaku Street. Is there any gang similar to Suzaku Gang in Dongshi?"

Tang County Magistrate said to Li Ke and Wang Pingan: "Returning to the general, yes, there is a gang in Dongshi City called the Chang'an Gang. Two of them were arrested by the lower officials yesterday."

Wang Ping'an frowned and asked, "Oh, what happened?"

"Yesterday, a merchant sued two members of the Chang'an gang for extorting him. This officer arrested them and sent them to jail, and even sent someone to secretly protect the merchant."

Wang Ping'an nodded and asked, "I didn't expect that the county magistrate of Tang is not afraid of power, but is more sympathetic to the people. This general admires it, but this general wants to ask, why don't you wipe out the Chang'an Gang?"

County magistrate Tang sighed: "Hey, it's not that the lower officials don't want to, and the lower officials have no real evidence, and there is a big backer behind the Chang'an Gang, every time the lower officials arrest people in the cell, but they are released within two days .”

"Oh, do you know who is behind the Chang'an gang?"

Magistrate Tang shook his head to express his ignorance.

Wang Pingan frowned and asked, "I don't know? Didn't any of them come to you? Who was the one who forced you to release him?"

Tang County said: "It is Chen Yifeng, the supervisory censor, Chen Yushi, who accused the subordinate officials of arresting people randomly, and severely educated the subordinate officials, asked them to release them, and was forced to release them in desperation."

"Oh, so it's him?" A middle-aged man with a small goatee appeared in Wang Pingan's mind.

"The general knows him?" Magistrate Tang asked subconsciously.

Wang Pingan sneered and said, "I know him. I have known him for a long time. He has impeached this general. I don't know if he has anything to do with the Chang'an gang?"

"I don't know." County magistrate Tang cupped his hands.

"Forget it, you go back first, and take everyone Ma Shan to the headquarters of the Chang'an Gang. The general will send twenty special forces to follow you. Your purpose is to subdue them. If you don't listen, you will fight." Wang Ping'an ordered.

"May I ask, general, under what name do I go to Chang'an to help you? Right now, they are just like ordinary people. I'm not good at arresting innocent people." Magistrate Tang asked.

Wang Pingan asked in a deep voice: "Then do you know that they are the chief culprits who abused the people? Do you know that many families are separated because of their wives? Do you know that many merchants are forced to leave because of them?" Bankruptcy."

Tang county magistrate replied helplessly: "Yes, all the subordinate officials know, but the common people seldom go to the yamen to sue them. Even if they do, they can only catch a few unrelated people."

Wang Ping'an sneered and said, "It's not that they don't want to sue the government, but they don't believe that the government can help them get ahead. They know that even if they are higher than the government, you can't catch the real culprit. They also know that if you sue Officials, they will receive greater retaliation, so they will not report to officials."

"The lower officials are incompetent."

Wang Pingan said unceremoniously: "Not only are you incompetent, but you have also become their accomplice."

Tang county magistrate was very puzzled by Wang Ping'an, and was also very angry. He asked: "General, the subordinate officials are incompetent, but the subordinate officials are incompetent to them. How could they become their accomplices? General, please don't slander the subordinate officials."

Wang Pingan sneered again and said, "Hmph, do you need to slander? Because you have your own set of principles as an official, you are not afraid of power, and you always talk about evidence. Even if you know that the other party did it, you can only let them go. ?”

Magistrate Tang nodded his head and said: "The general is right, don't you need to prove everything, can you arrest people at will?"

"Pedantic, really pedantic, when this general arrests people, can he have evidence, will the evidence be conjured up by himself? The evidence is found by himself. And you arrested people, and then released them because there was no evidence. Do you think they were released? Will the people in this group take revenge on the people who reported to the officials?" Wang Pingan explained patiently.

Tang County Magistrate turned pale all of a sudden, and said tremblingly: "It is indeed the fault of the lower official, the lower official has indeed become an accomplice, the lower official is really useless, I am sorry for your Majesty, I am sorry for the common people! Ah~~~"

Wang Ping'an said impatiently: "Okay, stop crying and howling, and now this general orders you to take twenty special forces to arrest those Chang'an gang members."

"Yes, I'll go right away. But what about after I'm caught?"

"After you catch them, you will interrogate them in front of the county yamen, let all the people know that you arrested the Chang'an gang, and let all the people come to accuse them of crimes, so there will be evidence." Wang Pingan thought for a while Said.

"Understood, I understand, let me go here." County magistrate Tang said excitedly, and he could let go of his worries at noon.

So Tang County Magistrate took twenty fully armed special forces back to his yamen, and then called the yamen servants from the upper office to go to the headquarters of the Chang'an Gang to subdue them.

On the other side, Wang Pingan opened the special people's fat and people's ointment collected from Wan County Magistrate's home, as well as some letters, house deeds and land deeds, and said to Wan County Magistrate: "I never thought you would have today. Explain everything about your backstage clearly." .You may still have a chance to live. Otherwise,... hum..."

"Huaiyu, I leave this to you. If he really doesn't say anything, go and prepare a big tank. I'll use it tomorrow." Wang Pingan ordered.

"Yes. The general will definitely report." Qin Huaiyu responded.

Wang Pingan called another company of special forces, and quietly followed Tang County Magistrate, paying attention to his every move. He saw if he was a useful talent, and he went around Chang'an County to publicize that everyone in the Chang'an Gang was arrested, so that ordinary people can I went to sue.

The county magistrate of Tang soon came to the special office and asked Catcher Tang to gather all the pressure from the county office and start heading to the headquarters of the Chang'an Gang.

A total of more than 40 government servants in the county government, plus a total of 60 special forces, set off for the headquarters of the Chang'an Gang.

After walking for three days, they finally arrived at their destination. In front of them was a large mansion with eight rough men standing at the door. gold.Just looking at the door plaque, you can tell that this item is of great value, and it can better reflect that the Chang'an Gang has collected a lot of people's fat and people's cream.

The eight big men saw a large group of people coming from a distance, and felt that the visitors must be bad, so they went to the house alone to report the situation outside the house to their boss, Tian Da.
