The next day, I returned to Qimen to take a leave of absence, preparing to investigate the case of Pang Tiande's disappearance with Zhang Youqian.

I carried two high-grade Longjing, came to Zhuge Baked Cakes, and said, Lord Zhuge , I am not in Jinling these days, and the affairs of the Jianghu Division have caused you trouble, this is the first-class Longjing, which I bought on my business trip to honor your old man.

Longjing was brought by me from Zhang Youqian's house, and although he was a little reluctant, he gave it to me without hesitation. I saw Zhuge Yaobi's face full of sadness, sitting there sighing, so I asked, why is the adult sighing?

Zhuge Baked Cake said in a muffled voice, it was not because of Hu Zongxian's case.

I said that Hu Zongxian is a second-class member of the imperial court, even if the case is tried, at least the potato division, the radish division, and the cabbage division will be tried, why are you worried?

Zhuge baked cakes said, this is what gives me a headache, yesterday the emperor said, asking Jinyiwei, Dengwenyuan and Liumen to try together in Jinling. The members of the imperial court, instead of the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple, used the Jinyiwei and Dengwen Yuan, which directly belonged to His Majesty, and the emperor handled this case as a private case. The strange thing is, since it is a royal private case, why did you drag our six doors in?

Of course, I know why, what Hu Zongxian said yesterday involved in the level of officialdom, but related to the battle of luck in the world, involving the chair, so the emperor can only use his own people to try the case. As for the six doors, they are responsible for the inspection and the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and there is no problem when they are delegated.

As for the Dengwenyuan, I heard that it was an organization established thirty years ago, when His Majesty was still the crown prince, and was later disbanded by the former emperor, but after His Majesty succeeded to the throne, it was secretly retained, but this organization is very mysterious and rarely appears.

Speaking of which, there is still some relationship between Dengwenyuan and the Six Gates.

When Dengwenyuan was first established, it was still one set of people and two sets of teams with the six gates, but later it gradually broke away and became more and more mysterious.

In this way, the person who picked up Wang Heng in Songjiang Mansion that day was very likely to be the person from Dengwen Academy. Wang Heng was the commander of the forbidden army of the former emperor, and after losing power, he fled to the sea, if the former emperor was still alive, he should know the news.

In other words, over the years, Zhu Runze has secretly sent Dengwenyuan, a spy organization directly under his orders, to investigate the case of the disappearance of the emperor.

Obviously, Hu Zongxian seems to have an understanding of this matter.

Zhuge is very confused, but this kind of thing is not our turn to worry about, I can only comfort him, the emperor values Lord Zhuge very much, maybe he wants to let the Lord take advantage of this to make meritorious contributions and take the opportunity to ascend.

Zhuge scolded two sentences, promoted a fart, and rarely came to pat Lao Tzu's ass. I have the ability to eat a few pounds and a few taels of dry rice, and I know it in my own heart, but I am afraid that this job looks like a cluster of flowers, and it is indeed a deadly needle.

I reported to him, Zhuge said, I heard that the rivers and lakes have not been very stable recently, and now the saint is still in Yingtianfu, and your Jianghu Division is responsible for supervision and management, so don't take it lightly. Our six doors are six doors, the Jianghu Division is the Jianghu Division, you have been performing your duties for more than a month now, and you have to make some achievements, don't live up to the trust of Your Majesty and the people.

I said that I came to report this time, just for this matter, so I reported some thoughts in my heart to Zhuge Baked Cake.

Since I took over the Jianghu Division, the current Jianghu Party does not pay attention to the Jianghu Division, and lacks the necessary awe in my heart, which is completely contrary to the original intention of the imperial court to set up the Jianghu Division.

It's not hard to see why. The rivers and lakes are run according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, and the imperial court is managed according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, which are two completely different and even diametrically opposed codes of conduct.

In the rivers and lakes, happiness and enmity, the strong are respected, and strength is supreme.

In the temple, act according to the law, pay attention to justice, and pursue harmony.

The purpose of establishing the Jianghu Division was to integrate the people in the rivers and lakes into the social norms, but after these years of action, there has been no substantial change, and the imperial court has silently accepted the results of this reform.

I reported to Zhuge Baked Cake a few ideas on the establishment of a comprehensive supervision and management system in Jiangnan Wulin, and I was going to use Jinling as a pilot to implement it.

First, establish a registration and approval system. The establishment, merger and laying of branches of each sect must be approved by the Six Doors Jianghu Division after the issuance of certificates, and the establishment of an annual inspection system for sect certificates. For sects that fail to complete the requirements on time, they will be publicized and classified as evil sects.

Second, the implementation of six major regulatory indicators. From the scale of the sect, the level of martial arts, the sphere of influence, the results of the competition and other six aspects, the dynamic supervision and management of each sect, combined with the results of supervision, prudential assessment, and the results of the regulatory rating in the world are announced. The more excellent and standardized the school, the higher the rating.

Third, control the mouthpieces of the rivers and lakes such as Xiaosheng Jianghu and Jianghu Gossip Weekly, firmly control propaganda and other matters in their hands, and continue to promote the regulatory ideas of our Jianghu Division, so that each major faction can influence the entire Jianghu from the subconscious, so as to imperceptibly output new values.

Fourth, a regulatory fee is levied. This point is the most difficult to implement, in the Ming Dynasty, business to pay taxes, farming to pay taxes, rivers and lakes can not be an exception, before the martial arts conference tried to levy membership fees, but in the end, this kind of membership fees become the willingness of the major sects to pay. We should learn from this lesson, link the regulatory fee to the regulatory rating, and if necessary, carry out a second strike hard, and use the state violent apparatus to forcibly collect the regulatory fee.

Zhuge Baked Cake listened to my report, shook his head, and said, It's difficult. Xiao Su, your idea is very good, but it's unrealistic. The Jianghu Division is just a few of you, and the official's expectation for you is to be able to do a good job in maintaining stability in the rivers and lakes, mediating the internal fighting of major gangs, and maintaining order and stability in the rivers and lakes.

The suggestions you said, the thinking is too far ahead, you are Mr. Lu caught his head and took a temporary job to exercise, and in the future, he will return to the six gates of the capital, and there is an opportunity to promote the implementation from top to bottom, Jinling City is already chaotic enough, I suggest that you still don't toss too much.

I said that I understand what Lord Zhuge said, but if I don't try it, how will I know if it will work?

Zhuge Baked Cake was a little unhappy, Su Zhutou, you were photographed in the capital, if there is a problem in the future, pat your ass and leave, my Zhuge Baked Cake family has more than 90 people, but I want to eat.

I also expected this to be the result, so I said, Lord Baked Cake, what I said below may be a bit radical, but we can try to start with some simple things, such as controlling the speech of Xiaosheng Jianghu and Gossip Weekly first.

Zhuge Baked Cake's face was a little slower, you can try it, but the backstage of Xiaosheng Jianghu is not ordinary, and it is very likely to provoke powerful characters, don't blame me for not reminding you. By the way, there has been a lot of commotion in these two places of Wulin League and Tongshan Temple recently, you take the time to take a look, and let them not mess around during the holy drive in Jinling.

I agreed, but Zhuge was still worried about the Hu case, so I quit and withdrew. The reform of the Jianghu Division is an idea I have long had, and I originally wanted to write a letter to Lu Zhongyuan to seek support, but Zhuge Yaobi's words made me realize that this matter must be difficult, but with ideas, at least in the future, the Jianghu Division will carry out its work and have a vision.

The preliminary trial of Hu Zongxian's case was scheduled for the end of May, but Jinyiwei and Dengwenyuan were not idle, and since Hu Zongxian was convicted for embezzlement and bribery and the exploitation of rich people, the necessary investigation would naturally not be less.

Zhuge didn't have much to do, but the pressure he was under was not small. Another thing, that is, to appease the displaced people outside the city and persuade them to return to their hometowns, he handed over this matter to Zhang and Qian, the two heads of the six gates. But after a few days, it doesn't seem to be working.

If the emperor is not in Jinling, the government has one hundred and eight ways to deal with these displaced people, but at this time, none of them can be used.

And there is not optimistic news, a few days later, the plague began to break out outside the city, and some people began to fall ill for 6 consecutive years, which made the whole Jinling people panic.

South of Jinling City, Pang Tiande's house.

The Jianghu Division is not in charge of the criminal name inspection, but since Zhuge Baked Cake has approved the case to the Jianghu Division, we are also duty-bound. In addition to Zhang Youqian and Jiang Nan, there is also a guy named Liu Sanjin.

This is also one of the deals with the beggar gang Jinling helm Liu Yishou, the beggar gang has many people in the Jinling territory and can help us gather information and intelligence, and in return, we included his son Liu Sanjin in the team of temporary workers of the Liumen Jianghu Division.

Compared with Liu Yishou's shrewdness, this Liu Sanjin looks a bit of a tiger, has a hot temper, and is a dumbfounder. But this also has his advantages, daring to do things and never thinking about the consequences.

Pang Tiande disappeared on the second day of the fifth month, and the main house was reported to the official on the fourth day of the fifth month, because of insufficient evidence, the concubine and the bookkeeper were only controlled and not arrested in prison.

Pang Tiande's house looks from the outside, its appearance is not good, I thought that after entering the gold and silver sea, the gold is brilliant, but unexpectedly, in the Pang Mansion, the rockery courtyard, the small bridge and flowing water, the layout is extremely elegant, quite the charm of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

According to the case-handling procedures, we were divided into two groups, Jiang Nan and I, Zhang Youqian and Liu Sanjin in a group, and separated everyone, heard the news, and made records.

Generally speaking, in this procedure, we are responsible for collecting evidence, recording the case file, and recording it in the file in the future, and submitting it to the county or prefect for adjudication. In the future, when the verdict is issued, the six doors will only be responsible for chasing down and arresting key criminals, and the case will be solved by the six doors, and the case will be decided by the county and the prefect's yamen.

I worked until noon in one breath and had a general understanding of the whole case. On the night of the first day of the first lunar month, Pang Tiande had dinner and met a few guests, so he discussed with Zhang Fang in the study, and the next morning, Pang Tiande disappeared.

Mrs. Pang of the main house insisted that it was Mr. Bookkeeper who murdered Pang Tiande, but she couldn't come up with evidence, so she sued Zhang Fang and a concubine to the government.

The key is, if Pang Tiande was killed, where was the body?

I asked Mrs. Pang, you are sure that Pang Tiande was framed, then let me ask you, where is the body? Have you found it? Mrs. Pang howled and cried, we have searched for it several times, but there is no whereabouts of the master, so we are almost three feet into the ground.

I said let's dig three feet into the ground.

So he instructed everyone to prepare for a carpet search, and it didn't take long for someone to shout, "There is a scene!"

We rushed to the sound, and it turned out that a mother-in-law went to the well in the backyard to carry water, but it turned out to be a human head in the bucket!

The human head was somewhat rotten, but the face could be seen clearly.

I asked, whose head is this?

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know the person.

Liu Sanjin looked a little fierce, held the head in his hand, and said loudly, whose head is this? After asking several times in a row, everyone was surprised by his momentum and did not dare to answer.

Suddenly, in the back row, there was a little guy Nuo Nuo Dao, official, this ...... This is...... It's my head.
