Chapter 128: Public Security Issues
"I heard that something went wrong in the city last night?" The upright posture was as usual, Liu Chengyou didn't raise his head, and asked lightly.
The old figure standing in front of the emperor is Yin Houyi of Kaifeng Mansion, compared with the beginning of the year, this cunning old fox has not changed much, and his body still looks very tough.
However, seeing that the Son of Heaven was speaking bluntly, he made a salute, glanced at it carefully, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, some scoundrels, after getting drunk, provoked in the city, and a brawl broke out, resulting in a small ......."
"A little mess? They all developed into armed fights, causing deaths and injuries, so what is chaos? What about creating a stood? Liu Chengyou's flat tone was already full of questioning.
Hou Yi buried his head a little lower, and said in a hateful tone: "A ruffian, take advantage of the chaos to do evil!" The curfew and the closure of the city were extended, and the officials below were not well prepared and could not react in time, which was the negligence of the ministers. ”
Hou Fuyin's attitude was very upright, or maybe it was his cleverness, and he generously admitted that he took the initiative to take responsibility.
Last night, in the city of Tokyo, there was a sudden disturbance, which developed from an ordinary quarrel and provoking trouble to a weapon fight involving dozens of people. Obviously, the people in the government did not take precautions against this in advance, which caused a big trouble.
"How many people were killed or wounded?" Liu Chengyou glanced at Hou Yi.
"Five people died, seven were seriously injured, and eighteen were lightly injured." Hou Yi obviously had a detailed understanding and said very skillfully: "After the incident, the Kaifeng Mansion and the Inspection Department both sent officers and soldiers to arrest them, and a total of 117 people were arrested. All but a few of the thugs who participated in the fight were captured. ”
"So many people involved?" Liu Chengyou frowned.
Hou Yi hurriedly explained: "In order not to slip through the net, all the people present have been arrested and returned to the Yasi, and the ministers have been interrogated one by one to distinguish between good and evil, and more than 40 innocent people have been released. In addition, the ministers also sent their subordinates to arrest and arrest those who escaped according to their confessions......"
After listening to Hou Yi's report, Liu Chengyou's expression eased a lot, no matter what, this Hou Fuyin was quite organized in dealing with the aftermath.
"What's going on with the fire in the south of the city?"
Without thinking, Hou Yi said: "The small people are crowded together, and the fire is not used carelessly, resulting in a disaster. Thirteen houses were burned down, but fortunately the weather was damp, and the suppression was timely, and there was no expansion, and there were no casualties......"
"Hou Qing, the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, is indeed responsible!" Liu Chengyou was silent for a while, and only then did he say to Hou Yi, seeing that he was still standing, he raised his hand and signaled: "Sit down and talk back!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Seeing this, the old thing quietly breathed a sigh of relief and sat down. Don't look at him to deal with it easily, but to say that there is no apprehension in his heart, it is not necessarily true. Although he was appointed as the governor of Kaifeng, he would not think that he would be trusted by the emperor, after all, he had a "criminal record", and he was afraid that Liu Chengyou would find a reason to turn over old accounts.
After taking his seat, Hou Yi took the initiative to ask the emperor's opinion: "Your Majesty, what should you do with the people you have arrested?" ”
"Depending on the severity of the circumstances, kill when you should be killed, and arrest when you should be arrested, especially the leader, and be punished heavily!" Liu Chengyou replied very dryly.
"Yes!"
"How many homicides have been in prison in Tokyo this year?" Liu Cheng asked.
Suddenly hearing this question, Hou Yi sat on the wax, there was no urgency, where would he remember this, hesitated for a moment, or answered honestly: "Please forgive your majesty, after the minister returns to the ya, inquire about the treasury file." However, there were more than 40 cases handled by the ministers themselves. ”
"The management of the city in Tokyo needs to be improved!" Hearing this, Liu Chengyou's calm tone released a dissatisfied attitude.
Clearly feeling this, Hou Yi immediately spoke and promised: "In the future, the minister will definitely rectify it strictly!" ”
Although it is a capital division, Kaifeng City is not a place of order and stability, especially between the markets, dragons and snakes are mixed, and people from all over the world are salty and lose inside. Excitement is inherent, prosperity is also recovering, but chaos and crime are never scarce, especially in times of turmoil.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there have been two periods of public security in Tokyo, which is very good. However, it is an unhealthy and difficult to sustain by relying on high-pressure control and strong law to deter.
One is that Liu Zhiyuan first entered Kaifeng, a few months after changing the name of the country, during that period, it was basically the implementation of militarized management. It was not until later that Liu Chengxun, the king of Wei, and Liu Chengyou intervened successively, and it was eased.
The second is that in the month or two after Liu Chengyou succeeded to the throne, in order to seek political stability and public security, the management of Kaifeng City was extremely strict and even fierce. At that time, Shi Hongzhao and Liu Xin were in power, two ruthless people, both of whom liked to practice the law, and basically as long as they made a slight mistake, they were pulled to the guard department for "education".
At that time, the scoundrels in the city of Tokyo could be said to have disappeared from the wind, did not dare to show their sights, the roads were abandoned, people did not dare to take them, and the people did not even dare to walk with their heads up. The law and order are good, the situation is stable, but it can be said that for most people, the air in Tokyo is oppressive, and it is not easy to breathe.
In particular, the follow-up patrol officers, in order to seek personal gain, became adulterous due to fate, framed goodness in vain, and indiscriminately punished them, causing a very bad impact. Bian Guiyan, the servant of the Criminal Department, also admonished Liu Chengyou with this, suggesting that Liu Chengyou should implement the rules and regulations, crack down on illegal military officials, and return the people to peace.
Liu Chengyou was kind and admonished, but it was only after Shi Hongzhao and Liu Xin successively transferred out of the forbidden army that they were completely improved, and the public security management of Tokyo was completely returned to Kaifeng Prefecture. In this way, as soon as the management is relaxed, the cow ghosts, snakes and gods will inevitably emerge.
For these, when Hou Yichu took office as the governor of the government, there was a period of time to show his actions, but the fundamental problem never ended. In the final analysis, it is the inadequacy and ambiguity of the management system, coupled with the law enforcement of the government, that there are also many problems.
Small fights on weekdays can't reach Liu Chengyou's ears, but this time a fight was directly reported by Wu Desi as important news, which once again attracted Liu Chengyou's attention.
At this time, listening to Hou Yi's words, Liu Chengyou shook his head slowly, and a "strict rectification" could not satisfy him.
Noticing Liu Chengyou's expression, the old guy's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked respectfully: "I don't know what your majesty has to teach, and listen to the holy will?" ”
This old decay, in terms of astuteness and smoothness in observing words and colors, really doesn't look like a martial artist who has worked hard from Qiu Ba.
Liu Chengyou did not pretend to be profound, and directly told Hou Yi his thoughts: "Tokyo's prosperity is recovering, but the management of the market is still missing. For the sake of public order, in view of the current situation in Tokyo, Kaifeng Prefecture promulgated a new city management punishment system! ”
"Your Majesty will see it!" Hearing this, Hou Yi immediately "licked" a sentence, and then said very calmly: "Your Majesty also knows that the old minister is just a martial artist, and the establishment and compilation of the rules and regulations are really beyond the power of the ministers, and the Kaifeng Mansion may not have such talents......
People's self-knowledge is sometimes really rare.
Seeing that Hou Yi did not respond directly, but made the problem clear, how could Liu Chengyou be guilty of his lack of ability? He obviously also thought about it, and waved his hand to him, and immediately said to him: "I have a suggestion for you, go to the Hanlin Academy to accept the essence." ”
At this point, Hou Yi also reacted immediately, and waved his hands with a smile: "The minister understands, thank you Your Majesty for mentioning it." ”
Recently, Fan Zhen has led a group of civil servants to concentrate on the compilation of the "Criminal Union", and then Wang Pu joined in to help, and the progress has finally been much faster. It was not a problem for him to help formulate a "Tokyo Public Security Management Ordinance".
"In addition, for the officials who patrol and inspect, we must strengthen management and supervision!" Liu Chengyou reminded emphatically.
"Yes!" Hou Yi responded decisively. I also secretly made up my mind in my heart to rectify and restrain the officials and servants under the Kaifeng Mansion, before he turned a blind eye, but this time the emperor spoke in person, of course he knew what to do.
In fact, in view of the deteriorating public security problem in Tokyo, Liu Chengyou has long had the intention of rectification, after all, the first good district, the market is so chaotic, what kind of system. The chaos on the night of the winter solstice just made Liu Chengyou's actions to rectify law and order a little earlier.
