Chapter 304: Heavy Punishment
In the back house of the Yamen of Dongchang, a pot of hot tea, a commander, and a general soldier frowned and whispered in the hall for a long time, no one dared to disturb, time passed unconsciously, and the sky was getting dark.
During this period of time, the city of Beijing was about to turn upside down, and the news of the assassination of the governor of Dongchang outside the front gate in broad daylight soon spread to all yamen, the soldiers and horses of the five cities, the Jinyi Guard, the government military guard, and even the Beijing camp were alarmed.
The governor of Dongchang was furious and ordered to dig three feet into the ground to arrest the assassins, Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi went out of the whole city to search and arrest, and the soldiers and horses who were responsible for the security of the capital were even more irresponsible.
Because of his personal friendship with Chang Yu, the government military guard immediately sent people to assist after receiving the news, as for why Jingying also intervened in this matter, this matter is a long story, and the child has no mother...... To put it simply, it can be regarded as a matter of responsibility, mainly because of the incompetence of the Terracotta Division.
The city of Beijing is the capital of a country, and the princes and relatives of the Emperor of Mancheng are important to the ministers and nobles, and the quality of public order has a bearing on the safety of the supreme ruling group and on the stability of the whole country.
Therefore, the security of the capital has always been the top priority, so a special yamen, the Terracotta Division, that is, the three-in-one yamen of the public security bureau, the fire bureau and the urban management bureau mentioned above, is responsible for the security of the capital.
At the beginning, the Terracotta Division was also very conscientious and performed well, but with the intensification of corruption later, the collusion between officials and thieves, and the capital was originally a political and economic center, and the scholars, merchants, monks, and displaced people who fled the famine gathered here, making the difficulty of public security more complicated, especially those large-scale influx of displaced people, who had no place to live, begging for food during the day, stealing and even robbing at night, killing people and goods, raping and abducting women, and doing all kinds of evil, even those so-called outsiders and monks are also cheated and abducted. Shame and shame, customs are swept away...... Like the refugees who poured into Western countries in later generations, it was a very troublesome thing.
In this environment, the security situation in the capital has become extremely severe, close to the soldiers and horses Division obviously can not control, although there are Jinyi guards secretly detective is also difficult to solve the crisis, at this time the Beijing camp was ordered to intervene in the army to participate in the patrol, strengthen the security forces of the capital, invest thousands of troops and soldiers and horses to patrol at the same time, all the city gates have hundreds of people patrolling, according to records, Zhengde years to invest 4,000 troops, Jiajing has increased to 5,000, the situation is most serious when the capital is full of soldiers, each other is only four or five steps apart!
Chang Yu was angry and ordered the whole city to be searched, and when the thieves fled, there were Jinyi guards who ordered all the city gates to be blocked, and then launched a large-scale search.
The hard work paid off, under the personal leadership of Chunxiang, the harvest was very rich, and several people who participated in the assassination at the front door were arrested except for two who were killed when resisting arrest, the only regret is that the assassin escaped immediately, because he was fast, and when the people of Jinyi Wei ordered the closure of the city, he had escaped from Yongding Gate.
In this large-scale manhunt, although one key criminal escaped, there were many unexpected gains, and many other small people were arrested, all of which were handed over to the Soldiers and Horses Division for strict interrogation.
If these Xiaoxiao are very likely to go in and turn around on weekdays, they will be let go after a circle, this time they are unlucky, and the people who were ordered to be taken by the Admiral of Dongchang in anger are all suspicious, and it is not so simple to get out, and the soldiers and horses dare not let it go easily.
It was dark, Chang Yu sat alone in the back hall of the yamen in a daze, but Tang Tong was no longer there, and went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to go through the formalities, almost all the yamen of the Ming Dynasty were restrained from each other, Dongchang and Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei, Dongchang and the Three Law Divisions, the cabinet and Dongchang Jinyiwei, the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies...... Wait a minute.
The Governor's Office of the Five Armies claims to be in charge of the military power of the world's soldiers and horses, but what about the military department?
In the end, who is the boss and who is in charge.
Count, one pen and one stamp.
To put it simply, the governor's office of the five armed forces has the right to command troops, but not the right to transfer troops, while the military department has the right to transfer troops, but not the right to command troops. But in general, the military department still has more power, because in addition to being in charge, military status, ordnance, and the right to transfer troops, it is also in charge of the food and grass of the garrisons in various places, which is equivalent to the current Ministry of National Defense, the General Staff Department, and the Logistics Department.
So Tang Tong was named by Chang Yu to go north with him, and he needed to go through the procedures of two departments in the middle.
Tea drink alone, more can taste the taste, although the spring has already begun, the weather still does not feel the obvious warming, the cold night in the capital is still biting, the little eunuch of the East Factory alone tastes tea and ponders, but the indoor is the warmth of the fire.
And at the end of the streets and alleys, there are a large number of homeless people huddled in the simple square inches, trembling or sleeping with each other's warmth, or begging in front of the store, or pestering a pedestrian to appreciate some silver or food, especially a single pedestrian or woman, there will always be a group of women and children around them, if they do not leave something, they will not be able to get out at all, and will even be attacked and forcibly plundered......
Tonight is a bit special, these homeless people don't dare to be too arrogant, because just now a large number of soldiers, patrolling and Jinyi Wei searched for assassins throughout the city, and when they met them, they disturbed the peace, and they beat and scolded them violently, which made them restrain a lot.
It is as annoying as the beggars who stalked the streets in later generations, but it is also really pitiful than those in later generations, who are really homeless, without food and clothing, and even starve to death or freeze to death when the sun rises tomorrow.
"Get up, get up......" Almost at the same time, a group of fierce men came to the gathering places of homeless people in the streets and alleys of the capital.
These men have unkind faces, even more fierce than the soldiers and horses, but what they say is very exciting: "There is work, food and wages, do you want to do it?" ”
Dry!
No one even asks what to do, in the era when human life is like ants, it is fortunate to have something to eat!
The candlelight flickered, Chang Yu leaned on the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, Wu Mengming pushed the door in, then sat down beside him, picked up the teacup on the table and poured it quickly, raised his hand and wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and exhaled a long breath.
"One million for each family, three months!"
Chang Yu squinted at the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile: "It's really rich, how can you be willing to give it?"
"It's rich"
Wu Mengming smacked his lips: "The so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, although these nobles are not enough in cash, but each of them has a deep heritage, and it is easy to sell some family property!" ”
"It's not as easy as you said, after all, it's all when the sun is waning, relying on the ancestors' foundation has long been empty, and now most of them are empty shelves, the emperor opened his mouth this time with a million people, which definitely hurt their muscles and bones" Chang Yu opened his eyes and glanced at the teacup, Wu Mengming hurriedly helped him make tea, and served it with both hands.
Chang Yu stretched out his hand to take it and took a sip: "Our family originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to get so much, but I didn't think that Lord Wu would come easily, our family admires it, what tricks do you use, teach some experience."
"Lord Factory Supervisor, this is making fun of his humble duties" Wu Mengming smiled, and his face could not hide his pride.
"It's really not," Chang Yu Zhengse said: "After paying so much money, I can still accept being locked up for three months, and our family is not sure that we can handle it."
"Pay the money, everything will be fine in three months, come out or the Hou Ye, don't pay, even if you look at the death penalty for the sake of the death penalty coupon, the living crime is inescapable, the prison is very likely, and the title has to be taken off." Wu Mengming said slightly.
"And then they answered?" Chang Yu was surprised.
