Chapter 807: Arrest
TapTapTap......
In the early morning, a series of horses' hooves sounded on the stone road in the city of Nan'an.
Because the family was too early, there were not many people on the street, but when they saw that the knights were brocade guards, these people still hurriedly avoided them.
This makes the streets cleaner, and Chen Xiaoting passes all the way without obstacles.
The people are afraid of Jinyiwei, which is based on reality, because in the past two days, Jinyiwei has been dispatched to arrest many people and put them in prison.
The charges were all named as Tongwei, which made people in Nan'an City panic, and everyone was afraid that they would be the next person to be arrested by Jinyiwei.
Speeding down the street, Chen Xiaoting rushed in the direction of Qianhusuo, where he was about to do the final finishing touches.
Feng Wengui was responsible for the arrest of these two people, and according to the list of personnel set up by Chen Xiaoting in advance, a total of more than 50 people were arrested, from more than a dozen different families in Jiangnan.
These people have been accused of being a collaborator, can it be determined that these families are also colluding with the Japanese?
It is a great crime to be a widow, so not only are some people in the clan panicked when they are caught, but also those who have ghosts in their hearts.
After a while, Chen Xiaoting rushed to the outside of the Thousand Households, and immediately the captain on duty took the reins.
After dismounting, Chen Xiaoting asked, "Is Feng Wengui here?" ”
The little flag on duty stepped forward and said, "Back to the adult, Feng Qianhu has been in the yamen for the past two days!" ”
Feng Wengui is so serious? This was a big surprise to Chen Xiaoting, and then he stepped into the door.
Within two steps of walking in, Feng Wengui, who got the news, came out with two deputy thousand households.
It is foreseeable that after this errand is completed, Chen Xiaoting will leave, so there are not many opportunities for Feng Wengui to perform.
That's why he stayed in the Thousand Households for two days, just to let Chen Xiaoting come back at any time, and he could appear as soon as possible.
"Your Excellency, you're back...... He has been arrested and is now being interrogated in prison! Feng Wengui said with a smile.
Chen Xiaoting took off the official hat on his head, Feng Wengui immediately stepped forward to take the hat into his hand, and then asked, "My lord, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”
"Let's go!" Chen Xiaoting said in a deep voice.
Then they rushed to the place where they were executed, and the arrested people were all locked up there for trial.
After a while, Chen Xiaoting entered the 100 households in charge of the punishment, and all the laughing officials inside came out to greet him.
Chen Xiaoting didn't have time to waste time here, so he walked directly into the prison.
At this time, Lu Wenzhao came out of it, still holding a thick pile of papers in his hand.
"Humble to your lordship!" Lu Wenzhao bowed.
Behind him, there were several other Xiaoqi, all of whom specialized in complex interrogation.
And the document in Lu Wenzhao's hand is the result of their interrogation in the past two days.
It stands to reason that these confessions are the result of everyone's efforts, but they were caught by Lu Wenzhao with the intention of asking for a reward, which made several other small flag officials very dissatisfied.
But even if they are dissatisfied in their hearts, they can only hold it in their hearts, who let Lu Wenzhao be a person in the capital!
"What's in your hand?" Chen Xiaoting asked casually.
"Returning to your lordship, the confession of the thief is about to be presented to your lordship!" Lu Wenzhao replied.
Chen Xiaoting nodded, and then took the confession from Lu Wenzhao's hand, and read every page roughly.
After reading it, Chen Xiaoting handed the confession to Feng Wengui on the side, and said: "Copy a copy of this thing, keep a copy of it from thousands of households in Jiangnan, and hand over the original to the Zhenfu Division!" ”
"Yes!" Feng Wengui said after taking the confession.
"My lord, do you want to take people according to the confession?" Lu Wenzhao asked at this moment.
He was actually not qualified to speak at this time, but he spoke, so Chen Xiaoting looked at him coldly.
Stared at by this gaze, Lu Wenzhao hurriedly said: "My lord, I am humble, please forgive me!" ”
At this moment, almost everyone is waiting to see a good show, who asked Lu Wenzhao not to give others a chance.
At this moment, I only heard Chen Xiaoting speak: "Take someone? Take whom? ”
According to the emperor's will, after arresting all the people who directly committed crimes, the goal of further beating the Hao clan was achieved, and there was no need to expand the scope of the attack.
Again, the emperor must not only ensure the security and stability of Jiangnan, but also ensure the stability of its economic order, so that Jiangnan can develop sustainably and the imperial court can receive a steady stream of taxes and silver.
"There is no need to arrest people anymore, tell the people of the Yamen and let them prepare...... Three days later, behead them all! Chen Xiaoting said indifferently.
After saying this, he had no intention of looking at the prisoner, so he turned around and walked outside.
Kill them all? Is that what it means to close the case? Feng Wengui said secretly in his heart.
Since the case is about to be closed, why did he still copy a copy of the confession and send the original copy to the Suppression Division?
After thinking about it for a while, Feng Wengui understood in his heart that the emperor was going to take the handle of the wealthy clan in Jiangnan, and if the other party was disobedient in the future, he could take it out and beat it.
After figuring out this, Feng Wengui also went to the outside of the prison, he had to do a good job of what Chen Xiaoting had arranged.
After Chen Xiaoting was released from prison, he waved everyone away and went directly to the small courtyard where he lived.
Before entering the courtyard, Chen Xiaoting saw Liang Jiahui standing on the steps, looking looking forward to it.
Seeing Chen Xiaoting coming back, Liang Jiahui immediately greeted him: "The master is back!" ”
In these days in Jiangnan, fortunately, Liang Jiahui took care of his diet and daily life, so that Chen Xiaoting would not be too lonely.
So at this moment, he also had a smile on his face, and then said, "It's back!" ”
The two of them entered the room together, and Liang Jiahui brought tea, at this time she was much more charming than when she was with Chen Xiaoting, and Chen Xiaoting lost her mind for a while.
"Master drink tea!"
Liang Jiahui's voice woke Chen Xiaoting up, and then he took the teacup, and when he drank it, he suddenly felt warm in his stomach.
After putting down the teacup, Chen Xiaoting said: "The winter in this land south of the Yangtze River is really much warmer than the capital, but it's a pity that I can't stay for a few days!" ”
"My lord is going back to the capital?" Liang Jiahui asked in surprise.
Chen Xiaoting nodded, took Liang Jiahui's slender hand and said, "Yes...... Going back! ”
After all, after serving himself for so many days, Chen Xiaoting asked, "Are you willing to go to the capital with me?" ”
This is pure nonsense, Liang Jiahui is already his person, how can he not go with him.
"The concubine is naturally willing!" Liang Jiahui hurriedly replied.
Although everything in the capital is unknown, the only person she can rely on now is Chen Xiaoting.
"Good!" Chen Xiaoting said with a smile.
But at this time, seeing that Liang Jiahui was faintly sad, Chen Xiaoting asked, "What's wrong?" But what else? ”
Chen Xiaoting thought that she was concerned about her family, after all, she went to the capital and had no chance to see her family again in her life.
On this parting occasion, Liang Jiahui does miss her family, but at the moment she has other things.
Under Chen Xiaoting's inquiring gaze, Liang Jiahui said: "Master, the head of the family is ...... The concubine will bring you a message and say...... I would like to have a cup of tea! ”
Under Chen Xiaoting's gaze, Liang Jiahui's voice became smaller and smaller, she knew that she shouldn't ask about these things, but if she didn't help, she would bring trouble to her family.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoting had been staring at her, Liang Jiahui's body couldn't help trembling, she was frightened.
Just when she was about to cry, she heard Chen Xiaoting say with a smile: "If there is anything in the future, just say it directly, you don't have to hide it!" ”
After being stunned for a while, Liang Jiahui nodded, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, secretly saying that Chen Xiaoting did not blame herself.
