Chapter 75: The government interrogated
Dangnanfu and Yunjiang were the only two remaining prefectures in the Xiao State, and the other places were all removed, and all prefectures were used as the highest administrative unit in the region.
When Nanfu and Yunjiang were retained due to historical reasons, the governors of the two prefectures had the power to be subordinate to the four grades but did not have the power of the four rank officials, which was also a unique treatment.
Yunzhou City is the place where the government of Yunjiang Mansion is located, and Situ Jingping went to the government of Yunjiang Mansion to find Governor Lu to learn about the Panlong Sect.
"The next official paid a visit to Lord Situ, but I didn't know that Governor Situ was coming, and I missed the welcome, I hope your lordship will forgive me!"
Situ Jingping's sudden visit caught Lu You, the governor of Yunjiang Mansion, off guard, and hurriedly saluted to greet him.
"Get up, this official has come to say hello to you, and by the way, I will learn a few things from you."
Situ Jingping didn't talk about officialdom, and when he came up, he went straight to the point and explained the purpose of the trip.
"Thank you Lord Situ for your love, I don't know who this Lord is?"
Just now, Lu You could see clearly that Situ Jingping and the person next to him stepped into the door at the same time, and there was no difference between the front and back of the position he was standing in now.
"This is Lord Guo Weiguo of Dali Temple!"
"Guo Wei! Xiao Guo's first detective Guo Weiguo! Xiaguan meets Master Guo! ”
Hearing Situ Jingping's introduction, Lu You was taken aback, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him was Guo Wei, the first detective of Xiao State.
"Rather provoke the king of Yama and the ghost, do not bully Dali Guo Ziwei" This sentence is known to everyone in the officialdom, it is said that there are two people in Xiao Guo who stomp their feet, and the officialdom will tremble three times, one is Xiao Huang, and the other is Guo Wei.
"No need to be polite!"
"Adults, please come with me!"
After saluting, Lu You took the two adults to the rear hall, and asked someone to prepare tea, the main hall is a place to ascend, not suitable for receiving guests.
"Come, two adults, please be seated!"
Situ Jingping and Guo Wei were invited to sit down in the main seat, and Lu You sat in the lower position.
"I have admired the name of Lord Guo and the first detective of Xiao Country for a long time, and when I saw it today, Lord Guo is really extraordinary!"
Sycophants have always been used to shoot, Lu You decided to shoot first as a respect, and stared carefully at Guo Wei's forehead after shooting.
"It's all the love of the world, Guo is ashamed of it!"
Guo Wei is not a person who cares about reputation, as a Dali Siqing, reputation is something outside the body, not to mention that his reputation in the court has long been stinky.
Finding that Lu You was staring at his forehead, Guo Wei asked again, "What, is there something on my forehead?" ”
After speaking, he also touched his forehead with his hand.
"No, no, the adults judge the case like a god, there is really no need to be modest, the people, including the lower officials, have a lot of admiration for the adults!"
Regarding Guo Wei's case, there are various versions of folk legends,
Some say that Guo Wei has a third eye on his forehead, which can see things that ordinary people can't see, and can directly see the appearance of the murderer;
Some say that the gods are dreaming, and in the dream, the gods directly tell him who the murderer is;
Some say that when he handles a case, the gods will possess him, so he will know what the world does not know;
There is even more outrageous, saying that he is a god, who has violated the rules of heaven and has been demoted to the mortal world, so as to accumulate merit by judging cases, and only after the merit is completed can he return to heaven.
There are all kinds of folk sayings about Guo Wei's case, as outrageous as it is, in short, Guo Wei has been passed on to the gods.
"Ahem! Let's talk about the purpose of being here today. ”
Hearing Lu You's pandering words to Guo Wei, Situ Jingping coughed awkwardly to change the topic.
Situ Jingping has naturally heard about the rumors about Guo Wei among the people, if he continues to say this, he doesn't need to ask Lu You questions today, and it will be changed to Guo Wei's large-scale fan meeting.
Hearing Situ Jingping's reminder, Lu You restrained his performance.
"Lord Lu, the main reason for this official's visit today is to learn from you about the Panlong Sect."
Stopping the enthusiastic Lu You, Situ Jingping asked out loud.
"What do you want to know about the Beaulieu Sect?"
"You know everything."
This time, Situ Jingping was determined to uproot this restless sect so that it would not continue to plague the world.
"Hmm......" Lu You pondered for a while and said to Situ Jingping,
"My lord, the Panlong Sect appeared outside Yunzhou City a few years ago, and it is impossible to find out where the specific origin is, and now they are stationed on Jiu'an Mountain in the south of the city.
A few years ago, a woman would disappear inexplicably every time in a village outside the city, and then this kind of thing happened in Jiangzhou.
It took a lot of time and effort for the government to find out that it was the Panlong Sect, and it was only then that it was discovered that there was a bandit sect called the Panlong Sect.
Later, not only did the villages outside the city get women, but even the women in the city were taken out of the city.
We recruited militiamen to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits several times in succession, but the thieves were so cunning that the government failed to catch them every time.
But we also figured out their organizational structure, the head of the Panlong Sect is out of nowhere, and we haven't been able to grasp any news about him, and now the left protector of the Panlong Sect should be on Jiu'an Mountain.
The left protector of the Panlong Sect is Huang Jiajie, the holy hand of the fast gun, known as a cockscomb gun to stop thousands of troops, but it is unknown whether it is true or not, because the government has never fought with him, every time he goes to Jiu'an Mountain to suppress bandits, the Panlong Sect never confronts the government head-on.
I haven't seen the right protector, and I can't even know if the Panlong Sect has a right protector, and we have sent undercover agents in it several times and have also been identified.
All the women who were captured inside and outside the city were released by the Panlong Sect......"
It took nearly an hour, and after three rounds of tea, Lu You's throat was about to burst into flames, and he finally finished talking about all the things in the Panlong Sect.
"Well, anything else to add?"
After Lu You finished speaking, Situ Jingping already knew almost everything about the Panlong Sect, but he was worried that Lu You had missed something, so he asked again.
"No, my lord!"
Bowing his head and combing through what he said, and finding that there was nothing missing, Lu You replied.
"Well, is there anything else Brother Ziwei wants to ask?"
Guo Wei can always notice some details that he didn't notice, so Situ Jingping deliberately turned his head and asked him.
"Lord Lu, can you hand over the files on the Panlong Sect over the years to Guo?"
I didn't hear any flaws in Lu You's words, and Guo Wei decided to start with the case file.
"No problem, it's my honor to be able to help the adults," Lu You said without thinking, "I don't know where the adults live?" ”
"Qianyuan Inn, you just send it to the shopkeeper."
As an inn for officials, the Qianyuan Inn must have a place to deal with government affairs, and it is generally opposite the Accord on the second and third floors.
"My lord, will Governor Situ ......?"
"Nope! An empty mountain, no matter who investigates, they can't find anything! ”
Looking at Situ Jingping and Guo Wei who were far away, Lu You said categorically.
"How's it going, did you find anything wrong?"
Out of the yamen, Situ Jingping asked Guo Wei.
"I haven't found out for the time being, there may be something wrong with the Yamen, I have been dealing with the Panlong Sect for so long, and I don't even know how many people there are on the other side."
According to common sense, no matter how bad the government is, it will not even know how many opponents there are, and this wave of operations of the Yunjiang Mansion is very puzzling.
Judging from the governance of Yunzhou over the years, the official government of Yunjiang Mansion is not bad, although it is not very prominent among the more than ten states in the south of Xiao State, it is definitely not the end of the package.
In fact, there is still a doubt, that is, what Lu You said was very smooth, but it was very smooth, and there was no careful recall at all, as if it had been sorted out in advance.
But Guo Wei didn't say it to Situ Jingping, after all, he wasn't completely sure.
"Well, it's true, the Yunjiang Mansion is indeed a little abnormal in this matter."
Although Lu You has already said the reason for this question, he still feels that something is not right.
"Your Excellency!"
After inquiring about the news from the streets and alleys, Situ Zhuanzhi came to the government to find Situ Jingping and Guo Wei.
"Adult ......"
"Let's go back to the inn!"
Seeing that Situ Zhuanzhi was about to tell him the news he had inquired, Situ Jingping hurriedly stopped Situ Zhuanzhi.
