Sun Tu didn't know that the two subordinates who had just been assigned to him were already complaining behind his back, and he was still thinking about the current errand in his heart.

He could see that although Xue Yuanpeng didn't leave himself idle this time, he was actually not at ease. It is not easy to deal with just two subordinates who already covet the position of the head of the capital, and it is impossible for only about 20 people to take care of the security matters in Bianjing Jingcheng, including more than ten squares.

Obviously, Xue Tongju just wanted to let himself mess up the errand, and then find an excuse to send himself down. Of course, if he can really do things well, most of the credit will be obtained by him, the top boss, and the other party will not suffer anyway.

But even if he knew his intentions, Sun Tu couldn't fight back, but had to do his best to get things done, which was the best for himself. As for how to start, in fact, he already had a preliminary plan in his heart, it was not enough to rely on those subordinates of Kaifeng Mansion, and he had to ask for foreign help.

Two days later, in the private seat on the second floor of Liufangju, Sun Tu invited Lu Zhishen and his apprentices to a banquet. This is a rare good thing for those men who are from a bad family, and seven or eight people rushed over early, and they are even more grateful to Sun Tu. These people had never been taken so seriously before, and now that Sun Tu was an official, he could still treat them as friends, so it was naturally easy to impress them.

After toasting each other, Sun Tucai smiled and said, "This time I invite you to drink for two things. The first thing is to thank you for helping me bring down the Zhang family that day, although there were only two brothers Tang Fifteen and Gao San who came forward at that time, but I know that all of you have contributed a lot in it. As he spoke, he raised his glass and saluted everyone.

These men also raised their glasses and drank them all: "Sun Guanren is polite, our brothers are single-minded, since they want to help you, we should help from the side." ”

"The second thing is right now. You should also know that I have been given an official position, and I am on an errand in the Kaifeng Mansion, right? Sun Tu continued, and filled another cup for everyone: "There are many errands in the yamen, and I can't cope with it alone, so I want you to help me do something." Don't worry, as long as you can help me do things, I won't treat you badly. Even when the time comes, I can let you get an errand in the yamen, I wonder if you are interested? ”

"This ......" everyone looked at each other and did not answer immediately. It is obviously unrealistic to say that they are not impressed, but they still have concerns, the first is their own identity, after all, even if they don't admit it on the surface, they know that their own background is really unacceptable; The second is that Lu Zhishen is a little difficult to explain, they are the most righteous, the master didn't take care of them before, and now they can't climb the high branches at will.

Finding that these apprentices were all peeking at him, intentionally or unintentionally, Lu Zhishen laughed angrily: "You lazy guys, do you really want to be a spiller?" If you don't go to the vegetable garden to disturb the trouble, you can still have a more leisurely life. You just have to go, the Sprinkle family won't stop you! ”

"Thank you, Master!" Everyone was overjoyed, and then said to Sun Tu: "Sun Guanren, I naturally want to get a serious errand, but I don't know if the yamen can accommodate me and others." ”

"You don't have to worry about this, you only do what I want, and no one else can control you. As long as you can help me do a good job this time and make a contribution, I don't dare to say anything else, so that you can have a serious background is not a difficult task. Sun Tu assured as if he had taken care of everything.

"I should obey the officials!" Tang Fifteen took the lead in expressing his position, followed by the third year of high school, and then several other people also nodded yes. Sun Tu was overjoyed when he saw this, and looked at Lu Zhishen gratefully, the other party had indeed helped him a lot this time.

After toasting each other a few more times, Tang Fifteen and the others asked with some curiosity, "Sun Guanren, what kind of errand did you need to use us people?" ”

Now that he has taken them under his command, Sun Tu naturally wants to treat them sincerely, so he smiled and said: "It's just to manage the security in the Dongcheng area and ensure that some small people don't have any more trouble." If you have been in Tokyo for a long time, you should also know that there is chaos in the city now, and the Kaifeng Mansion has long intended to take action to rectify it, and I was sent to govern the eastern city. ”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the people present all changed, and the hands of two people holding wine glasses trembled, and they spilled the wine: "Actually...... Is it such an errand? ”

"What, what's the problem?" Sun Tu keenly sensed that everyone was retreating, so he asked vigilantly.

Several people hesitated for a while, and finally Tang Fifteen spoke: "You may not know Sun Guanren, just because of this matter, several officials have been demoted out of Beijing, and two Kaifeng Mansion Dutou died in an unknown manner......

"Is this the case?" Sun Tu's eyes narrowed suddenly, and then he realized what a tricky errand Xue Yuanpeng had handed over to him.

After Tang Fifteen sorted out his thoughts, he explained: "In fact, the chaos in Tokyo City was a little out of control as early as three or four years ago, although it was in secret, but the people still suffered enough. Some gang forces colluded with the dignitaries early on, the former used various means to gain benefits, oppressed the people, and then gave most of their own dividends to the latter, and then those dignitaries in the court and the central government protected them, so that they could be more unscrupulous, and even the government had no way to take them.

"Take my Dongcheng area as an example, there are two gangs of Zhujie and Shunshui that control water and land transportation, and ordinary people have nothing to do with them, but as long as there are large quantities of goods entering and leaving Bianjing, they must share their benefits, otherwise their goods will definitely have an accident.

"This is not serious, and the group of pink swallows will always attack young women who have just entered the city, and I heard that eighty percent of some private women in the city are under their control, and those women are their tools to make money."

Sun Tu really didn't expect that there would be such a dark side in the seemingly peaceful Bianjing City, which was really sensational and thrilling, and subconsciously asked, "Does the government take care of it?" ”

"Kaifeng Mansion is indeed in charge, but it's useless. The two gangs of Zhujie and Shunshui have long been in order, and they can't catch any tricks against them at all, and even those businessmen who are exploited by them don't dare to tell the truth, so the government has never had any way to deal with them. As for the Pink Swallows and the gang, they are even more well-informed, and the people in Kaifeng Mansion have not yet left the yamen, they have already been wary, and they have transferred all the manpower, and there is no way to investigate. Tang Fifteen smiled bitterly: "Of course, there are exceptions, I heard that someone in the Pink Swallow fell into the hands of the two heads, but as a result, those prisoners walked out with a swagger within two days, and the bodies of the two heads floated up from the Bianhe River after half a month......" In the end, there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

It was Lu Zhishen, who also turned black when he heard it at this time, and his brows were deeply locked: "There is such a thing?" Why has the Sprinkle family never heard of it? Also, how did you know all this information? ”

"Back to Master, there are many things that have actually been rumored in the market for a long time, and the apprentice also thought about joining the Bamboo Gang before, but they rejected it later, but they know a lot about it."

The senior and others also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Master, Sun Guanren, these gangs are not only numerous and ruthless, but also have people behind them, even if Kaifeng Mansion has always had no way to deal with them, it is even more impossible for us to deal with them......

"This is the Ghost Fan Tower, right?" Sun Tu suddenly thought of a legend from before and asked.

"In fact, Ghost Fan Lou is just a general name, when Bao Gong was in the Renzong Dynasty, he was appointed as the Kaifeng Mansion Yin who swept away these gang forces, and drove them to hide under the ground that was made a worry-free hole, and then there was this saying. But now, there is no such thing anymore, so it doesn't matter what ghost Fan Lou is, only these gang forces are rampant in Bianjing. ”

"I don't believe that at the feet of this son of heaven, Lang Lang Qiankun can actually make them lawless!" Sun Tu suddenly picked up his wine glass, took a sip of wine, and said, "Since I have taken this errand, I must try my best to handle him well." ”

His words immediately attracted Lu Zhishen's support: "Well said! The most unaccustomed thing for the Sprinkle family is that kind of nonsense and bullying bastards, and this time the matter is also a part of the Sprinkle family. ”

The statement of the two of them made the apprentices a little embarrassed, and they originally wanted to persuade Sun Tu not to rush into danger, but it turned out to be counterproductive, how should this be?
