Spring goes to the end of summer, March time flies in a flash, and it is July in a blink of an eye.

People always forget, because as time goes by, there will always be new events that attract everyone's attention, and three months later, the fire in Changxingfang is rarely mentioned by people in Beijing, even though the project to rebuild Changxingfang has just begun, and many victims are still homeless.

In May, a large wave broke out on the Yellow River, which overturned the fleet of Huashigang ships that had been transported from the south of the Yangtze River to Bianjing, which not only caused many people on the boat to die in the belly of the fish, but also caused countless exotic flowers and stones scavenged from the south of the Yangtze River to the bottom of the river and were difficult to find.

Everyone knows that today's officials like to collect exotic flowers and stones, and they did not hesitate to have people tear down the capital gate in order to transport a giant mountain stone into Tokyo. In order to do what he liked, Zhu Mian, who was sent to Jiangnan as an official, used all kinds of tricks to snatch out all the local flowers and stones, and then transported them to the capital.

Now, after a year, more than a dozen boats of Huashigang tribute have actually capsized in the Yellow River, which is naturally enough to give the officials of the DPRK and China a headache, and also provides enough topics for the people in Beijing to talk about, and some people even secretly say in private that this is the will of heaven, but to wake up today.

In addition to this matter, there is another thing that is closely related to the daily life of many people in the capital is always mentioned by everyone after dinner, that is, at the end of April, shortly after the arson case of Changxingfang, the Kaifeng government set up a branch office called the public security office in Dongcheng.

Originally, everyone didn't pay much attention to this, after all, there are a lot of bad people with various backgrounds in Tokyo City, and even Kaifeng Mansion is helpless against them, what role can Xinli play in such a so-called public security?

But as a result, there was no grade at all, and only one of the public security stations erected by the head of the thirty or forty men had opened up the situation in the east of the city, not only completely established a firm foothold, so that the local streets were clean, but also set a number of prohibitions and rules, so that more than 20 squares in the east of the city, nearly 300,000 people were convinced, and when it came to Sun Dutou, who was in charge of all public security affairs, almost everyone had to give a thumbs up, saying that he was really a good official.

When a newcomer to the capital heard about it, he would always ask a few suspicious questions, and then someone who knew the matter well would stand up and explain it on his behalf. Today, on the famous drunken incense building in the east of the city, someone asked this question again, which quickly attracted the answer of enthusiastic people:

"This brother seems to have just arrived in my Tokyo recently, so he doesn't know how powerful our iron-faced and ruthless Sun Du is. In fact, at the beginning, not to mention you foreigners, even those of me who have lived in Dongcheng for generations can't believe that a police station can make the situation in the east of my city very good.

"Over the years, for various reasons, the street in the east of the city has become more and more rampant, in addition to forced buying and selling, there are also all kinds of incidents of abduction and fraud, but now, since the law and order of the public security station has set up rules and severely punished a group of scoundrels, the situation has been greatly improved, and now it is much safer to go to the street than before."

The remark immediately drew a response from others: "Who's to say it's not? Originally, we were worried that there was a bamboo gang behind those splashes, and we were afraid that the poor men of the security station would have nothing to do with them. But in the end, Sun Dutou really dared to do anything, as long as someone complained, he could bring someone to the door to get someone on the same day, and it would not be discounted. ”

"I'm actually not the first to come to Tokyo, but I heard in the past that the Bamboo Gang has always had some friendship with some officials in Kaifeng Mansion, and often people can be released not long after being taken into the yamen.

"Ha, you've got the point in your hand this time. Yes, Sun Dutou really couldn't change this, but he knew how to be flexible, and just said that the things they committed were not too serious, so he imprisoned them in the public security center, and did not send them to the Kaifeng Mansion as before. ”

"And such means? But he is setting up a private court, so no one objects? ”

"Sun Dutou is a wise man, how could he make such a mistake and tell the truth? He just took people into custody without interrogating or beating them, so some people in Kaifeng Prefecture had nothing to say. ”

"What kind of countermeasure is this? Just locking people up, can they still make things happen? ”

"Hey, you don't know how powerful Sun Dutou is, he stuffed people into the black cell of the police station, and then he didn't care. At the same time, they did not even give the prisoners a little food or drink, nor were they allowed to visit the prisoners, so they were locked up for three or five or seven days, and when they were so hungry that they could only breathe a breath, they were thrown out of the door. ”

When the stranger heard this, his face suddenly changed, and then he gave a thumbs up: "Gao, this trick is really powerful, as long as anyone suffers this hardship, they will not dare to violate the royal law again in a short period of time." ”

"That's why I will admire Sun Dutou from the bottom of my heart, just because he can do things that others can't. And even the Bamboo Gang, which was quite domineering before, also kept a low profile because of the establishment of the security station, I heard that several members of the Bamboo Gang had gone to the security station to make noise and wanted to rob people, but more than 20 men went straight in, until seven days later, they were thrown out of it horizontally, and there were many more internal and external injuries on their bodies. And some people say that these guys were defeated by Sun Dutou alone, and the other errands didn't have a chance to make a move. ”

This is a mysterious statement, but it also attracted more people to join the topic, and someone went on to say: "I can testify that Sun Dutou is strong in martial arts, I heard that when he was in Shandong, he helped the officials and soldiers to suppress bandits, but the bandits who were helpless for hundreds of officials and soldiers were suppressed by him alone, and he also recaptured the 100,000 pieces of property lost by the imperial court." It is precisely because of this ability that Sun Dutou was promoted from a cloth cloth to the head of Kaifeng Mansion, and it is said that he still has the identity of a nine-grade official. You say, if it weren't for Sun Dutou's strong martial arts, how could he have this opportunity? ”

This kind of legend is indeed quite bluffing when it is combined with the actual statement, and the stranger and the other drinkers couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing it, and praised Sun Dutou for his good martial arts, so powerful!

There was still some distance from these people, and in the private seat separated by a screen, a handsome young man with a luxurious aura on his body also took a wine glass and listened attentively to their words at this time, and then looked at the burly strong man beside him and said, "Jia Ping, what do you think?" ”

"It's not difficult to bring down a dozen or twenty scoundrels on your own, but the latter statement is a bit exaggerated. The small ones will definitely not be able to do it, unless that Sun Dutou has the same high-strength martial arts as Xiang Yu in ancient times, otherwise they are blowing nonsense. ”

The young man smiled when he heard this, and listened attentively to the topic outside, only to listen to another person: "In fact, what we admire most about Sun Dutou is his iron-faced selflessness, whether it is those scoundrels who are broken-skinned or the slaves in the families of some officials, as long as they violate the relevant prohibition laws, he will treat them equally, and punish people severely." So now it is rumored that Sun Dutou is ruthless with an iron face. ”

"Speaking of this, there was an incident two days ago, two families actually galloped on the royal street in front of them, not only knocked over many vendors along the street, but also stepped on a lot of pedestrians who couldn't dodge. As a result, Sun Dutou happened to lead people to inspect the neighborhood at that time, and when he saw it, he made a decisive move, knocked the two of them down in a few clicks, and tied them up and took them to the security center to be detained, and they still refuse to release them to this day. ”

"I saw this with my own eyes, and I heard that the two Yanei belonged to the Duke of Wei, and now the people of the Duke of Wei are still fighting a lawsuit with Kaifeng Mansion, forcing them to hand over people."

When the young man heard this, his face showed even more approval and curiosity: "This Sun Dutou is really interesting, even the government of the Duke of Wei dares to arrest him at will, so bold." ”

As he spoke, he put the cup and chopsticks on the table and stood up. The man who was carefully accompanying him on the side quickly got up and said, "Childe, are you going back?" ”

"No, I want to go to the security station and see what kind of character this iron-faced ruthless Sun Dutou is." As he spoke, the young man had walked out of the private room and towards the staircase.

At this time, the foreigner behind him asked with some curiosity: "By the way, you haven't told me the exact name of this Sun Dutou after all this talk." ”

"Sun Dutou's name is Sun Tu, and it looks like he hasn't reached the weak crown this year." Hearing this, the young man's footsteps were paused, and then he said in a low voice: "This is the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers." Sun Tu ...... "But he has already remembered this name in his heart."
