Volume 2 Chapter 202 Banquet and Deliberation (2)
Li Dongming listened and said secretly: "This Yan is an old fox, not only brushing off his own involvement, but also secretly damaging my Jinju to handle the case, these cases are obviously deliberate, and they are masters, especially last night's extermination case, the siege and killing incident against Jincha, this is a provocation and even a declaration of war against the authority of Yanhu, this Yan Cheng can't see that this is not a matter of whether the city government can not help, but a major event related to the country of Yanhu, he still wants to seize power, it is really stupid." He swept his eyes slightly, and saw that the banquet was like a cast of iron, and the expression on his face and eyes did not change at all.
Yan Chen waved his hand and said: "This case has come so many at once, there is obviously a plot, this Ding Zhangqi is idle at home, and Li Dongming has just taken over, so naturally it is not as experienced as the city government's jurisdiction and punishment, so let's look at it like this......"
Yan Cheng asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Zhang Dong, you take a hundred servants, assist Li Dongming, a novice, and guide him to handle the case on the side, don't drag on any case for so long, it's not like it."
Zhang Dong's face was not good, it was uncertain, and he wanted to speak, but the city lord did not stop at the banquet: "If you vacate the place, let Ding Hulu go, his body is only afraid that he will not be able to run around, so let him go to the city for a few days." ”
Yan Cheng was a little embarrassed when he heard this, what does it mean to go to the city to raise for two days, it is clearly said that the city government is a place for the elderly? So he said, "The city lord ...... Not long ago, although the black blind man, the deputy leader of the Baishun Gang, was killed in Yanhu, but it also shows that these are close to the festival stalls, and these pirates and mountain bandits who are wandering outside also have the idea of going into the city to fish in troubled waters, and the security in this city is only afraid that there will be no manpower. ”
Banquet and employment of people have never been nepotism, although there will be a lot of idlers, and the relatives will try their best to arrange positions with their ability, but the control of the main position is still relatively strict, Yan Cheng can naturally have some level, as the city government in charge of public security, he has his own vision, obviously a winter sacrifice, so that the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods lurking in the shadows have appeared, and they seem to want to take the opportunity to come to Yanhu to take a bite.
"You're right, it's true that the security in the city needs to be strengthened, so let's let the patrol battalion arrange one flag, not two flags, strengthen the security of the outer city and outside the city, and let Li Yuan lead the team, I heard that he just ran the deputy gang leader of the Baishun Gang a while ago, let him also follow this line when he assists in defense, and see if he can find the nest of the Baishun Gang and rectify these thieves."
The patrol battalion is the establishment of the standing force of the lord's army, and each family has different names, generally speaking, it is the banquet army, and according to the size of its power, the number of such family troops varies. Yanhu belongs to the peaceful rise, not as famous as the Pujia army of the Kite Du Pu family, and the name of the "patrol battalion" also helps the other eight cities to assist in the defense, so that the newly attached lords are less disgusted, thus reducing the degree of rejection.
In other cities, the patrol battalion has a heavier task of managing public security, and in the city of Yanhu Lake, the city defense battalion is the army, in addition to the city wall defense is the protection of important facilities and officials' residences.
Unless appointed by the city lord, it generally does not go out of its own jurisdiction.
Yan Cheng must be very dissatisfied with this arrangement, this is not what he wanted, so he said: "Let the patrol battalion intervene in public security, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, isn't it a discussion at the city meeting?" ”
"No need, this arrangement is also for this winter festival, every big festival, the patrol camp has a custom of maintaining street security, just do it according to this practice, and when the winter festival is over, Li Yuan and they will all go back to the camp to stay."
"Amount"
"Okay, let's not talk about it for now, the cause and effect of the Chen family's extermination case yesterday, Su'er has already told Gu this morning, let's deal with it according to the Gu case for the time being, Gu will let the shadow guard stare at the Queshan Knights, Li Dongming, Gu will transfer the shadow guard six groups to you to use, you must close the Chengxi case before the winter festival, and see which bandit is so arrogant and dares to use such indiscriminate means." Yan Yan stood up suddenly: "Su'er is not scared, and he is restless in the back, so he still has to go and take a look, you will discuss it yourself, and then go back to handle the case." After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.
What else is there to discuss? The arrangement of the city lord's banquet can be described as simple and thorough, Yan Chengyuan wanted to step on the brocade bureau, but he didn't think that he was divided into half of the officials and returned to Li Dongming, what he said soundly, let Zhang Dong guide, in fact, people have passed, it is not Li Dongming's grasp, the key is that he has more Ding Zhangqi, Ding Zhangqi Ding Hulu is a confidant of the banquet, and he pulled it up with one hand, if it were not for the city meeting, the city government administrators did not agree, Ding Hulu would have already sat in the position of the city government pusher, Ding Hulu failed to become a pusher, The city lord just decided to build a new brocade bureau, and now arrange him back, of course Yan Cheng knows what this means.
Yanhu has risen too fast, as an old small city lord, there is even a danger of being cut off in the first two hundred years, but this decade is simply an expansion.
The decline of the Weilan Principality, so that many small lords around the loss of support, after Yan Chen succeeded to the throne, Yan Lake is the best development in this area, next to the big tree, the surrounding small lords rely on Yan Lake to survive, their rice grain, salt, iron, armor, swords and horses and even loans have to rely on Yan Lake, and the Suo Xia State that succeeded the authority of the Wei Lan Principality was defeated by the Kite Capital. However, the Song Dynasty snatched Qingxian, and suddenly cut off the pace of the annexation of the kite capital to the south, since the kite capital could not go south to expand the results of the war, it naturally asked the members of the East China Sea Alliance to compensate for the war losses, and Yanhu also compensated a large amount of money to the kite capital, and the other lost lords were not so colorful, and the war reparations in the river could not be avoided, it was like a prince's credit, once lost, the reputation of the family was ruined, and the lords would rather go bankrupt one by one and sell it.
These surrounding lords, the banquet is either their father-in-law or their creditors, and the perennial fighting, so that many lords also have the idea of retreating, after all, the current annexation war is much more cruel than before, and the previous defeat can still be a farmer, now once it fails, it is almost a disaster of annihilation, and the situation between the rivers cannot be allowed to develop slowly, and people with a discerning eye can see that the future is either the Kite Dupu family or the Lusong Dynasty to take over the river, and the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is not unknown to anyone, except for a very few
Some lords from low backgrounds might as well exchange some money to go to Jiangnan to enjoy happiness and escape from this place of right and wrong.
In the river, the etiquette collapsed, the former duke, marquis, uncle, son, male, and scholar titles have existed in name only, although there are ties, but the relationship between the princes is still determined according to the strength, and now it is roughly according to the owner, small lord, big lord, small city lord, big city lord, small city lord, big city lord, big lord to distinguish, these terms are all called behind everyone's back, such as Brother Cai, just the owner of the village, the scope of Brother Cai's manor is limited to the nearby farmland, the old town and even the village are not completely subordinate to him, it can be said that it is the landlord or the rich family. And the little lord is the lord who owns the old town or the tiger roaring town, of course, the old town used to be the site of the old Yanhu City, and it is directly under the Yanhu Lake. And the big lord is the Xue family and even Li Yuan's family, Yanhu used to be the lord of the small city, the castle has no moat, the lord of the big city has a moat, and the small overseer and the big overseer are completely determined to appoint how many officials or lords of the small city or big city can appoint independently.
The banquet is known as the Nine Cities of Yan, and it can probably appoint officials from five small cities and officials from the big cities of Peicheng and Zaozhuang, and the lords of the two small cities of Shanting and Changyi.
From the lord of the small city to the overseer, the span of Yanhu is really amazing, but it has also produced many problems, the organizational structure of Yanhu, the administrative system is still very old-fashioned, all of them are a set of teams of Yanhu City Ya, as the lord of the small city in the past, this is enough, but with the increase of castles, some powerful officials have been delegated. The old bureaucracy will always be nepotistic, and the officials sent to various places are appointed by the banquet and not mentioned, and the vacancies left are all promoted by some old bureaucrats in the city government, and many people are not worthy of the position, of course, the relationship is complicated, it is not only the people who need to be cultivated slowly, but also the henchmen of the major officials, which has caused all kinds of secret fights in the city government, this matter is not a secret, and the banquet wants to break this city government system and start anew, but it always involves too much, and it is impossible to achieve it overnight.
The people in various places may have different races, different nationalities, and different family names, but the people all want to live a stable life, not to fight, not to be bullied, to be wronged, and to be justified, so they can agree to the jurisdiction of Yanhu. But it involves law enforcement, justice, and legislation, and about legislation, Yan Chen wisely chose the Great Song Law as the template for the Yan Lake, although many provisions are not suitable for Hejian here, but on the whole, the Great Song Law is still a law that suppresses the powerful and takes care of the people.
When it was the turn to implement it, the judiciary of Yanhu was still controlled by some relatives and old nobles, and the interpretation of the law was still biased towards the powerful, but it was still acceptable in the end, so Yanchen now mainly wants to rebuild the public security problem.
The dispute between the city government and the Jin Bureau is actually a banquet and a clan family fighting for the right to enforce the law.
The new large and small territories of Yanhu, the old and the young have lost their governing power and military power, but there are still many property rights to the manor, of course, as well as the money to hire heroes and even mercenaries, and there are also some old departments who secretly serve, equivalent to some small lords who may rebel at any time, the relatives of Yanhu hope that Yanchen will set up small city lords in various places, and appoint the clansmen to serve, and then they can supervise those old and young on the spot, Yanchen is not, under the existing system of Yanhu, in addition to the Shanting Xue family and Changyi Yan family of Yan's cronies, Castle lords were no longer established elsewhere, and the power of the lords was gradually reduced to the number of lords.
