Chapter 288 Take the prisoner
As soon as I came to the street, I didn't walk a few steps, and a colleague came looking for him all the way, saw him, and hurriedly said: "Lord Yan is called, go back with me quickly!" ”
Pan Gui followed him and strode and asked, "When I came out, I had already taken leave, why was I so anxious?" ”
"I don't know, but I heard that there is a team of fast horse guards in the Beijing Division, and they have just entered the government office directly."
Pan Gui didn't know why, so he had to speed up and rush to the government office.
At this time, in the Yidu Road Governor's Mansion, several teams of guards with knives and guns blocked the entrance and exit of the official office on the third floor and the outer three floors. At the beginning of the year, Gu Kai, the Privy Council Counselor who was sent to Yidu Road from Beijing, had already taken off his gauze hat, taken off his official uniform, and entered the prisoner car in the courtyard.
Yu Bo, Tan Ziqi and other close subordinates were stopped outside the courtyard and were not allowed to enter. Everyone knelt down and cried: "My lord has always been loyal to the country, and he didn't dare to take a break since he entered the capital to suppress bandits." Now that he has suffered such a catastrophe, there must be some bad people in the court who are playing right and wrong and framing Zhongliang! ”
A guard next to him was furious: "The laws of the court are strict, and the country has its own laws, how can you allow you to speak foully!" The criminal Gu Kai disregarded Chaoen, flattered the power and treacherous, and was ordered by the emperor to suppress the thief, but he was powerless, defeated again and again, and was imprisoned today, cause and effect! You have uneven ambitions, but you have different intentions for the Great Yuan court? ”
Yu Bo burst into tears and said: "We have been thinking about this road since we came to this road, thinking about it all at night, all for the sake of remembering the emperor's grace and serving the court wholeheartedly. Although there are defeats on the battlefield, but there are also gains, how can you talk about it? Besides, Lord Gu strictly abides by the legal system and does not dare to go beyond the slightest, so how can he flatter and treacherously talk about power? ”
The thousand households angrily rebuked: "Clever rhetoric! If you don't retreat again, you will be detained together! ”
Gu Kai laughed miserably in the prisoner car, and persuaded loudly: "Shanyang don't want to say again, a certain heart is for the country, and today I went to Dali Temple, presumably all the officials will give justice to a certain one." Heaven is clear, and justice is in the hearts of the people. However, Shanyang and Zhenzhi will wholeheartedly assist Lord Zhuo and others in the future, quickly pacify the place, and return the local people to a peaceful world! ”
Tan Ziqi bowed down beside him and cried: "My lord, take care on the road, after Zhenzhi completes the emperor's order here, he and Brother Yu will return to Beijing as soon as possible to avenge your grievances!" ”
Su Wei Qianhu was impatient: "Gu Kai is a sinner in the court, you are crying and crying, dare to underestimate the court?" ”
A waiter from the Criminal Department came out of the house, saw Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi crying, and sneered: "Who am I, it turns out to be Brother Shanyang!" The prisoner Gu Kai has been reported by the Supervision Yuan, and the evidence is conclusive, and he is now arrested by the emperor's order, and he will be escorted to Beijing. When Brother Shanyang left Beijing, he was full of confidence, admired this thief prisoner, and said that he wanted to return a peaceful world to the Yidu realm, but now that the truth has been revealed, what else do you have to say? No matter how noisy it is, the official will be detained together! ”
"Lang Lang Qiankun, you and others are playing right and wrong, confusing the Holy Monarch, and the real court sinner! I hate not being able to eat your meat! Yu Burton clenched his fists and his eyes were about to split. Tan Ziqi hugged him tightly, afraid that he would be impulsive.
"Do you dare to slander this official in public, thinking that this official will not dare to hand over people to the Su Zheng and Honest Visiting Division?" The squire was furious, and his triangular eyes were about to burst into flames, and he was about to give orders to take people. "Gu Kai is guilty, you are his subordinates, or there is a conspiracy department, the imperial court is graceful, or not investigated, but this official will handle it impartially and will not tolerate selfishness! Let's take it first, and then go to Jingshi! ”
The subordinates responded violently, and they were about to step forward and arrest them.
"Wait!" Governor Zhuo Sicheng and Counselor Jiang Bin came out of the main hall, and when they saw this scene, they immediately stopped.
The squire had to bow down. This squire's surname is Jin, his rank is no more than the fourth grade, and the rank of the head of the Yidu Road Governor's Mansion can be much higher than that of the squire.
"My lord, this guy is talking wildly, insulting the court, and has a lot to do with Gu Kai, and he has been crying out for him, so it is inevitable that he will not be involved."
Zhuo Sicheng interjected: "You serve the Jingshi Yamen to do things, and I will naturally follow the Yidu Road. However, the text only said that the sinner Gu Kai was arrested, and no one else was mentioned, Yu Bo and others have worked together with Gu Kai for many years for state affairs, and some friendship in private is inevitable. ”
Jin Shilang reluctantly smiled and said: "Since it is the care of the adults, the lower officials will naturally obey everything, and if the arrest is completed today, the lower officials will resign, and if there is a nagging adult, look at Haihan!" ”
Zhuo Sicheng bowed slightly: "This is a thousand miles to Beijing, the car and horses are tired, you have worked hard." ”
"Serving the imperial court, of course, the lower officials dare not delay, and this is the departure process."
Jiang Bin came out and said: "The adults come and go in a hurry, and they can't take a break, they are really a model for hundreds of officials, and the prince is also very appreciative of this." Today, there is a reward from the prince to comfort you for your hard work in loyalty to the country, please smile! With a move, the two little guys each held a copper plate in each hand, covered with a red silk, and arched high inside, looking at the shape should be a piece of silver.
Jin Shilang swept his eyes casually, estimated no less than a thousand taels in his heart, and said with a smile: "The prince has a heart, the lower officials are just running errands for the saint, how can they be worthy of a generous gift!" He didn't shirk it, and motioned to his subordinates to take the copper plate quickly.
Jiang Bin said: "After all, I have worked with the prisoner for half a year, and I still have a few words to explain before leaving, and I ask the adults to be accommodating." ”
"Well said, well said. However, it is not early, and there is not much time to stay, so please forgive me. The squire waved his hand and paced to the side.
Jiang Bin walked through the guarded guards and came to the prisoner's car, and when he saw Gu Kai's face was innocent and his eyes were a little sloppy, he couldn't help but sigh.
Before he could speak, Gu Kai said in a low voice: "Xiaguan suffered this great disaster, it is estimated that when he returns to Jingshi to ask for the guilt, Mr. does not need to bother to run for Gu." ”
Jiang Bin didn't expect Gu Kai to be so unconfident about returning to Beijing to appeal. He originally wanted to find out the news from the Jingzhong Gate and try to exonerate Gu Kai. After all, Gu Kai has been here for more than half a year, and he has contributed a lot to the war and civil affairs on Yidu Road, saying that he flatters his boss and is obsessed with political affairs, Jiang Bin doesn't believe it anyway.
"In the eyes of traitors, Gu has long been listed as a party of the Taishi, and today Gu's suffering is small, I am only worried that the Taishi has encountered an accident, and I ask Mr. to prepare early. Less than the thief has been out of trouble, his ambition is not small, and good at enveloping the minds of fools, if it is powerful, it will be the bane of the great yuan, Yidu Road will be able to kill the thief next year, but I am afraid that the road is still difficult! Gu Kai said slowly.
"Taishi's achievements are shocking the past and the present, and people with lofty ideals in the world are all fascinated by it, even if there is a small trouble in the middle of the night, it is just a grasshopper shaking the tree, and Lord Gu does not need to worry about it. It's just that when he visits Si Mo in Beijing, he has to face his feelings too directly, and Jiang will ask the prince to repair the book and ask for the relationship between the DPRK and China. Liu Thief awarded the head, Yidu Road always has some credit, and he will run for Lord Gu to complain! ”
"Although the thief succeeded to the throne, however, the leaders of the thieves may not be willing to surrender to him sincerely, as long as the officers and troops fight steadily and step by step, they will not give the enemy a chance to take advantage of. There is also a clear stream in the Beijing Division, and although Lord Gu is in trouble, he may not have the opportunity to get out of trouble and clear his grievances! Jiang will tell the prince and Lord Zhuo that Lord Gu's planning and evaluation in Yidu this year will be truthfully reported to Chen Zhongshu. Jiang Bin comforted. He took a blanket from his subordinates, "There is a bag of water and a few dry bags in it, take care of yourself on the road." ”
The two talked, and Jiang Bin tried his best to relieve Gu Kai's worries.
There were escorts to hundreds of households who were finally impatient and came over to urge, Jiang Bin hurriedly handed over the blanket, Gu Kai took it with red eyes, and choked up and sobbed: "Gu Mou only thought of serving the country with loyalty in his life, and he didn't expect the catastrophe to come, only Lord Zhuo, Engong, Shanyang, Zhenzhi and others saw him off, and he could get a few confidants in life without regrets!" ”
"The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the frankness sees the loyal ministers. Those who have wanted to be loyal ministers since ancient times have not been wronged. Master Gu is straightforward, he just wants to have a clear conscience, Jiang admires him to the fullest! ”
Jiang Bin turned around and asked, "This lord, there is still something to ask for!" ”
Jin Shilang asked rhetorically: "What else is the matter?" ”
"Jingzhong only said that he would detain Lord Gu, and he did not explicitly say that he would use a wooden cage to raise people. If you want to go thousands of miles, the prisoner is weak, where can he survive, and ask the adults to use a wooden cage to prison and chain it, okay? ”
After speaking, Jiang Bin took the opportunity of giving a gift to walk into Jin Shilang, took out two Jin Tian, and unconsciously stuffed them into Shilang's hands. The squire only felt that his hand sank, obviously much heavier than Baiyin, and he hesitated for a long time before replying: "Gu Kai is a repeat offender in the imperial court, and the adults in Beijing attach great importance to it, if he dies in the middle of the road, it is indeed a little inappropriate." Just sir. Put the prisoners down, put them in chains, put them in shackles, and put them in wooden cages. ”
Gu Kai was caught in the wooden cage on the cart, his head was stuck out, and it was rare for his feet to reach the surface of the cart, so he had to tiptoe, which would be extremely uncomfortable along the way. As Jiang Bin said, if you go to Beijing for thousands of miles, it is very likely that the frail will not be able to hold on.
Gu Kai couldn't move in the car, and shouted in a dumb voice: "God bless the benevolent father, Gu will repay great kindness in the next life!" ”
Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi bowed to Jiang Bin again and again.
Zhuo Sicheng, as the head of the local people, is too late to avoid suspicion at this time, and it is extremely rare to be able to come out and say a word for him. As for Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi are both Gu Kai's subordinates, if it weren't for the fact that the opponents of the DPRK and China really didn't look down on their weight at this time, and they didn't have the heart to pursue it, maybe the two of them would end up in the same fate at this time.
Jiang Bin has a special status, if it weren't for the convenience of doing things, he wouldn't even accept the position of palace counselor. He benefited from the king's admiration and was able to serve by the king's side. In Yidu Road, all the officials will give him some face. Although this squire serves in Beijing, he has a good understanding of the official style and connections of Yidu Road. Seeing Jiang Bin come forward, he still took care of it to some extent.
Zhuo Sicheng and Jiang Bin watched the prisoner car being escorted away by the guards on the street, and the two sides looked at each other wordlessly and sighed at each other. This Gu Kai is considered to be a square person, but it is a pity that he is dedicated to doing things, in order to quickly exterminate the banditry in Yidu Road, he did not hesitate to ask many local officials, large and small, and some of the officials who were convicted have intricate relationships with the local and Beijing divisions.
Besides, Gu Kai is regarded as a master of the first line, this reminder of Gu Kai before leaving, Jiang Bin shuddered when he thought about it.
"The Taishi is being ordered to march south, and there are no cronies and important ministers in Kyoto to guard it, if it is really Gu Kai's prediction, wouldn't this court be another earth-shaking storm!" Jiang Bin thought silently, and was at a loss for a while.
Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi had already accompanied Gu Kai out of the city with the prisoner car.
At this time, the clouds are dense, the winter wind becomes cold, look at the sky, there will be wind and snow coming, and it is another year of cold winter, I don't know how many springs will be in the coming year?
