Volume 2 The Wind and Rain of the Imperial Capital Chapter 173 Taking Advantage of Xu Chengzong (II)

Romance Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of the prosperous Daming!

As the capital of the Ming Dynasty, although Beijing is only a capital city, but because it covers a very wide area, and has a population of millions, coupled with its special political status, it has an extremely complex and in place public security system, just ordinary can meddle in the city's public security affairs There are no less than four officials.

One is Daxing County, the second is Shuntianfu, the third is the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division that belongs to the whole city, and the fourth is the Imperial History of the Patrol City under the Metropolitan Inspectorate. These four yamen, except for the first two, are not subordinate to each other, and they all have the power to take people from public security, plus the factory guards whose power is above all the divisions, they constitute such a huge and complex system.

However, under decades of friction and cooperation, these yamen have formed a relatively good tacit understanding, and in the event of an emergency, they can also respond according to their own terms of reference. For example, Shuntianfu and Daxing County will give errands to the Wucheng Terracotta Division in many public security incidents, and only when the case occurs near the yamen, or when the people deliberately report it, the two yamen will come forward to deal with it.

And a sudden fire like this, because it is located in Xicheng, there are small half of the cities from Daxing County and Shuntianfu, so it should naturally be handed over to the local Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Division to deal with. Even Xu Chengzong, who only came to Beijing City occasionally, knew this, so when he saw the fire, Lu Zhen rushed over with these subordinate county officials, he felt a little strange.

What is even more strange is that these 20 or so county officials really carried a water dragon for firefighting, as if they had expected such a fire, so they were fully prepared.

Xu Chengzong didn't know if there was such a thing as an uncertain prophet in this world, but he could be sure that a county order would definitely not have such skills. So seeing this, he couldn't help frowning: "Interesting, this Lu County Order is always surprising." ”

Hu Hu on the table also stood up at this time, and looked down condescendingly: "This fire is also strange, and they are even more strange." Xu Gongzi's eyes are like torches, which is admirable. ”

"The boss has won the award, and he just looks strange in the next place, but he can't guess what his idea is." As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance back at the old man behind him.

Hu Hu smiled calmly as if he hadn't noticed his doubts: "Then in Xu Gongzi's opinion, can his plan succeed?" ”

"Well...... look at the people below who have come to the gate of Guangning Bo Mansion and have come into contact with the guards who are obviously a little flustered there, the corners of Xu Chengzong's mouth curled: "If this matter is related to the previous case of Na Lao Shizi, then this Lu County Commander is afraid that he is going to hit a wall." ”

Hu Hu sighed, and looked at Xu Chengzong's gaze with a little more attention. He thought that this young man was just a gentleman who liked to make friends and talk about pomp, but now it seems that the real situation is not as simple as it appears on the surface, no wonder the Duke of Wei in Nanjing is willing to send him to the capital.

At this time, the situation in front of the Guangning Bo Mansion below really changed a little, more than a dozen guards who looked like soldiers lined up, holding spears in front of their own doors, not allowing Lu Zhen and his subordinates to approach, and those county officials could only helplessly stay in front of the door, without any way.

Seeing this, Hu Hui's eyebrows raised, but his heart sank a little. At this time, Xu Chengzong beside him laughed again: "This Lu Jin's courage is indeed a little excessive, he actually dares to lead someone to forcibly break into the Earl's Mansion of Qinfeng, and he doesn't want to think about what his identity is." But his courage is commendable! ”

Hearing the approving meaning between his words, Hu Hu took the opportunity to say: "Then Xu Gongzi is interested in helping him?" After all, you and he have some friendship. ”

"Yes, he also sold the Tianzihao courtyard of Tongzhou Post Station to me that day." Xu Chengzong smiled and nodded: "Now that he is in trouble, it seems reasonable for me to help him?" As he spoke, he glanced at Hu Hu with a smile.

Hu Hu just smiled calmly, then returned to the table, poured himself a glass of wine and tasted it slowly: "This fire is getting bigger and bigger, if you don't let people in quickly, I'm afraid it will affect the house next to you." ”

Xu Chengzong couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and secretly cursed the old fox in his heart, but he still nodded: "The old man can still see that for the sake of the safety of the capital, this son should really help them go in." Otherwise, when the people of the Xicheng Terracotta Division arrive, this fire will spread. With that, he stretched his waist for a long time, flicked his sleeves, and turned and walked towards the staircase.

Seeing this, Hu Hu breathed a sigh of relief. Although he saw the clue, but for some reason, he was willing to help out, so this plan can still be implemented.

At this time, Xu Chengzong, who was about to go downstairs, suddenly stopped and turned around, and said to Hu Hui: "Boss, the son of a daughter can't sit down, so let's leave first." This banquet should be placed on your house, and it is not too convenient to set it up in this kind of restaurant. When this is over, the little nephew will come to visit again. ”

Dropping these words, the young son of the family went downstairs in a puff, but left Hu Hu a little stunned to stay where he was for a long time: "This young man is really not simple, it turns out that he has already seen that the old man has other intentions, and he can endure it all the time." ”

Xu Chengzong rushed downstairs directly, and immediately made the guards who stayed below frightened, and they all stood up in unison: "Childe......"

"Let's go, let's go and help put out the fire in Guangning Bofu." Xu Chengzong waved his hand, rushed out of the restaurant in the first place, and went straight to the mansion where the smoke was billowing out.

The guards wanted to stop but didn't dare, so they had to stride up and quickly rush to Xu Chengzong's side to help him block the people who had fled in all directions because of the fire, so that he would not be hurt by it.

And under the escort of more than a dozen burly and sturdy men like iron towers, Xu Chengzong was able to easily swim against the current in the face of a large number of people, and soon rushed to the gate of Guangning Bo's Mansion. At this time, the situation here has become a little delicate, and people from the two sides are facing each other, and Lu Zhen is still there as if he is persuading bitterly: "...... This fire is about to spread, and if you continue to obstruct it like this, I am afraid that the loss will be great. Can't we people in Daxing County put out fires? Do you have to wait for the people of the Xicheng Terracotta Division to come? ”

The person at the head on the opposite side said stiffly: "This is the meaning above, we understand the kindness of your Daxing County, please go back." We will save this fire ourselves. ”

Lu Zhen smiled wryly, it seemed that he had thought about things simply before. Just now, it was clear that he was going to use this to enter the house, but somehow someone saw through the identity of the Daxing County Yamen, so the other party quickly turned his face, and someone picked up a gun and a stick to block himself.

If he had doubts before, and felt that Tang Qianchuan's one-sided words might not be credible, then now he is eighty or ninety percent sure that there is something wrong with this Guangning Bofu. Otherwise, they would not have reacted like this, and as soon as they knew that they were the Daxing County Ya, they blocked the road so strongly.

But even if you know there's a problem, it's useless to get in. They can't break through the opponent's defense line at all, and now they can only rely on Hu Hui's other arrangement, and I don't know if the eldest young master of the Xu family can come to help.

Just as he was thinking about it, a rather lazy and arrogant voice came from behind him: "What's the matter?" There is a fire going on inside, and you don't go in to put out the fire, but you are staring at it with big eyes. ”

Hearing this, Lu Jin's face immediately showed a hint of joy, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Xu Chengzong, who had met once, quite lazy and brought someone over. The guards in front of him were stunned, although they didn't remember the identity of this prince, but just looking at his arrogant and domineering appearance, and the guards who followed behind him who were far more capable than himself, he could know that his identity was very unusual.

After walking up to Lu Zhen and standing still, Xu Chengzong smiled and swept his eyes over everyone: "What are you doing?" Still don't let go of the road and go in to put out the fire? ”

"Dare to ask who this son is?" The escort at the head did not dare to slack off, and asked very politely.

"My son-in-law is the brother of Wei Guogong, and he has come to your Earl's Mansion to eat and drink before, what's the matter, do you want to stop him from going in to put out the fire?" Now that his son-in-law has spoken, no matter what his intentions are, as subordinates, they should help implement it.

As soon as they heard that the person who came was actually the son of the Duke of Wei's family, these guards, who were quite strong just now, immediately softened. Jokes, what are their identities, let alone them, even their own uncles don't dare to offend this young master at will. Although they are both nobles, Wei Guogong is so high-minded, and Guangningbo is now just a nobleman who has received an idle job and has limited real power.

Taking advantage of their hesitation because of their fame, Xu Chengzong waved his hand, said a word, and walked in first. Now, those Bofu guards can only give way, who dares to block him from entering?

And this gave Lu Zhen a chance, and they also followed those Xu family guards straight to the gate of Bofu, of course, they still shouted a few times to put out the fire very professionally, it seems that they are really here to put out the fire.

Xu Chengzong opened the way into the Earl's Palace, glanced back at Lu Jin, who came with him, and said with a smile: "Lu County Order, I didn't expect that it would be such a time for us to meet again, this time I will be the master and I will pay you back the love of the day." ”

Lu Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he understood, obviously this son of the Xu family is not so easy to fool, but why would he come to help when he knew that there was an inside story?
