The Ming Dynasty attached great importance to the control of military power, and implemented a policy of civilian officials leading troops and eunuchs serving as military supervisors. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There is no doubt that this is a national policy of advocating literature and suppressing military force.

Tracing back to the source, the source of all this is actually on Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin.

In that year, Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao mutinied, and the yellow robe was added, and then he pacified the world, ended the war of the five dynasties, and established the Great Song Dynasty------

During the Five Dynasties, the world was in turmoil, the warlords fought for many years, the phenomenon of military dictatorship and feudal town division was very serious, and Zhao Kuangyin's own throne was obtained from the mutiny.

In order to change this situation and prevent the army from mutiny, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he played the famous "cup of wine to release the military power", and later expanded the scope and functions of the imperial examination.

Since then, the status of scholars has risen in a straight line, which continued until the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty.

It was also under the vigorous reform of the Song Dynasty that the imperial examination system reached an unprecedented glorious situation. After experiencing the middle and fall of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, which once again brought it to its heyday.

The situation of suppressing military force with literature has also been formed.

At the local level, the military and political affairs were controlled by the governors of the provinces. But Lord Futai still has to control the affairs of the three divisions, and it is inevitable that there will be times when he is weak, so he has to arrange someone to assist him in taking charge of the military and politics, right?

As a result, the imperial court stationed eunuchs in various places to exercise the power of supervising the army.

The duties and powers of the eunuchs, of course, do not stop there.

Usually, they also have two special missions: one is to serve as the eyes and ears of the imperial court, to inform the situation in various places at any time; The second is to purchase local tributes for the royal family and get some rare treasures to "honor" the emperor.

As the house slaves around the emperor, these eunuchs are naturally able to be powerful and blessed when they go to the locality, and even the magistrates have to respect them.

There is no way, in a sense, these eunuchs stationed in the local area also belong to the "Qincha" with the emperor's order, and they cannot be easily offended.

The eunuch named Liu Lang in Henan was extremely greedy. However, he also has an advantage, that is, once he receives the money, he will definitely do practical things for you.

Zhang Chengzhi was sentenced to be confiscated into the army, and now the case has already been Shen Xiang to the prosecutor's office, and he only needs to wait for the case file to be delivered to the Beijing Division, and it can be distributed after being reviewed by the Criminal Department.

Zhang He is also powerless about this, after all, his backstage is not tough enough, and it is difficult to fish out his son. But what he didn't expect was that after Yang Tongju took care of him, he actually found someone who was willing to rescue.

This person is Liu Lang, the eunuch guarding the town.

When Zhang He heard the news, he was naturally ecstatic, and immediately rushed to Fucheng with Yang Tongju.

Of course, you have to pay attention to skills when giving money to people, and you can't send it blatantly, otherwise it is tantamount to a kind of death-seeking behavior. In the entire Xiangfu County, there are many high-ranking officials who hold real power, and there is no need for the Feng Xianguan to come forward to impeach him, and others will be able to refer to you.

Once the stolen goods are obtained, whether you are the emperor's domestic slave or not, you have to accept the sanctions of the national law.

Liu Lang's mansion is located in the Xinling Fang of the first compartment of the left wing of the inner city, and the east is the Daxiangguo Temple, which is a prime location close to the Zhou Wangfu.

Walking a short distance to the north out of Fang Lane, there is the lively and prosperous Tianhan Bridge, which is known as one of the eight views of Bianliang, where the "Bright Moon of the State Bridge" is located.

The mule cart was moving fast on the street, and it could be seen how anxious the owner of the car was at this time.

The car turned left and went up Xiangguosi Street, and soon ran past Daxiangguoji and stopped on the street at the entrance of Xinlingfang. Yang Tongjuan, who was dressed in civilian clothes, and Zhang He got out of the car and walked inside together.

Seeing Zhang He's excitement with a nervous look, Yang Tongju smiled and comforted: "Brother Zhang doesn't need to be too nervous, this Liu Zhen guard is not bad, as long as our 'etiquette' is fulfilled, this matter will not be difficult to do." ”

Zhang He nodded lightly, and while walking forward, he opened his mouth to thank him: "Thanks to Brother Yang for doing everything for me this time, Zhang He will definitely remember it------"

"Alas------"

Yang Tongju sighed softly and interrupted him: "Don't say more to me if you're polite, remember in the future, don't provoke Lu Cheng again." ”

"I understand." Zhang He nodded approvingly.

Out of the restaurant, Lu Cheng felt a little confused for a while.

In the private room, facing Wang Qiong's threat, he could straighten his waist and say some righteous and awe-inspiring words, but the so-called "the state has national laws, and the family has family rules", at this time, I feel a little ridiculous when I think about it.

In this age of human rule, the law was originally designed for the common people, and the real magnates did not need to obey these rules.

I don't have any evidence at hand, and according to the power of Wang Qiong, I guess I won't seriously investigate this case. Jin Yiwei's side couldn't help much, just relying on his own ability, how easy was it to find conclusive evidence to convict the dynasty?

This is not to say that everyone in the entire Kaifeng Mansion is afraid of Wang Qiong, but few people will be stupid enough to offend Wang Qiong for a person who doesn't want to do it.

"Alas, I just don't know what kind of person this Futai Lord is------"

While thinking about it, Lu Cheng carefully checked the information about Sun Xu in his mind, which was also the reason why he dared to resist Wang Qiong's coercion.

After all, the governor is the biggest official in the whole of Henan.

Now Lu Cheng only hopes that Sun Xu is a "strong order" who is not afraid of power, and Hai Gangfeng, who is known as "Hai Qingtian", ------ at this moment, it seems that Lord Hai Ruihai has not been born yet?

In fact, just now in the private room, Lu Cheng had already called up Sun Xu's information in his mind. It's just that he was in full swing at that time, and he was fighting with Wang Qiong, and he didn't have time to carefully study Sun Xu's life for a while.

Standing in front of the carriage, Lu Cheng, who was studying carefully with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes suddenly, and really startled Ding Hu, who was silently looking at him on the side.

"Father-in-law------ son-in-law?"

Ding Hu was surprised to find that Lu Cheng's gaze was blazing when he looked at him, and the afterglow of the sunset hanging in the sky was not as bright as the look in his eyes at this moment.

Lu Cheng smiled and ordered, "Let's go, let's go to the governor's yamen!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he quickly boarded the wheel. Just as he was about to get into the carriage, he caught a glimpse of a man hurrying not far away, and he couldn't help but stagnate.

Lu Cheng had seen this person, who was the man who ran to deliver a message to him yesterday.

He turned around, looked at the man who had already run in front of him, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Master Lu, the situation has changed, Old Pavilion Master Zhang went to Xinlingfang."

"Xinlingfang?"

Lu Cheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Who did he go there to see?" ”

"Lord Townguard, Liu Lang!"

The man was worried that he didn't know the energy of the eunuch, so he hurriedly added: "My son-in-law said that if Liu Lang is willing to come forward, that person will be saved." ”

Lu Cheng gasped, he didn't expect that the matter on his side had not been resolved, and Zhang Chengzhi was about to get out again, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight!

"You get in the car and tell me the details."

Lu Cheng raised his eyes and swept around, then gave a command to the man, then turned around and lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

The car started slowly and headed towards the governor's yamen.

In the carriage, after Lu Cheng listened to the details of the incident, he frowned and silently thought about countermeasures.

After a while, he beckoned to the man sitting opposite, and the other party immediately leaned his ear over.

After leaning over and whispering in the other party's ear for a while, Lu Cheng sat up straight, reached out and patted the other party's shoulder and said, "Hurry up and bring the words back to your son-in-law, he will have a great reward for you!" ”

immediately shouted to stop Ding Hu and let the other party get out of the car.

"The little one understands!"

The man arched his hand to him with a red face, turned around and got out of the carriage and rushed back to the martial arts hall to report the news.

At this time, the car happened to stop on the side of the street opposite Xinlingfang, and the man was so excited that he forgot that Zhang He was still in this area.

He hurried forward, not noticing the gaze staring at him.

After Yang Tongju took a few steps, he found that Zhang He didn't follow, so he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "What's wrong, Brother Zhang?" ”

"Oh, it's okay!"

Zhang He shook his head, but he was very puzzled in his heart.

He had already recognized that it was Lu Cheng's car, and the man who got out of the car seemed to have some impressions, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

------

------

The car continued to move forward, and it didn't take long to arrive at the governor's yamen.

Compared with the prefect's yamen and the political envoy's yamen, the governor's yamen looks more majestic and majestic. The master here is the number one in the entire Henan at the moment, and he is above the three divisions.

It's just that this Sun Ministry will help himself?

After straightening the crown clothes on his body, Lu Cheng strode forward and said to Menzi: "Excuse me, please send my eldest brother to go in for me, and say that it is Lu Cheng, a student of the government, who has something important to ask to see Lord Futai." ”

Menzi frowned and looked at him from top to bottom. Then he took the famous thorn he handed over, and after carefully examining it, he asked out loud: "You are the head of the Lu case?" ”

"Don't dare to be, it's just some false praise." Lu Cheng hurriedly arched his hand again and smiled modestly.

Just kidding, the seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, he is now asking for others, of course, he can't put on a high profile. If you really offend the person in front of you, you can't even see Governor Sun's face, then it's really over.

As soon as Menzi saw that Lu Cheng was so humble, he didn't make it difficult for him anymore, nodded and went back to report.

Standing outside and waiting quietly for a while, the man came out again and invited: "Head Lu, Lord Futai, please come in and come with me." ”

"Thank you, big brother."

Lu Cheng thanked him again and walked in with the door.

Sun Xu met Lu Cheng in the second hall, after all, the two had a relationship, and they both had some friendship with Lord Zhou. Therefore, he didn't put on any official show to Lu Cheng, and he was even exempted from kneeling.

"Head Lu, why do you have time today to come to the old man's governor's yamen?" Sun Xu said politely, and beckoned Lu Cheng to sit down, and an errand officer also sent fragrant tea at this time.

"Adults are busy with official business, students shouldn't come over to disturb, and I hope that adults Haihan!"

Lu Cheng gave him a polite sentence before turning to the topic: "The student came here today------ in fact, he has something important to tell the adults!" ”

"Oh?"

Sun Xu glanced at him quietly and motioned for him to continue.

"It's such an adult, and the student accidentally got the news------"

Lu Cheng was not polite, and immediately said that Zhang He was going to bribe Liu Zhenshou in front of Sun Xu, and at the end he emphasized earnestly: "My lord, this wind can't last long!" The students have heard that you are upright, and I hope you can make decisions for the students and uphold justice for the people of Li on our side! ”

This flattering remark came out, but it failed to achieve too desirable results.

Sun Xu squinted his eyes slightly, looked at him with a smile for a moment, and then asked out loud: "What does the head of the Lu case think this official should do to uphold justice for the people of Li on this side?" ”

Lu Cheng couldn't help but stir up, and hurriedly replied respectfully: "The adult's words are really torturous to the student, how dare the student teach the adult to do things?" ”

Syllable------

Sun Xu suddenly got up, so frightened that Lu Cheng almost knelt on the ground, just because he was angry at his deliberate use. Unexpectedly, the other party blurted out a sentence that made him stunned.

"How can this be true, this Liu Zhenshou dares to ignore the laws of the imperial court, openly accept bribes, bend the law for personal gain, and should be killed!"

When Lu Cheng heard this, he was really confused by the second monk, and said in his heart, "My lord, which one are you singing?"

Sun Xu was still calm and calm, but at the moment he was furious, and the style of painting changed too quickly, and Lu Cheng, who came back to his senses, was quite speechless about this: "I said Lord Sun, Governor Sun, Sun Minyuan------ you have such good acting skills, why don't you go to the Oscars to receive the award?" Otherwise, wouldn't you be blind to such a good talent? ”

"Hehe------"

Sun Xugan laughed twice, sat back on the Taishi chair, and said with a straight face: "Is the source of the head of the Lu case reliable?" ”

"Reliable, absolutely reliable!"

Lu Cheng nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then added: "Adults should know that students have another identity." ”

Of course Sun Xu didn't believe it, he got the news from Jinyiwei.

Factory Guard, Factory Guard, is talking about the East Factory and Jinyi Guard, these two have always worn a pair of pants. The eunuchs in various places are mostly spies from the East Factory, and it is strange that the Jinyi Guard will collect the news of their bribery.

However, he did not expose Lu Cheng's lies in person, but asked again: "The head of the Lu case came over today, I'm afraid it's not just for this one thing, right?" ”

"Uh------"

Lu Cheng was shocked, and then relieved, his little bit of caution couldn't hide from these people who had been officials for many years. At that moment, he had no choice but to say frankly: "I can't hide anything from you, adult, so the student will tell the truth------

After listening to his narration, Sun Xu fell into deep thought.

After a long silence, he raised his head and said, "If everything you say is true, this official can make decisions for you, but this matter is very important, how can this official just listen to your words and act hastily?" ”

"This ------"

Lu Cheng really didn't have a problem this time, he came to Sun Xu, but in fact, he just had the idea of trying it out, and he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

After all, this kind of thing involves the whole body, and it is obviously not a wise move to move Wang Qiong for himself. If one is not good, Sun Xu himself may fall on his head, not to mention losing the position of governor of Henan, and he will completely offend Wang Qiong because of this.

In officialdom, it's not a good thing to offend too many people.

Seeing the embarrassed look on his face, Sun Xu suddenly smiled again: "But ------ is a major case of hired murder, how can there be a reason not to investigate it to the end?" ”
