Chapter 216 Public Security
Wang Yuan stepped forward to greet Yang Shenjin, Yang Shenjin motioned for Wang Yuan to sit down, and said with a gloomy face: "Deputy Envoy Wang, you will really enjoy the blessings, don't care about the case, yesterday was just a few quarrels, you can't really live up to the grace." ”
Wang Yuan didn't know what he meant, and said with a haha: "Where did Yang Shangshu say it, I'm not angry about yesterday's bickering. Those who can work harder, Yang Shangshu has rich experience in handling cases, if I follow the mixing, it will add to the chaos, Yang Shangshu will work harder, don't worry about these with me. ”
Yang Shenjin's face was a little pale, Wang Yuan's words could be regarded as a sycophant in disguise, and he finally didn't meet him, and his mood was much better.
"I don't mind doing more on this case, but there can't be chaos in Beihai County during the investigation, do you know what happened in the city this morning?"
Wang Yuan said: "Do you mean that the bandits entered the city last night and looted the property of several families?" Early in the morning, he heard rumors on the street, and wanted to ask if it was true or not. ”
Yang Shen frowned and said, "Naturally, it's true, and it also hurt three lives." Early in the morning, the three bodies were carried to the yamen. When your deputy envoy was still lying on the throne, I was already hesitant about this matter. ”
Wang Yuan ignored the sarcasm in his words and asked, "Have you ever caught the bandits?" ”
Yang Shenjin said coldly: "Do you think it's as simple as catching a mouse and grasshopper?" Entering the city and banditry, murder and robbery, this is an extremely serious case. This Li Yong doesn't know what Beihai County is governing, the law and order are so erosive, and such mediocre officials don't know how to be reused. And it will be recorded in his file, and it will be his fault. ”
Wang Yuan was speechless, and apologized deeply to Li Yong in his heart, what he did made Li Yong carry the black pot, and he was a little unhappy. However, Li Yong himself is already mired in the quagmire, and it is nothing to carry an extra black pot.
"It's just an ordinary occasional case, but what the official is most worried about is that someone did it on purpose. It must be known that you and I came to Beihai County to investigate the case are known to the world, and these bandits came to the city to kill and rob at this time, which the official thinks is very unusual. Yang Shen continued.
Wang Yuan was a little surprised, Yang Shenjin was indeed not in vain, and being able to take this into account showed that he was still quite shrewd and cautious.
"No, when Yang Shangshu said this, how could I feel that the cold hairs on my body stood up, as if they meant it deliberately."
Yang Shenjin glanced at Wang Yuan with contempt and said, "It's not impossible to do it deliberately. You must know that this is Beihai County, and Li Yong has been here for five years, which can be regarded as a big tree with deep roots. Knowing that we came to investigate Li Yong's case, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will take the risk to help him. Maybe someone did it on purpose to give us a dismount. Maybe their target is one of you and me, but they didn't succeed for a while. Nothing is impossible in this world, and we must be fully prepared to do so, so I have ordered you to come and discuss this matter. ”
Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Yang Shangshu, please command." ”
Yang Shenjin said: "Don't dare to give orders, the case has reached a critical time, and the questioning can be completed today, and all the officials involved in the case can be formally tried in court tomorrow." The more this time, the more we can't make mistakes, and we can't let people sabotage the trial. Li Yong is not suitable for managing the affairs of Beihai County at the moment, I have to concentrate on handling the case and have no time to be distracted, since you have no intention of investigating the case, can you please preside over the public security of Beihai County during this time, put an end to bandits or other people deliberately creating chaos in the city, and ensure the smooth progress of the case. ”
Wang Yuan praised Yang Shenjin's flexible brain in his heart, it turned out that he wanted to show him the doorman, and he did his job wholeheartedly. Not only was he excluded from the case, but he became an errand runner who did chores for him.
"This matter is extremely important, this official does not ask you to find out the culprit of today's incident, nor does he ask you to exterminate the bandits or anything, I only hope that you can ensure the security and stability of Beihai City during our investigation. We can't make people messy or bad for us. This will be of great help to the case, and to be able to do this is to contribute to the case. At the end of the case, the official will give a strong compliment to this in the fold. ”
Yang Shenjin tried his best to persuade Wang Yuan to accept this errand, first, he was really worried that someone would obstruct the investigation of the case, although Wang Yuan and himself were not on the same road, but if someone entered the city to kill people and create chaos, it was obvious that Wang Yuan and himself were on the same position, and Wang Yuan would not want the case to be unable to unfold, which was a common dereliction of duty by the two.
Second, Yang Shenjin didn't want to see Wang Yuan shaking his hands leisurely on the side, and he didn't want him to meddle in the case, so finding something for Wang Yuan to do and tie his hands and feet was a good way. And if the law and order in Beihai County deteriorates further, it will be an opportunity to suppress him by himself, and he can turn around and trumpet how incompetent Wang Yuan is.
In short, this matter is beneficial and harmless to Yang Shenjin, and Yang Shenjin also came up with this method after careful consideration. He was a little worried that Wang Yuan would refuse, if Wang Yuan resolutely refused, he would not have a good way.
But his worries were obviously unnecessary, and Wang Yuan actually agreed quickly: "It turns out that this is this matter, and there is no shirk of responsibility." This kind of thing happened in Beihai County, and it happened when you and I were in Beihai County, which was obviously a provocation. Yang Shangshu rest assured, this matter will be handed over to me. ”
Yang Shenjin was overjoyed and said: "Okay, Deputy Envoy Wang has the courage to take responsibility, which is admirable." You and I concentrate on investigating the case, and the other ensures the stability of order in the North Sea, which can be described as a perfect combination. So let's do our part and do our own thing. ”
Wang Yuan said: "Yang Shangshu, since I am responsible for the security of the city, can I have the right to mobilize the soldiers of this county?" ”
Yang Shenjin thought for a while and said, "Haven't you seen Si Bing join the army Liu Dehai?" You only have to consult with him to call on his troops, and if he agrees, it will be fine. ”
Wang Yuan left the county office with a smile on his face, and Yang Shenjin sent him out of the door of the yamen lobby.
The reason why Wang Yuan took on this errand was not only because he knew that someone had deliberately sabotaged the investigation and made nonsense, because it was he who did the sabotage.
In addition, there is another biggest reason that prompted Wang Yuan to take over this errand: after hanging up the name of public security, Wang Yuan's actions in the city will be more free, and he can even do what he wants to do in the name of public security. Maybe it was Yang Shenjin's negligence, maybe he didn't realize this at all, or maybe Yang Shenjin didn't think that Wang Yuan would bring him any kind of threat at all, so he stupidly gave Wang Yuan the power to move freely in the entire Beihai City.
What's more, as long as Liu Dehai is not difficult to deal with, Wang Yuan has almost all the military forces in Beihai County, and suddenly reverses the situation of insufficient force around him. If necessary, when he had to take risks, Wang Yuan also had a better chance of winning.
Of course, the premise is to get Liu Dehai as a person. In the case of Beihai County, Liu Dehai, who led the 500 regiments to train soldiers and horses, joined the army and was definitely the boss of the snake in Beihai County at this moment.
In the north of Beihai City, the Beihai County regimental training camp surrounded by a tall wall is very imposing, two watchdog towers stand one east and one west, and the soldiers on the lookout hold bows and arrows to guard the huge camp gate made of two-layer logs. The thick flagpole in front of the camp gate is as high as fifteen zhang, and a huge leopard flag is waving in the wind.
Wang Yuan rode a horse and took Wang Dahei to dozens of steps in front of the barracks, and the soldiers on the arrow tower sounded the gong from a distance to warn that someone had already wound their bows and arrows against Wang Yuan and Wang Dahei. In the military stronghold, once the idlers and others do not listen to the dissuasion and enter the warning area, the soldiers can shoot them at any time.
More than a dozen soldiers appeared on the top of the wall above the camp gate, looking towards Wang Yuan and Wang Dahei, and asking loudly. Wang Dahei grinned and shouted loudly: "My master wants to see your Liu join the army." ”
The soldiers at the door looked at each other, not knowing what the black slave was calling.
Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What is my master?" Tell them that I am Wang Yuan, the deputy envoy of the Qin Order. ”
Wang Dahei hurriedly shouted again at the top of his throat, and the soldiers heard it clearly, they all knew that the imperial court's investigation envoy was in Beihai City, and yesterday's head of his family was called for questioning, and today the deputy envoy for investigation came again, obviously not for nothing, so he immediately went to report.
After a while, the camp gate creaked open by more than a dozen soldiers, and Liu Dehai went out of the camp gate with seven or eight men fully armed. Wang Yuan got off the horse and bowed, then Liu Dehai had a good impression of Wang Yuan, haha smiled and greeted him, the greetings were over, and Wang Yuan was warmly invited into the barracks.
The barracks is basically a huge school yard with no grass, and on the north side are several rows of houses, which should be the barracks of the soldiers and the public house of Liu Dehai.
Everyone walked on the school field and saw a group of dozens of cavalrymen riding and sprinting, and the shouts were dusty and imposing. Rows of spears followed the horse's sprint, picking up the upright straw men on the tips of their spears, spinning and throwing them into the air and falling heavily to the ground, splashing dust in the sky.
Seeing that Wang Yuan was fascinated, Liu Dehai touched his beard and said with a smile: "Deputy Envoy Wang, can my soldiers still make it?" ”
Wang Yuan smiled: "It's not bad." Really fun. ”
Liu Dehai frowned and said: "This is cavalry charging training, but it's not a fun thing." ”
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "In my opinion, this kind of training is just fun, and the enemy is not a scarecrow, standing lightly and still is picked up by you in the air, this kind of training has limited effect." ”
Liu Dehai's faces changed color, and they all showed displeasure.
