Chapter 658: The Governor's Policy
Notices to rectify the law and order in Chang'an City were posted all over the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, and the officers and soldiers of the patrol department were also sent to the four city gates, and all the officials of the Yamen of the Xi'an Prefect were dispatched, wandering on the streets, their eyes were aimed at the hands and waists of passers-by, and when they found that they were carrying weapons, they unceremoniously stepped forward to interrogate.
Chang'an City even understands the rats in the burrow, and Chang'an City has begun to investigate strictly again!
This scene can't help but remind the people in Chang'an City of Chongzhen's four years of strict investigation, that time, the former Shaanxi political participation Qian Yongtai was killed, and the hooligans and ruffians in Chang'an City don't know how many were arrested and put in prison, and the terrifying ransom alone was prohibitive, and they vowed to behave in a proper manner from now on.
Outside the east gate of Chang'an City, a small banner of a brocade guard swaggered with four brocade guards, talking and laughing and preparing to enter the city.
A sentry officer of the Patrol Division beckoned to stop the five people, looked at the waist knives of the five brocade guards, and asked in a deep voice, "Stop, who are you?" ”
Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi was stunned by the question for a while, and it took a while to realize what the sentry of the patrol division was asking. couldn't help but be happy, proudly pointed to the iconic brocade guard uniform and the embroidered spring knife on his waist, and shouted arrogantly: "Blind your dog's eyes?!" Can't even recognize the outfit of our brocade guard?! ”
When the four brocade-clothed guards heard this, they laughed along.
The sentry officer of the patrol department looked slightly gloomy when he heard this, pulled out a notice from his arms, looked at it, waved behind him, and shouted: "These people are illegally carrying weapons into the city, and their appearance is suspicious!" Come on, grab it! ”
As the sentry's words landed, the soldiers of the Patrol Division, who had been waiting at the gate of the city for a long time, rushed forward. pounced viciously, and tied up the five Jinyi guards in a few clicks! snatched the knife from his waist.
Jin Yiwei was shocked. Xiaoqi struggled and shouted, "What are you doing! We are the people of Jinyi Wei Xi'an Thousand Households! How dare you touch me! ”
Hearing this, the sentry snorted and sneered, "On the orders of the governor." Chang'an City will strictly investigate all lawbreakers from now on! ”
Xiaoqi shouted, "We're Jinyiwei!" Where are the outlaws! I, I have the waist card of the brocade guard on my waist as proof! You've caught the wrong person! ”
The sentry officer smiled coldly and shouted, "I'm sorry, the order this officer has received is to strictly investigate all those who bring weapons into the city!" If you have anything to say, go to prison and explain it again! After that, the sentry officer smiled coldly and waved his hand: "Take it away!" ”
Seeing this, Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi shouted angrily: "You fucking thing." You dare to touch our brocade guards! ”
The sentinel ignored it, took a sip, and ordered the five brocade guards to be escorted away like flies.
The Jinyi Guard Yamen on the East Street of Chang'an City, suddenly the main gate opened, and a hundred Jinyi guards went out with more than 20 Jinyi guards and ran in the direction of the East City Gate.
The sound of horses' hooves all the way alarmed the pedestrians of the whole street, and a farmer carrying a load of vegetables was knocked down by the mount of the hundred households because he was unable to dodge. fell out, fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, and the two loads of greens were also sprinkled all over the ground.
Seeing this, Jin Yiwei and the others not only did not slow down. Instead, he laughed and continued to run forward.
Approaching the east gate, Baihu saw that there seemed to be more officers and soldiers guarding on both sides than usual, and he didn't care. Lao Yuan shouted loudly: "Jinyiwei went out of the city to handle the case!" Get out of the way! ”
A group of brocade guards behind the hundred households followed and shouted loudly: "The brocade guards are out of the city, and the idlers are avoiding!" ”
A series of shouts. The brocade guards did not mean to slow down, and continued to gallop towards the east city gate. According to the old rules. When the officers and soldiers defending the city and the common people heard that it was the notorious Jinyi guards, they would generally quickly get out of the way.
Jin Yiwei passed by, and everyone avoided it, this is the glory of Jin Yiwei.
The above is a general situation, but the unexpected finally appeared. I saw that the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate saw that it was the Jinyi guards who were coming over on horseback, not only did they not mean to get out of the way, but shouted instead, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city quickly moved two rows of deer and horses at the city gate under the command of a general and stopped them in the middle of the road. Moreover, the officers and soldiers of the brigade rushed out of the barracks on both sides, holding bright weapons in their hands, and surrounded the brocade guards.
The distance of 100 meters was reached in a blink of an eye, and Baihu exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly tightened the reins of the horse, and more than 20 brocade guards followed closely behind him cursed loudly, and each reined in his horse.
The brocade guard was well-trained, and even under such a rush, he was able to stop his mount before he could hit the repulsor.
"Bastard! What are you doing?! Baihu sat on horseback, holding a whip in one hand, pointing at the current patrol commander and scolding.
The general manager looked at the Jinyi Wei Baihu, smiled mockingly, and shouted in a deep voice: "Non-Shaanxi officers and soldiers dare to bring weapons in and out of Chang'an City!" Taken! ”
"Yes!" The hundreds of officers and soldiers of the patrol division behind him shouted loudly and rushed forward in unison.
"Bold!" Baihu was furious, pulled out the embroidered spring knife on his waist, and shouted: "Jinyi Wei Baihu is here, who dares to be presumptuous?!" The twenty brocade guards behind him saw that the hundred households leading the team pulled out their knives, and they couldn't help but follow suit, drew their knives in their hands, and looked fiercely at the officers and soldiers of the patrol division around them.
Seeing this, the general of the patrol department retreated quickly, then looked at the brocade guard, smiled evilly, and shouted: "The suspect dares to resist arrest with an arm!" Give me arrows! ”
Hearing the general of the patrol department say this, the face of the Jinyi guard suddenly changed, and when he looked up, he saw that behind the officers and soldiers of the patrol division of the brigade, the two teams of archers were loosening the bowstring, and there was a buzzing sound, and a rain of arrows went towards the Jinyi guard.
Under the rain of arrows, the brocade guards could not avoid it, and they were hit by arrows one after another, falling from their horses to the ground, screaming again and again. Jinyi Wei Baihu was hit by an arrow in his waist, and when he fell to the ground, he couldn't believe it! The Jinyi guard, who has always been high, will even be attacked by ordinary officers and soldiers! And it was an attack in broad daylight.
Baihu was shocked, and at the same time a little puzzled, what did the officers and soldiers of the patrol division mean by resisting arrest with weapons? When will Jin Yiwei become the target of arrest? It has always been the only one for Jinyiwei to arrest others!
The officers and men of the Patrol Division were not idle at all, and a round of arrows rained down, waving their hands. Hundreds of soldiers from the Patrol Division rushed up and couldn't help but say. He tied up a group of brocade guards who fell to the ground and screamed, and escorted them away. Many brocade guards don't know what's going on. Asked Jinyi Wei Baihu loudly: "Lord Baihu, this ...... What the hell is going on here?! ”
Baihu hissed and inhaled cool air and roared, "Don't ask me! I don't know! ”
Similar situations were staged in various places in Chang'an City, and the Jinyi guards outside were arrested one after another, and the news finally couldn't be concealed and returned to the Jinyi Wei Yamen.
Peng Jianghai, a thousand households of Jinyi Wei Xi'an, heard the report of his subordinates, and was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his seat, stared at the Jinyi Wei who reported the news, and said, "What did you say?!" Our people were caught? Who would dare to be so bold? Dare to catch the brocade guard! ”
The brocade guard who reported the news said: "Lord Hui, it is a person from the Yamen and the Patrol Department of the Xi'an Prefect. ”
Syllable! Peng Qianhu took the case. Furious: "It's the other way around!" Where are our people being held? ”
"I heard that he was imprisoned in the prefect's yamen."
Peng Qianhu got up angrily, took off the knife hanging there from the wall, and said to a brocade-clothed guard Baihu on the side: "Lu Zhi, bring people, and follow this official to the prefect's yamen to ask for people!" ”
Lu Zhi, who is also a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, is the person who greeted Xu Liang at the gate of Jinyi Wei Ya two days ago. Lu Zhi is an old man in Jinyi Wei Xi'an, and his karmic ability is outstanding, but he has no backstage. When the official rose to the position of 100 households, he stopped.
Lu Baihu listened, but his face was worried, and he said to Peng Qianhu: "Lord Qianhu." The Patrol Department and the Xi'an Mansion have no reason for nothing, why did they arrest the people of Jinyiwei? Could there be any misunderstanding? You must know that the Patrol Division is a person from the Shaanxi Governor's Yamen, and there was a conflict with the Patrol Division. It's hard to explain in front of the governor. ”
Peng Qianhu listened and looked at Lu Baihu with contempt. Snorted coldly and said, "Lu Baihu." The face of the Jinyi Wei Xi'an Office has been lost to you! The prefect's yamen arrested the people of Jinyiwei, this is really the first time I have heard of it in the Ming Dynasty! After that, Peng Qianhu shouted in an unquestionable tone: "Take our people and go to the prefect's yamen!" ”
Lu Baihu had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick up all the hands in the Jinyi Wei Yamen, except for those who went out on business and did not return, there were more than 200 people in the Jinyi Wei Yamen at this time. Peng Qianhu took up more than 200 brocade guards, brought bows and arrows, wound arrows, knives out of sheaths, and went straight to the yamen of the Xi'an prefect with murderous spirit.
When the pedestrians on the road saw such a large-scale Jinyi guard dispatching, they couldn't help but widen their eyes, dodged from a distance, and followed curiously, wanting to see what was going on.
Peng Qianhu rushed to the Yamen of the Xi'an Prefect, and saw from a distance that the door of the Prefect's Yamen creaked and closed, and there was not a single official guarding the door.
The brigade of brocade guards came to the gate of the Yamen of the Xi'an Prefect, and Peng Qianhu looked at the closed gate and motioned to his subordinates to call the door. A brocade guard stepped forward and slammed the door: "Open the door!" Jinyi Wei Qianhu came to handle the case! Open the door! ”
However, Ren Najinyiwei slapped the door and his hands were sore, and the door of the Xi'an Prefect's Yamen was still tightly closed, without any response or intention to open.
Peng Qianhu sneered: "Good Qi Chu, did he think that if he closed the door, the official would have no way to take him?" Stupidity! Come on, knock the door open to this thousand households! ”
Lu Zhi, who came with Peng Qianhu, was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand and shouted: "Lord Qianhu, don't do it!" ”
"How?" Peng Qianhu glared at Lu Baihu.
Lu Baihu gritted his teeth, stomped on his feet, and didn't care that his words would offend the boss in front of him, and shouted bluntly: "My lord, our Jinyiwei and Xi'an Mansion are both in Chang'an City, and if you look down and don't see you when you look up, it's not good to stiffen the relationship." Besides, the prefect of Qi is the governor of the people! ”
"Get the hell out of here! Rubbish! Peng Qianhu scolded, pushed Lu Baihu away, and then ordered to bang on the door again, and suddenly, Peng Qianhu paused.
The sound of dull footsteps sounded from the streets on both sides, from far and near! Peng Qianhu turned his head to look and saw that on both sides of the street in front of the Yamen of the Xi'an Prefect, a team of officers and soldiers from the Patrol Division were running over with neat steps. The spears in the hands of the officers and men of the patrol division stood up diagonally, densely packed, and it was terrifying to look at.
Lu Baihu's eyes widened and he saw clearly the two people riding horses in front of the officers and soldiers of the patrol division of the brigade, one was the commander of the patrol department, Tietou, and the other was actually Xu Liang, the governor of Shaanxi.
Lu Baihu's face turned green, looked at Peng Qianhu, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Qianhu...... It's the Governor's ......"
Peng Qianhu snorted angrily: "It's useless." Then he pulled out Lu Baihu, pressed the knife in his hand, and stood at the forefront of the brocade guards in the direction of the officers and soldiers of the patrol division, and looked at Xu Liang coldly.
Xu Liang sat on the horse, looked at Peng Qianhu, and asked loudly: "Peng Qianhu, what do you want to do with your troops to surround the Yamen of the Xi'an Prefect?" ”
Peng Qianhu sneered: "I heard that the people from the prefect's yamen arrested my Jinyi guard, and the official didn't understand the reason, and the official was about to ask the prefect of Qi to understand." ”
Xu Liang said: "If you want to ask the reason, the official can answer you." Recently, the Patrol Department and the prefect's yamen are strictly investigating the lawless people who carry weapons without permission in Chang'an City! I think most of your Jinyi guards are carrying weapons, and your attitude is too unfriendly, so you will be suspected by the people of the Patrol Department and the prefect's yamen. However, Peng Qianhu didn't have to worry, once the matter was clarified, the Qi Governor's Mansion would soon release him. Xu Liang looked at Peng Qianhu and said in a quiet tone: "It's nothing, Peng Qianhu should go back with your people first, so many brocade guards are blocked at the door of the prefect's yamen, and the impact is not good." ”
Peng Qianhu glared at Xu Liang angrily, seeing that the officers and soldiers of the Patrol Division on both sides of the street had stopped and put on an offensive formation, and the Jinyi guards behind him were all pale and looked at the officers and soldiers of the Patrol Division with trepidation.
Although the Jinyi Guard is violent, there are only about two hundred people, while the officers and soldiers of the patrol division on both sides of the street seem to be two or three thousand! The difference in numbers is too great, and if you make a move, you really have no chance of winning! Moreover, on the opposite side is Lord Xu, the governor of Shaanxi!
Peng Qianhu sneered a few times, and asked rhetorically: "Chang'an City wants to investigate strictly, why doesn't the official know about this matter at all?" ”
Xu Liang said indifferently: "The notice of strict investigation was posted a day ago. Peng Qianhu didn't know? This...... The news of your Jinyi Guard is inevitably too closed. After that, Xu Liang threw out a notice, threw it on Peng Qianhu, and said, "It's still too late for Peng Qianhu to take a look now." ”
Peng Qianhu took it, then unfolded the notice and read it, and after reading it, his face became gloomy, and he stared at Xu Liang and asked angrily: "Dare to ask the governor, why is my Jinyi guard not within the scope of weapons allowed to carry?" ”
Xu Liang listened, sighed softly, and said, "I'm sorry." The policy issued by my governor's yamen can only take into account my officers and soldiers in Shaanxi, as for Peng Qianhu's brocade guards, I can't control it! ”
Peng Qianhu took a deep breath and said, "According to the meaning of the notice, that is to say, in the future, my Jinyi guards are not allowed to bring weapons when they enter and leave Chang'an City?" ”
Xu Liang smiled slightly and said, "Theoretically, you can say that!" ”
"!" Peng Qianhu was furious: "The flying fish suit and the embroidered spring knife are the symbols of my brocade clothes and guards walking the world!" Without weapons, how can I still detect the world?! ”
Xu Liang spread his hands and said with an innocent expression: "Well, it's not something that the official considers." He clapped his hands lightly and said, "Okay, the policy officer will tell you personally." What to do, I believe Peng Qianhu also understood. This time, you brought so many people, and they all carried murder weapons to besiege my Xi'an prefect's yamen, and this official will treat you as if you didn't know about it in advance. Be careful in the future! If you violate the rules of this official, I Xu Liang will order someone to kill! (To be continued.) )
