The hundred households of the fireworks alley seem to be very dilapidated, although there is an unspoken rule that the official does not repair the government, but the buildings here are more and more unbearable than the abandoned city god temple, in the past, this was originally under the supervision of the hundred households on the other side of Wuma Street, and now it is divided from the side of Wuma Street, the so-called hundred households, in fact, is the former general flag office. Bayi Chinese Network

Early in the morning, Liu Chengfeng arrived here with great interest, but this dilapidated scene immediately made his good mood disappear, and he thought that this place could at least shelter from the wind and rain, but now it seems that even this most basic function seems a little reluctant.

Liu Chengfeng's face sank, he had seen all the hundreds of households in the capital, although most of them were inconspicuous, but the layout was not bad, but it was just that the hundred households in his fireworks alley were as bad as they were. He walked in with his hands in his hands, and there were already many lieutenants in it, and then a scribe came out, it was actually the Wang Si who had been in the Qianhu Office before, and the Wang Si gave Liu Chengfeng a salute, and said respectfully: "My lord." ”

Liu Chengfeng grimaced and said, "You don't take care of the case in the Thousand Households, why did you come to us?" ”

Wang Si smiled bitterly and said: "Once a son of heaven and a courtier, in the past, when Liu Qianhu was here, he still needed a villain, and now that the new Qianhu is taking office, he will naturally bring his henchmen, and the students will be kicked out sooner or later, so please transfer to the fireworks alley." ”

Liu Chengfeng finally understood, and the guy Wang Si fell backstage and stammered to his head. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, his temple was already extremely simple, and he could still be attractive to people like Wang Siyi, and he didn't know what this surnamed Wang thought.

The king said: "My lord, everyone has already arrived, are you starting to speak?" ”

Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Call them all to the lobby, I have something to command." ”

…………………………………………

In the humble lobby, more than sixty captains were lined up in four columns, all of them looking lazy, just barely showing a little respect for the new hundred households. In front of these lieutenants, there are Lao Huo and Chen Hongyu, the general banner, respectively, this Chen Hongyu was also transferred from Wuma Street, about thirty years old, his eyebrows are as thick as lacquer ink, his eyes are big, and his back is bearish. But at this time, his face was not very good-looking, there was enough oil and water on Wuma Street, and it was almost the same as exile when he was transferred here, although he was transferred here as the chief flag of Xiaoqi, but he still lost, not only him, but these captains below, which one has no resentment in his heart? So when I saw these hundred households, I didn't have much interest, taking people's money was the same as killing my parents, if it wasn't for Liu Chengfeng being given as a hundred households, and a vacancy for thousands of households would have to be vacated for him, why would everyone suffer from this crime?

The salary of the twelve guards of the Beijing division is only fifteen taels of silver per year, and most of the time the payment is not cash, and most of the time it is not cash silver.

Liu Chengfeng looked at them, although everyone had met before, but today is a formal acquaintance, Liu Chengfeng was thick-skinned, turned a blind eye to the grievances of the captains, coughed, and said: "There are no rules, there is no circle, Lord Ben is here today, and I want to explain the rules when I call everyone here." There are a total of three streets under the jurisdiction of our guard, just the fireworks alley, and most of the other two are doing ink business, there are many people who read there, and no one makes trouble, and no one is allowed to make trouble in our hundred households, who makes trouble or blackmails the store, don't blame Lord Ben for being unkind. ”

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and they weren't even allowed to go to those poor people who were in the ink business, didn't they even have the last bit of oil and water? Although there are many word stalls there, and they can't squeeze out a few dollars, but the size of a mosquito is also a piece of meat.

Chen Hongyu was angry and shouted: "My lord, you have something to say." ”

Liu Chengfeng's gaze fell on Chen Hongyu's body, and he said with a smile: "What? Chen Zongqi has something to say? ”

Chen Hongyu snorted coldly: "Naturally, there is something to say, my lord, the brothers in this hall are all dragging their families, and they don't even have two or three taels of silver every month to support their families, and now we are following the adults to do things, and everyone is willing to be loyal to the hundred households, but the adults order everyone not to extort money, what does this mean?" What is the salary of our Jinyiwei, the adults know, relying on this money, whose life can go on? If you don't have money, how can you be so bad? ”

Chen Hongyu's words touched the hearts of many lieutenants, and naturally resonated with them, so many people complained in a buzz: "My lord, you still owe dozens of taels of silver in gambling debts, if you really want to live on a salary, I am afraid that you will have to sell your ancestral house." ”

"I have a family of thirteen, all of whom rely on me to support themselves, how can I live this life in the future? Everyone doesn't expect to get rich with the hundred households, they just want to be able to have food and clothing......"

Liu Chengfeng listened to everyone's complaints with a smile, and after a long time of incense, his face changed, and he said, "Are you all done?" When you're done, then I'm done! Liu Chengfeng said coldly: "This is the rule set by Lord Ben, you are the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, since this rule has been established, everyone must abide by it!" Liu Chengfeng sneered and continued: "If anyone violates the rules of Lord Ben, Liu Zhongxia will be your end!" ”

The hall was full of silence, everyone didn't dare to gossip anymore, Liu Chengfeng's words are still very useful, after all, these hundred households are not small, not only have something to do with the court, but there are also people in the Nanzhen Mansion to protect him, thousands of households Liu Zhongxia are finished, to clean them up, isn't it as easy as strangling ants?

Chen Hongyu was not angry at this time, although he was unconvinced, he didn't dare to refute Liu Chengfeng again.

Liu Chengfeng said coldly: "The secretary of the king ......"

The priest Wang hurriedly stood up and said, "Here." ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "Go, arrange for everyone to patrol and sit on the spot, so that they can cheer up and do their errands well." ”

Wang Si hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Everyone dispersed in a hurry, and a cadre of people came out of this hall, and they went to the signing room to pick up errands, and there were also a lot of people gathered on Chen Hongyu's side, and everyone didn't dare to complain to Liu Chengfeng now, but Chen Hongyu was the general flag after all, and they all came to spit out bitter water, Chen Hongyu listened to everyone's gossip, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What's the use of telling me this?" Didn't you hear what Lord Hyakunhu said? Let's be honest and do errands. ”

The Wang priest in the signing room also persuaded with a smile, and said: "The new official has taken office with three fires, and we hundred households and scholars can talk, and it is also appropriate to maintain those poor sours who set up word stalls and put calligraphy and paintings, but it is just hard for everyone, probably when the hundred households will be sympathetic, and everyone will always have something to eat." ”

Someone sneered: "I heard that the adults of the hundred households were born in a word stall, which is called sympathy, and the smell is the same......"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Lao Huo couldn't help but say, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Baihu treats people very well, and if he has any words, he will say it to him face to face if he has the courage. ”

Everyone remembered that there was Lao Huo on the side, and they all knew that Lao Huo was the person next to Liu Chengfeng, so they didn't squeak.

Commander Wang also followed: "Captain Huo is right, it's important to do a good job." ”

in the Forbidden City.

In a dark palace, several little eunuchs sat on the desk, sorting out the notes handed over by the General Administration, which ones could be indirectly sent back to the cabinet, and which ones were to be presented to the imperial court, and there was no room for error.

At this time, the position of the head was empty, but at the bottom of the head, Gonggong Liu was holding the tea cup and closing his eyes here to recuperate. Gonggong Liu's status in this palace is not low, although the emperor now relies on foreign ministers, but he is also a person who can tremble when he stomps his feet, not to mention that he is a celebrity in front of the eunuch of Bingbi, this status is even more amazing.

The chamberlains in the palace all knew that after Gonggong Liu went out to announce his will yesterday, his face continued to be not good-looking, so no one disturbed him, and he even tiptoed when he talked and walked, and he didn't dare to breathe too heavily.

After a while, an attendant came in slowly, and whispered a few words in front of Gonggong Liu.

Gonggong Liu's closed eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of fierceness flashed. He waved his hand and said, "All retreat......

The attendants behind the case did not dare to slack off when they heard this, and they stood up one after another, and quietly withdrew from the hall like a tide.

Gonggong Liu said slowly: "Fireworks alley? ”

"That's right, it's the fireworks alley, the one who inquired about the fireworks alley is a little girl named Wen Chenruo, who is related to Liu Chengfeng, and it is through the hands of Her Royal Highness the princess."

Gonggong Liu's face became more and more gloomy, and he said, "Why is even the princess involved?" ”

"What kind of women's camp did Wen Chenruo and the princess and her group have, they often mess around together, the queen mother only has one son and one daughter, they are all spoiled in every way, who can control it?"

Gonggong Liu nodded quietly, a trace of coldness passed through his eyes, and then turned his attention to Liu Chengfeng: "What is he going to do in Fireworks Hutong?" Do you want to take food from the tiger's mouth? ”

"Father-in-law, thirty percent of the oil and water in our East Factory comes from the fireworks alley, and he has the courage to do this for a small brocade guard? Isn't it ......"

Gonggong Liu sneered and said, "You're right, since he wants to investigate, then simply let him find out, let him know how deep the water in the fireworks alley is, so that he won't have to crash into it without a head." The oil and water in the fireworks alley, don't say that he is a hundred households, even a thousand households, and he can't eat it, and the miscellaneous family will see if he has the guts. Also, go and talk to Chen Rang, and keep an eye on the person surnamed Liu in the guard, this person is a scourge, but now is not the time to move him. ”

"Do you want to talk to the factory about this?"

Gonggong Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "The miscellaneous family went to say in person, you go down." ”

"Yes."
