Chapter 123: The Four King Kongs
The next day, Yan Hong no longer got up early and slept lazily as before. After eating and drinking, he took Yan Feng and Yan Fu to the yamen, and just missed the order.
When he arrived at the main hall of the White Tiger, he saw that Lu Bing had finished, but he saw that there were four other officials standing beside him. The four men were old and young, the older ones were forty years old, and the younger ones were nearly thirty.
Lu Bing said: "These four people are the first-class talents in our Jinyi Guard, shrewd and capable, strong in martial arts, and each with strange abilities. Before this case, they had also been in charge of investigating. With them assisting the nephew, it is expected that this case will not take much effort. After that, he said to the four people: "The four of you must also do your best to assist Yan Qianhu, if you are lazy, you must know that military law is ruthless." β
In the Jinyi Guard, the military order is like a mountain, but without Lu Bing's words, how dare the four of them slack? Immediately came over to see Yan Hong and reported his resume.
It turned out that the oldest one was named Wang Ting, who was born in Huaishang Mighty Eagle Claw Gate, and he was quite successful in eagle claw skills, but he voluntarily joined the guard, and he was forty-two years old this year. Although he has the title of trying 100 households, he is only a substantive general banner, but it is difficult for the person who is to be promoted, and it is not easy to be a substantive general banner, which can be described as the best among the "volunteers".
Another tall man named Liu Lian is also the general flag of the 100 household ranks. Not to mention the kung fu of the judge's pen to hit the acupuncture points, he is also good at playing slingshots, and he is more proficient in the way of autopsy, which is the internal work of Weizhong.
The other two are slightly younger, the red-faced Tao Zhi, and the white-faced one is called Shao An. These two are hereditary general flags, as for what they have, the two of them have never boasted, and Yan Hong didn't know it for a while. Lu Bing was silent with a sly smile on his face.
After listening to the narrative, Yan Hong hurriedly helped the four of them up and said: "The four of them are all good brothers in my brocade clothes, and they are beyond my ability in terms of qualifications. β
Lu Bing said on the side: "Yan Shi's nephew is wrong. Our Jinyi Wei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and they are all military members. No matter how old or young you are in the army, no matter what qualifications and abilities you have, it is inevitable that a subordinate officer will see a senior official Shi Tingshen. Although the nephew is generous, don't these four people dare to abolish the number of courtesies? β
Yan Hong said: "Shibo taught a lesson. β
Lu Bing said again: "In addition, since the nephew wants to handle this case, he can't do without an official office." It just so happened that Mu Denggao was in trouble, and he suddenly contracted a small illness last night, and his head was dizzy, but he had to recuperate at home for a few days. His official office will be temporarily lent to you for use, and will be returned after the case is concluded. β
Yan Hong understood in his heart that Old Man Mu had told himself about Jinyiwei yesterday, and he was in good spirits, and he didn't look like he was sick at all. It was clearly to find an office place for Yan Hong, so that Master Mu would be "sick". However, the parties did enjoy it. Can you tie up with the elder grandson of the cabinet, and an official office is considered a yarn?
When they said goodbye to Lu Bing, the five of them went to the original official office of Mu Denggao. Yan Hong sat in the middle, and the four of them were divided into two compartments, just in this small official office, and they also had a decent shelf for the office.
Yan Hong swept around, feeling a little uncomfortable, and said, "Four brothers, you are older than me in terms of age, and you are better than me in terms of ability." Although our pro-army talks about the dignity and humility of the position, but I, a thousand households, really can't be compared with the other predecessors of Benwei. In front of Governor Lu, we have to pretend. Now, you don't have to. It's all your own people, sit down quickly, sit quickly. β
Speaking of which, this brocade guard does emphasize personal dignity and inferiority, rather than personal ability. It will never be as written in the YY novels of later generations, those who have the ability dare to confront Shangguan, that is a proper death.
Of course, it is not uncommon for the following offenses to be beaten and confronted by superiors. However, most of them came from the border army, or some lower-level officers and soldiers had other backgrounds, and they were bullying others, and they were lawless for this. Or, because of the accumulation of food arrears and other matters, contradictions gradually accumulate, and once they erupt, relying on the creed of "the law does not hold the people accountable", it is like a mutiny.
And Jinyiwei usually has no shortage of food, who dares to do the following crimes? Therefore, the so-called personal ability is not worth mentioning in front of the official position. No matter what these four people think of Yan Hong's ability in their hearts, the objective fact is that they are only actually awarded the general flag, and at most two of them are hanging on the false title of trying 100 households. Compared with Yan Hong, a thousand households, there is a big difference. Who dares to take it big in front of Chief Yan? Not to mention, this young master has the support of Yan Ge Lao behind him.
Therefore, although Yan Hong was polite repeatedly, the four brocade-clothed officials insisted on refusing to sit down. Yan Hong said with a smile: "Very good, since the four brothers are so polite, our brothers will share the blessings and difficulties." That brother and I had to stand and work. This is also a great spectacle in our yamen, but it is interesting. β
After that, Yan Hong really stood up. Seeing him say this, the four of them finally didn't dare to disobey anymore, so they had to sit down together.
The reason why Yan Hong wanted the four of them to sit down was not necessarily to show his unique "generosity". It's just that he has traveled through the 21st century and knows a little bit about modern enterprise management. For a team to make a difference, trust and cohesion are usually very important for each other.
If you want to solve this case, you must have the support of these four general flags. If you only remember to be humble and detached from each other, then you still want to make achievements? And with such a tender face, it is impossible to convince the four old subordinates just by relying on the official frame. Instead of this, it is better to simply lower your posture and be more polite with them, so that they really see themselves as trustworthy, which is very beneficial to solving the case.
Seeing the four of them sit down, Yan Hong said: "Four brothers, you have been in charge of this case for a long time, and you must know everything about this case. Not to mention that the four have been in the guard for many years, and they are experienced in a hundred battles. Just now, Governor Lu said that the four of them are all capable people of our Jinyi Guard, and what he said must be true. Brother, I will be polite to the four brothers first. β
With that, Yan Hong arched his hands. In a panic, the four of them hurriedly stood up and returned the salute one after another: "Lord Qianhu, you're polite, you're polite!" β
Yan Hong said again: "Brother, I'm young, and I'm just here, I don't know anything about the rules in Jinyiwei, not to mention that there is a tricky case here." Therefore, to complete this case, it is inseparable from the great help of the four. So, I hope the four brothers will help a lot. Brother, if I have done something inappropriate, please let the four of you give me advice. After today's duty, brother, I have a treat, let's find a place to drink two cups! β
The four of Wang, Liu, Tao, and Shao couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw that Yan Hong was not only polite, but also quite modest in his words. Originally, they visited the street every day, and they were also very familiar with the reputation of Yan Hong, the little king of Hades. I knew in my heart that this was a gentleman and had no real skills.
And this time, he was newly sealed, and he was actually taught to thousands of households, and he was born in a Wenchen family, when will he take a few of his brocade clothes to heart? I had already thought that he would be arrogant and domineering, and there was no one in his eyes. Anyway, he obeys Lu Dudu's orders, and no matter how ugly this little Yama is, he can only bear it.
Unexpectedly, at first sight, the little king of Hades was so polite, and he praised the four of them in his words. In this way, although the four of them did not bow their heads and bow down because of Yan Hong's actions, they were willing to be wings, but their impression of him in their hearts changed greatly.
And Yan Hong admitted that he didn't know much about the business and needed help, which impressed the four of them.
When the Ming Dynasty was in Jiajing, there were not a few fools in various departments of the imperial court, and Yan Hong was by no means the only one. Even the officials of the six ministries may not really understand the affairs of their own department. And if you look at the whole territory of the Ming Dynasty, there are quite a lot of pro-people officials such as county magistrates and prefects, who have titles from two lists, but they only know that they are locked in the yamen study and chanting the wind and the moon, chewing the words, and they don't know anything about the affairs of the government, and some of them throw their work to the miscellaneous officials and masters, and they don't read the case files for a few months; There are even those who have been county governors all their lives, but they don't know anything about the Daming Law, and they are at a loss about the county's population taxes. Are there still few such officials?
To put it mildly, it is a major military event such as the battle between the two armies, and the civil servants sent by the imperial court to supervise the division may not know each other. But they all have to put on a look of being familiar with the soldiers, and point fingers at the military attachΓ©s and generals. There are not a few people who hinder in many ways and even mislead the country.
And the biggest difference between Yan Hong and them is that those officials still want to save face, put on an official stand, and don't admit that they don't understand at all. And Yan Hong dared to admit his ignorance. If you dare to admit that you are ignorant, then you can rest assured that you can ask others for advice and learn from each other's strengths, and the original problem may not be a big problem.
These four general flags are not idle people. Seeing Yan Hong so humbly, he felt that the bearing of this young chief was rare. In addition, this is an envoy personally assigned by Governor Lu, who would dare to be lazy? Therefore, the four of them did not hide it, and reported the clues related to the case obtained during this period of time to Yan Hong.
To say that this brocade guard, although in the written works of later generations, has been demonized, as if it is a terrorist organization that does all kinds of evil and single-mindedly frames the loyal and good and kills innocents. But on the other hand, this spy agency, which has existed since the time of Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, is definitely among the best among the various spy agencies of the feudal dynasty because of its strong effectiveness.
Therefore, the family affairs of Feng Xiaoxian, the suspect in this case, have long been dug up by these spies.
This Feng Xiao was originally from Shenxian County, Hebei Province, and was the only son in the family. Speaking of the Feng family, he was originally a wealthy family, and his ancestors had also been officials. But as the so-called wealth is only three generations, when it reaches his father Feng Yun's generation, the family is already not as good as it used to be. His father Feng Yun was unsuccessful in the imperial examination, and the family business was declining day by day.
It is a disaster that does not go alone, and last year, the Feng family suffered another fire, and the family property was almost devoured by Zhu Rong. Although Feng Yun and his wife were rescued from the fire, they were frightened and frightened, and they were even more distressed about their family business, so they couldn't afford to fall ill. Tossed back and forth for more than a year, treated the disease and recuperated, mourned after death, and spent the rest of the family property clean. Even Feng Xiaoxian's food and drink during the funeral relied on the help of his own people, so that he would not starve to death on the streets.
