Chapter 54: Catch the Traitor and Catch the Double
Xiao Jiading said: "I am now the executive of the Kang County Order, and I will definitely have to deal with people with various relationships up and down in the future, I heard that when you become an official in a certain place, you must first find a way to get a local talisman, that is, the details of various local characters that you can't provoke." Although I am not an official, if I don't know the depth of the road, I am afraid that if I offend people in the future, I won't know the way. Du Lao has been in Shaocheng County for decades, and he knows the entire Yizhou Yamen well, and he can't help but talk to me. ”
Xiao Jiading's talisman is naturally from the story of Jia Yucun's confused case in "Dream of Red Mansions". Although it is a novel, it is certainly a common practice in officialdom.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Jiading said this, Du Dayin greatly appreciated it and said, "Very good! People who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries! It's not easy for you to think of this! Then I'll tell you. ”
Xiao Jiading hurriedly said: "Pour the wine first, let's talk while drinking." ”
"Yes, yes! Drink! ”
So, Du Dayin asked his family to prepare a few exquisite side dishes, and the two chatted while eating. Listening to what they said about the yamen, Du Erniu didn't bother to listen, and went back to the room by herself, leaving the two of them alone.
This Du Dayin is cunning and knows the importance of Dao information, so he only talks about some superficial things, and he doesn't say it thoroughly. It is often when Xiao Jiading asks that he remembers something and adds. When he talked about a few townships, Xiao Jiading asked about the main purpose of the trip, about Liu Xiangzheng, he was going to move this person, but he didn't know the details of him, so he would investigate first, and there would be a trade-off.
Hearing Xiao Jiading ask about Liu Xiangzheng, Du Dayin already had a little bit of alcohol, waved his hand, and said: "He is not worth mentioning, he just relies on his ancestors to save some ancestral property and has two money in his hand." His father was a businessman, and no one could afford it. It's just that he was willing to spend money and dot up and down, so he bought this township. Those officials who took his money actually looked down on him in their hearts. There are still a few such people in our county office, and I will tell you slowly in the future. ”
Xiao Jiading knew that if he wanted to take out valuable information from Du Dayin's mouth, this jar of wine was far from enough, but he had already obtained the information he wanted to know the most, and this trip had been successful.
Xiao Jiading remembered that he was obsessed with Mei, so he excused himself to leave the Du family because it was late.
He followed the address written on the door of the Crazy Plum and came to the mansion of the Crazy Plum. When I came to see her, I didn't need to mention anything, for Crazy Mei, he himself should be the best gift.
From the outside, this mansion is not big, but it is very exquisite, the porter is an old woman, reported in, the crazy plum came out soon, saw him, full of joy, said: "You are here!" Come on in! ”
"Is the redemption done?"
"That's it, now I'm free! Hee-hee! Crazy Mei looked excited.
"Congratulations!" Xiao Jiading spoke, followed her into the courtyard, looked around, and said, "This is what you rented?" ”
"No, I bought it, it's not bad, right?"
Xiao Jiading was taken aback, this idiot Mei redeemed herself, this money is not a small amount, because she is a very famous singer and a cash cow, if it is not for a big price, it is impossible to let go. Now that she has bought such a luxurious mansion, she is afraid that she will have to pay a lot of money. It seems that this crazy plum has really made a lot of money.
Xiao Jiading said: "The house is very beautiful. It's just the perfect match for you. ”
Hearing him praise herself, she was overjoyed, took his arm and went into the house. A few maids were also very interested in retreating and closing the door. Crazy Mei immediately threw herself into his arms.
The two kissed passionately and went to bed. After some clouds and rain, he lay down and spoke.
Xiao Jiading asked her what she planned to do in the future, and Crazy Mei said that she didn't want to go back to her old business, and her current money was enough for her to spend a lifetime. So don't worry about your livelihood.
Xiao Jiading wanted to get up and go back, but Crazy Mei said that if there was nothing special to do, she would stay here tonight, and she wanted to be with him. Xiao Jiading didn't have anything important, so he agreed.
Xiao Jiading always thought that since Crazy Mei was instructed by someone to carry out erotic bribery, she would definitely tell the person behind her. However, all night**, when Xiao Jiading left the next day, Niangmei did not mention others, let alone let Xiao Jiading help with anything. This made Xiao Jiading a little surprised, could it be that this idiot really fell in love with herself at first sight?
Xiao Jiading didn't believe this, he felt that maybe the time had not come. Since she didn't say it, she didn't bother to ask, pretending not to know.
Zhu Haiyin was very neat, and at noon the next day, he found five contractors to come and signed a contract with Xiao Jiading to advance funds to build shops and residences and pay interest in installments.
Xiao Jiading didn't know what to do with these shops and residences on the street, so he asked Zhu Haiyin to consult and refer to the opinions of these contractors.
For the residence, Xiao Jiading put forward a clear requirement, divided into two places, one is his own house, on one side of the street, the other is at the other end of the vegetable field, is a simple house, as a vegetable farmer's residence. His own mansion was reluctant to be built too luxuriously, because there was not so much money, and it would cause gossip.
After discussing, you can start work, entrust Zhu Haiyin to be fully responsible for supervising the work, and take the time to take a look.
I thought that the acquittal of Zhao was released, and the matter was over, but I didn't expect that this afternoon, the Kang County Order was sent by the government to send someone to pass it on, saying that it was the inspector of the imperial history who came to him to talk about this wrong case.
During the Tang Dynasty, there was a royal history platform in the capital, which was dedicated to supervising hundreds of officials. It is equivalent to the current Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Anti-Corruption Bureau. The Imperial History Observatory is divided into spring and autumn twice a year, and dispatches to supervise the imperial history patrol according to the prefecture and county, divide the hundreds of bureaucrats, correct the prison, and clean up the court. The grade of these supervising imperial histories is not high, but they are only under the eighth grade. However, they had a lot of power and could impeach incompetent officials directly to the emperor. Therefore, for these petty officials, let alone a county order, even if it is a stabbing history, they have to be careful to accompany the smiling face.
One of the very important functions and powers of supervising the imperial history is to rectify the criminal prisons, that is, to investigate the responsibility of relevant officials for unjust, false and wrongful cases. Therefore, when Kang Xianling heard that it was the supervision of the imperial history looking for him, he was scared to sweat. I went in horror. It wasn't until he was about to disperse that he came back, and he was really like ashes, and he sat there with a soulless soul.
Xiao Jiading didn't ask him what was going on, he was waiting, waiting for the beautiful nun to bring him good news.
The good news finally came that night.
At that time, Xiao Jiading was reading a book under the lamp in his residence. Suddenly, there was a flower in front of me, and there was already one more person in the room. Xiao Jiading raised his eyes and looked, it was the beautiful female Ni Huiyi!
Huiyi was wearing a black tight-fitting night suit, and her bald head was also wrapped in a black scarf, and said to Xiao Jiading: "The person you asked me to keep an eye on has just ridden out on horseback, with two small guys, and the direction is Huangyan Village!" My sister is following, I'll tell you. ”
Xiao Jiading was overjoyed and said, "Great! Wait a minute! ”
Xiao Jiading hurriedly came to the county order's house, asked to see the county order, and reported that there had been major progress in the Zhao family's fornication case, and the person who had fornicated with him was discovered, could he take someone to arrest him?
Kangxian Ling's family was worried about being impeached by the supervision of the imperial history, and when they heard Xiao Jiading's words, they immediately swept away their sorrows, and they were so happy that they almost danced, but fortunately, he had been in officialdom for many years, and he had some self-control, although he was happy, but he was not so ugly, and he was busy and said to Xiao Jiading: "Xiao Zhiyi, you are responsible for investigating this case, and you must find out!" Arrest and bring a gang of criminals to justice! The evidence must be solid, and there must be no loopholes! ”
"Subordinates obey!"
What Xiao Jiading wants is the sentence authorized by the Kang County Order, and he knows that this case is related to the future and fate of the Kang County Order, so the Kang County Order will definitely support it.
With full authorization, Xiao Jiading's confidence increased greatly, and he immediately came to the Yamen Soap Li class room, and the one on duty today happened to be Dai Zhutou. Xiao Jiading instructed him to take a few arresters, a scribe on night duty and two servants, and go with him to investigate the case. Dai Zhutou hurriedly called the catcher, prepared the horses, and rode to Huangyan Village.
When I arrived at the entrance of the village, a man in black flashed out of the darkness, who was also a nun and was already old. said to Huiyi: "Senior sister, they are in that grove!" With that, he pointed to the distance.
Huiyi said, "How long has that person been here?" ”
"He had just arrived, and his horse was tethered here. The two little guys I brought with me had already been restrained by me, in the grass over there. ”
Dai Zhutou couldn't understand what they were saying, and looked at Xiao Jiading.
Xiao Jiading said to him: "You go and call Luo Cunzheng immediately, remember, you have to be quiet, you can't make too much movement!" ”
"Good!" Dai Zhutou didn't know what Xiao Jiading was doing at this time. I didn't ask too much, and walked quickly.
Soon, Luo Cunzheng came, and there were several big families in the village, they were eating and talking at Luo Cunzheng's house, and when they heard that Xiao Zhiyi was coming, they all came to meet each other. However, the head catcher was mysterious and secretive so that they could not make any noise, and they felt very surprised. So when he saw Xiao Jiading, he didn't dare to speak, but just arched his hand.
Xiao Jiading didn't return the salute, waved his hand, and motioned for them to follow him, led by the elderly black-clothed woman nun who was squatting here, and slowly touched the small forest with her waist bent.
At this moment, I heard the sound of humming and doing things under a tree in the woods, and the rapid gasps of women and men. The man also said, "My little heart, you have suffered. Gotta give you a good ......."
"San Lang, thanks to you for saving the slave family, you can do whatever you want, the slave family is all yours......"
As soon as I heard this voice, wasn't this the Zhao family and Liu Xiangzheng who had just been released back from the village? Luo Cunzheng and the others couldn't help but be taken aback and looked at Xiao Jiading.
Xiao Jiading smiled slightly, and said to Dai Zhutou: "Rush over and catch this pair of dog men and women!" ”
Dai Zhutou had already understood what Xiao Jiading asked them to do at this moment, and immediately rushed over in the dark, and held down the two naked men and women at once, shouting in his mouth not to move! Be honest!
