Chapter Seventy-Nine: Relying on Officials to Bully People
In the evening, there were still some banquets in the palace of Liaoyang County, and Dugu Xinci and Du Juan didn't bother to talk about today's county party affairs, so they put down their hearts and worked hard to create an atmosphere.
The next day, without waiting for the king of Dugu County to drive, Dugu Xinci consciously took the big bear dog and some things to the Wannian County Party on the opposite street, and Du Juan also followed sleepily.
Dugu Xinci instructed Ah Gou to go to the study behind the second hall to sort out things, and paced to the capture hall.
Wei Qing's master book has begun to distribute all kinds of documents and explain the corresponding matters, and his house is in Xuanyang Fang.
Dugu Xinci looked through the documents, took out the reminder notices from the Yao Mansion and the Song Mansion, and took out Feng Yuanyi, the Duke of Qi, as well, and then took four or five copies at will.
At the end of the day, the people in the county party came almost now, counting the original officials, there were more than 200 people, seeing that everyone looked solemn, Dugu Xinci smiled and said, "It's not the execution ground, you don't have to be nervous, everyone, if someone scolds, you bear it first, and this account will be calculated later, but if someone does it, you can fight back, and if you can't come back and tell you, you will personally ask for justice with you." ”
Only then did everyone feel more relaxed, and they received orders one after another, and left in groups.
Dugu Xinci took two guards to the ministry first, chatted with the director of Yousi, and the director was entangled and couldn't, so he recorded the hundreds of new recruits he brought, signed the flowers, and sent him elsewhere.
When I went to the waiting hall, I saw Wen Guyan, the former Lantian chief bookkeeper, and laughed with him, asking him to go home and wait for the good news, and Wen Shushu smiled bitterly.
Naturally, he was perfunctory in the ministry, and Dugu Xinci was not annoyed, so he went to the household department to report a few words, chatted a few words at will, and did not mention the matter of asking for the county money, and then went to the criminal department to ask for tea.
After a while, before the arrival of the hour, Dugu Xinci went out of Jingfengmen, and arrived at Anxingfang by the way, Anxingfang has a few to send inform, Dugu Xinci thought about it, and went to the Qiwang Mansion first.
King Qi was not in the house, yesterday in the Xingqing Palace and the saint feast and did not return, Dugu Xinci chatted with the housekeeper in the house, took out the information, the steward looked at Dugu Xinci like a monster.
Dugu Xinci also ignored it, let it sign the reply letter, the steward thought about it, this person has a little friendship with His Royal Highness King Qi, seeing that the amount on the notice is not large, he went to the Sui Qi Wangfu to collect two households, and the arrears of taxes together are twenty times, and he signed the flower charge, Dugu Xinci was pleased, so he took a piece of paper and wrote a few block letters of tax glory at will, and asked him to hand it over to King Qi.
The steward of the Qiwang Mansion sent him out of the house and came to the Song Mansion in the same place, Song Jing in the service has gone to the Daming Palace to guard the province, and his son Song Sheng and Song Shangwen heard that the Marquis of Far East came to visit, and came out to see the strangeness.
The amount of the Song Mansion is not too much, not too little, Song Sheng has collected dozens of households this year, and the arrears of rent and land tax are more than 100, but this matter is related to the face of the Song Mansion, and Song Sheng was immediately annoyed
"This fashion is the Spring Festival, and Dugu Mingfu will come to collect the debt, is it too unkind?"
"Song Jing Xianggong also went to Menxia Province to guard today, is the court also unkind?" Dugu replied with a hard heart.
"This matter needs to wait for my father to come back to discuss, and I don't know if this matter is reasonable" Song Shang played a round game, he also knew that this Dugu Ming Mansion was a person who dared to argue with his father, and Song Jing had also thrown the wine cup on this person's head.
"Then please sign the reply letter first" Dugu Xinci didn't bother to argue, and went through the procedure first.
"I don't know the so-called documents, how can a certain one draw a charge?" Song Sheng did not sign.
"Hehe, it's better for Song Langjun to sign" Dugu Xinci sneered, and he was worried that he wouldn't have a chance to repay your father's hatred?
"What if you don't?" Song Sheng is also the head of the Taifu Temple, with the backing of his father-in-law, he is not afraid of threats.
"A certain will not be good, but he will go to the Yushi Terrace to publicize the ability of Song Xianggong to teach his son, contradict the official errand, rely on the official to bully others, and see if there are any people in this world who are afraid of the power of Song Xianggong?"
The two Xiao Song were a little confused, who are these people? Sesame is a big thing, and more than 100 yuan of silver will turn against the prime minister of the current dynasty?
Song Shang hurriedly signed to send the plague god away, and before leaving, Dugu Xinci smiled and said:
"There is a reward for paying it off within three days, if you don't pay it off within ten days, Wannian County will issue a black list of tax arrears, you have to think clearly."
Song Sheng wanted to give this son a punch, but was stopped by his brother Song Shang.
Dugu Xin came to the Lu Xiangxian Mansion in the same square with a smile on his heart, Puzhou Thorn History Lu Xiangxian has not yet returned to Puzhou, saw the Ming Mansion of Wannian County to visit, personally received, heard the reason, and couldn't cry or laugh, but after asking carefully, his eyes lit up, Puzhou also has the same situation, can he follow the example?
Lu Xiangxian lamented that the household tax and the local tax were originally small taxes, and each household was only three or four times, but it accumulated a lot, but because the county government did not want to annoy the powerful, no one told them, but they were privately apportioned to the class account, increasing the burden of the class household. The two talked happily, and after half an hour, Dugu Xinci still had a few families to tell and said goodbye.
Lu Mansion also ran through the money, Lu Xiang first wanted to pay it on the spot, but Dugu Xinci asked him to send someone to the county party to pay, the procedure could not be ambiguous, and Lu Xiang gladly responded.
Before Dugu Xinci decided where to go next, officials from Wannian County came to look for him and told the auxiliary general Wang Mao Zhongfu that the guards had beaten people.
Dugu is happy and happy, and he is worried that no one will stand up, won't this be sent to the door?
Hurriedly came to the northeast corner of Xingning Fang's Fuguo General's Mansion, Xingning Fang is no stranger, Yongjiafang on the opposite street is the Warlock Association, and the mansion that was bombed by Dugu Xinci does not know if it has been repaired? Lijingmen and Yao Chongfu are also in Xingningfang.
Dugu Xinci hurriedly came to the mansion of Wang Maozhong, the general of the auxiliary state, and there were already a lot of people watching the excitement.
Dugu Xinci lined up and entered, and checked, several guards with big shoulders and round waists in the palace stood against the door, and the two new recruiters of Wannian County fell into the snow.
Dugu Xinci squatted down to check on his subordinates, and injured a little flesh and skin, but it was not a big deal.
Dugu Xinci got up and came to the palace, and arched his hand, "The master of your mansion, General Wang, is here?" ”
"A certain general doesn't have the leisure to pay attention to you and others" as the head of the guard sneered, although Dugu Xinci wore a scarlet robe, but looking young, Wang Maozhong, the general of the auxiliary country, was born as a saint and a slave, and he was meritorious from the dragon, and now he is the general of Zuo Wuwei and the auxiliary country, and gave the opening of the palace with the three divisions, how can he be afraid of a district and five county orders.
"It's better for you to go and report it, a certain is the heir of the king of Liaoyang County" Dugu Xinci shouted, Wang Maozhong has followed the saint since he was a child, and has some friendship with Duguzhen, who is also a saint.
Hearing that he was the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, the head of the guard had some doubts, so he sent someone to pass it.
After a while, a young Langjun came out, Wang Chong, the prince of the General's Mansion, Wang Xuan, the prince of Jin, Jiang Qingchu, the son of Jiang Jiao, and Yang Qiu, the young master of the Sword God Mansion, collectively referred to as the four princes of Chang'an.
"The heir of the king of Liaoyang County? What is the reason for harassing the General's Mansion during this Spring Festival? Wang Chong looked arrogant, although the king of Liaoyang County had also given Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, but after returning to Beijing the year before, he could be awarded the title of the right servant of Shangshu Province and hung up, and the Kaifu Yi and the three divisions were gone, and the duty division also gave the subordinates the left and right prime ministers to give a thin weight, and everyone thought that they had fallen out of favor.
Wang Chong also returned to Beijing from a study tour before the first day of the year, and his deeds of Dugu Xinci have not yet been thoroughly completed, and his words can't help but be sluggish.
"The Wannian County official was on an errand, and he was beaten by the guards of your mansion for some reason, and a certain Wannian County Commander Dugu Xinci came to interrogate"
"Wannian County Order? Interrogation? Wang Chong laughed, "You and others harassed the Auxiliary General's Mansion during the Spring Festival, and I want to sue you for the crime of harassment."
"Who are you?" Dugu asked kindly.
"A certain is Wang Chong, the prince of the General's Mansion of the Auxiliary State, and the order of a small county is so majestic?" Wang Chong sneered.
"Who is the one who started the beating?" Dugu Xinci asked.
"Yes, how? Do you dare to catch so-and-so? "The commander of the guards on the side waved the flag for the prince.
"Tie up," Dugu Xinci shouted.
"Haha" Wang Chong seemed to see a big joke.
There are also two or three standing Wannian County officials who are also stunned, just these three or five people will kidnap hundreds of people from the Auxiliary General's Mansion at home?
"Big Bear, tie that guy up," Dugu Xinci ordered.
"Okay" The big bear rubbed his hands and rushed over, the two guards wanted to block but were knocked away, the leader of the guards was surprised, raised his leg and kicked, the big bear grabbed his ankle by the trend, and knocked him to the ground, and the dog also ran over, and untied his belt and tied his hands.
"How dare you wait?" Wang Chongjun's face turned red with anger.
"So-and-so's courage was given by a saint, you can go back and ask clearly, who is Dugu Xinci to speak again" Dugu Xinci didn't bother to pay attention.
The dozen or so guards in front of the Auxiliary General's Mansion have all been knocked down by the Great Bear.
Dugu Xinci used to kick and kick the head of the guard who was tied up by Ah Dog in the shape of a zongzi, "You beat the Wannian County officials?" ”
"What if it's so-and-so?" The leader of the guards is still fierce.
"Strip your clothes and send them back to the county jail," Dugu Xinci ordered.
Ah Dog immediately grabbed his shirt with both hands and tore it, and in a moment, the leader of the guards became clean and slippery.
"Wait for a certain return home," Dugu Xinci instructed a few Wannian county officials to help up the two injured people.
"Bold, you wait for you to leave," Wang Chong shouted, and several people rushed out of the general's mansion to make guns and sticks.
"Shizi has to think clearly, the nature of this knife and gun has changed?" Dugu Xinci sneered.
"Stop"
"Stop"
Two cheers rang out outside the crowd and inside the house.
A group of Jinwuwei soldiers poured into the crowd, and the leader was still Pei Min, and the poor right Jinwuwei general also ran around during the Spring Festival. He was the one in the crowd who shouted to stop.
There is also a person in the mansion, a round-necked brocade robe, who is Wang Maozhong, the general of the auxiliary state.
Wang Maozhong saw that his guard commander was stripped like a bare pig, his face was uncertain, and he looked at Dugu Xinci with a gloomy face.
"Wannian County Commander Dugu Xinci has seen General Wang, Happy New Year" Dugu Xinci smiled and greeted. "I've seen General Pei, it's hard to work hard in the New Year"
"Dugu Mingfu is making trouble in a certain mansion today, but it looks like a bullying?" General Wang was the first to call Qu.
"Can General Wang understand the reason for the incident?" Dugu Xinci was still smiling, and General Pei Min couldn't help but have a headache with this smiling tiger.
"Assaulting a certain guard, but the county order did it?" General Wang hit a rake first.
"The state has national law, this matter has nothing to do with General Wang, there is a certain official business first, farewell" Dugu Xinci is too lazy to entangle with it.
"If you hit someone, you want to leave," Wang Chong also shouted on the side.
"A certain is to arrest and beat the criminal who beat the officials of Wannian County, and you want to stop the tolerance from handling the case?" Dugu is kind and intimidating.
"Ruyi County ordered to harass the general's mansion during the Spring Festival, and injured the guards in a certain mansion, but instead falsely accused a certain guard of beating people, and a certain must go to the saint to join you" General Wang Maozhong shouted.
"Trouble you to figure it out before you speak," Dugu sighed, "If you don't go to the saint, you are a puppy"
The onlookers laughed, Wang Maozhong had the intention to kill this unscrupulous county order, but he was afraid of Jin Wuwei's presence, so his face turned black with anger.
"General Pei, is this matter handed over by Jin Wuwei to Jingzhao Mansion or by a certain Wannian County?" Dugu Xinci began to ask General Pei Min.
"It's the New Year, let's stop," Pei Min sighed, "Let's go to the criminal department together."
According to the law, Jin Wuwei can deal with everything on the street, but he only has the right to arrest and has no right to judge, and the general petty theft cases are given to Wannian County or Chang'an County, and the larger ones are handed over to Jingzhao Mansion.
"You will follow General Pei to the Criminal Department, and you will come after you finish your business," Dugu Xinci instructed several subordinates.
"Won't you go with you?" Pei Min was a little surprised.
"I'm busy, I believe that the Criminal Department will deal with such a trivial matter fairly" Dugu Xinci understated, "General Wang didn't know what to do, and I saw how you stepped down?" ”
"Go to the saint and ask the saint to administer justice" General Wang stomped his feet, he really didn't know why, he was also drunk in the palace yesterday, and when he woke up today, he heard a commotion in front of the house.
General Wang was in a hurry, and hurriedly went to Xingqing Palace to complain, Dugu Xinci told a few newly recruited officials not to be afraid, and when he arrived at the Criminal Department, he told the truth, looked at the crowd, and arched his hand, "Today's matter, can you see it?" If you have the guts, you can go together, I believe that this Lang Lang Qian or the law of the country is great"
There are really a few scholars who have come to Beijing to visit relatives from other places who are not afraid of big things and are clamoring to go with them.
Dugu Xinci looked at General Pei, smiled and said goodbye, Pei Min couldn't, and asked the people from the General's Mansion to put on clothes for the head of the guard, and all of them were taken to the Criminal Department.
Dugu Xinci took over the errand that the officials on this road were going to do today, and there were still about a dozen families that had not been told, so he took Ah Gou to visit them one by one, and Da Xiong also followed Pei Min.
Dugu Xinci visited a few seven or eight free households, all of them dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, they were polite and polite, and they were angry and holding back the painting to prepare to see the limelight, Dugu Xinci didn't care, and came to Yaofu happily, which is a big tax debtor, more than 2,000 times.
Yao Chong's Liang Guogong Mansion was unexpectedly empty, Dugu Xinci's momentum of preparation suddenly withered, and asked a steward of his stay in the mansion to sign for detention, this steward was still chattering, Dugu Xinci intimidated, the steward of the Auxiliary General's Mansion was detained to the Criminal Department without signing, if you don't want the Liang Guogong Mansion to make a fool, you don't want to sign.
The steward couldn't, and it was just a reply letter after receiving the notice, so he signed it.
Dugu Xinci carried a stack of reply letters, and went out of the Liang Guogong Mansion to prepare to go to the Feng Yuanyi Mansion of the Duke of Qi, this is another large tax arrears, with nearly 3,000 yuan, Dugu Xinci was still fantasizing about maybe being able to have a mixed lunch, and saw a column of people on the street, the first two of whom were Pei Min, who had just said goodbye, and Feng Yuanyi, the Duke of Qi who was thinking about going to his mansion.
"It's a coincidence, I want to go to the Mansion of Qi to see the dance scene in clothes?" Dugu Xinci's first sentence ruined the good mood of Qi Guogong's New Year.
"Sage Xuanru enters the palace" Pei Min hurriedly spoke, afraid that the rampaging Lijingmen chief manager would hurt people.
"What a bold little county order? This is the New Year's harassment of the ministers who are all over the city, do you think Chang'an has been too peaceful recently? Mr. Feng forced the churning mind and sneered.
"So and so go to pay New Year's greetings to the two aunts? Thou art not welcomed? "Dugu Xin pretends to be innocent.
"Don't talk nonsense, the sage ordered a certain person to go to see the driver"
"Bet? Do you want to remove a certain duty company? Okay, "Dugu is merciful and happy."
The two generals of the forbidden army are covered with hair, and there are still officials in this world who are overjoyed when they hear about their dismissal?
Ask a question when beating a stick, relying on officials to bully people
