Chapter 828: Strict Rules
"And the existence of the Jinyi Guard is to deal with those enemies who want to be unfavorable to Your Majesty."
"I know that." Zhang Yunfan nodded in agreement, "It's just that the rules of the Jinyi Guard are strict, and it is difficult to enter the Jinyi Guard, let alone be in charge of the Criminal Department."
"Who said I was going to be in charge of the Punishment Department?" Qin Fan asked rhetorically.
"Ugh." Zhang Yunfan was stunned and wondered, "Since you didn't enter the Jinyi Guard, what do you want to do?"
"The Jinyi Guard is under His Majesty's command, and is responsible for dealing with the felons of the imperial court." Qin Fan said solemnly, "And my duty is to arrest the Jiangyang thieves."
"Arrest the Jiangyang thief?"
Zhang Yunfan's eyes widened and he said in surprise, "No."
"Of course it's true." Qin Fan said, "Have you forgotten the words in my hometown? As long as Jin Yiwei intervenes in the case, which one has failed?"
"Ugh."
"Qin County Order, can you really handle it?" Zhang Yunfan said worriedly: "On our side, we can't even afford to hire a master of the rivers and lakes."
The salary of Jinyiwei is very expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
"I have a way." Qin Fan smiled and said, "Wait a minute, you take me to find Zhang Shangshu, and I will ask him to send someone to assist me."
"Okay, let's go." Zhang Yunfan immediately decided.
Immediately, the two galloped all the way to the back house of the Yamen of the Criminal Department, and found Zhang Shangshu who was reviewing the documents, this person was named Zhang Desheng.
Zhang Shangshu is nominally the secretary of the ministry, but in fact he is also the secretary of the criminal department.
When Li Yu ascended the throne as emperor, he appointed Zhang Desheng as the secretary of the criminal department and was responsible for handling various difficult cases.
In addition, Zhang Desheng has another layer of identity, that is, the in-laws of the Qin family.
"I've seen two young masters."
Zhang Desheng raised his head with a smile, looked at Qin Fan and the others, and said with a gentle smile: "Why did you go to the old decay here again today? Don't you want to learn the art of war?"
"Ugh."
Qin Fan smiled and said modestly, "How dare my little brother disturb your old purity."
As he spoke, he quietly pulled Zhang Yunfan aside and said in a low voice, "Uncle Zhang, take a step to speak."
Zhang Desheng glanced at Qin Fan suspiciously, and followed Qin Fan to the center of the courtyard.
"What the hell is going on, you kid? Mysterious?" Zhang Desheng asked.
"That's right, Uncle Zhang."
Qin Fan pondered for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "I have a distant cousin named Zhang Yue."
After speaking, Qin Fan took out a thin booklet and handed it to Zhang Desheng.
"It is."
Zhang Desheng took the booklet and wondered, "What do you mean by this?"
"This cousin of mine is a strong martial artist and is good at the art of concealment." Qin Fan explained, "I think it's too wasteful of her talent to lurk in prison, and I want her to join Jinyiwei."
"Ugh."
Zhang Desheng looked at Qin Fan in amazement.
At this time, he finally understood why Qin Fan wanted to say this to himself just now.
Although Zhang Desheng is only a secretary of the Criminal Department, he is quite influential in the imperial court and has a close relationship with the royal family.
Therefore, he knew about the existence of Jinyiwei.
Qin Fan is the son-in-law of Huangfu Duan, and Jinyiwei is led by Huangfu Song.
Therefore, if Qin Fan wants to dispatch Jinyi Guard, he doesn't need to go through Li Sheng at all.
"Ahem."
Zhang Desheng coughed lightly, and said with a stiff face, "Your cousin wants to join Jinyiwei, and the old man naturally welcomes him with both hands. It's a pity that the rules of the Jinyi Guard are too strict."
"No problem.".
Qin Fan waved his hand and said with a faint smile: "All this is wrapped up in me, and within three days, I guarantee that it can be properly arranged."
Saying that, Qin Fan took out the silver ticket in his arms, stuffed it into Zhang Desheng's hand and said, "Uncle Zhang, I'm sorry for you."
"Isn't this okay?"
Zhang Desheng shirked for a while, but finally accepted it and said, "That's okay, I'll try my best."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang
。」
Qin Fan nodded with satisfaction, and after a few more idle words with Zhang Desheng, he left the yamen of the Criminal Department.
Back at his residence, Qin Fan found Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue'e is wearing a tight suit with red and black, with a graceful figure and exquisite curves.
Her skin is very fair, and her facial features are also very standard, if she is slightly retouched, she must be a peerless beauty.
"Sister Zhang, there is something I need your help with." Qin Fan said with a smile.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhang Yue'e sat on a chair, with slender and straight jade legs, looking lazy.
"As long as I can, I will definitely promise you."
Qin Fan explained the task of Jinyiwei's inspector in detail.
Zhang Yue'e frowned slightly when she heard this, and hesitated: "Qin Fan, are you sure that Jinyiwei can do it?"
"One hundred percent." Qin Fan said firmly.
"Why are you so sure?" Zhang Yue'e asked.
"I said it would work, and it would work." Qin Fan said arrogantly, "You can take care of this matter."
After Qin Fan made all these arrangements, he put on his official uniform again and sat on the main seat of the Wannian County Ya.
"Listen to orders."
After everyone was seated, Qin Fan looked around, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and announced loudly.
"Starting today, the government will reform the brocade and guard system."
As soon as the words fell, the originally lively and noisy county government instantly became silent.
"Smack."
Qin Fan slapped the table and shouted, "The function of Jinyiwei is to detect unjust, false and wrongful cases, punish bullies, and maintain the stability of the Tang Dynasty."
"If the Jinyi Guards are just a rabble, then it might as well be disbanded."
Everyone in the hall fell to their knees and bowed their heads in fear, "The grass people obey."
"Hmm."
Qin Fan nodded slightly and continued, "From now on, I will follow the usual practice to choose eight brocade guards and thousands of households."
"As for who is chosen as a thousand households, it depends on their own efforts."
"Also."
Saying that, Qin Fan stood up and said coldly, "In addition to the information I provided, there is also a piece of information in the Jinyi Guard, which may be valuable."
"What information?" Zhang Desheng said curiously.
Qin Fan took out a secret letter from his bosom, threw it to Zhang Desheng and said, "Uncle Zhang, I hope you can send Jinyi Wei spies to investigate this person."
Zhang Desheng took the letterhead, browsed it carefully, and then frowned slightly: "Your information is wrong."
"Is there a mistake?"
Qin Fan was surprised: "No, according to my observation, this person's name is Li Qingshan, and he is the son of the Li family, a salt merchant in Yangzhou."
"My ancestral home is Zhejiang and Hangzhou, and I was once admitted to the Jinshi in Jiangnan Province, but I was relegated to the capital some time ago."
"Your investigation is incorrect."
Zhang Desheng shook his head and frowned, "This Li Qingshan is not a salt merchant."
"Huh? Not a salt merchant?" Qin Fan was stunned.
Zhang Desheng nodded and said solemnly: "This person is a cloth cloth, not only a salt merchant, but also a salt patrol in Yangzhou." After a pause, Zhang Desheng added, "And he is also the nephew of the current Shoufu Xu Gelao, and he is deeply favored by the emperor."
"Ugh."
Qin Fan blinked his eyes and sighed, "It's really amazing. This guy actually became Shousuke's nephew, no wonder he was so rampant."
