Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Investigation of Immortals Division Handling Cases Irrelevant people and others evaded
Rong Fei realized something, returned to the door of the case room and knocked on the table full of books, and the middle-aged scholar raised his head and glared at Rong Fei impatiently.
"Who else was here just now?"
Rong Fei asked.
"Total catch."
After the scholar replied angrily, he continued to copy.
Really!
Rong Fei secretly said in his heart.
No wonder he said just now that he was looking for the case file in Danzhou ten years ago, and the scholar directly reported the exact location without thinking about it, and it turned out that Yu Qingzhi was the first to board.
However, what did Yu Qingzhi do with the case file of the disaster in Danzhou?
Rong Fei muttered in his heart and hurriedly left the case room, and when he came to the courtyard, he saw the thirteen catchers still standing in a row as before, their eyes flickering, hesitating, as if they had something to say.
However, Rong Fei only cared about the case file about the disaster in Danzhou that was taken away by Yu Qingzhi at this time, and didn't have time to pay attention to them, and after asking which room Yu Qingzhi was working in, he turned around and rushed into the south-facing two-story building.
The innermost room on the second floor had an open door, and Rong Fei walked to the door and looked inside, only to see Yu Qingzhi sitting behind a desk looking through the case file with interest.
"Explain."
Rong Fei walked to the chair opposite Yu Qingzhi and sat down, pointing to the dozen or so cases placed on the table.
Yu Qingzhi's long sleeves brushed the table, put away all the case files, and then said with a smile.
"I just thought that some truths are too early to know and may not be good for you, so let's wait."
"What do you mean? What other shocking secrets are hidden in the Dao of the Catastrophe in Dunzhou? ”
Rong Fei's heart moved, and he asked tentatively.
"It's hard to say, you can't say it, when your cultivation is enough to protect yourself, it's not too late to ask for these cases."
Yu Qingzhi shook his head and said.
"You have to let me know who my opponent is, and to what extent can I protect myself?"
"At least surpass me."
"How many products are you?"
"Four pins."
"So serious?"
"Cultivating more than me is just making you barely have the power to protect yourself, if you really want to ask for an explanation and seek justice, you need a higher level."
Rong Fei stopped asking questions, lowered his head and sorted out and analyzed the information revealed in Yu Qingzhi's words.
Yu Qingzhi stared at Rong Fei for a long time, and when he saw that he didn't mean to ask any more questions, he stood up and walked around the table and patted Rong Fei on the shoulder.
"The other rooms have been abandoned for a long time, and it's troublesome to clean up, so you can work here in the future, I don't come often anyway."
After that, Shi Shiran left with his hands behind his back.
Yu Qingzhi didn't seem to say anything just now, but in fact, a lot of information was revealed in his words. This made Rong Fei, who probably guessed the answer, feel dizzy.
Why?
How so?
While he was speculating, there was a knock on the door behind him.
Rong Fei turned his head and saw that it was thirteen catchers, and then he remembered the cowardly expressions he had when he saw them before, and he felt strange in his heart.
He stood up and beckoned to the catchers to let them in, and then went to Yu Qingzhi's seat behind the table and sat down.
"What's the matter?"
Rong Fei asked.
The catchers didn't dare to look at Rong Fei's eyes, and after looking at each other and secretly tugging a few times, they all took out an envelope from their arms and put it in front of Rong Fei.
A total of thirteen envelopes were neatly arranged, and each envelope had two words written on it - resignation.
Rong Fei's eyes swept over the thirteen resignation letters, and he was a little amused in his heart.
Originally, I was thinking about how to get rid of these unpleasant-looking guys, but I didn't think that they would take the initiative to come up. It's just that they really don't want to continue to spend their youth in the Immortal Division, or...
"There are a total of fourteen martial arts positions in the Immortal Division, except for Gu Fengxiao, who was seriously injured and could not take up his post, the remaining thirteen people submitted their resignations together. Hehe, are you giving Rong someone a horse? ”
Rong Fei sneered.
"Don't misunderstand, my lord, we have no such intention, and today's action is really helpless."
The longest name in the grade, Hou Chunhua, bowed quickly and replied with a bitter face.
Rong Fei raised his eyebrows and did not answer.
Hou Chunhua licked his chapped lips and swallowed a mouthful of saliva before explaining.
"Your Excellency, you don't know, our Immortal Division hasn't paid money for half a year. Although there were stagnation cases in previous years, half a year is always a limit, otherwise our brothers' family will have to drink the northwest wind.
Today is the day when the money is paid, but in the morning when he went to the household department to collect the money, he was kicked out. The director also said that there was a shortage of money in the treasury recently, so he asked him to collect it in three months.
My lord, the brothers borrowed all the relatives and neighbors at home to survive the past six months, and they originally expected to pay off the famine today, and they swore to the people. Can... But there is no money to take back, so how can we explain it? Wait another three months before the salary can be paid, but I am afraid that the whole family will starve in the winter. ”
"Kicked out? Are there monks in the household department too? How many products are cultivated? ”
Rong Fei asked.
"No... Not... There are no monks, just ordinary soldiers. ”
Hou Chunhua blushed and stammered back.
"Hehe, I'm strange, anyway, you are also a nine-rank monk, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with ten or eight ordinary soldiers, how did you get kicked out?"
"My lord, after all, it is a household department, and I dare not make a mistake in my humble position."
"Hmph, cowardice!"
Rong Fei snorted coldly.
When the crowd heard this, they all immediately looked angry, and a young catcher named Li Jiao suddenly slapped the table and shouted.
"We don't want to be cowardly, but we have to have a backer to stand up for us. Mr. Yu stayed in Xuanwu Hutong all day, and I have been in Yamen for three years, and I have seen him less than ten times. If the adults don't come forward, how dare we, the little catchers, provoke the real power of the household department.
Also, the reason why you are still dragging the salary today is because yesterday you offended the people of Qiankun Temple. The second son of the left servant of the household department was accepted as a disciple by Qiankun Guan last year, so it was clear that he wanted to vent his anger for Murong Qiushui.
Not only that, Jing Yuanhou's only son also released cruel words, not allowing any Kyoto merchants to do the business of the Immortal Division, otherwise it would be impossible for him to gain a foothold in Kyoto.
To put it bluntly, my lord, all of this is thanks to you. There's nothing we can do. ”
Li Xiang's actions startled the rest of the arresters, and he hurriedly covered his mouth innocently, and Chao Rong did not compensate for it.
But Rong Fei stood up from his seat, applauded and smiled.
"Good! It's just that kind of momentum. Being able to say these words shows that you still have some energy, and you have not yet reached the point of hopelessness. Most of what you've just said is true, and I can understand your struggles, but there is one thing that needs to be corrected. From beginning to end, the Immortal Division has an unbreakable backer, and this backer is Mr. Yu. You say that he doesn't stand up for you, so let me ask you, what have you done that is worthy of making him a four-grade monk, and the chief of the Immortal Division will come out for you?
Let Mr. Yu arrest the household department and ask you for money? Or let Mr. Yu arrest and beat up the soldiers who drove you out? That's what the chief arrest of the Immortal Division is used for? ”
The crowd was stunned when they heard it, and they seemed to have some truth after thinking about it, but they vaguely felt that something was wrong.
"Ahem, ahem."
Seeing that everyone was looking confused, Rong Fei was angry and funny, and after coughing a few times, he raised his hand and pointed at them one by one and said.
"I don't understand what I just mean, let me explain. I mean, you're all — shit! ”
"You..."
The impulsive Li Jiao's face changed and he wanted to refute, but he was stopped by the person next to him.
"Hey, I'm grumpy now. Why didn't you have this energy when you were kicked out of the household department, or do you think I am easier to bully than the household soldiers? ”
Rong Fei sneered.
"Don't misunderstand, adults, Xiao Li usually has this stinky temper, and when he went to the household department to receive the salary, he was afraid that his temper would be bad, so he didn't take him."
Hou Chunhua hurriedly explained.
"Oh, I see. Then yesterday, when Murong Qiushui smashed the signboard of the Immortal Division, Xiao Li caught it, what are you doing? ”
Rong Fei asked in an unabashedly mocking tone.
"I..."
The expression on Li Yan's face changed suddenly, and he hesitated for a long time before he whispered his defense.
"Murong Qiushui is a goddess of Qiankun and walks in the world, her cultivation is higher than mine, I am not her opponent, even if I come forward, I will bring humiliation on myself."
"Oh, I see. When you encounter someone who is more powerful than yourself, you don't dare to do it, and you don't dare to do it when you encounter a person who is higher than yourself. Hehehe, he still doesn't admit that he is a waste and a coward. ”
All the catchers lowered their heads with ugly faces, and they didn't know if it was because Rong Fei said that it was a sore spot, or because they were Shangguan, they didn't dare to talk to him anymore.
"Hmph, follow me."
Rong Fei coldly left a sentence and walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.
The crowd didn't know what Rong Fei meant, and after looking at each other, they obediently followed.
There are a total of three courtyards in the Immortal Division, and everyone is in the middle of the second courtyard at this time. Rong Fei walked through the side porch to the front yard, and saw many pairs of shackles hanging on the wooden shelves by the wall.
Rong Fei walked over and took a few shackles in his hand, then walked out of the gate, looked left and right, and then walked in the direction of the Yamen of the Household Department.
Seeing what Rong Fei had done, the crowd had already vaguely guessed something, and they all had shocked expressions.
"Brother Hou, this, this... I'm afraid something big is going to happen. What shall we do? ”
The catchers asked Hou Chunhua.
"Let's go ahead and take a look, if the situation is not right, we should withdraw quickly, since we have decided to leave the Immortal Division, there is no need to cause trouble again."
Zhong Zhu nodded quickly, far behind Rong Fei.
Whoa... Whoa...
The shackles collide with each other as they walk, making a rhythmic sound of metal crashing.
When the eight sergeants guarding outside the gate of the household department heard the voice, they looked sideways and saw a young man wearing a gray cloth shirt and carrying a string of shackles and rushing straight into the door of the household department.
"Stop, where did you come from, the household yamen also dares to trespass, do you want to eat in prison?"
Two spears crossed to stop Rong Fei, and a small flag officer shouted at Rong Fei.
"The Immortal Division handles the case, and no one else evades."
Rong Fei took out the silver medal and shouted coldly.
