Chapter 087: Chen's Qingtian

Chen Cao opened his mouth and said: "Ben Bo has the virtue of a good life, but you guys are really insatiable, don't worry about the whole family, but all those who participate will be beheaded after the autumn." ”

Where did Qi Shangwen see Chen Cao's methods, and was about to interject, Zhao Xin said: "Qi Zhixian, you have no way to control it, and the official is very suspicious of whether you are involved, so I will give you my Jinyiwei's driving post, and go with us to the Zhenfu Division." ”

"Ah..."Qi Shangwen was shocked, can the Jinyi Guard's Suppression Division go casually? But whoever went didn't have the life to come out alive: "Uncle Dingwu, the lower officials are wronged, the lower officials don't know..."

"Really?" Chen Cao squinted at Qi Shangwen: "The bag behind Benbo's head is not fake... Put it down beforehand, come here, and bring the woman up. ”

The woman was wearing Chen Cao's clothes, and after going to the court, she knelt down: "The adults are wronged, the women have a great grievance..."

Chen Cao stared at Qi Shangwen: "Did you hear it, a great grievance, Qi Zhixian, do you know what grievances this woman suffered in prison?" The four of them insulted her, and Ben Bo didn't believe that your Qiantang County Ya didn't have a cell for female prisoners to hold alone. ”

"Those who rape women, according to the law, will be punished by exile for thirty years..."Zhao Xin interjected.

Chen Cao nodded: "The four prisoners in the prison, no matter what the crime is, will all be fifty and exiled to Qiongzhou, and the two officials in the prison..."

"Uncle," a lieutenant walked into the lobby, "two of the jailers in the cell are dead. ”

Qi Shangwen was already frightened at the moment, Zhao Xin turned around and said: "The two of them beat the court officials, asked for bribes, and committed suicide. ”

"Yes..."

Zhao Xin blatantly did such a thing in front of Qi Shangwen, making it clear that he was going to eat Qi Shangwen today.

Chen Cao was shocked again: "The woman in the hall, what did she do, what grievances she had, tell me carefully." ”

"The folk woman Xu Shi lives in the east of the city, and the husband's family is doing a small business in the city, and the green skin Zhao San has come to my stall for several days to tease the folk women, and the folk women have been prevented by the public, but instead... On the contrary...", Xu began to cry as he spoke.

Chen Cao stared at Qi Shangwen: "Qi Zhixian, do you know about this matter?" ”

Qi Shangwen had cold sweat on his forehead, he didn't know that the Xu family's Xianggong was dead: "Back to Ding Wubo, Xia Guan... Xiaguan..."

"Xu, you go on." Chen Cao asked again.

Xu cried for a while, and then said: "The people's woman and the princess argued with him, and the two sides were beaten, and the people's woman and the princess were beaten to death by Zhao San, ah... The husband's family sued the county government, and the county adults said that they were beating each other, and they were not prosecuted, and they only asked Zhao San to compensate for the funeral expenses of two taels of silver, and I pity my father-in-law..."

He began to cry again.

Chen Cao frowned, and then stared at Qi Shangwen: "Qi Zhixian, Ben Bo won't ask you first, Xu, I'll ask you, did Zhao San repeatedly harass you after losing money, and then found a reason to insult you, and then colluded with the county government to frame you in prison?" ”

Xu's eyes widened, and then he nodded with tears: "Lord Mingjian... That's it... Then Zhao San broke into the woman's house, insulted the woman, and framed the woman in prison the next day..."

Chen Cao guessed, he felt that the routine was like this: "Well, Zhao San is really a good thing, Ben Bo pronounced the sentence, Zhao San beat people to death, framed others, no need to be exiled, let's be decided, below the head of the county government team, all those who have committed crimes will be arrested and sent to Qiongzhou to reclaim the wasteland..."

"Yes..."

"Lord Xie... Mr. Xie..."

After shedding tears, Chen Cao found that the Xu family did have some posture, otherwise Zhao San would not have teased her: "Xu, what are you doing at home?" ”

"Do some small business of food, barely support the family..."Xu cried.

Chen Cao nodded, there is a lack of a stir-fry cook at home, and she still has some appearance, maybe it's okay...

Thinking of this, Chen Cao felt so relieved that he didn't even feel the bag on the back of his head: "Xu, what about your family?" ”

Xu cried even more when he heard it: "The life of the folk woman has been miserable since she was a child, and her parents passed away one after another after getting married, and now the insult of the folk woman has long been spread all over the township, and there is no shame to go back..."

That's right...

Chen was overjoyed for a while, and then said: "In this case, Ben Bo is a good person to do it to the end, there is a shortage of a cook in my house, since you are in the food business, you should be able to cook and cook." ”

Where was Xu reluctant to go to the Earl's Mansion to do things, so he kowtowed immediately: "Uncle Xie, a woman, is very gracious, Uncle Xie." ”

"Qi Zhi County," Chen Cao looked at him again: "As the Qiantang Zhi County, how should you be investigated?" ”

"Xiaguan... Xiaguan...."Qi Shangwen's body trembled uncontrollably.

"Benbo heard that there are not only many beautiful women in Hangzhou, but even small merchants and hawkers are rich families, I don't know if there is such a thing..."

...

After Chen Cao went out from the Qiantang County Ya, he remembered something, pulled Zhao Xin's clothes and said, "Go and ask me, where did the girl who was arrested with us go before?" ”

Zhao Xin arched his hand and said: "Uncle, don't worry, my subordinates tortured that team leader before, and after we were arrested and put in prison, that girl was escorted to the inspection department by the officials." ”

"It's broken..."Chen Cao got on his horse and shouted, "Leave a team of people to bring things back, Zhao Xin, lead the way." ”

Because Qiantang County is the seat of Hangzhou Prefecture, the city and the county seat are the same, because of the existence of the Qiantang River, there are more than a dozen inspection divisions here, and Liu Youwei is the city inspection, the inspection department of the yamen is three streets away from the county government, such a toss, if you go late, the girl will definitely be hacked.

There are more than 100 soldiers in the Qiantang Inspection Division, and there are two soldiers standing at the entrance of the yamen.

The deputy inspector Liu Youwei was in charge, Zhao Xin drew a knife and escorted a soldier to lead the way, and took Chen Cao to the backyard of the inspection department, and heard the woman's cry as soon as he entered.

Is this still worth it?

The brocade guard next to him ran quickly and kicked open the door of the house in front of him, Chen Cao walked in and saw that Liu Youwei's fat body had just been stripped naked, and the woman was also stripped of only the small clothes on her upper body, and her lower body was naked.

Zhao Xin didn't dare to go in when he saw the clothes on the ground, and he also stopped the people who wanted to follow up, because with what he knew about Chen Cao's urine, he couldn't say that this woman would become Chen Cao's room like Zhang Chunyao in the future, where would she dare to go in casually.

Chen Cao kicked Liu Youwei away with just one kick, and then picked up the woman's clothes and covered her body: "Don't be afraid, girl, I'll save you." ”

When the woman saw that it was Chen Cao, she couldn't cry, and she was dressed in a hurry, looking very scared.

Chen Cao pinched Liu Youwei's neck, and as soon as Liu Youwei, who was still talking cruelly and calling people out just now, he saw the colorful flying fish suit and Zhao Xin, who was dressed up before, and he was immediately paralyzed with fright.

'Smack...'

Zhao Xin knocked out Liu Youwei's front teeth with a slap: "A deputy inspector from the ninth rank also dares to call himself 'this official' in front of Lord Qincha, and he also robbed a woman from a good family in broad daylight, and he should be beheaded according to the law..."

As soon as the inspector Kang rate arrived at the yamen, he learned the news that Jinyi Wei had come to the door, and he ran into the backyard in a hurry to see Liu Youwei who was being beaten.

He hadn't seen Chen Cao, but he could guess from the momentum that the young man was Ding Wubo: "The lowly Qiantang Inspection Department inspected Kang Rate, and I have seen Qin Cha Ding Wubo..."

Kang Sui immediately knelt down on one knee towards Chen Cao and gave a military salute.

Chen Cao glanced back, and then said: "Your inspection department is also bold, this thief dares to be a deputy inspector with such a figure, how much benefit did the people of Zhejiang Dusi receive from him?" ”

Kang was taken aback, and then gave his hand: "I don't dare to deceive my lord, Inspector Liu is the distant nephew of the political envoy Lord Liu..."

"Do you dare to tell the truth?" Chen Cao frowned and stared at the man kneeling on the ground: "Some courage, you're afraid you're not from Zhejiang, right?" ”

Kang Shu nodded: "The humble post was originally from Shandong, but because of the defeat in the first battle of Salhu, he was demoted from a hundred household officials to Qiantang County Yalai to do a nine-grade inspection. ”

Kang Shu's mention of this made him suddenly think of Yuan Shizhong, the degraded thousand-household official who fought with him back then, so he turned his head to look at Zhao Xin: "I almost forgot one thing, let people inquire about where Yuan Shizhong went after the defeat of Liaoyang that year, and transferred him to the new army after finding it." ”

"Yes, that's it."

Chen Cao looked at Kang Rate again: "Get up." ”

"Uncle Xie..."Kang saluted before standing up: "I don't know what happened to Inspector Liu." ”

Zhao Xin, who had already made the arrangement, told Kang Rate about the matter before and after, and Kang Rate said after listening: "I don't dare to hide it, because of Liu's big background, the lowly inspection is like a decoration, no, he did the easy things to stay in the hall." ”

Chen Cao saw Kang Shu's muscles and knew that this person must have a hand if he could come back alive from Salhu, and immediately became fond of talent: "What you are doing in this inspection is meaningless, do you want to follow Ben Bo?" ”

When Kang Shu heard this, he hurriedly clenched his fists: "The name of the uncle has already spread all over Zhejiang, and the lowly job is worried that there is no way to buy insurance, so I ask the uncle to take it in." ”

"Okay, you have experienced the battle of Sarhu, you have dealt with the Tartars, you should know the stakes of the battlefield, the formation of our new army is in need of grassroots officers, follow Benbo, your benefits are indispensable." Chen Cao nodded.

"Uncle Xie..."

"Come on, put this girl on and send it to my line first, take down Liu Youwei's guy, and deduct my Qincha Yamen." After Chen Cao finished speaking, he left with someone.

After a strong moment, he obviously felt some pain in the back of his head, and he had to quickly find a doctor for treatment, so as not to have a stroke.

...

"Master..."Liu Weisi's butler came to the door of his study, bowed down and said, "Master, your cousin Liu Youwei was arrested by the Emperor Dingwu Bo. ”

It took a long time for the study to say: "What is the beginning?" ”

"He robbed the people's daughters and framed Dingwu Bo as a rebel party of Maitreya."

...

"Uncle, this small Qiantang County is really rich..."

Zhao Xin lifted the jewelry in the box, then turned his head and smiled: "Qi Shangwen, this old boy is really rich, Liu Weisi's gang must be even richer than him." ”

Chen Cao folded the 100,000 taels of silver tickets in his hand in half, and then sneered: "Do you know that the wealth of the entire Ming Dynasty is concentrated in Zhejiang?" In the past, it was always said that Jiangsu and Zhejiang were rich, but in fact, Nanzhili was only half of Zhejiang, and the richest in the entire Ming Dynasty was Zhejiang, especially the coastal mansion. ”

Zhao Xin smiled, and then said: "The subordinates didn't follow the uncle, there will be things in the future." ”

"Yo, your kid's eyesight is really poisonous, but let me tell you, this group of people is easy to talk about things, but if you want their money, it's like killing your parents."

"That uncle," Zhao Xin became interested: "How much chance do you think you have of winning by using the means to deal with the Cao Gang against these Zhejiang people?" ”

"Ichisei ..."

"Ichisei?" Zhao Xin's mouth opened wide in surprise: "Uncle, are you kidding me?" ”

Chen Cao took a sip of tea and said, "You think I'm joking?" You look at what happened to Lao Xu and them, the Cao Gang can rebel because they have control, but Zhejiang people are different, as long as they have money, these people can summon those outlaws, I am thinking, the people they summoned this time, when there are many untouchables involved, their cognitive attitude towards the court is very low, once they are bewitched, next time, it will not be as simple as killing six or seven people, at least ten times or even a hundred times. ”

"Uncle, what should we do?"

Chen Cao put down the teacup and frowned: "Li Yangchong is not comparable to Li Weihan's house, the business scope of Tongji Commercial Bank covers the entire Ming Dynasty, if you want to eat him, you have to find a full opportunity, and you have to be fully prepared, just like this, you also need to have a mouth that can block the mouths of the court, otherwise, hehe... The Donglin Party knew that I was moving their interests, so they had to come to Jinling in person to pick up the ancestral grave of my Chen family. ”

"Why don't you start with Zhang and I?" Zhao Xin asked tentatively.

Chen Cao's brows relaxed: "That's right, Zhang I continued that the old thief heard that he wanted to be promoted from the appointment of the left servant of the household department to the first level of Shangshu, and he paid a lot of money up and down, and it seems that even Feng Yan accepted his benefits." ”

"This old guy bets on both ends, and he's a little shrewd..."

Chen Cao smiled: "His Hangzhou Commercial Bank has a wide range of trade, just listen to you, start with Zhang and I, and then go to Li Yangchong, hehe, a Qiantang county is so rich, if it is someone else..."

"Uncle Qiqi, they have changed their clothes."

Chen Cao stood up and walked to the front yard, where he saw Xu and the rescued woman sitting in the pavilion, and when Chen Cao approached, the two got up together to salute Chen Cao.

"The folk woman (folk girl) has seen the uncle..."

Chen Cao sat down and motioned for the two of them to sit too, and then asked, "Xu, what is your real name?" How old is this year? ”

"The woman's real name is Xu Ling, and she is twenty-seven years old this year." Xu Ling was a little embarrassed.

Chen Cao was very satisfied, and then said: "Okay, you don't need to call yourself a woman in the future, you can call yourself whatever you want, just cook for Benbo in the future, you don't have to worry about the rest." What is this girl called? ”

"People's daughter Su Manwen, Uncle Xie's life-saving grace."

"Su Manwen..."Chen Cao read word by word, feeling a different flavor: "Why would you..."

Su Manwen bowed his head embarrassedly: "Don't dare to deceive the uncle, the people's daughter's family is poor, and when she goes to the street today, she also wants to go to the tea house to sing songs for the guests and earn some money to support the family, how do you know that such a thing happened." ”

Chen Cao nodded, feeling that it would definitely not be good if he was a dignitary, and others felt that he was bullying others in addition to being a pervert: "Where does the girl's family live?" Ben sent for you to be sent back. ”

Su Manwen got up and saluted: "Uncle Xie, the folk girl has been delayed for a long time, and she has to go to get medicine for her father and go home, so thank you Uncle Xie." ”
