0099 Beggar's Nest
Immediately, two children came out with two children in their waists, and several people who followed him out carried children of different sizes, and the last four people each twisted an adult into the courtyard. Yu Weili found out that among the four people who were escorted out in the back, three were old men, and only one was a man in his prime who was still lame!
The three old ones were held and couldn't move. But the man in the prime of life resisted vigorously and fought endlessly with the Jinyi guard! It's just that his physical strength and skill are too far apart, and he was knocked to the ground with a few punches, and then he was pressed by his shoulders and knelt there.
These people, whether they are old people or children, are all pressed to the ground and kneel, and the adults have insight, and when they see the clothes of the other party's Yishui brocade guards, they have already turned pale with fright, their bodies are weak, and they are honestly kneeling there. And those children, the youngest of which was seven or eight years old, and the eldest was only eleven, twelve, or thirteen, who didn't understand anything, and kept struggling and shouting in the hands of Jinyiwei.
By this time, the children's cries had already alarmed the surrounding neighbors, and someone on the wall next door poked their heads out to see what was going on. Liu Shan raised the lantern to let the light shine on his clothes, and shouted loudly to the neighbor who only showed two eyes: "Look at it!" Jin Yiwei does things, and he who doesn't want to die honestly goes into the house and stays! ”
Before he could finish speaking, the man had already retracted his head. Then the neighbors left and right were the sound of people flipping on their backs for a while. Soon everyone around them was quiet.
This is the last person to enter the house, who has finished searching inside, came out and said: "Second young master, the search inside is finished, there is no one!" ”
Liu Haojia said casually: "When you do things in the future, you will call me Lord!" Okay, leave someone to watch the child, and bring the four adults into the house for questioning. ”
After speaking, Liu Haojia stepped into the room. There was a strange smell in the room, and things were even more messy! Even then, it can be seen that there are only some tattered cotton wool and simple daily necessities. It seems that these people are living very poorly.
Zhao Mingyang stepped forward and picked a stable one among the only three remaining stools, then wiped it clean and asked Liu Haojia to sit down. After Liu Haojia sat down, he said to the four kneeling people: "You know who we are, right?" ”
The four of them nodded in fright! In their eyes, this person in front of them is like a giant beast in the wilderness, and it doesn't take much to crush them than a bed bug! It's just that at this time, they still wonder how they can provoke Jinyiwei?
Liu Haojia said: "The people under this official have been observing you for a long time, you are the lowest beggar in the Beijing Division!" The old are old, the young are small, not to mention having a full meal, and they are often out of cooking! But now that the official has taken a fancy to you, he will run errands for the official in the future, so it's okay to eat and drink enough! If the errand is done well, it is not impossible to have a meal of wine and meat! ”
One of the older beggars seemed to be the main one of these people, and he clasped his head again and again and said: "This lord, the little people are just beggars, and they can't help the adults, so please let us go!" ”
Liu Haojia said with a smile: "You old man is smart, and you know that things related to Jinyiwei are great things!" But you don't want to think about it, do you have room to refuse your own officials? ”
When the old man heard this, he was stunned, and then tears fell from his eyes. Then he kowtowed and said, "My lord, you want the life of the little old man to take it, but can the adults let these children go, they are still young and won't talk nonsense!" ”
Liu Haojia laughed and said, "You don't have to worry about them!" This official can guarantee that as long as you do your errands seriously, not only will they not have to worry about their lives, but they will also be well fed and clothed! If there is a smart one, you can send it directly to the school to study, and maybe you can produce a few reading seeds! ”
The old man's face was even more disgraced when he heard this, he thought that Liu Haojia was taking these children hostage. So he didn't say much more, but just knelt there and said, "What do you want to do, please tell me!" ”
Liu Haojia saw that they gave in so easily, and couldn't help but say with interest: "Why did you agree so quickly and didn't ask them what they thought?" ”
The old man said with a bitter face: "Didn't the adults say it, where can I refuse!" And if it weren't for these children, a few of us would have cut ourselves off a long time ago! As long as the children are okay, the four of us will die when they die! And these children may have a future with adults! ”
Liu Haojia saw that this old man understood things very well, and said in surprise: "I can't see that you are an old man who is smart!" ”
The old man said: "This adult, the little old man is sixty and three this year, but he has been a beggar for more than 30 years!" There are a lot of things to see in this Jingshi, and there is nothing that can't be seen! ”
Liu Haojia nodded and said: "Seeing that you understand it so well, that official can explain to you the whole story, and I can't say that I will have to use your not confused head in the future!" ”
Liu Haojia sat up straight and said, "You know that our Jinyi Wei is the eagle dog of the Son of Heaven, specializing in inquiring about all kinds of news!" And the most well-informed people in the Jingshi are probably the people in your lower nine ranks! And the least noticeable of the lower nine are beggars! Therefore, this official intends to integrate the beggars of the Beijing Division and set up a gang, called the Beggars Gang, so that it is convenient to find out the news! At this time, firstly, secondly, there are many black sheep in the group of beggars in Jingshi, but they are upset and ready to get rid of them one by one! So I found that a few of you are still kind, can protect a few children, and do not use them as a tool to collect money, so this official gave you a chance to serve! ”
When the four of them heard this, they woke up like a dream! It turned out that it wasn't a disaster, it was a big pie that smashed into the face! At that moment, the four of them buckled their heads again and again, saying that they wanted to serve His Majesty and listen to Liu Haojia's assignment!
Liu Haojia waved his hand to calm them down and said, "There are rules for doing things with me!" If you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you do badly, there will be a punishment, even if you lose your life, it is not unusual! Today, I'll tell you the first rule, which is to be strict! Remember, once the news is leaked, you will be executed directly, there is nothing to negotiate! ”
When the four of them heard this, they were even more frightened and kowtowed, and they all said that they would keep it a secret. When they quieted down, Liu Haojia said: "I know that there is a group of people nearby, who not only participate in the abduction and trafficking of young children, but also mutilate the bodies of young children, and make them disabled to accumulate money, so this official decided to take them under the knife tonight, who of you knows where they live?" ”
At this time, the old man who was kneeling on the side suddenly straightened up and said loudly: "My lord, I know! If the adults go to arrest him, the villain is willing to lead the way! ”
