Chapter 90: Strengthening the Six Gates
Qin Chuan picked up a soldering iron and approached it, which was quite smoky.
"Hahaha - Qin Chuan, others recognize you as the emperor, but Lao Tzu doesn't recognize you! You say that you are a special drunkard who has done so many things that lack virtue and conscience, and you are also worthy of being the emperor? Ahh ”
"Hmm...... I am a subordinate three-rate, you are no better, heaven and earth are unkind, all things are dogs, everyone is a ninth-rate, I have never been a noble person. ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's punish the master!"
Wang Wenzhi, who was standing next to him, was embarrassed, and it was inappropriate to say anything, so he could only shut up.
In fact, Wang Wenzhi still relented, he punished this hard-hearted Zhou Jichen very little, just grinding his tongue, at most it was stick punishment and whipping, and the two brothers of the Zhou family have been in the barracks for a long time, and this punishment is pediatrics.
Qin Chuan threw away the soldering iron: "Uncle Guo, go find some writing paper and make a pot of wine." ”
Wang Wenzhi was puzzled: "Holy Lord, what do you mean?" ”
"Just do it and you'll understand."
It's hard to find paper and wine, there are a lot of them in the yamen.
The things rested on the table, and Qin Chuan ordered: "Stick the paper on his face, and then spray a sip of wine." ”
Qin Chuan has seen the 'sticking officials' in the TV series, which is very exciting, and no one can survive such a punishment, especially the people in the officialdom.
There was no such punishment in Daxia, Wang Wenzhi still did it, and sprayed it with a sip of wine.
That week, Jichen instantly had difficulty breathing, and his limbs struggled uncomfortably.
Qin Chuan sat down and poured himself a drink: "This wine is rose dew, it tastes okay, and then paste one for the third son, and invite him to have a drink." ”
"Hmm...... Uh-huh-hmm......"
It's only two, and Zhou Laosan can't hold it anymore.
Wang Wenzhi: "Your Majesty, he's dying." ”
"Tear it off and let him catch his breath."
The paper was cut off, and Zhou Jichen's eyes were numb, glowing with daylight, and he was weak: "Qin ...... Qinchuan ...... You bastard, you want to kill ...... If you want to kill, kill it, and give less to Lao Tzu...... Come to this set. ”
"Answer me, who else is the person who conspired to kill the princess but you?"
"And ...... And your ancestors. ”
"Go ahead."
Qin Chuan has to admire this guy, if he is a loyal minister, he must be a good hand at fighting, but unfortunately, he is full of pretending to be the Zhou family, this kind of person is not loyal, and the rebellion will be very powerful.
After three successive 'sticking officials', Zhou Jichen still didn't hold on, and now he doesn't even have the strength to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
Qin Chuan took a sip of wine and looked calm: "How is it, have you thought clearly, who else?" ”
"Whew...... Whew......"
Zhou Jichen gasped and didn't speak.
"Go ahead."
"Don't! - I said, I ...... I say. ”
Hmph, no matter how tough a man is, he can't bear the torture of breathlessness, the key is not one-time torture to the end, but repeated torture, this is psychological warfare.
He said: "Also, there is my second brother, my second brother Zhou Zongren." ”
After saying the name of the second brother, Zhou Jichen cried, he wanted to die, but there was no chance to die.
To grasp Zhou Zongren's matter, Qin Chuan handed it over directly to Wang Wenzhi.
Wang Wenzhi took more than 30 people from Dali Temple to Zhou Dewei's new house, which was given to him by Qin Chuan.
Everyone in the family was there, but Zhou Zongren didn't come out.
This guy ran away, God knows how he got the news, the house was searched up and down, and no one was found.
Later, according to the internal guard report of Yang Qianxue, Zhou Zongren was when the people from Dali Temple went to his house, he suddenly felt something was wrong and left through the back door, hesitating to disguise himself, so no one knew where he went.
Qin Chuan didn't kill Zhou Jichen, this person was still useful to keep.
A month passed, and once things went smoothly, the days flew by.
The number of internal guards has grown to six or seven hundred, which were selected from the Beijing division and sent to various places in batches, and as a master, lurking around officials at all levels in other provinces, especially Zhou Dewei's relatives and friends, they were sent first.
It is easy to appoint and dismiss ordinary officials, but it is difficult to have specific candidates for several internal core organs of the imperial court.
One of the most important links is the leadership of the six doors.
Like the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, the Six Gates are judicial yamen, but in this dynasty, the affairs under their jurisdiction are different.
In other dynasties, the Six Doors were the general name for all the Yamen who died in Beijing, but in the Great Xia Dynasty, the Six Doors were separated.
The Criminal Department is in charge of the cases of ordinary people and low-level officials, and Dali Temple is responsible for the cases of officials above the third grade, as well as the cases of the emperor's relatives and relatives. The six doors are mainly responsible for dealing with the affairs of strongmen on the rivers and lakes, and rarely ask about the affairs of officialdom.
Because of this, Six Doors has been lukewarm for decades, and even Zhou Dewei, who is the prime minister, looks down on it.
However, in the six doors, from the general leader to the head catcher, and then to the underground catcher, the work is very mediocre, since the first emperor ruled, it is an empty and famous institution, the total number of people is less than 300 people, like an ornament, also known as the most idle yamen.
This is completely different from the six doors in Qin Chuan's impression.
The six doors of ancient times, how can they not know martial arts, how can they not restrain and control the people and horses of the rivers and lakes.
On this day, Qin Chuan came to the six gates, and the general leader of three hundred people came to receive him.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
There were few people in the yamen, and they all went out to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, which was their daily routine.
"I'll take a look, who recommended you?"
"Back to the emperor, the minister is the martial champion of the seventh year of Daozheng, and he was appointed by the Ministry of Officials to serve in the six doors."
Daozheng is the name of the first emperor.
Qin Chuan: "I have checked the classics of Great Xia, when our Great Xia was first founded, there were more than 7,000 people in the six gates, and each of them was extraordinary, I didn't expect it to become a dispensable yamen now." I have already put the people of the Guozijian in charge of Enke, this election, civil and military exams together, your martial arts must be practiced more, and after a while, I will arrange for someone to come to you as the commander-in-chief. ”
His own consul was about to be overthrown, but Commander-in-Chief Yang didn't say much, the emperor opened the golden mouth, and even the officials had to keep their mouths shut.
"What? Uncomfortable? I'm going to re-plan the six gates, and from tomorrow onwards, all the people in the six doors will start practicing martial arts, and tomorrow morning, I'll come over to see how you're doing. You will not feel inferior to the person you have assigned. ”
The candidate in my heart, Qin Chuan already has it, it is Qin Yue who is locked up in the Zongren Mansion.
After leaving the six gates, his next place was to go to the Zongren Mansion.
Qin Yue was locked up in a very remote place, there was no one around to serve him, there were dead leaves and broken bricks everywhere in the yard, and there were snakes, insects, rats and ants.
He was alone in the yard fighting crickets, stupid, and wearing his own python robe.
