Jinyi Night Walk

At the invitation of the heroine female surgeon and the charcoal of black powder, this chapter is called "Elder Master."

"How about it?"

"Yes...,...Little Miss..., and the three people she brought..."..."

"Did you catch it?"

"Back to the Elder Lord, I ran away. I don't know what method they used. There are so many people in Jin Yiwei, but they didn't catch them. Master Luo said, "Just "go down!"

"Yes!"

The old housekeeper subconsciously bowed through the door, and then quietly backed away.

In the study room, Xu Huizu brightened the wick, put the lampshade back on, leaned back on the chair, and sighed wearily.

Hearing that the younger sister was not left behind, Xu Huizu was a little disappointed, but also relieved.In the past few days, he lived alone in the study. The most important thing was that he was afraid of facing the tears of his third siblings, having hateful looks with his nephews and nieces, and even... his wife and children used Looking at him with strange eyes, even the wife of the second child secretly restrained her children, preventing them from appearing in front of him.

They don't know that the third child is dead, they just think that they put the third child in jail, that's the attitude, if they know...", although, he is still the head of the Xu family, and has the supreme authority in the Xu family status, but he has a feeling of betrayal.

"Did I really do something wrong?"

Xu Huizu subconsciously remembered that day again.

Zhu Yunfen was so enraged by Xu Huizu's words that he took off the sword from the wall and stabbed Xu Zengshou in the chest "so fast that he didn't even have time to kneel down to beg for mercy. He really never thought of forcing the third brother Go to hell, as the eldest son of the Xu family, he has been accused of many responsibilities and obligations since he was a child. At that time, he only wanted to tie up his third brother and ask the emperor for sins, "fulfilling the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and protecting Xu Jiaying's name and safety. The whole door goes up and down "...

At that time, relying on the Xu family's great contributions to Daming's victory in the country, and relying on the iron certificate of the alchemy book bestowed by the Emperor Taizu, no matter how hard you ask, the third brother's life will be spared, but who knows...

He watched helplessly as the sharp long sword pierced into his third younger brother's chest, viciously and without hesitation.

He was sad, but he couldn't afford to hate the emperor.The power of the emperor and the emperor is ordered by heaven." Does the emperor need a reason to take someone's life? Shouldn't it?

The Xu family is the first family of the Ming Dynasty, but the family is not a powerful family. The powerful families in the Han and Tang Dynasties were only attached to and used the imperial power. "The only thing they are loyal to is their own family, but the family is completely dependent on the imperial power for their own survival. Xu Huizu He has a very orthodox idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor.

He doesn't hate the emperor, he hates Yan's wife, he hates the spies of King Yan, and he hates the third brother for being confused.

So when Luo Kedi, who rushed to grab only one corpse upon hearing the news, wanted to conceal the news of Xu Zengshou's death and used Xu Zengshou as bait to lure King Yan's people into taking the bait, he readily agreed.

Luo Kedi's careful deployment for so long still failed tonight, and then "it's time to announce the news of the third child's death. At that time" will the family believe it, what will Miao Jin think, and how should I face all my relatives?

Xu Huizu sighed for a long time, put his elbows on the table, and covered his face wearily.

In just a few days, he has aged a lot.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Dang, Dangdang..."

"In response to the order of the Tianfu, all the streets and alleys, men, women, young and old, who open their doors for business or close their doors to live, all let me hear clearly. From now on, anyone who is not a permanent resident will report to the yamen. They all stared wide-eyed. Look, the store at home, the neighbors in the neighborhood, regardless of visiting relatives and friends, working in the store, even beggars begging along the street, if they see a strange face, they will all report to the government. If they catch criminals, report them. If the criminals are caught first by the government, and those who know about it but refuse to prosecute, they will all sit together as accomplices!"

Everywhere in the streets and alleys, there are township Dingdibao sent by the government to announce the news to the people with gongs.Those who showed up that night, including Xia Xun, were all drawn by the government and posted all over the streets and alleys.

On the street of Luanshi Lane, the shopkeeper who sells duck blood soup has not seen that big-bellied man come to drink two bowls of duck blood soup and eat six slices of scallion pancakes for several days. The shopkeeper misses it very much. , smiled and said: "The shopkeeper, three bowls of duck blood soup, six pieces of scallion pancakes, take them away."

"Okay, okay!" The shopkeeper became excited when he saw the business coming.

The proprietress next to him gave him a hard elbow, and the shopkeeper suddenly came to his senses. He quickly widened his eyes and asked, "Why do you buy so much? Can't you eat here?"

"Hey, I said you care so much, my family has a large population, the old ones and the young ones, it's not convenient to come out."

"Inconvenient? Why don't you start a business at home, come from out of town? Lu Yin shows it out and I'll take a look."

Diagonally opposite, a family of chimneys had just smoked, and several police officers rushed in: "How many people are there in the house? Come out, come out, check! One, two, three, four, Liu Jian , go look inside the pot, and cook meals for several people!"

The inspection at the gate of the city became more stringent. People leaving the city lined up in a long line. All kinds of cars, no matter what kind of nobleman's car they were driving, or grain trucks, were climbed up and turned inside out. There are also many spies swaying around, and when they see a suspicious person, they immediately rush to control the person first.

In the Jinyiwei yamen, Luo Qianshi said coldly: "Now that I have the oracle in my hand, what kind of people can't I enter? What kind of people can't I arrest? Tell Yingtianfu and Wucheng Bingmasi that anything , I will bear it, search it for me, and turn the entire Jinling City upside down for me. With the method of sitting together, I can force all the people in the city to be my eyes and ears. Even if they hide nine times deep, I can force them out. "

"Yes!"

Chen Dong agreed and hurried out.

Luo Kedi picked up the tea and glanced at Ye An again: "Those city foxes and social mice..." "Don't worry, my lord, those rascals, people from Yingtianfu and Wucheng Bingmasi don't know about it. Just ignore them, now that we are forcing them to beat them, these people are also moving, the corners of the walls, the cracks in the gutters and other places that we can't sweep are all their eyes and ears, Yang Xu and the others It’s hard to survive in a place like this. "

"Well, our people have all withdrawn?"

Ye An said: "Yes, our people on the bright side, as well as the power in the dark, are fully mobilized this time."

Luo Kedi smiled faintly, and put the cup to his mouth. Seeing this, Ye An retreated knowingly.

Liu Yujue at the side was a little restless, but Lord Luo didn't need him to show up this time, he knew what he was worried about." He secretly glanced at the expression on his face, but finally didn't dare to say the words of volunteering.

Luo Kedi was not at all ashamed by Xia Xun's escape, on the contrary, he was a little happy now.

Early this morning, he entered the palace and reported the whole story of Yang Xu's escape to the emperor." And he added more details, describing Xia Xun's energy even more amazingly. He didn't want to shirk responsibility for the criminal who escaped right under his nose He just wanted to let the emperor know that King Yan's people had reached the point where they could call the wind and rain in Jinling City.

Sure enough, the emperor was shocked." Fang Xueshi was also shocked, and they were finally willing to delegate power.

The "imperial court" finally knows how stupid it is to lack a strong eyes and ears! "

It feels so good to be in power!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Even if the huge waves on the sea can overturn the [-]-ton ship, the bottom of the sea is still calm.

No matter how powerful Jin Yiwei's energy is, can it really turn a capital city upside down? [Answer] The answer is: No!With the ability of modern law enforcement agencies, it is impossible to clean all the corners of a city, let alone that era.

However, Luo Kedi not only mobilized the power of the government, the power of the underworld, but even used the deterrent power of the entire city to turn the entire city into his eyes and ears. This is something that modern law enforcement agencies cannot do. Therefore, he There are very few corners that the tiger's power cannot sweep.

There are very few, that is, there are still, for example, sending incense to the room.

The incense-sending room can not be found in the records of the 24 yamen of the 24th prison, the [-]th department, and the [-]th bureau of the Daming Palace. It does not have a formal institution name at all, but is only listed in a place under the Huanyi Bureau. The Huanyi Bureau is in the [-] Yamen Libi—an institution for eunuchs not located in the palace. Of course, the fragrant room is also outside the palace.

The Fragrance Delivery Room is responsible for thousands of toilets in the palace. Toilets are used in the palace, including bedpans, toilets, etc. There are no special toilets. How can such a smelly place be set up in the palace.In this way, there are thousands of toilets that need to be cleaned every day. These toilets are collected by the incense delivery room every day, transported out of Jinling City, cleaned, and then sent back to various corners of the palace.

The bedpan is filled with charcoal ashes, which are specially prepared for defecation. It is enough to cover it with charcoal ashes after unloading hands. For urinating, use a pail, directly dissolve it inside, and then cover it with a lid.The toilets used by emperors and concubines are called "official rooms", also called "tigers", "beasts", and "horses".

Of course, the "official room" is very particular. It is usually made of wood, tin or porcelain, with a wooden frame on the side, an oval opening on the frame, and a cushion around it. There is a cover on the mouth, and the bedpan can be drawn out like a drawer. Pull, the stool has a backrest and is covered with soft lining, just like a sofa without armrests, sitting on it is no worse than the current toilet.

The most expensive "official house" belonged to Yu Chang, the king of Shu in the late Five Dynasties. It was inlaid with gold and jade, and it was extremely gorgeous. After Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin destroyed the Kingdom of Shu, he thought it was some kind of precious artifact when he got it. Mrs. Rui revealed its origin, and Lao Zhao happily put it on his Longshu table as a display.

But no matter how expensive it is, it is a thing for defecation and uncleanness, so the incense room cannot be set up in the palace.This place is on the west side of the imperial palace, a very remote place, the people who live in the compound of the fragrant room are old and ungracious eunuchs or guilty eunuchs, they are like a group of people who have been isolated and forgotten by the world , No one will ever respect them, although they are indispensable people in the palace every day.

So is there really only old and guilty eunuchs in this place, and no one else?The official line is this.In fact, it is like some regular employees of our current environmental sanitation bureau, who receive a monthly salary of 3000 to 800 yuan, and spend [-] yuan to hire someone, put on his uniform to clean the road section under his responsibility, play mahjong at home or find another job Just like job errands, this place also has a group of lower-level people than these lowest-level eunuchs and palace people, who work hard for them.

Therefore, although they do the most tiring and dirtiest jobs, they actually don’t even get paid a few pennies. They can only eat and drink. The only common treatment is that these people are also called father-in-law.

Not long ago, they had two more partners, one was quite strong, the other was as weak as a chick, the strong one was called Eunuch Xia, and the thin one was called Eunuch Xu...! ~!
