Chapter 002 The Window of Lijing
The magistrate of Wucheng County did not listen to Cui Jianfeng's reminder. In order to close the case as soon as possible, he blamed Cui Jianfeng for the delay in closing the "Rebellion Case" and secretly wrote a letter to the Jiangnan Province Inspector. The Inspector attached great importance to the progress of the case.
He immediately sent someone to supervise the matter, and at the same time sent an urgent and secret letter of 800 miles to the capital to ask the Ministry of Punishment for help.
As a result, the case quickly progressed. In view of the long delay in the case, the Ministry of Punishment reported the matter to the Judicial Council, an institution specially set up to monitor officials in order to change the dynasty.
The Senate was a tool that collected reports from the public to capture so-called information about officials in various places conspiring to rebel, to frame officials in the Tang Dynasty and implement cruel official politics.
Lai Junchen, the head of the Judicial Council, has a close relationship with the Minister of Justice and they use each other. The Ministry of Justice uses the informant channels controlled by the Judges’ Council to collect information on officials from various places, and the Council of Justice uses the investigation and arrest auxiliary system of the Ministry of Justice to quickly arrest people listed by it.
For officials from various places who are deliberately plotting rebellion.
The criminal investigation auxiliary system of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was actually composed of ruffians from all over the country who were engaged in undercover investigations. Such people were not called bad people at the time, but were only regarded as people with bad behavior, that is, they were secretly working for the government.
A local snake running errands.
And they are officially called bad people, no.
The good commander-in-chief was a thing during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms at the end of the Tang Dynasty. Modern people mistakenly put the crown of the Five Dynasties on the head of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, and let Li wear it. There is nothing we can do about it. Just because the Tang Dynasty was originally the Tang Dynasty.
It was built by Taizong Li Shimin. Just because it was not.
The word "good" is a fact of the Tang Dynasty and a manifestation of the Five Dynasties.
Lijingmen was just a place where various departments of the Tang Dynasty court concentrated their affairs. According to today's name, it is an office space where various departments come together to provide public services, similar to the government affairs hall. However, during the Zhou Wu period, because Wu Zetian was
Changing the Tang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty and setting up a special judicial body, Lijingmen became a nightmare for officials in the Tang Dynasty. This kind of disobedience did not have its status until the Five Dynasties.
The beloved man is a window on the upper floor of the Lijingmen office building in the Zhou Wu period of the Tang Dynasty.
Having said that, it was precisely because of Magistrate Zheng’s whistleblower that he attracted the attention of Lijingmen. As a result, the case was not concluded, but his own life was almost at stake. Just because he did not listen to Cui Jianfeng’s reminder and was eager for quick success, which backfired.
He regretted it too much.
This time, the Taoist government urgently formed a temporary cavalry team, mainly because the county government invited several unscrupulous people from Luoyang, the capital of China, to secretly track suspicious persons through them, and finally discovered the traces of the three snitches.
Because this kind of team that assists the government in arresting criminals, which is called bad people by the people, is an independent system composed of non-registered personnel. Therefore, although they are invited by the county government, their organization is tight and they are not affiliated with the county.
They ignored Cui Jianfeng's reminder and secretly focused on three suspicious people who lived next door to Chunlai Inn where Cui Jianfeng lived.
These unscrupulous people invited by the county government took advantage of the opportunity of the three people to go out one day and quietly entered their room. They found that they were carrying a large number of square-hole copper coins of the Tang Dynasty, which were suspected of being counterfeit coins of the Tang Dynasty. They immediately reported to Jiangnan Road
(In the Tang Dynasty, a virtual institution between the imperial court and the state government was equivalent to today's provincial level. It was mainly responsible for prosecutors. The Taoist supervisor was called an inspector at the time and was a third-rank official. He was mainly responsible for inspecting states and counties. Yes.
The official's dereliction of duty at the lower level has the power to procure and supervise.) The inspector reported a message, and the inspector urgently ordered the states and counties in Jiangnan Province to summon a group of recruited soldiers with their own mounts, swords and arrows, and assembled in the south of Wucheng.
Unexpectedly, those three people were extremely vigilant. When Zhu Guangcai led some officers and soldiers to ambush near his residence, they somehow discovered the ambush in advance and did not enter their residence again.
Because Zhu Guangcai was a fifth-grade Huaihua general who knew how to lead troops in battles, the county magistrate assigned the temporarily recruited soldiers to Zhu Guangcai's leadership. According to modern people's feelings, this temporarily recruited soldiers are equivalent to today's militia. However, Zhu Guangcai's
In this operation, nothing was harvested, so we had to withdraw the personnel and wait for the bad guys to find traces of those three people again.
In the Tang Dynasty, the people called this organization a bad person. It looked like a government-run organization, but in fact it was a non-governmental organization composed of non-registered personnel and secretly controlled and used by the government.
However, in the Tang Dynasty, there are actually differences between the words "bad."
Occupation, although it was real in the Tang Dynasty, was unknown, until the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, no.
Only good people have "name".
As for why it was associated with the Tang Dynasty by literati in the Qing Dynasty, we can only say that the meaning of the word "bad" is related to the so-called Lijingmen of the court intelligence agency in the Tang Dynasty. In other words, this agency often used the Lijingmen, which was affiliated to the Ministry of Punishment at that time.
The behavior is not.
Good informants collect information. Therefore, no.
As a kind of detective profession, although the good man appeared in the late Tang Dynasty, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, its role lasted throughout the entire Tang Dynasty, surpassing the era of its appearance, and became a mysterious landscape in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
No. The good guys are really powerful. As long as they are stimulated with money, they will give full play to their advantages and quickly achieve the purpose of tracking or chasing criminals. Of course, there is more water here. Together with Lijingmen, cruel officials are implemented.
Politics became an underground institution that the Tang Dynasty officials at that time talked about.
From a certain point of view, bad people are actually the government's eyes and ears who work undercover among criminal gangs after people with bad behavior are bribed by the government. Therefore, this joint governance mechanism of the Tang Dynasty
, played a more active role in social governance at that time.
Having said that, although the three people discovered the government ambush in time and escaped, they still did not escape the sight of the wandering ghost. Within a few days, their traces fell into the hands of a farmer who was plowing the fields in a certain village.
Discover it and report it to the county government immediately.
When the Wucheng county lieutenant who was interrogating the prisoner in the county government heard that his husband had reported the crime, he immediately rode to the south of Wucheng and passed the news to the Jiangnan Road temporary cavalry team that was assembled there on standby.
Zhu Guangcai immediately led his county cavalry team to join the cavalry sent by the Taoist government and pressed down on the place where the three snitches were found. As a result, he soon met the three snitches who were preparing to return to the mountainous area.
Zhu Guangcai thought he could catch these three unidentified thieves immediately.
Who would have expected that when these three people saw the government cavalry rushing over, they quickly took out something that looked like a pedal from their backpacks and stepped on it. The three pedals suddenly lifted into the air and flew into the sky in full view of everyone.
"Hot Fire Wheels," Zhu Guangcai exclaimed, pointing at the three people flying higher and higher in the sky and said, "These people have Hot Wheels."
"Hot Fire Wheel" is just a prop that appears in mythological stories, that is, the flying tool used by Nezha in the story of Nezha Caohai.
But what the three people in front of me used were not like the flaming circles that could fly into the air as mentioned in the legend, but square flat plates.
"That's not like Hot Wheels," Chen Yuntian shook his head and said, "They use flat plates instead of wheels."
"They are all flying things anyway. If we use horses to deal with them, there is no hope." Zhu Guangcai said helplessly as he looked at the three dots that were getting smaller and smaller.
"Forget it, they have escaped, we can only withdraw the team back to the county." Chen Yuntian also sighed in frustration and said to the officers and soldiers of the cavalry team who were looking at him.
"They're flying back again!" Just as Chen Yuntian and Zhu Guangcai were reluctantly gathering their team and rushing back, a Wucheng County government official suddenly pointed at the sky and screamed.
"Quick, quick," Chen Yuntian looked up at the three dots that were getting bigger and bigger, and his face turned pale with fright: "Hurry up and shoot with the crossbow, don't let them come down."
Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—
The knights immediately raised their crossbows from their horses and fired at the people on the Hot Wheels flying near them in the sky.
Arrow after arrow flew into the sky in a black mass, and then fell down again after a while.
One of the three Hot Wheels suddenly shook and began to fall, then lifted up again, flew for a while, and finally fell to a small slope a hundred meters away from the cavalry.
The other two snitches immediately changed direction, flew to the foothold of the injured accomplice, and dragged the accomplice with them to continue escaping.
"Hurry up!" Zhu Guangcai was anxious and hurriedly led his men and horses forward.
At this time, Cui Jianfeng rushed over. When he saw this stance, he reined in his horse and turned to run forward with Zhu Guangcai's cavalry. He wanted to order them to stop chasing, but unexpectedly, as soon as his horse rushed to the front row, he could not stop the horse.
Reins, because there is another row of horses galloping from behind.
As a result, the story at the beginning was triggered.
Only then did they realize that these three people not only had Hot Wheels, but also Flash Thunder.
Is this good enough?
Cui Jianfeng, who arrived later, was so angry after listening to the reports of the two assistants that he scolded his subordinates severely.
"When you meet these three people in the future, don't make any offensive moves." Cui Gong emphasized again: "You act blindly like this, which is tantamount to seeking death."
"Then don't you want to solve this case?" Chen Yuntian asked puzzledly.
Chapter completed!
