He ordered the ignorant scribes in the archives to retrieve the transfer orders of Jinyiwei from Xizhou, Dongfu, Baixia, Langya, Stone City, and the southern suburbs of the capital in the past ten years.
Lu Bai kept an eye on it, and instead of getting straight to the point, he used a blind trick.
In this way, these people will not know what he is going to check for a while.
"In addition, sort out for me the files of the four cities of Xizhou, Dongfu, Baixia, and Langya in the past ten years." Lu Bai found a seat to sit down, and asked someone to clear the table in front of him.
The clerks in the docket had a confused look on their faces. They looked at each other for a while before taking action. They rummaged through the docket and placed some dockets in front of Lu Bai in an orderly manner.
Lu Bai flipped through it casually at first, and after Jin Yiwei put all the case files in front of him one after another, he went straight to the case files in Langya City, and directly found Fu Baihu's file from the transfer order in Langya City, and then found Fu Baihu's file from the transfer order in the southern suburbs of the city.
Found out Fu Baihu's information.
You don't need to look at the trajectory of ten years ago, just look at the promotion of Fu Baihu's son after the disappearance mentioned by Zuo Peiyang in the case file.
Lu Bai soon found out that Fu Baihu was promoted from the general banner to deputy 100 households on the recommendation of Dongchang, and was promoted after the approval of the thousands of households in Langya City.
In the promotion and transfer order, there is also Dongchang's evaluation of Baihu: no matter how big or small, he is fierce and popular.
Lu Bai took out the promotion order and frowned slightly.
There seems to be nothing wrong with this transfer order. It is a very proper procedure. Dongchang is already responsible for supervising Jinyiwei, so in addition to Jinyiwei's own transfer, Dongchang can also recommend it.
However, what is normal elsewhere is questionable here.
He read the transfer order carefully. When he saw the recommender column, Lu Bai's eyes paused and he was overjoyed.
The person who recommended the recommendation was unknown to Lu Bai. His name was Qi Xi'er, which was an obvious eunuch's name.
But Dongchang only has the right to recommend, but not to appoint, and the appointment certificate in Lu Bai's hand was signed by a fellow Jinyiwei commander ten years ago.
This commander's colleague had a name that Lu Bai was very familiar with - Xiao Zhan.
"It's interesting." Lu Bai chuckled.
He continued to look at Fu Baihu's subsequent transfer orders. Not long after he became Deputy Baihu, Baihu was transferred away, and Deputy Baihu became the Baihu of the Guards. There was also a witness on it that Ming Zhengsi had dealt with Baihu's realm.
As for whether Fu Baihu's realm was really like this or whether Fu Baihu had created a set of false proofs, Lu Bai didn't know.
After eight years of serving as a hundred households in Langya City, Fu Baihu did not climb up the ranks. Instead, he was transferred to the hundred households office in the southern suburbs of the capital to continue serving as a hundred households.
This transfer order seems to be a normal one, but in fact it is a promotion.
At the feet of the Emperor, outside the capital, the hundred households here in the guardhouse far exceed the hundred households in Langya City in terms of status and financial prospects.
Lu Bai took another look at Tiao Ling.
This time, the commander of Jinyiwei was transferred directly, and Xiao Zhan was that commander.
From this point of view, Xiao Zhan is inseparable from this Fu Baihu.
Lu Bai then scanned the others, and after seeing that he couldn't find any clues in Fu Baihu's transfer order, he chose to check the case files handed over by Langya City in the past ten years.
Generally speaking, whether it is to show merit or for archiving, the cases investigated by Jinyiwei must be kept in the archives, and the archives in various locations will regularly submit the files to Jinyiwei in the capital.
Beizhen Fusi will keep these case files in the case file library to prevent them from being used occasionally.
Lu Bai is using it now.
He went straight to the file submitted by Fu Baihu, which clearly recorded the cases that Fu Baihu had handled in the past ten years. Lu Bai browsed all the way. From the time Fu Baihu took the position of deputy 100 households, the first case was the monk with a face.
He operated and destroyed a face-masking monk's den in Langya City.
The result of the battle was that the leader escaped and a group of minions were captured.
Then, almost all the cases in Fu Baihu's hands were related to children, and both face-masking monks and human traffickers were Fu Baihu's key targets.
But not all of the cases Fu Baihu handled were against child trafficking.
There is a Taoist temple on the outskirts of Langya City called Taixu Temple.
After someone's child was lost, someone saw his child being mentioned to the Taixu Temple. Later, the news spread, and many people in Langya City believed that the Taixu Temple was the nest of the child-eating demon.
The rumor became an outlet for many parents who had lost a child.
They gathered together and attacked Taixu Temple with swords, guns and sticks, trying to flatten Taixu Temple, kill the child-eating demon, avenge the child, and rescue the child.
However, during the impact, Fu Baihu led the Jin Yiwei to arrive, dispersed the people, and rescued Taixu Guan.
Jin Yiwei also received a tip-off that someone was taking advantage of the famine to purchase children, and was suspected of raising dead men. Fu Baihu was responsible for investigating, and later closed the case on the grounds that the person was buying slaves.
In addition, there was another case that attracted Lu Bai's attention.
In order to deal with the food-eating demon, the people of Langya City hired two swordsmen and an exorcist priest. In the case file Fu Baihu brought up, he mentioned that the two swordsmen were liars and had been brought to justice.
As for the exorcist priest——
He didn't know what killed him, so he asked Baihu to investigate the case. The last submitted case file was deemed to be an unsolved case, and nothing was found.
Normally, Lu Bai really didn't think these cases had anything to do with it, but now that he knew the details about Fu Baihu, Lu Bai couldn't even think about it anymore.
In his opinion, Fu Baihu must have played a disgraceful role in these cases.
Finally, Lu Bai uncovered a case that transferred Fu Baihu to the capital: By chance, Fu Baihu personally caught a bird that specialized in kidnapping children, and he thought it was the legendary child-eating devil.
But later, because the ogre devil committed another crime, I realized that this monster was not a monster.
When Lu Bai saw this, he smiled slightly.
He has a guhu bird in his hand.
The monster Guhuoniao is a gathering of grievances and has a very high level, which cannot be captured by a hundred households.
I don’t know who is behind this.
However, one thing is certain, Xiao Zhan is definitely inseparable from this kid.
He stood up, walked to the door of the case library, and said, "Invite Commander Xiao and Comrade Xiao to come over."
Ever since Lu Bai was promoted to Commander, Xiao Zhan took a step back and became Commander Tongzhi.
The Jinyiwei Baihu who thought he was important to Lu Bai hurriedly came forward and said, "Master, Mr. Xiao is already waiting outside."
After Lu Bai became the Marquis of Shuo Bei and was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, this was the first time he came to Beizhen Fusi. Moreover, with such a big battle, Xiao Zhan naturally did not dare to neglect, and rushed over after hearing the news.
After hearing that Lu Bai didn't allow anyone to enter the archives, he really stayed outside.
no way.
What scares Lu Bai most now is not the identity of the Marquis and the commander, but the unfathomable background.
He can summon all the gods in the sky, so what is there that Lu Bai doesn't dare to do?
He had a grudge against Lu Bai, so Xiao Zhan felt that he had to be more careful.
"Then invite him over." Lu Bai said.
It happened that the archives were surrounded by people, and no news could be leaked for a while.
Xiao Zhan walked in quickly.
He bowed respectfully to Lu Bai, showing no trace of jealousy or hatred towards Lu Bai for coming up from behind. "Xiao Zhan has met the Marquis. I have been waiting for the Marquis to come these days. I have the seal of command."
Ready."
Lu Bai waved his hand, "There's no rush in this matter. I have a case on hand that involves you. That's why I'm here today."
The smile on Xiao Zhan's face froze when he heard this, and he felt very uneasy in his heart. He thought Lu Bai was going to pursue his past crimes, "Hou, Mr. Hou, what case am I, what?"
Lu Bai handed the transfer order in his hand to Xiao Zhan, "Is this Langya City Hundred Household transferred to the southern suburbs by Mr. Xiao?"
Xiao Zhan took it suspiciously, "Fu Baihu?"
He couldn't remember this person for a while, but when he saw Lu Bai staring straight at him again, he said with a dry smile: "This name, at first glance, seems to be the material for a Baihu."
"Stop interrupting!" Lu Bai said bluntly.
He pointed at the seals and names on the three transfer orders, "From the chief banner to the deputy 100 households, the deputy 100 households were promoted to 100 households, and then from the 100 households in Langya City to the 100 households in the southern suburbs of the capital, you signed these.
The seal is stamped with the words "."
His tone became serious, "If you can't remember it, I don't mind helping you think about it more."
These clearly threatening words made Xiao Zhan smart.
He hurriedly used his brain, and finally found the memory related to Fu Baihu's name in a corner.
"I remembered!" he said happily.
Fu Baihu was originally recommended by the eunuch Qixi'er who worked for the factory owner of Dongchang, and was personally forwarded to Xiao Zhan by the factory owner.
At first, the factory owner only asked him to be promoted, but Xiao Zhan promoted him to the position of deputy 100 households and asked him to forge a certificate of Ming Zhengsi's realm.
The second promotion was directly recommended by the factory owner, and Xiao Zhan promoted him to the position of Baihu.
"I thought this Fu Baihu was a relative of the factory owner or something, and then I paid more attention to him."
It's a pity that even if Xiao Zhan wanted to give him a chance to be promoted, Fu Baihu wouldn't give him a chance, because Fu Baihu's level could never be improved.
Hearing this, Lu Bai smiled disdainfully, "Why, the fake voucher can't be issued? It's impossible."
"Ahem."
Xiao Zhan coughed awkwardly.
In fact, he wanted to promote him and told the boss of Dongchang about this idea.
Who would have thought that Mr. Fat Factory actually refused, saying that Fu Baihu's level was enough to be a member of a hundred households. If he continued to be promoted, then don't blame them for being rude to the East Factory.
When Xiao Zhan heard this, Monk Zhang Er was confused at that time. He didn't know for a moment whether the factory owner really liked this Jin Yiwei or had a grudge against this Jin Yiwei.
However, for a long time afterwards, the factory manager did not mention this person, so Xiao Zhan let it go.
Until a few years ago, the factory owner suddenly said to him: "It's time for Fu Baihu to make a move. He can just be transferred to the Hundred Household Office in Nanjiao City."
He kept thinking about it, but he was not allowed to lift it up. Xiao Zhan didn't even know what kind of medicine was sold in the factory gourd.
But he still followed his words and transferred Fu Baihu to the Baihu Office outside the southern suburbs of the city.
Later, Xiao Zhan stopped paying attention to him.
"Master Hou, what did Fu Baihu do?" Xiao Zhan asked curiously.
"he died."
Xiao Zhan waved his hands hastily, "This has nothing to do with me."
"I know it has nothing to do with you." Lu Bai said angrily.
He continued to open the cases that Fu Baihu had investigated.
After working at the Hundred Household Office in the southern suburbs of the capital, the cases Fu Baihu investigated changed significantly. Although the cases of child abduction and face-masking monks were still being solved, there were obviously fewer cases, and there were more common cases.
For example, the charcoal shortage case in the charcoal store, the fish throwing case in the fish store, the grain theft case in the grain store, the water ghost case in the shipbuilding store, the teacher murder case in the construction company, etc., involving all walks of life, they don’t sound like big cases.
.
As a hundred households in the southern suburbs of Beijing, it is normal to investigate these cases.
The southern suburbs of the capital were originally a gathering place for these traders and merchants.
The only interesting case was that of a Jin Yiwei who fell into a cult, but this Jin Yiwei had already been investigated and dealt with, so there was nothing unusual about it.
Lu Bai saw that there were no new clues in the file, so he threw the file away and said, "Since it is the boss of Dongchang who promoted Fu Baihu - let's go, let's go meet the boss of Dongchang."
Xiao Zhan was stunned, "Me, I'm going too?"
"Nonsense, if you don't go and testify, what if the owner of Dongchang Factory doesn't admit it?" Lu Bai said.
Xiao Zhan was unwilling to go.
He still doesn’t know what the case is. What if it’s some serious case and the factory owner comes to try to solve it and let him follow suit?
However, Lu Bai did not give him a chance to express his unwillingness to go.
"Let's go and tell Dongchang by the way that Dongchang will not have to interfere with our Jinyiwei's affairs from now on." Lu Bai said and pulled him away directly.
Xiao Zhan secretly stuck out his tongue.
As expected of Shuo Beihou, what he said was very tough. If it were him, he would never dare to say this in front of the boss of Dongchang. After all, Dongchang has the responsibility of supervising the Jinyiwei.
The boss of Dongchang is the fat eunuch who suffered a loss at the hands of Lu Bai in the palace in the past.
The fat factory owner was startled when he heard that Lu Bai and Xiao Zhan were coming together. He wanted to hide away but it was too late. Lu Bai appeared in front of the lobby door in a flash.
Xiao Zhan hurriedly ran in from behind.
The fat factory man could only wipe the sweat from his forehead helplessly, "Master Lu, I have been busy these days and I haven't had time to congratulate you yet."
Lu Bai waved his hand, "Congratulations are unnecessary. If Mr. Factory Master can solve a puzzle for me, I will accept your kindness."
The fat factory master glanced at Xiao Zhan and saw that Xiao Zhan gave him a helpless look. He could only ask, "Master Marquis, please tell me."
"Do you know Fu Baihu?" Lu Bai said straight to the point.
The face of the fat factory man suddenly changed color.
He looked at Xiao Zhan again, hoping to get some answers, but Xiao Zhan was completely confused now.
"Do you recognize him?" Lu Bai asked again, his tone was unkind and full of coldness.
The fat factory man said smartly, "I know you, I know you."
He swallowed, "I, I recommended him to Mr. Xiao. Fu Baihu is indeed a rare talent. He has solved many major cases. Mr. Xiao should know this."
Only then did the fat factory man regain some confidence and said with a dry smile: "Master Hou, our recommendation of him is in compliance with the rules. I don't know why Master Hou thought of asking this today?"
"hehe."
Lu Bai sneered, "Fu Baihu died in Jinyiwei's prison, and he died with the prisoners I captured. This was a naked provocation to Jinyiwei. Of course I want to get to the bottom of it."
"What!"
The fat factory man was shocked, and the fat on his cheeks trembled with shock, "Died, died in Zhao Prison?"
Lu Bai ignored him and stared at him aggressively, "I wonder who recommended this person to the factory boss?"
"I, just, came here on the recommendation of my subordinates." The fat factory man reluctantly hesitated.
Lu Bai stood up and said, "The dead prisoner was an important witness in an important case I was investigating. He was silenced by Fu Baihu. Since the factory boss refuses to tell the truth, I can only ask you to go to Jinyiwei Zhao Prison."
.”
Xiao Zhan opened his eyes wide when he heard this.
When will Jinyiwei be able to invite Mr. Dongchang to prison?! (To be continued)
