The darkness hidden beneath the prosperity is the most shocking thing.
I originally thought it was a prosperous and prosperous world, but after a deeper understanding, I discovered that the evil in the darkness is so shocking.
Jia Rong took a bunch of radish heads from the Ningrong and Lin families to go out to watch the lanterns during the Lantern Festival. He was not interested in guessing lantern riddles with the children.
I just happened to catch two waves of kidnappers, so I simply planned to walk around the streets with the patrolling troops from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to catch the culprits.
However, the result was definitely beyond his expectation.
Following the little guys who were playing around, they caught four waves of kidnappers and rescued six children who were from official families in Xicheng.
As for petty theft, fifteen people were captured directly!
The most exaggerated thing is that he also encountered a gang of photographers who were committing crimes.
The targets targeted were a young lady and her maid who went out to watch the lanterns.
The plot is very simple, that is, a young lady and a maid from a certain official family met a certain "talented" down-and-out scholar while watching the lanterns.
In the process of guessing riddles, the down-and-out scholar showed off his "talent", which greatly attracted the favor of the ladies and maids from the official family.
I guess this pair of master and servant must have read too many novels like "The Romance of the West Chamber".
Once you have a good impression, things will be easy after that.
The down-and-out scholar chatted and laughed happily with the lady and maid from the official family, and then he enthusiastically invited the lady and the maid to participate in a lantern poetry party organized by a group of scholar ladies.
The young lady and the maid were both innocent in nature, and they actually agreed.
Following the down-and-out scholar whom he had just met, he walked out of the bustling main street filled with people and entered a deserted side street.
If Jia Rong hadn't happened to be wandering nearby and the powerful soul force noticed something was wrong, he would have appeared in time with a group of already convinced officers and soldiers from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and wiped out the down-and-out scholar and the helpers hiding nearby, I'm afraid there would have been
Something unspeakable happened.
Think about it, in this era of feudal ethics, once the lady from an official family was knocked unconscious, even if she was rescued in time, her reputation would be basically ruined.
Apart from anything else, it is basically impossible to get married in the capital in the future.
This method of photographing flowers is not surprising, but the effect is quite impressive. No wonder parents of some backgrounds are not happy for their daughters to read such miscellaneous books as "The Romance of the West Chamber".
Young ladies who have always been in a closed environment can easily lose their temper after reading a storybook like this.
What happened this time is the best proof.
The official lady who was almost unlucky actually knew, or was a relatively distant relative of, the leading officer of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.
The officer of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division was so angry that he gritted his teeth and hurriedly asked Jia Rong to send two female guards to follow him and send the official lady and maid home.
Naturally, Jia Rong would not refuse. It would be normal to act in this way, which would at least preserve the reputation of the official lady.
But despite this, the officer of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, who was born in Changning Marquis Mansion, was in a bad mood and face at this time.
It's not a good thing to arrest so many criminals in one night.
What does this mean? The security here in Xicheng is not as stable as it appears.
Thinking about it, it is understandable that even for the few children who were rescued, once their parents and families started to make trouble, the Wucheng Army and Horses Yamen would not be able to bear it.
Every year, the Lantern Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are periods of high incidence of accidents.
It would be considered abnormal if a dozen or so children were not lost at one time.
The origins of the lost children here in Xicheng are not simple.
Some of them were so powerful that they directly caused trouble in the Five Cities Military Division and the Shuntian Mansion Office. There were many big bosses who lost their jobs because of this.
Not to mention the distress of the officers from the Wucheng Military and Horse Division who were in charge of security patrols in the West City, the Ningrong Second Mansion here organized a team to watch the lanterns and began to return at this time.
Jia Baoyu, the phoenix egg, clamored to continue watching the lanterns, but unfortunately the girls had lost interest and were even scared of the idea.
Yes, Miharu and Lin Daiyu were shocked when they were photographed.
The news about this matter was not small, and Jia Rong had no intention of hiding it. Except for the name of the unfortunate official lady, the rest of the details were passed to their ears.
Facing society and its dark side for the first time can have a psychological impact on the little girls, and you can imagine the shock.
The environment they live in is quite comfortable, and the most they can do is make a fuss and get into trouble, and the only things they have seen are some of the tricks of the back house.
Where can I face such a bad behavior directly and have such a big impact?
In short, the little girls have no intention of playing anymore, so they simply go back home to calm down their shocked emotions.
As for Phoenix Egg, this guy finally got the chance to get close to Sister Lin, so naturally he was extremely reluctant to say goodbye.
No one in the group cared about Phoenix Egg's unreasonable request. The carriage, horse and guards quickly returned to Ningrong Street and then separated.
After sending Xichun and Qin Keqing back to Ning Mansion, Jia Rong did not go in. Instead, he turned his horse's head, captured several cavalrymen and rushed to the Wucheng Army and Horses Division's official office in Xicheng.
After all, I helped the other party arrest more than twenty criminals in one go, so it was unavoidable to make a simple record and go through the process.
However, as soon as I entered the lobby of the government office, I heard someone yelling.
At a glance, the officer from the Military and Horse Department of Changning Marquis Mansion was like Sun Tzu, being angrily scolded by a civilian official.
The content is very simple, just scolding the officers for not doing things well. How could there be so many criminals in Xicheng?
Especially among them there are four waves of kidnappers and a gang of photographers. When did the security in Xicheng become so bad?
In short, it means the same thing. Since the officer who came from the Changning Marquis Mansion is so good at doing things, all the subsequent cleanup work will be handled by him. Especially the pressure from the superior government must be borne by the officer.
What is this? This is Chi Luoluo’s blame-shifting!
At this time, Jia Rong also recognized the identity of this guy. He was the censor of Xicheng City Patrol.
Tsk tsk...
"Your Excellency, you are General Jia of Ning Mansion, right?"
The censor patrolling the west city also saw Jia Rong, turned around and walked over, cupping his hands and saying, "General Jia, can't you watch the lanterns and play, why are you so interested in messing around?"
"Your Excellency, please speak clearly!"
Jia Rong narrowed her eyes and spoke condescendingly: "I helped the officers and soldiers of the Military and Horse Division to take down dozens of criminals who were making trouble on the street. How did it become the so-called torment in your mouth?"
"The Army and Horses Division has its own rules and regulations, and there is no need for General Jia to dictate what to do!"
The Xicheng City Patrol Censor was dissatisfied and said: "General Jia's hand is too broad..."
