We entered the city before dark. Pedestrians on the street were walking in a hurry and there was no time for an ordinary carriage to go straight to the imperial city. Princess Kunxing poked her head out of the carriage and asked, "The Mid-Autumn Festival will be tomorrow. Will you enter the palace?"
Looking at her expectant eyes, Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Why do you think I came back to Beijing in a hurry? I just want to spend the holidays with you." This was a bit ambiguous. Princess Kunxing blushed and quickly retracted her head into the carriage.
He couldn't hide his joy, but he snorted: "Glib tongue, not a word of truth."
Chang Yu smiled and said nothing. When the carriage arrived at Xi'an Gate, the imperial city was locked. After Chang Yu opened the door, he said to Princess Kunxing: "I still have something to do, so I won't send you to the palace." Princess Kunxing looked a little disappointed.
Still he nodded obediently: "I've wasted your whole day and delayed so many things. Go ahead and do your work."
Chang Yu smiled and asked her: "Did you have fun today?" Princess Kunxing nodded vigorously.
"Since you are so happy, why waste talking about it?" Chang Yu chuckled. Princess Kunxing couldn't help but shiver and got goosebumps all over her body. She quickly retracted into the car. Why did this boy talk so flirtatiously today?
The gate of the imperial city slowly closed, leaving Chang Yu alone outside. He looked up at the tower for a while, then turned and glanced at the city wall, waved, and a person flashed out of the darkness. Chang Yu whispered a few words, then
The person quickly disappeared again.
Slowly walking north along the root of the Imperial City, there were not many pedestrians here, and the guards had begun patrolling. When they saw him riding a horse and sneaking under the Imperial City, they went forward to inquire. Chang Yu did not reveal his identity and was very cooperative.
He took Dongchang's waistband. Although the other party didn't recognize him, he recognized Dongchang's waistband and let him go immediately.
Chang Yu did not return home, but went straight to the Yamen. Chunxiang was not there, and after asking several people, they still had no idea where he was. He sat alone in the hall, drank a pot of tea, washed up casually, then left the Yamen again and went straight to the east of the city.
This time he did not ride a horse or ride in a car. He was walking alone on the street with his hands behind his back. He seemed to be an ordinary person, but passers-by couldn't help but look at him a few more times, because he had a knife on his waist, which was very rare in the capital.
Anyone who dares to lead someone upright is not an ordinary person.
I walked aimlessly through the streets, sometimes stopping to frown, sometimes lowering my head to meditate. After walking and walking for nearly half an hour, I got lost at the entrance of an alley. I saw people eating and chatting in front of a house, so I asked for directions, and I arrived there.
Near Chaoyangmen.
After identifying the direction and walking for a while, I walked out of the alley and onto the street. Just as I was breathing a sigh of relief, I suddenly heard a loud noise in front of me. When I looked up, I saw a group of people fighting, shouting and cursing, which attracted nearby people to watch from a distance.
Chang Yu walked over quickly out of curiosity and saw more than ten people fighting fiercely with sticks in front of an inn. Several people had their heads bruised and bloody, but the fierce look on their faces remained unabated. They kept shouting and drinking.
The curses and screams continued, and more and more people were watching, but no one dared to approach.
"Damn it, fighting twice in two days will make your life uneasy." An old man watching the excitement spat next to him. Chang Yu asked him curiously what was going on, but the old man said that it was two gangs fighting for territory, but he couldn't explain the details.
Fighting for territory? Chang Yu couldn't help but frown. When he took office, the situation was the most turbulent and the black forces in the capital were the most arrogant. Forty-nine cities were divided into multiple territories, and each territory had a leading boss.
The bosses all have backgrounds and backgrounds, and no one obeys the other. It is commonplace to bully the people. From time to time, they will fight over each other for territory, and dozens or hundreds of people can easily fight each other.
However, these black forces were quickly defeated by Chang Yu. He recruited more than ten leading figures from Sijiu City under his command, known as the Thirteen Taibao. Only he followed his lead. These ten people are now the original shareholders of Huangshang Octopus.
.
These ten or so people came ashore and became royal merchants and started serious business. However, in the underworld, they are still great masters who can shake the city with their stomps. It's just that they no longer make a living by running the dirty activities, or
Although they do not focus on those businesses, the order of the underworld is still under their control. No one dares to mess around. In the past year or so, there has been no talk of a fight over turf.
So Chang Yu was a little surprised by the scene in front of him. Could it be that there was a new force in the underworld in the capital? Or was it that some one was disobedient?
"Oh, it's killing, it's killing..."
Chang Yu was wondering when he suddenly heard an exclamation from the people next to him. Looking over there, he saw a thin man running out of nowhere with a short knife and rushing into the fighting crowd. He stabbed several people one after another, and he started quickly.
The hate was so shocking that the crowd couldn't help but scream, while the one who was stabbed scattered in panic.
This is a ruthless person and an unruly person!
You must know that gang fights mostly use sticks and rarely use knives. Even if they use knives, they will not be ruthless. And this man's knife will kill people, which is not bad. Chang Yu was surprised and wanted to draw the knife.
He moved forward to stop him, but at this moment he heard the sound of a gong, and a group of people shouted and rushed over. It turned out that people from the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division had arrived.
Seeing the troops from the Army and Horses Division coming, the fighting people dispersed, leaving a few people lying on the ground twitching in a pool of blood. At this moment, the ruthless man who stabbed him also took advantage of the chaos and fled. Chang Yu hurriedly chased after him.
Public or private, he will take down this person.
"Stop, you brave murderer. He killed someone and tried to run away. Catch him..." Chang Yu just started, but he didn't expect to be stared at by people from the Bingma Division. Seeing him holding a weapon, he ran away thinking he was the murderer.
The murderers surrounded him while shouting.
Chang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly for a moment, and shouted: "The murderer is over there" while running quickly to chase the thin murderer, but the people from the Bingma Division didn't believe him. They surrounded him and chased him. After all, he killed someone.
It is a big deal and no one dares to neglect it.
At this moment, the thin figure got into an alley and disappeared under the night. Chang Yu chased him into the alley and searched to no avail. Before he could curse, he was surrounded by people from the Bingma Division: "Bold."
The murderer was captured without putting down his weapon...
Chang Yu smiled bitterly, shrugged, and was about to explain when several more people rushed into the alley and cursed the people from the Bingma Division: "You blind thing, get out of here."
"Who are you waiting for?" When the people from the Military and Horse Division saw this, they knew it was a mistake, but they still asked bravely. When the visitor turned over his cards, the people from the Military and Horse Division took a deep breath and accused him repeatedly.
"At the emperor's feet, a crowd gathered to commit murder, and even killed people. This time, the soldiers and horses will have to eat and run away." Chang Yu snorted coldly: "Before dawn tomorrow, let Xu Kaijiang go to the Yamen to explain clearly."
Everyone in the Bingma Division didn't know his identity, but when they saw their immediate superior being called by his name, they all nodded in agreement. Chang Yu waved them away and called one of his men: "Tell Fang Ba to wait at the Yamen later."
Chaoyang Gate is Fang Ba's territory, and Fang Ba is also the first local gangster Chang Yu deals with, and of course he is one of the Thirteen Taibao.
