As Qin Wei's orders were conveyed, Zhenwusi, a newly established yamen, began to operate at full speed.
The operation to eradicate crime is not a simple task. It is much more complicated than the previous operation to annihilate the Bloody Clothes Building in Kyoto, involving countless people.
Moreover, it will also involve the Shuntian Mansion Office and the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, so the preparation time will be a little longer.
Naturally, Qin Wei cannot be lazy. In order to pave the way for the action of cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil, Qin Wei still has a lot to do.
April 26, morning.
Qin Wei came to Shuntian Mansion Office.
"Your Majesty, Yin Lutong of Shuntian Prefecture, pays homage to His Royal Highness."
Yin Lutong of Shuntian Prefecture is in his early fifties, with a thin build and gray hair, like a wizened little old man.
In Kyoto, although the class of Shuntian Prefecture is not high, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture can directly go to the palace to meet the emperor.
Moreover, the Shuntian Prefecture is also qualified to accept complaints from all over the country, which is equivalent to a small criminal department. In the handling of administrative affairs, the Shuntian Prefecture has the power to make immediate decisions, and can make decisions on its own as long as it is not a major matter.
Lu Tong has been the governor of Shuntian for more than ten years. A person who can hold this position firmly and hold it for ten years is definitely not a simple person.
"Master Lu, long time no see!" Qin Wei looked at Lu Tong and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, please take a seat!" Lu Tong said calmly, a bit repulsive.
In the hall, Qin Wei sat on a chair, and a servant made tea.
Lu Tong always faced Qin Wei with a calm expression. Although he did not say anything inappropriate, his intention to distance himself was obvious.
Qin Wei was not angry about this.
Perhaps outside, his reputation as the Prince of Xin'an County and the Commander of the Zhenwu Division was very powerful, but in the court and in this Shuntian Mansion Yamen, his titles seemed a bit useless.
The royal status can give him dignity, and the official position of Zhenwu Division can give him power, but he is only sixteen years old, just a young boy.
In the eyes of the nobles in the court, he, a young boy, was not qualified to be on an equal footing with them.
Lu Tong is arrogant, but he has the qualifications to be arrogant.
Not to mention that Qin Wei was just a prince, even if he was a prince, he still had to treat Lu Tong with courtesy.
"I have something to ask Master Lu for help!"
After a cup of tea, Qin Wei went straight to the point and said.
"Your Majesty, please tell me, as long as it is what I should do, I will definitely not refuse you!" Lu Tong said calmly.
Look at what he said, as long as it is what he should do, he will not refuse. What if it is not what he should do?
Qin Wei smiled and said: "I want all the case files of Shuntian Mansion."
Although the Zhenwu Division has privileges, it does not mean that it can act unscrupulously. The campaign against gangs and evil has spread far and wide, so many things must be prepared in advance.
Those people committed crimes, what crimes they committed, what evidence there is, and whether it should be handled by the Zhenwu Division. All these require an accurate and detailed file.
If Qin Wei wants to launch an operation to eradicate gangsters and eliminate evil, he must first obtain the files from the Shuntian Government Office.
Lu Tong glanced at Qin Wei in surprise and said, "There are many files in Shuntian Mansion. Your Highness wants them all?"
You must know that Shuntian Prefecture not only manages the city of Kyoto, but also manages the twenty-four counties around Kyoto, and will also accept all cases from the thirteen states of Dali. The number of files can be imagined.
"For the time being, we only need files within five years," Qin Wei said.
Lu Tong looked at Qin Wei thoughtfully, "What does Your Highness want to do?"
"The Zhenwu Division has the responsibility to crack down on crimes committed by warriors." Qin Wei said softly.
"But Kyoto is an important place for the imperial dynasty, and there must be no chaos!" Lu Tong said in a low voice.
He is the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and it is his responsibility to maintain the stability within Shuntian Prefecture.
In fact, he has done very well in these years. Although the power of folk martial arts continues to expand, and warriors use weapons to commit crimes from time to time, at least on the surface, Kyoto is still peaceful.
"Master Lu should know the consequences of drinking poison to quench thirst. I know that there are some things that Shuntian Mansion cannot handle, but Zhenwu Division can." Qin Wei said.
Lu Tong's expression moved slightly and he fell into deep thought.
Qin Wei took a sip of tea and said: "The Zhenwu Division has the right to borrow files from Shuntian Prefecture and the Ministry of Punishment. This is the holy will."
"I understand, but I still hope that His Highness will care about the stability of Kyoto City. Otherwise, His Majesty may be dissatisfied." Lu Tong said helplessly.
Although he looked down upon Qin Wei, a young boy, he naturally couldn't refuse Qin Wei's holy will.
In his position, he seeks his own government.
Lu Tong doesn't care what Qin Wei and Zhenwusi do, all he wants is to maintain the current stability in Kyoto.
Unfortunately, he obviously underestimated Qin Wei.
Next, Qin Wei will dig a bottomless pit for him.
…
afternoon.
In the Zhenwu Division, Qin Wei finally received the memorial from the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
Emperor Li agreed to his request, pardoned three martial arts masters from the Criminal Department, and also recognized the official positions he requested for Li Ru, Yuwen Chengdu and Tie Shou.
From now on, the official positions held by Li Ru and the others are considered official positions, and the prefixes can be removed.
However, along with Eunuch Lu came a middle-aged man wearing armor.
Luo Jin, thirty-eight years old, an eighth-grade warrior, former deputy commander of the Tianwu Guard, and now commander of the Zhenwu Division.
That's right, Emperor Li is deploying manpower to the Zhenwu Division.
The Tianwu Guards were the Imperial Guards of the Imperial City and were responsible for guarding the palace. Since Luo Jin could serve as the deputy commander of the Tianwu Guards, he was naturally a person trusted by Emperor Li.
Putting him in the Zhenwu Division was obviously to assist Qin Wei, but secretly he had the intention of supervising the Zhenwu Division.
Qin Wei did not refute this, and did not even have any dissatisfaction.
This is reasonable and should be done.
Qin Wei had long expected that Emperor Li would send people to the Zhenwu Division.
So Qin Wei had already prepared for Luo Jin's arrival.
In the main hall of Zhenwu Division.
Qin Wei warmly entertained Eunuch Lu and Luo Jin.
"I am very happy to have General Luo come to help me."
"General Luo, the Zhenwu Division has just been established, and there are many chores. I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you with a lot of things in the future."
Qin Wei said with a smile.
Eunuch Lu had a kind smile on his face, and his slightly sunken eyes were full of deep and unpredictable light.
"It is an honor for me to serve His Highness the Prince!" Luo Jin stood up and said solemnly.
Qin Wei smiled and nodded slightly.
On the surface, this Luo Jin should be an unsmiling person, but this is understandable. Tianwuwei is responsible for guarding the palace and cannot tolerate any mistakes.
"General Luo, please sit down. I don't have too much red tape here," Qin Wei said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Prince!"
"Eunuch Lu, I wonder if your Majesty has any other instructions?" Qin Wei asked Eunuch Lu again.
Eunuch Lu still had a kind face, and he looked at Li Ru and others in the hall.
Qin Wei immediately understood and waved his hand towards Li Ru and others.
"I'll take my leave!"
After Li Ru and others exited the main hall, Eunuch Lu said: "Your Highness, the people of this holy land can use it, but they must be on guard."
Qin Wei was slightly stunned!
He didn't react for a moment.
"Holy place!"
"That's right, people in the Holy Land don't respect kings, so we must be on guard." Eunuch Lu said again.
Qin Wei suddenly realized.
Eunuch Lu obviously thought that Yuwen Chengdu and Tie Shou came from the Holy Land.
The so-called holy land refers to the holy land of martial arts, which is actually a part of the civil society. However, the existences that can be called holy places are all powerful existences.
Only warriors with innate masters are called martial arts holy places. There are a total of six martial arts holy places in Dali.
Two are hanging alone overseas, two are hidden in the mountains, and two are in border cities.
The Holy Land of Martial Arts occupies a transcendent status among the people, and they have long been separated from the sphere of influence of ordinary warriors.
For the court, holy places are forces that can cooperate but must be guarded against.
For example, there are two holy places in the border city, Beiyuan City and Nanmu City.
These two holy places have always been partners of Dali, and Beiyuan City and Nanmu City have always helped Dali guard the north-south border.
Another example is the two isolated holy lands of Luoxia Island and Wanhua Island. Although they rely on the Dali Dynasty, they have actually completely separated from Dali.
The power of Dali Chaotang simply cannot interfere with these two holy land forces.
As for the two holy places hidden in the mountains, they are completely in seclusion and rarely enter the secular world, which makes them somewhat insignificant.
However, being insignificant does not mean that they can be ignored. Even if they are in seclusion, their strength is still very powerful.
Eunuch Lu mistakenly believed that Yuwen Chengdu and Tie Shou came from the Holy Land, which was actually a good thing for Qin Wei and saved him from having to explain the origins of Yuwen Chengdu and Tie Shou.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Lu, since I dare to use them, I can restrain them." Qin Wei said with a serious face.
Eunuch Lu took a deep look at Qin Wei and said, "As long as His Highness is prepared."
"I understand, and I would like to ask Eunuch Lu to tell your Majesty that they will not betray Zhenwu Division," Qin Wei said.
