Chapter 385 Encounter on a narrow road

When the waiter Wang Hu and several waiters took the rice paper, their expressions were completely confused until they opened the rice paper.

took a look.

Only then did Wang Hu and others suddenly realize.

What Master Qianhu handed them was a crude map of Tongzhou Pier, which apparently was drawn by Master Qianhu himself.

Wang Hu was confused again.

I didn't expect that Mr. Qianhu could draw a map. Although this map is simple, every street, every alley, and every patrol route are marked clearly and clearly.

And Miss Yun'er probably also helped, because every intersection or three-way intersection on the map is marked with a delicate small hand.

This delicate handwriting must have been written by a woman.

What to stop, station, turn, patrol...

This was something Shen Lie and Yun'er secretly drew in the inner house these past few nights based on the map of Tongzhou.

"Watch it!"

As Shen Lie held the road map and waved his hand, he said in a deep voice: "From today on, our Hundred Household Office will be divided into three shifts to patrol the streets, one shift every four hours, each shift has thirty people, three shifts Day and night...you must follow the route drawn by me."

Wang Hu and others were dumbfounded.

a long time.

Wang Hucai said: "Sir, do we really want to go out to patrol the streets?"

Shen Lie glanced at him and said slowly: "Is it Dongchang's duty to patrol the streets and stand on the streets?"

Wang Hu looked a little strange and said hurriedly: "That's natural."

This matter.

But the investigation has to go back to before the Jiajing year, which was the period when Dongchang's power was at its peak. Not only was he responsible for patrolling along the streets, but he even dispatched spies to major yamen.

Except for the cabinet.

The Liubu Yamen, Shuntian Prefecture and even the Imperial College have Dongchang fanzi on duty, who are responsible for monitoring court officials to see if any of the imperial students in the Imperial College have made any anti-imperial remarks.

But this is all old history.

How dare Dongchang send people to a place like the Imperial College now...

There was a hint of embarrassment in the air.

In embarrassment.

Shen Lie looked at his confused subordinates and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Do you understand everything?"

Wang Hu and others trembled and hurriedly responded in unison: "Understood, I understand!"

In the roar.

Only then was Shen Lie satisfied. He held the patrol route map on the spot and began to divide shifts and patrol areas for his men...

After everything is arranged.

Shen Lie then shook his majestic bullfight uniform, waved his hand and said: "Let's go!"

So the supervisor, stall head, and sergeant hurriedly formed the team, and led the first patrol team of thirty people to pick up the sword and shield badges.

Depart from the entrance of Baihusuo and walk towards Tongzhou Pier.

Considering that this was the first time the Dongchang Tongzhou Hundred Household Office patrolled the streets in more than 20 years, Shen Lie was not at ease and naturally wanted to take charge personally.

Ever since.

The team of thirty people was divided into two rows and marched in front. Shen Lie and Wang Hu rode in behind to hold down the formation. At each intersection, two people were left to stand on the street.

It's late summer and early autumn now.

At Tongzhou Pier in the early morning, the air is crisp and clear in autumn.

With the sound of uniform footsteps on the street, the vendors who got up early to make a living and sell vegetables, fruits, delicacies and snacks all looked over.

While the vendors looked confused, Dongchang's team walked over carelessly.

Noise arose.

"Which yamen official is this?"

"This... I've never seen it before."

The vendors were whispering and pointing.

The young fans who were born in Tianjin Zuowei naturally couldn't help it, all of them blushed and lowered their heads with a guilty conscience.

The momentum of the patrol team was stagnant, and their steps were naturally a little chaotic.

at this time.

A low scolding voice from Master Qianhe came from behind: "Why are you panicking...just be alert... cheer up... and stride forward!"

A few low shouts.

He asked the team leader to stop and organize the team, and then continued to move forward. As the footsteps became more orderly, Shen Lie, who was riding on the horse, nodded with satisfaction.

After all, our Dongchang team is directly under the emperor!

No need to be timid!

Half an hour later.

Pier water gate.

We have reached the end of the patrol route here. According to Shen Lie's plan, there are exactly twelve people left in the patrol team, which is one class.

Just as they were about to walk into Shuiguan, the patrol was stopped by the canal transport soldiers on duty.

"Hey...what are you doing!"

A commander-in-chief, armed with a waist knife, came forward with about ten people, stopped the Dongchang team outside Shuiguan, and then pointed the needle at Maimang.

There were shouts and shouts everywhere.

"Stop anyone who comes!"

"The water is a critical place, no intrusion is allowed!"

But before the flag officer of the canal transport troops came back to his senses, Wang Hu had already cheered up and strode over, flashing the badge of the leader of the East Factory.

Eyes widened.

Wang Hu shouted angrily: "Dongchang Street Patrol... are you blind?"

The commander of the Cao soldiers was stunned, and instinctively wanted to stop him, but he saw an adult appearing from nowhere and riding a horse slowly approaching.

Look at the bullfighting uniform on this adult.

The commander-in-chief of the Cao soldiers were all dumbfounded. He and his subordinates looked at me and I looked at you, and for a moment they didn't know whether to bow down and greet them.

Shen Lie's nostrils turned upward and he said coldly: "Get up!"

The elite soldiers under his command swarmed forward and forced their way in.

Shen Lie also got off his horse and led the team to Shuiguan Station. While walking slowly, he looked at the sparkling canal in front of him with majestic eyes.

Many shipping soldiers were inspecting something on a ship. There were several tables on the river bank, some tax collectors, and the accounting office was collecting customs duties.

Farther away.

There are also several hundreds of officials, deputy qianhu and other officials, as well as tax collectors, river patrol censors and the like, who are rushing here in a hurry.

When several military officers arrived in front of Shen Lie, they looked at him carefully and became a little nervous for a moment.

a long time.

A soldier from Cao soldiers came over and asked tentatively: "Dare I ask this sir..."

"snort!"

Shen Lie looked displeased, snorted coldly, patted the non-existent dust on the bullfighting suit, and rolled his eyes.

That look seemed to be saying.

Are you blind?

Looking at the bright bullfighting uniforms, and then at the brown clothes and pointed hats on the soldiers, the faces of the hundreds of soldiers changed slightly.

Several military officers knew that they could not afford to offend, so they hurriedly nodded and bowed and retreated. They watched from a distance for a while, and soon another adult came over.

This gentleman was much calmer than the people in the Caoyun Yamen. He was wearing a green civil official robe and walked over with four square steps.

The green-robed master walked up to Shen Lie and said arrogantly: "Who are you? How dare you disturb the important place of water transport... Are you tired of living?"

Shen Lie looked at the adult with his nostrils pointing upward, and also raised his chin.

Too lazy to care.

On the contrary, Wang Hu felt a little weak. He instinctively shrank his neck and did not dare to say a word. He looked eagerly at the confrontation between the master of his Qianhu family and the censor who patrolled the river.

It’s done!

Seeing that Shen Lie didn't respond, the green-robed censor raised his voice and said angrily, "I'm asking you, who are you..."

The words are not finished yet.

Shen Lie had already yelled back: "What rank are you?"

This voice startled the green-robed censor.
