When Pei Xuan rushed to the Liangshan Ancestral Hall Cemetery to pay homage to Deng Fei, he was able to rush to Hangzhou to meet Meng Kangfu. The friendship of drinking Machuan and putting incense and sworn homage, and the friendship of gathering together in Liangshanbo, Pei Xuan and Meng Kangfu met.
There is no such thing as the selfless and solemn look of the inspectors in the past. They talk to each other about old stories in the world and laugh heartily from time to time.
However, when talking about Deng Fei who died in the battle, Pei Xuan and Meng Kang could not help but feel melancholy. After drinking for three rounds, Pei Xuan immediately stood up as he had done when he drank with his two brothers in Yinma Chuan Village.
Sword dance to help drink. But I heard the whistling sound of swords, the sound of wind and thunder, and the flash of swords filling the room. After all, Pei Xuan was not only proficient in swords and pens, but also good at using two swords, and I could see him moving and flying with his swords.
The poem is also filled with desolate and tragic feelings, and seems to be expressing a sense of sorrow for Deng Fei, his close friend and brother who had saved him in the past but was inevitably killed in the battlefield...
After saying goodbye to Meng Kang, Pei Xuan was able to chat with some of his old friends from Juyi who were working in the local area along the way. Until he rushed north to Yanjing to serve as the Prime Minister of the Prefecture, he strictly observed the rules and regulations, clearly observed the details, and still had his grandson.
Lin Ren and his colleagues worked hard to help, and together with Pei Xuan, they managed Yanjing in a harmonious and harmonious manner. They achieved great results and were highly supported by the local people.
As the center of power of the Qi Dynasty slowly transferred to Yanjing, it was inevitable that there would be some personal relationships between many high-ranking officials. As always, Pei Xuan still could not tolerate any selfish behavior, even if he had gathered in Shuibo Liangshan in the past
The righteous brothers still enforce the law strictly and do not care about personal relationships at all. Impeachment does not avoid power and favor, and judgment does not distinguish between relatives and friends. This also makes the nobles and powerful officials who harbor serious thoughts of personal gain and corruption have to restrain themselves greatly.
In his subsequent official career, Pei Xuan has been transferred to important positions in the inspection agencies such as Yanjing Mansion, Yushitai, Tidian Prison Department, etc. During his tenure, he not only solved several unresolved cases, but also impeached more than a dozen people.
He was a subordinate of the Song Dynasty, but he used his power to make huge profits and exploited money and goods under clever pretexts. He was an official in the transportation department and the prison department. This also eliminated a large number of corrupt officials, and also made a great contribution to the political arena and local officials in the early Qi Dynasty.
Maybe being honest and honest plays a decisive role.
Until Pei Xuan became an official at the age of seventy, retired and lived in seclusion, he died leisurely and peacefully for twelve years without any illness. He was posthumously awarded the title of Duke of the country, with the posthumous title of "Jie Su", and left a famous name behind him that was passed down to future generations. Even if his fame is not as good as
Bao Qingtian, a famous official in the Song Dynasty and a representative figure of upright officials in Chinese history, is also known as Pei Qingtian, the iron-faced censor, and is praised by future generations...
As for Sun Ding, who was promoted due to his merits, he also succeeded Pei Xuanguan and lived in Yanjing Prefecture. Lin Ren continued to hold important positions in the prison department in the capital until he retired and became an official, and he also had a good death.

During his tenure, Pei Xuan prosecuted corrupt officials, mediocre officials, and abusive officials, at least on the surface, as official business. However, in fact, he had always accepted another secret service agency of the Qi Dynasty that also patrolled and arrested illegal officials, and his power was equivalent to directly obeying the orders of Emperor Xiao Tang.
The evidence of crimes collected. And when this agency goes out to investigate officials who are guilty of selfish pursuits, harming the people, or even rebellion, there are often many methods of collecting criminal evidence, arresting and interrogating them, but they are often not visible to the public.
In Daming Mansion, in the Fusi Prison in Yiluan Town, an extremely angry roar suddenly sounded: "What are you doing! I am a general in charge of Yang Yaoyang, the naval commander in central Jiangxi. I was ordered to go to Daming Mansion on an errand. So what? Dare you take me!?"
As the prisoner protested angrily, he smelled the smell of rot and blood in the prison, and followed the few rays of sunlight cast by the iron bars to see the cell he was in, as well as the rust in the torture chamber outside. The mottled rust marks are formed by the dried blood shed by many prisoners who were previously tortured. The prisoner was also frightened and still shouted angrily, maybe it was because of his own body. In the mentality of shouting obscenities in the graveyard...
A muffled "creak" sound suddenly made the prisoner suddenly feel frightened. He hurriedly looked towards an iron fence outside the cell and saw a tall, round-waisted man with his upper body exposed, and his chest was exposed. The hairy man and seven or eight jailers walked in. The big man came over with cold eyes and said immediately: "Are you He Sheng who works under Yang Yao's account? Do you...recognize me?"
The prisoner named He Sheng swallowed his saliva and replied in a slightly slower tone: "I am He Sheng Bujia. Sir, since you know that I am a subordinate of Yang Duguan, why do you want to take me?" There must be no misunderstanding..."
"There is no need to call me husband-in-law. I have been working in the official prison for a long time, and I am a rough man who is used to killing people and beheading people. You must have heard of the name He, the Fusi of Yiluan Town. I have an iron arm, Cai Fu. He is the warden in charge of the imperial prison in the Zhenfu Division. You must know that it is not a good thing to know me here."
He Sheng's face turned pale when he said that, and he hesitated and said: "Mo...Although I have heard about Yiluan Zhenfusi, but...but I am not responsible... Even though General Manager Shi Xiushi, who is in charge of the Zhenfu Division, has the merit of serving the dragon, he is a close hero who has been following His Majesty for a long time...how...how can he arrest a good person without any reason?"
Cai Fu seemed to be used to hearing such rhetoric over the years. With a look of indifference on his face, he casually grabbed the blood-stained chair next to him and sat down. However, he changed the topic and asked again: "The Song Dynasty. , have you ever served in the army, or been in prison in a prison city? Have you ever hung out in the green forest before?"
He Sheng was startled when he heard this, and then asked doubtfully: "The last general... was a general who was demoted from the Song Dynasty... and was later transferred to the post under Du Yang's accountant. He was born in the army and was never drafted into the army. Although he knew There are many heroes in our dynasty who became famous in the green forest... They are not from the Jianghu... But I don't know why Manager Cai is asking so much?"
Cai Fu beat his legs lazily, and then said: "In the past, the Yamen opened to the south. If you have a reason and no money, don't come in. In the prison of the prison, there are section levels, management of the camp, and dispatches to defraud people of money and materials. If there is a human heart, If you don't have money, you can eat iron into the flesh, eat sawdust, stone cloth bags, feed fish hooks, drive steel nails, and even boil water to scrape the flesh with an iron brush, and use fish glue to cover people's skin with hemp. There are many ways to discipline you whether you want to live or not, whether you want to die or not. Since I was born in the two prisons, I still clearly remember the trades I should know... Not to mention that there are some vicious thieves and evil bandits on the green forest road who deal with people's lives. You also Something must be heard.
Nowadays, our Qi Dynasty has a clear governance and strictly checks all prisons and lawsuits to see if there is blackmail and torture of prisoners. Mr. Pei Xuan is in charge of the official prisons under the Yushitai, but he still pays attention to the punishment of those civil servants and not to the officials.
Of course, to punish a crime, we need to get evidence of the crime in black and white... But what our Yiluan Town Fusi wants to get are the lawless officials who have committed excessive crimes. Naturally, we don't have to follow the rules on the surface. And the harmful torture that has been abolished by our government
, I am the only one in Yiluan Town Fusi, and it can still be used..."
After Cai Fu said calmly, he immediately leaned forward, looked at him meaningfully, and said: "The good things Yang Yao has done, as well as the collusion with your subordinates, I, Yiluan Town Fusi, have already thoroughly investigated.
You have to be clear. The person Manager Shi wants to deal with is Yang Yao, and he has no time to think about a small fish like you. If you are willing to recruit him from the ground, maybe... you can still survive. But if you insist on refusing,
Confession... This is not the Privy Council, the Yushitai, or the Prison Department. We don't have to follow the laws of judicial torture. In the Yiluan Town Fusi, we just follow the rules set by General Manager Shi, and we only teach the children.
Greeting you... It seems that in the past, methods of killing people were concocted in prisons and green forest roads... Have you tried all of them?"
