On one of the cars, the curtains were opened, and one could see that the passenger in the city was an old man with a white beard. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he had an extraordinary demeanor. It was obvious at a glance that he was at least a learned man.
But at this time, he had a look of curiosity in his eyes and kept looking out the car window with a very surprised look on his face.
Suddenly, a voice sounded from the side of the car: "Husband, you must have really changed!"
Hearing the sound, the man looked back into the car, but shook his head and said: "Everything you saw and heard on the road is just rumors. What you see now, do you know it is not an appearance? Let's take a look again, if not, this Zuodu Yushi
I have no love for my job!"
The old man in this car is Huang Daozhou, the newly appointed Censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He is fifty-seven years old at the time, and is actually a bit younger than his appearance. There is nothing I can do, my life is too unsatisfactory, and I have too many worries.
, looking old.
The other one is of course his wife, who is also a celebrity, named Cai Yuqing, who is seventeen years younger than Huang Daozhou.
Previously, Huang Daozhou was almost beaten to death by the imperial staff. Therefore, this time Huang Daozhou came to Beijing with an order, she was very worried, so she followed him to serve him.
Originally, Huang Daozhou was already disappointed with the court. Emperor Chongzhen wanted to re-appoint him as an official, but he refused to accept the order.
But this time, because he heard that Jie Xuelong, who was implicated by him, was appointed by the imperial court at the same time, he accepted the order. Not for himself, at least for Jie Xuelong!
But he was still disappointed with the situation in the DPRK. But later, he found that the situation in the DPRK seemed to have changed a lot.
Huang Daozhou is no better than Yan Yingyuan, and Di Bao can be obtained. Colleagues, students, etc. along the way can also obtain some information.
For example, Zhou Yanru, the chief minister who was at the height of his power, suddenly fell!
Chen Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Chen Xinjia, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and even Duke Cheng Guo had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated.
All this really shocked him.
If it were just this, he thought it might just be a recurrence of party strife.
However, according to his understanding, the officials who came to power should be the most vulnerable in the party struggle.
Whether it was He Fengsheng, Sun Chuanting, Zuo Maodi, etc., they had all been targeted before!
Then Sun Chuanting, didn’t he just go to jail for several years?
He really can't understand the situation between North Korea and China!
In addition, Di Bao clearly ordered all the guards and the imperial troops to clear the villages for payment, and it was strictly forbidden to disturb the people, kill good people and take merit for their merits!
What else can be done to vaccinate against smallpox? Even the mildly discolored pimple disease is said to be caused by fleas on rats. Killing rats will eliminate the root cause of pimple disease.
All these things made Huang Daozhou very surprised, and the same was true. Along the way, he always lifted the curtain to see the situation.
According to his experience, there should have been no solution in the court, but why did it feel like the atmosphere was completely new?
When did the current emperor become so wise and powerful?
At this time, he was in a state of doubt.
At this time, Cai Yuqing, with her unique sensitivity as a woman, felt the difference, more definitely than Huang Daozhou. Therefore, after hearing Huang Daozhou's words, she smiled and said: "I know your husband's ambition well. If
If there is something you can do, you won’t hang your hat and leave! Just wait and see!”
After Huang Daozhou heard this, he also smiled and said: "The one who knows me is Madam!"
While they were talking, suddenly they felt the car stop, and there was a quarrel coming from the front.
Huang Daozhou was a little surprised, so he turned around and found a group of people watching, unable to see clearly what was going on inside.
It seemed that the incident was a bit big and the road was blocked.
Seeing this situation, Huang Daozhou couldn't help but frown, and ordered the steward beside the car: "Go and see, what's going on?"
Turning back, Huang Daozhou sighed and said: "It seems that the situation in the capital is still not much different!"
Public security is not good under the Emperor's feet, let alone the entire world!
Cai Yuqing also shook his head after hearing this.
In the earliest days, she had accompanied Huang Daozhou to the capital, and she knew that the officials in the capital, from top to bottom, only acted based on money and situation, and there was no justice at all. In this way, the public security would naturally not be improved.
After a while, the steward came back and reported: "Sir, the soldiers from the Military and Horse Department in Zhongcheng arrested the grain merchants. They said that the grain merchants were short of jin and liang. But the grain merchants said that the people from the Military and Horse Department were extorting money and armed with weapons.
As for the resistance, both sides were in a stalemate and both went back to bring in reinforcements!"
"Oh?" Huang Daoyi was a little surprised when he heard this on Monday, and immediately asked, "What's the truth?"
"Listening to the people who were watching, it seems that this grain merchant is really short of money!" The steward immediately replied, "But I heard that behind this grain merchant is the censor patrolling the city, so he is not afraid of the military commander!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Daozhou's face darkened. According to what he said, this was from the Metropolitan Procuratorate's side, right?
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Cai Yuqing say curiously: "Now this person from the Military and Horse Division is so bold? In the past, it seemed that he never cared about such things, right? Is it possible?
Do you know the background of this grain merchant?"
"Reply to Madam!" The steward heard this and quickly replied, "The people in the Bingma Division are all local snakes. They must not offend the people in their jurisdiction. Those people must know very well. I seemed to have heard just now that the grain
Shang had already threatened, but the Military and Horse Division did not retreat, they just went to find their new commander!"
Huang Daoyi heard this on Monday and couldn't help but asked with interest: "Is this really true?"
Such a thing is really rare!
After saying this, he came back to his senses and knew that the manager would definitely not lie to him, so his interest greatly increased.
Turning back, Huang Daozhou said to the car: "Madam, wait a moment, my husband will go check on the situation!"
"Husband, be careful!" After hearing this, Cai Yuqing did not stop him, but reminded him with concern, and then ordered the servants, "Protect me!"
Huang Daoyi heard this on Monday, waved his hands and said: "You guys should keep an eye on the car and don't let anyone disturb Madam."
After saying that, he got out of the car and, accompanied by the steward, went to watch.
It is a natural instinct to watch the excitement.
Zodiac Zhou went over and found that it was so crowded that he couldn't get in at all.
The steward saw it, but there was nothing he could do.
At this moment, he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. He turned around and saw an officer on horseback leading a group of soldiers coming over.
Looking at the costume, Huang Daozhou recognized it as the costume of the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.
Is this the rightful owner?
Thinking this, he looked at it curiously.
Huang Daozhou discovered that this conductor had never been seen before, but he had a dignified appearance and resembled the legendary Guan Yunchang.
At this meeting, he felt good about it. He wanted to see how the commander of the Military and Horse Division handled this matter?
So, taking advantage of the opportunity when the crowd of onlookers dispersed, he deftly followed in and finally saw what was going on in the inner circle.
"grown ups!"
Those soldiers and horses who arrived first saw the Shangguan arriving and saluted one after another.
But when the grain merchant saw it, he said with a gloomy face: "Who gave you the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, and didn't ask, who is our boss?"
Yan Yingyuan was riding on his horse and did not get down. After scanning the situation from a high position, he shouted in a cold voice: "Is the evidence conclusive?"
Upon hearing this, a soldier holding a bucket quickly replied: "Sir, this is it!"
When Yan Yingyuan heard this, he shouted coldly: "Since the evidence of the crime is solid, we will arrest you. If you dare to resist, no matter whether you are killed or injured!"
"How brave!" The grain merchant saw that the commander was a stupid young man, so he immediately pointed out, "My boss is the censor of the city, you dare to take action?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Yingyuan drove his horse over, waved his hand and whipped him, and at the same time shouted: "You have violated the law and dare to use your power to suppress others in order to avoid responsibility. The crime will be increased!"
There was a "pop" followed by another sound, which immediately knocked the grain merchant into a coma.
Yan Yingyuan ignored him and immediately shouted loudly: "Come on, seal the shop and take the people back to the Yamen. There is an official who will go to the censor of the city to tell you. If you know about it and condone it, you will be impeached by the superiors!"
"Follow your orders!" When the soldiers of the Zhongcheng Soldiers and Horses Department saw that Yan Yingyuan was really standing in front, they all became excited and responded loudly.
When the crowd of onlookers saw it, they were all silent.
I have never seen this kind of scene before. This new conductor is so tough. I am afraid he will be retaliated against if he turns around, right?
"Okay!" Huang Daozhou didn't care about this, and immediately shouted, "Well done! Officials should do this, so that the people can be healthy and the world can be peaceful!"
Hearing his cheers, the people watching started to cheer loudly.
When Yan Yingyuan heard the words, he turned around and looked at Huang Daozhou and found that he didn't recognize him.
In fact, he didn't know many officials at all.
However, Yan Yingyuan could also see that this old man had an extraordinary bearing and extraordinary conversation, so he might be a person of some status.
However, he did not take the opportunity to make friends.
When working in the capital, you should do your own thing well and avoid forming cliques for personal gain. He still knows this.
At this time, he looked around, then clasped his fists and saluted all around, and then said loudly: "In the area under the control of the Zhongcheng Soldiers and Horses Command, if someone commits an offense or violates the law, no matter who it is, the Soldiers and Horses Division will never tolerate it."
Please watch carefully. If there is any malpractice for personal gain, you can go directly to the Yamen to contact me, Commander Yan Yingyuan of the Zhongcheng Military and Horse Command Department!"
"good!"
"good!"
"..."
After hearing this, the onlookers all cheered. After all, most of them are ordinary people. If Bingma Division really does something, they will benefit!
Later, watching the people from the Military and Horse Division escorting a group of prisoners away, Huang Daozhou stroked his long beard and couldn't help but smile and praise: "Yan Yingyuan? Not bad, not bad, tough enough!"
When he got back to the car, when he explained the situation, Cai Yuqing said with a smile: "It must be that there is a new atmosphere in the court, so there are such responsible people. I feel that my husband will do a lot this time."
!”
Huang Daozhou couldn't help laughing but said nothing after hearing this.
