They all watched silently from the sidelines, knowing the truth of shooting the first bird.

There must be a reason why the jailer is a big yamen, and usually dares to catch small thieves, but now he suddenly does so.

Emperor Apocalypse stopped in Fengyang, this is the biggest one in the world, let's calm things down and endure the calm for a while!

After singing a song, the singing and dancing all stop.

The thin man clapped his hands and applauded again and again, and there was only his applause in the audience.

The fat man stepped forward and asked:

"How about it, shall we go?"

The thin man glanced at him, sat up from the chair, looked back at Mr. Liu who had quietly retreated behind the crowd, and clapped his hands:

"Okay, let's go."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden commotion outside Yueming Building.

A team of officials surrounded the entire venue, drew their knives, and shouted at the stage:

"Take the bandit!"

"The jailer suspects that some bandits have gone to Yueming Tower, and no one is allowed to leave!"

While shouting, they brandished waist knives, sticks, and fishing ropes, and arrested those well-dressed dignitaries when they saw them. The first one found Mr. Liu, who looked horrified.

"What bandits, I don't know bandits!"

This time there is nothing to say, the officials broke into the Yueming Building, shouted to arrest the bandits, and then arrested anyone they saw. Mr. Liu and the servants beside him were directly taken out by force.

The thin man saw Mr. Liu struggling while being tied up by Wu Hua Da, and said coldly:

"The jailer has found out that the Liu family is colluding with bandits and hijacking the relief funds. Let's check everyone in this building one by one!"

"Notify Bing Ma Si of the results of the inspection of Yueming Building, and surround Liu's house first!"

As soon as the words fell, an officer ran out of Yueming Tower, and galloped to Fengyang Bingmasi. The crowd outside was in chaos for some reason.

The old bustard saw his property destroyed, and cried and grabbed his trouser legs: "Master Guan, we didn't collude with the bandits, you can't...you can't open your eyes and talk nonsense!"

The thin man almost kicked her away, and ordered:

"The Prison Secretary inspected the robbers and found out that Yueming Tower was in collusion with him to hide the robbers. They will be sealed up and handed over to the Military Commander from now on!"

"The imperial court will soon build the Zhongdu Jiaofangsi in Fengyang, and the Yueming Tower will be converted into the Jiaofangsi's official site. All women will be used as prostitutes in the Jiaofangsi to atone for their sins!"

"As for you—"

Saying that, the skinny official lowered his head to look at the lost bustard, and sneered:

"Sent to prison for harboring thieves and bandits, take him away!"

Among the crowd, the two rough men who were fortunate enough to enter the Yueming Tower because of someone's blessing, thought that a disaster was imminent, and were planning how to leave, but they didn't think about it, and the officials didn't even touch them.

Those who are arrested by officials are all those who are rich and powerful.

The two of you looked at me, I looked at you, and then turned around, and found that the young man who allowed them to enter Yueming Tower was crossing his legs, watching all this, and there were three strong men behind him.

Strange and strange, the prison officer didn't even dare to go there.

2 Seventy chapters, the governor also has a share

"It's all your fault, you have to be arty."

"Stop whining, let's go!"

The scholars were frightened to death, and while shirking each other's responsibilities, they all quickly retreated to the backstage, took off their green shirts, and put on disguises, trying to blend in with the crowd and leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

I don't want to, the police officers of the jailer have already rushed to the backstage.

Seeing this group of panic-stricken scholars, the messenger did not hesitate, sneered, and locked one of them with a chain as a chest.

The rest of the scholars were startled, subconsciously stopped their movements, their angry brows and eyes were crooked, and stepped forward to pull the locked man back, shouting:

"What are you doing? Why are you indiscriminately arresting good people!"

"Hmph, what a good citizen!" The messenger sneered, and pulled the locked scholar out regardless of what happened.

Scholars, look at me, I look at you, a group of people gathered around and condemned:

"You let them go!"

"We came from the capital together. We are both honest and responsible scholars. You don't even know the bandits you want to catch!"

"Stop bluffing people with your status as a scholar!" The messenger knew from the top that there was going to be a big trouble this time, so he had no fear and said viciously:

"This is colluding with thieves and bandits. It is heinous. If I say a few more words, I will arrest you together!"

A scholar raised his eyebrows, blushed and had a thick neck. When he heard this, he argued without thinking:

"Arrest us too? I'm afraid you, a little prison yamen, won't dare!"

"When the trouble becomes serious, we will be released. Even in prison, we must be provided with good food and drink!"

The messenger originally walked a few steps, but when he heard the words, he brought people back to the backstage, stared at the dozen or so scholars, thought for a moment, then waved his hands and shouted:

"This group of people communicated with the thieves, and they were tied up and sent to prison!"

"Prisoner arresting people, you dare to talk like that, do you not pay attention to the court's judicial office? It's against you!"

The scholars exclaimed a few times, some even fainted from fright, and some wanted to argue, but were dragged back by an older scholar.

"Master, you arrest these people, they are all celebrities who will go to the capital to take the exam next year. They have been preparing for the exam for many years, and even in Beijing, they know a lot of adults and masters."

As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of silver ingot, smiled and said:

"The imperial court is also employing people now, so it's time to make big things small and small things small, forget it..."

The messenger took the silver ingot in his hand, weighed it a few times, and scolded with a contemptuous smile:

"Ha! Still a rich guy!"

"I said, everyone in the world says you are poor scholars. How come you know so many people and spend so much money? Where did all the money come from?"

Hearing this, the elder scholar's face turned slightly red, but he still swallowed the bad breath.

It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When we return to the capital, we will find a teacher to say a few words, you little prison guard, I have a pot for you to drink!

The messenger was a vulgar guy, so he naturally knew that these scholars would settle accounts after the autumn. He looked at the silver ingot in his hand, threw it back to the ground, and shouted:

"Look! These schoolboys bribed me with money, but I took it away!"

After speaking loudly, he sent someone to the scholar's side, circled around him, and said with a sneer:

"I'll tell you the truth, this time the jailer handled the case because there was a big case of embezzlement of disaster relief money!"

"After the inspection by the jailer, he will be handed over to the Bingma Division. After the Bingma Division arrests someone, it will be the factory guard."

"Go and ask those high-ranking officials and gentlemen in Beijing, do they dare to take care of this matter?"

Hearing these words, the scholars only felt their foreheads buzzing. Why did this matter become such a big deal all of a sudden? It seems that the jailer is only playing the role of searching for evidence.

The one who really wants to arrest people is Bing Ma Si!

Behind the whole operation is the operation of the factory guard system. When the word "factory guard" is mentioned, no one dares to jump around anymore, and everyone is stupefied.

As long as there is a factory guard guarding a certain matter, no one dares to beep and beep.

Even first-rank officials of the imperial court and cabinet ministers dare to arrest them. If there is no evidence, they can create a lot of evidence for you.

All in all, no matter how powerful the forces are behind the intervention of factory guards, and those who do not follow the rules, it is all done in one step.

The words of the scholars this time were obviously much more polite, almost begging.

"It's really unfair!"

"We are all scholars who came with Yujia all the way. We study hard and study hard. Tianqi will take part in the examination in three years. We haven't exchanged information with those thieves!"

"Don't worry about that! Let's talk about it when we get to the jailer!"

The messengers stopped talking nonsense to them, and escorted those who made the most noise out of Yueming Building, and locked them into the prison office in Fengyang.

There was a lot of shouting downstairs, and the local masters above naturally didn't dare to go down. At this moment, they all hid in the private room and complained to each other.

"The jailer made such a big commotion and arrested so many people. Someone must have known about it among the people who came with the emperor!" Governor Zhou Yi looked terrified.

What he was most worried about still happened, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"It's all your fault, you have to talk about it in a conspicuous place like Yueming Building!"

Chen Kangwei, the governor of Suzhou, was spread out on a chair, full of complaints, and he didn't care about his superiority or inferiority. Anyway, if he was found out, everyone would have to finish the game.

Fengyang prefect Yan Rongxuan looked at him coldly:

"When you said you were coming to Yueming Tower, didn't you say no? Something will happen, why are you complaining?"

Several people quarreled for a while, and finally found helplessly that this matter happened too fast, and the result of today's discussion has not had time to give an order.

It is too passive, the people below have not yet unified the caliber!

……

"Yueming Tower communicates with bandits, soldiers and horses seized it! All women are used as prostitutes in Zhongdu Jiaofang, and all assets are confiscated!"

Zhu Youxiao looked at a group of Fengyang soldiers and Ma Si soldiers who came in with a murderous look, crossed their legs, sat on the first floor like this, and watched quietly.

The singers and dancers had long lost their former splendor. They watched the officers of the Prison Officer inspect the whole building, hand in hand with the soldiers of the Bing Ma Division, and then receded like a tide, but they were not at all fortunate.

The jailer left, but the more ruthless ones came.

Soon, someone discovered that the dignitaries in the entire building, no matter how prominent their net worth, were all as docile as sheep in front of Bingmasi, but there was one person who was still sitting there calmly, watching all this with a smile.

Who is this handsome gentleman?

"The people upstairs haven't escaped yet, have they?" Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao asked lightly, pinching the folding fan in his hand.

Among the three strong men guarding behind him, Huang Degong, one of the brave guards, bowed and said:

"Back to the son, some people in the prison department were greedy for wealth and honor, and feared revenge, so they let some people go. Fengyang Bingmasi's people are pretty reliable, and the second floor is under control."

Huang Degong has served as a personal guard next to Zhu Youxiao in the past year, and he has lost a lot of childishness in his youth, and lost a lot of escapism. He also learned a lot of warfare theory in the capital, and made friends with a group of generals.

There is also the name of the emperor's personal guard, which is helpful to him.

With him now, Zhu Youxiao was relieved to let him go out to lead troops.

As for Lu Xiangsheng, the No. [-] in the second year of Tianqi, Zhu Youxiao has been watching after he was thrown to the Hanlin Academy for editing.

In the next three years of Tianqi, Zhu Youxiao checked the two of them, and Sun Chuanting, who led the Qin army to station in Suzhou, had a plan.

"Ah."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, glanced at Yueminglou, which had been made a fuss by Bingmasi, and said:

"I think the two officials who are fat and thin, the prison secretary, are good. Who is the local governor? Zhou Yi, let him mention these two."

"The official servants who released people privately should be withdrawn. The vacant places will be selected from the batch of soap servants who work hard in arresting people, but are not long-term government servants."

Huang Degong didn't speak, but Wang Chaofu, who was accompanying him out of the palace, gently reminded him:

"Master, Governor Zhou is also involved in embezzling disaster relief funds..."

Zhu Youxiao slapped his forehead and laughed:

"I have forgotten, then you can ask Wang Chenen to go to the Chasi Yamen in disguise, and mention what I just said to them."

"Also, the post of governor of Fengyang should be removed..."

Chapter 271 Rubbing the cards, shuffling the cards

The fat and thin officials didn't know that the arrest of him this time was a turning point in his life's fate.

This time when I came to Fengyang, the local officials and gentry were already on the verge of flying before the people arrived, and the few days after entering the city, everyone in this group of officials was even more in danger.

But Zhu Youxiao doesn't care, it's the same as the last time I went to the Southwest to quell the chaos. Is it true that when I came down this time, I went to Jiangnan to play like Qianlong?

Isn't it just to sort out the place, and it's worth entering the game in person.

Of course, even though he entered the game in person, Zhu Youxiao didn't do it himself, this time he was just watching from the sidelines.

The jailer inspected the Yueming Building because he had received a report from someone.

As for who this so-and-so is, it doesn't matter, what matters is the testimony that the jailer can produce to report and expose, which can be justified and inspected.
