Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division
Jia Heng entered, sat in the Yamen for a long time, and then changed into casual clothes in the inner hall. Then he led Cai Quan and Xie Zaiyi out of the back door and sneaked out to Jinyi Mansion.
In Jinyi Mansion, it was still quiet in the morning, with only the chirping of birds coming from far and near in the woods. Jinyi guards and clerks in flying fish uniforms looked hurriedly, going in and out of various rooms, busy. There is an air of orderliness.
After Jia Heng showed his waist card, he entered in a low-key manner. In the inner hall, he saw Qu Lang, two fellow intellectuals in Jinyi, Lu Jingyao, Ji Yingtian and several other families, sitting around a table with the outline of Shenjing. The map of 108 squares, what are the guides talking about.
Because not all members of the Sanhe Gang buy property in Dongcheng, these Jianghu gangs will not be unaware of the principle of Cunning Rabbit's Three Caves. After launching the Jinyiwei Detective Investigation, Li Jinzhu, the head of the Sanhe Gang, even in Yongyefang, a place where officials live in groups, has I have a house, although I don’t go there often.
Jia Heng entered the official hall and saw that there were many people in the administrative hall, looking like they were discussing matters, and he felt secretly satisfied.
Only then did it look like a professional intelligence agency.
"Sir." Seeing Jia Heng come in, several senior officials of the Jinyi Mansion who were talking around the table stood up and bowed their heads in greeting, not daring to look directly at the visitor.
Even Lu Jingyao and Ji Yingtian looked respectful. It was clear that Dai Quan went to Jinyi Mansion last night to deliver Emperor Chongping's oral instructions.
"Thank you all for your hard work." Jia Heng nodded, glanced at the colleagues and Qianhu in Jinyi Mansion, his eyes lingered on the respectful faces of Lu and Ji, and said: "Two adults , your eyes are bloodshot, didn’t you sleep well last night?”
Lu Jingyao forced a smile on his face and said: "The emperor's mission is urgent, where can I sleep well?"
Ji Yingtian also smiled and agreed: "Yes, take care of this matter quickly, so that everyone can feel at ease."
Qu Lang stood aside and said loudly: "Master Jia, these two masters and several other masters from Qianhu were gathering intelligence last night and were busy until Chou Shi. After a short nap, they came here early in the morning."
When Jia Heng heard this, he knew that these words were obviously not to bring shame on the faces of Lu and Ji, but to the Qianhu in the Wei Mansion as a way to unite his colleagues.
He couldn't help but secretly thought that no one who could mess around in Jinyi Mansion was really stupid.
Chong Qulang and several Qianhu nodded and said: "You are worthy of being Lao Jinyi. You are loyal to the country and can still withstand troubles at critical times."
Several Qianhu heard that Jia Heng, who had scolded them yesterday, looked happy. Looking at Qu Fuqianhu who was standing aside, the original idea of "eating everything" in their minds was somewhat dispelled.
Many people are thinking that the few hundred households in Weili were really shameful before. As the emperor's eagle dogs, they were bribed and turned into gang lackeys. It was too low.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he also walked to the table and said in a deep voice: "Let me introduce the situation first."
Qu Lang said: "Sir, I have basically found out the residences of several heads of the Sanhe Gang. They all have residences in Dongcheng, perhaps for the purpose of discussing affairs. They are all around the residence of Li Jinzhu in Anyifang, in Xilin Hutong. At the same time, Li Jinzhu also bought three houses in Yongye Fang and Xinghua Fang on the west side of Zhuque Street, but he didn’t go there often. There were nine other deputy hall masters, and they set up houses in Xicheng and Nancheng. There are all property owners, as for the helmsman and deputy helmsman, there are more than thirty, and the deacons and disciples further down are at the two ferries in the east city, where dragons and snakes are mixed, the city walls are dilapidated, and the brothers in the mansion are still searching .”
At this time, a member of the Qianhu family said: "Sir, the fourth head of the house, Han Ziping, purchased a house in Chongxianfang near the Imperial College, and his family is there."
With that said, Qu Lang handed a blue-sealed book to Jia Heng and said, "Sir, it contains some of the residential addresses of several heads, hall masters and helmsmen of the Sanhe Gang, but there are still many incomplete details. Detective Detecting."
Jia Heng took the book, sneered, and said in a deep voice: "It has really been wreaking havoc in the East City for more than ten years. Cunning rabbits have three holes. They have bought properties everywhere. They have even bought houses in the school district."
"School district room?" Everyone looked confused for a moment, but they didn't go into details.
Jia Heng flipped through the books, and the sound of "swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe."
"Continue to investigate and strictly control the situation. Once activated, we must kill all the leaders above the deputy helmsman. At least half of the deacons and disciples will be destroyed! They must not be allowed to gather at the canal work to cause trouble!" Jia Heng's eyes were dark. He said coldly, pointed to the book in his hand, and said, "Why is there not much information about the second master Pan Jian in it?"
At this time, a member of the Qianhu family looked solemn and explained: "Sir, this Pan Er is in charge of the Yutang of the Sanhe Gang. He also has a group of spies. Although he owns property, he usually stays at Li Jiuniang's place. The people here are slippery and alert, so we shouldn’t follow them too closely.”
"Doesn't he have a family?" Jia Heng frowned, his eyes were a little deeper, and he tapped the table with his index finger, feeling that this person might be unusual.
"Yes, but his family is not in Shenjing, but in Jinling." Another Qianhu with a slightly darker complexion said, "Do you want Feige to send a message and let the brothers in Jinling keep an eye on it?"
Jia Heng frowned and said in a deep voice: "Just keep an eye on him first. He holds a secret agent and should be the think tank of the Sanhe Gang. This person is difficult to deal with. Do you have a skilled Lao Jinyi in your house to monitor him?" Hold him."
If he hadn't been worried about people from the Sanhe Gang coercing Cao into trouble, he would have taken action long ago. If such a leader were to escape, he would probably cause trouble.
Qu Lang frowned and said, "Sir, how about I personally lead someone to keep an eye on him?"
"Well, follow first. It's best... to find an opportunity to kill him! I always feel that this person is a big trouble." Jia Heng said thoughtfully.
Qu Lang's eyes flashed, nodded, and said: "Don't worry, sir, I will keep an eye on him personally."
After giving the instructions, Jia Heng flipped through the book again and said calmly: "It is best to ensure that all members of the gang above the deputy helmsman are under control. If this is not possible, don't be too demanding. Try to keep everything as stable as possible and don't shock them. I’ll come over quietly in the evening and we’ll gather it together again.”
"Yes, sir." After hearing this, all the people in Jinyi cupped their hands and said.
"Gentlemen, after this time, I will ask for credit from the Holy One, taking Jinyi Mansion as the first one. Whether or not the shame that is raging in Zongdong City can be washed away depends entirely on your efforts." Jia Heng glanced at the thousands of Jinyi households.
It's not like he hasn't thought about whether these people would leak the news.
But there will never be such a stupid person, because if it doesn't work this time, the court will only be angrier.
Secondly, the Jinyi Mansion didn't know when he would take action, and they didn't force him right under their noses. The Sanhe Gang didn't have any brains. They jumped over the wall before they were forced into a dead end?
I haven't even sat down yet, so you turned the table over?
Sorry, the soup and water on the table will not be enough to pour on me, and it may also cause greater suppression. It may not be possible to directly mobilize the army to take over Dongcheng, and the leader of the troops may not be Jia Heng!
It would be much easier if the Sanhe Gang were all idiots like this.
Everyone said in unison: "Thank you, sir."
Jia Heng made a few more remarks, then looked at Qu Lang and said, "Deputy Qu Qianhu, please come out with me."
Qu Lang nodded, left the Secretary's Office, and came to the eaves of the corridor.
Jia Heng said: "This Pan Jian, you should be careful when watching him. If you are not completely sure, don't take action. In addition, the undercover force in the Sanhe Gang controlled by him needs to be dug out."
Qu Lang nodded and said: "Sir, Lao Zhao who went to Nanzhen Fusi is good at this. How about I let someone know about it later and let him lead someone to keep an eye on it?"
"Zhao Yi?" Jia Heng frowned, nodded, and said, "You can ask him for help. We are brothers who have lived together through life and death."
"Previously, there was no shortage of children in Fusi in Beizhen, so we transferred Lao Zhao to serve with Zheng Qianshi in Fusi in South Town." Qu Lang thought for a while and explained.
When Jia Heng heard this, he pondered: "But after this incident, I think there will be a few missing children in Beizhen Fusi."
Not to mention anything else, if someone is promoted to the commander of the capital, the carrot pit below will be freed up.
When Qu Lang heard this, his heart moved, he cupped his hands and said, "I'll resign from my humble post."
Jia Heng watched Qu Lang leave with a gloomy expression on his face, thinking, "No matter what, Captain Qiu has to snipe. But Qu Lang's level is not high enough and he can't even block the position, and there is Jinyi Mansion." This organization was operating at full capacity. Almost overnight, it was able to get all the information about several heads of the Sanhe Gang. Although such intelligence capabilities are limited to a place like Shenjing that has been painstakingly managed for many years, it is really terrifying. , it won’t work if you don’t have your own people here.”
Ask him to build an intelligence agency from beginning to end, even if he invests the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver he just confiscated, it will never be possible in less than five years.
Moreover, there is another fatal question. What do you, a minister, want to do by recruiting people and setting up an intelligence agency?
Do you want to use investigation methods to fight against the center?
Or is it raising dead soldiers for evil purposes?
It's okay to do it on a small scale, but once it reaches a large scale, even if it's innocent, it becomes a sin.
"How can I get this intelligence agency into my pocket? I can't ask for it myself, but let the emperor give it to me. Xu has to find a way..." Jia Heng's eyes looked into the distance, moving rapidly, from Just now, during some operations of Jinyi Mansion, I was somewhat tempted by this organization. Wow, when you raise your head and see that shooting star, it’s so beautiful
"The key here is still Donglu. If we continue to give psychological hints to the emperor in the name of "stabbing the enemy and assisting the military in planning", then we will have a chance. Otherwise, anything in the name of the sword will be the result of Lu, Ji, and Qiu. The path of the three of them, not my own role, because no matter how good I am, I am still just Lu Bing, and it would be good if he can die well. On the contrary, for most people, the final ending is just Ji Gang." Jia Heng's eyes were deep, I thought in my mind.
Now Chen Han, it can be said that whoever catches Donglu has caught the "code of power" that has skyrocketed.
As long as he instilled the theory of intelligence warfare into Emperor Chongping when he was writing "Pinglu Ce", it would be very possible for him to take over the Jinyi Mansion.
Instead, use a sharp knife to confiscate homes and destroy families, and engage in the "night walk in brocade" style.
Although it may be prominent and majestic for a while, it is itself a vassal of the imperial power. To put it bluntly, it is a sword of the emperor. A sword is a sword. It is difficult to gather a decisive political force.
Because without political opinions, there is no political appeal. It would be great for a person who does dirty work to reach the level of Director Hoover. As for this director, it is said that he also has a background in library and archive management.
"And what I want to do is...Cao Mengde, Yuan Xiangcheng, and Zeng Wenzheng all had their own guns, pens, and money bags. At that time, the vast land dominated the ups and downs of China. The artifacts of Chen and Han, whether they were supported or usurped, were only determined by my thoughts. Between!" Gu He
And no one thought that right here where the Imperial Guards were, where the emperor's minions gathered, there would be such a "rebellious minister and traitor" who "had never established a belief in respecting the imperial power and had extremely ambitious political ambitions", and his heart was arousing unlimited ambitions.
As for having the ambition to help the world when he first entered officialdom, does it seem too ambitious?
How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?
Just like Hanzawa entered the bank just to be a banker, someone told Owada, and Owada looked puzzled and said, "Don't you? There are still people who enter the bank not to be a banker?"
Could it be that it is for mixed establishment?
"Sir." At this moment, Cai Quan on the side called Jia Heng.
Jia Heng put away some thoughts, looked at Cai Quan and Xie Zaiyi who came with him, and said: "Let's go back to the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, and then go to Dongcheng."
In order to deceive others, he could not go out directly from Jinyi Mansion now. He could only go back to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and then go to Dongcheng.
Shenjing East City, Jinmei Building
This three-story pavilion decorated with brocaded silks and silks is filled with the sounds of singing and dancing, and the sound of orchestral strings.
It was already mid-noon, and a room was luxuriously decorated, with a wool carpet underneath, agarwood mixed with ice silk, and green smoke rising from the animal head incense cage.
On the bed surrounded by pink curtains, Jia Lian, who had just woken up from a fierce battle last night, was holding two women from Suzhou, one on the left and one on the right, kissing their cheeks, and showing off their sexual desires.
These two Jiangnan women, with their delicate figures and sweet voices, made him linger a little bit.
"My Second Master Lian, you just worked hard last night. You just got up and you are working like a greedy cat for a few days." A woman with a beautiful face stretched out her snow-white lotus root arm and pushed Jia Lian away. The hand that caught the monster, the soft and sweet voice sounded, with a bit of anger.
"Good sister, the day's plan is in the morning, let your brother love you." Jia Lian said with a smile, her handsome face was rosy and full of excitement.
His Feng'er was usually not allowed to change his posture, so how could these two people, who knew both cold and hot, be at their mercy?
But at this moment, there was only a "bang" sound, the door suddenly opened, and several people came in darkly, and said with a smile: "Second Master Lian, are you playing?"
Gao Jin, the deputy head of the Lei Hall of the Sanhe Gang, took his two brothers and entered the wing with a smile. He glanced at Jia Lian, who was already looking frightened. He pulled up a chair and sat down with a golden sword. On the Taishi chair.
"You... who are you? Get out!" Jia Lian's face changed drastically, and he said in fear, shouting: "Xing'er, Long'er, come here quickly, will..."
"Second Master Lian, stop yelling." The high deputy hall master looked at Jia Lian, his eyes were fixed on his handsome face, and his heart felt hot.
He secretly thought, this young master from the Duke's mansion is just different. Looking at the thin skin and tender meat, he looks like this... He is so cool!
Jia Lian was stared at by this "hot" gaze, and his heart suddenly trembled. An unexplained coldness seeped out from his back and hit his spine and tailbone. He was so familiar with this girl's gaze.
Sometimes when he got angry, he would look at the boy like this, and the handsome boy would get angry.
For example, Chapter 21 of A Dream of Red Mansions contains, "Jia Lian started to stir up trouble just after being away from Sister Feng. After sleeping alone for two nights, he felt very uncomfortable, so he temporarily selected a handsome young man among the servants to make him angry."
Jia Lian was about to get out of bed when he saw two men behind the bald man opposite, one on the left and one on the right, holding their shoulders, blocking his way home with a fierce look on his face.
The high deputy hall leader waved his hands in disgust at the two naked girls on the bed, as if to ward off flies. Suddenly, the two women looked frightened, lifted up the hibiscus embroidered quilt, hugged their skirts and ran out of the wing.
"You...what are you going to do?" Jia Lian was panic-stricken. He picked up the quilt and hugged himself into a ball, huddled in the corner. His handsome face was pale, and his peach blossom eyes were filled with fear.
"My good brother," Gao Jin, the deputy leader of the Lei Hall of the Sanhe Gang, smiled. His eyes lingered on Jia Lian's chest and snow-white buttocks. He touched his bald head with his big, short-fingered cattail leaf fan hand and laughed. Then he said: "What do you think I want to do? Of course... I'll fuck you!"
This second master Lian is so cool, with those peach-blossom eyes, such a face, and tender skin, I really want to pierce him with a big beard.
Thinking like this, he sat up from the Taishi chair and rubbed his big hands on the cattail leaf fan, as if he was ready to pounce on food from a hungry tiger at any moment.
When Jia Lian heard this, his face turned pale and he yelled, "I am from the Rongguo Mansion. If you dare to touch me, the mansion will never let you go!"
"Hey, Second Master Lian is threatening me?" Deputy Hall Master Gao sneered and said, "But, do you think I will be afraid?"
Seeing the bald man opposite him pause, Jia Lian became more courageous and threatened: "My father is the first-class general of the imperial court, and I, the leader of the Jia clan, am now the third-class general and in charge of the five-city army and horse department. How dare you touch me?" A single hair will definitely tear you into pieces!"
Vice Hall Master Gao suddenly walked to the window and sneered: "I will touch your hair right now!"
Heita's figure pressed over, and Jia Lian became angry. He picked up the pillow and threw it at the high deputy hall leader.
Deputy Hall Master Gao chuckled, showed a flash of interest, and said, "Young man, you're pretty strong!"
Jia Lian's face turned pale and he said in horror: "Don't come here. My brother is Jia Heng. He is the Jia Heng who was so powerful in Shenjing and defeated the bandits in Cuihua Mountain. You want money, and I will give you money. I have a lot of money at home... …”
Vice Hall Master Gao stepped forward and tried to pull the quilt away, but Jia Lian held Yi Jiao and refused to let go.
"Hey!"
But after all, he was a playboy who had no power to restrain himself. He was immediately grabbed by the quilt by the high deputy hall leader and thrown aside.
Vice Hall Master Gao looked at the naked Jia Lian, and his eyes under his broken eyebrows became even more intense.
If several leaders in the gang had not told him not to touch Jia Lian for the time being, he would have thought of killing this little goblin!
Jia Lian screamed, "Help, help!"
As he spoke, he used his hands and feet to crawl under the bed beside him.
However, the high deputy hall leader grabbed his arm and pulled him over.
"If you dare to yell again, I will castrate you!" The high deputy hall leader said viciously, and with a squeak, a dagger appeared in his palm, with a sharp edge like water and a cold blade.
Jia Lian hurriedly shrank in the corner as if struck by thunder, looking at the big man opposite in horror.
Vice Hall Master Gao sneered and said, "Come here! Cut off a lock of your hair!"
Jia Lian was trembling all over and said: "Hero, if you have something to say, please tell me. If you want money, I have some in my bag. If I don't have any, you can go to the house to get it!"
Vice Hall Master Gao snorted coldly, but got on the bed. Without any explanation, he pressed Jia Lian's shoulders, grabbed a lock of hair, and cut it off amidst Jia Lian's heart-rending screams.
"Bring Mr. Lian's sachet over here and tie the sachet into this hair." Deputy Hall Master Gao turned back to the men behind him and said.
"Yes." A man went up to pick it up, and then went to search for Jia Lian's sachet.
"Second Master Lian, let me take a look at this small body?" The high deputy hall leader put away the dagger, chuckled, and began to take advantage of Jia Lian with his big hands.
A big man standing aside said hesitantly: "Master, the master said..."
Vice Hall Master Gao sneered and said, "You don't need to make noises. I have a sense of propriety. If you touch him, he won't lose a piece of meat. He really doesn't give us face, so I have his own benefits!"
Although he said this, he still restrained himself a bit.
What if he makes peace with the gang leader? He is too presumptuous and it will be difficult to explain in the end.
At this moment, Jia Lian was being touched by the rough palm-leaf fan hands of Deputy Hall Master Gao, and he felt humiliation welling up in his heart. But listening to the conversation between the two, he felt relieved, at least his innocence was preserved.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help suppressing the fear in my heart for the time being, and said in a trembling voice: "This brother, who do you want to give me face to?"
Vice Hall Master Gao sneered: "I might as well tell you that the one in your East Mansion won't give our brothers a way to survive. It's up to him now. If you don't understand current affairs, you..."
As he said that, he patted Jia Lian's butt with his big hand.
When Jia Lian heard this, his face changed drastically, and his heart was filled with turmoil. He was both shocked and angry.
Okay, it’s you...Uncle Heng from Dongfu!
You act as your good official, and I don't provoke you on weekdays. How can you implicate me?
Damn it, you are at home...whoring in a brothel, disaster comes from heaven!
