Cizhou Prefecture has six counties under its jurisdiction and is also the seat of Cizhou Xing Yushitai.
According to the official system of Daliang, there is a clerk from Jingyesi who joins the army, and a clerk from Tiqi who is sentenced to thousands of households to garrison here.
The county captains in each county usually only manage public security. If they really want to kill monsters and catch ghosts, they still have to rely on Jingyesi and Tiqi.
There are practitioners in Jingyesi who serve the imperial court.
Tiqi is a demon-catching iron fist trained in the imperial court.
The two are enemies of each other, but at the same time they cooperate a lot.
Today, Shi Chibao of Cizhou Tixing Qianhu Station sent his men to invite Liu Canjun from Jingyesi to discuss the matter together.
The yamen of Tixing Qianhu Office is not big, most of it is underground, with a total of seven floors. They are suppressed by all kinds of demons and ghosts. The yamen on the ground is low and low, and there is no prestige at all.
Shi Chibao is a sixth-grade Confucian disciple. He once worshiped under the Yuelu Mountain Gate. He possesses a pure Imperial Image Holy Breaking Technique and is regarded as the most promising newcomer in the Tiqi system to hit the fifth-grade cultivation level.
He is short in stature and has a long beard. He likes to wear blue and plain clothes on weekdays. He looks like a middle-aged scholar, not at all like a ruthless official who has the power of life and death.
Behind the main hall of Qianhusuo is a picture of the sea and the sun rising in the east. On the picture is a plaque made of gloomy wood with the four words "Day patrol and night tour" written on it.
The hall is full of bookshelves, and there is a small area in the middle, where several Tiqi wearing unicorn uniforms are checking files and writing case files.
Files were placed on the heavy huanghuali desk, and a freshly poured Longjing cup was placed next to Shi Chibao. He took a sip of the sweet tea soup and asked the Baihu official next to him who was signing documents.
"Have you ever tortured the water monster you caught a few days ago?"
"The water monster in Chenjiazhuang is the seventh level of cultivation. He pretends to be a god and asks for boys and girls. We have sent people to capture him. He is a carp who practices the Buddhist method and has become a spirit. There is a broken sacred vessel in his body, which has penetrated his bones and collars. The day before yesterday After receiving the transfer document from Jiankang, he was beheaded on the spot and tortured. The incomplete sacred vessel dissipated and returned to heaven and earth. One demon pill was obtained, and other fragments were placed in the treasury."
Shi Chibao nodded.
"Li Baihu, you choose a few of the most useful ones from the few flag officers under your command and go to Yongning County in person. There are demons who are abducting children and refining magic weapons. They seem to be witchcraft. Be careful during this trip. , report any changes to me as soon as possible."
The Baihu official surnamed Li stood up and saluted Shi Chibao with his fists clasped, then took the order and left.
Tiqi was established in the early years of the Liang Dynasty. Emperor Taizu, who started his business at that time, had an extremely capable bodyguard under his command.
In view of the decline of humanity and the turmoil of the current situation, they were unified into a team dedicated to detecting all kinds of monsters and monsters, and were also responsible for spying on intelligence and gathering information.
After so many years of operation, Jiankang City has two divisions, the North and the South, and has set up prisons for thousands of households in various states to privately inspect various incidents in various prefectures and counties.
It can be regarded as the most capable and loyal force under Emperor Liang.
Shi Chibao's ancestors had served in Tiqi for generations. He worked conscientiously in his post at the Cizhou Tixing Qianhu Office. Generally speaking, he did not let any major changes occur in the place under his control.
But there was something on Shi Chibao's mind today that kept him from feeling happy.
The problem still lies in Guobei County and Shanyin County.
Early this morning, he received two letters, the first from the county magistrate of Shanyin County, and the other from the magistrate of Guobei County.
The document from Guobei County was simply a letter of commendation from the county magistrate. The county magistrate said that under his governance, the number of ghosts and ghosts in the county had been greatly reduced, and they had probably all moved outside.
Now the county can be said to be clean and clear. Except for a few old ghosts who are still stubbornly resisting, there are no other problems for the time being.
However, the county's ability is limited after all, so I asked Tiqi for help and went to the county to actually investigate and see if there were any other changes.
Shi Chibao regarded this document from Guobei County as nothing more than a fart.
The sixth grade of Confucianism has the art of watching the emperor's qi. From a close distance, one can observe the changes in qi movement to defeat the enemy. From a distance, one can observe the changes in mountains, rivers, grass, trees and clouds to predict future changes.
In Guobei County, the evil spirit is flying across the sky and the color is dark and mysterious, which is a sign that the Yin energy has condensed and the ghosts are flourishing.
Guobei County probably happened to have a few old ghosts going out to visit relatives and friends, so the Guobei County Magistrate took credit for it.
Throughout the article, there is no mention of which evil ghosts were killed or how many old ghosts were driven away. It is clearly confusing right and wrong.
Shi Chibao had already developed a pair of iron eyes in official correspondence, and he could see the problems here at a glance.
The other letter is from Shanyin County.
Shi Chibao had to take this letter seriously.
First of all, the Shanyin County Magistrate is not in the county. The letter is signed by the county magistrate, the chief registrar and the county captain.
This shows that the matter has reached the point where the three of them have to jointly report it. This must be a big deal.
The second is the special status of Shanyin County Lieutenant.
The captain of Shanyin County, surnamed Su, was born in the Su family of Duling.
Tiqi has always been under the management of the inner court. The newly appointed Royal Horse Supervisor and Admiral Eunuch is named Su. Shi Chibao has already caught the wind. It is estimated that this person will work for a few years, and then he will be promoted to the Royal Horse Supervisor, Palm Seal Eunuch and admiral of Tiqi.
This Su County lieutenant cannot afford to offend one of his own.
If identity is just a prerequisite that he must pay attention to, then the new content makes him pay special attention to it.
The treasury was robbed by a big demon, and words of rebellion suddenly appeared in the ancient temple in the county. A group of ghosts connected with the monsters and planned to rebel.
Shi Chibao's first reaction was disbelief.
One thing here is outrageous enough, and it is absolutely impossible for three things to happen together.
But he couldn't help but believe it.
Because every thing here is a major matter that he cannot ignore.
For this reason, he repeatedly looked at the situation in Shanyin County today and concluded that Shanyin County was still the same Shanyin County as before.
Either the secret was concealed by an expert, or someone in Shanyin County was up to something.
Shi Chibao now strongly suspected that the new Su County captain was the one who was causing trouble.
But the problem is that he cannot afford to offend Su County Lieutenant.
Therefore, Shi Chibao ordered his men to summon the leader of Jingyesi in Jiangzhou and command his minister Liu Yu to discuss the matter together.
Let’s discuss it together if there’s anything we need to do.
Otherwise, Tiqi's heavy lifting would be treated as a top priority, while Jingyesi's heavy lifting would be treated as the fart of a certain dandy from Shanyin County.
It was a joke for everyone.
Shi Chibao thought it would be best for the two families to come together and adopt the same attitude.
"Lord Qianhu, Jingyesi Liu Yuliu, Commander-in-Chief, has arrived."
A general banner from his subordinates was announced outside. Shi Chibao straightened his clothes and walked out to greet him.
Tiqi's Ti Xing Qian Hu and Jing Yesi's command Qian Shi are enemies. They are all on the same level and there is no reason to sit in the Yamen and let Liu Yu come to pay homage.
As soon as he left the Yamen, Shi Chibao saw Jing Yesi, who had a bad look on his face.
