The fight between Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng in the north was in full swing, and the Chuanghuang and ordinary people in various places under the jurisdiction of Beihai Town were also paying close attention.
For example, Cao Peng, the director of the Ningguta Military Control Commission, calls the Northern Navy Staff Headquarters every day to inquire about the progress of the battle. In addition, a criminal case that shocked neighboring villages in mid-August also attracted most of Cao Peng's attention.
On the evening of September 5, a young man wearing a brand new blue cotton jacket walked into the courtyard of the Ningguta Public Security Police Station.
"Who are you looking for?" Seeing that the person had a shaved head and was wearing two-piece overalls, the security police on duty thought he was from Beihai Town.
"I want to report that someone raped and killed someone!"
After hearing this, the security policeman on duty suddenly changed his expression and hurriedly brought the man into the house to talk. After sitting down and asking, I found out that this young man's name was Nian Wang and he came from Sanxing City.
"I am also a Han Chinese. Speaking of which, my grandfather was persecuted to death by the Manchu emperor." Nian Wang showed a look of regret and dissatisfaction on his face, and continued: "Alas! In fact, our ancestors also wanted to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, but who can think of it? It’s not as good as God’s will.”
The security policeman in charge of recording blinked his eyes, looked at this emotional performance, and asked calmly: "Who is your grandfather?"
"Ancestor Shuangfeng Duke."
"Huh?" The security guard looked at the other party blankly, which meant that he had never heard of it.
Nian Wang pursed his dry lips, rolled his eyes and said, "General Nian, you have always heard of it, right?"
The security policeman felt that this title sounded familiar. He was from Shandong. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said: "Nian Gengyao? Are you a descendant of Nian Gengyao?"
A smile appeared on Nian Wang's face, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Yes, yes."
In the third year of Yongzheng's reign, the Nian Gengyao incident occurred. His fourth son, Nian Xing, was dismissed from his position as a first-class bodyguard and assistant leader. They got married privately and were exiled to three surnames. This Nian Wang is Nian Xing's son.
In fact, under Cao Peng's rule, in addition to Nian Gengyao's descendants, there were also many other celebrities related to historical events!
It is said that since taking office, the first thing Cao Peng did was to inventory materials and verify the household registration of the people within his jurisdiction.
Although the official archives of Ningguta and Sanxing City are all in Manchu, Beihai Town has also trained hundreds of ethnic minority cadres over the years, including former Yiding from Fuldan City and people with the Sa surname from Balke Village. Hezhe people. For example, Baman Gong, who once worked as a postman in Fuldan City, and Qiji, a villager in Balke Village, are now assisting Cao Peng in Ninggu Pagoda.
Today, Cao Peng is responsible for the management of two towns, Ningguta City and Sanxing City, as well as thirty-seven natural villages. There are more than 20,000 people in the area, which is currently the third largest city after Fuldan City and Beihai Town. Big "city".
As a capital city outside the Northern Pass in the Qing Dynasty, the internal situation in Ningguta's jurisdiction was extremely complicated, so even though it had been occupied for two years, military control was still implemented. Although the majority of local residents are Manchus, there are not many old Manchus left today. The local Manchu surnames include Guarjia, Jueluo, Boheli, Dong'e, etc. These people either fled to Jilin Ula or followed Naqitai to the Li Dynasty. Most of those who stayed in Ningguta were the "New Manchuria" composed of Hezhe, Feyaka, Qiler, Chakara Jurchen, Oroqen, and Kuye Feyaka.
It is said that in the ninth year of Tiancong (1635), Huang Taiji issued an order to ban the name Zhushen and determined the clan name "Manzhou". After that, according to the chronological order of conquest and surrender, the ethnic minorities under the rule, the remaining Jurchen tribes in the Northeast and other tribes who were registered as banners were called "Yiche Manchuria"; while the early Eight Banners Zhushen were called "Buddha Manchuria" ", that is, old Manchuria.
As for the Han people, it is more mixed, including criminals who were exiled during the Shun, Kang and Yong eras, literary prisoners in the early years, losers in internal struggles within the officialdom, etc. Fang Gongqian, an exile during the Shunzhi period, once said: "Ningguta, the Chinese have 13 provinces, no provinces and no one." Since the 24th year of Qianlong, the exiles have almost no longer been assigned to Ningguta and Heilongjiang. Usually it is Yili, after all, farming there requires a lot of labor.
What surprised Cao Peng was that during the population verification process, someone actually claimed to be a descendant of Zheng Zhibao, and several Manchu families claimed that they were descendants of the "Ming History Case".
In December of the seventh year of Yongli in the Southern Ming Dynasty, Zheng Zhibao followed his eldest brother Zheng Zhilong and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. The Qing court then recruited Zheng Chenggong. Unexpectedly, Zheng Chenggong was unmoved and resisted resolutely. So in anger, the Qing court imprisoned Zheng Zhilong, while Zheng Zhibao was imprisoned. He was sent to Ninggu Pagoda and imprisoned until death. During this period, Zheng Zhibao found a local female prisoner to help him live, so he kept this one.
However, Zheng Zhibao's descendants have now become Manchu, and his only descendant is named Qi Bao, who is less than thirty this year. Ever since his grandfather's generation was freed from slavery and became a naturalized citizen, the family's living customs have become the same as those of other Manchus. Fortunately, Qi Bao's grandma was still alive. He remembered that such a thing happened in his ancestors. If the Beihai Navy hadn't come to check the household registration, the old lady would never have told her about it.
The descendants of the "Ming History Case" are basically passed down from the maternal line. This is mainly because almost all the men involved in the case could not escape death, and those who survived were the women who were exiled to Ninggu Pagoda as slaves. As soon as the Northern Navy arrived, these Jiangnan women and the descendants of the Manchu armored soldiers immediately gave up their Manchu identity and claimed that they were Han Chinese with upright Miaohong roots.
Cao Peng just sneered at these two groups of people and ignored them at all. Why didn't Zhao Xin see you join him when he attacked Ninggu Pagoda for the first time? Now I think of my ancestors, but it’s too late!
Closer to home, according to Nian Wang, he came to report this time because a clerk from Beihai Trading Company named Li Da was purchasing deer antler in Qiji Township outside Sanxing City. He intended to rape Ximutiqi, the daughter of the local widow Ondali. The woman refused to obey, so Li Da relied on her Han identity to beat her until her bones were broken. The pain was so painful that the woman hanged herself unjustly.
Afterwards, villagers gathered together to make trouble with weapons. Zhou Tai, Qian Sen, and Zhang Qi, who were traveling with Beihai Trading Co., Ltd., had no choice but to promise property to calm the trouble. They took the two relatives of the deceased back to Sanxing and reported to the Public Security Police Department. They asked for help, and after paying one hundred Beihai silver dollars to the two relatives of the deceased, they threatened and intimidated them and drove them away.
Cao Peng was shocked when he heard this. If the matter was as serious as what Nian Wang said, and the villagers armed themselves to cause trouble, and the suspects linked up with the security police, then the case must be extraordinary and would seriously shake the situation in the northeastern coastal border area outside Beihai Town. political stability.
It is said that Ninggu Pagoda under the rule of the Qing Dynasty has always been a distribution center for medicinal materials. Since the Northern Navy occupied Ninggu Pagoda, the number of Shanxi businessmen coming to purchase medicinal materials has suddenly decreased. The role of border trade with Li Dynasty was completely replaced by Hunchun.
Since Cao Peng took office, he has handed over the purchase of medicinal materials to the "Beihai Trading Company" under the name of the Ministry of Trade. Whether it was mink skin, ginseng, deer antlers or other medicinal materials, the clerks of the "Beihai Trading Company" were responsible for going to the countryside to purchase them. At the same time, they shipped a large amount of light industrial products, silk and cotton cloth to meet the daily needs of the border residents.
In doing so, one is to cancel the heavy tribute burden in each township in the past, and the other is to use door-to-door services to bring closer the relationship between Beihai Town and the border residents of each township.
So after some consideration, Cao Peng first sent a telegram to the Beihai Town Public Security Police Department to report the situation, and asked Katabei to send someone there. At the same time, he ordered the Ninguguta Public Security Police Department to launch an investigation.
In early September, the Ningguta Public Security Police Station sent people in disguise to Qiji Township. The person responsible for investigating the case was Sergeant Ba Mangon. Since joining Beihai Town five years ago, this person has been working in the civil affairs for the first two years. He was transferred from the civil affairs the year before last and entered the public security police system after training.
After Baman Gong arrived at the gathering, he quickly obtained the confessions of the victim's mother, brother, and the township head, and thus learned the general story of the incident.
The real name of the victim named Ximutiqi when Nianwang reported the crime was Una; his widowed mother was not named Ondali, but Jiahan.
On August 12, 1790, Li Da and his party came to Qiji Township to buy deer antlers. After lunch, they went to the river for a stroll. Oona happened to be collecting firewood by the river. Li Da saw that Una was young and pretty, so he had evil thoughts in his heart. Xu first used silk cloth to lure him, but when Una refused, he took him to the willow tree by the river bank, tore his clothes to pieces, and tried to do evil. Una screamed and struggled continuously before looking for an opportunity to escape home. On the way to escape, he was kicked in the buttocks by Li Da and fell down.
The next day, Una was so ashamed and angry that he hanged himself on a willow tree half a mile away from his home. After his mother Jiahan collected her daughter's body, she and her son Getul went to sue Li Da to the team leader Zhou Tai. Li Da argued that his affair with Una was actually an affair and not rape. After discussion between Zhou Tai and Qiji Township Chief Jinzhuke and others, it was decided that Li Da should compensate the widow Jiahan with a bear skin, three iron pots, five fishing nets, two aluminum cans, and a steel ax in accordance with the local customary law of Hezhe. Three pieces and one hacksaw, and Jiahan must give Li Da five mink skins in return. In this way, both parties settled the murder case privately. At that time, no relatives went to the three surnames to claim compensation and cause trouble, nor did they use weapons or gather a crowd to threaten Beihai Trading Company and others.
After hearing Baman Gong's report, Cao Peng's nose almost became angry!
During the more than a year since he came to Ninggu Pagoda, he devoted most of his work energy to censusing the population, measuring land, liberating slaves, and handling civil disputes. Criminal cases were all handled by the Public Security Police Department. However, due to the period of military control, the most criminal cases were commercial disputes and fights between border residents. This was the first time that Beihai Town's own people bullied border residents.
"It seems that the coffin needs to be opened for autopsy. Wasn't the deceased injured?"
Facing Cao Peng's question, Baman Gong looked embarrassed and said: "I have said this too, but the family members disagree. The Hezhe people do not have this rule, so it is difficult to handle."
Cao Peng read Baman Gong's investigation record and compared it with Nian Wang's inquiry record from the previous security alarm. He immediately couldn't laugh or cry. He has concluded in his heart that Nian Wang is a speculator. What this guy said before is wrong and has bad intentions.
The names of the victims and their family members were all wrong. Although Una was kicked by Li Da, his body bones were not broken. Qiji Township did not send anyone to accompany Zhou Tai to Sanxing City to collect the armor and pythons. satin and other items as compensation; the villagers did not use weapons to cause trouble, and the Public Security Police Department of Sanxing City did not collude.
Now that the matter is clear, don't wait for the people from the General Administration. Let's arrest people quickly.
That night, Li Da and his four employees from Beihai Trading Company were arrested by people from the Sanxing City Public Security Police Station, and were interrogated the next day. Although Li Da was a little scared because he had forced someone to death, he did not take it seriously when faced with the interrogation by the security police.
"Brother, we are all Han people, our own people. If a few Manchu scoundrels die, is this a big deal?"
Faced with Li Da's shamelessness, the security police officer in charge of the interrogation said angrily: "Li Da! The victim Una is only fifteen years old, you are lucky to kill him!"
"What's wrong with being fifteen? In my hometown village in the south, a fifteen-year-old is just like a child."
In short, when faced with the interrogation, Li Da tried his best to quibble and did not admit that he had hit the victim. He only said that when the victim saw him by the river, he made teasing words and that's when he got the idea. As for hanging himself, it had nothing to do with him; as for the compensation afterwards, it was also because he pitied Una's widowed mother.
At the same time, after interrogation of Zhou Tai, Qian Sen, and Zhang Qi, it was confirmed that it was true that the three knew and failed to report, but they did not come forward to compensate Li Da. This was completely a false accusation made by Nian Wang.
When Cao Peng learned about the situation, he was furious at Li Da's shamelessness. He was so angry that he ran directly to the telecommunications room and shouted to the security policeman named Sanshi on the other end of the intercom: "Give me an overnight interrogation. No!" He's sleeping! I don't believe he doesn't do anything!"
One day later, after a round of interrogation like a round of battle, Li Da, who was dizzy from being tortured, finally confessed that he had indeed used a piece of cloth to seduce Una, but when he failed, he became angry and turned to compulsion to do evil.
