On October 19, the third year of Tianqi, the son of Guiduan King Zhu Changying was born in Guibeiping. Everyone in the city knew that Zhu Changying was very happy and loved him very much, so he named him Zhu Youlang;
However, Zhang Wenda went bankrupt because Wei Zhongxian and his party accused him of embezzlement and ordered him to recover 100,000 yuan.
Qiao Yunsheng was forced to resign due to illness and planned to return to his native Mengjin. Sun Chengzong was worried that his rights would be restricted and wrote a letter saying that the governor and governor could not be established at the same time. He requested Ming Xizong to remove the governor and Zhu Youxiao agreed.
Zhao Nanxing replaced Zhang Wenda as the Minister of Civil Affairs. Now the Donglin Party is powerful, with Gao Panlong, Yang Lian, and Zuo Guangdou in charge of the law;
Li Tengfang and Chen Yuting assisted in the election; Wei Dazhong and Yuan Huazhong were in charge of science and technology; Zheng Sanjun, Li Banghua, Sun Juxiang, Rao Shen, Wang Zhicai and others were all placed in the ministry to govern.
Tang Jianqiu stood alone on the top of the mountain overlooking all living beings in the world. Watching the wild cranes soaring and the wild geese flying south, he felt a little sad, probably because he still had a little regret in his heart.
Because just now he learned about Qiao Yunsheng's dismissal from office.
He has thought about using his own abilities to save others, but not everything is something he can handle as a pacifier.
"No one in the world drowns in water, and no one who attacks a difficult task can win because it is impossible to do it easily. The soft overcomes the hard, and the weak overcomes the strong. No one in the world knows this, and if no one can do it, there is nothing they can do."
After saying this, Tang Jianqiu shook his head and could only lament the harshness of the world.
Today's world is a time of chaos, intrigues, and chaos.
The Donglin Party Conflict broke out in the fourth year of Tianqi, and his life hit rock bottom in that year.
And he is determined not to let the tragedy of his previous life happen again!
"Master Tang, you are indeed here!"
Ah Fei came to report in a hurry, as if he had something important to do, and didn't even have time to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"But is there something important?"
Tang Jianqiu turned to face A Fei. There were many trivial matters in the court today which made him a little upset, so he came out to relax.
Ah Fei bowed and said, "Master Commander, please come over."
"okay, I get it."
After that, Tang Jianqiu turned around and left, immediately heading to Beizhen Fusi to look for Tian Ergeng, the commander of the Jinyi Guards.
Regardless of the fact that the commander of Jinyiwei is in the third rank, while the Zhenfu envoy is in the fourth rank, in a sense, whoever is in charge of Beizhenfusi is the real boss in Jinyiwei.
It seems that the status of the North and South Town Fusi is equal, but the real powerful figure is actually the boss of the North Town Fusi. This shows how terrifying Tang Jianqiu's actual power is!
But it is precisely because of this that many people are jealous and targeted.
"Lord Commander."
When Tang Jianqiu saw the visitor, he saluted him. Tian Ergen smiled and passed him by, quickly waving his hand, "Master Tang, no courtesy."
"Thank you very much, Commander. May I ask why you are looking for the official office?"
Even though Tang Jianqiu had a personal grudge with Tian Ergen in his previous life, he was still his superior anyway. He had no grudge against him at present, so he still had to obey his orders.
Tian Ergen didn't like to show off, so he revealed the purpose of calling Tang Jianqiu here:
"Tang Jianqiu, after much thought, this commander has decided that it is most appropriate to leave this task to you. I wonder if you are willing?"
Tang Jianqiu bowed and tried his best to suppress the unhappiness in his heart: "Commander, please tell me, I will do my best."
Tian Ergeng said: "According to reports from local people, someone has opened a casino in Changping County, Beiping. The boss behind the scenes is quite capable. You must be careful when you go there. Arrest the person involved."
Tang Jianqiu couldn't help but exclaimed after hearing this. He knew how sinful it was to participate in gambling, but there were still people who enjoyed it.
"What! Open a casino? Ming Taizu clearly stipulated that no one should participate in gambling, even today,
Neither ordinary people nor local officials are allowed to participate for any reason, but this guy is so trusting! "
Tang Jianqiu was filled with resentment. Even if he had participated in this incident in his previous life, his blood would swell even if he heard about it again. He wished he could tear that guy into pieces right now!
Tian Ergeng wanted this kind of effect. He knew that Tang Jianqiu was a man of temperament, so he said like this:
"Jianqiu, I also know very well what you are like. You have always hated evil as much as hatred. It is said that the person with the most powerful martial arts in Beizhen Fusi belongs to you. I can rest assured when I send you to do things."
After saying that, Tian Ergen patted Tang Jianqiu's right shoulder. Tang Jianqiu paused and then agreed.
"I will definitely do my best to complete it."
Tian Ergen was very satisfied with such an answer, "Very good, then I'll trouble Mr. Tang about this."
He had no doubts about Tang Jianqiu's abilities, and it didn't matter as long as he wouldn't interfere with his own interests.
"The commander has made you polite."
Tang Jianqiu bowed, then turned and left.
It seems that he has to deal with this matter!
Tang Jianqiu's eyes also changed at this moment.
He was no stranger to that person at all. It was rumored in the world that that guy had no conscience, was a seller seeking glory, was despicable and shameless, and was the same as that corrupt official!
However, there were many people involved in the casino incident, and it would be difficult for him alone to deal with it.
Therefore, he decided to call the Royal Guards to handle the case together!
…
In order to prevent others from discovering their identities and alerting others, Jin Yiwei and his party disguised themselves.
They wore black cloaks or coir raincoats to cover their eyes and ears, and some even wore commoners, and some even dressed up like people from the world.
They are well aware of the seriousness of the mission sent by Tian Ergeng and must handle it carefully!
However, the Ming Code stipulates that officials who participate in gambling will be punished by one level, and first-time offenders who set up gambling in the form of entertainment will be punished with a cane.
Habitual gamblers will be punished with serious crimes, and officials who participate in gambling will have their hands chopped off. Not only will they lose their property, but their adult descendants will also be punished with hard labor or sent to the army!
Not long after, the Jin Yiwei team arrived at the casino, and as soon as they entered, they saw a bustling crowd.
There are few winners and many losers. If you gamble for a long time, you will definitely lose. If you lose less, your skin will not be hurt. Just have fun;
Those who lose more often end up with nothing and a lot of debt. What's worse, they have mortgaged their real estate title and lost everything.
The old guest officials also stopped and waited. Most of their money was gradually empty, and the new guest officials had no interest.
The shopkeeper racked his brains and tried his best to arrange some good snacks and tea. He often sent his waiters to lean against the door and shout a few times to coax as many as he could to get in.
There are many men and women sitting in the square, and there are many people playing pot and six games.
To say that this place is lively and lively, there are many people participating in gambling. There are cricket fighting, dice fighting, cricket fighting, some gambling in the name of Cuju, and even some playing horse crane.
After browsing all kinds of people, A Fei only felt a little headache.
It wasn't because of anything else. He was upset because of the random sound of the dice.
He really couldn't understand, so he couldn't help but let out a long hiss, and then got rid of the doubts in his heart: "Sir, why do you think some people still gamble even though they know the risks of gambling?"
Tang Jianqiu had never experienced it even once, but he still understood human nature.
"Gambling takes advantage of people's hearts. Regular customers think this is a rare advantage, so they don't hesitate to borrow money to try it again.
On the one hand, there is a chance to make money, and on the other hand, the good intentions of the shopkeeper are not wasted, and the trap gets deeper and deeper, unable to extricate itself, and ultimately destroyed. "
Ah Fei suddenly realized, "So that's why the court boycotts gambling."
"Since you are an official, you should lead by example."
Looking at the gambler who was immersed in it, Tang Jianqiu had an indescribable feeling.
After that, Tang Jianqiu waved for them to disperse so they could go their separate ways, so as not to lose the big for the small.
They didn't say much, but just found a place to sit down, while Tang Jianqiu scanned the local suspicious crowd.
They had already obtained the portrait given by Tian Ergen, so they naturally knew the thief's appearance, but they couldn't show the arrest portrait in public, so they could only compare it carefully.
Tang Jianqiu looked around carefully, and then turned his attention to the place full of people.
Tang Jianqiu did not hesitate and walked straight forward.
After breaking through the siege of the crowd, I discovered that the people inside were playing dice. They were still in the mood and did not notice that the officers and soldiers had sneaked in secretly.
To say that this dice is not interesting, the people here are not attracted because of the high bets, the most important thing is because of the people.
I saw a young man with his head downcast. Judging from his appearance, he knew he had lost a lot. He almost knelt down to beg for mercy and begged the other party for a favor.
The thin young man's eyes were red, as if he had suffered a huge blow, and he looked helplessly at Li Si who opened the casino.
"This good man, can you bet again? I promise to pay you back with interest on the next one!"
But Li Si showed disdain. He was just holding a toothpick in his mouth, and his words were very arrogant:
"How dare you come here without money? Do you know the rules here?"
"I know, I know, but I'm a good man. Please give me another chance. I can't let my wife..."
Before the young man could finish speaking, Li Si kicked him on the spot!
The young man fell to the ground on the spot after being kicked by Li Si, and then let out a wail.
Li Si thought that this was not enough, so he stepped on the young man's chest, showing off his condescending side.
He leaned down, put on a winner's smile, and said proudly:
"Your pretty little lady is already mine! Why are you so unlucky that you can't even protect the woman you love? What's the use of you? You're a waste!"
Li Si kicked him again, and the young man's intestines were already green with regret. Compared with the physical pain, these were nothing. What he felt most sorry for was his wife and children at home.
As the saying goes, gambling is more harmful than tigers. Tigers sometimes injure you randomly, but gambling always results in losing all your life.
His wife was scattered, his family was ruined, and he had to wear a rope around his neck.
Tang Jianqiu couldn't stand it any longer, so he skipped the crowd and came to the center of the open space.
He suppressed the anger in his body as much as possible, pretended to be polite, and spoke calmly;
"Brother, this is my first time visiting this place. I don't know the rules yet. I wonder if I can show my respect to you?"
Hearing this, Li Si followed Tang Jianqiu's voice and looked over, only to find a man wearing a bamboo hat.
Li Si glanced at it, looked up and down, and then said: "Oh? It turns out that he is a new customer. I welcome you very much. You don't need to pay attention to this person.
As the saying goes, you are willing to accept defeat. Since this guy has lost, he has to act according to the rules. Are you right? "
Tang Jianqiu naturally knew what the other party meant, but he had to pretend to be confused and nodded sadly.
However, just now Tang Jianqiu had an idea, so he shook off all his thoughts: "Since we are here, why not make a big bet?"
"Oh?" Li Si felt happy upon hearing this, and his mood became much more relaxed.
"What are you talking about betting on?"
The boys nearby couldn't help but rub their hands when they saw this, feeling happy about it.
However, what Tang Jianqiu said next made the whole audience excited.
"How about betting on your two hands?"
The whole audience was in shock, and the blood was coagulated. It was so quiet that one could hear each other's breathing clearly.
Li Si suddenly became angry, pointed at Tang Jianqiu's nose and yelled:
"Bold! Do you know where this place is? Dare to make trouble here!"
