Chapter 62: The Black Pot, Turning Around, and Friendship...
As we walked along the way, the closer we were, the more people gathered, the more noisy the crowds gathered. What was discussed was that the man from the house and the house recognized a murderer. The murderer was not a Tang people, but a Hu people from that tribe.
In addition, the most talked about is the fastest attack on the corps of the State Department. In just a few hours, so many murderers were arrested and none of them missed the net. This really doesn't look like the style of the State Department's conduct.
Since it is a gossip, some old Xiangzhou like to talk about the things that are rotten by Chen Guzi. Recently, from the early years of Kaiyuan, farther and farther, they talk about the Ruizong, Zhongzong, and even people have revealed the things that the Shenlong Queen is in the world.
All of them are all major cases that have occurred in Xiangzhou in the past few decades. The comparison is that the speed of solving the case and the number of murderers is the best. The impact of this case is the best, and the speed of murderers is also the best.
It would be fine if many things were not compared, but it would inevitably cause many feelings. Therefore, some people slapped their mouths with few teeth and sighed that Xiangzhou Prefecture is really different from the past. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just look at how long it has been heard of fighting on the streets of Xiangzhou? And those constables, these days, they are checking the murderers from house to house every day. When it comes to their diligence, they have never seen them for many years.
As soon as this statement was made, many people responded. These people in the market didn’t know what the Xiangzhou ban on military orders was, but there were fewer fighting on the streets and more peace. This was a real feeling every day.
As a result, the gossip and discussion in the market naturally extended forward. This time, such a major case was solved so quickly, and many changes in the city started after Fang Bie took charge of state affairs. No wonder he was a Jinshi who was named on the list of Jinshi. He was indeed capable and courageous. He could not appoint such a young constable as deputy head? Today, the one who caught this group of big thieves was the deputy head Ye!
What is a wise eye to recognize people? This is a living example! If you don’t take charge of state affairs, at least our prefecture city will be more peaceful. Such an official should be allowed to take the official seal in the prefecture.
These comments drifted into Fang Zhushan and the gentry's ears. This was the real people's customs and people's expectations. Fang Zhushan's face became more calm, but the gentry and celebrities couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
There were many people gathering on the street centered on Wangjiang Tower, but compared with the panic all over the city last night, the popularity of the people was extremely high at this time, and the praise for the state yamen was also extremely high.
When Fang Zhushan and others passed through the crowd and arrived in front of Wangjiang Tower, the center point where the crowd gathered, they saw a row of prison vans neatly arranged on the street. There were four or five squads of constables on all sides of the prison vans to warn and maintain order. From time to time, the victims came in to identify the murderers. Next to them were the swordsman of the old man Yu Xingming, who was a knife and pen in the state yamen, recorded these signs on the spot. The whole scene was both open and transparent, showing the openness and order of the state yamen.
Seeing this, Fang Zhushan became more and more satisfied.
It seems that the bad thing turned into good things last night was certain.
But I didn't see the biggest hero Ye Yian at this scene.
The constable who maintained order saw the arrival of the other party and the celebrities in the city, rushed into the Wangjiang Tower, which was closely guarded by his friend. After a while, Ye Yian rushed out in a row. His appearance was amazing. The noise around him suddenly rose like a storm, and there were even many cheers.
When he was more than ten steps away from Fang Zhushan, Ye Yian bowed and said loudly: "According to the opportunity given by the Lord in person, the last officer will not be humiliated and will capture the thieves in one net. Please verify the correctness."
Because he used some elixir power, although there was a noise around him, Ye Yian's words were clearly seen in the noise. Many people were interested in it - was Fang Bie the idea of capturing the murderer this time?
The gentry witnessed Fang Zhushan's suffocation with their own eyes. Although he was disdainful when he heard this, his face was always interesting. He just wanted to curse Ye Yian in his heart, and he was too good at acting and carrying a sedan chair for Fang Zhushan. At this moment, under such a trend, how much people's expectations will be raised by this sentence alone? How much reputation will it be?
Fang Zhushan changed his indifferent face and smiled to face Ye Yian. He was even a veteran in acting. At this moment, the two of them showed a good image of the virtuous and capable states on this crowded street. This is a positive publicity that the state has not seen for many years.
Fang Zhushan then looked at the demon disciples and comforted the constables, and then went downstairs to the stairs at the host of Wangjiang Tower to take a break in tea.
After entering Wangjiang Tower, Ye Yian had the opportunity to talk to Fang Zhushan alone.
In the Accord, after seeing the owner of Wangjiang Tower resign, Ye Yian immediately apologized for not being able to find someone last night. As soon as he said that he was blocked by Fang Zhushan, "You can capture these murderers so quickly. You must have pursued their whereabouts last night. I am not stupid. What crime did you ask for?"
After saying that, Fang Zhushan, who had always been the most important official, actually got up and patted Ye Yian on the shoulder, "You did a good job in this matter, very good!"
After saying that, Fang Zhushan slowly walked to the window and looked at the crowd rushing below, "It's so dangerous!"
Seeing that Ye Yian was not sure about his intention, Fang Zhushan picked up the crowd below with his eyes, "I received an urgent report from the same year's fast horse yesterday. Recently, the Censor in charge of Shandong East Road has entered our Xiangzhou territory. Perhaps this person is in the crowd below at this moment."
Ye Yian immediately understood that the imperial court was responsible for impeaching all officials. The Censorate was divided into three parts: Hall, Taiwan, and Censorate. The Censor was the Censorate. Each person was responsible for one or several, and was responsible for impeaching local officials.
After arriving at the local area, these people did not know about the local government office, but instead made secret investigations in public and had the right to make straight comments, which made local officials feel the most headache and fear.
With Fang Zhushan's embarrassing identity now, this sentence "very dangerous" is indeed a very dangerous situation.
After sighing, Fang Zhushan asked about the intentions and purpose of these murderers chaotic city last night. This is also very important. If they were in trouble because they were treated unfairly by local governments, it would be embarrassing and they needed to cover it up as soon as possible.
In short, at this extremely sensitive moment, all hidden dangers must be strangled in advance.
"Sir, these twelve murderers are all evil magicians. This time, we are still taking the blame for Guangyuanguan." Ye Yian told the whole story in detail. After hearing this, Fang Zhushan slapped his palm on the window frame with anger.
Since he forced the king to retreat and gained the power of the state yamen, the city has been uneasy. The reasons are related to evil magicians, and this should have been the matter of Guangyuanguan. Last night, because Guangyuanguan set up the state treacherous city and caused such chaos, these thieves and Taoists had no explanation and report. He was frightened for a long time and was ridiculed by the gentry and celebrities. After several works, they could not stand their tempers even if they were a clay man. What's more, Zhushan was also easy to bully?
Although Fang Zhushan didn't say what he would do, he just looked at his face at the moment. This time, the Xiangzhou Prefecture Yamen must have completely broken up with Guang Yuanguan.
Thinking of this, Ye Yian did not forget to remind him, "Some Taoists in Guangyuan Temple have quite a lot of supernatural powers. If the adults act too aggressively, they may..."
"They dare!" Fang Zhushan smiled coldly, "This is the world of the Tang Dynasty, not the Taoist sect. It is the court who controls the world for the Holy Emperor. It is not the turn of the Taoist sect, and they are not the ones who are the Taoists who use evil methods to deal with my official position. He even dares to give him ten courage to Xugu."
Ye Yian didn't understand where Fang Zhushan's strong self-confidence came from, but Fang Zhushan himself didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask. He took the opportunity to talk about another thing, "But after this incident, this constable is probably not going to be able to do it."
"What does this mean?"
Ye Yian said that Qingfeng said that practitioners cannot enter government offices at all levels to eat the salary of the court.
"Are you really the one who practices?"
Previously, Fang Zhushan always thought that Ye Yian was like his son, a fat man, and wanted to practice but had no immortal fate. At this moment, seeing Ye Yian nodding and confessing his identity, his face suddenly became clear, "This is a tricky thing."
"If I hadn't been the identity of this practitioner, I would not have invited reinforcements and could not have captured these murderers. Sir, I'm sorry to say bluntly that since those practitioners are in our Xiangzhou, they should be under the jurisdiction of our state yamen. If the state yamen does not have effective personnel and means to control these supernatural people, the facts of last night will not be repeated. How many times will the state yamen take the blame for Guang Yuanguan?"
After Ye Yian finished speaking, Fang Zhushan nodded but did not make a clear statement. Obviously, he knew clearly that there was such a conventional rule. After pondering for a long time, he slowly spoke: "Although this matter is difficult, there may not be any room for improvement. Let me find a way. You can do your job well with peace of mind."
The meaning of Fang Zhushan's words is clearly that he does not want to be a destroyer of rules, but he also says that he can turn things around.
Can you make a mistake without breaking the rules in this matter? How to make a mistake? Fang Zhushan obviously had no intention of detailing it, so Ye Yian knew it tactfully, but judging from his expression and words, even if this matter could make a mistake, it was obviously difficult to deal with.
At least at the moment, Ye Yian was really unwilling to lose his identity. Now he is increasingly discovering that he is leaning against the state office that represents the emperor and the court in Xiangzhou. Not only can he mobilize many resources for me to use, but he can also be more calm when facing the sects in Guangyuan Temple and the scattered cultivators, making the other party more afraid, and may find opportunities from it. It is a pity to lose it.
But if you really can't hold on, it's nothing. Turning light into darkness will not bring about other atmosphere.
Ye Yian never struggles with things that he cannot control, and only plans for the future. Let’s look at Fang Zhushan’s methods.
After saying that, Fang Zhushan was not too late at Wangjiang Tower, and stood up and left to arrange for the prefectural corps to accept the murderers. Even if the case was officially handed over from Ye Yian, he would not need to intervene in the final matter of the subsequent questioning, deciding the case, writing official documents to the Ministry of Justice, etc. He believed that with Fang Zhushan's methods and with his personal attention, this case could naturally be handled beautifully and without any leakage.
Before Fang Zhushan left, Ye Yian accompanied him to meet with the practitioners of the Three Sects. This was a warm meeting. The practitioners of the Three Sects were very proud, and Ye Yian was very proud. More importantly, the practitioners of the Three Sects witnessed the unreserved trust and importance of Ye Yian by the first person in the state yamen, which also made the best footnote and supplement to the strength that Ye Yian had shown repeatedly before.
The account of this banquet was naturally held by the state yamen. These more than 50 practitioners were not very interested in those dishes, but they had a special liking for Xiangyang Drunk. This banquet was a grand event that had not been seen in the Xiangzhou scattered cultivators for many years.
During the banquet, Ye Yian pulled Chen Fangzhuo aside and asked about the Ba Wang Sect.
After hearing that they hadn't started to take action, Ye Yian pointed out softly, "Brother Chen, this big drama in Xiangzhou is about to end, Guangyuan Guan is about to pull out his hand."
"So fast? Is this news accurate?"
"When will I give you the fake news?"
Chen Fangzhuo laughed and hugged Ye Yian's arm with a little drunkenness, "This news from Brother Ye is really important. I won't say much about your gratitude to avoid being reborn. There is another top-grade good elixir for the worship of my valley. I will naturally not forget Brother Ye at that time."
Ye Yian's cultivation level has just broken through to the spiritual pill stage, and the possibility of another big breakthrough in the short term is very small. In addition, his specificity of "The Secret Method of Pupal Butterfly", he really dare not take medicine casually, otherwise he would not be able to bear the imbalance that last time was like. Hearing this, Ye Yian smiled, "I agree with Brother Chen as a close friend. Don't mention elixirs or something. What's the point of doing trade between you and me? As long as I encounter difficulties in the future, Brother Chen can help you, it will be enough."
The importance of elixirs, especially top-grade elixirs, to non-Dinghuo cultivators, is really not too much to emphasize.
Chen Fangzhuo knew that Ye Yian was a disciple of Fenggeshan, and he knew that Fenggeshan had not yet truly recovered his vitality and there was no Dinghuo cultivator to vote. Under this situation, he actually refused the top-grade elixir he had promised without hesitation. Although Chen Fangzhuo was suspicious by nature, he could no longer doubt what Ye Yian said to be willing to communicate with him as a confidant.
Perhaps because of drinking, Chen Fangzhuo's extremely rare true feelings were revealed. After this incident, the relationship between the two has taken a solid step from the initial coercion to the mutual use of each other. Although they are still far from being close to their confidant, they have some friendship.
After sending away the disciples of the three sects and handing over the twelve demon disciples to the officials of the Zheng Cao who came to accept them, Ye Yian, who returned to the state yamen, was not idle. He found Liu Bantou and asked him to gather the eighth squad under his jurisdiction.
Now the Eagle-faced man has been captured by Yan Ruyi alive. The demon disciples who came to Xiangzhou with them died, and the remaining twelve people have been caught in one go. The recent chaos in Xiangzhou City has come to an end. At this time, the eight classes of tolerances were put together. Ye Yian's idea was to take a search for the whole city and arrest all those who found the problems in the strict inspection a few days ago.
The autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves. Since he is now the deputy head of Jing'an, the city of Zhoucheng, it is time to return peace to the people of Zhoucheng.
While the constables were gathering, the fat man pouted and swayed into Ye Yian's office.
