The water transport yamen is divided into two systems, Pai an Si and gang Yun Si. The highest ranking official is the transit envoy. It manages nearly a thousand people in and out of the water transport Yamen.
"Water transport is the most valuable of all the Yamen in the imperial court. In the 20th year of Yuanjing, the imperial court once promoted the sale of officials, all of which were related to water transportation. " As governor Zhang led the way, he said in a deep voice:
"in the 22nd year of Yuanjing, the policy of selling official titles was banned by Duke Wei and Wang Shoufu. However, only two years later, the number of moths who came in just to make up for the number was appalling. To this day, there are still a group of people who live on a diet and steal high positions. "
Xu Qi'an didn't care much about governor Zhang's indignation, but extracted some interesting points from his words.
It needs Wei Yuan and Wang Shoufu to join hands to suppress it. Who is the man who betrays his official position?
There is no doubt that it was Emperor Yuan Jing.
There are a lot of emperors selling official titles in history books. Yuanjing emperor is not an exception. These emperors all have one thing in common: spending money is like running water.
Moreover, the evaluation of such emperors in history books is not very good, at least they have a critical attitude towards this kind of behavior.
When the Yuzhou water transport yamen arrived, the Yamen officers saw a group of people coming. They were headed by the officials in Fei robes and the watchmen with gold gongs embroidered on their chests.
Without any inquiry, he rushed into the Yamen to report.
After a few minutes, Yuzhou water transport yamen's transfer envoy, is four grade senior members, in a hurry to go out in person to meet.
This transport envoy is over fifty years old, with white beard, ordinary appearance and a mole on his eyebrow, which makes his ordinary appearance more special.
"My official, Zhang Xingying, went to Yunzhou to investigate the case. This is a cabinet document." Governor Zhang took out a thin book and handed it to him.
"It turned out to be the governor. If you are disrespectful, please come inside." After reading the document, the transit agent respectfully handed it back, then leaned over and made a gesture of "please".
When the party entered the yamen, the transit envoy led governor Zhang to the Yamen hall. After taking a seat to see tea, the transit envoy said with a smile:
"governor, you are very tired, but you plan to rest in Yuzhou for a few days?"
He quietly observed the governor from the capital, only felt that the other party was a boring person who did not smile and did not show a smiling face until now.
How proud of you?
The transit envoy didn't know the seriousness of the matter. Governor Zhang waved his hand: "whether I stay here or not depends on the progress of the case."
"How do you say that?" He said in dismay.
Governor Zhang looked out of the hall and said in a loud voice, "bring it up!"
Along with the bearded man Fang He, 62 members of the yellow flag gang were brought up. He was slightly or seriously injured and looked depressed.
Seeing these people, he stood up in surprise and bewilderment, pointed to them and looked at governor Zhang: "what's the matter with these people? Why are they wearing the official clothes of our water transport yamen?"
"That's why I visited you."
now, Zhang make complaints about the matter, which has been transported by detailed instructions. The latter has been listless and listless, and has fallen back to the seat. Mumbling, "what can this do?" what is the best? "
, tut, the martial arts are too bad. Compared with the officials I have worked in Beijing, the transhipment is almost a bronze... Xu Qian is thinking about it. Observe the expression of the transport, subtle hands.
Zhang Xun Fu said in a deep voice: "transit envoy, I ask you, are you aware of this case?"
The transit agent shook his head and tried to explain: "I don't know, governor..."
without reply, governor Zhang turned to look at the white warlocks in the crowd. Several white warlocks nodded slightly, indicating that they were not lying.
After pondering for a while, Zhang Xunfu said, "is the gangyun envoy in the Yamen?"
Then he turned his attention to the culprit. He was angry that a 25-year-old boy came out under his command and said in a deep voice:
"gangyun envoy Yan Kai is not in the Yamen today, so I will take the governor to arrest him immediately."
...
outside Yan Kai's mansion, Zhang Xunfu waved his hand to let hubenwei disperse and surround Yan's mansion.
Yang Muhua, the transport envoy of the water transport yamen, also brought 20 catchers.
When the Huben guards dispersed, Jiang Luzhong directly led people to break into the house and beat down all the servants and guards.
Hubenwei, the catcher of the water transport yamen, and the watchman swept the whole Yanfu. They were as quick as thunder, and didn't give each other a chance to react.
"My Lord, I'm in the study."
The catcher of the water transport yamen was the first to find Yan Kai. When Xu Qi'an and his colleagues arrived at the study, he was a little late. He saw the blood splashed all over the ground, thick and fast.
Gangyun made Yan Kai lie on the big chair powerlessly. His head was askew. There was a deep wound on his neck. There was a dagger on the ground on his right hand side.
This result was obviously beyond the expectation of Yang and Governor Zhang. In amazement, he filled his chest with anger.
However, the anger of the two people is not the same. The anger of the transporter is closer to the rage of incompetence. As soon as the transporter dies, all his eyes are focused on himself. He must be the first suspect.Governor Zhang is a kind of anger that cooked duck flies away.
There are too many people, it is easy to damage the scene... And there is no guarantee that there is no murderer on the scene, it is likely to damage the key clues... Xu Qi'an is the most calm. When his mind turns, he makes a quick decision:
"everyone exits the study and waits outside."
After hearing this, governor Zhang's spirit was aroused, and he swept all the people and said in a deep voice, "everyone go outside and wait, and get out of the study."
Soon, only Jiang Luzhong, Xu Qian and two adults were left in the study.
"Governor, Yan Kai must have committed suicide. This case has nothing to do with my official." Yang Zhuanyun makes a pile of explanations, eager to get rid of the relationship.
Governor Zhang ignored him at all, looked at Xu Qi'an and said, "Xu Ning banquet, have a good look."
Yang can't help but take a look at Xu Qi'an, and soon he doesn't pay attention to it. He pulls governor Zhang to continue to explain. His nagging complaints show his innocence.
"The blood clots. It's not long since we died, but before we enter the mansion." Jiang Lu, the middle way.
"We almost died when we entered the water transport Yamen." Xu Qi'an nodded.
He simply checked Yan Kai's body. The wound was so obvious that there was no need for autopsy. He was killed by cutting off the carotid artery.
After seeing the corpse, Xu Qi'an checked every corner of the study as usual, looking for possible clues.
The whole process is only five minutes, Xu Qi'an sighed: "governor, he was killed, not committed suicide."
Zhang Xun stroked his chin and said, "how can I see it?"
The chattering of the transshipment stopped the excuse and turned to look.
"If the carotid artery is cut off, people will struggle because of lack of oxygen... Because of the instinct to survive. They won't sit like this. Of course, it is not enough to judge that he was killed. " Xu Qi'an said: "Yan Kai is left-handed."
How do you know
"There is a thick cocoon on one side of the middle finger of his left hand, which is left by holding a pen all the year round. The cocoon of a normal person is in the middle finger of his right hand, so I judge him to be left-handed.
"If you look at the wound on your neck, it's deep on the left and shallow on the right. It's the scar left by holding a knife on your right hand."
God... Transport shocked looking at Xu Qi'an, eyes no longer slighted. In less than half a column of incense time, we can find clues and speculate the real cause of death.
In the eyes of transit agents who are not good at solving cases, this is a stunning display of their ability.
It's the first time that governor Zhang witnessed Xu Qi'an's ability to solve a case, although he had heard about it. No matter how the story of this little Gong is spread in the officialdom of the capital, it's two different things to hear and see.
Yan Kai's cause of death is cutting his throat, which is not as flashy as killing in a wizard's dream. However, it is precisely because of this simple and crude method that anyone can do, it is more and more difficult to lock the murderer... Without monitoring, it is too hard to solve the case.
"The doors and windows have not been pried or damaged. The murderer and the dead obviously know each other. Interrogate the servants in the mansion to see if anyone has just visited or heard Yan Kai's cry for help. In addition, When interrogating all the people in the water transport yamen, including the transport emissary, they should remember to search their bodies, so as to avoid having magic tools to cover up their breath and hinder the observation of lookout Qi. " Xu Qian gives suggestions.
Zhang Xunfu said, "transit envoy, please cooperate with us."
For more than an hour after that, the three warlocks of Si Tianjian kept observing the officials and officials of the water transport Yamen.
With the death of gang Yun's envoy Yan Kai, the clue to the case of "self theft" is broken.
Accompanied by Jiang Luzhong, governor Zhang went to Yuzhou's probation department. This yamen is in charge of the prison, which is exactly the Yamen in charge of this matter. At the same time, it was also the supervisory organ of the imperial court, which was subordinate to the duchayuan.
Governor Zhang is the imperial censor of the capital inspection court, and is the immediate superior of the inspection department.
In the afterglow of dusk, Xu Qi'an sat on the ridge of the water transport yamen, bathed in Jinxia, and resumed the case in his mind.
When one gang Yun envoy dies, the clue to the whole case is broken. Oh, it's also a clue that the people behind the scenes didn't control the whole water transport Yamen.
Thus, it can be seen that this is not a simple corruption case... The Minister of the Ministry of industry has collapsed, and the water transport yamen of Yuzhou still continues to repeat the operation of smuggling iron ore to Yunzhou... Which means that there are still people behind the scenes. This person's power is not big, and he can only control one gang Yunshi. No, it may not be that his power is not big, maybe he is acting for the sake of concealment.
If I didn't run into it like shit, maybe the smuggling of iron ore will continue.
Since there is smuggling of iron ore, will there be smuggling of official salt and saltpeter? It's time for the imperial court to investigate the water transportation yamen of each state.
"I'm afraid this trip to Yunzhou is more dangerous than I imagined." Xu Qi'an thought anxiously, and suddenly heard that someone was calling him.
"Ningyan, let's go. Go to Jiaofang and take charge of Yile." Song Tingfeng stood in the courtyard and waved to him."No, I'm thinking about business." Xu Qi'an has no good airway.
"Go ahead. I heard that the women of Jiaofang department in Yuzhou know how to serve people." Song Tingfeng is good at persuasion.
"I always know Jiaofang department. I'm afraid I can't be promoted all my life." Xu Qi'an's response that he hates iron but not steel.
...
Yuzhou, Jiaofang department.
In the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, Xu Qi'an held up his wine cup and said with a laugh, "come on, drink and drink. After six days on the water, Laozi's birds have cobwebs."
The watchmen raised their glasses together, and each of them was a pretty girl. They pushed the cup to change the cup and talked and laughed.
As expected, Xu Ningyan came with him. Song Tingfeng was not surprised by this. It should be said that they were all expected.
When he was in the capital, Xu Qian never took the initiative to go to the Jiaofang department. It was song Tingfeng who suggested it. Then he and Zhu Guangxiao went with him.
Sometimes when Xu Ningyan was practicing, he swore: "Song Tingfeng, if you have a little conscience, don't disturb Laozi's practice.".
After scolding, pat your ass and follow.
Yuzhou's jiaofangsi is different from the capital. It does not cover such a large area, but it is built near the river, with six courtyards and two high-rise buildings. It's better to have elegant scenery.
The rippling water distorts the reflection of the red lantern, and the sound of the wind music of silk and bamboo floats in the courtyard and on the sparkling river.
As Xu Qi'an and others, they would not go to the building to drink with the mixed customers. Led by the officials of the water transport yamen, they came to the courtyard of a Huakui named Hongxiu to play tea.
Huakui, who is called Hongxiu, seems to be reluctant. After drinking in the yard for half an hour, she hasn't come out yet.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

It's not long since we died, but before we enter the mansion." Jiang Lu, the middle way. "We almost died when we entered the water transport Yamen." Xu Qi'an nodded. He simply checked Yan Kai's body. The wound was so obvious that there was no need for autopsy. He was killed by cutting off the carotid artery. After seeing the corpse, Xu Qi'an checked every corner of the study as usual, looking for possible clues. The whole process is only five minutes, Xu Qi'an sighed: "governor, he was killed, not committed suicide." Zhang Xun stroked his chin and said, "how can I see it?" The chattering of the transshipment stopped the excuse and turned to look. "If the carotid artery is cut off, people will struggle because of lack of oxygen... Because of the instinct to survive. They won't sit like this. Of course, it is not enough to judge that he was killed. " Xu Qi'an said: "Yan Kai is left-handed." How do you know "There is a thick cocoon on one side of the middle finger of his left hand, which is left by holding a pen all the year round. The cocoon of a normal person is in the middle finger of his right hand, so I judge him to be left-handed. "If you look at the wound on your neck, it's deep on the left and shallow on the right. It's the scar left by holding a knife on your right hand." God... Transport shocked looking at Xu Qi'an, eyes no longer slighted. In less than half a column of incense time, we can find clues and speculate the real cause of death. In the eyes of transit agents who are not good at solving cases, this is a stunning display of their ability. It's the first time that governor Zhang witnessed Xu Qi'an's ability to solve a case, although he had heard about it. No matter how the story of this little Gong is spread in the officialdom of the capital, it's two different things to hear and see. Yan Kai's cause of death is cutting his throat, which is not as flashy as killing in a wizard's dream. However, it is precisely because of this simple and crude method that anyone can do, it is more and more difficult to lock the murderer... Without monitoring, it is too hard to solve the case. "The doors and windows have not been pried or damaged. The murderer and the dead obviously know each other. Interrogate the servants in the mansion to see if anyone has just visited or heard Yan Kai's cry for help. In addition, When interrogating all the people in the water transport yamen, including the transport emissary, they should remember to search their bodies, so as to avoid having magic tools to cover up their breath and hinder the observation of lookout Qi. " Xu Qian gives suggestions. Zhang Xunfu said, "transit envoy, please cooperate with us." For more than an hour after that, the three warlocks of Si Tianjian kept observing the officials and officials of the water transport Yamen. With the death of gang Yun's envoy Yan Kai, the clue to the case of "self theft" is broken. Accompanied by Jiang Luzhong, governor Zhang went to Yuzhou's probation department. This yamen is in charge of the prison, which is exactly the Yamen in charge of this matter. At the same time, it was also the supervisory organ of the imperial court, which was subordinate to the duchayuan. Governor Zhang is the imperial censor of the capital inspection court, and is the immediate superior of the inspection department. In the afterglow of dusk, Xu Qi'an sat on the ridge of the water transport yamen, bathed in Jinxia, and resumed the case in his mind. When one gang Yun envoy dies, the clue to the whole case is broken. Oh, it's also a clue that the people behind the scenes didn't control the whole water transport Yamen. Thus, it can be seen that this is not a simple corruption case... The Minister of the Ministry of industry has collapsed, and the water transport yamen of Yuzhou still continues to repeat the operation of smuggling iron ore to Yunzhou... Which means that there are still people behind the scenes. This person's power is not big, and he can only control one gang Yunshi. No, it may not be that his power is not big, maybe he is acting for the sake of concealment. If I didn't run into it like shit, maybe the smuggling of iron ore will continue. Since there is smuggling of iron ore, will there be smuggling of official salt and saltpeter? It's time for the imperial court to investigate the water transportation yamen of each state. "I'm afraid this trip to Yunzhou is more dangerous than I imagined." Xu Qi'an thought anxiously, and suddenly heard that someone was calling him. "Ningyan, let's go. Go to Jiaofang and take charge of Yile." Song Tingfeng stood in the courtyard and waved to him."No, I'm thinking about business." Xu Qi'an has no good airway. "Go ahead. I heard that the women of Jiaofang department in Yuzhou know how to serve people." Song Tingfeng is good at persuasion. "I always know Jiaofang department. I'm afraid I can't be promoted all my life." Xu Qi'an's response that he hates iron but not steel. ... Yuzhou, Jiaofang department. In the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, Xu Qi'an held up his wine cup and said with a laugh, "come on, drink and drink. After six days on the water, Laozi's birds have cobwebs." The watchmen raised their glasses together, and each of them was a pretty girl. They pushed the cup to change the cup and talked and laughed. As expected, Xu Ningyan came with him. Song Tingfeng was not surprised by this. It should be said that they were all expected. When he was in the capital, Xu Qian never took the initiative to go to the Jiaofang department. It was song Tingfeng who suggested it. Then he and Zhu Guangxiao went with him. Sometimes when Xu Ningyan was practicing, he swore: "Song Tingfeng, if you have a little conscience, don't disturb Laozi's practice.". After scolding, pat your ass and follow. Yuzhou's jiaofangsi is different from the capital. It does not cover such a large area, but it is built near the river, with six courtyards and two high-rise buildings. It's better to have elegant scenery. The rippling water distorts the reflection of the red lantern, and the sound of the wind music of silk and bamboo floats in the courtyard and on the sparkling river. As Xu Qi'an and others, they would not go to the building to drink with the mixed customers. Led by the officials of the water transport yamen, they came to the courtyard of a Huakui named Hongxiu to play tea. Huakui, who is called Hongxiu, seems to be reluctant. After drinking in the yard for half an hour, she hasn't come out yet.
