Chapter 10 Takeover of Jinan (3)
Wang Shengdao: "How many prisoners are detained in the jail of the prefect now, and what crimes are they committing?"
Lu Xiangming was stunned and said, "Report to the Lord, Liu Jinfeng and Liu Limu are still responsible for the matters in the criminal and prison decisions. The subordinates do not know the details."
Wang Sheng said lightly: "Now Liu Jinfeng is no longer an official, so I will leave the matters of the criminal prison to you. I will investigate the file and file cases by myself. If anyone dares to stop you, I will directly take it down and throw it into the prison. If I can't find the file and file cases, I will ask the prisoners one by one. I will send someone to do this with you. After three days, I must give me a clear answer."
Lu Xiangming hurriedly said, "Yes, I'll give you the order." But he was thinking in his heart that overseas Chinese were going to investigate prisoners in prison, and this was a very good way.
It turns out that in ancient China, if a new local official wants to establish his reputation, it is the best way to start from prison. Although there are officials who are specifically responsible for criminal and prison lawsuits in the local area, the final judgment power is still in the hands of local officials. Therefore, the ability to investigate and resolve lawsuits is often an important aspect of local officials' political achievements. The experts in case investigations in ancient China, such as Bao Gong, Di Gong, Shi Gong, Liu Gong, etc., are actually not full-time criminal case officials. Moreover, the new local officials take over the cases left by their predecessors, without any burden, and do not have to offend people. If several unjust cases can be found from them, they will add a very serious result to their political achievements. Of course, when investigating cases, you should also pay attention not to investigate cases related to local forces, otherwise, not only will the case not be solved, but your own officials cannot be taken over. But overseas Chinese obviously have no scruples in this regard, so they investigate the case without any obstacles.
At this moment, I heard footsteps, and I saw Li Shan and four others coming in from the yamen gate, going to the lobby to salute Wang Sheng. Li Shan said, "Report to the Lord, we are ordered to arrest Cai Yi, Yang Huaiyuan, Feng Siping, and Liu Jinfeng, but these four people are not at home and have nowhere to go. I will report to the Lord."
Wang Sheng snorted and said, "It's really a coincidence that the four of them are not at home."
Li Shan said: "Report to the adults, these four people are indeed not at home. We dare not engage in private fraud and deceive adults. If the adults don't believe it, don't send others to check it out. If we have any false statements, we will be punished by the adults."
Wang Sheng sneered and said, "Don't send anyone anymore, stand aside for me."
Several people stood aside, but their faces were full of victory smiles. When everyone else saw him, many people thought that the new prefect was probably helpless, because almost all the officers and constables in Jinan Prefecture came from Feng Siping's disciples, and Li Shan and the four of them were Feng Siping's apprentices. Of course, they would not really arrest anyone. They probably informed Feng Siping and others just now, probably because they received the face-to-face call from Feng Siping and others. Therefore, when they came back to deal with Wang Sheng this time, they were also very different from what they were just now, and they meant "What can you do to me?" And it would be the same for everyone Wang Sheng to send.
So some people began to gloat in their hearts, just looking at how the prefect stepped down. Only Lu Xiangming knew that the overseas Chinese were definitely not just there. They must have a backup plan.
At this time, Wang Sheng sat behind the table without saying a word, and everyone was speechless. The atmosphere in the lobby was quite overwhelming.
But it was not long, and only the footsteps were heard. A soldier from the People's Army came straight to the lobby and whispered a few words beside Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng was excited and said, "Bring it up."
Just when everyone vaguely felt that something unexpected was about to happen, a team of soldiers from the People's Army came in from outside the government office. In the army, four people were still escorted and pushed them to the ground in the lobby. It was exactly what Li Shan said, Cai Yi, Yang Huaiyuan, Feng Siping and Liu Jinfeng, who were not at home and did not know where to go. Moreover, the sharp-eyed people had seen clearly that there were some blue and swollen faces on the four people's faces, and some blood marks were also torn. It was obvious that they suffered a considerable loss.
In fact, when Li Shan and the other four people were called, Wang Sheng knew very well that they would definitely not really arrest people, and Wang Sheng had already made arrangements and asked the People's Army to prepare to come to arrest people. Of course, if Li Shan and others really arrested people, it would be great.
After Li Shan and others received the order, they first went to Feng Siping's house and informed Feng Siping of Wang Sheng's arrest of the four people. However, Feng Siping did not agree. While making the four people not at home for their rewards, they also sent people to deliver letters to the other three people and asked the three to come to negotiate. After Na Zhi, when Li Shan and others left, the People's Army immediately took action, surrounded Feng Siping's house and broke into the door to arrest people.
Although these four people are all big and have many disciples and disciples, they are naturally unwilling to surrender, so they all picked up swords, guns and sticks to resist. However, the People's Army is not a vegetarian, and before attacking, it has been authorized. If they encounter resistance to arrest, they can shoot and kill them. After all, the time traveler is planning to use these people to be a scared chicken. Anyway, these four people are notorious in Jinan Mansion, so the bigger the momentum, the better.
As a result, several rows of people in the People's Army shot down and killed some people who were resisting arrest. The resistance collapsed. After all, the guys who could not hold back the swords, guns, sticks and sticks could not withstand the smoke. Feng Siping and four others were also arrested and sent to the lobby of the prefect's office. The four people's houses were blocked and their families were imprisoned, waiting for the next step of disposal.
However, this scared everyone in the hall so hard that their hearts were beating faster. Unexpectedly, overseas Chinese really dared to do it. It seemed that today's affairs were not over. Li Shan and four other officers who were ordered to arrest were frightened at this time, and they knelt on the ground with a "splash" and "splash", kowtowed to Wang Sheng repeatedly, and said repeatedly: "Damn it, villains should die."
At this time, Feng Siping, who was pressed to kneel down on the ground, fought a few times and shouted loudly: "You guys have kowtowed, why do you kowtow? Do you think he can make the decision in Jinan Prefecture if he catches us? It's easy to catch us, but it's difficult to let go."
Wang Sheng was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that these people were arrested and were still so arrogant. He smiled and said: Let it go? That's so easy. Even if you catch you, I don't plan to let you go."
Liu Jinfeng also said: "Whoever is surnamed Wang, what do you want? Don't think we will be afraid that you are the prefect and offend us and will you be punished as the prefect."
In fact, these four people are used to being arrogant in Jinan Prefecture. They usually don’t even take the prefect seriously, so they naturally won’t take the new prefect seriously. They were caught at home just now and dared not resist at the black gun. However, in the lobby of the prefect’s office, they were all arrogant when facing the prefect. No one believed that the new prefect would really kill him, because everyone believed that his disciples and disciples would only listen to him, and all the documents, files and case books in Jinan Prefecture were in their hands. Therefore, if they were not themselves, the Jinan Prefecture would be in chaos.
Wang Sheng laughed instead of anger and said, "I dare to arrest you, of course I am not afraid of offending you. Do you think you have controlled the police, as well as documents, files, and case books. Do I dare not touch you? Such things can threaten others, but they can't scare me." Wang Sheng's voice became stern, "You guys do evil in Jinan Prefecture, take human lives apart, the people are angry, and they have more than their deaths. Today is your death date. Let Liu Jinfeng be dragged out first and execute them on the spot. Let me see if I dare to touch you."
Two People's Army soldiers held Liu Jinfeng up, one left and one right, and Liu Jinfeng felt panic and struggled desperately, shouting: "Who is surnamed Wang, do you dare to kill me? Do you still want to see the present..."
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he struggled, he was still dragged out of the lobby by the People's Army soldiers. In the courtyard outside, a soldier raised his gun and shot at his forehead. With a "bang", Liu Jinfeng thrust his body and fell to the ground and stopped moving.
A burst of exclamation suddenly came from the entire lobby. The overseas Chinese actually killed Liu Jinfeng! Cai Yi, Yang Huaiyuan, and Feng Siping finally realized that overseas Chinese were not just talking about it. At this time, the three of them dared to bear it. They all were so scared that their faces were pale, and they said with a lot of help: "Sir, please spare your life, please spare your life, don't you..."
Unfortunately, Wang Sheng was too lazy to listen to their nonsense, so he waved his hand and the People's Army soldiers dragged all three of them into the yard one by one and shot them one by one. In a short while, the bodies of the four clubs were left in the yard.
At this time, Li Shan and the other four were so scared that they collapsed to the ground, their whole bodies were shaking into a ball. The two of them were so scared that they were incontinent and trembled and couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Wang Sheng glanced at them and said, "I asked you four to arrest people, and I also specifically advised you not to have any personal fraud, and also asked you to choose not to go. If you are good, you will inform them of your information. If I hadn't prepared for it, I would have let them still be free. What's the use of keeping you a few, Lu Tong."
Lu Xiangming hurriedly stepped out and bowed and said, "The emperor is here."
Wang Shengdao: "Expel the four of them from the government office and first get sent to the jail to wait for me to deal with it. If there is any mistake, I will only ask."
In fact, Wang Sheng did not kill Li Shan, the main reason was that these four people were not to die after all. Moreover, Wang Sheng killed people just to establish his authority and shocked the officials of Jinan Prefecture, including local forces, rather than killing people for the sake of killing people. Moreover, the weight of Li Shan and the four people was too light, and killing them would not be able to establish their authority. In addition, Feng Siping, Liu Jinfeng and others had achieved this goal, so there was no need to kill more people.
