Chapter six hundred and seventieth: too many books

Chen Kaizhi had already left the palace and returned straight to Jingzhao Mansion. As soon as he arrived, he had an order to come and the Jinyiwei was officially established.

Yesterday, Chen Kaizhi had already handed over the charter, and everyone in the palace allowed it.

In Chen Kaizhi's vision, the Jinyiwei has the same structure as in his previous life. It has a branch of the Wenshu, the Nanzhenfusi, and the Beizhenfusi. Under it, there are thousands of households, hundreds of households, and the general banner, small banner officials, and ordinary personnel, all of which are called Lishi.

In fact, Chen Kaizhi really wanted to change Lishi to a lieutenant, but unfortunately, the lieutenant of this era was considered a middle-level military officer, and the Jinyiwei was not a formal personal army, so how could there be such "benefits".

However, because he received the support of Empress Dowager Mu, the Jinyiwei had the right to write secret comments. The greatest advantage of this power is that he could communicate unilaterally with the palace.

Now many of the officers in Jingzhao Mansion are already very happy, because from the imperial decree, the Jinyiwei belongs to the third rank of yamen, such as Chen Kaizhi, the commander of the Jinyiwei, who is the third rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of rank of

In other words, generally speaking, the third-rank yamen office, as the commander-in-chief of the subordinate officials, is usually the fourth-rank rank, and then the assistant officer is the fifth-rank rank, and when he reaches a thousand households, he is often the sixth-rank, and so on.

Many of the official positions that suddenly appeared were just black hats. Well, there seems to be no concept of black hats in this era, but this official position is real.

Many of the heads of Jingzhao Prefecture are logically considered to be lowly officials, but they do not belong to the court's organization. The court only recognizes officials but does not. Now, they are considered formal military officers.

For example, Wu Du Head, as the deputy chief head, can at least become a fifth-rank tutor. This is the accumulation of virtue of the ancestors.

However, at present, Chen Kaizhi is not in a hurry to throw away all his official positions, but is preparing to draft a charter and then touch these original people.

Whoever is steady, who is more impatient, who is suitable for civil service, who is down-to-earth and willing to work hard, at least you must know this in your heart.

If you don’t have a ban at the moment, it means that many people have hope in their hearts.

In addition, even the Jinyiwei's official office has been prepared. It is a disrepaired building in the inner city. Because the Jinyiwei requires its own prison and enough official residences, I am afraid that the building will be repaired.

For the time being... I had to continue to be on duty in Jingzhao Mansion.

Chen Kaizhi had arrived at the dungeon at this time. This dark and humid dungeon gave people a sense of suffocation. The air seemed to be filled with the smell of corruption, and it seemed to be a little bloody.

Behind Chen Kaizhi were the first few Wudu to accompany him. They didn't know the purpose of Chen Kaizhi coming here, but Chen Kaizhi asked where Zhang Huaichu was imprisoned. He was busy with the prison leader and arrived at a dark and low water prison.

The water prison is covered with black mud, and there is no way to get a foot.

Chen Kaizhi stepped in and saw that he was already hanging up here, dying, and his breathing was almost gone.

Chen Kaizhi glanced at him and said calmly: "Is this Zhang Huaichu?"

"Yes, it's him..."

Wu Du responded with a loud voice.

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, looked at Zhang Huaichu in front of him, and gently curled the corners of his mouth and raised a sneer, then said lightly.

"Catch the case file."

Wu Du was busy asking someone to retrieve the case file. Someone specially took the lights to make the place brighter, but it was better to be darker. Once the fire shone, the filth in the prison cell would be fully visible. Even if Chen Kaizhi was used to hard life, he could feel a little uncomfortable when he saw this scene.

But he soon put his mind on the file and started reading it very seriously.

After reading it, Chen Kaizhi collected the file, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked slowly, "Zhang Huaichu, the owner of Sijifang? How many people have pointed out that he was forced to do good deeds. Oh, by the way, and, in Sijifang, he has beaten several women who refuse to obey, right?"

Wu Du nodded quickly and said, "It should be correct. There are many people who can prove it. Among the evidence, there are the madam from Sijifang and a liar in Beijing. The guy was also taken away. He was involved in the meeting. In order to reduce the guilt, he explained everything he should have to confess. Zhang Huaichu, with the iron evidence, has admitted that he killed three women and there are many other scandals."

Chen Kaizhi's eyes were faint. Seeing this Huaichu hanging, he seemed to have a little feeling. His terrified eyes appeared in his messy long hair with a disheveled head and face. His eyes fell on Chen Kaizhi, and his body wanted to struggle, so he twisted in the air, making it ridiculous.

Zhang Huaichu's mouth opened slightly, making a humming sound, as if he had something to say, but at this moment he was weak and could not speak, and the next moment he fell into a coma.

Chen Kaizhi stared at Zhang Huaichu, his eyebrows sank, and he asked word by word: "It is said that he has something to do with Prince Guang'an?"

Wu Du said hurriedly: "Yes, he admitted that he was the nephew of the Prince Consort of Guang'an. In fact, this Sijifang is a business of the Princess's Mansion. Although His Highness the eldest princess has a salary, he still thinks it is too little. He let some of his confidants out of business. This is actually common among the Duke and Marquis."

It seems that this time I caught the right person, just wanted to give some color to such people, but I never thought that I would hit you by chance.

So Chen Kaizhi pursed his lips and smiled.

"Yes, they have such a big backer, and they naturally don't take ordinary transactions seriously. After all, the profits are too small, so such people do business, either gambling or almost cannot do without these. And once such people do such transactions, they are fearless and brave. With the support of someone, they will naturally not take people seriously. Those who violate the law and discipline in the capital account for half of them, and they all have something to do with them."

Chen Kaizhi narrowed his eyes deeply, and the corners of his mouth squirmed gently, as if he was muttering to himself: "Let him wake up."

Wu Du nodded and ordered someone to lift the cold well water and pour it on Zhang Huaichu.

“Wow…”

As soon as the water sounded, Zhang Huaichu immediately shuddered in the air. As soon as he woke up, the wound on his body suddenly hurt and gritted his teeth. He shouted: "Give me your life, spare me your life, I've said everything I should say, I confess my guilt, I'm going to punish, I've said everything... Say me..."

He was not at all tough, and soon, he cried bitterly and begged for mercy, and his whole body looked pitiful.

Facing Zhang Huaichu, Chen Kaizhi had no slight compassion, because he knew that if he was soft-hearted, he would probably die in the future. Therefore, his eyes narrowed even more and more. The corners of his mouth gently raised and asked lightly: "Are you relatives of Prince Guang'an?"

"Yes, yes, he... he is my second uncle, yes..." Zhang Huaichu was cheered up when he heard the prince consort of Guang'an, and this seemed to have become his life-saving straw. Although he repeatedly mentioned his second uncle's identity when he was arrested, he ignored it. Now, there is someone who recognizes his second uncle after all.

Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "The brothel you run is usually told by the Prince Consort of Guang'an."

"This..." Zhang Huaichu hesitated and hesitated.

Chen Kaizhi showed an impatient look and warned coldly: "I don't have much time to ask you, and you can answer truthfully. If I leave, you will have to live here for the rest of your life and die."

Chen Kaiyi said, and ordered the civil servants beside him: "Prepare the transcript."

Seeing Chen Kaizhi's hard work, Wu Du had already moved a half-old chair in person. Chen Kaizhi sat down and looked at Zhang Huaichu who was hanging in the air. He seemed to be waiting patiently, and someone poured tea for Chen Kaizhi.

Chen Kaizhi shook his head and pushed the tea away. He didn't dare to drink the tea in this dungeon, let alone drinking tea in this environment... are you so funny?

"I will only give you two incense sticks."

"Yes, it was my second uncle who ordered it."

"Why did he ask you to do this?"

"I... I used to be just a fool, but later my family couldn't stand it, so I sent me to the capital. After staying in the capital for two years, my second uncle ordered me to do business. The capital was from the Princess' Mansion. I paid a sum of silver to the Princess' Mansion on time every month."

"Business is very prosperous?" Chen Kaizhi smiled and continued to ask.

"It's okay... it's mainly... my second uncle will recommend a lot of people to go there, all of whom are big shots in Beijing, and all of whom I look for...

A glimmer of light flashed across Chen Kaizhi's eyes: "Among the women you are looking for, in addition to the ones you bought, there is also the daughter of a criminal in the Jiaofangsi?"

Zhang Huaichu was silent again.

But soon, he nodded: "Yes. Jiaofangsili, if there is a new candidate, I will ask me to choose."

Wu Dutou, who was standing beside him, was trembling with fear. How could he have the time to care about the Jiafangsi?

This Jiaofangsi belongs to the Ministry of Rites, and at the same time, eunuchs are also sent to manage the palace. The responsibilities of Jiaofangsi are dance and music. All personnel are children of criminals. When they enter the Jiaofangsi, they will be trained and managed by eunuchs and officials of the Ministry of Rites. They are official slaves, mainly used for celebrations and some performance activities in the palace.

As an ordinary brothel can go to the Jiafangsi to select official slaves at any time and transfer to the brothel. No wonder the Sijifang has a prosperous business, which is almost a business without any capital.

Chen Kaizhi glanced at the recorder, and the smile on his lips became even more intense: "Why can you go to the teaching staff to pick people, and how can you transfer from the official slave?"
