No wonder Yang Deshui was so happy when he was demoted from acting chief catcher to deputy chief catcher. It turned out that the new chief catcher was actually the prince Zhu Yan. It was the first time in the history of the Ming Dynasty that the prince concurrently served as the chief catcher of the six gates.

Liumen is affiliated to the Ministry of Justice. From the establishment of the fourth rank. This yamen is big or not. There are institutions like Jinyiwei and Dongchang in the capital. Liumen does not have much substantive power, and it is not small at all. After all, it is responsible.

The public security in the capital is managed by various martial arts factions, especially with the recent implementation of New Deal 2.0. The imperial court is the management agency of each martial arts faction.

Previously, Zhu Yan mentioned that he would reorganize the Six Doors and reform the main functions. He originally thought that he would shout slogans, gain some political capital, and increase his reputation. Unexpectedly, he would directly serve as the chief catcher.

Fan Xiaodao whispered, "Do you know what this means?"

Niu Dafu said, "Then if our six gates are in the capital, won't we have to go sideways?"

After all, this is the first yamen that His Royal Highness has taken charge of after returning to Beijing. Who is the prince? As long as the future prince keeps up with the situation, stands in line and does not make principled mistakes, he will be his own yamen from now on.

Yang Deshui coughed twice and said: "The vice president of the six gates, Yang Deshui, will lead all the colleagues in the six gates to kowtow to the chief executive!"

Zhu Yan is wearing a crimson chief catcher's uniform. This suit was specially customized by Shang Yi Supervisor. Compared with the previous chief catcher's uniform, there are two more four-clawed golden dragons on the cuffs. The needlework on the shirt is sewn with gold thread.

Properly tailored, it looks majestic without losing grace, which immediately distinguishes it from the previous head-hunting ones.

Zhu Yan said: "Get up."

Yang Deshui held up the list of six gates and said: "I'm reporting to the general manager. There are 413 people in the six gates in the capital, and 630 people in the 13 branch offices of the two capitals in other cities. This is the list, please.

Take a look."

When the new chief executive takes office, the first thing he does is to do the bow-dding ceremony. When Yang Deshui first took over as acting chief executive, the ceremony was quite grand, but Zhu Yan didn't take it seriously. He looked around and said slowly: "By His Majesty's decree,

, From now on, I will also serve as the chief catcher of the six gates, taking charge of all matters, so I will have to say a few words."

Everyone held their breath and listened intently, ears raised, waiting quietly for the prince's lecture.

There are three things that a new official should do when he takes office: if you don't want to burn him, you will burn me. Normally, if you add sand, visit the dock, and buy account books, once these three things are burned, you will basically be able to stand on your feet. But for the prince, his

The identity is on display, there is no need at all.

No one knows who the fire will burn when His Highness the Prince comes to the six doors, and no one dares to say anything.

Zhu Yandao: "First, from now on, the six gates will be separated from the Ministry of Punishment and will be under my personal leadership. There is no need to report to the Ministry of Punishment for any matters of any size. Of course, business dealings should follow procedures."

"Second, all personnel will be relieved of their duties with immediate effect. They will continue to perform their duties according to their previous responsibilities. After I talk to you one by one, I will re-define the positions, salary and staff, select the virtuous, and remove the mediocre and villains.

Mr. Yang, please draw up a list for me."

Yang Deshui repeatedly said yes. This was an excellent opportunity. Now that the six doors were reshuffled and cooperated with the prince's interview, they could take the opportunity to squeeze out some people who were not very obedient. For example, Li Beihai, the prison prosecutor, relied on his seniority to

, who often contradicts himself in the door, no matter what, he must be arranged for the first interview.

"Third, there are two places that I am more concerned about, the Anti-Theft Department and the Jianghu Department. These two yamen, one maintains the security of the capital. This matter is related to the happiness index of the people, so we should not be careless. As for the Jianghu Department, I was in

I believe everyone here has heard what Dingguo Temple said, and we use it as a guideline for the reform of the Jianghu New Deal."

Zhu Yan added: "It is useless to say anything else. There will be many opportunities to get along with you in the future. When you get along with me, as long as you are willing to work hard, I will not treat you badly!"

Yang Deshui quickly expressed his position. His Highness the Crown Prince's words were far-sighted and towering, like mountains and flowing water, bringing new vitality and new impetus to Six Doors. He talked a lot about this kind of nonsense, and then took the initiative to say that Six Doors must "seize opportunities."

, catch up, and turn the six gates into a government office where the emperor can rest assured and the prince can feel at ease."

In the middle of the conversation, Zhu Yan interrupted directly, "Okay, Mr. Yang, please make arrangements. The conversation will begin in half an hour."

Everyone dispersed one after another, preparing for the upcoming interview that may be related to their future careers.

The Anti-Theft Department, Fan Xiaodao, Zhao Xing, and Niu Dafu gathered together to chat, while Ding Yi, the red-robed head catcher, sat in the office, looking thoughtful.

Fan Xiaodao said: "Unexpectedly, he turned around and became our immediate boss."

Niu Dafu said, "You may not believe me when I say it, but we share the same sorrows with His Highness the Crown Prince. Do you want to mention our old relationship when we talk later?"

Zhao Xingdao: "Public is public, private is private. If he knew that your job was bought from Mr. Yang, he would probably dismiss you."

When Niu Dafu heard this, he was speechless and said, "Forget it, let's not mention it." He picked up a pen and prepared to write a work report. After thinking about it, he had been working for a few months and was working with documents all day, and he had nothing to show for it.

I racked my brains and couldn't write a few words about the case.

Zhao Xing asked Fan Xiaodao, "Have you thought about what to say?"

Fan Xiaodao said seriously, "I want to check Baihua Tower."

Zhao Xing was stunned for a moment, "I thought you two had some friendship, so I could mention the red-coated headhunters. After all, after the last Phoenix Ridge incident, you should mention the red-coated ones."

"Why are you more anxious about this than me?"

Zhao Xingdao: "I can find an excuse to raise your rent."

"However, there are so many people in the six doors, so it may not be our turn today."

The two deputy chiefs of the six gates, eight chiefs, and more than twenty red-robed chiefs were arrested. Yang Deshui quickly compiled the list and handed it to Zhu Yan. After all, for him, serving His Highness the Crown Prince well was more important than

It will be effective in solving ten cases.

Zhu Yan was also a pragmatist. He took the list, flipped through a few pages, and checked out a dozen names with a pen. The first person he wanted to see was the Finance and Taxation Secretary, who was responsible for the large and small expenses inside and outside the six doors. If he wanted to know more about

For a department, let’s start with the accounts.

Zhu Yan asked very carefully about the expenditure structure of the six doors, the expenses allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs, the usage process, etc. Even some details were not clear to Yang Deshui. The conversation lasted for half an hour.

Yang Deshui admired him deeply. He thought that the prince was just a casual person who talked about empty talk, but he didn't expect to be so pragmatic. You know, when the prince was in Jinling City, he went to the fields to chat with old farmers about the harvest.

The set working methods have long been ingrained in his bones.

In a blink of an eye, it was lunch time, Zhu Yan finished talking to one person, and Yang Deshui said, "Your Highness, how about we eat something first?"

Zhu Yan said: "In the yamen, just ask me to be the chief catcher." He rubbed his temples, and after talking to more than ten people all morning, he was a little tired, and said: "Don't bother, my time is limited, let the cook do the dishes.

Just bring the plain noodles here and eat them." After thinking about it, he added, "Prepare an extra bowl and call Fan Xiaodao over. I'll talk to him first."

Fan Xiaodao looked at the list and estimated that it would be his turn in the afternoon or evening. He was about to go out to eat when he heard Zhu Yan's invitation. He spread his hands to Zhao Xing and Niu Dafu and said, "Wait for me for a while. It's really not the right time."

.”

When he arrived at the chief arrester's office, before he could salute, Zhu Yan smiled, waved his hand and said, "Xiao Dao, come sit down and treat you to some noodles." Then he said to Yang Deshui, "Go get two heads of raw garlic."

Fan Xiaodao had no choice but to sit down.

Yang Deshui muttered in his heart, what kind of bad luck did this Fan Xiaodao have to sit and eat with His Highness the Crown Prince? I was arrested by the dignified vice president, and he was not even qualified to finish the soup. However, despite the slander, he still kept a smile on his face.

, "Let's do it."

Zhu Yan said: "I looked at your file and found that your salary is not high."

Fan Xiaodao sat down nonchalantly and said while eating, "You can still afford noodles."

Zhu Yan said with a smile: "I asked you to come to the Prince's Mansion to help, but you refused to come, so I had to come to Six Doors in person. What, you didn't expect it?"

Fan Xiaodao said: "It seems that there is no place to hide."

"Well, now that I am in charge of the six sects, our friendship is no longer a day or two. If you have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to mention them."

Fan Xiaodao said: "I want to check Baihua Tower."

Baihualou?

Of course Zhu Yan knew Baihua Tower, which was the property of her aunt Princess Taiping.

When he returned to Beijing this time, he felt unprecedented pressure. Although the prince did not participate in politics, according to royal tradition, the prince would be given a yamen at the appropriate time to let him practice his practical abilities. The best place to go is the Hanlin Academy and the Ministry of Personnel.

Yamen such as the Imperial College and the Ministry of Rites deal with people and can also accumulate connections for future governance, but His Majesty just sent him to six doors, weakening his power in disguised form.

He categorically did not believe that Princess Taiping was not secretly involved. Moreover, not long ago, there was an assassination of unknown origin. Although there was no solid evidence, Princess Taiping's influence could not be excluded.

Baihualou is a brothel, not public, but it is Taiping's money bag. And with this, many official transactions are also conducted here in private. If Fan Xiaodao wants to touch them, his interests will inevitably be affected. I believe there will be resistance.

Not small.

However, it is rude to not reciprocate.

One month after returning, there have been three or four major dangers. Zhu Yan is not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others. Since the six doors are in his hands, let's start to fight back. At least, it must make Taiping feel the pain, and it will not cause any harm.

Her counterattack.

After all, in terms of strength alone, Zhu Yan is still weaker than Taiping who has been operating in the capital for many years.

"You can check it, but you have to stop it in moderation. What are your ideas?"

Fan Xiaodao said: "We are going to implement the Jianghu New Deal, which will look like a New Deal. We will start with rectifying entertainment venues such as brothels and casinos, and come up with a policy. We will conduct surprise inspections of all sensual places in the capital, such as Baihualou.

If you are an industry leader, you have to set an example, right?"

Zhu Yan asked: "Can it withstand investigation?"

Fan Xiaodao said: "There is no clean business in the world, let alone such a place of sensuality. Originally, even if the prince didn't come, we would still have to find a way to deal with Baihualou."

Zhu Yandao: "I support it in principle, but if you pursue this matter, I hope you do it out of justice rather than personal hatred."
