Chapter Twenty-Six: A Delaying Tactic

Wang Shu groaned.

For a moment he couldn't pay attention.

To be honest, Wang Shu didn't want to develop things to the point of chaos in Jiangnan.

Before that, it was all Wendou.

After that, I'm afraid not.

The pressure from the Jingshi was pressed layer by layer, and Wang Shu was under the pressure of the rat thrower.

He knew it was difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

The emperor gave him the power to use the army. But if the troops are really mobilized, the situation may get out of control.

Wang Shu is naturally not a soft-hearted person.

It's just that the risks behind this may not be something he can bear.

"Your Excellency." Chen Yue came over from afar to salute and said: "It's okay if the adults have nothing to do, the Jiangnan general arrest Zhang Li brought by the minister, today's matter, he will definitely be able to find out." ”

The Jiangnan chief came out and saluted and said, "I've seen adults." ”

This Jiangnan chief catcher is not the kind of martial arts person that many people imagine, but a gray-haired old man, who is a little old when he walks. But his eyes are blazing, without the cloudiness of an old man, and he is a shrewd person at first glance.

Wang Shu did not dare to slack off on this Jiangnan general arrest.

Because of the general arrest of Jiangnan, even Wang Shu has heard of it.

As a special member of the Great Ming Dynasty, Catching Kuai is indispensable in many things.

After the Law on Officials, Zhu Qizhen specially adjusted the system of catching fast.

Generally speaking, the county government will have patrol inspections to manage local security. However, the arrest is independent of the inspection and is responsible for the detection of various cases.

From the county to the government, to the provincial chief. There is also the chief arrester of the Criminal Department, and he is a five-rank official.

Generally speaking, if you do it quickly, it will come to an end, unless there is a big case after it is solved, there will be an increase in officials, but no matter how many products the officials will be added. That's all I can be responsible for.

But just like that, it is also attracted by many original catchers.

Because of the professionalism of this industry, the catchers in many places are the original group of people. Because many of these people have been passed down from father to son for generations, and few can replace them.

With the incentive of promotion, the enthusiasm of many arrests to solve cases has increased greatly, and many arrests have emerged that have made far-reaching statements, and this Jiangnan chief arrester Zhang Li is one.

In fact, Jiangnan Chief Arrest is just another name, his real official position is Jiangsu Chief Capture, although he is only a seven-grade official, but in his industry, he is already a top talent.

Although Wang Shu is known as Qingtian everywhere.

But many times the case is solved by the people below, in fact, generally speaking, in this era, the population flow is less, and they know each other's roots. And I haven't seen such strange knowledge as Conan's three thousand killings.

So, many times the case is not complicated. It's just that the things behind the case are complicated. The truth is simple, but it is not necessarily simple to handle the case with sincerity.

Wang Shuzheng understands the professionalism of the industry, and also knows that the head of the Ming Criminal Department, which is waiting for the vacancy, is likely to be the bag of the old man in front of him.

was even more polite to him.

Wang Shu returned the salute and said: "There is President Lao who catches the head." ”

Zhang Li immediately said: "Don't dare to be." ”

Immediately, he took a few disciples and entered the fire that had not been completely extinguished, and after a careful investigation, he came out. Zhang Li said: "My lord, it can be basically concluded that someone set the fire. ”

"First of all, Xia Guan just saw that several of the dead people who guarded the warehouse, several of the corpses are no longer there, only one has not been completely burned, but the minister can be sure that he was burned by fire after his death."

As for the fact that Zhang Li had just asked his disciples to open the lungs of this charred corpse, he wouldn't tell these adults.

"Secondly, the first warehouse to be burned down is the No. 3 warehouse of A. It was not filled with cotton, but with silkworm cocoons. Although the air is a little hot today, it is not said that the cocoon will not burn on its own. ”

If cotton piles up, there is actually a risk of spontaneous combustion.

Fires are not uncommon because of improper handling of cotton. But there are very few cocoons, almost none.

"From these two points, this point is that someone set the fire, as for who it is, how to set the fire, please give the old man a little time."

Wang Shu said: "Then there will be Mr. Lao Zhang's arrest." ”

Zhang Li saluted and said: "Don't dare to be it, it's a matter of the lower officials." "Zhang Likeng has the official position of chief arrest, although it is because he has special strengths in solving cases, but he also knows the rules of officialdom.

is a sensible person.

Solving the case is solving the case, except for solving the case, he doesn't ask anything, he doesn't know anything, An An is a technocrat in a different way, which is what he has today.

What is behind this case, Zhang Li may not know.

After all, the matter of levying business taxes has caused a storm in the city. How could Zhang Li not understand.

So he quit almost immediately and went to investigate his case.

It seems that Zhang Li's judgment made Wang Shu make up his mind.

Wang Shu immediately said to Chen Yue: "Lord Chen. ”

Chen Yue immediately said: "The minister is here." ”

Wang Shu said: "The whole city is under martial law, and cooperate with Mr. Zhang to arrest and solve the case." ”

Chen Yue said: "Yes." ”

Wang Shu's voice suddenly became a little long, and he said to Chen Yue with something else: "Lord Chen, I don't want to have a second time. ”

When Chen Yue heard this, he immediately said, "Your Excellency, ------"

Chen Yue listened to Wang Shu's meaning, it seemed that he knew as the person behind him, and he was suddenly anxious, he also knew that after he saw the huge risk of Wang Shu's trip, he already had the intention of retreating in his heart.

So in many things, Chen Yue is not able to work, and it seems that Wang Shu is tossing.

But let him stand on the side of these Jiangnan gentry, but he will never be.

The more this kind of bureaucracy without a bottom line, the more it can understand the contrast between strength and weakness.

Now the Suzhou gentry are actually blackmailing the imperial court. But the imperial court really has to make up its mind, and it is not afraid to break the bottles and cans, and the Jiangnan gentry are counted as one, what good end can they have?

Do you really think that the one on the dragon chair today is the master who can be bullied?

It's just that Chen Yue also understands that now that the imperial court is financially tight, these Jiangnan gentry are also hitting the knees, and in the long run, these people will definitely not end well. But the short-term form is not easy to say.

But being an official is not a stock speculation.

Speculating in stocks is trapped, and you can still hope to rise one day, but when an official dies before dawn, it is also a person who dies and cannot be resurrected.

Wang Shu interrupted Chen Yue's words and said: "I know that Lord Chen is a loyal minister of the imperial court, and you also know the current situation, I don't want to have a second time, you also know this sentence, who should let it know." ”

Chen Yue's heart suddenly lit up, and he said, "What adults mean is -------"

Wang Shu said: "Now that the court is troubled, Jiangnan can't be troubled. ”

Chen Yue was overjoyed.

When he listened to Wang Shu's words, he knew that Wang Shu meant to compromise.

That's great.

Politics is the art of compromise.

That's how a lot of things are.

Wang Shu threw a mouse bogey, and the gentry in Jiangnan wanted to completely tear their faces with the court.

What Chen Yue knows, how can they not know.

It's just that many times, the benefits are fought for.

The imperial court obviously stabbed Jiangnan, and they didn't make any moves, didn't they say to the imperial court that there were many people here who came stupidly. In this way, the imperial court's claim for Jiangnan will only have no end.

But now, the two sides have competed, and they both know each other's strength.

Isn't it time to negotiate?

They can take a step back from each other, for example, certain industries can be shaved out of the monopoly, give more discounts, and so on.

Chen Yue saw the dawn of solving the problem. In fact, Chen Yue had the intention of mediating in it a long time ago. It's just that Wang Shu is famous, and Chen Yue doesn't dare to speak easily.

At this moment, Wang Shu has the intention of relieving.

Chen Yue naturally knew what to do. He immediately said, "Xia Guan understands what to do. ”

After Wang Shu asked Chen Yue to go down, he paced for a while, wrote a letter, called a brocade guard, and asked him to send him to Nanjing, all in front of Wang Yue.

Wang Yue naturally understood what Wang Shu meant, and he said, "My lord, have you decided to transfer the Beijing camp to Suzhou?" ”

Wang Shu said lightly: "The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop. I am a king for a lifetime, and I can do anything, but I can't bear the alliance under the city. ”
