Chapter 506: Fire and Water (3)

The cold wind blew over the city of Beijing, and the water outside had long since turned into ice. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, in the signing room of the Dongcheng Terracotta Division, where there are several charcoal stoves and the doors and windows are tightly closed, it is as warm as spring, plus the big side stove (that is, hot pot) on one of the charcoal stoves, eating the mutton in the pot with the scalded rice wine, Zhang Yun, the deputy commander on duty today, and his two henchmen, only feel warm, and they are more happy than the spring night.

In fact, these kind of carefree days, Zhang Yun and they haven't enjoyed it for a long time recently. The sudden flood not only caused a lot of damage to the people, but also made the soldiers and horses busy here, and there was no idle time for several months. Fortunately, as time goes by, and the New Year is approaching, there is less work at hand, and I can enjoy a good meal on this kind of night.

After eating a few pieces of meat and drinking a few glasses of wine, the interest of several people was obviously high-pitched. His cronie Zhou Jia smiled: "My lord, this year can be regarded as an eventful autumn, and now that the New Year is approaching, we should be able to relax in the yamen, right?" ”

Another cronie, Song Yi, frowned and said: "That's not necessarily, you don't know that there has been a lot of trouble between Jinyiwei and Dongchang in the capital recently, although both sides have always restrained, but no one knows when the two sides will fight like before." When the time comes, will we have to go to the people of our Soldiers and Horses Division to clean up the aftermath for them? ”

"Old Song, don't spoil the fun, it's almost the New Year, can't we think of something good, stop it?" Zhou Jia glanced at him dissatisfiedly, and then at his own boss, who also looked unhappy.

Song Yi came to his senses and hurriedly picked up the wine glass: "It's a small mouth, I will punish myself." After drinking a glass of hot wine, he changed his words and said: "Actually, Lao Zhou, what you said is right, whoever will stop at the end of the year, I think Jinyiwei and Dongchang will be no exception." They just want to fight, and they have to wait for the end of the year. ”

Although these two subordinates spoke like this, Zhang Yun's mood couldn't help but drop a little because of this, and he just snorted: "If only they could really be as restrained as we expected." But Jinyiwei and those guys in Dongchang have never been worry-free, I hope they don't commit crimes on our side of Dongcheng. Saying this, he didn't have much confidence in his heart, after all, these two yamen were in Dongcheng, and if there was a conflict, it was likely to be here.

Just after the two subordinates comforted their bosses as if they were stammering, and the three of them pushed their cups and drank them again, there was a sound of neighing in front of them. As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Song Yi laughed: "These guys will be lazy, and they must not have done a good job in patrolling the city, so they ran back when they were cold." ”

In this regard, both Zhang Yun and Zhou Jia are used to seeing it, and Commander Zhang smiled faintly: "Call them all in to drive away the cold, this ghost weather, it is really not easy to ask them to patrol outside at night." ”

"Or my lord, you know how to be considerate of your brothers." After patting the sycophants, Zhou Jia quickly stood up and wanted to go out to invite the brothers outside to come in for a drink. But when the others came, the thick door was pushed open, and then the thick curtain was lifted by force, and a big man walked in with the cold wind howling outside.

"Lao Li, you're not welcome, you didn't have to be summoned by an adult to come in. Hurry up, call your brothers in, for your lordship has given you grace to take refuge from the cold. Zhou Jia said with a smile.

But Li Yi in front of him didn't see the slightest smile, but just bowed to Zhang Yun in a formal manner: "Thank you for your compassion, but ...... We just got a lawsuit outside, and I'm afraid we won't be able to drink this wine. ”

"What lawsuit? But there's a guy who breaks the curfew rules? You just throw them into the empty room over there and lock them up overnight. Song Yi asked casually.

Under the gaze of the other two, Li Yi smiled bitterly: "If this is the case, it will be easy to do." It was the two groups of people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang who had a conflict in the green building and fought a lot, and almost demolished the restaurant. ”

"What?" The faces of the three of them changed when they heard this, and they didn't expect that as soon as they talked about it, the matter would come to an end. And, for now, the situation may be more complicated than they feared.

This Luyang Building in the east city is one of the largest restaurants in the capital, and the owner behind it is said to be a servant of the ministry. In this way, today's matter involves three parties. Even if they could put aside the background of the Green Yang Building for the time being, just the private fight between Jinyiwei and Dongchang at night was enough for them to have a headache and drink a pot.

"What's going on?" Zhang Yun's head ached faintly, and he didn't know if it was because he had drunk. But at this time, he, the deputy commander on duty at night, couldn't avoid it.

"As soon as the little one led people to patrol around the Green Yang Building, some of the guys inside ran over to report to the official, saying that there were guests in their own building who had a conflict and a big fight. At first, the little one thought it was just some drunken guy who was causing trouble, so he hurriedly brought someone over...... Unexpectedly, after dissuading the two people, they all took out their own waist cards, and on one side was the deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei, and on the other side was the head of the East Factory...... "Speaking of the back, Li Yi's voice has become very small, and his head has been lowered.

"Oh, Lao Li, in that situation at that time, we should have persuaded to make peace and forget it, why were you so bold to bring these terrible people?" Song Yi complained.

The Dongcheng Terracotta Division is just a six-grade yamen, and its power is extremely limited in the capital, so it is just in charge of ordinary people. It's just that ordinary officials make mistakes, and most of the time they will choose to turn a blind eye, and if they encounter Jinyiwei and Dongchang, they can only pretend not to see it.

Li Yi smiled bitterly: "The little one only learned after he got there that the two of them fought, and at that time, he only thought about calming things down." However, after seeing that we were the people of the Terracotta Division, the two groups of people who were fighting each other clamored again and said that they were going to come to us to fight a lawsuit. If you don't want to bring them, you won't be able to do anything......"

"Are you saying that they themselves asked to follow you to our yamen?" Even Zhang Yun, everyone was stunned when they heard this. To be honest, they've been on an errand in this division for some years, and they really haven't met a prisoner who was brought in by their own invitation. However, as long as you think about their identity, you feel that it is not a big deal for them to do this.

Just as they looked at each other, not knowing what to do, the hanging curtain was lifted from the outside again, and the two men broke in in no particular order. When several people in the room saw this movement, they all frowned, but when they looked again, they found that these two men looked quite embarrassed now, not only were they full of wine stains and soup, but even the momentum of the injured man was more than his own.

The two of them didn't see each other, and after entering the house, they found a place to sit down, and then each reported their identities, one was Yan Huai, the fourth head of the East Factory, and the other was the deputy of Jinyi Wei Qianhu Gelehei.

After everyone greeted each other, Yan Huai and Ge Lehei turned their eyes to Zhang Yun: "Commander Zhang, our brothers were brought back by you in the cold night, you have to give everyone an explanation." You say, how should they send out their East Factory (Jinyiwei)? ”

"This ......" Facing the questioning of two guys who couldn't be provoked, Zhang Yun suddenly panicked. After a while, he said like a thin mud: "Two adults, your conflict this time is just a temporary misunderstanding, everyone is a court official, why do you have to make such a stiff scene?" Do you think this is good, just have a glass of wine here, and give the matter away? ”

"No!" Grehei shook his head like a rattle at that time: "Our brocade guards are not bullied by them. Our brothers were eating and drinking in the restaurant, and these Dongchang bastards suddenly broke in and injured a few brothers. ”

"Ha, it's obvious that you provoked us first, but the wicked people sued first. I'll leave the words here today, this matter is not over, you Terracotta Division must give us a satisfactory explanation to the East Factory! Yan Huai also snorted coldly with his neck twisted.

Yes, this time, everyone in the Soldiers and Horses Division is completely out of line. Persuasion can't be persuaded, but let them play fifty boards each like ordinary cases, and they don't have the courage to do so. At the same time, Zhang Yun and the others are also very strange, why did these two groups of people actually make the same choice, and they had to compete with each other on the bright side? Is it really just for the sake of face?

It's certainly not that simple. Yan Huai was a little overwhelmed by Jinyiwei recently in Dongchang, and he was not angry, so he decided to make things bigger, so that they could use Feng Bao's momentum to turn the situation around. As for Gelehei, he had already been instructed by Yang Zhen, as long as he had the opportunity, he was not afraid to make things bigger, so that it would be easier for the Dongchang side to focus on these details and ignore their real backhand.

Just because both sides have the idea of making things bigger, and no one is willing to bear it, the problem can only be pushed to the head of the Terracotta Division again.

"Damn, Lao Tzu, a small deputy commander of the Terracotta Division, dare to interrogate you people with deep backgrounds? Aren't you bullying people? Zhang Yun scolded the other party in his heart, and complained that his subordinates should not bring back such a big trouble. But other than that, he couldn't come up with any other way for a while.

At this time, Song Yi suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered a few words, which made Zhang Yun's frowning brows feel relieved......
