In the fourth year of Yonghui (653 AD), the third day of the second month, in the evening.

In the judicial military office of Jinhua Avenue, Wu Kang sat upright in the study room in the backyard, checking the results of yesterday's cleaning, gradually smiling, and opening the memory mode.

Yesterday, I cleaned a street in the gambling house and learned that the wet nurse involved Princess Gaoyang was immediately overjoyed. I heard Du Mei’s clamor and let her behead her whole family, and I was even more excited. I first beat him with a yamen stick, waited for him to die, and put him in the Wuzhou prison and locked up with the perverted criminals.

The money collected by the Ten Gambling House gathered in the main hall of the Jingou Gambling House and accumulated into a small hill, causing a strong visual shock. The clerk of the Judicial Office and those who can write and calculate among the three guards were established, and the Dog-headed military teacher Lao Su was the leader, and the number of stolen money was counted in detail.

Select a confidant from the three guards, plus thirteen bodyguards, set up an inspection brigade, and scholar serves as the captain. Enter the money treasury on duty, closely monitor and audit the audit team to prevent corruption in the audit team. The bad commander Jiang Daniu and the militia leader Yu Qi led people to set up a patrol team, and those who approached the money treasury were killed without mercy.

Cheng Jiulian, the head of the yamen team, led his law enforcement team to deal with gamblers involved in the case and casino staff in accordance with the law. Thirty-eight people who had a gambling income of more than 2,500 per capita were all escorted to the judicial yamen and left them to the judicial jail to be detained.

No more than two or five, and the specific situation is treated specifically. Those who have no eyes are beaten and unconscious due to violent resistance to the law. If they hit another 100 boards, they will have to be killed. Therefore, all of these people were left to Dongming Avenue and notified their families to claim it.

Those who can breathe and evaluate their physical condition. Those who are in good health and in good spirits stand in a team and wait, and one hundred big boards are indispensable; those who are in poor health and indifference will range from twenty to fifty. The screening work is completed, the law enforcement team escorts them, and a long snake formation is arranged. The hands of the person behind him are placed on the shoulders of the person in front, and the eagle catches a chicken.

Wu Kang specifically explained that he respected human rights and privacy, and showed his butt in public, which was a bad habit. Therefore, he was particularly kind. Gamblers were punished for dressing and torture. After the board was completed, they were all left to Dongming Avenue.

The propaganda team went out to walk around the streets and alleys, and read out the advertising slogans: In order to protect the peace of Wuzhou, save the family of gamblers, and restore the bright world of Wuzhou. Qingtian Governor Cui Gong approved that the judicial military officer Wu Gong led the team to eradicate the Dujia Hutong Gambling House. Dear ladies, seeing whether the man is at home, go to the south gate to look for it and quickly pull him home. Those who do not have a curfew will be beaten to twenty more boards...

The transportation brigade scrapes the ground, tables, chairs, porcelain, toilet urinals, etc., and pulls away all the things that can be pulled, like locusts passing through the border. On the Wuzhou Yaqian School, the auction brigade is classified into categories. Dice, cards and other gambling tools are destroyed on the spot; tables, chairs, etc., and the property price is jumped to the auction.

Ten quotations for a large table, five quotations for a bench, three quotations for a toilet, two quotations for a large porcelain bowl... The good guy was instantly robbed by the masses. The people applauded, praised Cui Gong Qingtian, and praised Wu Gong Qingzheng, and the program was very effective.

After the money was counted, everyone, including Wu Kang, was stunned. More than 3,700 jin of money was available for a family of ten, and they could save money for three thousand years. Wu Kang estimated that this was the savings of ten gambling houses over the years and was taken over by himself.

It is always seven pounds of money, twenty-five thousand pounds of copper, and it is impossible to send more than a dozen ox carts to cover up, and it is even more impossible to embezzle them all. Eating alone is not his style, so he thought it carefully and decided that those who meet will have a share of rain and dew.

All the team members were gathered to start a spoil-sharing meeting. Each person who participated in the action would receive two cents of benefits; each person who did not participate in the three guards would receive one cents of reward; the military teacher Lao Su, the bad commander, the head of the yamen, the prison guard and the civilian team leader, each of whom was twenty cents of reward.

The scene was cheering, the team members were smiling and gave big gifts. They sat in a row and split the fruits, and Wu Kang smiled and handed the wrapped copper coins one by one to the team members. He gave some serious words of encouragement. After the small split, his face was frozen.

Send everyone to withdraw the team, leave forty confidants, and wait until the curfew comes, and then divide the remaining 3,000 tents. He instructed Jiang Daniu and sent someone to the sanitation department to set up ten ox carts, brush twenty dung buckets, and act as temporary cash trucks.

Cui Yixuan is the top leader and must give him five hundred; Lao Lu, the military officer, is about to retire, and will give him two hundred; Lao Yu, the commander, is very willing to give him two hundred; two, three, the military officer, and Huarong, a doctor of medicine, each of them.

At about 11 o'clock in the evening, all the above-mentioned people were delivered. The remaining 1,500 were considered. First count out 300 yuan, as the stolen money was seized, and temporarily sent to the judicial office. After tomorrow, together with the action report, it will be handed over to the Sihu Office for confiscation.

Another 200 were counted and sent to the old Wei mansion of Si Shi Joined the Army. Although Old Wei was not a good person, his son Wei Qinghua was very interested and came to inform him that the Du family was Princess Gaoyang in the backstage.

There are still 1,200 guan left, and I will all pull my own family? It’s still unrealistic! The six major military leaders are on equal terms, and they really can’t offend them. Even if they are promoted to the military, their work depends on their support. The more Wu Kang thought about it, the more depressed it became. The old foxes joined forces to cheat me and even give it to them. It’s so frustrating.

Each person is about 200 yuan, so I will send it to my home first, so I will take care of them for a few days. Arrange to open the seal and seal these ten gambling houses. The seal is 60 years long and 15 miles wide, and is crossed on the crack of the door. One book: sealed by the Wuzhou Judicial Office; one book: on the second day of the second month of the fourth year of Yonghui.

I was busy at three o'clock in the morning and fell asleep when I returned to work in the yamen at dawn. I quickly felt the pressure.

Mr. Sun, a member of the Sihu Army, took the lead, threw his documents into his desk, and complained at the top of his voice: The top ten gambling shops were cleaned, and 300 gambling funds were seized, and the second fools were cheated? Erlang, you are not kind, you can get a full bag, but you can't eat too ugly. You don't say anything, and spit out a few hundred s of money, so don't make it difficult for Uncle Sun to do it.

Wu Kang laughed and complained secretly: According to the procedures, the officials and judicial joint operations, the law office is responsible for arresting people, and the household office is responsible for statistics. But you, an old man, dare not offend the Du family and dare not participate in the action. There is nothing to say, the stolen money is only 300, do you want it?

This confrontation ended in Wu Kang's failure. Lao Sun didn't even want to see him and threatened to leave without paying money. Wu Kang was helpless and gave up the bill to share the spoils and confessed the whereabouts of the copper coins. The meaning was obvious. If you are not satisfied, let's share it again.

When he learned that he had divided 200, Lao Sun smiled and immediately said: It is completely reasonable to seize 300 stolen money. The owner of the gambling house was not stupid and would not put too much money. In front of Wu Kang, he took out the seal of the household yamen and stamped the seizure document. Finally, he strongly asked to withdraw the money in the afternoon and reach an agreement and go happily.

As soon as he left, Si Cang Lao Sun came back, with the same routine and complained: I said Erlang, the Du family's backstage is so tough that he can't offend easily. The head of the family Du Qiming came to me and asked me to release Sun Mei immediately and compensate the Du family for the losses. He is a big taxpayer, and his uncle can't stand it anymore, so you can do it.

Wu Kang knew it well, this was all nonsense. I would smash him, and the pressure was on me. Guan Cangya was a bad guy. We were at the same level. Even if the Du family put pressure on him, they would look for Lao Cui and Lao Lu. Who are you? I was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, so I posted the bill to share the spoils and sent him away.

I didn't do anything else in the morning, and I dealt with the five old foxes, making me dizzy. The so-called withdrawal of money in the afternoon was just a perfunctory excuse. I didn't control myself for ten days and half a month. I'm sorry for myself and my dirty thoughts.

When I went to work in the afternoon, the atmosphere was much harmonious. Those colleagues who arrived at the account came to visit one after another, and they were happily cheering each other. Finally, Lao Lu came over and brought interesting news: Du Qiming, together with nine major households and the family members of the gambler in prison, visited Lao Cui's house, and was frowning when he came out.

After saying this, Lao Lu also expressed his concern. The Du family had sent troops to Chang'an on a fast horse and went to complain to Aunt Du Mei. Wu Kang did not comment, but instead comforted Lao Lu, saying that everything was in control. It was not me who was unlucky, but the Du family, so let's wait and see.

I sent Lao Lu away, and waited until I went to the yamen, but not until Lao Cui. When I got home, I planned to visit him, but I would just forget it. The old fox had a clear position and was out of the matter and was left alone. Wu Kang couldn't help but wonder, the reason why Lao Cui agreed to sweep the gambling was to test Wu Zhaoyi's energy and my weight in Zhaoyi's mind, right?

If the situation is calm, it means that Wu Jie can be a backer. If the court punishes me, Lao Cui will also protect me from being safe and extort wine stocks. But old fox, your wishful thinking is destined to be unsuccessful. I am a time traveler and know the direction of history. I don’t need Wu Jie to take action this time!

He ended his imagination with a smile, and saw that it was time to dinner, got up and left the study. He stretched his waist at the door, shook his head and yawned.

Suddenly the door opened, and I felt my eyes dark, and then with a bang, my face was hit by the door panel. I had a star on my eyes, my steps staggered, and a heat flowed out of my nose. I heard Cui Xiaoqing shout again: "Erlang is bleeding, come quickly..."

Lying on the Taishi chair, his face parallel to the roof, his hands patted his forehead, and his tears fell: "I said Cui Xiaoqing, are we so kind of girls? What are you doing in a hurry? What are you doing? Hurry up and see if my nose is crooked?"

Cui Xiaoqing was bleeding from his nose while bruising herself: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't be angry with you, and I shouldn't ignore you. You are the same. A man is a real man, can't he take the initiative to apologize? A childish man, in order to make me worry, to make me take the initiative to find you, as for offending the Du family, as for making such a big noise?"

"How do you know... No, absolutely not, I'm not that naive," Wu Kang stood up as if he was trampled on his tail and said in a furious manner: "Gambling is like drug use, both social cancers and will harm the people. We must crack down on them."

"Okay, okay, lie down and you're bleeding again." Cui Xiaoqing broke his head and continued to wipe the blood. The servant brought the copper basin. Xiaoqing wrung out the hot towel and put it on his forehead. She sighed and said, "Anyway, it's all my fault. Lu Liuniang, that vixen, we'll get married soon, she's going to interfere, she's shameless!"

Wu Kang thought it was not good to scold people, so he didn't dare to defend himself, so he simply shut up.

Cui Xiaoqing continued to nag: "What should I do now? The saint loves Princess Gaoyang very much. It depends on the owner to beat the dog. My cousin helps you with good words. Even if the saint does not sue the crime, he will reject the recommendation. Our recorder will have no hope, and he will throw 10% of the wine stocks in vain, hey..."

Wu Kang did not comment, looked at his entangled little face and comforted him: "Xiaoqing doesn't have to worry. The recorder cannot escape from military affairs. The saint will not hate me, and will pay more attention to me. No need for my cousin to do it, let's do it yourself, come over..."

After a whisper, Jiu Niang was stunned first, then her face flushed, and she held her chin with her hands excitedly, "It's great, it's too time. Erlang resists the pressure and cannot release people in advance. When the imperial edict arrives, we will settle the accounts with the Du family. Du Mei's toad has also been entangled with me. You have to vent your anger for your daughter-in-law... your wife!"

"That's a must, the toad wants to eat swan meat." Wu Kang swore faithfully, feeling that his nose was bleeding, and he sat upright and said, "But I don't want to do it too much. I don't want to weave that crime, it's too lethal."

"You are kind to a woman! You must be beaten to death when dealing with the enemy. How many times have you said you, but you just don't listen." Jiu Niang rolled her eyes and started talking again.

The voice became smaller and smaller, and suddenly she smiled playfully: "Erlang, we have been in a cold war for seven days, and they want to... hurt each other."

"Oh, I'm afraid you won't succeed, come and fight!"

After a while, it was dark, and hurried footsteps sounded outside, and smoke came: "My husband is not good...ah! Si Cang Sun joins the army, Si Hu Sun joins the army, Si Bing Qin joins the army, and he is driving a car, blocking the door of our house."

He must have come to get money, and there is no door either. Wu Kang wiped his saliva and snorted coldly: "A few old foxes colluded to trick me into slaughtering me. There are risks and no one to see people, and there are benefits to rush. In less than ten days and half a month, I can't take away the money, so I said I was not here and sent them away."

Ruyan turned around, saluted Jiuniang first, and then reported in a low voice: "No, Mr. Nu Nu said that they don't believe it. Qin Zongjun said that when you first went to the yamen, he sent someone to follow him and knew that you were at home."

Wu Kang was dumbfounded. Old Qin was not a big deal. For the sake of two hundred stakes, he sent someone to follow me.

Jiu Niang gathered her hair and blinked and said, "Erlang is right. You can't give money easily, so that they can't make them feel itchy for a few days. Otherwise, leave from the back door and go to my house to hide. When the imperial edict arrives, they will not dare to ask for money either."

This idea is good. It can both avoid debts and be kind to each other. Wu Kang immediately agreed and pulled her away. Before he could leave the room, Xiao Cui hurried over: "You are not good, Mr. Si Gong joins the army and blocks the back door of our house."

"My husband, I'm very good, don't talk nonsense." Wu Kang glared at her and frowned. The four old foxes don't even have any face for money! I know your wishful thinking. In your opinion, I offended Princess Gaoyang, at least I will lose my post and dismiss the office. When the official documents of the resignation come, your money will be wasted.

First, if you lose your official position and ask for money when you lose your official position, you will not take any damage to your reputation. Second, even if you are shameless, you will not be able to make money. I hide in the governor's mansion, and you dare not make trouble for Lao Cui; third, I think I want to be dependent on the debt, but other colleagues give it to Lao Wei, too, why not give it to you?

The most important point is that 200 guan is not a small amount. The six major military officers are under the eighth rank, with an annual salary of 18 guan, a salary of 60 hu of rice, and a subsidy of 7 guan, which is a total of about 37 guan. The salary of 200 guan is nearly six years, which can make the old fox lose face.

I really want to beat the gentleman with the heart of a villain. I really want to beat them. I am following the donkey. The more fierce I am, the less I give it. Jiu Niang is right. When the imperial edict arrives, even if you give it to you, you will not be brave. Now the back door is blocked, what should I do?

At this time, Wu Lan reported that several soldiers took the lead, but the servants dared not stop him, and had already rushed in. Wu Kang was about to go wild, looking at the wall of the high courtyard, the ladder at home was not that high.

Just as he was leaping his feet with hatred, Xiao Cui said timidly: "A few days ago, there was a hole in the east wall, and there was always a dog hiding our house. I let the two men block it. He happened to be sick and didn't have time, so why not get into it..."

The atmosphere was instantly stiff, and Jiu Niang stared directly, and murderous aura squirted over. Xiao Cui was scared and shivered with her head down. Wu Kang was also angry. This unlucky girl, so she can't speak. Just say there is a hole. What should I do if I explain so clearly?

There was nothing else to do. At this point, Jiu Niang gave the order, the girls were in a hurry to change him to black night clothes. When they arrived in front of the dog cave, their hearts were very cold. The dignified eighth-rank official was so terrible to get into the dog cave in order to avoid debts.

He sighed and gritted his teeth, first sent the knife out, and leaned his head and stooped. He hugged his shoulders with both hands and drilled his upper body, but his butt was stuck. Wu Kang screamed, and the girls were in a hurry, holding his legs and pressing his butt out.

The block was stuck tightly, and I couldn't push it out and couldn't pull it back. Jiu Niang stomped her feet in anger and complained that he was big. This matter was so scheming, I didn't want to be big. While I was in a tangle, two bodyguards came over and saw the situation in front of me and were silly. What did the boss do when he was drilling into a dog hole?

Wu Kang cursed: "You want to vent your anger? Pull me out quickly! Oh, be gentle... You two bastards, do you want to hurt me to death? Don't push the inside... You two pry off the brick that stuck to me with a knife. Be careful... don't hurt me."

After being guilty, he finally got out of the dog hole and stepped on the dog shit. He quietly poked his head out of the corner of the wall. Several ox carts were parked at the gate, and there was no sign of the old fox. He probably broke in. He couldn't help but look contempt. As long as you can't see me, you have no choice. Want money? There is no one at all!

Leaving the road and going to the governor's mansion, we took a detour to the governor's mansion. The three of them had too big a goal. If the whereabouts were exposed, the shameless old fox would not say he could make trouble for Lao Cui. After a moment of consideration, he ordered the bodyguard: "Don't follow me, give me the hat."

The bodyguard did not dare to disobey, so he took off his hat and quickly left the alley. Wu Kang hung a horizontal knife around his waist, wore a hat and tied a rope, turned his head and looked around, but he did not notice any abnormality. Cui Xiaoqing was entangled by the old fox and could not get rid of her body for a while. Let's go back to the governor's mansion first.

I made up my mind to take a step. When I was about to leave the alley, a figure flashed in front of me. I saw that it was a woman, and I was still very familiar. I quickly searched my mind and immediately widened my eyes. Why did Chen Shuozhen's seven fairies appear in Wuzhou?

He quickly ran out of the alley, disappeared into another alley, and ran over and followed quietly. Half a minute later, he realized that the other party had discovered me and deliberately took me to somewhere. Or the plan was made, and he lured me to take the bait.

There are only two ways, either follow or bring reinforcements and search the whole city. The brain turns quickly and decides to continue to follow. The cost of moving troops and searching the city is high and you may find nothing.

Wu Kang sneered, "I am not a weak scholar, but a ancestor of murderers. I want to see if you are using any tricks, and you can't escape."
Chapter completed!
