No taboos

Chapter 135: The Fight Between the Two Yamen (asking for monthly tickets)

Xu Yuan smiled awkwardly: "Why did I deliberately get rid of you?"

Lang Xiaoba was just expressing his attitude. He didn't follow them yesterday out of spite, and as a result, Xu Yuan and the other two didn't come back all night!

Lang Xiaoba was scolded by Zhu Sili.

In fact, Zhu Sili knew that Lang Xiaoba had gone back yesterday, and he did not order Lang Xiaoba to follow the four people again.

Strictly speaking, Lang Xiaoba and Zhu Sili each bear half of the responsibility.

But how could Lang Xiaoba dare to argue with the inspector about the division of responsibilities?

So I did this today. If you don't let me follow you, you're going to force me to death.

Xu Yuan pushed the sword back and handed over the breakfast: "Have you eaten? You and Yu Yunhang should eat something together."

Lang Xiaoba didn't eat it. He took it and was about to open it when Xu Yuan suddenly turned to Fu Jingyu and said, "Have you heard that Dan Xiu has a recipe that can turn a person into a drug animal with just one pill?"

Fu Jingyu was a kind and honest gentleman. He nodded seriously and started to discuss: "I know. This recipe is really against the harmony of nature. The alchemist who first researched this recipe is really crazy."

Lang Xiaoba was speechless.

Are you going to let me eat it or not?

Lang Xiaobay was angry and gave all the breakfast to Yu Yunhang.

"I'm not hungry!"

Yu Yunhang chuckled and took it to enjoy it alone: "This bun is good. The meat filling is half fat and half lean, chopped finely, mixed with green onions, and it is fragrant and oily..."

Lang Xiaoba was so angry that hot air was coming out of his nostrils.

"Okay, let's go in first." Xu Yuan: "I wonder if the Champa Office found any useful clues yesterday?"

Today, only Zhu Sili was in the office, and Lin Zijin was still nowhere to be seen.

Zhu Sili treated Xu Yuan with a businesslike attitude today: "Last night, the entire office was filled with righteous indignation. The officers spontaneously went on night patrol and killed a total of 31 evil spirits..."

Zhu Sili summarized the numbers, but Xu Yuan still asked, "Are there any clues in the case?"

"No further findings have been made."

"Where's Lord Lin? Is he still busy with other official business?"

"This inspector doesn't know!"

"Are there any remains from the scenes of those previous cases? Let's go take a look."

"It was all cleaned up before dark."

Xu Yuan waved his hand: "Forget it, let's go find clues ourselves."

Zhu Sili didn't stop him.

Xu Yuan and his companions came out and just walked out of the gate of Champa Office. Not long after they walked down the street, they saw two groups of people confronting and arguing at the intersection in front of them.

The side with more people is the captain of the Quhui Division.

Xu Yuan saw that they were "familiar people", the team Zhou Leizi and his team were in last night.

The smaller group consisted of only two people, also wearing uniforms, but they were not from the Exorcism Division, but from the Mountain and River Division.

The two men were riding horses with cold and arrogant expressions, pointing at the captains of the Exorcism Bureau with their whips.

Zhou Leizi was so angry that he couldn't stand it any longer. He broke free from the inspector's hand and rushed forward to grab the whip and pull him down: "You bastard, you dare to bully our Extermination Department?"

The whip turned deftly, and the tip of the whip hit Zhou Leizi's wrist.

Snapped!
Zhou Leizi held his wrist and screamed, and his wrist swelled up quickly, visibly!
The inspector's face changed drastically. He stepped forward and shouted angrily, "We are all working for the court. You spoke rudely before, and now you are so cruel. Do you really think that there is no one in my Anti-Filth Bureau?" The person who hurt people was fat and looked like a martial artist.

Fu Jingyu whispered in Xu Yuan's ear: "Judging from their official uniforms, these two are inspectors of the Mountain and River Division."

The organization of the Shanhe Division is roughly the same as that of the Quwu Division.

"You have people in the Extermination Division, so why not find that evil spirit in the city? If you can't, our Mountain and River Division will intervene!"

"How dare you!" the inspector was furious.

The three yamen didn't like each other, and there were many open and covert struggles.

If the Champa Bureau fails to catch the evil spirit and is intervened by the Mountain and River Bureau, it will be a real loss of face.

From now on, not only will the Champa Office be unable to hold its head up in front of the Mountain and River Office in the city, but it will also be drowned in the spit of other offices within the Quhui Office.

The fat inspector from the Mountain and River Division turned his horse and sneered, "This is not up to you! It's been several months, and you still can't catch that thing. Humph, is it true that you can't catch it, or do you just not want to catch it?"

"You're talking nonsense!" The inspector was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of golden pills, but he hit the opponent's horse's leg instead of hurting him directly.

After hitting the horse's leg, you can still argue that it was because you couldn't stand the people from the Mountain and River Bureau being arrogant on horseback.

There is still room for improvement.

If he really hit someone, it would be a street brawl between the Shanhe Division and the Quwu Division, which would have a very bad impact. At the very least, he would be removed from his position as inspector.

The fat inspector of the Mountain and River Division sneered.

The golden ball shot out with a whoosh, a layer of white light appeared on the horse's body, and the golden ball was bounced back with a puff!

On the saddle, there was a copy of Wen Xiu's calligraphy floating up, with three solemn characters written in Weibei style: "Don't tear your clothes."

The examiner is an eighth-rate alchemy practitioner, but the golden pill cannot even break this post!
The post is at least written by an eighth-rate writer.

When Xu Yuan saw the captains of the Quhui Division before, with the ninth-rate calligraphy of "腾云" and "程风" pasted on their horses' legs, he thought the Quhui Division was rich and powerful. Now, compared with the Shanhe Division... it was like a local rich man in the countryside meeting an old nobleman from the capital.

The Canal Yamen is indeed the richest in the entire Ming Dynasty!
Beside Xu Yuan, Fu Jingyu had already strode forward: Now that such a thing has happened, how can we just ignore it?
"The responsibility of the Mountain and Sea Division is only to ensure the smooth flow of the canal. They have no right to interfere in any other evil affairs.

As for the cases in the city right now, as long as the Extermination Department has not formally requested help from the Mountain and Sea Department, you have no right to interfere!"

Fu Jingyu's way of intervening is to seriously clarify with the other party the scope of authority of both parties.

The fat inspector had already noticed Xu Yuan and his group, and of course he also saw the deputy inspector's uniform on Xu Yuan.

"As long as it's something that's detrimental to the canal, my Shanhaisi will be able to take care of it!" The fat captain still sat arrogantly on his horse, lightly tapping the whip in his hand, showing a rather condescending attitude.

"How does this case hinder the operation of the canal?" Fu Jingyu asked seriously.

The fat inspector did not answer, but pointed his whip at Xu Yuan and Fu Jingyu: "You are the ones from the Southern Office, right? I'll give you three more days. If you still can't catch that thing, my Mountain and River Division will take over!

Master, I mean what I say!
If you don't believe me, just slack off for three days and see if I can snatch this case from you!"

After he finished speaking, he snorted again and squeezed his legs against the horse's belly: "Gee!"

As soon as the horse moved, there was a "bang" sound in his ears, which startled the two horses and made them neigh. They stood up and jumped around in panic, almost throwing off the two inspectors of the Mountain and River Division, and then ran away desperately!

Of course, this explosion was caused by Xu Yuan using the inner elixir of artillery powder.

Xu Yuan temporarily used the fire in his stomach to separate out a little medicinal pill the size of a grain of rice.

He infused some of the inner alchemy properties into it, quietly controlled it to pass over the ground, then rose up and lurked beside the horse's ear.

It's like setting off a big firecracker, it doesn't actually cause much damage.
