Crossing the Ming Dynasty to be the magistrate

Zong Yiyi finally took a sip of the tea, only feeling the fragrance and sweetness, because he himself grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, and he is very fond of sweets on weekdays.When he arrived in the north, he always felt that the diet was a little unsatisfactory, but this tea was very appetizing to him.

So he couldn't help asking: "Where did you buy this tea? Why have you never seen it before?"

The man was slightly surprised and raised his eyes: "Your Excellency, don't you know? This tea was newly delivered from Sichuan, and it was sold out as soon as it was shipped to Beijing. Several times the selling price, I only got some by chance, Mr. Guan knows tea, so I will take it out for you to taste."

Zong Yiyi nodded embarrassingly. In recent days, he has been physically and mentally exhausted by his boss, and he really has no extra energy to catch up with the wave of energy.

While drinking tea and listening to the piano, Zong Yifeng felt that he hadn't been this calm for a long time. He suddenly thought of how when he was young, his parents were loving and loving, and he didn't have to worry about anything. He just had to play silly and crazy every day. happiness.Although he is now an official, it is enough to bluff people by talking about it, but he is really tired of intrigues and intrigues all day long.

The next day, Zong Yiyi went to work absent-mindedly. As soon as he arrived in the department, he saw his colleagues around him blinking. He wanted to stop a question, but everyone seemed to avoid him like a snake.Zong Yiyi laughed at himself, this is the so-called wall down, everyone pushes it, he usually fails enough.

Sure enough, after a while, the Shangguan said that he had something to do with him, and looked at him with a complicated expression after he walked in: "Just now Commander Wan gave an order, saying that he heard that the White Lotus Sect in Shu has been active again in the past few days, and he has reported to the emperor. Ordered to send someone to investigate there, we must find out and catch the mastermind behind the scenes..."

Zong Yipeng knew the subtext of this sentence, that is, if no one is caught, there is no need to return to Beijing.The boss patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "You don't have to feel uncomfortable, you might wait for three to five months, Commander Wan will make the nobleman forget things and forget you, and then I will apply to transfer you back .”

Zong Yiyi shook his head: "Thank you, sir, but you don't need to worry about this matter. You and I know Wantong. If you get involved, I will die."

He has now realized that the land of Shu is also very good, and the tea that he tasted yesterday is said to have been shipped from there, thinking of this, he is still a little eager to try.However, the boss thought that he was just forcing a smile on his face, and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable seeing it, and secretly vowed to let him return to the capital if he had the chance.

Afraid of what would happen if he stayed any longer, Zong Yiyi simply packed up and saluted before setting off on the road.The destination this time is a small city called Mengyang.

"Mengyang..." Zong Yiyi heard about this place before, and at some point, a special kind of toilet paper appeared in Beijing. The paper is not only delicate, but also extremely soft, and the price is not too expensive. It has become popular, after all, eating and drinking is a major event in life.And the production place of this kind of paper is Mengyang.The existence of such things at least shows that the local economic security is not bad, and it is okay to go there for the elderly.

This journey took more than two months, and when Zongyi entered Shu, it was already autumn in the city.As soon as he arrived in Mengyang, he was shocked.

This is a brand new city, with a blue-gray appearance and a majestic appearance.The entire city wall looks extremely tall, with the word Mengyang written on it.The queue at the gate to enter the city is long, the people's clothes are neat and tidy, and there are smiles on their faces. Just looking at the spirit, it feels different from other places.

Zong Yi is naturally privileged as a Jin Yiwei, and he didn't have the patience to queue up, so he went straight to the front and showed his badge.

The gatekeeper only glanced at him and his calves were so frightened that Jin Yiwei was able to stop the child from crying at this time, so he invited him in respectfully, and hurriedly sent someone to notify the county magistrate.

After Zongyi entered the city, he walked to the county government under the leadership of the guards. At this time, he found that the city seemed not as big as he imagined. Not to mention comparing it with the capital, even some small places in the south of the Yangtze River were wider than him. And there are unexpectedly many people in the city.

He asked his question, and the guard explained respectfully: "My lord, the registered population of Mengyang is not large in the first place. We calculated before that the scale of the new city is more than enough now, but it is because the construction was just completed yesterday. In addition to the recent bumper harvest, the county magistrate issued an announcement saying that a celebration would be held, so a large number of outsiders poured in."

Zong Yifeng is also a person who likes to join in the fun, so he was interested in this: "How are you going to celebrate?"

The guard saw him smiling, and felt that Jinyiwei was not as scary as the rumors said, so he let go and said, "There are a lot of events, there are food festivals, flower viewing festivals, and the shops in the city are also discounted these days. Based on Meng Yang’s new play from the best-selling book, after nightfall, the county rents a place to set off fireworks, so you can watch it by yourself without going out... Anyway, it’s really fun.”

Hearing what he said, Zong Yi couldn't help yearning for it. In the past few years, there has been a turmoil in Beijing, and the fight between the princeling party and the Wan Guifei party has become more and more fierce. He hasn't celebrated much for many days. Emperor Mengyang Tiangao is far away. beneficial.

On the other hand, Wen Yu actually received the news early in the morning that Jin Yiwei was coming.As an official of the Ming Dynasty, dealing with factory guards is naturally frightening, but in a modern society, he is afraid and at the same time looks forward to it. After all, this is Jinyiwei!In many romance novels, he can even beat the emperor, prince and prime minister to compete for the male protagonist's career!

Some people around noticed Wen Yu's unnatural excitement, and they were very puzzled.Immediately he expressed his admiration, as expected of an adult, even Jin Yiwei didn't look down on him.

You must know that Jin Yiwei can directly arrest suspects without going through the review of the Ministry of Criminal Justice when handling cases, and has the right to kill first and act later when necessary.In the early years of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, 3 people died in their hands in the case of Hu Weiyong alone!The places he passed by can be described as a veritable bloodbath, but now my lord has no fear at all!What a role model for my generation!

Unaware that he had gained another round of brainless fans, Wen Yu paced excitedly, finally looking forward to it.

When he saw the person, Wen Yu was really surprised, "Why is this person alone, and looks ordinary, he is not as popular as on TV at all." He murmured in his heart, but the procedures that should be followed still had to be followed, So he bowed his head and saluted.

Zong Yipeng saw his expression clearly, but he misunderstood its meaning. He thought that Mr. Wen probably wanted to make a contribution, relying on the Jin Yiwei to wipe out the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in one fell swoop. He was a little disappointed to see him alone.

Zong Yiyi thought it was funny. Before he came, he had investigated the county magistrate Wen. He was young and it was his first time as an official.That's why I have a good temper. If another person comes, Mr. Wen will suffer a lot.

The two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, and Zong Yifeng asked directly what he was thinking: "When I came here, I saw the lights and festoons in the city preparing for the celebration, and I was really curious. I wonder if my lord will take me to visit with me."

Wen Yu: "...That's of course no problem, but isn't Master Zong coming this time for the White Lotus Sect? Now those three sects are still in prison. Why don't we go and interrogate them first?"

Zong Yiyi smiled and said nothing, slowly picked up the teacup under Wen Yu's suspicious eyes, tasted it, and praised: "Good tea, my lord doesn't know, but now your Sichuan tea is sought after by everyone in Beijing. The little official can't buy it even if he wants to."

Wen Yu understood: "That's easy to say, I'll ask someone to pack a few catties and send it to the adults. If the adults want to drink in the future, just ask."

Zong Yi smiled openly: "In this case, I will be disrespectful."

After drinking tea for a long time and chatting about the customs for a long time, Wen Yu got to the point when he was about to get impatient: "I wonder if Mr. Wen understands the White Lotus Sect?"

Wen Yu said solemnly: "After catching Bai Lian's rebellious party, the officials went to check some things. I can't say that I have a clear understanding of them, but I have a general understanding."

Zong Yiyi shook his head: "Your ones are just fur. Do you know that in recent years, due to the rise of the east and west factories, most of the affairs in the court were stopped by them, and our brothers were sent to various places to track down these gangsters?" Rebel, there are a hundred or eighty members of the White Lotus Sect under my control. Let me put it bluntly, in such a small place as Mengyang, the upper echelon of the White Lotus Sect will not send any important people. Those three probably even The superiors have never seen it before, but they are just fools fooled by evil religions, so it doesn't matter whether they are tried or not."

Hearing what he said, and combining what he had seen and heard, Wen Yu also felt that it made sense, and immediately asked: "Since it is of no value, why bother your lord to go all the way."

"That's the point of your question," Zong Yiyi said with a smile, "Although these three are just young people, according to the consistent practice of the White Lotus Sect, if someone destroys their plan, unless it is someone like our Jin Yiwei They can't afford it, otherwise these people will take action to retaliate. In other words, the main purpose of my visit this time is to protect you, Mr. Wen. "

Hearing what he said, Wen Yu felt a little heavy in his heart. Although he was not afraid, the Wen family was full of women and children. If the White Lotus Sect was so mad that it hurt his relatives, then he would regret it to death.Thinking of this, Wen Yu didn't care about anything else, and told Zong what he was thinking about, then stood up and bowed to him again: "I'm afraid I will trouble you in the future."

Zong Yifeng accepted it frankly: "It's easy to say, I should do my best."

After talking for a while, it was just about time for dinner. Wen Yu knew in advance that Jin Yiwei was coming, so he made careful preparations and left Zong a letter to eat at home, Zong Yiyi readily agreed.

It coincided with the first harvest of sweet potatoes, pumpkins and peppers. Wen Yu provided recipes, ordering the kitchen to prepare baked sweet potatoes with cheese, pumpkin stew, spicy chicken, and boiled fish, which are also popular in modern times.

Zong Yiyi saw it with novelty, and he himself was well-informed, but it was the first time he tasted such a delicacy.As I said before, he is fond of sweets, and the baked sweet potato with cheese is simply not too appetizing for him. If it is not that his stomach can't hold it, he can eat another plate!

Wen Yu could tell from his expression that he was satisfied with the dishes, so he gave a rough overview of the production of sweet potatoes.Although Zong Yipeng didn't have any concept, he could roughly understand the magic of this thing after listening to his description, so he couldn't help being amazed.

Wen Yu said again: "I don't know, the yield of pumpkin is also good, and pepper can also be used as medicine, which has the effect of warming the middle and dispelling cold, lowering the Qi and eliminating food. If these things can be popularized, it will be a great thing for the country and the people. Next I am not a talented official, I have already written a note, and now I am troublesome to deliver it to you."

Zong Yiyi knew that Wen Yu was selling favors to him, so he didn't refuse. Although it was still unknown whether this matter would allow him to return to the capital, at least it would make him appear in front of the emperor, and Wantong would still want to use him in the future Also think about it.It was a matter of family and life, so he couldn't shirk it, so he agreed.

Wen Yu didn't care about these things. He cared more about the safety of his family than getting promoted and making a fortune. Now that the enemy is in the dark, there are too many things that need Zongyi. Let some credit be exchanged for his full help. Very good deal.

After the two had finished their meal, Wen Yu saw that Zong Yiyi hadn't settled down yet, so he simply invited him to live in his home. Wen Yu's abacus slammed, wouldn't it mean that there would be an extra free bodyguard in his home? .

But Zong Yiyi politely refused, saying that he still likes to live alone, and it would be inconvenient to live in someone else's house.

Wen Yu repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay but to no avail, so he could only helplessly let him go.

The author has something to say: Sure enough, writing a novel that travels back to the Ming Dynasty without Jin Yiwei always feels like something is missing...

Now in TV dramas and movies, if it is described that Jin Yiwei generally has both martial arts and good looks, and the existence of the FBI in Ming Dynasty, then some people may have doubts, is the Jin Yiwei in history really so handsome?the answer is of course

Yes! !Jin Yiwei in history is so handsome! !At least this was the case in the early Ming Dynasty, because Jinyiwei was actually Yiluan Division at the beginning. Whenever there were activities, they were responsible for opening umbrellas, clearing the way, and acting as a facade.In other words, a vase.

As a qualified vase, everyone in Jinyiwei is fair and beautiful, tall and tall, and most of them are the children of officials, so they are very popular among women in Beijing.Later, Zhu Yuanzhang needed to deal with Hu Weiyong, so he asked them to fill up their spy skills.Changed his name to Jinyiwei, and monitored the evidence.

Why do we say the early days, because in the early days, Jin Yiwei had to go through selection, and family background, martial arts, and appearance were indispensable.However, in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei mostly became hereditary, and it was inevitable that there would be some crooked melons and cracked dates, which seriously lowered the average appearance!Heartache!

Another interesting thing, I don’t know if you have seen the movie "Xiu Chun Knife". The protagonist Shen Lian actually existed in history and is very legendary. He was originally a Jinshi, but was later transferred to Jinyiwei.He belonged to a big man with both civil and military skills. Later, because of his upright character, he offended the treacherous official Yan Song, was slandered and executed for treason, and was only rehabilitated in the early years of Longqing.
