Chapter 59: The situation in Linjiang Prefecture

Spring of the fifth year of Qingli.

A great turmoil occurred in Linjiang City's Jinyiwei from top to bottom. However, strange to say, this turmoil started at the Hundred Households Office in Nancheng, but it happened to be the first to end.

Furukawa, the former Baihu Office of the Nancheng Hundred Households Office, was instrumental in putting down the turmoil and was transferred to Kyoto to take up a post. The vacancy left by the Hundred Household Office was taken over by Gu Zhan, the former general banner of the East Academy. In a short period of time, great changes also occurred in the Nancheng Hundred Household Office.

Personnel transfer.

Some people retire due to injuries, some are promoted due to merit,

At the same time, we also vigorously recruit new substitutes during this period.

The order of Nancheng has not been affected.

On the contrary, because of the destruction of the Tianshui Gang, the order in Nancheng is better than ever.

After Gu Zhan took office, he implemented a special service system and invited many people from all walks of life in Nancheng to become non-staff members of the Jinyiwei. They were highly respected in Nancheng and were somewhat like a family between the government and the people.

In fact, this special service system is the tradition of Jinyiwei.

At the beginning of the founding of the Xia Dynasty, the Jinyiwei had a special service system. In order to ease the conflict between the Jianghu and the government, some well-known Jianghu people were invited to become non-staff members of the Jinyiwei to mediate between the Jianghu and the government.

However, in the past one or two hundred years,

This system was gradually abandoned, and only a few places still retain it.

On the surface, the government said it was adjusting measures to local conditions.

In fact, it is because the Jin Yiwei has become more and more decadent and their prestige is getting worse and worse. As a result, the Jin Yiwei in many places do not have the prestige of some Jianghu sects.

In recruiting special agents under such circumstances, Jin Yiwei has no way to take the initiative, which is to recruit a legitimate ancestor for himself in disguise. Similarly, Jin Yiwei has lost its prestige, and those in the world are not willing to bear the name of the imperial eagle dog.

People laugh.

This time, Linjiang County Nancheng Hundred Household Office once again implemented this system, but it was very smooth, and all the famous people in Nancheng actively joined.

Of course, no one would admit that the reason why they joined happily was because the sponsor Gu Zhan put two things in front of them, an official document and a knife.

This kind of two-choice question is still very simple to solve.



Nancheng, Baihusuo, main courtyard.

Commander-in-Chief Malang came to Gu Zhan's room with a bunch of official documents and said, "Sir, this is the information that the special service camp has reported back in the past few days."

Gu Zhan flipped through it casually and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"With you personally watching over them, they won't dare to violate the rules." Ma Lang said, "After all, there are many people in various gangs receiving salaries from our Jinyiwei. It's easy to cause trouble for them."

Gu Zhan nodded slightly.

This special service system is actually a win-win cooperation method.

Jin Yiwei needs the major gangs to actively cooperate and move all their bad things underground, and get rid of edge cases and so on. Jin Yiwei also turns a blind eye.

The order in the city can run normally,

Jianghu gangs can also, to a large extent, avoid the troubles that the government had to deal with in the past.

Of course, the prerequisite for this cooperation is

It must be dominated by Jinyiwei, otherwise, it will be completely ineffective.

And today's Nancheng Jinyiwei fully meets this condition. The major gangs took pictures of Gu Zhan in the name of the God of Killing. They were already a little worried about what policies Gu Zhan would implement after he came to power. This special service system is the best of both worlds. Hello, hello, hello, everyone.

After all, Nancheng today is different from before.

In the past, there were 900 Furukawa families in the Nancheng Jinyiwei, and they were also very powerful for a while. But at that time, there was a Tianshui Gang in Nancheng that could compete with the Jinyiwei. It is different now. The Tianshui Gang has been destroyed, and the major gangs are confronting each other. No one is dominant, and there is no one.

No one can compete with Jinyiwei.

Therefore, in this case, the introduction of the special service system can not only allow the Jinyiwei who have just recovered after the turmoil to stabilize the situation in Nancheng as soon as possible, but also stabilize the minds of the major gangs in Nancheng, so that both sides can get what they need.

"By the way," Gu Zhan asked, "Is the Gong Chuan Pavilion over at Qianhu Institute open?"

"Not yet," Ma Lang said: "Qianhu Office is now half-closed. Only a few counselors are in charge temporarily, and the others are temporary agents from the government. Chuangong Pavilion, Bingbi Room and other places are all urgent.

It is closed and will not be opened until a new thousand households arrive."

Gu Zhan nodded slightly.

This was something he had expected. Just like the Nancheng Hundred Household Office, during the period before he officially took office, except for basic departments such as patrol and prison, all other places were closed.

"The new Qianhu...have you heard the news?" Gu Zhan asked.

"Yes," Malang said, "When I went to Qianhu Office to submit official documents today, Counselor Chen asked me to tell you that the newly appointed Qianhu came from Yunzhou Town Fusi.

There are several hundred households, but the whereabouts of these people are a bit mysterious. They only have one-way contact with the government office, and no one knows when they will arrive."

Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked: "Only contact the government office, specifically, is it with the prefect, the county magistrate, or the inspection department?"

Ma Lang asked doubtfully: "What's the difference?"

"Of course there is a difference." Gu Zhan said: "In terms of government offices, who doesn't know that the first-in-command, Magistrate Yang, and the second-in-command, Magistrate Wu, are fighting like fire and water. Magistrate Yang is a wandering official, appointed by the imperial court, focusing on political achievements, while Magistrate Wu represents the local area.

In the aristocratic family, the two of them have always been fighting openly and secretly.

As for Jin Yiwei, as one of the giants in the government, both of them are keeping a close eye on him and want to get him on his side. So, do you think it makes any difference who the new Qian Hu contacts?"

Ma Lang suddenly said: "No wonder the Qianhu Station seems a little depressed these days. Everyone is walking in a hurry and frowning. It seems that they are also worried about this matter."

Gu Zhan nodded and said: "When Luo Bingsheng was here, he was backed by all the major wealthy families in Linjiang Prefecture. Although they were not as good as the aristocratic families, together they could not be underestimated, so they could barely remain neutral. Now, this newcomer

It’s hard to say for thousands of households.”

Malang thought for a moment and said, "Sir, if you don't tell me, I haven't thought so much. After hearing what you said, I suddenly felt that although the old guy Luo Bingsheng relies on his old age, he is still quite powerful. He can still do it under such circumstances.

keep neutral."

Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes and said: "This can be regarded as his way to die. Otherwise, Brother Gu would not have been so easy to deal with Luo Bingsheng. Both the government and the aristocratic family just stood aside and did not touch their interests.

On the one hand, the reason is also because they are also happy to see the results, whether it is Luo Bingsheng’s downfall or weakening, it will be a good thing for them!”

Malang's face was a little solemn and he said: "Well, sir, according to what you said, we hundreds of households are afraid that we can't avoid it. If we want to stay out of the dispute between the two giants, it will be a little difficult for us!"

"there is always a solution to a problem!"
