Chapter 4 The Truth (2)

The method is very simple and easy to think of, but the difficulty of execution is quite high, which is not something that ordinary people can do. Of course, it also requires an opportunity. Without this opportunity, it is impossible to be simple or smart.

The opportunity was that the second phase of the First Prison in Beijing was started, and craftsmen were recruited from the outside, of course, on the ground, and it was impossible for the heroes underground to recruit craftsmen. The ground project was huge, and most craftsmen in the court had lost or changed their careers. Moreover, there was not only the prison project, so the craftsmen were in a tight position, so they had to order the craftsmen to be transferred from several identities around the capital. This gave Xu Rongrong a chance and a chance to send people to the First Prison.

Of course, the secrets are concerned, and the craftsmen still need to be strictly examined. People with intentions cannot be allowed to get in. The four "A, B, C, and D" built in the first phase of the project have been put into use. The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple and other yamen slowly transferred some serious criminals and important criminals to be taken here for care. There are many thieves and vicious people in it. Of course, there are also officials involved in Wei Yi. These crimes will not be killed, and they cannot be picked on their shoulders or raised their hands. The exile of the border is purely to cause trouble for the border, and Zhu Yinglong has long planned to abolish the exile.

The law is that exile is labor reform and political education. These people were also concentrated and imprisoned in the first prison for political prisoners. There are two special prisoners. One is Lan Lin, who has changed from the third floor of the dark prison to an ordinary separate cell. The second is Hai Lanzhu, who was caught by Wu Sangui. Her identity is too special and cannot reveal any information. Therefore, she was detained on the first floor of the dark prison by Zhu Yinglong. Moreover, there are many special uses after the prison is completed. Therefore, the confidentiality work here is extremely strict. Of course, the management and supervision of craftsmen are naturally very strict.

The second phase of the project built three identical prison buildings, with a construction period of three months. Nearly a thousand craftsmen were drawn from several prefectures and counties around the capital. Xu Rongrong arranged nearly a hundred innocent people to get in. Of course, they could not bring any items in, because the inspectors did not even let go of each of these craftsmen's hair. All the tools were provided by the court. They were collected before work and returned after work. Whoever was missing would be taken away immediately. If they were forgotten or remedy, they would be detained immediately until the lost tools were found. If they could not be found, they would face six months in prison. If they were found, they would be expelled from the prison immediately.

Of course, such a severe punishment system will inevitably have a generous reward. At least in the past three months, they will receive a far three times more reward than working outside, but there are only some more constraints, and these constraints are not unacceptable, at most they will be psychologically unpleasant.

Although Xu Rongrong arranged nearly 100 people to enter the First Prison as a craftsman, she did not know how strict the management of the First Prison was. The various management systems of the First Prison had long exceeded everyone's imagination. First Prison's more than 100 people had secret ways to recognize each other, but they were not from the same prefecture and county, and were dispersed and organized in different working groups. The labor intensity was not high, but the arrangement was quite compact and militarized. It was very difficult for these people to gather together to discuss. Sometimes they could only communicate with their eyes. Therefore, even if there were internal supporters, the mobs who had not integrated in the exam seemed to be a bit whimsical.

Xu Rongrong has done her best to switch Lan Lin from the third floor of the Dark Prison to an ordinary cell on the ground. In her opinion, this is an excellent opportunity. If she missed this opportunity, I am afraid that Lan Lin would never see the sunshine of freedom in her lifetime, and she would never have the chance to see her father again, unless she told the dog emperor this secret and asked her to lock them up together directly.

Of course, Xu Rongrong was not ignorant of the situation in the First Prison. On the contrary, she knew a lot. The warden Ma Jie was born in the secret residence and was a very low-key person. Before he was appointed as the warden of the First Prison, he was just a small minister in the Ministry of Works. However, no one dared to be arrogant in front of this small minister. Even the officials of the Ministry of Works treated him very well.

Speaking of which, Ma Jie's identity is also extraordinary. He was one of the five gentlemen brought back from Suzhou by Zhu Yinglong. Compared with Yan Peiwei who was prosperous in the army and Zhou Wenyuan, who held the power of defense and secret intelligence in the capital, there was also Yang Nianru, who was respected by Concubine Tian and was still the boss of Yang Yi, and Chen Yang, who was fiddling with firearms all day in Wang Gongchang with a group of Yang Yi. He was the most low-key one. He liked to lock himself in the house whenever he had time. He was the chief designer of the First Prison in Beijing. All the information of the government, including various exquisite locks (doors and people locked) were from his work. Ma Jie was not good at speaking, and was a very principled and silent person. Although he had never said anything loyal to him, since the construction of the First Prison, Zhu Yinglong had already established his identity as the warden of the First Prison.

Anyone knows that he is the emperor's absolute confidant. Otherwise, how could such a position that seems to be equal to the same vacancies but actually hides infinite power? Although the warden's rank is not high and is only a fifth-rank, his treatment is the same as that of the third-rank minister, and his importance is self-evident.

Xu Rongrong would not be stupid enough to buy Ma Jie. If she did this, she might as well find Zhu Yinglong directly. Ma Jie was loyal and had a strong mind, but his two deputy soldiers were different from him. Xu Rongrong never thought about it, because she didn't even know who this person was. Even she had only seen her insider in the dark prison twice, and it was still far away. It was hard to see her on weekdays. She couldn't find anyone even if she wanted to bribe and use it. However, Cao Yongzuo, the deputy warden who managed the foreign police system, was not mysterious. He was originally the Censor of Shaanxi and Gansu Daodao of the Censorate, and was recommended by Yang He, Minister of Justice, to serve as an outside of the prison guard system in the First Prison of the Capital City. Although the deputy warden of the police, although he had not been promoted, his treatment reached a higher level. However, Cao Yongzuo was good at everything, and he was honest in his official position, and he was quite talented. However, this person was a bit arrogant and looked down on Ma Jie, who was not from a Jinshi. Ma Jie was originally much lower than him, but he suddenly rushed to him. Under such a person, he naturally felt a little insignificant. Of course, he would not regard Ma Jie's exquisite design as a great achievement, but this dissatisfaction could only be in his heart. After all, Ma Jie was an old man in the emperor's residence, and he was a close confidant. In order to show that he was noble and did not flatter his superiors, he was always in business, and his attitude towards Ma Jie was lukewarm.

Xu Rongrong learned this from the inside, taking advantage of Cao Yongzuo's desire to squeeze out Ma Jie's own position, and then he ordered the inside to secretly win over some people to support Cao Yongzuo, secretly testing a conspiracy that could make Ma Jie lose his position as warden. Of course, this conspiracy cannot hurt himself. In the first prison, Ma Jie's loss of office can only start from the prisoner. The incident is too small and cannot shake Ma Jie's position at all. It is too heavy. He will be implicated and even the kind that wants to make Long Yan angry.

Under the instigation of several so-called confidants, Lan Lin was brought up from the third floor of the Dark Prison to an ordinary cell. Cao Yongzuo felt that the opportunity had come. In fact, how could he know Lan Lin's identity as a small Taoist censor before? Every time Lan Rong came to visit the prison, she went straight to the Dark Prison, and Ma Jie accompanied him personally. These were royal secrets. How could he know?

As a result, because of his ignorance and the wonderful taste of being a warden, Cao Yongzuo was unconsciously taken as a gun, and even implicated Yang He, the Minister of Justice who recommended him to be the deputy warden, and made Yang He bear the charge of "not knowing people and using people inappropriately", which are all later stories.
