Daming primary school students

Chapter 257 What can you get?
Pan Zhen, named Shi'an, entered the palace during the Chenghua Dynasty, served as eunuch guarding many places, and also returned to the capital to take charge of the internal officials.

Because of old age and sickness, and not adapting to the northern climate, eunuch Pan obtained an imperial order and sent him to Nanjing for recuperation, and by the way, he served as the defensive eunuch in Nanjing.

Emperor Jiajing's character was very suspicious, he was afraid that others would fool him, and he didn't trust the group of eunuchs who surrounded him every day.

Therefore, the power of eunuchs in the Jiajing Dynasty was not as good as at other times.Eunuch Pan is here to provide for the elderly in Nanjing, so he usually keeps a low profile.

But being low-key doesn't mean you're a rookie, Commander Xu and his son thought together.

Qin Dewei felt his mouth was dry just now, so he drank a few sips of tea unhurriedly, while admiring the faces of Commander Xu and his son, he recalled an impressive passage in his previous life.

"The giant thief in Nangong County changed his name to Fan Shiyong, and Zhu Chao joined the guarding eunuch Pan Zhen's mansion as a boy servant. He formed a gang with the real servant Ma Ji and others. He gathered dozens of people who fled and plundered along the river. The officials were ordered to be strict. The capture and suppression will be restricted, and Pan Zhen will be dealt with on the day he returns to Beijing."

The guarding eunuch Pan Zhen in this text refers to the Nanjing guarding eunuch, so this is really an impressive and strange case.

The Jiangyang thief changed his name, sneaked into the home of a Nanjing garrison eunuch and became a servant, and then went out to plunder along the river again, which sounds incredible and unbelievable.

So Xu Weigong didn't even get rid of the bandits. In a sense, it's justifiable. Who would have thought that the bandits were hiding in the garrison eunuch's mansion?

Not to mention Xu Weigong, even Commander Xu, father and son, couldn't believe it when they heard the words "defensive eunuch" come out of Qin Dewei's mouth.Are you Qin Dewei really joking?
Qin Dewei compared the father and son for a long time, and came to a conclusion that Xu Lao San's Yan Yi is a little bit higher than Xu Lao Commander.

"Hahahaha!" Qin Dewei laughed a few times: "I just made the most extreme assumption, and exercise your tolerance, Master Xu!"

Commander Xu breathed a sigh of relief unknowingly, "Brother Qin, your thinking is really good, but don't scare people like that. I'm old, but I can't stand being scared."

Qin Dewei reminded again: "It's actually very easy to check. I remember that the city gate is registered? Master Xu, go check the books tomorrow and see which important people's goods have entered the city after the time of the previous robberies."

The city of Nanjing is also a capital city, and the gates of each city are not for decoration, there are many regulations.For example, all officials going out and entering the city must register at the city gate, as well as the entry and exit of bulk materials, they must also register at the city gate.

If someone's goods happen to enter the city within two or three days after each looting, there is obviously a problem.

As the general manager of Sanshan Gate, it couldn't be easier for Commander Xu to check the entry and exit records.

He also never expected that the clues were actually hidden in the book that he ignored every day, why didn't he think of it so long ago!

"I'm going to investigate tomorrow, and you can go with me!" Commander Xu said, "I'll discuss with you based on the results after the investigation is over!"

It was getting late, so Qin Dewei didn't go back at night, and the Xu family arranged a guest room for him to rest.

Back in the inner courtyard, Xu Shi'an said to Commander Xu: "Father! Based on what I know about Brother Qin, he may not be trying to scare people, but he may be telling the truth."

"Shut up!" Commander Xu went back to the room with a heavy heart.

In the early morning of the next day, Commander Xu took Qin Dewei to the Sanshan Gate, moved out the registers that had been in the classroom for nearly two months, and then picked a specific day to read them.

With just a few dates, it was quick to look up, but every time Commander Xu saw the registration records of the "First Team of Inner Garrison Supplies", the registrants were either Fan Shiyong or Zhu Chao.

Seeing these two names, Qin Dewei knew it better, and it was a good fit.It was all speculation at first, and there is still the possibility of guessing wrong, but now it can be confirmed that it is correct.

Putting down the register, Commander Xu felt that his hands were still shaking. He wanted to drink some tea to ease his mood, but he couldn't even hold the teacup steadily.

It's really related to the guarding eunuch!This, this, this.
Commander Xu, who had no idea at all, subconsciously looked at Qin Dewei, but saw that the young man's face remained unchanged, as if nothing serious happened, and he was even thoughtful.

My little master Qin!I asked you to come here, I asked you to help out with ideas, but you threw a big bomb!

Qin Dewei spoke first: "Master Xu! Only you and I know this secret now, what do you think?"

Commander Xu only felt that his mind was like a ball of paste, and smiled wryly, "I don't know what I'm thinking either!"

Qin Dewei first said: "Actually, it is reasonable to say that eunuch Pan must not know about this matter. He is a Nanjing garrison eunuch. If he wants to make money, he has a way to get rich, so why not take huge risks to rob?
Therefore, Eunuch Pan would not protect these thieves, let alone do some wrong things for the thieves. "

Then he said to Commander Xu: "Now it's up to Mr. Xu whether you have the courage to do something.

If you have the courage, you may reap great credit and be promoted to a real third-rank commander, and Duo Enyin's hundred households will also be added to thousands of households.

And after the garrison eunuch was dismounted, with his supreme prestige and strong qualifications in the army, he might be promoted to the governor's mansion of the five armies in a few years. "

"Of course." Qin Dewei changed the subject: "If you, Mr. Xu, don't want to show up, then we'll keep the secret in our hearts and pretend nothing happened."

All choices depend on Master Xu himself. All Qin Dewei can do is to tell Master Xu as much information as possible and let him make his own judgment.

Originally, Qin Dewei could conceal the real situation, first to lure Commander Xu to do it, and then there was no way back, so Commander Xu had no choice but to follow him to the end.

But this kind of deceitful technique is not suitable for one's own people, and it will inevitably lead to resentment from the old commander afterwards. Qin Dewei gave up after thinking about it, and decided to be honest with Commander Xu.

Commander Xu pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Qin Dewei, can you tell the truth, what good will it do you? What can you get?"

Qin Dewei smiled and said: "Master Xu, if you dare to lift the cover, then I will find out about eunuchs bullying the people, and then go to the inner garrison office to plead for the people. After all, I am also a local scholar, and I should speak out when I see injustice." !"

Commander Xu: "."

Could it be that you are not playing the same way as the old man?
Qin Dewei has already made a plan: "First, this is an opportunity for me to build up my reputation. Currently, my reputation is in poetry and literature, and I lack political reputation.

For scholars like us, is there a better way to gain reputation than defeating high-ranking eunuchs?This is an honor that can last a lifetime.

Next time I want to find another eunuch with such a big handle, it will be difficult!It is even harder to fight and gain political reputation!

Second, this is a huge boost to personal image. The image of fighting eunuchs is still very useful among scholars and civil servants, and it can be regarded as accumulating one's own capital.

Third, the huge prestige will also create a halo of protection. If anyone in the Nanjing officials wants to target me in the future, he will flatter the eunuch and help the eunuch to make a fool of himself!

Fourth, with such a political aura, next year's county school year examination, you can get the care of a great master and be promoted to the rank of a catering student, so that you are qualified to participate in the county examination, which is very important.

Don't forget, the great master became famous only when he opposed the eunuchs to suffer the imperial staff during the Zhengde Dynasty, and he was ranked in the Qingliu.

He has such a burden of personality, this is his political opinion, so when I encounter a fight with eunuchs, will he promote me in order to maintain the personality? "

Commander Xu is speechless, so in your eyes, the guarding eunuch is the bank counter where you can withdraw money?Are you not afraid of dead flowers?
