Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 32 Inspection
There is heaven, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Suzhou is really a good place, with dense rivers, criss-cross boats and bridges, beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, especially the gardens outside the city, which are faintly visible among the mountains and rivers, looking like a poetic picture scroll.

Taichang and his party are now walking slowly among the mountains and rivers outside Suzhou City. The entire team has more than ten carriages carrying people and goods. Everyone is either sitting in the cart or riding on the horse. very comfortable.

At this time, Wu Wan'er was especially excited, because this was the first time she had left Huangshan to play, and her second uncle and his husband were all around, which made her feel quite at ease, without the loneliness and fear of leaving home. .

Of course, she stayed in Tongling for a few days before. However, although Tongling is two or three hundred miles away from Huizhou Prefecture, it still belongs to the remnants of Mount Huangshan. It's different, there are small bridges, flowing water, people and weeping willows and rice fields everywhere, which is simply too beautiful.

She was chattering and laughing all the way, as happy as a happy lark, even Taichang was infected by his smile, completely abandoning the majesty that needs to be maintained at all times when being an emperor .

It's a pity that the happy time is always short-lived. They had just disembarked and got into the carriage for less than half an hour, before they entered Suzhou City, when there was a sudden burst of rude yelling and pleading in front of them.

Wu Wan'er suddenly lost her joy, and anyone who heard this noisy voice would frown.

Who is calling here, howling?

Taichang couldn't help sticking out his head angrily, and looked in front of the convoy.

Good guy, I don't know how many carriages, flatbed carts, wheelbarrows and various vehicles are blocked in front of us. They are densely packed, and the entire official road is blocked.

He couldn't help but asked Luo Yangxing who was on the side: "What's going on in front?"

Luo Yangxing quickly replied: "The front seems to be a checkpoint set by the inspection department."

Checkpoints set by the inspection department?

This time he went out to patrol and encountered many checkpoints in the inspection department, but none of the checkpoints in the inspection department blocked the official road.

The inspection department is the dispatched agency set up by the local states and counties to check the passing pedestrians. Generally, there will be checkpoints set up by the inspection department at the road pass in the periphery of the state and county. Here, is there anyone who sells private salt and private tea?

It is not easy to travel far in the Ming Dynasty. Whether you are going out to do business or visit relatives, you have to go to the prefectural and county government office to get a guide, and explain clearly the purpose and route of your trip. If there is no guide Or if the road guide is wrong and you are caught outside, you will be fined and escorted back to your original place, or you will be arrested for hard labor and you will be exhausted to death!

Of course, road guides are for ordinary people, and the privileged class does not need road guides to go out.

For example, famous scholars, court officials, dukes and nobles, serving officials in various places, Jinyiwei, Dongchang fanzi, etc.

Almost all of the more than 50 people in Taichang's business are from the privileged class, and any one who comes forward can make the local inspection department fear three points, and they will naturally not be stopped by the inspection department for interrogation.

However, this time is an exception.

They crowded the official road and moved like snails for nearly half an hour, and finally squeezed in front of the checkpoint of the inspection department. When a Jin Yiwei stepped forward to show his waist card, the little official of the inspection department smiled. Rubbing his fingers together, he said, "Hey, he's still a Jinyiwei. Jinyiwei also has to behave, right?"

This action is asking me for money?
That Jin Yiwei couldn't believe his eyes.

Are you kidding me, I have to pay tolls, are you impatient?

He froze for a moment, then straightened his face, and said coldly: "What rules? What kind of mess? Get out of the way quickly, I'm busy, I don't have time to talk to you about the rules."

Unexpectedly, the clerk of the inspection department turned his face hard and said cursingly: "What? Jin Yiwei is amazing? Jin Yiwei can lead a team to sell private salt?"

Oh, how courageous, a Zhima official from the ninth rank dares to scold Jin Yiwei!
That Jin Yiwei was scolded, he just wanted to chop this guy up with a knife.

Don't you know that Jin Yiwei controls the killing but doesn't care about burying it?
However, he didn't really draw his sword, because the emperor was in the carriage behind him, how could he dare to draw his sword at random, and besides, he might not be able to defeat this group of people by himself.

Because there are not only brave archers in this group, but also guards with swords, shields and spears in their hands. There are at least hundreds of people in this group. No matter how powerful he is, he can't carry so many people together!
After thinking for a while, he held back his anger, and retreated behind Luo Yangxing blushing.

He can't make the decision on this matter, it can only be decided by the commanding officer.

Luo Yangxing was also a little confused at the moment, he really didn't expect that a small inspector would dare to stop Jin Yiwei from passing.

If he reveals his identity, the patrol inspector will probably be scared to death. He is the commander of Jin Yiwei, who is in charge of Beizhen Fusi Prison.

The problem is that his identity cannot be disclosed!
In desperation, he had no choice but to hit the horse to the side of Taichang's carriage, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, they won't let us pass, what should we do?"

Taichang naturally saw the situation ahead.

Something is wrong with this!
The inspection department is an inspection agency set up by local states and counties, and all the recruits are village braves. Why are there so many guards in this group?

What's even more outrageous is that these people are not even afraid of Jin Yiwei!
This is too abnormal.

Are these people coming after him?
impossible!

Although he only brought about fifty brocade guards with him, all of them were masters. From the front, it looked like a pile of miscellaneous soldiers. He only needed [-] or [-] brocade guards to go up, and they would be overthrown in three or two strokes.

So, what's going on?
Be careful in everything.

After thinking for a while, he raised his hand to beckon Zhang Zhiji, and solemnly said: "Take twenty people up to see what is going on with these guards. Be careful, if they do something, they will be shot."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhiji immediately raised his hand to beckon twenty Jinyi guards, rode his horse forward, and shouted at the group of guards: "Who is in charge of the guards, come out and answer."

So arrogant, it seems that there is something behind it.

A hundred households in Tunwei came forward and said lazily, "Brother, I know you are Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei can't break the rules, right?"

What kind of messy rules, can your rules be greater than the king's law?
Zhang Zhiji didn't bother to talk to him, so he asked coldly, "Which guard is there, is there an order from the Ministry of War?"

It's none of your business, what are you talking about, who are you scaring!

The hundred households also turned their faces sternly, and said coldly: "Ask me which guard is in the Suzhou prefecture, pretending to understand if you don't understand, right? I'm a hundred households of the Suzhou guard, why don't you bite me!"

how?
Your hundred households are gone, maybe your life might be gone too!

Zhang Zhiji was getting a little angry, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Ask you if you have an order from the Ministry of War, don't talk to me about this nonsense."

Those hundreds of households are also on fire, what the hell, it's really amazing to be the Jinyiwei!

He directly cursed and said: "Don't you think that you can do anything wrong by wearing the skin of Zhang Jinyiwei, and Jinyiwei will be left alone? Don't you know whose territory this is, a land turtle that came out of Shangada?"

It is true that not all Jinyiwei can do anything wrong. To be precise, the ones who really have the right to do anything wrong are the Jinyiwei Tiqi of Beizhen Fusi and the guards who are ordered by the emperor to investigate and handle imperial cases.

Others, such as those who were sent to the palaces of the vassals but stayed there for various reasons, and even the school captains and generals who were on duty at the palace, could not do anything wrong.

The question is, Jinyiwei can't do anything wrong, but can the local guards do anything wrong?
