The Golden Age Chapter 751: Pillaging people’s property
Shen Du's face changed suddenly, and he instantly guessed who this young general was.
Of course, there are many officials surnamed Qin, but now the most famous in the south of the Yangtze River is of course Shaoqing Qin Xiao of Dali Temple, who can make Fei Xin a respectful name as an adult, and it can only be the Qin Xiao who once set off a storm in Kyoto.
Qin Xiao's crotch is naturally the Black Overlord.
He went to the south of the Yangtze River this time and brought the Black Overlord. When he was not in Suzhou City, he left the Black Overlord in Neiku.
Qin Shaoqing's mount, Jiang Xiaochun, of course, did not dare to neglect. When he broke through from Neiku, he brought the Black Overlord out, and after the Battle of Funiu Mountain, he returned the Black Overlord to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao sat on horseback, looked up and down Shen, and smiled: "General Shen, you don't see a word on your body. You represent the Law of the Tang Dynasty. I don't know where to start?"
"It turned out to be Qin Shaoqing of the Dali Temple." Shen Du knew Qin Xiao's reputation, and saw him coming with thousands of soldiers and horses. He was surprised but calm on his face: "This Master Fei spit, please, please Qin Shaoqing punished."
"Oh?"
"The Shence Army is the elite of defending the country and suppressing the rebellion, not a national law." Shen Du said: "I have never said that the Shence Army represents the Law of the Tang Dynasty. Punishment. If Qin Shaoqing considers that you are colleagues and cannot enforce the law impartially, after returning to the city of Hangzhou, you can only report the matter to An Xinghou in detail. I believe An Xinghou can call the shots for me."
"You have a mouthful of peace and prosperity on the left and the right. Do you want to say that everything you do is ordered by Anxinghou?" Qin Xiao smiled, harmless to humans and animals.
Shen Du felt that there seemed to be a trap in this sentence, and did not answer directly, so he asked, "What is Qin Shaoqing's intention to bring so many people here? Datang has national laws, and local mobilization of troops and horses requires orders from the Ministry of War. You have Thousands of people are definitely not soldiers and horses in Hangzhou. They are naturally brought from Suzhou. Dare to ask if there is an order to transfer troops from Suzhou?"
"No." Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't have a dispatch order from the Ministry of War."
Shen Du immediately sneered and said: "No withering, arbitrarily mobilizing, Qin Shaoqing, you are really brave, are you going to rebel?"
"General Shen, which eye do you see that they are the soldiers and horses of the court?" Qin Xiao smiled and said: "They are folk courage, Suzhou rebellion, they actively serve the court and wipe out the rebels for the court."
Shen Du laughed and pointed to the flag and said: "Datang Zhongyong Army, Qin Shaoqing, if you are not officers and soldiers, how can you play the banner of Datang? Either you are deploying troops without authorization, or you are posing as officers and soldiers, no matter which one, You are all sins unforgivable."
Although Qin Xiao had a great reputation in Kyoto, for the Shence Army, they were a separate line. In the palace behind him, Shen Du really didn't stun Qin Xiao.
At this moment, he only feels that he has grasped the vital point. No matter how Qin Xiao argues, he is inevitable.
"Yes, I did play the banner of Tang Jun." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "In the Jiangnan chaos, Her Royal Highness temporarily recruited Xiang Yong and hung the banner of the Loyalty Army, but the Zhongyong Army was not officially organized, so it was not considered an officer or soldier. . But now they are indeed fighting against Datang, and the princess also gave the banner, so we played the flag. General Shen, explain this, I don’t know if you are satisfied?"
"When the saint enthroned the throne, the three states and seven counties rebelled. If General Shen still has a memory, he should remember that Nanyang County rebels were rampant at that time. Although Lord Huang Xinghuang in Nanyang County was just a county magistrate, he organized nearly Thousands of people resisted the rebels." Fei Xin said sternly behind Qin Xiao: "Although Master Huang Xing died in the battle, the saint praised the matter greatly and bestowed Master Huang Xing with the title of Earl of Evergreen. Those courageous folks are also praised
Award. "
Shen Du's lips moved, but he couldn't speak.
"What we did this time is to emulate the loyalty of Uncle Evergreen." Qin Xiao looked at Shen Du and smiled: "The Suzhou rebels were annihilated, but there are remnants of the rebels who fled to Hangzhou. We were ordered by His Highness to come to Hangzhou. In addition to chasing down the rebels, we also need to maintain order in Hangzhou. We will never allow anyone with intentions to take the opportunity to bring trouble to Hangzhou. I wonder if General Shen understands my explanation?"
Shen Du snorted coldly and said, "In that case, you can chase and suppress the rebels, why do you want to stop us halfway?"
"Okay, General Shen's question, I will tell you the truth." Qin Xiao's expression became grim: "I should ask you next." He pointed his finger at the prison lane: "Who is detained in the prison car? ?"
Shen Du thought to your heart that this was a question you knowingly, and said calmly: "The Jiaxing Wei family's youngest and young are all rebellious to the party and escorted to Hangzhou."
"I won't ask who convicted them first." Qin Xiao stretched out his hand and said, "Bring the arrest warrant!"
Shen Du shook his head and said: "No. We went to Jiaxing to arrest the rebels on the order of Anxing. We did not have an arrest warrant, only the military order. The military order is like a mountain, so naturally we must obey. If Qin Shaoqing wants to see the arrest warrant, it will be great You can go to Hangzhou City to find Anxinghou."
"Don't worry, An Xinghou is there, I naturally want to visit." Qin Xiao said slowly: "I only deal with the immediate matter. General Shen, can't you get the arrest warrant?"
Shen Du snorted coldly: "What if I can't get it out?"
"Come on, check the car behind." Qin Xiao said coldly: "Look at what is on the car."
Yuwen Chengchao hasn't said a word, only then did he nod his head at Zhao Shengtai who was beside him, and Zhao Shengtai immediately took people to the car behind.
When Shen Du saw this, he pressed the handle of the knife and said sharply: "Who dares!"
"What? General Shen has an opinion?"
Shen Du said coldly: "Qin Shaoqing, the things in the car are all stolen goods, you are not qualified to check the car. Are you really afraid to blame it when you wait?"
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "The sky is falling, I still carry it, I am sure about the things in the car today." Loudly: "Who dares to stop, immediately kill!"
Zhao Shengtai brought a group of people over like wolves and tigers, pried open a few boxes of the vehicle behind, and quickly brought a few things over and said, "Master Qin, the boxes are full of gold and silver treasures. There are many antique calligraphy and paintings."
Qin Xiao took a white jade dragonfly and asked Shen Du: "General Shen, give an explanation."
"What's the explanation?" Shen Du said angrily: "You dare to pry open the box, this matter will not stop there."
Qin Xiao said sharply: "I will ask you to give me an explanation, why do you carry so many possessions when detaining prisoners?"
"Naturally, it was obtained from ransacking the house." Shen Du was not afraid, and tit-for-tat: "I was ordered to arrest the chaotic party, ransack the house by the way, and transport the confiscations back to Hangzhou. What's not clear about this?"
"House copy?" Qin Xiao nodded and smiled: "I understand." To Fei Xin said: "Master Fei, let's talk about it, is this General Shen qualified to copy the house?"
Fei Xin said solemnly: "The law of the Tang Dynasty, the criminals committed serious crimes, and the court can confiscate their family property. The ransacking requires Dali Temple's memorial, and a saint will issue a confiscation decree, but the imperial guard is responsible for ransacking the home. If not, The imperial guard in the palace was ordered to confiscate the house, and the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Criminal Affairs officials could order the house to be ransacked."
"Understood." Qin Xiao nodded and said: "
To quarrel, there are three things. The first is that the person who is ransacked must be a felony, the second is that the saint’s will is needed, and the third is that not everyone is qualified to do the ransacking. It requires the imperial guard or justice. Ya poor execution. "
Faixin nodded and said: "Exactly."
"Speaking of which, General Shen and Shence Army are not qualified to ransack their homes?"
"First, whether Jiaxing Wei’s family has committed a felony needs to be thoroughly investigated by the Sanfa Division. The Sanfa Division cannot convict him until the case is closed. Second, General Shen does not even have an arrest warrant, so it is naturally impossible to have it. The saint’s intention to hack the house." He bothered to say: "Third, even if they want to hack the house, the Shence Army is not qualified. They are ultra vires."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "The matter is clear. Of course, if the saint's special order is ransacked by the Shence army, of course our Dali Temple can't bother. So if General Shen can come up with the will to rob the Wei's family, we Leave immediately." Stretched out his hand and said, "General Shen, there is no arrest warrant. Does the saint want to ransack his home?"
Shen Du faintly felt that things could not be good today, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "We have just arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, and we have just discovered the Jiaxing Weijia rebellion. Naturally, it is too late to ask the saint."
"In this way, you are not ransacking the house by order." Qin Xiao's face became grim: "I often heard that when the army is in chaos, there will be some brave soldiers who take advantage of the chaos to plunder the people. This time, come here. Before Hangzhou, the princess had instructed not only to suppress the rebels, but also to protect the people from harm and looting. General Shen, you took a group of people, did not have an arrest warrant, and did not intend to ransack the house, but you arrested a large group of people. Still pulling a dozen carts of property, I want to know, are you looting people’s property?"
Shen Du was shocked in his heart.
Actually, it is commonplace for the Shence army to go hand in hand with some local people every time they send troops, but this kind of thing is definitely not going to be bothered.
After all, the Shence Army is not only the elite soldiers and horses defending Kyoto, but also the palace in the background, not even directly controlled by the Ministry of War, but a sharp blade held by the saint directly. Such a soldier and horse has always been defiant. , If you really did something beyond, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty would have closed one eye, and no one would be embarrassed with the Shence Army.
For Shen Du, taking a team of soldiers to confiscate a gentry is as simple as eating and sleeping. After all, the Shence Army has been doing this for many years.
In Qingzhou, when the Queen’s Mother’s Association was put down, the Shence Army did such a thing. Now the Jiangnan family is directly involved in the rebellion. Ning resisted, and Shen Du never felt that there was anything wrong with this matter.
But at this moment Qin Xiao's words were thrown over, and he suddenly realized that if Dali Temple really wanted to hold on to this matter, it would be really troublesome.
"Qin Shaoqing, rice can be eaten indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." Shen Du immediately said: "It is totally unreasonable to say that we rob people's property. We are on the order of peace and prosperity, are you saying peace? Let us plunder people’s wealth if we wish?"
An Xinghou Xiahou Ning is the son of the prime minister, and even the nephew of today's saint. Looking at the civil and military affairs of the dynasty, almost no one dares to be an enemy of An Xinghou.
The little Shaoqing of Dali Temple, although he has recently received the respect of the saints, but the ministers are after all the ministers, so he is regarded as respected by the saints again, can it be equal to Xiahouning's position in the hearts of the saints?
At this time, directly carry An Xinghou out. If Qin Xiao continues to intervene, he will be unable to get through with An Xinghou. Shen Du's heart abacus is very good. As long as there is An Xinghou to bear it, let's not say that he has stolen Wei's wealth. , Even if the entire Jiaxing gentry were copied, what could Qin Xiao do?
