Chapter 10 Kidnapping Marquis Wu
"Wei Chang, this old fellow, seems to be a little too much. It seems that if you want to subdue him for your own use, you can't do it without showing some real skills."
Qin Lang was not very annoyed when he saw Wei Chang's half-smile, after all, it was reasonable for him to despise his boss, a dude.
"It seems that if I want to gain a foothold in Chang'an County, the first step is to subdue this Wei Chang. To capture the thief, first capture the king. If you can't deter Wei Chang, I'm afraid other bad people won't listen at all. Own."
Wei Chang was dressed in soap, and was still waiting for Qin Lang's reply, but when he thought about it, a dandy who was only sixteen years old had only been in the left guard for two years as a guard with a knife and a stick for two years. What can be seen from these transcripts? He didn't see anything anyway.
"Wei Shuai, judging from this note, I'm afraid this maidservant in Silla has the heart of harming her master, stealing and fleeing. Poisoning, stealing, fleeing, and disappearing without a trace all at once, this is definitely a pre-emptive act." It's been planned for a long time, it's not a temporary idea, right?"
Wei Chang was a little surprised, "The Shaofu's analysis is that this is indeed the case, but this lowly servant girl fled without a trace, and there is nowhere to investigate."
"It is impossible for a person to disappear without a trace all at once, especially if it is a maidservant with a slave, and a Silla maidservant. A Silla maidservant is very conspicuous, and there is no owner to carry it. With the certificate of slave status and no official documents, a Silla slave could not even get out of the gate of Chang'an City, so I judge that this Silla slave is still hiding in Chang'an City."
Now Wei Chang also had to admire Qin Lang, for he was able to analyze so much useful information at once only from those transcripts, and what he said was indeed very reasonable, as he had speculated before.
"However, Chang'an City is so large, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians. If you want to find someone who is hiding, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, and time is so tight." Wei Chang threw the problem in front of Qin Lang again.
Qin Lang pinched his chin, which had just grown a short beard, and smiled, pretending to be profound.
Although in this life he is just a son of honor and has no experience in the world, he is a time traveler. In his later life, although he is just a salesman running business, he is also a senior reader and part-timer because he loves history and novels. writer.
Among them, I have read a lot of various criminal detective cases and detective novels, and I have watched many such film and television programs. It can be said that I can understand simple logical reasoning.
"Wei Shuai, Guo Yuanwai's residence is in Yonganfang, next to Zhuque Street, right?"
"Exactly."
Qin Lang smiled again, "Zhuque Street is the royal road of Tianjie, and it is also an important street that the guards on the left and right are patrolled and guarded by Marquis Wu. Even at the intersection of Zhujie Street and other streets, there are There are at least 30 Marquis Wu stationed in each street shop, right?"
"What the Shaofu said is true."
As the capital of Chang'an City, in addition to the unscrupulous people in Chang'an and Wannian County to maintain the law and order of the capital, there is also an important yamen, that is, the left and right guards. The left and right guards were called the left and right Wuhou guards in the Sui Dynasty. It was renamed Left and Right Jinwuwei.
There are street envoys on the left and right below it, and street shops are set up at all the city gates and key points of neighborhoods in Chang'an. They are permanently stationed in Wuhou. These street shops are equivalent to security guard boxes, and the Marquis inside are the patrolling Royal Mounted Police. Their responsibilities overlap with those of the bad guys, but they also have their own emphasis.
For example, at night, the gates of the gates of Chang’an are closed. At this time, the people can only move around in the workshops and are not allowed to go out to the streets. Immediate arrest or even cane.
Because these street shops are fixed, Wu Hous also have some advantages compared to the bad people scattered all over Chang'an City.
For example, in the current case, there is a street shop with 30 Marquis in front of Guo Yuanwai's house. There must be people in such a large street shop for twelve hours.
It was night when Guo Yuanwai was poisoned. At this time, the gates of the city gates and workshops were closed, and ordinary people were forbidden to go out in the streets. out.
"I'm sure that Marquis Wu in that street shop must know something about it. Asking them may yield something." Qin Lang laughed.
This street shop is like a surveillance probe, this is the breakthrough point.
Wei Chang smiled, "Young Mansion is really amazing, you can find the key point at once, but my subordinates also thought of this before, and went to visit a long time ago, but Marquis Wu in the street shop didn't cooperate at all. They don’t want to say anything, these guys just want to see that we can’t solve the case within the time limit.”
This is something unexpected.
"The bad guy has a problem with Marquis Wu?"
"That's right!" Wei Chang replied. They are both important public security managers in the capital. Although they each have their own priorities, after all, their responsibilities overlap and they have many contacts in daily life, but the relationship between the two parties is not good, even very stiff.
Wu Hous are Fanshangfu soldiers under the left and right guards, led by the left and right envoys. They are all children of good families, and the bad people are all bad deeds in the Chang'an area of the capital.
Although they were doing similar duties, Fubing had a very high status in the Tang Dynasty. Non-good family members could not be selected, and even those with a lot of money, a small mouth, a lot of money and a healthy body could be selected. To put it bluntly, they were all the children of powerful landlords. , at least you have to be a self-cultivator with a small property, and ordinary poor people have no chance to be a government soldier.
As for bad people, local ruffians, gangsters and rangers may even be the children of merchants and cheap people, and they may also be recruited, so these people have always been looked down upon by the Marquis.
"They must have seen something, and even knew some clues, but they just refused to tell us a word, these damned guys." Wei Chang couldn't help scolding when talking about the Marquis.
"So that's it, the Marquis Wu of the street shop is not afraid that we will take their copy?" Qin Lang asked.
"It's useless, and we don't have any evidence. How can we sue them? Besides, they are the servants of the Twelve Guards, and we are just lowly bad people." Wei Chang said helplessly.
"Then if you give them some gifts and say something nice, will they cooperate?"
Wei Chang shook his head with a sneer, "The more we rush to beg them, the more we rush to beg them, the more they will just take pleasure in watching our jokes, and begging is useless."
Qin Lang was thoughtful.
It's useless to ask, it seems that the contradiction is really not just a little bit deeper.
Tapping his fingers on the table, Qin Lang chuckled.
"What is Shaofu laughing at?"
"Since Marquis Marquis don't take soft things, let's fight hard with them!"
"Wei Shuai, call the brothers, let's fight directly, surround the street shop, and tie the Marquis Wu inside, I don't believe they still refuse to speak, if there is someone who is stubborn, beat until he speaks. "
Wei Chang looked at each other after saying something.
"Young mansion, don't be joking, Marquis Wu are the imperial guards in Nan Ya Fan. There are hundreds of street shops in Chang'an city, and Marquis Wu has thousands. There are two guards on the left and right, Yifu Zhonglang and General Mansion. How can we be their opponents?" ?" An old Jianghu like Wei Chang was stunned for a moment.
In the final analysis, their bad guys are just the lowest-level servants, while Wuhou is a high-ranking soldier. Not to mention, Marquis Wu completely crushed them both in terms of equipment and numbers.
Not to mention, leading people to besiege the street to arrest and kidnap Marquis Wu, isn't that courting death?
"Why, Wei Shuai dare not?" Qin Lang chuckled.
Wei Chang lowered his head, he really didn't dare.
He can command more than a hundred bad guys in Chang'an City, and he has thousands of hidden eyeliners.
Even if Marquis Wu is a street shop with 30 people, the team inside is all dignified Liunei ninth-rank officials.
If he really dared to lead people to besiege the street shop and kidnap Marquis Wu, then he would commit the crime above.
This young man is indeed a fool.
"Then change it up a bit. Let's bring some brothers and quietly tie up a few Marquis Marquis back. When the time comes, we'll force them to confess and let them go. I believe they won't be embarrassed to report when they go back, right?" Qin Lang still insisted. That smiling face.
Wei Chang felt his heart beating a little fast. This young boss really likes to play exciting games.
If you secretly tie up, that is also tied up.
This is not the kidnapping of ordinary people with no status and no status, but the opponent is the Nanya Imperial Army on the Twelve Guards.
"I guess they wouldn't dare to report it, and they can't afford to lose face. Now there is one question, Wei Shuai, do you dare to vote with me? Do you have the ability to quietly tie a few Marquis back?"
Please general is not as good as radical.
Wei Chang raised his head and looked at Qin Lang carefully, and found that he had underestimated this guy before, when he met Qin Lang, he immediately rewarded him with gold, thinking he was just a son of an upstart Xun Qi, but now he found that this guy was generous, quick-witted and courageous great.
Damn, if there is any disagreement, Wuhou will be kidnapped.
"Forget it, since Wei Chang didn't dare, I'll find someone else. It seems that the old saying is true, the older the world, the less courageous. But I also understand that Wei Shuai is also getting old, and he wants to settle down. It’s okay to be safe and secure.”
The scar on Wei Chang's face turned purple and swollen, extremely hideous.
As a bad handsome man, he spent his time in Chang'an City relying on his ability and prestige. If the kid surnamed Qin looked down on him today, it would be difficult for him to lead the bad people in Chang'an County after word spread.
Struggling and hesitating in his heart, Wei Chang held the handle of the knife tightly with his left hand.
After a long time, he finally raised his head, his eyes were red, and he stared straight at Qin Lang, "Okay, old Wei will fight with the Shaofu."
Qin Lang laughed, reached out and patted Wei Chang's arm.
"Wei Shuai don't need to be nervous, the sky is really falling, and I'm still there to support it, go and arrange some smart and capable brothers, and leave immediately."
