Chapter 179 The first day of taking office

"Yes, it's indeed a mission. We received a report earlier that there were some refugees near Dinghuai Gate. He went to capture the refugees and thought it would take him to come back soon." The headmaster said with a wry smile.

"Disin? There will be refugees under the feet of this dignified emperor? Doesn't the prefect know? If it were refugees, what could the five of them do?" Hu Ye was surprised. If they were refugees, the five yamen runners wanted to catch the refugees. Even if they were lucky, they would still want to catch them?

But if it is really a refugee, the Yingtian Prefecture Prefecture is too incompetent. If there is a refugee incident at the foot of the dignified emperor, the prefecture prefecture would not be labeled by Zhu Yuanzhang. But this is not reasonable. There are many military camps in Nanjing. Even if they have to deal with the refugee, it is not the turn of four or five people under a clerk to capture them. Could it be that those military camps are all decorations?

"Oh haha, Lord Dian Li takes office. Let's give you a glass of wine first and wish you a prosperous job." The captain saw Hu Ye having some doubts, and a strange look flashed across his eyes, but quickly covered up his past.

Then he gave a look at the four or five yamen runners under his command. Seeing this, the yamen runners also started to make a fuss and pulled Hu Ye and Lao Qian to a wine table, constantly persuading Hu Ye to drink.

"Well, that, I am young, but I don't have enough alcohol, so I won't drink this wine anymore. Then I will use tea instead of the bar. I am new to the office. If I don't understand anything, please remind you." Hu Ye knew that there must be something wrong with it, but now he is like a blind man crossing the river. He has to take it step by step and cannot get rid of these humanity.

Unexpectedly, this little Dian Lie really thought what Yin Changlong said, it was very deep.

Those yamen runners saw that Hu Ye didn't drink, and they wanted to persuade him to drink, but when they saw that Hu Ye was only twelve or thirteen years old, could he make a big wave? So they didn't say much. They started drinking on their own. It seemed that this Dian Li was not good either. They still had to be played around by others like Dian Li, who came before.

After several years of understanding, the captain was named Lu Shun, who was in charge of ten yamen runners.

In other words, Hu Ye, the Dian official, has more than ten yamen runners who can be assigned to him and also manage a small prison. The prison is not big, so he can only imprison about twenty prisoners.

Hu Ye really wanted to see what the prisoners looked like in ancient times. But Lu Shun used the excuse that the prison was too dirty and told Hu Ye not to go, leaving this kind of thing to them, the captains.

At this time, Hu Ye felt that he had no real power, and the power here seemed to be in the hands of this captain.

"Old Qian, accompany me out for a walk and see the scenery of Yingtian Prefecture." Hu Ye put down his teacup and wanted to take Lao Qian out for a walk.

"It's an adult." Lao Qian is Hu Ye's personal bodyguard now, so he can't call him Master Hu Ye anymore. He wants to call him Master Hu Ye in Yingtian Prefecture, although Hu Ye is not big.

"Sir Dian Li, why don't I take a photo of two yamen runners with me, so as not to make any forks." Lu Shun said, and used his eyes to look at the two yamen runners. Then two yamen runners came to Hu Ye, ready to protect Hu Ye at any time.

Hu Ye smiled at Lu Shun, but did not refuse the protection of the two yamen runners. Although he knew that these two yamen runners were not protecting themselves at all. Instead, they were sent to monitor him, but they had not figured out the situation yet, so don't act rashly.

Lao Qian looked at the two yamen runners fiercely. They were all fat-minded characters, and they wanted to protect their young master? I'm afraid that Lao Qian would deal with these two yamen runners with one knife and no sound.

Hu Ye gave Lao Qian a look and then walked out of the Dian Li's small yamen first and prepared to go around.

"Sir, I think this Dian Lie is just a little baby. I guess it is a family that wants to train their own disciples and spend money to buy an official to do it. We can ignore him directly." After Hu Ye took Lao Qian away, a yamen runner in the small yamen said to Lu Shun.

"You must be careful when you are a little man and a big man, especially the bodyguard behind him, who is obviously a person in the army. I guess I am not a match when I start to fight. But don't care too much. As the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress local snakes. Even if this kid has some background, what can he do to us? When this kid's passion passes, he will naturally leave this small yamen obediently. The oil here is not allowed to be touched by outsiders." Lu Shun said insidiously, with a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.

Hu Ye naturally didn't know that he had been despised. He was now taking Lao Qian and two yamen runners around the huge Yingtian Prefecture yamen.

Yingtian Prefecture is about the same size as the Gongyuan, but the atmosphere is not a little bad. One is the place where the students take the exam, and the other is the place where criminal and civil cases are handled. So walking in Yingtian Prefecture has a particularly depressing feeling.

"Oh, my stomach hurts, I have to go to the cottage." Hu Ye suddenly touched his stomach and squatted down as he walked.

"Sir, are you okay? Do you want to find a doctor for you?" asked a accompanying yamen runner nervously.

"It's okay, I guess I got a broken food in the morning, so I'll be fine if I go and take it." Hu Ye said with a frown.

Then he squatted step by step to find the cottage, and his eyes were still looking around.

About a stick of incense has passed, and Hu Ye has not come back yet. Lao Qian suddenly had a stomachache, frowned, and he also covered his stomach and went to find the cottage.

The two yamen runners looked at each other, what was going on? One master and one servant had a stomachache. What did the family eat in the morning?

But they didn't care much and just waited on the spot.

"Young master, I see that this little yamen is very deep. That Lu Shun is not a good person. He actually arranged two yamen runners to monitor us." Lao Qian came to a thatched cottage, and his stomach stopped hurting in an instant, and his eyes were full of glare.

"No, not bad, I'm worthy of being my bodyguard, I still have some vision." Hu Ye nodded with satisfaction. The old money followed him, and his IQ seemed to have increased a lot.

It turned out that they didn't have stomachache at all, but they just wanted to find a reason to get rid of the surveillance of the two yamen runners behind them.

"Young Master, what are your plans? Do you want to keep going in a daze or want to do something." Old Qian paid attention to the direction he came, afraid that the two yamen runners would come over.

"Do you keep going? You look down on your young master too much. Although we are young, eating and waiting for drinking is not what I should do. I am too lazy to care about ordinary tricks or something, but if it is something that is harmful to the will of heaven, I have to take care of it. Otherwise, let the emperor know that the official he granted is inaction, wouldn't it be accusing him of having no vision?" Hu Ye glanced at Lao Qian with contempt. He had just broken down and made progress, and he began to be in trouble.

"Yes, yes, I wonder what the young master has now planned. Should he continue to take them around or find a place to stroll?" Lao Qian asked in a low voice.

"Hmph, didn't you let me go to the prison just now? Let's go and see who are in it, who are unforgivable evil people, or masters with great martial arts skills." Hu Ye's eyes flashed. He knew that Lu Shun would not let him go to the prison, and there must be something tricky inside. It is not only a high-ranking official like Zhou Jie, who can do it. A small captain like Lu Shun is also very capable.

So the two of them walked quietly along the path in front of the thatched cottage, and asked the two yamen runners outside to continue waiting.

The small cell managed by Dian Li is not far away, and Hu Ye took Lao Qian and found it after not long after searching.

This cell is not big. It is built at the foot of a small hill, built beside the mountain, saving a lot of materials.

There were not many guards, only three people. When they saw someone coming, they naturally stood up to intercept them.

"Stop, who are you? Don't you know that this is a forbidden place and the idle people can't wait to enter?" A prison head touched the sword at his waist and said loudly to Hu Ye. Because he saw that Lao Qian was not simple, if these two people came to rob the prison, the three of them would not be their opponents at all.

"I'm not an idle person waiting." Hu Ye smiled and handed his seal to the prison chief to take a look.

"Little man and Ma Fei, I have met Lord Dian Li." The prisoner quickly knelt down to Hu Ye and bowed, and the two prisoners behind him quickly followed suit.

They didn't expect that Dian Li would come to this prison. In the past, Dian Li would stay in the yamen honestly, so they were very surprised.

"Get up, I'm just here to stroll around, there's nothing else." Hu Ye said, and took Lao Qian to the prison, wanting to see the situation in ancient prisons.

When it comes to the prisons of the Ming Dynasty, of course, the most notorious ones are the imperial prisons, the exclusive cell of the Jinyiwei. There are many ministers who have been damaged in history.

However, Hu Ye has no right to go to the imperial prison yet, so he can only come to the small prison cell of the Dian Lie. Since he has become a Dian Lie, he has to practice it himself.

When Ma Fei saw Hu Ye taking Lao Qian, he walked into the prison and got up to follow him, fearing that something would go wrong.

The prison here is similar to the ones performed on TV, but it seems that the situation here is worse. Since it is built beside the mountain and it is relatively humid inside, Hu Ye smelled a musty smell as soon as he walked in. It must be that the hay in the cell had become moldy.

There are eight cells in total, and two people are locked in each cell. The older one is in his forties and the younger one is only sixteen or seventeen years old.

"Sir, those who are locked up here are all those who have committed crimes, including serious criminals and cheated. When the Ministry of Justice's official documents come out, the two serious criminals will be sent to guard the border." Ma Fei pointed to Hu Ye at the two strong men locked in a prison cell, with their hands and feet locked and fixed to the wall.

When the two strong men saw that they were little babies, they immediately spitted phlegm and saliva at Hu Ye, and cursed, "Dog Official."

"You..." Lao Qian could tolerate his young master being scolded for being a dog official. He lit up the horizontal knife on his waist and looked at the two strong men with vicious contempt.

"These two are light sentenced prisoners. They could leave if they paid some security deposits, but they had no family members and could not pay the security deposits, so they were locked up here all the time." Ma Fei pointed at the two of them and said.

Hu Ye looked around and found that the two of them were nothing special. They were both unkempt and could not tell what they looked like.

Hu Ye didn't care too much, but when Hu Ye passed by, a person inside suddenly lit up. He rushed to the door, grabbed Hu Ye's clothes, and begged loudly, "Young Master, save me." (To be continued, please search Piao Tianwen, the novel is better and faster!
