Chapter 643 The Embroidered Uniform Guard Investigates a Case
Big boss?
Why did those three words sound so out of place coming from Jin'er's cherry-like mouth?
But Jin'er is right!
Our family shouldn't bear this kind of infamy; we should shift the blame to Liu Bowen.
Tsk tsk.
It has to be my wife.
They are of one mind with me.
Just as Yang Shaofeng was about to praise Jin'er, Yu'er chimed in, "Sister is right. Our Yang family is a family that values poetry and literature. We can't bear such a bad reputation."
That's right!
Our Yang family is a family that has passed down the tradition of poetry and literature.
As for Liu Bowen's family?
Ah.
Everyone knows that Liu Bowen was the head of the censors and officials in charge of remonstrance, and was notoriously ruthless.
How could his family be considered a good family?
Yang Shaofeng gave a thumbs up and said to Jin'er and Yu'er, "Yes, my wife is right. Our Yang family is a kind family, unlike the black-hearted Earl of Chengyi."
Just then, the maid returned to the room with the flying fish robe and the embroidered spring knife.
Jin'er and Yu'er together helped Yang Shaofeng change out of his original county magistrate's robes and into his flying fish robes.
Jin'er looked Yang Shaofeng up and down and whispered, "Husband, you do look more dashing in this flying fish robe than in the official robes of a county magistrate or prefect."
That's true.
Other official robes from the Ming Dynasty have a rather indescribable feel to them.
But this flying fish outfit is undeniably cool.
Just look at his two wives blushing with embarrassment to know how handsome he is.
The only pity is that I have never actually been on the battlefield, so I don't have that kind of murderous aura on my face.
Otherwise, he would be even more handsome.
While pondering this haphazardly, Yang Shaofeng turned to the lame man and the commander of the Imperial Son-in-Law's personal guards and instructed them, "Gather the brothers, let's head to Laizhou Prefecture first."
……
The Embroidered Uniform Guard is handling a case.
If this had happened during the late Hongwu or Yongle periods, those five words alone would have been enough to scare some timid people to death.
However, in the fifth year of the Hongwu reign, the reputation of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was far more than just the five words "the Embroidered Uniform Guard solving cases" were enough to terrify people.
At most, it can only stop a child from crying at night.
As for the Jinyiwei (Imperial Guard) thousand-household and hundred-household units in various prefectures and counties, in the eyes of ordinary people, they were man-eating dens, and specifically dens that preyed on officials, local gentry, and wealthy merchants.
Today, in the main hall of the Jinyiwei Thousand-Household Office in Laizhou, they finally welcomed Yang Zhenfu, whose nominal status was second only to Commander Xia of the Jinyiwei.
Yang Shaofeng first offered incense to the portrait of Yue Fei enshrined in the main hall, then sat down in a grand chair and asked Ding Yuanxiu, the commander of the Jinyiwei in Laizhou, "Have you found any clues in Laizhou Prefecture?"
Ding Yuanxiu bowed directly to Yang Shaofeng and said, "Your Highness, there are very few clues in Laizhou Prefecture. We only know that some unregistered ships have passed through Lingshan Guard."
"In addition, I sent someone to the Qingzhou Thousand Household Office to inquire, and they also found that there were unregistered ships passing through Andongwei."
"Moreover, both Lingshan Guard and Andong Guard sent people to intercept them, but they failed."
Anton Wei.
Lingshan Guard.
These two guards, one in Qingzhou and the other in Laizhou, both discovered unregistered vessels.
Yang Shaofeng chuckled softly.
This is getting interesting.
Are the unregistered vessels discovered by Andongwei and Lingshanwei the same vessel, or two different vessels?
Moreover, whether it was the same ship or two different ships, the Andong Guard and the Lingshan Guard were unable to stop it.
That's even more interesting.
How could the mighty Ming Dynasty navy fail to stop a single ship?
Is this due to the navy's incompetence, or are the navy's warships unreliable?
Or is it that the other side's ships are too powerful?
Or perhaps the Andongwei and Lingshanwei are no longer reliable?
Yang Shaofeng's mind raced as he considered the possible scenarios and asked, "What has the Prefect of Laizhou done recently?"
Ding Yuanxiu bowed to Yang Shaofeng again and replied, "The newly appointed Prefect of Laizhou, Dong Huai'an, has been inspecting the various counties under Laizhou's jurisdiction recently. The county magistrates under Laizhou's jurisdiction have already set deadlines for the yamen runners in each county."
At this point, Ding Yuanxiu's expression became somewhat strange.
