Pawn Crossing the River

In the previous dynasty, Qingluan Guards were secret agents, assassins, and guards.

However, in this dynasty, the functions of Qingluan Guards have undergone many changes, and they are between those in black and those of police officers.

Although the Qingluan Guards still retain the title of the emperor's personal soldiers, they are no longer responsible for guarding the palace. In addition to retaining some of the emperor's eyes and ears, they are mainly responsible for detecting various murders and robberies against secret societies, gangsters, and gangsters. For illegal things such as robbery, the main responsibilities of the Qianhu Office and Baihu Office in various places are to maintain stability and crack down on bandits. This is equivalent to taking away some of the powers belonging to the Ministry of Punishment and the Department of Criminal Investigation and Envoys. The local Department of Criminal Investigation and Enforcement is mainly responsible for Responsible for civil cases.

In terms of weapons and equipment, there are obvious differences between the three. The men in black mainly use various heavy firearms, and they can massacre cities and destroy areas. The detectives are mainly equipped with iron rulers, chains, waist knives, and at most one gun.

The Qingluan Guards are between the two, equipped with a large number of firearms, not only hand guns and sabers, but also the key is equipped with armor, strong crossbows, long guns, repeating guns, large guns, etc., and even cavalry.

You know, before firearms flourished, hiding crossbows and armor would be regarded as treason. If it were placed in ancient times, the Qingluan Guard could already be regarded as an army. However, in today's world, because there is a lack of large-scale men in black to attack fortresses, Firearms are no match for an organized group of men in black. However, most of the members of the Qingluan Guard have special skills, and are somewhat similar to Jianghu people. They are quite accomplished in cold weapons when fighting alone.

Because of this, the reputation of the Qingluan Guards has improved, and they are often seen all over the world. They even got the nickname "Men in Qingyi". However, because the reputation of the men in black is so great, the history of the Qingluan Guards It is also too long-term, so the title of Qingyi people is not very popular. People are still accustomed to calling them Qingluan Guards. Only when they are different from the previous Qingluan Guards, they will be called Qingyi people.

Of course, the improvement is only compared to the Qingluan Guards, who had an outstanding reputation in the previous dynasty. There are also many internal problems. For example, the Qingluan Guards in Fengtai County are not even considered by the county magistrate. In their eyes, they kill as many people as they want, and they kill everyone. So do you still expect them to be kind to the people?

In fact, whether Qingluan Wei plays the role of a spy in the past or the role of a policeman today, it is nothing in the eyes of real big shots. The common people always feel that the all-pervasive Qingluan Guards in the past are a scourge. They have the power to arrest, try, and execute. They seem to have the ability to change the situation. But in fact, what the powerful are afraid of is not the Qingluan Guards, but the people behind the Qingluan Guards. His Majesty the Emperor. If His Majesty the Emperor abandons the Qingluan Guard one day, will this seemingly huge special organization be able to defeat the man in black?

It's like a knife. The knife itself is nothing to be afraid of, the key is the person holding the knife.

Obviously, the current emperor does not attach great importance to the Qingluan Guard and does not want to cause a big prison. This has resulted in the Qingluan Guard having little sense of presence in the court. There is no longer a situation where the leader of the Qingluan Guard and the elder Ge are on an equal footing. Can only be active locally. To put it harshly, it's like a hound trying hard to express itself, hoping that its owner will notice it again.

This is the reason why Qingluan Guards repeatedly crack down on secret societies. Regardless of the results, just in terms of enthusiasm, they are even better than Tiangangtang.

However, this metaphor is only for real big shots. For ordinary people and little people, Qingluan Guard is still an unshakable behemoth, such as the current Qi Xuansu.

Qingluan Guards blocked Shimen County. If Qi Xuansu was alone, he could sneak away. Even if he forced his way through, it would not be impossible, but with Liuhu and two horses, it would be difficult to do so. What's more, Qi Xuansu has to be on guard against powerful enemies at this time and can no longer provoke the Qingluan Guards for no reason.

Qi Xuansu showed his true colors, and saw from a distance that the eighth day Yang was lecturing a group of Qingluan guards, and his expression was not very good.

Qi Xuansu led Liuhu towards the eighth day, but when he was halfway there, he was stopped by two Qingluan guards with very vicious looks.

Qi Xuansu calmly took out his two plaques and said, "Your family and I are old acquaintances. Please tell me that my old friend Wei Wugui is here to visit."

The two strongmen were shocked by the two signs.

If a commoner comes and says that he is an old friend of their boss, they will definitely not believe it. But the man in front of them was in black and related to the Taoist sect. He was obviously not an ordinary person. They didn't dare not believe it. Even if he was not an old friend of their boss, they couldn't afford to offend him. They immediately changed their faces to a kind face and asked Qi Xuansu to wait. , while hurriedly going to report to the eighth day.

After a while, the eighth day Yang came over in a hurry. Obviously he didn't expect to see Wei Wugui here. He motioned to the two warriors to take over Qi Xuansu's horses, and then said: "Brother Wei, let's talk somewhere else."

Under the leadership of Eighth Dayang, Qi Xuansu and Liu Hu came to a house that was temporarily requisitioned by Qingluan Guards. Qingluan Guards wearing blue military attache robes came in and out. After seeing Eighth Dayang, they all gave way. salute.

Came to a living room and sat down separately.

On the eighth day, Yangxiao asked, "When did Brother Wei join the men in black?"

Qi Xuansu asked in reply: "Am I allowed to only allow the eighth brother to be promoted and not allow me to find a career?"

This is something that is obvious. If Tian Yang was still at the local Qianhu Office on the eighth day, he would never appear here.

"Brother Wei is joking." Eighth Day Yang waved his hands repeatedly, "What a promotion, it's just a promotion."

Qi Xuansu said: "You can't say that. When it comes to promotion, the imperial capital is always faster than the local ones, and you can't just look at the grade. The key is the position."

The eighth day Yang did not deny it and said: "What Brother Wei said is true. Brother has just been transferred to the 7000 Household Station. Although he is still deputy to the 1000th Household, the road ahead will indeed be easier." Qingluan Guard's The headquarters is the pro-military Duwei Mansion located in the Imperial Capital, which is divided into North and South Town Fusi, South Town Fusi is internal, and North Town Fusi is external. Among them, there are several thousand households under Fusi in Beizhen that are not stationed in the local area.

The thousandth household is engaged in the old business and supervises hundreds of officials. In the past, it was one of the most critical departments, but it still depends on His Majesty the Emperor's wishes. Since His Majesty the Emperor does not pay attention to the Qingluan Guards, then this Thousand Households Office is just a decoration, filling the story.

The Second Thousand House is also involved in intelligence. The difference from the First Thousand House is that the Second Thousand House is mainly external, sending spies to enemy countries. It has a close relationship with the men in black and often cooperates with them. It is also the Qingluan Guard. A department with the best reputation in China.

The officials of the 3000th House, who are responsible for supervising the nineteen states in the world, used to have great power, but now they have the same fate as the 1000th House, and they have become a decoration.

The 4000th House, because it sounds like the word "death", is responsible for assassinations and other matters. However, over the years, the business has been very small, and it is not suitable to maintain a large business staff. Therefore, it has been streamlined again and again, and most of the few businesses have been outsourced to "inns".

The Fifth Thousand Households Office, also famous, is called the Thousand Households of Punishment Office. There is one person each in charge of the Thousand Households and the Hundred Households. They are also called criminal officials. They are responsible for the jail, perform the functions of jailers, detain and torture prisoners, and each All these horrific tortures were carried out in this Qianhu Station.

The Sixth Thousand Household Office, responsible for guarding the palace and the emperor's ceremonial guard, is now also a decoration.

The Seven Thousand Household Office is a newly established rising star, specializing in various major and important cases. Qingluan Wei's cases are divided into two types. One involves temples. This kind of case is not technically difficult, and the main thing is to figure out the meaning. The other type has nothing to do with temples, but the impact is quite bad, and it is extremely difficult to solve the case, such as the massacre of a large family, or the princes and dignitaries being patronized by snitches, etc. The 7000 Household Office is mainly responsible for the latter case, which can be regarded as The more outstanding department of Qingluan Guard.

On the eighth day, Yang looked at Liu Hu, who had been silent all this time, and asked tentatively: "This is..."

Qi Xuansu said: "This is my niece. Her father and I are old friends and asked me to send her to her aunt in Zhili."

"Speaking of which, after I was transferred to the 7000th household by a piece of paper, I didn't have time to go to the imperial capital to report on my duties." Yang Yang said on the eighth day, "It's a pity that I can't go with Brother Wei now that I have official duties."

Qi Xuansu took advantage of the situation and asked, "What difficulty does the eighth brother seem to have encountered?"

On the eighth day, he regained his energy and said: "Speaking of this matter, I would also like to ask Brother Wei to help me."

Qi Xuansu said: "If there is anything I can do to help the eighth brother, I will naturally not stand idly by."

On the eighth day, Yang said: "To be honest, the reason why I appeared in Shimen County is because a major serial murder case occurred here. The local 100-household office could not solve the case, so it was reported to us."
