Chapter 345: Military Division
Jiang Qibin dismissed the servants and made a gesture of invitation: "I'll take you to your room."
Qin Huiyin nodded and followed Jiang Qibin to the room Song Ruize had prepared for her.
Jiang Qibin only took him to the door and did not follow him in.
He pointed to the room across the street and said, "That's our boss's room."
Qin Huiyin smelled the fragrance as soon as she entered the door. She turned around and saw the incense burner on the table, which was burning the orchid fragrance she liked.
The new bed is very elegant, and the pattern on it is also her favorite orchid. Every decoration here is her favorite, including...
The wardrobe was full of new clothes, in all kinds of colors, and each one was very exquisite. There was also a cabinet filled with all kinds of embroidered shoes, and on the dressing table were boxes. When you opened the boxes, you could see all kinds of jewelry, none of which was the most exquisite, but more exquisite, made of gold, jade, and various gemstones. You could only wear a different one every ten days or half a month.
Qin Huiyin came out and asked: "Have you informed my brother about my trip to Beijing?"
"Oh, I forgot." Jiang Qibin slapped his forehead, "I'll send someone to tell him now."
"No need." Qin Huiyin smiled, "I'll go find him."
"But the boss is on duty now. If you go to him now, you might not even be able to talk to him."
"It's okay, just let him see me." Qin Huiyin said with a smile, "But you have to wait a moment. I just arrived in Beijing and I'm exhausted. I want to clean up first."
Half an hour later, Qin Huiyin walked out of the room looking refreshed.
Jiang Qibin saw that she was wearing new clothes bought by Song Ruize, and the jewelry she used for dressing up was also bought by Song Ruize. She was dressed in a different way from her usual plainness, and looked extremely gorgeous. Some people believed that she grew up in the capital, after all, those young ladies from official families did not have such outstanding looks and unique temperament.
There are actually five Bingmasi, collectively known as the Five City Bingmasi. These Five City Bingmasi are responsible for the east, south, west, north, and center. Their main duties are to patrol and arrest thieves, comb the streets and ditches, guard prisoners, and prohibit fires.
Therefore, although the positions in this department may seem low, it is a very important department as it can deal with people from both the upper and lower nine classes.
Song Ruize was in charge of the military division of East City and was the commander of the military division there. Today, a fire broke out in East City, and he and his brothers were there directing the firefighting and the post-fire disaster response.
Song Ruize watched as the fire was finally under control.
Chen Yong brought his men to bring a tall and thin man and said to Song Ruize, "Boss, this guy deliberately set the fire."
Song Ruize looked at the man being held in custody coldly: "Reason."
"This store originally belonged to my father. After my father died, my second uncle took advantage of us, an orphan and a widow, and tricked my mother, an illiterate woman, into signing a transfer deed, and took the store for himself. When I grew up and realized I was cheated, I went to my second uncle to ask for an explanation. My second uncle said bluntly that my mother was stupid to be cheated, and now that the things were in his hands, she couldn't give them up. I was so angry that I wanted to burn down the store and let him get nothing." The tall and thin man said unwillingly, "I knew I couldn't escape before I did this. Even if you kill me today, I won't regret it. My mother was sick, and I begged my second uncle to lend me some money, but he refused. If this store hadn't been cheated, my mother wouldn't have died of illness."
"Idiot." Chen Yong kicked him. "We have no right to interfere with how you treat your uncle. Put down this fire. There are so many shops and houses around. Aren't they innocent? If we hadn't arrived in time, who knows how many people would have died."
"Send it to the Jingzhao government office." Song Ruize said calmly, "Tell the prosecutor there the truth about what happened here."
"Yes." Chen Yong took his men and took the man away.
Song Ruize turned around, and when he saw the bright girl standing not far away, his cold eyes changed as if the warm sunshine seeped into them.
Qin Huiyin waved at him, her smile as bright and charming as the morning sun.
Song Ruize was about to step forward, but several people stopped him and started crying to him.
"Sir, our house has become like this, what should we do? We are all poor people, our family can hardly afford to build a house like this. Sir, please help us."
"Sir, the military is only responsible for putting out fires. After putting out the fires, they will just walk away. What should we do?"
Song Ruize was stopped by the people, his brows furrowed. He looked up in the direction of Qin Huiyin, but saw that no one was there.
"Someone come..."
"Commander Song."
"You handle this matter for them according to the court's rules." Song Ruize said, "Make sure you arrange it well."
This fire was man-made, and the court would definitely not be responsible for paying for it. Since it was man-made, of course we should find the source of the disaster. When the case is heard, if the boss really occupied my brother's shop, then the remaining value of the shop will be used to compensate the people affected by the disaster. Therefore, this case must be handed over to the military department.
After Song Ruize squeezed out of the crowd, he did not see Qin Huiyin. He wondered if he was dazzled and felt disappointed, but someone patted him on the shoulder.
A familiar fragrance wafted into his nose.
It was because of this aura that he didn't make an instinctive counterattack. If someone else had hit him from behind, he would have been greeted with either a dagger or a grappling move.
He turned around and saw a bouquet of flowers. The flowers moved down, revealing a girl's face that was brighter than the flowers.
Qin Huiyin looked at him with a smile: "Is this good looking? I just saw an old man selling it on the roadside. This capital city is indeed the capital, even ordinary people are so elegant."
Song Ruize touched her hair: "When did you arrive?"
"Just arrived. No, I came here after I washed up." Qin Huiyin turned around. "Does it look good? It fits me well."
Song Ruize smiled, thought of something, took her wrist and walked towards the tea room not far away.
He booked a private room, and after entering the room, he looked at Qin Huiyin carefully.
"You've grown taller." She has also grown up in appearance. She is no longer the little girl with baby fat, but a bright young girl.
"You've grown taller too. How come you've grown taller? You're a head taller than me!" Qin Huiyin stood on tiptoe. "Brother, we finally meet again."
Song Ruize reached out and hugged her.
Qin Huiyin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable listening to Song Ruize's strong heartbeat.
Maybe we've all grown up, and it feels a bit awkward to be as intimate as before.
She wanted to pull out of his arms, but Song Ruize held her too tightly, so she let him do it.
Everyone was very happy to see each other again after a long separation, and some of them lost their composure for a moment.
"You still have work to do here, I'll go back and wait for you. We'll have a reunion dinner tonight, brother, come over too!"
