Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"What? What do you want?"

Guo Ye casually handed over a golden bean and said, "Brother, I'm sorry just now, this piece of gold is an apology to you."

"You can't even have gold... huh? It's really gold! It's all right, you've got a nice face, I, Wei Yuanhe, forgive you."

Guo Ye handed over another golden bean, "Brother Wei, I want to ask you something."

"what's up?"

"What's the matter with this family? Why are they crying so badly?"

Wei Yuanhe sighed slightly, and said, "Oh! What a crime!"

Chapter 1713 A Little Thing

For the sake of gold, Wei Yuanhe had a lot of fun talking, and said: "The surname of this family is Xu, and the head of the family is Xu Yuanhua. Xu Yuanhua is only 20 years old this year, and he married his wife Xingshi. In addition, he has a 14-year-old sister, Xiao It's called Liniang."

"Could it be that the head of the Xu family has passed away?"

"Well, it's good that he died. The problem is that he didn't die. Let me tell you this, Xu Yuanhua's parents died when he was 14 years old. Fortunately, he had money at home, which didn't delay his marriage. But, because With no one in charge, this Xu Yuanhua has been infected with the bad habit of playing games, hanging out with a bunch of rascals all day long."

Guo Ye said: "Oh, I understand. Is it because Xu Yuanhua lost money today, and the wife at home is not forgiving?"

"It's good to lose money." Wei Yuanhe said: "Look at this yard, this house, how particular! Old Xu's family is rich, even if they lose a thousand or eight hundred guan, it won't hurt their bones. Let me tell you clearly, Xu Yuanhua didn't lose money, he lost someone."

"Loser... loser?"

"That's right. To be precise, Xu Yuanhua lost both his wife and younger sister. No one came to the house to attract people, so these two little ladies are fighting for the sky. We neighbors can't help but look at it strangely." Yes, this blocked the Xu Mansion, preventing those people from getting out."

Guo Ye frowned, and said, "Listening to what you said, Xu Yuanhua is not short of money, so why did he lose his wife and sister? This is too unreasonable."

"Hey! Isn't this something obvious? It's clear that someone has taken a fancy to his wife and sister and set him up. If the old Xu's family has no money, Xu Yuanhua lost his wife and is willing to bet. I don’t want to meddle in other people’s business. The problem is that the old Xu’s family is rich. They are rich, but they are not allowed to use the money to pay off their debts. They insist on taking away their wives and sisters. Isn’t this an obvious blackmail? ? That’s why we draw our swords to help when we see injustice.”

Guo Ye said: "It's not a problem for you to just block the door. Everyone has a family and a business. You can block it today, you can block it tomorrow, and you can block it the day after tomorrow... But you can't block it forever, right? This is not the solution to the problem."

"Then what do you say?"

Guo Ye said proudly: "Report to the officials! According to the laws of our Great Tang Dynasty, gambling is a serious crime. It is clearly written in the "Law of Zhenguan" that anyone who participates in gambling and gets stolen goods that are less than five horses worth of silk, each One hundred sticks. Those who reach the price of five pieces of silk will be sentenced to one year in prison as compared to theft. Xu Yuanhua's wife and younger sister are involved, and their gambling capital must be more than five pieces of silk. Then this person involved in gambling , at least one year in prison. As long as you report to the police, the problem will be solved."

Back then, Guo Ye was unfamiliar with the law and wrote down the gambling documents.Cui Hanjin of the Boling Cui family used Guo Ye's handle to force His Majesty Li Er to sentence Guo Ye to 2 years in prison.If His Majesty Li Er hadn't deliberately favored him, Guo Ye would have suffered greatly.Therefore, Guo Ye was particularly impressed with this legal provision, and he could simply recite it backwards.

However, Wei Yuanhe was not interested in Guo Ye's suggestion, he shook his head like a rattle, and said, "Report to an official? No! No! No! We are all honest people of our duty, how can we report to an official? "

"Duty? To be honest? What does this have to do with whether to report to the official?"

"That's a big deal. We also know that gambling is illegal, but isn't there such a saying? It's called willing to gamble and admit defeat. Originally, these scoundrels deliberately set people up, and it was their fault. But if we report this Officer. Doesn’t that mean we can’t afford to lose?”

Yang Fengyi said: "Everyone is going to rob people, and you still care about your own reputation, it's simply inexplicable."

Wei Yuanhe looked Yang Fengyi up and down a few times, and said, "My lord, from the way you are dressed, you are either rich or expensive. You are not from our Changshoufang, are you?"

"Well, you guessed right."

"That's it. You grew up completely in a honeypot, and you don't know the hardships of us ordinary people, let alone the dangers of this world. Well, we don't care about our reputation, so we went to report to the officials. The problem is Can we win it?"

Guo Yedao: "It is clearly written in the "Law of Zhenguan". This matter is up to you, why can't you win? Take ten thousand steps back and say that the official is a corrupt official. The gate of the yamen opens to the south. Don't come in if you have a reason and no money. So what Like? Isn’t the old Xu’s family rich? If you use the money, you still win the lawsuit.”

Wei Yuanhe said: "You only know one thing and don't know the other. Yes, the old Xu family is rich, but these scoundrels are powerful."

As he spoke, he pointed to the sky and said: "There are people above! If there is a way, officials and officials protect each other. The old Xu family has money but no power. How can they fight against them? In my opinion, it's okay not to go to court. In the lawsuit, these two delicate ladies must be handed over to those rascals."

Guo Ye was not happy when he heard this, and said, "Brother Wei, I don't agree with what you said. Do you know who the current Chang'an Ling is?"

"I do not know."

"Uh... okay. If you don't know, let me tell you. The current Chang'an order is our Tang Dynasty's Minister of Rites Qin Guogong and the leader of the Weifu General Guo Ye Guo Ziyi. That is a very clean and honest official, killing corrupt officials and eliminating bullies. Jealousy is like hatred. It is impossible for officials and officials to protect each other. You listen to me, and you are right to report to officials."

"Just pull it down!" A person next to him spoke, and said: "My brother-in-law is from the Chang'an government office, I heard him say, this Mr. Guo, hehe..."

Guo Ye's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Could it be that he said Guo Ye is a corrupt official?"

"Corrupt officials can't even be said to be a wooden official. Since he was appointed as the Chang'an order, he has never been in the government office. You said, this Mr. Guo doesn't even go to the government office, so he can't get along with him. Are upright officials involved?"

"This..." Guo Ye was suddenly speechless!

Even if he could excuse it by saying that he was on holiday recently, but today is not a holiday, so he still didn't go to the government office!

He had no choice but to say: "Maybe Mr. Guo has multiple jobs and is busy with official duties, so he hasn't taken care of coming to the Chang'an government office yet. I reckon that he should come in just these two days. You go to the Chang'an government office." Report, that's right."

"Who are you? If you tell us to sue, we will sue? A lawsuit is such a big matter, how can you listen to the opinion of a stranger like you? Put it lightly! When you touch your lips, you will Let's go to the lawsuit. What if we lose the lawsuit? Can we still ask you for compensation? You are just watching the fun and don't think it's a big deal. "

Guo Ye took out the waist badge of the yamen of the leading army's government office, and said, "Look! Look! Do you recognize what this is?"

"Lingjunwei Mansion... Oh, it turns out that you are an official in the yamen of the Lingjunwei Mansion... You are so disrespectful and disrespectful! This... I drank a lot of wine before I left the house just now! I didn't say anything inappropriate just now Are you drunk?"

"No drunk talk."

"It's almost there."

"It means that Qin Guogong Guo Ye is a wooden official or something. Coincidentally, Qin Guogong is also serving as the general of the army and guards, and he is in charge. Your opinion is very important, and I will tell him."

"Oh, don't, don't, don't, my lord, please forgive me..." This man was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he was about to kneel down.

Guo Ye quickly stopped him, and said: "Don't kneel, don't kneel! Old man, I was just joking with you, why do you take it seriously? With my status, I am not qualified to speak in front of Qin Guogong." .Besides, even if I can talk to you, the Duke of Qin is always busy, so how can he care about such a trivial matter?"

"Please forgive me, I will never dare to chew my tongue again. Look at what happened today..."

"Of course I'll leave this matter to me today! Let me tell you, it's a trivial matter. I don't need Duke Qin to step in, and I can repel the ugliness with just a few words!"

Chapter 1714 Redoing Mrs. Feng

Holding his waist card, Guo Ye yelled loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way! The officials from the yamen of the leading army guard are here, hurry up and get out of the way..."

These days, the authority of the government is still very strong.The crowd stepped aside to let Guo Ye and Yang Fengyi pass.

When Guo and Yang came to the main hall, they saw two beautiful women crying. It seemed that they were Xu Yuanhua's wife and sister.Surrounding the two women, there were four or five men.These people are all disheveled, with ruffian faces, and they don't look like good people at first glance.

Looking to the side, there is a sad-faced man sitting on a chair and sighing, no need to ask, this is Xu Yuanhua who lost his wife and sister because of gambling.

As soon as Guo Ye entered the house, a rascal came forward and said, "Why did you come here! Hurry up and drive away those troublemakers, don't delay our men's romantic and happy tonight."

Guo Yehan said in a cold voice: "I don't need you to teach me how to do things. You..." He pointed at Xu Yuanhua and said, "Tell me what happened today?"

Xu Yuanhua said: "Officer, you have to decide for me! I gambled with them, but I only lost a thousand dollars, and they will take my wife and sister away. I am willing to give the money, you Tell them, let me pay for it..."

The rascal said: "It is not impossible to pay the money. We will take these two little ladies away today, and you can use the money to redeem them in the next three to five days. We don't want your interest. You don't have to trouble the official." gone."

"How is that possible?"
