Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Ma Yuanju was taken aback, and said: "The matter has reached such a serious point? What should we do?"

Guo Ye said: "Brother Ma, please don't worry. This is just a guess by someone in Guo. We don't know exactly where the matter has developed."

"If there is such a sign, it will be terrible! Qin Guogong, now His Majesty's safety is entirely entrusted to you. You must immediately enter the palace to face the saint, and investigate the matter to the bottom. Please!"

Guo Ye hesitated and said, "You want me to investigate His Majesty? Brother Ma, I know that many people don't like me recently. But with our friendship, you don't expect me to seek death by myself, do you?"

Ma Yuanju said helplessly: "Of course I know that this trip is very dangerous. But for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, please encourage the Duke of Qin to give it a try! Kong said to be benevolent, Meng said to revolt, and he sacrificed his life for righteousness. It is now! Qin Guogong, please."

Guo Ye shook his head again and again, and said, "No, no, absolutely no! I won't do this kind of thing! It's what you guys do. I, Guo Ye, don't get involved."

Speaking of this, Guo Ye sneered and said: "Don't think I don't know. In your minds, I, Guo Ye, can be called the number one courtier of the Tang Dynasty. Why? Now that the Tang Dynasty is in danger, you Helping a loyal minister not sacrifice his life for righteousness, but asking me, a treacherous minister, to die?"

"This... is mainly the death of the old attendant. Everyone thinks that you are to blame, and His Majesty blindly protects you, which is why there is such a misunderstanding. However, now, these are nothing, as long as you can... ..."

"How can it be?"

Ma Yuanju thought about it carefully, and Guo Ye had to do a lot of work.First of all, Guo Ye must find a way to persuade His Majesty to speak out and invite Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda back.Next, Guo Ye was asked to find out the truth about the drastic change in His Majesty Li Er's temperament.It would be best to find out who was behind the scenes.

These two things are not only very dangerous, but also related to the stability of the country.Using the word "as long as" to describe it is really far from enough.

For such an important matter, it is impossible to entrust it to others, and only by entrusting it to Guo Ye can there be a glimmer of hope for success.

Unexpectedly, the treacherous minister who was shouted and beaten by everyone a few days ago has now become the key figure to save the stability of the country.Good fortune tricks people, as soon as it happens!

Then how to persuade Guo Ye?

Ma Yuanju sorted out his thoughts, and said carefully, "Qin Guogong, you are willing to take risks, turn the tide, and save the country from danger. You are a great hero who protects the sky."

"so what?"

"As a righteous person, we will naturally not let the heroes feel chilled, and we will definitely publicize your achievements and give Qin a fair name!"

"Rectify the name? How to rectify the name? Are you going to leak His Majesty's unification plan?"

"Of course not. Qin Guogong, you don't have to worry about such trivial matters. I, Ma Yuanju, am sure that we will not leak our conversation today and make you the number one loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty!"

"I am the number one loyal minister? What about the old servant Wang Gui who died because of me?"

Ma Yuanju's expression darkened, and he said: "For the sake of the Tang Dynasty, I can only feel sorry for the old servant!"

Guo Ye said: "This condition is really good, I, Guo Ye, agreed."

"Then please ask Duke Qin to enter the palace to face the saint as soon as possible."

"Don't worry! Before I enter the palace, let's make things clear. I can trust you. But the others... How can you guarantee that they won't cross the river and tear down the bridge?"

"Isn't this thousand officials' book enough?"

"Not enough, not enough. The reason why they chose you to meet Mr. Guo is not because you have the highest prestige, but because you and I have the best friendship. When they cross the river and tear down the bridge, you have no ability to stop them. In other words, you Promises are meaningless."

"What about Qin Guogong's opinion?"

"Let's pay first and then deliver!"

"What's the meaning of this statement?"

"You first rectify my name, and then someone Guo will enter the palace to face the saint!"

Ma Yuan raised his face and said, "Is your request... a little too much?"

"Too much! Of course too much! You don't have to agree, let's break it up. Anyway, Mr. Guo has a good relationship with Queen Seondeok of Silla. At worst, when the court becomes chaotic, Mr. Guo will go out to sea by boat and avoid living in Silla. !"

"You... I, Ma Zhou, really misjudged you!"

Guo Ye sneered and said, "Brother Ma, please explain clearly, in your mind, what is my image, Guo Ye?"

"This..." Ma Yuanju sighed, and said: "In the past, Ma always thought that Duke Qin was a pillar of the Tang Dynasty, although he had various faults, but he was worthy of integrity."

"Sure?"

"Why are you lying to me!"

"Then recently, because of the case of Dade Temple, Guo's reputation has plummeted. Can Brother Ma speak for Guo?"

Ma Zhou blushed, and said, "That's not true. However, I have my reasons..."

"I, Guo Ye, understand your difficulties. As the long history of the Jin Palace, because of that rumor, it would be good if you didn't throw stones at me. How could you speak for me?"

"Thank you Qin Guogong for your understanding."

"Then here comes the problem. Although Mr. Guo is a good character in your mind, you still let other people slander someone for the sake of King Jin Qiansui. Now Mr. Guo finally has a chance to turn around for himself. reputation, what position do you have to stop it?"

"How can this be confused!" Ma Zhou said angrily, "What you did just now was to blackmail everyone with the safety of the Tang Dynasty. It is clear that you are disregarding the overall situation. What does this have to do with Ma?"

Guo Ye shook his head again and again, and said: "No! No! No! Brother Ma, you are wrong. If you want to talk about business, let's talk about business. If you want to talk about friendship, let's talk about friendship. I can't talk about business, and you Talk about friendship. I'm talking about friendship, and you want to talk about business again!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Brother Ma, if we only talk about friendship, you must have done something wrong to my surname Guo. Now you have no position to force someone from Guo to make concessions."

"What about business?"

"It's easier to talk about business! Mr. Guo has already proposed the conditions. If you think the conditions are acceptable, you can agree. If you think the conditions are too harsh, you don't have to agree. We can't make a deal. There is no need. Let’s talk about Guo’s character.”

Ma Yuanju always felt that there was something wrong with Guo Ye's words, but he was unable to refute.

He pondered for a while, and said: "However, even if I agree to Qin Guogong's conditions, it will take a long time to rectify your name. The situation is urgent now, and there is really no delay. Can you accommodate me?"

"Since there is no delay, brother Ma please hurry up and make arrangements! All in all, I, Guo Ye, don't let the rabbit see the eagle!"

Ma Yuanju gritted his teeth and said, "Then you are not afraid that I will rectify your name first, and then regret it after the matter is completed?"

Guo Ye said: "I believe that among the princes of the court, there are not many villains who turn their backs on their promises!"

"Then I don't understand. Just now you were worried about everyone crossing rivers and tearing down bridges. Why do you think everyone won't go back on their word now?"

"These two things look the same, but they are actually very different. Since someone Guo has successfully persuaded His Majesty, everyone's goal has been achieved. Then as long as you don't do anything, you can cross the river and tear down the bridge! Could it be that someone Guo Can you still find someone to make a theory based on the list?"

"This……"

"On the contrary, if everyone justifies Guo's name first, and then regrets it later, there will be too much to do. Guo believes that not many people will do this kind of thing that hurts the enemy one thousand and self-defeating eight hundred. .”

"Mr. Qin is easy to calculate! But, don't you think it's too petty to bargain like this for Datang Sheji and us?"

Guo Ye said seriously: "It's not a bargain with you, but a bargain with you!"
