Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Thinking of this, Guo Ye suddenly opened his eyes and sat up straight, and shouted to the groom outside the curtain:

"Stop the car, turn around, and go to Lord Censor Gao Shilian's residence first!"

"Yu..."

da da da da...

The carriage stopped halfway, approached the house and refused to enter, turned around and went straight to Chongyi Square where Gao Shilian's residence was located.

Chapter 520 Uncle Meets Nephew

Guo Ye lingered in Gao Shilian's mansion, chatted with his old boss and honorary editor-in-chief of "Chang'an Weekly" for a while, then got up and left.

Exactly what Guo Ye and Gao Shilian talked about, except for the two parties, no one should know.

Three days later, Gu Weiyong and Mr. Mu invited Guo Ye to meet in a tea shop, and handed over the account book that Guo Ye had previously ordered to make in his hands.

Guo Ye took a rough look, damn it, Gu Weiyong, a stuttering guy, if he doesn't do it, he will be wiped out if he does it!

Don't look at this guy's stuttering, but he is really ruthless. This is not to frame Gong Ji, but to punish Gong Ji to death.

The account books not only clearly recorded the criminal evidence of Gong Jiqiao accumulating money and collecting bribes in the past three years, such as birthday banquets, concubine banquets, mother's birthday, and the anniversary of the death of the father. In the name of moving to a new house, fifteen banquets were held, all kinds of banquets were held, and all methods of raising money were used to the extreme.

Guo Ye looked at the date, date, location, and even who sent money to Gong Ji, and he remembered it clearly.

It can be seen that the records in this area should be true in all likelihood.

After reading this part, Guo Ye turned to the other part of the material again. It only recorded that Gong Ji filled his own pockets and secretly sold dozens of armored equipment in more than a dozen treasuries of the Ministry of War under the identity of Kusi Langzhong. .

What is reselling five hundred catties of refined iron, what is privately selling thousands of bows and arrows and thousands of iron clusters, what is stealing six hundred horizontal knives, and the last one even says that Gong Ji often leads the merchants in the Western Regions, Goguryeo, and Dongying in the East and West. , and Tubo merchants dressed up in disguise to visit the treasury of the Ministry of War of the Tang Dynasty.

What does this point mean?It shows that Gong Ji is suspected of being connected with foreign countries for money.

Soldiers are the most important weapon of the country!

The Ministry of National Defense of a dignified country is such a highly confidential place, especially the weapon and ammunition depot managed by Kusi is the most important thing. How can foreign businessmen be allowed to visit it at will?

Based on this alone, it is not an exaggeration to kill Gong Ji ten times.

However, are these all true?

At this time, Guo Ye also figured out whether these were true or not.

Immediately, he closed the account book and asked, "You two, which accounts are true and which are false?"

Just as Gu Weiyong was about to explain, the Master Mu who was next to him immediately rushed to talk: "Master Guo, didn't you say it? It's true and false and sometimes false! Once some criminal evidence is confirmed, Gong Ji may never be able to stand up again."

Seeing Mr. Mu's sinister smile, Guo Ye was sure in his heart that this account book was definitely full of parallel imports, and the fiction was greater than the truth!

But if Gong Ji is damned, he is too cruel to collect money. If he doesn't get rid of it for a day, he will become a moth of the country sooner or later.

Take it as a scourge for His Majesty Li Er and the Great Tang Empire!

Besides, if Gong Ji is not eliminated, Gu Weiyong will not be able to rise to the position, so he will be a little weak in the military department.If Gu Weiyong can control Kusi, then once his military commander and Kusi join forces, Wang Junshi is still a shitty servant?

Immediately, he solemnly put the account book into his arms, stretched out his hand to Master Mu and asked, "Where's the anonymous report letter?"

After hearing this, Master Mu took off his boots and took out a crumpled letter from inside, and handed it over carefully, saying: "Here, it has been written long ago. This time, the official has spent a lot of time writing this anonymous letter. It's really full of voice and emotion..."

"I rely on!"

Guo Ye covered his nose with his right hand, pinched the corner of the letter with his left hand, and said with some nausea: "Master Mu, you are too disgusting, aren't you? You actually hid him in your stinky feet."

Master Mu smiled awkwardly, and said: "As the saying goes, if the king loses his secrets, he will lose his ministers, and if his ministers lose his secrets, he will lose his integrity. This matter is of great importance, and the lower officials must be careful, right?"

Guo Ye shook his head, endured his nausea, put the letter in his sleeve pocket, and muttered, "I'm too lazy to grind my teeth with you!"

Then he raised his hand to Gu Weiyong and said goodbye: "Master Gu, you go back first. If it is not necessary in the next few days, you and I had better not meet each other. No matter what happened to Kusi these days, you should just treat him like that." It’s fine if you don’t know. Let’s go!”

After all, Guo Ye left the table first and left the tea shop in a hurry.

……

After about a while, Guo Ye did not appear in person, but sent someone to beat drums outside Yushitai's yamen, and sent the anonymous report letter and account books to Yushitai, and presented them to Gao Shilian, the doctor of the Yushitai.

After Gao Shilian received the anonymous report letter and the account books, he took a closer look, but he did not notify the other principals in Yushitai immediately, nor did he immediately call all the supervisory censors to discuss the matter.

Gao Shilian quietly brought the account books and the anonymous report letter out of Yushitai, got into the carriage and went to the residence of Zhengqing of Dali Temple, his good nephew Sun Wuji.

At this time, the time for the upper court was long gone, and the eldest grandson Wuji of the next court was used to handling government affairs at home, and seldom worked in the Yamen of Dali Temple.

So when Gao Shilian drove to Changsun Wuji's house, he, the nephew, naturally ran out of the house to greet his uncle respectfully.

For the eldest grandson Wuji, uncle Gao Shilian is more like a father than a father for their brothers and sisters.

If Gao Shilian hadn't raised their brothers and sisters to become adults and became talents, if Gao Shilian hadn't had the insight to recognize talents, and married his younger sister to Li Shimin who had not yet made a fortune, how could the eldest grandson family have a day of reappearing the glory of the old family?

When nephews and uncles met, the eldest grandson Wuji, an important minister at the court, naturally greeted his uncle Gao Shilian with the courtesy of his nephew.

Gao Shilian hurriedly helped him up, and only whispered in his ear: "Wuji, is there a place for secret talks? I have something important to see you!"

Changsun Wuji is just over forty years old, although he is not tall, he always gives people the feeling of being shrewd and capable.

Hearing his uncle's whispering, he immediately raised his guard, nodded and said, "Come with me, uncle, go to my study to talk."

After finishing speaking, he signaled the servants around him to retreat, and then he personally led Gao Shilian to his study, and dispersed all the servants near the study, not allowing others to approach within a hundred steps.

After closing the doors and windows in the study room, the study room was slightly dark, Changsun Wuji lit a candlestick, illuminating the whole study room.

Then Gao Shilian was invited to sit down, and asked, "Uncle, you are so mysterious, what happened?"

Gao Shilian did not speak, but carefully took out the account book and anonymous report letter from his arms, put them on the table and pushed them forward gently, and pushed them to Changsun Wuji, and said in a low voice, "Look first, see Let's talk!"

Changsun Wuji put the candlestick on the table, first picked up the anonymous report letter and read it. After reading it, his brows were furrowed, and then he looked up the account book by himself. After reading it, he slammed the account book on the table. on, cursed in a deep voice:

"Gong Ji, the doctor of Kusi, should be punished!"

Gao Shilian seemed to have expected such a strong reaction from the eldest grandson Wuji, and he softly comforted: "Wuji, calm down, hehe, I am also very shocked after reading this report letter and account book. Besides the old man, you should be the second Anyone who saw this account book and report letter."

Changsun Wuji was a smart man, he understood immediately, and exclaimed: "Uncle, you mean that the account book and report letter have not been circulated in the Yushitai yet? Then how can you take out the Yushitai privately? It's against the rules." ah!"

Gao Shilian remained silent, and slightly nodded to confirm Changsun Wuji's guess.

Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered his uncle's mysterious look when he entered the mansion just now, and asked in a puzzled manner: "Uncle, this report letter reports on Gong Ji, and the items in the account book contain Gong Ji's crimes. This person is indeed guilty of serious crimes and deserves to be executed. But he is just a small Kusi doctor, why do you have to mobilize so many people?

Your Yushitai will impeach you tomorrow morning with the report letter and account books, and then the Ministry of Criminal Justice will go to check. Once the verification is true, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will arrest someone and join us in Dali Temple and your Yushitai. Isn’t the joint trial of the three divisions over?For a little Kusi doctor, asking you to come to my house in person is a bit of a big deal, isn't it? "

Gao Shilian sneered, twitched a few sparse beards around his mouth, shook his head and said: "Wuji, although Gong Ji is an official ordered by the court, he needs to be interrogated by three divisions before he can be convicted. But do you really think that uncle is so confused that he actually For a little Kusi doctor, he broke the rules of Yushitai and came to your mansion to let you see this account book and report letter?"
