Chapter 432: General, I'm Late
There is a saying: not in his position, not in his government.
In Guo Dan's view, it is not his job to deal with Li Rusong's problem, and he is more willing to spend energy to deal with the problems of gambling houses and loan sharks.
But unfortunately, he and Li Rusong are the same boss, that is, Wanli.
Why Li Rusong was transferred to Weihui Mansion is because Li Rusong does not like to abide by the etiquette of civil dignity and martial inferiority, and is always impeached by the officials, and Weihui Mansion happens to have no officials, so Wanli transferred him to Weihui Mansion, but it has only been a long time, and if there is a problem, Wanli will go crazy.
It's just that Guo Dan, who was passing by, had to change his plan temporarily, and he had to solve this problem as soon as possible.
But he didn't have a clue for a while, and Wu Gui also knew that he had arrived at Weihui Mansion and was tired of traveling, so he didn't force him, and left after sitting for a while.
After sending Wu Gui away, Guo Dan learned from the maid that Aunt Xu was in the garden behind, so he went straight to the small garden.
At this time, it is the season of flowers, and when I arrive at the door, a faint fragrance comes to my face.
When I entered the garden, I saw that there were a lot of strange flowers and plants planted in it, but even though the flowers were beautiful, I couldn't hide the wonderful figure in the flowers.
As soon as he entered the door, Aunt Xu noticed it, and when she turned her head, she really made the strange flowers and plants in the garden dim.
No wonder everyone thinks she's my wife, and this look is so good for me. Guo Dan no longer remembered those misunderstandings in his heart, walked forward, looked sideways at those potted plants, and said with a smile: "I hope these strange flowers and plants are worth staying here for a few more days." ”
Aunt Xu sighed faintly: "Although these flowers and plants are beautiful, they are stained with blood. ”
With that, she turned around and walked towards the small pavilion in the middle without hesitation.
Guo Dan was noncommittal, came to the pavilion, sat opposite Aunt Xu, and told Aunt Xu about Li Rusong.
Aunt Xu smiled slightly: "That Li Rusong has a prominent family background, and he has been favored by the Son of Heaven, so he naturally developed the character of self-reliance, and I am not surprised that he did this kind of thing." ”
Guo Dan said: "But I have to solve this problem, otherwise, this will cause trouble to Your Majesty, and even affect the Weihui Mansion." ”
Aunt Xu said: "If you want to make him submit, it is not very difficult, you just need to tell him that you want to escort him back to Beijing and hand him over to His Majesty, and you can force him to submit, because he knows that once he becomes a prisoner, it will bring shame on their Li family, but this is not a long-term solution, but it will attract his revenge." If you can't transfer him away, you can only move him with affection, understand with reason, and convince him to do it once and for all. ”
Guo Dan asked bluntly: "So how should I move it with affection and reason?" ”
Aunt Xu smiled: "You are much better at this kind of thing than I do." ”
"How so?"
"Aren't I just sitting here?"
Guo Dan was stunned, laughed, and thought, are you praising me or boasting.
At this moment, a maid walked in and said, "Proprietor, there are a few gentry outside who want to see you." ”
"Even if you hang yourself, you have to make people take a breath!"
Guo Dan rolled his eyes and complained.
Aunt Xu just gave him two helpless looks.
It's fascinating!
......
When I returned to the hall, I saw Wang Yu, Huang Zimin, and Xu Wenyan sitting in the hall.
Guo Dan arched his hand again and again: "I just arrived here, and the three gentry came to the door in person, Guo Dan was really flattered." ”
Wang Yu said very bluntly: "We came here to discuss something important with you. ”
When it's time to be polite, you guys are not polite again, play me with your heart! Guo Dan sat down and asked, "But is it for Mr. Li?" ”
Wang Yu was surprised: "You already know? ”
Guo Dan nodded and said, "Your father-in-law has already told me, I don't know how the three of you will deal with this matter." ”
"If I knew, I wouldn't have come to you." Wang Yu waved his hand.
Xu Wenyan said: "The rules of this Weihui Mansion are all set by you, but the rules do not explain whether our court has the power to hold officials accountable. ”
Huang Zimin added: "As far as the system of Weihui Mansion is concerned, we have the right to judge all illegal matters, but as far as the imperial court system is concerned, we are just ordinary people, how can we judge the court officials." It is precisely because you did not understand it at the beginning that it led to today's disaster. ”
Wang Yu sighed: "We wanted to ask you to come over first to discuss and then make a decision, but the litigation court forced the court to order with human and physical evidence, and we were also forced to have no choice but to order Li Rusong to be arrested." ”
These three old men said very bluntly, we are innocent of this matter, and when the court blames us, we will not be held responsible.
Of course, they are not blindly throwing the pot, because they are just ordinary squires and gentry, their power is given by the contract, but this contract cannot bind the court officials, they arrest Li Rusong, strictly speaking, it is of course illegal, in the final analysis, it is the law of the court is the greatest.
They unanimously agreed that the responsibility lies with Guo Dan.
Guo Dan nodded and said, "Three of you, please rest assured, I know that you are not to blame for this matter, I will come forward to solve it and improve the provisions in this regard." ”
"That's good!"
......
As soon as Wang Yu and the others left, Chen Ran and Xue Wenqing, two litigators, rushed here.
Chen Ran was one of the few talents who chose to support Guo Dan at the beginning, and he was also one of the first batch of litigators.
And this Xue Wenqing is a good friend of Jiang Yinglan, who once served in Shaanxi with Jiang Yinglan, but later returned to his hometown to teach because he did not want to be in the same stream with those people. He was against Guo Dan at first, but later he became very supportive of this contract system, and repeatedly went to the court to find jobs, and even did not ask for a salary, but Guo Dan refused.
But he was not discouraged and kept applying, until Guo Dan came back to Weihui Mansion for the second time, when the litigation court was indeed short of people, Guo Dan gave some places, and Xue Wenqing entered the litigation court, but he soon emerged in the litigation court.
This incident, he is the main force, after all, most of the litigators are some talents and scholars who have not entered the office, and in the face of Li Rusong, they are somewhat scared, but Xue Wenqing has been an official, and he hates this kind of privilege very much, so he resigned angrily.
He must not allow this kind of thing to exist in Weihui Mansion, if he hadn't pushed it behind, this matter wouldn't have progressed so quickly.
The two of them came to ask Guo Dan that Li Rusong must be punished, and he must not tolerate adultery.
"You two have a point." Guo Dan nodded, and suddenly changed his words: "Since this is the case, the two of you should not come to me, I am just a businessman, and I have no right to interfere in this matter." ”
Xue Wenqing said: "I also thought so, but what the court said is not unreasonable, there is no explicit provision that the court can sentence the court officials, and the system of Weihui Mansion was drawn up by you, of course you have the responsibility to improve the system." ”
Guo Dan glanced at Xue Wenqing and said, "Your name is Xue Wenqing?" ”
Xue Wenqing, as an elder, was a little unhappy when he heard this, but he didn't care about it and said, "Exactly." ”
Guo Dan asked again: "I heard that you have been an official before?" ”
Xue Wenqing said: "I was an official in Shaanxi for a few years. ”
Guo said lightly: "Then you should understand the seriousness of this matter better than me?" ”
"Of course I do."
Xue Wenqing said: "If Li Rusong is not convicted this time, then the entire system of Weihui Mansion will be seriously damaged. ”
"It's worthy of being an official, that is, he can speak." Guo Dan sighed twice, thinking to himself, with their attitude, if Li Rusong is not punished, Weihui Mansion may really fail.
Xue Wenqing smiled and asked, "Is this the reason why there are no officials in Weihui Mansion?" ”
"Hey! I didn't say that. ”
Guo Dan hurriedly stopped, thinking, you are a little expert in buttoning your hat, this litigator is simply tailor-made for you, no wonder you deserve to be happy. He said, "Okay, I'll give you an explanation for this." ”
Although the two sides have their own opinions, the purpose of their coming here is the same, that is, to let Guo Dan take responsibility.
Guo Dan didn't want to deal with them, but the rise and fall of Weihui Mansion was his core interests, and he couldn't ignore it, so the next day, he came to the picket house accompanied by Wang Yu and Xue Wenqing.
It's also funny to say, without the permission of the court and the litigation court, he has no right to see Li Rusong.
He has no power, but he has to be responsible.
But who asked him to formulate this bullshit system, and he made an appointment... Tears also have to...
"Huh? Isn't Li Rusong locked up in a cell? ”
Guo Dan glanced at the small courtyard in front of him, and then at Yan Shen.
Xue Wenqing immediately looked at Wang Yu and said, "You have to ask them about the court." ”
Wang Yu said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, at this time, the old man has explained many times, and I don't know whether the court has the power to judge the court officials, if you are dissatisfied, you can file a complaint against us, otherwise, you have to obey the court's order." ”
This old man is also an official, and as an elder, he is not afraid of Xue Wenqing.
Guo Dan said distressedly: "Don't argue with the two of you, I'm just asking." Okay, okay, I'll go in and have a look, and you won't go in, so you won't have trouble. ”
Xue Wenqing said: "Then how can it be done, who can guarantee that you will not be in cahoots with Li Rusong?" ”
"Then you can solve it yourself, I don't care."
"Don't, don't."
Wang Yu hurriedly stopped Guo Dan, pointed at Xue Wenqing and said, "You don't have to worry about him, this matter is under the control of my court, and he doesn't have the power." As he spoke, he said to Yan Shen: "Open the door, open the door." ”
Yan Shen immediately ordered someone to open the courtyard door.
Guo Dan took Yang Feixu into the courtyard, and saw a burly man sitting in the hall from a distance, about forty years old, with a dignified body and a dignified appearance, dressed in light blue satin pajamas, with his chest and breasts exposed, and his right leg bent on the chair.
"General!"
Guo Dan suddenly exclaimed, startling Yang Feixu behind him, and seeing this guy flicking his front placket, he ran into the hall, and slid in front of Li Rusong, and saluted with a fist: "Guo Dan is one step late, let the general suffer, it is really a crime that deserves death." ”
Yang Feixu rolled his eyes slightly and quickly followed.
"Guo Dan?" When Li Rusong heard this, he couldn't help but look at Guo Dan and asked, "You are Guo Dan?" ”
"Exactly."
Guo Dan hugged his fists and saluted.
Li Rusong snorted: "It turned out to be a little baby who didn't have any hair. ”
Guo Dan said with a smiling face: "Let the general see a smile." ”
Li Rusong squinted: "Are you here to let Lao Tzu out?" ”
"Yes, yes." Guo Dan nodded again and again.
"It's boring."
Li Rusong said proudly: "I thought that those literati could do anything to Lao Tzu, but I never thought that Lao Tzu would be let out." ”
"Generals, don't be like them." Guo said with a smile.
Li Rusong sneered, stood up, and strode out the door.
The implication was obvious, and he would not give up on it.
"General, please stay."
Guo Dan shouted.
Li Rusong tilted his head slightly, and glanced at it, "Is there anything else?" ”
Guo Dan walked up to Li Rusong and said: "General, that's the case, I'm just a businessman, I have no right to interfere in the court and the court, the reason why I was able to come in was because I scared them, saying that they had no right to judge the general, such a prominent family background as the general, and the past and present have made great military achievements, in the whole world, the only one who can judge the general is Your Majesty." ”
Li Rusong nodded, this is more reasonable, what is Lao Tzu's identity, even those little shrimps, dare to judge Lao Tzu, but it is really beyond his strength.
Guo Dan continued: "Therefore, I request that the general be escorted back to Beijing and judged by His Majesty personally. But the general, please rest assured, the general only needs to get on the prisoner car in the territory of Weihui Mansion and leave Weihui Mansion, they will not be able to control it, and the general will be free. ”
