Chapter 3: Visiting My Father in Prison
Damn, this guy is really turning his face faster than turning a book, Guo Zhiyuan will not be frightened by him, and three silver tickets are stuffed over, accompanied by a smile: "My lord, who has no parents, the son visits his father is filial piety, I am loyal and filial piety, and I hope that the adults will pity me for a piece ......of filial piety, and I will fulfill one or two, and my father is wrongfully imprisoned, if he can clear his name in the future, and the official will be reinstated, he will not forget the grace of the adult today."
The cell leader's face was cloudy, Guo Zhiyuan said anything about filial piety or unfilial piety in the first half of the paragraph, he naturally didn't pay attention to it, but the second half of the words made him have to weigh it, although he is just a cell head with no grade, but the Tao in the officialdom still knows something, this "demon book case" is clearly a struggle at the upper level, Guo Zhengyu is a former waiter of the Ministry of Rites, a member of the third grade, far from what he can afford to offend as a small cell leader, in case the real salted fish turns over, he collected money today but did not let his son go in to visit, I am afraid that there will be some trouble in the future. And these silver tickets in his hand are also worth his own money for several years, even if he honors his boss half and then divides some of his brothers, he can leave a lot, wouldn't it be a pity not to accept it.
Thinking of this, the cell boss gritted his teeth and lowered his voice and said: "This matter is too big, you wait here, wait for me to ask the Prison Lord, if the Prison Lord is approved, I will let you in, if the Prison Lord is not allowed, then everything is not mentioned, you leave quickly!" ……”。
Guo Zhiyuan also knew that this cell boss couldn't be the master, and it was already good to be able to do this part, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Then it's annoying adults, I'm here to wait for good news, if the prison lord doesn't allow it, I will leave immediately, and I will never entangle ...... again."
After a while, the cell boss came out again, lowered his voice and said: "Count you lucky, the prison master is approved, give you a stick of incense time, remember, don't make loud noises inside, don't look around, don't make trouble, don't linger, don't talk about everything you see to outsiders, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless!" ……”。
Guo Zhiyuan even made a promise, and the cell leader took Guo Zhiyuan into the prison, but the cell was set up under the ground, and as he walked down the stairs, countless dry hands stretched out from the prison, groaning. Moaning, roaring, and cursing came from the depths of the darkness from time to time, it could really be said that it was dark, eerie everywhere, making people's hairs stand on end, Guo Zhiyuan followed the cell head through the dark and terrifying passage, like walking through a labyrinth, and couldn't find the direction at all.
The cell boss took Guo Zhiyuan to a separate cell, patted him on the shoulder to make him stop, and whispered: "Guo Gongzi, Ling Zun is inside, remember what I told you, I will pick you up after a stick of incense, don't let me wait for it!" ……”。
Guo Zhiyuan agreed, and when the cell boss left, he looked into the cell, and saw a middle-aged man in prison uniform sitting on the ground, holding a thread-bound book in his hand, watching intently through the dim light of the oil lamp, and didn't even raise his head when he heard Guo Zhiyuan's footsteps.
This middle-aged man must be Guo Zhiyuan's cheap father Guo Zhengyu, with a slightly thin Chinese face, a long beard on his chin, full of elegance, although he is in prison, he has no panic, and he looks extremely calm and calm with a scroll in his hand, which makes people respect him in his life.
Although Guo Zhiyuan had no real blood affection for Guo Zhengyu, he couldn't help but feel a little agitated when he saw this respectable elder at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "Daddy, the child has come to see you!" ……”。
When Guo Zhengyu heard Guo Zhiyuan's voice, his body trembled, and the book in his hand fell to the ground suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Yuan'er, why are you here?!" He hurriedly stood up, and was about to rush to the prison door, halfway through, he suddenly stopped, his face was solemn, and he said sharply: "You unscrupulous, what are you doing here?!" Don't be angry with me, you're not reconciled, right? ……”。
Guo Zhiyuan was trained by Guo Zhengyu for a while, it seems that Guo Zhengyu is really disappointed in his own son, and hurriedly said: "Daddy, the child knows that he is wrong, the child is no longer angry with you, the child is here to save you!" ……”。
Guo Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Guo Zhiyuan to take the initiative to admit his mistake, is this still his son? When did this gentleman become so well-behaved and sensible? Looking at his son's familiar and seemingly somewhat unfamiliar face, the anger in his heart was fully vented, and he sighed and said: "Yuan'er, it's all because Daddy is too doting on you on weekdays, and the discipline is not strict, so that you have developed this lazy character, and so far nothing has been accomplished, I didn't expect you to be named on the gold list, glorious ancestors, thinking that as long as I am here, I can still do it to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing for your life, and now Daddy has been framed by traitors, and it is difficult to protect yourself, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect you again......
Speaking of this, Guo Zhengyu suddenly aggravated his tone and said seriously: "Yuan'er, you leave quickly!" Let your uncle take you to Jiangnan to join your grandfather, if I can survive the disaster, I will go to find you, if I encounter an accident, you can burn a stick of incense on my grave every year, I will smile Jiuquan, remember not to cause trouble in the future, and do ...... nonsense."
Although Guo Zhengyu's voice was strong, the strong licking of the calf in his words made Guo Zhiyuan's eyes moisten instantly, and he said loudly and excitedly and firmly: "No! I'm not going! I'm going to clear my father's name and get you out!" ”。
"Nonsense!" Guo Zhengyu stomped his feet hatefully and reprimanded angrily: "The major affairs of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, how can you, an ignorant child, interfere!" And those who are pure are self-purifying, I can sit upright, and why am I afraid of being framed by traitors! The emperor will be aware of everything, and he will not let me be wronged! You really want to be angry with your daddy! ”。
Guo Zhiyuan sighed secretly, his cheap father is good at everything, but he is too pedantic, no wonder he will be made so miserable, and he was about to continue to persuade, when suddenly a rush of footsteps came from behind him, and a middle-aged man with a gloomy face wearing a black gauze hat, a cyan official uniform, and a badger pattern patch on his chest walked over quickly with a few brocade guards, and the cell head followed him with a frightened face!
"Hmph, it's really a father-son relationship! It's a pity that if Guo Shilang doesn't know the current affairs anymore, I'm afraid that father and son will be separated forever! As soon as the middle-aged official saw Guo Zhengyu and Guo Zhiyuan, he sneered suspiciously.
As soon as Guo Zhengyu saw this middle-aged official, a fire immediately appeared in his eyes, this person was Qian Menggao in the matter! In the Ming Dynasty, he was the official position in charge of supervising the six departments, similar to the discipline inspection team leader assigned by the modern supervision department to each unit. Everyone knows that this discipline inspection cadre has always been a senior official, don't look at the fact that the grade in the matter is not high, but the power is very great, and whoever you want to impeach will be impeached!
This Qian Menggao has always been insidious and treacherous, and he closely follows Shoufu Shen consistently, and belongs to a different camp from Guo Zhengyu, and Guo Zhengyu's imprisonment this time is precisely because of Qian Menggao's impeachment. At this time, when the enemy met, he was extremely red-eyed, and snorted coldly: "It turned out to be Lord Qian, I have already said that the "Demon Book Case" has nothing to do with me!" I, Guo Zhengyu, have always had nothing to say to others, how could I do such a trivial thing! But Lord Qian, you made something out of nothing and framed me, aren't you afraid of retribution?! ”。
Qian Menggao was so sarcastic that Guo Zhengyu's old face turned red, and he said angrily: "Okay, you Guo Zhengyu, you are causing trouble to the clan, and you are bewitching the people, and you should be punished for your crimes!" I see that you don't see the coffin and don't cry, do you think that if you don't confess your sin, I won't be able to cure you? Behind me is a torture master selected from the Jinyi Guard, even if it is a dead man's mouth, he can pry it open! ……”。
Guo Zhengyu glanced at the fierce Jinyi guards with disdain, and said awe-inspiringly: "I, Guo Zhengyu, sit upright, be loyal, and my husband is mighty and unyielding, if Lord Qian wants to bend into a move, then I advise you to break this thought!" Even if I die in this prison today, I won't let you succeed! ……”。
Qian Menggao chuckled in his heart, Guo Zhengyu has a strong personality, and he will really commit suicide by hitting the wall to prove his innocence, and Guo Zhengyu is really going to be forced to death by himself like this, Emperor Wanli is only afraid that he will be angry with himself, and he will not be able to get better. At this time, the afterglow from the corner of his eyes happened to fall on Guo Zhiyuan on the side, his eyes rolled, and he immediately thought about it, and said with a sneer: "Guo Shilang is really tough, this is Ling Lang, they all say that the tiger father has no dog, I wonder if Ling Lang is as hard as Guo Shilang?" ……”。
As he spoke, his face changed, and he pointed at Guo Zhiyuan and shouted to the brocade guards behind him: "Someone! This man trespassed on the prison and should be punished severely! Don't take him down yet! ......", those brocade guards immediately rushed towards Guo Zhiyuan with murderous anger!
"You! Shameless! Guo Zhengyu was so angry that he grabbed the cell door and shook it vigorously, but now he couldn't protect himself, so he could only watch Guo Zhiyuan being caught by those brocade guards like an eagle catching a chicken.
Guo Zhiyuan also wailed in his heart at this time, this Qian Menggao is too insidious, he can't deal with Guo Zhengyu, so he will take the knife and fall into the hands of this guy, he is afraid that he will shed his skin if he doesn't die, now it's okay, Guo Zhengyu didn't save it, but folded himself in!
Seeing Guo Zhengyu's eyes cracking, Qian Menggao twisted a strand of beard on his chin with his thin fingers, squinted his eyes and smirked: "Guo Shilang, this is the only son of three generations of your family, you can't bear to watch him suffer from torture?" As long as you confess and give me a satisfactory answer, I can not only release Guo Gongzi, but also keep you safe, you don't want to toast and eat and drink! ”。
"You're ......!" Guo Zhengyu's eyes seemed to be about to erupt with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Qian Menggao, the disaster will not affect the family, Yuan'er is still a child who does not understand the world, and it has nothing to do with the struggle between you and me, are you not afraid of thunder and thunder in the sky?" ”。
Qian Menggao laughed and said: "Just because he is ignorant of the world, there is no other use value except for blackmailing you, if you let your son identify you as making a 'demon book', it should be very convincing!" Ha ha! ”。
Guo Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, yes! Value! If you want to get out of the crisis, you have to find a way to make up huge political value for yourself! In this way, the historical knowledge of his past life can come in handy!
Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan suddenly made a move that surprised everyone, allowing those brocade guards to twist their arms and not struggle, but laughing.
This is Guo Zhiyuan's trick to watch "The Legend of Deer and Ding" and Wei Xiaobao, when encountering a crisis situation, no matter how many laughs a few times first, because if you laugh, the opponent will not be able to figure out your details, and he will naturally have scruples in his actions.
Sure enough, his smile made Qian Menggao laugh confused, waved his hand to let the brocade guards slow down, frowned and said, "You kid can't be crazy, why are you laughing for no reason?" ……”。
