Chapter 183: The World

The closer the truth is to everyone, the more panicked they become, which is a kind of panic of responsibility.

It seems that the rules of this world are,

The old man was in the car and held on to it. The little girl stopped crying and helped her grandfather keep an eye on the car.

The thin man pulled the handlebar with one hand and the old man's arm with the other, and shouted, "you!" "Push the old man out of the way.

At this time, Guo Xie drove over with Yun'er and his family, and when he saw this scene, he ordered his family to stop the car.

The tall and thin old man threw himself back and cried out desperately, "You beasts! If you go to jail, you go to jail! My son can't come back, and my daughter-in-law is gone, leaving me and my granddaughter alone. Today, I will take this old life and fight with you! After saying that, he pounced at once, but was blocked by the fat man.

Seeing this, the little girl aimed at the thin man's left hand holding the car and bit it hard. The thin officer and soldier screamed miserably, put the car down, and while desperately shaking his bloodied left hand, he raised the horsewhip in his right hand and hit the girl.

Suddenly, a sword reached out, and the whip broke in two.

The thin officers and soldiers were shocked when they held up their bare whips. "Huh? How did this whip fly? ”

He turned around and saw Guo Jie. "Who are you? If you are full, dare to take care of the affairs of the court? If Master Zhang knew, would you still want to die? ”

Guo Xie didn't care what he was, Master Zhang and Master Li, and reprimanded angrily: "In order to show off in front of the Huns, you are so preoccupied with the villagers of Chang'an, it is too much!" ”

The fat officer and soldier said, "Hey, hey, do you know what your last name is?" Dare to take care of Lord Zhang's business? ”

Guo Xie said angrily: "My surname is Guo, my name is Guo Jie!" I will take care of the affairs of the king of heaven and Laozi! ”

The fat officer and soldier were taken aback: "Ah! Is it Guo Daxia? He quickly knelt down and kowtowed. That's not all, and he pulled the skinny one to his knees. "The villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please spare your life!"

Guo Xie was still angry: "Hmph, say!" Who told you to do that! ”

The fat officer and soldier complained: "Hero, everyone does this. I'm considered good, I returned the money to the old man, many people didn't give a child, and the car was gone! ”

"You tell me directly, you Lord Zhang wants you to ask for a car, how much do you pay for each car?"

"Twenty strings of money per car."

"What? Twenty strings? It's not enough to buy half of the car, you still have to deduct half of it? ”

The fat officer and soldier kowtowed again: "The hero spares his life!" The villain took out all the money. ”

Guo Xie said angrily: "You can't take it out!" This old man's car is not allowed to move! Tell Zhang Tang and say that he was taken away by me Guo Jie! ”

The two officers and soldiers said in unison: "The villain obeys the order, and the villain will find a way." ”

Guo Xie insisted: "Don't think of a way, don't bully the people!" I have to say this to you, Lord Zhang! Go back now and report to Zhang Tang! ”

One thin and one fat, the two officers and soldiers hurriedly slipped away. The tall and thin old man climbed down from the ground, pulled his little granddaughter, and thanked him while making a gesture: "Guo Daxia, Xiaomin thank you for your great kindness." ”

Guo Xie hurriedly helped him up: "Old man, please get up." Did they take all the cars in this town? ”

"Yes, hero, let the officers and soldiers go, the little old man hid the car yesterday, and today he thought that the officers and soldiers were gone, and they were going to pull firewood and grass. Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I was stopped by them. ”

Guo Xie threw down a few strings of money to him and persuaded: "Old man, this money can be regarded as my filial piety for your son, and I will also raise this child." Don't go out these days, wait until the eighth day of the new year, and then talk about it. ”

The tall and thin old man said repeatedly: "Thank you, hero, benefactor!" He pulled his little granddaughter again: "Xian'er, kowtow to your benefactor!" ”

The girl named "Xian'er" hurriedly knelt down, but she didn't kowtow, but stared at Yun'er tightly. The car was far away, and she was still staring wide-eyed.

Guo Xie whipped away and never looked back. Huo Yun'er in the car had a big belly, but her eyes were back on the child. Those big eyes, how much expectation and hope there are in them! Yun'er's eyes moistened. She said to Guo: "Husband, you saved this old man and child, but there are so many people in Chang'an, can you save them?" ”

Guo Xie nodded and said, "Yes!" A total of 10,000 vehicles will be collected. Chang'an, Chang'an, thousands of families are uneasy. There's nothing I can do, ma'am. ”

Huo Yun'er asked suspiciously, "Why would the emperor let you do this?" This is a harmful move to the people, why didn't Lord Dongfang stop it? ”

Guo Xie explained: "Madame doesn't know, Lord Dongfang is also powerless!" Today's emperor, so happy. As long as it can satisfy his personal wishes, he can do anything; What's more, there are a bunch of villains around him. ”

Huo Yun'er said worriedly: "If that's the case, husband, how can you bear your temper when you arrive in Chang'an?" ”

Guo Xie thought to himself, my wife still understands me. "Yes! Madam, Guo Xie doesn't want this official, and he doesn't want to be in the company of those villains in Chang'an. However, if you don't obey, you will disobey the king's order and be beheaded! ”

"Husband, your way of doing things, when you go to Chang'an, you still can't be tolerated!" Huo Yun'er reminded Guo Jie.

Guo Xie pondered for a moment and replied: "Yes, madam, when we go to Chang'an, we will return the gold seal sealed by the emperor and the silver money rewarded to him, and then we will take Huo Guang and go home to live our own lives!" ”

Huo Yun'er nodded, she thought that this might be better.

There was smoke and dust in the distance, and it turned out to be another town, where many officers and soldiers were fighting for the cars of ordinary people, and the elderly, women, and children were crying non-stop. Guo Xie saw it in his eyes and was furious; With his hand on his sword, he wanted to pull it out. Huo Yun'er held his hand and looked at him pleadingly, tears streaming from her eyes.

Guo Xie patted the wheel and sighed: "Hey! "Shake your head and leave.

After lunch, Li Shimin was in Jianzhang Palace, admiring the floats sent by Zhang Tang. The cars, large and small, were colourful with all kinds of paper and silk cloth, and were very beautiful. Li Shimin browsed and was very happy.

"Zhang Aiqing, I didn't expect that Chang'an citizens have so many floats at home?"

Zhang Tang said: "Your Majesty, the people of Chang'an are all thanks to you, thank you Dade!" As soon as I heard that the emperor was going to use a car to parade and load the Xiongnu troops. They have dedicated their cars! ”

Li Shimin was a little excited: "It is my blessing to have such good people." Zhang Aiqing, you can't use the people's car in vain. ”

"The emperor can rest assured, the ministers will reward each family with twenty strings of money for donating a car, and the people are grateful!"

"That's good! All right! Aiqing, I heard from the Treasury that the money and grain accumulated by the first emperor have been almost used? ”

"Your Majesty, in the world of Wenjing, there is a lot of money and grain that has been accumulated, but it can be put in the treasury and not used, the money strings are rotten, and the grain is moldy. If you don't use it, it's a waste. Wouldn't it be better to use them up and put new ones in storage? ”

Li Shimin thought about it and felt that what Zhang Tang said was right. "Aiqing, this money and food, like the official I rewarded, must be constantly replaced."

Zhang Tang hurriedly said: "The emperor is sage! However, the emperor and his ministers issued an edict to levy cars, but some people dared to intercept them, and they also beat up the officers and soldiers who levy cars. ”

Li Shimin didn't believe it: "Huh? Is there such a daring person? Did you arrest him? ”

Zhang Tang said aggrievedly: "Weichen doesn't dare. He is a very famous knight, Chang'an Xiaomin, respecting him is almost the same as respecting the emperor. ”

Li Shimin was taken aback, and he understood a little in his heart, but he still held back his anger and asked, "Are you talking about Guo Jie?" How dare he disobey the edict? ”

Zhang Tang added fuel and vinegar and said, "Not really." Your Majesty, Guo Xie has always acted according to his own ideas, but he didn't take the emperor's edict seriously. ”
