Chapter 1445: Twenty Thousand Years in Prison
If Chai Lingwen just said that he was going to be in trouble, Guo Ye would definitely scoff at it, this young master Chai, that is, he has a little talent in business, and when it comes to his means in officialdom, he is far worse than Guo Ye!
However, this time he was speaking for Huo Guogong Chai Shao, and Guo Ye had to pay attention to it! Guo Ye is in a high position at a young age, and he is the best choice for scheming and skill, and there is no need for Chai Shao to worry about the general situation! Now that he has sent Chai Lingwen to pass the word, it can only show that the matter is already very serious!
He asked, "Big brother, what's going on?" ”
Chai Lingwen glanced around and said, "I said brother-in-law, do you know that you have already stabbed the hornet's nest!" Now your majesty has received eight out of ten copies of the memorabilia to impeach you! ”
"Impeach me for what?"
"Say anything! Some impeach you for corruption, some impeach you for accepting bribes, some impeach you for provoking without permission, and some impeach you for not being strict with your subordinates and embezzling spoils of war! There are even people who impeach you for robbing people's daughters...... Flip through "The Law of the Tang Dynasty", and there is basically no sin that you haven't committed! ”
Guo Ye sneered: "It's all nonsense! I Guo Ye is doing right, walking well, they can say whatever they like! Your Majesty is wise and discerning, and he will definitely not let these people's tricks succeed! ”
Chai Lingwen said: "There is a way that three people become tigers, and these people chant in front of Your Majesty all day long, so you have so much confidence in Your Majesty?" ”
Guo Ye sighed and said, "Then what else can I do?" Self-justification on the excerpt? Your Majesty didn't ask me, I can't argue! What a good way to do it father-in-law! ”
Chai Er Shao said: "Our father sent me to pass you a message...... Retreat! ”
"Retreat as advance? What do you mean? ”
He ...... What does he mean by the old man......" Chai Ershao said hesitantly: "Let you take the initiative...... Resign and don't do it! After finishing speaking, Chai Ershao covered his ears and lowered his head, ready to meet Guo Ye's anger!
To his sudden surprise, Guo Ye nodded and said calmly: "It's a good way!" That's what I mean! ”
Seeing that Guo Ye was not annoyed at all, Chai Ershao couldn't figure it out, and said, "I said brother-in-law, you ...... You're not mad, are you? This is a resignation! Why aren't you angry at all? ”
Guo Yedao: "Why should I be angry? ”
"This is a resignation! You have made so many contributions to Datang over the years, isn't it just for high-ranking officials? Just because of the false words of these villains, I resigned and didn't do it, can you swallow this breath? ”
"Of course I can swallow this breath, why these people impeached me, I already knew! It's not because when I went to Goguryeo, I broke a lot of guards! These guards are all the children of my high-ranking officials in the Tang Dynasty, and their families are angry with me, so they launched the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee to impeach me! I don't blame them, if I can make them angry if Guo Ye resigns, I have no complaints! ”
Chai Lingwen said: "If it were me, I wouldn't be able to swallow this breath, obviously it's not my fault, why should I be held responsible!" ”
Guo Ye said angrily: "What can't you think of? These brothers fought for the country, and their lives were put into it! Husbands and wives can't get together, and fathers and sons can't be reunited! And I, Guo Ye, are not only alive, but also enjoy the joy of family! I have gained too much and lost too little compared to my dead brother, what is there to be dissatisfied? ”
"Brother-in-law, I used to think that you officialdom were all thick-faced and black-hearted, selfish! Listening to your words today, I'm convinced! Your mind, I Chai Lingwen is not as good! ”
Guo Ye smiled and said, "It's just a resignation, how can it be so great?" I can resign, but Your Majesty may not approve it! ”
"Ah...... Yes? ”
"My father-in-law asked you to pass on the word to advance by retreating, not taking a step back to broaden the sky! If my official is really gone, then how can I enter? These are just shows, for those high-ranking officials who have died, so that they can vent their anger! Your Majesty is a generation of Ming Jun, and he will definitely not allow it! ”
"Black! It's so dark! You officials are so black! I take back what I just said! ”
……
……
Within two days, someone sent a decree to let Guo Ye participate in the court meeting!
Guo Yesin said that, he didn't panic, and acted according to the plan! Hearing the news that Guo Ye was going to resign, His Majesty Li Er was silent! He asked: "The prince of Pingyang County is going to resign because of some gossip, what do you have to say?" ”
What he means is to wait for someone to intercede for Guo Ye, and then he will take advantage of the situation to agree! Punish Guo Ye for a few years, give everyone an explanation, and this matter will be over!
Why is the world not as it should be!
A person walked out of the ranks of civil officials, knelt on the ground, and said: "Your Majesty, if the Pingyang County Duke wants to escape punishment by resigning, I'm afraid it's too cheap for him!" ”
His Majesty Li Er frowned and said, "These impeachments are all chasing after the wind and shadows, false accusations!" Don't think I don't know what you're doing to impeach the prince of Pingyang! The prince of Pingyang County could not bear the turmoil in the imperial court, and was willing to resign and not do anything to calm the matter. It shows the high wind and bright festival! You don't want to get an inch! ”
The man said: "Your Majesty has one more thing to impeach the prince of Pingyang County, this matter is conclusive evidence, not chasing after the wind!" ”
Guo Ye looked at this person, he didn't know it! He asked, "Who are you?" ”
The man said: "I am Cui Hanjin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and I am still your subordinate!" It's just that you haven't shown up in the Ministry of Rites, and we have never seen each other! ”
As soon as he said that his surname was Cui, Guo Ye's heart moved, and he said, "Are you a member of the Boling Cui clan?" ”
"Exactly! Pingyang County Prince, in this way, you are guilty? ”
"What sin do you know? You Boling Cui clan have a grudge against me Guo Ye, and today you want to take the opportunity to falsely accuse me, but you miscalculated! Your Majesty is aware of everything, and he will not let you succeed! ”
Cui Hanjin sneered and said, "It is precisely because Your Majesty is aware of everything, Pingyang County Prince, today you are in a catastrophe!" ”
His Majesty Li Er's face sank, and he said: "Cui Shilang, there is one of my Tang laws, which is called false accusation and anti-sitting!" If you can't come up with solid evidence today, hmph, I'm going to cure you for false accusations! ”
Cui Hanjin knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the minister will never dare to frame the prince of Pingyang County, the minister has evidence!" After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of contract, held it high, and said, "Your Majesty, please take a look!" ”
"Bring it on!"
His Majesty Li Er read the contract again, was noncommittal, and said, "Show it to the county prince of Pingyang!" ”
Guo Ye took it and took a look, but it was the contract that he and Cui Xuanren had bet on 100,000 yuan, he smiled slightly, and said, "What should I be, isn't it just a contract for betting?" Fair betting, willing to gamble and lose, could it be that you Boling Cui still want to lose and deny it? ”
Cui Hanjin smiled gloomily and said, "Pingyang County Prince, can you confirm that this contract is true?" ”
"This contract is naturally true, what do I dare not admit!"
"That's good!"
After finishing speaking, Cui Hanjin said loudly to His Majesty Li Er: "Your Majesty, please treat Guo Ye for a gambling crime!" ”
"Gambling?" Guo Ye was a little dumbfounded and said, "In Datang, gambling is still a crime?" ”
"Of course! According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, anyone who participates in gambling and gets less than five horses of silk will receive 100 rods each. Whoever reaches the price of five horses of silk shall be sentenced to one year's imprisonment for theft. And so on. The total amount of stolen goods of the Pingyang County Duke is 100,000 yuan, which is about 120,000 horses when converted into silk, please Your Majesty sentence the Pingyang County Duke to 20,000 years in prison! There are still 4,000 years and a fraction, and you can give him free of the great achievements of the past in Pingyang County! ”
Guo Ye was dumbfounded and said, "Your Majesty, we still have this law in Datang?" Why don't I know? ”
His Majesty Li Er said with a tooth flower, "There is indeed one!" ”
"Then I think that Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, opened a gambling house in Chang'an City, and everyone knows it, why didn't you arrest him and punish him?"
Li Daozong laughed and said, "Pingyang County Prince, you are wrong to blame me!" I think we didn't have this decree in Datang at the beginning! Instead, the previous year began to revise the "Zhenguan Law" by His Majesty, adding a prohibition on gambling! Therefore, the gambling houses in the past were all in accordance with the law, but now gambling is against His Majesty's royal law! 20,000 years in prison, tsk, Pingyang County Prince, you can enjoy it slowly...... I'll see you someday when I'm in a good mood! ”
