"The county lieutenant is also picking on the door, our soap class brothers have worked all night to arrest the father and son of the Liu family, and they have only been rewarded with twenty taels of silver, isn't this to send a meal?"

This rough voice is none other than Cheng Erniu.

"No, those bastards in the fishing class picked up the leftovers of our soap class, but they were rewarded with three hundred taels of silver by the county lieutenant, it's really fucking frustrating."

It was the voice of a soap officer.

"Too much deception!"

The sentence was short and his voice was dry, undoubtedly the voice of Gan Zhushou, a hanged ghost who rarely spoke

As soon as Guo Yeren arrived at the gate of the soap room, he heard the resentment inside.

It seems that the brothers in the soap class are very dissatisfied with the reward given by the county governor, but if the reward of twenty taels of silver is really stingy, it is not to blame the brothers for complaining.

Just about to go in, suddenly an unfamiliar voice sounded: "What's the noise?" This is the county lieutenant's compassion for your soap class, what else do you want? A group of soaps who don't know what to do. ”

Rub, Guo Ye felt cold and sore for a while, this voice was like a eunuch in a TV series, scathing and mean.

Could it be that this person came to give a reward to the soap class on behalf of the county governor?

Just as Guo Ye was guessing, the snarky voice sounded again: "Who is Guo Ye?" Is Guo Ye from Dongliu Township here? ”

As soon as he heard that he was named, Guo Ye couldn't help but feel relieved, and stepped over the threshold and entered the big room.

Then he glanced at the people in the big room roughly, and said loudly: "Come, come, Guo Ye from Dongliu Township is here!"

As soon as I saw the room, Pang Feihu, Cheng Erniu, Gan Zhushou, and a cadre of officials were all there, and a short man in his forties was surrounded by the stars.

At this time, in the big house, plus Ruan Laosan, and himself, all the brothers in the soap class have arrived.

No, Guo Ye suddenly found that Zhang Xiaoqi didn't seem to come.

Just when Guo Ye was puzzled why Zhang Xiaoqi didn't come, Pang Feihu stepped forward and pulled Guo Ye into the crowd, and said to the forty-year-old short man: "Lord Changsui, this little brother is Guo Ye from Dongliu Township, this time my soap class was able to catch the father and son of the Liu family who stole tax grain, and it really depends on his careful layout!" ”

Pang Feihu is a good boss, he doesn't take credit or invite favors, and directly introduces Guo Ye to the long-term entourage of the county lieutenant in front of him.

Then he introduced Guo Ye: "Guo Ye, this is the long-term entourage of the county lieutenant, who is rich and expensive, who specializes in taking care of secular affairs for the county lieutenant, as well as drafting and issuing official documents for the county lieutenant. It's the red man in front of the county lieutenant! ”

Guo Ye knew that Pang Feihu specially introduced himself in this way, in addition to wanting to introduce himself solemnly, he also intended to remind himself that Qian Gui was deeply trusted by the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao and could not be offended.

What is a long follow? Guo Ye has not been in Datang for a day or two, and he has been mixed with the yamen for so long, of course he knows what Changsui is doing.

The so-called long retinue is a private secretary hired by court officials for money, a bit similar to a county order or a county guard's assassin history, etc.? The masters around Shi and the others can only be served by confidants.

According to Pang Feihu's introduction, Guo Ye will obviously understand that this money is the life secretary and work secretary of Gu Dezhao, the first brother of the public procuratorate and law in Longxi County.

Although there is no imperial court establishment like the master's staff, they are all close to the chief official, and a casual sentence can top you to spend one hundred and eighty taels of silver to set up with the county lieutenant.

Often this kind of person is some depressed people, Guo Ye really dare not offend.

Then he hugged his fist at Qian Gui and said: "It turned out to be the celebrity Qian Changsui next to the county lieutenant, Guo Ye is polite." ”

Then he hugged his fists and saluted Qian Gui very dutifully, and he didn't feel that his bones were a few taels lighter.

Qian Gui was originally an old boy, and he didn't succeed in the examination for more than ten years, and then as he got older and older, he no longer hoped for the imperial examination, so he took the path of the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao and did some calligraphy and writing work by his side.

served by Gu Dezhao's side for nearly five years, and Gu Dezhao was quite satisfied with his work, and over time, he was gradually attracted by Gu Dezhao as a confidant.

Guo Ye's analysis in his heart is right, this Qian Gui belongs to the kind of depressed person, who always regrets that he is only eight buckets, but he is not talented, so he can't tolerate others' contempt for him.

Now that I have heard Pang Feihu and Guo Ye salute me and hold them high, can I still feel comfortable in my heart?

The expression of the nostrils facing the sky just now slowly converged, and then nodded at Guo Ye with a smile, and said in his heart: "Well, yes, at a young age, but I know some etiquette." Guo Ye, the county lieutenant specially ordered the chief to bring you a word. ”

Belch?

Guo Ye's shoulders shook coldly, and the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao deliberately asked Qian Gui to bring a message to him?

Could it be that the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao began to pay attention to himself because he wanted to bring down Qin Wei because he had run the Liu family's father and son?

Although Guo Ye had a sincere and frightened look on his face, he couldn't help but secretly worry in his heart, if the county lieutenant and Qin Wei were not as simple as they seemed, then he had obviously inadvertently offended him.

Looking at Guo Ye's panicked expression, Qian Gui's heart was indescribably happy, and his opinion of Guo Ye had also changed a lot, yes, he knew how to be polite and measured, and he was a little different from those stinky officials, so he turned around and talked to the county lieutenant.

Then he chuckled at Guo Ye and said: "Don't worry about Guo Ya, the county lieutenant is not trying to scold you, on the contrary, the county lieutenant is very satisfied and happy after hearing the story of your plan to arrest the Liu family's father and son this time." In front of Ben Changsui, he praised Guo Ye of Dongliu Township for his young age, brave and strategic, and a talent. ”？

Guo Ye was confused by Qian Gui's words, Gu Dezhao would praise him?

Didn't he find a place for Qin Wei and punish himself severely, could it be that all his previous assumptions were wrong?

Guo Ye's heart became more and more unclear, and he said respectfully to Qian Gui: "Qian Changsui follows the county lieutenant all day long, and I hope that your old man will make it clear." ”

Satisfied, very satisfied, Qian Gui is very satisfied, what a respectful young man, more than a hundred times stronger than Qin Wei's dog-fighting thing.

So he smiled in a good mood and said: "The county lieutenant sent a message, Guo Ye, you came to the yamen to be introduced by the county lieutenant, although you have not been in the yamen for a long time, but you have a very good reputation, especially the case of the Liu family's father and son, which was handled neatly and neatly, the county lieutenant is very satisfied, work hard, and the county lieutenant will definitely not treat capable people badly." As for the position of Li Zheng in Dongliu Township, if you go back to the county lieutenant and report to the county commander, your father-in-law Wu Maocai will take over. ”

No way!

What kind of trouble is this Gu Dezhao going to make?

I actually value my little brother so much, and even fulfilled the promise I made to my father-in-law before, I don't understand, I really don't understand.

Hearing that the county lieutenant praised Brother Guo so much, the brothers in the entire soap class were happy for him, and now they and Guo Ye are grasshoppers on the same rope, and watermelons are inseparable from the gourd.

Brother Guo is valued by the county lieutenant, and they are honored.

Only Pang Feihu was not so optimistic in his heart, because he knew that Gu Dezhao was by no means as simple as he imagined.

Guo Ye and Pang Feihu were in the same mind, but they still did not hesitate to thank Qian Gui in their mouths, and let him pass on the county lieutenant on his behalf, he Guo Ye will definitely do a good job and will never fall into the reputation of the county lieutenant.

It's a pity that when everyone was still immersed in the atmosphere of being happy for Brother Guo, Qian Gui said another soothing sentence: "The county lieutenant has decided, Zhang Xiaoqi, the official of the soap class, neglected his duties and lost the tax grain, although he later found it." But capital sins can be forgiven, but living sins are unforgivable. From now on, Zhang Xiaoqi will be dismissed from public office and get out of the county office. It is hereby dealt with as an example, and I hope that all the officials will be able to fulfill their duties faithfully, and do not make this mistake again. ”

What the?

Dismissal of Zhang Xiaoqi from public office?

These words were as sharp as a thunderbolt in the sky, and the thunder made everyone faint.

Especially Pang Feihu, his face was even bluer, and the county lieutenant didn't even ask, so he fired his brothers, isn't this an example of killing chickens and monkeys?

Ruan Laosan, Cheng Erniu, Gan Zhushou, Zhu Pengchun and a group of officials were all indignant and upset.

And the whining became more and more, and the voice became louder and louder, and gradually, the unpleasant words were spoken.

"What? Is this going to kill us? ”

"The county lieutenant is so unfair."

"We are not convinced, we must avenge Xiao Qi."

"That's it, that's it, let's go to the county lieutenant."

Guo Ye was afraid of Qian Gui in front of him, and did not scold Gu Dezhao's eight-generation ancestors, and he couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart, thinking that the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao was a good official who knew right from wrong, and those praises before daring to love were all paving the way for the current dismissal of Zhang Xiaoqi.

Typically, you will be given a sweet date first, and then you will be beaten with a stick.

The dismissal of Zhang Xiaoqi is false, and the warning of the brothers in the soap class is true to act without authorization this time.

Gu Dezhao just wants them to understand that he Gu is the real first brother of the public procuratorate and law in Longxi County, and he can let them get out at any time.

Listening to the indignation of the soap class brothers, Guo Ye was also resentful and reasonable? If the world can be reasonable, there is no difference between right and wrong, black and white.

Suddenly, he saw that Qian Gui's face was becoming more and more ugly, and he couldn't help but sink in his heart, don't let these rotten complaints of the soap class brothers spread into Gu Dezhao's ears, otherwise, if you offend the county lieutenant who controls the life and death of the officials, where is there any good fruit to eat?

Then he glanced at Pang Feihu, then gritted his teeth and took out the only five taels of silver in his sleeve, and the corner of his mouth flashed a trace of pain and secretly handed it to Qian Gui's palm, and laughed softly: "Our brothers are all rough people, and we don't speak lightly." Qian Changsui, let's talk outside, so as not to pollute your ears. These bastards. ”

As he spoke, he shoved the silver into Qian Gui's hand and pulled Qian Gui's sleeve and walked out.

At the moment when the five taels of silver touched Qian Gui's palm, Qian Gui's face instantly became complicated, and he looked at Guo Ye with some surprise, his eyes were a little complicated, it was covetous, greedy, appreciation, and agreement.

Qian Gui put his hand into a fist, and gently shook the small silver ingot in the palm of his hand.

Qian Gui admired again in his heart, what a young man who can do things, not bad, really good.
