Chapter 235: The Same Thing
Du Jiabin was ashamed and convinced: "Shopkeeper Dong, I lost, I am not worthy of being a businessman." At the ferry, if it were me, I would never give my companion a ride, but you would rather risk my business and let me get on board. In the middle of the night, I privately looked for a small way to grab business, and I lost my burden by mistake, and the shopkeeper Dong did not hesitate to send it to me at night, which I am even worse than you. When I was trapped in a tree by a wolf, the shopkeeper Dong led the wolf away to save me, but I used poisonous wine to harm you, and afterwards you pleaded for me. Based on these three points, I know that you are a real businessman, and you must learn to be a person before doing business, and I really can't compare to you. ”
……
Li Tao couldn't help but nod and said, "Where is this now?" ”
Zhao Feng said: "Dong Shaoqing later sold all his family property in order to save a friend, and came to the capital alone after going bankrupt!" Before leaving, Du Jiabin also invited Dong Shaoqing to have a meal in Yonghe Building, and it is said that he lived in Tianci Temple. ”
"Let's go, let's go to Tianci Temple now!"
……
When Li Tao and the others were about to arrive at Tianci Temple, a young monk was also walking towards the temple, so he stepped forward to greet him: "This master, what do you call it, but you are a senior monk of Tianci Temple?" ”
The monk was stunned and said: "Donor, the poor monk Purun, is indeed from Tianci Temple, but he is not a high monk, just a miscellaneous novice." ”
"I want to inquire, Dong Shaoqing lives in your temple?"
Pu Run laughed when he heard it: "The donor is talking about Dong Caishen?" That's right, I did live in Tianci Temple. I don't know ...... donor."
"Oh, I'm Dong Shaoqing's friend, and I'm here to visit him today!"
Purun said: "This Dong God of Wealth." I have rarely come back recently, and I don't know if I am not in the temple at this time, donor. The little monk will take you to see it! ”
After saying that, Purun said to a few people behind him: "You guys keep up!" ”
Li Tao glanced at the people and asked, "Who are they?" ”
Purun said: "A few days ago, there was a strong wind, and several temple eaves in the temple were damaged, and the abbot of Hongzhi instructed the little monk to invite a few masons to repair it. Unexpectedly, I ran into a few of them on the way, and they were dressed up in outfits, and their bags were full of clay tools. When I asked, they happened to be masons. I negotiated with them and negotiated the price, and went back to the temple together. ”
Li Tao smiled: "What a coincidence! ”
Purun said: "It seems that the Buddha blessed me!" ”
Several people entered the temple, and when they asked, they learned that Dong Shaoqing was not in the temple, and Li Tao and Purun agreed to come back tomorrow. He left Tianci Temple.
……
Li Tao, Pei Yue, and Li Bai were about to return home, but they saw a person suddenly come out of the oblique thorn, and the long sword on Pei Yue's waist suddenly came out of its sheath, pointing at the person's throat.
Li Tao felt that the man was familiar. I thought about it suddenly. smiled: "Zhang Shun, is it you?" ”
This person is the thief Zhang Shun that Li Tao saw in prison that day, if it weren't for his active cooperation, this thief in Chang'an City may not be easy to get rid of.
Li Tao saw that he was wearing the costume of a servant, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Zhang Shun, when did you become an errand officer?" ”
Zhang Shun glanced at Pei Yue, who withdrew the sword from his throat.
Zhang Shun bowed and said, "A few days ago, Zhang Fuyin had already recorded the villain as a thief, and he was specifically responsible for arresting thieves. ”
Li Tao said with a smile: "Zhang Wei, this is a good use of people!" ”
Zhang Shun took out something from his arms: "This is a gift from my aunt." She said that you are a good person, not only to repay the people. And let the little ones know that you are the great benefactor of our family! ”
Li Tao took the burden and opened it to see that it was several hands of embroidered insoles.
Zhang Shun said a little shyly: "My aunt is afraid that you won't like it, but this is her intention, please accept it!" ”
Looking at the thin stitches, Li Tao was moved for no reason: "I accepted it, thank you for me!" ”
"Alas!" Zhang Shun promised: "Then I'll go back to the mansion first!" ”
Li Tao asked casually: "Are there still thieves in Chang'an City?" ”
"It's basically extinct, thieves are so pointed, as long as there are people who know how to do it, they will have no chance to take advantage of it!"
Li Tao flashed his light, as if he remembered something, he pulled Zhang Shun: "It just so happens that I have a little matter, let's go to the government together!" ”
Watching Li Tao and Zhang Shun walk forward, Li Bai said to himself: "It seems that this Zhang Shun is really a competent thief!" ”
"It's a pity that you're not a competent guard, everyone is approaching, but you don't even react at all!" Pei Yue threw down a sentence and hurriedly chased after him.
Li Bai knew what Pei Yue meant, his face turned red, and he also followed.
……
"Lantian King, have you thought of a way?" Zhang Wei saw Li Tao coming in a hurry and asked anxiously.
Li Tao nodded and said, "Is there a lawyer in Chang'an City who is familiar with the law and is quite upright?" Remember to be a lawyer, not a lawyer! ”
Zhang Wei was puzzled: "King Lantian, what does this mean?" ”
"Have you seen how we eliminated the thieves in Chang'an?"
Zhang Wei's eyes lit up: "Lantian King, what do you mean ......?"
"Don't you think these two things are the same?"
……
"King Lantian, this is Guo Sizong's home!" Zhang Wei pointed to a house in Yining Fang.
Guo Sizong, whom Zhang Wei mentioned, is a famous lawyer in Chang'an. Guo Sizong's father trained their brothers to study law since they were young, and also conceived a case in which the two brothers would write a complaint or defense for the original defendant, and the father would judge it. Guo Sizong later won the reputation of Xiucai, as soon as his father died, his brother fought a lawsuit, saying that his younger brother was molesting his sister-in-law, but in fact, his brother was trying to monopolize the family property. As a result, Guo Sizong was convicted of the crime, and Guo Sizong's title of Xiucai was revoked and sentenced to imprisonment. After completing his sentence, he completely relied on fighting lawsuits for others to make a living, and became a "full-time" lawyer. After all, Guo Sizong is talented, and the laws and precedents are well established, which makes many officials in Chang'an afraid of him, and his fame is getting louder and louder.
Guo Sizong has a daughter who is married to a family of scholars in Chang'an City, and his son is four years old.
One day, her son was noisy, and her mother-in-law was noisy, so she blamed her daughter-in-law for not taking good care of the child, and the daughter-in-law ridiculed each other, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreled. Her husband happened to be home and when he heard her insulting words, he punched her twice. Guo Sizong's daughter took a razor and slashed it on her neck to threaten suicide, but she didn't expect the razor to be sharp, it really cut her neck, and the blood flowed profusely.
The husband and mother-in-law panicked, helped her to the kang, and tried to mend the wound with chicken skin, but because of the serious injury, Guo Sizong's daughter quickly swallowed her breath.
The husband knew that Guo Sizong was powerful, so he entrusted Guo Sizong's neighbor Wang Juren to tell him, saying that his daughter was seriously ill, and he thought it was a plan to delay the army, so he first went to Jingzhao Yin's mansion to ask for an autopsy.
At the inspection site, Guo Sizong saw that his daughter was dead and did not say a word. (To be continued......)
