Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "Wang Shizhong, please respect yourself." We are all high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and you are the Zaifu of the Tang Dynasty, what do you look like like this? You let go of your hand, and I'll go with you. ”

Wang Gui said: "Li Shilang, what do you say? ”

"I'll go with you, too."

Only then did Wang Gui let go and said, "Two of you, please!" ”

"Slow!" Guo Ye said: "Don't worry, Wang Shizhong, Guo still has a few words to say." ”

"You speak!"

Guo Ye sighed and said, "If I just leave with you, I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything good on Your Majesty's side." At the very least, Chang'anling's functions cannot be kept, and whether other functions can be kept depends on His Majesty's mood. If I don't get it right, I will have to be like Zhang Liang, the Duke of Xunguo, to receive a salary, and go home to retire at a young age. Do you say? ”

"Humph! It's not something you brought on yourself. Want to beg for mercy now? It's late! ”

"Wang Shizhong, you misunderstood, Guo didn't want to beg you for mercy."

"And what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that I want to lose my mind."

"Convincing?"

"To be precise, I just want to search the Dade Temple again to see if there are any omissions in these officials. If he still can't find anything, Guo will completely admit it and be willing to admit the guilt! ”

"Search again?"

Guo Ye bowed to the end and said: "This reluctant request, I hope that the king must agree!" ”

Wang Gui twisted his silver hair in his hand and said, "Okay, the old man will let you lose your heart today." Do you search again...... But we have to talk about the ugly things ahead, and we can't repeat and repeat and repeat. If you can't find it again this time, you will have to fight this royal lawsuit with the old man. ”

"As you wish."

"A gentleman's word!"

"Whip the horse!"

Guo Ye also let go, gathered all the officials again, and said: "Everyone, if you can't find evidence that the monks are traitors today, Guo Someone's Chang'an Order will definitely come to an end." But I'm not happy, and you don't want to be happy! Before Guo took off his black gauze hat, he must have picked off your clothes. In the future, I will be unofficial and light, and you will all become ordinary people. On the contrary, if anyone finds the evidence and does not say it, the official will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with money...... Wanguan! ”

Under the heavy rewards and severe punishments, the officials really sold their strength. The second search was extremely meticulous, and it was almost three feet into the ground.

An hour passed before the second search was over. But the end result is that the nephew hits the lantern - as usual!

"Qin Guogong, no!"

"Qin Guogong, I'm sorry, we did our best!"

"Qin Guogong, is your information accurate!"

"It's not that we are incompetent, it's really difficult for a good woman to cook without rice! It is estimated that the monks of Dade Temple are all good monks......"

……

Things have developed so far, Guo Ye's heart is also a little muttered. He thought to himself, could I really have guessed wrong? The monks of Dade Temple really didn't commit adultery? The so-called miracle of sending the son to the Buddha is true, and the disappearance of the scholar's wife is also purely a coincidence?

If that's the case, I, Guo Ye, can be regarded as a big heel!

Wang Gui said with a smile: "Qin Guogong, what else do you have to say now?" ”

"This ...... I ......"

Li Xinglian was full of apologies and said, "Brother, it's all the foolish brother who hurt you!" Don't worry, in front of Your Majesty, Brother Yu will try his best to carry this matter down! It's just that my shoulders are too small, I'm afraid you will still be punished...... I'm sorry! ”

Li Zhong's face turned pale and said, "Li Zhong, Li Zhong, you are guilty of a great sin, you should have died a long time ago!" Why do you add mistakes to mistakes and implicate so many innocent people? Uncle Guo, your great kindness, I, Li Zhong, have no chance to repay it in this life, let's meet again in the next life! ”

When he had finished speaking, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he pulled out the saber he was carrying and raised it to his neck, which was about to kill himself!

Guo Ye hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Li Zhong, don't be impulsive!" ”

"Don't stop me! Even if I don't die now, I won't live for a few days......"

"No, things haven't come to that point yet, there must be a turnaround, you let me think about it, let me think about it......"

Guo Ye paced back and forth, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. Wang Gui was not in a hurry now, and said in a good time: "Qin Guogong, think about it, think slowly, think carefully...... The old man is very curious, what can you come up with to solve today's difficulties! ”

After a quarter of an hour or so, Guo Ye still didn't come up with any good solution. His eyes were red, and he called Cao Wenchang, who was leading the team, over and said, "Are you sure you have searched all the Dade Temple?" ”

"I've searched them all."

"Nothing missing?"

"Not a single thing was missed!"

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

"Are you sure you must and sure?"

Cao Wenchang smiled bitterly: "Qin Guogong, don't ask. How serious this matter is, the brothers know it in their hearts. I can assure you that the brothers have searched meticulously and that nothing has been missed! In addition to the side hall dedicated to the ancestors in the king's servants, in the Dade Temple, pavilions, grass and trees, we have searched all over! ”

Guo Ye's eyes lit up and said, "You say it again, why didn't you go in?" ”

"The side hall where the ancestors are enshrined in the king's servants!"

"Why don't you search?"

"You are asking us to check the evidence of the monks as traitors, the ancestors of the king's servants are enshrined here, and they have nothing to do with the monks......" There is another sentence that Cao Wenchang didn't say - everyone went in, didn't pay attention, and bumped the statue of Wang Gui's ancestors, who can afford this responsibility?

Guo Ye clenched his fists and arched his hands, his face was full of flattering smiles, and said to Wang Gui: "Among the king's servants, Guo still has an unclear ......."

"Hmph, don't tell the old man, you want to search the side hall where the old man worships his ancestors!"

"I hope that the king will be fulfilled in his servants!"

"You're daydreaming!" Lao Wang Gui pointed at Guo Ye with his hand and said, "Qin Guogong, don't say anything else, you have to talk about a big person, let's make it clear just now." After searching this time, you can't search again! These words are still in your ears, why did you regret it? ”

"Uh...... Didn't you search your side hall just now? ”

"That's not going to happen! It's your business that you didn't search, and it has nothing to do with the old man. All in all, the old man has asked you to search twice, and he is righteous. I want to search for the third time, no way! Besides, what you want to check is the evidence of the monks' adulterous crimes, why do you want to search the side hall where the old man enshrines the ancestors' tablets? Are you a monk, or an old man? ”

Guo Ye sighed and said, "Wang Shizhong, did the two of us have a grudge before?" ”

"Not really."

"Then do you think I, Guo Ye, am a crazy person?"

"Joke, if the Tang Dynasty Qin Guogong is a crazy person, how many normal people can there be in this world?"

"It's still true, I have no grudge with you for a long time, and there is no enmity for a long time, and your status as an old man is far above me. I, Guo Ye, am not crazy or stupid, why can't I think about it so much, and I want to go against you? ”

"This ......" Wang Gui shook his head and said, "What do you think, how does the old man know?" Maybe you are bold and want to take advantage of the old man? Maybe you lost too badly today and deliberately messed around? ”

Lao Wang Gui's words were obviously ignored, and Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "Wang Shizhong, then what if I have to search?" ”

"The old man is holding a sword, standing in front of the temple gate, I see who dares to break through!"

The seventy-year-old man is a hooligan, and Guo Ye can't resist it! However, the more Lao Wang Gui did not allow Guo Ye to search the side hall, the more suspicious Guo Ye became about the side hall.

Guo Ye thought for a moment and said, "Wang Shizhong, if you agree to Guo someone entering the palace to search. And I searched the side hall and couldn't find anything, so I am willing to resign from all official positions and make amends to you. The boy Guo Ye is also the general of the Wei Mansion led by the head of the Tang Dynasty and the Qin State Minister, the commander of the Ministry of Rites, and the commander of the bad people, if he offends you, he will lose all these four official positions! Isn't it enough for you to be angry that the kid ended up like this? ”

"Hmph, how can the official position of the court be granted to each other privately? What should you do if you want to resign and your majesty does not allow it? You can be robbed of love by Your Majesty, what is the point of making this bet with the old man? ”

"Uh...... Listen to what you mean, this matter is not discussed? ”

"Of course not...... No, there is a consultation! Negotiable! Wang Gui's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "The old man has been honest all his life, and when he is old, he has left nothing for future generations." If you search the side hall where the old man worships the tablet of the ancestors, but you find nothing, the old man doesn't want you to take the initiative to resign. How about you give the old man a share of Changle Fang's big money bank? ”
