Chapter Twenty-Six: Forced Marriage Dignitaries
"Meng Yan, your Uncle Guo doesn't force you, think about it, today you hugged Yue'er on the street, what do you think in your heart, and what will those who see it think?" Guo Nu knew very well the truth that things must be opposed, and forced Meng Yan to be anxious, but things were not easy to do.
If the talk really collapses, it will not benefit anyone.
If it was because of some need, or other reasons, he chose to give Meng Yan a chance, and now he really appreciates this young man.
Of course, there is still a little bit of old people's affection in this, under normal circumstances, people die and tea is cold, and in the officialdom, Guo Nu also has his own helplessness.
"This ......" Meng Yan had hot air on his forehead.
"Uncle Guo, Guo Yue and I are still young, is this talk about marriage a two-year delay?" Meng Yan had no other way but to use the strategy of delaying the army.
"You can afford to wait, Yue'er can't afford to wait, she is almost eighteen years old, just three months younger than you!"
Sweat!
Sixteen years old in the Ming Dynasty has reached the legal age of marriage, the ancient life expectancy was short, girls were precocious, thirteen or fourteen years old marriage and childbirth, that is a common thing
If you are not married at the age of eighteen and have no in-laws, they all belong to older leftover girls.
Indeed, Guo Nu should also be in a hurry, his daughter can't get married, this is open, secret, I don't know how many people laugh at him.
Not to mention that a member of the three grades is a common man, and he is also panicked when he encounters this.
"Uncle Guo, I still don't have a fixed place to live, is it too early to say this?"
Guo Nu was speechless all of a sudden, Meng Yan beat a brocade guard hundred, and also robbed the official robe and waist card, this crime is not small, if you don't get it right, you will be imprisoned and reinforced.
Of course, with his help, the army can be spared, and imprisonment can also be atonement for merit, but it is difficult to enter Jinyiwei!
The key is to keep Meng Yan Jinyiwei's identity, as long as this identity is there, even if it starts from the lowest wrestler, with his support, there is no problem in achieving thousands of households before the age of thirty.
"Meng Yan, as long as Uncle Guo says a word from you, as long as you agree to marry the moon girl, Uncle Guo will save you even if he fights for this life!" Guo said angrily.
"Uncle Guo......" Meng Yan suddenly felt that his eyes were moist, he felt that Guo Nu was not joking, he was serious.
A father, who does this for the happiness of his daughter, is the best father in the world, even if he is not a good person.
Just outside the house, under the window, Guo Yue's eyes were red and swollen when she squatted on the ground crying, she wouldn't have thought that her father really loved her to the extreme.
"Uncle Guo, seriously, I really want to promise you, but I can't!" Meng Yan took a deep breath, he could compromise and trade anything, but his feelings and conscience couldn't.
This thing that goes against feelings, if you do it, you will not be happy for the rest of your life, and if you are not happy, what is the point of living in the world?
Conscience is an attitude, a persistence, and a value, and if people have no conscience, they will lose the most basic value of being a human being.
These two things, his protection, once he loses or compromises at will, he is not Meng Yan.
It's not the man who stands up to the sky and moves forward bravely!
"Why?"
"I can't go against my conscience!" Meng Yan Road.
"Conscience, do you think marrying my daughter is against your conscience?" Guo Nu was furious, he thought that Meng Yan would shirk the birthmark on his daughter's face, but he didn't expect him to say such a thing.
"Uncle Guo, listen to me." Meng Yan hurriedly said, "I can promise you now, no one can say what will happen in the future, maybe one day, when you leave, I will not recognize this family business in a blink of an eye, or divorce your daughter, is it possible?" ”
Guo Nu also calmed down, his words sounded a little cruel, but Meng Yan was right, he would have a hundred years one day, and when the time came, once Meng Yan became the climate, his daughter might be entrusted with someone for the rest of her life.
"You don't want to be a non-human, do you?"
"Then what do you say, what do you tell me to do?" Guo asked rhetorically.
"Let's get along with ourselves for a while, if Guo Yue and I are really fated, I don't need Uncle Guo to force me, I will also ask you for a kiss." Meng Yan said, "But if I don't have this fate with Guo Yue, then, then ......"
"Then what, do you think the same as outsiders, thinking that my daughter is born with a life and will never be able to get married, so she can only go to the nunnery to be a nun?"
"Uncle Guo, what are you talking about, what kind of life?"
"Haven't you heard that?" Guo Nu was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood, if Meng Yan heard this, how could Guo Yue make such jokes, say those words, and even carry her into the carriage?
"What?" Meng Yan asked with some confusion.
"If you don't know, forget it, you'll know later." Guo Nu raised his hand and said, "Anyway, Yue'er, I left it to you, this matter is not negotiable!" ”
Belch!
Talking for a long time is equivalent to saying in vain, it seems that Guo Nu is determined to marry his daughter to him, and in order to achieve this goal, he has completely ignored the face of the third-grade master and is unreasonable.
At this time, a lieutenant came in.
"My lord, Lu Zhenfu sent the adult to ask......
"Why, he is so impatient to take over the case and sue Lu Zhong, saying that I have important official business to deal with, let him wait!" Guo said angrily.
"Yes, sir!" The little official nodded hurriedly, he was just a microphone, and the fight between the adults was not something they mixed up casually, if they didn't get it right, they would be beaten, how wronged would it be?
"Uncle Guo, Beizhen Fusi took over the case, he must make a fuss, we have to guard against it." Meng Yan reminded.
"Well, Menda is dead, but the pair of master and servant in the book are still alive, and these two young ladies are in prison, I'm afraid there will be extraneous trouble." Guo Nu nodded.
"Where's the man?"
"Du Zhenfu has brought it back!"
"Uncle Guo, I want to meet the hostess of this Xiaoya Library!" Meng Yan's heart suddenly moved and said.
"What do you want to see this woman for?" Guo Nu was suspicious.
"Curious!"
"A prostitute, what's so curious?" Guo Nu said unhappily, "Sue you, you are now my quasi-son-in-law, are you not allowed to mess around?" ”
"Then Uncle Guo, did you agree?"
"Let Uncle Da take you there." Guo Nu thought for a while, but nodded in agreement.
"Uncle Xie, Uncle Guo!"
What Meng Yan was curious about was that a secret prostitute who was Menda's outer room, and was secretly related to a certain senior member of the court, such a woman was definitely more than just her identity on the surface.
Meng Yan dared to meet this woman, also because he didn't meet this Qin Xiaoya last night, and this woman shouldn't recognize him.
Of course, just in case, Meng Yan still made some preparations, and then went with Uncle Da to meet Qin Xiaoya, who was temporarily detained.
Meng Yan saw Qin Xiaoya, and Guo Nu went to see Lu Zhong, the impatient envoy of Beizhen Fuzhen, who had been waiting for a long time.
"See Lord Guo!" Although he was dissatisfied with Guo Nu's deliberate delay, the rules in the officialdom still had to be observed, and when he saw Guo Nu, Lu Zhong hurriedly bent down and saluted.
"Excuse me!"
"Lord Lu, since Menda's case has been handed over to the Beizhen Fu Division, this official will not be embarrassed, but the handover of this case is not something that I can do with a word, this court has a charter, right?" Guo Nu is in the road.
"That's what Lord Guo said!" Lu Zhong agreed, but scolded his mother in his heart, it was clearly a deliberate delay, without you to speak, how dare the people below go through the handover procedures happily?
"My lord, there is no criminal in this case, but Lord Lu wants to take away the pair of masters and servants in Xiaoya Shuyu, and he thinks that this is extremely inappropriate, how can there be a precedent for putting the informant in prison, if this opening is opened, the imperial historians of the court and the central government will have to participate in our Jinyi Guard's arbitrary and arbitrary power!" Du Zhong said.
"Oh, is that so?"
"Lord Guo, Menda's deputy Qianhu died violently in Xiaoya's study, this Qin Xiaoya's master and servant are suspected of murder, as for them taking the initiative to report the case, it may be that they want to cover up and deliberately deceive us?" Lu Zhongdao.
"Lord Lu, this is all your speculation, the autopsy said that Menda died of a stroke, even if Qin Xiaoya's master and servant are responsible, but they just didn't rescue in time, why do you want to cover up the words?" Du Zhong retorted.
"Master Du, what are you and I doing, Lord Men's death, the suspicion of the master and servant is the greatest, you can't see it?"
"Lord Lu, our Nanya is going to talk about evidence in handling cases, but we can't compare with you, planting false accusations at will, and beating them into tricks, do you Beiya do less of this kind of thing?" Du Zhong smiled contemptuously and said-for-tat.
"Du Chong, you are slandering ......" Lu Zhong stood up angrily and pointed at Du Chongdao.
"Enough, is it all over?" Guo Nu patted the edge of the table, "One is the envoy of Jinyi Weibei Town, the other is the envoy of Jinyi Weinan Town, the fourth member of the imperial court, is it so noisy that you are not afraid of being laughed at?" ”
"Lord Guo, the humble post was ordered by Lord Ma to come to raise people, if this Qin Xiaoya's master and servant are innocent, our Beizhen Fusi will not wronged her." Lu Zhong said with a red face.
"People, you can take them!" Guo Nu said slowly.
"My lord......" Du Chong was anxious, this is not going to be pressed by the Beiya again, this is obviously the person of the Nanya, the case of the Nanya, not to mention, not to mention, now I have to watch the Beiya take people away, as soon as this person enters the Beiya, it will be uncontrollable, when the time comes, whether these people will use Qin Xiaoya's master and servant to frame a few people, it is difficult to say.
"However, there must be evidence to prove that this master and servant are related to Menda's death, otherwise, I, Nanya, have no right to hand people over to you!" Guo Nu's words turned sharply.
"Lord Guo, this is Lord Ma's order!"
"Is there a warrant from Ma Shun?" Guo Nu's sharp eyes swept over Lu Zhong, and he asked coldly?
"This ......"
