0211 Stirring Stick (4th Shift)
Wen Yi came all the way to Xishu Courtyard, which was very empty and deserted. asked the guards about Guo Jiting's residence, and he walked straight over.
After all, it is a place where officials are imprisoned, and the conditions are relatively better, at least they are all single rooms.
Before I got closer, I heard someone reciting Tang Lu, and the voice was Guo Jiting.
Under normal circumstances, few people can read the Torah, and even if they read it, they will not understand it deeply.
The best time to learn the law is when you sit in the penitential chair and weep bitterly.
So there is only one book in Shuyuan, which is Tang Law.
It is estimated that Guo Jiting is bored here, so he will use this book to relieve his boredom.
But looking at how carefully he reads, it's obviously not as simple as reading casually, but really reading it.
As far as this attitude is concerned, Wen Yi is very satisfied.
No matter what kind of person he is, he must be responsible for whatever he does, and this is a basic quality.
Since you want to take refuge in the Tang Kingdom, you must take the initiative to understand the rules and adapt here. Even if there are countless good policies for enriching the country and strengthening the people, you must first understand the situation of the Tang State before you can start reform.
Shouting at what to do without asking anything is either a liar or a piece of paper.
When I walked to the door, a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old came out with a wooden basin, and there were a few old clothes in it, which seemed to be ready to be washed.
She should have known Wen Yi, so she was stunned for a moment and turned her head and ran into the house: "Guo Lang Guo Lang, the king is here." ”
Then I heard the sound of tables and chairs rattling in the room, and the cry of pain, and the voice of the girl's concern.
Wen Yi could probably guess what was going on, so he stopped and gave the other party time to clean up.
After a while, Guo Jiting limped out, with a sneer on his face: "I was so happy to hear that the king had arrived, so I lost my temper, and I hope the king will forgive me." ”
Wen Yi nodded and said, "It's me who came too abruptly." ”
Guo Jiting hurriedly said: "How dare you, it's my honor for the king to come, please inside." ”
Wen Yi said: "No need, I know the situation here better than you, just talk about it outside." ”
Speaking of this, he stared at Guo Jiting and asked, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
Guo Jiting lifted his hem and knelt on the ground and said: "It was I who didn't investigate the truth clearly, so that I wronged Mr. Zhang to manage them, and made them feel sorry for the king, so please punish the king." ”
Wen Yi kicked him in the shoulder, but he didn't stay strong this kick, and Guo Jiting was kicked and rolled on the ground twice.
But he only snorted, rolled over and continued to kneel on the ground.
"Ahh The girl exclaimed, she wanted to come out to help him but didn't dare, and tears of anxiety came out.
Wen Yi ignored the girl and said coldly: "I don't think you didn't investigate clearly, but did it on purpose." ”
Guo Jiting was shocked into a cold sweat, knowing that he must not admit it, otherwise he would definitely die: "The king is wronged." ”
"I really don't know what happened before, and Mr. Zhang didn't say anything about it, so there was such a misunderstanding."
"I admit that I have a lot of resentment against Mr. Zhang because of the arrest, but I won't frame them like this, please Wang Mingjian."
Now Wen Yi didn't believe his words at all, how could he find out about the existence of the Tang Kingdom without knowing anything, and how could he not investigate what happened before.
It's just that he doesn't admit this kind of thing and can't do it.
The main reason is that Wen Yi wants to use his talents, and he doesn't want to kill him like this.
"Do you know that you know it in your heart, and I know it in my heart. Fortunately, nothing serious happened, and you were caught for no reason...... The king didn't want to pursue too much. ”
Guo Jiting said: "King Xie." ”
Wen Yi said: "Don't be too happy, I have this account in mind." If you commit something in the future, let's settle the old account together. ”
Guo Jiting said: "Yes, if there is another offense, I will let the king deal with it." ”
Wen Yi said: "Get up, don't kneel." Except for the ancestors and parents of heaven and earth, the rest of my Datang are not worth kneeling. I hope you will remember this, embrace it, and put it into practice. ”
Guo Jiting got up and said, "Yes." ”
Wen Yi nodded and said, "I have asked someone to find you a place to stay, move over and live, and when you settle down, you will go to the palace to find me." ”
Guo Jiting said respectfully: "King Xie...... However, I have one thing I want to ask the king forbid. ”
Wen Yi said: "What's the matter?" ”
Guo Jiting beckoned to the room, and the girl walked over timidly and stood next to him.
"I have been fortunate to rely on Miss Wendou to take care of me for the past year, and I hope that the king will allow me to marry her."
Wen Yi was surprised, firstly, he didn't expect him to say about it, and secondly, because of ......
"Haven't you been together ......for nearly a year?"
Guo Jiting said: "I have a love affair with Miss Wendou, and there is nothing to do......"
Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly he was stuck, and he couldn't say the rest of the words anymore.
Quietly looked at Wen Yi and found that his face was gloomy and about to drip water.
Wen Yi gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't expect you Guo Jiting to be a decent gentleman, but it really impresses me." ”
Guo Jiting said very simply: "I am guilty, please punish the king." ”
Wen Yi sneered: "I'm not that stingy yet. But you are indeed a smart person, and you know how to please me, and I hope that in the future you will use this cleverness in government affairs, not how to please me. ”
Guo Jiting hurriedly said: "Thank you for the teachings of the king." ”
Wen Yi said to the girl again: "Miss Wendou, are you willing to marry him?" Don't be afraid, let's be honest. If I am willing, I will fulfill you, and if I am not willing to find you a wishful man. ”
Wen Dou glanced up at Wen Yi, then quickly lowered his head and said, "Guo Lang is very good to me, I am willing." ”
Wen Yi said: "Okay, this jade pendant will be given to you as a gift, if you are wronged, go to the palace to find me...... Find the queen mother, she will call the shots for you. ”
Wen Dou was a little timid and didn't dare to take it, until Guo Jiting gave her a look before she took it: "King Xie." ”
Wen Yi nodded, and said to Guo Jiting: "I know the methods of people like you, it is easy to play a simple little girl. ”
"It's easy to even ask them to die silently, and it can make people unable to find a problem."
"I'll leave the words here now, for whatever reason, as long as she dies in front of you, I'll send you down to accompany her, understand?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Guo Jiting's forehead again, and said, "Yes, I will definitely take care of her and never let her be hurt in any way." ”
Wen Yi nodded, then turned to leave.
It's not that he's suspicious, there is a saying that people are happy in middle age, and they get promoted to get rich and die of their wives.
Now that Guo Jiting is using Wen Dou to curry favor with him, it is hard to guarantee that he will meet a more suitable woman in the future, and he will not kill Wen Dou and marry another one.
Now he's just blocking the road.
Maybe he wronged Guo Jiting, but for such a scheming person, it is not an exaggeration to think of him as vicious.
Some people may wonder, why do you have to use this person?
It's very simple, the officialdom of the Tang State is too harmonious.
In the past, he thought that such an environment was too good, and everyone worked together vigorously. But now his mentality has changed, and this harmony makes him feel uneasy.
He wanted the court to have a little more different voices, and Guo Jiting was the-stirring stick.
It was not early when he came out of Xishu Courtyard, and he was about to return to the palace. Just the thought of facing Xie Daoyun made him feel his scalp tingle.
How do you explain it?
