The first thousand one hundred and sixty-three chapters are not easy to speak
Gao Yuanzhi returned to Wannian County Government and felt very good.
Because when he was at Duke Xu's residence, he mentioned that he had framed Du He. Although his uncle Gao Shilian did not say it explicitly, he was very happy in his words.
Gao Yuanzhi thought to himself that as long as he could accomplish this matter, he would no longer be treated as a loser by his uncle, and he could be promoted to a higher position, and he would no longer have to be a small county magistrate for ten thousand years.
"Beep, bab, bab..."
At this moment, he was lying on the chair, humming a tune in his mouth, savoring the taste of his newest concubine.
boom.
The courtyard door was suddenly knocked open.
Gao Yuanzhi was furious: "Who is this blind person who dares to knock on my door? I don't want to live..."
He suddenly stood up.
But he saw the county magistrate running in in a panic.
The county magistrate stammered: "Sir, it's not good, it's not good, something big has happened... Lieutenant Du has taken Mr. Lan to the county jail."
What?
Gao Yuanzhi instantly turned pale: "This... Mr. Lan is an old friend of ours. Mr. Lan and his father and I often communicate with each other. Mr. Lan's family are all loyal people. Isn't Du County Lieutenant doing this for me?"
Are you adding to the chaos? This is unreasonable!"
Mr. Lan's family would send money and gifts to Gao Yuanzhi every now and then. Therefore, no one would dare to take care of Mr. Lan's misdeeds in East Chang'an City.
The county magistrate smacked his lips: "Sir, this is nothing... The key point is that now, the whole Chang'an City knows that you arrested Mr. Lan and put him in jail. When Du County Lieutenant arrested him, he took the official document of approval from you
Well, he also said that if Mr. Lan has anything to say, I’ll talk to you after I see you at the county government office..."
Gao Yuanzhi's eyes widened: "Nonsense, I have hidden my official seal a long time ago, how can I approve the official document for Du County Lieutenant?"
"But...many people have seen the official document, and it still has your official seal stamped on it."
Gao Yuanzhi's mind was in a mess.
He ran back to the house where he and his concubine lived, rummaged through the cabinets, and took out the official seal, only to find that the official seal had not been touched at all.
So what happened to the approval document in Du He's hand and the official seal on it?
Gao Yuanzhi was a little confused.
After a while, he flicked his sleeves and said: "Go and rescue Mr. Lan first, and then investigate the matter of the official seal."
After saying that, he took the county magistrate and hurried to the southwest corner of the county government office.
This place is the county government prison.
Originally, this prison was deserted and dilapidated, with no one else in it except rats.
But when Gao Yuanzhi walked closer, he heard the bustle of people inside the prison.
He saw from a distance that there were actually several government servants carrying water and fire sticks guarding the door of the prison.
He frowned and asked, "What's going on? Why are there so many people in the prison?"
There was a trace of bitterness on the corner of the county magistrate's mouth: "My lord, you don't know something. County Lieutenant Du not only arrested Mr. Lan, but also brought people with him to arrest the rogues in East Chang'an City in one go. Everyone arrested them
, all showed your documents... When I just got the news, it was said that more than 20 people had been arrested, but now it seems that there are more than 20 arrested..."
Gao Yuanzhi: "..."
He cursed secretly in his heart.
The rogues in East Chang'an City gave him many things.
Now, if all these people are arrested, doesn't it mean that he has taken other people's things and hasn't settled the matter yet?
Gao Yuanzhi was furious.
He walked quickly to the prison door.
I saw that the person leading the guard was none other than Ma San'er.
"Ma San'er," Gao Yuanzhi said displeased, "What are you doing?"
Ma San'er hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Majesty, we are guarding these prisoners under the orders of Du County Lieutenant."
"Nonsense...Have I warned you not to follow Du County Lieutenant's orders? Here, you can only listen to me. How dare you guys dare to follow Du County Lieutenant's orders privately...
..." Gao Yuanzhi was furious.
Ma San'er did not panic and said: "Sir...but, Du County Lieutenant has a document with your official seal, we have to obey."
Official seal!
Documents!
This again!
Gao Yuanzhi's lungs almost exploded with anger.
He resisted the urge to go berserk and said to Ma San'er: "What bullshit official documents are all fake. I have never issued any official documents. You guys, let everyone go immediately. Is Mr. Lan also in it?"
?You give him to me right away... No, I should go and ask him out personally."
To Gao Yuanzhi, Mr. Lan is the God of Wealth.
He cursed and was about to go inside, but was stopped by Ma San'er: "Sir, you can't go in!"
"Huh?" Gao Yuanzhi frowned.
Ma San'er said: "I'm sorry, sir, the county captain has an order. Without his order, no one can go in."
"I can't do it either?"
"No, the county captain has said that it won't work even if the Emperor comes here."
Gao Yuanzhi was a little dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that he, a dignified county magistrate, would have difficulty speaking.
Not only Ma San'er, but also several people behind Ma San'er looked like they didn't care about him at all.
He suddenly became furious: "Ma San'er, are you going to rebel? Well, I will fire you now. You all, go away. You are no longer county government servants."
Ma San'er said expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, sir, I can't leave even half a step without the order from the county captain."
The other government officials also looked as if they were ready to die.
Gao Yuanzhi couldn't bear this tone and shouted: "Come here, break the legs of these guys and throw them out."
Suddenly a dozen government officials rushed towards the door.
Seeing these people take action.
Ma San'er and others were not afraid at all, they raised the water and fire sticks in their hands and prepared to fight back.
at this time.
"stop!"
A figure sounded not far away.
Gao Yuanzhi and others turned around and saw Du He leading Zhang San and Li Si walking this way.
Gao Yuanzhi's eyes suddenly burst open and he shouted: "Lieutenant Du County, you came just in time, I am looking for you..."
Du He stepped forward with a smile and asked, "I wonder what County Magistrate Gao wants to do with me?"
Gao Yuanzhi pointed to the overcrowded cell and asked: "Look at the good things you have done. You arrested so many people in prison at once. What do you want to do?"
Du He chuckled, "These scoundrels were doing evil in East Chang'an City and oppressing the people. The county captain happened to see them and arrested them. They are going to interrogate them tomorrow and deal with them according to my laws of the Tang Dynasty. County Magistrate Gao,
Do you think it’s inappropriate?”
Nothing wrong!
Reasonable!
But Gao Yuanzhi didn't think so. He said angrily: "Without my order, how can you arrest people at will... Also, I heard that every time you arrest someone, you will show the public an official document with my official seal. That officer
Where does the article come from, and why does it have my official seal? If you don’t give me an explanation today, I will report all your actions immediately and see how you do it!"
The county magistrate came over in a hurry and said in a low voice: "Lieutenant Du County, Mr. Gao is very angry. You'd better admit your mistake quickly."
