The first thousand one hundred and sixty-four chapters dog county magistrate
Admit your mistake?
The corners of Du He's mouth rose slightly: "Why should I admit my mistake if I am wrong?"
The county magistrate said: "You arrested people without the order of the county magistrate. This is one. Second, you took the official document and showed it to the public everywhere, but the county magistrate did not know. Could it be that the official seal was carved by you privately?"
?This is a serious crime!"
Gao Yuanzhi put his hands behind his back, snorted coldly, and waited for Du He to confess.
Du He smiled and said: "First of all, I am the county captain of Wannian County. I am responsible for catching thieves and safeguarding the safety of the people. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, I do not need the consent of the county magistrate. Therefore, it is said that I arrest people without authorization.
, is not established at all.”
Gao Yuanzhi and the county magistrate were both stunned.
The two of them did not expect that Du He was very clear about the responsibilities of the county captain.
The county magistrate gritted his teeth and said, "Even so, what about your private engraving of the official seal?"
Du He said calmly: "This is what County Magistrate Gao agreed to!"
Before he finished speaking, Gao Yuanzhi said excitedly: "Nonsense, when did I allow you to engrave the official seal privately?"
Du He smiled, took out a piece of paper and waved it in front of Gao Yuanzhi.
It was the promise Gao Yuanzhi made to Du He before. Gao Yuanzhi not only signed and stamped it, but also stamped it with his official seal.
The content of the promise is also simple, that is, Du He must handle the two things assigned by Gao Yuanzhi within a month, one is the security issue in East Chang'an City, and the other is the tax recovery issue, and Gao Yuanzhi fully cooperates with Du He,
All official documents that Du He needed must be stamped with the official seal by Gao Yuanzhi.
At that time, the reason why Gao Yuanzhi agreed so simply was because he had his own plan, which was to quickly hide the official seal, claim that the official seal was lost, and refuse to give Du He the official seal.
He widened his eyes and said: "Lieutenant Du County, what do you mean? I heard that there are dozens of official documents you showed to the public today. When did I give you my official seal?"
Du He pointed at the promise and said: "County Magistrate Gao, your promise is clearly written. Whenever I need official documents, you agree to affix the official seal... Then, if you are not the one to affix these official seals, you
Isn't it a violation of the promise? If you violate the promise, then the agreement between us will no longer exist, and the military order I issued will not be valid. If you stamped these official seals, it would be reasonable, what do you think?
?”
Du He's analysis is reasonable and well-founded.
But Gao Yuanzhi felt dizzy after hearing this.
He looked confused and didn't understand what Du He was talking about.
After a long while, he said: "Co-author, did you agree to all these things?"
"That's right..."
Gao Yuanzhi asked the county magistrate, "Is that so?"
The county magistrate nodded: "Sir, that seems to be the case."
Gao Yuanzhi: "..."
He flicked his sleeves and said, "Okay, County Lieutenant Du, I bet you are cruel, huh! However, these prisoners must be interrogated by me. As a county lieutenant, you only have the power to arrest people, but you do not have the power to interrogate prisoners..."
If I don't interrogate you all the time, it depends on you, huh!"
After saying that, he tossed his sleeves and left.
Du He turned around and said to Ma San'er and others: "Everyone, I'll ask you to work hard tonight and take a good look at these guys. Tomorrow, I will question them all and deal with them together."
Zhang San was surprised and said: "Sir, didn't the county magistrate just say that he would not interrogate these people? As a county captain, it seems that you cannot interrogate these people, right?"
"This young master has his own way!"
…
Early next morning.
Gao Yuanzhi's eyes were red.
He didn't sleep all night.
The concubine who had just been brought into the room suddenly no longer smelled good.
He wanted to take revenge on Du He, but after a night passed, he found nothing.
"Cunning, such a cunning boy..."
"This is really unreasonable!"
Gao Yuanzhi was so angry that his teeth itched when he thought of Du He.
Just as he said this, he saw the county magistrate coming in a hurry.
The county magistrate said: "My lord, something is wrong...Lan Mingyu suddenly took away all the carload of good spices that he gave to you."
What?
Gao Yuanzhi's eyes widened.
In this day and age, spices are scarce.
A cart of spices is priceless.
The Lan Mingyu mentioned by the county magistrate is Mr. Lan's father.
Lan's father and son were famous spice merchants in Chang'an City, with a fortune of hundreds of thousands, and they often bribed Gao Yuanzhi.
Now, Lan Mingyu actually took away the spices delivered a few days ago without saying a word, which is quite remarkable.
Gao Yuanzhi said nervously: "What does Lan Mingyu mean?"
The county magistrate said helplessly: "It is said that Lan Mingyu claimed to the outside world that he had given you countless benefits, and in the end you arrested his son and sent him to the county jail. He couldn't bear this tone."
Gao Yuanzhi used his only brain to analyze: "This is not a declaration to the outside world. It is clearly a demonstration. He is warning me that if he doesn't let his son go quickly, he will completely fall out."
The county magistrate asked: "What should we do now? Should we let Mr. Lan go first?"
Gao Yuanzhi frowned: "It's a bit difficult to handle. Du County Lieutenant is determined to deal with Mr. Lan, and he won't even give me face. He still has my letter of commitment in his hand. If I fall out with him, what will happen next?"
I'm afraid it will have a bad impact if things get out of hand... Let me think of another way. You send someone to tell Lan Mingyu. Anyway, Mr. Lan is temporarily in jail, with food and drink, and Du County Lieutenant has no right to interrogate him.
In a few days, I will think of a way to release him."
The county captain was about to agree.
But I heard a commotion outside.
Gao Yuanzhi asked: "What is the sound and why is it so noisy?"
The county magistrate shook his head.
“Go check it out!”
The two hurriedly walked from the backyard to the front yard.
As soon as I walked near the county government hall, I saw the front yard full of people.
It was crowded and crowded, and it was so lively, even worse than the East Market.
Gao Yuanzhi frowned: "Why are there so many people? What's going on?"
An old man glanced at Gao Yuanzhi, but did not recognize Gao Yuanzhi's identity, and said carelessly: "You don't know... Today, the newly appointed Du County Lieutenant in Wannian County will personally interrogate Mr. Lan and these rogues. There are three in total."
Sixteen people... What's the point of being fair and just, and all the people can come and watch... Oh my, you don't know, I remember the last time the Wannian County Government interrogated the case, it was more than ten years ago... Now...
The magistrate of Wannian County, I heard that Gao Yuanzhi is just a loser. If our East Chang'an City had not been supported by the Jingzhao Mansion Office, it would have been in chaos long ago... What do you think, this kind of dog magistrate?
Should he be killed?"
Gao Yuanzhi felt a chill in his neck.
He glared at the old man and said angrily: "You can't talk about the county magistrate casually. I'll take you in and beat you to death."
The old man said disdainfully: "What a dog magistrate, let's not let anyone talk about it. We used to dare to be angry and dare not speak out, but now it's better. Duke Hu has come to serve as a county captain, and there are county captains to protect us. That dog magistrate
So what!"
Gao Yuanzhi almost died of anger.
He was scolded by people like a magistrate, but it was difficult for him to get angry.
