Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"Then how can it be done?" Li Yifu said: "I used to have eyes that didn't recognize Mount Tai. Now that I know your true identity, it's too ignorant to call you big brother with the cheek. Qin Wang Qiansui will never mention the matter of marriage. .”

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "I don't like to hear what you say. The friendship between brothers lies in the intimacy. What does it have to do with identity?"

"Then...thanks to elder brother for not giving up, younger brother, I will be able to climb high."

Guo Ye said solemnly: "It's not about being tall, brother, don't underestimate yourself. From my point of view, you are an outstanding person, and your future achievements may not be inferior to mine. It's just..."

"how?"

"I have a sentence I want to give you, I hope you will always remember it when you are full of ambition."

"What?"

"You have to forgive others and forgive others, and you can't do everything!"

Li Yi's mansion is just a small county magistrate now, how could he have imagined the power and prestige of the government in the future?

Although Guo Ye's words were a warning, the implied meaning was clearly that by that time, he would definitely have the power to "not forgive others" and "do nothing".

Thanks to Guo Ye's attention, Li Yifu blushed with excitement, and said, "I've been taught. Brother, I will definitely remember what you said, and I won't dare to forget it for a while."

Guo Ye didn't want to continue entanglement on this topic, so he changed the subject and said, "Now there is one thing that depends on the great talent of my virtuous brother. What do you think about Zhang Xin, the governor of Maozhou?"

"Brother, did you test me?" Li Yifu said, "It's easy to handle. I'm afraid Zhang Xin will impeach me for forging official documents in a few days. You can send him to Chengdu for confrontation, and then wait for the opportunity to take him down."

Guo Ye sighed slightly, and said: "It is easy to take him down, but it is difficult to convict him. After all, the court has official documents first, and the crime of forced buying and selling cannot be placed on him. Liao people have been exploited, and he has at most one crime of negligence."

"Didn't you issue an official document?"

"I can issue an official document to invalidate the previous official document, but I can't punish him accordingly. In other words... this official document is enough to deal with Zhang Fu, but it is not enough to deal with Zhang Xin."

"And Zhang Fu beat people to death?"

"Zhang Fu is Zhang Fu, and Zhang Xin is Zhang Xin. It is not easy for Zhang Fu's life lawsuit to be brought to Zhang Xin's body."

Li Yifu gritted his teeth, revealing his true nature as a treacherous minister, and said: "Otherwise, we'll invent him some crimes, or directly frame him? How can he, a little Maozhou governor, escape from your grasp?"

"Uh...that's not necessary. It's not that far yet. My dear brother, think about some more honest way."

Li Yifu stood up, took two steps back and forth, and said, "Yes! I'm afraid this matter will still fall on the Maozhou Commercial Bank!"

"You mean to investigate the illegality of the Maozhou Commercial Bank?" Guo Ye said: "Even if it is found out, it may be difficult to implicate Zhang Xin. This is not as good as Zhang Fu's life lawsuit."

Li Yifu said: "What if Maozhou Commercial Bank sends money to Zhang Xin?"

"Send money? Maozhou Commercial Bank is Zhang Xin's business, so what's the problem with sending him money?"

"How is that possible?" Li Yifu said: "Even if the imperial court gave Maozhou the right to monopolize the business. This business itself can only be run by the government, and it cannot be Zhang Xin's private property. Zhang Xin has the ability to reach the sky. There is no way to turn the public into private.”

"Is this true?"

"Let's look for that official document, and we'll know it at a glance. I don't believe it anymore, Zhang Xin has such a big face that the imperial court gave him the right to monopolize his private property."

The official document was quickly found, and the two of them studied it carefully, both of them were delighted.Guo Ye said: "Your brother guessed right, I will leave this matter to you."

"Brother, don't worry, little brother will not let you down. Zhang Xin is so enthusiastic about Maozhou Commercial Bank that he even sent the housekeeper out to kill people. How is it possible that he didn't take money from the commercial bank?"

Li Yifu promised with full confidence, but the reality soon gave him a blow to the head.

When he sent someone to check the account books of the Maozhou Commercial Bank, all the shops belonging to the Maozhou Commercial Bank had closed down, and the boss and his buddies fled away and returned to Maozhou Fucheng.

This is troublesome, let alone whether Zhang Xin's criminal evidence can be found, the aftermath of this matter alone is enough for Li Yifu to drink a pot.

You know, after Zhang Boping's rectification, all transactions in Lingquan County belonged to Maozhou Commercial Bank.

Closing all the doors at once is equivalent to the strike of businessmen in the whole county.It has brought great inconvenience to the lives of the people in the city.Even the merchants who bought the goods complained a lot.

The image of Li Yifu who had just established the Qingtian Grand Master collapsed suddenly.

When he was in a state of desperation, someone came to report that Zhang Xin, the governor of Maozhou, had arrived.

Li Yifu was taken aback when he heard the news, why did Zhang Xin come?Logically speaking, shouldn't he be in a hurry to impeach me now?

Chapter 2076

Zhang Xin insisted on coming to Shiquan County instead of waiting in the capital city of Maozhou. What is the reason for this?It's a long story.

Time back to three days ago.

Zhang Boping was not as smart as Li Yifu thought, or he was too smart.It was obvious at a glance that the official document was genuine.

So, after leaving the county government office, the first thing Zhang Boping did was to order the shop of Maozhou Commercial Bank to close down, and the boss and his buddies withdrew back to Maozhou with the gold and silver coins and ledgers.

"It's over, it's over! Father, you are over! What should we do?" Zhang Boping yelled as soon as he entered the Dudu's mansion.

Zhang Xin was not in a good mood today, but after hearing this, he became even more depressed.He said viciously: "I'm not dead yet, what's the mourning!"

Zhang Boping muttered: "Although he is not dead, I am afraid he is not far from death."

"How do you talk, kid?!" Zhang Xin flew up and kicked at Zhang Boping.

Zhang Boping dodged quickly, and apologized: "No, my son was too excited, and he couldn't choose what to say. I hope my father will forgive me!"

"Curse your father to die without saying anything?"

"I'm not cursing you, but now that my Zhang family is in great trouble, maybe your old man is really in danger of killing himself."

"what happened?"

"It's like this..."

Zhang Boping told Zhang Boping what had happened, and finally said: "Father, think about it, this official document is related to the overall situation of Maozhou. King Qin didn't give it to you, but gave it to Shiquan County Magistrate. Isn't this a great disaster?"

"How do you say this?"

"This shows that he doesn't trust you anymore! He has already discovered the secret of our father and son's use of the Maozhou Commercial Bank to make money, so he issued such an official document to Shiquan County. It is clear that the previous official document is to be abolished, and the implied meaning is, It is to find out the crimes of our father and son!"

He paused for a moment, then continued: "Unfortunately, although the county magistrate of Shiquan is quite wealthy, his sworn brother couldn't hold back and exposed the official document in advance, so that his son could see the clue."

Zhang Xin stared, and said, "Is this your inference?"

"Yes!"

"Nonsense! Wrong, you are completely wrong."

"What's wrong with my son?"

Zhang Dao: "Let me ask you, do you know who the sworn brother of the Shiquan county magistrate is?"
