Chapter 497
"Bang bang..."
The officials fell to the ground one after another and were stepped on by the guys.
"Don't... fight..."
The head official lie on the ground, his feet on his back were like a mountain, which made him breathless.
He tried hard to take out a waist sign and held it high: "We... are real... official..."
"Oh, I'm really an official, not a bandit pretended to be..." A surprise sounded from the crowd.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper shouted to the staff: "Stop."
The guys immediately let go of the officials and retreated behind the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, are you really an official? Then I asked you just now why you smashed my shop and hurt my people, why didn't you make a sound?
"I destroyed my shop like this without saying anything. I thought it was a bandit who entered the city, but I didn't expect it was an official..."
Listening to these sarcastic words, the head official face was as dark as ink: "You heard rumors spread by the society and slandered the imperial court's orders, and the Minister ordered us to come and arrest you."
"Is that so? I dare to ask which Shangshu sent you here?" The shopkeeper looked at him leisurely.
The head official paused, wondering if he should report Guo Xingfang's name.
"Stop talking nonsense, just go to the yamen with us."
The shopkeeper said calmly without fear: "Then please show the arrest documents."
The head of the official officer was beaten up again, and the arrest documents were not available.
He looked out and gritted his teeth and said, "You wait."
"Let's go."
The officials left in shame.
The shopkeeper walked to the door and clasped his fists at everyone: "I'm sorry, I'm scared. I heard that the club is making a living in accordance with the law, not afraid of corrupt officials, I am even more abiding by the law and never do anything illegal. So please rest assured, wait for me to clean up the shop, and ask you to enjoy the scenery and come in and take a look."
Someone in the crowd responded: "We will naturally have to patronize the shopkeeper's generousness."
"Thank you, thank you."
The shopkeeper turned around and entered the shop and ordered the guy to clean up the mess.
Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, the people gradually dispersed.
Doctor Zhang looked at the shopkeeper deeply, then turned around and left.
But before I could walk far, I saw someone running in his direction and shouting loudly: "Here, come..."
The man ran very fast, running past Doctor Zhang like a gust of wind, and ran straight towards Shiwenshe.
The next moment, the sound of horse hooves came from behind. Soldiers in military uniforms appeared on the street on high-headed horses. The direction they were heading was the direction where the person who was just shouting ran.
After the people around were stunned, the gossip fire burned in their eyes again, and they raised their feet and followed the army.
Seeing the army parked at the gate of Shiwen Club, the people started talking whisperingly.
"Look, I was right just now. The one who sent the official mission to ask Shiwenshe was Guo Shangshu. The official mission could not handle it, so he sent an army. He was so domineering that only Guo Shangshu could do the entire Yizhou city."
"Ta, those people have not yet identified their identities. How do you know that they were sent by Shangshu Guo? Maybe they were sent by General Manager Dou."
"I bet that it must be that Shangshu Guo was exposed by Li Qilang, and he was so angry that he sent officials and troops to find trouble for Shiwenshe."
"Don't put the conclusion too early, we'll know it if we keep reading."
......
The leader did not dismount. He sat high on the horse's back and announced loudly: "The people of Shiwen Club colluded with bandits and were unforgivable. Come and arrest them all."
With a command, the soldiers behind him immediately rushed into Shiwen Club like a tide.
However, the next moment, the soldiers who rushed in slowly retreated.
Just as everyone was wondering, they saw a man in green walking out of Shiwen Club. He held a token in his hand. The soldiers retreated because they were afraid of the token in his hand.
When the commander saw the token, his face changed drastically.
The man in green put away the token and said coldly: "If you want to slander Shiwen Club, then take out real evidence or show the arrest documents. Otherwise, no one of you will step into Shiwen Club."
A wave of evil spirit came to his face, and the commander shivered involuntarily. He hesitated when he remembered the token he had just seen.
I didn't expect Shiwen Club to be so big...
However, Guo Shangshu told him to take Shiwen Society today, what should he do?
The two sides were in a stalemate.
......
The governor of Yizhou walked around the house with the piece of paper, raising his hand from time to time to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Listen carefully, you can still hear his low voice: "What should I do, what should I do..."
The chief clerk who was waiting beside him was dizzy and said, "Since Li Qilang has provided evidence, you should arrest Shangshu Guo according to law. Even if you don't arrest anyone, you should summon Shangshu Guo to the yamen to ask questions."
"Of course not." The governor of Yizhou flatly refused.
The chief clerk kindly reminded him: "If you keep dragging on this and do not take action, the people will be disappointed in you, and your political achievements will also be affected."
The governor of Yizhou was stunned and the people could not lose their hearts, but Shangshu Guo, he could not afford to offend him...
"Since the governor cannot make up his mind, please report this matter to the chief executive."
Yes, he can also report this matter to Dou Gui, who is the general manager of Yizhou and commands all the officials in Yizhou. It is most appropriate for him to come forward to hear the case.
"Good idea." The governor of Yizhou praised, and then ordered: "Go and see if General Manager Dou has returned from the military camp. If he enters the city, he will report it immediately."
"yes."
......
Guo’s Mansion.
"Has the person been arrested?"
Seeing the commander walking into the hall, Guo Xingfang couldn't wait to ask.
The commander did not dare to look at Guo Xingfang and lowered his head: "The behind Shiwen Club is not simple. They took out the token of the Qin Prince's Mansion. The subordinates did not dare to act rashly, so they did not arrest anyone..."
When Guo Xingfang heard the "Qin King's Mansion", he was stunned for a moment and then said, "What can the people of the Qin King do? They want to deal with me now, of course they have to arrest them all."
"But they have great martial arts skills, and many people are watching, we have no documents to arrest and no evidence..."
"What's wrong with no documents? What's wrong with no evidence? As long as you catch someone and torture, are you still afraid that they will not sign and seal it?" Guo Xingfang was so angry that he couldn't help but curse: "Idiots, a bunch of idiots."
The commander looked embarrassed and endured the shame and said, "The chief manager has returned to the city..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Xingfang changed his face.
After a while, he waved his hand: "You go down first."
After the commander left, Guo Xingfang attracted his confidant: "What's going on?"
The confidant responded respectfully: "I have investigated. Li Qilang's family has not been in Yizhou for a long time. There are no connections here, and there are no connections in the court. There are only twenty slaves in the mansion, so it is not worth fearing.
"However, Doctor Zhang and Taoist Yuan from Tiangongyuan live in Li's Mansion. They seem to have a good relationship with Li Qilang."
Guo Xingfang thought for a while: "Then let's get Doctor Zhang and Master Yuan faint when they start. Don't hurt them, kill everyone else."
