Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

It turned out to be,

Ma Yuanju!

Guo Ye's eyes widened suddenly, and he didn't know how to reply for a while.

Today's Ma Yuanju is still only a ninth-rank meritorious officer in the Longxi County Government, and a ninth-rank meritorious officer can be referred to as a Shangguan in the state government. Even if it is an eighth-rank military officer, it is also a Shangguan.

According to Yu Gong, there is nothing wrong with Ma Yuanju's behavior.

But what about private?

The two have a very close personal relationship, and have shared hardships together, especially when Guo Ye was penniless, Ma Yuanju was already a ninth-rank meritorious scholar, but he never cared about despising and underestimating him.

On the contrary, he supported him all the way. Although he occasionally played tricks, he never caused Guo Ye to suffer a secret loss. Moreover, from the final result, it seemed that it was all beneficial to Guo Ye.

The two supported each other and took care of each other all the way. In Guo Ye's heart, Ma Yuanju was not a benefactor, but better than a benefactor;

However, times have changed, and now everyone has different opportunities, and their identities suddenly have a huge difference.

Ma Yuanju was still the same Ma Yuanju as before, and he was still a ninth-rank official in the Cao Fang of the Longxi County Yamen.

And what about Guo Ye?

Now it has skyrocketed, and in just over a month, he was promoted from a small class leader in commoner clothes to a ninth-rank patrol inspector. Today, he has even been favored by the governor. Sergeant.

Ma Yuan took a step up when he was big enough.

From the words and actions of the other party, Guo Ye could see that Ma Yuanju had obviously learned about his adventure in Minjiang from Cheng Erniu's return to the city.

But, can he really accept Ma Yuanju's bow?

No!

Guo Ye quickly stepped forward to support Ma Yuanju, and said: "Ma Gongcao, I can't bear this bow from you. You have done me a great favor, and you should repay the favor of supporting me. And, you and I We have cooperated seamlessly all the way, shared weal and woe, why should we be so divided? I, Guo Ye, are still the Guo Ye of that day, there is really no need for this!"

"no!"

Ma Yuanju put on a straight face, and said very righteously: "Guo Bingsi is the sixth-rank official of the state capital from the eighth rank. If it is still not possible to distinguish between superiors and inferiors, how can we do it in the future?" Leading [-] regiments to train troops to wipe out the waters of six counties, how can you clear up the law and order on the river for Yizhou Prefecture? You deserve this gift from Mr. Ma, and you must accept it."

After saying that, he gently pushed away the arms that Guo Ye was holding, and bowed in a respectful salute again.

hiss……

Guo Ye understands!

Ma Yuanju is doing this for him today, for him in front of his old brothers.

The purpose is that in the future, I will be able to implement orders and prohibitions, and follow the example, so that the brothers will not laugh at him and refuse to obey the orders in the future.

Think about it, even people like Ma Yuanju treat Guo Ye like this, how can others dare to rely on their friendship with Guo Xiaoge, without rules or distance?

really,

Pang Feihu, Fatty Zhu, Gan Zhushou, Sun Mingyan, Ruan Laosan, Guan Jiujiu and others, especially Cheng Erniu, a dude, all looked at each other, watching the actions of Guo Ye and Ma Yuanju in front of them.

Everyone slowly put away the somewhat frivolous faces just now, and looked dignified, as if thinking about something.

suddenly,

Pang Feihu and Fatty Zhu glanced at each other, first bowed to Guo Ye, and then shouted loudly: "See Guo Bingsi!"

Then,

Gan Zhushou, Sun Mingyan, Ruan Laosan, Guan Jiujiu and others followed suit one by one, bowing and shouting "I have met Guo Bingsi" and "I have met Guo Tuan Lianshi" in loud voices.

Cheng Erniu was taken aback by the scene at first, then hesitated, and finally shouted with a solemn expression: "Cheng Erniu has seen Guo Tuan Lianshi!"

With these people taking the lead, how could anyone in the arena dare to open and shut their mouths and shout, Brother Guo?Naturally, they followed suit with shouting and saluting.

This scene was seen by Wu Xiuxiu beside Guo Ye, and he couldn't help being a little moved, especially when he looked at Ma Yuanju with a little more admiration in his eyes.

With the friendship and status of Ma Yuanju and Guo Ye, it is not easy to achieve this level.

Public is public, private is private, and public and private are distinct.

Wu Xiuxiu couldn't help murmuring in Guo Ye's ear: "A person with a broad mind like Mr. Ma is a true Confucianist!"

Guo Ye glanced at Wu Xiuxiu in surprise, but he didn't expect this lukewarm little girl to praise Ma Yuanju so much.

Then he stepped forward to hold Ma Yuanju's right arm, and said in a deep voice, "Master Ma, I owe you a huge favor again."

Ma Yuanju naturally understood the implication, but he didn't respond with words, but smiled and replied softly: "Finally, it's really not easy for you, a treacherous and oily kid, to say this yourself!"

"what?"

Guo Ye was stunned at first, and then laughed wildly up to the sky: "Haha, Ma Gongcao, you're doing me another favor!"

Of course, this is just Guo Ye's joke to adjust the atmosphere.

In an instant, the whole scene swept away the solemn and rigorous atmosphere just now, and returned to the previous festive atmosphere.

A small episode, the purpose is only to stand up for Guo Ye, that's all!

Afterwards, Guo Ye took Wu Xiuxiu, Ma Yuanju and all the brothers back slowly towards Longxi County.

……

……

About an hour later, the two-entry and two-exit compound of the Guo Mansion on Fushun Lane, including Wu Maocai's house next door, was temporarily requisitioned by Guo Ye, and a running water table was set up to entertain all brothers, friends and friends who had friendship with Guo Ye. So old.

The purpose is to celebrate the great joy of the Guo family Dalang, who was promoted to the assistant officer of the military division of Yizhou Prefecture, and concurrently served as the training envoy of the six counties of Yizhou.

This is not only a happy event for the Guo family, but also a great happy event for the Wu family. Anyway, Guo Ye is also the nominal son-in-law of the Wu family.

Of course, this is a great joy for the Guojiaban in Longxi County.

One person ascends to the sky with a chicken and a dog, and now Xiaoge Guo flies on a branch and turns into a phoenix, and the people below will naturally get a share of the pie, right?Even if they don't get a share of the pie, it is a sure thing that everyone's status in Longxi County will rise with the tide.

Who made us belong to Brother Guo, the direct line of the Guo family class?

Guo Ye is so beautiful, the Guo family and the Wu family will naturally not go to the brocade clothes night walk, the scene of this flowing water banquet can be as big as it is, and they even declared to the city that if they put him on for three days and three nights, anyone who can be called People who name Guo Xiaoge, or who come to the door to say congratulations, can sit in the table and drink and eat meat. The wine is enough, and the meat is full.

The entire Longxi County was completely robbed of its glory by Fushun Lane, and people rushed to Fushun Lane like a tide.

Of course, some people are happy and happy, while others are depressed and uncomfortable, like sitting on pins and needles.

A typical representative of them is naturally the county Wei Gu Dezhao who is in charge of the security of a county.
