259 Threat
Upon hearing this, Sun Dan said seriously: "Master Guo, as far as I know, the reason why the Huadaniu family gave the land to your Guo family is because they wanted to avoid state taxation, and they used Xu Yu's six acres of land. Why is it lost in vain? You also served as a county magistrate. You said that if this kind of thing is allowed to happen, everyone will follow suit. It may not take decades. The country has no source of taxation. You and I are both scholars. Born, and living on the royal salary, how can you do such a thing?"

Guo Pu didn't take it seriously, and continued to roar: "The Hua family gave me the land, who knows what they want to do, anyway, the land was given to me, and it belongs to me, Guo Pu, and anyone wants to take it back." He was scolded by Sun Dan, Naturally, she was furious, her head was in a daze, and she didn't think about why Han Yue was so afraid of Sun Dan just now.

In his view, it is normal for people to be afraid of officials.Although Han Yue used to be a member of Jinyiwei, but now she is a commoner.It was probably because he was weak-boned, and he was terrified when he saw a sitting official like Sun Dan.

Guo Pu even scolded disdainfully in his heart: What kind of bullshit Han Daxia, he is a useless thing in a big scene.

Guo Pu: "When our Guo family is somewhere, I have to spit out the land sent by me, I really think you are a county magistrate, I am! This Shuntian Mansion is like you, a seven-rank sesame and mung bean official. You really take that black gauze hat on your head seriously. Even if the governor of Shuntian met my old Guo, he would not be as big as you."

Sun Dan didn't care about Guo Pu's rant, and just said: "In any case, the Hua family and his son have to come out to talk, and it will be clear if you ask. I heard that you signed another contract with Hua Da Niu's family. A contract. The contract says that the land belongs to the Guo family in name, and the Hua family has to pay you a certain amount of rent every year, but in fact, the ownership of the land is owned by the Hua family, and the land deeds are also kept by the Hua family. My lord, am I right?"

Sun Dan's name is also attached to a lot of land that has been settled for tax evasion, and he knows this all too well.

It is estimated that Guo Pu will do the same.

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Guo Pu's face changed, and he shouted: "You can frame me."

Sun Dan: "False accusation or not, when Hua Daniu and his son are caught, it will be clear at the first trial? Mr. Guo, you should hurry up and hand over Hua Daniu's family."

Guo Pu: "Father Hua Daniu and his son have their own feet. How do I know where he went? Anyway, he is not with me."

Sun Dan smiled lightly: "Where else can I go if I'm not here with you, or can I find out if I search it now?"

"How dare you!" Guo Pu stomped his feet and shouted angrily, "Sun Dan, where do you think I am? You can search if you want. Who gave you the power?"

Sun Dan also lost his face: "I am the county magistrate of Fangshan, and handle the case impartially. Guo Pu, as a squire of this county, you are naturally obliged to cooperate with this official in carrying out official duties. Why, do you still want to stop it?"

"So what if I stop you?" Guo Pu's savagery also exploded. Wu Dinghou's family has always walked sideways in Shuntian Mansion. When was he bullied to the head?
It's just a small magistrate, or a magistrate from Juren's background, who lent him the courage?

Guo Pu let out a long roar: "Someone is here!"

Hearing Guo Pu's angry shout, a large group of servants carried sticks, whizzed and used them from all over the place, crowding a courtyard to the brim.

Sun Dan didn't expect that Guo Pu would openly turn against him, and he would be aggressive as soon as he came. This guy is really not ordinary domineering!
Feng Zhen's face was like sinking water, he took a step forward and stepped in front of Sun Dan, protecting the master's house, his hands slightly gathered momentum, and only waited for Sun Dan's order to kill him.In his eyes, Han Yue's group of thugs might still have some skills, and they really opened up, and they really couldn't control them for a while.

But this group of servants just bullied ordinary people, and none of them had practiced martial arts.

Feng Zhen is confident that he will bring all these people to the ground in a short time.

Sun Dan was not afraid in his heart, he pushed Feng Zhen away, put his hands behind his back, and said proudly: "Guo Pu, I am an official, and you are a citizen now, what, do you want to hinder the public affairs, kill the official and rebel? Who will lend it to you?" Your guts?"

Sun Dan's stern shout frightened the family members of the Guo family, they are just tenants of the Guo family, if they dare to fight the official in front of them.Hearing this cry, all the servants shrank and dared not move forward.

Seeing that his subordinates were afraid and furious, Guo Pu urged him repeatedly, but no one stepped forward.

Sun Dan laughed in his heart: "Yes, don't move."

Guo Pu's face was flushed with anger, and he said angrily, "Sun Dan, I don't want to fight with you. However, there are hundreds of people in our Guo family. If you have the ability, you can give me the third father of the Hua family." find out."

Sun Dan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Guo Pu was subdued, "Guo Pu, since you nodded, then I will not be polite."

Guo Pu: "Slow down."

Sun Dan: "Master Guo, what else do you have to say?"

Guo Pu said bitterly: "Master Sun, if you can't find the father and son of the Hua family, what can you say? Not everyone in my Guo mansion can come and search, if they can't be found, I want you to give me some advice. .”

Sun Dan: "What if I find out?"

Guo Pu: "If the Hua family father and son are found, I don't want the Hua family's land, and I will hand over the three to you."

Sun Dan: "Okay, let's do this."

Seeing Sun Dan nodding his head, Guo Pu sneered, and suddenly asked: "Master Sun, do you know what the Hua family father and son look like? I think it's the first time you and your servants have come back to Fangshan. I'm afraid even the people in the county government office There are not enough people, let alone three sharecroppers."

Sun Dan suddenly realized that he really didn't know what the Hua Daniu father and son looked like.He pondered for a moment, then said: "The yamen servants in my hands are coming soon, they naturally know Hua Daniu."

Guo Pu continued to sneer: "Not necessarily."

While talking, there was a commotion, and Sun Hao finally arrived late with the group of yamen servants.

Sun Hao was covered in slush, with an angry expression on his face, he walked up to Sun Dan, and said in a low voice: "Brother Dan, when these bastards heard that they were coming to Guojiazhuang, they refused to move forward. After a long time, I finally drove them over like ducks. What's the situation now?"

There was no expression on Sun Dan's face, and he probably told Sun Hao what happened just now.

Sun Hao hurriedly shouted to the group of yamen servants under him: "Stop talking nonsense, do it right away, and find that Hua Da Niu father and son for me."

All the yamen servants looked at each other, but no one made a move.

Sun Hao was furious, and shouted to all the yamen servants: "Zhi Niang, what's the matter, can't you stop the pestilence?"

The smile in Guo Pu's eyes became even wider, his eyes suddenly swept across the faces of the yamen servants, and he asked loudly: "Everyone, Mr. Sun wanted to search my Guo family just now. Guo Pu has no official position now, so he is naturally powerless." Resist. Search if you want, don't give me old Guo face. However, I want to ask you, do any of you know the Hua family father and son? They are all blind dates in the village. As the saying goes, iron-clad yamen, flowing water , we will deal with each other for the rest of our lives."

The tone of this sentence became more and more serious, and it was already a naked threat.

Guo Pu already had a plan in mind, the group of yamen servants in front of him had dealt with him for many years, and many of them had benefited from the Guo family, so they would not help Sun Dan, an outsider, to embarrass him.

Sun Dan was startled suddenly, he didn't expect Guo Pu to do this to him, a vague uneasiness rose from the bottom of his heart.

Sure enough, when Guo Pu asked, all the yamen servants looked at me and I looked at you, and they remained silent for a long time.

Sun Dan: "What's wrong with you?"

A squad leader timidly stepped forward, smiling: "Master Sun, this, this... I don't know the father and son of the Hua family!" He turned his head and asked the servants under him: "Brothers, does anyone know Hua Daniu? ?”

Scattered voices sounded: "I don't know."

Sun Dan still had no expression on his face, but Sun Hao was so angry that his face turned blue. He picked up the whip and whipped it all over the heads of the officials: "I don't know, I don't know!"

The few yamen servants who were drawn did not dare to resist. They squatted down covering their heads, and shouted exaggeratedly: "Master Sun, Master Sun, the young ones stay in the county town all day long and rarely leave the city. There are more than ten people in Fangshan County. Tens of thousands of households, we can’t possibly know all of them, right?”

Guo Pu saw that Sun Dan and the others were making a fuss first, so he couldn't help laughing triumphantly, the laughter shook the snow on the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard: "Haha, Sun Dan, Mrs. Sun, old Guo, I am not Let you search, but you don't know the Hua family and his son, Lao Guo can't help you with this matter. Didn't I just say that Hua Daniu and his son are not with me, and you don't believe it."

Although Sun Dan had no expression on his face, he was a little anxious in his heart. He also regretted that if he had known about it, he would have brought the Zhou family over to identify him.It's a pity that it came in a hurry, and I didn't expect such an accident.

Could it be that the first fire of my new official's appointment was extinguished so silently?

When he was in a hurry, he suddenly glanced at Han Yue from the corner of his eye.

Han Yue saw Sun Dan and Guo Pu fighting just now, and knew that the two sides were powerful, and neither of them could be offended, so she quietly led her subordinates to stand aside quietly to watch the excitement.

Seeing Sun Dan's gaze, he felt cold and quickly shrank his head.

Sun Dan's voice sounded like a magic voice piercing the brain: "Han Yue."

Han Yue's body trembled: "The villain is here."

Sun Dan said coldly: "You take Sun Hao to find someone."

Han Yue's face turned pale: "Little man, little man..."

Sun Dan: "You won't tell me that you don't know Hua Daniu's family?"

Han Yue received money from the Hua family, so he naturally knew Hua Daniu, father and son.When he beat Zhou Xinshu earlier, the Hua family father and son were also present, so it was natural that this matter should be implemented on his head, Han Yue.

Han Yue stammered: "Villain, villain..."

Guo Pu also realized that something was wrong, he was startled and angry, and looked at Han Yue like a diamond: "Han Yue, if Master Sun asks you, you have to answer it well, if you know it, you know it, if you don't know it, you don't know it If there is any concealment, hmph, you, Han Yue, are a rebel from the Beiya, and now you have set up a gang in the capital to oppress the people and disturb the law and order. At that time, a rope will tie you up, don't blame yourself for suffering."
