Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 1913

"Not only do I know where your capital is, but I also know that you mainly believe in the Eastern Orthodox Church, which can be referred to as the Orthodox Church! I also know that your place is different from our Tang Dynasty, where the clothes are purple, monogamy, and concubines are not allowed. .”

Guo Ye was so clear about the Eastern Roman Empire that he really stunned Deng Qibin.

Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.Deng Yangren already had ghosts in his heart, how could he be afraid when he suddenly met someone who knew the inside story of his hometown?

He forced himself to be calm and said: "Mr. Qin Guo has profound knowledge, and I admire you so much! What else do you know about my motherland?"

Guo Ye's face darkened, and he said sharply: "I also know that you are lying! These glassware are not yours at all. Tell me! Did you steal it, snatch it, or cheat it?"

As soon as he said these words, it was as if the earth was shocked, and everyone present was stunned!

Deng Qibin's face changed first, and then the villain complained first, and said in a loud voice: "Well, you Qin Guogong, could it be that if you can't buy it by force, you will falsely accuse your good as a thief, so that you can take the opportunity to seize the treasure?"

"Of course I won't accuse good people of being robbers. However, as the Duke of Qin in the Tang Dynasty and the order of Chang'an, it is my job to arrest thieves and thieves. Let's not speak secretly, these glazed vessels are really Is this yours?"

"Can it be fake? You keep saying that there is something wrong with the origin of these glass vessels, but what evidence do you have?"

"I don't have any evidence, but it can be inferred based on common sense. You also said just now that the trade route between Persia and the Eastern Roman Empire was cut off. Why does no one else have glass, but you alone?"

"It's too unreasonable for you to be so suspicious. Why do I have to throw and grab the rare glass in my hand, and it can't be my own?"

"Of course you can have things that other people don't have. However, no one else has such a precious glass vessel. You alone have it. What does this mean? It means that your family is rich. I wonder why such a rich person even has two hundred I can’t get the money for the ship fare, so I have to get the glass to pay for it?”

"Uh... Actually, the thing is like this..."

Just as Deng Qibin was about to explain, Guo Ye waved his hand to stop him from continuing.

Then, Guo Ye said: "Even if you can explain the problem of money, why don't you bring any servants with you on board? Even if you don't bring any servants, you must have companions, right? Alone, with a huge amount of wealth, boarding A merchant ship of unknown origin. But normal people?"

Deng Qibin said: "Mr. Qin, you have misunderstood! In fact, I can explain all your questions."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"I did business in Persia from the Eastern Roman Empire. Later, I accidentally offended a Persian dignitary and was chased and killed by that person. In desperation, I had no choice but to take the most valuable thing and escape."

He sighed and continued: "Now my way back to my hometown is cut off, Persia can't stay, and Dashi is the enemy of my motherland. Tell me, where else can I go if I don't go to Datang?"

Guo Ye nodded and said, "That's right, what you said is reasonable. I really can't fault your words. However, I think there is a reason, which is more reasonable than what you said just now."

"What reason?"

"The reason is that the origin of these glazed vessels is not glorious. After you got these glazed vessels, you had nowhere to settle in Persia, so you had no choice but to flee to our Tang merchant ship."

"It's all your guesswork! Both of us insist on our own opinions. Could it be that Qin Guogong convicted me based on this? Could it be that under Tian Khan's rule, the judge judged the case based on guesswork?"

Guo Ye said: "You and I know exactly what is going on. I will not argue with you. In our Tang Dynasty, your deeds were so secretive. I arrested you and tortured you. Tian Khan learned that he couldn't say that I did something wrong."

"You..." Now Deng Qibin was really scared.

He said: "Qin Guogong, I heard that your family property is at least tens of millions of guan. You don't have to do such a great job for [-] guan, right?"

Chapter 1765 Convince People With Virtue

Guo Ye said: "Don't worry, I won't do that. What I said just now is just telling you a possibility. I, Guo Ye, have always convinced people with virtue."

"It's good to convince people with virtue! It's good to convince people with virtue!" Deng Qibin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"As a matter of fact, we do want your glassware, but we don't have to buy it. Can you believe that?"

"I believe it! Of course I believe it." Although he said he believed it, seeing Deng Qibin's expression, it was obvious that his words were insincere.

Guo Ye said: "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. If you don't show something real, you won't be convinced if you think about it. How about this, let me show you something."

"what?"

"It is a real treasure. You regard these glass vessels as treasures, but in my Tang Dynasty, they are nothing. I will show you the real treasures of our Tang Dynasty later."

The so-called real treasure, of course, refers to the wishful cup.This glass, which is very common in modern society, is really useful after it came to Datang.

It was first used by monk Tianfu to pretend to be a ghost, and later used by Guo Ye to fool the five great gentry.It's good now, and it's being used to frighten Deng Yangren again.

After a little effort, Sun Zishan took the wishful cup.

Guo Ye put the wooden box containing the Ruyi cup on the table, and said, "Mr. Qibin, please take a look, how do our Tang treasures compare with your glassware?"

Deng Qibin said: "You should open this by yourself, what should I do if I knocked your treasure?"

"You're really careful, all right."

Guo Ye opened the wooden box and said, "Mr. Qibin, please take a look!"

The wishful cup reappeared in the sky and shocked the audience again!

Chai Lingwen and Liang Ershao had never seen the Ruyi Cup before, so they were quite shocked because of their knowledge and experience.

Chai Lingwen said: "What kind of treasure is this, why is it so crystal clear?"

Liang Ershao said: "It's fine if the light is crystal clear. The most important thing is that it doesn't contain any impurities. Guo Ye, you still have such a good thing, why didn't you take it out sooner?"

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Deng Qibin has not blinked since the wishful cup appeared, and held the wishful cup firmly, saying: "Could this be a thing left by God? It's so delicate! It's so perfect!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of birdsong, which Guo Ye could not understand.Judging from his tone, it was probably a compliment.

After a long time, Deng Qibin slowly calmed down from his excitement, and said, "Qin Guogong, can I pick it up and have a look at it?"

Chai Lingwen sneered: "Just now you didn't dare to open the wooden box yourself, why do you want to pick it up now? Don't you worry about bumping it or even falling it now?"

Deng Qibin said: "One moment, another moment, how can it be the same?"

"Then tell me, why is it different?"

"Uh……"

Guo Ye said: "Let me explain it for him. This Deng Yang judges the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Just now he was afraid that we would take the opportunity to blackmail him!"

Deng Qibin smiled awkwardly: "I am alone, traveling across the ocean. I have to be careful, and I hope you will forgive me!"

Guo Ye said: "As I said, what I like most is to convince people with virtue. Mr. Qibin, please take a look."

"Thank you Qin Guogong for fulfilling it."

Deng Qibin picked up the wishful cup, looked at it carefully, and admired it while looking at it.After a long time, he put down the wishful cup and said, "Dare to ask Lord Qin, what is the name of this thing?"

"Wishful Cup."

"Ruyi cup? Good name. Do you know if it is a man-made thing, or a masterpiece of nature, and then carved by man?"
