Qi Yu was very sure that he had never seen the child in front of him before.
Since we don't know each other, how can we have any personal grudges?
It doesn’t make sense!
Thinking of this, Qi Yu smiled and asked, "Little friend, I wonder where Governor Qi offended you, causing you to hate him so much?"
Guo Chunhai suddenly blushed and said with a hint of annoyance: "Senior brother, do you know that that guy gave me this nickname?"
What what?
Did I give you your name?
Suddenly!
Qi Yu's mind flashed, and an old incident came to mind.
I still remember that when I just took office as the governor of Qiongzhou, I tried a strange case full of gossip.
The case was that three old men, Gao, Sun and Chen, visited the same prostitute in the same place at the same time. The three of them cheered and worked together to stage a physical relay race.
Who would have thought that the prostitute would become pregnant and give birth to a healthy baby boy. The three families who finally got a son were so happy that they burst into tears, and they all wanted to keep the child for themselves. However, he went to court because he could not tell who was the biological father.
When judging the penalty, I cleverly took the head of the character 'Gao', the son of the character 'Sun' and the ear of the character 'Chen', and finally formed a surname of 'Guo' that contains elements of the three people's surnames. In addition, the two characters "chunhai" also have special meanings. When broken down into two characters, it can be read as "three people a day, each person has a little bit." '
Is it possible to say that the child in front of me is that child?
It looks like it’s probably true!
After figuring out his background, Qi Yu couldn't help but chuckle to himself: Ape excrement always hit him on the head inadvertently, and he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
Guo Chunhai was surprised when he saw his eyes were blurred and he seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Qi Yu gradually came to his senses, and after a dry cough, he returned to normal, seemingly unaware of anything.
Seeing this, Guo Chunhai had no choice but to give a rough explanation of the origin of his name to clear up any doubts.
"In the past, I didn't realize there was anything wrong with this name. Later, as I read more and more, I gradually realized the hidden meaning. Alas, the truth is so offensive and laughable!"
"Indecent? Uh..."
Qi Yu laughed and said with a smile: "My little friend has read poetry and books, don't you hear the truth that the vulgar is the elegance, the simple is the true? Think of Zhang Gou'er, the first general of Southern Qi. Although his name is cheap, he has great ability. He is very powerful, and the world did not look down upon him because of his inelegant name. On the contrary, his famous name has lasted for a long time, and he is still praised by the world today. You should not be entangled in the elegance and vulgarity of his name! "
"Zhang Gou'er...yes, his name is even more despicable than mine."
"hehe……"
After a lot of counseling, Guo Chunhai finally let go of his entanglements and stopped talking about his name.
When the mood gets better, there will naturally be more topics to talk about.
Under Qi Yu's deliberate instigation and guidance, Guo Chunhai completely put aside his grudge and began to describe his motives for printing tabloids and what happened.
In terms of motivation, there are two main reasons.
First, he had a desire for revenge because he was dissatisfied with Qi Yu. Since he could grab his pigtails, he naturally had to criticize him. Otherwise, how could he resolve the hatred in his heart?
Second, he felt that the demolished households were really pitiful. He stood up decisively and bravely in accordance with the sage's instructions. While raising his voice, he also criticized the current ills.
Qi Yu said nothing, just listened quietly.
He carefully discovered that although this child was a little conceited, he had a sincere enthusiasm that even adults could not match, which was commendable.
As for what happened, there are some little stories in it.
According to Guo Chunhai, after the demolition incident occurred, he was angry and directly approached the messengers of Qiongzhou Daily, asking them to write an article and publicly report the matter.
However, the messengers were all afraid of offending the officials, and no one dared to nod in agreement. In fact, not only them, but also the traditional literati were silent. No one dared to write a word or say a word.
As a last resort, this Guo prodigy personally found the editor-in-chief Xiong Da, and wanted to use an anonymous moral article to denounce Mr. Qi's negligence.
Upon hearing this, Xiong Da flatly refused without even thinking about it.
If I dare to publish an article that denounces Mr. Qi, do I not want to be fooled?
Xiong grinded his teeth. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had to turn down the huge reward.
In the end, Guo Chunhai struggled to find a feasible way to express his demands.
Later, a clever servant reminded him that why not spend money to hire private engraving artists to print tabloids and publish them?
What a great idea!
He was from a wealthy family and was not short of money. With the heavy reward, he was really able to facilitate it.
Afterwards, his grandson, Gao, Chen and third father were all frightened to death. They hurriedly wiped their son's butt and lied, trying their best to cover up the matter.
His father surnamed Chen immediately started to shift the blame and directly spread rumors that this tabloid was published privately by Qiongzhou Daily and had nothing to do with anyone else, and so on.
Unexpectedly, the matter failed to be covered up in the end, and the attentive Luo Yuan followed the clues to find out what happened.
This is roughly what happened.
After listening, Qi Yu couldn't help but secretly lamented: Although the messengers and literati have a lot of integrity, their courage is limited to criticizing ordinary people. Once they rise to the level of officials, they will give in.
On the contrary, this newly born calf is even more courageous and truly unafraid of the power of a tiger.
give a like!
Qi Yu smiled happily and said with deep meaning: "Let's do this. If you can get the status of a student in the imperial examination next year, then I will ask Qiongzhou Daily to open a column for you to 'point out the current abuses'. By then, what do you want to write? Just write whatever you want, and you can scold whoever you want, and I can guarantee that no one can stop you."
Since the new imperial examination policy officially abolished the age limit, in theory, Guo Chunhai could obtain the status of a scholar through the child examination and the academy examination.
Of course, the premise is that he must have the real talent and practical knowledge to overcome all obstacles, otherwise, everything is nonsense.
Guo Chunhai pursed his lips when he heard this, and said with a strange look on his face: "Brother, who are you, and where do you get this kind of power?"
Qi Yu stroked his beard and smiled, and replied: "To tell you the truth, it's just Qi Yu!"
"what are you?"
"Not bad! Is it really me?"
Guo Chunhai suddenly realized, and after looking at him for a few times, he asked: "I said, you are not angry at all when I scold you like that?"
"Angry? What's there to be angry about?" Qi Yu patted his small shoulder and said with encouragement: "You stand up for the people and speak out. It's not too late for me to thank you, so how can I be angry with you? ?”
Guo Chunhai's anger subsided after hearing this, and he thought to himself: This person doesn't seem to be as annoying as he imagined. Although he is a little confused, he can still distinguish right from wrong.
This is what he thought in his heart, but he still refused to admit defeat and said: "You can correct your oversight, and you can correct it if you know it, but you can make amends for your blasphemy of my name."
What? Do you want me to apologize?
Qi Yu chuckled and took the initiative to walk up the steps and said, "Otherwise, I will follow the meaning in your article and consider 'cutting one's hair in place of one's head' as self-punishment. What do you think?"
"Oh? Is this true?"
"It's a joke. I am a high-ranking official in the border area. How can I break my word if I make a fool of myself with my words?"
"Well, since you took the initiative to admit your mistake, I'll let you go."
"Thank you Guo Xiaoyou Haihan."
Guo Chunhai chuckled when he heard this, like a rooster that had won a fight, not to mention how happy he was.
