Gao Gong read the letter carefully and his doubts about Shao Fang disappeared.
He smiled and was about to say something to win people's hearts, but suddenly he heard a commotion outside the door. He saw his eldest brother wearing a golden armor and a silver helmet, with bristled beard and hair, eyes like torches, and holding a long iron handle. He wielded his sword and strode in with his head held high.
"Aha, you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time!" Gao Jie pointed his halberd at Shao Fang and said in a loud voice: "How do I compare to Lianpo?"
"The country has such a great man, how can the Japanese pirates dare to invade again?" Shao Fang hurriedly stood up and saluted.
Gao Jie also laughed loudly and said: "I'm still here. If any Japanese slave dares to commit an offense, this sword will not tolerate it!"
¡°As he said that, the old man made a big sword.
But he heard a bang and accidentally broke a large flowerpot with camellias planted nearby.
"Okay! This is the fate of the Japanese slaves!" Shao Fang praised.
Gao Gong was dumbfounded. He thought that Shao Fang's flattering ability was amazing. He could even catch such a joke.
This hero¡¯s skills may be as good as that of Mao Sui¡¯s sharp tongue.
He then stood up, cupped his hands to his eldest brother in a seasoned manner and said, "The enemy invaders have retreated. Please take a rest, Zhongcheng."
"Okay, let's go to this hospital. Please pay attention to cleaning up the battlefield!" Gao Jie then turned around and left with a big sword in his hand. "After we return to camp, let's talk about merit and reward!"
After finally coaxing his eldest brother out, Gao Gong breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Shao Fang in a completely 'not Gao Gong' sad tone:
"It's no coincidence that my eldest brother fell in love with you. When he was young, he was tall and burly, with a long beard. He was very moral and chivalrous, and he was proud of it. When he was a child, because of his noble father, some people called him 'gongzi', but he scolded him. He scolded: 'Why do you call me Young Master? I'm not that kind of second-generation ancestor!'"
"Yes, people in Jiangnan's Jianghu regard Lao Zhongcheng as their idol." Shao Fang said in awe.
"My brother has been passionate about the art of war and practicing martial arts since he was a child. When he got older, he worked hard and vowed to 'fight for ten thousand enemies to pass the exam.' However, he was too upright and arrogant, and he dared to say and do things. My brother was the first to point out that Nanjing The armies of all the guards have all turned into rubbish like the Jingkang Imperial Army of the former Song Dynasty. He was also the first general to recruit northern soldiers to fight against the Japanese."
"In the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, telling the truth will be hated by others, and if you dare to serve the world, you must first pay the price. As a result, the anti-Japanese victory was won, and when merit was awarded, his name was not on the credit book." Gao Gong As he spoke, Cang Sheng sighed and said:
"This shows that he is no longer tolerated by the officialdom, and he was later promoted and secretly transferred out of Nanjing. But those people still did not let him go. The censor of Nanjing seized on the military discipline issues of the Northern Army, and impeachment has been carried out in Shaanxi. The official's brother allowed his subordinates to harass the place, which made him end up disbanded and returned to his field, where he was unhappy. The eldest brother couldn't swallow that, and that's why he became so crazy. "
"Zhongcheng is really too strong" Shao Daxia couldn't help but sigh.
"Perhaps, this is the fate of my Gao family. My father and ancestors all returned home sadly for the same reason and died in depression." Gao's eyes were slightly moist, which touched his heart:
"Why is it so difficult to look up to someone without guilt in the Ming Dynasty? Isn't there room for a few officials who dare to tell the truth and serve in their duties?"
"Have you ever thought about making a change, then?" Shao Fang asked softly.
"Change?" Gao Gong stroked his beard and said with eyes like bells: "My Gao family has served four generations of kings, and they all have the same style. How do you want me to change? Do you want to deny my ancestors and me? Father, my brother? They are not afraid. I, Gao Suqing, have no children, so I have nothing to be afraid of! Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Shao Fang felt a surge of blood and nodded heavily. As he spoke, he pushed the gold mountain, poured down the jade pillar, and knelt down on one knee: "This is the pride and persistence of the Gao family in Xinzheng! Although I am not talented, I am willing to work for you. , even if you die, you will have no regrets!¡±
"Okay, I'm a comrade!" Gao Gong laughed and helped Shao Fang up and said, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"Follow your orders!" Shao Fang hurriedly laid out his plan of action. The most important thing is to take the route inside the palace.
"One is the eunuch Chen Hong, who has a relationship with Xu Butang Chen Hong is in charge of the imperial eunuch, and his purchases in Jiangnan will inevitably cause trouble to the Nanjing Ministry of Industry. I plan to go to Beijing to get acquainted with Chen Hong and invite him Help me to advise the emperor."
"Then there are Qinghe Bo Li Wei and his son. Although I have never known each other, I heard that they come from a small family and are greedy for money. It should not be difficult to win. Then I will try to ask them to persuade Empress Li. Say something for Mr. Ge."
Gao Gong nodded frequently and said, "The relationship between Teng Xiang and me is not good to begin with.??, if Chen Hong can also speak for me, and with Empress Li's words, this matter will almost be done. "
Then he finally relented and said: "Thanks to the hero for taking the trouble about Mr. Gao."
"Okay!" Shao Fang shouted excitedly after hearing this: "Xin Zhenggong made a decisive decision immediately, and he is really heroic! This alone is much better than Xu Huating!"
"Oh?" Gao Gong's eyes flashed when he heard this: "What's wrong with Yuan Fu?"
Shao Fang knew that he had made a mistake, but he had top-notch rescue ability, so he immediately said with emotion: "The situation was so good back then, but he was indecisive and tried to be perfect. As a result, he ended up in today's situation. It should be a perfect match for the high minister!"
Gao Gong was indeed deceived, he chuckled and said: "He overestimated himself, underestimated Your Majesty, and underestimated my position in His Majesty's heart. That's why he made mistakes again and again, and finally became a big hatred."
¡°The Prime Minister is fine, I¡¯ll go to Beijing to lobby for you right away!¡± Shao Fang clasped his fists and was about to leave.
"Hey, don't worry at this moment. You and I hit it off right away. We spent a few days in Zhuangzi. It's not too late for us to have a good chat before leaving." Gao Gong, however, held him back, as if he couldn't let go of the guest who came to the door so easily.
"Then it's better to be respectful than obey orders." Shao Fang was flattered, and increasingly felt that Mr. Gao Ge was a thousand times better than Mr. Xu Ge.
As everyone knows, Gao Gong just needs some time and asks the people from Jinyiwei to help check his background. See if this person is a spy sent by a political enemy to lure you into the trap.
One thing he didn¡¯t tell Shao Fang was that the Gao family always looked rough and arrogant, but in fact they were as careful as hair.

Near the Dragon King Temple in Kunshan, there is a large cemetery.
Zhao Shouzheng, led by He Wenwei, walked into the cemetery and saw Xiong Dianshi in white clothes from a distance, kneeling in front of a tomb.
There are offerings in front of the grave, but there are no inscriptions on the tombstone.
"This is the tomb he built for his wife and children." He Wenwei sighed in a sad tone: "It was also the day of the completion ceremony for Xiaguan. After repeated questioning, he found out that when Xiong Dianshi's family members came to join him from their hometown in Guangdong, they were The Wusong River burst its embankment. As a result, his wife and three children were all washed away by the flood, and none of them were recovered."
"Hey" Mr. Zhao burst into tears when he heard this, and said with red eyes: "He is also a miserable person."
