Hope for luck

Chapter 140

After hearing Gao Pan's very dissatisfied words, the brown-robed old man realized that he seemed to have gone too far. He got up quickly and said shamelessly:
"Mr. Gao, please stop. The old man offended me. I'm here to accompany you. Please don't rush to leave. The old man still wants to talk to Mr. Gao!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Pan frowned and turned around, saying politely:

"Since that's the case, I hope that the old man will not ask these offensive things again. The boy is very willing to talk to you!"

This old man's Nine Luck alone is enough to make Gao Pan look sideways. If he really wants to make friends with Gao Pan, Gao Pan will naturally be willing.

Seeing this, the old man in brown robe quickly shook his head, saying that he had just made a slip of the tongue, and let Gao Panmo take it to heart, and asked someone to bring another hot tea, and asked Gao Pan to sit down again.

Seeing that he was suddenly so courteous and enthusiastic, Gao Pan was also a little surprised. From the initial curiosity, to the righteous indignation later, to the current politeness and enthusiasm, Gao Pan was a little uncertain about the mind of the brown-robed old man.

"Haven't you asked me about my husband's name?"

After sitting down, Gao Pan asked the name of the old man in brown robe.

"My surname is Dong, my name is Pingzhang, and my name is Bohan!"

The old man in the brown robe also said his name and name. After Gao Pan heard it, he kept it in his heart, thinking of going back and asking Yang Mingchun to find out where he came from.

While Dong Pingzhang was talking, he also looked at Gao Pan with cloudy and kind eyes. After seeing that Gao Pan was only slightly polite, he had no other expressions.

I thought in my heart that Gao Pan didn't know his identity, but that's fine, don't involve too much.

"It turns out to be Mr. Dong. Although I don't know your identity, I can see that you are a big man when you look at your white crane in the cloud and your open-minded demeanor. It's rare for you to meet Gao Pan. It's a great honor to meet you!"

However, Gao Pan didn't care what his background was, and he said a lot of good things first, at least he could have a good impression in his heart.

Dong Pingzhang heard the words, stroked his long beard, waved his hand and said:
"Young Master Gao is absurd. This old man is nothing more than a wild crane. How can you say so well? Speaking of it, this old man was lucky enough to meet your father!"

Gao Pan was shocked when he heard this, and after hesitating for a while, he asked quickly:
"Mr. Dong, can you tell me in detail, where did you meet my parents? What year and month?"

Dong Pingzhang seemed to have expected that Gao Pan would be so excited, and quickly told a story with a smile.

That was 15 years ago. Emperor Sejong, the fourth emperor of the Yu Dynasty, had just passed away, and Emperor Tianfeng had just ascended the throne.

In his hometown in Yizhou, Dong Pingzhang met Gao Qiluo and his wife who came to Yizhou to play. At that time, they were very young, and they were deeply affectionate and affectionate.

"...Back then, your father had talked with this old man for a long time. Although he didn't tell me your name, but as soon as he saw you coming in, this old man was sure that the couple he met back then were your father Lingtang!"

After Gao Pan heard this, he always felt a little weird. If that was all, he could be sure that he had met Gao Pan's parents?
It was 15 years ago, a young couple I met by chance, do you still remember?

This reason is a bit far-fetched, there must be some deeper reason!

Thinking of this, Gao Pan quickly said:

"That's it. I wonder why you always ask me how my parents died. To be honest, I'm not afraid of your jokes. When my parents passed away, I was still young. In addition, I used to be ignorant and lived my life. Only recently When I wake up, I can't remember many things clearly!"

Dong Pingzhang frowned slightly when he heard the words, and then a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he sighed softly:
"The world is impermanent, misfortune and good fortune depend on each other. After Mr. Gao wakes up this time, he will surely become the pillar of the country like Heming Jiugao!"

Gao Pan blushed when he heard this, he didn't have such a big ambition, he just lived from his heart.

He hurriedly replied modestly, the mutual flattery between the two also made Gao Pan a little bit dumbfounded, it seemed a bit hypocritical, but this is also a way of etiquette.

Since Dong Pingzhang didn't want to talk about the details of the year, Gao Pan didn't ask any further. He knew that if Dong Pingzhang wanted to tell him, he should tell him now. If he asked, it would only make the scene very stiff.

Furthermore, although he attaches great importance to his parents in this life, he doesn't really care about their past. Living his own life right now is the most important thing.

However, when Gao Pan was reminded by Dong Pingzhang, he thought, after returning, he had to ask Lu Rong carefully, how did his parents die in this life?
"The affairs of the Ministry of Officials have always been decided by the Chief Assistant of the Assistant Government Pavilion. Without his nod, the little friendship of your uncle may not be of much use!"

Dong Pingzhang suddenly talked about the matter in the court, which made Gao Pan hesitate for a while, then he understood this sentence, and said in surprise:
"You mean, Lord Shoufu did it on purpose? Selling a favor to the Gao family? Why did he do this?"

After hearing this, Dong Pingzhang's muddy eyes instantly became clear, and he stared straight at Gao Pan, as if he wanted to see through Gao Pan's heart.

Seeing Gao Pan walking uncomfortably, Dong Pingzhang recovered his cloudy eyes and sighed:
"Young master Gao is really enlightened. You can think of this level just by saying a little thing. It really makes me feel ashamed!"

Gao Pan was stunned when he heard the words, and then he became a little embarrassed, not knowing how to answer the words.

"The former Chief Assistant Liao Jie was criticized by others, and now he has retired and returned to his hometown. If this matter is brought up by the censor, he will not even think about spending his days at home!"

Dong Pingzhang ignored Gao Pan's expression and continued to speak calmly.

When Gao Pan heard this, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, and then he realized that he seemed to be thinking too simply.

"Liao Jie has been the chief assistant for ten years, and he is now the emperor's important minister. Now, the emperor sees that he has worked hard for the court for many years. It is the best result to allow him to go home to take care of his life!"

Just listen to Dong Pingzhang continuing to talk, as if he was conveying some information to Gao Pan.

When Gao Pan heard the words, his face turned pale in an instant. After a while, he got up quickly and gave Dong Pingzhang a big gift:
"Thank you, Mr. Dong, for letting me know. If it weren't for this, the kid would be so self-righteous that he would have stepped into the abyss!"

When Dong Pingzhang saw this, a glint of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, but in his own heart, he nodded slightly.

"If you want your uncle, who is a member of the Ministry of War, to be punished to a certain extent, you don't need to tell the censor about it, you just need to spread the matter. Presumably other honorable families, It is absolutely envious, and it is quite predictable to make a fuss in front of the emperor, and in this way, without anyone noticing, no one would guess that it was you who spread the news behind your back!"

Dong Pingzhang waved his hand and said quite grandly.

This made Gao Pan's eyes widen after hearing this, and he stared at Dong Pingzhang with horror in his heart. After hearing Dong Pingzhang's words, he realized how inconsiderate he was.
