Hope for luck

Chapter 151
After realizing the seriousness of the situation, Gao Pan planned to let Gao Qiyuan know that he had caused trouble. If he went to drink Gao Qiyuan's explanation right now, it might backfire.

After thinking about it, Gao Pan comforted Peng Ming first, then left the east courtyard without eating breakfast, and headed towards the west courtyard.

This is the courtyard where Gao Qibai lived. Early in the morning, the courtyard was very quiet. Only when he reached the main courtyard did the maid see Gao Pan coming, and quickly went to wake Gao Qibai up.

Only then did Gao Pan realize that Gao Qibai hadn't woken up yet, and waited in the living room for a while before he saw Gao Qibai come out.

"Why did you come to me early in the morning? But what happened?"

Gao Qibai seemed a little dissatisfied in his words, maybe he was a little annoyed because his dream was disturbed.

This made Gao Pan subconsciously think that Gao Qibai is too lazy to work, and the sky is already bright, and he hasn't gotten up to study in the morning, so it's no wonder he failed to pass the Jinshi exam for so long.

Although he had some doubts in his heart, he said seriously:

"I disturbed my fourth uncle's dream. It is because my nephew encountered a big incident yesterday and felt that something was wrong, so I came here to tell my fourth uncle!"

Gao Qibai raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and quickly asked him what happened.

Gao Pan told the story of being framed by others. On the way here, Gao Pan already understood that if he didn't tell the truth, it would be difficult for Gao Qibai to understand. Naturally, it also included the suppression of the Du family in Dantang County. .

After Gao Qibai heard this, he was a little sullen:
"Why didn't you send someone to the mansion last night to spread the word, but how dare a small household doctor do this? Do you really think the Gao family is a soft persimmon?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan felt a little moved in his heart, but Gao Qibai's attitude didn't explain anything, the Gao family's attitude depended on Mrs. Gao or Gao Qiyuan.

Therefore, Gao Qibai's sullenness made Gao Pan feel a little disapproved, but he spoke out about the current calamity of Gao's family:

"Fourth uncle, don't underestimate this person. It is probably due to his nephew being called back by the eldest uncle. Moreover, he seems to know that it is against the regulations for my second brother and I to go to the Pill Hall. After being stabbed, the emperor blamed him, and the Gao family might have to bow their heads and confess!"

After hearing this, Gao Qibai opened his mouth wide and was speechless. After a while, his face became very serious:

"Brother told me about this, he said, Mr. Shoufu sold our family's face, so that you and Yuan brother can go to be magistrates, no one will dare to question it!"

Hearing this, Gao Pan was startled. Sure enough, as Dong Pingzhang said, Gao Qiyuan was so clever that he was able to let the first assistant speak for him?
Previously, Gao Panben thought that it was good for Gao Qiyuan to get acquainted with the middle-level officials of the Ministry of Officials. For important officials such as the Minister of the Ministry, Gao Qiyuan would not have such a face to make them nod.

But I didn't expect that my own structure was too small. After all, the Gao family was a noble family, and maybe I could show my face in front of the emperor, and even get the nod from the chief minister of the auxiliary government cabinet. No wonder this matter seemed so strange, but it didn't People come up with something to say.

"It's different now. The assistant Liao Jie has already retired and returned home. If the second master of the Du family really wants to use this matter to participate in the book, it may cause major troubles. The selection of scholars and official positions has always been closely watched by scholars all over the world." I am afraid that I will commit the crime of public anger!"

Gao Pan said with a sigh.

Gao Qibai naturally understood what Gao Pan said, and asked in surprise:
"How did you know that the Chief Assistant has left his post?"

Gao Pan heard the words, looked at him, and said calmly:
"Fourth uncle studied hard behind closed doors, but he didn't know that the outside world has changed drastically. The news has already spread. That Liao Jie left the capital yesterday. It's not a secret!"

Hearing this, Gao Qibai stood up, walked back and forth in the room, then looked at Gao Pan solemnly and said:

"You did the right thing. I will go to see my elder brother right away and tell him the whole story. You should also be prepared. He may summon you for questioning at any time!"

At this moment, Gao Qibo felt a little restless in his heart. Firstly, Gao Pan said something, which is not a big deal, but if the emperor thinks that the Gao family has violated the court rules, it will be a big trouble.

Secondly, it is because Gao Pan and Gao Qiyuan seem to have become a fire and water situation. From the incident of Peng Lanshu and Peng Ming, it can be seen that the grievances between Dafang and Wufang are accumulating, which is not a good thing ah!

When Gao Pan heard the words, he bowed calmly, respectfully agreed, and walked out of the Xikua courtyard.

Just about to enter the east courtyard, Lu Rong said with a bitter face:
"Master, I went to Neifangtang, but my wife said that the monthly money and silver have been released long ago, and I will go to collect it next month. She also said that she will prepare the monthly regulations for the third lady and the seventh young master, and we don't need them." Go get it, besides, Lao Yang has not passed her assessment, so he cannot be regarded as a servant of the Gao family, so he cannot give Yueyin!"

When Gao Pan heard this, his calm heart suddenly became angry.

Before that, he deliberately went to Neifangtang to test Mrs. Ren's attitude, just to win back what originally belonged to the fifth room.

At that time, Gao Qiyuan had promised him that Mrs. Ren would deal with it fairly and run the family properly, so Gao Pan had been waiting for Mrs. Ren's move.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Gao Pan still suppressed the anger at this moment with his eyes narrowed.

Because the Gao family is facing a huge crisis from the outside right now, he doesn't want to make a fuss at this moment, after this matter is over, he can do it again.

From this point of view, in Gao Pan's heart, there has always been a bottom line, perhaps because his surname is Gao at the moment, right?
Then, Gao Pan nodded slightly, knowing the matter, and while walking towards the main courtyard, he asked Lu Rong about many things about his parents in this life, especially how they died.

When Gao Pan asked about this, Lu Rong showed a bit of sadness, and said softly:

"Master and Madam, they were the gods and couples that everyone in the capital envied back then. The Master became famous at a young age, and the Madam came from a family of poems and book hairpin tassels. Madam's father was the sacrificial wine of the Imperial College..."

Listening to Lu Rong's narration, Gao Pan's calm heart became uneasy again, especially when he knew that his grandfather was still the Imperial College Jijiu, he was quite surprised.

Hastily interrupted Lu Rong's words and asked:

"And what about my maternal grandfather? And mother without siblings?"

The reason why Gao Pan asked so anxiously was that there was no memory about this aspect in his predecessor's memory.

Moreover, the previous life was unsatisfactory in the mansion, if his grandfather was still alive, or had relatives such as uncles, the previous life would not have been so miserable.

After hearing Gao Pan's eager inquiry, Lu Rong showed a bit of sadness:
"Madam's natal family, not long after Madam passed away, was ordered by the court to confiscate the family and exterminate the family!"

When Gao Pan heard this, his face turned a little pale in an instant, and there was only one thought in his mind, which was why this happened?
