Hope for luck

Chapter 178
When Dong Pingzhang asked about his plans, Gao Pan suddenly became nervous and didn't know how to reply.

"If you don't think about it, the old man can do something for you. It just so happens that you have already become an official. It is normal for you to be transferred to another place. However, it depends on yourself. Do you want to stay in Beijing or go abroad?"

Dong Pingzhang was talking to Gao Pan in an unquestionable tone.

Gao Pan was taken aback for a moment when he heard the words, then looked at Dong Pingzhang solemnly and said:
"Thank you for your care, Mr. Ge, but the lower officials think that Mr. Ge should not think about the future of the lower officials!"

Speaking of official matters, Gao Pan called Dong Pingzhang the elder of the pavilion and called himself a subordinate official. This made Dong Pingzhang raise his eyebrows, glanced at Gao Pan, shook his head, and scolded with a smile:

"Stinky boy, if the old man didn't think that you are not bad, why would you ask such a question, why don't you get cheap and act like a good boy!"

After Gao Pan listened, his expression remained unchanged, he held a salute, and replied seriously:
"The boy naturally understands, but Mr. Dong, you should understand that the principle of great kindness is like hatred. The boy and you only meet for a few times, but you take care of the boy over and over again, which makes the boy really uneasy. !"

This remark made Dong Pingzhang a little stunned. Looking at the serious and respectful Gao Pan, Dong Pingzhang sighed and said:

"I don't know if I should praise you for being smart or smart, or reprimand you for being philistine and snobbish. If this old man is not the chief minister of the auxiliary government cabinet, would you still ask this question?"

Gao Pan listened, and immediately took the words and said firmly: "Yes!"

Seeing this, Dong Pingzhang was a little stunned again, his face changed slightly, and he became a little ashamed. After a while, he whispered:
"If you really want an answer, then the old man will tell you. It is because I feel guilty about your parents. I don't want to tell you the specific reason. If one day, you can reach the same height as the old man, I can tell you, otherwise, now that I know the reason, it will only increase my troubles!"

Dong Pingzhang's answer made Gao Pan very happy. He actually didn't care about how guilty Dong Pingzhang felt towards his first parents. What he cared about was Dong Pingzhang's current attitude.

In fact, Gao Pan is still very lonely in his heart. He doesn't like to owe too much favor, especially Dong Pingzhang. Maybe there will be complaints.

From the matter of Du Xiangwan to the current crisis of the Shen family, Gao Pan may have indirectly used Dong Pingzhang's influence to do something.

At this moment, after hearing Dong Pingzhang's explanation in person, Gao Pan was relieved. According to Dong Pingzhang's meaning, that is, it was not Gao Pan who owed him, but Dong Pingzhang intended to help him!
"Thank you, Mr. Ge, for reminding me. I am not an incompetent villain. I need to rely on Mr. Ge for everything. As for my current future, I have already planned, so I don't need to worry about this!"

Gao Pan replied respectfully again.

Seeing this, Dong Pingzhang nodded slightly and said no more.

From the time he met Gao Pan to this moment, Dong Pingzhang has been very impressed with Gao Pan. The young man in front of him, who is not yet a weak crown, has a calm and complicated way of acting that is different from his peers.

When he knew that Gao Pan was going to expose Gao Qiyuan's crimes to the court, Dong Pingzhang was very surprised.

Gao Qiyuan was his uncle, and he could be regarded as his elder, but when Gao Pan wanted to do this, he was relentless, with such determination, it could be said that he was decisive and never procrastinating.

Even Dong Pingzhang himself felt that he could not see through Gao Pan, and later on about Du Xiangwan, Gao Pan came up with the idea of ​​letting people expose Du Xiangwan's background. shock.

……

The outer court of the imperial palace is a courtyard close to the harem, where the government office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is located.

Because it belongs to the inner court organization, but needs to go out to buy, the main office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not located in the harem, but at the intersection of the inner court and the inner court.

On the other side of the House of Internal Affairs is the main hall of the Fuzheng Pavilion. In addition, the government office of the Outer Court in the Imperial Palace also has the capitals of the Five Armies.

At this moment, Wang Youzhong, the Director General of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, seemed very irritable at the moment, and was anxiously waiting for something in the office of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After a while, a young eunuch dressed as a servant came in, bowed his waist and said:

"Elder-in-law, I've asked. People in Jinyi Palace said that Concubine Li is very angry and is about to tell Lord Long Live about it!"

After Wang Youzhong heard this, his already fair face became even paler. He patted the table heavily, and said urgently:

"If Lord Long Live knows that I'm not doing well, I'm afraid he will get angry and ask me to guard the imperial tomb, no... Hurry up, go and urge the Shen family, you can't wait any longer, you can only give them three days, no , just change!"

"What substitution?!"

At this moment, another person came in from outside the house, also a eunuch dressed as a white servant, but he was not young, probably in his 50s.

When Wang Youzhong saw it, his face changed drastically again, and then he immediately bowed and said:
"Director Lu, why are you here?"

The eunuch who just came in was called Director Lu by Wang Youzhong, so it seems that he is the Director-General?
Director Lu came to a top chair and sat down unhurriedly, looked at Wang Youzhong and asked:
"Mr. Wang, just after our family came in, I heard you lose your temper. It belongs to the Long Live Lord. You also vaguely heard the word Shen's family. What's going on? Tell the truth, otherwise, the manager will follow the rules. Work done!"

Hearing this, Wang Youzhong was already sweating on his forehead, and the peculiar smell on his body seemed to be getting heavier.

"Returning to you, it's just a small spoken word for a while, it's not a big deal..."

Seeing Director Lu's disbelief, Wang Youzhong had no choice but to tell the whole story:
"Concubine Li said a few days ago that she needed a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus, so she appointed the Shen family to make an offering, but it took several days, and the Shen family didn't give an explanation, so... so, this little one Angry!"

"Assholes, sweet-scented osmanthus has always been a rule in the palace. When can it be said that you can buy it? Both, it's already winter, where can I find sweet-scented osmanthus? What a bunch of idiots!"

Manager Lu stared wide-eyed and reprimanded loudly.

Wang Youzhong was both horrified and puzzled by these words, so he quickly asked for instructions:
"Boss, but Concubine Li needs it, let's..."

"Hmph, when did the Ministry of Internal Affairs come under the jurisdiction of the harem? If it doesn't exist, then it doesn't. Why bother to flatter you? Hmm?"

Director Lu seems to have a very temper. After saying this, King Wang Youzhong didn't know how to express his feelings at the moment.

Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not under the jurisdiction of the harem, the role of the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs is to serve the royal family and the harem. Director Lu's words made Wang Youzhong feel a little embarrassed and puzzled.
