Hope for luck

Chapter 323
Baiheju.

Qin Zhangqiu poured wine for Gao Pan himself in a private room with a smile on his face. This time he was completely convinced by Gao Pan's tricks.

To be able to persuade King Lu to excuse him at the court ceremony!
Originally, his crime must be indispensable. After all, there is also the crime of negligence. This crime can be big or small.

What surprised him the most was that it was originally about impeaching him, but then someone suddenly appeared and impeached Prince Liang's mansion.

With the charge of Prince Liang's mansion leading the charge, the charge of negligence of the commander of the city guard naturally seemed insignificant.

In the end, the official was reinstated and fined three months' salary. Even if the matter was exposed, to Qin Zhangqiu, this punishment was like no punishment.

After all, the salary is not much, even if it is confiscated for one year, it is not much. It is already a big surprise for him to be able to keep his official life.

Therefore, after receiving Emperor Tianfeng's order, Qin Zhangqiu was ecstatic and knew that Gao Pan was actually mediating for him in all of this.

Otherwise, how could King Lu intercede for a small third-rank commander?He couldn't even enter the door of Prince Lu's Mansion.

Based on the previous knowledge, Qin Zhangqiu admired Gao Pan very much. Although he didn't understand that Gao Pan was just a captain of the Imperial City Division, he could persuade King Lu, but for him, he had already witnessed Gao Pan's strength and strength. powerful.

Therefore, after the joy, he immediately sent someone to invite Gao Pan to Baiheju for a banquet. He wanted to treat Gao Pan well, and he also knew that he didn't know Gao Pan's request, so he should listen to Gao Pan's request.

"Congratulations, Mr. Qin, the official has been restored to his original post, and I will toast you!"

Gao Pan was not surprised by the current result. After taking the wine glass, he toasted to celebrate.

Seeing this, Qin Zhangqiu was also not polite. After clinking glasses in the air, he raised his head and drank the first glass of wine, and said with a smile:

"I am completely convinced now. I stayed up all night last night, wondering if I could be relieved. I didn't expect to get such good news today. Mr. Xie, I would like to offer you a toast!"

As he said that, he filled Gao Pan's wine again and raised his head to drink another glass, looking very happy and heroic.

Gao Pan didn't hesitate, drank the glass of wine lightly, and then said with a smile:

"Master Qin is really big, but the boy is not very strong at drinking, how about this, let's talk while eating, and the boy just happens to have something to remind you, Master Qin!"

After hearing this, Qin Zhangqiu knew that Gao Pan was going to say his request, so he nodded quickly:
"Since that's the case, Mr. Xie is free to drink, but I can drink it freely. Tell me, I'll listen!"

Seeing this, Gao Pan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a strange arc.

"Master Qin, please look at this first!"

While talking, Gao Pan took out a confession with something written on it. After Qin Zhangqiu took it with a smile and looked at it, the smile on his face froze instantly, and then looked at Gao Pan with a face full of horror, and the corners of his mouth began to tremble:
"This...this is...Young Master Xie doesn't believe me?"

Gao Pan shook his head lightly:
"It's not that I can't trust you, Mr. Qin, it's just the boy's request, which involves the life and wealth of the boy's whole family. It's a big matter, and the boy has to do this..."

Seeing that Qin Zhangqiu's face became very embarrassed, Gao Pan smiled slightly, and continued:

"Lord Qin, don't worry, you know this matter and I know it. Heaven knows and the earth knows, and no one else will know. If Lord Qin keeps his promise, the evidence of this crime will naturally not come out. You can guarantee it with your personality!"

After saying this, Qin Zhangqiu's face recovered a bit, but he was still very frightened:
"Then what exactly do you want me to do?!"

Seeing that Gao Pan paid so much attention to him, and did not hesitate to blackmail him with such criminal evidence, Qin Zhangqiu thought it was a big deal.

"Don't worry, the boy told you, Mr. Qin, that for you, Mr. Qin, it's just a matter of talking..."

Gao Pan stared at him and slowly said his request.

After Qin Zhangqiu heard this, his eyes were full of disbelief:
"That's it? Mr. Xie, for such a small matter, unexpectedly... actually..."

When it came to the end, Qin Zhangqiu didn't know how to describe this matter, and always felt that Gao Pan was killing chickens with a bull's knife.

Gao Pan is full of awe:

"To you, Mr. Qin, it is indeed a small matter, but to the boy, it is undoubtedly a big matter..."

As he said that, Gao Pan put the criminal evidence he took out on the candle on the side and lit it, and then put it in the brazier he had prepared earlier, so that the criminal evidence would be completely reduced to ashes.

Seeing this, Qin Zhangqiu was very surprised, not knowing what Gao Pan meant.

"If Master Qin keeps his promise, I can assure you that this criminal evidence will be like this ashes and will never appear again!"

And Gao Pan looked at him sincerely and said.

Qin Zhangqiu also understood something in an instant, his face recovered, and he replied sincerely:
"Don't worry, Mr. Xie, Mr. Qin is definitely not a villain who betrayed his promise. I thank you Mr. Qin for your great kindness today. Mr. Qin will still remember it in his heart and never dare to forget it!"

After Gao Pan heard this, he was completely relieved. The reason why he burned the criminal evidence in front of Qin Zhangqiu was to test Qin Zhangqiu's bottom line.

With his sincerity, if Qin Zhangqiu didn't show enough sincerity, Gao Pan would never entrust everything to him.

Now it seems that Gao Pan was right. This middle-aged man who looks a bit simple and honest treats people with sincerity and has no other ambitions. This is one of the reasons why he was able to take the position of commander of the capital city guard, right?
"Okay, since that's the case, I'm begging you, kid. I'm going to respect you like a kid for this glass of wine!"

Putting his mind to rest, after being open and honest, Gao Pan also seemed to respect Qin Zhangqiu very much. Although he knew his body and was not very strong at drinking, he finally raised his glass to Qin Zhangqiu.

Qin Zhangqiu also drank the glass of wine respectfully.There is also some emotion in my heart, some things that seem so mismatched can be brought together, but they become a point of support for each other, which is so wonderful and miraculous.

……

"Crackling..."

With the sound of firecrackers on the street, Tianfeng's 15th year, New Year's Eve also arrived as scheduled.

Originally in the East Courtyard of Gao Mansion, Luo Ying, Lu Rong and others were waiting for Gao Pan, the only master, to come back to celebrate the new year.

But what they waited for was a drunken man, and in the end Luoying had no choice but to order a group of maids to help Gao Pan onto the bed, and she helped Gao Pan take off his clothes and wipe himself, and stood by the bed, counting as New Year's Eve .

Perhaps it was because the back road had already been laid, Gao Pan had no worries in his heart, he understood that even if he was really coerced into a rebellion, he would not be afraid anymore, at worst, if he took his family away overseas, he would not believe it and would not be able to survive.

Therefore, under Qin Zhangqiu's frequent persuasion to drink, he no longer refused, and started to drink after drinking one cup.

During the period, Gao Pan asked Qin Zhangqiu's son, Qin Luobing, what happened to his death.

This time Qin Zhangqiu didn't hide anything, he just said it outright. At that time, Gao Pan just listened quietly and kept it in his heart, and then he didn't wake up.
