"No need, no need, how dare Zimo compete with His Highness for food, let His Highness leave it all..."

"Leave it all to me? Heh..." Gao Changgong glanced at Gu Zimo, his thin lips curled slightly, "Understood."

"What do you unserstand?"

Seeing Gao Changgong's half-smile expression, Gu Zimo felt uneasy.

After Gao Changgong glanced at his clothes with a complicated expression, he smiled a little bit, "If you want to beg, you have to get up early, otherwise it will be difficult for you to occupy the territory."

"puff……"

Who wants to beg?

What does Gao Changgong mean!

Gu Zimo was choked and coughed a few times, calmed down, and said a little angrily: "Are you kidding me! I can go home even if I leave the palace. Do I have to go begging so I won't be hungry?"

Regarding Gu Zimo's complaints, Gao Changgong smiled faintly and did not answer.

"What do you mean by not talking? Is it possible that Director Gao and the others can go back to their hometown for the holidays, but I can't?"

Just now when Gu Zimo heard Gao Changgong talk about Gao Wen's return to his hometown for the festival, he felt a surge of excitement. He could finally not have to stay in the palace.

However, listening to Gao Changgong's implication at this moment, it seems that it is not what I understand...

Sure enough, Gao Changgong narrowed his long and narrow eyes slightly, stared at him, and said word by word: "It's what you said, it's true."

"Why am I the only one who can't leave? Your Highness, why do you only embarrass Zimo? I don't think I have ever felt sorry for Your Highness..."

"Because you are different from them."

Gao Changgong's answer made Gu Zimo almost vomit blood.

Gawain also said something similar when he was in the carriage last time.

"They all work for the prince, what's the difference?"

"Of course it's different." Gao Changgong withdrew the redundant expression on his face, and his tone suddenly became a little serious, "They only need to be sincere to this king, but you, not only have to be sincere, but also wholeheartedly, understand?"

"lifelong?"

Gu Zimo's eyes widened suddenly, "No, no, your Highness can't do this, how can Zimo Hede... Absolutely don't have the ability to serve His Highness's side all his life... Your Highness, please choose another virtuous person, choose another virtuous person... ..."

"Oh, let this king choose another talented person? You mean, this king chooses you because you have a bad eye?"

"Ah, Your Highness misunderstood, Zimo didn't mean that..."

"Well, I don't dare to mean that, Wang Liang."

Gao Changgong saw that Gu Zimo's face was devastated, and he glanced at Gu Zimo meaningfully and said: "If someone doesn't stay in the palace well, if he insists on playing up some wrong ideas, I don't mind sending someone to inform Director Gao about their year end. Then there is no need to rush back.”

Gu Zimo swallowed his saliva after being looked at by Gao Changgong, Gu Zimo said, "Your Highness is talking about someone, are you talking about Zimo..."

"Aren't you very smart? Guess for yourself."

The corners of Gu Zimo's mouth twitched wildly, but he couldn't help showing a flattering smile on his face, "Hehe, I guess someone must not be me. You know, I'm very smart. So, there is no need to have any crooked thoughts..."

"Well, I believe you won't." Gao Changgong didn't expose his hypocritical assurance, and after glancing at him, he said with a half-smile: "Have you known about my preferences with Director Gao?"

Gu Zimo was taken aback.

I didn't expect Gao Changgong to say this suddenly.

But he was dissatisfied with Gao Wen in his heart.

I didn't expect Manager Gao to be so easy-going despite his age, that he even told Gao Changgong this.

"Hehehe, it's like this. As His Highness's staff, Zimo wants to serve His Highness wholeheartedly. Therefore, knowing more about your preferences is also for the convenience and better loyalty to Your Highness. Zimo is really very hardworking. of……"

Gu Zimo squeezed out an extremely sincere smile.

He thought that such flattery would be effective for Gao Changgong.

Otherwise, Gao Wen would not happily tell him Gao Changgong's preferences.

Gao Wen did that, wasn't it Gao Changgong's instruction.

Want to make myself loyal to him like an obedient dog, isn't that what it means.

How could Gu Zimo's false words escape Gao Changgong's eyes.

Gao Changgong didn't expose him.

He just looked at Gu Zimo with a half-smile, "You really have a heart."

When Gu Zimo heard the words, he quickly poked his nose up and smiled more obsequiously, "Yes, Your Highness is the pride of Daqi, Zimo has always regarded you as an idol, how dare he not care about your affairs, hehehe... "

Gao Changgong didn't pay attention to Gu Zimo's false remarks, nor did he get angry.

As if he didn't hear it, his eyes moved away from Gu Zimo and landed on a plate of almond cake on the table.

The slender and white fingers picked up a piece of almond cake, and under Gu Zimo's hot gaze, brought it to his lips, and ate it with extremely elegant movements.

Gu Zimo didn't feel hungry at first, but now seeing Gao Changgong eating almond cake, he realized that the glutton was instantly hooked.

His stomach growled, and he didn't give him face at all, making him look extra awkward standing there.

Gu Zimo quietly glanced at Gao Changgong, Gao Changgong had already eaten half of the almond cake.

There were also five pieces of almond puff pastry in the plate. Under the yellowish candlelight, the puff pastry almonds were coated with a more delicious brilliance.

Gu Zimo swallowed his saliva and unconsciously licked his lips.

The almond cake that can be reached just by raising your hand...

But because of what he said just now, he had to hold back his desire for almond cake.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have said that I would leave the almond cake to Gao Changgong.

It's good now, once the words are spoken, they will be overwhelmed.

It was really torture to watch Gao Changgong eat almond cake like this.

By the way, Gao Changgong seems to have mentioned that there are almond cakes in the dining room...

Do you want to go quietly to the dining room by yourself?

Anyway, Gao Changgong is so busy, he will definitely not stare at him.

Having made up his mind, Gu Zimo was about to find an excuse to escape.

Gao Changgong got up suddenly, and walked out of the conference hall arguing.

Gu Zimo looked puzzled, and wanted to go to the dining hall to find almond cakes, but because of Gao Changgong's sudden departure, he put it down for the time being.

Because Gao Changgong is not here at this time, shouldn't it be a good time for him to taste these almond cakes?

Gu Zimo glanced at the plate of almond cake, it was really delicious.

He unceremoniously sat in the position where Gao Changgong was sitting just now, grabbed the almond cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

The crispy taste instantly satisfied his needs.

After eating three pieces of almond cake in a row, he found that the more he ate, the more delicious he ate, until the last piece was left, when Gu Zimo suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the door.

"Okay, Gao Changgong is back!"

He was startled, wiped his mouth, and hurriedly got up, but because he was too nervous, when he got up, he bumped into a vase beside him...

With a bang, the vase fell to the ground and shattered.

Gu Zimo was stunned for a moment, feeling a little at a loss looking at the debris on the ground.

Scratching his head, "It's just a vase, at worst, I'll buy him another one..."

The slender white figure teleported directly from outside the door into the meeting hall with a whoosh.

The sudden appearance made Gu Zimo startled.

But seeing the man staring at him with an extremely ugly face, Gu Zimo felt guilty, no way!

He just ate a few pieces of his almond cake and put it in a vase. As for showing such a frightening face!

Although his heart was stared into a void, Gu Zimo explained to Gao Changgong with a sincere expression on his face: "Just now Zimo accidentally broke the vase, and Zimo will buy the same one to compensate His Highness."

"Heh." Not only did Gao Changgong's complexion not improve because of his explanation, but it became even uglier.

"Zimo will also be responsible for cleaning up these debris..."

"This is an imperial gift bestowed by the Supreme Emperor. It is priceless. It is the only one in the world. How can you compensate me for the same thing?"

Gao Changgong's words made Gu Zimo's face stiffen.

"This, this, this is actually a royal gift from the Supreme Emperor...? That is really a crime, Zimo was really careless just now..."

Since it was so precious, why didn't he put it away properly?

Still put it in such an easy to be touched place?

Gu Zimo even suspected that Gao Changgong put it there deliberately to trip him up.

"This king doesn't suspect that you did it on purpose, but if you break something, you will have to pay for it."

"Yes, yes, Zimo didn't want to evade responsibility, he wanted to pay, and when Zimo got his monthly salary, then..."

Before Gu Zimo could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Gao Changgong, "Are you sure you want to pay off the debt with your monthly salary? With your monthly salary, within ten years, you will have to pay off the debt."

"Ten years? So long? Isn't my monthly salary very high? How come it takes so long..."

Gu Zimo's eyes widened, and he looked at Gao Changgong suspiciously.

He didn't mean to blackmail him on purpose, did he?

But, even if you think about it, you won’t be able to.

He is a member of the royal family and a prince with great military exploits. If he blackmails such a small person as himself, isn't he afraid of losing face if it is spread?

"Your monthly salary is not low, but it's still worse than the royal prize bestowed by the Supreme Emperor."

"Can't you be more flexible? This...Your Highness, I really didn't do it on purpose...For the sake of my hard work for you, can I be less?"

"It's already a friendship price." Gao Changgong took Gu Zimo's aggrieved look into his eyes, and said with a serious expression: "This imperial product is originally a top-grade one, and it is a priceless treasure."

"Okay... ten years, let's say ten years..."

Gu Zimo did not expect that gluttony would cause such a disaster.

Now his intestines are all regretful.

"You seem to be misunderstood. The king said ten years is just a metaphor. With your monthly salary, you can probably pay it off in ten years. However, this king has not promised, and I will give you ten years to pay off this debt."

Gao Changgong suddenly changed the subject, and there was no room for maneuver in his words.

Gu Zimo had just gritted his teeth and promised him a ten-year debt repayment period.

Now, the other party suddenly said that this ten years is not that ten years?

How does Gu Zimo accept this?

"Your Highness, are you serious?"

Gao Changgong's long and narrow black eyes narrowed slightly, exuding a danger that people could not ignore, "When did this king not take it seriously? There is a limit of ten days. You need to pay off the 10 taels owed within ten days." money."

"Ten, ten days??"

Gu Zimo's eyeballs almost fell down.

Regardless of the interests and inferiority, he criticized on the spot: "Why don't you just execute me? Wouldn't it be better to pay the 10 taels of silver with my life?"
