Gu Pan Lanling

"It was only when you asked me for help that I remembered that you are my aide? Then you have shown disdain for the position of aide several times before, can I understand that you are playing hard to get?"

"I do not have……"

"Since there is no one, in your opinion, a person who never admits in his heart that he is the king's aide, what reason does the king have to listen to what he says?"

Gao Changgong's rhetorical question stunned Gu Zimo.

"I……"

Indeed, what Gao Changgong said was the truth.

It never occurred to him to be his staff member.

It was only when he was interceding for Gao Wen that he thought of using the position of aide to speak for Gao Wen.

However, these were not hidden from Gao Changgong's eyes at all.

Now, Gao Changgong asked him so clearly and openly, he couldn't quibble at all.

Right now, Gao Changgong speaks in a golden voice.

If he didn't think of a way, Gao Wen would definitely be kicked out.

Although Gu Zimo had some grudges against Gao Wen before.However, Gao Wen was the only person in the palace who cared about him the most.

If even Gao Wen left, how would he live in this huge palace in the future?

Looking at Gao Changgong's peerless face, Gu Zimo took a deep breath, as if he had made a difficult decision, "I am willing to be punished instead of Director Gao, and I can do whatever you punish me, as long as you take back your life and let me be punished." Manager Gao stay!"

A little afraid that Gao Changgong would not believe what he said, Gu Zimo hastily added: "I'm serious, I'm not perfunctory!"

"Can do anything?"

"Yes, you can do anything!"

Gao Changgong's calm eyes flickered faintly, and the corners of his lips smiled a little bit, "If I want you to stay by my side willingly, will you agree?"

"Is my willingness important?" He didn't agree to be this staff member before, and Gao Changgong used his power to oppress him to have to be this staff member.

Now come to ask him to be willing?

He was really weird.

It's not the love between a man and a woman, what kind of willingness is there for?

The smile on the corners of Gao Changgong's lips faded a little, and his stern face became a little more serious, "If the king said it was very important, what should you do?"

"I……"

If you tell Gao Changgong that he is willing to stay willingly, will Gao Changgong believe it?

Even if Gao Changgong believed him, he wouldn't believe it.

He never wanted to leave this cage and return to freedom.

"Having said so much, you are actually playing tricks on me. You know that I can't be willing to be your aide, but here you use this request in exchange for Director Gao to stay. Don't you think you are despicable?"

"No one asked you to meddle in your own business and ask for this favor."

"Do you think I'm as ruthless as you? No matter what, Mr. Gao is an old man by your side. He has been with you for so many years. He has been conscientious and diligent. I can't say how much credit he has made, but it is completely unnecessary for you to say a few words. Expel him from the palace? He is at this age, what do you want him to do out of the palace?"

Gao Changgong looked at Gu Zimo filled with righteous indignation, didn't say anything, just stood aside silently.

"Forget it, a ruthless person like you is not worthy of letting Director Gao be loyal to you, let him leave.

And I, hereby formally resign from your position as an aide, and have nothing to do with you in the future!

If you want to blackmail my family to make things difficult for me, you can do as you please, I, Gu Zimo, will be a hero again in 18 years! "

Gu Zimo was very angry, glared at Gao Changgong, and after saying this harshly, he turned his head and left.

He didn't care whether Gao Changgong answered or not.

Anyway, from now on, he is no longer his aide.

In the future, he will have nothing to do with Gao Changgong.

It feels so good to remove all the shackles in my heart...

It's just that parents, if they are really affected, he can only hope that he will be filial in the next life.

After Gu Zimo's angrily leaving figure gradually disappeared from Gao Changgong's sight, Gao Changgong's lowered eyes slightly opened, but there was an unusual softness in the originally indifferent eyes.

Gu Zimo didn't want to take advantage of King Lanling.

He took off all the things worn by his staff and put them in the room.

When he left the "Ink" garden, he was only wearing the blue linen gown that he wore on the day he came to Lanling Palace.

After taking off his luxurious silk clothes, he felt extremely relaxed.

Step by step, he walked towards the gate, and met no one along the way.

Gu Zimo was actually a little apprehensive.

Maybe Gao Changgong will order someone to take him down before he leaves the gate of the palace.

After all, this is the territory of his King Lanling, and no one can stop him if he wants to cover the sky with one hand.

"Master Zimo..."

Just as Gu Zimo was feeling uneasy and walking faster and faster, there was a sound of Gao Wen's out of breath panting behind him, "Mr. Zimo...please stay..."

Gu Zimo turned his head and looked at Gao Wen. Gao Wen wiped his sweat while holding up the hem of his gown, and said, "Mr. Zimo, where are you going?"

"Where can I go? Naturally, leave this ghost place."

Gu Zimo said angrily, seeing that Gao Wen was still dressed as a manager, he frowned, "You and I are going to leave here anyway, why don't we leave together, I'll wait for you to change clothes, and we will leave together."

"My lord, why are you leaving instead of leaving? This...why?" Gao Wen looked at Gu Zimo's angry look, really puzzled.

"You don't need to leave?" Gu Zimo looked at Gao Wen suspiciously.

"That's right, I don't have to leave the palace anymore. For some reason, His Highness withdrew his order and was extra merciful. He allowed me to continue to serve as the chief steward, but he was fined for the next three months' salary..."

"real or fake?"

Just now when he pleaded with Gao Changgong, Gao Changgong's reaction made it clear that he was not accommodating at all, and there was no room for change?

How could he take it back with such kung fu?

"Of course it's true. How can I make fun of this kind of thing with the young master?"

Seeing Gao Wen's sincere face, Gu Zimo believed it.

It seems that Gao Changgong is still a sensible person.

After all, Gao Wen had helped him manage the affairs of the mansion for many years, if Gao Wen was suddenly allowed to leave, wouldn't the mansion be in chaos?

It seems that I am worrying blindly.

Maybe if he didn't plead for mercy, Gao Wen would not be driven away either.

"You can stay because of your outstanding ability, which means that he is not so incurable."

"Mr. Zimo's words are wrong. Your Highness never lacks capable people. If I leave, there will be someone who can do better than me...

And the reason why I can stay is all thanks to you, Young Master, if you hadn't pleaded for me, how could Your Highness be lenient..."

"I don't have such a big face. It has absolutely nothing to do with me if he keeps you. "

"Master Zimo, in fact, His Highness..."

"Actually, what is he?" Seeing that Gao Wen hesitated to speak, Gu Zimo's curiosity was aroused.

Gao Wen's expression was unnatural for a moment.Soon, he deftly resolved it. Looking at Gu Zimo's attire, he hurriedly said to Gu Zimo, "Mr. Zimo, why did you change into this outfit?"

"I didn't think you were going to leave, let's go with you." Gu Zimo looked down at the coarse linen clothes on his body, which really didn't match the majesty of the palace.

"Mr. Zimo, you don't think I'm going to leave, are you also..."

Speaking of which, if he could not tear himself apart with Gao Changgong, he would naturally want to maintain such a superficial peace.

At least you don't have to hurt your parents.

But when he thought of the harsh words he had just said to Gao Changgong, Gu Zimo's scalp became a little numb again.

Will Gao Changgong bear hatred for himself, which is not good for his parents?

Thinking of this, Gu Zimo hurriedly asked Gao Wen, "Will there be almond cake in the dining room?"

"Young master, are you hungry?"

"Forget it, I'll go and see for myself."

Gu Zimo ran towards the dining room as he spoke.

After a while, Gao Wen saw Gu Zimo walking towards him with a plate of almond cakes, and asked him, "Is Your Highness in Gong Yuan?" "

"Yes, it is……"

After Gao Wen finished speaking, he saw Gu Zimo holding the almond cake, turned around and headed towards "Gongyuan".

As if reflecting something suddenly, Gao Wen's face was suddenly covered with a smile.

"Mr. Zimo, I finally got the hang of it..."

Gu Zimo stood under the "Gong" plaque, let out a long breath, and encouraged himself in his heart: "Gu Zimo, it's okay, you dare to tear yourself apart with him, now come and make peace with him , what's so difficult! Besides, if you don't reach out and don't hit the smiling face, Gao Changgong will definitely not hit you!"

He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but found that the door was not closed tightly, there was a gap, and he saw that Gao Changgong was not in the room.

"Not here? Gao Wen just said clearly that he was here..."

Who cares, it's fine if he's not here, so he'll go in and wait for him to come back.

Gu Zimo reached out and pushed the door open, and walked in.

Inside it was very different from the last time he was here.

All the tents on the bed were replaced with new ones, and he suddenly remembered that Hu Luxue stayed here that night.

Couldn't it be because Hu Luxue went to great lengths to renew all the decorations in the house because he slept here for one night?

This idea was quickly verified.

The pillows and mattresses used on the couch are all brand new...

Good guy, Gao Changgong, this is too weird.

But I have to say that the new mattress on the couch looks very soft, making Gu Zimo want to lie on it and experience it.

Glancing at the door, Gu Zimo suddenly became more courageous. Anyway, he would not be here, even if he rolled and turned on his couch, he wouldn't know.

Just after rolling twice, Gu Zimo raised his hand and suddenly touched a scroll under the pillow.

Suddenly, Gu Zimo sat up and took out the scroll from under the pillow.

Could it be a martial arts secret book?

Gu Zimo's curiosity was instantly overwhelmed. If it was really a secret book of martial arts, he would have picked up a treasure.

Excited, his hands trembling as he untied the tie on the scroll.

However, when the scroll was opened, there was a portrait in the scroll——

Gu Zimo was dumbfounded on the spot.

Why does this picture look so familiar...

No, this is more than familiar.

The person in this portrait is clearly... Gu Zimo himself!

Gao Changgong is fine, why put his portrait under his pillow?
