Guizhen

Chapter 274
He is not in a hurry.Cao Zhen took a deep breath, and the smile on his lips remained undiminished.The old Liu of the official department is a watertight master.Tang Zhao is a hot potato.Now it is in his hands, in case something goes wrong...

Cao Zhen swallowed his saliva.He does the dirty and tiring work, and Lao Liu can get credit for nothing with his hands raised.

I can't justify this.

"Qi Fengnian was recommended by Tang Zhao. Without him, the case would not have progressed so fast." The smile on Cao Zhen's lips gradually disappeared, replaced by a touch of bitterness, "You say, whether he has merit or demerit, or Is it a balance of merit and demerit?"

Going around or going around Gao Liangxing.

Xu Sheng twirled his beard with his hands, his expression was as usual, "This matter does not matter merit or demerit, only the Sacred Heart."

Sacred Heart?Cao Zhen frowned slightly, then relaxed.

Yes, Lao Gao has lost his Sacred Heart.No matter how great Qi Fengnian's contribution is, so what?Could it be that sending it to His Majesty will cause trouble to His Majesty?

Cao Zhen had a calculation in his mind.Seeing that he had realized something, Xu Sheng said again: "Besides, if His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the emperor, was not in Ruizhou, how could Qi Fengnian turn the rudder easily?"

Cao Zhen nodded slowly, "That's right, His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, handles things properly." After a pause, he continued: "It should be said that His Royal Highness is a good teacher."

Lao Cao finally got to the point.Xu Sheng was quite relieved.

Cao Zhen glanced at Xu Sheng and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"As you said, it's an eventful time right now." Xu Sheng picked up the wine cup and took a sip, "The crown prince is the foundation of the country. As long as His Royal Highness is safe and sound, everything will be safe and sound."

Hearing this, Cao Zhen was thoughtful.It seems... Elder Xu Ge meant something else?
Mr. Xu Ge put down the wine cup, and smiled, "It's okay. Tang Zhao alone won't cause any trouble. As for the mediocre officials under him, it's best to take this opportunity to clarify. Just let it go and do it." This is exactly what His Majesty wants."

What Lao Xu said was not different from what he thought.However, is Mr. Xu Ge's proposition consistent with other elders?Cao Zhen bent his lips and smiled, then picked up the jug and filled Xu Sheng's wine cup.

Xu Sheng groaned, "I can't drink anymore, I can't drink anymore. If I drink any more, I will be drunk."

You can pull it down.When Lao Xu was young, he was famous for drinking a thousand cups without getting drunk.Whenever he entered the palace for a banquet, he drank from the beginning to the end, and he could also recite poems and make good sentences frequently.

"You are too modest." Cao Zhen teased.

Xu Sheng smiled and shook his head, "Our food is light, and I don't have any taste in my mouth. It's okay to go out for tooth-beating sacrifices, but I dare not drink too much wine." The old wife has a good nose.If he smelled alcohol, he would have to chatter again.She also muttered all day, eating less meat and more vegetables.

What is the difference between eating vegetables and eating grass?He is not a rabbit.

Cao Zhen understood.They are all married people, he understands.

Alas, the important officials in the court who call the wind and rain in the court are more or less under the control of women when they return home.

Home and everything are going well.This is also impossible.

The two looked at each other and smiled, toasting and drinking.

After drinking for three rounds, Cao Zhen changed the subject, "I met the Jinsi man on the way, and he is going to the Lu residence. I don't know what's going on with the Lu residence."

This he knows.His Majesty urgently summoned Xiao Lu back to Beijing.Xu Sheng snorted, "Really? Going to the Lu Mansion again?" After thinking for a while, he said, "It's no wonder, now that the Lu family has a Lu Qin envoy, it's reasonable for His Majesty to think highly of him."

"By the way, Mr. Lu is in Suzhou." Cao Zhen seemed to ask casually, but Xu Sheng could hear a hint of envy and jealousy.Everyone knows that Lu Guan will be promoted if he fulfills his wishes this time.

As for where to go?There was a little smile in Xu Sheng's eyes.Someone had to fill Lao Gao's vacant seat.Lu Guan is a mature and sophisticated man, cautious and prudent.Working with him will definitely get along well.

"Almost." Xu Sheng replied perfunctorily.

Cao Zhen saw that he didn't want to talk more, so he changed the subject and said, "Now the Lu family is really flourishing."

Xu Sheng laughed softly, "It can't be called wind and water, at most it's luck."

every dog ​​has his day……

Cao Zhen tasted these four words carefully and did not speak.

……

Gao Liangxing's forehead was covered with a wet towel, and he lay limp on the bed, moaning from time to time.

Gao Lan bent her waist, lowered her voice, and said respectfully, "Grandfather, please wait a moment. Father has gone to invite the imperial physician, and he will be back in a while."

Gao Liangxing closed his eyes and hummed muffledly.

He is not sick.To be precise, I feel uncomfortable and not sick.

Who would have thought that His Majesty would arrest Tang Zhao so quickly and send him directly to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to await interrogation.From this point of view, Qi Fengnian did the right thing.

Gao Liangxing frowned.Thinking that he has been in the officialdom for many years, he is not as decisive as Qi Fengnian.Said to get rid of Tang Zhao and immediately got rid of it, without the slightest procrastination.

well!He is really old.

Gao Liang let out a long sigh, which made Gao Lan's heart dry.Ever since Lu Wu got rid of the evil spirits on his grandfather, his grandfather's spirit has been completely different from before.Always moans.

What is the worry?

Gao Lan was impatient but still had to pretend to be filial, "Why don't you...have some water?"

Gao Liangxing shook his head, apparently too lazy to say anything.

"Then you have a good rest." Gao Lan adjusted the bed curtains, and sat on the brocade tree with a sigh of relief.He has not been to the academy for many days.

It's not because Gao Liang's illness is so serious, but because he doesn't want to go to the academy, and he doesn't want to face those meaningful and hypocritical faces.

Right now the Gao family has indeed lost its former glory, but he believes that one day, the Gao family will become the hottest home of the upstarts in the capital.

Gao Lan's overwhelming pride was interrupted by the sound of footsteps approaching from far outside the door.

Gao Rong pushed open the door and hurried in, "I invited Doctor Luo here."

Hearing this remark, Gao Lan's spirit was lifted.Doctor Luo's willingness to betray the Gao family's face is enough to prove that the Gao family's situation is not too bad.

Gao Liangxing's dull voice came from the curtain, "Where are you? Please come in."

Gao Rong should be, turned and went out.Not long after, Imperial Physician Luo followed him into the house.

After exchanging greetings, he took out the pillow to feel Gao Liangxing's pulse, and wrote a prescription.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Gao Liangxing leaned on the bed weakly, and said to Doctor Luo who wrote the prescription: "I will live well in a few days."

"Grandfather! Don't say anything depressing, it's okay, it's definitely okay!" Gao Landon's eyes turned red.

Imperial Physician Luo glanced at Gao Lan, showing displeasure, "Master Gao is in good health, Young Master Gao doesn't need to cry."

He did not shed tears.Gao Lan was taken aback, and went to look at Gao Rong in great perplexity.Gao Rong went to see Gao Liangxing.

Gao Liangxing frowned slightly.He was not angry because of Imperial Physician Luo's attitude towards Gao Lan, but because of the words "Master Gao".

Now he has become an idle and panicked "grandfather"?
