Chapter 320: Don't Be a Man

It is said that after Gao Shen got out of the prison of Taishou Mansion, he went straight to the main courtyard where Wang Jin was.

Gao Shen's identity in Chang'an City is very embarrassing now, and it is an embarrassment that is difficult to solve.

He was originally a Xianbei military household, and the Gao family was also a powerful family in the north, so as soon as he entered the army, it was smooth sailing, and he mixed a lot of military exploits with his family soldiers. When Emperor Wei conquered the Xia Kingdom, he won the position of the vanguard general that everyone envied, and took the lead in following several generals to capture Chang'an City.

Afterwards, he was recommended by Tuoba Su, the king of Changshan, in the meritorious deeds, and was given by Emperor Wei as the general of the town to manage the security of Chang'an, and at this time he was only twenty-six years old, which can be described as a young and handsome man with an unlimited future.

It's a pity that it didn't take long for King Changshan to be sent by His Majesty to Tongwan to be the general of Tongwan City, and Chang'an City was sent to guard another general, he was originally counted as the descendant of King Changshan, after General Wang Jin was sent to Chang'an, his identity was naturally extremely embarrassing.

However, his official position was given by Tuoba Tao himself, and Wang Jin couldn't transfer him to replace him with his own people.

At this time, Gao Shen realized that King Changshan would recommend him was actually a conspiracy and game of the superiors, and others were here, so they should always be grateful to King Changshan for his kindness, and even if King Changshan guarded Tongwan, he would not lose the source of information to understand Chang'an.

Gao Shen was originally just a military general, but he was involved in the officialdom, and he secretly complained in his heart, and he couldn't ask for a transfer if he wanted to. However, the name of the lieutenant is "school captain", in fact, the local five-grade military general, not only the position is high, but also the fat is poor, once the main general of the public security and the city gate official, even if he does nothing, the daily filial piety is also staggering.

But Gao Shen knew that he couldn't leave a trace of the handle for Wang Jin to grasp, and the official matter was small, with the cruelty of this high-level struggle, his life would be lost in a blink of an eye, so Gao Shen not only did not have a greedy nature, but even the restraint department would not disturb the people, let alone cause trouble, otherwise he would be punished fifty with a cane.

Even if it is a man in the army, fifty of the staff can kill him, and his subordinates originally thought that following the captain of the town to eat and drink spicy food, no matter how bad it is, they can exploit it in the hands of the small people, but with such a general who seems to have fallen from the sky, it is simply regretful.

Not only that, Gao Shen even personally inspected the security of Chang'an City every day, but he would not tolerate any small night, thief, or rebel. He doesn't count his daytime patrols, and he personally leads the team to inspect the curfew at night, lest there be a trace of dereliction of duty.

Since he served as the lieutenant of Chang'an, not to mention anything else, the life of the people at the bottom is much better, everyone sees him, and they all respectfully call him "General Gao", if there is a grievance, being blackmailed, they will go to the yamen to find him for justice.

Everyone exaggerates the profundity of his character, but only he knows that this is not his intention. He came from a strong local background, and he is used to seeing the weak and the strong, where is there such a bodhisattva heart? If it weren't for Wang Jin and Wang Jin's subordinates eyeing him, and there was King Changshan and his family to provide him with support outside, such a day when the inside and outside were not people, he was afraid that he would have been driven crazy a long time ago.

Therefore, the more the people in the outside world praise him, the more he is regarded as a "master", the more his subordinates hate him, and he can't scrape the oil and water, and he doesn't see the top boss Wang Jin who scrapes the oil and water, the more he treats him as a thorn in the flesh.

If you want to talk about why Wang Jin is so arrogant, you have to talk about this person's background. Why didn't even Changshan King Tuoba Su and Gao Shen dare to provoke him.

Wang Jin did not rely on the war to get the military merits, he supervised the construction of engineering equipment during the summer campaign, so he was promoted from the Marquis of Qiu to the Duke of Huainan, stayed to guard Chang'an, and became a landlord and general.

In fact, Chang'an was originally well governed, Helian Ding abandoned the city and left at that time, Chang'an City almost did not suffer any losses in the war, Wang Jin took over Chang'an, it was much easier than Tuoba Su to take over Tongwan.

Wang Jin can get the unanimous general of Chang'an, so he is naturally valuable. His mother-in-law is the sister of the former emperor, the cousin of the current emperor Tuoba Tao, and the aunt of the current Montenegrin general Tuobati, this princess and Tuobati's father Tuoba Yao are the same mother.

Why do you say mother-in-law? Because this princess did not give birth, Wang Jin was born to a servant girl and was raised by the princess. There are probably some problems with the bloodline of the Wang family, Wang Jin's father only has this one old son until he dies, and Wang Jin's uncle has no son until he dies, so Wang Jin attacked the titles of his father and his uncle, one of whom supported two families.

This princess was extremely favored when she was in the palace in the past, and she married the royal family as a descendant, and she was even more in the royal family. She didn't give birth to a child, but she raised him Wang Jin since she was a child, and naturally doted on this child very much, and planned for him everywhere, which made him go all the way to the point of Guogong without danger.

Maybe it was born to a servant girl, Wang Jin's bearing and appearance are not like his father at all, because he was spoiled too much, his martial arts and literary talents are mediocre. But he is very good at employing people, and has a unique ability to supervise the construction of engineering equipment and dispatch logistics, which can be used to get the appointment of Tuobatao.

This Wang Jin has a problem that the sons of a wealthy aristocratic family usually do not have - love of money. This made this Huainan Duke and Chang'an Taishou become annoying.

Everyone thought that the general of the town army in Chang'an was the position that made the most money, but in fact, because this position was stared at by countless people, Wang Jin did not dare to open his hands to loot, nor did he dare to oppress the people under his rule too much. However, this is not the case with the lieutenant in charge of law and order and conscription, this official position is most suitable for collecting the people's fat and people's ointment, and he is often the confidant of the general of the town army, providing wealth for the Taishou or the general of the town army, and the general provides him with shelter and calms the people's grievances.

In this way, "it is not the corruption/corruption of the officials, but the one at the top. [,! ] are blinded", everyone thinks so, and the general of the town army sits firmly. When the money is enough, the people's grievances have reached a great point, and then think of a way to remove the lieutenant of the town and change him to a seat, and the people's grievances will naturally subside.

This cycle is called "convention".

As for what will happen to the deposed lieutenant of the town army, it depends on the relationship with the town army general and how the town army general will protect him.

Anyway, the money has been earned, the family is rich, and only one person is punished, this business couldn't be better.

Maybe Tuoba Tao saw that Wang Jin loved money, or maybe Changshan Wang Tuoba Su was unwilling to be in Chang'an to turmoil, all in all, Gao Shen, a cautious person, was put in the position of the lieutenant of Zhenshu.

Wang Jin really can't wait to chop up Gao Shen and feed it to the dog even in his dreams at night, but during the day, he still has to smile and praise him for "being loyal to his duties" and "hard work".

After a long time, don't say that Gao Shen is tired, Wang Jin and the group of people behind Wang Jin are also tired.

Gao Shen was even more frightened than Wang Jin, because if a person acts too much, he will really be affected.

He has been influenced by a strong family since he was a child, and he has been accustomed to everyone being afraid of him, he is high, but in order not to leave a handle, he is law-abiding, although he is not greedy for any wealth (his family is rich and he actually doesn't care much about this), but everywhere he goes, everyone respects him, loves him, and pursues him from the heart.

It's a terrible problem. The officialdom of Wei is in a mess, Pingcheng is fine, the place can be described as a miasma, and it is impossible for a person with a real high character to survive.

Gao Shen now has King Changshan as a backer behind him, so he can be so maverick, but if he is transferred elsewhere in the future, but he has a reputation of "Qinggao", his career is almost equivalent to being broken, whether it is a boss or a colleague, they will desperately suppress him.

The torment and pain of Gao Shen's heart are completely incomprehensible to outsiders. From the perspective of human nature, everyone naturally likes others to like him and love him, and he can also be an upright and merciful person. It can be said from reality that if a person does not have an extremely powerful status and identity and becomes such a "transcendent world", then there is only one way to go as a "martyr".

Gao Shen doesn't want to be a martyr, Gao Shen wants to escape.

So when Chen Jie, who was beside Helian Zhishui, took out the card, Gao Shen knew that his opportunity had come.

Hu Ben Zuo Sima, General Hu Wei, and Hua Mulan have been artificially shaped into a new generation of "God of War" by Tuoba Tao and the forces in the Xianbei army since the Battle of Rouran.

And the most sought after thing about this general is not his martial bravery, but Tuoba Tao's trust and care for him like a brother.

Mulan is only twenty-one years old now, and she has already led an army, but she has no descendants, so she can be said to be the best object for many men who want to climb up. The so-called development is to be small, this general said in the future that he will not position the extremely human minister, and if he does not climb now, he will not be able to make up in the future.

Gao Shen is so dedicated and shows people with a bold face, all because he has heard that this general likes to deal with bold men. So he solved the matter of the Qiang people with great means, and on the other hand, he sold this general a good one, knowing that Lu Shuihu had a huge fortune behind him, but he didn't even touch it.

As long as General Hua has his favor here, if he asks General Hua for help, with the reputation spread by this general, he will definitely not sit idly by.

In this way, Gao Shen is confident that he can make friends with this general and indirectly leave this "high position" that makes him conservative and tormented.

In a way that is not a reservoir dog.

Gao Shen arranged a qiē, and even paid out of his own pocket to deal with the "brothers" in prison, just waiting to show the matter to Wang Jin, even if it was done.

He thought very clearly, if he was willing to give it to Wang Jin completely, with Wang Jin's character, it was impossible not to accept it. Gao Shen doesn't want any reward, he just wants to take Mulan's boat downwind, as for fame and fortune, they are all floating clouds compared to his life.

Gao Shen has calculated everything, but he can't calculate people's hearts

Taishou House.

Wang Jin, who was woken up in the middle of the night, naturally had a bad temper, especially the person who woke him up was still the person he hated the most.

But the matter reported by the man he hated the most was so important that he gradually sat upright and listened clearly with his ears sideways.

After Gao Shen reported it, Wang Jin sent a few henchmen to investigate in the prison, but after a while, a few henchmen came back and said something in Wang Jin's ear.

As soon as Wang Jin heard the words of a few henchmen, his eyes immediately flashed with a strange figure, and his expression became weird when he looked at Gao Shen.

Gao Shen struggled to make a living under Wang Jin, and naturally knew his every move very well, and he felt a chill in his heart at the moment, and preemptively showed favor:

"The last general is just at the right time, and he happened to meet the flower general who was in a small service during the night patrol, if it weren't for the general's earnest teaching, the last general would not have this understanding. This matter is all the work of the general, and the general ......"

"Don't talk about this ...... yet" Wang Jin waved his hand indifferently: "Who else knows the identity of this Mulan, except for you?"

Gao Shen thought that Wang Jin was afraid that someone would know about his robbery, and he did take precautions before, but before it was to protect Mulan's safety, he immediately said loudly: "The subordinates of the last general only thought that they were arresting the gangsters who committed the murder with weapons, and they didn't know the identity of General Hua. However, they probably misunderstood that the last general and the leader of Lu Shuihu had an old relationship, so they took care of them so much......".

[,! "Good, good! "

Wang Jin narrowed his eyes and propped his chin to speak: "Hua Mulan is carrying all the Tiger Ben Army with her?"

"It's not the Tiger Army, it's a group of hired Lu Shuihu people."

Gao Shen was overjoyed when he saw him ask so carefully, "So Hua Sima must be grateful for the general's kindness, this is a great hero, and it is also good for the general to make friends!" "

"Lu Shuihu? Mulan is really as rumored to have a pitiful weak foundation......"

Wang Jin sneered, as if he finally understood Gao Shen's thoughts, and asked him again.

"How many soft and armed equipment did those Qiang people have on them?"

Gao Shen's eyes darkened, knowing that Wang Jin wanted to swallow even these treasures.

But the money has been distributed to the subordinates, and the weapons and weapons have been confiscated and put into the public treasury. It is impossible to make the subordinates spit out the money and jewelry, so they have to pay for it themselves.

Thinking of this, Gao Shen gritted his teeth painfully: "There are about one hundred taels of silver."

Although his family was wealthy, he didn't have much money on him, and a hundred taels of silver was all he could muster.

"It's good that you dare to lie to me! There are hundreds of pounds of gold! "

Wang Jin slapped the case and scolded loudly.

"Come on, take down this corrupt official who has embezzled a huge amount of money and bitten the rich merchants of the Western Regions as thieves!" Before Wang Jin could finish speaking, more than a dozen sturdy warriors jumped out from behind, throwing the high-depth pressure of the five bodies to the ground, unable to move at all.

"What gold? Where is the gold? General, don't listen to nonsense! I don't even covet a grain of rice or a thread on weekdays, how can I embezzle a huge amount of money! "

Gao Shen's heart was cold, knowing that either Wang Jin's greed had an attack, or something had changed, what he was most afraid of was that Wang Jin's faction happened to be at odds with Mulan, and it happened that Hua Mulan left Beijing and had no army to protect her, so she had some terrible thoughts.

Either way, Gao Shen will not escape death today.

Wang Jin will not leave a living mouth!

It's no wonder that he wanted to curry favor with him, but he ended up losing his life. If he saves Mulan, let her go, don't have so many greedy thoughts......

No, Wang Jin wanted to kill him a long time ago, but there was no excuse, but now that he has it, no matter whether Hua Mulan leaves or not, as long as he takes down the Qiang people, he can put on him a charge of "marrying trouble and seizing wealth".

This fool doesn't care if he is a thief or not, he has nothing in his head except gold and silver treasures!

Majesty xià mistook me!

The world misunderstands me!

Gao Shen struggled unwillingly, but the more he struggled, the harder the others pressed. In a moment, he ran out of strength, and could only crawl at Wang Jin's feet like a dead dog.

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time. My grandmother used to tell me that if you can't move someone you hate, you just have to wait, and when he is most proud, that is, when he gets his wish, I didn't understand it before, but now I understand it a little."

Wang Jin poked Gao Shen's forehead with his toes and sneered.

"High Envoy? Tall man? Gao Qingtian? You're worthy of it, too?"

Wang Jin's face was hideous, as if the old hatred of the past had come to his heart, and he raised his foot and stepped on Gao Shen's head fiercely, making him almost faint to death.

"Well, I'm the prince of the country, and I can't get my hands and feet dirty for a lowly person like you." Wang Jin nervously withdrew his foot and said a few words to the people around him.

Gao Shen lay on the ground, vaguely heard something "arson", "gold" Yunyun, because of the pain, his mind was blurred, and he completely lost half of his usual intelligence.

Wang Jin seemed to feel that this matter was not suitable for regeneration, and stretched out his hand and ordered a few guards with strong martial arts skills to come out.

"You dealt with the high school lieutenant, remember to deal with it cleanly, and said to the outside world that you were killed by Lu Shuihu. What kind of weapons did the Lu Shuihu people use?"

"Mostly knives, sir."

"Then kill with a knife, and don't splash blood everywhere. After killing it, throw it to the Lushuihu people, and you will come back to restore your life."

Wang Jin glanced at Gao Shen with disdain.

"Drag it out, if you live, you'll be an eyesore for me, and if you're dead, you'll be far away from me."

"Yes!"
