Chapter 85: Hou Fangyu Visits Gao Hongtu

(In the new week, Lao Kun begs for a recommendation ticket!) Thanks to the book friend Zhongdao Feng for the 500 yuan reward, thank the book friend for the snow washing the heart of the sky, the book friend He Xian, the book friend is not the day before yesterday, the book friend is proud of the world 99 heavy heaven, and the book friend 20180513210905223 100 yuan reward. )

Hou Fangyu was unwilling.

Why? Why did he ruin his good future because of a strategy?

He is still young, and his father is also old and strong, and he must not live a life like a crane.

Through his efforts, he finally caught the line of Gao Hongtu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Although Gao Hongtu cannot be regarded as a faction of the Donglin Party, he is incompatible with the Eunuch Party.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, this is the only principle that Hou Fangyu believes.

In addition, his father's personal relationship with Gao Hongtu in the Chongzhen Dynasty was good, which made him determined to visit this political tycoon.

Hou Fangyu straightened his clothes in front of the bronze mirror, and put some fat powder on his face, and then walked out with satisfaction.

Cross the Wende Bridge, walk all the way along the bank of the Qinhuai River, go to Xufu Street, bypass the Zhongshan Wangfu and go to the Cheng'en Temple to worship a pillar of incense, Hou Fangyu was a little fixed in his heart.

He is now in Nancheng, and Gao Hongtu's house is in the Dashiqiao generation in Midtown, which is quite a distance.

Hou Fangyu thought about it for a while, but decided to go on foot.

This is not because he can't afford to sit in a sedan chair, with his identity as the leader of the Restoration Society and the merry genius of Jiangnan, there are countless confidants who take the initiative to send him money. It was with this silver that he was able to buy the small mansion in Wuyi Alley.

But Hou Fangyu didn't want to be too ostentatious, so as not to arouse the villain's jealousy.

As the so-called wall fell down, everyone pushed it, and the drum was beaten by 10,000 people.

Houjia is now at its lowest point, and there are countless people who want to see jokes or even fall into the ground.

Hou Fangyu would never let these people get their way.

Fortunately, the strength of the great talent's feet was not bad, and he arrived at the high mansion in the north of the big stone bridge before it was completely dark.

The so-called seven officials in front of the prime minister. Gao Hongtu is now the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, although he is not the prime minister, it is not much worse.

Hou Fangyu shook his robe, strode towards the door, knocked twice, and a door with a smooth body and a shiny face opened the door.

Hou Fangyu took the initiative to worship the name post, and said in a harmonious voice: "I want to see Gao Shangshu in my later life, and please let me know." ”

Hou Fangyu?

The man glanced at the famous post, and saw that it was the famous merry and talented Hou Fangyu who visited his master, and the contempt in his heart lightened a little, and he cleared his throat and said: "Please wait for a while, and Rong will go and say goodbye." ”

Hou Fangyu simply closed his eyes to recuperate, silently reciting the prepared words in his heart.

After about half a pillar of incense, the man went and returned, and called softly: "Hou Gongzi, please come with so-and-so." ”

Hou Fangyu bowed slightly, cautiously crossed the threshold, and followed the door all the way.

How long has it been since he beat his father and sent him to prison for questioning?

Things in officialdom are sometimes so realistic, and before people leave, the tea is already cold.

Hou Fangyu remembered the cold eyes he received when he was running for his father, and let out a long sigh in his heart.

At present, although my father does not have a half-official position, at least he is no longer a criminal minister, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.

Hou Fangyu followed Menzi all the way through the courtyard and came to a moon gate.

The man said respectfully: "Hou Gongzi, entering this door is the back house, it is inconvenient to go to the small one, Hou Gongzi please take care of yourself." ”

Hou Fangyu nodded lightly, took out some broken silver from his purse, handed it to Namenzi and said, "This is a little bit of Hou's heart, and I hope to accept it." ”

When the officer saw the silver, he immediately smiled and grabbed it.

"Childe, please."

Hou Fangyu shook his robe again, took a deep breath, and then walked through the Moon Gate with his head held high.

As soon as you enter the courtyard, there is a shadow wall, and then there is a hand-copying verandah, and there is a rockery at the end of the walk, and the meandering water winds through and converges into a clear pond.

Hou Fangyu walked along the stone bridge to the pavilion in the center of the pond, and when he saw an old man in dark blue clothes reading a scroll, he concluded that this person was Gao Hongtu.

In fact, he had a relationship with Gao Hongtu, but that was ten years ago, when Hou Fangyu was just a sixteen-year-old showman, and he followed his father to a small gathering with a group of bigwigs in the DPRK and China, and had a glimpse of Gao Hongtu.

Now ten years have passed, and his impression of Gao Hongtu has long been blurred.

But looking at the leisurely appearance of this person in the pavilion, who can it be if it is not Gao Hongtu?

Hou Fangyu walked closer and bowed to the end, and saluted respectfully: "Little nephew Hou Fangyu pays a visit to Shibo." ”

He did not call Gao Hongtu Gao Shangshu and Da Sikong, but called him Shibo, just to be as close as possible.

After all, he has a request for others, and if he says it officially, it is not easy to achieve what he wants.

However, there is a risk associated with doing so. In case Gao Hongtu didn't sell his face and directly threw his face, Hou Fangyu was afraid that he would have no choice but to be embarrassed and flee in a hurry.

But Hou Fangyu wanted to gamble once, and he wanted to bet that Gao Hongtu would not humiliate him.

"The virtuous nephew is here? Have a seat. ”

Gao Hongtu nodded to the side and said in harmony.

Hou Fangyu hurriedly said: "Little nephew doesn't dare." ”

"Alas, what are you doing with the old man like this? Well, since you don't want to sit, go with the old man. ”

Gao Hongtu stood up and walked outside, Hou Fangyu followed closely behind half of his body.

"Anyway, this time I came to find the old man, but it was for the sake of Ling Yan?"

Hou Fangyu sighed in his heart, thinking that Gao Shangshu was really straight to the point and quick to talk.

He said the prepared rhetoric in one go: "Shibo, my father came to Nandu from Shenjing, and he has never received the edict of the imperial court. The little nephew, who is a son of man, is really heartbroken in his eyes. I also hope that Shibo can remember the feelings of his former colleagues and recommend one or two to the imperial court, so as to fulfill the heart of the whole family and serve the country. ”

Hou Fangyu's words are extremely beautiful, starting from family affection, adding with the affection of colleagues, and finally ending with the love of serving the country, which is not leaky, so that people can't find a trace of fault.

After finishing speaking, Hou Fangyu quietly waited for Gao Hongtu to reply. Of course, he knew that Gao Hongtu couldn't easily agree to this kind of thing, but as long as Gao Hongtu showed his willingness to recommend, Hou Fangyu would be able to continue to talk about the prepared rhetoric.

After a while, Gao Hongtu sighed: "Ling Yan's affairs, I'm afraid that the old man can't control it." ”

Hou Fangyu's brain exploded, and the whole person was a little confused.

What the? Even Gao Hongtu feels powerless?

He's a dignified secretary of the Ministry of Works!

If even he can't do it, who else in this court has this ability?

Seeing Hou Fangyu's dejected look, Gao Hongtu comforted: "Virtuous nephew, do you know why the imperial court didn't react after Ling Yan came to the Southern Capital?" That's what Your Majesty meant. ”

What does Your Majesty mean?

Hou Fangyu was even more dazed at this time. When today's son deliberately colds his father, what is the purpose of this?
