Gao Shengguan is twenty-six years old, 1.85 meters tall, with a thin body, a slender face, slender eyes, red spots on his white face, a little wooden, and endocrine disorders.

Qing Dynasty men generally reach the age of marriage at the age of 20, and parents will set up a wedding wine for their children, and Gao Shengguan belongs to older youths, which also shows that his family is not favored, and the high-ranking officials have not even given their nephews a high promotion in addition to wedding gifts.

How much resentment does a high-rise house belong to a marginal person, and he looks at a large amount of wealth with a covetous heart, this is the fate of the child born to the concubine, the unreasonable inheritance system, the unfair fate of life, and there is nothing to do in the front yard of the high-rise mansion, what would he do in a place like him, Li Guolou looked at the high promotion and couldn't help but cry out for the fate of this person.

"Gao Shengguan, you are not married yet, are you?" Li Guolou is not very old, and his tone is like an old pedant.

Gao Shengguan moved his buttocks nervously, sat up straight, and said, "No." "Peeping at Li Guolou, who sits on the main seat, how to do a Jiupin official at a young age, the same person has a different life, and envy Li Guolou's good life.

Li Guolou said: "I've been studying in a private school for a few years!" ”

"Ten years." Gao Shengguan squeezed out a sentence.

"Oh······" Li Guolou looked at the cramped and uneasy Gao Shengguan, few people saw that the officials could be as stable as Mount Tai, most of them became nervous like Gao Shengguan, judging from Gao Shengguan's panicked behavior, he didn't look like a scheming person, could he have miscalculated, it was not Gao Shengguan who hid the criminals behind the scenes, Li Guolou became suspicious, it seemed that he wanted to talk more about Gao Shengguan, and to understand a person, he had time.

Li Guolou asked with a smile: "What kind of book is Gao Shengguan reading now!" ”

"Captain Li, I am reading the Zizhi Tongjian in my later years, taking history as a mirror, and the style and bones of the ancients are worth learning from me." The high-ranking official bowed his hand, imitated the appearance of a humble gentleman, and prepared to meet friends with literature.

Li Guolou smiled freely, reciting the beginning of Zizhi Tongjian, he is a real talent, no cultural foundation, how can he be a nine-grade official, shook his head and said: "The twenty-third year of King Weilie, Wu Yin, in 403 BC, the first Jin doctor Wei Si, Zhao Ji, and Han Qian were the princes, and the minister Guang said: The position of the Son of Heaven is no greater than the courtesy, the ceremony is no greater than the point, the point is not greater than the name, what is the ceremony, the discipline is also; What is the point, the monarch and the minister are also; What is the name, the prince, the marquis, the king, the doctor is also, the husband is the breadth of the four seas, the people of the trillion people, subject to one person, although there is a peerless power, the wisdom of the world, do not dare not run and serve, is not to the etiquette for the outline of the discipline, is the son of heaven unified the three dukes, the three princes lead the princes, the princes system of the secretary of the doctor, the secretary of the doctor to govern the scholars, the noble to the cheap, the cheap to inherit the noble, the upper and the lower, the heart of the luck of the siblings, the fundamental system of the branches; In the next matter, the heart of the brother and sister, the root of the branch and the leaf, and then the upper and lower protection and the country's security, so it is said: The duty of the Son of Heaven is greater than the courtesy! ”

There is room to be a man, Li Guolou stopped showing his ability, and said with a smile: "Seeing the laughter of Gao Shengguan, this official thinks of Sima Guang's proud demeanor, and can't help but think of the good times when he was studying in the past, I don't know how many articles Gao Gongzi has read!" ”

Gao Shengguan didn't dare to hold it up, so he arched his hand and said: "Late life, I only read the fortieth article, although I also took some notes, I can't memorize it, and there is a gap between me and Chief Li!" ”

"Hehehe." Li Guolou listened to the comfort, the Qing Dynasty people read is to read hard, there is no memorization ability, then even the qualification to be a fake show, at this time to write an article, is to be on the side, copy a large number of sage quotations, the exam proposition is also copied from the Four Books and Five Classics, if you don't know the source of the proposition, then don't take the exam, go home and sell sweet potatoes.

"Gao Gongzi, this official heard that Gao Xiuxiu died on the night you were drunk, is there such a thing?" As soon as the conversation changed, Li Guolou directly cut to the topic and watched how the promoted official reacted.

"Yes, I regret that I shouldn't drink and make mistakes." Gao Shengguan immediately became worried, clenched his fists, and his annoyance was revealed.

Li Guolou's good impression of Gao Shengguan collapsed in his heart, obviously gloating, and he didn't deal with his cousin Gao Xiuxiu, but he pretended to be distressed, and he didn't want to bluff him, Li Guolou sentenced Gao Shengguan to death.

"Oh······ I heard Mr. Gao say that you came up with the idea of hanging oil lamps on the way from the backyard to the embroidery building that night, right? Li Guolou looked at Gao Shengguan intently, this was a test for Gao Shengguan, and he could see whether the other party was lying or not.

"What kind of thing is this, I also gave Manager Gao the idea of sending someone to guide the way, why didn't he say this." The scholar is smart, and Gao Shengguan immediately understood that Li Guolou had something to say, and began to rummage through the bottom of the box, thirty-six plans, which trick to use is up to the manager Gao Xin'an.

Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "Gao Shengguan, do you hate your uncle!" ”

"Don't hate, why do you hate my uncle, it's my father who has defeated the family, I'm already very good at my uncle's house, my uncle is deliberately fixing me, it depends on whether I can stand it or not, I'm not stupid, this family business will be given to me sooner or later, I won't be poor in the future, now it's called hard work, Captain Li is right!"

Gao Shengguan's words made Li Guolou completely speechless, he met a smart person, Gao Shengguan knew his position and the status of this family in the future, as long as he didn't make mistakes, good days would eventually come, did he miscalculate, Gao Shengguan was willing to be mediocre and had no ambition, Li Guolou was silent for a moment, thinking about Gao Shengguan's words.

How many people are willing to endure the torments of the years, like he is obviously rich and rich all his life, and can live like a gentleman, but he still wants to soar, and is unwilling to slowly accumulate wealth, but takes a shortcut, to marry a few older ladies, just for the primitive accumulation of wealth.

Although Gao Shengguan knows that he will not be poor in the future and can live a prosperous life, it is impossible to get Gao Qiuyu's large wealth, as long as Gao Xiuxiu is alive, he will be a child of Gaojiazhuang in his life, Li Guolou smiled at Gao Shengguan again, smart people will not be willing to be mediocre, Gao Shengguan covets Uncle Gao Qiuyu's wealth for a long time, and he sleeps and looks forward to the death of his uncle's family, as for Gao Qiuyu's two concubines, they are also in their forties, as long as Gao Shengguan will provide for them in the future, this family business will be in Gao Shengguan's pocket.

can even be like him, marrying a teenage lady as a little wife, Li Guolou imposed his dirty things on others, and degraded the high promotion to worthlessness in his heart.

"Master Gao, I heard that your hand is stretched out very long and has reached into the inner house, is there such a thing?" Li Guolou continued to ask unhurriedly.

Gao Shengguan smiled and said: "Captain Li, the girl is a piece, I will take a few small advantages, touch it a few times, how can I get it to the bed, men like to put gold on their faces, I am a cheap mouth, I don't believe you can ask those two girls, they are still ingots!" ”

Li Guolou grimaced and scolded: "The official who was promoted to be more serious to the official, stand up and talk back, he is still a scholar, do you know how to be polite, righteous and honest." He has long forgotten how he behaves, and being strict with others and lenient with himself is Li Guolou's code of conduct.

How dare Gao Shengguan stand and reply, "Plop." He knelt down and begged for mercy: "Wansheng knows that he is wrong, and asks the chief to punish him, and Wansheng is willing to ask his uncle for forgiveness, ask his aunt for marriage, and marry Xiaoxue and Xiaoling as his wife in the future." "Gao Shengguan is self-lowering, this is a hierarchical society, servants are not worthy of him, if Gao Qiu Yu wants Gao Shengguan to inherit the family business, he will not agree to this marriage, Gao Shengguan's move is to turn defense into offense, it depends on where Gao Qiu Yu puts him in his mind.

Li Guolou is also a smart person, pretending to be confused, and said angrily: "Nonsense, Gao Shengguan, is it time to propose, your cousin Gao Xiuxiu's bones are not cold, no matter how much you drop, you will have to wait a year later." Li Guolou said, he was blushing and thick-necked, his heart was weak and cold, he was self-aware, what did he do to lack virtue, he knew in his heart that Li Guolou's family was prominent and made great achievements in arresting the rebels, why did the imperial court only reward him with a false title of nine-rank official, it was not that he had a disorderly private life and became a Sven scum.

Looking at Wei Nuo will only say, "Yes." Gao was promoted, Li Guolou gritted his teeth and did not let go: "Gao Shengguan honestly explained the relationship between you and the maid Aihua to this official!" ”

"Where to start with this, Wansheng and Aihua nodded to each other, her daughter rarely runs to the front yard, and I don't have a chance to use her brain." Gao Shengguan confessed innocently, and blurted out a poisonous oath to the sky.

Li Guolou was majestic like a general, and shouted: "The high promotion officer spread your two hands!" ”

Gao Shengguan was so shocked that he couldn't help but spread his two hands······

Li Guolou didn't ask the guards of the mansion, he was only interested in those tall people, especially for the three guards who didn't have time to witness at the time of the crime, so he asked and wrote down their names "Tang Meng, Roger, and Su Yelei".

Next, the senior staff continued to string "Gao Zhang's" into the door, a domineering look, looking like everyone was as arrogant as a lady, for this kind of daughter-in-law who has been boiling into a mother-in-law for many years, she likes the current family status, and the death of her stepdaughter Gao Xiuxiu is like her daughter is dead, Gao Zhang's did not show too much emotion in front of Li Guolou, nor did he say who he doubted, Li Guolou did not doubt her, and routinely asked a few words and sent Gao Zhang's away.

The maid Xiaoxue and Xiaoling were not yet eighteen years old, Li Guolou held back and didn't ask much, to what extent they and Gao Shengguan had developed, Li Guolou didn't ask, it was good to leave room for people, he was not interested in the bed.

Li Guolou only left the latter name on his notes, Gao Qiu Yu's second wife Gao Huang's, the first time he saw Gao Huang's, he felt that this woman could speak well, and a woman with a broken mouth would hook up, there was something secret in the high mansion, and he couldn't escape Gao Huang's slippery eyes, Li Guolou was hungry, drank the sixth cup of tea, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Huang, please take a seat!" ”

Huang Miaomiao is forty years old, with a plump figure, still pleasing to the eye, with a round face and blue cloth shoes, she did not avoid the eyes of the catcher like others when she entered the door, but turned her eyes and looked at Li Guolou shyly.

"Captain Li, how old are you!"

Huang Miaomiao's first sentence is like a matchmaker, Li Guolou is completely defeated, if Huang Miaomiao is trapped, Huang Miaomiao will introduce her seven aunts and eight mothers-in-law to him,
