Chapter 33: The Secret Hidden Under His Pillow
"When you ask for this king, you remember that you are the king's staff? So you have shown disdain for the position of a staff member several times before, can this king understand that you are trying to get away with it? ”
"I don't have ......"
"Since there is none, in your opinion, a person who never admits in his heart that he is the king's staff, what reason does the king have to listen to what he says?"
Gao Changgong's rhetorical question made Gu Zimo stunned.
"I ......"
Indeed, what Gao Changgong said was the truth.
He had never wanted to be his staff.
It was only when he was interceding for Gawain that he thought of using the position of a staff member to speak for Gawain.
But these didn't hide Gao Changgong's eyes at all.
Now, Gao Changgong asked him so clearly and openly, he had no way to quibble at all.
Right now, Gao Changgong said with a golden mouth.
If he didn't think of a way, Gawain would definitely be kicked out.
Although Gu Zimo had some bitterness about Gao Wen before, Gao Wen was the only one in this palace who cared about him the most.
If even Gawain is gone, how will he live in this huge palace in the future?
Looking at Gao Changgong's peerless face, Gu Zimo took a deep breath and seemed to have made a difficult decision, "I am willing to be punished instead of Mr. Gao, you can punish me for anything, as long as you take back your life and let Mr. Gao stay!" ”
A little afraid that Gao Changgong would not believe his words, Gu Zimo hurriedly added: "What I said is serious, not perfunctory!" ”
"Whatever you want?"
"Yes, you can do anything!"
Gao Changgong's calm eyes flickered faintly, and the smile on the corner of his lips became a little thicker, "If this king wants you to stay by this king's side willingly, you will also agree?" ”
"Does my willingness matter?" He didn't agree to be this staff member before, and Gao Changgong also used his power to oppress him to be this staff member.
And now he wants him to be willing?
He's pretty weird.
It's not the love between a man and a woman, what do you want to be willing?
The smile on the corner of Gao Changgong's lips disappeared a little, and his cold face became a little more serious, "If this king says it is very important, what should you do?" ”
"I ......"
If he told Gao Changgong now that he was willing to stay, would Gao Changgong believe it?
Even if Gao Changgong believed it, he wouldn't believe it.
He didn't want to leave this cage and return to freedom.
"Having said so much, you are actually playing tricks on me at all, you know that I will not be willing to be your staff, but here you use this to ask me to exchange for the high manager to stay, don't you think you are despicable?"
"Nobody wants you to be nosy."
"You think I'm so ruthless as you? Mr. Gao is also an old man beside you, who has been with you for so many years, conscientious and diligent, and I dare not say how much credit there is, but I can't be guilty of being expelled from the house by you after saying a few words, right? He's his age, what are you going to do when you let him out of the palace? ”
Gao Changgong looked at Gu Zimo indignantly, without words, just standing silently aside.
"That's it, a ruthless person like you is not worthy of letting Manager Gao be loyal to you, so let him go. And I, too, hereby formally resign from your position as a staff member, and I have nothing to do with you in the future! If you want to blackmail my family to embarrass me once, you can do whatever you want, my Gu Zimo will be a good man again in eighteen years! ”
Gu Zimo was very angry, glared at Gao Changgong, and after saying these words fiercely, he turned his head and left.
He didn't care if Gao Changgong agreed or not.
Anyway, from now on, he is no longer his staff.
In the future, he will have nothing to do with Gao Changgong.
It feels good to remove all the shackles in my heart......
It's just that his father and mother, if he is really affected, he can only hope that he will be filial piety in the next life.
After Gu Zimo's angry figure left little by little until it completely disappeared from Gao Changgong's sight, Gao Changgong's lowered eyes opened slightly, but there was an unusually soft look in his originally cold and unwarm eyes.
Gu Zimo didn't want to take advantage of King Lanling.
When the staff wears all the things he wears, he takes them off and places them in the room.
When he left the 'Mo' Garden, he was only wearing the blue linen robe on the day he came to the Lanling Palace.
Stripped of his luxurious satin clothes, he felt extremely relaxed.
Step by step, I walked in the direction of the gate, and I didn't meet anyone along the way.
Gu Zimo was actually still a little apprehensive in his heart.
Maybe Gao Changgong will order someone to take him down before he leaves the gate of the palace.
After all, this is his Lanling King's territory, and no one can stop him if he wants to cover the sky with one hand.
"Zimo Gongzi ......"
Just when Gu Zimo was apprehensive and his steps were getting faster and faster, Gao Wen's breathless panting voice came from behind him, "Zimo Gongzi...... Please stay ......"
Gu Zimo turned his head and looked at Gao Wen, who was carrying the hem of his robe, wiping his sweat, and said, "Young Master Zimo, where are you going?" ”
"Where can I go? Naturally, it is to leave this hellish place. ”
Gu Zimo said angrily, seeing that Gao Wen was still dressed as a manager, he frowned, "Anyway, you and I are going to leave here, why don't you leave together, I'll wait for you to change your clothes, and let's leave together." ”
"Childe, why don't you have to leave in the next place, but you are leaving? This...... Why is that? Gao Wen looked at Gu Zimo's angry appearance, and he was really a little puzzled.
"You don't have to go?" Gu Zimo looked at Gao Wen suspiciously.
"Yes, you don't have to leave the palace in the next place. His Royal Highness was extraordinarily generous for some reason to withdraw his order, and allowed him to continue to serve as the chief steward, but he was only fined for the next three months......"
"Really?"
When he pleaded with Gao Changgong just now, Gao Changgong reflected, it was clear that he would not be accommodating at all, and there was no room for maneuver?
How could he be so good at kung fu that he would take back his life?
"Of course it's true, how can you joke with Childe about this kind of thing?"
Seeing Gao Wen's sincere face, Gu Zimo believed it.
It seems that Gao Changgong is still an understanding person.
After all, Gawain has helped him manage the affairs of the mansion for many years, if he suddenly lets Gawain leave, will the mansion not be chaotic?
It seems that he is blindly worried.
Maybe he didn't intercede, Gawain wouldn't have been driven away.
"You can stay, because you are capable, which shows that he is not so incorrigible."
"Zimo Gongzi's words are wrong, there is never a shortage of capable people around His Royal Highness, and when he leaves, there will be someone who does better than him...... And the reason why you can stay is all the credit of your son, if it weren't for your intercession, how could Your Highness open the net......"
"I don't have that much face. He left you and had absolutely nothing to do with me. ”
"Zimo Gongzi, in fact, His Highness ...... him"
"Actually, what is he?" Seeing that Gao Wen wanted to speak and stopped, Gu Zimo was aroused by curiosity.
Gao Wen's expression was unnatural for a moment, and soon, he skillfully dissolved it, looked at Gu Zimo's dress, and hurriedly said to Gu Zimo: "Zimo Gongzi, why did you change into this dress?" ”
"It's not that I thought you were leaving, so I'm going with you." Gu Zimo glanced down at the coarse linen clothes on his body, which really did not match the majesty of this palace.
"Zimo Gongzi, you can't leave anymore, are you ...... too?"
Speaking of which, if he could not tear his face with Gao Changgong, he would naturally want to maintain such a superficial peace.
At least you don't have to bother your parents.
But when he thought of Fang Cai's cruel words to Gao Changgong, Gu Zimo's scalp was a little numb.
Will Gao Changgong hold a grudge against himself and be detrimental to his parents?
Thinking of this, Gu Zimo hurriedly asked Gao Wen: "There will be almond crisp in the dining room, right?" ”
"Childe is hungry?"
"Forget it, I'll go see it myself."
Gu Zimo said and ran in the direction of the dining room.
After a while, Gao Wen saw Gu Zimo walking towards him with a plate of almond crisp, and asked him, "Is Your Highness in 'Gongyuan'?" ”
"Yes, yes......"
Gao Wen's words fell, and he saw Gu Zimo turning around with the almond cake and turning around in the direction of 'Gong Yuan'.
As if suddenly reflecting something, Gawain's face was full of smiles.
"Zimo Gongzi, I've finally opened my mind......"
Gu Zimo stood under the plaque of the word 'Gong', let out a long breath, and encouraged himself in his heart: "Gu Zimo, it's okay, you dare to tear your face with him, now it's just a matter of making peace with him, what's so difficult!" Besides, if you don't hit the smiling person, Gao Changgong will definitely not hit you! ”
Stretched out his hand and lifted it, and was about to knock on the door, but found that the door was not closed tightly, and through the gap, he saw that there was no Gao Changgong in the house.
"Not there? Gao Wen said it clearly......"
If he doesn't care, then he will go in and wait for him to come back.
Gu Zimo stretched out his hand to push open the door and walked in.
It's very different inside than the last time he came.
The tents on the couch were all new, and he suddenly remembered that Hu Luxue had stayed here for the night that night.
Wouldn't it be because Hu Luxue slept here for one night and went out of her way to replace all the decorations in the entire house?
The idea was quickly validated.
The pillows and mattresses on the couch are all brand new......
Good guy, Gao Changgong, this is too weird.
However, I have to say that the new mattress on this couch looks very soft, which makes Gu Zimo want to lie down and experience it.
Glancing at the door, Gu Zimo's courage suddenly increased, anyway, he would not be here, even if he rolled on his couch, he didn't know.
Just rolled around 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 cheat?
Gu Zimo's curiosity was instantly full, if it was really a martial arts cheat, he would have picked up the treasure.
Excited, his hands shaking a little as he untied the straps on the scroll.
It's just that when the scroll is opened, there is a portrait inside the scroll-
Gu Zimo was dumbfounded on the spot.
Why is this portrait so familiar......
No, it's more than familiar.
The person in this portrait is clearly ...... Gu Zimo himself!
Gao Changgong has nothing to do, what is he doing under his pillow?
