Looking at the loyal and brave Hou Gaojie, Wang Chengen couldn't help but tremble. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After living for twenty-seven or eight years, Wang Chengen rarely felt scared and feared, except for the demon who destroyed him many years ago, Gao Jie was the second person who made him fearful. Thinking that the master on which he relied was the godbrother of the young man in front of him, who offended him, and that he could not please him no matter what, he felt powerless; thinking of his revenge plan that he never forgot day and night, and thinking that he could really step on the heads of others in the future, how could he give up because of a small loss?!

Wang Chengen, the most favored eunuch of the letter king Zhu Youzhen, a young talent who has always had eyes above the top, showed a stoic look on his face, and knelt down in front of Gao Jie with a plop, and silently pleaded guilty.

Wang Chengen's sudden relenting move startled Gao Jie.

In fact, Gao Jie didn't have a bad feeling for this Wang Chengen before, but this guy repeatedly despised, collided and embarrassed, so that he launched a counterattack today under his impulse.

The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were not like the later Qing Dynasty, when they had to call themselves slaves in the face of high and powerful people, and even in front of the emperor, they only called themselves ministers or micro-ministers. Gao Jie just found out that the letterhead was greasy, and under the anger, coupled with the influence of the overwhelming Qing court dramas in later generations, the words "bold minion" blurted out, which can be regarded as a great insult to Wang Chengen, but Wang Chengen was not ashamed or annoyed, but knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, can Gao Jie not be surprised?

Looking down at this young eunuch with extraordinary literary and martial arts, Gao Jie secretly wondered: "What the hell is this guy? Is he a masochist? As soon as Lao Tzu became powerful, he immediately became sick, this is unreasonable!"

Surprised, Gao Jie subconsciously wanted to help him up, stretched out his hand halfway, thinking of how much this guy had deceived him, so he retracted his hand again. He pondered for a long time before he snorted coldly and said: "I, Gao Jie, have always been kind to others, and I have a big belly, but it doesn't mean that I'm stupid, let alone being bullied! Oh no... It's my usual policy!"

Wang Chengen slowly got up from the ground, didn't care about the dust on the new robe he had just put on when he left the palace, and bowed his head respectfully and said: "Most of what Xia Guan Shicai said is the truth, but he is worried that the Marquis of Zhongyong and the prince of my family will be estranged, so he said a lie on one of the points, please forgive the Marquis of Zhongyong!"

Gao Jie was anxious to understand the truth, and said impatiently: "You don't talk about these useless things, let's talk about the point!"

Wang Chengen gritted his teeth, and still said in a low voice: "Marquis Zhongyong's eyes are sharp and discerning, this letter is indeed not written by my family King Xin, but by Lord Shoufu!"

When Gao Jie heard this, his anger swelled up, and he was about to attack, so he listened to Wang Chengen and then explained: "However, there is no intention to deceive the loyal and brave marquis, although this letter was ghostwritten by Lord Shoufu, but His Royal Highness King Xin was present at the time, and the content of the letter was all described by him personally. As I have said, if there is deception, there will be five thunderbolts from the sky!"

Seeing that Wang Chengen swore by what he said, Gao Jie felt a burst of sadness. originally thought that this letter was a conspiracy to divide him and Zhu Youzhen, but who knew that the truth still disappointed and saddened him. It seems that it is a fait accompli that Zhu Youzhen and the Donglin Party have walked together, and a crack has appeared between the two of them that cannot be smoothed. Perhaps, in the near future, this crack may well become a deep, insurmountable chasm that will no longer make them close to each other, or even turn into enemies.

The lonely Gao Jie no longer pursued Wang Chengen's thoughts, and after waving him away, he returned to the mansion with a gloomy face.

Everything that happened in front of the mansion, Ji Longfeng saw it in his eyes, and walked the rivers and lakes with Gao Jie for so long, he had never seen him so lonely, and he was anxious, so he ran to the backyard to inform the empty master.

When Shoufu Ye Xiang Gao returned to the mansion, he hummed a rare little song, and he seemed to be in a rather happy mood. The little song he hummed was the wonderful sound he heard on the painting boat when he went to Nanjing last year, passed by the West Lake in Hangzhou, and met the famous prostitute Liu Zihua. After returning to Beijing, he would feel good every time he recalled that rare lucky encounter and the wonderful sound of a beautiful woman. It's just that today's good mood is completely different, which comes from the further development of the relationship with Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and is a kind of joy of political success.

After struggling all night, Zhu Youzhen called Ye Xianggao early this morning, expressing his acceptance of his advice, deciding to refuse Gao Jie's request, and also asked him to write a letter for Wang Chengen to send to Gao Jie's mansion.

Although Zhu Youzhen did not turn his face with Gao Jie in person, being able to do this is already commendable in Ye Xianggao's eyes, and it is worthy of Lao Huai's relief. He didn't have any ill feelings towards Gao Jie, but since this kid chose to get close to Wei Zhongxian and his ilk, he naturally became the opponent and political enemy of the Donglin people. can have the opportunity to separate the relationship between His Royal Highness King Xin and Gao Jie, Ye Xianggao is of course happy to see it.

Thinking of Gao Jie's ugly expression when he received the letter, when Ye Xianggao stepped into the bedroom, the minor tone he hummed became more and more high-pitched and bright, and his body over sixty years old had a rare sense of impulsiveness, ready to make love with Lan Xiang, the concubine of Xinna last year.

Unexpectedly, Lan Xiang was not in the room, so Ye Xiang was disappointed, and he was about to call someone to ask, but suddenly heard a low voice from behind the curtain next to the bed: "Lord Ye is so interested!"

When Ye Xianggao heard this voice, he immediately shuddered violently, and the lust full of love disappeared without a trace, and he hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Xiang Gao didn't know that Shaozun suddenly arrived, it's rude!"

Behind the curtain walked out a medium-sized, black-cloth-masked man, he walked to Ye Xianggao's big bed familiarly, sat down slowly, reached out and stroked the soft and smooth silk quilt on the bed, and said with a smile: "The futon on the adult's bed is extremely soft and smooth, I don't know which one can be better than your little concubine named Lan Xiang's delicate skin?"

Ye Xianggao saw that this mysterious person knew the name of his concubine well, and he was even more worried, and said with a smile: "Let Shaozun make fun of it!"

The man turned his head, stared at Ye Xianggao with blazing eyes, and said lightly: "I see that you are in a happy mood, isn't it because Shicai is writing for King Xin to refuse the matter of Zhongyong Marquis Gaojie?"

Unexpectedly, what happened in Ciqing Palace just now, this mysterious person had already learned that Ye Xianggao's forehead broke out in cold sweat, and he replied carefully: "Everything Xiang Gao has done is to follow the will of the lord, and there is no selfishness, please respect Mingjian!"

The man waved his hand and said, "I don't mean to question you, so why be nervous!

Ye Xianggao was surprised: "How can you say this, please make it clear to the young master!"

The man said in a deep voice: "Zhongyong Hou Gaojie is not an ordinary country boy, I'm afraid Lord Ye you all despise him." ”

Ye Xianggao frowned and said: "He is just a small hunter from a remote village in Shaanxi, because of the chance to rescue His Royal Highness King Xin, so as to obtain a fortune, Xiang Gao, Lord Zhao, Lord Sun and others all think that it is irrelevant, could it be that our vision is wrong?"

The man seemed to sense the suspicion in Ye Xianggao's words, he smiled, he didn't mind, and said leisurely: "Needless to say, Gao Jie's performance in the bow shooting willow and the martial arts competition with the Mongols some time ago, yesterday's drama in the tongue battle against Sun Shenxing and Yang Lian in Ciqing Palace was not enough to attract your attention?"

Seeing that Ye Xianggao wanted to defend himself, the man snorted coldly and said, "Do you know where this Zhongyong Marquis disappeared for a month or two some time ago?"

Ye Xianggao was stunned for a moment, and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

The man said in a deep voice: "He went to Liaodong with Luo Sigong, went straight into the hinterland of the Jurchens with the Mongols, and turned Hetuara upside down, not only helped the Mongols recapture the Kangyur Bible, so that the Ming Mongol alliance was successfully formed, and it is said that he also killed a top Jurchen master, no matter how resourceful and skillful it is, it is absolutely not to be underestimated!"

Ye Xianggao opened his mouth and stood stunned on the spot, and only after a while did he say: "No wonder Luo Sigong and Gao Jie have disappeared for so long recently, it turns out that the Holy Lord secretly sent them to Liaodong!"

The man nodded and said, "It can be seen that this Gao Jie is not an ordinary person. Isn't it a bit reckless to make enemies with him before you fully understand him?"

Ye Xianggao wiped the beads of sweat on his head, and said continuously: "Xiang Gao is not thoughtful, he is indeed a little reckless!"

The man stood up, circled around Ye Xianggao, and then said in a low voice: "And today, in order to show your closeness to King Xin, you recommended yourself to ghostwrite that letter, if you are recognized by him, won't it officially push my Donglin Party members to the opposite side of Gao Jie? ! This is even more wrong and extremely stupid!"

Ye Xianggao was shocked, but he didn't dare to refute again.

Seeing such a humble appearance of Lord Shoufu of the Ming Dynasty, the man seemed to be quite satisfied, and then softened his voice and said: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to talk more, the key is to see if there is a way to remedy! Gao Jie, this person, not long after coming to Beijing, although he has a good relationship with Wei Zhongxian's nephews and nieces, does not mean that he is our enemy! If he has not fought for it, how do you know that he cannot become our ally? The Chu Party and the Zhejiang Party are even more terrifying!"

Ye Xianggao was depressed, and said pitifully: "Xiang Gao is old and faint, eager for quick success, it is really entrusted by the lord and the young master! ”

The man patted Ye Xianggao on the shoulder and comforted: "Now, our relationship with Gao Jie has not yet reached the point of life and death, there is still room for change, then Wang Chengen must have sent the letter to Gao Jie, you hurry up, and go to Gao Mansion in person after lunch, first, to explain that the next ghostwriting is the intention of the king, and it has nothing to do with you, and secondly, through meeting with him, touch the details and ideas, relieve the tension as much as possible, and find a way to use it for me, which is much more cost-effective than setting up an enemy!"
