Chapter 28 After the Clan

Gao Shilian's old house is a large courtyard with five entrances, but there are pavilions, towers, rockery, spring pools, and painted buildings, which are dazzling. This is the foundation of the noble family. Even if it has declined, its skeleton is still there. As long as one or two top talents are cultivated, they can rise again and continue their glory.

"This kind of house is probably worth hundreds of millions in future generations." Gao Bufan sighed secretly as he walked. Gao Kaishan looked worried since he stepped into Gao's house, and he seemed to be full of worries and did not seem to be interested in the architectural furnishings of this mansion.

Gao Bufan and his son followed Huang Cheng into the living room, and immediately met more than a dozen scrutinized gazes. They were all slightly surprised. What's going on?

Just as he was surprised, Changsun Wuji had already come forward first and said happily: "Brother Changqing is here, this person must be the Lord of the Lord. As expected, he is very powerful. The younger generation Changsun Wuji has met the owner of the high court."

"Young Master Changsun, please be polite!" Gao Kaishan quickly bowed his hand and glanced at Gao Bufan in confusion: "Changqing? When did Fan'er change his name?"

Gao Bufan smiled dryly and said, "It was the child who took the word "blind" by himself, but Mr. Changsun took it seriously."

Gao Kaishan nodded and said, "Well, you have obtained a good job. From now on, Fan'er's word "可以" will be called Changqing. Just take you as your father. It's just that my father will save trouble!"

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but smile and said to himself, "As long as you have a father, you have a son."

Changsun Sheng laughed and said, "Now I finally understand why Mr. Gao is so open-minded and free at such a young age. It turns out that the owner of Gao is also a person who is not particular about the details."

Everyone present laughed kindly.

Gao Kaishan hurriedly saluted and said, "This must be General Changsun, who is famous for the Turks. Gao Kaishan is the grass-roots, and pay homage to General Changsun."

Changsun Sheng smiled and said, "The high game owner is absurd. Everyone here is the original family of the Gao family of the Bohai Sea. I hope there is no abrupt way to the high game owner."

I dare not open the mountain and connect the road!

At this time, a tall and thin middle-aged man here stood up and smiled and said, "Good Master, don't you come here? I haven't seen you at Hongyan Tower for a while, but the dishes are not to your taste?"

This person's name is Gao Shihong, who is the big boss of Hongyan Tower. Gao Kaishan occasionally holds banquets in Hongyan Tower, so he had an intersection with Gao Shihong and knew that the other party was a descendant of the Northern Qi royal family, but the two could only be considered ordinary friends.

Gao Kaishan said, "It turns out that I am a senior official. I am so lucky. I am all good. But the horse farm is too busy and I have not even had time to enter the city. It is indeed a long time since I came to Hongyan Tower to help. However, Hongyan Tower is like a cloud every day. Gao Yuan goes out to make money every day. I don’t have more guests than me, and I don’t have less guests than me."

Gao Shihong laughed and said, "General Changsun, look, the owner of Gao is still so eloquent."

Changsun Sheng smiled and said, "Since Shi Hong knows Gao's game owner, that's the best. Please give me a guide to you."

"It should be like this!" Gao Shihong stroked his long beard and began to introduce: "This name is Gao Qian, whose name is Shilian, is from the lineage of the Qinghe King of Northern Qi, and is also the master of this. He is currently the governor of Taichang Temple."

"It turns out that he was Lord Zhililang, who was disrespectful!" Gao Kaishan bowed his fists and saluted.

Gao Shihong pointed to the elegant middle-aged man and introduced: "This is his own clan brother, Gao Shitai, the fourth imperial examination officer of the last year... This Gao Shizhen comes from the lineage of Zhao County Prince of Northern Qi."

Gao Shihong introduced the elderly Gao Shi tribe on the court, and then smiled and said, "Young people don't need to introduce them myself, let's get to know each other."

There were only four young Gao Shi tribe members present, probably all of whom were up-and-coming stars in the clan, otherwise they would not have had the chance to show their faces in front of Changsun Sheng.

Changsun Wuji enthusiastically introduced Gao Bufan. The four young Gao clan members were named Gao Junxian, Gao Dean Yuan, Gao Shixiong and Gao Shiheng. Among them, Gao Junxian was the oldest and seemed more steady; Gao Dean Yuan was the youngest, who looked gentle but a little arrogant, and didn't like to talk. Gao Shixiong and Gao Shiheng were brothers, as strong as two little tigers. The two brothers were also the most enthusiastic. They grabbed Gao Bufan and asked questions.

Gao Shiheng: "Brother Changqing, does your family run a horse farm?"

Gao Bufan: "Yes!"

Gao Shixiong: "Then you will definitely be able to ride a horse and shoot arrows?"

Gao Bufan: "Should you be a little bit!"

Gao Shixiong: "Brother Changqing is humble. My second brother and I also like to ride horses and shoot archery. My second brother's equestrian skills are better than me, but my archery skills are better than him. I will hit every shot within a hundred steps, and it is the best time to do it!"

Gao Bufan: "Brother Shixiong is amazing, I admire him!"

Gao Shiheng: "Don't listen to him bragging, he can't beat him in every possible way even if he steps 50."

Gao Bufan: "..."

Gao Shixiong's face turned red and he changed the topic and said, "Can Brother Changqing write a poem?"

Gao Bufan shook his head.

Gao Shiheng said happily: "It's great, my elder brother and I can't write poems either. How about I go to your horse farm to ride horses and shoot archery together tomorrow?"

Gao Bufan: "..."

Gao Qingyuan next to him suddenly interrupted, "If Brother Changqing doesn't know how to write poetry, I'm afraid I'll leave tonight."

Gao Bufanqi said, "How do you say this?"

Gao Deong was no longer talking, Gao Junxian and Changsun Wuji next to him were smiling but not talking. However, Gao Shixiong and Gao Shiheng looked like they were lacking in interest.

Several young people formed a circle and chatted there, and Changsun Sheng, Gao Kaishan and others were not idle either. At this time, Gao Shilian asked: "The owner of Gao's name is Gao, is it also a local family in Xi'e County?"

Gao Kaishan nodded and said, "It should be considered as it is. Although I moved to Xixian County more than ten years ago, my ancestors were indeed locals in Xixian County."

Gao Shilian hurriedly asked, "I don't know what the name of his ancestors are?"

Gao Kaishan replied: "I am the descendant of Gao Yan, the King of Langya."

"What!" Gao Shilian exclaimed in vain, while Gao Shihong and others looked at each other. Some even showed contempt and sarcastic expressions, obviously not believing it.

"Brother Changqing, it turns out that you are the descendant of Gao Yan, the King of Langya, a member of the Northern Qi clan?" Changsun Wuji said in surprise.

Gao Bufan looked at his father Gao Kaishan with a confused look on his face. He had never heard his father mention the King of Langya. In addition, who is the King of Langya? Is he very famous?

Gao Shilian hesitated for a moment and reminded carefully: "Gao Master, as far as I know, King Gao Yan has no descendants of King Langya, you are sure that you are really a descendant of King Langya."

Gao Shitai said sarcastically without hesitation: "When King Gao Yan of Langya was killed by the late Lord Gao Wei, he was only sixteen years old. All four of his lay children were imprisoned until death. It is impossible for him to leave his descendants. The owner of Gao was afraid that he would admit his mistake and kiss him."

Changsun Sheng frowned secretly. The reason why he invited Gao Bufan and his son to show his face in front of the Gao clan's relatives was to repay Gao Bufan's help that day, and to think that Gao Bufan was a talented person and wanted to win over him. Unexpectedly, his father's character seemed not good. In order to raise his identity, he even randomly recognized his relatives. Forget it, he actually claimed to be the king of Langya in Northern Qi, and ended up making a joke!

Gao Bufan frowned. He knew that his father Gao Kaishan was not the kind of person who was cheating and climbing dragons and phoenixes. It was absolutely impossible for him to recognize his ancestors in order to raise his own value. But why didn’t he hear him mention it before?

At this time, the living room was so quiet that it was heard, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward. Gao Kaishan said calmly: "You are afraid that you will not know anything. At that time, the later emperor Gao Wei favored the slander ministers and Shi Kai and others, which caused the court to be insufficiency, the administration was corrupt, the three armies were in ruins, and the country was in a state of decline. The king of Langya was young and brave, and he was extremely brave. He attacked the treacherous ministers and Shi Kai in anger, but was killed by the later emperor Gao Wei. The four lay sons were also imprisoned until death. However, people at that time did not know that one of the lay sons was rescued by a loyal servant and defected to Nanchen. They grew up and grew up. Thirteen years ago, Nanchen was destroyed by the Sui Dynasty, and this lucky man returned to his ancestral home, Qixiang County."

The Gao clan members here looked at each other again after hearing this. Gao Shilian coughed lightly and said, "Is it possible that the owner of Gao is the lucky one who escaped by chance?"

Gao Kaishan nodded, took out a simple jade pendant from his arms and said, "This is the token left to me by my mother back then. It has been kept by my loyal servants and was handed over to me when I became an adult."

Gao Shilian said solemnly: "Can you let me see it next?"

"It's all right!" Gao Kaishan handed over the jade pendant. Gao Shilian took it and examined it carefully, nodded and said, "That's right, this is indeed the object of the Langya Palace of Northern Qi."

Gao Shihong Gao Shitai and others hurriedly came forward to watch, and their expressions gradually changed. Gao Shizhen bowed to Gao Kaishan and said, "I dare to ask the owner of Gao, what is the name of the loyal servant who saved you? Where is now?"

Gao Kaishan replied without thinking: "His name is Gao Qijin. I usually call him Uncle Qijin. The year when Nan Chen was destroyed, he died of illness and could not return to his hometown."

"Gao Qijin?" Gao Shihong and Gao Shitai looked at each other. It was more than 40 years ago that the King of Langya was killed. They were both young at that time. I don't know if there was a servant named Gao Qijin in the King of Langya's mansion.

At this time, the oldest Gao clan here spoke. The man was named Gao Huan, who was 60 years old. After Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling, he recalled: "There was indeed a man named Gao Qijin in the Langya Palace. He was quite brave and his nickname seemed to be Ding Qianjin!"

Now there are both physical evidence and evidence, and everyone believes most of them. The eyes of Gao Kaishan and Gao Bufan involuntarily change and become more friendly.

As the saying goes, clan relatives, broken bones and connected tendons, and blood ties are always the things that can bring the distance closer. Gao Bufan could clearly feel that Gao's young men were closer to him, and even the little white-faced Gao Qingyuan, who was not very talkative, began to talk to him on his own initiative.
