Gao pragmatic accompanied Yu Tingzhu and Wang Shiqi to visit the garden. Naturally, he continued to call the maids and gardeners who had previously served as Princess Yongning's tour guide, and introduced them to the young masters one by one. They seemed to be very hospitable.
Among this group of people, the only ones who really know what will happen in Baiyulou today are Yu Tingyao and Wang Shiqi. The rest of the people were invited to accompany them - of course, their role is actually to be witnesses.
.
Since they didn't know the inside story, they certainly welcomed Gao Jingshi's thoughtful hospitality, and they didn't realize that Gao Jingshi was actually stalling for time.
This group of people wandered around for a long time, even before they could enter the White Jade Tower. They just walked around in the large courtyard, and a few people even composed poems impromptu. Of course Gao Jingshi knew what they meant, and he praised them very much.
So much so that they all thought they were the reincarnation of Li Bai and the reincarnation of Du Fu.
After all, this is the praise of the top six candidates, and you can brag about it for decades if you get it in the academy. For a while, even the disappointment of not being ranked was dissipated.
After just walking around the courtyard for a while, one by one in this group of people, they were all extremely satisfied with Gao Pragmatic, the owner who had no pretensions and was extremely enthusiastic. If he hadn't been concerned about the disparity in status, he would have wished to be his master.
That's good.
They were having fun, but Yu Tingyao and Wang Shiqi were anxious. More than half an hour had passed and they had almost finished visiting the huge courtyard. Why hadn't Governor Liu started?
Little did the two of them know that something happened with Liu Shouyou.
Liu Shouyou's previous itinerary was arranged like this: after discovering that Princess Yongning had left the palace, he immediately sent a large number of royal guards to wear casual clothes in addition to the flying fish robes, and "separate attacks" usually took multiple detours to Jianxinzhai.
"Big Park" awaits orders.
Then he gathered together Yu Tingzhuo, Wang Shiqi and these scholars who planned to serve as "witnesses to catch rapes", and he accompanied them. Of course, the initiators of this "excursion" were nominally Yu Tingzhu and Wang Shiqi, and
Liu Shouyou just happened to drop by.
Since it was just a drop-in, Liu Shouyou made excuses to leave after arriving at Jianxinzhai Park. Yu Tingyao and Wang Shiqi went to lure Gao Jingjing while he went to gather the troops.
In Liu Shouyou's view, when things have reached this point, even if Gao Pingshi gets the news and knows that there are many Jinyi guards coming to Jianxinzhai, he has no way to "block" his own way in person, because he must consider the reputation of Shilin.
I can only accompany Yu Tingzhuo, Wang Shiqi and the others.
In this way, Liu Shouyou could show off his majesty as the Commander-in-Chief of the Jinyi Guards, intimidate the servants of the Gao family, and go directly to Jianxinzhai, especially the Baiyulou area, to search. This would avoid the possibility of Gao Pragmatic running into him early, and then having to
The danger of checking the driving ticket carefully - he does have a driving ticket in his arms, but it is a forgery and can only be deceived by laymen. How can he not reveal his secret in front of Gao Pragmatic, the former "Xiao Ge Lao"?
Even if you take a step back and say that this driving post can deceive Gao Jingjing, it may not necessarily work, because Gao Jingxing's identity is there. Not only is his family background special, but his status is also special. If he insists on meeting the emperor first,
Besides, if he forces his servants to resist, Liu Shouyou will also be done with it.
After all, Liu Shouyou really knows the strength of Jinghua, including the strength of Jian Xinzhai. If the opponent is determined to defend, he will not be able to attack it with the Jin Yiwei he has now able to fool.
As expected, Gao Jingshi went to accompany Yu Tingyao and Wang Shiqi. Liu Shou was not wrong about this, but he did not expect Gao Mo, Gao Jingshi's "big housekeeper", to be so difficult to deal with.
In Liu Shouyou's opinion, this old guy might have a stubborn mind and decided that Liu Shou could not enter Xinzhai, let alone Baiyulou, without a driving notice. He kept saying, "I, the Gao family of Xinzheng, have been loyal and loyal for generations," and "Old
"Yuan Fu was given the posthumous title Wenzheng, and the world looked up to him." He even dared to say, "Jin Yiwei has come to my Jianxinzhai in large numbers. Is Yuan Fu willing to do so?"
In a word: What the hell do you Liu Shouyou think you are, how dare you come to see me and act wild! If you have the ability, why don't you break in and show me?
Liu Shouyou tried everything hard and soft, but Gao Mo just refused to give way. After a long delay, he finally had no choice but to take out the driving ticket and ask Gao Mo and his servants to give way in the name of the emperor.
, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences.
Gao Mo actually didn't know what Jin Yiwei's driving post looked like, but he believed in Gao's pragmatic judgment and knew that this driving post was definitely fake, so he hesitated for a moment and then said: I can't recognize your driving post.
But my master is in Baiyulou. He will definitely be able to tell the authenticity from the fake. I have to show it to him.
Liu Shouyou was furious and immediately refused, and threatened Gao Mo with "resisting and disobeying the decree". Unexpectedly, Gao Mo still refused to accept the offer, saying that without the master's approval, no one could do anything unless the emperor came in person.
Don't even think about breaking into Baiyulou privately. If you don't believe it, just give it a try.
You can't try it, and you can't try it in this life - just in this small place, on the high wall of the outer courtyard of Baiyu Tower, there are no less than two or three hundred poles of the famous Wanli style in northern Xinjiang.
The number of servants and guards blocked by the Jin Yiwei will be doubled, and they all carry guns on their backs. If there is a fight, only more than 400 people will come. The Jin Yiwei with only Xiuchun Dao as their weapon will probably be killed in two rounds of gunfire.
The whole army will be annihilated.
What the hell are you even trying?
The stalemate continued for a while, and the legs of the Jinyi guards who he brought were almost weak from fear. Liu Shouyoucai finally came up with a way, reluctantly took out the driving ticket from his arms, threw it to Gao Mo, and shouted:
"The driving notice is like an imperial edict. You should go and have it inspected by the High School Prime Minister in person. If it is even damaged in the slightest... you should know the consequences!"
Although Gao Mo is not young anymore, his strength is not as strong as before, and his skills have not become much worse. He took the driving post with a raised hand. However, he could not delay this time. Just as he was frowning and hesitating, Liu
Shouyou shouted again: "Why, you have to stop the Jin Yiwei from doing errands even though you have a driving license? Are you trying to make your master guilty of disloyalty?"
Gao Mo had no choice but to express his willingness to send it for examination and asked Governor Liu to wait for a moment.
Liu Shouyou had a cold face and didn't say a word.
However, as soon as Gao Mo left, Liu Shouyou was not polite at all. He pretended to look up at the time, his face sank, and he waved his hand: "It's already over time. Someone, knock on the door for me!"
Then he yelled at the servants of the Gao family: "If you don't get out of the way, you will bring trouble to your master! You know, if you hinder the Jinyi Guards from arresting and searching, you are guilty of conspiracy! Don't say that the Holy One will blame you, it will be your master."
Can you afford to be blamed?"
I don't know whether it was the Holy Emperor who was intimidating or the Master who was intimidated. As soon as Liu Shouyou said this, the servants of the Gao family hesitated. They all looked at each other and whispered to each other, not knowing what to do.
Liu Shou seized the opportunity and sent people to knock on the door. Unfortunately, this door was also an iron door, and the Jinyi guards had no siege equipment. How could they break it open with their flesh and blood? In the end, it was the Gao family's servant who opened the door.
Liu Shouyou and a group of Jinyi guards rushed in.
Although Liu Shouyou had never been to Baiyu Tower, he obviously had channels to get a general map of Baiyu Tower - Gao Jingjing had entertained guests at Baiyu Tower many times, and there were so many people who came that it was impossible to hide this. So.
Liu Shouyou quickly arranged a search mission and sent out more than 400 Jinyi guards to block the doors and search.
But the strange thing is that after the servants of the Gao family let them in, they neither stayed put nor dispersed in a hurry. Instead, they divided into several groups in a tacit understanding and followed the Jin Yiwei sent out by Liu Shouyou.
Liu Shouyou shouted and asked: "What are you doing, are you still stubborn?"
A head servant clasped his fists with a cold face: "Captain Liu, you broke into the residence of a third-rank official of the current dynasty before the driving certificate was verified. Can't we send someone to take a look? You should also know,
My husband is one of the richest men in the world. If someone takes away something valuable, will you be the one to pay for it, or will you be the one to pay for it?"
Before Liu Shouyou had time to answer, the head servant said again: "Looking at you, you probably don't want to pay compensation, but I certainly can't afford it, so I have to send someone to follow you. If you don't even want to do this
...Man will die for money, birds will die for food, and the little ones will have no choice but to offend."
Liu Shouyou saw that the head servant's face was as dark as water, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he couldn't help but shudder in his heart. He secretly thought: What kind of servant did Gao Jingshi find? This servant guarding the courtyard is probably not as murderous as the servants who serve at the border generals.
Not bad, did you follow him through the Battle of Annan?
Although Liu Shouyou calls himself a Confucian minister, after all, he does the job of Jinyiwei, and he still has this look. The guy in front of him is not an easy person to deal with at first glance. If he is pushed into trouble, God knows what he will do.
That's all, the key right now is to find the fourth princess. As long as we find the fourth princess, these little things are not worth mentioning. When the time comes, we will be pragmatic. Isn't it easy for me to deal with this mere servant of an official?
He turned around with a cold face, seemingly too lazy to care, but in fact he just acquiesced.
The head of the servants sneered silently, but he did not personally lead the team to monitor the search of the Jinyi guards. Instead, he stood not far behind Liu Shouyou and made a few gestures, and ordered the servants to follow the number of Jinyi guards in each batch.
And he divided the number of people on his own and followed them separately for surveillance.
Liu Shouyou refused to show weakness and turned around, but he was also a little nervous in his heart. He thought to himself: The Gao family's servants are so elite, they are even more powerful than I expected. If they weren't worried about bringing trouble to the master's family, and without the old boy to command them,
Isn’t this big thing going to go bad today?
After thinking about it, I became nervous about another thing: Fortunately, I made extra preparations and asked Mr. Yu and Mr. Wang to bring a group of scholars. Otherwise, if Gao Pragmatic had dealt with us people on the spot, he and the eldest princess would have been together.
Didn’t the news of the private meeting just get suppressed like this? After all, my driving post was a fake. He then claimed that he didn’t realize it was me. With the emperor’s favor and trust in him, I’m afraid he wouldn’t blame him too much, right?
Thinking of this, Liu Shouyou couldn't help but feel scared, and broke out in a cold sweat.
But immediately he was no longer afraid, because Gao Jingshi and a group of scholars had already arrived in a hurry. Gao Jingshi, who was walking in front, had an angry look on his face and shouted from afar: "Captain Liu, you are so brave, how dare you take
Come to my Baiyu Tower to act wild with a forged driving notice!"
Liu Shouyou forced a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Why did the high school prime minister say this? Why is this driving post a forgery?"
At present, the eldest princess has not been found yet, so he naturally refuses to admit that the driving certificate is a forgery, and Gao Wuchen has no way to prove it anyway.
Who knew that Gao pragmatically sneered and asked: "Do you not admit it, Governor Liu? Okay, okay." Then he turned around and handed the driving post to Yu Tingyao, saying: "Brother Yu is Zhongshu Yinjun, so he naturally recognizes the driving post.
True or false...Brother Yu, could you please take a look and see if this post is true or false?"
Yu Tingzhu was shocked when he heard this, and thought something bad in his heart: Oops, this guy with the surname Gao is trying to trick me! If I tell him that this driving post is fake, then the Jinyiwei search will not go on. Now that the fourth princess has not been found, today's
Wouldn't it be a failure?
But if I say that this driving notice is true, it won’t work. Even if the Gao Pragmatic incident comes to light, my dignified Shu Yinjun actually mistakenly identified the driving notice, and this spread...
Yu Tingyao's mind was spinning, and he thought: Otherwise, I will admit that I have colluded with Liu Shou at that time. The so-called "admittance" is just a temporary expedient, in order to stabilize Gao Pragmatism? No, no, father
My lord has said that you must pick this matter out yourself, otherwise no matter how great your achievements are, there are hidden dangers inside...
In fact, the hidden danger that Yu Youding warned him about is very simple: you are a civil servant, and you are not a person like Jin Yiwei who specializes in special inspections. You dare to participate in such things as forging driving licenses. Do you still have court laws in your eyes?
This is where he is similar to Gao Pragmatic. When Gao Pragmatic engages in political disputes, whether he uses conspiracy or scheming, he always finds a way within the rules anyway. He will never "burn the boat" like Liu Shouyou today.
, because even if this "burning the boat" succeeded, he would still leave an impression of "not abiding by the law" in the emperor's mind.
This impression appears on Dongchang, the leader of Jinyiwei. Sometimes it may be excusable, but when it occurs on civil servants, it is much more troublesome. It is basically the same as the "criminal record".
If you are still of some use now, the emperor may not care about you for the time being, but once you are no longer of use, or if you make any other mistakes, then this "case record" will be brought out to settle the accounts together.
As a civil servant, you have to try your best to ensure that you are a perfect and loyal minister until something happens, so Yu Tingyao thought about it, but he still dared not say that the driving post was true.
He was holding the driving post like a hot potato, looking left and right, almost "checking" one stroke at a time, making everyone around him frown.
Is this thing so difficult to verify? How many times have you inspected it, Lord Shuyin, the Holy Treasure, and you still can’t tell whether it’s true or false?
Even Liu Shouyou was a little confused and thought to himself: What the hell is Yu Tingzhu doing? Just saying "This driving post is definitely not forged", being pragmatic can't stop anything?
How did he know what Mr. Yu was thinking, or how he knew that Mr. Yu Ge's idea was just to let him come forward to charge into the battle, but he had no intention of involving himself in it - not at all.
Forging the emperor's driving certificate and forcing his way into the civil servant's residence, Mr. Yu Ge didn't want to be stained by this kind of reputation. The reason why he asked Yu Tingyao to come was just to appease Liu Shouyou - anyway, Yu Tingyao was just here to visit the garden. When he encountered this
The incident was "purely an accident".
Only Gao Pragmatic was not in a hurry, and even his previous anger seemed to have dissipated a lot, and he waited patiently for Yu Tingzhu to identify the authenticity.
Yu Tingzhu delayed for a long time, and then said slowly but hesitantly: "It stands to reason that this treasure does not look like a forgery, but one of the marks is a little unclear, which makes it difficult... High School
Cheng, I suggest you wait until the matter is settled before taking it to the palace for careful verification, what do you think?"
Gao Pingshi was disdainful and thought to himself: Do you want to practice Tai Chi if you are ambiguous? Your method is not very good. It seems that you have to do it in person, so that's about the same.
Not only was he not angry, but he laughed: "Even Yu Yinjun said this, could it be that the Headquarters really made a mistake?"
Liu Shouyou breathed a sigh of relief, and did not bother to care about Yu Tingzhu's wrong attitude. He immediately said: "The Holy Master said in the letter, let the subordinates conduct a search, so that Gao Cheng can be treated fairly. I think Gao Cheng will treat him as a person."
, you will definitely not stop it, right?"
Gao pragmatic said calmly: "This is natural, Governor Liu just search slowly... Oh, that's not right."
Liu Shouyou became nervous again, and after finishing his work, he said: "High School Prime Minister, you..."
Gao Pragmatic smiled contemptuously and interrupted unceremoniously: "Hey, don't be anxious, Governor Liu. This department just wants to remind you: you don't have much time."
