Mr. Gao Ge's return to Beijing this time gave many officials in the capital the feeling that it was like a storm was about to come and the wind filled the buildings, and like dark clouds were pressing down on the city to destroy it. Therefore, officials in the capital, as long as they have some status, no matter how they performed before,
At least today, most people choose to come to greet them. After all, no matter what, being polite is no worse than being rude.
Perhaps because he heard the roar of people in front of him, Gao Qingshi quietly lifted the corner of the car curtain and took a peek. He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a burst of joy in his heart. He turned around and said to Gao Gong with bright eyes: "Uncle San."
, there are many red-robed officials here!" Regardless of Gao Gong's answer, he poked half of his head out of the car curtain and added: "Oh, there are also a group of people wearing blue robes and green robes." Gao Gong sat still, just smiled slightly and said: "Those in red robes are my colleagues and subordinates of the fourth rank and above; those in green robes are only eight or nine ranks, and I think they are all concubines from the Hanlin Academy."
, as well as my subordinates when I was in the Imperial College; as for those in green robes, they are fifth, sixth, and seventh grade, and most of them are probably the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate... Hey! Are they coming to welcome me too? I'm afraid they are.
Let’s see which way the wind is blowing. Don’t think about the situation I was in more than a year ago. It was all thanks to them!”
Gao Gong's words were not without purpose. Recall how miserable his situation was at the beginning. It could be said that he was betrayed by his relatives and his reputation was ruined. But at that time, the trend of Qi Kang's case was completely out of control. Continuing to get entangled with Yan Lu would not help the matter at all, and would only implicate him even more.
So many times that even the emperor who protected him would suffer a loss of reputation. So Gao Gong had to submit his resignation for the last time, no longer making any excuses for the various crimes he was accused of, only saying that he was seriously ill and requesting to resign.
At that time, the emperor was greatly frightened when he saw the stranger. He asked several people around him: "Is Mr. Gao really sick?"
"I took the risk to visit him in person, so I had to say: "Please ask the imperial doctor to treat you." Sending the imperial doctor was not enough, so he also sent people to reward Gao Gong, hoping to comfort and retain Gao Gong.
But this time Gao Gong was determined not to suffer any more, and insisted on going. Only then did the emperor realize that he could not stay, and he approved in despair. His mood was so bad that day that even the harem was spared - for being exposed to the outside world
For His Majesty the Emperor, who was nicknamed "Little Bee", this was a very sad expression. Gao Gong's mood at that time may have really felt "relieved". In order to resign this time, Gao Gong submitted resignation letters that were sufficient.
There are so many twelve lines, which shows how stalemate the tug-of-war between the Xu and Gao parties is.
Gao pragmatic knew from history books the tragic situation when Gao Gong left Beijing that day, so he had a rough guess about Gao Gong's mood when he returned to Beijing today. He was just like a child who had been looked down upon in his hometown when he was young, and always hoped that one day when he grew up
The mentality of returning home in fine clothes and feeling proud is similar.
In fact, Gao Gong left Beijing in despair that day. He was in such a state of despair that almost all his disciples did not dare to see him off because of their fears. Only one disciple named Wu Dui saw him off on a boat on the Lu River and said goodbye in tears.
Moreover, after this incident reached Xu Jie's ears, Xu Jie still hated Wu Dui (historical records say: "deep hatred"), and froze him in his original position for a long time and refused to be promoted. In addition, Gao Gong also
When he passed through a certain county on his way home, the local officials knew that he had resigned from office because he had offended the chief minister of the dynasty, Xu Jie, so they deliberately despised him. Not only did they not pay him a visit like ordinary high-ranking officials, they also deliberately found excuses to make things difficult for him and stayed for two days.
When Tian. Zuo asked about the reason, the official replied with a sneer: "This man has offended the imperial court. Do I have any reason to be polite to him?" With all these things, Gao Gong had tasted the taste of the hot and cold world all the way.
The dignified imperial master and minister of the cabinet have suffered so much grievance, and today they can finally stage a "return of the king". Gao Jingshi feels that with Gao Gong's upright and fiery temper, he can still make up his mind and choose to "do things", which is quite remarkable.
It's so rare. But this doesn't mean that he won't show some face to some people today, but this is something Gao Qingshi thinks it's best not to do.
Gao pragmatic thought to himself: "Historical books say that Gao Gong has a bad temper, and he never cares about the feelings of others when he speaks. I have started the 'trafficking' mode along the way. I have all the good words and deceived me all the way. I hope he will follow these
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, the ministers in the same palace should not make too much of a quarrel. But now listening to his tone, shouldn't he still take the opportunity to exude the aura of domineering king and shake off the majesty of the imperial master? This is not a good thing.
Idea, this aura has already scared a person to death, so don’t force this group of people who obviously still want to wait and see."
But the trouble is that Gao Wuzhi is just a six or seven-year-old child now, and many of his words obviously have no weight. He can only influence Gao Gong from the side, making him realize that "giving them a blow" is not only unnecessary, but also very likely to
Doing bad things will make it difficult for him to "do things" in the future. After all, although Gao Gong has a bad temper, he has strong principles. If he realizes this, I believe he will not act randomly.
Thinking of this, Gao Pragmatic did not hesitate and laughed quickly: "It's good to look at the direction of the wind. Looking at the direction of the wind shows that they may be subdued! Isn't this just what you hope, San Bo, and there is a chance to lead them to the right path?"
Let me see, after you get off the bus, San Bo, why not show them what it means to be a prime minister? No matter what they did at the beginning, you don’t care about them at all now! You know, these people may be very impressive on weekdays.
Face, but what does it matter to you now? If you don’t care about them, others will only say that you are magnanimous and noble. Who can be stupid enough to think that you can’t cure these people? But if you don’t care about them,
Not only will it make them feel at ease and feel grateful to you, but when you do things in the future, they will not jump out and make trouble when you do things; and you can also get a good name by the way, isn't it the best of both worlds and everyone will be happy?"<

Gao Gong was a little stunned, shook his head and said with a smile: "Am I a person who is greedy for fame?" After speaking, he subconsciously stroked his iconic beard, and said proudly: "But you are right to think so, now I am naturally
I won’t argue with them about old things. Hey, on the way, I heard this little eunuch named Chen Ju say that Hai Gangfeng was doing a great job in Yingtian. Xu Huating had a severe headache over the impeccable Hai Qingtian.
, I think there is still more to sing in this big drama of Yingtian Mansion! At this time, I don’t have time to fight with these people in front of me. These people who are pragmatic and eloquent, talk high-spirited and talk nonsense, that is the best, but we really want to let them
If you want to do something, I'm afraid most of the time you can only get in the way. So, these people are like knives, they can hurt others and themselves. If one day you are also an official in the government and hold great power, just
You must remember: the knife is very dangerous and can only be held by yourself, and you have to make sure you can hold it steadily. Do you understand the meaning of this sentence?"
Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "I probably understand a little bit."
"Well, it's good to understand a little bit. I'll explain this to you in detail later when I have time." Gao Gong nodded with satisfaction.
Before Gao Pingshi could say anything else, Gao Gong's smile suddenly faded, and the aura of love that his uncle had for his nephew suddenly disappeared, and the graceful and solemn aura of ruling the world quickly returned to him.
It turns out that the carriage has stopped.
Soon, the respectful voice of Chen Ju, the eunuch who delivered the order, came into the carriage: "Mr. Gao Ge, we are here! Mr. Li Ge, Mr. Zhang Ge, Mr. Chen Ge, and other ministers from various ministries have all come to greet you in person. Look...
”
"I know." Gao Gong's tone was extremely calm. After answering, he said to Gao Yingshi: "Pragmatically, come with me to meet these Gonggun princes who control the power of the world."
"Yes, Third Uncle." Gao Gong said pragmatically, but there was a sudden thought in his heart, and he secretly thought something was wrong. It was not because of stage fright and fear of meeting so many court ministers, but because Gao Gong's return to Beijing had such a great impact, but now the cabinet
Among the four bachelors, Zhao Zhenji is missing today. What does this mean?
It is said that Zhao Zhenji is from Xu Jie. Now that he is not here, does it mean that Xu Dang still has strong hostility towards Gao Gong? If this is the case, then I am afraid that after the third uncle returns to the cabinet, he may not be able to do things with peace of mind as he wishes.
Ah. Could it be that the previous mutual strife will continue? But... Zhang Juzheng is also a member of the Xu Party, so why didn’t he advance and retreat with Zhao Zhenji?
