Gao Jue was silent for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "I dare not forget the kindness of my father for a moment, but the eldest son must not forget. My slave contract is already in the hands of the pragmatic young master, and it was you who gave it to me."
"You!" Gao Wuzi was extremely angry. He didn't believe that Gao Jingshi would dare to use force. He just knew in his heart that Gao Gong loved Gao Jingshi deeply. With a change of thought, he suddenly transferred his anger to Gao Jue and pushed forward towards Gao Jue.
, raised his right hand.
Gao Jingshi was furious and shouted: "Gao Jue retreat, and the cavalry will protect the Lord!"
Gao Jue had gritted his teeth and was about to give Gao Wuzi a slap in the face, but when he heard Gao Wuzi's shout, he took three steps back without hesitation.
Gao Jue was a martial arts practitioner for many years and reacted very quickly, while Gao Wuzi was shocked by Gao Jingshi's shout just now. Although he immediately slapped him again, it was already too late.
The brainwashing education received by Gao Pragmatic's cavalrymen came into play at this moment. They had been shouting "eating the eldest master's food and obeying the eldest master's orders" for a year. After hearing the order of "cavalrymen to protect the master", several of them were separated.
The nearby cavalryman pressed his legs between the horse's belly and rushed directly to Gao Pangshi and Gao Jue to stand, pointing the Yanling knife directly at Gao Wuzi.
One of the cavalrymen even showed off his riding skills. The war horse rushed directly in front of Gao Wuzi, and he suddenly pulled the reins. The war horse neighed, raised its head, and stepped on the air with its front hooves, almost kicking Gao Wuzi.
.
Gao Wuzi was just a dude from Xinzheng. He had never seen such a scene before. He was so frightened that he took a few steps back, lost his balance, sat down on the ground, and screamed in fear.
It's a pity that in this era, the imperial power does not extend to the county, the clan power is extremely strong, and the social mindset has been formed. Gao Pragmatic does not dare to kill him, or even hurt him. Seeing that he is in such a mess and loses face, he can only
He ordered in a deep voice: "Stop!"
The cavalry in front of him actually took no further action after stopping Gao Wuzi. Therefore, in fact, only the cavalry surrounding the Gao brothers accepted this order. They stopped approaching and did not continue to narrow the encirclement.
At this time, the Gao brothers were almost frightened. The first one to react was Gao Wuben. He hurriedly took two steps forward, pulled Gao Jingshi and said: "Pragmatic, calm down, calm down... we are all our brothers,
Don't make a fuss over something like this, it will make everyone look bad - my father is recuperating in the county town, and if he knew about this, he would be very angry, so you should give Brother Yu some face, okay?"
Of course Gao Pragmatic also knew that it would not be good for him to make this matter worse - Gao Wuzi was a dandy at first. No matter how outrageous he did, he would be looked down upon by others. Anyway, if there are too many lice, there is no need to worry about too many debts. The shit goes into the pit.
, they all stink anyway.
But he was different. As soon as he came back from the capital, he had a quarrel with the eldest brother and wanted to use force. Even if it was the other party's fault, it would not be good for him if the matter spread.
People in this era have been brainwashed by the degenerate Confucianism. In their view, it is best for brothers and sisters to be respectful to each other, but if brothers are not friends, do brothers have to be disrespectful? So if there is a real quarrel, for Gao Pragmatic
Reputation will also have some impact - if you don't believe it, look through the classics and see how many stories spread in the world are about the protagonist being bullied and still insisting on "ethics"?
Although Gao Pragmatic is not the kind of person who would ask me if I want to continue when someone slaps me on the other cheek, but at this moment he weighed it up and decided to endure it for now - there is no other way, who can let himself
Don’t you have the strength to launch an attack on feudal ethics?
However, Gao Pragmatic looked back and thought: It seems that he has not suffered a loss, so I will let you go for now and let you know that I am not easy to mess with. If you still dare to live and die in the future, I will punish you later.
After figuring out the reason - no, after weighing the pros and cons, Gao Pragmatic walked downhill and said: "Brother, I am not making trouble for nothing, Gao Jue is already my sixth-family member, and he is working under me now, don't talk about him
Even if you didn’t make a mistake, you should be punished by me, right? I’m not afraid of this truth no matter what.”
What could Gao Wuben say? He could only say with a wry smile: "Of course that's the truth, but... you'd better evacuate the people first, this is not good."
"Since my brother has said so, how dare I disobey you?" Gao pragmatically nodded and waved his hand: "Withdraw."
The riders turned their horses and retreated slightly.
Gao Wuben was a little surprised when he saw that they were acting quickly and strictly following orders. He specifically interrupted and said, "Hey, pragmatically, you servants seem to have some skills."
Gao pragmatic saw what he meant and deliberately cooperated: "Brother has a sharp eye. These cavalrymen were trained by my younger brother, Ma Lanxi, the chief military officer of Datong."
Gao Wuben's eyes lit up and he asked: "Oh? Are you talking about General Ma Fang and Ma Zongrong, who defeated Chief Xin Ai with tens of thousands of cavalry outside Xinping Fort some time ago?"
"Exactly."
Gao Wuben immediately praised it.
Gao Wuzi had already climbed up at this time, his face turning green and white. He wanted to say a few harsh words, but was afraid that Gao Qingshi would get angry. He gritted his teeth for a long time before he finally said: "Okay, okay, you are going to fight with me, your eldest brother, for a domestic slave."
?”
Gao Pangshi sneered: "Brother, your memory seems really not very good. No wonder you can't study. Did I just give an order asking them to fight you? Why, if you want to beat my people, I will do this."
The master can't protect him anymore? I still say the same thing, don't say he didn't make a mistake, even if he made a mistake, I will punish him, and it's not your turn to teach him a lesson."
Gao Wuzi saw that everyone was looking at him, including Gao Wuben and Gao Mengnan, with dissatisfaction in their eyes. He also knew that he would not be able to please him today, so he suppressed his anger and sneered: "You are so young, you are so angry.
You have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. I don’t think you need to go to worship our ancestors this year.”
Gao Pragmatic's eyes turned cold and he said calmly: "The third uncle, the fifth uncle and my father are all here. Even if the third uncle and my father are far away, there is still the fifth uncle in charge of the Xinzheng family. If the fifth uncle also feels that I have done something wrong today,
Even if I am punished and cannot worship my ancestors, I will naturally accept the punishment."
As he spoke, he turned to Gao Wuben and said, "Brother, please tell the fifth uncle what happened today. Let him decide whether it is right or wrong and how to deal with it. In addition, I will go to the county town to see the fifth uncle in person tomorrow."
"
Gao Wuben smiled bitterly, sighed, and said, "I'll go to the county seat later. You... don't worry too much. My father is reasonable."
These words were a bit biased towards Gao Wuzi, so as soon as he finished speaking, Gao Wuzi snorted coldly, stared at Gao Wuben and said: "Okay, this brother is about to go to Beijing to become an official, so he is trying to please his brother.
.What a pity. You gave up the scientific examination and could only become a military attaché. I’m afraid you will always have to look at other people’s high...attendants’ faces in the future, huh!"
