This is the first time in all these years that Gao Pragmatic has met such an arrogant person!
I remember that Feng Bao was Li Guifei's favored eunuch, the chief ceremonial supervisor and the admiral of Dongchang. No matter how much he wanted to kill his uncle and nephew of the Gao family behind his back, at least he had to pretend to be polite when he was in front of him. Unexpectedly, a new steward of the Ministry of War would dare to ignore the majesty of the Xinzheng Gao family in this way.
Gao Pingshi laughed loudly, walked down the steps slowly, and asked with a smile: "You mean, you want me to give up my place?"
The butler was so embarrassed by Gao Pragmatic's laughter, but he had been following his master all these years, whether in Jiangxi or Guangdong and Guangxi, where he had not been praised to the heavens. He was used to being public, so he had never met Gao Pragmatic. The person who obviously didn't intend to give face could not help but straighten his face and his voice became colder: "Why, my master can't ask you to be a filial and honest person and make way for me?"
Gao pragmatically said calmly: "If we meet on the street and your master plays the avoidance card, there is nothing to say. He is a minister and I am just a minister, so naturally I have to avoid it. However, in this Buddhist temple, there is no shelter from the rain. , there is no regulation in the country about who to avoid."
The butler's face became even more ugly. He stared at Gao Pragmatic for a while and said coldly: "Then don't regret it!"
Gao Pragmatic waved his hand casually: "If you can express your position on behalf of your master, then I might as well say it directly. I will return your words exactly as they were said."
The housekeeper snorted angrily, looked around, and saw that all the members of the Gao family had evil looks on their faces.
As soon as he left, Liu Wei rubbed his hands excitedly and asked Gao pragmatically expectantly: "Mr. Gao, is there a fight?"
Gao Pangshi was thinking about what to do next. When he suddenly heard his question, he couldn't help but be startled. He thought to himself: He is the Minister of the Ministry of War, the immediate boss of the generals of the country. You are just sitting in a small school in Nanjing. It's a shame. Dare to hit him? I probably won't die if I hit him, but you can still survive if you hit him?
Before he could answer, Liu Xin had already stopped her eldest brother who was bent on fighting: "Brother, why are you so crazy! Master Gao is naturally not afraid of him, but you are just a pawn under his command. Do you want to rebel by beating him?"
"Oh... that's true." Liu Wei sighed, looking unhappy: "Looking at the appearance of his butler, you can tell that this guy is not a good guy, and he can't actually fight him. It's really unlucky!"
Liu Xin smiled and said: "Brother, what are you in a hurry for? Mr. Gao has his own opinions, just watch it."
Gao Pinggong said sincerely: This girl actually learned how to provoke... But this time she can make you proud.
He made up his mind and smiled slightly: "Ms. Liu thinks highly of me. I'm just a civil servant. I don't have any opinions. I just feel that everything can't escape a rationale."
Liu Xin smiled slightly, but said nothing more.
However, Gao Jingshi waved to Gao Jue and called him to him. He said a few words to him, and Gao Jue nodded repeatedly and took the order.
Gao pragmatic tilted his head, intending to think about whether he had missed anything, but unexpectedly, the white-faced eunuch who had been seen in the main hall ran out, nodded and bowed to Gao pragmatic and said: "Gao Guan... Mr. Gao, my two young ladies Let the younger one go back and ask why the servants who took them back to the house haven't come yet, and they said that since Mr. Gao is here, no one can offend them, do you think?"
Gao Pingshi thought to himself: I have something to do right now, and these two mysterious little girls come to join in the fun. It's really troublesome. But forget it, anyway, a sheep is watching, and a group of sheep is watching, and I didn't intend to give it to Ling Yun. With Yi's reputation, it doesn't matter if I pay more attention to these two little girls. What's more, judging from the tone of their conversation, these two little girls always seem to have something to do with me. Could it be that they are the nieces of an old friend of my third uncle?
After thinking about it, Gao Pragmatic's response was not slow, and he nodded solemnly: "I understand, go ahead."
The eunuch said quickly: "Don't worry, I will come back as soon as I go, it won't take long."
Gao Pragmatic said "hmm" and said nothing more.
But it was said that Ling Yunyi's housekeeper ran out in a hurry, and did not look at the servant Gao Pingshi who stayed at the gate. He ran to a team of more than two hundred people and walked to a large sedan chair with twelve carriages. With a sad and indignant face, he said: "Master, this Buddhist temple has not yet been completed. Only the main hall has been covered, but there is a new man Xiaolian who calls himself Gao and takes a few servants to take shelter from the rain. The younger one saw that he was already leaving. So I told him that the military master had come all the way to take up his new post, and the time was urgent. I asked him to give in. Who knows...who knows..."
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be hesitant. What are you afraid of?" A majestic voice came from inside the twelve-carriage sedan, and his tone was quite impatient.
"Yes." The butler looked like he was about to cry: "That filial piety is extremely rude. He said that this is a Buddhist temple and it is not official. Let alone the Minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Guo Ge came here in person. , he still refused to let me go! He even said..."
The voice in the twelve-carriage sedan chair was not only louder, but also extremely stern: "What else can you say?"
"You also said, 'Today you are the Minister, but I will not be the Yuanfu tomorrow'! Master, this person is really rude!"
The person in the sedan laughed angrily: "Isotori Gensuke? Haha, what an Idori Gensuke! It seems that Honbu Hall really met a luxurious person today. Well, Honbu Hall will give this Isori Gensuke a To save face, come and meet him in person!"
The curtain of the twelve-carrying sedan was suddenly opened. The butler sneered, but lowered his head and quickly handed over a brocade stool. A long-bearded old man wearing a red silk flying fish suit came out of the sedan. He got off the sedan chair and stood up on the brocade stool. He glanced at the gate of the Buddhist temple coldly, waved his hand expressionlessly and said: "Go, bring this 'different day Yuanfu' to the Honbu Hall. The Honbu Hall will come out today." I just want to have a good look at Yuan Fu’s style.”
A middle-aged man in his forties stood next to the sedan carrying the sedan, clasping his fists and saying, "Yes, Bu Tang!" Then he turned around and shouted to the people behind him: "Master Bu Tang has an order: attack the Buddhist temple. , arrest that person and come out to question him!"
"Here! Got the order!"
It turned out that among the more than 200 people who accompanied him, there were actually more than 100 who were dressed as armed servants, and all of them carried knives and armor, and some of them also carried blunderbuss.
When the master of the department saw them charging in with blunderbuss, he felt moved and shouted again: "Wait a minute!"
Everyone stopped quickly, and the housekeeper said anxiously: "Master, if you lose your prestige now, I'm afraid there will be some gossip in the capital..."
The master of the department glared at him: "The department wants you to teach?" Then he snorted coldly: "It's just that that person is a traitor after all. He can teach him a lesson, but killing him can't! You leave the blunderbuss behind, and you can't.
Don't use knives or guns on him, just bring him!"
The housekeeper asked unwillingly: "What about...his servants?"
"Do those people also have fame?" the minister said coldly.
The butler understood and winked at the head servant, and a group of people immediately shouted and headed towards the Buddhist temple.
