Hope for luck

Chapter 153
Du Xiangwan never thought that his original impeachment case would become a court push, and it was not for an official like him to control who could sit in the position of chief assistant.

Moreover, the final result of Ting Tui was also beyond his expectation. The elder of the two dynasties who was originally the Sejong Dynasty was about to return again.

Many officials are familiar with Dong Pingzhang. He is full of courage and supports the entire Qingliu. In addition, he has served as the examiner of Chunwei several times, and his disciples can be said to be all over the court and the public.

Only one person proposed to let Dong Pingzhang be the chief assistant, and one after another was seconded, which is enough to see the prestige and reputation of Dong Pingzhang.

And this matter seemed to be within Emperor Tianfeng's expectations, so he didn't ask any more questions about the other candidates, and directly waved his hand, asking Dong Pingzhang to return to the court for discussion.

He was bestowed the title of chief assistant minister of the Fuzheng Pavilion, the crown prince and grand master, and a bachelor of the Fuzheng Pavilion.

As for Du Xiangwan's impeachment, Emperor Tianfeng didn't take it seriously, and asked the auxiliary government cabinet to supervise it. This was a task for the reinstated Dong Pingzhang.

And many ministers felt the change in Emperor Tianfeng's attitude, and began to wonder whether to move closer to Dong Pingzhang.

The change in the atmosphere in the court was even more unexpected to Du Xiangwan. He originally thought that the deal between Gao Qiyuan and the former chief assistant Liao Jie would definitely make Emperor Tianfeng fly into a rage after hearing about it, and then thoroughly investigate the matter. , even the Gao family, who is a noble family, had to bow their heads and plead guilty!
This was his original idea, and he also felt that he would definitely receive the support of many people in the court, but everything at the moment has seriously exceeded his expectations.

……

"Asshole, the local gentry, that is the foundation of the local foothold, even if it makes trouble in the court, the emperor will favor these gentry, not you, understand?"

In the study room in the front yard of Gao's mansion, only Gao Qiyuan reprimanded him angrily.

Under Gao Qiyuan, Gao Qibai was sitting, and Gao Pan was standing in the hall at the moment. Gao Qiyuan's words were for Gao Pan to listen to.

Although Gao Pan had been prepared for a long time, after Gao Qiyuan found out about this matter, he would ask him to inquire, but he didn't expect that when he came up, he would scold him head-on and face-to-face.

This made Gao Pan originally disliked Gao Qiyuan, but now he couldn't bear it anymore, straightened his waist, and said loudly:

"The nephew wants to ask my uncle, if this class of gentry and aristocrats have been here, how will the local people survive? In a few decades, all those fields will probably fall into their hands. Rebellion, as an official of the court, I don't know how to share the worries of the emperor, but I want to please the gentry, so who is this official for?"

After hearing this, Gao Qiyuan's face instantly turned livid, and he pointed at Gao Pan with trembling fingers and said:

"You... You undisciplined thing, is this your attitude when talking to me, an elder? Come, drag him out, and beat him twenty times!"

Seeing this, Gao Qibai on the side changed his expression greatly, and quickly got up to persuade:
"Brother, brother Pan is only expressing his own opinion, and he didn't show any disrespect to you. It's better not to use family law!"

Gao Qiyuan glanced at Gao Qibai, widened his eyes and said:
"Confused, no rules and no rules. Look at him. He still treats me as an elder. Today, I will teach him a lesson. Although the fifth brother is no longer alive, it doesn't mean he has nothing to do with him!"

When Gao Pan heard this, his heart began to beat, and he said with a gloomy face:

"Even if Uncle hit me, things can't be changed. Apart from showing off his prestige at home now, when Uncle went to see Liao Jie, why didn't he think that today would happen? Even if it wasn't for my nephew, I offended the Du family. I am afraid that people will still mention this matter in the future, this is where the disaster of the Gao family lies, but you, uncle, only scold the younger generation, don't you?"

After saying this, Gao Qibai was also stunned, staring at Gao Pan stubbornly, he had already forgotten to remind Gao Pan not to be so aggressive anymore.

After Gao Qiyuan heard this, his face suddenly changed drastically. Although he was still very angry, he restrained his anger and asked in a deep voice:
"How did you find out?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Pan looked at Gao Qibai and said calmly:

"If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing about it yourself. If you want to know about this right now, you only need to inquire a little bit, and you will know. Uncle, don't you think that there is no wall that is not leaky?"

After hearing this, Gao Qiyuan began to walk back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back. After a while, he lowered his voice and said:

"Then what do you think we should do about this?"

Gao Qiyuan's sudden change of attitude surprised Gao Pan. He thought that today's beating was inevitable.

This is the way of etiquette at this time, the elders and juniors are justified, especially parents educating their children, there is nothing to question.

Gao Pan's parents are gone, Gao Qiyuan, as his uncle, already has the right to discipline him, not to mention, the Gao family is still headed by him.

However, at this moment Gao Qiyuan suddenly asked Gao Pan, which made Gao Pan a little unexpected.

After thinking about it, he said solemnly:
"The key to this matter is actually the identities of my second brother and I. As long as it conforms to the rules of the imperial court, the second master Du may have nothing to do. In addition, the uncle must deny that he once went to Liao Jie. As far as my nephew knows, Liao Jie, the former chief assistant, has reached the point where everyone pushes him down, if the emperor didn't remember his old love, he might not end well!"

After Gao Qiyuan heard this, he looked at Gao Pan in shock, as if it was the first time he knew Gao Pan.

Is this still the taciturn and dull Gao Pan?
Gao Qiyuan had deep doubts in his heart, Gao Pan at this moment was like a different person!
And Gao Pan's content was enough to surprise him, especially Gao Pan knew everything about Liao Jie clearly.

"Liao Jie's matter, my nephew went to inquire about it. It is not a secret matter. During the years he served as the chief assistant, he practiced nepotism, bent the law for personal gain, and was corrupt. He knew that his fate was over, so he hurriedly sued the emperor himself, so he couldn't save the evening festival!"

Gao Pan seemed to see the doubts in Gao Qiyuan's heart at the moment, and then said slowly.

After Gao Qiyuan heard this, he and Gao Qibai looked at each other. There was a bit of surprise in their eyes. For some reason, a hint of surprise flashed in Gao Qibai's eyes.

"If it's true as you said, I shouldn't have gone to him before. It's just that your second brother is idle every day, so I have to find a way for him, but I didn't expect it to be a big disaster!"

Gao Qiyuan's tone suddenly became very relaxed, which gave Gao Pan an absurd illusion that he had heard it wrong.
