Hope for luck

Chapter 288
Gao Pan had selfish intentions in his heart, so he naturally didn't want to see Gao Guangyuan come home so easily. Therefore, although he came up with a solution, it was actually not a solution at all, because it was impossible to do it.

So, after Gao Pan finished speaking, Gao Qiyuan looked at Gao Pan with wide eyes, as if he was very dissatisfied, but what Gao Pan said was not wrong, this was indeed a solution, and he couldn't reprimand Gao Pan for anything, so he could only continue to ask with a gloomy expression :

"Besides, is there any other way?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan bowed slightly and replied respectfully:
"Other than that, there is the only way, that is, our Gao family will do our best to save the second brother. If the grandfather takes the lead, the eldest uncle and the second uncle will follow suit and write a letter to the emperor, begging the emperor to give him a lighter sentence!"

These words made Gao Qiyuan's face even more gloomy. He didn't even dare to tell Mr. Gao about this, so how dare he let Mrs. Gao take the lead in writing a letter to ask the emperor to give him a lighter punishment?
"What about other than that?"

Gao Qiyuan still did not give up, stared at Gao Pan and continued to ask.

Seeing this, Gao Pan felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he still replied patiently:

"Other than that, there is no other way but to let the second brother plead guilty and submit to the law!"

As soon as the words were finished, Gao Qiyuan's expression suddenly became gloomy. Even a scheming person like Gao Pan couldn't do anything, so what could he do?

"My lord, you can't listen to him. My concubine heard that the prince of the county came and said that he came here for his son, so why did he just leave?"

At this moment, Mrs. Ren broke in without hesitation, and said in a sad voice.

This made Gao Qiyin and the three brothers feel a little sad, after all, they are their own nephews, and they also felt a little distressed for Gao Guangyuan.

Gao Qiyuan looked at Mrs. Ren with an angry face and said:
"Woman, what do you know, go back to the backyard!"

But Mrs. Ren didn't listen to him, but pointed at Gao Pan and said:

"Yuan'er was doing a good job as a county magistrate outside, why did he come back suddenly? Was it because of him? I was still thinking, why did this happen by such a coincidence, and it happened that Yuan'er ran into it, it must be him, for the sake of it." Framed his second brother, deliberately set up a trap, Gao Pan, you talk, isn't that true?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan showed a bit of disgust on his face, and replied lightly:

"Eldest aunt thinks highly of me too. I'm just a concubine for being able to frame the second brother together with the Secretary of the Imperial City. How can I do this?"

Mrs. Ren was stunned by these words, not knowing how to refute Gao Pan, while Gao Qiyuan looked at Gao Pan suspiciously.

Mrs. Ren didn't understand the situation, and didn't know Gao Pan's methods, but he knew that Gao Pan was powerful, and Gao Pan was able to get acquainted with Mr. Shoufu, which made Gao Qiyuan wonder if everything was done by Gao Pan as Mrs. Ren said set?
Gao Qiyuan's suspicious gaze, Gao Pan felt it, frowned slightly, bowed and said:

"Uncle, nephew has finished what he should say, if there is nothing else, nephew will leave first!"

After finishing speaking, he saluted Gao Qiyuan respectfully and prepared to leave.

However, at this moment, Mrs. Ren suddenly stopped Gao Pan's way, and looked at him and asked sharply:
"Don't leave. Before I came, I heard that you are not timid in front of the county prince. Why are you ready to leave when I come? If you don't speak clearly, you are not allowed to leave!"

This made Gao Pan a little angry, he looked directly at Mrs. Ren and said:

"The eldest aunt is so unreasonable. I never ask what the second brother does. How do I know what he is going to do? As for not showing timidity in front of the county king, it is because I have no shame in my heart, so naturally I don't need to be afraid of him!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Ren was still full of anger, and said bitterly:
"Don't pretend to be confused here. The day before yesterday, when you saw Yuan'er, why did you say that his seal was black and that disaster would befall him? If it wasn't for your frame, how could he be in trouble?"

Gao Pan was taken aback by this statement. The day before yesterday, he saw Gao Guangyuan uttering abusive words, so he couldn't help exasperating. How did he know that this matter had reached Mrs. Ren's ears?
Questioning him about this matter now, he was a little scared for a while, a little afraid of what Mrs. Ren would know from it.

After thinking about it, Gao Pan replied in a deep voice:
"The day before yesterday when I was on the veranda of the main courtyard, I ran into my second elder brother, and he provoked me with words. When I got angry for a while, I replied back. If my aunt thinks there is something wrong, then my nephew has nothing to say! "

Gao Pan's explanation was naturally reasonable, and Mrs. Ren couldn't accuse her of anything. However, she killed Gao Guangyuan who was framed by Gao Pan.

Seeing this, Gao Qiyuan was not satisfied with Gao Pan's explanation, and at the same time he felt a little suspicious, but he couldn't come up with any real evidence for a while, and he couldn't say anything, so he let Gao Pan leave.

Seeing this, Gao Pan respectfully saluted the four brothers Gao Qiyuan before leaving the main hall and preparing to head towards the east courtyard.

But at this moment, a servant came to report that someone was asking to see him outside the door. Gao Pan was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect anyone else to come to see him at this time.

It wasn't until he came to the door that he realized that it was Xie Yujun, so he immediately greeted him with a smile:
"Brother Yujun, what happened to my house?"

Xie Yujun said happily:

"Yes... Yes... Maybe let me go in first?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan couldn't laugh or cry:
"What's there?... Forget it, it's rare for you to come to our house, let's talk about it after entering the house!"

As he said that, he led the way ahead and led Xie Yujun towards the east courtyard.

While walking, Xie Yujun looked around and said in admiration:

"Every time I come to your mansion, I feel ashamed of myself. It's worthy of the Duke's mansion..."

After Gao Pan heard this, he took it up angrily and said:
"Don't act like you haven't seen the world. Your county prince's mansion is much better than ours, and you pretend you haven't seen it!"

Seeing this, Xie Yujun shrank his neck slightly, looking a little embarrassed:
"Haha, shouldn't I praise you? Hey, you live in this broken courtyard. It seems that your life in the mansion is not as good as I imagined..."

Seemingly realizing that the East Courtyard was relatively shabby, Xie Yujun began to frown and contemptuously.

This made Gao Pan want to punch him twice, and said with a dark face:

"If it hurts your eyes, just go out, I don't want you to come here yet!"

Seeing that Gao Pan seemed really angry, Xie Yujun said with a playful smile:

"Brother Gao, why are you serious? Hahaha..."

After Gao Pan heard this, he was stunned on the spot, while Xie Yujun smiled and walked over his body, heading towards the east courtyard on his own.

Looking at Xie Yujun's back, Gao Pan couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, he couldn't understand Xie Yujun's temperament.

At times resourceful, at times playful, at other times at ease, it's hard to see through.

Gao Pan stood there thinking for a while, then shook his head lightly, and then walked into the east courtyard.
