Chapter 216
"You fucking fart!"
After hearing what he said, Liu Jin couldn't control much anymore. He opened his mouth and scolded him. When had he been insulted like this before? And he was very ready to take action.
Liu Xie was confused, looked at Fu Shou, stepped forward and grabbed him, "Get out of here."
"Me! This! No."
Liu Jin held in his breath and retreated. At this moment, Liu Xie took out the gold from his arms without saying a word. Although it was not as much as two ingots of horseshoe gold, it was still not much less.
"Butler, I don't have that much money with me, how about you be accommodating?"
"Accommodating?"
The butler took the gold and weighed it. After pondering for a moment, he nodded, "Okay, it seems that you are quite sincere, so that's it, but it's only this time. Next time, bring more!"
"good."
Liu Xie asked, pretending to be grateful, and then led Fu Shou and Liu Jin into Guo Jia's residence under the leadership of the housekeeper. Liu Jin followed behind. Although he lowered his head, his eyes were always on the housekeeper.
Boy, do you need to bring more with you next time? Humph, I don’t know if there will be another time. Anyway, I will meet Guo Jia later and see if I don’t let him strip you off!
Damn it, you still dare to say whether I am a human being or not? Today I will let you see how I am not a human being!
Guo Jia's mansion is not only small in appearance, but also not very large inside. After crossing a square garden, there are four rooms on the east and west sides, one of which is a large second floor. That's all. The layout should be connected to the back garden.
nothing.
A housekeeper can make as much gold as he opens his mouth. Guo Fengxiao shouldn't have no money. Why did he make the house so dilapidated?
With doubts, Liu Xie and the others came to the second floor and walked in. They saw the arrogant housekeeper suddenly waved his hand, "You guys wait here, I will report to the master. By the way, don't mess around."
Don't make a sound when you leave. I'm not in good health. Don't let you be surprised. That's something you can't bear!"
After saying that, the housekeeper gave them a warning look before tiptoeing up the stairs.
"Your Majesty, who is he?"
As soon as he left, Liu Jin rolled his eyes and spat fiercely, "I don't know how Lord Guo Jia educates his subordinates. Look at his dog face, what the hell!"
"okay."
Liu Xie patted him, and Fu Shou on the side comforted him with a smile, "I know you have been wronged, Grand Chamberlain. When I get back, I will give you a few jars of honey and white lotus root. Is that okay?"
"
"real?!"
When Liu Jin heard that there was food, he became energetic. Fu Shou nodded. At this moment, the housekeeper came down from upstairs again, "Come on, follow me."
"kindness."
The three people followed the housekeeper's guidance and walked up the stairs to the second floor. The decoration here was simpler, the light was dim, and there was a strong smell of soup. Looking around, there was a thin man on the couch over there.
The figure, half lying down and covered with several animal skins, is none other than Guo Jia!
"Hey, I said you still don't salute me?"
Seeing that Liu Xie and the others were silent, the housekeeper reminded him unhappily. But this time, Liu Xie not only ignored him, but walked towards Guo Jia on his own.
"Fengxiao, how is your health?"
"You are presumptuous!"
The butler scolded, but Guo Jia obviously recognized the identity of the person who came, and hurriedly sat up from the couch and scolded the butler, "You are so presumptuous! Bold slave, do you know who this is?"
"Ah? Master, who is he?" Before the housekeeper could react, Liu Jin went up and pushed him, "You bastard, who is it? Listen carefully, this is today's bastard."
Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor! This is the head of the East Palace, the Queen!"
"ah!"
The housekeeper was really dumbfounded now. He sat on the ground dumbfounded and couldn't say a word. However, Guo Jia wanted to get out of bed to see the ceremony, but Liu Xie stopped him.
"Fengxiao. You are not in good health. Just don't move around. I'm just here to see you and give you medicine." Liu Xie said. Fu Shou also came forward.
At this time, Guo Jia couldn't sit still. He said that it was okay for the emperor to exempt himself from the customary etiquette. But the empress, Feng Jia, was the supreme queen. As a foreign minister, she could not break the etiquette no matter what.
"Your Majesty, Guo Jia, please see the Queen."
"Master Guo, don't be so polite. Your Majesty, help him up quickly."
Although Guo Jia knelt down, he knelt down on the couch. Liu Xie helped him lie down. Guo Jia hurriedly called for people to bring incense-scented reunion chairs to Fu Shou, and then ordered fruit snacks. Everything
They were all ready, but before Liu Xie could say anything, the chief internal official spoke.
"Sir Guo, you are really not an ordinary person. They say that the prime minister is a seventh-rank official, but our family has also been to Sikong's mansion, and his subordinates are not as powerful as yours!"
"kindness?"
Hearing this, Guo Jia frowned. Liu Xiegang wanted him to shut up, but it was already too late. "Official official, what do you mean? Fengxiao doesn't understand."
"Don't you understand?" Liu Jin raised the corner of her mouth, pointed at the stunned butler with a whisk, and said in a neutral tone: "Look, your disciple is really unusual. Someone is holding him at knifepoint outside the door.
Just when we were about to enter our house, His Majesty offered gold to buy the way... Tsk, tsk, this is extraordinary!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Guo Jia's eyes widened and he looked at the housekeeper fiercely, "Say! All of this is true!"
"Master, master, I don't know that this is His Majesty the Emperor!" The housekeeper almost cried.
"Bastard! It's not anyone. Let me ask you, have you been doing this for so long?" Guo Jia was very anxious. The housekeeper hesitated for a while, but finally admitted it.
"Sir, I have no choice but to do this!" the butler sobbed and explained the reason. Of course, it was definitely wrong for him to ask for money in the first place, but the reason why he did this was because there were too many people who wanted to see Guo Guo.
Good luck.
The officials were better off, and he never opened his mouth to the officials. Mainly the literati who came to seek refuge and become apprentices, one by one, wanted to climb onto Guo Jia's high branches, endlessly, and he could handle it at first, but
Later, as Guo Jia's health became worse and worse, he also felt sorry for his master, so he made such a condition.
With the horseshoe gold as a threshold, as expected, there were a lot less people coming to visit. Although the remaining people were not that few, at least these people had some family backgrounds, so it might not be unfavorable for them to meet Guo Jia.
After listening to what he said, Liu Xie could see that what he said was true, so he understood him. Although Liu Jin on the side snorted, he obviously had no intention of pursuing it further.
Only Guo Jia's face was still so cold, "Although you say so, you shouldn't be like this. How long have you been like this?"
"More than a year."
"...Where's the money?"
"Master, I have kept all the small ones, and I have never spent anything carelessly." The housekeeper said, hurriedly ran out, and came back after a while carrying a huge cloth bag.
"Master, all the gold is here!"
Looking at the cloth bag, Guo Jia sighed and turned to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty, this money has been confiscated. Please don't refuse."
"good."
Liu Xie was also happy. It wasn't that he was jealous of money, he just didn't want Guo Jiali to talk more. He had seen his cases before, and the less he talked, the better it would be for his condition.
Liu Xie took the money and then smiled and joked, "But Fengxiao, you won't lose. You can use the money to buy medicine for yourself." After saying that, he turned to Liu Jin and said, "Tell the outside world.
