Chapter 627 Gao Qiu: We still need to ask Lin Chong to take charge!
"Alang! Alang! It's time to get up early for class!"
Gao Qiu woke up in a daze, let out a long yawn, started to wash up under the service of his maid, and then listened to the butler's report on today's schedule: "From Mao hour to Chen hour, the Imperial City Department will work; from Chen hour to noon, calligraphy
Class; from noon to Shen hour, painting class; from Shen hour to You hour, epigraphy class; from You hour to Xu hour, sumo wrestling class..."
Because of his simple education level, the housekeeper's words were also very simple. After hearing the rich course schedule, Gao Qiu pressed his eyebrows and finally woke up: "The official is fond of wrestling recently, so he moved the time of the sumo wrestling class forward. It's too early.
Afterwards, I really didn’t have the strength.”
The housekeeper hurriedly said: "Yes!"
Gao Qiu said again: "Last time, I dismissed the undercover man who acted lightly and lightly, and asked you to choose someone who can teach. How is the search going?"
Uchidōko is a master of sumo wrestling in the royal family. The royal family recruits strong men from all over the world who are good at this art. There are only more than a hundred people, and all of them have extraordinary skills.
But just because you practice well doesn't mean you can teach others. Gao Qiu was almost thrown to pieces by his previous rivals, and he developed a bit of fear towards sumo wrestling.
But for the things that Zhao Ji likes, no matter how afraid he is, he still has to bravely do it, and he has to practice with all his strength, so he still has to learn what he has to learn, but he has to be taught by someone else.
The butler rolled his eyes, and he was indeed prepared: "How dare you not be careful about Alang's matter? I have already chosen a strongman, and I am just waiting for Alang to take a look!"
After he gave the order, the servants handed over the portraits. Not only did they have a clear appearance, but they also had a general introduction. They were all private warriors with experience in teaching in martial arts schools.
Gao Qiu was quite satisfied when he saw it: "Well done!"
In the past, what Gao Qi envied the most was the powerful officials whose subordinates would do their best to run away if they just gave an order. Now that he has become one of them, he naturally has to boss others well.
Thinking about it this way, no matter how tired you are from studying on weekdays, it doesn’t matter!
He was enjoying the delicious breakfast. The servants were half kneeling on the ground, with their hands raised in the air, turning the pages one by one for him to take a look at.
Gao Qiu looked at it casually until a particularly ugly face came into view. He immediately frowned and felt nauseated. He angrily shouted, "Who is this person? Are you going to include such a hideous face?"
The steward on the side quickly knelt down: "Alang, forgive me! Alang, forgive me! This man's name is Jiao Ting, he is from Zhongshan Prefecture. Three generations of his ancestors have made a living by sumo wrestling. The Jiao family is well-known among the wrestlers in the capital. The little one is
I dare not not enter it..."
But when he thought that other sumo wrestlers had paid tribute, but this one was ignorant, the servant not only suggested that the painter should paint in an ugly way, but also added: "It's just that this person is quite rude, and his hands and feet are not serious..."
Gao Qiu had originally heard that Jiao Ting was a sumo wrestler, and he wanted to meet him, but he lost interest as soon as he heard this. He was in great pain when he was thrown by Nai Dōngzi before, so how could he want such a weak and weak person again?
The man immediately waved his hand and said: "Drive him away! Drive him away! It's really disgusting!"
The housekeeper was secretly proud: "Yes!"
"This...this...and this...let them come see me in the afternoon!"
Gao Qiu picked out the most pleasing ones and finished his breakfast. Although he was quite satisfied with his servant's loyalty to him, looking at the empty main hall, he thought that these things should be handled by a virtuous lady, and he suddenly wanted to
A warm family: "I asked you to find a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for me, how did it go?"
"As for Bing'alang, he's still looking...still looking..."
The housekeeper was still smiling on the outside, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.
Gao Qiu is still unmarried and has no heirs, because he was originally from a poor family. Two years ago, he was a servant who worked as a book boy and ran errands for others. Later, he relied on Cuju to rise to the top, but he was looked down upon by serious officials, not to mention that he is now a servant.
To the Imperial City Division...
If it is the former or the latter item alone, then it is not bad. As long as they are official confidants, they will always stick to it at all costs. But if these two layers are stacked, the scholar-bureaucrats will definitely reject it. Who is willing to follow Gao Qiu?
After getting married, he immediately renounced himself in Shilin.
Even warriors are unwilling. Although the social status of warriors is low, their wealth and enjoyment are not bad. Those who come from military generals' families have contacts with scholar-bureaucrats and have established a solid relationship network. Why bother with Gao Qiu?
The head of the Imperial City Division, who was kicked out of the official family at some point, would be the in-laws and bear the risk of being implicated for nothing?
Therefore, the shrewd matchmaker did not dare to take this job, and the housekeeper also had a headache, so he said wisely: "Alang, you know, Fan Lou has a lady Cui who has come to sing. This girl's name is Nian Yue, she is both beautiful and beautiful, and she has the upper house."
Where’s the starting capital?”
Fan Lou is the first of the seventy-two main shops. Those who can go to Fan Lou to sing must be the most outstanding prostitutes in Xiaotianshui Lane. Of course, sometimes the appearance of the oiran can also increase the popularity of Fan Lou. It is a mutual achievement.
.
When Gao Qiu heard this, his brows suddenly moved: "Cui Nianyue...Cui Nianyue...what a good name!"
The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.
Just divert your attention. For someone of your birth and status, don’t expect to marry the wife of a wealthy family. It’s better to look at the ladies from Xiaotianshui Lane...
Gao Qiu really liked the lady from Xiaotianshui Lane, but when he thought about his full schedule, he hesitated: "Do I still have time?"
The housekeeper hurriedly said: "The schedule is already full within ten days, but as long as Alang wants to rest, I must make arrangements for Mrs. Cui to wait for Alang!"
Gao Qiu was not originally so hard-working, but he was supposed to start from the middle and lower levels and accumulate qualifications, but now he was directly assigned to the Imperial City Secretary. Knowing that he was not worthy of the position, he valued Zhao Ji's favor even more.
Thinking of the official's surprise and praise after showing off his handwriting a few days ago, he felt so happy and no longer tired at all.
So Gao Qiu flatly refused: "Yesterday was the winter solstice. Didn't I just take a break? Classes are important! Lady Cui, let's talk about it later!"
"yes!"
The housekeeper was a little impressed, but then he secretly pouted: "Why do you want a wife like this? In the future, you will adopt a godson to inherit the incense and make the family business easier for outsiders..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gao Qiu didn't know what the butler was thinking, but when he spread his arms and asked the maids to tidy up his clothes, a question came to his mind.
What is the purpose of working so hard? Is it just for eating, drinking and having fun?
Then why is there no time for eating, drinking and having fun now?
Gao Qiu didn't think about this problem until he left the house, but soon he couldn't think about it anymore.
Because the people on the street were talking a lot, the atmosphere today was different from the previous days when they were all discussing the Taixue case.
Gao Qiu probably understood the cause and effect, and couldn't help frowning: "Last night, Mingzunjiao attacked the Kaifeng government office and set fires everywhere? These thieves are really bold, and the Kaifeng government office is too cowardly!"
"The thief's head was taken, and the thieves also suffered heavy casualties? That's pretty much it... was it Lin Chong's doing?"
"Lin Chong is quite capable. He killed the leader of the bandits in Wuyou Cave. This time, the leader of the Ming Zun Sect was taken by him again? Haha!"
Before Gao Qiu could finish his sour words, a conversation between several people not far away attracted his attention:
"This is all caused by the Mingzun believers who worshiped 'Zuoming' and were caught pretending to be rebellious!"
"You can't say that. According to me, the capital has never been at peace since that man succeeded to the throne..."
"You have no conscience. Isn't it just the official thing to clear out the Worry-free Cave after they succeed to the throne?"
"That is the Queen Mother's will! The credit of Judge Gongsun! Where is the Queen Mother now? Where is Judge Gongsun? If there was Judge Gongsun, how would the evil cult traitors dare to act recklessly in the Kaifeng government office?"
"Queen Mother...is that thing you said true?"
…
Gao Qiu couldn't help but change his face when he heard half of it. At the end, he became furious and furious: "Dare to criticize the officials? Quick! Arrest them! Arrest them all!"
But he forgot that he hadn't arrived at the Imperial City Division yet, and the people around him were servants who had gathered to seek refuge after gaining power.
These servants rushed towards him in the direction he pointed, causing chaos, but those who were discussing had already merged into the crowd and disappeared.
Gao Qiu was so angry that his chest heaved, but he could not contain his panic. He quickly entered the Imperial City and called his men: "Go to the city quickly and find out what the people are talking about now. If there is any criticism against the officials,
, arrest them all, no one will be spared!"
The subordinate was stunned and hesitated to speak, but finally reminded him: "Be careful, this is what Mr. Yang and Mr. Lan did a while ago, but it caused a lot of discussion among the people..."
Only then did Gao Qiu realize that he was angry, but he couldn't get off the stage for a while, so he couldn't help but roared: "You think I am, don't you know? Go and check! Go!
"
The men hurriedly dispersed, and then in just over half an hour, they reported a piece of news that made Gao Qiu's eyesight darken.
Public opinion in the capital returned.
This is how public opinion changed during this period:
"Zuoming" incident (official matricide) → Taixue fraud case → Mingzun teaching case → "Zuoming" incident (official matricide)
It's not that no one paid attention to the Taixue fraud case, but the real culprit turned out to be the Mingzunjiao who was behind the scenes. Coupled with yesterday's murder and arson, it completely aroused the anger of the people of the capital.
Then, whether it was because of the guidance of Ming Zunjiao prisoners who pretended to be "serving their orders" when they paraded in the street before, or because they missed the apparent tranquility of Judge Gongsun's presence, in the end they all ended up in the same place, returning to the topic of official matricide.
Gao Qiu said in a trembling voice: "What should we do? Is there any way... to stop them from spreading rumors about the official affairs?"
The men below looked at each other with extremely ugly expressions.
Among the things that can happen in the land of the capital, the Taixue fraud case has an extremely bad impact. If this case cannot change the minds of the people, what else can take its place?
Gao Qiu couldn't do anything anyway and would just yell: "Speak! Are you all mute?"
Knowing that this boss could do nothing and could only play with the officials, the subordinates of the Imperial City Department were also desperate. One of them suggested in a low voice: "Catching the traitor of Mingzun Cult may make this crisis go away!"
Gao Qiu laughed angrily: "Not only Mingzunjiao, but also Zuoming. Catching these two gangs of thieves will naturally stop them! Do you still need to say this? I'll let you check the traces of Zuoming."
, you haven’t even given me the slightest clue so far. You don’t even know where that eagle came from! How to catch it! How to catch it!
"
His subordinates were as silent as cicadas and dared not say a word anymore.
Gao Qiu understood that it would be impossible to count on this group of people. He sat blankly for a moment and sighed: "Get ready! I am going to invite Lin Chong, but I didn't expect that I would have to rely on this person in the end!"
