Chapter 388 Goodbye Dai Gao!
Dai Gao thought in his mind, thinking that he had experienced the thrills but finally achieved his goal, and his mood gradually became stable.
Being with the king is like a tiger. Dai Gao is used to this kind of mental journey. The reason why he has been trusted by Emperor Xinde for so many years and maintained his favor is that he will think about everything he does, leave a backup plan for himself everywhere, and will never fight unprepared battles.
For example, when he was doing this time with Lu Zheng, at first glance, he was going to send Lu Zheng to Longyou. In fact, he also had a sharp killer weapon hidden in it. No matter how Lu Zheng left or how he chose, there would be no good results.
More importantly, this clever arrangement made Emperor Xinde even if he knew about this, he had to be persuaded by Dai Gao, thus ensuring that Dai Gao's will can be implemented.
A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength. Dai Gao never underestimates anyone. This is the foundation of Dai Gao's standing for so many years.
"Master, you...you are finally back!" Song Fu'er carefully helped Dai Gao get out of the sedan chair, and a cold sweat broke out on his old face.
"Hmm?" Dai Gao raised his eyebrows and stared at Song Fuer: "What's wrong? Are there customers at home? Chen Zhiqian?"
"No! No! Lord Chen asked someone to give you a strange stone to the master in the afternoon, and the slave took it away! Now... Now... it is Mr. Lu Zheng and Mr. Lu in the mansion, and the slave... he really can't stop him!"
"What's going on? What's going on? So many guards are just having a good meal? Hundreds of people in the mansion can't deal with a little scholar?" Dai Gao suddenly became furious and rebuked him loudly.
In fact, the sky was already dark and the night was deep. The gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was quiet. When Dai Gao shouted, Song Fu'er and a group of servants were all silent and did not dare to make a sound.
Song Fu'er gritted the bullet and said, "Miss suddenly wanted to go to Fayuan Temple today. After leaving the house, she met Mr. Lu Zheng head-on. Slave... Slave didn't dare to take this responsibility, so she had to invite Mr. Lu Zheng to the mansion. Master, you should punish me!"
"You..." Dai Gao's eyes rolled, and he was so angry that one Buddha was born and the two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Who was he? As soon as Song Fu'er said that, he understood the whole story, but this made him even more angry!
"What a thief, I don't know how to be so arrogant, I dare to deceive Xiaojing. It's so damn!" He said in his heart that the fire in his chest was really hard to vent.
He felt so much pain for Dai Xiaojing, but the girl couldn't help her father. When the girl grew up, he couldn't control her father!
But why did the girl fall in love with this Lu Zheng? The boy named Lu is cunning and cunning, and has no kindness. What he can't tolerate is that he is romantic and affectionate, and there are women everywhere. How can such a person be his son-in-law of Dai Gao?
Dai Gao entered the mansion with a gloomy face, returned to the small living room, and said, "Go, bring that kid over to me! I..."
He only said the word "I", and then he heard a beautiful and pleasant voice from the door: "Are Daddy back? Xiao Jing is waiting for you to come back!"
"Uh..." Dai Gao was already rude, but now he couldn't say a word. He swallowed it all, and a long-lost kindness appeared on his face.
Dai Xiaojing entered the room pretty. She was carrying a small fruit basket in her hand. The fruit basket was filled with this wintering fruit. Dai Xiaojing personally peeled a pear for Dai Gao, then stood up to help him rub his shoulders and back, and said gently:
"Dad, you are so old, and you are still running around in the morning and late for the affairs of the court. It is really heartbreaking!
Xiaojing looked at the current scenery of our Dai family, but she also knew that the scenery was all because of Dad. If Dad, you don’t take care of your health and have a few shortcomings, how could my brother and I keep this family business? I’m afraid that nothing will be left at that time…”
Dai Gao's body stiffened slightly, his lips were tilted, and he couldn't say a word. Dai Xiaojing's words sounded like he was trying to persuade him to pay attention to his health. In fact, it was not to say that as a girl, she finally needed to have her own destination?
My daughter is extremely smart, and what she says is a famous saying, leaving Dai Gao speechless, but...
Dai Gao sighed inwardly, even more angry at Lu Zheng, but he remained silent on his face. Instead, he touched his daughter's hair with his hands and said, "Don't worry, girl, even if Daddy has tried this old bone, he will definitely have to protect you from your best!
Okay, it’s getting late, it’s time for you to rest, and Daddy should take a break early today!”
Dai Xiaojing nodded obediently, without saying a single word, stood up, carried the small fruit basket, and slowly went out, watching her daughter leave, and the smile on Dai Gao's face slowly faded away, becoming more and more gloomy.
Under the guidance of Song Fuer, Lu Zheng arrived at Dai Gao's small living room. Song Fuer did not dare to stay at all and slowly retreated, leaving only two old and young people in the room.
Dai Gao's face had returned to normal, he looked kind and upright, and had a demeanor. Lu Zheng's expression was also very calm. He sat rudely opposite Dai Gao and said:
"I didn't expect that I could enter the prime minister's mansion again today. Thank you Xiaojing! She is brave and understanding. In fact, I can come or not, and it doesn't matter if I come..."
Dai Gao pulled the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "What do you want to say, but it's okay to say it, I'll listen!"
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "What I want to say is that the Prime Minister forced me to surrender to the crown prince or to the King of Qin. I may disappoint you, Prime Minister!
I am different from ordinary people. If there are many roads in front of me, I am used to choosing the most difficult road. Longyou is difficult to walk, so I will go to Longyou for a walk. No matter how hard that place is, can officials suffer more than the people? When I go to Longyou, I wear black veil on my head! Haha..."
Lu Zheng laughed loudly, laughing very freely, even a little arrogant. This situation only happens in this situation. If anyone else does not dare to challenge Dai Gao like this.
Dai Gao's expression froze instantly. He stared at Lu Zheng, and a huge wave in his heart caused.
Why is Lu Zheng so sure that his intention is to force him to turn to the prince or the king of Qin? Dai Gao's intention is extremely secret, and he has absolutely not revealed anything to anyone. Lu Zheng actually has such insight?
Dai Gao felt it was impossible. Dai Gao claimed that his design was extremely clever. No matter what, Lu Zheng should have fallen into his plan, but the first thing Lu Zheng said to him exposed his proud plan, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Originally, Dai Gao did this to make Lu Zheng lose his holy favor. Dai Gao had already laid the groundwork. Whether Lu Zheng defected to the crown prince or the king of Qin, Emperor Xinde would not be in a good mood. Once that happens, Lu Zheng would definitely lose his holy favor.
But now Lu Zheng didn't choose any left and right, so he really chose to go to Longyou. When this matter came to Emperor Xinde, it must be Long Yan's joy. Dai Gao's careful calculations turned out to be a steal of chicken but lost a lot of rice!
Lu Zheng stared at Dai Gao, his smile slowly calmed down, and said, "Neither the prince nor the Qin King has no future. Lord Dai is smart and convenient here!
Our emperor asked immortals every day, but he was not thinking about handing over all power! He was thinking about living for ten thousand years, and he would always rule the world for thousands of years.
In this case, if I go to the prince and the king of Qin, isn’t that uncomfortable? Lord Dai, is this the truth I’m talking about?”
Dai Gao's face became even more ugly. He snorted softly and said, "You have been asking for your own fault today. Can you blame me? I don't know how many things I need to deal with in a day, and I will also think about the trivial matters of a child in Jiangnan?"
"Okay, it seems that you can't say much fresh things. Since that's the case, then okay, come and see the guests!" Dai Gao picked up the tea cup, and serving tea according to etiquette means seeing off guests.
Lu Zheng stared at Dai Gao and suddenly felt much more relaxed, because judging from Dai Gao's expression, Lu Zheng guessed his intentions. In the officialdom, there are traps everywhere. Top masters like Dai Gao have the ability to kill invisibly.
In fact, Lu Zheng didn't know this before. He had been vague and vaguely. However, after he entered the prime minister's mansion, especially after he had come into contact with Dai Xiaojing, inspiration suddenly arose in his mind.
When he was in the Lu family, he figured out that behind his series of encounters came from Zhongfuming's plot and conspiracy. When he arrived at the prime minister's mansion, he could understand Dai Gao's true intention and motivation for taking action.
Liangzhou Prefecture in Longyou is not the most desolate place in the northwest. The first city in the northwest is Liangzhou. Dai Gao really wants to kill Lu Zheng, so he has many choices, such as Jiaozhi in the south and the remote areas in Liaodong, which is much more powerful.
Lu Zheng didn't understand why Dai Gao didn't do that, but he figured out that Dai Gao's approach was very concealed and insidious. If Lu Zheng made the wrong choice, it might be difficult for him to make a comeback in his life!
Lu Zheng stood up, bowed to Dai Gao with his fists and said, "Dai Xiang, I will definitely live up to your expectations and trust in me when I go to Longyou. I will definitely work hard to be an official and guard the world for the emperor. The green mountains are always there, and the green waters flow. Student Lu Zheng will come back to Beijing in the future and come to visit me again!"
Lu Zheng said these words passionately. He was originally angry, but for some reason, he exposed Dai Gao's intentions, and endless passion suddenly arose in his heart.
Isn’t it just to go down to become an official? What’s wrong? Lu Zheng was a human being in two lifetimes, and he calculated with his fingers that he had experienced so many difficulties and obstacles. He didn’t stump him. Are he still afraid of being a Longyou?
Lu Zheng and Nie Yong have completely different natures. Nie Yong passed the Jinshi and entered the Hanlin area and was demoted to the local area. Lu Zheng was just a small juren and was hired by the court to be sent to the local government as an official. First of all, he had an advantage in his reputation.
