Chapter 155

And in Brother Ouyang Xu's eyes, the most terrifying thing about her is that she is ruthless and will not stop until she achieves her goal.

Brother Ouyang Xu had no choice but to endure it.

But today seemed a bit different.

Gao Hui glared angrily at this Brother Ouyang Xu.

Brother Ouyang Xu thought he had done it without anyone knowing, and even lied to her yesterday.

But he didn't expect that during this time.

The Gao family had already investigated him thoroughly.

And Brother Ouyang Xu thought she, Gao Hui, was sinister and ruthless.

However, in reality, she was just a simple girl raised in a deep boudoir who knew nothing of the world, yet she was inexplicably burdened with such a bad reputation.

Gao Hui had indeed played some little tricks, such as going to inquire about Zhao Paner's news.

But those little tricks of hers were just some small means for a woman to protect her "love".

She had never done anything harmful to heaven and reason.

"Brother Ouyang Xu."

"Now you have ruined your reputation and the Gao family's reputation, what do you plan to do?"

Looking at the man she fell in love with, Gao Hui said angrily.

"I."

"His Majesty asked me to go to Jin Ling to be a palace official, and I have already agreed."

"But I, Brother Ouyang Xu, swear that I still love you, Miss Gao!"

"I will never fail you in this life!"

Brother Ouyang Xu said hurriedly.

Gao Hu, who had been sitting there without saying a word, finally couldn't bear it anymore!

He said angrily, "Brother Ouyang Xu, you actually abandoned the integrity of a scholar and went to Jin Ling to be a palace official with no future!"

"Hmph, Brother Ouyang Xu, let's break off the engagement!"

Hearing Gao Hu's words.

Brother Ouyang Xu and Gao Hui immediately changed color!

It's no wonder Gao Hu was so angry.

Today Brother Ouyang Xu was at court.

Deciding to avoid the limelight, he used his usual love for Taoist scriptures, often reciting the Great Cave Jade Scripture and the Supreme Profound Capital Wonderful Pure Body Scripture, to win the favor of Emperor Yongshun, and was conferred the title of Deputy Commissioner of the Purple Pole Palace, commonly known as a "palace official".

The "palace" in palace official refers to Taoist temples built or conferred by the Emperor, such as the Jade Purity Zhao Ying Palace, Divine Heaven Jade Purity Longevity Palace, Middle Taiyi Palace, Jingling Temple, etc., in the capital, and the Dongxiao Palace in Hangzhou and Mingdao Palace in Haozhou outside the capital.

The "temple" in palace official refers to Taoist temples built spontaneously by the people, such as the Huiling Temple and Xiangyuan Temple in the capital, and the Purple Pole Palace in Xijing, Yuntai Temple in Huazhou, Wuyi Temple in Jianzhou, etc., outside the capital.

Officials who manage these temples are collectively called palace officials, also known as shrine officials.

And Brother Ouyang Xu's palace official position is regular eighth rank.

Generally, new top scholars, second-place scholars, and second-class Jinshi are only granted the ninth-rank Dali Judge position.

Gu Qianfan was the fifth place in the second class of Jinshi, and was conferred the title of Dali Judge, serving as a judge in Jizhou, which was also ninth rank.

And Brother Ouyang Xu was favored by Emperor Yongshun, who practiced the arts of Huang-Lao and loved Taoist mysteries.

He, who was originally a Hanlin Scholar without rank, was granted the eighth rank, which was truly an exceptional promotion.

However.

Things are not that simple.

In the eyes of the world, Gao Hu has a virtuous consort sister, so he is a high-ranking imperial relative.

In reality, Gao Hu is of the Qingliu faction, the most unable to see this kind of flattering way, which is catering to Emperor Yongshun's preferences.

Brother Ouyang Xu, in order to avoid the scolding and rumors about him and the Gao family's attack.

Wanted to stay away from the Divine Capital for a while and run to Jin Ling to do this.

The Qingliu faction advocates the status of Confucianism, advocating an honest and upright way of being an official!

Taking impeaching the powerful and eunuchs as their own responsibility.

It is incompatible with the Taoism advocated by Emperor Yongshun.

This Brother Ouyang Xu, with the fame of a top scholar, adopted a flattering and opportunistic way, and even more so had no sense of responsibility, abandoning his fiancée Gao Hui and running away when trouble happened.

Naturally, Gao Hu was extremely furious.

Therefore, Gao Hu, who had already lost face because of this guy, immediately scolded: "Break off the engagement!"

"Father-in-law!"

"I have deep roots of love for Miss Gao, how can I break off the engagement?"

Brother Ouyang Xu was startled.

Now he had already damaged his reputation because of Jia Hui.

And ran to Jin Ling to be a palace official with no future.

If there is no one in the court, how can he rise again in the future?

So he firmly refused to break off the engagement.

Saying this, he even presented a token of love to Gao Hui.

Gao Hu understood clearly.

But Gao Hui didn't think so.

Seeing the jade pendant returned by Brother Ouyang Xu, she was moved by the sight of the object, and her heart was extremely reluctant to part with Brother Ouyang Xu, having a sense of not wanting to marry anyone else.

"Okay, I will wait for you."

Gao Hui looked deeply at the man she loved.. 0

She said, biting her lower lip.

Brother Ouyang Xu was overjoyed.

Gao Hu was very angry.

"Hui'er, I have made up my mind about this matter, this person is not a good match!"

I really don't know how many sweet words this Brother Ouyang Xu guy said to Gao Hui.

To actually make Gao Hui so obsessed.

But it is normal to think about it.

She is a woman raised in a deep boudoir, and basically, except for her father and the servants in the house, she hasn't had much contact with other men since she was a child.

Brother Ouyang Xu has high talent and good appearance.

If it weren't for knowing the truth, most women in the world would treat him as their good match.

Plus a series of sweet-talking offensives, Gao Hui would naturally be addicted to it.

If Brother Ouyang Xu were really virtuous and talented, it could be considered a kind of luck.

It's just a pity.

Brother Ouyang Xu is not this kind of person.

The reason he abandoned Zhao Paner in the first place was because he chose power and status; if he had a bigger backer in the future, he would also abandon Gao Hui for the same reason.

It seems he has a mind, but in reality, they are all small tricks.

In reality, the innocent Gao Hui doesn't know these things.

Gao Hui begged her father bitterly.

However, Gao Hu didn't listen.

He ordered his servants.

To force Brother Ouyang Xu to sign the divorce letter!

In Gao Hu's view.

With the divorce letter and the engagement token in hand, Gao Hui and Brother Ouyang Xu would have no more connection.

Brother Ouyang Xu was forced to press his handprint on the divorce letter and returned to his small courtyard.

His eyes were extremely resentful.

"Jia Hui, it was all you who caused me to be like this, I must make you die a horrible death, just wait, let you be glorious for a while, you offended Prince Yu, the Eight Dukes, and other forces, you will definitely die a horrible death, when you fall, I will return to the Divine Capital."

Thinking of this.
