Chapter 13

At this time, Gao Yang and Gao Feng also got off the carriage and pushed open the Duke's mansion gate.

Gao Feng pulled a long face and walked straight to the inner courtyard.

Gao Yang also walked toward his room.

The Duke of Ding is the head of the six great Dukes of Da Qian, with a prominent status. Plus, Gao Tianlong is like a god of war, rarely losing in his life, and has received many rewards.

Inside the Gao mansion, it is simply frighteningly large.

According to memory, Gao Yang bypassed several artificial mountains, walked along the corridor from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard, and finally arrived at his room.

Gao Yang threw himself directly onto his bed; the dry mattress made every cell in his body greedily want it.

"Refreshing!"

After lying on the bed in the most comfortable position, Gao Yang began to calculate in his heart.

Although the Gao family is going downhill, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. A Duke's family and a third-rank high official are enough to make him walk sideways in Changancheng.

Now, he just needs to hold onto the Empress's big white legs, and his little life in Changancheng is simply unimaginable.

It's called comfortable and pleasant.

"I wonder what position the Empress will reward me with..."

Since he has transmigrated to ancient times, as a seven-foot man, he should naturally build merit and achieve some accomplishments.

Just as Gao Yang was thinking wildly, the door was suddenly pushed open.

A little girl with a ponytail, looking about six or seven years old, came into view.

The little girl's face was watery, and her eyes were round and dark.

As soon as she saw Gao Yang, the little girl immediately burst into tears.

"Wuwuwu."

"Brother, why aren't you dead?"

"..."

Gao Feng walked all the way to a room in the middle of the inner courtyard. He quickly pushed open the room and then respectfully saluted Gao Tianlong.

"Greetings, Father."

Da Qian governs the country with filial piety; juniors must respectfully salute their elders.

Gao Tianlong was expressionless, playing with the chessboard, "I know about Yang'er's matter."

"This degenerate son hides deep, but today's matter is not only a good thing for this degenerate son, but also a good thing for my Gao family."

Gao Feng was worried, "But the Empress did not reward him, which means that everything is not yet settled!"

Gao Tianlong said while playing with the chessboard, "Yang'er is naughty and famous. Originally, this Cui family's Cui Xinghe was the best candidate in the Empress's heart, but Yang'er killed his way out halfway."

"Cui Xinghe is the top scholar of Da Qian, not only proficient in classics but also well-versed in the way of governing the country. It is normal for the Empress to hesitate. According to my understanding of the Empress, between Cui Xinghe and Yang'er, there is still an assessment specific to governing the country."

"The current Empress's ambition is not smaller than the late Emperor's."

Gao Feng frowned tightly, "According to Father, if Yang'er cannot beat that Cui Xinghe, wouldn't he still be unable to escape punishment?"

"That's not necessarily true."

Gao Feng's eyes brightened, "Father has confidence in Yang'er?"

Gao Tianlong nodded, feeling a burst of emotion.
