Young Master Gao? Call me Little Grand Secretary!

Whether Wang Fu was cunning or not, he didn't know, but he was definitely despicable!

He used what I casually mentioned to him yesterday morning! And he used it without changing a single word!

Did you pay the copyright fee? How dare you be so arrogant!

This matter will definitely put the prefect in an awkward position!

Regardless of whether it's true or false, with such a huge commotion, even the false seems to become true!

Even if the imperial court later finds out the truth and comes out to refute the rumors, it won't be of any use, because the people love to hear such sensational stories; they really stir up people's emotions!

But the truth often means mundane things, who wants to hear that?

When it comes to spreading rumors, the key is not whether they are true or false, but what the other party is willing to believe!

Just like when an author writes a book, if they occasionally use a slightly bolder word once or twice, a bunch of perverts will yell that the author is not serious, and they will deliberately interpret every sentence thereafter as having another meaning.

Even if the author desperately tries to explain that he is a scholar who has studied the classics and is a respectable person, they still won't believe him...

Therefore, Prefect Teng of Kaifeng Prefecture is doomed!

Most importantly, he came up with such a brilliant idea, but he had nothing to do with the whole thing, and the credit was stolen just like that!

And he didn't dare tell anyone...

It's so frustrating just thinking about it!

In an instant, I lost all interest in practicing calligraphy and just wanted to go out and relieve my boredom!

Sigh, I wonder if Lin Chong is home. If he's not, it would be good for me to go and see my sister-in-law...

So Gao Zhao took Shi Qian to Lin Chong's house, but an old man opened the door and asked him who he was looking for.

Seeing that the old man was in good health, Gao Zhao guessed that he was Lin Chong's father-in-law. Who else could he be looking for?

They could only suggest looking for Lin Chong, but he said he wasn't home and told them to come back another day.

As they were talking, Zhang Yunniang heard the commotion and came over. Upon seeing Gao Zhao, her expression immediately changed, and she exclaimed, "Why are you here!"

Gao Zhao noticed that she was wearing a light green thin shirt today, which showed off her exquisite figure. Her large breasts made the clothes bulge. She was trembling in panic, and he was worried for the thin shirt.

"Do you think you know him?" Instructor Zhang looked the two men up and down with a suspicious expression.

"Greetings, sister-in-law!" Gao Zhao hurriedly bowed, then smiled at Instructor Zhang and said, "I visited Instructor Lin's residence for drinks a couple of days ago and met you there. Today, I have some matters to discuss with Instructor Lin that we didn't finish last time, so I've come to find you!"

Zhang Yunniang also came to her senses. She naturally knew Gao Zhao's purpose; his rude gaze had betrayed him. Suppressing her anger, she explained, "This is the son of Grand Commandant Gao from the Imperial Guard. He is acquainted with you, sir!"

Instructor Zhang was no ordinary man; at his age, he had seen it all. Although the two men's stories matched, his vigilance remained undiminished. He cupped his hands in greeting to Gao Zhao and said, "So it's Young Master Gao. I'm not here today, but I'll send him to pay you a visit when he returns!"

"Thank you for your trouble!" Gao Zhao cupped his hands in farewell and prepared to take his leave.

Instructor Zhang nodded and walked into the courtyard. Just as Zhang Yunniang was about to close the door, Gao Zhao suddenly stepped forward and whispered, "Sister-in-law, we've lied to someone again!"

Zhang Yunniang's face flushed instantly, her almond-shaped eyes widened, filled with shame and anger. Her rapid breathing caused another wave of turmoil. Just as she was about to scold him, Gao Zhao had already run away, so she could only glare at him angrily.

After leaving the Lin family, Gao Zhao felt great and even walked with a lighter step.

Shi Qian blinked and leaned closer to ask, "Young Master, is that lady your favorite?"

Gao Zhao nodded and smiled, "Isn't that obvious! With that look, who wouldn't like it!"

Shi Qian chuckled and said, "With your status as a young master, it's just a matter of using some tricks to capture him easily..."

"You're wrong!" Gao Zhao waved his hand, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, "Women are at their best when you haven't gotten them yet. Their looks are so alluring, making you want them more. But once you have them, they're nothing special! I can find them anywhere with a little money!"

Shi Qian suddenly realized, "This is despicable! He rejects those who are eager to please and only seeks out those who don't even give him a second glance. What else is this but despicable?"

Gao Zhao didn't think much of it. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw the clinic where the doctor had prescribed medicine for him last time. The doctor there was a grateful person!

Now that my body has changed, I probably can't take the medicine I was prescribed before anymore, so I'll ask him to change my medicine!

Although one's physical abilities are already sufficient to improve simply by adding points, who would complain about having an even stronger function!

Maintenance should begin in adolescence; it's too late to start when you're middle-aged and your strength is failing!

When Gao Zhao went in, the divine doctor didn't recognize him. Although not much time had passed, the man's spirit and energy had changed drastically!

When Gao Zhao suggested a functional examination, the renowned doctor gave him a disdainful look and advised, "Young people should be wary of lust. Don't take advantage of your youth to act recklessly. I treated a young man a few days ago, about your age, who was already impotent at such a young age!"

Gao Zhao's face darkened, but he forced himself not to lash out and reached out his hand.

The renowned physician took the patient's pulse and pondered deeply. After a moment, he chuckled again: "You young people these days! You always make a fuss over nothing. You're perfectly healthy, yet you waste my time. But just the other day I saw someone even more outrageous. He had a scratch on his neck and insisted he was going to die. Isn't that hilarious?"

Gao Zhao laughed upon hearing this, never expecting that there were such timid people in the world. He then asked the divine doctor to prescribe a formula for him to continue his treatment!

After gaining the title of "miracle doctor," Huang Qi became famous and now cherishes his reputation. He is generally unwilling to prescribe unnecessary medicines to make money, but Gao Zhao gave him too much, so he had no choice but to prescribe some tonics to strengthen his body and replenish his vital energy.

……

After arranging his work at the Censorate, Wang Fu went to a luxurious mansion, entered, and bowed, saying, "Wang Fu greets Your Excellency!"

The man seated, with a fair complexion and no beard, smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this and said, "You did a good job this time. The dignified Prefect of Kaifeng has been utterly disgraced by you. He'll probably be transferred to another post in the next few days!"

Wang Fu said sternly, "He offended the Emperor's household and deserved his punishment!"

"Ha, he didn't offend me!" The man at the seat picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said leisurely. Seeing Wang Fu's astonished expression, he explained, "I asked you to deal with him because I wanted to see how capable you were! It seems you've done quite well!"

"Yes, thank you for your praise, Your Excellency!" Wang Fu was shocked. The Prefect of Kaifeng was definitely a high-ranking and powerful figure in the court, but the purpose of this attack on him was just a trivial test!

"Good deeds deserve a reward!" the man at the seat laughed again. "Make preparations these next few days; the Emperor is still short of a Hanlin Academician and Attendant Reader!"

"Thank you so much for your patronage!" Wang Fu bowed again, overjoyed. Hanlin scholars were close ministers of the emperor, who could participate in court affairs and were used to check and balance the prime minister!

"By the way, you're one of Grand Tutor Cai's men, aren't you?"

"I am from the En family!"

"Haha...that's not what I meant! Nowadays, the entire court is dominated by Grand Tutor Cai's men, except for the Privy Councilor Zheng Juzhong, who is at odds with him. You should spend more time with Zheng Juzhong in the future!"

"Ah!" Wang Fu was shocked. This meant he was to betray Cai Jing. If Cai Jing found out, it would be disastrous!

"Is there a problem?"

"No, no!"

"That's good, go ahead!"

Wang Fu left absentmindedly, thinking to himself that he should also have some helpers. It was not a good thing to always be someone's dog!

Suddenly he remembered the cunning young man he had met in front of the palace gate!
