Lord of the House
Vol 2 Chapter 22: Gu family (1)
When Gu Wuchen grabbed Lin Bie's arm and wanted to introduce him to his wife, Gu Yingxiu said that Lin Bie was the son of Mrs. Mei, and Gu Wuchen was stunned for a moment.
Gu shi asked suspiciously, "Who is Mei Niang?"
Gu Wuchen sighed: "My eldest brother and sister-in-law were implicated by me. When they were exiled to the northwestern Xinjiang, the entire Gu family followed Mei Niang, who contracted the disease and died on the way..." After speaking, he bowed to Lin Fuzuo and saluted, "You are also affected by it. The person I am burdened with, yesterday I received your favor again, I really can't repay it."
"How dare you, how dare you? Master Gu killed Lin Fu." Lin Fu hurriedly bowed in return, and even pressing his head lower than Gu Wuchen would not be considered rude.
Gu Yingxiu followed Gu and Gu Wuchen's youngest daughter Xun'er to the inner house to change into clean clothes. Yang Pu and the deputy lieutenant of Yunqi of Dongyang Mansion chased down Lin Fu's master and servant, but they were befriended by Lin Fu at the village entrance. Several foreign horse traders helped to surround and kill and reported to Gu Wuchen.
The chief inspector is in charge of the punishment and impeachment of a province. Gu Wuchen served as the deputy inspector of Jiangdong. He is not an incompetent person. After listening to the descriptions of Yang Pu and the deputy lieutenant of Yunqi in Dongyang, he knew the few foreign traffickers who were friends with Lin Fu. Ma Ke is afraid that he is also a strong and powerful character, he has no intention of pursuing it, and only said to Yang Pu: "Send two people to use my name to assassinate Mr. Liang in Shiliang County, report this matter carefully, and hunt down the assassins. Party affairs are still handled by Shiliang County. I am still on the way to my post, and I have not officially assumed the post, so it is inconvenient to ask about this..."
Gu Wuchen went south this time, and his son Gu Siyuan and his wife and daughter accompanied him. Except for Yang Pu and his son, and a soldier from northern Hebei who followed him back to the capital as guards, there were only four maids and servants, and no one was sent to Shiliang County to report the news. The deputy lieutenant of Yunqi in Dongyang Mansion naturally took over the matter and sent two people to Shiliang County to report the news. As for Gu Yingxiu's killing of Diao servants, Xian Zuo had to examine the body before disposing. Under the circumstances, Gu Yingxiu's actions were shocking, but according to the laws of the dynasty, there was nothing wrong with it, and there was no need to hide it.
Gu Wuchen asked Lin Fu what his plans for the future were: "Yesterday, I heard Liang Gong Zuoren say that you are the only one who was selected in the Shiliang County Jinke Township Exam. When do you plan to go to the capital to participate in the general examination? I thought it would be better to go to the capital early to choose a place to study quietly. Siyuan's grandfather was the former servant of the Ministry of Home Affairs Tang Gongji Haoxin (Tang Haoxin), and he was also my teacher. He was very rewarding for young talents. The capital, you can bring a letter to the house to report safety, and you can also read it quietly in the Tang mansion..." Gu Wuchen originally wanted to thank Lin Fu for his kindness for helping out yesterday, but he knew that he was also involved and died at the time. The son of Mei Niang, who was suffering from the epidemic, had the intention to treat him as his own son and nephew. Yesterday, he knew from Liang Zuoren that Lin Bie's status in the Lin family was not very high, and then he had the intention to help him in the imperial examination.
"Thank you Master Gu for your kind cultivation. Lin Fu was ranked 137th in the township examination. It was a fluke that he was not named after Sunshan, and he has no plans to go to the capital to participate in the meeting for the time being..."
"That's it..." Gu Wuchen hesitated for a while, he was very talented, and in the eyes of others, it was a great achievement. He felt that the 137th place in the township examination was only reluctant. Yesterday, Liang Zuoren didn't talk to him. When he mentioned this, he pondered for a moment and said, "If you stay in Shiliang County and study hard for three more years, it is also good to take the general examination of the next subject. You are still young and have a great future. More often, I was a year older than you when I took people to the capital to participate in the general examination."
"..." Lin Fie wanted to wait for Gu Yingxiu to come over and mention the matter of accompanying him to Jiangning, but when Gu Wuchen said it here, he no longer avoided it and said, "Master Gu may not know, those few foreign horse dealers It's not that they helped me for no reason... They were originally invited to Shanglindu to sell horses when I was living in Tinghu. The second son of my family was greedy for their good horses and wanted to buy them. I'm afraid that Dongyang will not have a place to live, so I plan to go to Jiangning to find a family..." Lin Fu told Gu Wuchen what happened half-truth, "It's not that I'm a villain, the second son of my family is really narrow-minded. Although I'm also a child of the Lin family, but I hunted down for fellow assassins, and the sword servants around the Seventh Lady refused to help them, and they knew how to save me and wait for the second son of the Rakhine crime master. I stay in Dongyang for one day, it's like sitting on pins and needles for a day. …”
"..." Gu Wuchen didn't expect that Lin Fu would be in a hurry to leave Dongyang Mansion, he was stunned for a while, and said, "We will also leave for Jiangning tomorrow. Since you don't want to stay in Dongyang, you can go with us to Jiangning, but you can come from a family background. The matter is postponed, and it is the right way to try to stand out and become an official..."
A scholar is qualified to be an official in the township examination, and a scholar has the qualifications to become an official. However, officials are all petty officials and officials, and the space for promotion is extremely narrow. Gao Xiang.
In the past ten years, the most successful person to become an official is Dong Yuan, the prefect of the current Weiyang House. Dong Yuan has been in office for six years, and his grades are all excellent, but he has only been promoted to Xianxia County's nine-pin master book. But it was when the She family swept across Dongmin in Jin'an, the rebels slayed the Xianxia County, and Dong Yuan joined the county people and the yamen abolished the magistrate and refused to defend the city. Later, he gave Jiangning's Minister of War and the Governor of East Fujian, Li Zhuo, an income under his command. He disagreed with Li Zhuo on the matter of the extravagant family being attached. He was transferred to Jiangning as Jiangning's military officer. In March, he was transferred to Weiyang House as the prefect. In a few years, the juren who was born in the ninth grade of the year turned into a noble from the fourth grade, and it can be regarded as a strange one in the official circle.
The so-called Qixuan is naturally not the right way. Scholars all over the world regard the Imperial Examination as the last leap of the Dragon Gate, and Gu Wuchen is no exception. As a rule of thumb, if you can go to high school, you will not be able to pass the palace exam. No matter how bad your grades are, you are a top-three jinshi. Someone in the court took care of him, and the honor of a mansion is only a matter of ten or eight years, which is far better than being a petty official for a lifetime.
Gu Wuchen was so eager, Lin Fu wanted to shirk and was afraid of the cold, so he said that he would think about it after going to Jiangning. At this time, in order to offend the second son of the family, he was restless, and he had no intention of reading quietly in Dongyang.
Gu Siyuan, the son of Gu Wuchen, stood aside and peeked at Lin Bie's face, and his intention to shirk was very obvious. He just thought that he had no ambition, thinking that his so-called offending the second son of the family was just a fabricated lie. He probably knew his father's identity and helped him yesterday. Zhien went to Jiangning to find a fat messenger under the big tree of his father.
Gu Siyuan was worried about Lin Fu's tough quarrel with his family guard outside the tea hotel yesterday, but Lin Fu saw that it was a fact that the assassin was kind to his family, and he naturally had to suppress any complaints in his heart. Gu Siyuan just heard Yang Pu describe the fierce battle at the entrance of the village. It sounds obvious that Lin Fu deliberately lured his fellow assassins to the entrance of the village to besiege Gu's family to ask for credit. At this time, when he looked at Lin Fu's expression again, Gu Siyuan took him for granted as a figure of grace. The role of the newspaper, the gratitude to him has been very weak.
It is said that Gu Siyuan and Gu Yingxiu are cousins, Gu Yingxiu married Lin Tingxun as a concubine, Lin Fu wanted to call Gu Yingxiu aunt Gu Siyuan, and Gu Siyuan was also a generation older than Lin Fu, but Gu Wuchen and Gu's parents were present, during the conversation Without a seat for Gu Siyuan, Lin Fu was both a guest and a benefactor. He held Gu Wuchen's hand and sat in the main seat of the main room. Gu Siyuan was also very dissatisfied with this.
Yang Pu, Yang Pu's son, Yang Shi, and another guard in Tsing Yi all thought so. They didn't have a good feeling for Lin Fu, but they had to repay the kindness they received. They are also very enthusiastic, even if they have some disdain in their hearts, they dare not show it.
Gu Yingxiu changed clothes and came out, and greeted Gu Wuchen and the elders of Gu's family one by one. These elders of Gu's elders had spoken badly about Gu Yingxiu behind their backs before, thinking that Gu Yingxiu's marriage to Lin Tingxun as a concubine had corrupted the style of the Gu family's clan. If it wasn't for Gu Wuchen's insistence, none of these Gu parents would come and show up. After knowing that Gu Yingxiu was a servant in disobedience just now at the entrance of the village, Gu Yingxiu changed her clothes and came out to ask for the salute.
Lin Bie looked at it and thought that the elders of Gu's family were really unpopular. It was no wonder that after Brother Gu Wuchen fell, the Gu family quickly fell.
"Where's Xun'er, the savior is here, why can't she hide and thank her?" Gu Wuchen saw his wife and niece coming out of the back house, the daughter who was clamoring to go out all day and even disguised herself as a man. But he couldn't come out to meet the guests.
Gu sent her maid to run to the back house, and after a while, she saw Gu Wuchen's little girl blushing and awkwardly walking up to Lin Bie and bowing her body, thanking her in a soft voice: "Gu Junxun thanked Mr. Lin yesterday... Yesterday...the grace..." After finally plucking up the courage to say this, he shyly hid behind her mother Gu~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Seeing her like this, Lin Bie couldn't think of how he started yesterday. It was impossible for her to play soft bullets, but she couldn't peep at her in front of her father and brother, clan elders, and servants. Lin Fu could only sit and talk to Gu Wuchen there.
Gu Wuchen didn't expect Lin Fu, who was studying behind closed doors, to know how much of the world and the knowledge of the world. Although Lin Fu had a low status in front of him, the deputy envoy of Jiangdong, who was a fourth-grade official, Lin Fu was a guest and had a helping hand before him. Well, Gu Wuchen can't leave Lin Bie to other people to entertain, and besides, Gu Wuchen has nothing else to do today, but he is very interested in discussing poetry with him in a supportive attitude.
Although Lin Fu retains the original memory, he was very tired of poetry and prose for more than two months, and his level was not as good as before he went to Jiangning to take the test, not to mention showing off in front of Gu Wuchen, and made several jokes after talking. Fortunately, Gu Wuchen saw that his face was red and his ears were red and his forehead was oozing with fine sweat, so he was no longer embarrassed. He probably really knew that Lin Bie's attainments in poetry, calligraphy and classics were limited, so he only asked him to work harder when he went to Jiangning.
Gu Siyuan, Yang Pu and other Gu family members saw this scene in their eyes, and they all knew that Lin Bie's stomach was limited. After the robbery, it was much better than before. Lin Xu, who had returned from the calamity, showed decisiveness, courage, meticulousness, and strategy in just three days. She was the best man she had ever seen, and she was only aware of intrigue. Only then did Gu Yingxiu know that those who only knew poetry and scriptures were not worth relying on.
Zhou Pu didn't know anything about poetry, literature and scriptures. He was drowsy while listening, and he also sympathized with Lin Fu: how could he discuss this with this sour Confucian? , have a true temperament. My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
