Chapter 70: Persuasion (5 more is coming~)

Gu Qingwei still remembered the situation in his previous life. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Qin family took the first step by Qin Lang, and Qin Lang also fell for Tanhua, and later when people mentioned the Qin family, they all said that there was a Qin family who explored flowers.

With Qin Lang as the beginning, in the next forty years, the Qin family has poured out many outstanding children to enter the court through the imperial examination, and the family power not only did not weaken because of the change of dynasty and generation, but became more prosperous.

On the other hand, the Gu family and the rest of the five surnamed Qiwang families cling to the pride of the clan and enclosing the clansmen in the past glory drawn by themselves, although relying on the heritage of their ancestors will not show decline, but compared with the Qin family with the sign of prosperity, it is much worse.

Later, several other families also woke up and no longer clinged to useless pride, but in the end, they had fallen behind for so many years, and if they wanted to catch up with the Qin family, how could they do it for a while.

Gu Qingwei also understood at that time, since the general environment has changed, what is the use of the Gu family's insistence on not changing itself, only by better integrating into the new dynasty can it bring the Gu family the power of development.

At that time, there was an in-law of the Dingguo Mansion, which was quite important to the royal family, and the Gu family could have taken the lead, but it was just ......

Shaking his head secretly, throwing away those unpleasant memories, Gu Qingwei said again: "Father, Cousin Qin Lang will only be eighteen years old next year, if Cousin really wins the Jinshi next year, he can enter the court as an official, and he will enter the Shi at the age of eighteen, that is, when the family was prosperous in the past, how many people can cross him?"

"Moreover, the third brother has liked to read since he was a child, and he can be a talent without the teaching of a famous teacher, if your father is willing to give him this opportunity, maybe, the third brother can go out of another way like Cousin Qin Lang?"

"In the future, the eldest brother will be in charge of the family, and the third brother and the sixth brother will always have to be divided, and after a few generations, the Gu family will still be there, but in addition to the identity of a side branch of the Gu family, what can the brothers have left, and what can their descendants have? In this case, why not let the brothers have the possibility of taking another path? If this road is feasible, with the background of our Gu family, the children of the clan naturally do not have to worry about the cost of studying, as long as the children of the Gu family are willing to work hard, why worry about this road not working? When the time comes, why should the Gu family not be happy?"

……

Gu Qingwei said a lot.

Gu Jinyuan's face was solemn and a little complicated.

He couldn't believe that he was a little shaken by his daughter, who was less than ten years old.

The family has gone through the best era, although the process is slow, but if there are no other changes, the Gu family can really only decline little by little.

Since Gu Jinyuan took over the Gu family, he has been thinking about how to revive the family's prestige, but now, his youngest daughter has sent this method to him.

It's not that he didn't think about the imperial examination before, but he is the helmsman of the Gu family, and the pride of the children of the family has long been engraved into his blood and bones, and it is indeed extremely difficult to make him lower his head and raise his head for nearly forty years.

"Father, the so-called pride of the world, the premise is that the family is really strong enough to make people's hearts break, if we can only go to the end in the end, even if we keep that pride, what results can we get? Taking the road of the imperial examination does not mean bowing to anyone, after all, the rules have changed, adapt to the rules, and use the rules to seek immortal vitality for the family, is the most important thing. Gu Qingwei said without hurry.

In her previous life, she had been a duchess for decades, and she was in contact with the top magnates of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even so, it took her more than forty years to realize this.

Therefore, she really wanted to convince her father to let her family take this crucial step decades earlier than in her previous life.

Gu Jinyuan lowered his head and looked at the determined look on his daughter's face, "Sister Huan'er......"

Although he knew that his daughter was not a daughter of the boudoir who didn't know anything about the world after he came back from the Chang family some time ago, it wasn't until now that he really understood that when he didn't know, his delicate and ignorant daughter in his impression had grown to the point where he was amazed.

can take over the huge Gu family, Gu Jinyuan is not a person who can be easily persuaded, but it was Gu Qingwei who said this, which made him feel that even a little girl can see the key point in this, can he, as a father, really only be a stubborn and old-fashioned person?

"Sister Huan, why did you suddenly propose to let your third brother participate in the imperial examination?" he asked.

Just listening to Gu Jinyuan's words, Gu Qingwei knew that her father was already a little moved, she smiled and hugged Gu Jinyuan's arm, "Father, when Cousin Qin Lang asked you for advice, my daughter looked at the third brother with envy, plus the third brother likes to read since he was a child, he must be very hopeful that he can get out of his own way through reading." ”

Gu Jinyuan saw that Gu Qingwei was not revealing such a little daughter's attitude, and lightly tapped her nose, but for a while he sighed a little: "Your third brother has always been smart, but this temperament is too dull, even you know that there is something to tell your father directly, he obviously has such thoughts, but he is only secretly bored in his heart." ”

Gu Qingwei pursed his lips and smiled.

Where is the third brother dull, he is just a little afraid of his father.

Maybe my father didn't realize it, my father was busy with the affairs of the clan every day, even in front of his three elder brothers, he always had a serious face, and in the long run, let alone a few brothers, he was the most favored himself in his previous life, didn't he dare to get close to his father?

Rushing at Gu Jinyuan with a bright smile, Gu Qingwei said: "Then say so, does the father agree? The daughter will go and tell the third brother the news, the father can rest assured, this time the daughter will not spread the word from it, and the third brother will definitely let the third brother tell the father himself." ”

Then without waiting for Gu Jinyuan's reaction, he hurriedly gave a salute and rushed to chase after a few brothers.

Looking at his daughter's back, Gu Jinyuan shook his head lightly with a smile, and then secretly made up his mind.

Even a nine-year-old daughter can think so thoroughly, as a father, he determines the future of the Gu family, how can he let the family indulge in his senseless and even ridiculous self-esteem and pride?

Since the eldest brother can let Qin Lang take this step, then he can naturally let Brother An take this step.

As Sister Huan said, as long as Brother An has made achievements in the imperial examination, naturally there are many Gu children who want to emulate, and when there is a voice of Gu children in the court again, why can't the Gu family prosper?

Thinking of this, Gu Jinyuan completely lost his previous resistance to the imperial examination system, and only felt a sense of relief in his heart.

He is the helmsman of the Gu family, and any decision he makes must naturally consider the interests of the family first, as long as the family can prosper, why should he care about his personal likes and dislikes?

That's all.

Gu Jinyuan thought. (To be continued.) )
