Chapter Eighty-Seven: Father and Son Love
Seeing that he was just staring at himself and not speaking, Gu Chongqing didn't panic, smiled faintly, walked to the chair next to him, and spoke first.
"But what happened this morning?"
There was something important happening in the early dynasty, Pingyang Hou sighed calmly, that's it, in this Hou Mansion, his son can always be more than his own top of the incident, there is a big and small thing in the Su Ri, he is always used to ask his idea, thinking, Pingyang Hou inconsequential beginning.
"In the early dynasty, His Majesty still didn't say whether it was a war or a combination, but after the court, I went to the imperial study with Luohou, and His Majesty proposed to let the three princes go to Jizhou to sit in the town, and Yu Guozhang intended to donate rich military supplies, but asked Yu Fusang to personally escort him to Jizhou. ”
More or less, Gu Chongqing had some guesses, so this news was expected.
"Your Majesty didn't give the order to fight the main battle, or because of the lack of military supplies, I'm afraid that Kaneno won't give us so much time to prepare. ”
Pingyang Hou nodded, "Your Majesty came to visit His Royal Highness Zhaohua last night, and he has agreed with His Highness's idea, and instructed Luo Hou to prepare with me as soon as possible." ”
"It's for the best. Gu Chongqing smiled lightly, "In this way, even if Jin Ye sends troops, we will be able to prepare within ten and a half months, and the Yao family army will be able to resist it." ”
His calm and wise, Pingyang Hou knew very well in his heart, at this time, he opened the beginning, and he could also question some words.
"Brother Qing'er, do you want to lead your troops to the border pass. ”
Gu Chongqing's expression paused, and he looked at his father with a light smile and asked, "Father knows my thoughts, why do you ask like this?"
Pingyang Hou sighed, looked at him quietly and slowly spoke, "It's not Your Majesty, it's Luo Hou." ”
Luoyu.
Gu Chongqing smiled noncommittally, this old man didn't know why, but now he always seemed to target him.
"When Luo Hou asked me, I was very sure that now your mind is on His Royal Highness Zhaohua, her situation is not good, if it is not necessary, you are not willing to leave Yiyi City at this time."
"My father understands me. ”
Pingyang Hou nodded, then blinked, and shook his head decisively.
"I'm your father, and if I don't know you, I don't. But if I know your mind very well, I don't have that confidence. ”
"Father...", Gu Chongqing's thick eyebrows furrowed.
"Listen to me. Pingyang Hou raised his hand to stop him, and said directly, his expression was a little melancholy, "Gu Jiashi replaces the emperor in charge of military power, guarding the world, and military power has always been the most taboo and most valued power of the emperor, in order to let the emperors of the past dynasties rest assured to entrust, in order to ensure the safety of the family, only the eldest son can inherit the title, and the second son and the partial branch all moved back to the ancestral house after becoming a family, away from the city. When your father and I were young, because he was the eldest son, it was natural to inherit the great cause of the Hou Mansion, and your grandfather placed heavy expectations on me, and he took me with him to teach me since I was a child. As I grew older, your grandfather discovered that I was brave and inadequate. In fact, your second uncle is more like him than me, and there are some regrets in his heart. ”
Speaking of this, Pingyang Hou couldn't help but fall into memories.
Gu Chongqing frowned and said in a low voice, "My grandfather attaches great importance to my father, and he has taught me since I was a child. ”
Pingyang Hou smiled when he heard this, and shook his head lightly, "That's because your grandfather hopes that you will be able to surpass me and fulfill his expectations, so it's just an exaggeration." ”
"But the child has always kept it in his heart. Gu Chongqing said resolutely.
It is false to say that he is not pleased, and some of the things that Pingyang Hou is pressing in his heart are relieved, Gu Chongqing has always been the pride of his old father, and it is also his pride.
"Brother Qing'er, I tell you this, I know that you have a deep friendship with your grandfather and grandchildren, after you were three years old, he took you with him every day, when you were young, I and your mother could see you less than one-tenth of your grandfather's times, this is also his intention, he pinned my unmet expectations on you, he was afraid that I and your mother would be too spoiled by you, no matter how many times your mother cried and refused to let go, until later with Brother Lan, his health was not good, and your mother divided a lot of thoughts, which stopped. But because of this, when you grow up, your mother and I are not as intimate as Lan Ge'er and Qing Kite in our hearts, and we have a lot of guilt. ”
Gu Chongqing's heart did not fluctuate, some things he didn't know, but he knew the examples, and knew that he was destined to be different from his younger siblings for the Gu family.
"Fathers don't have to feel guilty about their children, no matter what, you and I are father and son, flesh and blood, and children will never have the slightest disagreement. ”
Pingyang Hou smiled bitterly, look, they get along with each other, like father and son, but not like father and son.
"I never told you that you are very much like your grandfather, more like your second uncle. ”
Gu Chongqing himself did not deny this, he felt that the topic between father and son was a little heavy today, so he opened his mouth to interrupt, "What happened to my father today?"
"Nothing. Pingyang Hou shook his head and sighed, "It's just that I suddenly found that as your father, I have never understood and can not see through what you think, want, and want, this is like when you occasionally went back to the house when you were young, I found an excuse to reprimand you, but you didn't say a word and didn't take it to heart at all, every time I feel that in front of you, I am more like a child who has not grown up." It wasn't until your grandfather died, because of the offense and dissent of your third uncle, that you stabbed him to death with a sword in front of your grandfather's coffin, that I realized that what I lost was not a son, but the future of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. ”
Gu Chongqing was speechless, his father reprimanded him when he was a child, he was just too lazy to speak, because he knew that he didn't make any mistakes, it was just that his father hadn't seen him for a long time, and he wanted to share a father-son family with him, but he was not good at this, and his father was just a mistake in desperation.
In fact, he was happy to listen to his father's reprimand, at least he felt that his father, who had not seen him for a long time, was thinking about him in his heart, not indulging him and ignoring him, which was better than anything else.
"Having said all this, I just hope you understand, although I can't know what you're thinking or what you're going to do, I'm always your father, and we, the people of the Gu family, whether it's right or wrong, will unanimously never hesitate to the outside world. ”
Gu Chongqing's heart was complicated, he lowered his eyes to block the rolling waves in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, father." ”
It was the first time he hung his head like this, like a real child, and Pingyang Hou couldn't help but smile, "Father and son don't say thank you." It's just that although I say this, it's because you and I are father and son, even if you cut your third uncle and ancestor, and then cut your fifth uncle and ancestor, I won't do anything to you. But Your Majesty is not necessarily, His Royal Highness Zhaohua has a heavy weight in his heart, he will occasionally show mercy to your subordinates for the sake of his daughter, but you must be clear, where is the emperor's bottom line, don't cross the line to challenge him, our Gu family can accompany you to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, but if you make a mistake, there will be no more possibilities with His Royal Highness Zhaohua. ”
He knows more or less that his son, once he believes in his heart, even if he turns the world upside down, he has to achieve it.
Gu Chongqing smiled slowly, "The child knows that he will not make it difficult for his father, nor will he put his family members in a difficult situation." After a pause, he said solemnly, word by word, "Thank you father for your trust." ”
Pingyang Hou waved his hand, stood up and said loudly, "Let's go, our father and son haven't had two drinks for a long time." ”
Gu Chongqing got up and said with a smile, "Today, the child will accompany his father without getting drunk and returning." ”
"Okay! Prepare wine!"
