Chapter 114: The Traveler's Home
With the sound of wheels, he left Jinling City and was heading north. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The scenery along the road is beautiful, but further north it becomes a depression.
The North and the South are just different.
Gu Zizhong also felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.
Li Nanyu looked at the uncomfortable appearance of the county lord and gave her a move.
Leaving the boundary of Jiangsu, and then going north to Henan, and then to Hebei, it is not far from the capital.
Gu Zizhong seemed to be eager to see Zhu Shizi.
So that she can rest assured.
My mother said that there were relatives and friends of the Gu family in Kaifeng, Henan, who was the champion of the imperial examination that year, and later held a high official position in the cabinet.
However, this relative and friend is also a transparent person, who has seen through the world, maybe he is also old, and he can see everything.
So that's it.
His name is Wu Ciyun.
When he entered the capital and became the champion, he threw himself under the Gu family.
So it's also the person who was raised by the Gu family.
That is the character raised by Gu Wangye's father.
Gu's mother has to be called "big brother" when she sees everyone!
Gu Zizhong muttered in his heart, will this Uncle Wu know something?
Maybe it's something about the imperial court.
Curious, she got out of the carriage with her family.
As soon as I got down, I found that the carriage had stopped in front of a large mansion.
I heard that the Wu family relied on the little money that Master Wu took care of in the future and sold calligraphy and paintings to make a living.
It seems quite pitiful to say, but at first glance, Gu Zizhong looks like this life should be good.
Sure enough, as soon as their family was personally invited into the house by Master Wu, they saw a sumptuous meal on the table.
After many days of traveling, I haven't eaten so much delicious food in a long time.
Gu Zizhong and Li Nanyu temporarily forgot the identity of their girls' families.
I buried my head and ate it in a big gulp.
Gu Mu and Gu Shizi watched them snickering from the sidelines.
It's true that there are no outsiders in this room, otherwise people will have to laugh off their big teeth.
They ate for a while before Master Wu came over with his family.
The family saluted the Gu family first.
Gu's mother hurriedly went to help Master Wu up, and said politely: "Eldest brother, my sister has lived here, we should thank you, what do you say you are doing?"
Master Wu said in a hoarse voice, obviously his body was already very weak, but he still held on: "Mrs. Gu is also commensurate with her respectful appearance, so I am really embarrassed about my little life." ”
Is he still a "little student" when he is so old?
Gu's mother didn't argue anymore, just stared at Master Wu's face quietly, and just sighed and said, "Alas, I haven't seen you for many years, and you are a lot haggard." People still can't stand the wear and tear of time. ”
Master Wu also began to relax, and smiled loudly: "Mrs. Gu, you are too." We're all old. ”
Gu's mother and Master Wu introduced their children.
Speaking of Gu Shizi, Gu's mother talked eloquently, looking very proud.
It seems that in my mother's heart, my brother still has a lot of weight.
Could it be that Gu Zizhong was really wrong in her previous life? She always felt that in the eyes of everyone, her brother was an idealist.
Now it doesn't seem to be!
When Gu's mother introduced her daughter, her statement was also impassioned.
Master Wu also praised Gu Zizhong again and again.
Praise her for being beautiful, beautiful, well-cultivated, and knowledgeable......
There is no need to say much about this, Gu Zizhong has long been impatient to hear people's praise.
So she's proud of that.
After the polite words, everyone began to eat.
The Wu family can also be regarded as a thriving person.
Many of the descendants of the Wu family held official positions in various places.
Master Wu's youngest son is still in the capital, and he has become the emperor's imperial guard in the palace.
This is also a glorious thing.
Gu's mother praised other people's sons, saying that there were capable people in other families, and she also persuaded them to walk around with the Gu family more in the future.
The Wu family still can't wait to tie up with the Gu family!
The Gu family also needs to build their own network as soon as possible.
Especially in the capital.
The big guys help each other out, and you can't go wrong.
As soon as she thought of this, Gu's mother was a little more worried.
I don't know what the master should do in the capital now.
Gu Zizhong also misses Zhu Shizi.
However, listening to the conversation between my mother and this Uncle Wu, it seems that Uncle Wu knows a little more about things in the capital.
Gu Zizhong took advantage of the confusion of everyone's toasts, and deliberately raised his wine glass in front of Master Wu.
She first flattered Master Wu, and then asked in a low voice: "Although Uncle has already been a scholar, Uncle must still know a little about all kinds of things in the capital, right?"
Master Wu naturally nodded.
Gu Shizi also came over to listen.
Master Wu was still a little happy, raised his arms high and said, "Now that Master Gu has also become the first assistant, the official position in the cabinet can be regarded as big, right? Master Gu has become the backbone of the imperial court." This incident has alarmed our Gu family officials everywhere. ”
This is the first time this has happened, who doesn't know?
Gu Zizhong didn't want to ask this.
She wanted to ask what the situation in the imperial court was, and it would be even better if Master Wu knew about the Zhu family in Jinling.
Although I can't see Zhu Shizi's face, it's always good to listen to it.
Listen to people's names, listen to people's things.
Gu Zizhong even felt full of joy.
Maybe that's how it feels to like someone.
She pricked up her ears and listened earnestly.
Master Wu immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from the county lord, I know that after our Lord Gu became the first assistant, he has done a lot of important things, and those things have now alarmed the court, and the emperor secretly praises him!"
Really?
But the one surnamed Yan has been threatening the Gu family with his father!
Is it?
Gu Zizhong and his brother stared at each other tacitly, looking at each other, but they both had surprised expressions.
Gu Shizi thought for a while, and then asked, "What did that father do in the capital?"
Master Wu seemed to be demented and thought for a while, and then continued: "Although it has harmed the interests of some people, it has still won the appreciation of most people. ”
It's impossible, if you don't give it to others when it's time to give it out, will people give up?
The war on the frontier is tight, the treasury is empty, and the officials have nothing to take, so don't you complain?
Who will stand up and praise my father at this time?
This Master Wu is lying.
Gu Zizhong didn't believe it.
Alas......
It seems that after so many years, his sycophants have not diminished at all.
Gu Zizhong and his brother didn't want to hear this.
She knew that her status was higher than his, so she simply said bluntly: "Uncle, our brother and sister came to ask you because they trusted you." Don't fish in troubled waters. ”
