Chapter 36: The Hundred Households of the Brocade Guard
"You are actually the people of the Ming Dynasty!" Gu Yanfeng took a deep breath and looked at the two people in front of him with complexity.
"We should say." Old Man Gu put away the golden scepter, clenched his fists and corrected to the south.
Gu Han explained to Gu Yanfeng: "The head of the family has made military merits in the Battle of Jingyan, and he is the hereditary hundred households of the Holy Imperial Pen Zhu Pi. ”
"Hereditary...... 100 households? Gu Yanfeng's mood was very complicated.
The selection of Jinyiwei during the Yongle period was extremely strict, not only could there be no one who had committed a crime in the ancestor, but also could not have such people among relatives, and then after complex screening and assessment to become Jinyiwei, and the hereditary system of Jinyiwei was only implemented in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, those who did not have major military merits would not be given the official position of hereditary households.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Gu did not show his face, but he actually participated in the Battle of Jingjing, and also made military merits, becoming the earliest hereditary hundred households of Jinyiwei.
Doesn't that mean......
He's going to take over the old man's class in the future?
"What, scared?" Old Man Gu slowly sat down on the Taishi chair behind the desk.
Gu Yanfeng shook his head, "It's not true, at most it's a little emotional." ”
Jin Yiwei is not unmixed in his previous life.
At the beginning, in order to get the superior martial arts of Jinyiwei, Gu Yanfeng had been mixed in Beizhen Fusi for three years, and even the commander Huangfu Yao had met more than once.
Honestly, the terrain of Jinyiwei.
Gu Yanfeng may be more familiar than Old Man Gu!
"When I was young, I also liked dancing and writing as much as you, but unfortunately I didn't get a fame, and I was just a poor and sour talent, and I was forced to join the Jinyi Wei Yamen for my livelihood, and I was lucky enough to make a little contribution in Jingnan." As if reminiscing about the past, Old Man Gu said slowly, "Akan is the son of my old man, and his father blocked the arrow for me during the Jingjing, so I have always taken him with me......
Gu Yanfeng listened quietly.
"More than 20 years ago, the Jinyi Wei Jiangling stronghold was uprooted by Ling Xue Pavilion, and I infiltrated Jingnan Province on the secret order of Jinyi Wei, responsible for rebuilding the intelligence network in the Jiangling area, and it was at that time that the Gu family moved into Jiangling ......"
Old Man Gu talked a lot.
Including what excuse they used to take root in Gangneung, and how they took the three clan uncles to lay down this family business.
Gu Yanfeng also had a preliminary understanding of the Gu family's secrets.
The old man is a hereditary hundred households, and Gu Han's military exploits accumulated over the years have also been promoted to the trial hundred households.
Just step into the innate .
can immediately fill the gap of hundreds of households.
Other than that, no one in the Gu family knew the secret.
The old man can tell him about it.
The intent is already clear.
What's more, Gu Yanfeng found that the old man's voice was getting weaker and weaker.
"Father, I'd better help you go to rest first." Gu Yanfeng looked at the old man in front of him with a complicated expression.
Although he didn't have any feelings for Old Man Gu.
Old Man Gu waved his hand and said calmly: "I know my body, not to mention that there are old injuries that have not healed, and I have also been poisoned by Ling Xue Pavilion's unique poison, and it is already a curtain of heaven to survive today." ”
"Ling Xue Pavilion's strange poison?" Gu Yanfeng's pupils shrank, and he immediately thought of the Wang family in his heart.
"Looks like you've heard of it, too."
"Today's Pengxiao wedding, in order to deal with Old Mo and them, I used a secret method to temporarily protect my heart, and when the true qi of my heart is dissipated, I should also go below to accompany your mother......" Speaking of Gu Yanfeng's biological mother, a trace of guilt flashed in Old Man Gu's eyes.
Gu Yanfeng was slightly stunned.
But looking at the state of the old man at the moment, it does have a bit of meaning to explain the future.
"As for the three of you." Old Man Gu sighed, shook his head and said, "Your brother has gone astray, and he can't blame others for this fate, but your brother is still young."
If you can, try to spare his life......"
Gu Yanfeng suddenly glanced at the three letters on the desk next to him.
The content of the epistle is much the same.
This is the secret letter that the old man is going to send to the headquarters of Jinyiwei!
The first letter was to let Gu Yanfeng take over the hereditary hundred households, the second letter was replaced by Gu Pengxiao, and the third letter was ...... Gu Han?
Gu Yanfeng suddenly understood.
It seems that the old man has not considered Gu Hexuan.
Old Man Gu seemed to know what he was thinking, and explained: "Hexuan's martial arts talent is good, but he is too young to carry such a burden. ”
yes, he's too small.
If the Gu family is just the Gu family.
There was no problem for this head of the family to let Gu Hexuan come and sit.
It's a pity that the Gu family is special.
At this time, Gu Han stepped forward and picked up the other two letters.
Throw it into a brazier and burn it to fly ashes.
Old Man Gu slowly raised his hand, pointed to the bookshelf and continued: "As for the surrounding bookshelves, there are all the archives of the past 20 years, remember to take a look at it after you take this burden, remember, don't be emotional!" ”
"And ......"
"The Gu family still hides a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, you have to be more careful not to be bitten by that poisonous snake!"
"As for the rest, I'll let Akan talk to you slowly."
"I'm sleepy, I need to sleep for a while......"
Old Man Gu sat on the Taishi chair and slowly closed his eyes.
His aura also gradually weakened.
Gu Yanfeng and Gu Yan looked at the old man in front of them speechlessly.
It seems that the old man has been ready for a long time.
Even if he doesn't make any trouble today, he will choose one of the three.
Took over the position of head of the Gu family.
Gu Han said: "Lang Jun doesn't have anything to ask?" ”
Gu Yanfeng waved his hand and said, "I'll talk about other things later, let the old man rest in peace first." ”
The two stood in the secret room for a long time.
Until the old man's breathing died away and his heartbeat stopped completely.
Gu Yanfeng suddenly turned around, looked at Gu Han and said in a deep voice, "You asked me just now, is there anything you want to ask?" ”
"Lang Jun, please speak." Gu Han nodded.
Gu Yanfeng stared at Gu Han's eyes, and suddenly said, "You say, can I trust you?" ”
Gu Han was stunned when he heard this, and he was speechless for a while.
Oh, yes!
Mr. Gu has partnered with him for more than 20 years.
I grew up with him since I was a child.
Needless to say, the old man trusted him.
But he has a cold nature, and he has not had much contact with the three Gu Yanfeng brothers, and Gu Yanfeng is about to take over the hundred households of Jinyiwei.
At that time, he will be his immediate boss.
If he can't be trusted by Gu Yanfeng, then how should he act in the future.
You can't go back to headquarters, can you?
looked at Gu Han's ever-changing face.
Gu Yanfeng patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "I don't mean anything else, I hope you don't think too much, the most important thing at the moment is to let the old man settle down." ”
As he spoke, Gu Yanfeng threw the key to Gu Han and stepped forward to pick up the old man's body.
Gu Han took the key to close the secret room.
The two of them left the secret room back and forth.
Gu Yanfeng put the old man on the Taishi chair in the study.
Patiently groomed him.
His fingers inadvertently pressed on the old man's pulse for a long time.
I'm sure the old man is really cold.
Gu Yanfeng straightened the corpse and said as he sorted it out, "Go and call the three clan elders." ”
"Whoa." Gu Han took the order and left.
