Chapter 485: Heat
"You kid, you say you're smart, but you always say stupid things." Grandma Gu San smiled at Gu Yilan, her attitude was relaxed and freehand, as if she didn't listen to her daughter's words at all: "Your grandfather is a scholar of Duanming Palace, when he is a first-class scholar, the Son of Heaven is a close minister, although your father's official position is not high at the moment, but the future is very good, although your uncles are not as good as your father, but with your grandfather, it will be good in the future." Our Gu family is not worse than several powerful families in Beijing, King Yi and King Xin are in a hurry to win over our Gu family, how can our family not have the right to choose? ”
Grandma Gu San said these words quite confidently and proudly, her husband has a bright future at the moment, she is really high-spirited, and feels that the Gu family, especially her husband, has a bright future.
I have to say that although Gu Yilan, who was reborn in the first life, is not close to Gu San's grandmother, she also knows her own mother well enough. Gu San's grandmother's answer, she was not surprised at all. She deliberately showed a little worry on her face, and sighed softly, but her attitude was not exaggerated.
"Maybe it's because my daughter is worried," Gu Yilan said: "Mother is right, after all, grandfather is a close minister of the Son of Heaven. So even if it...... Alas! Hopefully, as the mother said, the daughter is just worrying. ”
"What?" Grandma Gu San replied casually. With a smile on her face, she didn't seem to expect any useful information from the mouth of her daughter, who was married to the Duke of Anguo.
"Actually, my mother reminded me just now, if it wasn't for my mother mentioning it, my daughter would never have thought of this section." Gu Yilan first put a high hat on Gu San's grandmother**: "Sister Xie is also eighteen, I'm afraid she will get married soon, if she really marries King Yi, the Xie family will choose King Yi." ”
"Isn't that obvious!" Grandma Gu San smiled, looking a little confused, she felt that her daughter had completely said nonsense.
"It's obvious." Gu Yilan replied: "When the time comes, there will be the Xie family and the Li family standing behind King Yi, what does it have to do with our Gu family?" Even if your grandfather also chose King Yi, but think about it, if King Yi ascends to the throne in the future, in terms of relationship with King Yi, which one of Xie Xiang and Li Xiang is not in front of his grandfather? The Xie family is the queen's mother, and Li Xiang is the first to support King Yi, where does his grandfather go? There is only one position for the first assistant. Right now, Lord Xiao Xie and his father are in the household department, Lord Xiao Xie has a bright future, and everything is pressing on his father, think about it, if he really becomes the prince's father-in-law......"
Grandma Gu San stopped talking. She reached out and grabbed the jade ornament on the table, rubbed it vigorously a few times, and then frowned.
"What is better than my father, Lord Xie?" Gu Yilan seemed to be unhappy in her heart, and muttered in a low voice.
"It's all fate." Grandma Gu San sighed softly: "The king of Yiyi has taken a fancy to Miss Xie Si, what can we do." It seems that in the future, the position of this auxiliary prime minister will be none other than Prime Minister Xie. ”
"Mother thinks so?" Gu Yilan shook her head: "My daughter doesn't see it that way!" In her daughter's opinion, if King Yi marries Sister Xie, I am afraid that the first and auxiliary prime minister will not be Xie Xiang but Li Xiang. Of course, the Xie family will naturally be good in the future. ”
"But why is that?" Grandma Gu San was slightly stunned: "Could it be that King Cheng Yi does not support the ready-made Yue family, but wants to arch Li Xiang to the top position?" ”
"Mother thinks," Gu Yilan smiled slightly: "If King Yi is on the throne, the Xie family will be the queen's mother family in the future, how can the emperor rest assured that the queen's own grandfather will be the first assistant?" Isn't this watching your relatives grow bigger! Moreover, if Sister Xie really becomes the queen, according to Xie Xiang's knowledge, where will she compete with Li Xiang for the position of first assistant? He was still counting on relying on Sister Xie to make his Xie family eternal glory, how could he care about the gains and losses at this time. ”
"But yes, but according to what you say, thank you for not fighting, the old man in our family will have a chance." Grandma Gu San immediately smiled: "If you really talk about it, Li Xiang's qualifications are still worse than your grandfather!" ”
"Mother, don't forget, Li Xiang has been King Yi's person from the beginning," Gu Yilan replied: "This matter is known to everyone in the Manchu Dynasty, in the eyes of King Yi, except for Xie Xiang, who can be more than him?" Grandfather, together with Xie Xiang and Lord Wang, are all in a wait-and-see attitude at the moment, but Li Xiang has long been clear in support of King Yi! If the Xie family and King Yi's family affairs are completed, and then the grandfather makes a decision, how can King Yi not know that our Gu family is just judging the situation. In the eyes of a king, seniority could not be more important than loyalty? ”
"Alas!" Grandma Gu San sighed heavily: "That's such a reason! If you want me to say, the old man of our family is too cautious, looking ahead and looking backward in everything, he delayed your father's future before, but now it's good, even his own future has been delayed, and this good opportunity has been missed. ”
"Grandfather also has grandfather's considerations." Gu Yilan smiled: "The two of us are just gossiping at home." This King Yi is on the throne, and Li Xiang is the first and auxiliary prime minister! Who knows if he will be able to become the crown prince? This is a battle for storage positions, if you stand on the wrong team, you will lose your head, so you should be very careful. ”
The daughter just sighed that her grandfather was actually difficult. On the surface, it seems that the grandfather is a product of the dynasty, and he can continue to wait and see and choose his own position. But in fact, our Gu family really doesn't have much choice. The one who really has the right to choose is the Xie family. Sister Xie and King Yi's family affair has become a success, and the Xie family is the future queen mother's family, if it doesn't work, the Xie family still believes in the queen's mother family, and whoever chooses is right. But our family ...... Alas! ”
Gu Yilan didn't finish her words, but the meaning of these words, Grandma Gu San actually understood. Gu Yilan wanted to tell Grandma Gu San that if the Gu family wanted to go with the flow and keep them safe, then they could naturally continue to wait and see, they did have a choice, and it was not too late to make a decision when the situation was clear.
But if the Gu family wants to go further, if they want to strive for greater power and glory, then there is no choice! By King Yi's side, there is no place with the surname Gu. They also don't have much time to hesitate and have to get involved in the battle early in order to steer the results in the direction they want.
Gu Yilan is very smart, and she stops when she clicks. There were some things she couldn't say explicitly. A gentle sigh, like a married daughter, worried about the future of her mother's family in her spare time, but not too positive. Because...... After all, as the daughter-in-law of the Anguo Mansion, even if the Gu family falls, she Gu Yilan can be left alone.
After all, everyone knows that the daughters-in-law of the Anguo Mansion really don't need a strong maiden background to rely on, so they care too much about the political fate of their mother's family, which seems false.
