In more than 20 years of life, Ke Mingxu has rarely been as angry as he is today. He never imagined that his grandfather, whom he had always respected and admired the most, would calculate him in such a way.

After returning from the Xie family's boat, he sat in the room for a long time, and finally calmed down his fluctuating mind after hearing the little county lord's unintentional words.

Since the eighteenth year of Zhaoyong, he won the champion and officially entered the court as an official, he soon got the blue eyes of Jinshang, even if he is just a little Hanlin, there has never been a lot of eyes on him.

Behind him is the Ke family after all, and part of the Xie family, he is the grandson of Master Ke who is proud.

The first emperor once said with a smile that his grandfather "had no way to teach his son". Indeed, his grandfather was an emperor's teacher, and even the emperor could teach him, but his two sons have always been idle and have made no achievements in political affairs.

But fortunately, there is also his grandson, who has won the top prize, and the Ke family finally has a successor. But he gradually realized that this was not the future of the Ke family that his grandfather imagined, and it was impossible to achieve that kind of future by him alone.

The King of Yongning County seems to be an indispensable part at present, and so is the Xie family. Those who stared at him knew that he had asked for a long leave of absence from the Hanlin Academy, just to celebrate the birthday of our grandfather, and they would not believe it.

Therefore, they will think that he went down to Jiangnan to hand over the birthday gift prepared by his grandfather to his grandfather, who has resigned for many years, but is still a very influential grandfather of the Xie family, who was born as a literati leader in Jiangnan.

Even if I couldn't remember it at the time, when I remembered it after the incident, I felt that it would be the case. It was he who made the Xie family stand on this side.

He had taken the boxes from his grandfather, and he knew that they would not be very good, so he never wanted to know what was inside, and without looking at them, he pressed them to the bottom of all the birthday gifts.

Whatever it was, he wanted to dissociate himself from them. He went to Jiangnan just to fulfill his mother's wish, and he couldn't disobey his grandfather.

But he forgot that he had been unable to dissociate himself from them since he had received this birthday gift.

So he had to see what was inside.

By the time he finally finished reading it, it was already the middle of the moon. He looked up to look out the window, but found that the clouds covered the moon, which was not a beautiful sight.

From the time he heard some shadowy words with unknown meanings from Bi Niang, he had already sensed that something was wrong and began to test his grandfather's mind.

Temptation came and went, and in the end his grandfather simply confessed to him, he was going to do what those chaotic ministers and thieves did, blocking his own reputation, and the lives of all the Ke family, to change a title.

He said, "Grandfather is old, and he will soon be able to shelter you anymore. ”

"My grandfather was wise and gave birth to a son, but he was such a failure. I finally cultivated a you, but it is difficult to support you alone, who can guarantee that you will be like your grandfather in the future? Your sons and grandsons can be like you? ”

"Civil officials have always been self-righteous and disdain to associate with the powerful, but is that really because they are of noble character?"

"You should know very well that there are a few civil servants who are real literati, and most of them are just people who seek fame and reputation, but they are afraid that they will be too close to the powerful, and they will not be able to restrain their hearts."

"They don't dare, but my grandfather has to fight, and if he can fight for a hereditary dukedom, he doesn't have to worry about the future descendants not succeeding and the family will decline."

He just thought it was ridiculous. Grandfather, who thought he had been wise all his life, was just caught in the quagmire of another desire. He stands taller than others, but his ideas are more stupid than those who can't stand in this position.

In all dynasties, the descendants have not become instruments, cut down the lord and imprisoned, and the magnates who have robbed their families and exterminated their families?

In the previous dynasty, there was the Marquis of Jinxiang, and in this dynasty, there were Marquis Chengyi and Marquis Wuning, so couldn't my grandfather see what happened to them? If the descendants are not successful, whether it is a powerful person or a clear stream, the outcome is the same, and nothing can guarantee the wealth for thousands of years.

Under the imperial power, in fact, there is no need for any reason at all, whether it is a powerful person or a clear stream, they must tremble and be cautious, it is the same.

There was a letter in that box, unsigned and unmarked, and it was full of rebellious words. My grandfather wanted to borrow the power of my grandfather's family in Jiangnan, because that day would not be far away.

There is no signature and imprint, but because he personally brought it out from Yanjing and handed it over to his grandfather, that is, he is already endorsing the letter, and his grandfather will not doubt it.

Grandfather's plan was to kill two birds with one stone, and as long as he handed this letter to his grandfather, even if he realized that something was wrong in the future, it would be pointless to question him again.

He was the bond between the two Koschers, and he was pulled into this boat by his grandfather in his ignorance, and he never thought about it again, never again. He can only support his approach, and it is impossible to escape.

The image of his grandfather in his heart, once as tall as Mount Tai, is now peeled off piece by piece, and the mountain collapses. He was no longer alive in his heart.

He wouldn't let him get his way.

After returning to the room, he never went out again. Dinner was delivered twice, from a delicacy to a leftover cooked twice.

They were all sent in by the small county lord, and no one paid so much attention to his feelings. The first time dinner was brought in, there was a note in the food box, asking him if he could let Hui Feng move here.

She wanted to move everything over as if they were going to live here for thousands of years.

He casually wrote "yes" on a slip of paper and asked someone to send it out. The second time the food box was delivered, it turned into a painting, and the painting was messy, and the words were written in a mess.

It took him a long time to recognize it as a monster mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", named "Gluttony".

It is a vicious and gluttonous beast in ancient legends, and it can be seen that she has tried her best to paint it cute, like the five poisons embroidered on the purse she gave him during the Dragon Boat Festival last year.

So she wanted to tell him to eat well? What a strange train of thought. His mind gradually calmed down as he struggled to identify what she was drawing.

He once wanted to resign, but then walked away and ran away. His grandfather, who was connected to him by blood, was plotting these things, and what kind of face and confidence could he have to implement his ideals.

But once he is gone, it means that he will have nothing, watch his family die, and no longer be able to protect innocent people.

He wouldn't be so cowardly, and he shouldn't be.
