Chapter 661: Nobleman
"Strange?" Lu Shaoye raised his eyebrows: "I didn't think it was half unusual, but I thought it was very reasonable." ”
Indeed, very reasonable.
The famous family is extremely glorious, even if it is a side branch, if it is a side branch, if it is a family, it will also be stained with some luxury, so that others will look up to it.
Even if it is employed in the imperial court, some additional children of the family will be selected as officials every year, and I don't know how much less sad road it has taken than the children of the poor family.
It is also because of these reasons that the family pays attention to the teaching of its children, and the genealogy of many families is even close to the national eunuch.
And the reason for letting the children go out of office, in addition to the imperial decree, the emperor's favor, and the continuation of the glory of the family, naturally there are other reasons.
The successive generations of families, countless industries, capable people, when the glory is even more so that the family has the power of self-preservation, so even after the emperor changed hands, the country changed its surname, it is still standing.
It is precisely because of this that the family is working harder and harder to make people prosperous, so that the interpersonal relationship is intertwined, even if the emperor has the intention of moving the family, but he cannot hurt the foundation and let the family have the goods of ruin.
All families think about it like this, so they keep sending people to the court as officials.
However, this kind of thinking is not only in the family, but also in the imperial court, and even more so in the emperor.
The power of the family is so great that in many cases, it has affected some of the emperor's measures to a certain extent, and even when there are sometimes decrees that are too unfavorable to the family, they will be jointly signed by the family, which has the meaning of gathering the power of all the families to put pressure on the emperor.
Since the family can already make the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven naturally has the intention of moving the family.
When the emperor ascended the throne for a short time, he was no longer young when he ascended the throne, but it was precisely because of this that the city was quite deep, and naturally he also had some skill and courage.
Among them, there is naturally the meaning of suppressing the family.
The emperor's meaning is clear, the family is naturally not stupid, it can be inherited for many years, it has endured, and it is naturally able to bend and stretch, and each of them is no longer as sharp as before, and most of them are honest.
Speaking of which, among the eight major families, most of them have been faulted by the emperor and have disposed of some children, and the only one who survived was the Gu family.
The Gu family originally had a small population, few heirs, except for some side branches, there were very few people as officials, only An'an divided into business, the annual tax and silver paid to the court was very rich, not to mention, every year drought in the north, floods in the south, most of them contributed money and efforts, but they also played the banner of the imperial court, never proud of their achievements.
Such a humble and indisputable attitude naturally won the emperor's love, and the emperor even praised the Gu family for serving the people wholeheartedly, and personally wrote a word to hang on the main hall of the Gu family to show glory.
The Gu family can be like this today, and it is estimated that it is also related to the Gu family's experience.
I heard that at the time of the previous dynasty, the Gu family was prominent for a while, ranking second among the eight major families, and the power was monstrous, but because of the high position, it attracted many suspicions from the emperor, and finally took action to rectify it.
It is estimated that because of this matter, the Gu family has been a businessman since then, and no longer asks about anything in the court, let alone let their children become officials.
Because of this, the Gu family gradually moved away from officialdom, so that the second son of the dignified Gu family is also so humble when he sees him, a fourth-grade official.
Everything can be said to have advantages and disadvantages, although the glory is not there, but compared to the wrath of the saints from time to time, this Gu family can be said to have avoided many disputes and troubles in the past few decades, but it is also happy, but to a certain extent, it shows that the Gu family's ancestral teachings have some usefulness.
It's just that......
In the end, the Gu family was not able to avoid the scourge of extermination.
Some disputes and disasters do not mean that you can stay away, you can stay away, as long as you are born as a human being, some things have to be involved.
In addition to sighing about the Gu family, he taught Lu Shaoye to think of his parents who died early, and he couldn't help clenching his fists.
You'an saw that Lu Shaoye looked displeased, and thought that what he had said was not good, so he stopped and didn't dare to speak anymore, so he silently continued the sour plum soup that Lu Shaoye saw in front of him.
Gu Changling returned to the table, and Gu Changfeng was still eating happily.
Seeing that his second brother's expression was a little colder than before when he came back, he was suddenly very surprised: "Second brother's face is so ugly? Didn't that man say something unpleasant? ”
Gu Changling didn't answer his words, but asked rhetorically, "Have you finished eating?" ”
This made Gu Changfeng frown.
To tell the truth, he still wants to eat a little more, because whether it is hot pot or food, everything tastes so good that he wants to stuff it into his stomach.
However, he was full now, and even a little stretched, feeling that if he had just burped, he would vomit out the sour plum soup he had just drunk.
Moreover, obviously looking at Gu Changling a little impatient, Gu Changfeng thought for a moment, and then decided to put down his chopsticks: "I'm full." ”
"Then let's go." Gu Changling stood up, beckoned the little guy on the side to count the money, and he and Gu Changfeng stood up and walked out.
When passing by Lu Shaoye's table, he saw Lu Shaoye eating with his head bowed, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't speak, but slowly went downstairs.
It seems that if you want to get through this relationship with Lu Shaoye, you still have to work hard in the future.
Gu Changling thought about it, raised his feet and walked out.
When I passed by the door, I heard laughter and laughter.
It's not noon now, and there aren't many people in the hot pot restaurant, except for the two tables on their upper floor, and now there are only two tables of people in the front hall on the next floor, and one of the tables is the one that makes a loud laugh, and it's the one where that person is.
Gu Changling's gaze couldn't help but linger on the table for a moment.
Yes, I was still thinking about finding out where this young man was, so I came here to see if it was useful, but now I haven't talked to the young man, but I met Lu Shaoye first.
Moreover, looking at the appearance of the young master, it seems that he has a lot to do with Lu Shaoye.
Just to take a look at him, he coincidentally bumped into Lu Shaoye, a key person, and this young man may become the key person for him to open Lu Shaoye's pass in the future.
Sure enough, this is the noble man in the dream.
No, maybe it wasn't a dream, just like before, he only thought he had a nightmare, and the tragic things he saw in the nightmare were just a foreshadowing from God, but when he gradually regained his memory, he realized that these were real things that had happened, and that he had personally experienced disasters.
