Chapter 55: Behind the Marriage

Yu Guogong came out of the palace and returned to Liufang Hutong, and as soon as he entered Fu'anju, he met Yu Zidu at the door.

"Grandfather." Yuzi bowed his hand.

Under the sunset, Yuzi's handsome facial features were haloed, and his eyebrows and eyes were the same as those of Mao Xiang, and there was a little shadow of his deceased grandmother.

Suddenly, Yu Guogong seemed to see the last time he saw his eldest son Yu Maoxiang leave the day, it was also in the evening, and it was also at the door of Fu'anju, he knelt in the sunset, telling himself that he and the Jin family had been doing a family affair outside, and the Jin family was pregnant, and begged himself for the last time to fulfill him and the Jin family. Yu Guogong has forgotten how he answered at that time, he only remembered that he kicked his son in a fit of anger, he vomited a mouthful of blood at that time, and then he was so cruel that he didn't even look at him, and asked him to roll away with the Jin family, and never appear in front of him again......

Later, he regretted it. Mao Xiang went and really didn't come back. Although the people who heard the news later and Zi said that Mao Xiang died of an emergency. But he often wonders if his son's death so early was caused by his own kick back then.

It's just that it's too late to say anything now, and my son will never come back......

Looking at Yu Zidu, Yu Guogong couldn't help but think that although the eldest son was gone, fortunately, the grandson was still there. In any case, he could not afford to lose his grandson again.

Yu Guogong looked at Yu Zidu for a long time before he took the lead and said, "If you have anything to say, come into the house and say!" Yu Zidu followed Yu Guogong into the main room as he said.

"You're here to explain to me what happened in front of the temple today? , Yu Guogong no longer expressed his frustration and helplessness when talking to his daughter in Ci'an Palace, and sat on the chair of the head of the Taishi sè condensed, and the faint coercion of the superior made the surrounding people silent.

Yuzi looked at his grandfather, and the smile of the chún corner was gentle as usual, "Grandfather went out on patrol with the Queen Mother", and arranged for his grandson and Zhou Danniang to meet by chance in the bookstore, and this kind of kindness was appreciated by the grandson. As for the grandson who disobeyed your will in the temple this time, he must give you an explanation. There was not a trace of resentment and dissatisfaction in the calm words, but there was no gratitude or other deep meaning contained in them, only the respect and politeness that a junior should have.

This tepid attitude made Yu Guogong feel even more aggrieved, and he couldn't get out of the fire in his heart.

"The old man fought with the ancestor in his early years, and the killing was too heavy, so it has always been difficult for the heirs.

finally had your father and your second uncle, but both of them passed away early, and now my Yu family only has you and the two seedlings left, why don't you make my old man anxious? You are the grandson of the long house, the grandfather of the country in the future, I don't ask you to be heard in the world, but I beg me to live in my lifetime, and our Yu family will not be cut off.

What is the girl of the Zhou family who is not worthy of you? "Yuzi knows his grandfather's heart knot, this is not his own heart knot. Jin has the grace of giving birth and raising to him, and has a deep mother-son relationship, Yu Guogong is also a blood relative to him, when his father ran away with his mother, his grandfather was sadder than anyone else. He is a good husband to his mother and father, but he is not a filial son to his grandfather.

The men of the Yu family are all bold and stubborn people, but they are not self-relenting people. He remembered the pride of his father when he mentioned his grandfather when he was a child, and the unspeakable sigh of guilt, and he remembered that his father said that he had no face to go back, and that maybe one day he should be asked to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. So, when his grandfather wanted to take him back to Beijing, he agreed. For his father's wishes, for his mother's dying entrustment, he returned to the Chengguo Mansion and did his filial piety for his father by his grandfather's side, so he would also take over the responsibilities that should have been borne by his father.

However, he does not agree with the idea of strengthening the family position through marriage, "and will not give up the right to choose for the sake of so-called responsibility." Responsibility is responsibility, marriage is marriage, and there is no need to mix the two, although the marriage of people like theirs has long been closely linked to the interests of the family. Perhaps inheriting the stubborn insistence in the Yu family's bones, he didn't like others to make decisions for him, so he opposed his grandfather's decision to decide his marriage without his consent.

What's more, "in his eyes, the Zhou family is not a good match for him."

Yu Zidu looked at Yu Guogong, shook his head and said, "It's not that Miss Zhou is not worthy of her grandson, but that the Guogong Mansion wants to marry, and the Zhou family is not suitable." ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? Yu Guogong raised his eyes and looked at his calm grandson, puzzled.

"Elder Li Ge resigned last year, and among the remaining three elders, Qin Ge is already old, and he will definitely pay tribute to him in less than two years. Zhou Kang and Fan Zengming are expected to join the cabinet. Fan Zengming was born in the Hanshi, but he was a well-known figure among the folk Qingliu scribes, and his "words" on politics were very appreciated by the emperor, and he was even appointed to enter the Hanlin Academy, and his entry into the cabinet was just around the corner. Besides, Fan Zengming's personal disciple Wang Yang, the ancestor of the Wang family was born in a businessman, and in just a dozen years, there was a shìlang and a governor, although the background is not as good as those of those noble families, but after Wang Yang and Yongningbo married, the value of the Wang family rose for a while. Sun Er believes that after Fan Zengming enters the cabinet, Wang Han will not just stop with the governor. And the emperor's appointment of Wang Yang as a Jishi is even more intriguing. ”

What about Zhou Kang?

Yu Guogong stroked his beard lightly, and his expression changed slightly. frowned and pondered Yu Zidu's words.

"Zhou Kangcai is outstanding in learning, and he is also an ambitious and capable person. He himself was born in a scholarly family, has been an official in his family for generations, and is a protégé of Qin Ge Lao, so such a background is both capital and disadvantage for him. His foundation in the court is deeper than that of Fan Zengming, since the emperor ascended the throne,

Successive cabinet elders are also such figures. Although the emperor relies on his ministers, from the bottom of his heart, the emperor is more willing to use people like Fan Zengming than Zhou Kang, and naturally he will not want Zhou Kang to rely on more forces behind him. ”

Yu Zidu saw that his grandfather had been contemplating his eyebrows, so he paused, and when his grandfather looked up at him, he continued: "The emperor is a well-known filial son, and he respects the queen mother, and may be hindered by the queen mother, and reluctantly agrees to the marriage between the Yu family and the Zhou family, but this is by no means what the emperor is happy to see." Therefore, as soon as the grandson mentioned choosing his own relatives today, the emperor allowed the grandson's invitation. ”

Yu Guogong nodded in agreement, "What you say also makes some sense." ”

Yu Zi knew that the old man no longer minded, and said at the moment: "You choose the Zhou family to marry, do you value the old Qin Ge, Zhou Kang will definitely enter the cabinet, I want to find a powerful Yue family for me, don't bury your talents"

Yu Guogong didn't answer, and nodded lightly as a tacit acquiescence.

"If I really marry the Zhou family and let the emperor have a gap, I am afraid that I will not be able to make great achievements in the court in this life, and I can only eat the emperor's rice for a lifetime."

Yu Zidu's face was still calm, but his eyes became deep, as if there was a Wanzhang bō Tao that was about to gush out under the calm sea, "It is not appropriate to enter the court at my current age, so I will refuse to be sealed by His Royal Highness that day." Moreover, one day, if I want to enter the court, it will not be because of the prince of the country, the nephew of the queen mother, the cousin of the emperor, and I will not rely on the support of the Yue family or the shadow of the ancestors, just because I am Yu Zidu. "Yu Zi is introverted and gentle, and it is rare for such strong ups and downs to occur.

The ancestor of the Yu family was born as a military general, and Yu Guogong was known for his iron and blood in the army, he was bold and upright, he did not like cumbersome political affairs, and he did not know the way of being an official, which was also an important reason why Emperor Sejong would choose his daughter to enter the palace as the queen. He has come to where he is today with his passion. Although I don't participate much in the politics of the DPRK, and I don't know much about the twists and turns in the stomach of the Chinese officials in the DPRK, and I can't see the deep meaning behind some things, the reason is still clear at all.

He listened to his grandson's words that were not like grandiose words but better than grandiose words, and looked at his grandson's confident smile and firmness in his eyes, as if he saw the scene when he was young and vowed to become famous on the battlefield, and his mood couldn't calm down for a long time. On the one hand, his grandson was so thoughtful at a young age, which made him secretly surprised. On the other hand, his determination made him feel very gratified, and he liked the most ambitious man for half his life, and his grandson's words spoke to his heart.

"Good. Back then, your father was not a man with great ambitions, and he didn't want to study literature in the army, but he wanted to be comfortable. Although I didn't like it, I didn't stop it, anyway, it was to keep my business, and it wasn't a chaotic era of fighting and killing all day long, so I went with him. Our Yu family has produced a great general, but there has never been a great prime minister, since you kid has such ambition, then mix it up and show it to your grandfather! ”

Yuzi smiled and promised: "Grandson, remember the teachings of grandfather!" ”

"Hmmm! Today's thing is that my grandfather is anxious, you are still young, and your family affairs can be delayed. Seeing that Yu Guogong was relieved, Yu Zidu also felt a lot more relaxed, and said busily: "Thank you grandfather for your compassion." Yu Guogong waved his hand, "You don't have to thank me first, the family matter can be postponed, but there is one thing you must promise me." ”

"Grandfather, please speak."

"Since the emperor has allowed you to choose your own relatives, the person you choose must be approved by the old man before you can enter the door." Yu Guogong doesn't want what happened to his eldest son to happen to his grandchildren again, no matter what, this time he has to ask his grandson to find the right person, and he can't marry someone casually.

Yuzi knows where his grandfather's heart is, and he also knows what is at stake, and he knows what to do.

He won't say anything about his parents' mistakes, but he won't embarrass his grandfather anymore, "Grandfather, don't worry, if I marry a wife, I will naturally have to get my grandfather's approval." The leader of Yu Guogong said: "Okay, I have written down what you said!" After a while, I will enter the palace and ask for a decree to officially canonize you as the prince. Yu Zi was stunned, thinking that this canonization decree would wait until after his weak crown to be issued, thinking that his father suddenly left home before he was crowned the prince, and now he is resisting marriage, no wonder his grandfather is so anxious. Looking at the old grandfather's old face, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, just let the old man's wish come true. It is no longer possible to investigate who was right and who was wrong in what happened back then, and it is the right thing to appease the old man now.

"The grandson listens to his grandfather's arrangement." @。
