Gu Lin didn't understand what Gu Rong meant for a while.

"What do you say, if there really is such a person, how can I not use it?"

Listening to Gu Rong's meaning, it seems that this person who can help him arrange a job vacancy has a lot of status and status, and his influence in the court is not small, otherwise Gu Rong would not say that it would be effortless for that person to help him arrange an official position.

But where did they know such a person? If there really was such a person, how could he be in such an embarrassing situation now?

Gu Rong saw that Gu Lin hadn't understood what he meant, so he couldn't help but sigh, and said hurriedly: "Big brother, my brother said that you were confused, you still thought that your brother arranged you, but you said it yourself, you have such a good prospective son-in-law but you don't know how to use it, what is it if you are not confused?" ”

Only then did Gu Lin understand what Gu Rong meant.

Originally, Gu Rong thought that his eldest brother should suddenly realize when he heard his words, but he didn't want to, he actually looked sad and depressed.

"You're wrong." Gu Lin frowned and waved his hand, saying no.

Gu Rongqi said: "Why not? If a prospective son-in-law can't do it, who else can? ”

Gu Lin shook his head when he heard this, and sighed heavily before he said: "You only know that his status is not low, but you don't know how iron-faced and selfless he is, and besides, on the day that the woman of the Fang family was convicted, Wen Guogong, the left prime minister, the right minister, Lin Dashi, Wang Shangshu and other important ministers of the court were all on the scene, and it was the right minister who spoke to cover up for his brother, and did not call the matter of the Fang family, so he barely saved some of the face of the Hou Mansion in front of outsiders, but how can there be an unventilated wall in this world?" You come back for half a month, I think you also know how deep the water in Kyoto is, something like this happened in our family, the first day of the dynasty after the year, the emperor criticized him by name, and even alluded to the improper style of the Gu family, in this case, who will reuse our brother? This is also the reason why writing a letter to your brother and you so that you can be mentally prepared. ”

"You don't often know in the capital, the quasi-son-in-law of your brother, the most iron-faced and selfless, don't look at the young age, but after a few years of tempering on the battlefield, a black face fell, even for the brother is a little panicked, dare not say more, he made it clear that he doesn't want to take care of our family's affairs, how can he ask him to go to his brother? I'm an elder after all, there's no reason to send my face to a junior and ask someone to beat me, I really can't afford to lose this person! ”

It's not that Gu Rong doesn't understand this, but he's in a hurry, face is important, but his future is even more important!

couldn't take care of it, so Gu Rong had no choice but to quickly give Gu Lin an idea and incite Gu Lin, "Big brother, why do you have to go and talk to him in person?" You are an elder, he is a junior, this naturally does not have the reason for you to ask him, I mean, you should say to An Sheng, people are all about raising children to prevent old age, you gave birth to An Sheng's girl, and found such a good family affair for her, shouldn't she repay you? Although I am only her second uncle, but I am her second uncle, I am fine, can I still be without her benefits? We are a family, such a simple truth as one glory and one loss, I don't believe that girl will not understand? I've listened to some of that girl's deeds these days, and I know that she is a great person now, but because of this, shouldn't she help the family more? ”

Gu Rong's words, how could Gu Lin not think about it?

At the beginning, he had the same idea, but he felt sorry for An Sheng after Aunt Qin's death, and he couldn't raise his head in front of An Sheng, where did he have the face to ask An Sheng to help him do this and that?

In the end, he still cares about some courtesy, righteousness and shame, some things are good to say and not good, even if he says it as an elder regardless of his face, if An Sheng shouldn't, what should he do? Suppress people with filial piety? So what if An Sheng mentioned Aunt Qin to block him?

"No, no, I can't say this, I promised it in front of the big guy that day, and I won't embarrass An Sheng again, if this matter is easy to do, how can I hesitate and refuse to speak? Such a difficult thing, how could An Sheng easily agree to it when I said it? Gu Lin thought about it, but he still felt that Gu Rong's method was unreliable.

If this was a good thing to say, he had said it earlier, so why wait until today?

The Gu family is declining day by day, isn't he in a hurry!

But what can he do in a hurry, he was reprimanded by the emperor as a court, his official is actually the end, how can he not understand this truth, but whenever there is a little opportunity, he does not want to give up years of hard work, but the problem is that he really has no chance now.

He knows that the second brother is unwilling, and he is not reconciled, but in life, there are many unwilling things, can it really all go according to your wishes?

Naturally, this is not possible.

Through this, he learned one thing, and that was to accept his fate.

He didn't believe in these before, but now he has to believe it, in this life, there is really a life to say, what life you should be is what life, don't admit it.

"Big brother ......" Gu Rong wanted to persuade again, but was interrupted by Gu Lin.

"This matter is not good, I can't say it, if you can say it, or you will talk to her in person, just like you said, anyway, you are also her second uncle, and you are not a bystander, I, the father, have lost my prestige in front of her, this kind of self-faceless thing, I really can't do it, and it's useless to do it, you don't know, that girl is stubborn, and it's really difficult to talk about this matter, she won't open this mouth with Lu Zheng easily."

"Big brother, I'm ......"

"Okay, okay, this matter is like this first, and then I want to mention it, I want to say, you might as well go to Dali Temple first, even if it is an idle job, it is better than being idle at home now, you are sleek, and hard-working, unlike me, as long as you are willing to hibernate, maybe there will be a day when you soar into the sky, but the eldest brother is ......"

Speaking of this, Gu Lin couldn't help but sigh again and shook his head in disappointment.

As long as there is a little possibility, he doesn't want to give up his original good future, but......

Gu Rong couldn't help but be a little angry when he saw that Gu Lin couldn't make sense, but in the end, Gu Lin was his eldest brother, and he also respected this brother, so he finally held back his anger.

But although the anger in his heart was suppressed, he still couldn't help but bring out a little complaint, "Big brother feels embarrassed, lose face, I can't force my eldest brother if I don't want to help me say this, just think about it, if there is really no other way, I can only go to Dali Temple, but it's a pity that Dali Temple is idle...... Let's go, an idle position with no real power, don't say it! I still have something to do with my eldest brother, so I won't bother you here, brother, I'll go back first. ”

After that, Gu Rong didn't wait for Gu Lin to speak, so he waved his hand at Gu Lin and exited Gu Lin's study.
