Daughter's Portable Space

Chapter 425 Final decision
Take care of your home.

"Father, are you really planning to do this? Maybe there is still room for improvement."

The person who spoke was the master of the Gu family. He seemed to have suffered a lot these days, and his face was very haggard.But in front of him was the old man of the Gu family who was rumored to be seriously ill and unable to get up.

The ancestors of the Gu family were born with meritorious service, and they even followed the great grandfather to conquer the present world.However, the Gu family has been passed down for seven consecutive generations. Although there are two young masters in the generation of the second young master of the Gu family, the eldest young master of the Gu family passed away before leaving any heirs. This is already the eighth generation of the Gu family.

From the fifth generation of the Gu family, the descendants of the Gu family have abandoned martial arts and followed literature.

The current old man of the Gu family, Gu Cheng, is listed as the Minister of Household Affairs, and has great prestige in the court.

And Gu Congxuan, the master of the Gu family, became the prince's instructor in the early years. Although he is not a grand tutor, he can be regarded as an orthodox princeling.

Originally, everything was very appropriate. At that time, the two young masters of the Gu family were better than the other. Even the second young master of the Gu family who could not inherit the family business was also very knowledgeable and was highly valued by the prince.It's a pity that during the time when the crown prince had an accident, the Gu family also had an accident.

"There is room for change? If there is room, nothing will happen to Xueqing back then."

Back then, after the prince's accident, as an orthodox princeling, the Gu family naturally couldn't turn a blind eye.Although the crown prince has passed away, he has left behind a legitimate son. Although the child is indeed young, the Holy Majesty is not particularly old.Although there is no precedent for a grandson to inherit the throne in this dynasty, such a thing happened in the previous dynasty, and it is not too rare.

Therefore, during that period of time, the Gu family supported the young grandson, and the direct result was that the second young master of the Gu family was seriously injured.

What about accidentally falling off a horse when going out for an outing? These are just used to bluff people.The truth is, the second young master of the Gu family got a piece of news that it was related to the deceased prince. He did go out alone, but in order to grab a piece of evidence.In the end, the evidence was obtained, but the second young master of the Gu family was seriously injured and almost lost his life.

But the evidence that almost killed him caused the destruction of the family for several hundred years later.

"Xueqing, he...he's fine now." A father naturally cared about his own son.For the master of the Gu family, the second young master of the Gu family is not only the youngest son he cares about very much, but now he is the heir of the Gu family.

"Okay? Because of his leg injury, he will never be able to take the imperial examination. No matter how good his knowledge is, he is at best expected to be a gentleman. Think about how outstanding my ancestors of the Gu family were. Even a seventh-rank official can't do it anymore."

Regarding the "accident" that happened to the little grandson back then, the old man of the Gu family sighed more.

In fact, in that situation, the old man of the Gu family had already guessed that someone was going to deal with his family.But he was too confident, or even if he knew that it would be dangerous to snatch that piece of evidence, he subconsciously ignored it.In the view of the old lady of the Gu family, with that evidence, the Gu family can gain a good impression on the holy board, and the Gu family will definitely be able to rise to a higher level in the future.

As for the second young master of the Gu family...

It is true that there are dangers, but opportunities are usually accompanied by dangers.What's more, compared to the young grandson who has shown his sharpness since he was a child, the old man of the Gu family cares more about his stable and capable eldest grandson.As long as the eldest grandson can find a good future and make the Gu family more prominent, even sacrificing a younger grandson is fine, right?

The mentality of the old man of the Gu family is probably an open secret in the Gu family, and therefore, even the second young master of the Gu family knows that his leg injury was not an accident, but there is nothing he can do about it.

There are many things in this world that are very helpless, even if you know who the murderer is, so what?Instead of killing the murderer, it is better to seek greater benefits for the Gu family.

However, for the second young master of the Gu family, the rest of the Gu family felt guilty, and because of this, they doted on him more and more. They only wanted to give him the best and could not bear to let him suffer any more.

"Father, Xueqing's leg injury has healed a lot in the past two years, maybe in his lifetime, he can completely heal the leg injury?"

The old lady of the Gu family raised her eyes: "So what? Congxuan, don't you understand? At that time, I thought it was an opportunity, but it was actually a catastrophe. They have already warned us. Xueqing is a warning, and Xueqing is a warning. An is the result of their killing chickens and monkeys. Do you still think we should face up to difficulties? I am not afraid of difficulties or torture, but what about Xueqing? Are you going to give up everything in the Gu family for a person who has passed away? "

After hearing this, the Gu family master fell silent.

Wealth and power are what everyone dreams of.However, if they gained wealth and power, but lost their descendants...then who are they doing this for?
"Congxuan, just listen to me on this matter, the Gu family is also suitable for self-cultivation."

"Father, don't you think the grandson can't take the throne? The majesty is already old. To put it bluntly, it's just been a few years. Everyone knows that the majesty cares about the grandson very much, and the other princes don't care at all. We ..."

"That's enough! Congxuan, Congxuan, why haven't you understood yet? You said it yourself, the sage is old, but the grandson is too young. What are you going to do? The grandson ascended the throne? And then? Be a minister? Congxuan, I thought about what you are thinking now. The emperor has more than one son, but most of the princes have grown up, and even the youngest ones have never been It has nothing to do with the throne. Our family belongs to the prince, this is something that everyone in the capital knows, if another prince ascends to the throne, the Gu family will probably be ruined from then on."

"So, father, we must support Taisun. Taisun is still young, and when he takes over, won't the future of our Gu family be bright?"

The old man of the Gu family looked deeply at his only son: "After hearing what you said, I dare not leave. Forget it, call your wife here, I still have something to say."

"Father!"

"Go and call her."

He wanted to say something more, but in the end the master of the Gu family withdrew.After a while, he brought Mrs. Gu's family over.

Seriously looking between the two, the old man of the Gu family sighed deeply: "I've made a decision, you don't need to have any objections anymore. You must keep in mind what I'm going to say today."

"Our Gu family's ancestral motto is to be cautious. No matter what happens, remember to keep the green hills so you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."

"Congxuan, it's good that you are capable and ambitious. But you also have to remember that no matter what you do, it is for the Gu family, for the future generations of the Gu family. If you say, because of what you did If I harm my descendants for this, then I would rather the Gu family fall from now on than you to provoke right and wrong!"

Faced with such harsh words from the old man of the Gu family, the old man of the Gu family couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

But Mrs. Gu's face turned pale.

"What's the matter? Xueqing, did something happen to him?"

A few years ago, when the second young master of the Gu family had an "accident", the wife of the Gu family didn't know the inside story at first.But as time went by, she felt more and more uneasy.When the young master of the Gu family died, he could no longer hide it from her.

Originally, Mrs. Gu's family didn't care much about the men's affairs outside, but once her son was involved, she had to care.

"Husband, I don't care what you want to do, but I only want Xueqing's life to be safe. I have lost Xue'an, and Xueqing's leg was also disabled because of the Gu family. No matter what, I can't stand the torture anymore."

"This..." Master Gu's expression was very embarrassing. If it was in the past, he would accuse Mrs. Gu of being a woman's opinion.But when he thought of his two sons, one dead and the other disabled, he couldn't say what was on his lips anyway.

"That's all for other things. Now I only have Xueqing as a son. Husband, you should treat it as a kindness. Even if you want my life, it's okay, but Xueqing must not have any accidents!"

This is the idea of ​​Mrs. Gu's family, but it's not the idea of ​​the old man of Gu's family.

The old man of the Gu family was competitive all his life, and he also knew that his only son had completely inherited his temperament.It's just that when people experience more things in old age, they lose the energy they had when they were young.To be honest, if he could, he really hoped that everything would be left alone.

such a pity!
"Congxuan, this is the last time to listen to me. The Gu family has been prosperous for so many years, so it's time to take a good rest. The prince has passed away. Although he left behind a son, the other princes are not vegetarian. I think It is unrealistic for the grandson to ascend the throne, so what if the grandson ascended the throne? Xue'an is gone, and Xueqing's legs are not good enough, our Gu family has to give in."

As soon as the old man of the Gu family opened his mouth, the old man of the Gu family and his wife could only temporarily shut their mouths, but seeing the old man of the Gu family's face, it seemed that they were still a little reluctant.

Naturally, the old lady of the Gu family saw everything in his eyes, and couldn't help showing a trace of disappointment on his face: "There is no need to say anything, I have made up my mind, and I will go to the Holy Majesty in person tomorrow. As for Congxuan... ...I'll help you resign from office, too."

"Father!"

"That's enough. If you still think of me as a father, just listen to me one last time. I'm an old bone, and I don't have many ideas to live. Now that those people are ready to do something, instead of letting them treat Xueqing If you start with the child, why not let me do one last thing for the Gu family."

Although he understood what the old man of the Gu family was thinking, the first time he heard him speak so bluntly, the old man of the Gu family couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

After hesitating for a long time, the master of the Gu family knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and said nothing more.
