Chapter 99： Not worthy (two more)

Chapter 99 Unworthy (two more)

Gu Yuan still remembers that seven years ago, Mrs. Gu Tai sent him to the academy, hoping that he would study for the imperial examinations and get famous. Many people also told him that his grandmother was for his own good.

But Gu Yuan will never forget that his father told him to let him learn cavalry and archery well, and they would go into battle with father and son in the future.

When his father was thirteen years old, he abandoned his identity as the prince of Dingyuan Hou and entered the army incognito, step by step from a soldier to the youngest commander of the garrison.

He also entered the army early, wanting to follow in his father's footsteps and showing his family that he could stand out on his own.

Gu Yanfei looked at his profile with clear lines, his eyes were dark and deep.

In fact, she knew more about her second uncle's mind than Gu Yuan at the moment.

In the last life, Gu Jian had always looked down on the long room, with the exception of Gu Yunqiang, who was under the name of the long room at that time.

Gu Jian has been dreading and guarding against Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan in his previous life was not transferred to the Shenji Camp. He would make a great contribution at the end of the next year. He could have been promoted smoothly, but his leg was broken by Gu Jian's design... It completely blocked Gu Yuan's future!

In this life, because she rescued Duke Wei, Gu Yuan's future has also changed due to yin and yang.

But even if Gu Yuan was transferred to the Shenji Camp, it was only a mere five thousand households, and it should not hinder Gu Jian. Why did Gu Jian act in such a hurry?

Just thinking about it, Gu Yanfei felt distressed for Big Brother, raised his hand to brush off a fallen leaf on his shoulder, and then lightly stroked his shoulder.

Gu Yuan turned to look at her, the moment his eyes met her eyes, soft like spring water.

"Sister, don't worry, I will protect you!" Gu Yuan raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of Gu Yanfei's hair, his heart became softer.

He is the eldest brother, so he should shield his sister from the wind and rain, and protect her well!

"Yes." Gu Yanfei gave him a dazzling smile, "I will protect my eldest brother too."

The surrounding trees and red plums trembled in the slightly drunken wind in the evening, but they were eclipsed by the bright girl.

Gu Yuan was pleased by his sister's words, smiled deeper, and patted her hair dotingly.

The brothers and sisters walked forward while talking, leaving Mingyiyuan behind.

Gu Yuan said again with a smile on his face: "Sister, I have already been transferred to the capital. When we find an opportunity, let's split up, okay?"

The separation of the family is not as simple as it is said. In fact, as early as Gu Yuan knew about the real and fake daughters, he was completely disappointed with Mrs. Gu Tai, and the idea of ​​separating the family was born.

But he also knew that Mrs. Gu Tai and Gu Jian would not agree easily, and neither would the clan.

Since the family is going to be divided, the long room must occupy a "li" character, and it must be divided beautifully.

Moreover, he also has to think about his sister.

Now that he has been transferred back to the capital, he doesn't have to stay in the army all year round, and he has spare power to take care of his sister.

"Okay." Gu Yanfei nodded with a smile.

Separation is a must, but not now.

Most of her demons in her previous life came from the Gu family and from Gu Yunchang, so of course she couldn't just leave.

Master said that the biggest enemy of a monk is not heaven and earth, not others, but himself. On the way of cultivation, monks are fighting with themselves all their lives. If their concentration is slightly weak, and their minds of the Tao regress, they will be dominated by demons.

Evasion, suppression, oblivion, or aggressive killings do nothing for the demons.

What she has to do is to sail against the current in the storm, ride the wind and waves, and stabilize her heart at the helm.

While talking, the two brothers and sisters came to the door of Waiyi.

Juan Bi and Gu Yuan's servant Wutong had already prepared their horses, and the red horse Hongyu and Gu Yuan's dark horse seemed to know that they could go out, and they were all eager to try.

The two brothers and sisters happily went out, went to Fengyun Restaurant happily for dinner, and walked happily for half a circle before returning home.

However, as soon as he arrived outside the Hou residence, he saw the little servant Wutong huddled in the cold wind, waiting anxiously outside the corner door.

"Eldest Young Master!" Wutong saw that the brothers and sisters had finally come back, so he hurried over and said anxiously to Gu Yuan, "Master Hou, he has got a handicap, impeach you, Young Master..."

Gu Yuan didn't say a word, just held the reins tightly, his dark phoenix eyes became dark and gloomy little by little, the black horse under his crotch spewed white air from its snout and neighed its hooves.

The last shimmer of the setting sun fell, and the sky was as dark as the deep sea.

Gu Jian did hand over the book to the palace, and the book was delivered to the emperor on the same day, and also to Chu Yi.

Lanterns are lit in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and the candlelight is sprinkled softly, and the bright one is as bright as day.

"The first day of the first year, what do you think?"

The emperor, who was dressed in a bright yellow straight robe embroidered with golden dragon patterns, looked up at the young man in white sitting on the other side of the coffee table, and then turned to look at the small red clay stove next to him. On the stove was a purple clay pot. There is a slight sound of boiling water.

When the water boils, the emperor skillfully begins to iron the cup, wash the tea, brew, seal the pot, divide the cup... A whole set of tea brewing movements is smooth and elegant.

The colorful parrots on the brass bird stand are chirping, creating a warm and relaxing atmosphere.

Chu Yi sat upright on a red sandalwood Taishi chair, holding the book in his right hand, and browsed at a glance.

The main text of the booklet is delicate and neat, and the handwriting becomes distorted when it reaches the inscription. Obviously, the main body and the inscription are written by two people.

Next to the inscription   , there is a big red seal representing the Duke of Dingyuan, as red as blood.

This excerpt was written by Mrs. Gu Tai, and stated in Gu Jian's tone. At the beginning, she impassively expressed her loyalty to the Dajing Dynasty and the emperor, and then it entered the main topic, showing that Gu Yuan was a sinner after Gu Ce. When Gu Ce surrendered to the enemy and trapped the country in a difficult situation, the former emperor Enze did not pursue the crime of Gu Ce, but the Gu family did not dare to forget. Although Gu Ce's son had some Confucian strength, he was brave and unreliable, and it was difficult to be a magic machine. The important task of running a thousand households is so much.

The excerpts wrote a great passage, most of which are hypocritical nonsense, summed up in one sentence, that is, their mother and son felt that Gu Yuande was not suitable, and his promotion was too fast, and wanted to decline on his behalf.

"Gu Yuan?" Chu Yi's indifferent gaze fell on the word "Gu Yuan" on the booklet, as if he was thoughtful.

Chu Yi did not recognize Gu Yuan.

But it can be seen from this book that Gu Yuan is the son of Gu Ce, the Marquis of Dingyuan.

And Gu Yanfei is the daughter of Gu Ce, that is to say, they are brothers and sisters.

"Gu Yuan!" The parrot learned his mouth in a bright tone, and the voice was so loud that the air seemed to tremble.

Chu Yi looked at the fat parrot flapping its wings on the bird stand and smiled. His long and narrow eyes were shining in the candlelight. The smile was pleasant, soft and meaningful.

At this time, the emperor also made tea, which happened to take this scene into his eyes.

It was rare to see his son showing such an expression. The emperor raised Dye Cream’s eyebrows, picked up one of the cups of tea, blew on the foam floating on the tea soup, took another sip, and raised his eyebrows with satisfaction.

Because my son likes tea with a stronger flavor, he added five more tea leaves, which is just right now.

"Father, where did Gu Yuan hold any position?" Gu Yuan put the booklet on the coffee table, and his slender index finger gently hooked twice on the fluffy chin of the parrot. The parrot is very good at acting like a spoiled child. He rubbed Gu Yuan's finger obediently.

Gu Yuan is just a small sixth-rank military officer, and he can't get into the eyes of the emperor at all, and the emperor is also not very clear.

The big **** serving next to him has always been good at observing the Sacred Heart, and immediately said with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness, then Gu Yuanyuan is serving as the sixth-rank thousand general manager in Xishan Jiuxiao Camp."

After a pause, the **** explained: "Gu Yuan's promotion to Shenji Camp this time is the meaning of Duke Wei. When Gu Yuan went to the coast with Jiuxiao Camp the year before to suppress the Japanese, the bandit leader led the remaining 30% of the rogues to escape with Jin Chan. He absconded and was seen through by Gu Yuanrui, Gu Yuan led people on the boat to wait for the rabbits, caught them all in one fell swoop, and made the first contribution..."

The **** had already investigated the ins and outs of the matter before he sent this book to the Dongnuan Pavilion, just to respond to the emperor's possible inquiries.

Having said this, the eunuch's eyes wandered for a while, and it is not good to go on and say why Gu Yuan did not get rewarded for his merits the year before. After all, this matter involves the late emperor, and even the emperor is not good to criticize the late emperor.

After the **** finished speaking, the Dongnuan Pavilion became quiet.

Only there was a slight crackling sound in the gauze lamp next to it, and a faint scent of candle oil wafted out, which was instantly overwhelmed by the elegant fragrance in the air.

The emperor handed another cup of tea that had just been brewed to Chu Yi, Chu Yi took the tea, and the sweet and mellow tea aroma penetrated the tip of his nose, which was his favorite Biluochun.

Chu Yi smelled the fragrant tea fragrance and said sharply, "Noble title."

"Inheritance of the title, if virtue is not matched, there will be trouble later."

Chu Yi's tone was understated, and he didn't name him, but with just one sentence, Gu Jian was demoted to the dust.

Gu Jian kept saying that Gu Yuan "does not match morality", but in fact the person who really "does not match morality" is himself.

The eldest lady on the side listened and lowered her head silently, naturally she understood.

If the title holder is not worthy of virtue, he will feel guilty in that position, and he will be afraid. He is always worried that someone will **** his title, which will lead to suspicion and even unnecessary attacks, causing disturbances inside and outside.

The emperor nodded straight to Chu Yi while rubbing his beard, smiling lovingly.

He was smart on the first day of the first year of junior high school. He knew Wei Wei, but he had never seen Gu Jian, and this book alone could see through him.

Gu Jian is indeed inferior to Gu Ce.

It should be said that the brothers of the Gu family cannot be compared at all, one in the sky and the other in the ground.

In the past, he only thought that Gu Jian was mediocre and incompetent, but now it seems that he has to add a "no tolerance".

"It was a pity for Gu Ce back then." Thinking of those past events eight years ago, the emperor was also a little emotional, and his warm eyes showed complicated emotions.

When his eyes fell on Chu Yi, the sadness was swept away, and the whole person became bright again. Fortunately, his first day came back safely!

After drinking a few sips of tea, Chu Yi put down the tea cup, looked at the emperor fixedly, and asked, "What does the emperor think about Gu Ce's surrender to the enemy?"

"..." The emperor was slightly startled, his lips pursed, and his originally laid-back figure also tensed a little in an instant.
