Chapter 25 The hero is a cousin

When Gu Wenjing went to find his son Gu Zhenghong, he happened to ran into Cheng Yuhua telling Gu Zhenghong: “…Let Biyu or Mother follow, don’t get alone with that person today, try to stay away from her!”

Gu Wenjing only heard the second half, but didn’t hear the previous content, but he also knew that Cheng Yuhua told Gu Zhenghong to stay away from Yuan Susu because he was worried that Yuan Susu would have bad thoughts and hurt his son.

So he didn’t get angry and walked over directly. Seeing Gu Wenjing coming in, Cheng Yuhua’s face suddenly paled, and she said in a panic: “Husband, I…” She knew that Gu Wenjing must have heard her words just now.

Gu Wenjing glanced at her calmly, and said faintly: “Don’t worry, I sent someone to watch my cousin. I also sent someone to protect Hong’er. She can’t do anything. Even if you take care of your mother’s face, you can’t. The blatant isolation of Hong’er and his cousin’s contact.”

In Gu Wenjing’s view, although Yuan Susu has no shortage of scheming City Mansion, he has never done anything that is harmful to others. Even if a person is born with a vicious heart, before he has done anything harmful, as long as there is not enough profit to drive him, he will never dare to do anything to harm.

Yuan Susu was under his supervision in every move, even if she was lost in her mind and wanted to drag Gu Zhenghong to the end, there was no possibility that she would harm Gu Zhenghong if there were someone Gu Wenjing sent to protect Gu Zhenghong.

Cheng Yuhua lowered his head and said in shame: “I’m sorry, my husband, I’m just too nervous, so I…”

Gu Wenjing said: “I know, don’t worry, I will protect Hong’er.”

Regarding Cheng Yuhua’s behavior to guard against Yuan Susu, Gu Wenjing didn’t think there was anything wrong, and even took it for granted. After all, no matter how much a mother cares about her children, she can understand.

Yuan Susu is a concubine, and Cheng Yuhua is a wife. Even because of Gu Wenjing’s attitude, the two women are not as intolerant as other wives, but the wives and concubines are born with opposing positions and interests. Cheng Yuhua’s vigilance is normal.

In this case, Gu Wenjing, as a man, should not blame his wife for making too much fuss in this situation, but should give her enough sense of security to eliminate the hidden dangers she is worried about.

Gu Zhenghong’s little friend looked up at his father ignorantly with his small face up, and then at his mother, and then at his father… His little head turned around, his face stunned.

Gu Wenjing squatted down and touched his head with a smile: “The person who taught you to paint today should be called Cousin. Come, learn from Dad, Biao—Aunt—”

Gu Zhenghong’s little friend awkwardly followed the tongue: “bia-gu-” His pronunciation was a bit strange at first, but after learning his tongue a few times, he could clearly call out the name “Cousin”.

Gu Wenjing rubbed his son’s little head and said with a smile: “I learned so soon, Hong’er is awesome! Dad rewards you for eating roast duck!”

Gu Zhenghong’s little friend immediately forgot about his cousin who had been playing with him and taught him painting. He pulled Gu Wenjing’s sleeves and couldn’t wait to rush to the table, his head was full of roast duck.

However, when he rushed to the table, Gu Zhenghong looked at a few plates of dim sum on the table with disappointment, and did not see the roast duck he was thinking of: “No…”

Biyu smiled and brought the roast duck over, and there were other maids behind her carrying a few other side dishes, “Little Master, the roast duck is here!”

Then Gu Wenjing and his wife and children ate dinner happily.

Time is like an arrow, and the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed. Gu Zhenghong’s little friends have grown up to be seven-year-old children, moved out of Cheng Yuhua’s yard, and have their own small yard in Rongjinyuan.

In recent years, Gu Wenjing has also become more and more busy. When his son has reached the age of formal enrollment, he has no time to enlighten him personally.

Cheng Yuhua brought up the matter and said: “My husband doesn’t have time to enlighten Hong’er himself, so it’s better to send Hong’er to Cheng’s house and let my second brother teach him on his behalf.”

Cheng Yuhua’s second brother, Cheng Heng, was about the same age as Gu Wenjing, but not as good as Gu Wenjing. He spent a long time on the imperial examinations. Even if he was the son of Shangshu, he was now just a small transparent in the Imperial Academy and had a lot of free time every day.

She wants to give her son to her natal brother to teach, and also wants to make the Cheng family and Gu family closer.

In the past few years, Gu Wenjing has been released to the south of the Yangtze River for three years. In that place where fish and dragons are mixed, he still made some achievements. Although he has offended many people, he has also dismantled these offended people and stepped on them. So they returned to Beijing smoothly.

Anyone can see that Gu Wenjing, who has extraordinary means and exquisite versatility, has a promising future, a strong holy family, and is deeply trusted by the emperor. If he is still too young, I am afraid that now he is not only succumbed to the official position of the third grade.

The Cheng family appeared to be a bit weak, and the foundation was not as good as the Ningyuan Houfu. Among the next generation of heirs, Cheng Jue and Cheng Heng were not as good as Gu Wenjing. Now Cheng Heng is still exchanging qualifications, and Cheng Heng has just been admitted to the Hanlin Academy to be a junior officer.

As the daughter of Cheng’s family, Cheng Yuhua naturally hopes that her mother-in-law and her in-laws have a close relationship.

However, Gu Wenjing vetoed it: “The situation is a bit tense recently. Hong’er is my only son. It is not safe to go out casually. It is better to ask a gentleman to teach him at home.”

Cheng Yuhua nodded, not disappointed. Gu Wenjing often talked to her about the current situation, and she also knew the severity.

She was a little bit lost: “Husband, concubine has not been able to add another younger brother and sister to Hong’er in recent years…”

Her former sister-in-law Fang Shi, who was not very attractive, has now given birth to two sons and a daughter, but she is still lonely with only Hong’er under her knees.

Yuan’s always looked at Cheng Yuhua uncomfortable, and felt that her daughter-in-law was dominating her son and was still unwilling to do so. In the past few years, she has urged her to conceive another one.

Gu Wenjing comforted: “We already have Hong’er. Whether we have any children in the future depends on fate. If we don’t have this fate, it is also destined.”

For so many years after Gu Zhenghong was born, the life of Gu Wenjing and Cheng Yuhua’s husband and wife has always been normal, and he did not do any contraceptive measures. After all, contraception in ancient times was really troublesome and hurt, and he always took the natural attitude toward the child. In the end, I didn’t expect to have never been pregnant.

Gu Wenjing felt that this was due to lack of fate or no more children, but Cheng Yuhua was worried.

He knew that Cheng Yuhua was entangled in this matter probably because his mother Yuan Shi often beat her in the back.

But the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been difficult to deal with since ancient times. Gu Wenjing insisted not to favor Cheng Yuhua by his concubine. Yuan was very dissatisfied, and he could not dispel this dissatisfaction.

Gu Wenjing asked his son to be an enlightenment teacher. Ning Yuanhou also set up a small study room for Gu Zhenghong in the front yard to make it easier for him to get close to his grandson.

Ning Yuanhou is now in a state of preparing to retire, because Gu Wenjing has grown up and will definitely continue to rise in the future. One of the six books, or joining the cabinet, is a foreseeable future.

The imperial court couldn’t let their father and son occupy the high positions of real power, so according to the unspoken rule, the elders must give way to the younger generations, otherwise the younger generations will have the ability, and the emperor will not let them rise up.

Ning Yuanhou is currently slowly handing over his power to the deputy arranged by the emperor. Only when the time comes, the emperor gives him an honorary title for him to retire honorably, and his son Gu Wenjing can also enter the core circle of imperial power.

However, Gu Wenjing is still young and has insufficient qualifications to be promoted temporarily. Gu’s family has to be supported by Ning Yuanhou. Therefore, the power of Ning Yuanhou in the court is still not small, and the emperor also believed in him seriously.

Ning Yuanhou called Gu Wenjing, and after talking to him about setting up a small study room for Gu Zhenghong, he lowered his voice and said: “The wind hasn’t been right recently. Your majesty’s body is not very good. He was sick a few days ago, but he just kept it secret. It is estimated that everyone who should know knows, the eldest prince is afraid they can’t help it.”

Gu Wenjing nodded slightly. He almost knew what Ning Yuanhou had said. In the past few years, the battle for the righteousness has been fought fiercely among several princes, but the current emperor is a capable emperor, and the princes’ fights are controlled by one. Within the scope, it did not expand to the point of serious partisanship.

It’s just that the emperor’s health is not good, so far he hasn’t shown his preference for any prince, and there is no standing prince, all the princes can’t wait.

Gu Wenjing didn’t know exactly when the emperor died. He only got the memory of the original owner from the system before he crossed over. The original plot only gave him an outline, and many details were unclear. He only knew that the emperor hadn’t lived long now, and the final winner was the seventh prince, and the other princes who won the princes had no good end. But how long the emperor can live, when the seven princes will become the throne, and what the fate of the other princes will be, he doesn’t know.

But even if he got the detailed original plot from the system, he probably wouldn’t believe it all, after all, everything changed from the moment he crossed over…

“Father, I will be careful.” Gu Wenjing said solemnly.

Ning Yuanhou looked at him and smiled slightly: “I have always been prudent for you, and I can rest assured for my father.” Although his son is few and his aunt has only this one, this one is better than many others in the family.

Their Gu family father and son both hold real power, the holy family is strong, and many princes draw them. He is okay. He is a senior man and has a good personal relationship with the emperor. The princes dare not be too wanton, but he won’t be as restrained as he was when he was drawn to him. But Gu Wenjing still maintained a neutral stance and didn’t offend any prince. His methods were sleek and no one could make mistakes in handling the matter.

This is the method of messing around in officialdom.

After Gu Wenjing left from Ning Yuanhou, he received news from his subordinates that he had news of the high-yield crops that the fleet was looking for!
