In fact, Gu Chengyu and King Gong didn't have much of a holiday, but there were all kinds of misunderstandings before, which caused Gu Chengyu to have a bad sense of him.

Therefore, people's first impression is the most important, Gu Chengyu and King Gong met in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, when Gu Chengyu was almost searched by King Jing, and there was some confusion between the two.

Then because King Gong's temperament was too ruthless, Gu Chengyu felt that if he became a king, the people would have a hard time.

But what about the Prince? The prince is kind-hearted, if he ascends the throne, he can also become a benevolent monarch, but what about the border pass?

Daxing's fine work has infiltrated Dayan before, for what, I believe even a fool can know.

Daxing has been eyeing Dayan for a long time, and if the new emperor who succeeds to the throne doesn't have any courage, maybe he really can't suppress those ambitious alien races.

Gu Chengyu hesitated, and for the first time since coming to this dynasty, he felt the difficulty of making a choice.

It stands to reason that as a courtier, you must fulfill the emperor's dying instructions, which is the duty of a courtier.

But Gu Chengyu also has to think about it for the sake of Dayan, if the monarch is not virtuous, then the people's life must be difficult, this is for the public.

For his own personal gain, he himself also had to choose a virtuous monarch to assist, for his future status in the court, in order to make the Gu family the top scholar in the capital, Gu Chengyu had to think carefully.

Comparing King Gong and the crown prince in his heart, Gu Chengyu closed his eyes slightly, and his eyebrows were furrowed.

"My lord! The hour is coming! Ming Yan came to the outside world and reported to Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu opened his eyes suddenly, and a determined light flashed in his eyes. For him, the hard choices, the vacillations are temporary, and he will not allow himself to be indecisive.

Putting away the things on the table, Gu Chengyu got up and walked out of the room.

"Let's go to the main courtyard!" Gu Chengyu took the lead in walking ahead, and as he walked, he ordered: "You send a clever person to my second senior brother's mansion, and tomorrow I will order the women to go to the palace to mourn." You asked the old lady of Wu Mansion to take care of the old lady more, and took my post, and said that I asked for it. ”

The Lu family was just a peasant woman in the countryside before, although she had been a girl in Jiang Mingyuan's mansion for a few years, but after all, her identity was different from before, and the people she came into contact with were different, so she naturally had to learn the rules again.

Although the rules of the dumb mother-in-law and Liang's mother are excellent, they can't bring people into the palace, in case the mother is too nervous at that time, Gu Chengyu of course has to ask someone to take care of it.

Wu An's mother is of the same grade as her own mother, and the two will stand together at that time, and some things will have to be mentioned by Mrs. Wu.

"Before this matter, Mrs. Liang had already sent someone to the house to inform her, saying that she was afraid that the old lady would be nervous when she entered the palace for the first time, so she asked the old lady of the Wu family to help take care of it."

Ming Yan knew that the adult could not rest assured of his mother, so he hurriedly replied.

"Oh! is still the master and wife's heart, which was thought of in advance. Gu Chengyu nodded, and then strode towards the main courtyard.

"Madam, master, the fifth master is here!" The little girl guarding the door in the courtyard saw Gu Chengyu coming, and hurriedly reported to the back room.

"The slave has seen the adult in January!" The little girl was blessed in January.

"No need to be polite, Mrs. and Master haven't slept yet?" When Gu Chengyu heard January's name again, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, his mother's name was really creative.

In addition to the four big girls such as Qingxia and Caiyun, the other little girls are named after the month, which is very simple, January, February......

It's a beautiful name, but his mother still often calls the wrong name.

"Dad, mother!" Gu Chengyu quickly stepped into the inner room, and found that the Lu family and Gu Father were both sitting neatly dressed, and the mute mother-in-law and Liang's mother beside him were taking turns to teach the Lu family's rules.

Seeing that Lu Shi, who originally had a sad look on his face, his face relaxed after seeing him, and Gu Chengyu couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Lu Shi was happy that his son had finally returned, and hurriedly interrupted the mute mother-in-law's advice.

In fact, Ming'er was going to enter the palace, and she was also very panicked, for fear of losing Xiaobao's face.

The rules and etiquette after entering the palace must be learned, especially this time the wives of the capital will enter the palace to mourn.

If you don't understand the rules and collide with others, maybe you won't care too much about it at the time, but people will definitely remember it. If there is a banquet in the future, it will be a good time for revenge.

Moreover, although these people often say that they should maintain their manners, because they are noble ladies in the capital, of course, they cannot be like the women in the market. But they are also women, and it is their nature to chew the root of their tongue.

At that time, it will be spread in various mansions in the capital, and it will not only lose the face of the Lu family, but also Xiaobao and even the reputation of the Gu family.

Gu Chengyu stepped forward to support the Lu family, and heard the Lu family ask him, "Xiaobao, I heard Mingmo say that you will live in the yamen for the next few days and not come back." ”

"Mother! Not only his son, but the officials in the capital have to stay in the yamen to keep vigil in the yamen these days. But don't worry, my son will be back in a few days. The son in the house has been arranged, you and your father don't worry. In the past few days, the wives have to go to the palace to mourn, and the old lady of the Wu Mansion has asked the old lady of the Wu Mansion to take care of you. Don't worry about it, just deal with it! ”

Gu Chengyu could sense the nervousness of the Lu family, and he could also understand that as a peasant woman, she had never seen such a big scene, and she was naturally nervous for the first time.

It seems that in the future, I will have to let my mother walk around the capital more and open her eyes more.

The edict can only be gracious to his mother and wife, and Father Gu has no official position, so he doesn't need to enter the palace.

But he was a little worried about Xiaobao's future life, it was a pity that the emperor died so soon.

"Little treasure! The emperor has died, will it be more difficult for you to be an official in the future? ”

Daddy Gu didn't understand this, but he also knew that Xiaobao's promotion was so fast, and it was all appreciated by the emperor.

Now that the emperor has died, the new emperor doesn't know if he will reuse Xiaobao again.

Gu Chengyu smiled, "Dad, being an official has never been smooth sailing, but if my son can climb from the sixth rank to the fourth rank in two years, will he be afraid that the official career will not be smooth in the future?" No matter what the new emperor thinks of me, I still have to rely on myself to get out. Dad, mother, you can rest assured! I will work hard, and I will definitely make you more and more beautiful. ”

When Lu Shi heard this, he immediately burst into tears.

Xiaobao has not let them worry since he was a child, but he is too sensible, and it will also make them feel distressed.

Father Gu nodded heavily when he heard this, "My old Gu family can have children and grandchildren like you, and it can be regarded as an ancestor who burned high incense." Let's not talk about what will happen in the future, but now that you are already the fourth grade, I am also content with such a high official position! People should not be too greedy, but be content and happy. ”

Gu Chengyu couldn't cry or laugh, didn't his father hear that there was such a thing as degrading officials? He is now a fourth-grade official, but there is no guarantee that he will not be demoted in the future!

The world is changing, and who knows what the future holds? So Gu Chengyu was firm in what he had just thought.
