The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination
Chapter 907: One Step Too Late
Chapter 907
Unexpectedly, it was useless for them to plan, the younger sister had already secretly agreed, and she was a sixth-rank official from a farming family.
"Then this candidate was replaced by Gu Chengyu, why not? He is only a sixth-rank official now, so my grandfather will not be afraid of him. Besides, he is talented, and he will climb to a high position in the future. Needless to say, it will benefit our family .”
Qin Yingyuan knew that Gu Chengyu's background was indeed not good, but apart from this point, there was nothing else to criticize.
"Which son in the capital can have his abilities? When those people were at his age, they were either holding books and still reciting the Four Books and Five Classics, or they were chasing chickens and dogs outside to make people feel disgusted."
She also didn't care that her elder brother would reprimand her, so she simply lost face and wanted to fight for herself.
Qin Min was so angry by his sister that he stood up from the chair, "You are a boudoir girl, do you still want to lose face? You are a foreigner when you talk and talk, as if to say that if there is no him in this world, there will be no good man."
But when he thought about it again, his sister was right.He heard His Highness the Second Highness mention Gu Chengyu earlier, and there was a bit of appreciation in his words.
He also said that if he had the help of this person, he would have a better chance of winning the battle for the throne in the future.
Although there are only a few words, these words are already unabashedly praised.Before the Second Highness asked him to get in touch with this person more, it would be best if he could draw the other person into his camp, if not, then he should not turn against him.
So he is suffering from a headache these days!When my mother met Gu Chengyu in Baoen Temple, she offended Gu Chengyu.
Earlier, it was rumored that Gu Chengyu had just been promoted, and he was eager to ask the emperor for an imperial edict, and asked for a conferment for his mother, which shows that he is a very filial person.
But my mother not only offended Gu Chengyu that day, but also offended the old lady. It's hard to say that he has a prejudice against their family now!
So when he learned that Sister Ying was in contact with the old lady, he didn't stop him, in order to ease the relationship.
"Ying'er, it's not that I don't help you because of my brother, but that you are one step too late after all!"
Qin Min sighed, in fact, he was not so opposed to his sister marrying Gu Chengyu.The hero doesn't care about his background, as long as Gu Chengyu is capable, will he be afraid that Sister Ying will have a bad life in the future?
In addition, it is impossible for the old man and old lady of the Gu family to live in the capital all the time. When they return to the ancestral house, the younger sister will be able to be the master of the family. Isn't it more comfortable than those family wives?
What's more, with the younger sister's identity there, it is impossible for the Gu family to show her face, and even have to respect and confess.
When Gu Chengyu becomes his brother-in-law, the Second Highness will be able to give an explanation.But they were still one step too late after all, Sister Ying must not get what she wanted.
A bad premonition welled up in Qin Yingyuan's heart, and she asked anxiously, "What does elder brother mean by that?"
"Today, Gu Chengyu's teacher, Liang Zhirui, handed over a sign to enter the palace. I reckon it was for his granddaughter's marriage."
Suddenly discovered that her younger sister was not like an ordinary boudoir girl, and her insights were also very unique.Qin Min put away his contempt, and planned to discuss this matter with his sister.
"Brother, do you mean that his teacher wants to betroth Yao Mengxian to Gu Chengyu?" Qin Yingyuan's eyes widened, and she felt angry.
"There should be such a meaning. Before that, the wife of the eldest son of the Duke of Zhen's mansion announced that she wanted to fight for Princess Jing. It seems that Liang Zhirui heard it, so he rushed into the palace, just to push down the door. Marriage? After all, with his temperament, it should be impossible for him to take the position of Concubine Jing."
Qin Min nodded. Although the matter of the imperial study room had not reached his ears yet, he believed that the analysis just now was very likely.
If Liang Zhirui really wanted his granddaughter to become Concubine Jing, then there was no need for him to enter the palace, just let it go and pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Because the Second Highness said that Prince Jing also wanted Gu Chengyu to help him, that's why he asked Ke to do this.
Hearing Ke Shi, Qin Yingyuan curled her lips, she especially looked down on that small woman.
Where does a girl's house get in the way of her eyes?If he treats that girl better and finds a good marriage in the future, will he still have a bad relationship with his natal family?
As long as the natal family treats the girl better, as long as the natal family has something to do in the future, the girl will not stand by and watch.
Even if she hated the daughter-in-law who was left behind, she shouldn't have done it so blatantly, and she didn't have to make all the aristocratic families in the capital laugh at her.
The ridiculous thing is that Ke Shi still thinks he is smart and pretends that no one else knows, but who in this capital has sharp eyes?
"Since King Jing chose Yao Mengxian, how could my grandfather agree to let Gu Chengyu marry her?"
Qin Yingyuan couldn't wait to know the result. According to her eldest brother, did her grandfather agree?
"That's what I said, but who can guess what my grandfather is thinking? Can my grandfather rest assured that Prince Jing will marry that girl?"
Seeing Qin Yingyuan's pale face, Qin Min couldn't bear it, but he felt that the emperor would agree to Liang Zhirui in the end.
With Prince Jing, the emperor will make compensation.
"Did my grandfather agree?"
Qin Yingyuan only felt that all the strength in her body was drained, she sat down on the chair, and looked at the sapphire paperweight on the desk blankly.
In fact, the promise is obvious, even if the marriage is not conferred today, what about tomorrow?
Compared to bestowing Yao Mengxian to King Jing, she believed that the emperor would definitely be more inclined to bestow a marriage on Gu Chengyu.
"Not yet, but I think it will be within two days." Qin Min shook his head, not knowing how to persuade his sister.
"Then this matter is not yet a foregone conclusion, can elder brother help me?" Qin Yingyuan didn't want to watch Gu Chengyu marry someone else.
Qin Min was dumbfounded for a moment, and then he frowned deeply. Didn't Sister Ying give up?
"You know my grandfather's temperament. It is very difficult to change the things he decides. The emperor's golden words, how can it be so easy to break his promise? Besides, my mother will never agree to this matter, so you should stop thinking about it! "
Qin Min didn't expect her younger sister to be so stubborn, and her temper was exactly the same as her mother's.
Qin Yingyuan looked at her elder brother disappointedly, then stood up and said goodbye.
"I will go to the palace to serve the sick tomorrow." After saying a word, Qin Yingyuan turned around and left.
Seeing her sister's distraught appearance, Qin Min also felt uncomfortable.But this is absolutely impossible, and he will not take risks for Gu Chengyu and offend his grandfather.
He opened his mouth to try to persuade him a few more words, but in the end he sighed and said nothing.
The next day, Gu Chengyu went to the Hanlin Academy as usual.
As soon as he entered the room, Qiu Yifan came over.
"Have you heard about Jinyu? I'm afraid Mr. Fang will not get well this time. Dali Temple has investigated a lot of evidence of his crimes. It should be more ominous."
Qiu Yifan shook his head and sighed, with a regretful and heartbroken expression on his face.
