Chapter 137 Recruiting Cheng Yan
Author: Emei Swordsman
"I first asked for advice on my homework and deliberately asked for it. Today, I have made a good fortune. I have to say that they are coveting me. What do you want to do when you target Cheng Yan everywhere? Did he mess with you?"
Gu Yunji saw Gu Ming'an's difficulties with Cheng Yan these days. At first, he thought it was Gu Mingan who lost his face because Chen He slapped him in public, so he was unhappy when he saw Cheng Yan and felt that he was angry for two days at most.
It's over.
He didn't expect that Gu Ming'an had such a narrow mind and had resented Cheng Yan for so long. He almost mocked him whenever he had the chance, which made Cheng Yan very embarrassed.
At the beginning, Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan turned a blind eye to this, thinking that they would pass by it, and they did not want to intensify the conflict. At this point, Cheng Yan could still bear it, but Gu Yunji couldn't bear it anymore.
.
He invited Cheng Yan to the Gu family school to study with him and listen to the teachings of great Confucianism, not to let him be humiliated here.
Seeing Gu Yunji speak so directly and not doing any superficial skills, Gu Mingan lost his patience to roam around him, and immediately turned cold: "It would be strange if he didn't mess with me, he messed with me! A mud-legged man
, I don’t deserve to carry my shoes to this young master, where can I get the qualifications to go in and out in the school and be on an equal footing?"
Gu Yunji didn't expect that Gu Mingan was still struggling with this and looked at him incomprehensible: "Gu Mingan, are you sick? Can your background represent everything? From ancient times to the present, there are so many capable and ambitious people from poor families, who is not famous than Cheng Yan?"
"Although there are levels of high and low in the world, no matter whether you admit it or not, people with strength in this society can climb quickly and can get rid of the wealthy and noble candids. The so-called no matter how high and low, those who can live in it are the imperial examination system. This is exactly what the imperial examination system says
The best proof of the sentence!”
"No matter how high or low, those who can live in it" is as sharp as a sharp thorn. Every word is stuck on Gu Ming'an's heart, shattering the creed of hierarchy order that he had pursued for more than 20 years. His eyes were red and he held it unwillingly.
He tightened his fist and did not make any sound for a long time.
"Ding, ding, ding—"
The class ringtone came from behind the two of them. Gu Ming'an turned his head and looked in the direction of the school. Then he quickly calmed down his emotions. When he looked at Gu Yunji again, his eyes were still indifferent. He sneered:
"Hmph, I can't control what others are doing, but Cheng Yan, I just don't feel happy about him. I just want to target him. So what can you do? If you have the ability, you will protect him again and again, I'm afraid... you always have it.
A place that cannot be protected."
As he said that, Gu Ming'an turned around and walked towards the school. His voice was distant, as if he was warning or admonishment: "Gu Yunji, you are also a child of the Gu family in Songjiang. I advise you to broaden your horizons and remember your identity, and
If you are like Cheng Yan, just take care of yourself..."
Looking at Gu Ming'an's back as he left, Gu Yunji narrowed his eyes slightly, and his chest was filled with depression.
It seems that communicating with Gu Mingan himself is not feasible. Cheng Yan is born in a slightly cold family and there is no one behind him. He may have to suffer a great loss under Gu Mingan one day, but he still has to tell his elders about this matter...
That night, Gu Kaiqi's study room.
After hearing Gu Yunji talk about the causes and consequences, Gu Kaiqi frowned, and anger was hidden in his eyes: "I didn't expect Gu Mingan to be so reckless and bully Cheng Yan in public. It seems that we have really spoiled him!"
Gu Kaiqi took a deep breath and looked at Gu Yunji and said, "Yunji, I will tell your uncle about this matter and ask him to find time to teach Gu Mingan a good lesson. He will not make him embarrassed Cheng Yan anymore. You can rest assured."
Seeing that Gu Yunji pursed his lips and said nothing, as if he was not satisfied with this statement, Gu Kaiqi asked again: "What's wrong with Yunji? Do you have any concerns?"
"Uncle Fourth, are you sure you are not perfunctory to me?" Gu Yunji smiled bitterly and looked up at him, "You watched you grow up with cousin Ming'an. You must know better than me. You think you do this.
, Will it work? Will he listen?"
Gu Yunji and the Gu family in Fucheng are not very familiar with each other. The only one who is relatively close to him is the fourth uncle Gu Kaiqi. Gu Yunji thought that he was a sensible person and should not favor Gu Ming'an, so he told him everything in the future, hoping that he could be properly
Solve this matter.
But the answer given by Gu Kaiqi was to inform Gu Kaili of this matter and let him, as Gu Ming'an's father, solve it. Gu Yunji understood that Gu Kaiqi was just Gu Ming'an's uncle after all, and it was difficult to intervene in person, but it was a little too perfunctory.
Didn’t it just give the other party the opportunity to turn big things into small things, and fool the matter away?
Maybe Gu Mingan may have resentment because of this and will become more and more revenge on Cheng Yan in the future, which will make the situation worse.
Although Gu Ming'an is not a good match, he is a child of the Gu family. In any case, he is closer to Cheng Yan, an outsider. Gu Kaiqi does not want to make a big deal, nor does he want to blame Gu Ming'an too much. If he can do his best to fool him, he will be able to do his best to make things difficult.
It is naturally the best to embellish the peace.
Gu Kaiqi was thoughtful when he said that he was silent, and then he said for a while: "What do you hope?"
Gu Yunji raised his bright eyes and looked at him, and said slowly and clearly: "I hope to let my grandfather come forward and recruit Cheng Yan on behalf of the Songjiang Gu family."
Gu Kaiqi was stunned when he heard this: "Welcome to recruit? Why?"
Gu Yunji continued: "This can reflect his grandfather's importance to Cheng Yan, so that Gu Mingan dares not act rashly. Secondly, it can also improve Cheng Yan's status. With the Gu family in Songjiang as his backer, his career will be smoother in the future.
”
Although Gu Kaizhen had already started to fund Cheng Yan before, it was limited to money and was not supported in other aspects. Moreover, this was from Gu Kaizhen's personal behavior, which could not represent the entire Gu family, and it could not be compared with Gu Zhengde's personal solicitation.
Gu Mingan is a bully of the weak and afraid of the strong, and it is very difficult to deal with. The reason why he dares to target Cheng Yan like this is because he has no backer behind him and no one supports him. Since that is the case, then he will improve Cheng Yan's status from the root, even if Gu Mingan cannot be allowed to
He completely stopped provoking his mind, but if he could make him worry about it, it would be better to ensure that the situation was calm before the provincial examination.
Gu Kaiqi's eyes flashed, then stared at Gu Yunji's eyes steadily and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know that recruiting scholars is a major event that must be treated with caution, which is related to the future development and fate of the family, not as follows.
Anyone can win the favor of your grandfather. Cheng Yan is nameless and unrealized, why should he do it?"
"At the age of ten, I became a scholar at the age of fourteen, and I won the second place in the county exam in one fell swoop. Is it qualified?"
"With my own strength, I was admitted to submitting articles to Luxi Academy. Is it qualified?"
"As soon as I entered the academy, I won the first place in the monthly exam. I have never fallen out of the top three in the past three years. Is such a score sufficient to be qualified?"
Gu Yunji kept speaking, one after another, and another loud words hit Gu Kaiqi one after another, making his heart tremble: "Cheng Yan is very talented. If he had not been burdened by his background, his achievements would have been even more dazzling.
Every step I have taken in the past few years has actually been around him, and he has never missed a single point, but no one knows it.”
Gu Yunji looked deeply at Gu Kaiqi's Mo-colored eyes, as if he wanted to hide his heart through. Every word was like a falling jade bead, crisp and powerful: "The most important thing is that his family is poor, we will help at this time.
, He must be grateful for the kindness of the Gu family. If one day he turns into a dragon and soars into a dragon, will he forget our Songjiang Gu family?"
Gu Yunji said this for the long-term interests of the Gu family and for Cheng Yan's personal development. He knew Cheng Yan's ability and believed that with his perseverance and spirit, his future achievements would definitely be great. But after all, he was born a little cold.
If you want to compete with the children of those aristocratic families, you don’t know how much effort it takes or how many detours it takes.
But if he could rely on the big tree of the Songjiang Gu family from the beginning, his path would be much easier. The Gu family made an investment with extremely low risks, but the returns were far higher than the costs they paid.
, it's simply no longer cost-effective.
Gu Kaiqi's expression seemed to be shaken, but he couldn't help but hesitate: "...I know what you said, but he is just a little scholar after all, so he won't wait for the provincial examination..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Yunji interrupted: "If Cheng Yan passed the provincial examination and Cheng Yan passed the imperial examination, there must be many forces who want to make friends with him. At that time, our Gu family is just one of many forces. What chips do you have?
Can you guarantee he will choose us?"
Seeing that Gu Kaiqi was still swaying, Gu Yunji sighed and said leisurely: "Fourth Uncle, adding icing on the cake is far less than a timely help..."
Gu Kaiqi's body trembled, and he took a deep breath after hearing this, as if he had made up his mind, and finally agreed: "Okay, I promise you. I will discuss it with your grandfather tomorrow. I will try my best to convince him, but I can't guarantee that he will be sure.
I will agree, you must be mentally prepared."
