: 144: Relative and distant

In the study, Gu Zhengde took the tea before the case and took a sip of it, raised his chin to the chair beside Gu Yunji: "Sit down. The high-end West Lake Longjing tastes very clear, you can try it."

Gu Yunji sat down as he was, but did not go to serve Long Jing on the table. He just pursed his lips without saying a word, and his chest was obviously filled with breath.

Gu Zhengde saw his reaction, but he didn't care. He drank half a cup of tea and said for no reason: "August is the provincial examination. How are you preparing? How confident are you to pass the imperial examination?"

Gu Yunji's words are as good as gold: "Still good."

"It's vague? What's the answer?" Gu Zhengde raised his eyebrows, "Be sure is to be sure, if you're not sure, if you don't know, if you don't know, where can you come from?"

"I heard from Mr. Chen that your knowledge and writing skills are extraordinary, and if nothing unexpected happens, you will definitely win this year. Since even he said that, you should have some confidence in yourself. Being humble will often be mistaken for being mistaken for

Retreat and show your strength appropriately is the way for everyone.”

Gu Yunji sneered when he heard this and said sarcastically: "Grandfather talks to me about everyone's ways? How dare you ask my grandfather, what is the way for everyone? Is it a frame-up and taint the innocence of others?"

The air stagnates for a while.

As soon as he said that, Gu Yunji felt something was wrong, so he stood up and bowed his head to admit his mistake: "My grandson made a mistake, I hope my grandfather forgives his crime."

In this era, the word "filial piety" is a person who is crushed to death. Gu Zhengde is his grandfather no matter what. He just said that he was really a bit rash and rude.

After staring at Gu Yunji quietly for a while, Gu Zhengde's aura suddenly withdrew, and his sharp gaze softly: "Forget it, it's nothing, you can sit down."

Feeling the depressed momentum pressing on his body, Gu Yunji breathed a little relieved and sat back on the chair obediently, but he no longer dared to sit as freely as before, and sat upright and upright.

"I know you are angry. I can't handle it impartially. I don't even care about right and wrong for the sake of the face of the Gu family. I just want to suppress the incident and embellish the peace." Gu Zhengde brushed the tea foam in the cup and did not look up.

Look at him, "But you have to know that I am the patriarch of the Gu family. Everything should be based on the interests of the Gu family. Different positions and perspectives of viewing things are naturally different."

"At the same time, you must remember that you are the child of my Gu family. Even if Cheng Yan has a good relationship with you, he is still an outsider and cannot be close to his own family. You can choose Cheng Yan among Gu Ming'an and Cheng Yan, but

You can’t choose Cheng Yan among the Gu family and Cheng Yan.”

Gu Yunji lowered his head and was silent. His fingers holding the teacup suddenly tightened, and his fingers turned white little by little, and anger was hidden in his eyes.

As if he saw that he was dissatisfied, Gu Zhengde's expression had not changed and continued, "Gu Yunji, your surname is Gu, and your family tree is included in the Gu family. Before you become famous, others will respect you because of your background;

After you become famous, others will measure you through your family. Whether others respect or despise you, love or hate you, is not only because of you personally, but also because of the power behind you."

"Your life is closely tied to your family from the beginning. When you stand out, your family is proud of you; when you are scolded, your family is ashamed of you, and vice versa, this is true for everyone in the world, you

No matter how reluctant you are, you can't change this fact."

Gu Yunji felt a string in his mind being plucked heavily, and suddenly there was a constant sound of sound, which made his mind tremble.

He has always had no impression of everyone in the Gu family in the Fucheng City, and his feelings are not deep. He seems to have just been named as a relative, but he has no real relatives. There is no sense of identity and belonging.

But it is undeniable that he is indeed always enjoying the shade of the Gu family. From the admission qualification of Luxi Academy to the opportunity to listen to Chen He's teachings again, and every time he introduces himself, the other party heard the "Songjiang Gu family"

After the four words ", the surprise and respect shown by the Gu family have penetrated into all aspects of life.

This is the Daxia Dynasty, a feudal society based on clan relations, not the modern society in which everyone was independent individuals in the previous life. If Gu Yunji wanted to take the imperial examination smoothly and go further in the officialdom, he had to rely on it.

The clan behind it.

Perhaps it is because Gu Yunji spent most of his time in Luxi Academy, which is almost isolated from the outside world, so he has no personal feelings about the impact on the clan.

So when Gu Zhengde said this, he woke up like a dream and felt how limited his previous cognition was.

Gu Zhengde was right. Even though he and Gu Ming'an are in the same situation today, when Gu's family is in trouble, he and Gu Ming'an still have to stand on the same front and work together to the outside world.

But he was a little unwilling to give up after all. Family is very important, but that means that family is more important than anything else, so big that he wants him to give up his friends?

Thinking of this, Gu Yunji rubbed the teacup in his hand, with a deep ink in his eyes.

As his thoughts drifted away, he heard Gu Zhengde's cold voice: "After that, you are not wrong at all today."

"It was discovered in advance that Gu Ming'an hid Ruyi in Cheng Yan's room, but did not tell the elders but put it away privately. This is a mistake. Knowing that Gu Ming'an deliberately framed Cheng Yan, he had to wait until the scene was out of control before taking out Ruyi.

Secondly; I still care about the situation and harm the face of the Gu family while I have already expressed my desire to calm down, but I still care about the matter and do not want to give up my intentions. This is the third mistake."

Gu Zhengde looked as usual, and while talking, he gently scraped the edge of the cup, the clear pronunciations fell into Gu Yunji's ears, which made him suffocate his breathing.

As he said that, Gu Zhengde raised his head and stared quietly into his eyes: "But I didn't punish you like Gu Ming'an, do you know why?"

Gu Yunji's throat rolled, his voice a little awkward: "...Why?"

"Because you are more worthy of cultivation and attention than Gu Ming'an." Gu Zhengde gathered his eyes and looked back on the tea in the cup. "He is a person who is focused and has a tough heart. He took the first case in the first county exam, and then he was in Luxi.

In just two and a half years, the academy has been appointed as Chief Xu Shan as his teacher and has been praised by His Majesty for several times. He has achieved such achievements at a young age and has a bright future."

"In the past few decades of my Zhang family, the last one who has such talent is your cousin Gu Mingxuan. It is precisely because you are much better than Gu Ming'an that I turned a blind eye and didn't care about you.

The fault."

"If it were you who looked like three years ago..." Gu Zhengde chuckled and glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, "I won't take so much into consideration. I just punish you and Gu Ming'an together. No matter what, I don't care.

What do you think in your heart?”

"Of course I know that even if it is the current result, you are still not satisfied. But-"

Gu Zhengde let out a long sigh, his eyes as deep as ink: "If you want to get more, you have to show your strength to prove that you are worthy of this."
