Green Tea Specialist Male Lead

Chapter 53 The hero is a scholar

The eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Li family are looking forward to Li Cheng and Gu Linglong’s adoption of their son, and they will live a good life with their son in the future.

As a result, I didn’t expect that a few months later, Gu Linglong was diagnosed with pregnancy!

Li Cheng and Gu Linglong are so happy, this is the child they have been looking forward to for years, regardless of whether they are male or female, having a biological child is always happy.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Li family were most disappointed. The adoption they were looking forward to was probably gone. After they had hope, they were disappointed. It was not even more uncomfortable. But they didn’t dare to say anything. After all, the entire Li family now depends on Li Cheng, and Li Cheng has to rely on Gu Linglong’s eldest brother for promotion. The Li family dare not offend the second room at all.

When Gu Wenjing received the good news that Gu Linglong was pregnant, she was also relieved for her sister.

Although he was able to suppress Li Chengbu’s concubine, Gu Linglong did not have a biological child. It was really difficult for Gu Linglong to have a hard time in this inexhaustible ancient time. Just gossip and rumors were enough for her. Now that she is able to give birth, she will have her own children under the knees of Chenghuan.

Luo Qingyi is also happy for Gu Linglong’s sister-in-law. The Gu family understands Gu Linglong’s pressure best. Luo Qingyi has not been pregnant since she married into Gu family for three years. Even if her in-laws and father-in-law have not urged her, she still feels a lot of pressure. Not to mention that Gu Linglong has not been pregnant for more than five years, and her in-laws and mates are also anxious, making her bear the psychological pressure twice.

So Luo Qingyi can understand Gu Linglong’s difficulties, and she is really happy for Gu Linglong now.

Luo Qingyi prepared a generous gift and sent it to Li’s house. There were all kinds of supplies needed for pregnancy. The baby supplies were all men’s and women’s, which was very considerate.

After reading the gift list, Gu’s mother praised Luo Qingyi’s thoughtfulness and was more satisfied with Luo Qingyi’s daughter-in-law.

A few months after Gu Linglong was pregnant, Luo Qingyi also diagnosed with pregnancy. This is Luo Qingyi’s third child.

This time, Gu Wenjing stayed with her at home from the diagnosis of Ximai until she gave birth. He never traveled far, and made up for the regret of not being able to be with her when he gave birth to two sons.

After Gu Linglong gave birth to a son, Luo Qingyi gave birth to a daughter.

Gu Wenjing didn’t know if this daughter was Gu Wan, the poor child who died in Luo Liuyi’s hands in the original plot. After all, the plot has long since changed, and the child born to him and Luo Qingyi is naturally different from the child in the original plot.

But for this daughter, Gu’s father still named her Gu Wan.

Gu Wenjing did not object to this name, it was just the same name, he didn’t have to entangle the original plot, anyway, his daughter, he would naturally protect her life peaceful and happy.

Gu Wan is a girl. It is not easy for women in this era. Gu Linglong knows that the husband and son-in-law Li Cheng chosen by Gu Wenjing for her before getting married, she promised well before marriage and not accepting concubines. Only Gu Linglong had a single wife in her whole life. Five years of childlessness was shaken, and the mind of concubine was moved. If it were not for Gu Wenjing to hold him down, and then Gu Linglong gave birth to a son to satisfy Li Cheng’s successor’s wishes, now the two might not be able to be a happy couple in harmony.

Gu Wenjing couldn’t help thinking about the possibility of cultivating a child foster husband for his daughter.

Gu Linglong had previously mentioned jokingly about letting her son be married to Gu Linglong, but Gu Wenjing had not considered Li Cheng and Gu Linglong’s son. The cousin was too close. If they got married, wouldn’t it be true that they would have a crippled child. Blame his baby girl?

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing planned to be the chief examiner of imperial examinations. He didn’t dare to think about the chief examiner of the examination, but he succeeded in going to a state capital with a prosperous style in the south to become the chief examiner of the rural examination.

After the township test was released, the young Xieyuan, who he personally named, was talented and came from a poor family. With a move in Gu Wenjing’s heart, he opened his mouth to accept Xie Yuan as a disciple at a banquet where he was thanked by his master.

This Xie Yuan naturally had no reason to disagree, and immediately worshipped him as a teacher ecstatically.

To be the chief examiner of the imperial examination is indeed the best choice to expand your influence. In this year’s state capital and township examination, all the jurors must recognize him as a teacher. Although the relationship between the teacher and the student is not as close as the relationship between the teacher and the disciple, it is in the imperial court. China is a natural alliance.

A few years later, Gu Wenjing became the chief examiner of the Beijing Municipal Examination, and became the advisor for the future scholars of that class.

Gradually, as time passed, Gu Wenjing’s influence over the court became greater and greater, even if he came from a poor family, he slowly managed his own circle of interests.

He also knew how to cater to the emperor’s mind. The more officials became bigger and stronger, the power became stronger and stronger, and the emperor also trusted his confidant.

When his daughter Gu Wan was ten years old, Gu Wenjing had already taken the position of chief minister of the cabinet, so powerful that he was even secretly called Gu Xiang.

You know, the cabinet was born to limit the power of the prime minister. There was no cabinet before, only the prime minister. The prime minister was too powerful, so he split the position of the prime minister into the left and the right. Later, the office of the prime minister was abolished and changed to Cabinet system.

The chief minister of the cabinet has to be constrained by the second minister and other cabinet elders.

However, Gu Wenjing can be called Gu Xiang as the chief assistant of the cabinet. It is conceivable that his power is now comparable to the prime minister before the appearance of the cabinet system, and he is truly the head of a hundred officials.

Gu Xiangdang also appeared quietly in the court, and many officials with real power were labeled as Gu Xiangdang, allowing Gu Wenjing’s influence to spread throughout the court.

What is even more frightening is that Gu Wenjing has not aroused the emperor’s jealousy even when he is overwhelmingly powerful. The emperor still regards him as a minister of arms and arms.

It is precisely because of the emperor’s trust that Gu Wenjing, a poor student, can climb to the position of one person and ten thousand people in less than twenty years of entering officialdom.

Now that the next generation of the emperor’s princes have grown up, the controversy has entered a fierce stage, but these have not affected the Gu family for the time being. Because Gu Wenjing, the Gu Xiang, was sitting in the Gu family, no matter which prince dared to offend easily.

It’s just that they don’t dare to offend and they don’t dare to offend. There are many princes who want to win over him. After all, he has the support of such a powerful cabinet chief. As long as it is not too wasteful, the success rate of seizing a prostitute will increase by several percent.

So Gu Wenjing’s 10-year-old daughter, Gu Wan, was targeted.

Gu Wenjing was called by the emperor one day and asked him privately whether he had married his daughter Gu Wan.

Gu Wenjing was secretly angry: “Which **** is aiming at my 10-year-old daughter?” ’

Then Gu Wenjing replied to the emperor: “Weichen’s daughter is only ten years old, and she has not yet married.”

The emperor smiled and said, “How about Gu Aiqing and me being a relative? My eighth son, only three years older than Aiqing’s daughter, is a good match.”

Gu Wenjing calmly refused and said: “Your Majesty, the daughters of the ministers cannot marry into the royal family. The ministers are the ministers of your majesty. However, the princes are now fighting for the reserve position. The ministers love their daughters like a fool, and cannot guarantee that their daughter will marry the prince. Later, we can still maintain our original intention.”

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing had a good relationship with the emperor, and he dared to speak the truth at certain appropriate times. The emperor was not angry now that he had bluntly accused the princes of the controversy.

The emperor thought about it, and then couldn’t help but think that the eighth prince’s birth mother, Concubine Shu, wanted to marry Gu Wenjing’s daughter for the eighth prince. Could it be that she wanted to win over a strong father-in-law for the eighth prince in advance? Stared at his throne before he was an adult?

If an adult prince wants to marry Gu Wenjing’s daughter, the emperor will definitely think more about it, but the eight princes still live in the harem, study in the study room, and have not participated in politics because they are still underage. Therefore, the emperor did not feel right to the young son of the eight princes. Other adult sons are as wary. So after concubine Shu’s side, the emperor really wanted to let Gu Wenjing’s daughter be the eighth prince concubine.

Now that Gu Wenjing directly said it was broken, the emperor’s suspiciousness reappeared.

Gu Wenjing looked up and glanced at the emperor’s uncertain performance, presumably the emperor would not consider letting his daughter Gu Wan marry into the royal family as the prince concubine from now on.

The emperor’s consideration is always different from that of the princes. In order to seize the princes, the princes wish their wives and natal families more powerful, but the emperor would not want his son to marry a powerful natal wife, which would threaten his throne. If this prince becomes the throne in the future, the exclusive power of relatives will also be a huge problem.

After Gu Wenjing returned home from the palace, he sat aside watching his daughter Gu Wan, who was happily flying a kite in the garden, and sighed slightly.

Luo Qingyi, who was with him by his side, asked, “Why sigh?”

Now both of them are old couples and old wives, and they don’t have any scruples when they speak, so just ask if they have any questions.

Gu Wenjing also replied directly: “Wan’er is so young that she was targeted at her marriage. I am afraid that she will marry an inhumane. Those who want to marry her are for my power. If I retired, Changming But what if Wan’er’s future husband-in-law changes face when she fails to get up?”

Although he is confident that he will be able to clean up the bearer after retirement, but Gu Wan is sad, but he cannot avoid it.

So the best way is to choose a good match for Gu Wan that is truly worthy of entrusting her for life.

But a daughter is easy to get, and a good match is hard to find.

Gu Wenjing felt that he had to live a long time and stand for a long time at the pinnacle of power in order to keep his family peaceful throughout their lives.

Luo Qingyi smiled and said: “Wan’er is still young, are you worried about her marriage a little bit earlier now? It’s better to think about the marriage of Changsheng.”

Gu Wenjing’s eldest son, Gu Changsheng, is sixteen years old. Now his bones have been restored all the year round and look no different from ordinary people. However, both Gu Wenjing and Luo Qingyi were worried that he could not stand the harsh conditions of the imperial examination room, so he was only allowed to take the exam. A talented person, didn’t let him go to the test.

Gu Wenjing trained him as a master of calligraphy and painting, and has already considered that in order to secure his future life, he intends to ask the emperor for a vain title and mention his identity.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing pondered for a while, and said to Luo Qingyi: “When you choose a long-life wife, don’t choose someone with too high an official position, but you must be a prostitute.”

He has decided to let his second son, Gu Changming, support the Gu family. He does not have high expectations for the frail eldest son. He only hopes that his life will be safe and prosperous. Naturally, he will not marry him with the daughter of a high-ranking family.

Although Gu Wenjing made this decision, he still talked with his two sons in private.

The eldest son, Gu Changsheng, is very clear about his physical condition. He looks no different from ordinary people and does not affect his life expectancy, but his foundation is still worse than that of people with good health. The difficult condition of the imperial examination is that a well-healthy candidate can be tortured for most of his life. Naturally, he will not have to fight for his fate for the sake of his tone.

Therefore, Gu Changsheng has no objection to Gu Wenjing’s arrangement. Although there is some regret in his heart, his son can make up for this regret in the future.

Gu Chang knew that his elder brother was not in good health when he was a child. He will support this family in the future and protect his elder brother and sister.

Therefore, Gu Changming has no objection to Gu Wenjing’s arrangement.

The two sons are very sensible, and Gu Wenjing is very pleased.

The Gu family made steady progress under Gu Wenjing’s arrangements. A few years later, Gu Linglong’s son Li Qian also reached the age of marriage.

Li Qian is the child that Li Cheng and Gu Linglong finally hoped to come, and it is inevitable to spoil him a little, and he is still in vain. But apart from no fame, there are no bad habits.

Gu Linglong mentioned a joke once again, and wanted to marry Gu Wan for her son Li Qian.

Li Cheng is now also a member of the third rank, but compared to Gu Xianggu Wenjing who is in full swing, Li Cheng is still a bit far behind. If he weren’t for Gu Wenjing’s brother-in-law, he would not dare to imagine that his son, who had no fame, could marry Gu Xiang’s only prostitute.

But if Gu Linglong speaks, it is a kiss.

However, Gu Wenjing directly refused: “No.”

Gu Linglong wondered: “Why? Brother, Qian’er and Wan’er are cousins. Since childhood, wouldn’t it be okay to be married to each other? Is it because you don’t like Qian’er without fame? Fame can be tested! He is now I have already studied hard at home, and I can wait for Qian’er to be admitted to Juren before coming to marry Wan’er.”

There is only one real reason for Gu Wenjing’s rejection of Li Qian as his son-in-law. The cousin’s blood relationship is too close.

However, no one believes this reason, because it is very common to get married on behalf of brothers and sisters at this time.

So Gu Wenjing said: “Linglong, when you were wronged, you know how I suppressed Li Cheng. In the future, if Wan’er is wronged, I will certainly not let Wan’er’s husband easily. Li Qian is my nephew. , I don’t want him to become my son-in-law and ruin the relationship between you and me in the future.”

If Li Qian married Gu Wan and changed his mind to accept a concubine in the future, what would his uncle and father-in-law do? It’s not that he can’t deal with Li Qian cruelly, but Gu Linglong is Li Qian’s biological mother. Can she watch her own brother clean up her own son?

Gu Wenjing didn’t think that between his brother and his son, Gu Linglong would choose him as his brother.

Between Li Qian and Gu Wan, Gu Linglong would also choose Li Qian’s pro-son instead of Gu Wan’s niece and daughter-in-law.

It’s not that Gu Wenjing has no confidence in the relationship between their brothers and sisters, but that this is normal. Compared with their own brothers and sisters, they are of course closer to their own children. Just like Gu Wenjing’s heart, Gu Wan’s status now surpasses Gu Linglong.

Gu Linglong’s face stiffened and wanted to refute something. However, she opened her mouth and looked at Gu Wenjing’s serious expression. In the end, she didn’t say the phrase’Qian’er will not live up to Wan’er’.

Because she couldn’t guarantee that even Li Cheng, who had promised to be alone in her life, was shaken, let alone Li Qian, who grew up spoiled by their husband and wife. If Li Qian married Gu Wan and really failed Gu Wan, she could not imagine how her elder brother who was angry for a girl would clean up Li Qian.

So Gu Linglong simply stopped mentioning the matter of kissing.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

After Gu Linglong returned to Li’s house, Li Cheng asked her, “Did the eldest brother agree?”

Gu Linglong shook her head: “Brother can’t agree. You also know how short-term he is. If your son is moved by the mind of a concubine like you did at the beginning, your brother will not think that Qian’er is a nephew. Show mercy to his men in the face.”

Li Cheng’s expression was a little embarrassed. He was threatened by his elder brother for so many years because he wanted to take a concubine to continue the incense. Now that Gu Linglong mentions it, he is embarrassed in his heart.

However, thinking of the current power of the eldest brother, Li Cheng quickly put this embarrassment behind him, and said, “As long as Qian’er treats Wan’er well, how can the eldest brother not take care of him? With the help of elder brother, Qian’er’s future Maybe it’s bigger than my dad.”

Li Cheng had a headache when he thought of Li Qian, who still doesn’t like to read very much. He wanted to add insurance to his son’s future, and marrying the prostitute Gu Xiang’s daughter is the best shortcut.

Gu Linglong was much more sober than Li Cheng. She said, “Qian’er’s stubborn temper, do you think we can control him?”

Gu Linglong’s words came true.

Before Gu Linglong could choose a good girl for Li Qian again, Li Qian suddenly told her that he had a sweetheart.

His sweetheart is the daughter of the wealthy businessman Chen’s family, and the two have privately settled for life.

When Gu Linglong was furious, she also secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, her elder brother did not promise to give his wife to Li Qian. Otherwise, after Li Qian and Gu Wan were married, Li Qian caused a lifelong scandal with Chen’s daughter and beat him fiercely. With Gu Wan’s face, Gu Wenjing could tear him alive.

Gu Linglong was determined not to allow Li Qian to marry the Chen family’s daughter, not because she looked down on Chen’s family as a merchant, her sister-in-law Luo Qingyi was also a merchant’s daughter, and now the Luo family is already a big business. But she despised the lifelong behavior of Chen’s daughter and her son.

Li Cheng is also unwilling to let his son marry a business woman who is not helpful to his career except money.

However, Gu Linglong and Li Chengyue objected. The more Li Qian felt better than Jin Jian, and finally used a hunger strike to force his parents to compromise.

After Gu Wenjing heard about it, he said to Luo Qingyi: “Fortunately, I didn’t promise Linglong. They just spoiled the child, and they cultivated the child into a love mind.”

Li Qian was indeed overspoiled, but in the tug of war between the spoiled child and the parents who doted on the child, it was the parents who loved the child who had finally compromised.

Li Cheng and Gu Linglong felt sorry for their son not to eat, but they agreed. This is undoubtedly great news for the Chen family. The Chen family’s ability to be in-laws with the third-ranking official, and to turn a corner to catch up with Gu Xiang’s relationship, is simply a pie in the sky.

The Chen family gave their daughter a large dowry and married her into the Li Mansion.

However, Li Qian never thought that he had to marry the Chen family in such a struggle with his parents. How could his parents have a good impression of the Chen family? The Chen family, who was from a low family, married into the Li Mansion and wanted to please Gu Linglong, a mother-in-law who looked at her everywhere and didn’t know how to please.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

When Gu Wenjing learned that Gu Linglong had packed a lot of beautiful concubine rooms for her son Li Qian in order to respond to her dissatisfied daughter-in-law, Chen, she couldn’t help feeling that her sister had changed too much and he didn’t even know him. Up.

However, my sister has been married for more than 20 years, and the image of the well-behaved and sensible little girl in his memory has long been blurred.

Gu Wenjing sighed in his heart, and gradually moved further and further away from Gu Linglong.

He can only say that fortunately, he did not agree to marry his daughter to Li Qian.

Later, when Gu Wenjing chose his daughter’s husband-in-law, he was also more careful.

Finally, when Gu Wan was seventeen years old, he picked one of his own gentle and extremely grateful disciples to be his son-in-law.

His disciple’s parents have both died, and the clansman is indifferent. His teacher is the closest person to him. It can be said that he is like a master like a father.

When Gu Wan marries him, Gu Wenjing doesn’t need to consider the opinions of her relatives. He often invites his daughter and son-in-law to see him at home, so there is no difference between her daughter’s marriage and her marriage.

Gu Wan married the husband-in-law carefully selected by Gu Wenjing for her, and the days after marriage were indeed moist and chic.

Before getting married, her father was in a high position, and her parents had no concubine, so she was very much loved at home. After getting married, the husband-in-law is a good match carefully selected by the father, and he is also a disciple of the father. He has a bright future and is gentle and loving to her. Until I got older, I still kept the carefree when I was young.

Gu Wan was spoiled all her life. She was spoiled by her parents and elder brother before marrying, and she was spoiled by more husbands after marriage. With children, they will spoil her when they grow up. She truly became the envy of women in the world.

Gu Wenjing’s lifespan is also very long in this life. He has lived for more than a hundred years, until his parents, wife, and children have died, and he stopped breathing silently in his sleep.

Back in the system space, Gu Wenjing saw the big eyeball subsystem. The first question was: “What’s the matter with my wonderful reaction to my child?”

He was pretty sure that it was a blood relationship between father and son, because he also had that kind of reaction to his other two children.

The system said: “This is a hidden skill that belongs to you. You used to have this kind of feeling for your own children. It’s just that you haven’t changed children. You have always ignored this feeling and only regarded it as having a child for yourself. Joy.”

Gu Wenjing recalled that it seemed to be the case. Whether it was the first time he crossed the Chenghou Mansion, he also had the kind of affection and excitement for the child Cheng Yuhua gave him. The second time he crossed the daughter with Tang Li, he also loved him. Little princess…

After getting the answer from the system, Gu Wenjing felt that this hidden skill was very practical, at least there is no need to worry that the raised child is not his own in the future.

“Continue to the next world!”

Gu Wenjing opened his eyes again and heard someone in front of him say loudly: “I’ve told you this question type many times, and I will send sub-items during the exam! Anyone who makes a mistake in this question will raise his hand to me. Check it out!”

Gu Wenjing looked at his desk full of books and test papers, this familiarity came to his face, and then looked up at the spitting teacher and the surrounding students on the podium. He felt as if he had come to a high school class. .

He quickly piled up the wall of books in front of him to block his face so as not to be seen by the teacher, and then closed his eyes and began to receive the original owner’s memory and the story of the world.
