midsummer.

The gurgling stream in Xiaozhu is very cool.

After Gu Jiu read the letter from Northwest, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

There is no hope of successfully becoming the Xiliang State Teacher.

Yang Ji and Chen Zhuangshi will return to Beijing soon.

These two have great talents, I have to think about how to arrange them.

Gu Yu said: Next year will be the imperial examination year, and next year will also be the last year of my third term. It's better to let this brother Yang take over my position. It just so happens that I'm tired of staying in the capital, and I plan to take Minmin out of Beijing for a few days. Years, a few years of clean life.

In Gu Yu's family, parents, brothers, nephews and nieces all count on Gu Yu to eat alone.

Especially Gu Yu's mother, who is a wonderful thing.

If there is nothing to do, something will happen, and if something happens, it will be even more serious. I can't wait to poke a hole in the sky.

Although Gu Yu and his family didn't live together, they couldn't stand up to making troubles every now and then.

A family, broken bones and connected tendons, these days officials must pay attention to filial piety.

If something happened at home, even if Gu Yu was full of anger, he still had to come forward to solve it.

Huyang County Master can help once, twice, to deter the Gu family from making trouble for Chen Min.

But it can't happen every time the Gu family has an accident, and the master of Huyang princess will come forward every time.

If the Gu family doesn't trouble Chen Min, they can trouble Gu Yu.

Chen Min, Gu Yu and his wife are one, and Gu Yu is distracted with family affairs every day, so Chen Min will naturally be affected.

It's hard to live!

For the mess of the Gu family, Chen Min complained a lot and shed a lot of tears. She had to hide it from Princess Huyang for fear of being discovered.

Chen Min was afraid of Princess Huyang's violent temper, afraid that it would be difficult for Gu Yu to be in the middle, and afraid that Princess Huyang would not give Gu Yu face. Also afraid of being scolded by Huyang.

In short, all kinds of concerns can be concealed.

Gu Yu was also very quiet and thoughtful.

The family members are always holding back and never think about him.

Then you might as well leave the capital,

Take your wife and children outside.

Stay outside for ten or twenty years, and come back when parents need to keep their filial piety after a hundred years.

Gu Yu didn't say these thoughts.

He only said that he wanted to let it out and live a quiet life for a few years.

Gu Jiu said to him: The magistrate of Xinmin County, you will serve three consecutive terms starting with you. For the fourth term, the court will replace you no matter what. Since you also have plans to let go, I will arrange this matter.

Gu Yu felt relieved, Thank you, sister Xiaojiu, I will leave this matter to you. Next year's imperial examination, Yang Ji will definitely be fine. Yang Ji will succeed me. I think he is the most suitable.

Gu Jiu said: Yang Ji is very talented in reading. If the imperial examination next year goes well, his ranking will not be low. In this way, he will definitely enter the Imperial Academy. The Imperial Academy is a must for scholars to go to official careers. If you ask him to give up the Imperial Academy and go to Xinmin County as a county magistrate, he may not agree.

Gu Yu smiled, Sister Xiaojiu must have a way to convince him.

Gu Jiu shook his head, I can't guarantee to convince him. Besides, his qualifications are too low, and he comes from Shanhe Academy, so the official department may not agree. In the end, Shanhe Academy was established too shortly. There are too few, so that when it comes to employing people, Mrs. Ben can't choose a suitable candidate.

Talent is rare!

Being an official these days requires not only academic qualifications, but also qualifications.

Academic qualifications can be solved by Shanhe Academy.

There is nothing to do with seniority, you can only endure year after year.

Gu Yu asked: Is Su Zheng unwilling to take over as the magistrate of Xinmin County?

Gu Jiu nodded, He has already decided to go to Jiangling Mansion and is going through the formalities. It is estimated that in ten days and a half months, the appointment of the Ministry of Officials will come down. At that time, my wife will personally implement it for him.

Gu Teng can't do it either?

Gu Jiu laughed, His surname is Gu, so of course he can't. It's impossible for the imperial court and His Majesty to allow the Gu family to control Xinmin County all the time, you should know that.

Gu Yu asked again: Is there no suitable candidate for the First Prince?

None of his people can be used, the goal is too big, and it is easy to attract suspicion in the palace.

Gu Jiu was outspoken, and all he had to say was that His Majesty the Emperor was at odds with the eldest prince and his son, and that there was a rift between the father and son. You have to pay attention to the impact of doing things.

Gu Yu shook his head, feeling sorry for Gu Jiu, After much deliberation, Yang Ji is the most suitable.

Let's talk about it when Yang Ji comes back. There's no rush. It won't be too late to make up your mind after the imperial examination next year.

In her heart, Gu Jiu agreed with Gu Yu's suggestion.

It must be no problem for Yang Ji to be the county magistrate of Xinmin County.

I'm afraid that it will delay the other party's future, and even resentment will grow in my heart.

Gu Yu asked in a low voice: Sister Xiaojiu, have you ever considered Duke Sanyuan?

Yang Yuanqing?

Exactly! San Yuangong's qualifications as an official are sufficient.

Gu Jiu shook his head, The majestic San Yuangong is a county magistrate, and he is reckless. Why don't you stay in the academy, teach a few more students for the academy, take a few more Jinshi exams, and earn a wave of fame.

The role of Sanyuan Gong is not in the officialdom, but in the literary world. It is to leave a strong and colorful stroke in the hearts of scholars all over the world.

Gu Jiu wanted everyone to know Sanyuan Gong and Shanhe Academy.

Sanyuan Gong is the golden signboard of Shanhe Academy, and it must not be smashed.

A mere county magistrate can't compare to a bigwig in the literary world.

There are tens of thousands of county magistrates, and only a few big names in the literary world.

The weight is self-evident.

Gu Yu was worried, Sanyuan Gong can't use it, and Yang Ji can't use it either. Who does my sister plan to use? The candidate for the county magistrate of Xinmin County needs to be decided as soon as possible.

Gu Jiu smiled, Actually, I have someone to choose, but there are more variables in it.

Who did my sister fall in love with?

Gu Jiu said softly, The eldest grandson of the Sun family, Sun Minzhi.

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, Zhou Yi's ex-husband?

Exactly!

Why would my sister think of using the Sun family? The Sun family and my sister are not of the same mind. Isn't my sister worried about the Sun family's secret tricks?

Gu Jiu played with the folding fan.

She found out that Huang Qubing liked to play with folding fans, which made sense.

It's a good thing sometimes.

She said to Gu Yu: I also want to hold Xinmin County firmly in my hands, but I must also show my loyalty to Your Majesty. I do not regard Xinmin County as my private property, let alone my fiefdom. The Sun family is neutral. If you really can't find a suitable candidate, Sun Minzhi is your personal choice.

Gu Yu said: But Sun Minzhi lives in the sixth rank, how can he be a seventh rank county magistrate?

Gu Jiu smiled, Wailang, his sixth grade member, is far more important than the county magistrate of Xinmin County. The Sun family has stood in the world for hundreds of years, and has gone through three dynasties with a unique inheritance. The secret of the Sun family's self-protection is neutral.

However, first the late emperor took the honor of writing the imperial edict from the Sun family, and then the Sun family was deliberately suppressed by His Majesty. In addition, the Sun family's participation in the reduction of nobles has offended many nobles, and life has not been easy in the past few years. The son of the family has not been promoted for several years. If I show kindness to the Sun family, do you think the Sun family will seize the opportunity?

Gu Yu thought for a moment, My younger sister also said that the Sun family can protect themselves only by a neutral position, and they may not accept my sister's kindness. I think the Sun family does not want to be branded as His Royal Highness the First Prince.

Gu Jiu nodded, You're right. In fact, it doesn't matter whether Sun Minzhi is the county magistrate of Xinmin County or not. The important thing is that I am very indifferent to the Sun family's group of scholars.

If one or two grandchildren can be fooled into teaching at Shanhe Academy, the reputation of Shanhe Academy will be inlaid with a layer of gold, shining like gold. Who doesn't know the century-old Sun family in Jiannan Road. After three dynasties, the top family. The works of the ancestors of the Sun family are still a must-read list for scholars today.

The Sun family is so awesome.

Yang Yuanqing, the Duke of Sanyuan, is a living legend, but he still has to breathe a sigh of relief and has to write a few more books. He may be established as a sage 10 or 20 years after his death.

And the ancestor of the Sun family is a dead legend. He has long been established as a sage and saint.

Inside the Pantheon, there are tablets of the ancestors of the Sun family.

The influence of the Sun family in the literary world can be seen.

The Sun family also lived up to the expectations of the Sun family ancestors, and their descendants are all good at reading.

In this dynasty, the Sun family produced seven Jieyuan and two champions.

The number of Jinshi is countless.

If a scholar is in Sun's family, he is illiterate and has no way out. will be discriminated against.

For ordinary people, how rare is a scholar. There is a scholar in the family, but he must not confess it.

In the Sun family, scholarly talents are worthless, and they are all hot chickens.

If you don't take a Jinshi exam and go home, you will be sorry to your ancestors.

Gu Jiu began to covet the Sun family's scholars very early on.

Over the years, she tried several times through various channels, and the Sun family rejected Gu Jiu's offer without hesitation.

Now that the Sun family is in a difficult situation, Gu Jiu wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune. If you can get a scholar from the Sun family, you are making money.

The county magistrate of Xinmin County is nothing compared to the reputation of Shanhe Academy.

I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint my sister. As far as I know, the Sun family is extremely stubborn. When the first princess asked her natal family for help, the head of the Sun clan refused to help her. Until the first princess passed away, the Sun family didn't help one time.

Gu Jiu said: The matter of the first concubine involved a struggle for the succession. The Sun family will definitely not help out in order to protect themselves. Now I just want to invite the Sun family to teach in the academy. The nature is different. I still have a chance to talk about it.

Gu Yu said: I still think Sun Minzhi is not suitable, my sister should choose someone else.

Gu Jiu smiled and said, Don't worry, I will make a list of candidates, examine them one by one, and then make a decision. If Fourth Brother Gu has a suitable candidate, please recommend it to me.
