My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire!

The Queen Mother was lying on the bed, unable to sleep.

Speaking from the bottom of her heart, she never thought about letting the Gu family leave the capital.

However, she also felt that the emperor was right. After Gu Shouxin had been away for a few years and made political achievements, she might as well be promoted to him when he came back.

She did have a way to get the emperor to reward the Gu family with a title, but if the Gu family didn't take care of themselves, could they keep the title?

She is already seventy, and she doesn't know how many more years she can live. She can protect the Gu family for more than ten years at most.

What about more than ten years later?

The emperor was raised by her personally, and she believed that the emperor could do it when she asked him to protect Gu's family before she died.

But what about the next emperor? Who can guarantee that?

…

Gu family.

After dinner, Gu Shouxin asked Uncle Gu to follow the two elders.

When they arrived at the second elder's yard, the three of them looked at Gu Shouxin.

Gu Shouxin told them what the emperor said today.

Uncle Gu was the first to be reluctant: "Huh? How can this be done? Didn't we agree that the whole family will be together? If you take your younger siblings to Kuncheng, I might as well take my parents back to the village. This capital city There’s really no way around it!”

Grandpa Gu pursed his lips and said: "Going to Kuncheng has its advantages and disadvantages. The good thing is that you have managed Kuncheng well, and when you return to the capital again, you will definitely get a promotion. The bad thing is that the place in Kuncheng will be better. Bian Luan, it’s your first time as an official, second brother, so you may not be able to achieve the governance results you want. Just as your elder brother said, if you bring your second daughter-in-law over, our family might as well go back to the village."

Grandma Gu: "Then let's go together! We agreed at the beginning that the whole family will be tied together. Since we know that Kun City is difficult to manage, we can go there as a family and at least share some of the trivial matters in life with the second child."

Gu Shouxin raised his eyebrows. He and his mother thought of going together. He wanted to go to a family and leave the others in the capital. He was really not at ease at all.

Gu Shouxin: "Father, mother, eldest brother, it has been at least three years since this time. Kuncheng is a border town, bordered by enemy countries on three sides, and there will be small fights with the enemy from time to time."

Grandma Gu looked at Gu Shouxin: "Second brother, you just say whether you are going or not. If you go, we will go. If you don't go, we won't go. Now the family knows the old lady, and the old lady has always wanted to protect her. Ours, but our family's identity is a bit embarrassing. Even if the emperor is devoted to our family, what about the emperor's sons? It's not good for our family to be separated, so we have to stay together. While those princes don't know our identity, let's go Kuncheng will conquer the world. From now on, even if the old lady and the emperor are gone, we will still have the strength to protect ourselves!"

Gu Shouxin looked at Grandma Gu in surprise.

He, a cheap old lady, rarely speaks for such long periods of time. She always follows her own preferences. He never thought that the old lady had such far-reaching thoughts that coincided with his own.

To put it mildly, they said they were relatives of the emperor, legitimate direct descendants of the royal family, but the throne was not in their lineage.

The Empress Dowager can protect them, but when will the Empress Dowager disappear?

He is not afraid of anything alone, but he has a family to protect.

The emperor was right. It was really difficult for him to get promoted to an official position in the capital. Even if the empress dowager and the emperor forcibly awarded their family a reward, it would not be enough. Instead, it would make the prince notice and find out the details of their family. Then their family faces more crises.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Empress Dowager is still here and her words work, she can get more benefits and go to Kun City to strengthen her wings. When he returns to the capital, he won't have to think so much.
