Gong Jian himself could not understand these problems, but he knew that the things he had done did not seem to be worthy of praise from others. It seemed that these things that happened to him were normal and ordinary things.
But now he didn't want to argue with his second brother on this issue. After all, having a clear goal would be of certain benefit to the second brother's life. He coughed lightly, and then turned the topic back to
Regarding the Zhao family's affairs.
"Why does it involve us? Those people did mention that Zhao Rong's uncle was indeed extremely talented. Anyway, when he passed the Jinshi examination and relied on the financial resources of the Zhao family, he became the governor of one side.
.It is said that at that time, he was young and promising, and he took his wife with him to take office in other places."
At this point, Gong Jian paused for a moment before continuing: "I don't know what happened to him while he was in office. Both the husband and wife died in other places. Originally, everyone thought that the Zhao family would be in his hands.
We are growing and developing again, but such an accident happened, and it still makes everyone sad to mention it now."
Gong Yu thought for a moment and then said: "Zhao Rong did mention his uncle. But he only mentioned that he had an uncle who was an official in another place but died unexpectedly. As for the others,
He didn't say a word."
Gong Jian mentioned the uncle Zhao Rong, but did not pay special attention to this person. Therefore, Zhao Rong did not introduce this person to what Gong Yu said and was not disappointed at all.
He just sighed softly and then said: "The main reason why I mentioned this person is because before the head of the Zhao family, whom everyone was optimistic about, took office, the Zhao family had not appeared for many generations. It can be
The head of the family who leads the Zhao family members on the road to advancement."
Gong Yu listened carefully to what his eldest brother said. "It is for this reason that when the uncle Zhao Longrong was born, everyone had great expectations for him.
Hope. But this person died young, so that the momentum of the Zhao family just started to rise, and it fell again and again. As for the current head of the Zhao family, those scholars said that he was mediocre, and they all said that he was mediocre.
That’s a good thing.”
Hearing this, Gong Yu couldn't help but interrupt his eldest brother: "Brother, the current head of the Zhao family should be Zhao Rong's father, right?"
Guan Gongjian nodded seriously: "Exactly. But according to the words of those scholars, the reputation of Zhao Rong's father is not very good. It is said that this man is a bit arty and cannot be considered a scholar at all. In his studies,
There is nothing good at all,
But he is a very spendthrift person. He is always surrounded by a group of so-called scholars who follow the trend, and those people who surround the head of the Zhao family are just flattering and want to take more from the head of the Zhao family.
some benefits.”
Hearing Gong Jian's words, Gong Yu who was sitting next to him couldn't sit still. He stared at his eldest brother in disbelief with his eyes wide open. In fact, he never thought that the father of his little brother Zhao Rong was actually
With such an appearance, why are there such big differences between father and son?
Gong Jian seemed to be able to understand the surprise in his second brother's heart. He smiled helplessly, "Yeah, I couldn't believe it at the time, and I asked them about it again and again, but each of the three scholars
They all say the same thing. The biggest characteristic of the head of the Zhao family is that he spends money lavishly and thinks too highly of himself, but he doesn’t have any real talent or learning."
This news was a bit difficult to digest, at least for Gong Yu. He sat there blankly, and after a while, he seemed to slowly accept what his elder brother said.
His little brother's father was actually such a number one figure, which was really beyond Gong Yu's expectation. Originally, his eldest brother mentioned Zhao Rong's uncle, and also mentioned other people's expectations for that uncle.
, and the sadness and disappointment caused by the death of the uncle, he probably already had a rough feeling in his heart at that time.
So since the previous head of the Zhao family was so amazing and talented, the current head of the Zhao family must not be comparable to his predecessor. But he never expected that the head of the Zhao family in Zhao Rong's father's generation would be like this
A review.
But after being dazed for a moment, Gong Yu suddenly accepted the reality. After all, the situation of his little brother in the Zhao family was not optimistic. If his father really had real talents or extraordinary abilities,
Then he probably wouldn't let his son end up in such a weird situation.
"Oh, brother. I guess the main reason why Zhao Rong is in such a difficult situation in his family may be because of his father. That is also the reason why the current head of the Zhao family has too mediocre qualifications and limited abilities, right?"
Gong Yu's words connected Zhao Rong's matter with the status of the head of the Zhao family. Listening to his words, it can be seen that he now doubts whether there is someone within the Zhao family who wants to plot against Zhao.
With the status of the head of the Zhao family, he might not be able to reach out to the head of the Zhao family now, but instead directly put his hands on Zhao Rong.
After all, as the only disciple of the Zhao Family Patriarch, Zhao Rong is likely to be the next Zhao Family Patriarch. So as long as Zhao Rong is crippled or an opportunity is found to deal with Zhao Rong, the position of the next Zhao Family Patriarch will be freed up.
.
After listening to Gong Yu's words, Gong Jian frowned and thought for a moment. He said with some uncertainty: "Second brother, what you said makes some sense. But I always feel that this matter should be like this.
After all, the household affairs of the head of the Zhao family can directly affect Zhao Rong's living environment, so he should have a certain say in his family."
This is what Gong Jian has always wondered about. After all, if someone is dissatisfied with the current Zhao family head's behavior, why would they attack Zhao Rong? And judging from Zhao Rong's situation, this is not the case in the past one or two years.
Who would reach out to the only legitimate son of the head of the Zhao family so early? After all, the head of the Zhao family does not only have one son, Zhao Rong.
After analysis, the person who can lend a black hand to Zhao Rong should be the family of the head of the house. If it is to compete for the position of the next head of the Zhao family, then the most likely one should be the other sons of the head of the Zhao family, that is, Zhao
