Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family

"See you later. I'm leaving now. It's time to set off, otherwise I'll end up in the wilderness."

Gu Yao and the others nodded, waved, and watched her leave.

Gu Yao really felt it was a pity. She didn't expect that another of her good sisters had passed away, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back.

Qian Xiumin has now arrived at the Ministry of Revenue and is feeling very comfortable there.

She was a good person and good at managing things, and she had previous achievements to back her up, so no one in the Ministry of Revenue bothered her.

Qian Xiumin breathed a sigh of relief only after he slowly gained his footing.

"Ayao, let's go have a drink. I didn't expect that you would leave after picking up a good friend. I really hope that Ayang can come back soon so that we can get together every day."

Qian Xiumin and Gu Yao drank a lot of wine that day, talking about their past and their dreams for the future.

Gu Yao also knew from Qian Xiumin that she really wanted to maintain the friendship among the four of them.

Except for Gu Yao and the other two, the other two were all over the world, so Qian Xiumin felt depressed.

She thought that if the four of them were together, they could definitely help each other, and now with the help of Gu Yao, she had come to the Ministry of Revenue and even had a good official position.

This gave her greater ambitions. After all, she had studied for the imperial examination in order to bring honor to her family, to make her family an official family, or even to become a noble family.

Unfortunately, for people like them who have no background, it is not easy to become a noble family.

You have no connections, no in-laws or even anyone willing to help you.

Qian Xiumin had suffered a lot to climb to her current position, so she actually didn't understand why Huang Xiaoyan and the others wanted to be transferred out.

No matter how good it is to be sent out, you will not have the face of being a Beijing official. Even if you work hard in Beijing, your connections are all in Beijing. In this way, you will climb faster and get more recognition from people.

Gu Yao listened to her chattering and looked at her blushing face, feeling a little complicated.

Her sister Qian actually had so many things in her mind, and she couldn't even hide her ambitions.

Why is this happening? Is it because of the big melting pot of officialdom that things have changed?

Thinking about her past interactions with Qian Xiumin, it seemed as if this elder sister had never changed, she just appeared very gentle because she had no power before.

Once you have power, things will be different, and you won’t know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

It’s right for her to want to move up the ladder. After all, everyone has different ideals.

But she would not approve of taking advantage of others and doing something that hurts them.

She has a family behind her, so she doesn't want to hurt her family by getting involved in this matter.

At night, Gu Yao sent Qian Xiumin back home. Her husband and family were in the capital.

Her house is bigger than Gu Yao's and looks more elegant and refined.

After sending her back, Gu Yao sat in the carriage and closed her eyes thinking about everything that happened today.

She suddenly felt that there seemed to be some changes, but she didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"Madam, madam, we are home and it's time to get off the carriage."

Gu Xiaoshu felt confused. What was wrong with his wife today? Why was she a little absent-minded? She had been like this since she sent Lord Huang away.

Gu Yao quickly came back to her senses after hearing Gu Xiaogu's call and said with a smile, "Then let's go in, you go back and rest early."

After Gu Yao returned, she rested alone in the room. She didn't want to see anyone today. After all, she still wanted to think about what to do in the future.

Should we continue like this, or should we be more cautious and see what Qian Xiumin is planning?

If her plan was not in line with her wishes, she would definitely distance herself from him. Friends are friends, but she couldn't hurt her family for the sake of friends.

But she felt a little uncomfortable, after all, they had been friends for so many years.

She hoped Qian Xiumin could come to her senses and not make another wrong step, otherwise she would not be able to afford the consequences in the future.

In fact, people will definitely change when they become complicated, not to mention that the current situation is full of confusion, but magnificent, so she is not surprised that Qian Xiuming can't keep his nature sometimes.

That night, Gu Yao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, not knowing how to face it.

They naturally knew that Gu Yao was resting alone, and were a little confused. They even asked Gu Xiaoshu for a while.

Gu Xiaoshu certainly couldn't say anything about these things. She just said that she was too tired and that there were too many things to do in the court, so she wanted to rest alone.

Seeing Lin Wulang and the others believing and leaving, Gu Xiaoshu wiped the sweat off his forehead and hoped that his wife would be able to return to normal tomorrow, otherwise what happened today would continue to happen.

Gu Yao has not been to the backyard these days and has been staying in her own room.

And she also worked hard in the Ministry of Industry. Although she didn't stand out, everyone knew that Gu Yao was talented.

Sometimes, she could even bring her grandson to the palace to play chess with the emperor.

Gu Yao was still quite nervous about meeting the emperor. After all, he was the emperor's most respected leader.

However, as I saw him more, I realized that this emperor had a more straightforward personality, but was also quite sinister.

Because they hold military power, many ministers are afraid of the emperor.

Why did the emperor promote them all at the same time? Even though the ministers objected, there was nothing they could do, because after all, this was an emperor who was self-centered.

Although Gu Yao is now of the sixth rank, she is appreciated by many emperors.

In addition, she has made great contributions, so she is very comfortable in the Ministry of Industry. Many people like her because Gu Yao is very easy-going.

And also because he received rewards from the emperor every now and then, her family was also very popular in the capital and received many invitations.

Gu Yao carefully observed the court and found that Qian Xiumin did make a lot of small moves, but most of them were for climbing up.

She was promoted half a level. I don't think half a level is too little. You have to know that nowadays there is only one position for each person. If you want to get promoted, I have to pull someone down.

I don't know whose path Qian Xiumin has taken. But the more I watch, the more I sigh. It seems that her former sister has indeed changed a lot.

Since she saw things more and more clearly, she didn't know how to get along with Qian Xiuming anymore.

She suddenly felt that her acting skills were pretty good. She acted as if nothing had happened in front of Qian Qiuming, and she was still the same Sister Qian as before.

But sometimes he would quietly distance himself from Qian Xiuming.

Although she would stay away from Qian Xiumin, she would definitely help her if she got into trouble, of course without harming her family.

He is a selfish person who always puts himself and his family first, so he will never be able to achieve the kind of friendship that good friends have.

But you are not alone in this world. There are so many judgments behind you. Is he going to abandon his family?

He just felt a little disappointed with Qian Xiumin. He thought it was good enough for them to get to this point. Sometimes people should not be too greedy, otherwise they will really be struck by lightning.

One day when Gu Yao attended a banquet, she discovered a secret of Qian Xiumin. She was actually having an affair with the second princess.

The Second Princess had considerable influence in the court. She wondered why she had never been able to invite Qian Xiumin out for dinner before. She must have been using some connections.

She knew that it was natural for people to climb up. After all, who wants to be a grandson forever, or be stepped on by others all the time?

She felt that Qian Xiumin was good enough, as he was young and promising and would be promoted quickly.

Moreover, she is highly valued by others, and now she has children and lives a much more comfortable life than most people.

I don't know why she suddenly wanted to do the work of following the dragon.

Gu Yao walked around in her study for a long time, thought for a while and said, "No, I must persuade her well. After all, she is my good friend. If she suddenly falls into a place of no return, I will feel very uneasy."

Although the merit of following the dragon was not bad, her child was still so young and he didn't believe that Qian Xiumin would let her child be harmed because of her.

The next day, after finishing her shift, Gu Yao went straight to the door to wait for Qian Xiumin, which surprised her.

"Sister Qian, do you have time? I'll treat you to a meal. I've already reserved a table at the restaurant, and I've also got your favorite drinks."

Qian Xiumin looked at Gu Yao's firm words and knew that if she didn't keep the appointment today, she would probably be very angry.

"Then I'll obey your command. I suddenly feel like drinking too. Let's have a drink together, two sisters."

Qian Xiumin made a decision for herself in her heart, and she didn't think she was wrong.

After all, ever since she hooked up with the second princess, her status has skyrocketed, and even her family life has improved a lot.

Besides, aren't they working so hard in scientific research just for glory and wealth?

If he was just an ordinary official in the court, how could he stand out and bring honor to his family?

In that case, she might as well take a shortcut and take a gamble. If her bet is right, her descendants will also enjoy wealth and glory.

He didn't think he could do anything wrong. After all, the second princess was very favored. Her father was a noble prince and was even favored by His Majesty, so she felt she could do nothing wrong.

Gu Yao didn't know what Qian Xiumin was thinking. After arriving at the restaurant, she sat down and poured Qian Xiumin a glass of wine.

"Sister Qian, it's been a long time since we last met. You're so busy every day."

Qian Xiumin took a sip and said with a smile: "Yes, you know that the Ministry of Revenue is very busy, so I don't have much time. I don't even go out to attend literary gatherings. I just want to share the worries of His Majesty."

Qian Xiumin felt a sinking feeling in her heart when she saw her happy expression. It seemed that her sister Qian had really given it her all.

"Sister Qian, do you really want to do this? You finally have such a future, and a good family. Don't you want to be an official in peace and stability?"

Although Gu Yao felt that what she said was a bit pretentious or a bit inconsiderate of others.

But she still didn't want Qian Xiumin to have a tragic ending.

She knew that it was not easy to follow the dragon since ancient times, and she didn't even have a good impression of the Second Princess.

The emperor has many daughters. If the second princess cannot become emperor, then Qian Xiumin will be finished.

Qian Xiumin knew what Gu Yao was going to say. He put down his teacup and sighed, "Ayao, do you think we can just live a plain life like this? I come from a poor family, so I've had enough of living a humble life. I just want everyone to look up at me. You can say I'm ambitious or vain, but I'm just that kind of person."

"I know. I am such a person too. I just don't want you to have a tragic ending. You know, that kind of thing is not easy to do. What's more, we don't have any background. What if we are used as scapegoats by others? Have you forgotten the previous corruption case? Many officials of the Hanlin Academy had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated. I don't want you to end up like that too."

"Don't worry, I won't. I'm very cautious. What's more, the Second Princess is the daughter of your Majesty and is even very favored by your Majesty. Don't you think she is the candidate for the next emperor? Maybe she will be named the Crown Princess soon."

"But this is just your idea. You should know that His Majesty has many daughters, and above them there is the eldest princess. Have you forgotten the eldest princess?"

Gu Yao directly stated the ranking of the emperor's daughters. The emperor had fifteen daughters and ten princes.
