Gu Yong is a famous figure in Wu Dong. At that time, during the Three Kingdoms period, Wu Dong's Sun Quan was also full of talented people, but in the end, not many people had a successful career, a good start and a good ending like Gu Yong. So Gu Yong is very lucky, but he is so lucky not only because of his talent, but also because of his unique personality charm. Gu Yong's family was a noble family from the beginning. At the age of 20, he became a county magistrate in Hefei, and later became a local official in several places, all of which made excellent achievements.
At the beginning, Sun Quan served as the satrap of Huiji, but he hasn't arrived yet, so let Gu Yong manage it for him. Gu Yong also managed very well, so he slowly entered the power center of Sun Quan. Later, after the death of the Prime Minister, Sun Quan promoted Gu Yong as Prime Minister. Gu Yong is a very low-key person. Even when he became prime minister, he didn't tell his family. Because he is a very quiet person, the so-called quiet life can give him insight into the world. Every time Sun Quan encounters a problem, he will consult Gu Yong.
He is generous to outsiders, but strict with his family. He was prime minister in Dongwu for 19 years. It is because of his assistance that Dongwu developed in an all-round way and won the reputation of being a famous Dongwu. Later, at the age of 76, he was seriously ill and died soon. After his death, even Sun Quan personally went to mourn in plain clothes and gave him a nickname.
