The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

At this time, the Weiyang Palace was very lively.

In addition to Mingjin and Gu Mingheng, and the host Empress Yuan, Emperor Zhenguang, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and the Fifth Prince are also here today.

Even the eldest grandson of the Emperor from the Eastern Palace was in the Weiyang Palace today.

Today is a family dinner.

At this time, Ming Jin was accompanying Queen Yuan and the Crown Princess, teasing the young and ignorant Emperor's eldest grandson.

Gu Mingheng accompanied Emperor Zhenguang and others to talk outside.

Emperor Zhenguang has been unable to eat or sleep well recently because of the Mingyue Tower incident. He was so anxious that he got several blisters in his mouth and his complexion looked very bad.

When he saw Gu Mingheng today and saw that he was fine, his mood finally brightened up a little.

How can there be any overnight hatred between brothers?

What's more, he watched Gu Mingheng grow up. They are not only brothers but also half sons. Naturally, the relationship between them is incomparable to ordinary people.

Just say a few bad words to him and the matter will be over.

"It's just right that you're here today and your injury has healed. You can go to the Dali Temple later and work with them to thoroughly investigate the matter of Mingyue Tower."

This job was originally done by Gu Changze.

But there were too many rumors outside, and Emperor Zhenguang had no choice but to let him step down from his position as the leader.

He was also upset.

They are obviously brothers, but the eldest and the third have been at odds since they were young. Now people outside are also following the crowd and spreading rumors, and even the common people are starting to have opinions about their royal family.

They all felt that the collapse of Mingyue Tower was closely related to the eldest and third brothers.

Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.

This has been true since ancient times.

Although he knew that the boss would never do such a thing, he couldn't stand the fact that so many people were talking about it.

He had high hopes for the eldest brother since he was young, and he was usually more critical of him. At this moment, he couldn't help but say to him, "If you had dealt with your third brother in the past, why would there be so many discussions outside? You are the crown prince, and you should set an example. But now you are in trouble!"

"Look at what's happened now!"

The more he talked, the angrier he became.

Gu Changze lowered his eyes and stood up, looking submissive: "It is my son who failed to set a good example."

He didn't excuse himself at all.

"What does this have to do with my prince?" Gu Changye was very dissatisfied with this, and took over the conversation after Gu Changze with an unconvinced look on his face.

"Those people are clearly trying to confuse the public and drag the Crown Prince into this. Father doesn't speak up for the Crown Prince, but instead scolds him! Son, son..." He turned his head and said stubbornly, "My son refuses to accept this!"

Emperor Zhenguang's anger subsided a little when he saw that his eldest son was relatively obedient.

Hearing his youngest son speak like this, his anger rose again. He slammed the table and yelled at Gu Changye, "You bastard!"

"You still don't accept it!"

"If you brothers were more united and obedient, I wouldn't have to worry about you so much!"

He was so angry that his face turned red and he started coughing.

Gu Mingheng wanted to speak, but seeing Emperor Zhenguang like this, he could only step forward and pat the man on the back.

While comforting him, he said, "Don't be angry, brother."

While saying to Gu Changye: "Xiao Wu, apologize to your father."

On the other side, Gu Changze also pulled Gu Changye and asked him to apologize in a low voice.

Gu Changye was just a little bit unconvinced in words, he didn't really want to anger his father. But when he was reminded of this by his uncle and brother the Crown Prince, and seeing his father's face turning red from coughing, he panicked a little and hurriedly apologized to Emperor Zhenguang.

"Father, I was wrong, please don't be angry."

Emperor Zhenguang felt annoyed just by looking at him.

He has several sons, but not one of them gives him peace of mind!

He drank a few sips of tea from Gu Mingheng's hand, and when the crying and coughing sound subsided a little, he looked at Gu Mingheng and said, "Yixian, you do this yourself. You are the only one I can trust now."

"Investigate thoroughly, give the people an explanation, and clear the name of the eldest and third brother."

In this regard.

Gu Changye and Gu Changze didn't react and just stood aside.

Gu Changye was more sensitive to these things than ever before. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his father giving this task to his uncle.

He even thought that if this matter was handed over to his uncle, it would be quickly investigated!

Since my uncle is so powerful, the prince’s grievances will surely be cleared up soon.

But Gu Changze was used to it.

He had also guessed that his father would hand this matter over to his uncle.

His expression was calm.

No surprises at all.

did not expect--

"Brother, I can't interfere in this matter."

Gu Changze was stunned, just like his father. Almost at the same time, both father and son looked at Gu Mingheng.

However, Gu Changze was not in a position to speak at this time. Although he was surprised, he kept his mouth shut, but he was surprised in his heart.

"why?"

Emperor Zhenguang did not have so many concerns. He frowned and asked Gu Mingheng.

Gu Mingheng explained to Emperor Zhenguang: "I am also a member of the royal family. There is a lot of discussion outside right now, and it would not be appropriate for me to get involved."

"Since this matter has been handed over to the Three Officials, I believe that they will be able to give my brother and the people a satisfactory answer."

"Don't worry, brother."

When Emperor Zhenguang heard him say this, he frowned but did not insist.

"That's fine."

"You have just recovered from your injuries, so it is indeed not suitable for you to work hard."

Emperor Zhenguang never mentioned the matter again.

Gu Changze secretly glanced at his uncle.

This was different from what he had originally thought.

Based on his understanding of his uncle, he would never refuse these things. He always puts the people and the truth first... Why did his uncle refuse this time?

Gu Changze's mind suddenly emerged the image of his uncle leading his future aunt in.

Is it because of his young aunt?

Gu Changze didn't know.

But he didn't dwell on it.

Whether his uncle is involved in this matter or not, the result will be the same for him, but if his uncle is involved in this matter, he will have to be more careful.

To avoid being found out by his uncle.

This is good. Since his uncle wants to stay away from the political affairs, he hopes he can stay away from them more completely.

Then they will always be a good uncle and nephew.

He will respect him all his life.

Gu Changze lowered his eyes little by little.

After all, today was a family dinner, so Emperor Zhenguang did not mention these important government matters any more. After Empress Yuan sent Guan Qing out and said to him, "Your Majesty, you may have your meal," Emperor Zhenguang did not say much and let Gu Mingheng support him as he walked inside.

Gu Changye had been starving for a long time. When he heard this, he was very excited: "Finally, I can eat."

He followed Gu Changze, followed behind his father and uncle, and walked inside happily.

Emperor Zhenguang looked at him like this and shook his head again: "I don't know who he looks like."

Gu Mingheng smiled.

"Xiaowu, this is good."

Emperor Zhenguang was actually quite satisfied in his heart. Although his youngest son had no particular abilities, he had the best relationship with his eldest son. When his eldest son ascended the throne in the future, he would have a brother he could trust.

Just like him and Yixian.

He looked away.

Thinking of something, he continued to talk to Gu Mingheng beside him: "Now that your marriage is settled, you should find a job in the court and don't return to the north."

He still wanted to keep his brother.

Gu Changye was very excited when he heard this: "Then can my uncle stay in the capital forever in the future?"

When Gu Changze heard this, he paused, but soon he also laughed: "Uncle has worked hard for so many years, it's time for him to have a good rest."

As they were talking, they were almost reaching the inner hall.

Mingjin naturally heard these words as well.

She was standing beside Queen Yuan. When she heard these words, she pursed her red lips slightly, but did not say anything at this time.

She just lowered her head, looking docile.

Suddenly, she felt a soft gaze falling on her as she came in.

She knew who owned that gaze.

She didn't look up, but her originally tense mood and body became a little relaxed.

"Don't worry about me, my royal brother. Yanyan and I have discussed it. After we get married, I want to take her out for a walk."

"It would be inconvenient to have an errand on my side. My Royal Highness, just treat me as an imperial envoy and inspect everywhere for my Royal Highness."

When Gu Changze heard this, his heart suddenly relaxed and his expression became gentle again.

Although Emperor Zhenguang frowned, he thought about how hard his brother had worked for so many years, and it would not be good to let him really take on an assignment and be detained in the capital, so he didn't say anything, but patted his shoulder and said: "Well, it's up to you to decide."

The person who reacted the most to this was Gu Changye.

"what!"

"My little uncle is going to travel with my little aunt? Then I want to go too!"

"What are you going to do?" Queen Yuan scolded him, "You think you are still three years old and you still have to rely on your uncle to take you away."

"Don't even think about going anywhere. Get your mind right and settle down your marriage as soon as possible."

"Among the brothers, you are the only one who is still unengaged."

Gu Changye is only fifteen this year, one year younger than Ming Jin. He is at the age when he hates getting married and discussing marriages. He gets a headache when he hears his elders talk about this.

"No, I'm only a few years old, I don't want to get married!" He refused without even thinking.

After saying that, he ran directly to Gu Mingheng. Before Queen Yuan could speak, he shouted, "Uncle, save me!"

Ming Jin was watching from the side and couldn't help but want to laugh.

The personality of the fifth prince is really unlike that of a royal family member. Perhaps it is because he has lived a carefree life since he was a child and is surrounded by love, and he is not required to do anything. There is no haze on him, and he is as sunny and cheerful as the clear summer sky.

She couldn't help but think of what the Queen had said to her before.

"In fact, when Yixian was little, he was just like Xiaowu, but Xiaowu wasn't as noisy and annoying."

Mingjin actually still has some memories from his childhood.

I do remember a little bit about what Gu Mingheng looked like when he was a teenager.

At that time, Gu Mingheng was really full of vigor and vitality. He wore a golden crown on his hair, wore white clothes and rode a horse. Wherever he went, there were countless people surrounding him.

There is always a smile in his eyes, more energetic than the sun in the sky.

When talking to her, the ending tone is always teasing, with a bit of nonchalant teasing, but it is very attractive.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have always liked to follow Gu Mingheng when she was a child.

Sometimes I would blush when I saw Gu Mingheng.

Back then, some people used the phrase "riding a horse and leaning on the sloping bridge, with red sleeves waving on the building" to describe the young Gu Mingheng. At that time, Gu Mingheng was the person that countless people wanted to marry.

"what happened?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came to her ears. Ming Jin turned around and saw Gu Mingheng had walked to her side at some point and was looking at her.
