The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Gu Yuxuan's face was very serious, but there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"I really can't go through that dog hole with you. I still have to practice calligraphy, and my father will check it."

Gu Huatang tilted his head and asked innocently.

"Brother, the father you are talking about is our father, right?"

Gu Yuxuan nodded and corrected him seriously: "Yes, you should call me Royal Brother, not Brother."

Gu Huatang pouted, somewhat confused.

Daddy is daddy, mother is mother, brother is brother, why should they be called differently?

But she didn't care about such a small matter, but pulled Gu Yuxuan's sleeve very persistently.

"Brother, just play with me for a while. Why don't we go through the dog hole and dig out the bird's nest?"

Gu Yuxuan had already sat down to practice calligraphy, and he didn't even raise his head when he heard this.

"Don't go."

"Shall we go pick some flowers?"

"Don't go."

"Catch butterflies?"

"Don't go."

Gu Huatang was completely angry.

"You don't go here or there, you don't play with me, you are not my brother! Woohoo!!"

Gu Huatang actually sat down on the ground and started crying at the top of his lungs.

Gu Yuxuan was shocked and quickly stood up and stepped back three steps.

"You, why are you crying? I didn't bully you."

Gu Huatang paused for a moment, pursed his lips, and started crying again.

Gu Yuxuan: "..."

When Shen Qingyan received the news, Jiang Mufan had just left.

She was anxious, wondering if the two little kids had accidentally had a conflict when they met for the first time?

When she arrived, several palace maids and maids were trying to coax Gu Huatang, while Gu Yuxuan was standing aside, at a loss.

Shen Qingyan's heart tightened, and the moment she saw Gu Yuxuan, her nose instantly felt sore.

She left her first child when he was only a few months old, so she couldn't be considered a good mother.

"Yuxuan."

Gu Yuxuan stared at Shen Qingyan in a daze. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and he quickly bowed respectfully.

"My sons and ministers see their mother and queen."

Li Xing is very well-behaved. Although he is just a child less than four years old, he acts like a little adult.

Shen Qingyan felt a sudden pain in her heart, so intense that it made her breathing unstable.

How did he survive those three years without his mother's care?

Shen Qingyan squatted down, looked Gu Yuxuan in the eye, and barely suppressed the tears that were about to flow.

"Yuxuan, it's my fault for leaving you for three years. I promise I will never leave you again."

Seeing Shen Qingyan's tears about to burst out, Gu Yuxuan also wanted to cry for some reason.

He knew that the person in front of him was his mother, because his father's room was full of her portraits.

And when he did very well in his studies, his father would tell him stories about his mother. He loved listening to them and also wanted to meet his mother.

Now that he has finally seen it, he is no longer a child without a mother. No palace maids or eunuchs will dare to talk about him anymore, right?

Just when the mother and son were being sentimental, Gu Huatang's fierce voice sounded from behind them.

"Mother, brother, have you forgotten my existence?"

Shen Qingyan then remembered that there was a little ancestor making trouble nearby.

She went forward and wanted to pick up Gu Huatang, but was stunned when she got closer and took a look.

"Gu Huatang!"

As soon as Gu Huatang heard his full name, he knew something was wrong.

So he immediately ran behind Gu Yuxuan and asked for help.

"Brother, save me!"

Gu Yuxuan was a little confused. Weren't you crying just now? How come...

Shen Qingyan saw his confusion and said bluntly: "Tangtang, if you keep pretending to cry like this, I will hit your palm. Also, what's wrong with the new clothes you just changed into today?"

It's all ink.

This was what Gu Huatang had applied when she was pestering Gu Yuxuan to play with her.

Gu Yuxuan looked at Gu Huatang in surprise and found that there was not a single trace of tears on her face.

Gu Huatang stuck out his tongue and blinked mischievously.

"Mom, don't be angry, I know I was wrong, I just like you and want to play with you, right, brother?"

Gu Huatang shook Gu Yuxuan's arm and looked at him pitifully, trying to get him to speak for her.

Gu Yuxuan looked at this sister whom he had only met for less than a day, without any temper at all, and turned to Shen Qingyan.

"Don't be angry, mother. My sister is just a little naughty. She will change."

Shen Qingyan was a little surprised.

She thought that the brother and sister would be a little uncomfortable meeting each other for the first time, but she didn't expect Gu Yuxuan to be so protective of his sister Gu Huatang.

For a moment, Shen Qingyan really didn't know what to do.

Why are my own sons and daughters different from others?

Other people's sons are naughty and their daughters are gentle, but it seems like the opposite is true for my own.

Gu Huatang didn't care about anything else. When he heard Gu Yuxuan speaking for him, he was extremely happy.

"Brother, you are so nice. Can you play with me now?"

Gu Yuxuan: "..."

I was already touched by my sister's cute appearance, but then I found that her mind seemed to be filled with playing.

Shen Qingyan was extremely surprised when she saw the words on the table.

"Yuxuan, did you write all of this?"

Gu Yuxuan nodded, still a little embarrassed.

"I don't write well, please don't blame me, mother."

Shen Qingyan was even more surprised, "You call this bad writing?"

Each of those words was written beautifully and neatly, totally unlike something a child of his age could write!

And I wrote so much.

Gu Yuxuan was a little confused, but his father said that what he wrote was not up to standard at all and he had to rewrite it almost every time.

Shen Qingyan didn't care about anything else and immediately said, "Come here, take away all these pens, ink, paper and inkstone."

"Yuxuan, you have written very well and have written so much. You can't write anymore. You need to rest. Now you can go and play with Tangtang without worry. I will tell your father."

Gu Yuxuan still couldn't believe it, but Gu Huatang was so excited that he pulled him and ran.

"Great! Brother, let's go play over there!"

Looking at the two little figures holding hands and playing together, Shen Qingyan smiled and a big stone in her heart fell to the ground.

During these three years, hadn't she missed Gu Yuxuan? Now, seeing him so well-behaved, without any of the liveliness and innocence that children of the same age should have, she felt distressed.

What Shen Qingyan didn't know was that there was a pair of eyes that had been secretly observing her since Jiang Mufan came to Zhaohua Palace.

*

After Concubine Yun returned to her bedroom, her heartbeat had not yet slowed down and she was extremely excited.

Because she had a bold guess in her mind.

After Shen Qingyan left the palace, she did not give up her secret investigation of Shen Qingyan. Her efforts paid off, and she found some suspicious drug residues in the soil of a small garden in the palace.
