The Reborn Widow's Husband Search

Born in the royal family, Gu Xingwen was the eldest son of the emperor. Since his birth, everyone had placed high hopes on him. All civil and military officials in the court thought that this was the next monarch they would serve in the future.

Gu Xingwen also thought so.

Therefore, from a very young age, he began to accept the constraints of various rules.At the age of two, when he could not even walk stably in an ordinary house, he had to perform all prostration rituals in a standardized way; at the age of three, he watched by his mother's side how she punished the slaves who made mistakes; at the age of five, he had already started to follow The master studies the art of the emperor...

All of this is so that he can sit on that high chair in the future.

When the second prince was born, Gu Xingwen was already three years old. He was very happy when he heard the servant girl beside him that he had a younger brother.As the emperor's only son, everything is incomparable, but there is a strange feeling of sympathy in the little child's heart, "Ah, someone will accompany me to learn the rules!"

The still naive first prince ran to the queen mother's palace on short legs and asked the queen mother to show him his little brother.The young prince didn't know why his mother, who had never rejected him, would be furious, "Remember, you are the eldest son, so what if that bitch is favored again? It's just a concubine, and the son born is just a bastard! Are you It's different, you are a cloud in the sky, and he is just mud on the ground!"

It was the first time for the little prince to see his gentle and dignified mother showing a ferocious face, and he had nightmares for several nights in a row.On the grounds that the eldest son of the emperor was hit by dirt, the queen invited the emperor, saying that the emperor would protect his son with dragon energy.

At that time, the emperor was still clear that although he didn't particularly like his queen, he was good to his first son. He really complied with the queen's request and stayed in the queen's bedroom for several nights.

Thus, the queen discovered the extra usefulness of her son, and from then on, Gu Xingwen became the sharp blade for the queen to attack the noble concubine and consolidate the emperor's favor.This was the case until Gu Xingwen was seven years old and the fourth prince was born.

As the years in office grew, the emperor gradually became dizzy, and his love for beauties was even stronger than in the past.The older imperial concubine didn't get any benefits, but she had a strong belly and gave birth to a fourth prince for the emperor.

The imperial concubine who had been taught a lesson by the empress also understood the magical effect of using her son to seduce the emperor, especially when the son was still in his infancy, he was smart and knew how to please the emperor. Pet.

It's not that the empress thought of repeating the old trick and using her son to win over the emperor, but the seven-year-old Gu Xingwen, who was taught by his masters to advance and retreat, was like a little old man, and he no longer knew how to hug his father's leg and act like a baby.

A stern-faced little old man and a grinning meat dumpling, it is self-evident who the emperor will favor.

That time, Gu Xingwen was punished by his mother for the first time. He knelt all night in her bedroom, his calf was red and swollen.

Gu Xingwen is not without grievances, he doesn't understand why the father likes the new younger brother and why the mother punishes him, but the masters taught him to suppress the grievance in his heart, the son does not speak of the mother's fault, the mother does everything right!

Gu Xingwen didn't know that this was just the beginning, and he was the one who suffered every time the empress and concubine failed in the fight.The ever-increasing schoolwork is nothing more than punishment, kneeling and copying books are often imposed on the prince under the age of ten.

The mother's mother chanting scriptures reminded him that he wanted to be an emperor like his father, and these sufferings must be experienced. Apart from reading and practicing martial arts every day, he was on the way to study or learn martial arts.

That day, because he was sleepy, he took an extra cup of tea during his lunch break. Seeing that he was about to miss the afternoon class, the maid serving beside him suggested that he take a small road to the martial arts field.

Gu Xingwen, who was a little afraid of being punished by his mother, agreed after a little hesitation.That was the first time he walked the path, and it was also the first time he saw his second and fourth brothers.

A four or five-year-old doll held a booklet and read "Zhao Qian Sun Li..." to the little doll in the cradle.He had memorized the simplest surnames under the supervision of his mother when he was three years old, but the little doll still stumbled and jumped over unfamiliar surnames.If the masters are here, they will definitely say: "Dead wood cannot be carved!"

However, the baby lying in the cradle was very happy to hear it, babbling and responding inexplicably from time to time, and when his brother saw him, he would show a toothless smile to his brother.

"This is too difficult, my brother can't learn it now." The boy threw away the book in his hand, "Brother will read you nursery rhymes!"

The eldest prince was stunned.Since he was a child, his masters have told him that the books recorded are all the teachings of the saints, and he should treat every book with the same respect as a saint, not to mention throwing it away at will, and he will be punished for copying even if he accidentally tears a corner.

Gu Xingwen did not resent Gu Xingwen for being so willful and willful, but instead made him envious.In other words, what the eldest son envied was not that the little doll could throw away books at will, but that the two children could bask in the sun leisurely in the afternoon, and they could throw them aside if they didn't like reading.

Gu Xingwen couldn't help but raised his foot and was about to walk over, but was pulled back by the maid beside him, "Your Highness, if you don't leave quickly, you will miss the time for class!"

The eldest son of the emperor cast a reluctant glance at his younger brothers and then left surrounded by maidservants.The younger brothers are not as hideous as the queen mother said, but they are white and tender and very cute.

From that day on, more than half of the first prince's limited rest time was given to his two younger brothers.Perhaps it is the nature of blood relationship. Although the two mothers are fighting to the death, the three brothers are easy to get close. From the very beginning of watching from a distance to chatting and then teaching to read, it only takes a few days for the children to get close.

The fourth prince, Gu Xingge, is still ignorant, he smiles at everyone, and doesn't reject the eldest brother who suddenly appeared at all.The second prince, Gu Xingji, was a little older, and he was expressionless and indifferent to everyone, but he was very accepting of his eldest brother, especially after his eldest brother started to teach him to read and write.

During that time, the eldest prince Gu Xingwen was like a happy bird, listening to even the most boring teacher's books with relish, he had to listen carefully, and when he understood, he would tell his younger brothers.Gu Xingwen, the elder brother, was satisfied for a while when he thought of the little eyes that his younger brothers admired.

As the days went by, Gu Xingwen was a little dissatisfied. He was full of homework every day, and his mother often gave him questions to occupy his rest time. He had less and less time to see his younger brother.The naive child thought that if the younger brothers also entered the school, they would study and study together, and they would spend a lot of time together.

The eldest prince thought so, and did so, taking advantage of an emperor's banquet, he proposed to his father the matter of letting his second brother study together.The emperor was stunned for a moment before he remembered who his second son was. Gu Xingji was really in the same rank, and he didn't know how to act coquettishly to be cute. The emperor was not enough to visit the younger son in the imperial concubine's bedroom, so the second son was ignored.

The servants around the emperor quickly came to the emperor's ear to remind him. After the servant reminded the emperor, he realized that the second son was more than four years old and had passed the age of enlightenment. Out of guilt for his son, the emperor readily agreed to the request of the elder son. Also praised a few words.

The winking concubines quickly flattered, one said, "The eldest prince knows how to love brothers at such a young age, and it was taught by the empress." The other said, "The eldest prince is kind and loving, and has the image of a wise king." Another said, "The eldest prince has a heart of love." To be lenient, to treat brothers with love, to be able to love the people like children in the future, is indeed the blessing of the people of the Great Wu Dynasty."

The emperor was very happy when he heard that, and smiled at the queen in a rare way, "Zitong is a virtuous man, and has raised a good son for me!"

After hearing these words, the empress smiled dignifiedly, "Wen'er is the elder brother, and it is his responsibility to take care of the younger brother. If the younger brother can't take care of him well, how can he be a great leader in the future. The concubine is just teaching him what to do. That's all."

The emperor was even more happy when he heard that the empress did not take credit for it, and rewarded Gu Xingwen with many good things.The queen mother and son stole the limelight throughout the banquet.Although his father's praise made Gu Xingwen happy, he was not indifferent to the compliments from all the concubines, but he was happy again when he thought that his younger brother could study with him in the future.

Because of this episode, the palace banquet that day was much more lively than usual, and it ended very late.

Gu Xingwen followed the queen back to the bedroom and closed the door. The smile on the queen's face immediately disappeared, and she sternly shouted: "Kneel down!"

Gu Xingwen was puzzled, but his filial piety prevented him from disobeying his mother's order, so he lifted up his clothes and knelt in front of the queen.

"Say, who told you to ask for grace for that little bastard? Have you discussed it with me, who gave you the courage!" The queen threw the teacup on the table in front of the eldest prince, and the flying fragments scratched Gu Xingwen's neck, he did not dare to hide.

"Empress mother, the younger brothers are not ugly. I like my younger brothers, and today my father even praised my son..." "Crack!" The eldest prince's words were interrupted by crisp applause.

"Shut up! You are so old, do you have any brains? His mother and concubine are not in a hurry, but you are still in a hurry to do it for you. Do you think those bitches today are really praising you? They don't know how to laugh at you behind your back What a fool! The fourth child is already favored by the emperor. If the second child is good at studying, their slut mother will not know how to be arrogant. At that time, even if I am the queen, I will not be able to control her! Although you are the emperor’s son-in-law The eldest son, but you are not yet the prince! You cultivated your own enemies like this, did your head get eaten by a dog!" The queen was really angry, so angry that she abandoned the so-called everyone's demeanor, and spoke indiscriminately.

The eldest prince still has the heart to defend himself, but the nanny who was serving the queen spoke first, "Queen empress, calm down, your highness is still young, it's normal for you to not understand, just teach yourself slowly, your highness, quickly apologize to your empress, so that you don't want to be born again I'm angry." Nanny is the nanny of the empress, she is highly relied on by the empress, and her position is detached, although she said these words were a bit over the top, she was not blamed.

Gu Xingwen is not stupid, he can see that his mother is very angry, saying more words will only make her more angry, and a punishment will be unavoidable at that time, so he will no longer defend himself now, but obediently kowtows, "I know I was wrong , the queen mother calms down."

The deal is done, and there is nothing the queen can do if she gets angry again. Instead, the mother said, "The eldest prince is young and just wants to find a playmate. The queen might as well find a companion for His Highness to read."

In this way, Zhao Yuanji became the companion of the eldest prince.At that time, the queen only felt that her son's heart was no longer biased towards the little bastards, but she didn't know that her son's throne would be ruined by this companion!
