After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

The turmoil of King Xie Gu Yan has not subsided, and King Duan Gu Shen suddenly fell ill again.

People in the palace reported that Duan Wang Gushen had met his prince's junior teacher Cui Chong that night, and slept alone in the small study all night.

In the early morning of the next day, it was as if she had lost her mind, crying and shouting and smashing her own legs, saying that she was murdered by others.

The King and Concubine Shu drove out of the palace together to Prince Duan's mansion. Gu Shen's eyes were lost on the sick bed, and even the King refused to agree to his yelling.

The imperial doctor in the palace and the doctor in the mansion took the pulse together, and the results were very consistent.

Duan Wang was in normal condition except for being a little anxious, Shen Ke's legs had been ill for a long time, and he couldn't walk for a long time.

I don't know where he started his theory of being murdered.

When everyone was puzzled, Princess Duan wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "Only Mr. Cui came here last night. I don't know what Mr. Cui said to His Highness or what he saw. His Highness wakes up in the morning. This is it."

Gu Shen, who was leaning on the couch without a word, suddenly started up, grabbed the arm of the king next to him, shook his head repeatedly, and said, "No, father, it's not Cui Shaoshi...not him..."

The king was taken aback by Gu Shen's abnormal behavior, but he became more and more suspicious of Cui Chong in his heart.

In front of Gu Shen, he comforted Gu Shen a few words, so that he could cultivate himself.He left two more imperial physicians in the palace, and then went back to the palace with Concubine Shu with a little peace of mind.

After the king and his party left the palace, Princess Gao sat beside King Duan's couch, raising her hand to wipe the sweat off her face with Gu Shen.Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Gu Shen stopped him in disgust: "You, why did you say that kind of thing to the father? You know that it has nothing to do with him!"

"What the concubine said is the truth. It is true that Lord Cui was the only one talking to His Highness last night. How does the concubine know who this matter is related to and who has nothing to do with it?" Gao retracted her hand, stood up and stood beside Gu Shen : "Your Highness, you have wronged my concubine."

"You...you did it on purpose...do you know that you will kill him!" Gu Shen gritted his teeth and pointed at Gao Shi. Choked to death.

"So what if the concubine did it on purpose? Your Highness, you haven't looked at the concubine since you got married. If you really feel that you can't tolerate the concubine, you can simply tell your majesty that you don't like the concubine. But You are also reluctant to part with the status of the concubine's mother's family in the court." Gao Shi stood upright in front of Gu Shen and smoothed his meticulously combed hair: "Since you are reluctant to part with the concubine, you must Make a show for outsiders to see. They are also princesses. What kind of life is Princess Ning? !"

"Even so, the person you should hate is this king! What does it have to do with Tan Qing!" Gu Shen reluctantly lifted off the quilt on his body, and beat the wooden side of the bed heavily with his hands.

"Tan Qing, I can hear how close you are. You and that Lord Cui are secretly doing things in the small study of the palace, do you think the concubine doesn't know about it? The concubine has not said this in the past. Your Majesty and Concubine Shu have confessed in front of you, and you are already giving Your Highness a good face! If the concubine really wants his life, she should tell His Majesty how Master Cui hooked you to take off your clothes, and then rolled into a bed with you go!"

"Get out! Get out of here!" Gu Shen snarled, picked up the pillow at hand, and threw it at Gao Shi, causing him to fall to the ground because of too much strength.

Gao Shi gave him a cold look, and walked away without any movement to help him up.

That night, the dubious King Gu Hong directly put Cui Chong, the inspector censor who had been supporting his third prince, into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

This investigation didn't matter, instead of finding out how the third prince fell ill, he found out the few personal and physical evidence about King Xie Gu Yan that Cui Chong was holding.

In the name of the princess's marriage, Gu Yan, the king of Xie, was greedy to collect property, and increased business taxes privately in order to show his merits. In addition, he is now accused of colluding with the household department to sell ice for profit, and jointly with the ministers' office to deceive the upper and lower.Once these things are put on top of the previous dynasty, King Xie Gu Yan will undoubtedly die.If he, the father of a king, insisted on protecting his son, he would definitely be called a foolish king through the ages.

As the father of the emperor, he knew that Gu Yan and Gu Shen, two children of similar age, had been at odds with each other in the previous court.In the past few years, the two people have been fighting openly and secretly, all in order to win a few compliments in front of themselves and gain a firm foothold in the previous court.

Gu Shen was frail since he was a child, his legs were disabled, and a person with incomplete six sense organs would not be able to succeed to the throne.Unless he is the only son left under the king's knee.

He didn't dare to imagine, did he, the third prince who seemed a bit submissive on weekdays, really have the intention to get rid of all his brothers?

The more the king thought about it, the more afraid he became, so he ordered Cui Chong to be severely punished.

In fact, no matter whether that Cui Chong confesses or not, he will never reuse Gu Shen from now on.The strict trial of Cui Chong was just to give Gu Shen a wake-up call, to let him know that he, as a father, did not favor any of them, and that once he had the intention of killing his siblings, there would be a dead end.

As for King Xie Gu Yan, this child grew up under the upbringing of Han Ming and the Han family.He was only 17 years old when he collected property in the name of the princess's wedding, how could a child who had only been in court for less than a year know this.The only one who can condone or even encourage him to do such a thing is Han Ming, the prime minister he single-handedly supported. He can forgive Gu Yan for his crime today, but Han Ming is definitely not allowed to stay anymore.

So the king issued a decree in the name of benevolence to send all the cheated children back to their hometowns, and allowed them to enter Enke again after three years.In the previous dynasty, King Xie Gu Yan suspended his post in the palace to think about his mistakes, and he was not allowed to go out unless he was ordered by the emperor.

Cui Chong endured nine days and nine nights in the imperial prison, almost strangled to death by the pincers, but he didn't speak a word.In addition, Gu Shen pleaded bitterly in front of him, saying that he was just suffering from a nightmare that day, and he was not poisoned by anyone, nor was he plotted against by anyone.Then the king gave up, dismissed Cui Chong from his official position and sent him back to the mansion to recuperate.And Duan Wang Gushen was named Prince Duan, and Zijin Zhaiyi was rewarded to make up for his lack of succession in this life.

Since dealing with the matters of the third and fourth children, King Gu Hong hardly ever had a good night's sleep, often dreaming and sweating, and mentally lethargic.Only after listening to Mr. Nanxi playing the zither, can he barely fall asleep.

The king sleeps restlessly, and his temper is more irritable than before. Almost every day when he goes to court, one or two courtiers will get into trouble because of inappropriate words.

Gradually, those old fritters who were used to the officialdom began to taste the taste. Most of the courtiers who have been dealt with by the king in the past few days are the direct descendants of the loyal and diligent minister Han Ming.

Although King Xun and Prince Gu Yan are still alive, he has already suspended his idle duties in the previous dynasty, and he has been banned from the palace to think about his mistakes, so he cannot be involved in the court situation.Concubine Han Gui is still in charge of palace affairs in the harem, but half of the things have to be discussed with Concubine Li and Concubine Shu.

Everyone understood that Han Ming, the prime minister who had been in the court for nearly 20 years, was finally going to die.

In September of the same year, when the major events related to the two princes in the previous dynasty gradually faded away.Gu Xiu, the king of war, returned from the border with twelve heads of Turkic tribal leaders.

Armed with armor, shields, crossbows, and chariots modified by Gu Xiu and Han Mochu.Guochao's army penetrated into the Turkic territory like a sharp sword piercing the chest, breaking through the defense lines of the Turkic barbarians.Taking advantage of the continuous torrential rain to launch a general attack, directly beheading all the leaders of the twelve divisions of the coalition army, it can be regarded as avenging the border troubles for many years.

In this battle, Gu Xiu led troops to behead more than 1 people and captured nearly 5 people.It directly pushed the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom to the important border cities of the Raksha Kingdom.

Therefore, when Gu Xiu returned this time, he not only brought back the letter of surrender from the Turkic people, but also brought back a large number of gifts from Queen Rakshasa.

The king couldn't help being overjoyed, and immediately issued an order to reward the three armies.He also rewarded Gu Xiu with a golden crown and a battle armor.And he was allowed to praise officials in Beijing!OK, I will be congratulated by all the people.

After retreating from the court, Gu Xiu handed over the tiger talisman to the king in the side hall.After the handover was over, Gu Xiu suddenly lowered his voice, and asked the king, "Praise the official tour! What you want to do, can you let the sixth brother go for the son?"

"Huh? Why is that?"

"My son..." Gu Xiu's perennially upright face suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "My son, I'm so ashamed and flustered."

King Gu Hong was amused by Gu Xiu's words and laughed out loud. The king who had been depressed for more than half a year finally showed his face and smiled again.All those who followed and served around him breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's so embarrassing? This is an honor that no one else can ask for. Why do you push it away?"

"Father, my son just won a battle, and it's not a great achievement. Praise the official tour! Okay, my son always feels ashamed of receiving it." Gu Xiuxiu said: "Father, my son really can't stand it. "

"That's all, if you don't want to go, then don't go." King Gu Hong held back his father's reserve, suppressed a smile and said: "Then tell me, what do you want?"

"My son, I want to..." Gu Xiu glanced at the majestic battle armor, summoned up his courage and said, "I want to put on this new armor now, and go...to show Eldest Sister. ..”

When Gu Hong heard this, his heart softened like warm water melting ice.

Gu Xiu, 19 years old, is still a half-grown child.In the eyes of this child, no military honor, no royal power and wealth can compare to the affection of family members.In the eyes of this child, he does not seem to be a king, but a father who has expectations for him.

"Okay, you can put on this new armor now." Gu Hong patted Gu Xiu on the shoulder, but he didn't know if it was because Gu Xiu had grown taller again, or because he couldn't straighten his back because of his age. , he always felt that Gu Xiu was already taller than him: "When you go out of the palace, you should jog slowly."

"Yes, my son, thank you, Father."

Gu Xiu changed into a brand-new armor and left the palace from the side hall. The brand-new armor gave Gu Xiu, who was always handsome and handsome, a bit of awe-inspiring prestige.

"Cui Shang, what do you think of my son's birth?" Gu Hong pointed at Gu Xiu's back with a smile on his face.

"His Royal Highness Zhan Wang is a young dragon, horse and phoenix, just like His Majesty was back then." Cui Shang, the old eunuch, smiled and said with a whisk in his hand: "This old slave has served His Majesty for nearly 40 years, and His Highness Zhan Wang is indeed the most respectable His Majesty in this palace. "

"That's natural." Gu Hong held back what he wanted to say later, and Gu Xiu was naturally the most respectable of these sons.

Because that is his and Yunyao's child.

More than 30 years ago, he met Yunyao for the first time on Spring Hunting.

That day, his noble brothers bullied him and robbed him of his quiver.When he was at a loss, a girl in red came on a horse and threw the quiver on her back to him.

"Here, use mine."

The girl's bright smiling face is brighter and more moving than the sun.

He just stood there holding the quiver in his arms, watching the girl's back going away, motionless in a daze.

He still remembers the leisurely warm fragrance on the quiver to this day.

That was probably the best day of his life.
