After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

In the middle of June, there is an annoying heat wave in the air.

Although he joined hands with Gu Xiu that day to make an oath, Han Mochu did not relax his request for Gu Xiu to study at all.

Every morning when I get up for the quiz, the rule of drawing a ruler if I make a mistake in a word remains unchanged.The only thing that has changed is that with Han Mochu's careful teaching, Gu Xiu made fewer and fewer mistakes.

If there is a day when Gu Xiu's homework is very good, Han Mochu will break the rules and teach him some interesting heresy.For example, military formations, organ secrets, overseas biographies, ancient books of old dynasties, etc., abilities that ordinary 12-year-olds would not have seen.

But among them, Gu Xiu's favorite is boxing and kicking. The young man's bones are strong, and he can master any simple moves.

That day seemed to be the hottest day in the dog days.

Gu Xiuchen got up for the quiz and made three mistakes.

Han Mochu went about his business as usual, but just as he took out the ruler and tapped it on Gu Xiu's palm, he heard a clear female voice behind him: "Stop! What are you doing?"

Han Mochu turned his head in response, and saw a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, that girl was wearing a crown of pearls and white butterflies on her head, and a skirt of hibiscus and flowers.There are four or five palace people carrying food boxes behind them, and they can be seen as nobles in the palace at a glance.

At this time, the nobleman's clear and beautiful face was sullen, and he stared at Han Mochu sharply: "What did my seventh brother do wrong that you want to punish like this?"

Han Mochu put the ruler in his hand, and respectfully saluted the girl: "Your servant, Han Mochu, have met the nobleman, but who is the nobleman?"

"I am Princess Qingzhao." The girl said straightly, her face unabated, "Are you the Han Mochu who unveiled his official position?"

Princess Qingzhao, Gu Jin, was the only grown-up princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and also the only first-born princess.The biological mother is the Queen Meng who practiced in the palace.

At Gu Jin's age, women from Dazhou can basically discuss marriage.Just because Gu Jin was born in the first place, her biological mother and elder brother left her one after another since she was a child.The king was particularly distressed and partial, and the matter of discussing relatives has always been unhurried, and no one in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty mentioned it much.

The relationship between Gu Jin and Gu Xiu starts from the previous generation.

In the past, when the king Gu Hong was just established as the crown prince, his first wife Yun Yao asked to step down as a side concubine on the grounds that she could not have children for a long time.Crown Prince Gu Hong therefore married Meng Xuefu, a noble daughter of Duke Dingguo's Meng family, as his concubine.

Although her mother, the Meng family, entered the mansion as a concubine, she was a gentle and gentle lady who was raised in the inner house since she was a child, how could she handle Yingying and Yanyan in the prince's mansion.

Without the support and protection of the concubine who is a general, her mother would have been eaten alive by those women.

From the time she could remember, the most vivid memory was the mica concubine who had a fiery personality.The heroic mother and concubine often carried her and her brother on horseback, taught them how to read, and treated them as her own.

She still remembered that on the day when the mother and concubine left the palace, her mother dragged her to kneel in front of her father and emperor in Chongning Palace to make a petition, but unfortunately it was of no avail.The mica concubine left anyway, taking the younger brother in her stomach with her.

When her grandmother passed away that year, and her last words were to take Concubine Yunmu's child back to the palace, she secretly made up her mind to regard this younger brother as a blood brother from the same mother.

Ever since Gu Xiu entered the palace, she has always cherished Zhaofu, no matter how big or small.It's just that most of the time it is hindered by the palace rules, and it seems powerless everywhere.

Two months ago, she was outside the palace when her sixth younger brother Gu You, who was arrogant and domineering since childhood, fought with Gu Xiu.

She was holding back a sigh of relief in her heart, and Han Mochu hit her gunpoint today.

"Yes, it's your servant." Han Mochu smiled and said, "Princess Hui said, Your Majesty is teaching His Majesty the Seventh Prince. As a prince's junior teacher, I have the duty to teach you strictly. If there is any collision, please forgive me."

Gu Jin didn't intend to pay attention to Han Mochu, but went straight to Gu Xiu's side, and pulled Gu Xiu into his arms: "Chi'er, tell elder sister that he bullied you?" The left hand looked around carefully: "Is it hurting? If it hurts, the elder sister will ask his crime and drive him out of the palace."

Through Gu Jin's mouth, Han Mochu knew for the first time that Gu Xiu's surname was actually Yun Chi, and the line was the descendant of the Yun family, and Chi'er was the baby name.

Gu Xiu, the little wolf cub who was not good at getting close to people, stiffened half of his shoulders and let Gu Jin hug him, and replied softly, "No."

"Master Han, my seventh younger brother is the most gentle and honest prince. Don't deceive him because he is young and has no mother. As the elder sister, I always take care of him." Gu Jin held a round fan to cool Gu Xiu, while Loving Gu Xiu's hair with infinite doting, his attitude towards Han Mochu has never been friendly.

Han Mochu didn't really care about the princess's attitude towards him, but he really didn't know how the princess Qingzhao in front of him related the word "gentle and honest" with Gu Xiu, a little wolf cub who was three feet away from strangers. of.

Is it true that "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"?

"Yes, I will keep this in mind." Han Mochu replied warmly.

"Chi'er, elder sister went out of the palace to accompany mother's queen a few days ago, so I didn't come to see you. You have a good life these days..." Before Gu Jin finished speaking, he glanced at the surrounding environment, and he was stunned. Living.

She knew that within a few days after her younger brother entered the palace, someone emptied the palace, so there were no chairs in the room, and she got used to it a few times.In addition, just now she was patronizing to prevent Han Mochu from beating someone, so she didn't take a closer look inside the house.Now after taking a closer look, I found that not only is there no furnishings in the huge main room of Guiyun Palace, except for the two small square tables for practicing calligraphy, there is a mountain of books on the wall, and there are a bunch of unnamed small books on the ground. Things are scattered and trivial, with almost no place to set foot.

Gu Jin's expression that had just eased became serious again in an instant: "Chi'er, is there no one to clean up your palace?" After speaking, he looked at Han Mochu intentionally or unintentionally: "Master Han, you are here with me every day. Isn’t it uncomfortable for the seventh brother to teach? My seventh brother is young and easy to deal with, and he doesn’t know how to command slaves, don’t you understand?”

"Back to the princess, it's my negligence." Han Mochu replied warmly.

Han Mochu was indeed negligent. If Gu Jin hadn't come here today, he would not have noticed when the main room had become so chaotic.

The huge book library left by Mr. Yi has been neglected all year round. There are a sea of ​​books in it, but for some reason no one cares about it.He then gave the old eunuch in charge of Zangshu Pavilion dozens of taels of silver, and then brought back all the books he and Gu Xiu wanted to read.

From one volume to two volumes, to ten volumes to eight volumes, the more I borrowed, the more lazy I was to clean them up.He flipped through a lot every day, and the books were all useful, so he never returned them. Sometimes, in order to let Gu Xiu see the things recorded in the books more intuitively, he even made a lot of real objects by himself. piled on the ground.

Bao De was always a fool, he only did what he was asked to do, and he didn't dare to move things in the main room, he only dared to sweep the floating dust every day and then retreated.

Gu Xiu and Han Mochu didn't talk about theory, they just read, write, practice martial arts and boxing every day.

So the huge main room of Guiyun Palace began to pile up more and more chaotically.

What's even more amazing is that because of Baode's hard work, although the pile of books and walls are messy, they are only messy and not dirty.

These days, Han Mochu and Gu Xiu drank and ate together, slept together, and he thought he took care of Gu Xiu very well.

It's a pity that no matter how careful Han Mochu is, he is still a big man.

A big man with a half-grown boy and a half-stupid Baode.

The entire days of Guiyun Palace can be described in only four words: muddled and muddled.

"Sister, I'll let someone clean it up some other day." Gu Xiu also glanced at the pile of books behind him and said to clean it up another day, but in his heart he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the magnificent mess in front of him.

"I don't think there's any need to wait another day. Just let the people I bring clean up for you. I also brought a lot of things for you." Gu Jin rubbed the swollen eyebrows, and basically had no eyes to look at this room again. house.

"Sister."

Gu Jin didn't intend to give Gu Xiu a chance to refuse, so he blocked what Gu Xiu wanted to say: "Master Han, count the days and my seventh brother should have lifted his feet two days ago, take him for a walk in the palace , You can bring him back later when the work here is finished."

Han Mochu took the opportunity to agree, and waved to Gu Xiu to call him to his side: "Your Highness, you can go with the ministers, you should go out for a walk after being bored for these days." After saying that plainly, he leaned over to face him again. Gu Xiu whispered in his ear: "Your Highness, how about I accompany you to practice boxing and kicking?"

After Gu Xiu heard this, he turned around and walked out of the house, as if he was afraid that Han Mochu would regret it if he walked too slowly.

Turning out of Guiyun Palace, looking at the long and narrow palace road, the two of them were at a loss for a moment.

Not long after Han Mo first entered the palace, he has hardly been to other places except Zangshu Pavilion since entering the palace.

Gu Xiu is the same, he has been in the palace for less than a year, the king Gu Hong has already made a decree, and the princes don't have to worry about it.Even on days when he can't help himself, he lives in seclusion and rarely goes out.

Because every time he went out, he was guaranteed to get into trouble.

The two of them were suddenly asked to walk around the palace, and they really didn't know where to go, so they could only walk aimlessly along the palace road.

Guiyun Palace is located in a remote place, both sides of the palace road are backlit places, walking slowly, it is not too hot.

"Your Highness, I see that Your Highness the Princess loves you very much."

The two walked side by side and chatted without saying a word.

"Ah."

"Then why doesn't His Highness live with the princess?"

"The palace rules are above, men and women are different." Gu Xiu looked at the invisible palace road ahead, sighed and said: "Besides, in my situation, the eldest sister has a pure heart and will leave the palace to get married in the future. I'd better not get too close to her."

"Is Your Highness afraid that if something happens in the future, the princess will be implicated?"

"Yeah." Gu Xiu nodded.

Although Gu Xiu looks withdrawn, he is a sincere young man with kind thoughts.

How Princess Qingzhao treated him, he remembered it in his heart early in the morning.

But the more this was the case, the less he wanted this elder sister to bother about his affairs.

"Although your Highness said so, for those who are sincerely close, they will not feel burdened even by swords and fires. Your Highness is carrying all these things by himself." Han Mochu patted Gu Xiu's shoulder: "The burden on the shoulders is too heavy. High."

Gu Xiu didn't answer, instead he quickly grabbed Han Mochu's wrist, using his legs to turn around and pin Han Mochu's left foot, and punched him with a wave of his hand.

Han Mochu dodged on his back, broke free from the restraints, took two steps back, stood on the spot and said with a smile: "Your Highness is getting faster and faster. If His Highness just has a sword in his hand, then I won't be able to dodge it."

"But I don't know how to use a sword yet."

The two continued to walk side by side, as if nothing had happened just now.

"I can teach you." Han Mochu smiled and raised his eyebrows at Gu Xiu: "You can call me Master, and I will answer you."

"I don't want to learn the sword." Gu Xiu took two quick steps forward, trying to leave Han Mochu behind.

"Your Highness, it's been so long, and I've been doing my best to you, can't I be worthy of your master?" Han Mochu shook his head, full of coldness in the world.

"Master Han." Gu Xiu glanced at him, slowed down his pace, and yelled out of face.

"Forget it, Master Han is also the same." Han Mochu responded with a smile, walked to Gu Xiu's side again and continued to move forward side by side.

The palace road in front of them was wide and long, and neither of them knew where this road led.

However, if someone can walk side by side on the same road, no matter where they go, it seems to be less important.
