After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

Time passed quickly in the palace, and more than a month passed quietly in the blink of an eye.

Once August is over, the weather cools down completely, which is the most comfortable time of the year.

August is also the busiest month in the palace except for the New Year.

Because in this month, the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet collided with King Gu Hong's Longevity Festival.Up and down in the palace, inside and outside the court, will gather their strength this month.

Except, Gu Xiu's Guiyun Palace.

Gu Xiu, as a prince whose mother and concubine had died, was undisputedly penniless.

That is, there is no opportunity to make contributions, nor the ability to buy expensive gifts.So at the beginning of that month, Han Mochu urged Gu Xiu to write two birthday poems, which were sent out of the palace to be made into embroidered pieces.

It can also be regarded as a wish within one's ability.

In the afternoon, the sky is clear and crisp.

Wearing a neat tight-sleeved Kui robe, Han Mochu accompanied Gu Xiu to practice sword in the middle of the courtyard.

Gu Xiu, a child of his grandfather's family who fought for a lifetime, was born with the flesh and blood of martial arts.Ever since Han Mochu sent the Neifu Secretary to ask for two unsharp swords that day, Gu Xiu was out of control.

The empty courtyard in Guiyun Palace is also just suitable for the two of them to perform.

Therefore, practicing sword moves with Gu Xiu gradually became a daily compulsory subject.

When Gu Xiu was young, he learned how to grow!Gun, a 12-year-old boy learning sword is still somewhat difficult compared to Tong Zigong.Fortunately, Gu Xiu was very diligent and never complained a word.

When teaching Gu Xiu how to learn swordsmanship, Han Mochu always remembered the scene when he was learning swordsmanship when he was young.

At that time, he had just experienced the tragic massacre, and he would struggle and cry in nightmares every night, and tried several calming medicines one after another to no avail.

Mr. Yi Yi gave him a wooden sword and taught him every move by his hand.

When he was sweating profusely and couldn't bear it, Mr. Yi Ji told him: "Zi Ran, you don't have to be afraid if you have a sword in your hand. Even if there is no one behind you, even if you are in a desperate situation, As long as you have a sword in your hand, you will always be able to fight for your own life. Because the person who holds the sword only looks forward."

Now, he also taught Gu Xiu this sentence.

There is another very important reason why Han Mochu let Gu Xiu learn swordsmanship, that is, this child always remembers by ear when he fights sword moves with Han Mochu, no matter what he just needs to be taught once, and if he asks another day, he can answer fluently.

Today, Gu Xiu memorized "List of Teachers".

Han Mochu said the first sentence, and Gu Xiu said the next sentence.Not only learning literature, but also practicing martial arts, killing two birds with one stone.

Han Mochu, who was holding a sword, had an elegant figure, while Gu Xiu's footwork was steady.

The autumn wind was blowing, and the clothes of the two were fluttering, and it looked like a dance from a distance.With every move and style, he was full of spirit and vigorously reprimanded Fang Qiu.

Baode, who could see the comings and goings, was taken aback for a while.

After about an hour, both of them finally withdrew their sword gestures.

Han Mochu stepped forward and wiped the sweat from Gu Xiu's forehead with his cuff: "Your Highness practiced well today, go back and change."

"En." Gu Xiu nodded, and followed Han Mochu into the wing room where Han Mochu lived alone.

There are two small couches facing each other in the wing room, which are prepared for Gu Xiu and Han Mochu to live together.Every day before going to bed, Han Mochu would tell Gu Xiu an allusion of the successive Ming emperors and important ministers conquering the world.The next day, Gu Xiu will be asked to write an essay on this topic.Gradually, the policy theory written by Gu Xiu became more and more comprehensive.

So much so that when King Gu Hong occasionally asked about homework, he couldn't help but praise Gu Xiu's writing.In addition to the praise, he also rewarded a few pieces of newly offered topaz to Han Mochu who has made great contributions in teaching.

The king's heart is the wind direction in the palace, and a few words of praise from the king can instantly turn the faces of the people in the palace into three points of flattery.For this, Han Mochu let Gu Xiu choose to keep his heart, that is, pretend not to see it.After changing clothes, the two came to the main room where they used to teach again.The main room was still in chaos, and there was almost nowhere to set foot except where the two of them were seated.Princess Qingzhao tidied up once, and within three to five days she returned to normal.So again and again, over and over again.Princess Qingzhao finally gave up on managing the main room, and every time she came here, she tried to call Gu Xiu outside to talk.

As the saying goes, what is out of sight is pure.

"Seventh brother, don't be bored, there is excitement in the palace today."

On this sunny afternoon, Princess Qingzhao Gu Jin came, with brisk steps and a cheerful expression.But when she pushed open the closed door of the main room and saw Gu Xiu who was writing at his desk among the piles of books, and Han Mochu who had four or five books spread out in front of him at the same time, her face quickly collapsed.

Since she ignored it, the main room became even more chaotic.

"Elder Sister." Gu Xiu looked up from the pile of books in response, "Why are you here today?"

"..." Gu Jin supported his forehead, not knowing where to put his eyes, because there was chaos everywhere, so he could only cover his sight intentionally or unintentionally.

Han Mochu calmly packed up the four or five books in front of him, and made a space in the room just enough for one person to sit, and said with a warm smile, "Princess, please sit down."

Gu Jin looked at the blank space on the other side, entangled again and again, and sat down with the hem of his skirt, and said to Gu Xiu: "The second emperor returned to the palace today, and he brought the envoys and annual offerings of the Raksha Kingdom. This year's In the yearly offering, there is a nine-foot-tall black dog, which is being transported to the Department of Beasts on the southwest palace road. It is said that the black dog can understand human language, know rhythm, and can dance. Seventh brother, do you want to go and see it first?"

Gu Xiu was born in the northern wilderness since he was a child, and he was used to seeing those ferocious giant beasts, so he didn't have much interest in the nine-foot giant bear that Gu Jin was talking about.Compared to this, he prefers the book on the art of war formation in his hand.So she refused and said, "Elder Sister, I don't really like places with many people."

"Your Highness, why don't you go there, I want to see what that Heiji looks like." Han Mochu closed the book in front of Gu Xiu, and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Gu Jin also echoed: "Master Han has already spoken, so you should move."

"Okay." Gu Xiu nodded and got up.

The three of them walked out the door, Gu Jin naturally took Gu Xiu's hand.Clutching his younger brother's hand, Gu Jin suddenly felt bitter.

The younger brother's palm is bigger than her peers, almost catching up with her, and there are calluses on the palm that do not match his age.Compared with those younger brothers who grew up in the palace, Gu Xiu suffered too much grievance when he was young.

"Chi'er, are you eating well these days?" Gu Jin stretched out his hand to pinch Gu Xiu's face: "It seems like you've lost weight again."

"It's not that I've lost weight, but I've grown stronger." Gu Xiu took Gu Jin's hand and patted himself on the shoulder.

"Okay, you are strong." Gu Jin said with a smile: "In a year or two, you will be taller than elder sister."

The Gu Xiu siblings spoke in front, and Han Mochu followed behind them.Among the companions were several personal servants brought by the princess.

Those girls who were about the same age as the princess always looked at Han Mochu intentionally or unintentionally with very eager eyes.

Han Mochu chose to turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.

In the afternoon of autumn, a group of several people finally came to the palace road where Hei Ling entered the palace.

There were quite a few palace people watching on the palace road. Seeing that Gu Jin was bringing Gu Xiu, the palace people immediately made way for Gu Jin and his party.

Along that passage, Han Mochu saw a dozen or so Rakshasa slaves struggling to pull a cart with an iron cage measuring one foot square.

A huge black fur ball was curled up inside the car, and the fur ball let out a few dull breathing sounds from time to time, as if it had fallen asleep.

The giant beast curled up in the iron cage was two heads taller than a grown man, let alone when it stood up completely.

Watching the caged car move forward, Han Mochu couldn't help but hold his breath.

At the front of the caged car team was a young man from the Zhou Dynasty in armor with a dusty face, and two blond Rakshasa nobles.It seems that they are the second prince Gu Zhi who came back to urge his confession, and the envoys from Raksha Kingdom who came to congratulate him.

The second prince, Gu Zhi, is the only adult prince in the entire Great Zhou Palace. His biological mother, Mrs. Zhou, was born as a maid.This trip to press for a confession is the king's last assessment of his adult title.

Gu Jin led Gu Xiu and walked up to him, saluted Gu Zhifu, "I've met the second emperor brother."

"I've met the second emperor brother." Gu Xiu accompanied him and saluted.

Gu Zhi raised his hand to make the team stop first, and the three of them talked to each other, Gu Zhi slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Jin'er and the seventh younger brother are also watching the fun?" While talking, Gu Zhi noticed Han Mochu who was accompanying him.

When did such a man with extraordinary bearing and unparalleled appearance appear in the palace again?Because he was going out every day, Han Mochu didn't wear official uniforms, so Gu Zhi couldn't see the identity of this person for a while, so he could only ask, "I wonder who this gentleman is?"

"Chen Han Mo has met His Royal Highness the Second Prince for the first time."

"I don't know the emperor has been away from the palace for a long time. This is the prince's junior teacher of the seventh brother. He only entered the palace a few months ago." Gu Jin said.

"It turned out to be Young Master Han." Gu Zhi nodded in greeting, then turned to look at Gu Jin: "Aren't you afraid that the two of you came from such a long distance to watch the excitement?"

"Isn't this animal locked? What's so scary about an animal locked in a car?" Gu Jin tilted his head and looked at the huge black ball in the car, with a puzzled look on his face.

Gu Zhi smiled, and suddenly drew out the long sword at his waist and slashed the iron cage. The iron cage clanged, and the giant bear in the cage immediately roared irritably.

That roar was like a mountain roar and a tsunami, shaking people's ears sorely.Gu Jin shrank his head suddenly in fright, even though he was afraid, he still didn't forget to plug the ears of Gu Xiu beside him.

Not long ago, Gu Zhigang used this hand to frighten and cry the sixth prince Gu You who was clamoring to ride on the back of a bear.

Sure enough, this method has been tried and tested.

"Second Brother, what did you do to provoke it? Can't you just let it fall asleep?" Gu Jin was angry and scared at the moment, and he lost all desire to see the black bear just now, and just hugged Gu Xiu's shoulder and stepped back.

"Hahahaha." Gu Zhi laughed loudly, and looked down at Gu Jinhuai with the same expression, Gu Xiu: "Seventh brother is not afraid, after all, it is my daughter's home. Forget it, you two, don't bother me with my business. Let this Send the animals to the Department of Beasts, and I will report back to my father."

With a blushing face, Gu Jin pulled Gu Xiu out of the way, and as the huge iron cage car slowly moved away, the palace people watching the excitement also dispersed.

There was silence on the palace road.

Gu Jin breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fears in his heart, took Gu Xiu's hand again and said in a warm voice: "Chi'er, let's go back. Miss Suanban will send you some assorted soft cakes that you like, okay?"

"Sister." Gu Xiu called out.

"what?"

"It's not that Chi'er is not afraid, it's because of the eldest sister by her side that she is not afraid just now."

Hearing this, Gu Jin smiled happily, sweeping away the haze and embarrassment just now.

Han Mochu thought, this is probably why Gu Jinhui said that Gu Xiu is the most gentle and honest prince in the palace.
