I smiled and hooked my third brother's neck, held my second brother's hand, looked at my eldest brother, and quietly said, "Brothers, I'm afraid I've forgotten. A few days ago, you asked Sheng'er what wish I made. I said I wanted to be the crown princess, and my brothers laughed

Gu Shiqi didn't know what method he used, but actually accused Wei Linfeng, a Tanhua man with a long eyebrows and a zhilan and jade tree, to be a master for the princess.

I heard that the emperor disagreed and said that the scientific examination was to select talents for the court, not for the princess.

The queen also felt that it was inappropriate to let the young and handsome man teach the princess.

Gu Shiqi offered his advice, "I would like to be taught with Princess Duanjing, and use a screen to separate the princess from Wei Linfeng when I went to the classroom. Besides, my brother is watching, is there anything else that I don’t want to worry about , the emperor’s wife, ? "

After listening to what Gu Shiqi reposted, I complained in my heart: The queen is most worried about, probably you are with her.

The queen still refused. The princess was anxious and said a bunch of bad words about the current Grand Tutor, such as being harsh and pedantic. Even the disrespectful words of the old lady who looked too ugly were useless, but it was useless, but it ruined the Queen's scolding.

When there was no way out, the princess simply used her killer move - crying and hunger strike. After three days of trouble, she finally forced the queen to nod and agreed, and became the emperor's lobbyist.

I specially took the lotus wine I brewed to thank Gu Shiqi, "You understand the princess. "

Gu Shiqi was very disdainful, "I was forced to understand her for you. "

" How could Wei Linfeng agree to your lobbying? What method did you use to force him? "

" Wei Linfeng is a down-and-out young man. He has been rich and poorer. What I bet is that he may not have taken the career in the officialdom in order to realize his ideals and ambitions. Just vaguely reveal the princess' admiration for him and analyze the interests casually, and he will take the bait. Besides, look at the Tanhuas in my dynasty, who did not become the princess and princess consort in the end? Those who achieve great things only need to consider the pros and cons, without considering the right or wrong. ”

Since then, the princess has no longer been my trouble.

But I have reserved what Gu Shiqi said, there is no right or wrong in the world, just because there are right or wrong in the world.

Three years after the expedition, the Mo Kingdom has won many victories, and the good news in the front has been frequent, and the three brothers have also made military achievements.

All the ministers in the dynasty praised General Xiao for his premature sword and said that he was good at teaching his children. The three young men were young heroes, and even I became a hot pursuit in the palace.

During the day, the Empress announced that I went to Changle Palace , saying that the Xiao family was loyal, and that there were fathers and brothers in the previous dynasty who killed the enemy for the country. After I entered the palace as a princess, I also had the merit of admonition.

Recently, she received a string of red jade beads tributed by Fanbang . The delicate and crystal clear bracelets are very similar to me, so she rewarded them to me.

It was night, and I brought a plate of peanuts and made an appointment with Gu Shiqi. I drank to each other in the yard of Yong'an Palace, sighing that everyone was really forgetful.

"Earlier, General Xiao was in charge of his troops, and he was afraid that his memorials would still be piled up in the imperial study. How could they be ashamed to lick their faces and say those flattering words that held the Xiao family high?"

Gu Shiqi wore a moon-white gown, held a wine glass and sat on the eaves of the corridor.

A long dark brown hair was tied high with a golden crown, the face was as angular as a carved one, and the deep eyes were cold, but when I looked at me, I had a gentle smile. Under the light moonlight, he looked like a person walking out of a painting.

I heard that Gu Shiqi looks very much like his mother, and his mother is very beautiful.

"The people in the palace have always worshipped high and stepped on low. If you are in power, even if you are just a princess, the queen will speak sluggishly when she speaks to you. If you are not in power, even a palace maid will dare to do anything to you. Sheng'er, don't be confused by the insincere flattery."

I nodded, "This is true."

After getting along for a long time, I have already agreed that Gu Shiqi called me Sheng'er privately, but there is only one title left.

I picked up the wine glass and took a sip, like drinking nectar.

This wine was brewed last fall. I saved it for more than half a year and I specially made an appointment with Gu Shiqi to unseal it.

My ability to brew wine was learned from the notes left by my mother when I was a child. My father and brother had drunk it and said that the taste was the same as that of my mother, so I brewed several jars every year.

My habit of brewing wine after entering the palace did not change. I picked the most delicate delicious lotus in Taiye Pool and stored two jars of lotus brewed. Later, Gu Shiqi helped me go up the city tower to send my father and brother to the battle, so I replied to him a jar to express my gratitude.

When he first drank it, he said, "The wine you brewed is fragrant and pleasant, with a mellow and sweet taste, soft and not strong, very sweet and tasty, making people feel greedy."

When I was happy, I gave him another jar.

Later, osmanthus brewed in autumn, kumquat wine in winter, green plum wine in spring... all came into his mouth.

Gu Shiqi looked up and saw the red jade beads on my wrist frowned, "The fragrance of this bracelet is unusual."

I put my wrist in front of him, "The Queen's reward was said to be tributed by the foreign country, and there is a unique string under the palace."

"This is such a good thing, the Queen should reward the princess." He took the red jade beads from my wrist, "I'll send it to the princess for you."

I went to take the red jade beads he held in his hand, "The Queen's rewards my baby, if it is in your hands, wouldn't it be confirmed that you would be sure that the Queen's rewards me. Are my rumors? Tomorrow I have my own way to let the princess snatch it from me, and then I will watch the queen act together. "

Gu Shiqi grabbed my wrist and narrowed his eyes to me, "Are you afraid?"

My face was flushed and my eyes flashed, "I, what's there to be afraid of."

"That's it, I'm not afraid." Gu Shiqi smiled brightly, "You will be sixteen in a few months. I'll go to the emperor to ask for an order to give us a marriage?"

"Not good." The words of rejection blurted out.

Gu Shiqi's face changed, "Do you don't want to?"

I stared at Gu Shiqi and didn't reply to him. If he was not born in the imperial family, maybe I would do it.

I want to look up at the sky, lean over the earth, gallop in the vast world, and find my own place.

And for Gu Shiqi, I am not a good match.

Gu Shiqi's marriage must be unacceptable to his will, and the emperor will not marry the daughter of the humeral minister to him.

With my father's current military merits, if Gu Shiqi asks for an order to marry us, no matter whether he really wants to rebel, the emperor will be suspicious of him.

So, for oneself and him, we may be good people, but we are not good matches.

Gu Shiqi stared at me for a long time, and suddenly said, "Look, I'll just joke with you."

When he let go of my hand, his cold fingertips passed by the back of my hand, "I'll leave the palace and open the palace in March. The emperor has already chosen for me the granddaughter of Xuanping Hou as the Princess of Jin. After returning to Ning Banquet, we will set off to the fiefdom and become a vassal."

Xuanping Hou was a successor and had no achievements in the court. Moreover, the only son died early and there was only one granddaughter under his knees.

suddenly heard Gu Shiqi's words, and I was very panicked. I barely suppressed my ups and downs and pretended not to care. "Oh, then I'll say congratulations first. But why didn't you hear you say before?"

"What the emperor said to me today," he filled himself with wine, "I saw Wen Jingyi at the palace banquet. I stared at the mirror and smiled three times, and I was very gentle and kind to others. If I have the opportunity to introduce it to you in the future."

I responded with a smile, but I felt a little angry.

Gu Shiqi is really blind. Wen Jingyi is not as beautiful as he said. She is just the beautiful faces and eyes that all the ladies of a family have. As for their temperament, you can tell by looking at their faces?

9

On the day of Gu Shiqi's wedding, he ran away.

Wen Jingyi became the laughing stock of the entire capital.

The gray-bearded Hou Ping knelt in front of the emperor and asked the emperor to be fair to his precious granddaughter.

I heard that Wen Jingyi could not bear the shame of the groom running away on the wedding day, and was making a fuss at home to go to Jingzhao Temple to be a sister-in-law.

The emperor was furious and immediately sent an elite force out of the palace to search, saying that he would dig three feet into the ground, and he would also find Gu Shiqi, tie him back to the capital and apologize to the Hou Xuanping and Wen Jingyi.

The emperor promised to Mr. Xuanping: "I have granted Wen Jingyi the title of princess, and then I will hold a more grand wedding for the two of them."

The head of Mr. Xuanping shook like an rattle , "Your Majesty must not be, your granddaughter Jingyi may become a topic of conversation for everyone again, and you will really not be able to live by then."

The confidant sent by the emperor, searching for three months, but Gu Shiqi seemed to have disappeared from the world, without any news.

And in the past few months, several things have happened in the palace.

One, the new top scholar was appointed by the emperor to go out of Beijing to work hard, and he received praise from him. He openly rejected the emperor's reward of gold, silver and wealth in the court, but asked for an order to marry Wen Jingyi.

At that time, the emperor was worried that the mess that Gu Shiqi had made would not end well. Seeing someone taking the initiative to pick up this hot potato, he nodded and agreed, and even granted Wen Jingyi the title of princess and married from the palace.

When I heard this news, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Gu Shiqi's regret of marriage may not be related to me, since he escaped from marriage, I inexplicably apologized to Wen Jingyi.

Secondly, my father won the battle, but he was reluctant to return to Beijing.

There are rumors that the emperor deliberately took advantage of the reason why his father's military power by taking advantage of the eldest brother's order and refused to go out of the camp privately.

I believe this suspicious and incompetent emperor can do this stupid thing of killing a donkey.

10

I speak for my father and brother in my heart.

At that time, the two sides had been in a stalemate for more than one month. Most of our soldiers were from the Central Plains and southerners. Those who were not good at riding and shooting were not good at fighting hard, but they were unable to match their strength.After

, due to constant natural disasters, bandits were robbed of supplies of food, grass and medicinal materials.

There was heavy snow in front of it, and there was a shortage of food and grass in the future. Gradually, the troops could not keep up, and even soldiers were frozen to death and starved to death.

It was the eldest brother who led a team of light cavalry, threw away the surveillance of the opponent's spies, broke through and touched the enemy's camp, and cut off the head of the Turkic Khan, and the Mo Kingdom finally won.

However, because the eldest brother did not directly receive his father's order when he left the camp, the slander in the court used this as a reason to study the book of the father and brother.

said that the eldest brother had no military discipline and had left his post without permission, so he should be detained first, and then handed over to the Ministry of War for a decision after the escort is returned to Beijing.

also said that his father was suspected of being sheltered.

The emperor issued an edict and ordered his father to escort his elder brother back to Beijing to explain to the court, but his father dragged on the grounds that the remnants of the Turks had not yet been cleared.

The slander ministers used this to write another book, saying that his father was very good at lord, and he held heavy troops in his hands, threatening the foundation of the country. There are even rumors in the palace that the emperor wants to take back the military power in the name of holding his father and brother accountable, and even wants to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Just after winning the battle, the people of Mo Kingdom praised all their fathers and brothers. The emperor was afraid of affecting his reputation as a wise ruler, so he did not order the death to be executed and maintain the warmth on the surface.

For a moment, I went from being so popular that everyone avoided me. Even the palace maids and eunuchs had to take a detour when they saw me.

Gu Shiqi said it well, people in this palace will always praise the high and push the low.

I asked Lexin to find a good way out quickly. She shook her head, "I followed the noble man's order to serve the girl. If the noble man does not let me leave, I will always guard the girl."

"The noble man is a person in the palace," I thought, "And is a man?"

Seeing Lexin blushing and biting her lips without saying anything, a figure appeared in my mind.

"The poems that Princess Duanjing cannot write, golden sore medicine, various snacks, and silver bones, charcoal and sable fur coats that are supplied in sufficient winter every year are all arrangements for noble people."

Lexin nodded, "The noble person said that if the girl wants, I just say it to him and listen to it. The noble person will find every means to get it."

"Then please help me pass on the word, and I am in Yong'an at the hour of Hai today. Waiting for him in the palace. "

11

Gu Yiheng stood in the weedy yard of Yong'an Palace and took a jar of wine to wait for me. "I thought my daughter arrived early, but I didn't expect that the prince's prince arrived earlier than me."

He raised the jar of wine in my hand at me, "It was the lotus wine you brewed the year you entered the palace. Do you want to drink a glass?"

" This lotus How could the Huajiu come to Your Highness? "I was a little puzzled, and then smiled indifferently, "What is the purpose of Your Highness? Do you want to get your daughter drunk in this uninhabited side hall? "

The prince blushed and stuttered, "I don't mean this. I asked the uncle of Jin in the past. I just wanted to relieve you."

"Your Highness is intent, but my daughter is not depressed." I declined, "The Qing Dynasty is from the Qing Dynasty, but the minister is not depressed." The daughter doesn’t need to worry about her father and brother. "

" My daughter meets with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, just to figure out one thing. "I sat down on the stone bench, "I can’t understand why His Royal Highness wants to help me."

"I have a close relationship with Brother Shang Qing, and Brother Shang Qing’s sister is my sister."

Xiao Shangqing is the third brother who loves to mess with me the most. Since I was a child, I have taken me to do ridiculous things that ladies don’t do.

Because he had saved Gu Yiheng, the crown prince, who was a few months younger than him, respected him as brother.

Gu Yiheng has been weak since childhood, and the queen has restrained him a lot, which made him feel rebellious.

When he was twelve years old, he sneaked out of the palace and bought a horse in the market. He rode out of the city with a lone courage, wanting to feel the vastness of the world.

It’s just that he has been in the riding and shooting class for a short time and is not proficient in horse control. When the horse was frightened and ran wildly on the mountain road, Gu Yiheng was at a loss, it was the third brother who flew on the horse from the treetops and tamed the horse, which allowed him to be safe and sound.

In addition to saving him that day, the third brother also taught him a lot of ways to control horses and protect himself. Gu Yiheng was grateful to the third brother and admired and envious.

Once and again, the two became friends who could talk about everything.

Gu Yiheng doesn't want to cause trouble for my father. Over the years, he and his third brother were just secretly interacting with each other. The only person around him who knew his relationship with his third brother was Guard Gu.

The prince also learned some methods of strengthening the body and training the body with his third brother, and his body is much stronger than before.

Gu Yiheng said that since he respected the third brother and called him brother, the affairs of the Xiao family were his.

He will try his best to mediate from it and make the big brother's affairs small.

Hearing this, I put away my smile and looked at him coldly, "In this way, Your Highness the Crown Prince also thinks that the eldest brother of the minister is wrong?"

Gu Yiheng looked up. The moonlight was cold and the stars were hidden behind the thick clouds. "General Xiao Xiao did not get the military order and left the camp privately. But he was successful in killing the thieves. I have the confidence to persuade his father to repay his merits and demerits. However, dozens of military sticks are inevitable."

I smiled gently, "The prince has asked, why did the eldest brother not know about his father after leaving the camp?"

My eldest brother has never been a person who is over the rules and usurped the rules.

That day, the eldest brother went to the main account to discuss countermeasures with his father. When he reached the door, he was stopped by Deputy General Du Ling. "General Xiao didn't close his eyes for a few days. After taking the medicine, he just fell asleep. The young general should not go in." When the eldest brother turned around and was about to leave, the guards said that he had seen the enemy spy twenty miles away, and he saw that he was coming towards the camp. The matter was urgently followed, so the elder brother brought an elite light cavalry to intercept and drive him away, and asked Deputy General Du to tell his father the truth.

, but that was just a Turkish trick to lure the enemy, in order to disrupt the morale of the army and cut off his father's right-hand man.

The eldest brother was poor in advance and retreat, and was attacked from both sides and lost contact, which led to many speculations in the army, and there were rumors that the eldest brother colluded with the enemy and treason.

It was not until a few days later that the elder brother was in pain and returned with the Turkic Khan's head, and he blocked everyone's mouths.

"The emperor did not reward but punished me, but I would like to ask: What is the crime of my daughter's elder brother?"

"If I really want to discuss the crime, it is also a crime of Duling. Have your highness ever thought that my daughter's father has been in war for half his life, and he has never been saddled on the battlefield, and his armor is always withered. When the war is in urgent need of food and grass, the soldiers and horses are frozen to death and starved to death, how could he take medicine to sleep? Xiao's son is loyal to the country and must not be framed out of thin air."

"Duling's villain has made a private plan. In front of him, he deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates, and later he denied that he had met his elder brother. Even the guards who were rumored that night were missing. What's more, some deliberately spread rumors and confused the morale of the army. There are many suspicious points. The court did not investigate, but kept holding on to the elder brother who made military achievements. Are you not afraid of the hearts of the soldiers?"

" Or, what the emperor wants to discuss is not the right or wrong of the elder brother, but is it really as the rumor says?"

" His Royal Highness comes today What is the identity of the daughter of the minister? Is it the crown prince of the country or the friend of the brother? If I am lobbying my father to persuade my daughter, it will be difficult for me to obey my father. If I were a friend, a true friend would not think of my brother like this. "

" or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to win over his father and consolidate his power for himself, then Xiao Mi can only sigh that the third brother is blind. "

" is unrestrained!" Gu Yiheng cut off me with his throat, "Do you know if this remark today is spread to me? The emperor's ears were the death penalty for beheading."

I stared at Gu Yiheng with my neck full of anger, "I, Xiao Mi, just tell the truth. If you want to kill and cut, you will listen to the emperor. Unlike Your Highness, the crown prince of the country, you can't reach the point of eating. "

Gu Yiheng's thick eyebrows were twisted into a ball, and his chest was fluctuating violently. It took a long time to calm down his emotions. "I agreed today, thinking that you wanted to discuss countermeasures with me and find a proper way. It seems that I am just having a happy moment."

" Over the years, have you not seen how good I treat you? In the past, I was afraid that I would get too close to you, and I would be bad for you, so I could only help you in the dark. Now that you know everything, don’t you feel anything? Do you have to talk to me like this? "

" That Your Highness listened to him and believed him, have you ever seen the good things about his father and brother? How does Your Highness want his daughter to react? Ignore my father and brother's safety, appreciate your good intentions, thank Your Highness for your love, and sacrifice your sincerity? Or rely on you and seek a lot of luck for your father and brother? "

" Over the years, Your Highness has never extended a helping hand when his daughter really needs help. Have your Highness ever thought that everything you did was just touching yourself? It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide timely help. "

"Who is the timely helper in your heart, Gu Shiqi? "Gu Yiheng clenched his fists tightly, his face dark and ugly, "Where is he now?" I'm afraid I'm too busy to take care of myself. What was the difference between what I did in the past and what Gu Shiqi did, but he was in the light and I was in the dark. Why are you so hostile to me? "

" I did not say that he was a timely helper. Your Highness argued with me, and it seemed narrow-minded to get involved in others and judge others by oneself. I have never considered the love affairs of my children in the palace. Today I advise Your Highness not to think too much, and it is better to go back to the affairs of my father and brother. "

" The sage said: If you don't know the wise, you will harm the domineering; if you know but don't use it, you will harm the domineering; if you use but don't take responsibility, you will harm the domineering; if you don't believe but don't believe, you will harm the domineering; if you trust and then send a villain to it, you will harm the domineering. The Xiao family has been loyal to the victim from the great-grandfather, and has no different intentions. If His Highness the Crown Prince is determined, he can send someone to investigate and make a judgment. "

Before leaving Yong'an Palace, Gu Yiheng asked me: "Are you willing..." I had a bad feeling and answered, "I don't want to." "

Gu Yiheng ignored me and said to himself: "I have seen you when Shang Qing saved me that day. Your round face is red and cute. You called Brother Wu and gave me a wild fruit. It's very sweet, it's the best fruit I've ever eaten. "

" You said, you only give the fruit to the person you like the most. "He paused," you also said that you should be nice to you after eating your fruit. "

Then I remembered that on that day, the third brother and I were picking fruits on the tree, but he suddenly flew out, making me stay in the tree for a long time, and I was a little scared.

When he came to find me, I was angry and deliberately said a lot of angry words.

includes, but not limited to, "I will never like the third brother again, I want to like others", "This brother is so beautiful, I look better than the third brother at first glance, from now on, Sheng'er likes this brother the most"...

also deliberately handed him the biggest and sweetest fruit left to the third brother.

But after saying this, I forgot it, and the third brother never took it seriously. After all, I always say these words in front of the three brothers every day.

No one expected that Gu Yiheng listened to this joke in his heart.

"Your Highness," I forced a bitter smile, "I'll ask you for your father and brother. As for the daughter of the minister, you don't have to take the words of the child seriously. "

" Believe in words and do what you do is what a gentleman does. "

is a sin~

12

Ten days later, the news of Gu Yiheng's serious illness broke the calm on the surface of the palace.

Five more days, even the most powerful imperial doctor in the palace was helpless.

The news that the prince was terminally ill was not allowed. Who was deliberately stirring the court so easily?

I was very anxious and went to the East Palace to see the prince.

Gu Yiheng was lying on the bed with a pale face. When he saw me, he asked everyone to go out and leave Wei Kun to serve him.

people were exposed, and Gu Yiheng waved to me with pride, "Xiao Mi, get closer.""

I walked up to the bed and lowered my voice and asked, "Why do you want to pretend to be sick? "

Gu Yiheng was stunned at first, and then stared at Wei Kun fiercely. Wei Kun looked innocently "I didn't say it."

Then he looked at me again and straightened up, "How did you know? "

" Your Highness was suddenly ill, so it was strange. "I moved a stool and sat down, "Your Highness has found out what, so he pretended to be sick? "

" The father will give us a wedding and joy. "Gu Yiheng did not reply to me, but threw a thunder.

I stood up in shock, "What? ""Pa" in conjunction with the sound of the stool falling to the ground.

"Your Highness must not be done," I sorted out my mind and began to make sense to Gu Yiheng, "If your Highness goes to ask for an order to marry, the emperor may be suspicious of you. You want to help the majority of your ministers and girls, so you don't have to take risks. "

" You, are you caring about me? "A trace of joy flashed in Gu Yiheng's eyes, "No, this is the best way I thought of. It took me a lot of energy to convince my father. By then, many problems will be solved. "

I was sweating in my heart when I heard this, and I knelt in front of Gu Yiheng with a plop, "Please think twice. "

Gu Yiheng was unmoved and decisively said: "The imperial edict for marriage will come down tomorrow. Due to the name of celebrating happiness, the wedding date is set for half a month. "

If my father and brother knew that I was given a marriage to the prince, they would definitely go to the palace to save me. Wouldn't it be confirmed that he had a treason?

Seeing that the prince was unmoved, I pulled out my hair and pressed it against his neck, "If your highness wants to force his daughter, then the daughter will have to offend him. "

Wei Kun drew his sword and pointed it straight at me. I asked, "Wei Kun, guess is your sword fast or my hairpin fast. "

Gu Yiheng's eyes showed a look of disappointment, and he looked at Wei Kun, "Put the sword away. "

reached out and took out a note under the bedding and handed it to me, "You know this handwriting. "

is the handwriting of the third brother.

Seeing that I had finished reading, Wei Kun turned around and took out a few hollow carved wooden bookmarks from the box and handed them on.

I looked at Gu Yiheng, and then looked at the letter paper and bookmarks. He nodded.

Then, with me, flattened the letter, and then arranged the bookmarks in turn. The third brother left me a message in the letter: "Listen, believe it. "

13

3 days after the wedding.

In order to save me, my father and brother rushed back to Kyoto and rushed to the Forbidden Palace at night.

The emperor ordered the imperial guard to kill his father and brother on the grounds that "the general had not received the imperial order and broke into the Forbidden Palace privately, and his crimes should be punished."

Rumors say that General Xiao drew his sword in front of him, denounced the emperor's incompetence and listed ten crimes.

front foot, the emperor just lost his life.

back foot, the father and brother were surrounded by the imperial guards who came to reinforce and shot him to death.

that night, Gu Shiqi, the king of Jin who had disappeared for many months, unexpectedly appeared.

. 6

I got the news. When I walked barefoot and walked away from the snow, the strong smell of blood mixed with endless dead air in the square outside the hall was spreading, and the white snow was dyed dark red by the sea of ​​corpses and blood.

The heads of my father and brother have also been cut off, and I fell into the snow.

There was chaos in the hall of Qinzheng, and Gu Shiqi was in charge of the overall situation.

He wore a red brocade gown, with a jade belt on his waist, and his hair was tied high, with a handsome and handsome man, and a handsome man.

The imperial guards led me to prison in front of Gu Shiqi. Surprise flashed in his eyes, but my complex palace outfits made him feel complicated.

"Since the princess Xiao Mi was a royal wife, he was not a daughter of Xiao, and the crime of his father and brother was unrelated. Send it back to the East Palace to serve the disease. ”

Gu Yiheng, who had been lingering in sick for a long time, learned that the Crown Princess's father and brother were rebelled. The emperor passed away and vomited a mouthful of blood. He actually followed his father.

In just three days, I was a bride, lost my father and brother, and became a widow.

When it was almost dawn, Gu Shiqi ordered people to take me to the bedroom where he used to live, and sent others away, leaving only me and him, "The East Palace has seen blood, please stay here for the time being. Have a few days off. When the emperor and the prince are buried, you go to the palace to kneel."

Before going out, he lowered his voice and said to me: "Your father and brother, I will bury you well, but you can't worship for the time being, I will fulfill my filial piety for you."

Gu Shiqi still looked like I knew before, but it seemed like I never knew him.

"Do you have anything to say to me?"

Gu Shiqi stared at me for a long time, with a complicated look, "Why do you want to marry the prince, power, or protect yourself?"

I approached him, "The same reason you approached me at the beginning."

14

I opened the door, and Gu Yiheng stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, following his father and three brothers.

While Gu Shiqi was not paying attention, I quickly flashed out.

Gu Yiheng pulled me over and protected me behind him, and ordered Guard Kun to take me away.

I shook my head and refused to say anything. "I want to hear what he said."

The third brother stepped forward, "Please rest assured, your prince, I will protect the princess and not hurt her at all."

I whispered in my third brother's ear, "I am not the princess, fake, fake, but a temporary measure."

Gu Yiheng listened to my words and said without looking back: "The heaven and earth and ancestors have worshipped, how can they be fake."

Gu Shiqi interrupted us angrily, "Don't act in front of me!"

The third brother attached And, "That's right, when are you still in the mood to flirt with each other."

I glared at my third brother, "I didn't."

Gu Yiheng nodded, "Brother has taught me a lesson."

Then he closed his emotions and said to Gu Shiqi: "What do you have to say?"

Gu Shiqi looked at his own guard who was controlled in the yard, "You have done such a big situation and waited for me to get the king and lose the enemy. What else can I say?"

15

Gu Shiqi's mother is the princess of the Uighurs.

He was only eight years old when the emperor passed away.

Because he had a son in his later years, the late emperor loved him very much. At the age of six, he enthroned him as King of Jin and gave him the fief closest to the capital.

The will of the will was even more bluntly stated that the King of Jin must be at least eighteen years old before he can leave the capital and become a vassal.

But before the death of the emperor, he breathed his last breath and sentenced his mother to death, and asked him to keep him in the name of the empress dowager in the future.

The Empress Dowager died, and the Queen took over the responsibility of taking care of him.

The emperor was determined to slaughter him, but Gu Shiqi was not a waste.

The bandits who robbed food and medicinal materials halfway, the doctor who was tampering with his father's medicine, and the guard who had lost his message... were all inseparable from him.

Behind him was the eldest prince who was not favored by the Turkic Khan, and what they planned was the same.

The emperor and his father had long suspected that there were spies dormant around them, but they were not sure who they were.

After all, over the years, relying on the empress doting and the queen's indulgence, Gu Shiqi grew up according to the standards of a playboy, looking unruly and rebellious all day long.

No one would have thought that he could be so tolerant at a young age.

He hid it so deeply that he deceived me.

It was not until Gu Shiqi left Kyoto by escaping marriage that the emperor began to doubt him.

During the period when Gu Shiqi disappeared, in addition to interfering in the war, he also secretly met his father.

He took advantage of the rift between the emperor and his father to add fuel to my life in the palace for the past few years, and provoked them from it, hoping to lead them to kill each other, and he likes to benefit from it.

The emperor's fear of his father is true, and it is true that his father is dissatisfied with the emperor.

But because of Gu Shiqi's appearance, and Gu Yiheng and the third brother mediated, they finally convinced the emperor and comforted his father and brother, and then discussed and formulated this plan to lead the emperor into the trap.

Gu Yiheng asked the emperor for reward, hoping that Gu Shiqi could be handed over to him for the treatment.

Gu Shiqi is determined to die, and talks a lot about my past with him, and deliberately speaks it in a tactful way, which is confusing.

"Jinsheng meets you, always in the bright place, the sun and the moon are bright, and never exceeds the rules." Gu Yiheng was very angry, "You use a woman's reputation as bait and incite me to kill you, it is not a gentleman who does it."

"What a gentleman?"

"What a gentleman?"

"What a gentleman?"

"You have something to ask for but don't ask for something to do, and do something to do but don't do something to do."

"You rely on your power to take her for yourself, but a gentleman?"

Gu Yiheng looked at the sparse moonlight leaking in from the narrow skylight, shining on Gu Shiqi's face, and for a moment he felt that they were a little similar.

But he is not him, and he doesn't want to be him either.

Half a year later, news of the death of the Crown Princess Xiao Mi was heard in the palace.

General Xiao was heartbroken and was distraught after his death. After being sick for many days, he asked to get rid of his armor and return to the field.

The three elder brothers all resigned from their military affairs and went home to serve the disease.

The day after leaving the palace, Gu Yiheng sent me all the way. In the long pavilion, he handed me a bag of golden leaves, "I met you here, and I will farewell to you today. Let's go and leave here. The mountains are high and the rivers are long. I hope you will be safe and stable. There will be a time for you later."

I weighed the bag, it was heavy, "This is a good deal. I wish you peace, good luck, and everything will be done."

Gu Yiheng smiled reluctantly, "It's a good idea, but I try my best to get what I want, I'm afraid I can't." When

left, the wind brought Gu Yiheng's words to me.

"Your Highness is reluctant to leave, why don't you try to keep it?"
