After the emperor figured it out, he felt a little guilty. He thought that he had done something for the little princess before. But he didn't know how long she had been suffering with faith and revenge for her mother. For the sake of father daughter relationship and not to embarrass him, I tried to find a way to make him misunderstand. This is really not easy.
The emperor was embarrassed to admit his mistake directly to his daughter, so he had to use the form of gift to express it euphemistically. He did not forget Qingqing and would not be estranged from his love. At the same time, he thought in his heart that he should firmly believe in Xin'er in the future, which is his and Qingqing's daughter, as well as the happy fruit of ten years of inheriting happiness.

when Xiao Qi stands in front of Gu Qingxin, looking at the bright smile, white teeth and bright eyes of the young man, she suddenly feels that time flies.
With a comfortable life, Xiao Qi's stature began to soar in nearly two years, and her thin body was gradually enriched. When she stood in front of her, the child who had been on her waist was about to grow on her shoulders. Influenced by the etiquette of poetry and calligraphy, it may be that he has been with the third emperor brother for a long time. Xiao Qi is full of scholarly and gentle style. Compared with Gu Minghui, a gentleman like jade, the straight young man with upright hair crown has two or three points of similarity in image and temperament.
Gu Qingxin can imagine that in a few years, the young man standing in front of her will also become a graceful and graceful figure.
"Sister Huang, you haven't come to see me for a long time. It seems that, as the third emperor brother said, if you have a husband, you don't want Xiao Qi. " This style lasted only a few minutes, and Xiaoqi immediately returned to the lively appearance of that year. Baqiao's old Gao, always unhappy, looked at Gu Qingxin and complained. It's just that the bright light from his obviously excited eyes betrays his emotion. Obviously, he is looking forward to the arrival of Gu Qingxin.
"Oh, it's the third brother who is stirring up dissension!" Gu Qingxin smiles and looks at Gu Minghui behind Xiao Qi, "brother Sanhuang, is this really what you said? It's very brave of you to say that to Xiao Qi. "
Gu Minghui was not afraid of Gu Qingxin's feigned angry face. He raised his lips like a spring breeze and formed a similar arc with his elegant clothes. His gentle voice was like a clear stream hitting a stone? The love between the couple of sanhuangmei and the general is well known to the people in the capital, but they have met either of you. With such a delicious general, it would be strange for the third imperial sister to remember who I was in the third prince's mansion. At that time, I would doubt whether general Xu really loved his wife. "
This words say, Gu Qingxin unexpectedly have nothing to say, can't deny oneself husband to her good.
"Brother Sanhuang, I haven't seen you for a few days. You are more eloquent, but I don't know if your knowledge has increased at the same time?"
"Huangmei said so, or we'll fight the last game?"
Gu Minghui said this, small seven in the side can't do anxious, if really let the emperor elder brother and the emperor elder sister fight, then he didn't have time to talk to the emperor elder sister.
"No, I'm here to see Xiao Qi today. I don't have time to fight with my brother. Besides, a famous teacher is a good apprentice, and Xiao Qi is also half of your apprentice. By testing Xiao Qi, you can know whether the level of emperor brother has improved or not. "
As soon as the words came out, Xiao Qi's eyes narrowed with a smile, and quickly pulled Gu Qingxin to his study.
Gu Qingxin looks back at Xu Mu helplessly.
"I said, Huangmei, General Xu is a living man in my house. Are you afraid that he will not be lost, or is it impossible to separate for a while without seeing you for a day? Xiao Qi hasn't seen you for a long time. Just follow him. I'll take Huang's brother-in-law for a walk and talk to him. "
Xu Mu nodded to Gu Qingxin, and then he followed the third prince.
Gu Minghui took Xu Mu around the prince's mansion and chatted with him. In his words, he talked about some recent events.
"When Princess de dies, the Queen's position must be in the bag of the virtuous princess. What do you think of the third prince?" Xu Mu suddenly asked, and his serious eyes looked at Gu Minghui, full of examination.
He didn't intend to get involved in the battle for the crown prince's position in the court, but the identity of Xin'er meant that they must be involved in it. The emperor is still strong now, and he doesn't have the right crown prince. However, once the virtuous imperial concubine ascends the post, the third crown prince is the right crown prince of the east palace. The establishment of the Queen's position means the establishment of the crown prince. That's why the Queen's position is only competent by a virtuous imperial concubine, but the court is still in a turbulent situation, which is directly related to the fact that the future crown prince's position will not be determined easily.
Gu Minghui was surprised when Xu Mu asked this question, but when he thought about it, he knew that it was because Gu fell in love with him that he asked, which showed that he really cared about the little princess, and that Xu Mu trusted him when he asked so frankly. Gu Minghui knows that now is an answer for him. No matter what he says, Xu Mu will be willing to believe it, and he has never thought of lying or concealing it.
But this matter is too important, he must use a very solemn expression, slowly, sonorous voice or ring out, "I, Gu Minghui, never want to ascend that position, that for me, has always been a burden rather than an honor, in the past, now and in the future!"Gu Minghui turns around and looks at Xu Mu seriously.
Xu Mu looked deeply, as if he wanted to see a person's heart from his eyes.
After a long time, he said, "well, I hope you don't change your original intention all the time."
"As long as I'm alive, it won't change." Gu Minghui spoke with ease, but his eyes were deep and firm.
After a while, it seemed that the atmosphere was a little too depressing and solemn. Gu Minghui said with a smile, "in fact, if it was the third imperial sister, she would not have asked me so directly. When I took over Xiao Qi from her two years ago, everything was doomed. There are too many things in the world to pursue, such as poetic and picturesque scenery. The pleasure of life is what one wants. Fame and wealth are too complicated and troublesome. Why work so hard? "
Until a long time later, Xu Mu still remembers this time when his face was light, and his whole body was detached and thorough, just like an expert in the world, and he was about to take advantage of the wind to go back. His upright trunk, such as jade, really made people feel incomparably comfortable and envious.
General Xu, as a martial arts man who did not understand ink in the eyes of the world, thought at that time that this was the real style of literati, the real gentleman like jade!
no one would have thought that even in such an afternoon, the direction of the future was decided by a short dialogue between two people.
When Xu Mu conveyed Gu Minghui's meaning to his wife, Gu Qingxin just thought for a while, and then did not make a sound.
"Can we believe what the third prince said, Xin'er?"
"You can believe it if you have seven or eight points of confidence." Gu Qingxin nodded, and then said, "I saw a lot of books in Xiao Qi's study, some about political theory and governing the country, as well as the art of war. The third emperor brother is good at prose, CI and Fu, but he doesn't understand anything else. I heard that in addition to the third emperor brother's personal guidance, he invited some famous old men to teach Xiao Qi, and even invited people to live in his house Everyone is settled. "
"No wonder, he told me that when he took Xiaoqi away from you, everything was doomed. If he really didn't want to be in that position, it would make sense."
"No," Gu Qingxin shook his head. "We need to see it again at that time. Sometimes when we do something, we can't see our own will. Even if we don't want to do it, we may have to do it under the threat of the situation. When the real thing comes, you can see how firm the heart of the third brother is. "
With that, Gu sighed, "the father, the prince, the son and the heir are not many. Among these princes, the third brother, I don't want him to become something I can't understand one day."
Xu Mu also nodded. Today, the emperor does not have many children. There are only three princesses in all. There are seven princes in name, and the youngest is Xiao Qi. But in fact, there are five alive now. One of the other two died early and the other drowned in childhood. The oldest prince, the eldest, is 21 years old, while the youngest, the youngest, is only nine years old. Since then, no news has been heard of the emperor's heir.
Nine years ago, there was no news of the emperor's heir? There's something wrong with it. The emperor is not old at all in his early 40s. If he is lucky enough to have a concubine, how can he be childless and childless?
When Xu Mu thought of the meaning behind this problem, he suddenly burst into a cold sweat. Either someone in the palace covered the sky with one hand, or the emperor's own problem. However, the dragon's body is expensive. You should be careful when eating and drinking. How can there be a problem?
"Husband, what's the matter with you?" Gu Qingxin detects something wrong with Xu mu.
Xu Mu looked at her and said, "Xin'er, after Xiao Qi, didn't my father and Emperor spread the news of the emperor's descendants?"
"Yes, what's the matter? Xiao Qi is the youngest son of his father."
"But it's not normal. My father is in his prime now. How can he have no children? Xiao Qidu is nine years old, and he is only ten years old. In these years, his father has not accepted new people into the palace. How can there be no news of the emperor's heir? "
