Chapter 235
Propping her elbows on the table and supporting her chin with her hands, Gu Yuqing turned her head and looked at Gu Zhen, her eyes filled with tears. Just as her heart was moved when she heard Gu Zhen suddenly ask such a question, Gu Yuqing blurted out, "Why should I hate my father?"

Knowing that during these days when she thought she was lonely and helpless, her father had actually been silently and secretly guarding her, Gu Yuqing's heart was as sweet as if she had been sweetened.

It turns out that she is never alone.

The fine lines at the corners of Gu Zhen's eyes moved slightly, and a helpless but self-blaming wry smile appeared on his lips: "As a father, I am really not a good father. I know how much you need me, but I can't give you a single bit..."

Gu Zhen's eyes were full of guilt, and he even dared not look at Gu Yuqing.

However, Gu Yuqing's eyes flashed with tears, and she was brilliantly illuminated by the candlelight. She immediately stopped and said: "My father refused to show up, naturally because he was afraid that I would be hurt. Ah Qing understood it and knew that his father was always protecting me. Looking at Ah Qing, Ah Qing is extremely happy. Father, please stop blaming yourself. If your father is like this, Ah Qing will also feel sad."

For the first time, Gu Yuqing didn't care how ugly she was when she cried and talked. She cried, laughed and talked like a fool.

"Prince Duan is so powerful, and how come A Qing doesn't know that his father has been holding back for a long time to avenge his grandfather's family, and even deceived A Qing..." Mentioning Gu Zhen's indulgence in seeking immortality, Gu Yuqing cried and laughed: "Aqing really thought that my father was really going to be a Taoist priest."

There were also hot tears in Gu Zhen's eyes, but his hand hanging under the table was clenched into a fist to prevent the tears from rolling down.

How unbecoming a father is to cry in front of his children.

After taking a breath, the father and daughter sat opposite each other and were silent for a moment. Gu Yuqing looked at Gu Zhen with admiration with eyes like obsidian, and asked: "My father has already made plans with His Majesty about tonight's matter. I just have to wait." Put the prince into the urn."

Put aside that heavy topic that cannot be mentioned at all.

Biological father and daughter, connected by blood, there are some things that don’t need to be said at all.

Gu Zhen smiled and said, "I can't hide anything from you!" There was doting on his beloved daughter in his eyes, but he didn't mention a word about how he conspired with the emperor in today's situation.

The outcome has been decided, and Gu Yuqing doesn't want to dwell on the reasons. What's more, it is a matter decided by the emperor himself. If her father doesn't tell her, she can't ask.

As for why the commander of the Forbidden Army pretended to surrender to Prince Duan, Gu Yuqing guessed that it was probably because the emperor wanted to expose Prince Duan's true face to others more thoroughly.

This emperor is still hot after all!
There were too many things to say, and all kinds of doubts swirled in my mind for a while, and Gu Yuqing couldn't pick out the priorities, so he just spit out the words that came to his throat, and asked, "Did father already know about Gu Yuhe? "

The topic changed too suddenly. When these three words were heard, Gu Zhen's doting face suddenly became frosty. He was silent for a moment and said: "Your mother and I have known for a long time that she is not of my Gu family's blood, but Duan." The prince acted like a fool and sent the child here under false pretenses, but he never thought that your mother would die in her hands. Your mother always treated her as if she were her own child."

Mentioning his beloved wife who died young, the muscles in the corners of Gu Zhen's eyes twitched violently, and his voice became choked with sobs. It was a pain in his heart that could never be erased, repaired or even slowed down with the passage of time.

Every time I think of it, the pain is heartbreaking and bloody.

The person he regarded as his biological daughter was actually the murderer of his wife and children. If Gu Yuhe had not said this himself, he would not have believed it.

When Gu Yuqing stole the documents from Prince Duan's residence and rushed to the east courtyard where Gu Yuhe was to question him, he was sitting on the roof of the east courtyard, silently observing the few Xiao Yu sent to Gu Yuqing's side. The secret guard who protects her.

He was even thinking in his mind that it would be great if his daughter really married this seemingly uneducated prince.

After all, on the night Prince Duan assassinated Gu Yuqing, he protected her with his life. Afterwards, he quietly added a secret guard to protect her, which can be described as careful.

Immediately afterwards, he heard Gu Yuhe's frantic voice.

At that moment, he wanted to jump off the roof and strangle Gu Yuhe to death.

The wife he loved so much was killed by such despicable means. The entire Gusu family was killed by the same person.

God knows what kind of strength he used to restrain his anger.

Under the candlelight, his heroic face exuded a chilling edge.

Gu Yuqing's heart twitched when she saw the lingering pain on her father's face.

However, she knew that this was not the time for father and daughter to hold each other's arms and cry. Somewhere far away, there was another biological brother waiting for her to find.

"What about my younger brother? Does my father know where my younger brother is?"

Gu Zhen shook his head seriously, his eyes filled with sadness, "I have been conducting overt and covert investigations over the years, but there is no news about him. Maybe..."

Knowing what his father was going to say next, Gu Yuqing hurriedly stopped him, "No, my brother is still alive. He is still alive in a corner, waiting for us to find him. Father, don't be discouraged."

She was really afraid of hearing such words from her father.

What's more, Shenyu said that his brother is in peace, what Shenyu said must be true, it must be!

However, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but feel sad after hearing from her father that her father didn't know the whereabouts of her younger brother.

Seeing what her daughter said so firmly, Gu Zhen's eyes moved slightly, his voice choked up, and he said, "That's right, your brother must be waiting for us to find him."

"Prince Duan did all these things. He may know the whereabouts of his younger brother." The light in Gu Yuqing's eyes moved slightly, and she reminded Gu Zhen with a glimmer of hope.

Gu Zhen shook his head firmly, "He doesn't know!" Gu Zhen gritted his teeth when he mentioned Prince Duan.

Before returning to Chinanhou Mansion, he had already been to Tianlao once.

The son who had been thinking about him for more than ten years finally had the opportunity to interrogate his enemy, so he naturally wanted to torture him immediately.

"He only said that he didn't even see the child, and the midwife just threw him into the forest."

Gu Zhen is still confident that Prince Duan's words definitely did not lie to him.

In swaddling clothes, a newly born baby will definitely die if God does not provide for the blessing of someone passing by and taking him in.

As Gu Zhen's violently trembling voice sounded, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes widened, and hot tears fell down. Her heart seemed to be pinched, and she couldn't breathe because of the pain. Come.

No wonder her father had such thoughts. If Shenyu hadn't firmly told her that her brother was still alive, she would have thought that her brother was no longer alive.
