famous eldest daughter

Chapter 236 Secret News
Missing each other when we don't see each other, mourning is too powerful when we meet.

The air was filled with a breathless suffocation, and the candles nearby burst into flames, making a crackling sound. Gu Yuqing, who had been silent for a long time, had her eyelashes trembling slightly, and looked at Gu Zhen, holding his hand on the table.

Gu Zhen's fingers were long and slender, and the fingertips were warm, which made Gu Yuqing inexplicably at ease.

"Father, my brother must be alive. We must find him back." Gu Yuqing's eyes shone with determination and unshakable luster.

Gu Zhen's heart moved and a smile appeared on his lips.

Did he pretend to be addicted to cultivating immortals all these years and get used to that unreal life?Why is he, a strong man, even worse than his own daughter.

In this case, shouldn't he, as a father, comfort his daughter?

This daughter, after all, was forced by herself to be too mature, too strong, and so strong that it makes people feel distressed.

Hiding the tears in his eyes, Gu Zhen held Gu Yuqing's small white hands in his warm palms and said with the same firm words: "Definitely!"

A smile appeared on Gu Yuqing's lips.

Wanting to ask again about the doubts that had been lingering in his heart for a long time, Gu Zhen glanced out of the window that was already white, stood up with a smile, patted Gu Yuqing's head, and said softly: "You have stayed up all night, go back to sleep, the days are long, When you wake up and find out what you want to know, we’ll talk about it.”

Gu Yuqing was about to refuse, but when he saw the heavy green color in Gu Zhen's eyes, he swallowed the words that slipped to his lips, nodded and stood up with a smile, "Father, you should also have a good rest."

After bidding farewell to Gu Zhen and coming out of the study, Ji Xiang Ruyi immediately greeted him.

Since her rebirth, Gu Yuqing has been to this study several times, but only this time, when she left, her steps were as light as if she was about to fly.

Finally, the great revenge was avenged, and my father did not die together with Prince Duan like he did in the previous life.

The heavy stone in his heart was removed. In the summer morning, the sun was warm. Gu Yuqing took a deep breath greedily and felt that the air was filled with a sweet taste like honey.

From then on, she was able to work side by side with her father to find her biological brother. Although her mother was gone, she could still be with her brother and his father, which she already felt was a great happiness.

Back at Tongyuan, Jixiang Ruyi helped Gu Yuqing wash up. After breakfast, she changed into pajamas to catch up on her sleep.

After what happened last night, I originally thought I would be tossing and turning on the bed like a pancake, but unexpectedly, I closed my eyes as soon as I touched the pillow.

Beside the pillow, a jade pendant exuded a faint light blue luster, which was almost invisible by the scattered sunlight.

Gu Yuqing was sleeping peacefully in this room, but in the palace, the Queen Mother's bedroom was gloomy and sad.

In just one night, this most graceful and luxurious woman in Kyoto seemed to have aged more than ten years. The dense fine lines at the corners of her eyes were intertwined and overlapped. As her fine eyelashes trembled, the fine lines seemed to come alive.

She took a long breath, but couldn't sigh out. The breath traveled back and forth in her internal organs, making her chest hurt from holding it in.

"What are you going to do with him?" the Queen Mother's hoarse voice sounded, but she did not raise her eyes to look at the Emperor sitting beside the bed. Her thin eyelashes drooped, casting a shadow under her eyes, making it difficult for people to see her clearly. look.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, his lips pursed into a thin line as resolute as iron, and he sighed in his heart and said: "He is my brother after all, and he is connected by flesh and blood..."

The Queen Mother turned her wrist bracelet and paused. After her eyelashes trembled violently, she raised her eyes and looked at the Emperor. Those phoenix eyes were filled with great sorrow, like a pool of stagnant water.

"You don't need to take care of the Ai family. He is so ambitious that he killed his mother and forced her to marry him. He has lost his humanity a long time ago." The Queen Mother said these words as if she had exhausted all her life's energy.

There was a dark light in the emperor's eyes, and he looked at the queen mother calmly, examined her for a moment, and said: "But he is the queen mother's biological child after all. If nothing else, I can't hurt the queen mother's heart."

A forced smile appeared on the Queen Mother's lips, "Heart? The Ai family's heart has long been poisoned by their bag of poison!"

The youngest son, who has been hurt for most of his life, actually asked his princess to poison her tea.

"Just do everything according to the rules!"

After saying this, the Queen Mother seemed to have no strength to hold on anymore, and slowly closed her eyes. The sunlight penetrated through the window screen and shone on her haggard face, adding a bit of light to the lifeless paleness, but this light was only at this point. The lifeless face looked particularly abrupt.

The Emperor stared at the Queen Mother for a long time. He let out a breath of relief that was hanging in his heart. He stood up and left quietly. When he went out, he did not forget to tell the maid waiting beside him, "Serve the Queen Mother carefully. If anything happens, call me in the imperial study room at any time." .”

Listening to the Emperor's footsteps getting further away, the Queen Mother's eyelashes trembled slightly, her closed eyes slowly opened, and she looked blankly at the dazzling light outside the window, her thoughts drifting to decades ago.

At that time, she was still a queen in her prime, with two princes under her knees.

It was also a summer afternoon, and the sunlight was as bright as the one outside the window, or even stronger.

At that time, she was pregnant with her third child for more than six months. She made mung bean soup to relieve the heat in the small kitchen. Remembering the emperor's hard work day and night, she helped the palace maid and held up the milky white porcelain bowl filled with mung bean soup. Jar, go to the Imperial Study Room.

In the summer afternoon, everything was scorched by the sun above our heads, and cicadas kept chirping on the tall trees, which was annoying.

The little eunuch standing guard outside the royal study was drowsy and kept pecking at the rice.

When she heard the sound of the emperor discussing matters with others in the study, she stopped and asked someone to move a chair from a side hall, and sat in the corridor to wait.

From time to time, noisy sounds could be heard in the imperial study. Because the voices were kept low, she could only hear mumbling sounds, but she couldn't hear them clearly.

Suddenly, a woman's shrill scream came from inside. She was so startled that her fingers trembled and she dropped the cup of herbal tea she was holding in her hand. Her eyes fell towards the door of the royal study.

At this time, the sleepy little eunuch was also frightened awake by the scream like a fierce ghost. When he opened his eyes, he saw her sitting opposite him, and he was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt down.

She just stretched out her hand to her mouth to make a silence gesture to prevent him from making a sound. She still sat on the chair and listened to the sounds in the room.

"Your Majesty, you promised me that as long as I accomplish that task for you, you will let my son take charge of the East Palace." The woman's voice was heartbroken, with a sad cry.

After fighting for most of her life, she could immediately tell that it was just the Emperor's cousin, Concubine Tong, who was speaking.

Concubine Tong has only one son, who is only a month or two younger than her eldest son.

At this time, they were talking about such things in the house. How could she not frown and listen carefully? She held her breath and even her heartbeat seemed to be shocked by this topic.
