Dressed as a vicious step-sister

In less than a day, the news of Shuangye Pavilion's investigation was complete, and it was all fed back to Emperor Xiaolian.

When Emperor Xiaolian received the secret report, his expression was extremely gloomy, just like when a storm is approaching, black clouds are pressing down on the city to destroy it.

The second son is already in his trap and ready to cook at any time. Unexpectedly, the third son, who looks like a fool, unexpectedly got the location of the treasure one step ahead of him, and has not taken the initiative to report it.

He even asked to be named king, but he still agreed, which has to be said to be shooting himself in the foot.

Although Emperor Xiaolian had no big achievements in recent years, he had no major mistakes. Half of the princes under his knees had grown up and half had not yet reached the crown.

He can be said to have broken his heart.

In his plan, King Qin must be the thorn in the eyes of all the princes. Later, King Qin became too popular and had to be suppressed.

I thought that King Qin's example would make all the princes obedient.

Unexpectedly, it fueled the ambition of the third child.

This was beyond his expectation.

Emperor Xiaolian looked at the news of Shuangye Pavilion, half believed it, and half feared it.

Finally, Emperor Xiaolian decided to start punishing the youngest Gu Qinghua.

So the fourth prince Gu Qingtao was summoned.

Ask him to secretly investigate Gu Qinghua's private accounts, without explicitly saying that Gu Qinghua has obtained the treasure, but only to investigate corruption.

When Gu Qingtao received the news, he, who was originally pure-hearted and careless about government affairs, was also surprised.

The third brother should not be so stupid. Although he has collected a lot of money in the past few years, he has a degree. Why did the emperor deal with him when he said he would deal with him?

This Gu Qingtao couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis. The matter of the second brother has not passed, and now it is finally the turn of the third brother. The fourth eldest, he became inexplicably uneasy.

A feeling of sadness that the rabbit died and the fox came to my heart.

After that, it really didn't come out for a few days.

Gu Qingtao didn't find anything, and even if he found something, it was about trivial things. His performance was as mediocre as it was, which perfectly explained how incompetent he was.

Unlike Gu Qingzheng's outstanding ability, and Gu Qinghua's slightly off-the-wall ability, Gu Qingtao really doesn't have much talent.

Even if there is, I dare not show it.

Thus, Emperor Xiaolian received a well-regulated memorial, which was the result of Gu Qingtao's investigation.

Emperor Xiaolian, who was watching, couldn't help but question whether the fourth child was doing things with his heart?

The content of the memorial was impeccable, so Gu Qingtao did it.

It's just that he went directly to Gu Qingzheng's where he said it was a gathering of brothers, but he was actually asking for help, so this memorial was completely taught by Gu Qingzheng.

The content is really... ordinary.

Emperor Xiaolian was so angry that he dropped the memorial and realized the incompetence of this son for the first time.

After that, he didn't let the princes investigate by themselves, but sent his cronies to investigate. This cronies had been keeping an eye on Lu Qingzheng, but he had to be transferred and sent others to look at Lu Qingzheng.

Soon this confidant got a real message and passed it on.

This made Emperor Xiaolian very satisfied.

It's just that his mood is getting worse and worse. His son is out of his control, which makes him restless. He hasn't been able to sleep well in the past few days, let alone so many troubles.

Emperor Xiaolian got the evidence of Gu Qinghua's crime, so he wanted to write a criminal summons immediately, and abolished Gu Qinghua.

Unexpectedly, Gu Qinghua's mother concubine, Rong Guifei appeared.

Concubine Rong's elder brother is Xiaoyaohou who is in charge of [-] soldiers. He is now guarding the frontier and has not seen him for many years, but he loves his only sister very much.

When Emperor Xiaolian saw Concubine Rong Gui, he stopped writing, and the relationship of interests began to become more and more complicated.

That's right, the influence of the third child's family still has to be considered.

Now he can only secretly make the third child spit out the treasure, and he can let the past go, but the position of the East Palace, the third child has no chance.

No, it was never these princes, only that child's!

Thinking of the eight-year-old son calling his father sweetly at his knees, although he was domineering and self-willed, as long as he was taught well, he would be able to come back straight. This was the first time that Emperor Xiaolian showed a loving smile.

"Aifei, what wind brought you here?"

Emperor Xiaolian showed a polite and alienated smile.

Concubine Rong also walked over with a smile, but she also walked over with a cup of good Longjing tea.

Husband and wife are really like husband and wife.

And Gu Qinghua, who had swaggered and swaggered back to the fiefdom.

After ordering three carts of gold, silver and jewelry, he also discovered many ancient books, which were not invaluable, and happened to appear in his fiefdom.

That is your own thing.

But Gu Qinghua was not a fool, he received a letter from his mother and concubine, reminding him that his father had noticed him.

Gu Qinghua immediately hid the treasure. As long as it is not found, the rest will not be regarded as evidence. As long as his natal family does not fall, his father will not really dare to dismiss him and kill him.

Gu Qinghua knew very well how his father came to the throne in the first place. This is a man who relies on a woman's family for his position. Moreover, in the past 300 years, the power of the harem has become extremely powerful to this generation, even yin and yang have been reversed.

Gu Qinghua is still very clear.

The mother and concubine of the second brother, Gu Qingzheng, used to be a big family with military power, but unfortunately they have almost been pulled out by the father, and that big family also handed over the military power themselves in order to keep themselves.

Sure enough, he killed the donkey when he unloaded the mill.

Gu Qinghua said in a gloomy tone: "However you dealt with Second Emperor Brother back then, don't even think about using the same method to deal with me, Gu Qinghua!!!"

"Since you don't think of the love between father and son, don't blame me for being ruthless!!"

At this moment.

Gu Qinghua felt more and more that the letter from his mother and concubine was right to remind him that as long as the treasure was well hidden, it reminded him not to trick his family, as long as he kept two things in place, his father would not be able to blatantly deal with him.

In this way, the father and son fought together.

On the contrary, the pressure on Gu Qingzheng's side has been reduced a lot, and the seeds that were originally weak have gradually become plump.

The people below saw that he was once a favored prince, and they didn't dare to neglect him, and some people even began to fawn on Gu Qingzheng again.

Similarly, Gu Zheng's efforts to suppress the bandits were also much weaker. The city generals who could not be hired before, now bravely helped him find the way and kill the bandits.

From time to time, he still received letters from his fiancée, and Zhu Yuyan took care of him all the time.

Gu Zheng was also inquiring about his sister, but he finally stopped after receiving a letter from Gu Nian.

Prince Qin's mansion is gradually recovering.

After getting this news.

Gu Nian can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She is now in Xue's residence, a place called Matang Town.

Here are all her people.

The people who were left behind under the leadership of Xue have already lived in Matang Town.

On this day, Xue came to the mansion and reported the news.

Master, the prince and the eldest son are already safe, and there is a tendency to move up at any time.Xue truthfully reported.

Gu Nian was leaning against the window, shaking the teacup in his hand so that every time the tea would be spilled, it would be taken back by the rim of the cup. Xue's eyelids jumped when he watched the tea, and his obsessive-compulsive disorder was deepening.

Gu Nian looked at her, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Huang needs my father, so naturally he will be mobilized to deal with another son."

After hearing this, Xue showed a contemptuous expression towards the emperor, which was very blatant.

Gu Nian watched her on the surface with great interest.

"Xue, Grandpa Huang's throne is held by women, while Jiangshan is still guarded by his son's natal family, and his son's political achievements."

"You talk about the throne, he is still sitting so stable and contented."

Xue just said politely: "Emperor Xiaolian married two powerful families at the beginning, but it spread all over the world. At that time, he was still the prince's current sage, but he crushed the prince of the same period."

"That's because he has the ability, but, this woman can still be tried and tested repeatedly at a young age." Gu Nian seemed to be mocking and careless.

"No matter how deep the affection is, it will never be able to suppress the insincerity, be consumed by suspicion, and be taught to be a person by reality."

Xue Shen took it for granted, she felt that the Princess really knew Emperor Xiaolian too well.

Although he became the emperor, in the final analysis, it was the Phoenix royal family who relied on women to ascend to power. After ascending to power, although he was diligent and famous in the prosperous age, it was all earned by his son for him.

The world only knows His Majesty, so all credit goes to His Majesty.

Now that the bloody reality is exposed, Ming Jun's face has become so hypocritical.

Xue Bian said: "Since the master's father was publicly promoted and secretly demoted, those villains and treacherous people who were ruled by your father have begun to raise their heads again."

"That's right, my father and king have done so much, and it's not like letting go of the grind." Gu Nian shook his head and said.

"Then master, our goal has been achieved, what should we do next?"

Gu Nian thought about it for a while, and felt that it was not enough. Gu Qinghua's card was a stable one. As long as Xiaoyaohou didn't make mistakes, he would be fine.

And she didn't want to touch the third uncle, but he was unlucky enough to recognize the grandfather's character as clearly as herself in advance, so he was not reconciled, so he took the initiative to attack the grandfather by surprise.

But it was far from enough, she had to make Gu Qinghua play a bigger role.

Think here.

Gu Nian beckoned Xue over.

Xue leaned over and quickly heard the master's order.

An imperial order was issued to Gu Qinghua, and it was all rewards.

Then give the marriage of Cheng Xian, the champion of the new discipline, and Gu Qingya, the princess of Anqing.

The two imperial decrees appease Concubine Rong Gui and stabilize Xiaoyaohou in the frontier.

It was the first time that Emperor Xiaolian tasted the pain of being hit on the foot by the power he promoted. It was like a fishbone stuck in his throat, unable to spit it out, and unable to get down, the incomparable pain hit him.

It's just that something even more exciting happened to him immediately.

The sixteenth prince suddenly had a high fever and urgently needed Bupleurum ginseng to reduce the fever, but the most effective one happened to be given to Gu Qinghua.

Other medicines didn't work too well.

Emperor Xiaolian suffered from insomnia that night. Regardless of his face, he wrote a secret order to recall Bupleurum ginseng.

Although this matter was a secret call, it made Gu Qinghua see another reality and an opportunity.

No matter how good you hide, there are times when you expose.

When Gu Qinghua got the news, he showed an incomparably sarcastic laugh, laughing presumptuously and insanely.

He always thought that he was not taken seriously because of his lack of ability, not because of his mother's family, but because the second brother stole his father's attention and expectations.

Looking at it now, he, Gu Qinghua, was the same as Gu Qingzheng. He was not favored, and he was a son who was pulled up to be a thorn in his side.

Far inferior to that little imperial brother who was only eight years old!A little brother with no abilities or even strong parents, because of a doting, he has to enjoy his father's love, everything about his father, and even the country has to be planned for him.

Just wait for the sixteenth brother to grow up! !

He refuses to accept it! ! !
