A few days later, at this family banquet, the princess and the two sisters-in-law chatted very speculatively, and Yang Anyuan and Li Hao, in addition to marveling at the grandeur of the princess's mansion, kept toasting me during the banquet, and it can be seen that they saw that I and the princess were in love, and the princess was so gentle and virtuous, they were happy for me.

It's just that I seem to be drinking a lot, but they seem to be getting drunk. I hurriedly asked people to replace the wine and replace it with a cup of hangover tea, lest they really get drunk and have to bother to serve the sisters-in-law after they go back.

At the end of the banquet, I personally sent my brothers and sisters-in-law out of the princess's mansion, and the princess also sent a carriage to send them home. Seeing that it was still early, I turned around and went back to the princess's mansion, and thought of going around the back garden.

After you have eaten and drunk, it is time to go for a walk in the back garden to dissipate the accumulated food in your stomach.

This is one of the few rules that the princess set for me, sometimes she will ask me to take off my shoes and walk on the smooth pebbles, at first I feel a little uncomfortable, and the soles of my feet will hurt a little, but after a few days, I will start to feel refreshed every day.

The reason why the princess set such rules for me seems to be because I had a sudden high fever that day, when she checked my pulse, she seemed to find that I had a hidden disease, since a few years ago I fell into the water and was rescued ashore, every year I have some problems in my body, either high fever or back discomfort, not ten days and half a month of rest to see better.

In the past, no one loved anyone, so I had to get by, and now I have a princess, she is so beautiful, my food, clothing, housing, transportation, physical fitness, and the size of the affairs in the house are all dispatched and distributed by the princess alone, and I almost have no worries.

It is said that outside the male lead, inside the female lead, I married such a beautiful, capable and virtuous daughter-in-law, how do you look at it, I took a big advantage, right?!

I looked at the red, white and yellow carp swimming freely in the pond, crouching on the guardrail, and couldn't help but sigh:

"If I didn't have the princess by my side, how would I live in the future?"

In my ears, the sound of silver bells rang, I knew that it was my daughter-in-law who came, I smiled and watched her walk towards me, followed by the little girl Ziyu.

I took the princess's hand, and I smiled on my face, and she also smiled, took a cup of tea from Ziyu and handed it to me, saying:

"What are you talking about? This is your tea, an anti-hangover!"

Although I asked the two brothers to serve wine and tea during the banquet, I didn't feel that I was drunk, so I didn't drink it, but I didn't expect to be seen by her.

"I'm not drunk, because you said that you should drink in moderation, and you are not allowed to get drunk!"

Even so, the hand has already gone to pick up the cup of hangover tea.

The princess smiled slightly and asked rhetorically:

"What, do you think I'm strict with you?"

I hurriedly shook my head, as if I was afraid that the princess would not understand my mind, and explained:

"I like you to control me, I want you to control me, it's better to do this, take care of me for the rest of my life!"

The princess's face was slightly red, and she looked lazy about me, but the corners of her mouth couldn't hide the smile.

Ziyu beside him couldn't stand it anymore, so he hurriedly shook his soul and said:

"Master Pony, can you not talk like that...... Isn't it numb?"

I don't know why the princess likes this kid, although he looks personable and has some talent, but this thin body and bones, coupled with some weak personality, how can he protect Her Royal Highness the princess?

"Hehe, girl, when you get married, you'll know!"

Ziyu immediately heard the joke in my tone, stomped her feet angrily, glared at me, and hurriedly hid behind the princess, complained to the princess, and said:

"Look, princess, donkey...... He's going to bully me!"

The princess hid her face and smiled, but pretended to be strict, although the words were addressed to me, but this reason was spoken to me and Ziyu together, and said:

"Alright, alright, how old are you, stop messing around. ”

I laughed but didn't say anything, and Ziyu didn't want to embarrass the princess, so she snorted and said:

"There are a lot of adults in this girl, so I won't bother with you!"

After saying that, he gave the princess a blessing and walked away.

Yo, it's really the princess who □□ it, and what she said is so similar to what the princess said.

"Why, do you still hate the fact that she scared you that night?"

The princess later learned from Ziyu what happened that night, although Ziyu knew that her mistakes could be corrected, and I also pleaded with the princess, but the princess still punished her with a small punishment, and the princess said: There are no rules.

"I'm so careful!"

I didn't really think about that, I just thought about what I could do for the princess and how I could protect her.

On that day, the princess sued me, and the obsession and resentment hidden deep in her heart were that she wanted to find out the truth about the prince's rebellion.

I have never seen the princess show such a painful and unwilling expression, she grabbed my cuffs and said to me: she can't forgive, no matter what, the prince's brother was killed, and those who killed him are still alive and well.

The prince's brother was wronged, she must find out the truth, so that those who have harmed him can get the punishment they deserve!

I saw the reluctance and resentment in her eyes, and I could understand the grief of her loved ones being framed to death and being powerless, but I could not bear the pain and despair of losing her loved ones on her behalf.

Xiao Lang, the abolished prince of the year, was indeed wronged, he was made a prince since he was a child, and the emperor also valued him very much, and the prince was also quite virtuous, Yunwen Yunwu, with unique eyes, very assertive, and able to judge major things. If he didn't go on a business trip, he would definitely be able to become a promising king of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the future.

The throne will be his, and it is unwarranted to say that he is treasoning.

The prince was indeed killed, and there are only a few strokes in the history books, saying that the prince led the army to attack the imperial city to kill the king and rebel, but he was defeated and captured, and finally died by the emperor in prison.

That year was the twenty-third year of the emperor's reign in Jing'an, that is, seven years ago, and I was only thirteen years old at that time.

That was the beginning and end of the prince's conspiracy law announced by the imperial court, but what I know is a completely different version, His Royal Highness the prince did lead troops to attack the imperial city, but it was not to kill the monarch and rebel, but to save the emperor and quell the rebellion. And the prince did not die in prison, but under the imperial city, he was persecuted and wronged, the prince was full of grief and indignation, and finally drew his sword and killed himself!

And these were all things that I had unintentionally told of by hiding in the attic with Gao Wei and listening to my uncle and an unknown visitor.

At that time, Gao Wei and I were bent on serving the country, and we also highly respected the virtuous prince.

Since then, I have been thinking about who is the real murderer of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......

Later, as I grew up, I became more aware of the power tilting and intrigue of the imperial court, and I began to understand and understand that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself who really harmed the prince, and this qiē was because he was too virtuous and assertive.

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

The crown prince Xiao Lang knew that if he wanted to be a real emperor in the future and take the imperial power into his hands, he must take back the power from the hands of the scholar clan lords who have been prosperous for hundreds of years and no longer be restrained by them. The Keshi clan gate valve tree has deep roots, and it is extremely difficult to eradicate them.

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince met a strategist, this person was Cui Tingyou, who was born in a cold family, and he strongly advocated that the prince should reuse and cultivate the scholars of the Han family, and become a force against the gate lords of the Shi clan.

The foundation of the scholars of the Han family is still shallow, and the power of the gate lords of the scholar clan is not as deep-rooted, so once it is reused by the prince, he will do his best to support the prince and become a sharp sword in the hands of the prince to balance the gate lords of the scholar clan.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a unique vision, he recognized Cui Tingyou's proposition, and began to cultivate and reuse some officials from poor families in the court, but this qiē had just begun, and it had already made it difficult for the scholars to sleep.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's move is not to eradicate the gate lord clan? He is still only the crown prince and can still be restrained, if he becomes the emperor in the future, how can there be a place for the children of our scholar clan to settle down?

The result can be imagined......

After the death of His Royal Highness the Prince, the poor scholars he had carefully promoted and cultivated, like Cui Tingyou, were raided and destroyed, like Yixian, there were many people who were demoted and even dismissed, but because of this rebellion, there were thousands of innocent people who were implicated and killed.

Since then, the scholars of the Han family have been in a slump, and the gate lords of the scholars have become more and more arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant.

The reuse of the children of the Hanmen clan is the most important part of the return of imperial power to the central government in the future, and it can be said to be the general trend in the future. After hundreds of years of precipitation and accumulation, the gate lord clan has long become a hidden danger that has existed in this empire for a long time, and if you want to strengthen the Northern Wei Dynasty, you must first solve this hidden danger.

It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used too mild medicine for this hidden danger back then, and to treat such a vicious disease, you need to use thunderous means and quick knives to prevent future troubles, otherwise the disease will fight back, and it will be disabled at least and will kill people at worst!

It was the gate lord clan who really killed His Royal Highness the prince, and the royal family and clan relatives who were supported by the gate lord clan also indirectly became accomplices in this unjust case.

I don't dare to sue Princess Sù for the truth of this unjust case, I don't dare to sue Sù for her prince being forced to die under the imperial city, and I don't dare to sue her for killing her brother, including the Queen Mother!

The Empress Dowager's family was the most powerful family in the Northern Wei Dynasty back then, in order to maintain power and stabilize the overall situation in the court, it is very likely that the Empress Dowager knew about the conspiracy at the same time, although she did not directly participate, but she did not save the prince when she saw death, what is the difference between this and directly killing the prince?

The princess said that she wanted to let those who had harmed the prince get the punishment they deserved, and that she was ready to be the enemy of the nobles, so was she ready to make her most respected and beloved imperial grandmother her opponent?

The Empress Dowager is decisive, as long as she threatens the country and shakes the foundation of the country, even if she is a close relative, she will be ruthless. If this is true for the crown prince, will she be particularly lenient with the princess?

Princess, princess, what should I do if you sue me?

If I want to save your life, I have to persuade you to give up continuing to investigate the truth of the prince's rebellion, but you are so stubborn and proud, so smart and strong, maybe you have already felt a premonition, but you still want to explore the truth, even if there is an abyss in front of you, you will not hesitate to want to cross over, right?!

Then what I want to do is to be your greatest help, to be your most solid barrier, to help you block all the open guns and arrows that want to hurt you. And what I have to do now is to use the power of the Gao family to my advantage, even if it is to conspire and calculate, even if it is to stain my hands with blood, I will not hesitate to do it!

From the day we got married, ah, to be precise, from the moment I fell in love with her, my fate and her have been closely linked, as Aunt Luo Xia said: My fate with her is one glory and one loss.

I will never allow anyone to hurt her, no one!

"Horse, horse...... Gao Chen!"

In my ears was the princess's somewhat worried call, she caressed my face, there was a look of concern in her eyes, she was calling me, because I had just lost my mind?

"I'm sorry, princess, I ......"

"Your expression was so scary, what were you thinking?"

I smiled and placed the teacup on the railing, holding her hand caressing my face, her hand still warm and nostalgic to me.

"Princess, can you sue me, did you say anything to He Bi that day?"

The princess smiled slightly, but there was a bit of a bitter taste, and said:

"Is this what you've been thinking about? I only asked him two questions: one was Wang Mang's usurpation of power, and the other was the case of the crown prince of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. ”

I can't help but close my eyes, sure enough, did the princess still strike first, Wang Mang's usurpation of power is the disaster of his relatives, reflecting the trouble of the scholar family, and the case of the unjust murder of the prince Liu according to Wu Gu of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is similar to the case of the unjust murder of the prince Xiao Lang, the combination of the two, He Bi is so smart, how could he not guess the princess's intentions.

The princess has the heart to thoroughly investigate the case of Xiao Lang, the deposed prince!

This is what the princess intentionally told He Bi, that is, she wanted to convey it to the people behind him through his mouth. Although I don't know what the princess's intentions are, I know that she has always planned and then acted, and such a plan must have ulterior motives.

But now a few days have passed, but there has been no movement, is the other party deliberately using static braking?Or do you think that even if the princess wants to investigate, she is not afraid?

I opened my eyes, and at a glance I saw hers, and in her eyes I was found.

"It's too calm......"

Yes, it's not normal to be too calm, just like the calm water surface of his bay, the surface is calm and stable, but in fact, the inside is already turbulent!

"You're really smart, donkey, even if I don't say anything, you can imagine it!"

sighed slightly, in fact, it was not for nothing, at least the things she wanted to know, she already knew, but she couldn't tell the person in front of her everything.

The princess suddenly threw herself into my arms and hugged me.

I was a little flattered, but I knew that what she needed at this moment was for me to be by her side and be on the same side as her.

I hugged her forcefully and gave her a positive answer: no matter what happens, I will be with you and face it together!

She smiled suddenly, feeling very relieved, but also began to be a little worried, her eyes sank, and she asked:

"Are you afraid?"

I don't want to lie in front of her, and I can't pretend to be strong in front of her.

I nodded and said:

"Well, I'm scared ......"

"You're afraid you won't be able to protect me?"

“......”

I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you, but I'm even more afraid of losing you......

"I know, you promised the imperial grandmother to protect me, don't worry, no one can hurt me!"

I seemed to hear a little loss in her tone, did she think that I wanted to protect her just because of the promise I had made to the Queen Mother?

It's not just that, it's more than that......

"Wan'er, I'm ......"

I wanted to take this opportunity to confess my heart to her, I like her, I really like her, but I haven't dared to really say this like, I'm worried that she will take this like as my joke, I want to tell her, this like is the love of the promise, is the love of a lifetime, is the love of a lifetime, is the love of a lifetime!

"Childe, Childe......"

A Zheng's voice came not far away, the princess gently pushed me away, and I couldn't wait to shoot this stupid boy to death immediately, why didn't I come early or late, but I chose this time, I finally mustered up the courage to confess my heart, alas, I was messed up by this kid!

This kid ran all the way, out of breath, but he still didn't forget to say hello to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Princess!"

Sister Ziyu said, this is the rule of the princess's mansion, if you don't follow the rules, you will be beaten!

"Look at you, take a breath first, your son-in-law won't run, say slowly. ”

The princess looked at me with a smile on her face, that smile was very beautiful, and there was a little shy flush, maybe because I called her "Wan'er", suddenly remembered that time she grabbed my ear, when I begged for mercy, I inadvertently called her "Wan'er", does she like me to call her Wan'er?

As soon as I thought of this, I was in a good mood, and the depression and anger when Ah Zheng interrupted his confession halfway through were swept away, and I looked at Ah Zheng with a smile and said:

"What's the matter?"

Ah Zheng had never seen a son who smiled so kitsch, and he couldn't help but be stunned, so frightened that he forgot his words, and only dared to send an invitation to me with trembling hands.

Eh, what's wrong with this kid? Am I so terrible? Look at him!

Lazy to ignore him, he took the invitation in his hand, opened it, and realized that this was the invitation to the Gao family banquet, and after a cursory look, he handed the invitation to the princess.

Is it a family banquet for the Gao family?!

At that time, the head and face of the Gao family will bring their relatives into the table, it is a rare family feast, and my eldest son and grandson have already started a family, and they are still married to a princess. According to the rules, it's time to take the princess to the Gao family to meet those elders and uncles.

This is the first and very important step for me to truly become the head of the Gao family and seize the rights of the Gao family.

I looked at the princess with a wicked smile, and after the princess read the invitation, she looked at me with an indifferent expression, clearly seeing through my bad intentions.

I solemnly put my hand on the princess's shoulders and said:

"Hmm...... This, beautiful daughter-in-law, always have to see her in-laws!"

The princess brushed my hand away, and then smiled back at me, saying:

Actually, you just wanted to say, ugly daughter-in-law...... Right?"

Ahem, the conscience of heaven and earth, if the princess calls herself an ugly daughter-in-law, then no one in this world dares to call herself a beautiful daughter-in-law!

She snorted, and then, as if playing a little tantrum with the princess, stopped looking at me, turned and walked away.

Ah, hey, I suddenly remembered that the things about the princess that the princess had told me were really golden rules, and I must not ignore them!

The princess was angry, and the consequences were severe......

"Ah, princess, listen to me, I have no intention of doing so!"

I ran after me as I spoke.

And Ah Zheng, who was forgotten here in the end, couldn't stop shivering.

......
