Ah Yi was full of shame, and his face was red.

Gu Wanning's heart hurt, but his face did not show it, and he said lightly: "Being in the royal family, as the eldest son, it is a matter of course that you are made the prince. The courtiers are tolerant of you, also for the sake of your youth. ”

"But don't think too highly of yourself. You are still young, you have a lot to learn, and you have a long way to go. Only by guarding against arrogance and rashness and calming down can you truly become a qualified prince. ”

Behind the harsh reprimand is a mother's deep love and expectation for her son.

Ah Yi's eyes turned red: "I know that the queen mother is all for my good." In the future, my son will definitely think twice before he acts. ”

Gu Wanning snorted, got up and stepped forward, tidying up Ah Yi's clothes. Fang said in a soft voice: "It's not early, you've been busy all day, go back early and rest!"

Ah Yi wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and said in a low voice: "I haven't finished the homework assigned by Taifu today. I'll go back and finish my schoolwork before resting. ”

Get up early and go to bed late every day, listen to political discussions, learn to review and review, and cope with the homework that was originally to be studied.

In just a few months, Ah Yi has lost a lot of weight.

Gu Wanning saw it in his eyes, how could he not feel distressed?

It's just that the jade is not cut, and it is not a weapon. Ah Yi has this perseverance and endurance, and she, as a mother, cannot be soft-hearted and indulgent, and cannot let her children be discouraged and relaxed in the name of love.

"Good. Gu Guanning said softly: "The queen mother asked the pearl to make some supper you like and send it to you." ”

Ah Yi nodded.

……

Pearl cooking skills are not inferior to any imperial chef. He is especially good at pastry porridge. Tonight's supper is the Lantern Festival brewed with osmanthus wine.

Ah Yi is not alone in staying up all night and studying hard, and Gillian is also by her side.

The two sisters and brothers are twins, and they have been inseparable since childhood. often bickering, but very affectionate. During this period of time, Ah Yi was busy during the day, and when she was reading at night, Gillian was always by her side.

The pearl sent it was also a supper for two people.

The Lantern Festival is soft and glutinous and sweet, and Gillian likes it very much.

Ah Yi had a lot of thoughts today, he didn't have much appetite, and he only ate two. Seeing that Gillian was still unsatisfied, he handed over his bowl: "There are a few left, you can eat them for me!"

Gillian responded with a smile, took the bowl, and ate cleanly.

Ah Yi had to make fun of a few words: "You are a girl's family, and your appetite is better than that of a man." When you grow up in the future, I don't know who will dare to marry you. ”

Gillian shushed back unceremoniously: "I'm a woman who doesn't let me shave my eyebrows." It's better than you, a sensitive, fragile seven-foot man. ”

Ah Yi is only average in height among teenagers of the same age. What a "seven-foot man", since Gillian deliberately joked about him.

In the past, Ah Yi would definitely ridicule each other.

At this time, Ah Yi let out a long sigh: "Gillian, you are right. I am a man, but I am not as smart as you. If you are also a man, it is only appropriate for you to be the prince. ”

Gillian: "......"

Gillian smiled, looked Ah Yi up and down a few times, and her eyes were full of doubts: "What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly say such frustrating words! Could it be that you encountered something unpleasant at the court meeting today? Or were you reprimanded by the queen mother?"

Ah Yi replied in a low voice: "Both!"

Gillian: "......"

……

Ah Yi took a cup of tea time to tell what happened.

At the end, he sighed, "I always thought I had done a good enough. It turns out that I am still far behind. The Queen Mother must have been very disappointed in me. There are also ministers in the court, who must be extremely disappointed in me, the prince. ”

"Gillian, you say, am I not suitable to be the prince at all? If I am not the eldest son of my father, this position will not be my turn at all!"

"If it were you, you would do better than me......"

"Ah Yi," Gillian couldn't listen anymore, and frowned to interrupt Ah Yi's self-pity: "When you encounter such a little setback, you are so cowering and have no confidence." That's not good. ”

"All the ministers know that you are young, and they will not be disappointed in you because of such a trivial matter. The queen mother reprimanded you, but she also hoped that you would fight for your strength and become a weapon as soon as possible! No one was extremely disappointed in you, and no one thought that you were not suitable to be a prince. Don't be cranky here. ”

"We are twin siblings. I have never been jealous and dissatisfied with you, and I look forward to you taking on the responsibility of your father and sharing the worries of your mother. As a woman, I can't do as much as you can. ”

"So, you have to pick yourself up as soon as possible. ”

"As for the position of prince you mentioned, if I were a man, it would indeed not be your turn. for I am an hour older than you. However, this assumption is simply not going to come true. When you think about this, it's a mere mere nuisance. ”

After Ah Yi confided, he was comforted by Gillian again, and his dark mood was slightly clearer: "Gillian, thank you for your comfort." I'm really feeling down today. In the past few years, the queen mother has never reprimanded me so harshly. ”

Gillian smiled casually: "The love is deep, and the responsibility is keen." The queen mother has high expectations for you, which is why she is strict with you. If you are in a real predicament, the Queen Mother will not hesitate to stand up and stop you behind you. ”

This is indeed Gu Wanning's temper!

Ah Yi thought that this was indeed the case, and couldn't help grinning.

The two sisters and brothers looked at each other for a moment, and Gillian suddenly whispered: "Ah Yi, is my father's illness incurable?"

Ah Yi's heart jumped suddenly, and his face changed: "How can you talk nonsense if you say such a big rebellion!"

Gillian smiled bitterly: "There are no outsiders here, just our two sisters and brothers." What else can not be said. ”

"The queen mother never mentioned my father's illness, and in the past few months, we have occasionally seen my father, and my father is asleep. The emperor's grandmother often went to the Jiaofang Palace, but she never saw her father's situation. ”

"The queen mother is strict with you and has high expectations. I think about it, I am also worried that one day, my father will die and return to heaven, the court will float, and people's hearts will be scattered. Therefore, in the past few months, the Queen Mother has been carefully teaching you how to deal with state affairs and how to deal with courtiers. ”

Ah Yi was in it, and he felt more deeply about nature.

was analyzed by Gillian so reasonably, and suddenly couldn't say it.

The two siblings fell silent.

I don't know how long it took for Gillian to open her mouth with red eyes: "I hope I'm just worrying about nothing." ”

Ah Yi took a deep breath: "Father will definitely get better." ”

After a pause, he said, "I still have some homework left today, you can finish reading it with me." ”

Gillian nodded.

Bright candles were sprinkled on the faces of a pair of young men and women.

Gillian's expression was calm, and Ah Yi's eyes were firm.

They are the most noble young men and women in the world, the noble eldest princess and prince of Great Qin, and the proudest children of Xiao Xu and Gu Guanning.
