This is Gu Lingzi Garden, a secluded and mysterious area, with many exotic flowers and plants and unpredictable powers.

For as long as I can remember, I've lived here with my mother. There weren't too many people here, except for my mother and me, and there were only three servants on duty in the center, and the days were quiet and a little lonely.

I had never met my father, and my mother had never talked about him, and I had asked curiously when I was a child, but my mother only shook her head flatly, and said nothing. I don't think my mother cares about my father. You don't want me to care. And the servants were silent. This made me even more curious, but I could only bury it in my heart, and I was not allowed to go out of the garden. I thought silently that my father must have been such a mysterious and great man that no one dared to talk about him lightly. Although the servants did not talk about him, they also had great respect for him.

With this curiosity for my father, I grew up, and today happens to be my birthday. I hid, and my heart was throbbing inexplicably. In this beautiful world of birds and flowers, and just following my mother peacefully, my personality is a little sentimental. But I still think it's going to be different today.

"Yu'er-Yu'er-" The ethereal call came quietly.

It's my mother's call.

But I didn't want to be discovered by my mother, so I had to hide in the dense foliage.

As my mother walked away, I breathed a sigh of relief, but I saw two servants approaching, as if they were still talking about something. I listened with bated breath, but I also caught a few key words, such as "birthday", "Your Majesty", "gift", etc. The gift is very understandable, today is my birthday, but "Your Majesty" ...... Could it be His Majesty King Mo, the supreme ruler of this heavenly realm? How could such a noble and lofty figure deign to come here in person? I really don't understand.

"Ahh

I was shocked, and my hand slipped again, and I fell down the tree in embarrassment, and fell heavily into the damp mud floor, covered in dirt, and had a few abrasions on my body, which hurt fiercely. I couldn't help but cry out in pain, and I didn't care that I was still sitting on the ground, so I quickly lowered my head and opened my sleeves to check the injury, only to see that it was soon purple and blue, and it hurt to the bone when I moved a little. Oh, frizzy little red, what are you doing so loudly, it really hurts to death, and now my mother has to blame again......

"Ahh

I was about to open my mouth to complain, and even squeezed out a few tears of tears, but I saw Xiaohong standing still, looking at me in a daze, and soon bowed down on my knees respectfully, and my body and head fell to the ground and did not dare to move: "See Your Majesty King Mo!"

Huh?

I turned my head to look back, and sure enough, I saw a handsome man in rich clothes, his face was expressionless, and his deep eyes were cold and calm, but there was a hint of strangeness when his gaze fell on my face. I felt a slight abnormality in my heart, and I quickly remembered that it was very inappropriate to sit in front of the noble king like this, and I was anxious to stand up, but my body was sore.

A pair of big hands were just right around my waist at this time, and I didn't have time to react, he had already picked me up and put it down very lightly, so that I could stand on my own.

"Are you Gu Zhiyu?" The cold and flat voice couldn't make out any meaning.

I raised my head when I heard the voice, and met his cold eyes, and my body suddenly stiffened, but I was still able to answer dryly: "I am Gu Zhiyu." Only then did he realize that it was not a question at all, but a clear statement. Is there anything that is not understood about the majesty of the superior?

King Mo looked at me carefully, which made my good impression of him disappear immediately, and he immediately glared back at him coldly. After King Mo found out, a playful smile flashed in his eyes, and then he looked away and asked Xiaohong, who was still kneeling slightly behind me: "Where is Qin Guying?"

Xiaohong hurriedly raised her head, lowered her head in a panic, her face dyed a hint of crimson, and replied respectfully: "Madam, she is preparing a gift for Lord Zhiyu." Dare to ask Your Majesty ......"

"Gu Zhiyu, follow this king to see your mother. King Mo said no more, turned and walked in the other direction, as if he was already familiar with the structure of the garden, and looked like a master. However, I heard that this Gu Lingziyuan is indeed one of the territories he has beaten down.

I was angry at his rudeness, and I didn't want to follow him, but my legs involuntarily moved. I still wondered what the Mo King was here for? It sounds like my mother should know he's coming, but why is she hiding it from me?

Walking into my mother's yard, she was already sitting at the small stone table, as usual. Seeing me, a trace of worry appeared on the originally calm and pleasant face, and he walked to usher: "How did Yu'er get like this? Where did you go to be naughty...... and then she seemed to notice the existence of King Mo beside me, and bowed: "Good morning, Your Majesty King Mo." "Now I am more sure that my mother and King Mo know each other, and it seems that they have known each other for a long time, although my mother has always treated people and things calmly as calmly, but I believe that there must be some problems.

I was taken to the room by the two servants to change clothes and wash again, plus a careful bandage, and after a while my hands were wrapped in the shape of rice dumplings, and then I came out depressed and sat down beside my mother.

My mother didn't seem to notice my displeasure, and said to me gently, "Happy birthday to Yu'er." Does your hand still hurt?"

Mo Wang was sitting opposite his mother, frowning slightly at this time, and he didn't seem to be used to this bandaging technique. So he put down the teacup, raised his hand and gently pressed the back of my hand, and then almost rudely unwrapped the bandage. I thought he would hurt me, but when the bandage was completely removed, I found that my hand was fine, and the pain and redness were gone. This is the magical power of magic in the royal family?

Mother was opening a delicately packaged box, only to see a pair of transparent green jade rings lying quietly inside, very beautiful and small, but not too ladylike and gentle. After untying the bandage, King Mo explained: "This is a ceremonial ring for Yu'er, according to royal tradition, he should only wear it when he is sixteen years old, but since Yu'er does not belong to the royal family, this pair of rings will be handed over to you for safekeeping, and then handed over to Yu'er himself when he is sixteen years old." ”

When the mother heard this, she said lukewarmly, "This is the first gift you have given to Yu'er in ten years? "Despite my mother's repression, I could still sense a hint of resentment.

In the past ten years, although there are servants to take care of her, my mother is still very miserable alone, and her tears only dare to flash in the darkest night, when everything falls into a deep sleep. I couldn't help but say in distress: "Mother......"

"Yu'er, he's your father. My mother suddenly interrupted me and smiled lightly, "Why don't you thank him for the gift?"

This was unexpected. I subconsciously raised my eyes and looked at King Mo again, there was indeed a somewhat familiar feeling between his eyebrows. Even if my mother broke the relationship between me and him, his indifferent expression did not change in the slightest, just looked at me fixedly, but it did not bring me a sense of pressure.

After a moment's hesitation, I asked, "If you are really my father, why did you leave me and my mother here for ten years?"

The mother's expression was a little displeased, but she did not speak, perhaps she thought it would be more appropriate for him as a father to explain.

"You always thought that your surname was Gu, and there was nothing wrong with that, you enjoyed all the advantages of being the only heir of the Gu family. But there is another thing that is undeniable, your full name should be Gu Zhiyu Fali Yale. If you find yourself in a tricky situation in the royal family in the future, you can also participate in the competition for the throne as the true eldest son of the king. ”

Mo Wang did not answer directly, but explained the origin of my name and its particularity.

In other words, my identity is the most advantageous compared to others, not only can I get everything left by the Gu family in Gu Lingzi Garden, but I can also compete for the interests of the royal family. But it is precisely because of this identity that if people are detected, they will be jealous, and interests and dangers coexist. So, did my father let us stay here in isolation from the world to protect us? Was he really so considerate? My mother never told me this, because she didn't want me to be too ambitious to go to the outside world to compete for those so-called power. Don't worry, I won't leave my mother behind.

Seeing that I seemed to understand, King Mo said again: "Qin Guying, what about your gift to Yu'er?" Judging from his name for me, he recognized me as his son, so I should also call him father instead.

When my father mentioned it, I looked at my mother with anticipation. The mother only said lightly: "From today on, he will officially become the new owner of Gu Lingzi Garden, isn't this enough? He is a member of the Gu family, and he has the blood of the Gu family, and he should also bear the responsibility of the Gu family." I will entrust him with full authority and hand it over to me as the acting owner of Gu Lingzi Garden. In this way, my mission has been accomplished. ”

The words are light, but the weight is heavy.

I was still unacceptable for a while, and was about to say something to shirk and refuse, but my mother's look obviously did not allow me to shirk the past, she was tired. I had no choice but to nod and accept the gift: "I will be a good owner, mother, please rest assured." ”

"This is where the king comes from. As if he had already known such a result, King Mo's eyes were deep, and only a flash of sharp light flashed for a moment, and then he ordered: "Gu Lingziyuan has essentially belonged to this king, so Yu'er, who has become the owner of the garden, must go to the palace with this king once and officially take over this position." When they arrived at the palace, the king and Yu'er were only monarchs and ministers, and they could be treated with courtesy. ”

As soon as I heard that I was going to the palace, I could no longer maintain my composure, and could not help but speak: "Father, I-" Aware of my recklessness, I couldn't help blushing slightly, and closed my mouth again. In fact, it's nothing to go to the palace, but there is an inexplicable nervousness in my heart.

King Mo was still expressionless, but a trace of warmth flashed in his eyes, he stood up straight, walked out, and said, "Follow this king." ”

My mother and I got up, and I hurriedly followed the steps of King Mo, and looked back at my mother with some anxiety, and my mother signaled with her eyes that I didn't have to worry too much.

The palace is truly a place of marvel, with exquisite workmanship and luxury, and rare treasures are used here as ordinary ornaments. The occasional pass-by here is also of a very high status, and ordinary people may rarely see each other in their lifetime. I followed my father Mowang all the way with apprehension, and I realized that the previous nervousness was nothing when I knew that the heavy and simple door was slowly opening in front of me. After all, what I have to face now, but all the officials and courtiers, big and small, this coercion is really not something ordinary people can bear.

Almost in a blank mind, the ceremony passed, and all the courtiers dispersed, I breathed a sigh of relief, raised my eyes to look at King Mo, and there was not too much restraint in my tone: "Father...... Your Majesty, I would like to visit the Royal Palace. "It's also good for me to know more about the affairs of the royal palace, and this request should not be excessive.

King Mo sat on the throne a little lazily, his eyebrows raised slightly, and his tone was still cold: "This king should choose someone to lead you to have a look, but it's just ......"

At this moment, a slightly childish boy's voice said in an almost equally cold tone: "Father, you are really idle, and you have rejected the invitation of your son. Isn't there something really tricky about my father?"

In the hall, King Mo and I were naturally attracted by the sound, only to see a handsome boy with clear eyebrows standing in the middle of the open quaint door, his dark brown hair was rigorously combed and tied, and the facial features that had not yet grown were already handsome and abnormal, revealing a trace of hidden coldness. The white dress seems simple and unpretentious, and the low-key and luxurious floral ornaments on the clothes faintly show the pride of the royal family. This boy appeared here, and he had such a cold aura that was not lost to people, presumably the son of King Mo, His Royal Highness, the noble prince of the royal family. He seems to be about my age.

There was a hint of softness in King Mo's eyes, and he sat up straight, his tone unchanged and cold: "Night, have you finished reading the books in the study?"

"I just finished reading it yesterday. The little prince replied in a faint voice, with a hint of respect for his father in his indifferent expression, and a hint of gloom in his clear eyes. He quickly turned back to the topic he wanted: "This is the new owner of Gu Lingzi Garden?" I thought that my father was already the youngest person in power, but I didn't expect the new owner to have such a talent at a young age. ”

I pretended not to hear the deep meaning of the words, and saluted solemnly: "Gu Zhiyu has seen His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

On the surface, as a prince, he is naturally much more noble than me. Obviously, he didn't know about my father-son relationship with King Mo, and if this relationship was broken by others, it would be extremely embarrassing, and I had to be careful not to make any mistakes and not cause trouble to my father.

The prince looked at me sideways and asked abruptly, "How old are you?"

"Today is my 10th birthday. ”

The prince whispered thoughtfully, "He is a year older than me." Nowadays, there are very few people who are close to my age. ”

I have never heard of anything in the royal family, but in the face of the prince who is only a year older than me, I am still inexplicably weak, afraid that he will see something. It seems to me that this prince is not easy to get close to, but has a deep heart.

King Mo spoke again: "At night, the owner of the garden is trying to enjoy the scenery of the palace, but he is suffering from no one to accompany him. If you have leisure at night, you might as well walk with the owner. ”

The prince didn't think much about it, and to my surprise, he said, "That's what the son wants." Please come with me. ”

I replied: "Then thank you, Your Majesty." His Royal Highness the Prince of Labor. ”

The scenery in the palace is no less than Gu Lingzi Garden, it is really wonderful and elegant, but I focus most of my attention on the prince walking in front, and I am not in the mood to appreciate and sigh. Probably sensing my absent-mindedness, the prince stopped and turned his head with a faint smile on his lips, but it made people chill: "You seem to have a lot to ask, and now you can say it directly, and there is no one nearby." I can tell you first that my name is Ji Miya, the eldest son of the royal family, and I was born in the year of my father's accession to the throne, so I am regarded as auspicious. ”

He paused, the smile on his lips deepened, and his eyes looked directly at me, with an unclear meaning in his eyes: "Because I am from the queen mother, my father also values me the most." But now it seems that your father also appreciates you. ”

I smiled humbly and replied, "I'm just a little farmer, and Your Majesty may not be at ease and just test me." Soon His Majesty was relieved, and he forgot about me. Putting this aside, may I ask Your Highness, how many brothers and sisters do you have?"

I still have some thoughts about my father. Although I know that my father is the king, there must be many concubines and so on, which have nothing to do with me, but I still want to know how many blood brothers and sisters I have? I'm afraid I'll never be able to recognize him. My identity is embarrassing.

"Father...... It's just me and my newborn sister. But I remember that there was another concubine who was pregnant. Zhi Miye frowned slightly, and said, "Why do you say 'yet'?"

"This ...... Your Royal Highness the Prince, your sister Your Royal Highness the Little Princess must be delicate and moving, Your Majesty should also love her very much, right?" I seemed to inadvertently raise my hand to brush away a few strands of hair that were blown by the wind on my forehead, but in fact, I wiped my cold sweat and hurriedly changed the subject. It's just hard to imagine how King Mo, who is so cold on the outside or in his heart, that he doesn't seem to have a trace of emotion, can hold a baby with a doting and gentle look on his face. This is definitely something that can only happen in a dream.

However, this prince of the night did enjoy such treatment.

Zhi Miye came back to his senses from his thoughts, shook his head slightly, and the smile on his lips gradually disappeared, "I can't understand my father." Perhaps I am the only one who thinks that my father only pays attention to me, and other things, such as political affairs, are indifferent and do not pay attention to them. But why do you care so much about this?"

I was awakened for a moment, and hurriedly looked away, not daring to look directly at him anymore, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's just...... Curious...... Forgive me for my rudeness, and ask the prince to forgive me. "How can an outsider inquire about the affairs of the royal family at will?! I was so dizzy that I forgot even the most basic etiquette on weekdays.

was hanging his head in annoyance, but suddenly heard him say in a cold tone: "You and I are of the same age, it doesn't hurt to call each other by name, you can call me by your name, and I will call you by your name." Go, since you are so curious, I will take you to visit the princess. Come to think of it, no one will stop me. ”

The little princess is as famous as snow, and her name is simple and indeed like her person. The princess's face is round and fair, her eyelashes are long, and when she opens her eyes, she feels like she has seen a pair of bright stars, clear and innocent, and her delicate skin is like condensation like soft snow, and her small facial features are delicate and lovely, which can be called pink carving. She was only slightly startled by our arrival, and soon fell back into sleep, sleeping peacefully.

The princess's mother was also a delicate woman, about twenty years old. For some reason, when we arrived, we didn't see any servants. And when I looked out through the house, I happened to see another concubine in the courtyard talking with the princess's mother, and it was very harmonious.

It is very strange why she does not speak in the house, but in the courtyard where the wind blows from time to time?

Zhi Mi Ye stepped forward and spoke in a cold tone: "Princess Soya, Princess Xi, it seems that I have disturbed your conversation. ”

The two princesses immediately fell silent, stood respectfully on their sides, and saluted: "Your Royal Highness." ”

Princess Soya, the princess's mother, asked suspiciously, "Your Highness, but what is the important matter?" ”

"The princess slept soundly. Zhi Mi Ye said lightly. Even if this sentence sounds confusing. He paused, and then said: "But, I hope that Princess Soya, you, can take more careful care of her, after all, she is a princess of the royal family, and she can't be treated casually, right? ”

When Princess Soya heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and she asked with some trepidation: "Dare, dare to ask Your Highness, is it ......?"

Zhi Mi Ye didn't answer, turned sideways, and looked deep: "Why doesn't Princess Soya go and take a closer look by herself? If something happened to the princess because of negligence in taking care of her......

"Yes, His Highness Xie reminded. Princess Soya's face turned even paler, and after nodding her head hurriedly, she hurriedly lifted her skirt and ran into the house.

I think this attitude is really intimidating, it sounds very serious, but in fact it is just that the princess has just taken a bath and has not dried her hair carefully, but it may also cause a cold.

I felt that this prince was a little interesting, so I decided to watch silently, after all, there is nothing to do with me, people's eyes are close to the prince, how can I notice the inconspicuous me?

Princess Xi looked very calm, smiled lightly, and spoke before stopping the night, with a very gentle and elegant appearance: "Since Princess Soya is busy, in order not to disturb Your Highness, I will also go back to the palace to recuperate." The little prince or princess in the belly, I will take good care of it, please don't worry, Your Highness. ”

Zhi Mi Ye had a handsome face, and the only childishness on his face became negligible because of the existence of momentum: "Princess Xi, my father ordered me to come, one is to see Wang Mei, but to find you." I have something to say to you. ”

Princess Xi did not get the permission of the prince, so she had to stay put, and when she heard the words, she meekly lowered her eyes and whispered a question: "Oh? ”

The two of them completely ignored me...... I'll continue to watch silently.

"Princess Xi is a few months pregnant?" asked the usual question. But everyone in the palace should know about this matter, after all, it is good news.

Princess Xi also had such a question in her heart, isn't this something she has known for a long time? But she was still calm and calm on the surface: "It's been three months since I returned to Your Highness. ”

At this time, a faint cold light flashed in Zhimiye's eyes, and it quickly converged: "So three months ago, apart from your father, who else did you have contact with? Or, where have you been?"

"I have been staying in the palace, and at most I have been to the wombs of a few concubines to sit and chat softly. As soon as Princess Xi's words fell, she saw a cold light coming from the corner of her eyes, her frightened expression just became delicate, and her snow-white neck had been marked with blood without pity, hideous and terrifying. She was almost speechless in fear, and spoke intermittently: "King, Your Royal Highness the Prince, why ......?"

If I'm not mistaken, Fang Cai is indeed a cold face of the night's little hand casually waved, as if patting the ordinary action of the thin dust on the sleeve, I didn't expect it to be a killing machine.

Was it King Mo who instructed him to kill Princess Xi? But he was a nine-year-old child, and he was a noble prince, why did he have such a cold and bloody mind? King Mo was suspicious of Princess Xi...... No, it was certain that Princess Xi had betrayed him, so he wanted to kill the unborn child!

The coldness in Zhimiye's eyes was even worse, staring straight at Princess Xi, making her shudder. "You still insist that you are innocent?" said a chilling word from the mouth of a child, the picture seemed a little incongruous, but it was normal for him to stop the night.

Where has Princess Xi been so intimidated, the pampered woman, even if she is calm on the outside, her heart is also in a mess, her legs are weak, she falls to the ground, crying, Chu Chu is pitiful: "Spare my life, Your Royal Highness, I was forced, my heart has not betrayed Your Majesty, and I originally planned to get rid of the child in my belly, but I am ashamed of my love for Your Majesty, for fear that Your Majesty will be even more angry......"

What did she mean by admitting that she had betrayed King Mo and thinking that she could continue to sit as his princess by removing the child in her womb?

So Zhi Mi Ye no longer wasted her tongue, and directly ended her life, and the blood flowing from her neck stained the white stone path red, scarlet and demonic, adding a bit of weird atmosphere.

I looked at the gradually cold and stiff corpse that fell to the ground in a daze, it was one corpse and two lives, and Zhi Mi Ye was expressionless, with the same look in his eyes as usual, looking at me lightly. I couldn't help but open my mouth and asked, "What's this...... Are you going to tell Princess Soya, what should I do?"

"Someone will take care of it. Soya became a mother, it is not appropriate to see blood, and it is not good for her sister. He pondered and whispered, "This is also my father's experience with me." Gu Zhiyu, you say, I passed it?"

He murmured, leading me away without hurrying.

It is said that King Mo has already had his hands touched by human life at the age of five, and Zhi Miye, as the eldest son of the royal family, has two lives under his hands at the age of nine, and I am afraid that it will be much more difficult for me to face......

But Father, I will prove it to you, because I am Gu Zhiyu Fali Yale, the eldest son in the true sense of the word.
