Emperor Mingde was speechless and completely dumbfounded.
What does it mean to come just by opening your mouth?
How could the stinky boy's frivolous words make his father's planning over the past few years so embarrassing?
But having said that, Gu Xiao is his biological son after all. He is so smart and intelligent, and he has completely inherited my intelligence and wisdom.
Emperor Mingde was happy from the bottom of his heart. He patted Gu Xiao's strong shoulder with great satisfaction and praised him: "As expected of my son, he was born with the qualifications of an emperor."
When others heard these words, they would be scared to death. But who is Gu Xiao? The only son of Emperor Mingde!
This throne is destined to belong to Gu Xiao!
The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty knew this well, but who dared to deny it?
Gu Xiao said with a playful smile: "Dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix, and mice give birth to sons who can dig holes."
Emperor Mingde is the dragon, the queen is the phoenix, and the two sons are naturally the dragon and the phoenix among men.
But this mouse... wouldn't he scold Gu Hao?
"Who is Xiao'er calling a rat?" Emperor Mingde asked knowingly.
Gu Xiao smiled knowingly and sarcastically said: "Whoever likes to do things behind his back is a rat!"
really!
Xiaoer just scolded Gu Hao as a mouse, and the mouse's father was also a mouse. This clearly led to the scolding of Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai.
Emperor Mingde saw through it without saying anything and moved on.
…
Last night during the prince's wedding, Gu Hao, the eldest son of Prince Xiang, lost his temper in the study room and smashed almost everything that could be smashed. Even if Princess Xiang came to persuade him, it was of no avail.
The King of Xiang, Gu Zongbai, was furious and ordered everyone in the house not to visit Gu Hao. He wanted to see how long Gu Hao could last.
At this time, the steward of Prince Xiang's Mansion came towards him.
Before the butler could speak, the King of Xiang, Gu Zongbai, slammed the table angrily and shouted: "I said, no one can intercede for that traitor!"
"No...His Royal Highness is here!"
"What?" King Xiang Gu Zongbai suddenly stood up and quickly led his housekeeper to greet him.
After walking a few steps, Prince Xiang Gu Zongbai and the housekeeper saw Gu Xiao leading a dozen guards into Prince Xiang's Mansion.
"I see His Highness the Crown Prince!" King Gu Zongbai of Hunan bowed to Gu Xiao and saluted.
Gu Xiao laughed and helped the King of Hunan, Gu Zongbai, and said, "The emperor is out of town."
"It's your duty as a minister, as you should." King Xiang Gu Zongbai smiled and said, "Your Highness, please go into the main hall and rest for a while."
"Your Majesty, please."
The uncle and nephew entered the main hall, drank tea and chatted briefly.
"I got married yesterday. I only saw the emperor's uncle and his aunt coming to congratulate me. I haven't seen my cousin for a long time. But what does my cousin have to hide?" Gu Xiao greeted with a playful smile.
However, in the eyes of Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai.
Gu Xiao just smiles with a knife behind his back, and has no good intentions.
The King of Xiang, Gu Zongbaiping, was calm and explained: "Gu Hao took His Highness the Crown Prince out of the palace without His Majesty's permission, and then failed to protect His Highness the Crown Prince. Although His Majesty did not hold him accountable for the sake of my face, I The king felt really sorry and couldn't let it go, so he was sent to the study room to face the wall and think about his mistakes."
Masters exchange moves, and their moves are fatal.
Gu Xiao understood in his heart and said calmly: "My cousin feels that it is too boring for me to stay in the East Palace. I want to take me out to see the world. The idea is good, but no one can predict the accident. There is no need for the emperor." Such harsh judgment on my cousin.”
There is something in the words, there is another mystery.
King Gu Zongbai of Xiang is not a fool.
Gu Xiao's words seemed to be protecting Gu Hao, but in fact they were sarcastic about Gu Hao's self-righteousness. What does it mean to take the prince out to see the world? How can you, a mere prince of Prince Xiang, see more rare treasures than the prince?
Your worldly appearance may be a woman’s belly!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is magnanimous and magnanimous. That bastard boy is lucky to be able to ignore past suspicions. When I turn around, I will release Gu Hao and let him personally make amends to His Highness the Crown Prince." Gu Zongbai, King of Xiang, agreed.
"It's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun. I think it's better to go now, right?"
"Huh?" Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai couldn't help but be stunned.
"Don't you want me to see my cousin?"
Gu Xiao had already expressed his intention to come, so there was no room for refusal for Xiang King Gu Zongbai.
So, under the guidance of Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai.
Gu Xiao successfully arrived at Gu Hao's study. Two powerful guards were standing outside the study. When he took a closer look, he discovered that the door to the study was also locked.
"Open the door." Gu Xiao said.
The two guards remained unmoved and turned a deaf ear. Their every move was watched by Gu Xiao with his sharp eyes.
hehe.
The whole of Daqing belongs to Emperor Mingde, but in the Prince of Xiang's Mansion, the orders of a prince are not as good as those of a Prince of Xiang!
Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai noticed something strange and immediately winked at the two guards. The two guards saw the look in Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai's eyes and then slowly removed the door lock.
The moment you open the door.
Gu Xiao saw at a glance that the ground was in a mess, with broken porcelain everywhere. Gu Hao turned back angrily, as if he wanted to vent his anger, but he didn't expect to see Gu Xiao when he turned around.
Due to etiquette, Gu Hao had to bow his head.
"See His Highness the Crown Prince."
"No need to be polite."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Gu Hao stood up and stood.
Gu Xiao smiled heartlessly, looked sideways at Xiang Wang Gu Zongbai and said, "Uncle Huang, I have some matters that I would like to discuss with my cousin alone."
The king of Xiang, Gu Zongbai, could not refuse but agreed.
He led the people in Prince Xiang's palace to exit the study silently. When he saw that Gu Xiao's guards were guarding the outside of the study, Prince Xiang Gu Zongbai took a deep look and led everyone out of the study's sphere of influence.
Gu Xiao sat on a clean chair as if there was no one around, and said nonchalantly: "I have never met my cousin since we said goodbye to Tianhu. I didn't expect to meet again in this situation today."
Tianhu is where the flower boat was originally anchored.
Bringing up old things again is a bit like settling scores.
Gu Hao dealt with it carefully and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just been crowned, and he knows very little about men and women. My cousin just wants His Highness to deal with personnel issues as soon as possible to avoid any negative impact on the heirs."
What he said was plausible and well-spoken.
As if he was really a victim.
Gu Xiao smiled and said, "Don't you think, cousin, that the maids from the East Palace are more suitable to warm my bed than the maids from the flower boat?"
A pun, thought-provoking.
The maids in the East Palace are all perfect, but the boat girls floating on the lake have slept with many men, so how can they compare with them.
Gu Hao forced a smile and continued to quibble: "Although their profession is disgraceful, they are definitely the most suitable candidates for that aspect."
"As far as I know, my cousins are still unmarried and have children. Since I think they are very capable to help solve the issue of children, why do they go to all the trouble to help me instead of keeping it for myself?" Gu Xiao asked calmly.
A few simple words stopped Gu Hao.
Gu Hao felt like something was stuck in his throat, unable to speak.
