Chapter 214 The Arrogant Concubine 32
Chapter 214 The Arrogant Concubine 32
Several princes were forced to return to the capital. Each of them became at least five shades darker. When they stood in front of the crown prince, the crown prince was a little afraid to recognize them.
How……
Brothers, let's go out...
Is there a secondary development?
They are all strong now and can fight against the blind bear alone.
Several princes also understood that they had been "exiled" and only the crown prince stayed with Emperor Jingzhang to handle internal affairs. Obviously, the throne belonged to the crown prince and there was no place for them.
So he stopped making a fuss.
Pay respects to the prince obediently.
Prince:?
wrong!
It's a scam!
When have his brothers ever been so respectful? With all his military achievements, shouldn't he be more flamboyant when he returns to the capital?
A few idiots have become smart?
He has already drafted plans to suppress his brothers A, B, and C. There must be a chance for them to be implemented, right?
"Thank you for your hard work over the past few years."
Despite being on guard, the prince welcomed them to the capital with a very friendly smile on his face.
Guo Rongan followed beside the prince, wearing a scarlet robe, standing tall and graceful, like a mountain and a deep pool.
The Fifth Prince looked at him with a slightly complicated look.
In his impression, Guo Rongan was still the street wanderer carrying a birdcage and doing nothing on the long street. In a blink of an eye, he became a trusted minister that his father valued very much.
Gan!
This guy used to be such a good actor!
The Fifth Prince thought back to a time long ago when he had beaten up Guo Rongan for being too offensive. He couldn’t…retaliate, right?
"Why does the Fifth Prince look at me like this?"
Catching his gaze, Guo Rongan asked curiously.
The fifth prince shook his head slightly.
The question was too polite, and it was completely different from the Guo Rongan he remembered before.
But that's not important either.
The prince welcomed these brothers and a group of generals to the capital.
After repeated tests, and finding that his brothers were really well behaved, the prince didn't bother to care about them anymore and just piled a lot of troubles on them.
Although Beixuan’s territory is large enough at present, as an ambitious emperor——
What I have seen, if you don’t get all of them, it can’t be considered unified.
So Emperor Jingzhang turned his eyes to the sea.
He wanted to conquer that vast ocean during his lifetime.
Unfortunately, even with Beixuan’s top medical team serving him, he still didn’t live to see that time.
Late one night, he closed his eyes and never got up again.
But he died happily, too.
Because he achieved the goal of expanding territory and bringing prosperity to the country, he has the face to meet his ancestors in the underworld!
The methods of the crown prince who succeeded to the throne were still a little immature compared to his.
But it's okay.
He has Guo Rongan!
As soon as the prince ascended the throne, he found Guo Rongan and had a drink and chat with him.
First, remember Emperor Jingzhang, and then tell Guo Rongan——
Don't worry, I treat you as my confidant, just like my father does.
Dad has never treated you unfairly, and I won't treat you unfairly either. Just do your job well for me.
Guo Rongan is no longer the young man who could not understand the official language.
Upon hearing this, he naturally agreed, indicating that the relationship between the king and his subjects could create another good story.
After Emperor Jingzhang left, Guo's father could no longer hold on.
Mr. Guo also left happily.
Because the Guo family's legacy was preserved in his hands, it was passed on and developed in his son's generation.
Seeing that Guo Changhong was also capable of protecting the family business and that the Guo family could prosper for three generations, how could he not be happy?
Unfortunately……
His eldest son lived in Marquis Rang's mansion all day long, like he was a son-in-law, which made him a little dissatisfied.
But his sons had such opportunities thanks to Marquis Rang. Anyway, they lived not far away and came back from time to time to honor them. So Guo's father had nothing to say.
In short, Guo's father didn't survive more than half a month.
According to Beixuan laws, Guo Rongan was supposed to observe mourning for him for a year.
but!
The newly crowned prince can’t wait!
So he was only asked to observe mourning for a month and then come back to work.
During this time of grief, Shu Jiao could hardly keep still. She changed into mourning clothes and went to the Duke's Mansion next door to mourn for Guo's father.
"Jiaojiao."
Guo Rongan squeezed Shu Jiao's hand, his red eyes filled with suffocating grief, "I don't have a father anymore."
I didn't feel anything before.
But when I really lost it, I found that everything was so hard to accept.
Shu Jiao knelt beside him, without any comfort, just quietly accompanying him.
Wen Rong couldn't help but sigh as she supported her grief-stricken mother-in-law. She felt that the vitality of her mother-in-law, who had always been graceful and steady, was rapidly fading away with the passing of her father.
as predicted.
Only half a year later, the Duke of Zhongwu's Mansion held another funeral.
Since the man was no longer in power, Guo Rongan moved back from Ranghou Mansion, and Shu Jiao also moved in.
A few years later, Guo Changhong passed the imperial examination and became an official in the court.
With Guo Rongan as his father, the new emperor also has a filter when looking at Guo Changhong. He is very optimistic about him and treats him with all kinds of preferential treatment.
Guo Changhong's official career went smoothly.
After realizing that if he remained in a high position, Guo Changhong would not make any further progress, Guo Rongan readily submitted a letter of resignation.
The new emperor tried again and again to keep him.
Guo Rongan left anyway.
As soon as he left, Guo Changhong was promoted.
"father."
Guo Changhong couldn't help but be deeply moved, "Actually, you don't have to. Your son is still young and can still calm down for another two years."
Guo Rongan looked at him in surprise, "You don't think I did this because of you, do you?"
Guo Changhong: Isn’t it?
"Your second mother said that it was boring to stay at home, so she asked me to take her out to play. Your second mother and I decided to go to Jiangnan first, and then go to the sea. We have planned the itinerary."
Guo Rongan said, and then added: "Take good care of your mother at home."
After saying that, leave.
Guo Changhong's mouth twitched, and he felt quite complicated.
"came back."
"Ah."
Shu Jiao sat on the chair and extended her hand.
Guo Rongan pulled her up with a little effort and held her in his arms. "Everything is packed. We will leave tomorrow."
Shu Jiao smiled, her fingertips entwined with his long hair, "Then you have to take good care of me."
"When did I fail to take good care of you?"
Guo Rongan asked back.
Sure enough, the two of them left early the next morning with their luggage and people.
All the way south, from the misty rain of Jiangnan to the yellow sand of the desert, to see the vast grasslands and feel the salty sea breeze...
When they returned to Beijing, they both had aged a lot.
Guo Rongan is very resilient.
He was nearly eighty years old when he died.
Shu Jiao was also tired of playing around, and didn't want to take advantage of the royal family, so she submitted a memorial, asking to pass her title of marquis to Guo Changhong's daughter, and leave the property that could not be stored in the space to Guo Changhong.
The emperor agreed.
Guo Rongan was about to cry, and he believed that Shu Jiao must love him terribly to be willing to treat his offspring so well.
Shu Jiao: Mainly, I have no choice.
Before leaving, Guo Rongan also reminded Guo Changhong to treat Shu Jiao well.
Guo Changhong nodded in agreement.
nonsense.
He enjoyed an overnight fortune when he was old, and his daughter even got a marquis title for free.
It's unacceptable for him to be unfilial to Shu Jiao!
But Guo Changhong didn't expect that after Guo Rongan left, when he went out and came back, Shu Jiao was no longer breathing.
At that moment, Guo Changhong felt heavy in his heart and there were tears in his eyes.
Hey ~
Second Mother loved her father so much that she was willing to be buried with him.
His father has not lost out in this life.
Got~
Bury them together.
This is the last thing he, as a son, can do for his parents.
