Chapter 242: Has my brother conquered Shen Mingjue in these years?
"Actually, I'm very scared. I'm afraid you won't be able to come back." Gu Changli said to him, "Do you remember that three years ago I issued an imperial edict asking you to stop fighting?"
"I remember," Gu Changfeng said, "In the past three years, we have had a period of barely peaceful time in the border area."
Gu Changli nodded. "The people from the Imperial Observatory didn't make it clear, but one person will definitely die. So I can't take the risk. Your safety and the stability of the border area are more important to you. You are my only relative. So it's good to delay it for a while."
Although he was reluctant to admit it, Gu Changfeng always had a bad feeling after returning to Beijing this time. He wanted to touch his brother's face, just like a long time ago. As soon as he saw Gu Changli, he put himself into the story very deeply. As soon as he saw Gu Changli, he always felt that he was very familiar with Gu Changli as if he had been with him for more than ten years in the past. But after considering it again and again, he still patted Gu Changli on the shoulder.
"I understand, but destiny cannot be violated. Even if I am no longer around, you can still govern Da Qi, right? The late emperor chose you because you have the ability to govern the country. In this respect, you are a million times better than me. If there comes a time when you can no longer protect me, please put the interests of the country before your brother."
Gu Changli was not very happy, but he just said with some sadness: "That's right, but I don't want to lose my brother... Brother has worked hard in the border these years." He changed the subject a little forcefully, "I heard that brother has taken down Shen Mingjue these years?"
He said it so lightly, but Gu Changfeng almost choked on his own saliva.
"Ahem... who are you talking about? No, no, there is no such thing." What's going on? How did the emperor know? !
Gu Changli smiled, "Brother, don't treat me like a child. I always thought that there was something wrong with the way you looked at him. Do you dare to say that you don't have a good impression of him? I think you just like him."
Gu Changfeng thought that the emperor was very insightful, and not a single word of it was false, but how could he say that: "It's impossible for him and I to be together."
"If my brother really likes her so much, even if she is mute, she can enter the palace. I will personally grant the marriage, and no one will say anything nonsense." The emperor looked at him with his eyes blinking.
It would be great if there wasn't this broken system. His brother is so sensible!
Gu Changfeng shook his head regretfully, "I am destined to owe him this life."
Seeing him like this, Gu Changli asked, "Brother, you are not in love with someone else, are you?"
As soon as Xiaowo was scolded, he went online to give a reminder: [Host. ]
Gu Changfeng: "I'll tell you about this question later." He was still surprised. Why did the child in his memory suddenly ask him about his relationship issues?
Then Gu Changli said, "Brother, do you want to see my son and daughter? Your nephews and nieces?"
Gu Changfeng: “…” Oh, how could he forget? When he left Beijing, she had just gotten married, and five years later, she already had three children.
He laughed in his heart, Gu Changli was truly a good young man suitable for the 21st century. He was a senior in college, married and had children, and he even had three children (not really)!
"Okay."
After the dinner, the two brothers went to the abode of the princes. The three children had played all day and were now somewhat asleep. Gu Changfeng looked at the three children and wondered how his brother knew about his relationship problems. Could it be that the wedding on the grassland had been spread here? Wouldn't that mean he had failed in his mission? !
As if noticing Gu Changfeng's absent-mindedness, Gu Changli said, "Brother, I don't know why, but I always feel that the Lu and Zhou families are very distant from me, unlike you and Shen Mingjue who are close to me."
Gu Changfeng: “…”
"You already have a child, so stop imagining things. Besides, Shen Mingjue and I are just friends. Who told you that? Why do you like to frame others so much?" Gu Changfeng felt embarrassed. He had to know how far the rumors had spread and whether he could still be saved.
"It's true. Although Lu is gentle, she is not strong enough and easily influenced. There are not many people in the harem now. If there were more people, she would not be suitable to be the queen. As for Zhou... Although she is beautiful, I always feel that she has someone in her heart. I sent people to investigate and found that she and Zhou Chaoyang were both children picked up and raised in the same village. The person she is thinking of might be his sworn brother."
Gu Changli continued, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so hasty. I would have taken her back to the palace just because she was beautiful. This has really delayed her life."
Gu Changfeng remained silent. How could he not know? Before marrying into the palace, Zhou Wutong wanted to elope with Zhou Chaoyang.
"As for your story, it was actually the old gentleman who told me, but I also asked Wen Heng privately. Weren't you three on good terms at the time?"
"What did he say?" Gu Changfeng asked.
"He said that you guys broke up later," Gu Changli didn't dare to look at him, "and said that you were not interested in her anymore."
After hearing this, Gu Changfeng finally relaxed. Fortunately, there was still room for maneuver.
