The princess served as the princess for thirty years and ascended the throne at the age of thirty.
That day, the whole capital was filled with half crying and half cheering. Some were crying because the empress who had single-handedly brought the crumbling Dazhao back to prosperity was about to abdicate, and some were laughing because they had welcomed a powerful empress.
-
Before leaving Beijing, Xihe went to Qingwa Lane.
Xu Qingluan is very old, but she has a good memory. She still remembers that more than 30 years ago during the Qiqiao Festival, a very strange guest came to her stall.
She is noble, beautiful and majestic.
The look she gave her was strange and familiar, as if they had known each other before.
But she knew that she was born in Qingwa Lane, her father was a poor scholar who failed the imperial examinations many times, her family was poor, and her mother was also very weak. She was very sure that she had never met this noble man.
But she knew who she was. She was the Heaven of Dazhao, the honorable Queen.
At this time, the Queen who had just abdicated was sitting in front of her, followed by the current Emperor. She had seen him in the crowd on the day of his enthronement, and he was indeed as majestic as a dragon and a phoenix.
Xu Qingluan was very curious: "Your Majesty, do I know you?"
After many years, she finally said what she had kept in her heart for a long time. After that, she waited anxiously for the answer.
Then she saw the queen smile, a very faint smile. The queen did not answer her but looked to her side - her husband was smiling and staring at her profile, his eyes pure and clear.
She heard the Queen say, "I sent him to you. Do you like him?"
At that moment, she almost suspected that there was something wrong with her ears, otherwise how could she hear such words, but she had good hearing and eyesight, and she could still do embroidery work.
She could hardly control her trembling. "What do you mean?"
The Queen slowly stood up. Although she was getting older, her every move was still noble and elegant. The Queen lowered her head, and her wise eyes fell on her: "This life is the last one. After this life, Gu Shang will truly disappear."
She didn't understand, but her heart trembled with coldness as His Majesty spoke.
"You are the female immortal Shangyu, and you have some connection with my husband, so I am willing to give you a chance. When your soul returns to the immortal realm, if you still can't bear to leave this person, you can go to overseas to find me, and I will grant you your wish."
After saying this, Xihe felt a little amused. She was really getting worse as she grew older, and her heart was getting softer day by day.
She curled her lips, took one last look at the two of them, turned around and walked out the door. Jiang Shan followed her calmly... Xu Qingluan stumbled to the door, but the Queen was no longer in Qingwa Lane.
-
The autumn wind was bleak, and at the city gate, Jiang Shan called out to Xi He, "Mom."
Xihe looked back: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Shan suddenly stepped forward and hugged her tightly. Xihe was a little stunned, but she quickly reacted and rubbed her daughter's hair, a little amused: "Can't bear to leave me?"
Jiang Shan shook his head and said with a nasal tone: "I just want to tell you that I have fallen in love with someone and I want to take him away."
Xihe: ?????
Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!
Xihe was stunned and subconsciously shouted: "Yuanbao!"
Jiang Shan: “…”
Under the combined force of the two sticks, the new empress finally opened her mouth. It turned out that she had a crush on Gu Qingchen. Before she could finish her words, she was hit on the head with a chestnut.
Xihe said expressionlessly, "I'll give you a chance to reorganize your words."
Jiang Shan: “…”
He covered his head, feeling aggrieved.
Yuanbao was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and panted: "That old guy is just an old cow eating young grass! I'm going to kill him right now!"
Gu Qingchen, who was watching silently from a distance: "..."
Xihe had never expected Gu Qingchen to be so capable, to have quietly seduced her daughter right under her nose!
Her daughter! Her biological daughter!!
Xihe was very annoyed and said with a sullen face: "Where is he? He didn't tell me himself, but let you take the blame?"
Jiang Shan said "Oh", and then without hesitation, he told Gu Qingchen, pointing to a place: "Over there." Then they saw Gu Qingchen walking over with his hands and feet trembling, his face flushed, his eyes evasive.
Xihe was so angry that he strode over and started beating him with a stick without saying a word.
Gu Qingchen endured it silently and did not resist.
Jiang Shan crossed his arms over his chest, calm and composed: "Mom! Be gentle, don't break anything."
Gu Qingchen: “…”
Xihe: “…”
The blow was even heavier.
Xihe didn't let the man go until he was beaten black and blue, but in this way, they couldn't leave for the time being... A group of people returned to the palace in a grand manner and held a wedding for the new queen in a hurry.
The Gu family also came to the wedding.
They looked at the newlyweds surrounded by the crowd, their faces filled with jealousy.
After what happened back then, almost all the members of the Gu family except Gu Qingchen were demoted to commoners, and their lives were not easy. They originally thought that with Gu Qingchen around, they could restore their former glory, but Gu Qingchen was like someone who had taken a love drug, and he ignored their requests and devoted himself to expanding the territory for his enemies.
The Gu family hated the other family, but they hated Gu Qingchen even more, thinking that he had even neglected his own family for the sake of fame and fortune.
What made them even more frightened was that although he was already in his sixties, Gu Qingchen looked only in his early thirties.
monster!
The monster raised by the queen!
Many people know about the existence of the Royal Guards, but no one dares to talk nonsense.
They were both in awe and afraid of the existence of the Royal Guards, but none of them had expected that the new queen would marry such a man. If they really came to a grudge, they would have a grudge against him.
No one understood why the Queen did this, but no one dared to ask.
After all, the Queen's mother had already agreed, so what could outsiders like them say? It didn't matter; they just had to give gifts and blessings.
Apart from beating the guy up that day, Xihe never said a word of opposition afterwards.
She returned to the palace, and together with Yuanbao, they made everyone in the palace run around in circles, decorating the place with red lanterns and red silk. The empress just went to court, and Gu Qingchen wanted to help, but unfortunately he couldn't do anything, so Xihe disliked him and drove him away.
Gu Qingchen was a little panicked and had to ask Jiang Shan for help.
Jiang Shan laughed so hard that he could not stop. After laughing, he comforted him: "Since the Queen Mother did not object at that time, she will not object again in the future, so you can rest assured."
Gu Qingchen felt relieved and couldn't help but smile: "Your Majesty has always been very good."
-
They did not worship heaven and earth, they only worshipped their parents.
After the wedding ceremony, Gu Qingchen was led by Jiang Shan to meet two young men. They looked exactly the same, but could be easily told apart.
Handsome, elegant, and powerful, Gu Qingchen subconsciously tensed his muscles.
Jiang Shan tightened his grip: "Don't be nervous, these are my eldest and second brothers."
The two young men stretched out their hands towards him, but halfway through, they remembered something and changed their posture to a fist cup: "Hello, brother-in-law." Gu Qingchen greeted them in a daze, his mind full of question marks.
In the evening, family dinner,
He also saw with his own eyes that the two young men called Fang Jinrong "mother" and Yuanbao "father".
Gu Qingchen was silent.
