Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

"Mother, how do you ask the child to answer this matter?"

Gu Fan didn't know that Li Changshou and a group of concubines were eavesdropping, and when he heard his mother's question, he almost slapped his forehead and was speechless.

How old is he older than Li Changshou, do you recognize His Majesty as your own father?

Who can agree to this?

The point is, it's a little bit unbelievable!
"Mother knows it's embarrassing for you, it's just..."

Gu Xiaoya also knew that this request was too much, but she didn't want to kiss father and son so they couldn't recognize each other, so she could only use this method to facilitate it.

It's just that caring is chaotic and a little anxious.

"This matter, mother let the child think about it."

Gu Fan took a deep breath. He always felt that this matter was criticized by others, so he could only politely refuse it temporarily.

"Okay, Mother won't force you, but His Majesty will..."

"Mum, don't worry, the child is His Majesty's subject. Besides, His Majesty is kind to the child. As a subject, he is naturally loyal to the emperor and serves the country!"

On this point of principle, Gu Fan's thoughts are very firm.

No matter what the relationship between his mother and Li Changshou is now, he will definitely serve him as a courtier. Could it be that he still wants to be that traitor who has been infamous for thousands of years?
As he spoke, he explained, as if to appease his mother, "In addition, the child has always kept the teachings of his mother these years in mind, and will never do anything wrong that violates the laws of the court."

There is only so much he can do now.

Having said that, Gu Xiaoya can only give up for the time being. What follows is some small talk, the bits and pieces of this year, and Gu Fan's marriage, which naturally affects Gu Xiaoya's concern.

So she couldn't help but asked curiously, "Fan'er, you are not too young now, the men from the aristocratic families in this capital are as old as you, and they have already married, married and had children. Do you have a girl you like now?"

As a parent, it is natural to worry about such things.

Gu Fan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard that, scratched his head and sighed, "Mother, my child hasn't thought about it that much yet."

"How can this work? You will be 23 soon. Do you want His Majesty to help you out? Or do you have a woman you like? This is a powerful family in the capital, even if it is an ordinary woman, as long as you like it, my mother will agree!"

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, but Gu Fan listened to one head and two big ones.

I could only ask for forgiveness, "Mother, my son has just taken office, and His Majesty regards him so highly, how can he be distracted from his care? Let's take it easy..."

"No, listen to your mother and find a woman you like to start a family!"

"Mother!"

"Be obedient! If you don't look for it yourself, mother will let His Majesty help you find one!"

Let the emperor make marriage arrangements for his courtiers?

Gu Fan was originally talking behind the backs of those who were recently appointed officials in the same dynasty. When he heard this, he immediately smiled wryly, "Grandma, please spare the baby. Now many people are talking about the relationship between the baby and His Majesty." , if you ask His Majesty to arrange a marriage for the child again, wouldn't it be spread..."

After listening to Gu Xiaoya, she also felt that it made sense, "What Fan Er said also makes sense, well, I will give you a year to find the woman you like and start a family!"

"what?"

"What, if you are still like this after one year, then let His Majesty give you a marriage directly!"

His arms couldn't beat his thighs, and Gu Fan was an extremely filial person, so he could only bite the bullet and agree in the end.

In just one year, let him find a woman he likes to start a family?

What a joke, he doesn't want to worry about that, but he can't be disobedient, so he can only agree temporarily with ambiguity.

As for a year later, that's another story...

……

"Your Majesty, if you want to make fun of my concubine, just laugh!"

After Gu Fan left the palace, Gu Xiaoya saw Li Changshou's uncontrollable amused expression, and cast a blank glance, "Fan'er's concubine can't be left alone in his marriage."

"Yes, yes, I will rely on you. In this capital, except for the royal family, no matter which daughter he likes, I will personally give him a marriage, so that he can marry a wife, have children, and start a family!"

Li Changshou agreed with all his heart that there are only a handful of civil and military officials in the dynasty who can make him take it to heart and give him a marriage in person, and Gu Fan must bear the brunt of it.

"This is your majesty, you personally agreed?"

"As soon as I open my golden mouth, I promise everything!"

Anyway, he also believed in that kid Gu Fan, as long as he didn't hit him with a gun, it would be fine for other things even if he wanted three wives and four concubines.

Gu Xiaoya listened with satisfaction, and she also knew that some things were impossible, so she hoped that Gu Fan could find a good marriage to start a family and a career, and she would have a lot of children and grandchildren in the future.

"Ya'er, you see that I have already promised you, do you want to show it?"

"How does Your Majesty want your concubines to express themselves?"

"You see, Gu Fan has been lonely since he was a child, and he doesn't have any relatives. If he can have more brothers and sisters, don't you think so?"

Li Changshou chuckled, and Gu Xiaoya instantly understood that her pretty face was blushing and she was about to turn around and run away, but she had no chance to be hugged and taken back by Li Changshou, "Your Majesty, wouldn't it be a joke to spread the word that all the concubines are old?" ..."

"I don't see who dares to laugh at you, a noble concubine! It's against them!"

"Oh! Your Majesty, you... are ashamed to death!"

Li Changshou didn't care much about human relations and important matters.

Gu Xiaoya had no choice but to push back. She knew a long time ago that from the moment she learned the truth, she would never be able to refuse Li Changshou. That little bit of resistance was just a woman's reserve...

……

Late at night, the palace.

Unlike the first emperor, and even the previous emperors of the Daqian Dynasty, Li Changshou didn't like the layout of the palace very much.

In particular, this harem compound always gives people a deserted feeling, so he prefers it to be crowded with people like when he was in Jiangdong Lin'an back then.

"How is the situation in Yanzhou?"

Gu Xiaoya returned to Beijing from Yanzhou, so she naturally knew the situation there best.

Although Li Changshou had confirmed through the system and the Imperial City Secretary that the situation was not too bad, he was naturally concerned about who made Wei Zhaojun stay at Wei's house in Yanzhou and not come back.

"When the concubine came back, the situation was not that bad. It seems that Mobei's southward trip this time is not in a hurry to take advantage of the fire, but more like..."

Gu Xiaoya recalled what she saw in Yanzhou, and she hesitated to speak.

"Test? Harassment?"

Li Changshou answered for her.

"Your Majesty guessed?"

Gu Xiaoya was a little surprised, and then nodded lightly, "The Wei family has been guarding the border all these years, but they have always been hostile to the enemy. He made Guo Peng a very good personal friend."

The implication is that compared with the situation in Yanzhou today, the greater hidden danger lies in the surrounding Jiedu envoys compared to the invasion of foreign enemies to the south.

Now Shannan Jiedu Envoy Guo Peng openly rebelled for the second time. Although Hedong Jiedu Envoy and Shuofang Jiedu Envoy did not rebel, the imperial court ordered them to send troops to assist the imperial court to suppress Guo Peng.

But to this day, the two Jiedu envoys have found various reasons to stay put.

This time, Li Changshou once again ordered the two to send troops to reinforce the Yanzhou border, and ordered the Wei family to control all soldiers and horses with a single imperial decree.

It's an ultimatum.

If he refused to obey the order again, then Li Changshou was going to take the knife directly.

If the order is to increase the number of troops, it will be logical for the Wei family to seize the soldiers and horses in the hands of the two Jiedu envoys.

It's just that Gu Xiaoya didn't know about these plans before.

"Ya'er thinks this time, how will the Jiedu Envoy of Hedong and the Jiedu Envoy of Shuofang choose?"

Li Changshou asked with a smile, combining work and rest is the way to maintain one's health, but Gu Xiaoya suffered a lot. In order to protect herself, she even dragged the other sisters into the water. Now one or two are exhausted.

"That depends on whether Demon Sect is willing to truly obey His Majesty's wishes."

Magic door!

Who would have imagined that the Jiedu envoys of Hedong and Shuofang are also secretly involved in the Momen.

Although the two were not from the Demon Sect, they were controlled by the Demon Sect with beauty and poison many years ago. They had no loyalty at all, and now Li Changshou deliberately gave the Demon Sect a chance to express their views.

"Based on your knowledge of Demon Sect, what kind of decision will they make?"

Li Changshou is very curious. Unlike Xianmen who likes to stand on the moral high ground, he will always support and depend on the most powerful party.

The Demon Sect has always been ambitious, and there are open and secret struggles inside. Otherwise, in terms of overall strength, the Demon Sect is obviously better than the Immortal Sect.

But in fact, the fierce fighting between the Demon Sect has also caused the Demon Sect to have no achievements in the past hundreds of years.

"Does Your Majesty want to know the decision of Demon Gate, or do you want to know her decision more?"

"I trust the queen mother."

He believed in Zhou Huier?

A year ago, Li Changshou himself scoffed.

Now, he has to admit that Zhou Huier's heart is with him. Of course, now it depends on whether Zhou Huier will really fight against the devil for him. Only then can he be completely his.

Otherwise, Li Changshou always felt that he could not sleep or eat well, and he was reluctant to kill him, and he was worried about what might happen in the future if he didn't kill him.

Between him and the Demon Gate, one must choose between the two, there is the Demon Gate but no other, and there is him without the Demon Gate!

unless……

"Your Majesty, please take pity on my concubine~"

and many more!

what's the situation?
Li Changshou was a little dazed. He had a tired face just now, and now he suddenly showed fighting spirit, and wanted to fight him?
Of course, how could Li Changshou refuse such a challenge?

Naturally, he readily accepted it, and he also vaguely guessed why Gu Xiaoya suddenly had high fighting spirit, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the witches of the Demon Sect are indeed tough!
Lin Luoxi is like this, Gu Xiaoya is like this, I really don't know if Zhou Huier is also...

【Ding!The host successfully aroused Gu Xiaoya's strong fighting spirit and vengeance, boosted her skills, and rewarded 50000 system points]

Li Changshou: "???"

Opening the system, Gu Xiaoya's skill realm has reached the peak of the Tianpin Great Master, and is in a stage of breaking through, as if she might rush to land gods at any time.

What did he do?

Didn't it just talk about the queen mother Zhou Hui'er, which made Gu Xiaoya bloody?
and many more!

If Gu Xiaoya suddenly broke through and became a land god, would she run out of the palace in the middle of the night tonight to seek revenge on Zhou Huier at the Ganye Temple?
A picture suddenly popped up in Li Changshou's mind. Under the night, two witches from the demon sect were charming but murderous. Both sides wanted to kill each other.

The former imperial concubine and the current imperial concubine, tsk tsk!

The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!
