After the general's legitimate daughter was reborn, the ascetic prime minister pinched her wais

The sword suddenly disappeared from his waist, which made him feel unaccustomed to the light weight, but Gao Wenyan did not change back to the old sword.

During the battle with Hu Guangyuan, there was a critical moment when the Hongying gun was knocked out by his strong force. If Cheng Shuang hadn't been in hand, Gao Wenyan would have suffered more than just a slight injury to his arm.

But she still returned Chengshuang to Chu Xu.

The next day when he entered the palace to meet the Holy Emperor, Prince Gong looked much more serious than before. He was wearing a dragon robe and looked indescribably majestic.

He highly praised the Gao family, not only promoted Gao Wenyan, but also allowed her to attend the morning court.

In addition, he issued an important directive.

"All our sons and daughters in Daning can become officials."

This has never happened since the beginning of the dynasty!

For a moment, Gao Wenyan felt his blood boiling, and for the first time he was willing to shout the words "Holy Lord is wise" along with everyone.

Subconsciously looking towards the prime minister's position, he remembered that Chu Xu had not gone to court today.

So the excitement in my heart dimmed a little.

After leaving the court, Gao Wenyan was invited over, saying that the Holy One wanted to see her alone.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw the smiling Prince Gong. How could he look any less majestic than he did in the early morning?

"See Your Majesty."

"No gift."

He gave Gao Wenyan a seat and said with a smile, "But I never thought I would be where I am today."

Gao Wenyan's hand holding the teacup shook and he realized that Prince Gong's temper was really...

Prince Gong seemed to notice her restraint and comforted her: "Why are you and I so unfamiliar?"

How can we not be unfamiliar?

Before, he was an inconspicuous and idle prince, but now he is a high-ranking emperor.

How could Gao Wenyan dare to be casual?

Sighing softly, Prince Gong said: "So this man is really boring."

"If I didn't want to avenge my mother and concubine, I really wouldn't want to sit there."

After taking a sip of tea silently, Gao Wenyan naturally did not dare to answer a word.

Seeing her like this, Prince Gong wanted to tease her.

"Did you know that Chu Xu is my cousin?"

"what?"

Gao Wenyan raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of surprise. Only then did Prince Gong finally feel satisfied.

There was a response.

He held his head lazily and said, "Didn't he tell you?"

Prince Gong's concubine was Chu Xu's aunt. She was framed by Empress Yang, and the entire Lin family was executed, implicating all three clans.

Fortunately, Chu Xu's mother had been fostered by others due to physical reasons since she was a child, so she was not included in the calculation and escaped.

Chu Xu's mother spent all her wealth and tried to fix the relationship, hoping to save the elderly and children at home, but it was still in vain.

Gao Wenyan knew the following story, and Chu Xu suffered a lot for this.

Prince Gong leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Guess how my father died?"

Was it him who killed him or Chu Xu?

Gao Wenyan felt cold all over. Knowing too much was not a good thing. She didn't understand why Prince Gong said this to her.

Suddenly hearing a burst of laughter, Gao Wenyan realized that he had been teased.

However, Prince Gong seemed very happy.

"really weird."

He looked Gao Wenyan up and down and said, "Why does he like you alone?"

Gao Wenyan was stunned for a long time before he realized who the "him" in Prince Gong's mouth was.

"I……"

However, Prince Gong didn't want to hear it. He just turned away and continued: "And he still refuses to admit it."

Gao Wenyan took a breath and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood."

"He is already engaged, why does he like me?"

Sure enough, Prince Gong also knew about it.

He said "Yeah", but asked: "Do you believe it?"
