Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Hearing this, Gu Zhao also felt happy.

Although he didn't know what it was, Gu Zhao was in a very good mood because he could make his mother so happy.

After sitting with Princess Zhaoyang in the yard for a while, Gu Zhao helped Princess Zhaoyang go to the study.

Seeing the paintings drawn by Gu Zhao and Qin Chen in the study, Princess Zhaoyang said with a smile.

"This painting was drawn by you, right? It's in the same style as the one you gave to your mother."

"Yes."

Princess Zhaoyang spoke for a while, then looked at the servants and said.

"You go and guard the door."

"Yes."

Soon, Princess Zhaoyang's female guards went to the door, and Gu Zhao's men also retreated.

Everyone was outside looking in, wary of anyone approaching and eavesdropping.

"Mother received the news that your elder brother is still alive."

what?

Hearing this, Gu Zhao looked at Princess Zhaoyang in surprise, his heart unable to contain his excitement.

"It's great that my big brother is still alive."

"Your elder brother was seriously injured and disfigured in that battle. He was in a coma for several days and only recovered a few days ago..."

Listening to her mother's words, Gu Zhao's mind flashed back to that scene, and she felt extremely sad and distressed.

Disfigurement, coma, these words are easy to say, but when you really encounter them, it is heartbreaking...

"Just stay alive."

Gu Zhao said these four words.

When Princess Zhaoyang heard her daughter's words, she also said with a smile on her face.

"Mother thinks so too. It would be great if your elder brother were still alive..."

"How is Big Brother's injury recovering now?"

"Although his injuries were serious, he has recovered a lot after a few months of recuperation."

Gu Zhao was even happier when she heard that Brother Yun had recovered a lot. She was really afraid of hearing bad news.

"Mother, when will big brother come back?"

Hearing her daughter ask this, Princess Zhaoyang said.

"He is investigating the truth at the border. When he finds out the truth, he has other things to do. He cannot restore his identity in a short period of time... Mother only told you about this matter. She didn't even tell your mother-in-law..."

The fact that the eldest son is alive must be kept secret from everyone.

She didn't even tell Old Madam Qin and Lady Qin.

Hearing his mother's words, Gu Zhao nodded.

"Don't worry, mother. Your daughter will keep it a secret."

Hearing her daughter's words, Princess Zhaoyang smiled and touched her daughter's face.

"Mother believes in you."

Princess Zhaoyang asked about Qin Zhao again.

"Mother heard that the bandits were wiped out, why hasn't he come back yet?"

Hearing his mother ask this, Gu Zhao said with a smile.

"The Emperor heard that they found a lot of treasures in the bandit's lair, so he asked him to escort them back. Because of these things, they walked a little slower than usual..."

After hearing Gu Zhao's words, the smile on Princess Zhaoyang's face suddenly faded a lot.

How could she not know where these treasures and gold and silver would go after they were returned? She also received news that the emperor had ordered the imperial teacher to return.

During these days, she went to the palace once or twice. She went to her mother's palace and met the emperor's sister-in-law. Every time, when her emperor brother heard that she had entered the palace, he would come to see her.

Princess Zhaoyang also heard that the emperor was taking elixirs again, and these days, good news came from two concubines in the palace.

When the emperor's brother learned that the concubines were pregnant, he generously rewarded the two pregnant concubines.
