First Lady of the Crown Prince

 Chapter 751 Major Discovery (1st update)

 At nightfall, the lights of the Imperial Master's Palace gradually light up.

Xiao Jingkong went to play leaf cards with Shangguan Yan. He was bored, and Shangguan Yan was bored too, so he taught Shangguan Yan and two Guoshidian disciples the card skills he learned from his aunt.

 It’s just right for four people to share a table.

  In Xiao Heng's wing, four people and one bird gathered together.

The bird is Xiaojiu, and it is responsible for keeping watch. Although no one is watching them in the Imperial Palace, they must be on guard against others.

Gu Jiao, Xiao Heng, Gu Changqing and Gu Chengfeng were sitting around the table.

Gu Changqing said: "Have you heard about the affairs of the Mu and Han families?"

The three of them nodded in unison.

 It was hard not to hear about the news. Not to mention that Xiao Heng was the emperor's eldest grandson. It was not easy to find out such news.

 “The Mu family handed over the military talisman to protect Old Mrs. Mu.” Xiao Heng said.

"The consequences of kidnapping a princess are so serious?" Gu Chengfeng was a little stunned. "Our Majesty, Zhaoguo, was hunted down and was not so mobilized."

Gu Changqing said: "It's different."

 The Emperor of Zhao State was a benevolent emperor, while His Majesty Yan State was a tyrant. Their behavior styles were completely different.

 And the King of Yan also did this to scare the monkeys.

The ten major aristocratic families have been pretending to be peaceful for many years, but a little princess blew up all the monsters and monsters.

If the monarch doesn't come to suppress them with a single move, these people are afraid that they will get slapped in the nose. Anyway, the cost of being a monster is not high, so they can take turns to be a monster.

Xiao Heng said calmly: "The military talismans of the Mu family are in the hands of the King of Dayan. They will not be handed over to any aristocratic family in the short term. A competent commander from the top ten aristocratic families and the Nangong family may be assigned."

Gu Changqing nodded in agreement and said: "Put aside the military power of the Mu family for now. The only one we have hope for now is the Black Wind Cavalry of the Han family."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw three people looking at him.

He was slightly startled: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Gu Chengfeng asked: "Brother, did we say we were going to fight for the Han family's Black Wind Cavalry?"

Gu Changqing asked back: "Don't you fight for it?"

 “Fight for it.” Gu Jiao said, her eyes were very determined.

 “Why?” Gu Chengfeng looked at her doubtfully.

Gu Jiao stared at it and said: "There is no reason, I just feel that I should fight for it, otherwise I may regret it."

 This is a very strange intuition.

 Ever since I suspected that Jingkong was related to the Xuanyuan family, this intuition has become stronger and stronger.

If you fight, it may be dangerous, but if you don’t fight, it will only be more dangerous!

Xiao Heng analyzed: "In addition to Han Ye, the Han family also has many outstanding children. There are many talents in the family, and their chances of winning are still very high. Moreover, the rules this time are obviously in favor of the Han family."

 To get the Black Wind Cavalry, you need to pass three competitions, two of which are related to riding skills, and riding skills and war horses are the strengths of the Han family.

Even if the advantage is so tilted towards the Han family, Your Majesty still wants to win over many of the Han family's children. What does "many" mean? That means a narrow victory is not enough, but a complete victory!

 Win the hearts of the people! The winner has nothing to say!

 He paused and looked at Gu Changqing: "What's the Han family's plan?"

Gu Changqing replied: "The Han family has selected ten children, including the children of the main family and the descendants of the clan."

Gu Chengfeng's eyes widened: "So many? Aren't there only two quotas for one aristocratic family?"

Xiao Heng said: "It should have been inherited by the Han family, but it is unreasonable for everyone to compete. We must take care of the Han family no matter what."

Gu Chengfeng curled his lips and said: "He is a tyrant, is he still afraid of people saying that he is a tyrant? He is tyrannizing while at the same time establishing himself as a benevolent king."

 Everyone was puzzled by the king's behavior.

Gu Changqing said: "The prince gave me a quota and asked me to participate as a descendant of the Han family. My task is to wear down my opponents and keep the Han family from advancing."

Gu Chengfeng sneered: "It's a beautiful idea!"

Gu Jiao thought for a moment and nodded: "Well, I can have this."

Gu Chengfeng looked at Gu Jiao: "Are you going to participate?"

 Gu Jiao: "Yeah."

Gu Chengfeng said seriously: "Then I'll go too!"

Gu Jiao said calmly: "You'd better forget it. With your three-legged cat skills, you were beaten off the stage in just two strokes."

Gu Chengfeng was furious: "Who are you looking down on!"

“I’d better go,” Gu Jiao said.

Gu Changqing glanced at his sister and hesitated to speak.

Gu Jiao asked strangely: "What's wrong?"

Gu Changqing said: "Have you been in Yan country for so long that you have forgotten that you are actually from Zhao country?"

Yan chose the cavalry commander and only allowed his own people to participate.

Gu Jiao: Well, I really forgot.

 …

 Purple bamboo forest.

 A disciple is cleaning fallen leaves in the front yard of a small bamboo house.

Gu Jiao walked over.

 She looked outside the courtyard for a while, but didn't see anything special, so she called the disciple: "Little Master."

The disciple stopped what he was doing and turned sideways. When he saw it was Gu Jiao, he greeted him politely: "Master Xiao."

"Remember me?" Gu Jiao curled her lips, "Is the Imperial Master here?"

The disciple smiled shyly: "I just went out."

It’s so strange, it’s obviously a man smiling at him, why is he shy?

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows: "Oh, when will he come back?"

Disciple said: "It doesn't seem to be long. The master of the state didn't let us take away his chessboard. He should come over to play soon."

 Gu Jiao: “Thank you very much.”

 She then fell silent and waited silently.

The disciple scanned the fallen leaves twice and spoke again: "Master Xiao, are you going to wait here for the return of the Imperial Master?"

Gu Jiao said: "Yes, I have something to ask him about."

The disciple said: "Then please come into the house and wait."

 Can I still go inside and wait?

 Gu Jiao walked into the courtyard obediently, leaving her shoes on the steps. Wearing white footwear, she stepped on the spotless floor and entered the main room.

The disciple invited her to sit down on the guest's mat and poured her a cup of herbal tea: "Master Xiao, please have some tea."

Gu Jiao took the teacup: "Thank you, you don't have to entertain me. I can just wait by myself while you go and do your work."

 “Mr. Xiao, please feel free to do so.”

 After saying that, the disciple opened the curtain and went out.

Gu Jiao touched her chin, but she didn't even explain anything, so you can trust me so much?

It’s strange that Gu Jiao would sit here honestly.

 Finally, it’s hard to come to the National Master’s home base. How can we not pay an in-depth visit?

There is only one disciple in the yard at present. He is sweeping the yard seriously. He has only swept a small part of the yard. It will take a while for everyone to sweep the whole yard.

Gu Jiao quietly stood up and walked around the main room.

 The main room is empty, and there is nothing that can provide any information. However, there is a small study room on the east side.

Gu Jiao quietly pushed open the door of the study room, and a smell of bookish smell came to her nostrils.

 The window is open and the light is good.

 The furnishings are also simple, with only a row of bookshelves, a bookcase, a desk and a Duobao grid.

 Gu Jiao has learned the Yan language well and can read without difficulty, but these are all Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs, which gives her a headache.

 Soon, she was attracted by the toys on Duobaoge.

 That’s right, it’s a toy.

 Mini version of a small wooden knife, a small wooden sword, a small bow and arrow, a small meteor hammer, a small nine-section whip and a small red tassel gun.

No, the exclusive small weapons she made for Xiao Qingkong are not that comprehensive.

 Is the Imperial Master so childlike?

 Who is it for?

Not long after, Gu Jiao found a nailed-up picture album next to these small weapons.

 She thought that the collection of calligraphy and paintings collected by the Imperial Master were all the calligraphy and paintings of famous teachers, but when she opened them, she saw that they were all the graffiti of children.

 “Huh? What is this?”

Gu Jiao put down the booklet and picked up the scroll in another grid.

 She took off the ribbon and spread it out. It was a portrait of a little baby girl.

 Fair and clean, with delicate and lovely facial features.

Gu Jiao admired it for a moment: "Well, it's quite pretty."

There were more than a dozen scrolls in the grid. Gu Jiao looked at them all and found that they were the same person, from a baby girl to a girl. Gu Jiao seemed to have seen this person growing up in front of her eyes.

“Why do I think this little girl looks familiar? Have I seen her before?”

 The portrait was finished when he was about seven or eight years old.

“Has there ever been a female disciple in the Imperial Master’s Palace?” Gu Jiao was extremely confused.

　　If she is not a disciple of the Imperial Preceptor, then who is this little girl?

 Couldn’t it be a daughter secretly conceived with another person?

 Otherwise it would be difficult to explain why there is such a thing here.

 In addition to the portrait of the little girl, Gu Jiao also found a portrait in the largest cabinet in Duobaoge.

 The painting shows a soldier wearing black armor, tall and handsome, holding a red tassel spear in his hand.

 The person in the portrait has no facial features.

However, Gu Jiao recognized the red-tasseled spear, which was Xuanyuan Li's magic weapon.

 So...this person is Xuanyuan Li?

 There is a line of words below the portrait - Recalling old friends, February 19th, Bingshen year.

Are the Imperial Master and Xuanyuan Li old friends?

In addition, Gu Jiao also discovered an interesting thing - a clay courtyard. There were three clay figures sitting under the peach tree in the courtyard, toasting and drinking.

The three of them were not embarrassed, and their clothes were men's long robes that can be seen everywhere on the street.

Gu Jiao touched her chin and thought to herself, one is the national preceptor, one is Xuanyuan Li, and the other...can't be the monarch, right?

 These three people were sworn brothers in the past?

 “Master National Preceptor!”

 Suddenly a disciple’s voice came from the door.

The double event is still going on, remember to vote for the monthly ticket.
