On the wedding night, Concubine Doctor took two cute treasures and blew up the palace

Hearing this, several people in the yard were stunned.

Gu Mohan's handsome eyebrows frowned slightly. Although his face remained unchanged, his eyes were slightly cold.

The Queen Mother glared at Qin Xiao angrily, "Your Majesty, you haven't been to the Ai family for a long time. If you don't come back, the Ai family will think that you don't remember the way to Huairuo Palace."

"Mother Zhu, give the Emperor some bowls, chopsticks, and a seat."

Aunt Zhu nodded in agreement, "Old slave, I'll make arrangements now."

Qin Xiao looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, but his eyes glanced at Gu Mohan from time to time, "The Queen Mother is right, I haven't been here for only half a month."

"You also know that government affairs are very busy. I either have to deal with one meal in the study every day, or I don't have a few good meals at all. How can I be like Su'er, coming to your place every day to eat and drink."

While she was talking, Aunt Zhu had already asked people to bring in chairs covered with fine gold silk cushions.

Qin Xiao winked at his servants frantically and motioned for them to put the chair next to Gu Mohan.

The Queen Mother turned a blind eye and did not stop her. The palace people understood this and silently put down their chairs and ran away.

Qin Xiao sat down next to Gu Mohan logically, turned his head to look at his son and smiled cheerfully, "Su'er, how are you recovering from your injury?"

Gu Mohan was slightly startled. His feelings towards Qin Xiao had changed since he recovered his memory.

He should be of Tiansheng's bloodline, and his facial features are somewhat similar to the emperor's, but the father in Nishino's memories of more than ten years is not him. He is a little at a loss, and he can no longer be as friendly with him as he was when he lost his memory. Father and son get along.

"Thank you for your concern, Father, I'm recovering well."

Qin Xiao obviously felt that Gu Mohan was a little indifferent to him, and he laughed twice awkwardly, thinking that it was Gu Mohan who was causing trouble.

At this time, the Queen Mother said with some resentment, "You still have the nerve to say that there is no one like you who can be a father."

"Those whips hit Xiao Jiu's body bloody. When the Ai family saw it, their hearts trembled. If Xiao Jiu hadn't been in good health, he wouldn't have been able to withstand such torture."

She seemed to be blaming Qin Xiao, but in fact she was trying to smooth things over for him.

After all, they were father and son, blood was thicker than water, and she didn't want to see the two of them having conflicts.

Qin Xiao also understood the Empress Dowager's intention, and followed the trend and said, "Yesterday, I did punish him a bit harshly, but because I was in front of the ministers at that time, if I didn't establish my prestige, it would be difficult for me to convince the crowd in the future."

The Queen Mother nodded and said, "The Ai family understands that you have always been very kind to Xiaojiu."

As she said that, she looked at Gu Mohan and said, "Xiaojiu, don't worry, the Ai family will support you in this matter. Your father will never dare to punish you like this again in the future."

"It's just that sometimes, when you are in a high position, you have to weigh multiple aspects. You should understand a little bit."

Gu Mohan listened quietly, with calm emotions in his eyes, "Yes, that's what the Imperial Grandmother said."

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Qin Xiao glanced at Gu Mohan helplessly, but he was not discouraged. He served him some food warmly and dotingly, "That's all, let's not talk about those bad things during meal time."

"Come, eat vegetables and eat vegetables."

Gu Mohan squeezed the chopsticks tightly with his knuckled fingers, "Thank you, father."

He had just taken a mouthful of rice when Qin Xiao eagerly served him the soup, "These pork ribs and yam are good for nourishing qi and blood, and they are also warm. Please drink two more bowls today."

The Queen Mother and Aunt Zhu saw this, and their hearts were full of relief.

As the king of a country, Qin Xiao really had nothing to say about his kindness to Gu Mohan.

Gu Mohan also raised his eyebrows. Facing Qin Xiao's love and concern, he had indescribable mixed feelings.

But he still didn't react at all, and responded with an indifferent expression, occasionally adding a word or two.

After finishing the meal, with the bright moon hanging high in the sky, the Queen Mother wiped her mouth and stood up. Aunt Zhu quickly stepped forward to help her, "Okay, Aijia is a little tired and wants to go back and rest first."

"You two, father and son, have a good chat and don't make anyone unhappy over trivial matters." "Yes." Gu Mohan responded softly.

Qin Xiao cast a grateful look at the Queen Mother, "Since you are tired, go back and rest early, and I will have a heart-to-heart talk with Su'er."

"It's been a while since we, father and son, sat down and talked like this."

The Queen Mother and Nanny Zhu left together, and the courtyard instantly became quiet.

The silver moonlight shone lightly on the bluestone bricks. Gu Mohan and Qin Xiao were speechless one after another, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

After a long while, Qin Xiao sighed heavily and looked at Gu Mohan seriously, "Su'er, I have thought about the expedition."

Gu Mohan's eyes were slightly cold, and his angular face was tense, "Have you considered your father's conditions carefully?"

At this moment, Qin Xiao did not have the fierce and solemn temperament he had in the past in the court. His tough face was a bit tired, and he said helplessly, "Well, I can agree to your conditions."

"I understand. You and I are father and son. Although I am the emperor, there is nothing wrong with occasionally compromising with my son."

Gu Mohan raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips, but there was no sign of surprise.

Seeing his reaction, Qin Xiao couldn't help laughing to himself, "I'm afraid you already knew that I would compromise with you, so you were always confident, right?"

Gu Mohan shook his head, "I don't dare."

"Okay, I won't care about this with you." Qin Xiao waved his hands indifferently, his eyes a little more profound with the experience of the world, "Tiansheng's current country was built by me and my fathers. If If possible, I also want to lead the troops myself and win again."

"It's a pity. There are enough trivial matters in Tiansheng now. I can't go out to fight in the mountains. Besides, I am too old to fight. Unlike you young people, you still have unlimited possibilities."

His eyes were a little sad. Gu Mohan stared at him with his eyebrows slightly raised. He poured Qin Xiao a glass of wine and said in a calm tone, "Father is in his prime, so don't say such depressing words."

Qin Xiao patted Gu Mohan's shoulder hard, and said lovingly and with great hope, "You don't need to comfort me. You have to bring the prince back this time."

"Although he has lost face this time, he is still your brother after all."

Gu Mohan nodded in agreement without changing his expression, "I understand."

"Since the father has agreed to my son's conditions, I will naturally do it. But now, I want to see Meng Qianqian first."

At this point, Qin Xiao knew that no matter how hard he tried to stop Gu Mohan and Nan Wanyan from falling in love, the relationship between the two people had been engraved in his heart.

The most urgent task now is to let Gu Mohan send troops to hold off Xiye and Daxia.

He waved his hand, "Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you at Beichen Hall."

"Thank you, father." Gu Mohan glanced at Qin Xiao deeply, then turned and left.

Qin Xiao sat there and drank a glass of wine dully. For some reason, he felt empty in his heart...

Why at this moment, he felt that life was a little boring, especially trivial matters such as fighting, he felt that it was a waste of energy. It was obvious that he was ambitious and had unfulfilled desires in the past...

The usually lifeless Leng Palace was brightly lit tonight. When the guards knew that Gu Mohan was coming, they all bowed respectfully and gave way, "I have seen the Ninth Prince."

Gu Mohan wore a black robe, and the tapestry ribbon around his waist pinched out his strong and muscular waist. His face was slightly pale, but it still couldn't stop his natural nobility and coldness.

He glanced at the guards lightly and said, "Step back."

The guard nodded and waved for the others to leave together.

At that time, Nan Wanyan was leaning against the window in the hall in a daze, completely unaware of Gu Mohan walking slowly behind him.

It wasn't until her waist tightened and the man's hot and suppressed breath came from her neck that she suddenly reacted and resisted subconsciously.

Gu Mohan hugged her from behind, "Wanyan, it's me." (End of Chapter)
