Rebirth of marriage

"When my father was in the capital, he would go into the mountains to collect herbs every once in a while. He used this as a way to relax, so he found a secluded cave to make some arrangements as a place to stay.

He once told me about this cave. This time I went to the mountain and went to the cave. I found a medical record hidden by my father, which contained information about the emperor. Lin Shu explained, his hand had already turned to the page where the emperor was recorded, and he pointed it out to Gu Xiao.

The medical record was very simple and Gu Xiao could understand it at a glance, but the content surprised him.

The emperor took the sterilization pill in the second month after his birth.

He asked Lin Shu, "Does this sterilization drug prevent fertility for life, or is it short-term?"

"The sterilization pill was developed by my father. He once said that if a man takes it, he will never be able to get a woman pregnant again. However, this is a world where men are superior to women. This medicine is not accepted by the world, and my father has never made it public.

My mother almost died during childbirth when I was born. My father did not want my mother to go through the pain of childbirth again, so he took the sterilization pill. My mother never became pregnant again.

But it is not known whether any other doctors can understand this. "

Gu Xiao's face was a little pale. He thought of the child that his mother-in-law had miscarried. He thought that the two of them were very loving back then and had never separated from each other, but it was not until he was five years old that his mother-in-law became pregnant again.

Could it be that the mother-in-law is not pregnant with his child?

But how is it possible, the mother-in-law loves him so much.

He tried hard to recall how he looked when he knew his mother-in-law was pregnant, and the more he thought about it, the paler his face became.

Lin Shu winked at Xie Jiu and retreated first.

The people of Great Xia all knew that the second prince and the same mother as Prince Xiao had an abortion after only four months in the imperial concubine's belly. Because of the emperor's deep love for the imperial concubine, he did not know whether the fetus was a boy or a girl. That child was given the title of second prince.

But the elder brother saw with his own eyes that his mother and concubine aborted the child on the wedding day of the emperor and Empress Cao. During the emperor's wedding, their mother and son were locked in the room, and the elder brother had no way to call for help.

The emperor lived a harmonious life with his new wife, but their mother and son were abandoned and framed. In the end, the imperial concubine went crazy and died of self-harm. The elder brother resented the emperor's unkindness and unrighteousness.

But if the imperial concubine betrayed the emperor first, then it would be difficult for my brother to accept the truth that subverted his previous understanding. At this time, it is better to let Xie Jiu stay with him.

Lin Shu gently closed the door and sighed. The sterilization pills prepared by his father were not easy to cure. The second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince were not the emperor's.

I just wonder how the emperor managed to hide his infertility from others all these years. Could it be that his father had tampered with it?So what happened to the third and fourth princes?

Lin Shu shook her head. These were not things she should consider. What she should consider was preparing some life-saving pills for her brother and Xie Jiu, as well as some poisons that could defeat the enemy.

"Ah Xiao, no matter what their grudges are, the emperor has ignored you all these years. He has been a derelict father. Your resentment is not wrong." Xie Jiu patted Gu Xiao's back and comforted him.

She knew how much this truth shocked Gu Xiao. The person she always thought was hurt might actually have made a mistake first. The person she always thought was heartless was the one who was betrayed.

But no matter what the truth is, the emperor should not anger Gu Xiao, and thanking him for drinking will not change his view of the emperor.

"I have a nickname." Gu Xiao's voice was low and dark.

He took Xie Jiu into his arms and hugged her hard, as if to draw strength from her, "My mother is pregnant with me, and he is a father for the first time. He is very happy and often asks the kitchen to prepare delicious food for my mother. , causing the fetus to be too large. When the doctor discovered it in the later stages of pregnancy, the mother-in-law's appetite was already large.

My mother-in-law cried hungry in the middle of the night because she was on a diet. She was also worried about starving me, so she secretly asked the maid to bring me food. As the doctor said, the labor was difficult and took two days and two nights. Fortunately, there was no danger.

When my mother-in-law was pregnant with me, she didn’t gain much weight, but I weighed ten pounds, so they privately gave me a nickname, Ten Jin. "

He vaguely remembered that he often teased him with this name. Every time, his mother-in-law would blame him, so he would hold him with one arm and his mother-in-law with the other, and beg for mercy with a smile, "I was wrong, and I won't do it again." .”

At that time, they were clearly in love, so how could it be...

Xie Jiu's hand paused. Therefore, the emperor really took the sterilization pill because the imperial concubine had a difficult delivery and did not want her to go through the hell of giving birth again. He was determined that he would never let the imperial concubine get pregnant again, so he said he would never do it again. .

Does the imperial concubine know about this?

Gu Xiao rubbed his head in her neck, "After my concubine became pregnant, she vomited violently. It happened that he was not in Beijing during those days. Grandma told me that my concubine has a little brother in her belly. I am very happy. Mother But the concubine said that she would tell him when her brother is three months old.

Later, when he returned to Beijing, people from the uncle's house brought a foreign man to the palace and said that his mother-in-law had an affair with the man. The mother-in-law then informed him of the pregnancy. He was not happy, and even left her and turned away. . "

At that time, he was young and only knew that his father had misunderstood his mother and concubine, so he hugged his legs and told him that the man was brought in by his grandmother, and that his mother and concubine had nothing to do with him.

But he ordered Zhao Debao to pull him away. From then on, father and son were never close to each other again.

Many memories have been blurred, but according to his memory, the mother-in-law had no guilty conscience, otherwise she would not have scolded him for being heartless after aborting the child. In the mother-in-law's consciousness, the child was his.

Gu Xiao gathered his emotions and raised his head from Xie Jiu's neck, "Maybe there is something I don't know about. I would like to find an opportunity to go to the palace and ask him in person."

The emperor who was mentioned by Gu Xiao was currently sitting in front of the third prince's bed, sighing, "You and I are father and son, and the father should have set an example for you by setting an example for you with the majesty of a father.

But today, my father doesn't care about being laughed at by you, and wants to have a heart-to-heart relationship with you and his son. Even if my father doesn't say anything, you are so smart, and you can see how useless your emperor, the emperor, is in front of your mother and your uncle.

Third child, my father doesn’t want you to follow in his footsteps. Back then, your uncles fought fiercely among themselves for that position. In addition, your imperial grandfather was lingering on his bed at that time. The emperor’s power was weak, but the Cao family took the opportunity to grow.

The father was temporarily pushed to this position, and many things were restricted. Fortunately, the foundation of the late emperor was still there, and there were many ministers loyal to the imperial power. The father was barely able to equal the power of the Cao family.

But if you continue to rely on the Cao family and marry a wife who puts the Cao family first in everything like your mother, my father is worried that my Gu family will eventually change our surname, and you will eventually become a puppet. This is a situation that my father will not be able to rest in peace until he dies. thing. "

"Father." The third prince has also thought a lot in the past few days. The emperor's words just now were all in his heart, and he saw the emperor's defeated look of being suppressed and powerless by the Cao family and his mother.

Thinking about his future self from this, he hurriedly said, "Father, don't worry, I will marry Yunjiao's cousin. Father is true to his word, how can he go back on his promise to get married?"

His father's current confrontation with the Cao family is paving the way for him in the future. He cannot openly offend the Cao family yet, but with his father in front of him, he only needs to be a filial and obedient son.

"I feel so relieved that you are so awake." The emperor rubbed his head kindly. After all, he was just the son of a groom. No matter how hard the empress and the Cao family taught him, he would not be much smarter.

But he learned a lot about the viciousness of the Cao family. He said warmly, "Third brother, do you know why your father wanted to keep your uncle and his children?"

The third prince was influenced by the empress and the Cao family, so he didn't have much respect for the emperor in his heart. But after all, he was still a son of man. It was the first time he was treated with such kindness by the emperor. What the emperor's warm palms conveyed to his scalp was father's love. It was him. I was very envious of what my fourth brother had.

He showed an obedient expression and shook his head, "I would like to listen to my father's teachings."

"For the name of the emperor, the support of the people is the basis for the emperor to secure his position. It's not that my father is not worried that they will also have ambitions, but keeping them will make my father a wise king praised by the people. If they take action, it will be Being treasonous will not be recognized by the people.

Third child, you are the only three of my father’s children. Have you ever seen your father and Prince Xiao get close to each other in these years?We have become strangers to each other for a long time, and King Xiao has never been an obstacle to you.

This time he was poisoned, and the poison occurred just when you and the fourth child appeared. Outsiders will think that you are narrow-minded and cannot tolerate your seriously injured brother. These things will become your stain in the future. Think about it carefully. Who will benefit from this? Well, you can rest easy, and your father will still have to apologize to your mother. "

He sighed heavily and left the third prince's bedroom.

Returning to the censor's room, he ordered, "Let him go to the queen tonight and tell him that this is the last time. What I promised him will be fulfilled soon."
