My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

After signaling to the wet nurse behind him, he took Du Jingyi two steps forward, saluted again and said.

I've met my empress.

Du Jingyi also nodded slightly, very politely.

However, when the four children saw the queen, their big eyes showed some curiosity.

Now that Brother Tai has grown up, he originally looked very similar to Marshal Gu, but now it seems that even his aura has gradually become closer. Empress Guo's heart moved when she saw it, and the tip of her nose felt a little sore. Then she waved to him gently and kindly. said.

Brother Tai, come and take a look at this palace.

Brother Tai didn't have any stage fright. He walked forward, followed the rules of the two days of school, saluted respectfully and said.

Gu Yunzhan has met the Queen and asked her to be kind to you.

He may not understand what this sentence means, but he repeats it every day, so he doesn't say a word wrong.

Okay, okay, okay, I'm fine. But you, did you feel uncomfortable on the way back from Jinling?

Brother Tai shook his head, then showed an expression that only a child could have, and said with a smile.

Brother Tai is not dizzy when he rides on a big boat. He is very beautiful.

Although his words were not completely coherent, everyone understood the meaning, and Queen Guo looked at him with great emotion.

If Marshal Gu and Mrs. Gu were still alive, they would be happy to see such a lovely great-grandson.

Queen Guo's words made everyone present feel nostalgic, but the past has passed away, and old friends have passed away, so many things can only be kept in the heart and cannot be replaced again.

Wiping the corners of her eyes, Queen Guo said to ease the atmosphere.

Look, on this great day, I started to feel sad. The three brothers also came over. Let me see if they look alike?

After finishing speaking, Du Jingyi and Gu Shaoyu pulled the three brothers forward. The three of them didn't speak fluently, so they just said like little Fuwa, holding hands and bowing.

My queen is safe.

Queen Guo took a closer look, which provoked everyone nearby who had never seen the three brothers to look over curiously. She saw that although the three brothers were born at the same time, they were not very similar, whether in size or appearance. Or his expression and temperament.

What are they called?

Go back to my wife, the eldest brother is Brother Ming, the second child is Brother Cong, and the third child is Brother Wen. They were all given to me when my grandmother was here.

Gu Shaoyu explained, pointing to the child and telling Queen Guo.

Queen Guo nodded and answered.

Brother Ming looks like your wife, Brother Cong looks like you, but for a moment I can't tell who Brother Wen looks like?

Hui Niangniang, she is Xiangchen's father-in-law. If the two of them were present, you would recognize him at a glance.

I see, you and your wife will have a child. One child will look like your great-grandfather, one will look like your maternal grandfather, one will look like your father, and one will look like your mother. You will get the benefits of both families. You are a blessed child.

Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi naturally wanted to thank the Queen for such praise.

However, the talent bowed slightly and was stopped by Queen Guo.

I've invited you here to have a reunion dinner. Don't just bow and kneel. If you're too reserved, you'll be offended.

yes.

After saying this, Queen Guo glanced at Eunuch Hu behind her. He clapped his hands and eight maids entered the hall. There were various rewards in the lacquer trays in their hands. Then Queen Guo raised her hand to the palace maid on the right in front.

The palace maid understood the situation and came forward and stretched out the lacquer plate. There were four boxes inside, and inside were four huge pearls of about the same size.

But one of them was particularly white and round, looking like a crystal clear bead from a close look. Gu Shaoyu frowned slightly when he saw the bead, let alone the others.

The one in the middle is the Sui Marquis' Pearl. I have been keeping it since I got it a few years ago. Now I gave it to Brother Tai. It can be regarded as a gift from me to congratulate him on winning the title of Duke of the Gu family. As for the other three, they are also rare. If you see the Pearl of the East China Sea, give it to the three brothers to enjoy.

Your Majesty, the Sui Marquis' Pearl is too precious, please...

Before Gu Shaoyu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Queen Guo, who waved her hand and said.

It's just a bead. No matter how precious it is, it can't be as important as the Gu family's affection for Yu Daxing, right, Crown Prince.

The prince who was suddenly called was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly stepped forward and said.

What the Queen Mother said is, Shao Yu, don't refuse, just accept it.

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu also knew that he couldn't refuse this time, so he had no choice but to accept it. Although Du Jingyi didn't know much about the story behind the Sui Marquis Pearl, he knew when his general refused like this that it must be a hot deal. of potato.

Sure enough, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed through the Crown Princess' narrowed eyes.

The Pearl of the Marquis of Sui Dynasty, such a precious thing, was given to the son of the Gu family as a reward by the Queen Mother. Naturally, she was unhappy, but no matter how unhappy she was, she would not put it openly, so when she looked up again, her face was still There was a faint smile, as if the emotion just now had never happened before.

Okay, don't be restrained. The peach blossoms are blooming outside. Let's go and take a look. It's rare for father and mother to come to the palace. I just want to talk to them.

Yes, concubine.

After receiving the queen's order, everyone naturally went to the garden of Changchun Palace to watch the peach blossoms in full bloom. As for Guo Xiang and Mrs. Guo, they stayed in the main hall and talked with the queen.

After exiting, Du Jingyi asked quietly.

General, what's the point of this bead...

The Pearl of the Sui Dynasty is the most precious treasure of Daxing. When the prince got married, everyone thought that this pearl would be given to the prince and his concubine, but it turned out not to be the case. I didn't expect that it was given to Brother Tai today. I was just afraid that he was young. Even with such a generous gift, someone will always have other thoughts.

Gu Shaoyu's tone was full of worry, and Du Jingyi became uneasy after knowing the whole story. He looked at his innocent and lively son beside him, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be happy or confused.

In the main hall, there were only three Queen Guo, Prime Minister Guo and Mrs. Guo.

And Guo Xiang also sighed and said.

Why do you have to be like this, your Majesty? Those beads...

Father, that bead was originally given to the daughter by the Gu family. Now it should be returned to the Gu family, right?

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Guo suddenly felt a sore nose.

The bead was originally an heirloom of the Gu family. It was originally given to Queen Guo because it was a token of love between the Gu family uncle and her, but she didn't expect that they would get married by accident.

Therefore, the bead was the only thing around Queen Guo that was related to the Gu family. Now that it was returned to Brother Tai, Xiang Guo and Mrs. Guo always felt a little uneasy. (End of chapter)
