famous eldest daughter

Chapter 405
Gu Yuqing felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this.

The same son...

Looking at Xiao Ke's ten-year-old face, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but think that her brother was probably as tall as he was now... If he wasn't with his biological parents, would he also be treated unfairly?
Especially because of his rebirth and knowing how good Xiao Ke was, Gu Yuqing's heartache for him became even stronger.

Xiao Ke's face remained unchanged, and he didn't even blink. After the emperor's words fell, he said seriously like a minister answering the emperor's question: "I don't dare to lie."

But the more he looked like he was used to it, the stronger the feelings that were touched in Gu Yuqing's heart became.

As this feeling gradually became stronger, she ignored whether Xiao Ke's sudden appearance at this moment was really just a coincidence.

The emperor signaled, Xiao Ke took a breath and said slowly: "I heard the second emperor brother said, let Mrs. He rest assured that everything will be fine with him taking care of her. Because of the distance, my son couldn't hear clearly, Only a few incoherent sentences were faintly heard."

"Today is thanks to that old man Gu Zhen. He will definitely avenge this deep enmity..."

Speaking of Gu Zhen, Gu Yuqing found that Xiao Ke's usually steady voice trembled for a moment, extremely slightly. If she hadn't been watching him carefully because of the throbbing in her heart just now, she would never have noticed it.

When Xiao Ke said this, Xiao Duo suddenly twitched his eyebrows, turned around suddenly, and almost roared in anger, "What nonsense are you talking about? How have I ever said such a thing? How have I never said that to Gu Zhen."

Emotionally excited, Xiao Duo waved his fists and his eyes were about to burst. If he hadn't been in the imperial study room, he would have almost jumped up and beat Xiao Ke severely.

After such a confrontation just now, he was able to maintain a stable mood, but now his eyes were red and bloodshot, indicating the huge emotional fluctuations in his heart.

Gu Yuqing's heart suddenly trembled and she looked towards Xiao Yu.

Every time she looked at Xiao Yu, those gentle eyes always gave her a look as if they were waiting for her.

Meeting Gu Yuqing's doubtful gaze, Xiao Yu shook his head slightly, signaling her to calm down.

Gu Yuqing's thoughts were greatly moved, and her heart was turning over and over again, savoring the meaning of Xiao Ke's words.

Xiao Yi obviously heard that Xiao Ke's words were very meaningful, and immediately threw a cold sentence at Xiao Duo, "Why is the Second Emperor Brother so angry and anxious? What are you saying? Let Xiao Jiu finish, Second Emperor Brother again It's not too late to get angry, you don't even know what Xiaojiu is going to say, so you are so impatient, it makes people think that the second emperor brother has a guilty conscience."

Xiao Duo's face twitched with anger, "You are the one who has a guilty conscience. What should I have to be guilty of? I have never met Mrs. He in the Royal Garden, let alone talked about it. His words are clearly someone's deliberate instigation. He just wants to kill me, why am I not angry, why do I have to wait for him to finish!"

As he said that, Xiao Duo turned his head and said, "Father, Xiao Ke has no respect for his elders. He speaks rudely and slanders my son. I sincerely ask my father to punish Xiao Ke and ask for the truth."

As soon as the word "stick" came out, the cold light in Gu Yuqing's eyes surged out.

For some reason, at this moment, she looked at Xiao Ke as if she were her biological brother. She couldn't see anyone bullying him or seeing him being wronged. She couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid the Second Prince is confused. Your Highness means Your Majesty." , the same goes for His Highness the Ninth Prince. Now that His Highness the Ninth Prince just told what he saw and heard that day, His Majesty the Second Prince will ask His Majesty to punish His Highness the Ninth Prince. For those who don’t know, they would think His Majesty is so biased that he is so unreasonable. Treat your son fairly."

He knew that the last sentence was fierce, but Gu Yuqing just couldn't hold it back.

After glancing at the emperor's slightly moved expression, Gu Yuqing added: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince is suspected of instigating Lu Jiuzheng to kidnap me, and almost His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince and I were drowned by a flash flood in Cuiping Mountain. Such a thing, there are witnesses and physical evidence, Your Majesty has There is no rod to punish His Highness so that His Highness can tell the truth under punishment. Even if Your Highness says such words, aren't you afraid of hurting His Majesty's heart?"

Seeing the displeasure on His Majesty's brow dissipate, Gu Yuqing felt slightly relieved, finally making up for the mistake she had just made out of control.

Gu Yuqing spoke excitedly, but didn't realize how tightly Xiao Ke's drooping hand was clenched when she defended Xiao Ke, and how thick was the sea-like mist under his eyes.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and swallowed the two words that had slipped to his throat, with the same indifferent expression on his face.

Gu Yuqing didn't see it, but Xiao Yu, who had been observing Xiao Ke carefully, saw all of this.

After Gu Yuqing finished speaking, Xiao Duo had no time to counterattack. Xiao Ke seemed to be trying to find a chance, and said: "I also heard that Mrs. He and the second emperor brother mentioned Dafang Temple, saying that as long as Gu Zhen is taken care of, Dafang Temple will be destroyed." You can do whatever you want, Mrs. He's voice is small and her accent is extremely thick, so I can't hear her clearly, it's vague, but these few sentences are clear."

"After listening to Mrs. He's words, the Second Emperor's brother assured her that he would definitely win over Gu Zhen, so Mrs. He could rest assured."

"You're talking nonsense!" This time, Xiao Duo could no longer restrain the rage in his heart. He stood up straight from his kneeling body, reached directly in front of Xiao Ke, pointed at his nose and roared, raising his hand to shout at Xiao Ke. Ke greeted with a face.

Gu Yuqing suddenly became anxious. He didn't know where the reckless courage came from. He stood up suddenly and walked to Xiao Ke in just one step. He raised his hand and pulled Xiao Ke's sleeve and pulled him behind him, as if Like an eagle protecting a chicken, it will protect it to the death.

But although Xiao Ke is only ten years old, he is almost on par with her in stature.

Suddenly being pulled by Gu Yuqing, Xiao Ke suddenly felt like lightning struck him. His body trembled and he froze. He let Gu Yuqing stand in front of him, his misty eyes staring straight at Gu Yuqing's back. The drooping eyelashes covered the rolling emotions in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, but those two words that he had called out thousands of times in his heart were always suppressed by him with all his strength.

Gu Yuqing stood between Xiao Duo and Xiao Ke, looking up at Xiao Duo aggressively, "Your Highness, in the royal study, in front of His Majesty, are you going to silence me? What do you think of His Majesty's majesty?"

Gu Yuqing said with awe-inspiring momentum.

Xiao Duo's eyes widened angrily, "Miss Gu is too alarmist. I just want to teach this nonsense boy a lesson. But Miss Gu, I am puzzled. Miss Gu and Xiaojiu have never been together." Come and go, why are you so anxious to protect him? Is there any hidden secret?"

Hearing Xiao Duo speaking to Gu Yuqing in such a joking tone, Xiao Ke narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light like a needle shot out.
