Concubine Shu never thought that Emperor Longzong would come to ask her something like this, "What does the emperor want to hear me say? Why do you need to explain what I have never done before?"

Perhaps because of his origin as a general, Concubine Shu was very proud at heart.

This kind of thing she had never done before and even thought about was something she had never thought about. Not to mention explaining, Shufei didn't even want to listen.

Emperor Longzong frowned, "Are you afraid? Are you afraid that I will deal with you and Lao Qi in anger after seeing the doll?"

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, then curled her lips and chuckled, "Will the emperor? If the emperor would do that, he wouldn't have come to ask me about these words."

Before Emperor Longzong could speak, Concubine Shu continued, "The emperor may not know that our Gu family also has family precepts."

She has been in the palace for so many years and rarely mentions the Gu family before Emperor Longzong.

Since Gu Zhao handed over the military power, the Gu family has only been left with disabled veterans who have no relatives to take care of.

Fortunately, Gu Zhao left behind the money and some silver coins that Shufei sent him every year, so the lives of those veterans were able to live up to their life.

She did not mention the Gu family because she knew that Emperor Longzong always had indescribable suspicion and distrust towards the Gu family.

"Oh?" Emperor Longzong looked at Concubine Shu, "Why have I never heard of the Gu family's family's family motto?"

When Gu Zhao had not handed over military power in the past, he spent most of his time leading troops to fight at the border, and he could be said to have very little time in the capital.

Even when Emperor Longzong ascended the throne, Gu Zhao did not return to Beijing.

Perhaps because of this, Emperor Longzong's attitude towards Gu Zhao was always light, including later when Concubine Shu entered the palace, he was also lukewarm.

"Even if you are the most noble lord of the world, you may not know everything." Concubine Shu looked at Emperor Longzong and smiled faintly, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. "The Gu family motto has existed since the Gu family established the mansion, and it is probably the end of my life when I arrived here."

The Gu family has no male members to inherit the family business, and it is almost overwhelming, but Gu Zhao doesn't care about it at all.

After traveling for so many years, I have never written a letter to Concubine Shu, let alone mention it back to Beijing, which is even more impossible.

"Is that true?" Emperor Longzong's expression was not at all turbulent, and Concubine Shu couldn't tell whether he was angry or not. "Since it was something I didn't know, it would be better for Concubine Shu to tell me."

Concubine Shu looked out the window. If Emperor Longzong could see her expression at the moment, she would find that there was sadness and desolation in her eyes.

After a long time, Concubine Shu sighed: "The Gu family motto, no matter when, the descendants of the Gu family must not betray the emperor, nor must they have the intention of treason to frame the emperor! The Gu family is not loyal to anyone, but only loyal to the emperor sitting on the dragon throne."

Concubine Shu turned her head and looked at Emperor Longzong, "I have never done anything to curse the emperor, and I will never do such a thing."

Gu Jiazhong was the Great Zhou royal family, and no matter who became the emperor, they had nothing to do with them.

As long as the royal family needs the Gu family, the Gu family can fight on the battlefield with their heads and blood.

Once the royal family no longer needs them, the Gu family can also hand over everything they have and leave completely.

Just like Gu Zhao.
