2408 When I was young

The emperor’s face was bitter. He really didn’t want to be the one chosen by the heavens!

Previously, when he found out that grandfather Gu was his grandmother’s biological son and his biological Imperial uncle, he wanted to give up his position.

But others didn’t want to, and he was taught a lesson by the Grand Empress Dowager before he dispelled this thought.

When the Empress Dowager mentioned this, he recalled his childhood.

The carefree young Junwang was having a lot of fun in his fief. In the end, one day, his family was brought to the capital by the people of the palace.

After that, he was thrown to be raised by the Grand Empress Dowager.

Although the Grand Empress Dowager had his father marry many concubines, and he had a few younger brothers the next year, he was the only one who stayed by the Grand Emperor and the Grand Empress Dowager’s side.

His younger brothers slowly grew up. Other than Majesty Kang, who was ignorant and incompetent and only knew how to use tricks, the others were all very good. However, the Empress Dowager had set her mind on him.

He had also been frustrated and rebellious before, but the Grand Empress Dowager had forcefully pulled him back. He did not know why he had listened to the Grand Empress Dowager’s words.

It wasn’t fear, but respect and admiration. He couldn’t help but want to be obedient.

In the dog days, he was frustrated, but when he saw the Empress Dowager who was studying with him, he didn’t dare to be frustrated.

When he was reading through the night, he had dozed off. However, when he saw the Empress Dowager sitting beside him, he was instantly wide awake.

When he woke up in the morning to practice his swordsmanship, the Grand Empress Dowager would always accompany him.

The Grand Empress Dowager did not scold him, and rarely smiled at him, but he could feel that the Grand Empress Dowager truly cared for him, loved him, and wanted to treat him well.

This kind of good was partly due to her own selfishness, and also because she wanted to teach the great Zhou to have a qualified ruler. But there was also the love of a grandmother for her grandson.

He was not related to the Empress Dowager by blood. He asked himself honestly, he really could not do this to a child who had no blood relationship with him.

From when he was a few years old to when he ascended the throne in his teens, the Grand Empress Dowager had accompanied him for the long ten years.

She never hit or scolded him, but she was a little strict.

He knew that this was all for his own good.

When he had first ascended the throne, the old officials had made things difficult for him, and it was the Grand Empress Dowager who had stood up to protect him.

He still remembered the words the Grand Empress Dowager had said to his officials and to him.

The Grand Empress Dowager punished that official and told the other officials: “One, the Emperor is the Son of Heaven, the legitimate eldest son and grandson of the previous emperor. Second, the Emperor is this widow’s grandson. If any of you make life difficult for him, then you are also making life difficult for this widow. Could it be that this widow has lived in the palace for so long that everyone thinks this widow can’t lift a blade?”

After that, the Empress Dowager said to him,”Emperor, remember this. You are the ruler of the country. You can make all the decisions.” They were officials, officials who would do their best for the great Zhou. They would only assist you, but they could not control you. A qualified King had to have his own opinions. Also, you’re this widow’s grandson, this widow’s eldest grandson. If you’re afraid, then you’re losing this widow’s face. Don’t be afraid, this widow is here, no one will dare to look down on you. This widow will always protect you!”

If it wasn’t for the fact that there were so many people, the Emperor would have cried.

In his entire life, only the Empress Dowager would tell him,”don’t be afraid, I will always protect you.”

From then on, he became much more daring and was used to asking the Empress Dowager about many things.

In the beginning, the Empress Dowager would still say a few words, but after he was twenty years old, the Empress Dowager really let him do it himself.
