"What's the benefit?" Li Ke sat up straight and said, "A few nights before I went to the Turks, Xiao was restless. Including the people they planted in the Shu Palace, they also did the thing of drugging my food. It's just that I took precautions and didn't eat the meal, so I gave it to her with my backhand, and she rested in my room. ”

Li Ke didn't make it particularly clear, the one in front of him was his mother, and he couldn't say it. That night, Xiao took medicine and was full of charm. In his previous life, she was still with him, leaving her to sleep alone in that room. He went to the study to plan an envoy to the Turks.

That night, he originally thought that Concubine Xiao was just a simple competition for favor, and wanted to gain a foothold in the Shu Palace. He just avoided her, didn't think about it deeply. Unexpectedly, on the second day, he received information that the Xiao family was going to deal with the King of Shu and the Yang family's Azhi. On the way to the Turks, the dead soldiers of the Xiao clan came in batches.

He suddenly understood that no matter whether he slept with Concubine Xiao that night or not, Concubine Xiao spent the night in his room. Then, in the eyes of outsiders, it is the reality of husband and wife. If he dies and Xiao has it in his belly, whether it is his or not, he must be the widow of the King of Shu. That child has a royal status and can become the most advantageous bargaining chip for the Xiao clan.

It was also because of this, coupled with the fact that he saw his grandmother and knew that the Xiao family's desire to restore the country had never been broken, that he made up his mind to move the Xiao family.

Yang Shufei suddenly understood everything when she heard this, and she couldn't help but put the teacup on the table heavily, and said angrily: "If this Xiao family wants to die, she will be fulfilled." ”

"Mother, there's no hurry. Li Ke smiled softly, "I have my own measure." ”

Yang Shufei was also embarrassed, this reversal was the child who told her not to worry. She smiled, looked at him lovingly, and said, "You've grown up." ”

He smiled slightly and said, "Mother, the child will protect you and your brother, and will also protect our family." ”

Yang Shufei's eyes were wet with tears, and she felt that the sun was exceptionally bright. Li Ke instructed Qingyun to make a pot of tea and take some pastries. He eats little in the morning, and now he is hungry when he drinks tea.

"This pastry was learned by Aunt Yue from someone in the sixth room of the Yang family. Said that you love to eat, so I learned to come back, and I eat it well. Yang Shufei said with a smile.

Li Ke ate a few pieces of jujube paste cake, thought about it, and then said: "Mother, this time I went to the Turks, and I met my grandmother. ”

Concubine Yang Shufei's hand froze, and she paused for a while before she looked at Li Ke and asked in a low voice, "She, is she okay?"

"My grandmother, like the portrait you painted, has not aged at all, and is in good spirits. Li Ke said slowly, "The body is also tough and upright." ”

Li Ke said that later, he smiled.

"Then, can you mention it to the Turks and bring her back?" Yang Shufei hurriedly asked, and after asking, she felt ridiculous again. Her own child was forced to go to the Turks to be helpless, and it was a conspiracy of people with a heart, and it was a blessing to be able to return safely, how could she look at a mountain high?

For so many years, it is difficult to protect himself, and his body is like duckweed. Even though she misses her mother very much, she can't do anything about it. A few days ago, her child was going to go to the Turks, and the road ahead was full of dangers, she only asked for the safety of her child, where did she dare to reveal one more word in her heart, and let her child go into danger. Therefore, although she missed her mother very much and wanted to know if she was okay in the Turks, she still did not dare to say a word to the children who were about to send a mission to the Turks.

But now, the child took the initiative to talk to her about his mother.

"You, how did you meet your grandmother?" Although Concubine Yang Shu had never been an envoy to the Turks, she was once a princess, and she still understood a little about this kind of sinister coming-and-going. And what she understands better is that her mother is not a guest in the Turks, and she is afraid that she is also a prisoner or a plaything. Therefore, she was very surprised that her child was able to meet his mother on a mission to the Turks.

"My mother misses my grandmother, and I want to see her this time. I talked to Princess Yicheng, this is human nature, and I saw it. Li Ke replied truthfully, but he didn't tell his mother about the other part.

"Then, have you ever told Princess Yicheng about your mother returning to Chang'an to enjoy her old age?"

"My grandmother didn't want to come back. Li Ke put down the teacup in his hand and said to his mother very seriously.

Yang Shufei's expression was gloomy, she sighed, and said: "I have not been close to her in this life, and I have never been able to see what kind of person she is, nor do I understand her heart. ”

When she said this, she was a little angry.

In the past, although her mother treated her well, the mother and daughter were not close. Because of her birth and parents, she fostered Hongnong Yang, and occasionally saw each other, and everything her mother did was a big deal. In contrast to her father's patience with her, her mother was rarely close to her with a pleasant face. It's just that smoke is everywhere, and she is worried about the future of her children, but she has not forgotten her. As soon as Li Shimin came to ask for it, she agreed, and told her: If you get married, you are a member of the Li family, even if there is anything to do with the Yang family in the future, it is none of your business, and you must not force yourself to come out.

Later, she married and gave birth to Li Ke. The world has been stormy, as a grandmother, she sent a common courtesy, a letter of only a few words: you are also a mother, and the heart of a mother is the same all over the world. Marrying is like a new life, the past has nothing to do with you, you can protect your children, and you can be dedicated to your husband.

Her mother did not express any affection for her, and she went into exile several times. She also asked Li Shimin once if she could save her mother from Dou Jiande, Yu Wenhua and his hands. Li Shimin led the troops outside, and he was too busy to take care of himself. After the foundation was firmly established, his mother was taken captive by Princess Yicheng to the Turks.

The Turks are in trouble, the battle between the Qin Palace's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion is endless, and the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods outside are fighting their ideas again. She can only protect herself, for so many years, she can only miss her mother, but she can't do anything.

"Mother doesn't have to worry. She and her cousin live in Dingxiang, and they both live well. And not prisoner life. Li Ke comforted his mother.

Yang Shufei nodded, thinking that it was not interesting to say more. It's not that the mother doesn't want to come back, but the Turks don't want to let her go. Li Ke saw that his mother lowered her head, she must have thought of her grandmother, and she was very worried.

"Mother, after two years, the child will personally sweep away the Turks and welcome his grandmother and cousin back. Li Ke said very seriously.

Yang Shufei suddenly stretched out her hand to cover his mouth, and said with a straight face: "You don't want to talk nonsense, let's not do such a thing as making meritorious contributions." ”

"Children are measured. In short, the mother is relieved that in two years, the child will personally welcome back the grandmother. Li Ke held his mother's hand and assured him very seriously.

"Don't talk about it. Yang Shufei changed the topic and said, "Since the last time, you and Ah Zhi taught Ah Su a lesson, Ah Shu's temperament has changed greatly, and he is immersed in hard reading every day, and now he has read all the books in Penglai Palace." ”

"Ah Yu is working so hard?" Li Ke was also surprised, and secretly thought: This kind of thing did not exist in the previous life.

"said that he wanted to contribute to the prosperity of Datang, and he also exercised his body and practiced martial arts every day. said that in the future, if you want to travel all over the three mountains and five mountains, you can't do it without a strong physique. Yang Shufei also smiled when she thought of Li Su.

"This kid is civilized. Li Ke sighed.

Aunt Yue interjected on the side: "Ah Zhi worked so hard, and he listened to what you and Miss Ah Zhi said that day. You have to tell Miss Ah Zhi that the promise of Ah Zhi can't be coaxed to children. ”

"Ah Zhi is full of promises, she will not promise at will, she treats Ah Zhi as a family member, so she will be like that. Li Keda was happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Aunt Yue, you say this, Ah Zhi is not a few years older than Ah Zhi. Yang Shufei also felt funny.

"Oh, yes. Aunt Yue patted her forehead and said with a smile, "The main reason is that Ah Zhi is decent, and Bing Xue is smart, so I forgot that she was a child." ”

"She's not young, she's twelve years old. Li Ke immediately argued.

He also wanted to marry Ah Zhi back as soon as possible, how could he make his parents think that the two of them were still children.

"Ke'er is in a hurry?" Yang Shufei quipped.

Li Ke was panicked, his joy and anger were invisible, he blushed, coughed twice in embarrassment, and just buried his head in drinking tea.

Aunt Yue looked clear, and sighed while washing the cup: juvenile feelings or something.

Li Ke felt extremely embarrassed, but fortunately, Ah Yu appeared in time and asked with a straight face: "Third brother, what you said is true?"

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he must have heard the conversation just now. He nodded to him and said, "Naturally, it's true, your third sister-in-law never breaks her word." ”

"Pay attention to the words, people haven't married you yet, don't be your third sister-in-law, your third sister-in-law. Before I got married, I was still called Sister Azhi. Li Su pouted.

"Sooner or later. Hey, didn't you call the third sister-in-law last time?" asked Li Ke.

Li Su pursed his lips and said, "I didn't think much about it at the time, but now that I think about it, I think I should still follow the old rules, which shows respect for Sister Azhi." ”

"Ah Yu is sensible. Aunt Yue chattered.

"I've always been sensible. Li Su said very seriously.

Yang Shufei was very relieved to see her little son who gave her a headache like this, so she beckoned Li Su to sit down and drink tea beside her. Li Su sat down, but didn't drink tea, just looked at Li Ke and asked, "Then when will Sister Azhi come to see me?"

"Your sister Azhi only came back yesterday, let's rest for a few days. Li Ke said.

Although Li Su didn't know why Yang Minzhi came back yesterday, he knew that although she was not a few years older than herself, she did all the big things, and even her father admired her very much. Therefore, he didn't ask, only pouted and said, "Then you tell Sister Azhi, she doesn't forget me." ”

"Alright, stop pouting, I won't forget you. Li Ke looked at Li Ke like that, and felt a little weird in his heart. After thinking about it for a while, he was afraid that this kid would covet his daughter-in-law.

The sudden flash of thought made him feel that he had simply changed, and he was becoming less and less confident.

Li Su got the promise, didn't drink tea, said that he was going to study, got up and left. Aunt Yue was very excited to say that Li Su had changed these days, and then praised Miss Azhi for being such a fairy-like woman, with profound blessings.

Yang Shufei sat on the recliner, looking at the blue sky and squinting her eyes slightly. She suddenly looked forward to a change in the future.
