When he returned to Chang'an, he received bad news, saying that his wife Lin Qiaoer had passed away, and Tang Yuan was crying at the desk.

Tang Xiao gave him a pass and went back to Luoyang for the funeral.

When I returned to Luoyang, I learned that my wife had been buried for more than a month, and I brought a lot of paper money to mourn my wife, cried a lot, and then fell ill.

Tang Yuan rarely gets sick, this is the case when he is a child, especially when his family members die of jaundice, and after he became an orphan, he has the impression that he has never been sick.

But this time, I suddenly felt weak and had a fever all over.

Tang Hu came to see Tang Yuan, and said with hot soup: "You just came back from the battle in Mobei, and it was already very hard, and you ran back non-stop overnight, and cried in front of the grave. Come, drink a bowl of egg soup and make up for it. ”

Tang Yuan was a twelve-year-old orphan, and the one who took care of him the most was this distant aunt who lived next to him.

Thanking her, this is also one of the reasons why Tang Yuan took care of Tang Hu three or four times. Otherwise, with Tang Hu's actions, it would have been enough to cut off his head.

Hearing that Tang Yuan had returned, the two ladies passed away one after another, and I heard that Tang Yuan was ill, so Queen Tang Qi asked Hu Lanhua to take a look at Tang Yuan instead of herself. At the same time, he brought a secret letter and told Tang Yuan that the Empress will operate recently to pull you and your troops back to Luoyang. and asked Hu Lanhua to bring Tang Yuan's son Tang Xiaoyu into the palace, and Queen Tang Qi wanted to raise him for a period of time.

Why the queen suddenly wanted to do this, Tang Yuan couldn't understand, and he still felt that it was unlikely.

In fact, Tang Qi's letter didn't write these words at all, just some words of condolence, and the key thing was dictated by Hu Lanhua.

"You're not kidding me, are you?" Tang Yuan understands Hu Orchid, this girl sometimes likes to tease Tang Yuan, she doesn't play tricks on everyone, but only Tang Yuan.

"How old are we to do that kid's tricks?" Hu Lanhua sighed and said: "You are okay, you are a man, no one says anything when you marry a daughter-in-law at the age of forty or fifty, but I am different, I am only one year younger than you, I am already twenty-one, and I am not married yet, and there are already people chewing on the root of the tongue." ”

"You stay in the palace all day long, chewing the root of your tongue is chewing the root of the emperor's tongue, I think those long-tongued women are not watching your jokes, but jealous of you." Tang Yuan said with a low mood.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and hand over the child to me, I want to go back immediately. Now that the queen is by her side, she can't live without me for a while. I'm the only guard with a knife by her side. "Hu Orchid is colorful.

"......" Tang Yuan was stunned: "You're not joking?" ”

"Of course not!"

"Why did the Empress do this?"

"I don't know, anyway, if you want to send it, you'll send it, don't give it to your mother-in-law."

It seems that Empress Tang Qi's current situation is not good, Tang Yuan inexplicably has a feeling of sympathy in his heart, some people have sighed since ancient times, it is sad to be born in the emperor's family, and the women who join the emperor's family are actually not all good. The only thing they don't worry about is food and clothing, but they don't worry about anything else.

The emperor is not pampered and worried; The concubines in the palace fought and were worried; The Queen Mother's face was ugly and sad; The mother's family came to ask for errands, worried; If the mother's family causes trouble outside, it is even more worried; If the mother's family commits a heinous disaster and commits a catastrophe on herself, I am afraid it will be difficult to sleep peacefully on the side of the emperor's couch.

Hu Lanhua didn't say much to Tang Yuan about the queen, and then left with Tang Xiaoyu.

The child is still very young, babbling, and he doesn't even know his father, why did he bring it into the palace?

And this is a boy, after you bring it in, don't castrate, become a eunuch, and the old Tang family will be broken.

Who knows how many sons I Tang Yuan has in his life, if there is only this one, it will be a bloody life, and if he dies in the future, how can he be worthy of his ancestors and ancestors.

In fact, if I don't have a son, it's fine, because God doesn't bless me.

But he had a son, but he was sent to the palace, which is the reason why he didn't have the face to see his ancestors.

In fact, Tang Yuan was too worried, there were rules in the palace that men were not allowed to come in, but Huangkou Xiaoer was not included in the regulations.

Each dynasty has its own special style and regulations, such as the Tang Dynasty, the princesses are quite Hu style, debauchery, and the virtue of a princess's husband after his death is unbelievable, but even so, the royal family does not punish her. But in the Liang Dynasty, this style of Hu people suddenly decreased.

In the Liang Dynasty, it was not uncommon to bring the children of heroes into the palace to raise, and there were more than a dozen in history, and the purpose of this was to show holy grace, especially for those generals who did not have a gate valve background.

But Tang Yuan is nominally a member of the Tang Clan, is it appropriate to do so?

Coincidentally, Tang Qi is also a member of the Tang family, the Great Liang Dynasty was founded for two hundred years, and there are many imperial concubines with the surname Tang, but there is only one with the surname Tang Queen.

And Tang Qi is not surnamed Tang, her original name is Qi Qi, she is the daughter of Qi Dongyang, the general of Shence, she has lived in the army since she was a child, and has a close relationship with Tang Xiao, the seventh son of the Tang family. Now Tang Xiao has become the lord of the capital, the Duke of Chang'an, who controls the entire western part of the Liang Dynasty, has great power, listens to the call and does not listen to the announcement, and is almost equal to the imperial power.

Tang Yuan was sick for seven days before he got better, and in these seven days, the maid Xiaohuan accompanied him and took care of him meticulously.

Tang Yuan had already felt Xiaohuan's love, but he always felt that something was inappropriate, as soon as he saw Xiaohuan, he remembered that Mrs. Qiao'er had died strangely, which made him feel uncomfortable, and said: "Xiaohuan, you are not too young, in a few days, I will ask Mrs. Qian to be a matchmaker and find you a good mother-in-law." ”

"What? The general wants to drive me away? ”

"What is this called, men should get married, women should get married, this is the way to go." Tang Yuan was resolute: "Don't cry in front of me, I'll make the decision for you." ”

Xiaohuan suddenly cried: "When Madame is here, I am her confidant, Madame has just left, you don't miss the old love, do you want to drive Madame's old person away?" ”

"You are a maid of the Lin family, and you are not a sister who grew up with Qiao'er, I chose a path for you, I was kind, why are you like this?" Tang Yuan said: "It's not that I'm ruthless, but I don't think it's a bad thing for me to have no wife." I fought in the army all day, and I didn't know when I lost my life. The pain of parting, the pain of lovesickness, makes people feel painful. She died and I hurt, I died and she hurt, I led the soldiers out to fight, and she worried about me all the time. My wives are all wives with hard lives, and I might as well not get married, but I can save my life from suffering. ”

After saying these words, Xiaohuan said a lot more, the more he said, the more explicit it it became, but Tang Yuan didn't listen, he went home for the funeral this time, only half a month's vacation, delayed on the road for a few days, and went home and was sick for seven days, and there were no days left.

He was in a hurry to marry Xiaohuan, but Xiaohuan hanged himself.

But she didn't die.

This Nizi has a lot of eyes, so she is reluctant to die.
