Outside Anlu City, gongs and drums are noisy and crowded.

The angel from Chang'an arrived in Anlu, and Yu Wenliang, the governor of Anzhou, led a group of civil and military officials and the Anlu gentry out of the city to set up a big battle to greet them.

Before the angel set off, the imperial court had sent an envoy who traveled 400 miles a day to Anlu to spread the news, so the preparations for Anzhou were very sufficient.

This time, the angel went southeast from Chang'an through the Wuguan Ancient Road, passed through the Jingzhou Governor's Mansion, then came to Caizhou, and then went east through Tangzhou, which was controlled by the Anzhou Army, to Suizhou.

Suizhou Assassin Shi immediately sent a messenger south overnight to inform An Lu to prepare to welcome the imperial envoy, and the officials of the Anzhou Governor's Office immediately took action to clean the official office and tidy up the city, and the full set of equipment for receiving the order was also wiped clean.

Outside the Shili Pavilion greeted the envoy, a group of people surrounded the angels and sounded the gong to open the way to the city governor's office, the road on both sides of the lanterns were colorful, for fear that the people of the city did not know that the court and Anzhou had reconciled.

The Xiyang County Mansion is also very lively, the servants are busy cleaning, the kitchen is busy killing chickens and geese, a small courtyard is tidyed up, and the Duchess of Xiyang County, Wei Chi Chifan, is directing the servants to arrange the home bedding.

This time, the angel went south to Anlu, accompanied by the envoys from Anzhou who sent an envoy to Chang'an last month and the family of Chi Shun, the public governor of Angu County, and the male owner of the mansion, Gongyu Wenwen of Xiyang County, stayed in Chang'an for another appointment.

In order to dispel the shadow cast by the male host's stay in Chang'an and his inability to return, the hostess Wei Chi Chifan decided to make the matter of welcoming the arrival of her parents' family more solemn and pleasing to the public.

The servants all changed into brand-new housekeepers Li Sanjiu to check their appearance one by one, Liu Caiyun supervised the formation in the kitchen, and Zhang Dingfa, the head of the nursing home, specially instructed his subordinates to pay attention: "If there is a family of three knocking on the door for a while, you must be polite!" ”

Because of the lesson of the last time the male owner Yu Wenwen returned to the house with two subordinates but was beaten by the new nursing home, this time the two leaders told the gang to pay attention.

Although the housekeeper Li Sanjiu had already sent a carriage to the governor's mansion to wait to pick up Lord Lang's father-in-law's family, he also had to prevent any accidents, in case the second elder took his wife and sister straight over to find a place to enter, but was beaten by a random stick, then the two of them had a dead heart.

The servants who had been sent outside the city had already sent news that the family of the Duke of Angu County had come to the city with the imperial envoys, and they could not leave until the angel had announced the decree from the official office, and the housekeeper Li Sanjiu asked him to check again whether there were any gaps in the reception work.

"Coming, coming" Zhang Yiman and Hu Sanzi, who were looking forward to it outside the door, ran into the compound and shouted loudly, and Wei Chi Chi, who was already standing in the courtyard, heard the words and led the servants to the gate to prepare to welcome their parents.

The two carriages stopped in front of the mansion surrounded by several horseback guards, the first carriage was Wei Chishun and his wife and their daughter Yu Chi Mingyue, and the second was two old servants and luggage.

"Mother!" Wei Chi Chi ran forward and hugged his mother Wang and his sister and cried with joy, the family finally reunited The scene was touching, and the housekeeper Li Sanjiu saw that the fire was almost over, so he stepped forward to persuade him to enter the house first.

At the beginning of the reception banquet, Wei Chi Chifan gathered with his parents and sister, and the servants in the house also feasted on the flowing water banquet set up in the side courtyard, and the dinner lasted for nearly half an hour before it ended.

The family told about the pain of parting, and Wei Chi Chifan talked about the bits and pieces of life in Anlu after leaving Chang'an, and Wei Chishun and his wife nodded while listening, these things were already roughly told to them when his son-in-law Yu Wenwen was in Chang'an.

Immediately, Wei Chishun also talked about being under house arrest since May, if there is no son-in-law to come to Chang'an, they are afraid that they will not have a few days to live, and when it comes to grief, Wang and his two daughters hugged their heads and cried.

Taking advantage of the absence of outsiders, Wei Chishun asked his daughter if there was a situation of a servant bullying the master in the house, because he found that the housekeeper Li Sanjiu was only twelve or thirteen years old, and the head of the courtyard was in his thirties for fear that his daughter would not be able to suppress the servants in the house and be bullied.

Wei Chi Chi Fan let his parents relax, the backbone of these mansions were all brought by Fu Junyu Wenwen from Chang'an, and they were very reliable, and it was thanks to the leader that they easily solved the horse bandits who intended to attack the convoy on the way.

As for the housekeeper Li Sanjiu, he is quite capable, don't look at his young age, he has already managed all kinds of things in the house in an orderly manner, and besides, next door is Brother Yuwenwen's family, if there is anything, it is easy to take care of it.

"In this case, it is relieved to be a father." Wei Chishun and his wife looked at each other and were relieved, and then took out a letter from his arms: "This is a letter that your husband entrusted for her husband." ”

When Wei Chi Chi heard this, he took the letter and accepted it like a treasure, and the housekeeper Li Sanjiu estimated that it was almost time to appear outside the dining room, and invited Yu Chishun and his wife and their little daughter to live in the arranged courtyard.

"Sister, I'm going to sleep with you tonight!" Yu Chi Mingyue began to shake her sister's arm, "Brother-in-law said that I would help take care of you before he came back!" ”

Seeing that the eldest daughter's eyes were red, Wang hurriedly pulled the younger daughter over: "Why are you so careless?"

"Mother, let Mingyue sleep with me tonight." Yu Chi Chifan smiled slightly, "Didn't Siniang sleep with her sister when she was a child?" Go take a shower first. ”

"Okay~~~" Two small dimples appeared on Yu Chi Mingyue's face, and she ran out laughing.

Wei Chi Chifan returned to the bedroom and couldn't wait to take out her husband's letter, first pressed the letter tightly to her chest and showed a happy smile, and then came to the oil lamp and carefully opened the envelope.

With trembling hands, he took out his letterhead and opened it with bated breath to take a look, Wei Chi Chifan was stunned for a moment, and then tears fell like beads of broken threads, and sobbed in a low voice, and there were only two words on the letterhead under the light:

Miss you.

The two words condense the feelings of longing day and night, and these two simple words condense the husband Yu Wenwen's thoughts and evenings for his wife Wei Chi, who is thousands of miles away.

How many nights of solitary sleeplessness, how many nights of sleeplessness, how many times of tossing and turning, how many times of seeing things and thinking about people are contained in these two words.

"Erlang, I miss you too." Wei Chi muttered softly with tears in her eyes, and pressed the letterhead to her cheek to feel her husband's body temperature, breath and smell, and the warm feeling on the letterhead made her feel like she was thrown into the arms of her sweetheart.

The warm fragment of the time when the two were together resurfaced in her mind, and at this moment she felt snuggled in her husband's warm arms, he gently combed his long hair with his hands, kissed his cheek with his lips, and whispered in his ear:

Miss you.

There was a knock on the door, Yu Chi Chi came back to his senses, wiped away his tears, put away the letterhead, and after a while, the door opened, and his sister Yu Chi Mingyue bumped in: "Sister! ”

The two sisters were lying on the couch covered with a big quilt and whispering, Wei Chi Chi often slept with his sister Yu Chi Mingyue before he got married, and the sisters had nothing to say.

Yu Chi Mingyue was chattering about Chang'an in her sister's arms, talking about being locked up in the mansion with her parents and not being able to go out, and talking about her parents sighing with a sad face all day long.

"That hateful Yuwen still asked the servant to bully his father, and whipped his mother with a whip!" Little Lori's eyes turned red when she said this, "Fortunately, my brother-in-law arrived in time to teach them a lesson, otherwise Mingyue would have been captured by that villain!" ”

"My brother-in-law was so angry when he heard that villain scolding his sister that he almost beat that villain to death"

"Brother-in-law put another Yuwen or something and was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy"

"My brother-in-law hung the first villain on a tree and beat him, and asked him to kowtow to his father to pay compensation."

"My brother-in-law has been the best for me! Take me shopping every day, and he will buy whatever I want."

"My brother-in-law said that I asked me to take care of my sister when he didn't come back"

"My brother-in-law did something bad, he ran off to drink!"

"Sister, why are you crying?" ……

Chang'an, the residence of King Zhao.

The honor guard of the brigade stopped in the courtyard of the mansion, and in the bedroom separated by several porches, Zhao Wangyu Wenzhao was entertaining distinguished guests-Prime Minister, Yang Jian, Duke of Sui.

His sons Deguang County Gongyu Clerk, Yongkang County Gongyu Wenguan, and several henchmen stood on the left and right, all standing with swords, Yang Jian's entourage Yang Hong, Yuan Guan, Yuan Wei, and Tao Che were all sitting at the door of the dormitory, and the rest of the entourage were all in the compound with the prime minister's honor guard.

"The prime minister is in charge of state affairs, and the king does it first as a respect." Yuwen Zhao drank a glass of wine, and Yang Jian then drank the wine in the cup.

Yuwen Zhao is the son of Yuwentai, the founder of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Yuwen Yong, Emperor Wu of Zhou, is a half-brother, although his talent is not as good as that of another brother, Qi Wang Yu Wenxian, but he is also a more capable vassal king among the kings of the clan.

He in the first year of the elephant on the Zhao State, to Xiangguo County of Zhaozhou as the feudal state of the food of ten thousand households, the second year of the elephant (this year) in February Turkic sent a messenger to Chang'an to ask for marriage, Tianyuan Emperor Yuwenyun for his daughter Qianjin Princess to choose a good day and auspicious day to marry the Turkic Sha Bo Luo Khan.

In April, Emperor Tianyuan was assassinated, and the little emperor issued an edict to summon him and four other vassal kings to Beijing, one for the burial of the first emperor, and the other to prepare for the princess and his relatives.

When receiving the summons, Yuwen Zhao hesitated but had to go back to Chang'an, but this time there was no way to leave, the first emperor was buried, and his daughter Princess Qianjin also left Beijing in June in tears, and he was left in the capital by the little emperor in the name of auxiliary government.

The little emperor's obedience to his grandfather was also Yang Jian's layout, and Yuwen Zhao and other vassal kings originally felt that his move to stay in the capital was just to monopolize power.

Let's take it, I think that my hateful cousin Yuwen Hu killed two brothers in a row, and he was powerful for a while, but in the end, he was not solved by his third brother Yuwen Yong? Then watch from the sidelines for how long this Yang Jian can run amok.

Chi Yuan, the governor of Xiangzhou and the public lieutenant of Shu State, raised troops against Yang and his youngest son was proclaimed emperor by him, and now Wei Chi is so powerful that Yang Jian will not be able to shake it for a while.

The daughter married to the Turks to be Kedun, and the Turks used the excuse to invade the Central Plains even if they had no excuses, they had to find excuses, and they didn't believe that Yang Jian dared to do anything to him.

But now Yang Jian is really going to do something to the clan vassal kings!

Although the emperor issued an edict to let himself have special treatment: when he went to court, he did not need to run in small steps, and he could wear a sword and go directly to the palace without taking off his shoes. But how can this kind of false courtesy be worthy of real power, Yang Jian has been appointed as the prime minister and governor of the Chinese and foreign military forces today above 10,000 people, and all important positions in the capital are his henchmen.

He has military power in his hands, and the clan vassal king has completely become an ornament, and he doesn't even have the power to protect himself, and the powerful minister Yuwen Hu still cares about the clan and doesn't dare to mess too much, and he still doesn't dare to usurp the throne after killing two emperors, but now this Sui Duke Yang Jian has no one to suppress it.

Now the only sect leader Yu Wenliang who is leading the army outside Yu Wenliang doesn't know what medicine to take wrong and actually talks to Yang Jian about peace, as long as Yang Jian guards Wuguan and Luoyang and Yubi, then he can do whatever he wants in Chang'an, those so-called Great Zhou loyal ministers who have received the favor of their father Yu Wentai and the third brother Yu Wenyong are now stammering Yang Jian one by one, I am afraid that he is waiting to persuade him.

Therefore, this king can't sit still, and he will kill this traitor Yang Jian today!

The servant put a plate of seasonal melons and fruits on the table, Yuwen Zhao smiled and took out his saber and said to Yang Jian, who was close at hand: "Prime Minister, please taste this fresh melon and fruit." ”
