Chapter 62: The Emperor's Private Conversation (I)

Yang Guang's mother Dugu Jialuo was born in a noble family in the early Northern Zhou Dynasty, her father Dugu Xin was once in power, and three of the seven daughters born became queens: the eldest daughter Dugu Jialan married Emperor Ming of the Northern Zhou Dynasty; The fourth daughter, Dugu Jiacai, married Li Yuan's father, and many years later Li Yuan was proclaimed emperor and posthumously presented his mother as the queen; The youngest seventh daughter, Dugu Jialuo, married Yang Jian at the age of fourteen.

Because Dugu Xin was killed by Yuwen Hu in the power struggle of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Dugu Jialuo lost the dependence of his mother's power soon after marrying into the Yang Sect. Therefore, she wholeheartedly assisted her husband Yang Jian, helped Yang Jian rise step by step, and finally became the founding monarch of the Great Sui on behalf of Zhou.

The long-term mutual assistance has made Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo form a high degree of tacit understanding in dealing with large and small affairs, and the two of them have extremely similar opinions on the handling of some major affairs. Therefore, not long after the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the couple were called "two saints" in the palace of the central court.

However, to Dugu Jialuo's great surprise and annoyance, Yang Jian rarely disagreed with himself in dealing with the small Lou Zi stabbed by his second son Yang Guang, and his words and demeanor revealed his strong dissatisfaction with the whistleblower Li Yuan, and ignored Yang Guang's wanton waste.

Dugu Jialuo was dissatisfied with Yang Jian's transfer of Li Yuan to a foreign post, so he brushed his sleeves and left on the spot, and afterwards heard the maid around him report that Yang Jian was the only one who did not give the "Five Plants of the Emperor" to the Jin Palace, as a punishment for Yang Guang's extravagant behavior, and she breathed a sigh of relief. After more than 20 years of husband and wife, she knows Yang Jian too well, if it weren't for a special reason, he would never have taken care of his own feelings, did not blame the master Yang Guang, but was angry with Li Yuan and Yang Yong, the prince who took the initiative to bear the wrong responsibility.

That night, Dugu Jialuo ordered the maid to study the ink for her, prepare the best silk silk, sit in the Zhengyang Palace, and wait for Yang Jian's return while copying Buddhist scriptures. She wanted to take advantage of the dead of night, when the husband and wife were alone, to ask her husband what his thoughts were. As early as February, when Yang Jian was receiving Zen, there was a crooked wind in the palace, and it was rumored that their couple's favorite second son, Yang Guangzai, was interested in making friends with the court's and palace's cronies, and he was quite a trend of seizing the sect. Now Yang Guangyi uncharacteristically spent all the money and silk stored in the treasury, and ran to the East Palace to borrow food in the middle of the night, Yang Jian didn't even ask, is it true that as the rumors say, her husband has the heart to grow up and be young?

Although he was quite dissatisfied with the eldest son Yang Yong's preference for the concubine Yun and the snub of the crown princess Yuan, he complained in front of Yang Jian on weekdays that Yang Yong had different ideas and favored the house, but if it was said that Yang Yong's position as the crown prince was abolished and someone else was set up, Dugu Jia Luo had never had such a mind.

At the end of the second watch, He Zhu'er, who was guarding the gate of Zhengyang Palace, finally trotted to report to her: The emperor has returned to the palace.

When Dugu Jialuo heard the news, he put down the pen in his hand, lowered his head and thought about it, but he still stood up and took the initiative to face the outside of the hall: In the past, the husband and wife stumbled and made a fuss or something, but Yang Jian let her and took the initiative to reconcile with her afterwards.

Yang Jian, accompanied by the right guard general Yuan Gao, had just stepped into the main hall of Zhengyang Palace, and was bluffed by the oncoming Dugu Jialuo. He opened his eyes to look at his beloved wife, but he didn't see the look of anger on her face, so he relaxed a little, pulled Dugu Jia Luo forward, and asked with concern: "When the sky is like this, why is the queen still restless?" ”

A year ago, Zhao Wang Yuwen Zhao of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in order to oppose his relative Yang Jian's ruling dynasty, once placed a "Hongmen Banquet" in his palace, in the name of inviting Yang Jian to the palace to discuss matters, he wanted to kill Yang Jian in one fell swoop, thanks to the guard Yuan Stomach who accompanied Yang Jian to the banquet at that time, he noticed that the situation was wrong in advance, and opened the door for Yang Jian in time, reminding Yang Jian to leave Zhao Wangfu quickly, so as to avoid Yang Jian being victimized by Yuwen Zhao. After Yang Jian ascended to the pole, he not only became the general of the right guard, but also returned to the palace every day, and was accompanied and guarded by the Yuan stomach. Yuan Gao is therefore recognized as Yang Jian's most trusted person, and even Dugu Jia Luo has a lot of respect for Yuan Stomach.

"Yuan stomach, it's not early, you have worked hard all day, drink this bowl of goat's milk, retire and rest early." Dugu Jialuo did not answer Yang Jian's inquiry, and ordered the Yuan stomach beside him with a smile.

A maid brought a bowl of steaming goat's milk for the Yuan stomach, and the Yuan stomach hugged his fist to the queen to thank him, and he did not shirk it, took the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, raised his hand to wipe his mouth, and said to Dugu Jia Luo with a smile: "Niangniang, the emperor is really tired of a day today, please let the emperor and Niangniang rest early." ”

Yang Jian waved his hand at Yuan Jialuo, and Yuan Jia obeyed the order to withdraw from the hall, Yang Jian approached Dugu Jialuo, looked at her face, and asked with a smile: "The queen is still angry about Ah Zong's incident?" Why did you ignore me? ”

Dugu Jialuo was still noncommittal to Yang Jian's words, but turned his head and instructed the two maids Yue Gui and Yue Ying to serve Yang Jian first put on a nightgown, and then asked someone to bring two plates of refined dim sum made by the Shang Food Bureau and put them on several cases in the hall for Yang Jian to have supper.

"Da Lang has been worrying lately?" At this time, Dugu Jialuo changed to the usual title used when talking privately between the two of them to ask Yang Jiandao tentatively.

"Why did the lady come here to ask?" Yang Jian stretched out his hand and picked up a piece of snack, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, and asked rhetorically.

"If Da Lang didn't have something to worry about, how could he openly reprimand the prince in front of his subordinates? Seeing that the land has been set up as the prince since you first entered the court as the prime minister's house, and in the past two years, he has been in charge of the government, and the concubines have seen that he has no major faults, and he is still doing things properly. "Dugu Hou knows her husband's temperament very well, and if he doesn't make his words clear, he will never take the initiative to talk about the prince.

"I'll just say, lady, you still have trouble with me for the sake of the incident of arsoning in the middle of the day." Yang Jianda saw Dugu Jialuo get up to greet him as soon as he entered the hall, and guessed that she hadn't slept so late, and she was waiting for herself here, just to ask herself for an explanation about what happened at noon. He also wanted to take this opportunity to have a long conversation with his beloved wife and exchange opinions on some important matters.
