"Alas, don't hide it from the prince, Niangniang and the princess had a little trouble with the princess a few days ago because of the marriage of the Tang Gong, and the emperor recently brought up the old things, and wanted to force the princess to accept the title of Princess Leping of the Great Sui, and asked the princess to persuade the princess to change her mind, as a result, the princess was furious on the spot, and before our family left Beijing and went north, she was clamoring to move out of the palace to live. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" He Zhu'er sighed and said, "Niangniang ordered our family to pass a message to the prince, remembering that the princess and the prince are the best on weekdays, and ask the prince to write a letter to our family to take back to Chang'an, and persuade the princess not to move out of the palace to live, alienating the relationship between mother and son." ”

Yang Guangsu knew that the eldest sister Yang Lihua insisted on refusing to accept the title of Princess Leping of the Great Sui, mostly to express her strong dissatisfaction with her father Yang Jian's ascension to the throne of the former dynasty, massacring the clan of the former dynasty and killing the emperor Yu Wenxian at the end of the previous dynasty, but because of this, she wanted to move out of the palace to live, which is not quite like the eldest sister's consistent style of acting.

He frowned and thought for a while, and asked He Zhu'er: "I just heard my father-in-law talk about Tang's marriage, what is going on?" How could my mother and eldest sister get angry because of my cousin's marriage? ”

"When I mentioned this, Niangniang was originally well-intentioned. Does the prince still remember the former empress Sima Luo who was rescued from the Stone House Courtyard before you left Beijing? ”

"Of course I do. Could it be that the queen mother wants to marry Sima Luo to her cousin as a wife? Yang Guang's eyes widened and he asked.

"Exactly. Although Sima Luo's father Sima Zhennan took refuge in Nan Chen a few years ago and was named the Duke of the Kingdom, Niangniang remembered that Sima Luo was still young at the time, and most of them did not participate in his father's rebellion, and he took pity on her marrying into the palace when she was young, and now she was at a prime age to be widowed for the dead Yuwen Yan, so she mentioned to the princess that she wanted to marry Sima Luo to Tang Gong as his wife. Within two days, Sima Luo didn't know where to hear about it, and he was looking for death to explain the martyrdom for Yuwen, so that a happy event made it seem like his mother forced Sima Luo to remarry. Lord, you say, the mother is not aggrieved. ”

Cousin Li Yuan, Duke of Tang Guo, has always been appreciated and trusted by his mother, Dugu Jialuo, how could the queen mother suddenly think of marrying a widowed queen of the former dynasty to Li Yuan? There must be another reason for this.

"This king remembers, my cousin seems to be three years older than me, since the eldest sister does not agree to Sima Luo's remarriage, has the queen mother ever found another family for her cousin?" Yang Guangqing knew that he was directly asking about the reason, and He Zhu'er probably wouldn't say it, so he asked in a roundabout way.

"The prince also knows that Tang Gong is a very useful person around Niangniang, and Niangniang will naturally worry about his marriage." He Zhu'er replied with a smile, "Speaking of which, Tang Gong is also fated with this Miss Dou family, and the mother wants to match Sima Luo with Tang Gong, so she fell in love with the niece of the current dynasty Taifu Dou Chi, who knows that this Miss Dou is also a high-minded and arrogant person, even if the queen personally came forward to make peace, she still had a problem for the person who proposed to her: in the main hall of her house, a newly minted 'Kaihuang Wuzhu' copper coin was hung, and anyone who could break the silk thread hanging the copper coin with an arrow ten steps away agreed to marry this person as his wife. Lord, you say, this matter is not strange. ”

"Then my cousin is going to stand out and dominate the crowd, right?" Yang Guang thought that Li Yuan had followed Changsun Sheng to learn archery with him, and asked with a smile.

"The prince is wise, it is true, there are no less than 100 sons of various families who rushed to Dou Mansion to propose marriage that day, but none of them can shoot the silk thread with an arrow and shoot the copper coin down. When Miss Dou saw this scene, she had nothing to say, so she had to obey Niangniang's wishes and marry Tang Gong. ”

Miss Dou? When the niece of the imperial prince, this daughter is not the Empress Dowager Dou, the mother of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, right? Yang Guang was taken aback, and his heart was even more suspicious: the Dou family can also be called the important ministers of the previous dynasty, if I remember correctly, the Dou family is still related to the royal family of the previous dynasty, why does the queen mother choose some queens and relatives of the previous dynasty for her cousin to marry her?

"That's why the Dou family married their daughter to their cousin?"

"How can that? The prince didn't know, and there have been rumors in Beijing recently: Emperor Jing Yuwen of the previous dynasty was not killed by demons in the Hongsheng Palace, but was taken by the gods of heaven to a sacred mountain in the north to station, and obtained 100,000 heavenly soldiers from the heavenly court, and is planning to lead the troops back to Chang'an and restore the former dynasty. For this reason, the former courtiers, including the Dou family, are ready to move, and they don't know what to do. Originally, the Dou family saw that Tang Gong shot down the copper coin with an arrow, and wanted to use the excuse to push off this family business, but they didn't expect that this Miss Dou family was a very serious person, regardless of the obstruction of the elders in the family, she wanted to marry Tang Gong as his wife. In this way, a marriage between the two of them was achieved by accident. ”

This time, Yang Guang can be regarded as understanding: it turned out that after Yuwen Praruo took Yuwen Yue captive to the Turkic territory, he had released the wind and began to implement her restoration plan with Yuwen Yue as the incarnation of the late Emperor Jing of the former dynasty. At the same time, since Yuwen Panruo spread rumors that the late emperor of the previous dynasty was not dead and wanted to raise troops to restore to confuse those old ministers in the court, if Yang Lihua, the eldest sister of the former queen mother, can accept the title of Princess Da Sui at this time, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the restoration forces led by Yuwen Panruo.

Once the cause and effect of the matter are understood, Yang Guang will be relieved, whether from the perspective of helping his father and queen mother stabilize the court situation, or considering the future of the eldest sister and daughter, Yang Guang believes that even if the eldest sister Yang Lihua is unwilling to accept the title of Princess Dasui, it is definitely not appropriate to move out of the palace to live at this time, so he agreed to write a handwritten letter, asked He Zhu'er to bring it back to Chang'an, and strongly persuaded the eldest sister to stay in the palace to live.

However, the day after He Zhu'er arrived in Bingzhou and conveyed the emperor's edict to Yang Guang, Xiao Er and others, an even more bizarre thing happened.

On this morning, Yang Guang had just come to the main hall of Jinyang Palace, and he received a report: outside the palace gate, the Turkic prince Yongyu Lu sent someone to give him a generous gift.

Yang Guang secretly wondered in his heart: This is not festive and year-old, it is good and decent, how could Yongyu Lu think of giving himself a gift, and he kept claiming that it was a generous gift?

"Pass him in."

After a short time, the two Turkic generals followed him into the main hall, and the one who walked in front bowed to Yang Guang and said: "My prince is ordered by the Great Khan to send this generous gift to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and to show the sincerity of the friendship between the Great Khan and the Sui Dynasty. After speaking, he turned around and signaled to the person behind him, and the person who walked behind came to Yang Guang with a brocade box in both hands, raised the brocade box above his head, and presented it to Yang Guang.

"Open it and see what kind of gift your great khan has given to this king." Yang Guang waved his hand and gestured to Xian Yuluo, who was standing beside him.

Just in case, Xian Yuluo pulled the Turkic envoy to a place a little far away from Yang Guang, and then stretched out his hand to open the brocade box, but after a look, he exclaimed in surprise: "Lord Wang, it's a human head!" ”
