Chapter 776: Persuading the husband to take a concubine
Yang Guang was really taken aback by Xiao E's bold idea, and hurriedly reminded her: "Princess, you must know that Ji Wei is still a close subordinate of the eldest brother's side, how can he be willing to report the eldest brother in front of the eldest sister?" It's hard to do. ”
"If the prince can trust the concubine, leave this matter to the concubine, and it will never make the prince feel in a dilemma." Xiao E said confidently.
General Yang Guang looked at Xiao E suspiciously, suddenly stood up, bowed deeply to Xiao E, and said: "Then there is Princess Lao, if you can induce Ji Wei to report this matter to the eldest sister, it can be regarded as a matter of my heart." Have the two babies fallen asleep, let's go and see them together. ”
"Before the prince returned to the house, I had ordered someone to take Zhao'er and Jian'er back to the room to rest. Lord, this time the queen mother left the concubine to live in Chang'an, and the prince will return to Guangling alone, and after the days are long, won't he feel lonely? Xiao Er deliberately led the topic to meet Xuanhua's wife Chen Weiyang during the day, and asked Yang Guangdao with concern.
Yang Guang glanced at Xiao E sensitively, and asked rhetorically, "Why did the princess suddenly think of this?" ”
"Actually, when I was in Zhengyang Palace during the day, it was inconvenient for the prince to look directly at Mrs. Xuanhua, and I didn't see it very really, and after a closer look, there were still many differences between her birth and Sister Ruoxi." Xiao E did not answer Yang Guang's question, but looked at him with a faint gaze and said.
"What nonsense is the princess talking about, you must know that Mrs. Xuanhua is the partial concubine of her father, and she has the name of mother and son with us, how can I ......" Yang Guang was inadvertently broken by Xiao E's words, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed and angry.
"The prince can understand the true intention of the queen mother to arrange for us to meet Mrs. Xuanhua today, and the concubine will be relieved." Xiao Er ignored Yang Guang's annoyance and accusations, and still followed his well-thought-out train of thought and said leisurely, "However, as a princess, the concubine can't bear to see that the prince is still stuck in the old feelings and can't extricate herself, and she has wronged herself too much. ”
"The princess must not be careful, just because Mrs. Xuanhua looks very similar to Ruoxi during the day, I looked at her twice, and I never wanted to find a new love, the princess misunderstood." When Yang Guang heard that Xiao E took the initiative to persuade him to take a concubine, he instinctively defended himself.
Every word that the concubine said at this moment was carefully considered, and there was no intention of testing the prince's mind at all. The prince is a prince and a prince, and it is extremely common for him to be accompanied and cared for by several women. Moreover, the concubine knows that the prince has a deep love for Ruoxi's sister, and she still can't forget her affection, which is also the real reason why the prince has no one to accompany him except for the concubine, however, the deceased has passed away, and she is too obsessed with her thoughts about the prince's body and mind, and there is no benefit. ”
How could Yang Guang believe that Xiao E persuaded him to take a concubine out of sincerity, and listened to Xiao E's words without leaking, which made it difficult for him to refute, so he thought about it and pretended to promise her: "I promised the princess that it would not be possible, if I met the right person in the future, I would definitely come to ask the princess to do good things." It's not early outside, the princess is pregnant, and it is not appropriate to work too hard, so I will accompany the princess back to the room to rest. ”
was so disturbed by Xiao E's initiative to persuade him to take a concubine, Yang Guang deep in his heart because of the encounter with Xuanhua's wife Chen Weiyang in Zhengyang Palace today, a trace of love that had just been stirred up disappeared without a trace.
The queen mother deliberately arranged for Chen Weiyang, who looked similar, to meet her in Zhengyang Palace, undoubtedly to warn herself, and Xiao E took the initiative to persuade herself to take a concubine. With such two women around me watching, I don't know if it's a lucky thing or a misfortune.
Because he adopted Xiao E's advice before returning to Chang'an from Guangling, before Li Jing went to Tiantai Mountain to invite Master Zhiqi to Guangling's reply, he temporarily handed over the affairs of Jiangnan to Zhang Heng and Yu Wenshu and Pei Yun on behalf of Zhang Heng, and hurried back to Chang'an to show his father and mother that he had no intention of storing the position in the East Palace. immediately asked his father Yang Jian for instructions and rushed back to Guangling as soon as possible.
The next day, Yang Guang got up early in the morning, and specially ran to the room of Yang Zhao and Yang Jian to take a look, and saw that the two babies had not woken up yet, nor did they alarm them, and tiptoed back to the front yard, only called Guo Yan to accompany the escort, went out of the palace, and went straight to the Yueguo Mansion.
Yang Su was practicing swords in the small garden outside the study in the mansion, and suddenly had to report that the king of Jin had arrived outside the mansion, and he didn't care about changing his robes, so he hurriedly greeted him, and when he saw Yang Guang, he hugged his fists and saluted: "Yesterday, I came to the door to report to the prince that the envoy had not met, and today I wanted to visit again, but I didn't expect the prince to come in person so early, please come in quickly." ”
Yang Guang listened to what he said, and sure enough, he came to the palace yesterday to ask for a meeting in order to find the things he had entrusted him to do, so he asked with a smile: "The Duke of Yue Guo is resolute, and he has done what this king entrusted him with so quickly?" ”
Yang Su led Yang Guang to the main hall of Fuzhong, and explained to him: "The prince doesn't know, the situation in the north has not been very peaceful recently, and the day after the Taoist master returned to Beijing, Gao Servant was ordered to lead an army of 100,000 to patrol the border north. The road also received an edict a few days ago, and he was about to follow His Royal Highness the King of Shu to send troops from Lingzhou Road to meet the head, so he wanted to report to the prince before leaving Beijing. ”
"North, northwest at the same time! Why, the Turks are restless again? Yang Guang was secretly taken aback when he heard Yang Su's words, and hurriedly asked him.
Yang Su let Yang Guang into the main hall of the mansion and sat down in the center, and then replied: "The road is also the news that the class master got after returning to Beijing, it is said that the Eastern Turkic Dulan Khan once submitted a table to the emperor, asking the imperial court to allow the army to crusade against the Datou Khan and restore the unity of the Eastern and Western Turks, and the emperor agreed to him. Unexpectedly, in this way, he offended the Datou Khan of the Western Turks, and requisitioned 200,000 troops from the Western Front to return to the east, not only wanting to fight to the death with the Eastern Turks, but also its vanguard invaded the territory of our Great Sui to the south. ”
"Isn't the northwest guarded by the King of Qin and Yu Qingze with an army of 200,000?" Yang Guang was secretly surprised by such a large-scale transfer of troops by the imperial court, but the captain who held the military power in the world did not know it, and asked Yang Sudao tactfully.
