Chapter 358 Three Daughters and Three Babies in the Deep Palace
After many years, Luoyang is still that Luoyang, its prosperity has not been affected by the war in the south, the streets are still bustling with people and cars, and the shops on both sides are sent to Goolan Washi Shengsong and Yan Dance, a rich and prosperous scene.
Listen carefully, there are still certain changes in the market, there will always be people in the teahouse restaurant, commenting on the war situation in the south, these comments, there is only one mainstream tone, that is, the reverse Zhou will die, and the glory of the Tang Dynasty will surely regain its glory in Kyushu.
Yang Ping'an, who has a deeper understanding of the shadow guard, scoffs at this kind of comment, he knows very well that many of the people who talk loudly are in the shadow guard's disguise, the purpose is to stabilize the people's hearts, of course, it is not excluded that there are some hot-blooded dung and speculators with ulterior motives.
Diametrically opposed to this kind of high-minded talk, in many places in the market, it is still the Mandate of Heaven or Yang Ping'an who is discussed in private, but the imperial court issued a decree that no one is allowed to talk about this matter, otherwise it will be sent to justice by the official, so people can only whisper in private, a few friends who are very close.
There has been no shortage of shameless villains since ancient times, and some people have listened to their friends' discussions, and then they went to report to the official in exchange for rewards and fame.
The high-pressure policy of the Northern Tang Dynasty finally suppressed this limelight, but it is difficult to completely cut it off.
Yang Ping'an's return to the Eastern Capital and his return to the Horse Mansion can be described as a secret, there was no slightest storm in Luoyang City, and the Dragon Shadow Guard was strictly escorted along the way, not allowing anyone to approach, and Yang Ping'an was not allowed to move around at will, as if he was under house arrest.
However, they didn't dare to offend Yang Ping'an, after all, the Mandate of Heaven said that it had a nose and eyes, and many people in the Dragon Guard and Shadow Guard believed it, but their identity determined that they didn't dare to show it, but they didn't dare to offend Yang Ping'an, and they didn't even say a hard word.
Yang Ping'an once thought that Yang Rui couldn't help but do it to himself, otherwise there would be no need to do this, and he would be cautious along the way, for fear that these Dragon Shadow Guards would find a remote and uninhabited place to kill themselves.
When he received the holy decree, he thought several times about raising troops to raise an army, establish a base centered on Yangzhou, [***], and Tianchang, and fight against the Northern Tang Dynasty with the help of the Southern Zhou.
But he didn't dare to do this, because Su Min's mother and son, Su Jia, Zhenniang and others were still in Yang Rui's hands.
Maybe things haven't come to that point, otherwise the Holy Decree wouldn't have used the excuse of his marriage to Snow White to order him to return to Beijing.
It's just that he didn't let anyone return to the Eastern Capital, which always made him a little apprehensive.
However, when he successfully returned to Luoyang, he guessed that Yang Rui did not intend to do it to himself, at least not yet, most likely because he wanted him to marry Snow White, to show that rumors are just rumors, he is by no means a Mandate of Heaven, and even the world has never had a Mandate of Heaven.
This is just Yang Ping'an's guess, and Yang Rui's true thoughts he is not sure at all, since ancient times, it is the most difficult to guess the heart of the king, and if he is not careful, it will be the end of the head falling to the ground.
Therefore, before he returned, he also made sufficient preparations.
The shameless trio has been tested many times, and has gained his trust, before coming back, he directly provoked An Lushan and Yang Guozhong, if one day he and Yang Rui turned against each other, let the two of them immediately raise troops and return to Tang.
He was not afraid that these two would betray him, even if Li Linfu knew about it, he would not dare, because although this couple was not a good thing, he was definitely a smart person and could see the situation clearly.
Once Yang Rui poisoned him, as the henchmen of his henchmen, the shameless trio had only one way to die, unless they took refuge in Nan Zhou.
Before leaving, he specifically told Yang An and the others that as long as the news came out of the capital, he would be placed under house arrest or imprisoned, and immediately surrender to the city, dedicate Yangzhou and other places to the Southern Zhou, and at the same time lead the Zhou army all the way north to attack Luoyang.
As for whether Zhou Jun will cooperate so much, there is no doubt about it, because Xie Aman returned to Nanjing, for the safety of Yang Ping'an, she went to ask Wu Cong to help, even if she died because of betraying Tiance, she had to beg Wu Cong to help Yang Ping'an.
Although this move was proposed by Xie Aman, Yang Ping'an agreed without stumbling, he was 100% sure that Wu Cong would not hurt Xie Aman, unless Wu Cong really broke off his friendship with him, but if this was the case, then Wu Cong would not have to come out of the tanuki to change the prince, and left his daughter with Xie Aman in Nanjing.
The painstaking efforts to make such a show were completely out of the jealousy of women, including Xie Aman, who was under house arrest before.
Therefore, Xie Aman's return to Nanjing is a good thing, at least Yang Ping'an does not have to worry about Xie Aman's risk for himself and what accidents will happen.
Regarding Wu Cong's heart, his judgment was very accurate, but it was incomplete.
When Xie Aman secretly left Yangzhou and got in touch with Tian Cewei, he was soon arranged to return to Nanjing and enter the palace.
After being cooled in the palace for three days, she was taken to a garden in the southwest corner of the Imperial Garden, where Yang Cao summoned her.
In the southwest corner of the Imperial Garden, there is a small garden opened up by Yang Cao, which is planted with exotic flowers and plants, and a wooden house has been built, and the outside of the garden is heavily guarded, and no one is allowed to enter without her hand, and the offender will be killed.
After Xie Aman was taken to the gate of the garden by the eunuch, the eunuch stopped, and the guard at the door pointed his hand and coldly let Xie Aman go in alone, Xie Aman recognized that the guards of these guards should be Tiance Guards, and two of them were known to her.
Entering the garden, she found that although they are all imperial gardens, the scenery inside and outside the garden is very different, although they are all red flowers, green grass, birds and flowers, but the landscape in the garden is not as rich and compelling as outside the garden, but gives people a faint warmth, very comfortable feeling.
Worried in her heart, she had no time to appreciate or think too much, she walked all the way along the bluestone path, and after turning around, she came to the front of the wooden house, and when she saw the situation in front of the wooden house, she gasped.
In front of the wooden house, there were two rocking chairs, covered with soft cushions made of exotic animal skins, on which Yang Cao and a young woman in cloth sat talking and laughing, looking extremely affectionate.
To her surprise, Yang Cao was holding a baby in his arms, and the woman dressed in cloth was holding two babies in her arms, she had heard in the Southern Zhou Dynasty that Yang Cao was immersed in state affairs and had never thought about the affairs of men and women, even if many ministers in the court asked him to give birth to blood as soon as possible, even if he had dozens of concubines in the harem, but he never seemed to have been fortunate with any concubines, let alone a concubine who gave birth to a boy and a half girl for him.
Could it be that the Lord is hiding in the golden house?
This idea is ridiculous, Yang Cao is now the head of a country, and there must be this.
What surprised her even more was that she recognized the young woman in cloth, who was Yang Ping'an's wife Dong'er.
What's going on, is the Lord on him......
Xie Aman didn't dare to think about it, because Yang Cao's gaze had already swept over her, even if she had betrayed Tiance, but she had already had a conditioned reflex to Yang Cao's majesty after many years of Tiance Guard.
"Humble duties see the Lord."
Yang Cao glanced at her lightly and ignored it, but teased the three babies with Dong'er, a warm picture, Xie Aman knelt and didn't kneel, or Dong'er was kind-hearted, and he couldn't look at it and said a few words, Yang Cao said lazily: "Get up." ”
"Thank you, Lord."
"You've already seen your little lover, why are you back again?"
Xie Aman could feel the dissatisfaction in the tone of the Lord of Heavenly Strategy, and it seemed that there was still a little jealousy, which made her a little puzzled.
The majesty of the Lord of Heavenly Policy is not entirely because of the bloodline of the Martial Artist's Heavenly Mandate, but more because of the intelligence and martial arts of the Lord of Heavenly Policy.
Xie Aman believed that the Lord of Heaven must know why he returned to Nanjing, but he said so, and there was a sour taste...... This has never been done before, and it is not in line with the status of the king of a country.
She didn't dare to say more, told the details in detail, and then begged Yang Cao to help Yang Ping'an, and also proposed that she was willing to die to eliminate the anger in Yang Cao's heart, and the position was exchanged for the latter to help Yang Ping'an.
Yang Cao deliberately kept silent with a straight face, as if he was weighing the pros and cons in his heart, but Dong'er was anxious and kept urging.
Dong'er has always lived in the palace, a little isolated, what happened outside was told to her by Yang Cao when she came to see her and a few babies, but she was never told that Yang Ping'an's identity as a Mandate of Heaven was completely exposed, and there was a danger of killing.
"Sister, Xianggong is very dangerous now, you can't ignore it."
Xie Aman was petrified on the spot, and was scorched by Lei and looked at Wu Cong, Dong'er, and Wu Cong, and the cherry mouth was open enough to fit an egg.
"Ahem." Wu Cong coughed, glared angrily at Dong'er, who stuck out his tongue, and resumed his female voice: "Aman, come here, this is your daughter." ”
Mother and daughter are connected, when Xie Aman came to the wooden house, he recognized his daughter, even if she was separated for a few months, and the baby girl changed her clothes again, she could recognize her daughter for the first time.
It's just that she was afraid of offending Yang Cao, so she didn't dare to speak, but just glanced at it from time to time.
"Thank you, Lord."
Xie Aman ran over quickly, took his daughter from Dong'er's hand and hugged her tightly, and kept rubbing her face against the baby's forehead, tears of joy fell silently.
"Sister Aman, in fact, Sister Cong'er is for your good, you go to find your father-in-law, it is inconvenient to take your daughter with you, and it is very dangerous." Dong'er explained softly for Wu Cong.
"I know, I know, I know the Lord is a good ......"
"Forget it." Wu Cong waved his hand, "Women have always had a hard life, you and I are the same, we are both negative guys, Aman, you and I will be commensurate with each other in the future." ”
"Yes, Lord...... Sister Cong'er. ”
Xie Aman is also a smart woman in Bingxue, when she learned that Wu Cong was her daughter, and heard her say this, she immediately understood that the baby in Wu Cong's arms was also Yang Ping'an's flesh and blood, and Wu Cong treated herself like that, most of which was due to the jealousy of women.
"Sister Cong'er, don't talk about anything else, what should I do."
Looking at the worried Dong'er, Wu Cong sighed: "Alas, damn the negative person, our sister is worried about him here, but he ran back to Luoyang to marry another woman...... Don't look at me like that, don't worry, if I didn't guess wrong, the marriage is true, as long as he doesn't mess around, Yang Rui, the faint king, will not attack him in a short time. ”
