Chapter 80: The Young "Emperor Yang of Sui"

Hearing Concubine Yang's words, Queen Xiao also sighed with emotion, she had experienced the pain of the country's ruin and family ruin, and those previous personal grievances were actually nothing compared to this kind of pain. And after this great disaster, among the royal family of the former Sui Yang family, very few have survived, and the direct royal family is even fewer, she is the only one left in Queen Xiao's generation, as for the generation of children, only Concubine Yang and another Nanyang princess are left, but the hard-lived Nanyang princess has now become a monk, but she doesn't care about mundane things, let alone serve Queen Xiao, so Concubine Yang is almost the only child of Queen Xiao.

After more than ten years of exile, Empress Xiao has taken everything lightly, what glory, wealth, and power are just passing clouds in her heart, the only thing that can't be seen is that the young man "Emperor Yang of Sui" in Chapter 80 has only one family affection left, and what she lacks around her is precisely this family affection that people often ignore.

The husband and son are dead, the only daughter is a monk again, although there is also a grandson Yang Zhengdao, but the relationship between the grandfather and grandson is not very harmonious, Yang Zhengdao set up another mansion after returning to the Tang Dynasty, and does not live in the Sui State Lady's Mansion, so Queen Xiao really has no relatives around her, and even when she is sick, only the people in the house take care of her, except for her younger brother Xiao Yu, there will be no one else to visit her, and there is usually no one to talk to.

Every time she wakes up in the middle of the night, thinking of her husband and son who were killed, Queen Xiao also secretly weeps, and sometimes she even has the intention of committing suicide, after all, what is more tragic than being old and helpless? Although there is a daughter in Chang'an City, she did the thing of being sorry for Concubine Yang back then, and now she is extremely remorseful, but it is too late. So no matter how lonely and lonely Queen Xiao is, she can't pull her son to find Concubine Yang. It's just that what she didn't expect was that Concubine Yang actually came to the door in person today. Visiting her, the titular mother-in-law, made Empress Xiao so pleasantly surprised, she didn't even bother to dress up, and walked quickly to the main hall in her usual clothes, just to catch a glimpse of the eighty chapter boy "Emperor Yang of Sui" Concubine Yang as soon as possible.

Seeing that Empress Xiao was excited, and her thin body was also trembling, Concubine Yang was afraid that she would not be able to stand steadily, so she hurriedly helped her to her seat, and then turned her head and instructed Li Ke and Li Su, "What are you doing there, why don't you come and see your grandmother?" ”

The two of them immediately got up when they heard this. took two steps forward and knelt on the ground and said, "Grandson Li Ke, Li Su." Meet my grandmother! ”

Seeing the two grandsons kneeling in front of her, Queen Xiao's eyes lit up, and she stood up very excitedly, helped the two of them up with one hand, and happily closed her mouth and said: "Hurry up~ Hurry up!" ”

The wrinkles on Empress Xiao's happy face burst into laughter. was about to take a closer look at the two grandsons, and when she saw Li Ke, it was nothing, but when she saw Li Ke's appearance clearly, the smile on her face suddenly froze there, her eyes revealed a look of shock, and her open mouth forgot to close, and she stood there motionless.

When Concubine Yang saw this situation, she also sighed in her heart, and reacted to Queen Xiao. She had expected it a long time ago. Li Ke and Li Su also discovered Queen Xiao's abnormality, the two looked at each other, and they couldn't figure out the situation in front of them, especially Li Su, could it be that flowers had grown on their faces, otherwise why did this grandmother who met for the first time keep an eye on herself?

Empress Xiao's eyes were shocked at first. Then there was confusion, and finally turned into a kind of ecstasy, and then with tears of excitement, he stepped forward and grabbed Li Su's arm tightly, and hissed like an old cuckoo crying blood: "Your Majesty~ Your Majesty!" ”

This scared Li Su a lot, and wondered if this old lady was suffering from Alzheimer's? Why do you suddenly call yourself Your Majesty? How can such a title be called indiscriminately? If it reaches the ears of those who care about it, maybe it will really kill people?

Li Ke was also frightened, and looked at Concubine Yang for help. I saw that Concubine Yang sighed, one hand would hold Empress Xiao's arm, and the other hand patted the other party's back, and said softly: "Mother, my father has been dead for many years, and the one standing in front of you is my son and your grandson, but he is very similar to my father." ”

Empress Xiao is also a woman with an extremely strong heart, just now I suddenly saw Li Su's appearance, it was exactly the same as her husband's youth, and under the agitation of the mood, she was fascinated for a while, and mistook Li Su for her husband Yang Guang, so she called out the word Your Majesty, but then reason prevailed, after all, people can't be resurrected after death, and her husband was already in his fifties when he died, how could he suddenly become a teenager and stand in front of him? At this time, Concubine Yang's explanation brought Queen Xiao back to reality.

But even if she knew that the person in front of her was not her husband, Queen Xiao still looked at Li Su with blank eyes, and tears flowed in her dim eyes: it has been more than ten years, her husband has been dead for more than ten years, and she can only see her husband in dreams these years, but now Li Su in front of her, whether it is appearance or temperament, is exactly the same as Yang Guang back then, and even she, the closest person, will admit her mistake.

When Da Sui was still there, Yang Guang was Empress Xiao's day, the two were young couples, and they had gone through many ups and downs along the way, but no matter how big things happened, as long as her husband was there, Empress Xiao was extremely at ease, because she knew that her husband was the emperor of the world and the master of the world, and nothing could make it difficult for him.

But suddenly one day, her sky collapsed, and after she died in the country, she began to live a life of wandering and loneliness, and even in order to preserve the last bit of Yang's blood, she had to commit herself to the thief, and suffered the humiliation of the world, sometimes she would also have whimsical fantasies, how good it would be if her husband was still there, if he was still alive, he would definitely not let himself suffer so much, and he didn't have to be like a rootless duckweed, let others bully but could only endure silently.

Thinking of the scenery and warmth when her husband was there, and thinking of the desolation of the old environment now, even if Queen Xiao was strong, she couldn't help but lose her heart and cried bitterly. Concubine Yang looked at her tearful mother-in-law in front of her, where is there still the demeanor of the mother in the world, now she is just a poor old man, a poor old woman who has lost her husband, son, and grandson. Looking at Queen Xiao's appearance, Concubine Yang also felt a sour feeling in her heart, stretched out her hand to hold her in her arms, and the knot between mother and daughter finally disappeared without a trace.

And Li Su is now in shock, he didn't know until today. It turned out that his appearance was very similar to his grandfather of two hundred and five, no wonder Li Shimin didn't like him so much before. Although there are also reasons why Li Su was too stubborn in the past, his appearance must also account for a large part.

Li Ke was also looking at Li Su carefully, and at the same time he was thinking in his heart: His grandfather, who caused chaos in the world, is Changliulang like this? But speaking of which, the two are really a bit alike, Liulang is not a worry-free lord, so he can say that he is definitely one of the best among several brothers, but he doesn't think about it, regardless of his stuffy head, if he really makes him the throne of the Tang Dynasty. It is very likely to reproduce the scene of the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Empress Xiao hugged Concubine Yang and cried non-stop. It seems that the grievances they have suffered over the years have to be vented, and the surrounding servants have retreated with interest, and only Concubine Yang and the four of them are left in the palace.

After a long while, Empress Xiao stopped crying, turned around and wiped her eyes with Li Su's back. Only then did he turn around, and said in a hoarse voice: "Ke'er, Su'er, my grandmother lost her temper just now, but it made you laugh." ”

"Mother, both of them are your juniors, how dare they be disrespectful to you?" Concubine Yang saw that Empress Xiao had finally regained her composure, and said with some joy.

"What my mother said was that my grandmother had a deep relationship with my grandfather and saw her grandson. For a while, I am obsessed with my grandfather who died early, so I am so out of shape, but this also shows that my grandmother has a deep love for your husband and wife, and it is too late for your grandson to envy you, so where will you make fun of it? Li Su deliberately made an envious expression and said seriously.

At his age. It would have seemed a bit funny to say such old-fashioned words, after all, in the eyes of others, where would he know what kind of husband and wife love at a young age? But this is what Li Su wants, after all, when Queen Xiao cries like this, the atmosphere in the hall is a little embarrassing, so I want to enliven the atmosphere, and there is no embarrassment when everyone laughs.

After Concubine Yang and Li Ke heard Li Su's words, they couldn't help laughing, but Empress Xiao was stunned, her eyes became confused again, and she muttered to herself: "It's like ~ really like ~ it's exactly the same as him back then!" ”、

However, Empress Xiao came to her senses immediately after speaking, but she was so old, she didn't have to worry about anything, she generously showed a loving smile to Li Su, and after beckoning Concubine Yang and Li Ke to sit down, she pulled Li Su by her side, and asked questions with great concern, and even Li Su did not miss the matter of eating several bowls of rice every day.

It's just that what makes Li Yu a little strange is that his grandmother doesn't seem to know anything about him, and she doesn't even know about her engagement to Xiao Wenxin, it is said that Xiao Yu is her own brother, and the two have a good relationship, and they will come to see him from time to time, how can they not even know about this kind of thing?

And after Queen Xiao heard about the marriage between Li Yu and Xiao Wenxin, she first babbled a few words about Xiao Yu, but then she was very happy, and said that she would let Xiao Yu bring Xiao Wenxin another day, and she would check for Li Yu, if she couldn't pass it, then give him another one, anyway, Xiao Yu has a lot of granddaughters, and she will definitely be able to find a suitable one.

Empress Xiao only cared about Li Ke, but put her other grandson Li Ke aside. However, Li Ke was not dissatisfied, he could understand this situation, and at the same time, he finally knew why his mother was so sorry for Li Su, probably because his younger brother looked very similar to his grandfather.

Concubine Yang and Li Su chatted with Queen Xiao, and had a meal at her place at noon, the family was happy, and finally made this cold hall more angry, until it was almost dark, Queen Xiao reluctantly let them go back, and told them that they must come to see her more if they have nothing to do in the future, of course, this sentence is mainly said to Li Su.

Just when Concubine Yang was about to get up and leave with Li Su and Li Ke, suddenly Queen Xiao patted her head, remembered something, hurriedly stopped them, and then instructed Wu Liang'an, the old eunuch standing beside her: "Liang'an, you go and I will bring the sandalwood box at the head of my bed, today I am so happy that I am confused, how can I not have a meeting gift when Su'er and Ke'er come to my house for the first time?" ”

Wu Liangan was stunned when he heard Empress Xiao's order, and said with a somewhat nervous expression: "Niangniang, those things ......!!
