"Aniang, I'm here!" When he arrived at Concubine Yang, he shouted loudly from a distance in the same Li Ke style.
"A'Niang, we're here too." Jinyang and Chengyang Xiao Li Ke called, and the two little guys followed suit. In fact, they shouldn't call them "A Niang", but it's not an exaggeration to call them "A Niang".
When Concubine Yang in the room heard this, she hurriedly walked out. It wouldn't matter if it was just Li Ke. When she heard the voice of Jinyang Chengyang, she could tell. Concubine Yang had a soft temper and was always favored, but she Never one to be arrogant, she knew her place in the harem very well.
She and her nominal sister, another concubine Yang, Li Shimin's sister-in-law, were actually the product of political marriages.
Later generations said that Li Shimin was lustful and had special hobbies. In fact, Li Shimin might be lustful, but marrying his sister-in-law was not really a special hobby, it was all just a political marriage.
Li Shimin married Concubine Yang so that after the collapse of the Sui Dynasty, the Hongnong Yang family, that is, Yang Guang's family, would support the Tang Dynasty. Because of the fall of the Sui Dynasty, there were many factions in the country at the beginning of Li and Tang Dynasties. The influence of the Hongnong Yang family was too great. If they supported the descendants of the former Sui Dynasty, it was not certain whether Li Tang could gain a firm foothold. Later, the Hongnong Yang family did support Datang.
Little Concubine Yang is actually Li Shimin's sister-in-law. Li Shimin's sister-in-law is the grand-niece of Yang Xiong, a noble of the Sui Dynasty. She also belongs to the Hongnong Yang family, but there are different voices in the same aristocratic family, and Yang Xiong's One branch, after Li Shimin married Concubine Yang, he stopped entangled with her.
For example, the five surnames and seven looks do not seem to exist among Li Shimin's concubines, but this is not the case. It is very simple. The former crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng, was also Li Shimin's sister-in-law Zheng Guanyin, who was the direct descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang!
It's just that they didn't expect that Li Shimin would bring about the Xuanwu Gate incident.
The relationship here is too complicated, and Li Ke honestly hasn't figured it out yet.
Concubine Yang knew her status very well. After marrying Li Shimin, she had always played the role of a concubine, so this was the reason why Li Shimin doted on her.
"Auntie." Concubine Yang came out, and Changle also saluted Concubine Yang.
Changle received education relatively early, so naturally she would not bark after Li Ke. She did not need to consider the impact of the title like other princes, so she still followed the original title of the Tang Dynasty.
"Hey! Come on, come on in, Ke'er, why are you bringing so many things?" Concubine Yang asked with a smile.
"I'm here to give you something, Queen Mother. This is a gift my father bought for you." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Your Majesty bought it?" Concubine Yang was stunned for a moment, or was it bought for her? This is new, mainly because Li Shimin usually wants to spend money but has no place to spend it.
Li Ke quickly asked people to carry the mirrors into Concubine Yang's palace, and then took out the mercury mirror to show it to Concubine Yang.
"This..." Concubine Yang was also amazed when she saw the mercury mirror, "Did you make this?"
"Yes. It's not that my father feels sorry for you and bought this mirror for the queen mother and all the other mothers and concubines." Li Ke said with a smile.
"You are still collecting money from your father." Concubine Yang glared at Li Ke. Only her son could do this.
Sometimes Concubine Yang was helpless. She was originally a cautious person, but as a result, she gave birth to a son who was extremely courageous. Many times, she was frightened, fearing that one day he would anger Li Shimin.
Over the years, she has really been scared by Li Ke a lot. Fortunately, although this boy is bold and goes out of his way, he also has a sense of restraint and does not do anything too out of the ordinary. Later, Concubine Yang gradually thought about it. The main thing is actually Li Shimin secretly comforted her.
"Mom, I didn't ask for this on my own initiative. I refused to ask for it no matter what, but my father insisted on giving it! He said that this was his responsibility as a man, and you are his women and daughters. For the sake of his own women and daughters, Spending money is the right thing to do, and it's a matter of course. I can't do it even if I don't want it." Li Ke said quickly.
Concubine Yang glared at Li Ke. She believed at most 30% of what he said. How could she not know what kind of person her son was?
"Auntie, Aye bought it for you, just accept it. Besides, it's right to give money to Third Brother. Third Brother also spent a lot of money to make this. Besides, Third Brother doesn't have much income." Chengyang said loudly.
"You guys, just go to your third brother. I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup he poured into you." Concubine Yang said with a smile.
"Hehe, that's because Third Brother often brings us fun and delicious food." Jin Yang also said with a smile.
"My love for you is not in vain. Third brother will bring you some good things in a few days." Li Ke said with a smile and touched the little heads of Jinyang and Chengyang.
"Thank you, third brother." The two little guys didn't know what politeness meant, so they thanked them directly.
After sitting with Concubine Yang for half an hour, Changle left with Chengyang and Jinyang. She knew that her third brother might have something to say to her aunt, or that Changle was a sensible girl and Changsun Chong was not worthy of her!
As soon as Changle and the others left, Concubine Yang stared and asked, "Are you meddling in the marriage between Changle and Changsun's family again?"
"Why do you call me blending? As a brother, of course I have to make the decision for my sister." Li Ke said simply.
"You..." Concubine Yang hesitated for a moment. There were some things she couldn't say. The princes in the harem were all said to have the same father, but not the same mother. After all, there was a difference between closeness and distance. As Concubine Yang who has experienced two royal families, she has seen too much.
But his son has never cared about this. He treats everyone equally, including princes like Li Chengqian. Oh, he has some trouble with Li Tai, but this is also because Li Tai has a bad attitude towards him.
Li Ke has this kind of character. If you have a good relationship with me, I will be with you. He does it completely according to his own preferences. However, he was extremely strict with Li Min, and Concubine Yang also saw this. He knew that because Li Min was his half-brother, Li Ke was somewhat different, and boys should be stricter.
If Li Min doesn't care anymore, something will really happen. Li Min doesn't act like Li Ke. Li Ke seems to be causing trouble, but there are rules in causing trouble, but Li Min doesn't know anything.
"Hey!" Thinking of this, Concubine Yang sighed again. She knew why her son was good to Changle and the three of them. It was true that they had a good relationship. In fact, it was also true that he was for her as a mother.
Even though Li Shimin doted on her, because of her status as a former princess, she had always been ostracized in the harem. Li Ke was good to his three sisters, and Queen Changsun naturally took good care of her.
Her son seemed a little confused, but he was also very sensible. He had known how to help her share the pressure since he was a child, so she couldn't be too harsh on him now.
"Mom, why are you sighing? By the way, has Li Min taken money from you again recently?" Li Ke suddenly remembered what Changle told him a few days ago about Li Min taking money from her.
Because Changle was the eldest princess, Li Shimin had always loved her very much, so the monthly allowance given to her was much more than that of Li Ke and the others. Moreover, Changle didn't have much to spend money on, so he had a lot of small treasury.
"No, mother listened to you and didn't give it to him." Concubine Yang was a little helpless, mainly because Li Min really didn't live up to expectations. In the early years, Li Min had to sell her own jewelry to subsidize Li Min.
Concubine Yang did not have much money at that time. In fact, Queen Changsun did not have much money in the past few years. Because after the Zhenguan Year, there were several years of great disasters and the national treasury was not full, so Li Shimin was very frugal.
