When Mrs. Chen of Xuanhua returned to Renshou Hall, Liu Shu had just finished his report and resigned.
Mrs. Chen brought some decoction from the palace maid and fed it to Yang Jian spoonful by spoonful.
"I just met His Highness the King of Hedong outside. Life is passing so fast. His Highness is already so tall."
Yang Jian sighed softly: "The children are getting older, and I am getting older too."
"Your Majesty, please don't say such things again. You are not old at all, but that Liu Shangshu looks so old," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
"Hahaha..." Yang Jian was amused by her words. Her son-in-law was older than herself, which sounded quite interesting.
Mrs. Chen added: "Your Highness is very polite. He just chatted with me outside for a while and they were very happy. Unlike His Highness the Crown Prince, when he saw me, his nose was not my nose, my face was not my face."
Yang Guang's disdain for Chen was evident on his face, because in Yang Guang's view, Chen was just a sleeping companion and had no right to be taken seriously by him.
But Yang Guang's attitude made Yang Jian very unhappy. He didn't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face. He was now completely dependent on Chen's care and service. Yang Guang's bad attitude would make Yang Jian feel that his dick's wings were stiff. Dare not to take the people around you seriously.
"This kid Ming'er has known etiquette since he was a child," Yang Jian praised.
Mrs. Xuanhua smiled and said: "He is very interesting. Chatting with him is a very happy thing. When the Supreme Lord is free, you might as well summon more His Highness. Maybe it can make you feel better."
"Oh?" Yang Jian smiled and said, "What were you two talking about?"
Mrs. Chen first finished feeding the decoction, then put a blanket on Yang Jian, and said slowly:
"My brother's eldest daughter has been taken as a concubine by His Highness. I heard that His Highness treated her well, so I told Your Highness that if there is a chance in the future, I can bring Shuyi over and let our aunt The two nephews see each other more often."
Yang Jian nodded: "I have an impression of that girl. I made an exception and allowed her to come to Renshou Palace so that she can spend more time with you."
"I bow to express my gratitude to Your Majesty," Ms. Chen quickly clasped her hands in salute.
Yang Jian was thinking about another thing at this time, when to kill Chen Shubao.
The fact that this person is alive is a worry in Yang Jian's heart.
Although Chen Shubao is now a lost dog and his situation in Daxing is quite miserable, Yang Jian is still worried.
The old Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Qi Dynasty and wiped out the entire Gao family. Yang Jian usurped the Zhou Dynasty and wiped out the Yuwen family. After the Sui Dynasty destroyed the Chen family, not many people in the old Chen family died.
The reason why Chen Shubao was not killed back then was because he was afraid of causing unrest in the Jiangnan region. Now that the south had surrendered to the Sui Dynasty for fourteen years and was gradually becoming more stable, killing Chen Shubao at this time was already a matter of course.
Of course, Yang Jian would not kill him openly. It would be best if he died of illness.
This matter must be left to a safe person, and Yang Jian has not thought of a suitable person yet.
.......
After Yang Ming left Renshou Palace, he returned to Daxing overnight.
He was attending the court meeting hosted by the prince in the East Palace, not Renshou Palace. When he returned to the capital, it was early the next morning and he had missed the court meeting that day.
After resting all morning, Yang Ming asked someone to call Chen Shuyi.
"Your aunt, I hope you will go to Renshou Palace to spend more time with her. You are idle at home anyway, so just go there in the next few days."
….
Chen Shuyi and Mrs. Xuanhua actually had no feelings for each other. They were only seven or eight years apart in age. They were not very familiar with each other when they were in the old Chen Palace.
So she wasn't interested in Yang Ming's proposal at all.
"I won't go. When she was in the palace, she didn't want to see me, but now she wants to see me again. Who knows what her intentions are."
Yang Ming suddenly became unhappy. This girl is really not decent. She always goes against her own will. Who has the final say, me or you?
"I'll go tomorrow. There's no need to discuss it. Also, if you make her angry, don't come back," Yang Ming said with an ugly face.
Chen Shuyi sighed helplessly
: "Okay, okay, you are too arbitrary and leave no room for negotiation on anything."
Yang Ming said blankly: "Sister, you are neither the main concubine nor the side concubine. What do I have to discuss with you?"
"But I met you earlier than they did?" Chen Shuyi complained: "But you always refuse to let me sleep with you."
She is four years older than Yang Ming and is now twenty. She is nominally Yang Ming's concubine, but she had sex with Yang Ming once when they were in Jingzhou.
When Yang Ming saw her today, she thought she would have the opportunity to serve Yang Ming, but unexpectedly she arranged an errand for herself.
Now that we are gone, the next time we have sex is far away.
In a woman's mind, being unable to have sex with her husband is a very shameful thing. It will make the servants look down on you and think that you are definitely not good enough, so they are not welcomed by the head of the family.
In fact, the first time between Yang Ming and her didn't feel much at all, because Yang Ming was tired and sleepy at the time, and the whole process didn't feel like enjoyment, but rather like a kind of torture.
Seeing that Yang Ming remained silent, Chen Shuyi took the initiative and said, "Where are you staying tonight?"
Yang Ming said angrily: "Do I need to tell you where I live?"
Chen Shuyi almost fainted from anger, turned around and left, but was stopped by Yang Ming:
"By the way, when you are free, go and see your grandmother more often. Don't be so unfilial to your grandson. She also lives in Daxing now."
Chen Shuyi's grandmother is called Liu Jingyan. Yes, she was born in the Liu family in Hedong, and she is Chen Shubao's biological mother. After the fall of the Chen Dynasty, she was canonized as the Grand Lady of the Great Wall by Yang Jian. She originally lived in Luoyang and recently moved to Daxing.
The Sui Dynasty, including the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the Southern Chen Dynasty, were all marriages between different groups of people. This family married that family, and that family married this family. Anyway, they couldn't escape this circle.
The powerful clans are all monolithic, and even the emperor is not willing to provoke them easily. If you do this, you will also offend the other one. One after another, you can find out a bunch of them.
Although the Dugu family belongs to the Xianbei ethnic group, Dugu Jialuo's biological mother was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, an orthodox Han ethnic group.
The entire ruling class of the Sui Dynasty was, in the final analysis, the same thing.
Some people even used one sentence to describe the Guanlong Group back then: The emperor takes turns to sit and come to my house today.
The person who said this was executed by Yang Jian from nine tribes.
This was the first time that Chen Shuyi heard that her grandmother had moved into Daxing. After a brief pause, she quickly nodded and said:
"Then can I go to Renshou Palace later?"
Yang Ming nodded: "Okay, when you go to see your grandmother, you can go to the warehouse to pick out some gifts. Don't be shabby."
….
Chen Shuyi pursed her lips, turned around and left.
That night, Yang Ming stayed at Pei Shuying's place.
It has to be said that the land east of Hedong is really full of outstanding people. There is a Liu family and a Pei family. Their descendants are all over the world, and capable people emerge in large numbers. It is hard for Yang Ming to imagine how so many powerful people can emerge from a small place.
After dinner, Yang Ming chatted with Pei Shuying about her hometown on the bed.
Pei Shuying was born in Wenxi County and came to Daxing when she was about four years old. Even though she has lived in Daxing for so many years, she has always only regarded Wenxi as her hometown.
She is a woman, so she will be buried with her husband in the future. She will be buried wherever Yang Ming is buried in the future.
If he is a man, he will definitely be buried in Wenxi. No matter how prominent he was during his lifetime, unless he is favored by the emperor and allowed to be buried with him after his death, he can only be buried in the soil of his hometown.
In Pei Shuying's impression, everyone in Wenxi's hometown seems to have the surname Pei. In fact, this is called survivor bias, because it is difficult for her to come into contact with people named other than Pei, so she has this illusion.
But it's not an exaggeration. Half of the people in Wenxi County are named Pei. This is an indisputable fact.
Just like half of the people in Jie County have the surname Liu, Liu Shu was born in the Liu family's Xijuanfang in Hedong, and Chen Shuyi's grandmother Liu Jingyan was born in the Dongjuanfang. They are both from the same ancestor.
According to Pei Shuying, since she came to Daxing, she has been able to see her tribe members often.
It seems that in every corner of Daxing, there is someone named Pei.
Yes, my younger brother Pei Xuanji often caused trouble outside when he was hanging out with layman Liu, but afterwards he didn't need his grandfather to come forward, because his clan members would calm things down behind his back.
The Twelve Wei Mansion, Chang'an County, Daxing County County Government, Shangshu Province, Menxia Province, Neishi Province, and Eleven Temples all have the surname Pei.
At present, the Pei family in Hedong has his father Pei Ju as the main backbone, including Pei Yun, who is highly respected by the Supreme Being. The first thing he thinks of when encountering problems is to consult with Pei Ju.
Pei Yun is that strange man who Gao Jiong sued him once and was promoted to an official.
It was not until the defendant arrived at the Shangkaifu Yitong Third Division that Gao Jiong gave up and did not dare to sue again for fear that he would be sued as Shangzhuguo.
Yang Jian sometimes ennobles officials, but he is so willful and even a bit playful.
Li Min, the son-in-law of the eldest daughter Yang Lihua, was also in the same situation back then. After marrying her daughter Yuwen Eying, Yang Lihua hoped that her father Yang Jian would be awarded a honorary title.
Because Li Min himself attacked his father Li Chong's Guangzong County Duke, he was not awarded the title.
Yang Jian just gave him the title of "Yitong Sansi", but Yang Lihua smiled and said nothing.
Yang Jian gave it to Shangyi Tongsansi again, and Yang Lihua still smiled slightly.
In this way, the father and daughter bargained and finally sealed Li Minzhu's kingdom and became the governor of Pu, Jin, Hua and Fu.
He has no merit at all. Just because he married Yang Lihua's daughter, he rose to the top in one fell swoop.
Pei Shuying especially liked the feeling of lying in Yang Ming's arms in the dead of night, while the couple chatted.
In her opinion, Yang Ming gave her everything she could have, including the husband's respect and love for his wife. With a husband like this, what more could a wife ask for?
Sensing that Yang Ming was interested in playing poker, Pei Shuying quickly dissuaded her:
"My husband has to attend the court meeting tomorrow, and he just came back from Renshou Palace yesterday. He's feeling tired, so he'd better rest early."
Regarding Pei Shuying's thoughtfulness, Yang Ming felt warm in his heart:
"I'm afraid you care about these things."
"No," Pei Shuying curled up in Yang Ming's arms and said softly, "I have already thought about it. When Yin Jiang gives birth to an heir for you, we can have another child."
Yang Ming nodded: "I regard your child as my legitimate son."
"It's the same..." Pei Shuying closed her eyes and murmured: "I am content to be by your side."
After all, Yang Ming couldn't hold it back. When Pei Shuying wanted to welcome her but refused, the couple played poker.
This time, he didn't use birth control.
