Fourteen women from the Xiao family were brought to Yang Ming. One of them was Xiao Yan, the youngest daughter of Xiao Cong and the younger sister of Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan has now been made another arrangement by the clan, asking him to clear his relationship with Yang Xuan and stop interfering in the water transport business.
This man was extremely smart and immediately realized that he had been replaced, which probably offended the King of Qin, so he also came to Guanzhong this time, hoping to switch to Yang Ming.
Yang Ming and Yang Xian are brothers. Personally speaking, it doesn't matter who they turn to, but publicly speaking, Yang Ming has a better chance of becoming the crown prince.
The person responsible for greeting the clan is Xiao Yu, the Minister of Internal Affairs, and Queen Xiao currently makes all arrangements for the clan through Xiao Yu, so Xiao Xuan naturally believes that it would be the Queen's wish to replace him.
There is also Xiao Qin, the sister of Xiao Ju, who is the eldest son of Yang Ming's sixth uncle, Xiao Xun.
These two people are also the only direct relatives of Empress Xiao among the fourteen people.
Among Queen Xiao's brothers, those who are still alive are the eldest Xiao Cong, the fifth Xiao Jing, the seventh Xiao Jue, and the eighth Xiao Yu.
Yes, Xiao Cong, the last emperor of Western Liang Dynasty, is still alive. Historically, he served as the internal history order during the Yang Guang period. He should have died last year, but in this life, he is alive and well.
This is the butterfly effect. Historically, after Xiao Cong entered the Sui Dynasty, he had a very close relationship with He Ruobi. His final death was indirectly implicated by He Ruobi. However, in this life, He Ruobi's death was minimally implicated. No one had anything to do with him. It's okay, only one member of the party, Wang Yue, died, and everyone else is fine.
Because of Yang Ming, Yang Yue sat firmly in the position of Nei Shiling, and there was almost no possibility of him being replaced. Changing Yang Yue would mean moving Yang Ming. Yang Guang had the heart in the front, but not the one in the back. Heart, so Yang Yue is as stable as Mount Tai.
Nowadays, Xiao Cong has no real power, and he has a loose official named Jin Ziguanglu on his head, but he cannot go to court because of illness. This is to express his dissatisfaction to Queen Xiao, thinking that his sister has not been arranged well for him.
But Yang Ming knew very well that the relationship between his mother and her eldest brother was not good. When his mother was young, she was adopted because of the unlucky day of her birth. Her life was very hard. She met several of her brothers more than once. Not much.
In fact, the queen's closest relative is her uncle Zhang Ke. It was Zhang Ke and his wife who single-handedly raised the queen. She is now the prefect of Wei County and has been granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom. Moreover, the queen is trying to find a way to give her a duke.
In the camp, everyone is one of their own, so they all have seats. Lanling's fourteenth hairpin sat on the left and right, accepting Yang Ming's review.
Some of them were simple and excited, thinking that King Qin was going to choose a woman from the Xiao family.
I have to say that the quality of the women in the Xiao family is really high. They are all beauties in various shapes and styles, and each is good at winning.
Since they are all beauties, there is no need to choose. Whoever is older is the one. After all, Yang Xiao is not young, she seems to be in her mid-twenties.
Finally, it was decided that the daughter of the naturalized Hou Xiaoqiu would be nineteen this year.
Of course, Yang Ming didn't say it explicitly, he just asked his fourth uncle Xiao Jing to take this girl to the clan camp tonight to meet Yang Xiu.
As soon as they left the Xiao family's camp, they bumped into Feng Yuzhi, who was panting, and Su Lie, who was staying outside the camp with a guilty look on his face.
"Where are we going next?" Feng Yuzhi said with a smile.
Yang Ming said helplessly: "Where do you want to go?"
"Go to your place," Feng Yuzhi said.
After Yang Ming mounted his horse, he nodded towards the other party: "Let's go."
Feng Yuzhi was really like a dog-skin plaster, clinging to Yang Ming. Wherever he went, people would follow him.
During this period, it was Fang Xuanling who reminded Yang Ming meaningfully: "Your Highness, be careful, her bun has changed. Look at that comb. This is called Xu Marry in Lingnan. As long as Your Highness nods, she is yours." "
"Is there such a thing?" Yang Ming said blankly.
Fang Xuanling lowered her voice and said: "Slang people are open-minded and have no taboo on having sex before marriage. She wants to sleep with His Highness, or in other words, she wants to be slept with by His Highness."
Yang Ming was stunned.
At night, Feng Yuzhi had no intention of leaving, and even shamelessly shared the same table with Yang Ming for dinner.
Also at the same table were Yan Xiaotang and Gao Yue.
"Are you wearing that thing when you eat? It's not troublesome," Feng Yuzhi said, and went to lift Gao Yue's curtain.
Although Gao Yue stopped him in time, the other party still caught a glimpse of Lushan's true face.
"Oh my god, are you a god?" Feng Yuzhi was dumbfounded. She had lived so long, but she didn't know that a woman could still look like this.
Gao Yue said helplessly: "I hope the girl won't talk about it to outsiders."
"Don't worry about this, I'm very strict with my mouth." After saying that, Feng Yuzhi gave Yang Ming a thumbs up and said, "You are amazing. The queen is already the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. I never thought there would be an even more beautiful woman beside you. of."
"Where have you seen my mother?" Yang Ming said while eating.
Feng Yuzhi said: "I met them in Jiangdu when I was a child. I have also met the prince and the king of Qi, but I have never met you."
"Then how come you recognized me at a glance today?" Yang Ming said.
Feng Yuzhi said straightforwardly: "Because you are so famous, I am very interested in you, so I have been sending people to keep an eye on the activities in your camp. I already knew about it as soon as you left the camp."
"Girl, don't you think that you have committed a big taboo by doing this?" Yan Xiaotang frowned and said: "It is against the rules to monitor the prince's camp. The King of Qin will not care about you, but don't do this again."
"I don't like how you talk as a woman," Feng Yuzhi curled his lips.
Yan Xiaotang smiled and said, "I don't care if the girl likes it or not."
Feng Yuzhi was shouted at and suddenly became energetic. He held up his chin and looked directly at Yan Xiaotang and said:
"May I ask the princess, concubine, concubine, or concubine of Prince Qin's palace, who are you?"
Yan Xiaotang was at a loss for words. Is the other party using her identity as an excuse?
"So it's not the case? Is that the concubine?" Feng Yuzhi said angrily: "Then I'm surprised. According to the customs of the Central Plains, a concubine cannot eat at the same table as the master of the house, right?"
Yan Xiaotang immediately became angry. How we eat is none of your business?
"The food is cold, girl, you better take care of yourself."
After saying that, Yan Xiaotang gave up the line and picked up the tachyons to pick up the food. Suddenly, a pair of tachyons appeared out of nowhere and blocked her tachyons.
"You just said that I violated the rules, do you think you violated the rules? When the master of the house eats, the concubines should wait on the side. It's better for you to eat more than him," Feng Yuzhi mocked.
Yan Xiaotang was immediately embarrassed. He put down Kuai Zi angrily, sat down behind Yang Ming, and simply stopped eating.
When Gao Yue saw this, she was too embarrassed to eat anymore because she was not even a concubine.
Feng Yuzhi continued to say, "Don't think that I can let you go by hiding behind his back. How dare you provoke me, a sharp-tongued little girl?"
Yang Ming glared at the other person, frowned and said: "Are you here to eat or are you here to cause trouble? If you eat well, just eat well, otherwise leave quickly."
Feng Yuzhi smiled and said, "She was the one who provoked me first."
After saying that, Feng Yuzhi chuckled and smiled at Yan Xiaotang: "You know how good I am, right? I have never suffered a loss when I go out. I will forgive you this time, but don't mess with me next time."
For a whole hour, Yang Ming didn't chase him away. Women in the Central Plains were all shy, and this was the first time Yang Ming had seen such a shameless person.
"If you don't leave, I'll have people carry you away," Yang Ming sat by the stove and breathed.
Feng Yuzhi curled his lips and said, "You asked me to leave, don't regret it?"
Yang Ming couldn't help but laugh: "Why should I regret it? Is there anything in you that I should regret?"
"Maybe there really is?" There were only two people in the tent, Yang Ming and her. Feng Yuzhi moved closer and whispered:
"Don't you want to know why I came to you today? Is it really just interest?"
Yang Ming suddenly frowned, looked at her and said, "How do you say that?"
Feng Yuzhi smiled proudly and calmly said, "I just arrived at the camp last night. I came here just to join in the fun. In fact, I came to Daxing three days ago."
Yang Ming suddenly realized that no wonder he didn't see anyone from Lingnan in the tent on the first day he came to the camp. It turned out that she arrived later.
Feng Yuzhi continued: "The King of Qi wanted me to be his concubine, so I came."
Yang Ming was stunned immediately.
Seeing Yang Ming's surprised look, Feng Yuzhi smiled and said:
"But don't worry, I don't plan to marry him. His reputation in Jiangnan is terrible. Who is a decent girl willing to be his wife? I came to Daxing this time just to see the queen and refuse this marriage."
Second child, second child, can you stretch your arms long enough? Do you dare to take Lingnan’s idea? Yang Ming continued to remain silent and motioned for the other party to continue speaking.
"He wants to borrow food from us, but how can we get food? We don't even have enough to eat," Feng Yuzhi said with a look of disdain: "We Lingnan people only marry based on whether they like it, and never get involved in politics. He wants to marry me, just If he wants to borrow our food, I won’t give him this opportunity.”
Yang Ming asked curiously: "Did he mean it, or did my mother mean it?"
"It was his own intention, but the queen also knew it. The queen wrote to my father and asked me if I was willing." Feng Yuzhi said: "My father thought it would be better to explain this matter in person, so he asked me to coming."
Lingnan Feng An, the vassal king, was the only one who could control the entire Lingnan region. Therefore, Yang Guang and his wife had always been more indulgent towards Feng An, and often gave gifts to others. Feng An was also loyal to the Sui Dynasty.
Feng Ang's status is basically similar to Song Que, the Heavenly Sword in The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty. Feng Yuzhi is Song Yuzhi. What a coincidence, both have the same name.
That's why Queen Xiao would ask Feng Ang for his opinion. If he didn't want to, Queen Xiao would never force it or get angry.
Yang Ming nodded: "So, you have already met my mother?"
"We have met. The queen said you can go see my third son again, so I came to see you," Feng Yuzhi said with a smile, "But it seems that you are not interested in me."
Yang Ming smiled and said: "I'm the same as you, I only care about whether you like it or not, and don't get involved in politics."
"Maybe others don't believe what you say, but I do," Feng Yuzhi nodded and said:
"I've heard about how you made trouble in court to defend the princess. This is what a man should do. I don't speak like you Central Plains people who mince words. Let's be honest. If you let me stay tonight, I will Leave."
Yang Ming smiled bitterly and said: "I hope that the girl will find a husband who is compatible with her in the future."
Feng Yuzhi shrugged and smiled, took off the comb from his head and handed it to Yang Ming:
"This is for you, don't lose it."
