Women like to compare by nature. After meeting Chen Shuyi, Pei Shuying's first thought was to compare.
From the head to the feet, then from the feet to the head.
Where he is worse than her and where he is inferior to her, he can come to the conclusion almost instantly.
It seems that no matter where I am, I am just a little bit behind.
Okay, let's compare it to your family background. You are the princess of the subjugated country. Because Chen Shubao still has the title of Duke of Changcheng County, you are not considered a commoner, but you are definitely not as good as yourself.
Pei Shuying finally regained her composure, and her tense face relaxed, but she still couldn't help but glare at Chen Shuyi's chest.
Yang Ming saw Chen Shuyi's radiant and pretty look, which was more relaxed and joyful than when she was in the palace, and thought that free-range birds were better than domestic birds after all.
As everyone knows, Chen Shuyi is treated like a servant in the palace. All she does is chores every day. She cannot serve food on the table. She has to ask for permission when going out. She has to bow to everyone she sees. How can she be free?
But these days when getting along with Gao Yue, there are naturally not so many restrictions. The two of them love music and are like close friends, so they are naturally much more comfortable than those in the palace.
Yang Ming couldn't help but reflect in his heart, did he restrain her too much?
Chen Shuyi will definitely be his woman in the future. She has not escaped, and she has even thought about her fame and position.
She is a very strange person, giving people a huge sense of contrast. She looks quiet and speaks elegantly, but she is very easy to get angry. People who don't understand her can easily die in confusion.
Dugu Jialuo let go of Yang Ming and said, "Since everyone is here, I happen to be in low spirits these days and often have trouble falling asleep at night. Tomorrow you will go to Furong Garden with me to get some fresh air."
I really didn’t want to go, but I didn’t have the courage of Yang Lihua. Yang Ming nodded sincerely and said: “My grandson should accompany his grandmother.”
Dugu Jialuo smiled and said: "What's wrong with this? But since you have never traveled far, my grandmother is worried. How about sending you a team of guards?"
As soon as these words came out, Princess Lanling Yang Awu immediately laughed and said: "Ming'er was raised by my mother, not you, so why do you call us white-eyed wolves? What help did you give him? Tell me.
listen?"
And Li Mi was Li Bi's great-grandson, and he attacked the Duke of Pushan when he was very young.
"What? You're not even allowed to eat?"
Yang Ming said speechlessly: "Okay, I didn't make it clear. In the future, when you contact her, try to find out something about herself. Of course, don't show off the facts and let her notice the clues."
Yang Jian couldn't help but laugh and said: "What? If Qilin'er goes, you can go, but if he doesn't go, you can't go?"
Yang Lihua snorted, ignored her, and changed the topic:
"Your grandmother is still at the court meeting. I heard that someone has already prepared lunch for the ministers attending the court meeting. It looks like it will be a long time. If you can't wait, you can go back first and come back tomorrow."
What kind of temper does Yang Lihua have? She immediately became angry when she heard this:
Precisely because I suffered a loss and experienced firsthand how difficult it is to raise children, I didn’t bother to put in so much effort from the second child on. By the time I had four, five, six, or seven children, I almost gave up.
Yang Lihua shrugged: "What does it have to do with Ming'er? I didn't want to go just now, but now I want to go, that's it."
This made Pei Shuying quite dissatisfied. As soon as that woman came in, you wanted to leave? Is her charm so great?
Once a woman's self-esteem is hurt, she will hold a grudge. Being ignored by Yang Ming made Pei Shuying a little embarrassed. When she saw her brother next to her looking distracted, she couldn't help but cursed:
"Have you never seen a woman?"
Yang Ming hurriedly said: "It's time to wait, then my nephew will have dinner here at noon."
The third eldest princess of Guangping, Yang Wenjin, married Yuwen Jingli, who is currently the governor of Xiongzhou.
Dugu Jialuo glanced at her angrily, turned to Yang Ming and said, "Will Qilin'er go?"
Yang Jian absolutely dotes on his eldest daughter, who is his and Dugu Jialuo's first child. Most couples are the most attentive and emotionally devoted when raising their first child.
When Chen Shuyi saw this, she looked puzzled and said, "Didn't you tell me to do that? Did you ask me to get as close to her as possible and become friends? I did it?"
In the carriage, Yang Ming cupped his cheek and smiled bitterly, "I was wrong, I shouldn't have expected anything from you."
Princess Yang Wenjin of Guangping said quickly: "I should take some time to relax with my mother."
These four people didn't dare to act recklessly in front of Yang Lihua. Apart from being afraid of Dugu Jialuo, the only other thing they were afraid of was Yang Lihua.
With outsiders present, it was not convenient for Yang Ming to ask about the situation, so he made an excuse and left directly with Chen Shuyi.
"That's right, the sisters are finally reunited today. Let's go after dinner, right? Grandpa?" Yang Awu is the best at being coquettish. As soon as he saw his father, he stepped forward and took Yang Jian's arm.
"An" Yang Lihua curled her lips and said with a smile: "You are really a white-eyed wolf. I have never looked for me since I helped you. In this case, if something happens in the future, you must never think of me."
That's all, I won't argue with her, Yang Ming said: "You can go again in a few days."
One pinched his cheek, the other touched his butt, completely treating Yang Ming as a twelve-year-old child. Only Yang Lihua just curled her fingers towards Yang Ming, meaning come here.
Among them, the fourth daughter, Princess Lechang, Yang Wenxuan, was the least popular with Yang Jian and his wife. Yang Ming did not know the specific reason why. Anyway, Dugu Jialuo particularly hated his fourth daughter.
"It's already dark, why don't you go back?"
Bangchui! What a stick!
Alas. It’s so helpless because he was still a child.
The fourth princess of Lechang, Yang Wenxuan, married the Cui family of Qinghe, but her husband died and she is now a widow.
And what Yang Ming left to Chen Shuyi was the position of concubine. As for the concubine, ahem, of course it is best to be Yang Yinjiang.
The next day, Yang Ming entered the palace.
During the meal, Yang Ming secretly tugged at the corner of Dugu Jialuo's clothes and whispered:
"Grandma, can I leave Beijing for a while? My grandson wants to go to Hedong to see how the palace is being repaired."
After all, Yang Lihua's status was too special. To put it bluntly, during the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Dugu Jialuo was more powerful than her daughter.
When he arrived at Yang Awu, he was completely raised by a few wet nurses, and he never drank a sip of Dugu Jialuo's breast milk.
He had to go to Yong'an Palace to pay his respects. He was going to go there a few days ago, but someone from the palace came to say hello and said that the Queen was very tired during this period and would rest very early, so Yang Ming was asked to go later.
After seeing Yang Ming, Dugu Jialuo's face softened a little, he held Yang Ming in his arms and said to his daughters:
The second eldest daughter, Princess Yang Tingzhen of Xiang Kingdom, and her husband Li Changya, were promoted to the rank of Minister of Internal History. The boss of the Province of Internal History was Pei Ju. There were two ministers below, one was Xue Daoheng and the other was Li Changya.
Lao Wu Yang A Wu, this is his real name. Because he is ranked fifth, he is called Yang A Wu.
You can have any number of concubines, there is no status, and they are basically the same as sleeping with you.
Expectations brought disappointment. Yang Ming never expected that Chen Shuyi didn't even find out why Gao Yue came to Daxing.
What is this called? This is called asking you to hold the bowl and chopsticks. You only hold the bowl and chopsticks without knowing that you want to eat.
As Yang Ming's status as a prince, he can have a principal concubine of the third rank, a concubine of the third rank, a concubine of the fourth rank, ten concubines of the sixth rank,
A concubine refers to a dowry girl. If he marries Dugu Feng'er in the future, the Dugu family can marry up to ten concubines, of course, usually only one or two.
The remaining four were not good enough. When I met Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo, each one was more honest than the other.
Only then did Yang Ming escape from the clutches of his four aunts and came to Yang Lihua:
"Auntie is well."
This was the case in ancient times. If a son came home, he wished he could stay a few more days. When his daughter came back, she would think of how to send her away.
Then, Yang Ming was dragged to play with by the four aunts.
By the way, Dugu Jialuo's maternal grandmother was born in the Cui family of Qinghe. Therefore, the entire gentry group in the Sui Dynasty was involved with each other. Even if it doesn't matter now, it doesn't matter. If you go up two or three generations, you can always find some relationship.
.
Yang Lihua frowned and said, "I won't go."
"You should have told me earlier." Chen Shuyi rolled her eyes and said, "You didn't explain it clearly yourself, but you still have the nerve to blame me. I'm really wronged."
At first, she married Wang Fengxiao, the son of Wang Yi, Duke of Ying, but Wang Fengxiao died too early and later remarried Liu Shu.
When they arrived at Yong'an Palace, they found that Dugu Jialuo was not there, but his five aunts were all there. It was better now, and they all started to make fun of Yang Ming.
Dugu Jialuo smiled and nodded.
"No, no, no," Yang Ming quickly waved his hand: "Guo Yilang is very capable of killing Pang Ben. Grandma can just give him to me."
A group of women gathered together, and they were all sisters. Naturally, they were very noisy. Yang Ming was really speechless, especially what he heard in his ears were all petty and trivial things.
Because of Dugu Jialuo, among all the current princes, there are basically only concubines and concubines, plus concubines without any titles. In this way, it is equivalent to having only one daughter-in-law.
Li Changya was the grandson of Li Bi, one of the Eight Pillar States of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the clan uncle of Li Mi.
Pei Xuanji was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips and moved the futon under his buttocks, far away from his sister.
Of the five daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Yang Jian, it goes without saying that Yang Lihua has a high status and often does not look down upon her parents.
Yang Jian smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's eat."
During this period, Gao Yue was completely asking Chen Shuyi for advice on Wu's vocal skills. The two of them ate and lived together, and apart from discussing music, they did not mention anything.
Waiting until evening, Dugu Jialuo finally came back, along with a slightly tired Yang Jian.
"Then I'll go too," Yang Lihua said again.
"Okay," Dugu Jialuo agreed happily.
The main reason why Yang Ming planned to go to Hedong was to visit Li Jing and his wife. They were getting married soon. He would definitely not go to Longxi County to attend his wedding. It was in Tianshui, Gansu Province, which was far away.
So he thought of congratulating him in advance, preparing some gifts and so on, and taking a look at what his palace looked like.
Just give it a few days. Once everything is ready, we can set off.
