Pei Shuying, who was in Luoyang, took the time to go to Xingyang to see how the construction of her son's palace was going.
Yuan Wendu stayed here for almost a year, just to supervise the project of the County Prince's Mansion. In Henan now, the good materials were basically used up when Luoyang was built.
That's why Yang Ming asked Yuan Wendu to come because he was a local and had the means to get good engineering materials.
His son's palace must be beautifully built. It's not that Yang Ming is extravagant and wasteful, but that he has a lot of worries. If Yang Jin's house is not as good as Yang Rui's, he is worried that the Pei family will be dissatisfied.
Although the second son is not as good as the crown prince, this is obvious, but at present they are both county princes, and according to regulations, the construction of the mansion should be at the same level.
Xingyang Palace is basically completed, so after the New Year, Yuan Wendu can return to the capital. There will be slaves staying in the new palace to be responsible for daily maintenance. It will be early when Yang Jin becomes an adult.
On the way back to Luoyang, Pei Shuying persuaded Dugu Feng'er to go back with her.
But Dugu Feng'er shook his head and said: "The Yang and Pei families are now inseparable, and the things in the palace are enough to give him a headache. Do you hope that the Dugu family will also get involved?"
Pei Shuying smiled and said: "Don't talk nonsense, our two families are doing well."
"Ayun, there's no need to trick me. Although I'm in Luoyang, I may not know less than you," Dugu Feng'er said with a smile, "Don't forget, Luoyang is now the capital of the East, and the six ministries and eleven temples all have people stationed in the capital.
Officials, I can find out what they are talking about in private."
Pei Shuying smiled and said nothing.
Dugu Feng'er continued: "Perhaps Yang Yinjiang, you and me, don't have any complicated thoughts, but the family behind the three of us will not let go easily, because they bear the heavy responsibility of a family, and everything is at stake.
The rise and fall of the family cannot be decided by their words."
"To be honest with Feng'er, I am also troubled by this matter," Pei Shuying sighed: "I actually have no idea of competing for the throne. From the day I married Yang Ming, I have thought about everything, raising my husband and raising my children.
Growing old with you is already a blessing in the world, but slowly, I found that my thoughts were still too simple."
"Yes, you are thinking simply," Dugu Feng'er said: "Because you are Pei Ju's daughter, and you have the support of a wealthy family like the Hedong Pei family. Even if Pei Ju does not have this idea, will the Pei family agree? The head of the family.
This position is not easy to sit in. All aspects must be taken into consideration, and the people in the clan will respect your leadership."
Pei Shuying was shocked and said: "You are really different from before."
"Because I remembered a lot of things," Dugu Feng'er said, "Don't forget, I stayed with the Holy Queen for three years, and her careful teachings have never been forgotten since I remembered them.
"
Dugu Jialuo also worked very hard back then, and the men in the clan were less effective than the others. She had foreseen that once she passed away, the family would inevitably decline, so the Dugu family must marry the Yang family early to delay the decline.
Unfortunately, fate is not as good as fate, something happened to Dugu Feng'er, and the best opportunity for the Dugu family to revive was stolen by Hongnong Yang.
Is Dugu Zuan willing to do so? He is not willing to do so, especially after his daughter recovers better and better, the Dugu family has already planned the end.
After all, Dugu Feng'er is Yang Ming's wife appointed by the Second Saint. She had to cancel the engagement because of an accident. But now, Dugu Feng'er is becoming more and more normal, while Emperor Yang Guang doesn't take the Dugu family seriously, so for the sake of the future
, even the Dugu family had to fight.
Although the Dugu family's territory is in Luoyang, they are a serious Guanlong aristocratic group.
Pei Shuying was also extremely smart, and she immediately guessed why Dugu Feng'er refused to return to Beijing.
She was thinking about Yang Ming and didn't want to drag the Dugu family in again because of herself. In that case, Yang Ming would have even more headaches.
Pei Shuying would not persuade her anymore, so she said: "Then do you recall how you got sick?"
Dugu Feng'er frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and then shook her head.
"Remember to write to Yang Ming often. He cares about you very much," Pei Shuying said.
Dugu Feng'er forced a smile and nodded.
In Ziwei Palace, Zhang Heng, the official of Yushitai, presented a report from the capital to Yang Guang.
All secret reports from the Yushitai were sent directly to the emperor across three provinces and six ministries.
This department has the power to intervene in criminal law, but its most important task is to report rumors. It is basically the East-West Factory of the Sui Dynasty, but it does not have as much power as the East-West Factory. This is also determined by the current social class structure.
This was the time when aristocratic families were at their peak, and the noble families were at their peak. To put it bluntly, the emperor and the noble families shared the world, so a Yushitai composed of noble families from poor families had very limited damage to ministers.
Yang Ming once believed that the emperor in this period was the chairman of a group. If you couldn't lead everyone to make money, the board of directors would discuss removing you.
And Yang Jian is undoubtedly a very awesome emperor. Before usurping the throne, I talked with you about money. I had food to eat, and you can drink soup. After usurping the throne, we will not talk about money, but about ideals. We will work together to make the world a better place.
The Sui Dynasty built a prosperous and powerful empire.
As for Yang Guang, he was even more ruthless. It was all my money. Whoever dared to kill me for thinking about me would end up being killed instead.
After reading the report, Yang Guang showed no expression on his face. He waved his hand for Zhang Heng to leave, and then threw the report aside.
He really didn't care. It was completely reasonable for him to want to kill Wei Zheng. As long as things were reasonable, there would be no problem.
The most fearful thing in this world is the unreasonable things.
Anyway, regardless of whether there is this Wei Zheng or not, Yang Guang plans to determine the candidate for the crown prince after returning to Beijing this time.
At this time, Kongtong's wife Wu Jiangxian came in. After she took off her cloak, she was wearing several layers of tulle long skirt, and her beautiful crotch was looming.
The most amazing thing is that her skirt is crotchless at the back for Yang Guang's convenience.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The two of them were acting out a sexy scene in the room. Even if Queen Xiao came in, Yang Guang had no intention of stopping.
Empress Xiao was also used to it. Her husband didn't do this after he succeeded to the throne. He had already done this when he was still the King of Jin.
"I heard that Concubine De is pregnant, how will you handle the matter?" Queen Xiao sat down on the side and asked calmly.
Concubine De is Wang, Li Yuan's niece.
Of course, Yang Guang would not interrupt the game just because of his wife's words. Instead, after finishing playing poker, he sat down with a heavy breath and said with a smile:
"This is a good thing? Don't you think?"
Queen Xiao suddenly frowned: "You have two sons."
"Wrong, there are three," Yang Guang raised his finger and said with a smile, "Yang Gao is the daughter of your concubine, so naturally he can be considered my son."
Empress Xiao nodded and said: "Okay, let's count three, then if Concubine De gives you a son, will you treat Yang Qing like Yang He, or will you treat Xi'er like Ming'er?"
Yang Guang pulled Wu Jiangxian beside him, kneaded him as much as he could, and said with a smile:
"I don't want to answer your question. Remember, don't talk to me like this in the future. Take care of your harem. Other matters are not yours to interfere with. Don't think that you can interfere in the government affairs like my mother-in-law.
You don’t have the ability to care about grandpa’s personal affairs.”
Queen Xiao's face was gloomy and she said coldly: "I am the master of the harem and the biological mother of King Qin and King Qi."
"Don't make trouble against the two of them," Yang Guang slapped Wu Jiangxian in the face. The latter immediately covered his face and fell back, trembling.
Yang Guang stood up violently and reprimanded: "Don't think that because you gave birth to three sons for me, I can't do anything to you."
Empress Xiao also stood up and said angrily: "Before you succeeded to the throne, you promised me that you would not have children with other women. It was you who failed to trust me."
Yang Guang kicked Wu Jiangxian and said angrily: "Okay, you are getting more and more presumptuous and dare to be my master? Get out, I don't want to see you."
Empress Xiao immediately looked aggrieved, burst into tears, covered her face and left.
Yang Guang was still angry and kicked Wu Jiangxian on the ground one after another, until the opponent couldn't help but cry and beg for mercy.
"You want to be a shrew, but you're far from it." Yang Guang sat down angrily, called his chamberlain Gao Ye, and frowned: "Ms. Wang is pregnant?"
Gao Ye was stunned and said: "I haven't heard of it. I'll ask you."
"Wait a minute," Yang Guang raised his hand and said, "If it's not there, forget it. If there is, deal with it."
Gao Ye nodded: "I understand."
Even if Yang Guang doesn't care about Empress Xiao, he can't ignore his two wild sons.
And he really doesn't want to have any more sons. Two sons in total are enough to give him a headache. If there are a few more, the family will be in trouble.
He knows best what kind of character his wife is, but she looks so weak and wants to imitate my mother? Do you have this ability?
If the queen mother encounters a situation like yours, she will not discuss it with the father at all and will directly kill the eldest and the youngest.
After Empress Xiao left in tears, she immediately sent someone to summon her son Yang Xian who was in Luoyang.
Yang Jian saw no chance of repairing his relationship with his mother and rushed to the palace immediately after receiving the news.
"Bitch! You rebelled against her," Yang Jian said, patting his chest: "Don't worry, mother, my son will never let the evil seed in her belly be born."
Empress Xiao cried: "Don't mess around. After all, they are your father's flesh and blood. Don't target Concubine De and the child. Kill her father. This is a warning to her."
"I listen to my mother-in-law," Yang Jian said angrily: "This bitch, with so many concubines in the harem, she is the only one who is brave, right? My third son can tolerate this kind of thing, but my son cannot. I just need to be gentle, my mother-in-law. This year
Wang Yu shouldn’t even think about the Lantern Festival.”
Wang Yu, the father of Concubine De and the Wang family, first served as a bodyguard for Yang Jian, and later he was sent to other places to serve as the magistrate of Shiping County. After Concubine De was favored, he had now entered Jiangzuo Temple in Luoyang.
This person is Li Yuan's brother-in-law, his biological brother-in-law.
