Perhaps because the Sui and Tang dynasties were closely related, there were many special existences in Li Shimin's harem.

Concubine Yang must be considered one. The daughter of Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty, the princess of the fallen country, not only did not be implicated, but instead became the imperial concubine of the new dynasty and also gave birth to two princes.

Another one is Defei Yin, who is also a daughter of a famous family. Her father, Yin Shishi, was a former General of the Sui Cavalry, and had a very high status. However, it is precisely because of this that he has a deep hatred with the Li Tang royal family.

When Li Yuan started an army in Taiyuan, his youngest son Li Zhiyun was arrested by Sui Dynasty officials and escorted to Chang'an, and executed by Yinshishi.

Facing Li Yuan, who raised an army to rebel against the Sui Dynasty, and Yinshishi, who was stationed in Chang'an, the officials of the Sui Dynasty ordered the governor of Jingzhao County to visit the cemetery of Li Yuan's five temples and excavate them.

To put it simply, it was the dig of the Li family’s ancestral tomb.

Digging ancestral graves and killing offspring are the two most unilateral hatreds in feudal society. How can the Li family not hate them?

Under such a situation of national hatred and family hatred, when Li Yuan's army came to Chang'an, the Yinshi Army naturally refused to surrender and refused to defend, which caused Li Yuan to lose his troops and generals.

Therefore, after conquering Chang'an, Yin Shishi Master was naturally beheaded. One son Yin Hongzhi was spared from death because of his young age. The other daughter inexplicably became a concubine in the mansion of King Li Shimin of Qin and gave birth to a son Li You.

After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Shimin ascended the throne and became the emperor. The Yin family mother was honored by her son and became one of the four concubines.

Two years ago, the fifth son of the emperor, Li You, was granted the title of King of Qi and went to Qi to take up a vassal. Concubine Yin De was alone since then. Because of her unique background, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan was particularly disliked at that time, so the palace inevitably became cold to him.

Concubine Yin De became more and more lonely, and seemed alone in this palace. Today, she saw other concubines and princes in the Imperial Garden in a happy mood, but ignored her and felt bored, so she left quietly.

Along the way, Concubine Yin De kept her head down, not knowing what she was thinking, and walked leisurely in the palace.

Before I knew it, I looked up and saw the three words "Changlemen".

Concubine Yin De was shocked. Although this place was not a forbidden place in the palace, most of the palace people kept their distance because they lived here or were under house arrest. A woman, Princess Zheng Guanyin, was living here.

In the past, the prince Li Jiancheng and the male members of the house of King Li Yuanji of Qi were killed, but the female relatives survived.

Princess Yang of Qi is now in the palace and has given birth to a child; Princess Zheng Guanyin is living in Changle Gate for many years.

"Since you're here, why bother to leave?"

Concubine Yin De stopped when she heard someone shouting behind her. She turned around and saw a middle-aged woman standing inside the door. Who was it if it was Zheng Guanyin?

Zheng Guanyin's dress is still dignified, and she vaguely has the temperament of a quasi-queen queen back then. However, after all, she is already old and with mental torture, her temples are already white.

"The Imperial Sister-in-law" Yin Defei bowed slightly. Now Li Jiancheng has been posthumously named King Xi and is still a member of the royal family. Such a title is appropriate.

"This is not a forbidden place. Since you are here, let's talk to me. You and I can be regarded as sympathy." Zheng Guanyin asked softly.

Concubine Yin De wanted to leave, but when she heard the words "Same disease and pity", she raised her feet and realized that she fell down again.

Concubine Wei came to the side of the Imperial Garden and saw her parents' sister-in-law, namely Wei Yue's mother Zhao.

"Meet the Imperial Concubine"

"Your family, you don't have to be polite." Concubine Wei waved her hand politely, and her sister-in-law walked side by side, sat down on the stone bench next to the rockery, and started chatting.

Zhao said politely: "Xie Niangniang."

Concubine Wei asked, "I entered the palace today, but what's wrong?"

It was not a routine day for the palace to worship, nor did he ask for an order long in advance. Zhao came here. He was a little in a hurry, so Concubine Wei naturally had some guesses.

Zhao said embarrassedly: "Yes. I want to ask the Queen for help in something."

"What's the matter?" Concubine Wei received great help from the family, so she has always been polite to the Wei family.

"It's for Wei Yue's marriage"

Wei Yue asked with a smile: "Why are you engaged to Wei Yue? Which woman is it?"

Zhao couldn't help feeling embarrassed and hesitated: "It's Mrs. Du from the Bo family in Huaiyang County."

"Madam Xie Yi, the wife of Huaiyang County," Concubine Wei frowned and said in surprise for a long time: "How did the wife Xie Yi, who is in the limelight recently, say?"

Zhao was a little embarrassed and said leisurely: "It's Xie Yi's widowed sister-in-law."

""

Concubine Wei was speechless for a moment, and after a moment he frowned: "Who is a woman like a child of my Wei family who can't marry her, why should she marry a widow?"

"This empress calms down, but Wei Yue is still obsessed with it."

Zhao said helplessly: "A few years ago, Wei Yue went to Dongshi. When he accidentally saw this Mrs. Du, he fell in love with her and never forgot her. He was beaten to the ground by the King of Wu because he wanted to get close to this woman."

"When will Li Ke happen to you, why didn't you hear anything?" Concubine Wei frowned, and seemed quite unhappy about the beating of his wife and nephew.

Zhao said hurriedly: "It's been a long time since Wei Yue didn't say it, we don't know, but it would be fine if he just fell down."

"Forget it, Wei Yue's behavior is not regular, so it is appropriate to teach her a lesson; Besides, the King of Wu has a noble status, so what can he do as long as he doesn't fight for anything?" It is obvious that as Yan Fei said, Concubine Wei must give Concubine Yang face in this matter.

Zhao nodded and said, "What the Empress said is that Wei Yue said that he fell in love with Mrs. Du at first sight and never forgets her. Although she is a widow, she is young and beautiful, so he doesn't mind."

"Okay" She really couldn't object too much to this topic, because she married Li Shimin as a widow. Before that, she married Li Min, the son of the Minister of Revenue of the Sui Dynasty, and gave birth to a daughter.

She was able to become a concubine as a widow. How could a widow not marry into the Wei family as a wife? It was also considered to be a common sympathy and had similar experiences.

"Wei Yue and his father thought that this Huaiyang County Boss was highly valued by His Majesty and had a great future. If you marry him, it would be beneficial. The Xie family in Chen County is also a famous family, and it is worthy of our Wei family."

After hearing what Zhao said, Concubine Wei knew it and realized that this matter might also be related to the internal status of the Wei family.

Wei Yue was the grandson of Wei Guifei's uncle Wei Yuanzhao. Because Wei Yuanzhao died, there was no outstanding talent among his descendants, and his status within the family was inevitably lower. Therefore, there was a consideration of strengthening strength and status through marriage.

Concubine Wei nodded and said, "I have heard of this Xie Yi. Your Majesty really valued it. Marriage is a good thing, but what does the Xie family mean? Have you ever inquired about it?"

"This Huaiyang County Body can't let his sister-in-law stay widowed all the time. The court encourages the widow to remarry." Zhao said softly: "We plan to try it first. If it doesn't work, then ask the Empress to come forward and make a good thing."

"Well, since Wei Yue likes it, it's good to try it, but" Wei Guifei said leisurely: "I am not the central palace after all, and I arbitrarily point out that there are many inconveniences in the extramarital ministers and relatives. I will ask His Majesty to come forward to give the marriage."

Zhao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Will the emperor agree to this matter, but since Concubine Wei said that, she couldn't say anything else, so she had to nod and agreed.

After chatting for a few more words, Zhao said goodbye and left the palace. Concubine Wei sighed and returned to the bedroom.

No one noticed that behind the rockery next to him, two little heads quietly emerged.

The princesses were playing hide-and-seek, and the two princesses of Hengshan and Jinyang hid here. It was probably because Concubine Wei was here and no one dared to look for it, so they were never discovered.

"Sister Yizi, hide it quickly, be careful that Sister Jinshan will see it." The youngest Princess Hengshan pulled her sleeves, all her thoughts on the game.

The older Princess Jinyang, Yizi, looked serious. Just now, the concubine and the others seemed to talk about Brother Xiaoyao and Sister Du.

What happened to marriage? It seemed like Sister Dongyang was married a few days ago

The five-year-old Princess Jinyang didn't fully understand, so she decided to ask her closest brother Zhinu, who must have understood.

Princess Jinyang even wanted to go to Brother Zhinu's palace. I heard that Brother Xiaoyao would be there, but he would not see him for more than a month. Wei Zi missed him very much.
