Chapter 144 Letter

?Chang'an, Prime Minister's Mansion, and the pavilion in the garden, Yang Jian, the prime minister, stood still in casual clothes. His wife Dugu Jialuo was comparing with him with different colors of fabrics. Yang Jian, who was holding the great authority of the court outside, is now at the mercy of his wife.

Dugu Jialuo put a red cloth on his husband and took a few steps back, looked at it for a while and said, "Raise your hand..." Yang Jian spread his arms honestly and then walked around in the spot under the red cloth at the request of his wife.

"No, no..." Dugu Jialuo murmured to himself, then stepped forward and pulled off the red cloth and picked it up in the hand of the maid on the side. After a while, she took out a piece of yellow cloth and put it on her husband.

"Let's go around and take a look."

Yang Jian sighed in his heart and spread his arms helplessly. He rolled his arms around the place. It had been half an hour since he was struggling, but his wife was still not satisfied. After trying these colors, she didn't know when it would be.

"Well, it's this color!" Dugu Jialuo nodded with satisfaction and said. Yang Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this. Dugu Jialuo pulled the yellow cloth off him and took it in his hand and watched it repeatedly.

She was helping her husband choose colors, which is the color that was advocated after the establishment of the new dynasty. The clothes worn by the black king of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the military uniforms of soldiers were black and they would not be used at that time. Dugu Jialuo did not care about the five virtues of the people, whether it looked good or not, she only recognized one thing: the color of the husband should be suitable for her.

So the yellow cloth in his hand matched his husband's skin color, so Dugu Jialuo chose it. Yang Jian nodded immediately because of his wife's decision, saying that he was afraid of saying the wrong thing and was given a test for half an hour.

Adding Jiuxi to the King of Sui, Yang Jian knew that he would not need to deceive himself now. The next change of dynasty is something that everyone knows, so the related matters are in full swing. It is impossible to retreat after this step.

To further rule the world, take a step back, he and his family already have only one choice, so they must move forward no matter what.

"Na Luoyan, be calm and don't panic at that time, so as not to say that you are not like a monarch." Dugu Jialuo said. Yang Jian, whose name is Na Luoyan, nodded. While the couple was talking, their daughter-in-law Yuan came to the garden to greet him.

Seeing his daughter-in-law giving a greeting, Yang Jian signaled that the other party would not be restrained: "I met your father yesterday, and he was in good spirits and didn't need to worry about it." However, Dugu Jialuo's focus was not here because she found that there was one missing person and then frowned and asked:

"Er Niang, where are you cutting the ground?"

The turtle is the name of Yang Jian and Yang Yong, the eldest son of Dugu Jialuo. Yang Yong is the husband of Yuan. When Yuan heard his mother-in-law ask about her husband's eyes, she looked depressed and then said that there is something else to do to come over to greet him later.

'Is there something wrong? Could this kid go somewhere to fool with his new favorite?' Yang Jian murmured in his heart but his face was calm. The eldest son Yang Yong had just married his wife for more than a year and it was difficult for his wife to be young. Of course, as a man, this is nothing at all.

Yang Jian doesn't care about his eldest son's childhood, but Dugu Jialuo has it. She saw the lonely expression of his daughter-in-law and felt in her heart. If her husband was childhood, she would be better than death.

"Didn't the slaughter go out to play with that fox... that man?" Dugu Jialuo asked with a frown. Seeing Yuan's hesitant explanation, she sighed and did not make any more embarrassed. This daughter-in-law looked good and well-educated, and was born in the Wei royal family and her eldest son Yang Yong were a perfect match, but her son just didn't cherish it!

Seeing that the wife began to enter a strange state, Yang Jian felt something was wrong and quickly signaled his daughter-in-law to leave. He was about to find an excuse to leave to avoid being blamed again and said, "The son is not the fault of the godfather." Suddenly, the housekeeper came to report that the Duke of Pei, Zheng Yi, came to visit the door with Li.

When Yang Jian heard this, he was amnesty and quickly said that he wanted to see what Duke Pei had to do. Then he handed the gift to his wife for handling. Dugu Jialuo's eyes lit up when he heard that Duke Pei brought the gift to the door: Could it be that there was news there?

The servants carried the gifts in one by one. Dugu Jialuo found a letter in it as he wished and put it away without any trace. She asked the butler to send someone to count the gifts to the warehouse and then hurriedly left.

When she came to a place where no one was around, she carefully took out the letter and opened it. Then the beautiful handwriting was displayed in front of her. She was very familiar with the handwriting: it was the handwriting of her eldest daughter Yang Lihua, which she taught her daughter to practice since she was a child.

Seeing his daughter's handwritten calligraphy, Dugu Jialuo felt warm and burst into tears. Since her daughter suddenly disappeared in October last year, it has been a year and a half months since now. As a mother, she missed her miserable daughter all the time.

I thought I would never meet my daughter again in this life, but I didn’t expect that in September, the Duke of Pei Guo, Zheng Yi, brought good news: Yang Lihua was in Anlu. A nursery rhyme testified that she was sure that her daughter was still in the world. Then she wrote a letter and sent it to Anlu through Zheng Yi’s channel to Anlu to contact her daughter.

The court and Anzhou were fighting, and they didn't know whether the messenger could arrive in Anlu safely, they didn't know if their daughter could receive the letter under heavy surveillance, they didn't know if their daughter could hand the letter to the messenger, and they didn't know if the messenger could bring the letter back to Chang'an safely.

Now everything has an answer. Dugu Jialuo couldn't wait to read the letter. In the letter, his daughter Yang Lihua said that she and her daughter Yuwen Eying were in good condition. She is now the concubine of Yuwen Wen, the Duke of Xiyang County, and she lives a good life. Yuwen Wen has gone to Bazhou on the Yangtze River under the rule of the Huangzhou General Administration to serve as the governor of Bazhou on the Yangtze River. She also settled in Xiyang, the prefecture.

There are a few words with completely different characters in the letter. Although there are only four characters, Dugu Jialuo recognized the tender words: they were the characters of his granddaughter Yuwen Eying. When he visited the palace, his granddaughter was excited to write to her.

The four words "My grandfather An Kang" moved Dugu Jialuo very much. He saw the handwriting of his daughter and granddaughter with his own eyes, and was filled with joy. After reading it over and over again, he came back to his senses and began to interpret the secret words hidden between the handwriting. It was the agreement between her and her daughter that was unknown to outsiders.

The number of words in secret is limited. The general meaning of the text is that if the imperial army in Lin'an Lu Yuwen Wen would flee to Jiangnan with his family.

"Escape, even if you escape to the ends of the world, you will return Lihua and Eying!" Dugu Jialuo said in anger. Yuwen Wen's father Yuwen Liang occupied the land of Jingxiang but was still north of the Yangtze River. She was worried that if Yuwen Wen's "this guy" brought his daughter to the Chen State in Jiangnan, the year of the Monkey and Horse Month to save her.

Dugu Jialuo was full of confidence in the imperial army defeating Yuwen Liang and even Yuchi Jiong, but the follow-up question arose. As the saying goes, "This guy" who leaves his hometown and is humble. If he flees to Chen State, he will definitely be humble. Her daughter Yang Lihua is now a low-ranking concubine and looks outstanding. What should she do if she takes the lead in Chen State?

By then, his daughter will become a toy given to each other by powerful ministers from Chen Guo, and his granddaughter will probably not be much better. How can this continue?

"No, no, I have to find a way, I must find a way!"
