Dugu Xinyue was really conflicted in her heart. She did not expect that her husband would really bring the imperial concubine back. When her husband told her about the prophecy of the flying dragon, she didn't quite believe it. How could there be such a strange person in the world who could do it a few years ago?
She predicted that the emperor would flee and mutiny would occur on the way, but it did happen. While she was shocked, she was also troubled by Yang Yuhuan's arrival.
Yang Yuhuan's peerless beauty is sometimes hard for even a woman like herself, let alone a man, to resist. Even her father lamented that the imperial concubine was a peerless beauty who couldn't get what she asked for, and tossed and turned.
Now, the imperial concubine actually entered her mansion, and there was still a hint of imperceptible humility in front of her. Dugu Xinyue keenly caught it, and she couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart.
Of course, only they can taste the subtle relationship between women. In the eyes of others, they embraced each other excitedly like sisters, holding hands and walking into the mansion. What made Dugu Xinyue slightly unhappy was that Yang Yuhuan looked at her husband's
Even though the look in his eyes lasted only a short moment, Dugu Xinyue saw a strong sense of nostalgia and dependence.
However, when Dugu Xinyue saw Yang Yuhuan hugging her daughter, her heartfelt love made the slight unhappiness in her heart quickly disappear.
Children are a button between husband and wife, and they are also the lubricant between two women.
In the inner hall, Yang Yuhuan covered her mouth with her hands, tears falling down, and her voice choked up as she said: "They are all dead, men, women and children have not survived. I asked them not to show off and to keep a low profile, but they didn't believe it.
In the end, they were all hacked to death, and I was the only one left in the entire Yang family."
Dugu Xinyue handed her a handkerchief, took the child over, and comforted her softly: "Being able to escape from the disaster is also a blessing you have cultivated in several lives. You can live here with peace of mind! My husband told me
After that, I promise to accept you, and this will be your home from now on."
Yang Yuhuan knelt down and kowtowed with tears in her eyes. Only she knew the weight of Dugu Xinyue's words.
Dugu Xinyue helped her up, pinched her face gently, and said with a smile: "I didn't dare to touch you before, but now I can pinch your face like a friend and sister. Your skin is so good."
Yang Yuhuan whispered: "The former Yang Yuhuan is dead. From now on, my name is Yang Zhu, which is the name given to me by the general."
"Okay, stop pretending, just call him Aye! I heard you call him that. When one day I am happy, you can also call him husband."
Yang Yuhuan's face turned red and she lowered her head in embarrassment.
Dugu Xinyue's heart was as clear as a mirror, and she was really helpless. Her husband had acquired such a peerless beauty like Yang Yuhuan, so how could she refuse her anymore.
At night, Li Ye worked even harder to serve Dugu Xinyue until she felt comfortable all over. Dugu Xinyue lay in her husband's arms, rolled her eyes at him and said, "My husband is amazing! He actually got the imperial concubine, you really did."
I believed Feilong’s words.”
"Feilong is a strange person who has achieved enlightenment. Unfortunately, he revealed too many secrets and was unable to achieve enlightenment and ascend in the end. This must be his fate too!"
"Do you really want to marry her?"
Li Ye clasped his hands and begged: "I'm not marrying her, I'm taking her as my concubine. I beg you to be tolerant."
Dugu Xinyue sighed, "How dare I be intolerant? Even my father couldn't bear to look at her for several days. No man can resist such a woman. It's destiny for you to get her. But as your wife, I
I must remind you that she is not an ordinary woman. If the news gets out, you will become a thorn in the flesh and a thorn in the eyes of many people, especially the emperor. You have to think about how to deal with it."
Li Ye nodded, "I have already thought about it. I will build a Taoist palace for her and let her be the temple leader first. After a few years, when everyone has forgotten her, I will take her back."
"This is a good idea, okay! I'll give her a cup of tea tomorrow and give her a reassurance, so she can be the master of the temple with peace of mind."
The Tang Dynasty was an inclusive yet hierarchical society. It was very tolerant of the relationship between men and women. Even if the husband and his colleagues went to visit the church, the wife would not take it seriously, thinking it was official culture, and the court would also establish
In the Jiaofang, let the officials and scholars go there to have fun and have fun.
If a powerful person likes a prostitute and wants to take it home for exclusive use, there is no problem. As long as she has no status and is a domestic dancer or entertainer, most wives don't care and are very tolerant.
But it is not okay for a man to directly take a woman as a concubine without the consent of his wife. This violates the rights of the head wife and challenges social rules.
Therefore, the court did not allow renting a house to support a stay-at-home wife. The reason is the same and it violates the rights of the head wife.
Why the head wife is important? Because the marriage of a powerful family is not that simple. It is some kind of alliance between two major families. Behind the head wife stands another family.
Just like the two sides of double-sided embroidery, one side is the cultural tolerance of the Tang Dynasty, the acceptance and absorption of foreign cultures, while the other side is the various harsh social rules and hierarchies.
This is also the fundamental reason why Yang Yuhuan knelt down and kowtowed to Dugu Xinyue. If Dugu Xinyue did not accept her, she would always be a small boat without a harbor, floating on the sea forever, and finally capsize and sink to the bottom of the sea under the raging storm.
.
Of course, all women don’t want their husbands to bring other women into the family. This is natural, but every family is different. Some families have groups of wives and concubines, like Li Linfu’s family, and some families are tightly controlled by their wives.
Like Li Dai's family.
The key depends on the man's character and status in the family. Li Ye is not as cowardly as his father Li Dai. He respects his wife, but he also has his own principles, so he told his wife in advance and brought Yang Yuhuan back.
Dugu Xinyue also gave her husband enough face and expressed that she could accept Yang Yuhuan.
Yang Yuhuan lives in the small courtyard to the east. At present, Li Ye's mansion is a ten-acre house. The back house covers an area of four acres. It consists of a main courtyard covering an area of two acres and two east and west side buildings each covering an area of one mu.
The composition of the hospital.
At dawn, Li Ye hurried to the government office. He had been away from Xiangyang for nearly a month and had accumulated a lot of military and political affairs.
Dugu Xinyue came to the east courtyard. In the east courtyard lived Yang Yuhuan and her two little maids. After all, the little maids were young and adapted quickly. They should have changed their identities. They knew that the imperial concubine had died in the mutiny, and they also knew
They are no longer palace maids.
"See you, madam!" the two little maids saluted obediently.
Dugu Xinyue smiled and nodded, "Is your master here?"
"I'm here, Xinyue, come in!" Yang Yuhuan's voice came from the room.
Dugu Xinyue walked into the room. The room was full of boxes, and Yang Yuhuan was sitting in front of the bed sorting clothes.
"These clothes were all given to me by you. There are too many of them. If I give you half of them, it can be regarded as returning them to their original owners."
"Thank you! I was in a hurry when I left. I didn't take anything with me. I left all my jewelry and clothes behind, except for a gem around my neck."
Yang Yuhuan pulled out a thin gold chain around her neck, and there was a gold-encrusted gemstone hanging underneath. It was the Caliphate gemstone that Li Ye gave her. It was as blue as the ocean.
"There are ten of these gems in total. My husband joked that he was going to give them to his woman, and he was right."
Yang Yuhuan shook his head, "That's not entirely true. My third sister also had one. The third sister died and the gem was missing."
"I heard that my husband said that your third sister was not dead. That night, she was by the emperor's side and luckily escaped with her life."
Yang Yuhuan smiled: "It's her luck that she didn't die."
"How did you sleep last night?"
Dugu Xinyue changed the topic and said: "The conditions here are a little rough. In fact, I just moved here not long ago, only a month ago! I lived outside the city before, and I think it's a bit humid here and not as dry as Chang'an."
Yang Yuhuan said quickly: "Fortunately, I slept well last night. Maybe it's because I was tired all the way here."
"What are your plans for today?"
Yang Yuhuan shook his head blankly, "I have no plan, I still want to go over and talk to you later."
Dugu Xinyue smiled and said: "Then follow my arrangements! We will take a bath later, and then we will take a carriage to go shopping and have a cup of tea. My little lady wants to go to the streets all day long."
Yang Yuhuan nodded happily. Taking a bath, shopping, and drinking tea were the three things she wanted to do most.
