Chapter five hundred and second concealment

The mother and daughter of the eldest princess Tong'an reunite, and finally convinced Princess Guanghua to go back together. It was a happy ending. At that moment, Princess Pingyang immediately helped Princess Guanghua to pack up her things, but there was nothing to clean up, because Princess Guanghua lives here very poorly, and there was nothing else in the room except bedding and a few pieces of clothing.

However, Princess Guanghua carefully packed up her things, took them away if they could take them away, and gave them to the two senior sisters if they could not take them away. Princess Tong'an was also very generous. Not only did she give some money to the two female Taoist priests, but she also promised to re-cultivate the Taoist temple, which also made the two female Taoist priests very happy. After all, the conditions on the mountain are indeed a bit difficult. If she could re-cultivate the Taoist priests, the road to the mountain would definitely be repaired, so that it would be more convenient for them to go up and down the mountain in the future.

At that moment, Princess Guanghua and Princess Tong'an got on the carriage together, and Princess Pingyang also entered the carriage to talk to them and their mother and daughter. Li Xiu was embarrassed to squeeze in and could only ride a horse by the carriage. Through the window, he could hear the conversations of the three people inside.

"Hui Ning, how did you escape from the Jiangdu chaos?" Princess Tong'an asked in a concerned voice. In the Jiangdu chaos, Yang Guang also died at the hands of the rebels, and after his death, he did not even have a coffin. Queen Xiao made a small coffin with a bed board and then buried it in a hurry. What's worse is that Queen Xiao and others later went to the Turks, so now no one knows where Yang Guang's body was buried in Jiangdu?

When my mother mentioned the Jiangdu Rebellion, Princess Guanghua in the carriage couldn't help but sigh lightly. After a moment, she whispered: "When the Jiangdu coup, the entire Jiangdu Palace was in chaos. I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect to meet a team of guards loyal to His Majesty. They protected me and broke out from Jiangdu, and then escaped. However, the rebels did not give up their pursuit of us. Later, during an escape, I was separated from those people."

When he said this, Princess Guanghua paused for a moment, then said: "Later, I was helpless and afraid of encountering chaos, so I turned into a beggar and begged all the way. Because I had no food, I finally fainted from hunger in the barren mountains. Fortunately, I was rescued by my master who was traveling out and accepted me as a disciple. Finally, I followed my master back to Yishui Temple in Luoyang, and lived until now!"

Halfway through Princess Guanghua's words, Princess Tong'an's crying sounded in the carriage. After all, mother and daughter were connected to each other. When she heard that her daughter had escaped from the chaos army and became a beggar, she was hungry and fainted in the barren mountains. If it weren't for her master's rescue, she would have been buried in the barren mountains.

However, Li Xiu, who was outside the carriage, became more suspicious when he heard this. Although he had not experienced the Jiangdu Rebellion, he also knew that the exact name of the Jiangdu Rebellion should be called the Jiangdu Mutiny. The main reason was that Yang Guang brought most of the troops were from Guanzhong, and Yang Guang stayed in Jiang and refused to return to Chang'an. These people were homesick and in chaos in the world, this led to the middle and lower-level generals rebelling. It can be said that the rebellion went very smoothly because there were not many troops willing to follow Yang Guang to resist.

Since the Jiangdu mutiny was so smooth, it is said that the rebels controlled the situation in Jiangdu in just one night. As one of Yang Guang's concubines, Princess Guanghua must have difficulty getting to outsiders. In such a chaotic situation, how could she easily believe in a team of guards and escape by them?

Not to mention anything else, Yang Guang must have other more important people around him, such as his son, grandson, and even the Queen Xiao, whose identity is mainly more important than Guanghua County. No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be the turn of Princess Guanghua, a small concubine.

Li Xiu was suspicious and began to listen carefully to the conversation in the carriage with his ears. However, Princess Tong'an might be afraid of reminding her daughter of the unpleasant memories of the past, so she did not ask about the original story. After all, for her mother, what is important is that her daughter finally escaped and is still alive, which is enough. As for the rest, it is not important at all!

By the time the carriage returned to Luoyang, it was almost two days ago and the city gate had already been closed. However, as Li Xiu and the others, they naturally called to open the city gate very easily and then returned to the palace. However, Princess Tong'an was not sleepy at all, but held her daughter's hand and kept talking. Princess Pingyang asked someone to prepare a dinner party. Then she and Li Xiu accompanied them to eat and chat while chatting, but at this time they were still talking about some family affairs and gossip.

It was also at the dinner that Princess Guanghua learned that Princess Pingyang already had a son, which made her very happy. She wanted to see her nephew, but she didn't expect that Jin'er had already gone to bed, which made her a little regretful. She could only talk to Princess Pingyang about some interesting things before. It was not until the third day that the dinner ended.

Li Xiuben had already ordered someone to arrange a residence for Princess Guanghua, but Princess Tong'an held her daughter and refused to let go. It seemed that the mother and daughter would definitely have a good chat tonight, so Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang took the excuse to say goodbye after the dinner, leaving room for their mother and daughter to spend alone.

"Husband..."

"Xiu Ning..."

As soon as they left, Princess Pingyang and Li Xiu spoke almost at the same time. Then they looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts. They couldn't help laughing. After a moment, Li Xiu spoke again: "It seems that Xiuning, you have also discovered it. Our cousin didn't seem to tell the truth!"

"Yes, in the carriage, I suspected that my cousin was hiding something, and even doubted whether she was pretending to be someone else. But just now, I talked with my cousin about some interesting things from childhood, and only we knew about these things, so she must be my cousin. But based on my understanding of my cousin, she shouldn't have concealed anything from us in such things?" Princess Pingyang also whispered in confusion at this time.

Although Princess Pingyang and Princess Guanghua are cousins, they grew up together and their relationship is similar to that of their own sisters. They talked about almost everything. She even didn't want to talk to Princess Tong'an, but she was willing to tell her cousin. But today she obviously felt that her cousin deliberately concealed something from her, especially when she entered the palace just now, she specially talked to Princess Guanghua alone, but the other party did not open her heart to her.

"The identity of Princess Guanghua is indeed a bit special, and your sisters have not seen each other for so many years, so it is understandable to hide some things from you. In addition, I would like to ask, Princess Guanghua had children at the beginning?" Li Xiu suddenly spoke at this time.

Just now, Li Xiu had been thinking about Princess Guanghua's escape from the Jiangdu Rebellion. With her identity, it should not be enough to protect the guards around Yang Guang, unless there is a more important person around her, such as Yang Guang's son, so he wanted to ask Princess Guanghua has a son?

"No!" What disappointed Li Xiu was that Princess Pingyang shook her head when she heard this, but then said, "My cousin has not been in the palace for a long time, and she is not favored, so she did not give birth to a son for Yang Guang, but she has a daughter!"

"Daughter?" Li Xiu couldn't help but look at Princess Pingyang in surprise when he heard this, and then asked in confusion, "Since Princess Guanghua has a daughter, why haven't you heard about it with the eldest princess just now?"

"Why are you confused? In the Jiangdu Rebellion, almost all Yang Guang's descendants suffered misfortune. It was rare for my cousin to escape. Moreover, she had never mentioned her daughter, so I don't have to guess that my aunt and I knew that this daughter had already suffered misfortune among the enemy. Therefore, we didn't mention it very well, so we didn't mention it so that our cousin would be sad!"

Li Xiu was stunned when he heard Princess Pingyang's answer, and then he couldn't help but admire the woman's carefulness. Indeed, if Princess Guanghua's daughter was still alive, she would definitely be with her. However, since she saw the other party, Princess Guanghua never mentioned her daughter at all, which shows that the other party is probably no longer in the world.

However, when thinking about the above, Li Xiu suddenly fell into trouble again. Princess Guanghua had only a daughter, that is, the princess of the former Sui Dynasty. However, according to the traditional concept of the Central Plains, the status of the daughter cannot be compared with that of her son. For example, Yang Guang's most famous daughter was the Concubine Yang who was included in the harem by Li Shimin.

In addition, I heard that there was a princess in Nanyang. After the Sui Dynasty destroyed her husband Yu Wenshi and became a female Taoist priest, Li Shimin did not make any difficulties at all. From this we can see that even if Princess Guanghua's daughter is still alive, she doesn't have to worry about her safety.

But in this way, the reason why Princess Guanghua was protected by the guards and escaped from Jiangdu was gone again, which made Li Xiu feel a little headache. After thinking about it, she couldn't figure out the reason. On the contrary, although Princess Pingyang was also very confused, she believed in her cousin, so she struggled for a while and then let it go.

However, Li Xiu always felt that Princess Guanghua seemed to have hidden something very important, so that he tossed and turned on the bed that night and couldn't sleep. It was not until dawn the next day that he fell asleep in a dawn. When he opened his eyes again, it was already sunny outside. However, looking at what he looked like today, it must have disappointed those who were looking forward to the rain.

Princess Pingyang has gone to talk to Princess Guanghua and the other daughter, and even Jin'er has been taken by her. Li Xiu had breakfast under Yuechan's service and wanted to find Yi Niang, but Yuechan told her that the manager in Luoyang has sent the accounts today, so she and Yi Niang have to check the accounts today, and I'm afraid there is no time to accompany Li Xiu.
