Chapter 613: Meet Queen Xiao

After resting for a night, Li Xiu got up in high spirits. Yue Chan also prepared breakfast at this time. At that time, Li Xiu wanted to send Yue Chan back to Chang'an, but after living at the border for a while, he found that taking Yue Chan with him should be a very wise decision, at least he didn't have to worry about eating or changing clothes every day.

Li Xiu has always had high requirements for food, but when he was in the border, most of the supplies needed to be supplied to the army first, so his food standards have also been reduced. However, no matter what kind of ingredients are cooked by Yuechan, they will become very delicious. For example, today's breakfast is sweet and thick sweet potato porridge, and there are also a few side dishes he likes, which makes people feel very happy.

After breakfast, Li Xiu thought that he would visit the legendary Empress Xiao today, so he also changed into formal clothes and came to the Sui Palace in Dingxiang City. Zhao Deyan and his wife lived here yesterday. After hearing the news of Li Xiu's arrival, they immediately went out to greet him and invited him into the hall to meet Empress Xiao.

When Li Xiu stepped into the hall, he immediately saw the old woman with white hair sitting in the hall. Although he had known before that Empress Xiao was old and could not be as beautiful as in the legend of unofficial history, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he saw this old woman with white hair and wrinkles on her face.

"I'm here Li Xiu, I've seen... this... Mrs. Yang!" Li Xiu was in trouble when he saluted, because for the Tang Dynasty, the former Sui Dynasty had been destroyed, so he could not call the other party the queen anymore. Finally, he hesitated for a moment before calling him Mrs. Yang.

"You are polite to the prince consort. I have heard that the prince consort is young but talented. Even the people in the grassland are very respectful of the prince consort. Today, I saw that he was indeed a young talent!" Empress Xiao didn't care about titles at all. Instead, she looked up and down enthusiastically, and finally praised her.

"Well, old lady, are you polite!" Li Xiu said embarrassedly in the face of Queen Xiao's praise.

"By the way, is Xiuning's health okay? Do you have any children?" At this moment, Empress Xiao suddenly asked a question that surprised Li Xiu.

"Old lady knows Xiuning?" Li Xiu was stunned for a moment before reacting, and then asked incredible ways.

"Haha, I naturally recognize her. Her father once took her to the palace. I saw that although this little girl looked weak, she was quite heroic. Unexpectedly, she would become her father's good help in the future!" Queen Xiao nodded with a smile at this time, but when she talked about what happened back then, there was a bit of undetectable bitterness on her face.

When Li Xiu heard this, he immediately realized that Li Yuan and Yang Guang were cousins, so it was normal for him to bring his children into the palace, so it was not surprising that Empress Xiao recognized Princess Pingyang. Maybe she had even seen Li Shimin.

The facts also proved that Li Xiu's conjecture was correct. Next, Empress Xiao and Li Xiu had a family conversation. Not only did they ask Li Yuan, but also Li Shimin, but they didn't ask Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. It seemed that the old prince was also very cautious and knew that some things could not be touched with her current identity.

After chatting for a while, Empress Xiao suddenly asked Zhao Deyan and others to leave the hall, saying that there was something to talk to Li Xiu alone. Li Xiu also had some speculations about this. Finally, Empress Xiao said with a serious look on her face: "Mr. Prince Concubine, I heard Deyan say before, you promise that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not make things difficult for us. Is this true?"

Li Xiu knew that Queen Xiao would ask this question, so he nodded immediately and said, "Mrs. You can rest assured about this matter. Your Majesty will never make things difficult for you and your family. In fact, I can show you the proof of me."

"Uh? How to prove it?" Empress Xiao couldn't help but look at Li Xiu in surprise when she heard Li Xiu's words. Unless Li Shimin personally guaranteed the safety of their grandparents and grandchildren, she really couldn't think of any way Li Xiu could prove this?

Seeing that Queen Xiao didn't believe it, Li Xiu smiled slightly, then took out a letter from her arms and handed it to the other party, and signaled Queen Xiao to open it. Queen Xiao was also a little surprised at this time. She took the letter and looked at it, but she even showed a surprised expression because the words "Sister Kissing" were written on it. But after thinking about it, she couldn't think of anyone who would call her sister?

With doubts in his heart, Queen Xiao slowly opened the letter. As a result, when she saw the content on the letter, her face immediately changed, and she seemed very nervous, but then it eased again. When she saw the back of the letter, she became even more excited, and even her hands began to tremble.

"This... is this true?" After Queen Xiao finished reading the content in the letter, she looked at Li Xiu with disbelief and asked. The news was so shocked and surprised her.

"Yes, Princess Guanghua is still alive, and her daughter and son are also alive. However, for some reasons, she recognizes her son now. However, as long as the war is over, they will probably be able to get together. In addition, Your Majesty also knows about Princess Guanghua and their mother and son. Now the old lady should be able to return to Chang'an with confidence, right?" Li Xiu said with a smile.

The letter in Empress Xiao’s hand was written to her by Princess Guanghua. The Jiangdu Rebellion was also thanks to Queen Xiao’s decisive behavior, which allowed Princess Guanghua and his son to escape. For Princess Guanghua, she was also very grateful to Queen Xiao for her kindness. Therefore, she heard that Li Xiu and Ma Ye might bring back Empress Xiao this time, so she wrote a letter. It was originally brought by Ma Ye, but Ma Ye was in Xiangcheng and could not come with Li Xiu, so she handed the letter to him and asked him to pass it on his behalf.

"Princess Guanghua?" When she heard this strange title, Empress Xiao was stunned for a moment before she reacted, "Yes, she is Li Yuan's niece, the cousin of the current Emperor of Tang, and naturally the princess of a country. At the beginning, I also wanted to let her leave a piece of blood for the late emperor, but she didn't expect that she actually did it!"

At the end of the day, Queen Xiao couldn't help but shed tears of excitement. Although everyone in the world hated Yang Guang, she couldn't be the wife. Moreover, the relationship between the couple was also very good. Her biggest wish in recent years was to take care of Yang Zhengdao, the grandson, in order to leave Yang Guang a bloodline. However, she did not expect that Yang Guang would have a son alive. Even if the other party was not her son, she was already very content.
