Return to the Marquis' Mansion.
Yang Zhaodu still felt a chill on his back.
It took her a long time to dispel the feeling, but it also made her more alert and solemn.
I don't know if it's because she sent a letter that day...
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao whispered something to Dong Shuang beside him.
Dong Shuang nodded quickly and left.
"Eryue, send someone to Shanhongtang to ask the third young master to come back." Yang Zhao then instructed Eryue.
"yes."
Yiyue then brought the sweet soup. "Miss, please drink some of the sweet soup to moisten your throat first. Miss Xier is already drinking it."
Xier sat at the round table.
At his feet was Xiao Hei, shaking his head, as if he wanted to drink the sweet soup too, wagging his tail very vigorously. Xiao Xi was sneaky and wanted to give him a spoonful to share, but was quickly stopped by the little girl beside him...
'Woof'
Xiao Hei barked in dissatisfaction.
Finally, the little girl took out a bone from somewhere, and Xiao Hei was satisfied and ran away happily with the bone in his mouth... Yang Zhao smiled faintly and looked away.
"Wait a minute, have someone bring a bowl of sweet soup to little Ayu as well."
"Yes, miss."
But very quickly.
Before January could even give any instructions, a little maid came hurriedly to report: "Miss, the maid just came to report that Master Ayou had just left."
Yang Zhao was slightly stunned: "Just now? She left on her own?"
"Yes, the old woman said that she tried to stop him and wanted to send someone to inform him, but the young master Ayou refused to stay and said that his master had returned and he had to go back. He only left a letter, saying it was for the young lady." The little maid handed over a letter.
Yang Zhao took it.
After opening it, there was a prescription inside the letter.
...is a prescription for relieving fetal toxins.
Yang Zhao thought of something and stood up quickly.
But after thinking it over calmly, she sat back down. After staring at the prescription for a while, Yang Zhao handed it to Yi Yue: "Have someone prepare the herbs first. When Miss Xu comes over, show her this prescription and see if it can be used with her acupuncture."
"yes."
Yang Huaijin only rushed back when it was almost dark.
"elder sister."
After Yang Huaijin entered the room, he drank a large cup of tea. His forehead was covered with sweat. After soothing his throat, he was about to tell his sister about what he had done, but before he opened his mouth, he stopped.
His eyes froze slightly.
Then he took two steps at a time and quickly walked to the table. He picked up the white cloth on the table. As soon as he touched it, his pupils trembled slightly: "Spider Cloud Brocade?"
"Sister, this is big brother's..."
White spider brocade.
There was also a small bamboo tail embroidery pattern on the corner. Although it was just a small corner, it showed that this piece of cloth came from their eldest brother... But their eldest brother had clearly died in battle five years ago...
Yang Zhao had already dismissed the maids in the house.
Even the winter frost has gone out.
"yes."
Yang Zhao nodded without hesitation and replied, "Big brother may... not be dead yet." Yang Zhao told him about his trip to Qiyang Village to meet Xiao Ba.
Yang Huaijin's eyes flashed red with excitement.
"Sister, I'll go pick up Xiao Ba." Yang Huaijin said with red eyes.
But Yang Zhao stopped him.
"Don't go yet."
"Something's not right with Hachi."
"Also, don't let anyone know about this before it's fully investigated. If eldest brother is really not dead, but hasn't shown up and hasn't passed the news to father, there must be a reason. The battle in Lingcheng that year... I'm afraid there must be something wrong." Yang Zhao also figured out some things after he calmed down.
That year, Lingcheng was attacked by the enemy at night. However, there was a traitor among the Lingcheng defenders. He cooperated with the enemy from inside and outside, and the city gate of Lingcheng was breached in one fell swoop. It was the Lingcheng generals who held the last line of defense and waited for the support of the neighboring Yang family army.
At that time, it was her eldest brother who led the team to provide support with great speed.
I heard that the fighting that night was extremely brutal, and they finally drove the enemy out of the city gates, protecting the civilians behind them. However, her eldest brother was seriously injured and was shot dead by the enemy general on the battlefield. After his death, the enemy general provoked him to chop off his head and burn it in public...
Yang Zhao had doubts before.
Suspecting that her elder brother was not dead, she found a substitute for herself in the city under the pretext of going out on business and rushed to Lingcheng with her identity concealed.
Went to the place where her elder brother was burned.
She went to look for it herself.
Also let people look for it.
I searched again and again, but there was nothing.
Everything seemed to indicate that her elder brother was dead, and his head was chopped off and burned after he died in battle.
It's not like she hasn't had some crazy thoughts about doing something.
But……
After that battle, before she could think of how to retaliate, and before her father could find a reason to take action, that country directly offered a peace agreement and willingly became a vassal state of the Mo Dynasty.
A son of the Yang family in exchange for a vassal state.
Everyone knows what choice will be made!!
that's all.
Her eldest brother's death brought peace between the two countries.
Emperor Wenyuan was afraid that her father would be dissatisfied, so he posthumously conferred the title of third-rank general of national defense on her eldest brother, and her second brother inherited the title of prince of the marquisate, and also conferred a third-rank imperial edict on her grandmother.
Even she was given a lot of gold and silver jewelry.
After such "pacification", Yang Tiejiang did not engage in any major wars except for a few minor skirmishes when he found opportunities. In addition, the main battlefield of the Yang family army was the Yongcheng border with the Xiongnu.
