Letter to the Former Empress Xiao of Sui
Concubine Yang's entire body trembled, and her face revealed a terrified expression.
What could Li Chengdao have to discuss with her?
Zhangsun Wugou grabbed Concubine Yang's hand and comforted her,""Sister, don't be afraid.
I would have made a move just now. I wouldn't have waited until I had a private conversation with you.”
Concubine Yang felt slightly comforted.
That day, Li Chengdao had dragged Li Ke to death with his horse, leaving a terrifying mark in her heart that could never be erased.
After comforting Concubine Yang, Zhangsun Wugou turned to Li Chengqian and reprimanded,"
"Chengqian, we are now under the control of others.
In the future, don't talk to Li Chengdao like today.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be strange if he killed her that day.
He was a ruthless person and would never show mercy.”
Li Chengqian's eyes reddened from the scolding. He raised his small head and said stubbornly,
"Father is not a traitor, he is talking nonsense!”
Concubine Yang sneered and did not say anything. She just turned around and went back into the house.
Whether Li Shiming was a traitor or not, Li Chengqian, a seven or eight-year-old child, might speak up for his father.
However, she and Zhangsun Wugou were very clear about this.
Not only was he a traitor, but he was also a cold-blooded and heartless person who killed his brother and forced his father to die.
Zhangsun Wugou sighed deeply and didn't agree with Li Chengqian's words, but he couldn't bear to reprimand him anymore.
He reached out and pulled the son and daughter into his arms. He sighed and said,"Be careful when you speak here. That Li Chengdao really dares to kill us. Mother doesn't want to lose you guys again.”
"Mother, when will father come to save us?”
Li Lizhi said with a sobbing tone. Her little face was already covered in tears.
Hearing Li Lizhi's words, Zhangsun Wugou suddenly recalled the scene of Li Shiming ignoring Li Tai, Li Ke, and the others and getting killed outside the Heavenly Policy Manor.
"Lizhi, don't be afraid. Mother is here…"
Zhangsun Wugou didn't know if Li Shiming would come to save them.
Perhaps she had an answer, but she didn't want to admit it.
……
Night fell.
The bright moonlight shone down like silver light.
The sky was dotted with stars.
Li Chengdao, who was used to the smog and the lack of stars at night in his later life.
Lying on the roof, he leisurely admired the beautiful stars in the sky.
He had just found the position of the Big Dipper and was looking for Altair and Vega.
"Your Highness, the person is here."
Just as Li Chengdao was struggling to find the Cowherd and Vega, a Crown Prince guard walked into his courtyard.
Following the crown prince's guard into the courtyard was a gentle and weak woman.
This woman had a beautiful face and was extremely dignified and beautiful.
Especially between his eyebrows, there was an indescribable nobility.
She was dressed in palace robes, which made her look even more graceful and luxurious.
This person was the former princess of the Sui Dynasty, and now Li Shimin's concubine.
Li Chengdao waved his hand casually, and the Crown Prince's guard immediately retreated from the courtyard respectfully.
He was still looking at the stars in the sky and said casually,"
"Auntie is here."
Concubine Yang was a little restless when facing a demon like Li Chengdao alone.
His entire body was completely tensed up, and he did not dare to relax at all.
"May I know why Your Highness is looking for me?”
Li Chengdao didn't answer her and continued,"
"There's a ladder next to it. You can climb up to the roof and admire the vast starry sky with me.”
Concubine Yang looked at the height of the roof and then at Li Chengdao.
After a moment of silence, he slowly walked to the ladder on the roof.
He carefully climbed up bit by bit.
According to her personality, she would never have the courage to climb up the roof.
However, out of fear of Li Chengdao, she did not dare to disobey.
After Concubine Yang climbed up to the roof in fear, Li Chengdao continued to speak slowly,
"Auntie, I've been looking for a long time, but I can't find the Altair and Vega.
Can you point it out for me?"
Concubine Yang was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Li Chengdao to make such a request.
She scanned the sky and soon found the Cowherd and Weaver Star.
She pointed at the sky with a slender finger and said,"
"Do you see that Milky Way? The two brightest stars beside the Milky Way are Altair and Vega.”
Li Chengdao looked in the direction of Concubine Yang's finger and carefully searched and confirmed it.
In the end, he found Altair and Vega.
"Why do you think the Queen Mother was so cruel to forcefully separate the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, making them only meet once a year at the Magpie Bridge?”
Concubine Yang did not know how to answer.
The cowherd was a cowherd in the mortal world, and the Weaver Girl was a fairy in the sky.
Of course, the two of them could not be together.
It was already a great gift for the Queen Mother to let them meet once a year.
However, she could tell from Li Chengdao's tone that he was dissatisfied with Madam Wang's actions.
He simply remained silent.
Li Chengdao didn't seem to want to hear Concubine Yang's answer and continued,"
"The universe is so vast, and humans are as tiny as ants.
Everyone fought over it, but in the end, they would still turn into a pile of yellow soil.”
Concubine Yang couldn't help but turn to look at Li Chengdao.
This young man beside him, who was only in his prime, actually had such an epiphany?
Shaking her head, she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and asked,
"I wonder why Your Highness has called me here so late at night.”
Li Chengdao sat up and leaned against the roof in a more comfortable position.
"Your mother, Empress Xiao, is currently in the Turks and has been taken in by your aunt, the former Princess Sui Yicheng.
I want you to write a letter and send it to the Turks, to your mother.”
Upon hearing the name Empress Xiao, Concubine Yang felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stared at the sky in a daze, and two lines of tears silently flowed down her cheeks.
