"What, is there something wrong with this Yang Liangdi?" Zhang Zong saw the change in expression on Xue Shao's face, and immediately asked curiously again. Li Hong's reaction was a little strange before, and now Xue Shao is the same, which makes him even more curious.

"Brother Shi, don't you know Yang Liangdi's identity?" Xue Shao asked back at this time.

"She is a woman in the prince's uterus, how could I know?" Zhang Zong asked even more strangely.

"Brother Shi, think about it again. Her surname is Yang. Do you have no associations with this surname?" Xue Shao reminded again.

"Yang? Is this surname very ordinary?" Zhang Zong also said strangely to himself when he heard this.

The Yang family is a big surname and a national surname from the former Sui Dynasty. Unfortunately, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Yang family of Hongnong was hit too much, which led to their influence being greatly reduced, which made the Yang family of Hongnong not ranked among the five surnames and seven hopes. However, except for these top clans, the remaining clans rarely compare with the Yang family of Hongnong.

"Hongnong Yang!" However, Zhang Zong suddenly said to himself again in surprise, because when he thought of Hongnong Yang, he suddenly thought that Li Hong's first crown princess, the former crown princess who was raped by Helan Minzhi, seemed to be from Hongnong Yang.

"Can't it... she is that..." Zhang Zong finally guessed the other party's identity at this time. In fact, he had heard that the woman from Yang was raped by Helan Minzhi before, and wanted to know her whereabouts, but it was difficult to inquire. Unexpectedly, Li Hong still included her in the East Palace.

"That's right, she is the daughter of Yang Sijian, the youngest young master of Siwei. She was originally the imperial crown princess, but because of being defiled by Helan Min, this incident also led to a break between Cousin Hong and the queen of the divine. However, Cousin Hong still adopted Yang's daughter as a good wife afterwards. However, what happened back then caused a lot to her. Even I heard that there seemed to be something wrong with her spirit and rarely showed up in normal times." Xue Shao sighed at this time.

After hearing this, Zhang Zong was surprised and admired Li Hong more. After all, not all men can have such a courage, especially in the ancient social environment, no matter what the reason, a woman will be criticized by countless people, let alone Li Hong is still the prince.

However, thanks to the Tang Dynasty, if it were later in the Ming and Qing dynasties, even Li Hong would not have accepted a woman who lost her chastity as a good wife. In contrast, the Tang Dynasty was still relatively tolerant of women. Not to mention anything else, Wu Meiniang served Li Shimin and Li Zhi and her son, and she could both become the queen of the heavens, let alone Li Hong accepted a woman who lost her chastity as a good wife.

"The prince is really admirable!" Zhang Zong thought for a long time before he looked up. Li Hong had his own conscience and bottom line, and such people were generally not bad, which made Zhang Zong even more convinced that he had not read the wrong person.

"Yes, I am also impressed by cousin Hong's demeanor, but the one who deserves the most is Helan Minzhi. Fortunately, he died early. If he was still alive now, I would have to arrest him and Ling Chi!" Xue Shao said in the end.

Zhang Zong smiled helplessly when he heard this. Everything that happened back then was over, and Helan Minzhi was dead. No matter how much he assumed it, it would be useless. Now he can only sigh that Yang Liangdi has a tragic fate.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the Chinese New Year again. Zhang Zong also prepared early. He went to Xue Shao's house in the morning. The eldest princess had already prepared generous betrothal gifts. There were many people coming today, such as Li Dan, Li Xian and Li Guangshun and his son, all of them came.

However, compared to other people, the most unexpected thing is that Li Hong actually came in person, which caused a lot of sensation. After all, Li Hong and Princess Chengyang have different identities. Although it was rumored that they might have formed an alliance, there was no tangible evidence. Today, Li Hong appeared here, which obviously confirmed the previous rumors.

As soon as the auspicious time arrived, the servants of the eldest princess's mansion immediately set off with the betrothal gift. Zhang Zong, Xue Shao, Li Dan and others rode in front of them. Although it was not a formal wedding reception, it was also very lively. There were bands of blowjobs and beatings in front and behind, and even servants sprinkled copper coins, which attracted a lot of people.

Finally, the team came to the Duke of Zhao's Mansion, which was also decorated with lights. On the one hand, it was for engagement, and on the other hand, it was also for preparations for the Shangyuan Festival. In the past two years, under the management of Changsun Yuanyi, the Changsun family has also recovered some vitality. Most of the buildings in the mansion have been rebuilt, and now it no longer looks as dilapidated as before.

Changsun Yuanyi, the current Duke of Zhao and Changsun Yuanyi's brother, naturally had to go out to greet him in person. However, there were two men in front of him, the one in front was a gray-haired old man. This man was Changsun Chong, the son of Changsun Wuji, and the grandfather of Changsun Yuanyi's brother and sister. Behind Changsun Chong was Changsun Yan, the father of Changsun Yuanyi.

It was the first time Zhang Zong saw Changsun Chong. At this time, he was also looking at the former prince-consort curiously. What disappointed him was that Changsun Chong looked like an ordinary old man, even his body was a little hunched, his face was full of wrinkles, and his body seemed not very good, and he looked like he was about to be idled.

However, when Princess Chengyang saw Changsun coming, she immediately got off the carriage and went forward to salute the other party. The other party was her cousin and her brother-in-law. Unfortunately, Princess Changle passed away too early, otherwise even if the Changsun family was demoted, they would not have fallen to such a point.

When Changsun Chong saw Princess Chengyang, he seemed to be a little moved, and then invited them to the mansion. Zhang Zong, Xue Shao and others were also invited to the living room to use tea, while Changsun Chong sat opposite Princess Chengyang. After chatting about family matters, the two began to discuss the marriage between Xue Shao and Changsun Yuanyi.

Zhang Zong listened to him for a while and felt bored, so he chatted with Changsun Yuanyi next to him, but the other party still looked dull and never spoke on his own initiative. Only when Zhang Zong asked, he would respond a few words, which made Zhang Zong a little helpless. How could such a shrewd woman like Changsun Yuanyi have such a dull brother?

But at this moment, Changsun Yuanyi seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then he bowed to Zhang Zong and said with a very rare initiative: "Brother Zhang, I heard that the marriage between Sanlang and the sister-sat can be successful, thanks to you, I will thank you for your reconciliation here for your younger sister!"
