On the east side of the Feixiang Hall of Danei, there is an idle palace garden. It was originally a temporary resting place for palace servants to live together with the North Gate Army. The royal heir Li Dan's family is now arranged here.

Long before Princess Taiping and the Southern Province courtiers arrived, Yang Sixu received a notice from Qianqi and led a group of musicians and palace servants to withdraw from this area. The Qianqi soldiers who replaced him here only followed the orders of the King of Dai, only set up defenses on the periphery, and did not approach the royal heirs, so as to avoid being mistakenly thought by the Southern Province courtiers as hostage.

"Where is the royal heir?"

Princess Taiping, who came from the south, arrived here first, looked at the Thousand Cavalry Commander stationed here and asked. After getting the answer, she kept heading straight to the Yiyuan.

Seeing this, Li Zhaode, Di Renjie and others in the rear also followed him one after another. Of course, before entering, they did not forget to let the Nanya Imperial Army who followed here replace Qianqi to defend this place. The Qianqi soldiers also cooperated very well and quickly put away the team and headed towards Xuanwu Gate.

Seeing Qianqi performing like this, Li Zhaode and others were also mixed for a while. It was very happy that although the plan for this night had a considerable deviation, the King of Dai was able to abide by the agreement and did not prevent them from greeting the royal heir.

What is worried about is that compared to the chaos and clumsy performance of the Nanya night, the Beiya won too much, and there was no chaos or flaws at all. This also shows the strong control of the Dai King over the Beiya. The reason why they were allowed to come here to welcome the imperial heir was a sense of fearless confidence.

Although Li, Di and others had their own concerns about the restoration of order in the future, the most important thing at the moment was to welcome the imperial heir out of the inner palace and go to a range they could control, so they could only temporarily suppress these ideas.

When the dynasties in the southern province entered the inner garden, they saw that Princess Taiping had already walked into the hall, so they all quickly got off their horses and climbed up the steps.

When Princess Taiping walked into the hall, she saw the royal heir Li Dan sitting upright in front of two new screens, surrounded by his wife and children. Although two candles were lit in the hall and the light was still dark, she could still feel the panic that spread from the family sitting around.

"Brother, it's me, I'm here to pick you up!"

Princess Taiping raised her hand and pressed back, signaling the soldiers behind her to pause, and she strode forward. When she said this, her eyes had turned red.

People are not plants and trees, so who can be ruthless? The relationship between the heavenly family may be thin, but compared with other brothers, Princess Taiping has a deeper relationship with this young brother, not only is she closer in age, but she also spends longer together.

But as sensitive as before, Princess Taiping also had her own family to care about, and could only bury this friendship in her heart and dare not reveal it too much.

At this time, she saw that her brother, who was obviously the lord of the world, was now trapped in a humble hall, and even his wife and children could not protect him. She felt helpless all over her body, and Princess Taiping felt sad and a desire to protect herself from her heart.

"It's Taiping... Ah Mei, why did you appear here? What happened this night?"

Seeing someone entering outside the hall, Li Dan subconsciously raised his hand and held his wife and children behind him. When he saw the visitor clearly, Princess Taiping, he was shocked and suspicious. He stood up from the table, walked around the desk for a few steps, and then subconsciously retreated back to his original place, and his eyes moved quickly between Princess Taiping and the soldiers who entered the hall.

"Brother, please rest assured. The clouds have dissipated and no one can harm you again!"

Princess Taiping felt a sense of sadness when she saw the emperor's subconscious defense. She took two steps back, knelt deep on the ground, and said, "This night, Shenzhi conspired with the dynasty of the Southern Province to invade the affairs. The King of Wei, King Liang and other thieves who were in trouble with the country have all been killed! I and the dynasty of the Southern Province to welcome you out of the palace with my brother."

"Sheng, it's King Dai!"

After hearing this, Li Dan's eyes were still full of confusion, but when he heard the word "out of the palace", his body subconsciously trembled and he immediately said, "My mother... Your Majesty, how can she be now?"

"My mother is safe and worry-free. Shenzhi bravely seizes Xuanwu Gate. She is still protecting her mother's sleep. You can rest assured, fourth brother."

Princess Taiping raised her head after answering, not only because of the illusion but also because of the dimness. She quickly frowned when she saw the royal heir. As for the concubines behind, the disappointment on her face was particularly obvious.

Seeing this scene, Princess Taiping's heart tightened and said, "The reason why she transferred Brother A to this state is that she is worried that once the matter is in trouble, it may be difficult to take into account both thoroughly. He hastily not allowed to report it. Please don't mind, brother."

"How could it be?"

When Li Dan heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly, and at the same time, his face also showed a sad expression, and he sighed: "It is rare for young people to take care of them in full, which really makes me ashamed! A young man like the King of Dai has bravely launched a war and eliminated the thieves and settled the country. It is really a blessing for my family..."

While speaking, another eunuch came into the hall to report to the court officials in the southern province to ask for an interview. Li Dan heard several names and looked a little confused. After pausing, he squeezed out a smile to Princess Taiping: "Living in this deserted palace, your wife and children are in a state of disgrace. It is not a courtesy to welcome the ministers. Can you please bring your nephews away for a while? I am decent?"

"Don't worry, brother, I will properly place it."

After hearing this, Princess Taiping nodded subconsciously, before entering, she said softly to comfort her, and even more pity-looking, picked up a little niece who was still in her infancy with her face, and led more than a dozen guards to go around the hall from the side.

But when she walked past the hall corridor and saw Li Zhaode and others climbing into the hall in a row, she subconsciously slowed down, and then her steps returned to normal. She handed the niece in her arms to a palace servant and introduced the royal family into a leisure hall for temporary settlement.

Then Princess Taiping walked out again, looked at the palace garden in the west, and subconsciously took a few steps in that direction, but soon stopped again. There was a struggle between her eyebrows and eyes, but she finally stopped here.

After Princess Taiping led her family away, Li Dan returned to the hall to sit up. When he saw Li Zhaode and others walking, he had already stood up and walked around the desk. He stepped forward and held Li Zhaode's arms with both hands, his eyes full of sadness and relief: "Mr. Li doesn't have to be too polite..."

He paused for a moment before speaking, "I can see Mr. Li and Mr. Li here. Although I am not calm enough, I am thankful for you!"

While speaking, he took another step back, raised his hands and wanted to bow.

Seeing this, Li Zhaode and others hurriedly bowed to the place of Yudi, and shouted: "His Royal Highness has been living in the deep garden for a long time, and I have fewer crimes. I will be punished by the traitors. I will be punished by the way to see you. Please ask His Royal Highness and his ministers to go to the southern province. The dynasties are thirsty and sick."

"All the ministers of the same palace, why should you give this great gift?"

Seeing this, Li Dan hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Zhaode, but Li Zhaode pushed the emperor's heir into the table. After asking for instructions, he ordered the chariot to drive into the hall, and everyone supported each other.

When I sat in the car, I saw the court and soldiers standing inside and outside the Yiyuan, although they were still trying their best to control their emotions, the thin body under the robe still couldn't help but tremble, and two lines of long tears were silently passing by.

After boarding the bus, Li Dan saw that his family members also boarded the car that came with him, and Li Dan's eyes showed a little peace of mind.

He leaned forward to face Princess Taiping outside the palace road and waved to him. When the princess entered, he bent down and grabbed the princess' wrist and said softly: "I haven't been out for a long time, I'm unfamiliar with people and affairs. Ah Mei is with me."

"this……"

Princess Taiping was a little surprised after hearing this. She glanced at the ministers around the car and nodded, got in and sat side by her brother.

The car drove slowly away from the Xianyuan, and when he passed by Zhenguan Hall and arrived in front of Daye Gate, Li Dan finally couldn't help but feel excited, raised his hand to cover his face, and his shoulders twitched.

"Brother, it's all over, no good fortune is coming..."

Seeing this scene, Princess Taiping felt sour in her nose. She blinked her eyes to dispel the tide in her eyes, and raised her hand to caress her brother's shoulders and back, comforting her with a gentle tone.

The person in charge of the defense here at Dayemen was still the male family of Yulin Weiquan. Seeing that the ministers came to the imperial heir, they ordered the soldiers to let go.

Before passing by, Li Dan raised his hand to stop the car, held the car board with his hand, leaned over to look at Quan Nanchan and asked, "Can King Dai come and see him? He has done this great deed and made great contributions to his family and country, so he should thank him in person!"

Quan Nanchan was stunned after hearing this, and after a moment, he crossed his hands and said, "Rong Jia is in his body, it is not convenient to give him a full courtesy. Please forgive him for his crimes! His Highness Dai Wang was in front of His Majesty the Holy Emperor Gongxianjuyuan, worried that there will still be chaos, so he may not be able to come to see him calmly..."

When Li Dan heard this, he couldn't help but look back at the inner palace area behind him. He suddenly realized that before leaving the palace, he should have seen his mother for reason.

With such thoughts in his mind, he turned to look at Princess Taiping in the same car, and then looked at Li Zhaode and others who were walking in the car, but they seemed to have not realized the problem.

It is of course impossible to realize it. Even if Li Dan is still only a little bit of aware of what to do tonight and is confused, he can think of this problem, let alone these planners and participants.

But Li Dan finally did not raise this question, either because of his deep fear and fear of his mother, or because of other things. He raised his hand to remove a plain white pendant on his waist, raised his hand to Quan Nansheng, and said in a voice: "The Zong family has survived, and the power of the Dai King. There is no big thing in his body, but this is the closest thing to express his feelings. Please give it to Dai King."

After saying that, Li Dan raised his hand and signaled the car to continue moving forward. When he arrived near Mingtang, the east was already covered with fish white and a slim reverberated. Li Dan looked up at the iron phoenix flapping on the top of the divine palace and said slowly: "This divine palace is really tall!"

Soon, the car passed the Qianyuan Gate in front of the Mingtang, and the number of courtiers and imperial guards saw the road increased. In the car, Li Dan subconsciously held Princess Taiping's hand, while Princess Taiping leaned slightly and pointed at the people on both sides of the road and patiently told the Huangsi about their respective identities.

Li Dan listened carefully to Princess Taiping's story. Although he replaced his third brother Li Xian as emperor in the early years of Chuigong, he had never held the power of a king. In the early years of Chuigong, he would still attend the court with his mother, but with the rebellion in Yangzhou, he had fewer and fewer such opportunities.

Moreover, it has been nearly ten years since the beginning of the year of Chugong. The struggle in the court has never stopped in the past few years. Most of the court officials Li Dan is familiar with are no longer there, and it can be said that all the characters are different.

Especially after the court officials privately visited him last year, he was completely forbidden to meet the court officials and was completely detained in the deep palace. He was confused about what the current situation was like.

The Emperor Si just listened and asked, which made Princess Taiping breathe a sigh of relief. She was worried. If her brother asked where Doulu Qinwang was, she didn't know how to answer. When introducing the Emperor Si, she would try to avoid the rest.

Because the incident of Doulu Qinwang in southern province happened, the situation was still quite chaotic, so the imperial heir could only be temporarily arranged in the political affairs hall within the Zetian Gate.

At this time, more than a dozen ministers were waiting here. When the Emperor Siyi arrived here, they all moved forward with excitement.

After the car stopped, Princess Taiping got out of the car first and helped the emperor down. At this time, a little golden light from the east jumped out of the palace wall, and the morning light fell down, which also made the emperor's beautiful robe shine with a rich halo.

"I welcome your royal heir!"

Seeing the ministers bowing in front of the car, Li Dan felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously leaned back, but was grabbed by Princess Taiping beside him. Then he felt relieved and stabilized. He first nodded and smiled at his sister who was following him, then stepped forward steadily, held his hands flat, and said in a voice: "Please exempt you from the gift, I really don't dare to take it!"

Despite the emperor's words, the ministers still worshiped again, and many emotional people were already sobbing.

The emperor in front of me talked about how old he was, but whether it was his temples or the short beards under his jaw, they were obviously gray and mottled, with deep vertical lines between his eyebrows, and his shoulders were always unconsciously sandwiched beside his body, and his chest and back were slightly bent and leaned forward.

Although he was bathed in the rising sun, his slightly cramped smile and his slightly pale face all revealed a strong scent of the deep palace.

The front of the political affairs hall had been cleaned up, and the blood stains that had been sputtered were washed away. The traces of swords and slashing on the railings were not enough to be repaired, but they were also covered up by the silk tents set up.

The ministers followed the emperor to the main hall of the Political Affairs Hall. Seeing that Princess Taiping was always following her, many court officials frowned secretly. However, when they thought of Princess Taiping leading the crowd into the Political Affairs Hall and ordered the shooting of Doulu Qinwang and others, when they saw Princess Taiping's dependence on Princess Taiping in the actions of the Royal Society, they were still tactful and did not speak out, preventing the princess from entering the hall.

When the emperor and Princess Taiping took over the seat, all the ministers were also taken to this seat. Then Li Zhaode stood up and told the story of the incident that had just passed the night.

In fact, according to the current identity of the people in the hall, Li Zhaode should not have been reported. At this time, the twenty or thirty ministers in the hall were prime minister Yang Zaisi and Du Jingjian, six ministries of the Southern Province and the prisoners of various temples, including Li Zhaode. As for Li Zhaode, he was still an embarrassing identity as a wanderer until now.

However, after the emperor sat down, he subconsciously looked at Li Zhaode, and Li Zhaode also took the initiative to come out to report. Even if everyone in the hall had any complaints, there was no reason to stop and fight.

Moreover, what Li Zhaode did in the past is worthy of this treatment. Not to mention that he returned to the capital alone, he was the mastermind of the incident with King Dai and others. In the struggle for Li Wu to fight for the throne since the Tianshu period, Li Zhaode was also the absolute main force supporting the imperial heir.

Without Li Zhaode's support, under the rushing attack of King Wei and others, the situation of Huangsi and his old officials in the Tang family would be even more difficult. Not to mention anything else, Huangsi may not be very familiar with the dynasties present, including Di Renjie. Therefore, he really does not have the qualification to compete with Li Zhaode.

The emperor just listened to Li Zhaode's story carefully. Starting from Li Zhaode and his friends' conspiracy, when he heard Di Renjie take the initiative to contact King Dai, he turned to Di Renjie nodded heavily to him. He really only heard of the names of the judiciaries in front of him, and knew the matter briefly, but he did not have any in-depth understanding.

Then when he heard King Dai speak out in Princess Taiping's mansion and quickly take over the King of Wei after leaving the house, Li Dan couldn't help but slap his hands and say loudly: "Dai Wangcheng is my grandson, and his great contribution is worthy of praise!"

Not only Li Dan, but almost all the court officials present knew the entire process of this incident through Li Zhaode's mouth, and the reactions were inevitably different.

The prime ministers Yang Zaisi and Du Jingjian, who were in front of the seat, had a little unnatural expression after learning about the important role of King Dai in this incident. Especially Yang Zaisi often raised his hands to wipe his sweat.

Although Li Zhaode did not say the deeper cause carefully, anyone knows that the choice of King Dai to invade the matter at this moment has a direct relationship with the previous alliance between King Wu Sansi of Liang and the prime ministers to resist King Dai.

Although Yang Zaisi and others did not end up as miserable as Dou Lu Qinwang, they could imagine that their future was quite bleak. Not to mention that these two prime ministers were both in a difficult position, other ministers in the hall, such as Cui Xuanwei and others, their eyes were already quite unkind and full of gloating.

As for Wang Fangqing, the left chief of Wenchang who should have belonged to the King of Dai, his expression was actually a bit awkward at this moment, and he just lowered his head and said nothing.

He was one of the first ministers to move closer to the Dai King in the current situation, but in Li Zhaode's account, he clearly showed that the Dai King had never discussed it with him when he was planning things.

Therefore, there are many courtiers looking at Wang Fangqing curiously, and his eyes made Wang Fangqing even more ashamed.

Although he still feels that it is safe to make suggestions to the Dai King before, in fact, the Dai King did not follow his advice, but chose a more radical approach, and the situation reached has been unexpectedly good so far.

So Wang Fangqing was also very regretful at this moment, and he couldn't help but think that if he had chosen to follow the decision of the King of Dai at that time, instead of being smart enough to give the King of Dai a path away from the center, what would be the current situation?

Although the current direction of the big dynasty is still to be discussed, for the Dai King, it is tantamount to breaking through the restriction that has been shrouded in it through this incident and having the influence that can truly influence the current situation. This should have been an excellent opportunity for the Dai King and his group, but now it is a bit unexpected.

The only thing that can be comforted at the moment is that the courtiers may have already guessed about this, but they still cannot know the inner love song. Wang Fangqing just hopes that the King of Dai can reconcile and accept their Jiangnan scholars again.

Otherwise, if the emperor's heirs are just leaving the palace, these old ministers of the Tang family will be so excited. Without the support of the Dai King, the order in the future will not be restored, and the people of Jiangnan will not have a foothold.

If they and King Dai had achieved each other before, then now, King Dai has become the backing for their Jiangnan people to give up. The imperial heir's departure from the palace does not mean that the world is peaceful, and Doulu Qinwang's tragic death is the best proof.
To be continued...
