Shan Dan ranked seventh among the princes, and his biological mother Concubine Fu Guifei died early, and the first king entrusted him to Zhao Guifei, the biological mother of the current emperor, to raise.

Zhao Guifei is a relatively kind-hearted person, at that time, Zhao Guifei did not come out, regarded Shan Dan as her own child, took care of it personally, and loved her.

Even after Zhao Guifei had her own son Shan Qing, her love for Shan Dan did not decrease by half a point.

When Shan Dan grew up, he also treated Zhao Guifei as grateful and filial as his mother.

Shan Dan and Shan Qing grew up playing together since childhood, and their relationship is very good.

Since ancient times, the princes who have the ability and the backing of a strong family all want to compete for the throne, and they are all ambitious, secretly cultivating forces and competing with each other.

Shan Dan deeply knew that his mother had died early, and his mother's family had not fallen, so he had the heart to support him but was powerless.

Except for Shan Qing, the brothers are all smiling and hiding knives and secretly playing tricks.

If he shows the slightest sign of interest in the throne, he is afraid that even Shan Qing and Zhao Guifei will alienate themselves and become cannon fodder in the palace battle.

Shan Dan did not covet the throne, but he knew that in order to survive in the palace, he could not be too high-profile or too low-key, but he had to let his father remember that he had such a son.

At the same time, you must also cultivate your own power in secret, which must be cleverly built so that other princes do not feel that you are threatening their path to the throne, nor can they manipulate you at will.

Zhao Guifei's family is prominent, her father, brothers, uncles and nephews are all important ministers in the court, with high and powerful positions, and some also hold military power in their hands.

Of course, Shan Qing was full of confidence in the struggle for the throne, Zhao Guifei strongly supported it, and the Zhao family also helped with it.

Zhao Guifei knew that although her son was more than smart, he was not stable enough, his thoughts were jumping, his ears were soft, and he was easily sloppy.

And Shan Dan is talented, intelligent, eloquent, and far-sighted.

With Shan Dan's help to Shan Qing, things can be done.

So Zhao Guifei burst into tears, gave grace and might, and promised to be generous with high-ranking officials, and even knelt down to Shan Dan to beg Shan Dan to help Shan Qing.

Shan Dan naturally wouldn't give her a blessing to accept her worship, and immediately stopped her behavior.

In fact, if a disaster arises from a wall, who can be alone.

In order to repay Zhao Guifei's nurturing kindness, Shan Dan wanted to help Shan Qing, so he agreed on the spot.

However, Zhao Guifei's pretentiousness left a shadow on Shan Dan's psychology.

With Shan Dan's advice and the help of the Zhao family, Shan Qing finally defeated all the other princes and won the crown prince.

After the death of the first Wang Xian, Shun lì inherited the throne and took the country name Anqing.

In order to consolidate the Anqing Emperor's country, Shan Dan adopted drastic measures to eliminate the power of the princes in the court, and the methods were bloody.

He also gradually promoted and trained many students from poor families to important positions in the DPRK and the central government, severely punished corrupt officials and corrupt officials, reformed the imperial examination system, and recruited talents.

In order to commend Shan Dan's merits, Emperor Anqing named Shan Dan as the king and expressed his great respect for him.

He also gave the king's mansion, 100 slaves and maids, 10,000 good fields, 10,000 taels of gold, and countless jewels and silks.

Shan Dan is a rational and decisive person, who knows the truth that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger and retiring after success.

After stabilizing the shape of the court, he gradually handed back the power and military power in his hands to Emperor Anqing, and withdrew from the court and the opposition to be an idle prince.

Traveling all day long, drinking and talking with friends, playing chess.

Of course, what kind of character Shan Dan is, he has always been prepared to do things with both hands.

The world is unpredictable, the king's heart is unpredictable, and he seeks the skin of the tiger and is eaten.

Shan Dan seems to be indifferent to the world on the surface, but in fact, he has already arranged a lot of shadows in the palace and the court, just in case of use in the future, and it turns out that his approach is correct.
