The Shuanglong jade pendant is indeed owned by the royal family, and it can only be worn by His Majesty the Emperor.

The treasures in the palace, each one will be registered, and royal ornaments like the Shuanglong jade pendant will never be left outside.

The ornaments used by the emperor are naturally extremely exquisite.

From the selection of the material topaz of the mountain, to the design of the shape of the ornaments, and then carved by skilled craftsmen, a small jade pendant, from beginning to end involved at least dozens of people, and they are the top masters in the industry.

Because of the cumbersome process, other treasures in the palace may be filled with personal pockets or even stolen, but no one dares to make up their minds with Shuanglong Jade Pendant.

Unless it was given by the emperor himself, it would never be possible for anyone to obtain the Shuanglong jade pendant.

Everyone around them was dumbfounded.

The prince of the Tang Empire actually appeared in Xiling, and it was at this banquet.

It's just unbelievable.

But the double dragon jade pendant represents the emperor's prestige, in the whole world, except for the emperor, no second person is qualified to wear such a jade pendant, and the emperor will never easily reward such ornaments to others.

At this time, Li Huo took out the double dragon jade pendant, and even the general was shocked.

"The general is well-informed, so he can naturally recognize that this jade pendant is not a forgery." Li Huo stared at the general and said calmly: "If the general thinks that we are forgery, you can find a jade craftsman, as long as a jade craftsman with more than five years of experience, it is easy to see that this jade pendant is definitely not made in recent years." ”

The fine lines on his forehead appear heavier.

Fan Ziqi and Bai Jingzhai went crazy in public today, and then ceremoniously launched Li Tuo, the prince, and Li Tuo also revealed his identity to everyone in public, and even came up with very strong evidence.

All this, of course, is intentional.

Some people even feel that they are in a dream, and everything in front of them is not real, but some people have keenly felt that this Tang prince named Li Tuo suddenly stood up, whether it is true or not, it will make Xiling set off a monstrous wave.

Pei Shiqing's lips moved slightly, he didn't make a sound, and looked at the general, his expression extremely ugly.

"Where did you come from?" The general finally spoke.

To be able to establish a great martial arts and leave a brilliant legacy in the long river of history, there is an important premise, that is, to have a strong physique, have strong energy, and open up the territory of the world and the outside world.

When Emperor Dezong was young, his body was already sick.

Although the first emperor also gave birth to a prince, they all died in infancy, leaving only two princesses, and because of this, the prince of the empire was not determined until the first emperor died.

Of course, this group of people wants to let the world know that the bloodline of the first emperor is in Xiling.

The general naturally knew a lot about the succession of the previous emperor to the current saint.

For more than 200 years, the Tang Dynasty has been like a cloud, and the first emperor Dezong compared to his ancestors, whether it is in terms of culture or martial arts, is not outstanding, this is not the mediocrity of Emperor Dezong, the reason is that Emperor Dezong is weak and sick.

Emperor Dezong's edict, of course, was groundbreaking, unexpected by everyone, and definitely not in line with the continuation of the Tang Empire, so Zhao Yankuo and other courtiers immediately wrote after the edict was issued, begging Emperor Dezong to retract his order.

The Tang Empire is the world of the Li family, and Emperor Dezong has no heirs, so of course he must choose a successor from the Li family.

The morality that the literati and doctors insisted on was, at least in the eyes of many, a righteous act.

According to the inheritance of the empire, the emperor has no heir, so he naturally has to choose another sage from the imperial family to succeed to the throne, the first emperor has three brothers, and the two princes are qualified to inherit the throne, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military once thought that the new emperor would be selected from the two princes.

It is precisely for this reason that when Emperor Dezong passed the edict to establish the Holy Empress Xiahou as the prince,

The whole court was shocked.

Not all literati and doctors have the backbone and courage of Zhao Yankuo.

The ensuing civil strife in the empire was of course due to the selfish desires of the powerful and powerful in various places, but the improper position of the Holy Queen was a powerful reason for the cavalry of the princes from all walks of life, and it was the soldiers and horses from all walks of life led by Murong in southern Xinjiang back then, in the eyes of scholars, they were not rebels, but loyal ministers of the Tang Empire.

Now Li Tuo took out the double dragon jade pendant and claimed to be the bloodline of the first emperor, once this matter spreads all over the world, then the empire will usher in new turmoil.

But in Kyoto, no one can deny the power of the Holy Empress Xiahou in Kyoto, when Emperor Dezong lingered on the sickbed in the last few years, the courtiers from the beginning of the opposition to the Holy Queen's governance, to the final acquiescence to the Holy Queen's monopoly of power, this process is a process of the embodiment of the Holy Queen's power.

Using the power in their hands to govern on behalf of the emperor, the courtiers may still be able to bear it, and when the edict of succession is issued, Zhao Yankuo and other courtiers can no longer continue to be silent.

The pen and the gun are the two most powerful weapons of the empire, but when these two weapons are-for-tat, the pen is vulnerable, and the strong and domineering gun firmly holds Kyoto, and after the Holy Queen ascends the throne, the first thing is to throw the pen that has not obeyed the call into the fire and replace it with a better one.

Li Huo was very calm, put away the jade pendant, and said: "I don't know if the general ever remembers that twenty-six years ago, the first emperor once patrolled the border and came to Xiling. ”

"There's this." Before the general could speak, an old man not far away said loudly: "It was the sixth year of Dezong Changhe, the first emperor inspected Xiling, and there was almost nothing that the people of Xiling did not know. That year, the Veda was still friendly with us, and the Veda Khan led the tribal chiefs to come to Xiling to meet the first emperor, at that time I was in the prime of life, and I saw the first emperor's team with my own eyes, which was really majestic and ......! He sighed and said, "In a blink of an eye, it's been almost thirty years." ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, many people around him sighed.

At least in legal theory, if Li Tuo is really the prince born to the first emperor, then he is far more qualified to inherit the throne than today's saints, and pull the saint down from the dragon chair and restore Li Tang Jiangshan, which is something that many people think in their hearts but dare not say.

The general is in a difficult situation, but at this moment he does not care about his own safety at all.

At least for the moment, no matter whether Li Huo's identity is true or false, he must not be recognized as the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

But Emperor Dezong chose Xiling, he was the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty to set foot on the land of Xiling, the first was Emperor Wuzong who conquered Xiling.

The Emperor toured the west, to the west

Mausoleum, naturally, is a big deal.

The general naturally remembered the events of the first emperor's western tour.

Twenty-six years ago, Xiling was completely under the control of the empire, and Emperor Dezong at that time was in the prime of life, although he was frail, but he followed the example of the emperor's successive generations and left Beijing to patrol the border.

The bitter cold land of Xiling is far away, and the emperor patrols the border, often only going to the north.

After Li Huo's words were finished, there was a dead silence in the audience.

The first emperor was amorous by nature, and this matter is not a secret, perhaps because of the amorous nature, his body will be weak in his prime.

The emperor toured the west, although he was followed by concubines, but it was not surprising that he had a dewy marriage in Xiling.

Many of the people present were still in their prime, or even teenagers at that time, and at this time, when they recalled the grand occasion of Dezong's western tour, they all sighed in their hearts.

When Dezong stayed in Xiling for more than a month, the general was only a low-level general in the Duhu Army, and when Dezong inspected the Duhu Army, the general saw Long Yan for the first time.

"My mother was blessed by the emperor at that time." Li Huo said: "After the first emperor was favored, he also wanted to take his mother back to Beijing, but the people in the countryside of his mother were unwilling to stay away from his hometown, and he was more worried that he would not understand the rules after entering Beijing, so he begged the first emperor to stay in Xiling." The first emperor was generous and did not embarrass his mother, so his mother did not follow now. But the first emperor had love for his mother, and rewarded the double dragon jade pendant, the mother did not know the value of the double dragon jade pendant at that time, and only thought that the first emperor left a token to remember, so he accepted the first emperor last time, and the jade pendant shoelace was on the body for the rest of his life. ”

"Since Lingtang gave birth to you, why didn't you make it clear to the imperial court?" Yao Mubai was silent for a moment, and finally asked, "If you are really the bloodline of the First Emperor, you should play." ”

Li Huo smiled faintly and said, "Although my mother was born in the countryside, she is not without knowledge. If I tell the government that I can prove my identity with the double dragon jade pendant, the government will naturally report to Kyoto immediately, and the first emperor will naturally send someone to take our mother and son back to the palace. But my mother knew that if we entered the palace, we would inevitably be despised by others, the Houmen was as deep as the sea, and the inner garden of the palace was even more unfathomable. If the first emperor treats our mother and son well, the other concubines in the harem will be jealous when they see it, and our mother and son don't know how to die. He sighed: "Compared with the palace, staying in Xiling to live an ordinary life, on the contrary, it is more peaceful, and my mother will naturally not inform outsiders of my identity for my safety." ”

"Where is Lingtang now?" Yao Mubai asked

Moreover, Li Huo's words explained the origin of the Shuanglong jade pendant very well.

The jade pendant that the emperor carried, in addition to the emperor's reward, of course, could not be owned by people, and the Shuanglong jade pendant was extraordinary, and the emperor naturally would not easily reward others, but if there was a dewy marriage with Li Huo's mother, he was in love and rewarded the Shuanglong jade pendant as a token, it was also very possible.

Li Huo's beard was thick and he looked to be in his thirties, but now it seems that his actual age is only twenty-five or sixteen years old.

"He died eleven years ago." Li Huo said: "Until my mother died, I never knew who my father was, and my mother never mentioned it. Before she left, she finally told me the truth, after all, she didn't want me to know who her father was. My mother also instructed that even if I knew my identity, I should stay in Xiling honestly, don't have other thoughts, and live a peaceful life. Speaking of this, Li Huo's voice was slightly choked.

The general didn't speak, and finally spoke: "The Shuanglong jade pendant is indeed a royal thing, but it can't prove that it must have been given to your mother by the first emperor, and it is not yet known whether the jade pendant belongs to you." His eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "Don't talk about anything else, since Lingtang told you not to have other thoughts, why did you have an incident today?" Isn't that against the teachings of the mother? ”
