Cuiwei Palace is a plain, Princess Pingyang rode to the palace gate, looking at the white in front of her but couldn't help but have a sour nose, although she knew the news of Li Shimin's illness a few days ago, but Li Shimin's health has not been very good during this time, so she didn't care, but last night, she suddenly received the news that Li Shimin was seriously ill and dying, which made her panic all of a sudden.

Because of the incident of Xuanwumen, Princess Pingyang has never forgiven Li Shimin's younger brother, and even the two sisters and brothers have not met for many years, even if Li Shimin went to Li Xiu's house in person, she also avoided it, which made Li Shimin very helpless, and later gradually died of this heart.

However, although Princess Pingyang did not forgive Li Shimin, she was Li Shimin's sister after all, and the two grew up together since childhood, and their relationship was also very strong, of course, it was the deep relationship that made Princess Pingyang unable to forgive him anyway after Li Shimin killed their eldest brother Li Jiancheng, so that the two sisters and brothers had no contact for nearly 30 years.

However, as the so-called hatred is deep, love is deep, although Princess Pingyang hates Li Shimin's younger brother, she actually cares about him very much in her heart, so when she learned that he was critically ill, the whole person was also like a lightning strike, and even wanted to come to see Li Shimin for the last time, but just when she wanted to leave, she thought of her eldest brother Li Jiancheng, who died tragically in the hands of Li Shimin, which made her hesitate a little, and as a result, in this hesitation, she was delayed until Li Shimin's death.

And when Princess Pingyang heard the news of Li Shimin's death, she finally couldn't hold back anymore, and immediately asked people to prepare horses and gallop to Cuiwei Palace, but when she saw the Cuiwei Palace in front of her, her tears couldn't help but gush out.

Although she knew that Li Shimin had died, Princess Pingyang still decided to see him, so she was about to go in, but the guards guarding the door didn't know her, so she immediately stopped her and said: "Forbidden place in the palace, stop!" ”

"Get out of the way, I'm going to visit my brother!" Princess Pingyang was immersed in grief at this time, and she also ordered coldly at the moment, she came alone, and all the guards were left behind by her, and no one followed at this time, and naturally no one could prove her identity.

The guards guarding the palace gate were also stunned when they heard this, thinking that this is Cuiwei Palace, how could anyone come here to find his younger brother? However, although they didn't know Princess Pingyang, they also saw that this lady was graceful and definitely not an ordinary woman, so they didn't dare to be presumptuous, and just wanted to persuade each other to leave.

But at this moment, I suddenly saw an old chamberlain walking out of the palace gate, and when he saw Princess Pingyang, he immediately rushed forward excitedly and saluted: "Slave maid see Her Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

Princess Pingyang was stunned at first when she saw this old chamberlain, feeling that the other party was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember the other party's name, so she frowned and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"The slave Zhao Qin, who is also the old man of Tiance Mansion, once followed His Majesty to see the princess, and before His Majesty died, he once ordered the slave and maid to stay in front of the palace gate, saying that the princess might come!" I saw that this old chamberlain Zhao Qin saluted Princess Pingyang again, and when he said the end, his eyes couldn't help but be a little red.

He ...... Did he guess I was coming? Princess Pingyang couldn't help but cry again when she heard Zhao Qin's answer, she thought that she had refused to meet Li Shimin in the past thirty years, and he should have given up, but she didn't expect that she would still remember herself at the end, and even guessed that she would come.

"Your Majesty was sober for a while yesterday afternoon, but did not summon anyone, but forced himself to write a letter to the princess, and then told the slave maid that if the princess comes, he will give you this letter, and let the slave and maid wait for the princess at the palace gate!" I saw Zhao Qin speak again at this time.

"Lead the way, take me to meet the third brother!" Princess Pingyang commanded again at the moment, after so many years, she finally called out the title of "third brother" again.

Zhao Qin hurriedly agreed, and then personally led Princess Pingyang into Cuiwei Palace, the guards guarding the door finally knew the identity of Princess Pingyang at this time, and they all bowed down at the moment, and their expressions were extremely respectful, after all, the lady in front of her was not only Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, but also a female general with outstanding military achievements, even after so many years, the prestige of Princess Pingyang is still circulating in the army.

At the moment, Princess Pingyang passed through the two palaces in front, and finally came to Li Shimin's dormitory Hanfeng Palace, Li Shimin died here yesterday, and the body had not yet been transported to the Taiji Palace's Soul Palace, so when Princess Pingyang came here, she also saw Li Shimin lying on the bed at a glance.

I saw that Li Shimin was wearing the emperor's crown at this time, but his face was gray, his cheeks were deeply sunken, and although his hair and beard were combed very neatly, they were snow-white, and he looked like an old man of seventy or eighty years old, but Li Shimin's real age was less than sixty years old.

"Third brother~" Seeing Li Shimin's remains, Princess Pingyang finally couldn't help crying, walked a few steps quickly to Li Shimin's bed, reached out to hold his cold palm and cried, after all, the sister and brother are deeply affectionate, even if there were many grievances before, they disappeared with Li Shimin's death.

Zhao Qin is the old man next to Li Shimin, and he is also one of the most powerful eunuchs in the inner palace, but even so, he actually has no right to get close to Li Shimin's body, but he was instructed by Li Shimin in advance to bring Princess Pingyang in.

After a long while, Princess Pingyang finally stopped crying, and immediately turned her head to Zhao Qin and said, "Where is the letter from the third brother?" ”

"It's in the jade box next to His Majesty's pillow!" Zhao Qin pointed to Li Shimin's bedside at this time.

Princess Pingyang turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw a jade box, and immediately reached out to open it, revealing a letter inside, which read "The third sister personally opened" The four big characters, but although the handwriting is Li Shimin's handwriting, the font is somewhat deformed, which makes Princess Pingyang, who is proficient in calligraphy, also see at a glance that Li Shimin's body is extremely weak when writing these words, and even holding the pen has become very difficult.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the envelope, Princess Pingyang's eyes became blurred again, and after a while, she wiped away her tears, and just wanted to open the letter, but suddenly saw Li Xiu walking in from outside the palace, it turned out that he returned home and knew that Princess Pingyang was here, so he also rushed immediately, but just saw Princess Pingyang was about to open the letter.
