Li Shimin raised his hand and motioned to Zhao Nan to take the two of them down quickly, he no longer listened to the explanations of the two, and left with his sleeves brushed up, he didn't want anyone to see his fatigue and thoughts.

Zhao Nan put Yang Huai and Li Chengqian in prison, and after explaining all the matters, he had to leave in a hurry, and the matter of the prince forcing the palace to rebel took him too much time, and he was already anxious at the moment, he wanted to ensure the safety of Tang Changyu, Liuning and Yun Qing, and also found Mingfu and asked her what was going on.

Zhao Nan was just about to leave, but Yang Huai, who was trapped in the cage, stopped: "Wait a minute, I have something very important to ask you." ”

Zhao Nan didn't expect that Yang Huai, who usually looked high, and Yang Huai, who was invincible, was also reduced to a prisoner, and when he begged in a low voice, he temporarily showed his patience, stopped going out in a hurry, and listened to what Yang Huai was going to say next.

Yang Huai looked at Zhao Nan with an almost pleading look, this was the only time in his life that he gave up his dignity, and this would also be the last time: "Please, let me see her again one last time, I want to see Liuning again." ”

When Zhao Nan heard this, a nameless fire was growing in his heart, and he turned to look at Yang Huai, who was clutching the railing of the prison dejectedly, looking forward to himself with almost pleading eyes, Yang Huai had fallen so far, but it could not arouse any sympathy and pity from Zhao Nan at all. Zhao Nan walked up to Yang Huai with heavy footsteps and grabbed Yang Huai's collar.

Zhao Nan looked at Yang Huai's unwavering eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "You still want to see Liuning, what qualifications do you have to see her, aren't you miserable enough to harm her and Changyu,"

A trace of panic flashed in Yang Huai's eyes, and Zhao Nan continued to say angrily: "What are you still pretending to be innocent here, Liu Ning and Tang Changyu are missing on the way back to the Turks, and their lives and deaths are uncertain, isn't it your people who did it, you intercepted and killed the two of them halfway, and sent Concubine Yan Niangniang to trip me, isn't it just for your ridiculous usurpation plan,"

Zhao Nan pushed Yang Huai angrily, Yang Huai staggered, Zhao Nan's words exploded in his ears like thunder, Yang Huai's eyes lost their former light, became sluggish, and whispered in his mouth that it was impossible, impossible.

Zhao Nan snorted coldly and left, he was worried about the safety of Tang Changyu and the three of them, and wanted to deal with everything quickly, and rushed to the Turks, not wanting to waste time here again.

Yang Huai sat paralyzed on the ground, remorseful, he should have expected that a person like Li Junzhi who was harmless on the surface, but was actually ruthless, couldn't do anything, as early as when he said that he had a way to tie Tang Changyu and Liuning, he should have thought that Li Junzhi would kill them all. Yang Huai regretted what he had done, regretted that he was ambitious, it was he who ruined the happiness of his beloved with his own hands, it was he who made Liuning hover on the edge of life and death countless times, it was he who destroyed the pillar of the future of the Tang Dynasty, the prince who was enthusiastic and kind-hearted, and regarded him as a brother in life and death, all the sins came from his obsession that he should not let go, and from the desire he buried in his heart since he was a child.

The more Yang Huai thought about it, the more sad he became, the cold face showed an expression of unprecedented guilt, he thought back to how much blood had been stained on his hands along the way, and the lives of those enemies who were killed were not serious, but Nangong Lin, Liuning, Jingli, Liubin, and Li Chengqian...... These people who once loved themselves and were loved deeply by themselves were all hurt to varying degrees because of themselves, and some even died for him, but it was not worth it.

Yang Huai didn't dare to think about it anymore, and tried to restore his former calm, he tore off a corner of his clothes, and bit his finger without hesitation, blood dripped down drop by drop, Yang Huailong wrote a few big words: Li Jun's mastermind. Then he clenched it tightly into the palm of his hand, knowing that no one would listen to the confession of a death row inmate, so he hoped that the person who collected his body would discover the secret, make his last words public, and reveal the truth to the world.

Yang Huai desperately took out a pill from his arms with his other hand, this is the poison he has been preparing on his body since he crawled out of the pile of dead, he doesn't want to be wiped out of his life without dignity again, even if he wants to die, he wants to be dignified, to be proud, and to take his fate into his own hands.

Yang Huai stared at the small pill pinched between his fingers, swallowed it without hesitation, and it didn't take long for the blackened blood to flow out of his mouth, nose, and eyes, Yang Huai at the last moment of his life, recalled that once, those best days spent on the grassland, when he first saw Liuning, childhood sweetheart, two little guesses, innocent, at that time he and Liuning were still close brother and sister, running freely on the grassland, galloping horses, unscrupulous play, that time was so beautiful, But he couldn't go back, Yang Huai had a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, closed his eyes peacefully, and died quietly in this filthy death row.

The news of Yang Huai's suicide reached Li Shimin's ears, Li Shimin ignored it, he was in Wanyan's bedroom, Wanyan stood behind him, gently rubbing his temples for Li Shimin, Li Shimin was very tired, but he couldn't show his tired appearance in front of others, only Wanyan was here, he could relax a little and get a little comfort.

Li Shimin sighed, Wanyan's eyes lit up, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Li Shimin shook his head tiredly, sighed deeply, patted Wanyan's hand, and let her sit beside him, Li Shimin leaned on Wanyan, and could rest for a short time here alone, so that she could look at herself who was not majestic, which may be his greatest trust in a person.

Wanyan looked at Li Shimin like this, and suddenly felt a little distressed, a little self-blame, since she entered the palace for so long, she has never forgotten her mission, she has never forgotten who sent her into this cage, and who ruined the life of her father and the future of the Turkic steppe.

But in this cold cage, she can only get a trace of warmth from Li Shimin, as a supreme emperor, he gave himself all the warmth and love he could give, so that she could have a solid arm to rely on in this deceitful harem.

Wanyan was suddenly a little confused, she didn't know how she should choose, the road ahead seemed to be more difficult, where should she go.

Wanyan gently stroked Li Shimin's back, trying to give him a little comfort, and asked gently, "Your Majesty, how are you going to deal with this matter?"

"I don't know." Li Shimin said helplessly, "After all, Cheng Qian is the eldest son of me and the queen, killing him, I can't bear it, but if I don't kill him, the waves will be unsettled, and more people will inevitably covet my throne." Li Shimin accumulated, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep in Wanyan's arms.

The news of Yang Huai's suicide in prison reached Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian's face was like ashes in an instant, and he felt that a certain place beating in his heart was extinguished, he instantly gave up the last struggle, felt that he had lost the last hope, he no longer hoped that his father could forgive him, and even he wanted to go to hell with Yang Huai, Li Chengqian committed suicide many times in prison, but he was rescued, and Li Chengqian has been depressed in prison.

Three days later, it was supposed to be the period of Yang Huai's questioning, and it was also the third day of Yang Huai's suicide, Li Chengqian asked the jailer for a jar of wine in prison, and poured a glass for himself and Yang Huai.

After Li Chengqian's simple sacrificial ceremony was over, someone sent a holy decree.

"Fengtian transport, the emperor said, the East Palace is immoral, I feel deep heartache, I want to get rid of it, in order to set an example, but I remember the affection of my flesh and blood, do not impose capital punishment, and abolish Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince, degrade Li Chengqian as the king of Luling, and send it to Qianzhou, Qin this."

"Emperor Xie, long live my emperor, long live long live." Li Chengqian kowtowed and thanked him, and said to his father-in-law who came to deliver the message, "Father-in-law, Chengqian still has one last thing to say, I hope you must bring it for Chengqian, please tell your father, Chengqian knows that he is wrong, Chengqian is grateful for his grace not to kill, before Chengqian was too willful, Chengqian is sorry for him, if there is an afterlife, Chengqian still recognizes him as the revered father." ”

Li Chengqian once again kowtowed reverently in the direction of the palace, as if making a final farewell, Li Chengqian embarked on the road to Qianzhou, and this sentence was brought to Li Shimin, Li Shimin only shook his head slightly, and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Child, may you not be reborn in the emperor's house in the next life." ”

The turmoil in Chang'an came to an end, but Zhao Nan could no longer find any trace of Mingfu, this mysterious woman seemed to have evaporated from the world, Zhao Nan now has too many mysteries in front of him, he has no time to look for it, or he is more concerned about Tang Changyu's side.

Chang'an has just experienced such a turmoil, he is alone, in order to ensure the safety of Chang'an City, Zhao Nan is busy every day in the dark, he really can't distinguish himself to go to the Turks to find the whereabouts of Tang Changyu and the three of them, so he sent his most trusted subordinates to the Turks, and flew pigeons to pass the book, bringing a handwritten letter.

However, Zhao Nan would never have thought that this most trusted subordinate was robbed and killed by the martial arts master sent by Li Junzhi halfway, and the handwritten letter naturally fell into Li Junzhi's hands and was not sent, Li Junzhi's purpose was very simple, he wanted to cut off Li Shimin's right-hand man, let him fight alone, as long as Tang Changyu and Chang'an were blocked, Tang Changyu would definitely seize this opportunity to return to seclusion with Liuning, and from then on he would be isolated from the world and not ask about the world.
