[Chapter 20: How to Defeat the Pride of the Heavens] (1)

Xiao Jiangyuan is a man?!

Li Longye's eyes were about to fall, and he quietly retreated while holding back, so that he was not noticed.

Li Longji was stunned when he heard this, squinted and thought for a while, before he thought of a transparent white - this physical examination was what she had planned from the beginning, and even being taken away by Aya was in her plan!

first found Yao Yuanchong to be open and honest, and then calculated Song Jing through Yao Yuanchong, and told the body examination through Song Jing's mouth, and at the same time discussed it with both of them, and the result of the body examination could only be one: she was a man.

They don't need to verify it at all, as long as it is clear, only Xiao Jiangyuan is a man, his aunt and even Yu Aya will not succeed, and Datang can be stable, which is enough.

The candidate on the aunt's side was not in their plans, but no matter who the aunt released, as long as they were not sure of persuasion, they would refuse for various reasons, and his cousin came at the right time. His cousin has always said that he will never be biased, but will only tell the truth, unless he is the same as Yao Yuanchong and Song Jing, for the sake of Datang.

As for this fire, although it was also Ah Yuan's fault, it was by no means the final plan. She had never wanted to die, so there was that hole in the house, and she did it just to add fuel to the situation and make it the way it was.

She had already calculated it......

Although Li Longji had a sad posture of not being happy, sad or angry on the surface, as if it was nothing to do with himself, his heart cooled down.

"Impossible!" Princess Taiping said angrily, even though she was about to rush into the house, she was stopped by Xue Chongjian.

"Ah Niang, Xiao Neishou is really a man!"

"Even you lied to me?!" Princess Taiping immediately slapped her, but her son didn't let go of his hand, and couldn't help sneering, "Since she really is, why don't you dare to let me go in and have a look?" ”

"The body of the slave eunuch is ugly, how dare you stain the eyes of the princess of Zhenguo?" Xiao Jiangyuan had already dressed at this time and walked out slowly.

Song Jing said: "Could it be that the princess of Zhenguo doesn't even believe in her own son?" ”

If Yao Yuanchong said this, Princess Taiping would be able to go back, after all, Yao Yuanchong was more or less intersecting with Xiao Jiangyuan, but Song Jing didn't have it, and even because of the eunuch's interference in politics, he still had some disagreements with Xiao Jiangyuan, and he had been an official for many years, and his reputation for integrity spread far and wide, and no one in the ministers believed it, even Xue Chongjian on her side didn't believe it, and he wouldn't believe Song Jing.

Princess Taiping glanced at Yao Yuanchong and Song Jing coldly, and said, "I don't believe anyone now, I only believe in my own eyes!" As he spoke, he was about to break free from Xue Chongjian's obstruction and head towards Xiao Jiangyuan, when he heard Li Dan say angrily: "Enough! ”

The impact of this incident on Li Dan is quite large. In fact, that day, he doubted Xiao Jiangyuan's identity, and thought of a string of conspiracies and ambitions, he knew in his heart that what he thought was too unbelievable, and it was difficult to make the trip. It was his sister who told him that Xiao Jiangyuan was indeed a woman, and those things could happen, he believed her, but she lied to him!

It's just that she used him to stabilize her position of power, she actually used his bias towards Li Chengqi and his estrangement from Li Longji to stir up trouble in the court, and finally led all the suspicions to herself?

Of course, he prefers Li Chengji to be the crown prince, but he also knows that unless Li Longji is really guilty, everything can only be thought about. He didn't have too many extravagant hopes, he just wanted his sons to be safe. He did suspect Li Longji's so-called wolf ambition, and it was not until today that he discovered that the one who really had wolf ambition was his sister who resembled A-Niang!

Turning his eyes to see Li Longji's expression at the moment, Li Dan was a little ashamed, thinking that in these days, he has been misunderstood by himself and burdened by rumors, as he said, how could the prince in the past and present have been so wronged? What Li Chengqi said to himself was still in his ears, and Li Dan promised to get to know his third son again, but he never really did it.

Then take this opportunity to compensate him.

Compensating Li Longji does not mean hurting his sister. After all, in this world, he only has this one mother left, although she has some problems doing things, but after all, she has also considered for him, and replaced Li Longji with Li Chengqi, this is his idea, things have come to this point, he is not without a little responsibility, especially now that the ministers are clearly suspicious of him, if he really punishes his sister, I am afraid that everyone will think that his sister is his scapegoat.

So, Li Dan said: "Since it has been revealed, this matter will end here." It's so late, everyone Aiqing should go back to duty first, Yao Xianggong and Song Xianggong can stay in the palace for one night. As for the Taiping...... You can go back to the princess's mansion tomorrow. ”

…… That's it?

The ministers were dumbfounded. Not to mention justifying Xiao Jiangyuan's name, at least he should comfort the prince, and by the way, show that he will definitely not abandon the prince's attitude easily, right?

Song Jing raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Qi Sage, Fang Cai Ah Chang said about the saint and the prince, but he didn't mention the princess of Zhenguo, don't you know that she is deliberately protecting her real master?" ”

It means that the palace fire is not a trivial matter, even if Xiao Jiangyuan's identity has been proven, all the so-called threats to the East Palace will be self-defeating, but tonight's fire cannot be finished with all the words.

Li Longji also stood up at this time, knelt on his knees, and bowed: "Enlightened saint, I think that the reason why there is such a fire tonight may not be man-made, but the will of heaven. Providence warned, saying that the son is not a grandson or a long, and he is not worthy of being this prince, so since the son entered the East Palace, there have been many uneasiness among the people in the court, and there are many rumors and edicts...... Everything is the fault of the son, and I hope that the saint will condemn the sin and abandon the son as a concubine! ”

After saying it earnestly, there was a vague choked throat, and the ministers listened to it, quite unbearable. Li Dan then remembered what he had done less, after all, he was used to ignoring this son's feelings on weekdays, and he couldn't change it for a while. He hurriedly said: "Why did San Lang say this? ”

Even if abandoning Li Longji is what he dreams of, it should never be now, and as an emperor, he is still clear about this. Seeing that Li Longji seemed to have a tendency to kneel for a long time, Li Dan hurriedly stepped forward and held Li Longji's arm with both hands: "How could I abandon San Lang?" San Lang has contributed to the country's social service, and is so pure filial piety and righteousness, if I am not sure of you, why did I make you the prince in the first place? ”

Li Longji still insisted on refusing to get up, and tears fell when he bowed his head: "Aya should make the eldest brother the prince, the eldest brother is the eldest son, and he is justified, and there is nothing wrong with it!" ”

How could Li Dan ever see the unbridled and flamboyant Li Longji so frustrated? It seems that he and Taiping have done too much this time, in fact, if you think about it carefully, since San Lang became the prince, let alone make mistakes, how much has he even participated in political affairs? He avoids suspicion everywhere, is cautious, and is the same as always for Da Lang and other brothers, and he can't find anything wrong at all.

Li Dan was a little weak-hearted, and Li Longye also came over to argue, so he had to say: "The princess of Zhenguo has no words and deeds, and she ordered to return to the princess's mansion tomorrow and be grounded for a month." Ah Chang, strangle. Xiao Neishou was wronged tonight, and you will take over the vacant position of the inner servant. After a pause, he finally said, "The prince...... Since I have established you, I will never abolish you easily. Since they all say that you are not a descendant or a long-term concubine, well, since I ascended the throne, I haven't had time to posthumously seal my wife and concubine who died many years ago, and now is the time. Ministry of Rites, draw up the name and summon the soul into the funeral, as soon as the first day passes, I posthumously crown Liu and Dou as queens. ”

Seeing Li Longji raise his head gratefully, looking at him with a gaze full of disbelief, Li Dan forced out a smile that he thought was loving, and helped Li Longji up again. This time Li Longji stood up, and Li Dan sighed: "You and I are my dear father and son, and we must not be like this in the future." I have always been impatient to be the emperor, and in the future, you will have to take on some more political affairs, one is to share my worries, and the other is that if I can't do it anymore one day, I still need you to take it immediately. ”

"Ayeh, why did he say this......" Li Longji's voice was still a little hoarse.

Princess Taiping stood aside, already so angry that she couldn't speak. Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, she did not salute or apologize, turned around and left the court with her head held high.

By the next day, everything in the palace had returned to tranquility, as if the fire and noise of the previous night had been just a bizarre dream.

A piece of news spread rapidly in the market - Xiao Jiangyuan had been examined, proving that he had been a man.

"And now?" The person who asked this bit his tongue himself.

Only then did the people understand that all the previous rumors were false, and someone must have wanted to harm His Royal Highness the Prince, and it was almost the princess of Zhenguo who took the chariot back to the house on that road.

"Isn't the relationship between their aunt and nephew very good?"

"That's a matter of heaven. It's just a pity for me that those lingering love stories turned out to be fake. ”

The people nodded. Rather than cold intrigues, they still prefer to watch talented and beautiful women finally become married.

Because the princess of Zhenguo passed by, the people have avoided it, and the whole road, as long as the place where the princess of Zhenguo passed through the honor guard, must be empty.

Princess Taiping hadn't slept well last night, and had been thinking about what had gone wrong this time. She felt a little unwell, so she took a step, otherwise according to her temperament, it was right to gallop out of the palace on horseback.

After getting up in the morning of this day, she thought about it for a long time, and only now did she squint at Cui Xiang, who was not far away, and said, "Xiao Jiangyuan is a woman, you saw it clearly at that time?" ”

"She's wearing a bib and she's strangled it tightly."

"How do you see that?"

"I ......"

Princess Taiping asked casually, but she didn't expect the problem to really come here: "You...... It can't be that I just saw Xiao Jiangyuan's clothes, right? ”
