Chapter 984: When the Dust Settles

Bai Song left Xingqing Palace with an incomparably complicated and incomparably heavy heart.

He did not leave behind a witness to that historic moment, and he wanted to leave some room for ambiguity in the history books.

At the end of the ninth year of Zhenguan, just two or three months away, Bai Song seemed to be able to see an answer that was different from the historical records.

Unexpectedly, the facts and the history books coincided.

In the ninth year of Zhenguan, Li Yuan died of illness at the age of seventy. He was called Emperor Taiwu, and the temple was called Gaozu, and he was buried in the Mausoleum. Later, he was appointed as the Emperor of Shenyao and the Great Sage of Great Guangxiao.

If you hadn't experienced it, who would have thought that there were so many untold stories hidden behind a short sentence in the history books?

When leaving Xingqing Palace, Bai Song took a big black cat with him.

Soon after walking out of Xingqing Palace, the big black cat suddenly broke free from Bai Song's arms, and then jumped onto the high wall, the beast glanced at Bai Song, and Bai Song also looked at it.

The sick cat's cloudy eyes suddenly became clear, as if it had regained its spirit, and it screamed and ran away.

Just as the black cat slipped away, someone in the guard team trapped in Xingqing Palace shouted: "Emperor Taizu has died of illness!" ”

……

The news spread quickly.

Bai Song dragged back to the palace, and Princess Runan ran out as soon as possible, and asked with a shocked face: "Grandpa Huang is sick?" ”

Behind Xiang Nan, Shu Wang and Sang Sang were also by his side, and they also cast inquiring glances.

Because everyone knows that Bai Song was in Xingqing Palace just now, compared to those rumors, it must be that the news brought by Bai Song is more accurate.

Bai Song was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible! Princess Runan burst into tears in an instant, among the many princes and grandchildren, Princess Runan had the best and closest relationship with Li Yuan.

Even if he is married to Bai Song and is already a wife, this one will often visit Xingqing Palace.

"Grandpa Huang's body has always been very good, although it has not been as good as before recently, but ...... But not so suddenly, I ...... I'm going to Xingqing Palace. ”

Bai Song grabbed Xiangnan tightly and said seriously: "Grandpa Huang's last words are for me to never go to Xingqing Palace, he doesn't want people to see his last appearance." ”

"Why? Why exactly? This is not an illness, the imperial grandfather will not die! If you really get sick, you won't be able to save it. ”

Xiang Nan is very smart, just by virtue of the news, Bai Song can conclude in Xingqing Palace that how the emperor's grandfather died is true, but the death of illness is not credible!

Bai Song frowned slightly, was silent for a while, and said to Xiang Nan, "Let's go back to the room and talk slowly." ”

After getting this sentence, Xiang Nan was much more stable, she didn't think that the Xiang Guild would tell her hidden feelings, but she didn't expect the Xiang Guild to be so simple.

Bai Song was also tired, and stayed in the house with Xiang Nan for a period of time, and it was already dark.

The first snow of the year fell that night, and when I woke up, Chang'an was dyed white, covering everything that happened in the previous two days, and restoring the poetry and picturesqueness of this thousand-year-old city.

It's just that when he looked at Fengyue again this year, Bai Songzhong couldn't help but think that there were heroic blood and tears hidden behind this wind and snow.

When the six flying flowers enter the house, sit and watch the green bamboo turn into Qiongzhi......

At this time, Bai Song no longer had the heart to talk about these flying snow.

Xiang Nan woke up and sat on the bed in a daze.

Remembering everything she had said last night, she preferred to believe it was a dream.

But to the south it is clear that everything is real and brutal.

The high father and queen mother also have times when they leak their fangs and claws, and when they really feel threatened, no one, no matter what.

In this world, even the love of flesh and blood can be dissipated without dissipation, what else is there to believe in the sky?

This question made Xiang Nan a little distressed, so much so that she was a little confused.

The cold wind of early winter did not arouse the spirit of the south, and looking at the sick and beautiful woman who had become a frosted eggplant overnight, Bai Song was really distressed to see it.

"What do you think?" Bai Song sat back on the edge of the bed.

Li Xiangnan shook his head: "No...... Nothing ......."

"It's nothing, I wouldn't have told you this if I had known you were like this."

Li Xiangnan looked at Bai Song in a daze: "Xianggong, if it were you, what would you do?" Will you ......"

Bai Song pinched Xiang Nan's face and said with a smile: "What question are you asking?" It's a big rebellion, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth, what? Do you still want your father-in-law to be emperor? ”

"Forehead ......"

"What does the royal affair have to do with us? You're not a princess anymore, don't think you still have royal blood. We are ordinary people, and one day we will find a place far away from the mountains and live a carefree life. ”

"Xianggong, what do you mean ......?"

"Don't think about things that are so far away, in short, we are a family, speaking a family, in the palace, you will have less contact in the future."

Xiang Nan nodded, her heart had changed slightly, at least she had a new sense of reverence for the royal family.

And when Bai Song said this, there was also a change in the dark.

As Bai Song said, one day he will find a carefree place.

Even Bai Song was frightened by the struggle for power between the royal families, if there is really one day when Chang'an can't tolerate him, he will have to leave a way out, and Li Shimin will never be able to help his own retreat.

The once most simple and simple vision was put back on the agenda by Bai Song.

News came from the palace that the emperor had woken up and wanted Bai Song to go to the palace.

Bai Song hurriedly went to the palace, and the first news he got was that Li Shimin asked Bai Song to preside over the funeral rites of Emperor Taizu.

Then the second news was that Li Changsheng, the prince of the New Tang Dynasty, was killed outside Chang'an City.

This news is not surprising to Bai Song, this should be the handiwork of the queen mother and the eldest grandson Wuji.

Now that the dust has finally settled, the remaining series of details are not so important.

At least that's what Bai Song thinks.

Li Shimin was still lying on the bed, but his spirit had already risen, although he looked a little sad on the surface, but the doctor's eyes would not be wrong, and Li Shimin's recovery was very good.

Li Shimin also gave Bai Song a will, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty should be rewarded, and the specific details of rewards and punishments were handed over to Bai Song to formulate, and then the three sons of the New Tang Dynasty were still among the people, and Bai Song wanted to use his relationship with the rivers and lakes to search.

This third prince is the last remnant, as long as he is swept away, there will be no worries.

Bai Song wrote down all the orders, he has become obedient, he will do whatever the emperor says, as long as he does not touch his bottom line, he is willing to be an obedient courtier.

And when Bai Song was about to retreat, a person appeared in the dormitory, which instantly attracted Bai Song's attention.

The other party is a Dongying person, and he has an extremely dangerous aura.

"Donghuang Pavilion?"
