Chapter 298: His Highness is dead
This king is also His Majesty's son.n∈
This sentence was almost Li Dan’s last life-saving straw.
That’s right, you, Qin Shaoyou, said so much, and the truth is really tenable, reasonable, and it’s simply impeccable.
But don’t forget that you, Mr. Qin, have talked so much, but essentially, they ignore a fatal problem.
Since Your Majesty is arranging the retreat for the Wu family and your son-in-law, it is nothing wrong for Your Majesty to have this intention. But I, Li Dan, is also Your Majesty's son, how could Your Majesty sacrifice his son and put him to death because of his relatives and daughter?
Li Dan stared at Qin Shaoyou with red eyes, panting heavily.
At this time, someone poured tea. Qin Shaoyou smiled and didn't say anything. When the tea-given person stepped down, he took a sip of fragrant tea and couldn't help but say, "The tea in the palace may be no different from that outside, but only in this situation, it is always a pleasure to eat tea. Why don't your Highness, the King of Xiang?"
Li Dan raised the teacup hideously and threw the teacup to the ground.
The hot tea splashed all over the floor.
Seeing this, the warriors standing beside him wanted to draw their swords, but Qin Shaoyou stretched out his hand to stop them, and still looked at Li Dan with a smile: "Your Highness, there are some things that you don't want to tell me, but in fact... Your Highness has a chance to have such tea again." He looked full of regret for Li Dan, and then said: "Your Highness is your Majesty's son, but don't you know what your Majesty has done?"
Li Dan's body shook and he looked at Qin Shaoyou incredibly.
Qin Shaoyou said lightly: "Do you know why Lai Junchen is trusted by His Majesty on weekdays, but why did he collapse?"
Li Dan couldn't help but say, "What the hell are you talking about?"
Qin Shaoyou ignored him, but said slowly: "Lai Junchen criticized His Highness the Prime Minister that day, and wanted to use this to get close to His Highness the Crown Prince. He is the Censor. Unfortunately, he specially collected information about other people's rebellion. So why did he firmly choose to stand on the side of the prince instead of the Prime Minister?"
Li Dan was stunned for a moment, but he still didn't understand the cause and effect relationship.
Qin Shaoyou sighed quietly: "Lai Junchen is a favorite minister... What is a favorite minister? He always understands what Your Majesty means. He is also a censor at the same time. So let's guess. How could Your Majesty be indifferent? According to the past situation, it should be for the censor to investigate it secretly. Lai Junchen is deeply trusted. This mission naturally falls on him. This person may be a mess elsewhere, but this rebellion is very exciting. I guess he will have a clue soon. For example, behind Li Longji, the King of Linzi, I am afraid that His Highness, the Prime Minister, has also put a lot of effort. Lai Junchen immediately informed Your Majesty immediately, but Your Majesty did not show any expression, because at this time, Your Majesty needs to use Your Majesty."
"Lai Junchen thought that he would be quite proud of his great contribution this time, but who knew that His Majesty did not show any expression and soon summoned His Highness to the capital again. He asked about his well-being and even let His Highness move into Changle Palace. Now, Lai Junchen was stunned. Just when the civil and military officials in the court were confused, the only person who knew the inside story was probably Lai Junchen. When others were worried about whether His Highness would compete with His Highness for the crown prince for the throne, Lai Junchen knew that this was impossible because of the rebellion involved in His Highness. If it were the past
His Majesty showed a little glance, and Lai Junchen naturally followed with all his steps. I just said that he is a favorite minister. The way to survive is to be a human roundworm. Lai Junchen is your Majesty's roundworm. If he didn't know any inside story, he would have written a letter to persuade His Highness Prince of the Prime Minister to be the crown prince, but he did not. He chose Li Xian. The reason why he chose this was because he knew that His Highness Prince of the Prime Minister did not have a chance, and the reason why he did not have a chance was just because... His Highness Prince of the Prime Minister had made an absolutely unforgivable fault..."
"Your Majesty finally exiled him. Does Your Highness know why? Because he knows too much!"
Li Dan's body shook, and his face became deeper. After Li Longji's failure, he was indeed worried for a while, but after so long there was no movement. After that, His Majesty asked him about his well-being. He had long forgotten to clean up some of the past. Now, Qin Shaoyou has revealed that Li Dan was speechless.
Qin Shaoyou smiled coldly and said, "Since your highness has done those things, how could your Majesty not know? If you really want to investigate, you are afraid that you will not be able to find out anything? And does Your Highness really think that because your Highness is your Majesty's son, your Majesty can live without any blame? You are wrong. When you are involved in that change of the gate, you are already dead in Your Majesty's heart. Your Majesty now has only one son, that is Your Majesty's prince, and Your Majesty now has only one daughter, that is Qin's wife, Your Majesty Prince. Your Majesty is just a chess piece for Your Majesty, and for me and the Wu family, it is very unfortunate that Your Highness is the stepping stone for our success."
When talking about stepping stones, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but chuckled. He drank all the tea in the teacup, looked at Li Dan who was already in despair, and then sighed and said, "Actually... I have always wanted to say the truth. Your Majesty in the past was heartless. Finally, he was old and had a little heart and began to consider his relatives and children. But Your Highness seemed to have forgotten a truth. Some things should not be robbed, and they were not yours, so they could not force them. Now, Your Highness should take care of themselves. Don't worry, Your Highness is generous... Of course, he won't kill his brother, but..." Qin Shaoyou pursed his lips and said lightly: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you don't want to see the light of heaven again in this life. Qin said goodbye, Your Highness doesn't have to send him farewell."
Qin Shaoyou had already grown up, and he looked at Li Dan who was sitting in slump and turned around and left.
When they reached the palace gate, a team of warriors rushed in with Qin Shaoyou.
Li Dan's roar came from behind: "Qin Shaoyou, don't be proud, being with you is like being with a tiger. Do you think... if you are proud today, you will have a good end tomorrow?"
Qin Shaoyou stopped, and he looked back at Li Dan, and couldn't help laughing: "This is your highness, your highness is wrong again. Your Highness's fault is not actually your highness's stupidity. The reason why your Highness has today is... Your Highness relies on bloodliness and bloodliness. Although it gives your Highness endless wealth and a lot of capital, it gives your Highness the right to play such a game, but your Highness seems to have forgotten that the Heavenly Family is ruthless. Your Highness succeeds because of this sentence and defeats because of this sentence. And I..." Qin Shaoyou deliberately paused here: "I am different, my capital is - strength!"
Qin Shaoyou did not go to see Li Dan's unwilling and resentful face again, and he walked out of Changle Palace.
The warrior behind him shouted: "Prince Li Dan, you provoke Your Majesty and the Crown Prince, make trouble and make ill-conspiracy. Today we are ordered to capture it. Take it down quickly. I will bind Ziwei Palace immediately and wait for His Majesty to punish you."

Under the night, it is particularly noisy.
I heard that the ministers led by Cui Xu had already gone to see Li Xian on the other side of Longmen Palace, and immediately surrounded Li Xian and came straight to Luoyang Palace.
I also heard that the defeated Li Duozha had organized troops to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at some point.
I also heard that the people of the Wu family have come out in full swing, just to prevent accidents.
The guards and armies in the palace occasionally attacked each other, and the reasons for attack were ridiculous, probably because everyone accused each other of being Li Dan's gangsters.
This is an extraordinary night, because anyone knows that in the next ten or twenty years, whether to eat delicious food or eat braised vegetables, it only depends on tonight. Whether to be a hero of the dragon or a gangster who will be liquidated as a traitor in the future, it is only in this moment.
The Great Zhou Dynasty seemed to be about to come to an end, but this Great Zhou Dynasty, which was born out of nowhere and was once glorious, had good and bad. The advantage is that it gave many poor families a level of advancement, and it severely curbed the arbitrary trend of aristocratic families and officials. This was an era when the clans were still scared, and it was also an era when a very few people changed their destiny. Of course... the sequelae were inevitable, and everyone was already afraid. The appearance of cruel officials made everyone feel scared and their hair stood up. Therefore, there were no loyal ministers like Wei Zheng in the world, and more were a group of people who swayed with the wind.
Qin Shaoyou had arrived at Ziwei Palace surrounded by guards.
Looking at this familiar palace, Qin Shaoyou still felt a little unspeakable fear.
When he was holding his wisdom bead and told Li Dan in a pleasant way, Qin Shaoyou was confident, but did he really understand Wu Zetian's thoughts? Was her intentional indulging in the future or a part of her plan? Qin Shaoyou did not hesitate. He held back his guards and walked alone, and immediately asked someone to inform him.
The shocked and suspicious eunuch saw Qin Shaoyou coming alone, but he did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly ran away.
Qin Shaoyou looked up and looked at the brilliant lights inside and outside the Ziwei Palace. The Ziwei Palace in the cold wind was still shining with brilliance.
