It didn't matter what Li Dan called his sister.
Little did he know that his "sister" call made Wei Tuan'er kneel on the ground.
"Your Highness! There is a difference between king and minister, not to mention that the little girl is a slave, how can she accept the honorific title..."
Li Dan glanced behind him and said nonchalantly: "Oh, the Imperial Master is not here. Where did all these rules come from? Come on, what did you get?"
Wei Tuan'er slowly stood up, twitching the corners of his mouth with a forced smile and offering the tray with both hands.
Li Dan stepped forward to take a look and sniffed: "Soup? What kind of soup is this?"
Wei Tuan'er replied: "Your Majesty said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in good health due to the cold spring breeze and needs to take more nourishment. This is the century-old ginseng chicken soup that His Majesty specially ordered the imperial chef to cook all night."
Li Dan sighed inwardly. He took a carriage ride with his mother and tightened his clothes. Did she remember it? What a pity. There should have been two pieces of meat. Just drinking soup is not enough...
When he picked up the bowl and was about to drink, Yuan Tiangang's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Your Highness, please wait."
"Uh..." Li Dan froze, wondering that the Imperial Master came back too quickly.
Yuan Tiangang slowly walked towards the two of them, his eyes under the mask staring at Wei Tuan'er.
Wei Tuan'er's throat rolled, and he didn't dare to look at Yuan Tiangang, so he could only lower his head.
Li Dan sighed, picked up the bowl and handed it to Yuan Tiangang.
Yuan Tiangang sniffed and nodded slowly after a moment. Li Dan also raised his head and drank it in several sips.
"Okay, thank you very much."
"No, no, no, I don't dare to take it seriously..." Wei Tuan'er was flattered and quickly took the empty bowl and left.
"Tsk~~ Imperial Master, look at how scared you are of this little girl."
Yuan Tiangang said calmly: "Luoyang is not safe. Your Highness, we'd better return as soon as possible."
"Okay, everything you say is right, let's go~~"
Yuan Tiangang looked at Li Dan who looked indifferent and shook his head.
It's a good thing not to have the airs of an emperor or a prince, but you can't be on guard against anyone, otherwise, if he wasn't around, you wouldn't know how Li Dan died.
He believed that Li Dan understood these things, but he just wouldn't change them.
Yuan Tiangang murmured: "Should we use something to warn His Highness..."
Suddenly, he was slightly startled.
【Either fight! Or waste it! Where did he come from so many troublesome and troublesome things to warn him everywhere! ? 】
Li Yunxiao's voice seemed to ring in his ears, making Yuan Tiangang smile helplessly and quickly follow him.
....
Time flies by, and in a blink of an eye, autumn is already here.
At this time, Chang'an was still the same, and nothing happened for several months.
Something happened in Luoyang that made it difficult for the civil and military ministers to talk about it.
That was Li Yuan's daughter, Princess Qianjin. In order to seek wealth, she actually wanted to recognize Wu Zhao as her godmother...
Wu Zhao immediately ordered to give her a title.
【Strange Woman】
This person is much older than her, can she say this?
In the end, Wu Zhao suppressed the matter, and then arranged a residence for her in Chang'an so that she could rest in peace.
In the final analysis, Princess Qianjin is too good at flattering.
Although Wu Zhao didn't use the "medicine" he gave her initially, she remembered the favor.
When she heard that it was the place where Chang'an settled, Princess Qianjin said it was normal, because she originally had a mansion in Chang'an, but how could she not hear that Wu Zhao was driving her away?
In the end, this incident was ridiculously spread in the court, and finally nothing happened.
Then another month passed, and another big event came out of the court, a big event that shocked the entire Tang Dynasty!
Wu Zhao issued a self-incriminating edict, wrote down many of his crimes, and asked Di Renjie to fully appeal for many unjust cases!
Of course, most of these crimes have nothing to do with the people, but the people like to hear and see this.
After that, it is to purge the government and the opposition, introduce more virtuous people, and suppress the noble families!
Since ancient times, the noble families of the past dynasties have been like a group. For example, the old Li family was the leader who emerged from it and overthrew the imperial court.
In the civil and military examinations in recent years, more than 90% of the family members have been summarized. If they have real power, it is fine, but who knows what is hidden in it?
Compared with suppressing the family members, Wu Zhao's sinner edict was not disliked by others, but gained higher public support. Even many civil and military ministers changed their views on Wu Zhao.
Many people in the court knew very well that Wu Zhao's reign was nothing more than fulfilling the prophecy. When he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, it was true that nectar fell from the sky, colorful clouds accompanied the phoenix and hundreds of birds worshiped the phoenix. They saw it with their own eyes.
At first, they all thought that Wu Zhao was going through the motions, and they returned it not long after.
But now Li Dan's appearance of not mentioning anything made them unsure.
It was not like there were no suggestions during this period, but they were all rejected by Li Dan, claiming that the time had not come yet and his illness was not cured, so why be anxious?
With the punishment of corrupt officials and the suppression of aristocratic families to purge the government and the public, those ministers became less talkative.
But when they were happy, one of them couldn't be happy anymore.
That is Wu Chengsi!
Now there is a person in his courtyard named Li Xiuyun.
Li Xiuyun is not related to the Li Tang clan. He was originally from Chengji, Longxi, and is now a fifth-rank official. For this convenience, he has made a lot of profits for his family.
Originally, they were very powerful. They wanted money and people. Even when Li Shimin was in power, they had to think carefully about it.
But in the past hundred years, Li Yunxiao's shops have spread all over the world, and have long since closed down most of the commercial channels. In addition, many people who resisted died unexpectedly, even if they spent a lot of money to hire the great emperor, they could not stop him. On the surface, they stopped resisting.
Everyone knows that Li Yunxiao wants to dominate the family. If he is determined to become emperor on his own, it is easy to say that they, a group of aristocratic family members, can drink soup, flatter a few words, and simply work as an official.
But in their eyes, Li Yunxiao was not a person. He had power and money, and he didn't like fame. He even dared to kidnap the emperor in front of the people's imperial army. Is there anything he couldn't do?
In this way, after so many years, because Li Yunxiao dominates the world's rich and powerful families, they have never expanded, but have been shrinking.
Now we are indeed living better than those ordinary people and even some officials, but as time goes by, I am afraid it will only become a memory.
The Li Xiuyun who came today was because he had made mistakes before. Many years ago, he was severely punished for corruption.
But now the punishment of corrupt officials is different. Wu Zhao's intention is very clear, he wants to kill them!
Not only to kill, but also to kill those famous people. The bigger the official position, the better! The greater the prestige of a family, the better! Even the surname Li is no exception!
When he was severely punished before, he came to see Wu Chengsi and spent a lot of money to give his family some breathing room.
Now, he came to see Wu Chengsi again.
But Wu Chengsi could only shake his head at this time.
The last time they were severely punished, no order was issued. It was just Li Xian and Li Yunxiao acting casually. It didn't matter even if they were not punished.
Today is different from the past. Who is Wu Zhao? Although her temper has improved a lot, her decisiveness in killing has not changed at all.
Besides, who knows if there is a commander-in-chief behind her?
