time flies.
God granted four years.
Li Dan is checking the actions of the surrounding Fan kingdoms in recent years. These are all returned by bad people from outside investigations.
He knew that Li Yunxiao and Yuan Tiangang had something big to do, and he could see it, but he didn't know what game they had set up.
Even though all the information about the investigation was right in front of him, he still couldn't understand what it meant.
The only thing he watched the most was the two playing chess, and he was joining in the fun. When the two wanted to talk, he would be kicked out by Li Yunxiao...
At this moment, a person whom he had not seen for a long time suddenly came to see him.
Wei Tuan'er.
As female officials, neither Shangguan Wan'er nor Wei Tuan'er could leave the palace casually. Since they are here, they must be here under orders.
At this time, more than half of the people in Chang'an City were panicked.
The acting between Li Dan and Wu Zhao is real, but there are a lot of things that can't be seen.
For example, Li Dan's concubines, the Lu family, the Dou family, the Wang family, etc., are all among the nine concubines.
Especially Dou, who gave birth to a son, Li Longji, shortly after marrying Li Dan.
When they saw that Wei Tuan'er was from Wu Zhao, they felt a little conflicted. As women, they knew how much they had to pay and how ruthless they needed to be the emperor.
They rarely come into contact with national masters or imperial masters. They know that they are called gods outside, but gods and others are not life-saving talismans here.
Now seeing Wei Tuan'er coming, the entire East Palace felt like it was facing a formidable enemy. Wei Tuan'er smiled awkwardly and said, "This slave is just here to see His Highness the Crown Prince, why do you sisters look at me like this?"
Mrs. Dou was surprisingly calm. She first comforted the others, then smiled lightly and stretched her hands behind her: "Your Highness is dealing with government affairs. You may have to wait for a while. Why don't you take a rest first?"
Wei Tuan'er smiled lightly and said: "Sister, I don't know. I have been very busy recently. I will go back immediately after seeing His Majesty's health. There is no time to delay. I would like to ask someone to inform you and tell me that I have been ordered to come to visit His Majesty."
Mrs. Dou's eyes flickered and she nodded: "Okay, then I'll inform my sister."
"Then I'll bother my sister."
After the words fell, Wei Tuan'er followed Dou to the outside of the palace hall.
The remaining Lu family, Wang family and others looked puzzled when they saw this scene. Why do they feel like these two people know each other?
....
Following Dou's announcement, Li Dan let the two of them walk in.
Li Dan saw Mr. Dou coming over, knowing that the other party was worried, so he didn't say anything more, but looked at Wei Tuan'er and asked, "Why are you here?"
Wei Tuan'er smiled lightly and said, "My slave..."
"When you see His Highness, you are a slave, why don't you show your courtesy?"
Before Wei Tuan'er finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuan Tiangang's cold voice.
Only then did Wei Tuan'er notice that Yuan Tiangang was still standing next to the dragon pillar on his far right!
Wei Tuan'er's throat rolled, why does this person look like a ghost? I didn't see it when I came in just now.
With this in mind, Wei Tuan'er saluted, and then said: "Your Majesty is disappointed that he has not seen His Highness for two years, so he ordered this servant to come and see His Highness. There is no special errand."
"That's it." Li Dan smiled lightly and said, "Okay, I'll go see my mother when I'm free another day. You can just say hello to my mother for me."
"Okay, you can see now that I live a good life here, and I take good care of my 'brother'. You can go."
Wei Tuan'er bit her lip lightly, walked forward slowly and said, "Your Highness, I have something to say that I would like to tell you alone. No one else is allowed to hear it."
When Dou, who was behind Wei Tuan'er, heard this, he slowly withdrew with a smile on his lips.
But Yuan Tiangang's figure did not move at all.
"Your Highness, there is something wrong with Wei Tuan'er's expression..." Yuan Tiangang sent a message to Li Dan.
Li Dan narrowed his eyes for a moment, then slowly relaxed his eyes, and waved towards Yuan Tiangang with a faint smile: "National Master, please step back as well."
Yuan Tiangang cupped his fists and saluted: "Yes! Your Highness!"
After Yuan Tiangang exited the door, he slowly raised his palm. A bad guy suddenly appeared and knelt on one knee.
"What are your orders, Commander-in-Chief!"
Yuan Tiangang took out a pen and paper from his pocket, wrote a few words, and handed it to the criminal.
"Give this letter to my brother Yunxiao."
"Yes! Commander!"
After the bad guy left, Yuan Tiangang stood straight outside the hall door like a door god.
He did this not to eavesdrop, because Yuan Tiangang would never eavesdrop on what Li Dan said.
Wei Tuan'er quietly came forward, put his hands on Li Dan's arms, and whispered: "Your Highness, His Majesty asked you to take good care of your health. The Chinese New Year will be coming soon, and he wants you to go with him to offer sacrifices." .”
sacrifice.
Every New Year or auspicious days, Wu Zhao always sacrifices to the gods of heaven and earth. In the past few years, Wu Zhao himself has led civil and military officials to offer sacrifices. Now when Li Dan heard this, he immediately understood.
"My mother still cares about me after all."
The reason for letting him participate in the sacrifice is simple, that is, to announce to the world that he, Li Dan, has always been a member of the royal family and has never changed, and she, Wu Zhao, has never been harsh on Li Dan.
"If my second brother and third brother could do this to my mother, wouldn't she have been able to live in peace long ago..."
Thinking of this, Li Dan suddenly felt sad and clenched his hands unconsciously.
"Hmm~~"
A slight groan of pain came out, and Li Dan realized that he was squeezing Wei Tuan'er's wrist tightly.
"Uh...hehe, I'm sorry. I thought of something unhappy for a moment, and it hurts you, right?"
Wei Tuan'er had affectionate eyes and a springy face. She smiled at Li Dan and shook her head: "I'm fine, my servant. Alas, Your Highness, there's something stuck at the corner of your mouth."
"Ah? Really?"
Just as Li Dan was about to reach out and wipe it, Wei Tuan'er took out a handkerchief and stepped forward to wipe it gently.
Li Dan swallowed unconsciously when he saw her cute look.
Like all emperors, even though he has married several concubines, Li Dan still has little resistance to good-looking women.
Wei Tuan'er.
He was born into a prominent family in Guanlong and Jingzhao, but he belonged to a side branch. His family was not poor, and certainly not rich.
My father was an official, but an official the size of a sesame seed.
Wei Tuan'er was talented and intelligent, good at singing and dancing, and quite handsome in appearance. With these qualifications, she was recommended to the court. Although her status was humble, she was still better than her father outside. Maybe she would be blessed by divine grace. You can leap over the dragon gate and reach the sky in one step!
But it's a pity that she caught up with Li Dan and gave up the throne to Wu Zhao just after entering the court.
Now that the empress is on the throne, where can she get favor?
Besides, she is just good-looking, and she is not as proficient in poetry and ancient books as Shangguan Wan'er. No matter how hard she serves His Majesty, she is still just a person serving tea and delivering messages.
Even if she was finally promoted to a female official, she would only be at the sixth rank. If Wu Zhao died, she would have to spend the rest of her life in the temple.
She is really unwilling to give in. Is there no future in this life?
Suddenly one day she woke up.
She wants to follow suit!
Wasn't Wu Zhao just a talented man who was not favored, but secretly married Gaozong, so he rose to Zhaoyi, had children, seized the lower position, and has become a nine-five-year-old man today?
Wei Tuan'er knew that she was far inferior to Wu Zhao, both in terms of courage and knowledge, but her pursuits were not that high either.
If you can get along well with this prince, not only being a queen, but even a concubine, it will be thousands of times better than being a slave for the rest of your life!
If she could give birth to a boy and a half girl, she wouldn't have to worry about it for the rest of her life!
Although Wu Zhao is now the emperor, in the final analysis, the prince is still Li Dan, and no one can shake this!
If someone is serious and wants to abolish the direct descendant and establish a concubine, he will have to face the wall of the national master and the emperor's master.
In addition, she could feel that Wu Zhao really loved Li Dan, and even if she was in trouble, she would not let Li Dan get involved. What's more, Li Dan was extremely talented, gentle, amiable, and humorous, and he was in his prime.
She is very attractive in her own right, and Wei Tuan'er also admires her, how can she not be tempted?
Therefore, she often stayed by Wu Zhao's side just to have the job of being close to Li Dan, so that she could imitate Wu Zhao's secret communication with Li Zhi.
Li Dan looked at Wei Tuan'er's face with a wry smile on his lips.
Why can't he see that Wei Tuan'er is a little interested in him? It was okay before, but now even if he likes her, he doesn't dare to just randomly meet someone and ask for one. Yuan Tiangang is watching next to him.
He won't do anything to him, but he can't stop this guy from being brothers with Li Yunxiao. If he says something against him, then Li Yunxiao really dares to do something!
After all...it is only natural for an uncle to beat his grandnephew...
