When Mrs. Song and Song Yichen entered Beijing, they pulled thirty cars.
Just by looking at the queue of people pressing the car, you can tell how valuable the items on the car are.
Song Jingyan and Li Yunhang were two days behind them, and they also pulled dozens of loads.
Most of these are box gifts for Ye Yutong.
Although the Yao family is close to the capital, they received the letter late, so they arrived in the capital together with the Song family.
Now in an awkward situation, King An and King Xia hesitated in the fiefdom for several days, and then gritted their teeth and came to the capital.
They dare not not come. If the emperor ascends the throne and gets married, they dare not be there to congratulate him.
When Li Yunze takes care of King Pingnan, they will be the next to be beaten.
The two princes not only came in person, but also brought generous gifts.
Li Yunze asked Ye Mingzhe and the Minister of Rites to receive them, and he took the time to have a meal with them today.
During the years of war, vassal kings and aristocratic families everywhere were ready to take action, and they were not the only ones who had that idea.
It was enough that when he attacked the capital a few years ago, the two of them did not participate or be persuaded by Queen Mother Qiao to stab him in the back.
Although Li Yunze knew in his heart that Prince An and Prince Xia were definitely not aware of their conscience.
The two of them were not completely sure, and they were afraid of losing everything, so they did not dare to truly rebel.
Li Yunze knows better that people's hearts cannot be scrutinized.
If everyone is required to be a pure minister, then there may not be many available people in the entire capital.
Prince An and Prince Xia were somewhat flattered by Li Yunze's attitude, and at the same time they were relieved in their hearts.
The two princes stood up and raised the wine glasses in their hands respectfully, "Your Highness, thank you so much for not pursuing the stupid things we did before."
Li Yunze picked up the wine glass, clinked it with them, and drank it down in one gulp.
After putting down the wine glass, he sighed softly, "I don't have many close relatives anymore. If I accuse you again, then our Li family, hey..."
After hearing his words, Prince Xia and Prince An lowered their heads in shame.
Li Yunze had a panoramic view of the two people's faces, picked up the wine bottle on the table, filled it for them personally, and suddenly said sternly:
"Two uncles, forget what happened in the past, but if you dare to have such thoughts again in the future, don't blame my nephew for being unkind."
The two of them were startled by his words and immediately waved their hands, "Don't dare, don't dare, Your Highness, we will never dare to do something like that again in the future."
Prince Xia quietly raised his head and saw that Li Yunze still had a serious face.
He secretly gritted his teeth and took out a black military talisman from his sleeve.
He lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground, holding the military talisman above his head, "Your Highness, in addition to the number of people who should be stationed in Yunzhou, there are also 90,000 troops. I would like to leave them all to Your Highness."
Prince An cursed in his heart.
Before entering the palace, he discussed with King Xia how to make the prince feel that they were sincere.
Didn't the old fox say anything about handing over the military talisman at that time?
It's good now that this old boy left him and sold himself out in front of His Highness. It was as if he didn't want to surrender.
Prince An was angry, but he immediately took out his military talisman, fearing that the prince would have objections to him if it was too late.
He knelt next to Prince Xia and presented the black wooden sign in his hand to Li Mingze, "Your Highness, I am also willing to hand over the military talisman to His Highness and let him do whatever he wants."
Li Yunze looked at the two people kneeling on the ground. After a while, he said helplessly: "Two uncles, what are you doing? My nephew has no intention of asking you to hand over the military talisman?"
The two people quickly expressed their stance, "Your Highness, we all know that you don't mean this. We handed it over voluntarily."
Li Yunze still didn't answer, looking at the two black military symbols with a troubled expression.
Ye Mingxuan, who had been silent until now, stood up with a smile and sighed.
"Your Highness and the two princes are both thinking about each other. This should be what the ancients often said, even if the bones are broken, the hearts of relatives are still tightly connected."
He first bowed his hands to Prince Xia and Prince An, and then said to Li Yunze:
"Your Highness, although you and the two princes are closely related by blood, how many soldiers should be stationed in the fief? The court has a fixed number.
If you don't take it back, when the censor impeaches you, the two princes may still suffer. "
After speaking, he knelt down on his knees, with his hands and head lying on the ground, "I sincerely request Your Highness to take back the military talismans handed over by the two princes in accordance with the rules and regulations set by the late emperor."
Li Yunze pointed at the three of them helplessly, and finally had to compromise and said: "Okay, okay, I'll accept it. You all should get up quickly."
He placed the two military symbols on the table casually, and personally helped a few people up, "Hey, I really can't do anything to you."
Although Prince Xia and Prince An were a little distressed, after handing over the military talisman, they felt relieved and talked more casually with Li Yunze.
The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal thoroughly. Before leaving, Li Yunze said with a smile: "Brother, you send Uncle An back first. I have a few more words to say to Uncle Xia."
Ye Mingxuan responded: "Yes, Your Highness."
When King An heard that Li Yunze had kept that old boy from King Xia, he felt very uncomfortable and even walked absent-mindedly.
Ye Mingxuan walked behind him, chatting with him and glancing at him out of the corner of his eye.
Although his face was calm, his eyes were in a trance and he looked distracted.
Ye Mingxuan smiled secretly in his heart, his brother-in-law's move was really good.
From then on, Prince An must have doubts about Prince Xia.
If two people are separated in their hearts, they will be on guard against each other in everything they do in the future.
If we want to join forces to carry out rebellion, I'm afraid it's impossible.
