The day after Li Shimin returned to Chang'an City, something big happened in the Summer Palace.

Empress Xu died of sudden illness.

Of course, this is an external statement.

After all, Li Shimin can't say that Concubine Xu was affair with Li Zhi, so she gave her a glass of poisonous wine, right?

Li Shimin loved Concubine Xu so much, and now he hates her so much.

In Li Shimin's view, if it weren't for Concubine Xu, Li Zhi would not have had to embark on the road of rebellion.

I don't have to face such a difficult situation now.

To make a concubine live a good life or a bad life, it is almost a matter of Li Shimin in one thought.

But even if Li Shimin had made up his mind, it would not be possible to deal with it in one day.

All necessary processes still need to be followed.

"Imperial Concubine, I went to Zichen Palace to confirm that Concubine Xu is indeed gone. Not only that, the Qingchuan has also disappeared, and it is probably no longer alive."

After Yinsuo received the news, he went to the scene to confirm it in person before he dared to come back to report the situation to Concubine Wei.

"That's great. That bitch finally died. It's useless to spend His Majesty's deep affection for her and his pampering love, but she did such a thing, and she's really dead."

Concubine Wei had no sympathy on her face.

It would be a great thing for her to die a few more concubines.

It would be better if she had the final say in the palace, then that would be the best.

As for the death of the rabbit and the sadness of the fox, it does not exist.

"Imperial Concubine, I just heard some rumors. It seems that Your Majesty already has the intention to depose the prince. I don't know whether it is true or false."

Silver Lock said carefully.

She actually didn't want to participate in such a big thing at all.

But if I heard these news, if I didn’t report it in time, I might disappear inexplicably one day.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince and Xu Hui have something like this. Although I did not deliberately promote this news, everyone in Chang'an City already knows it.

Under this circumstance, how could His Majesty allow him to continue to serve as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?

Assisting, this may not be the most critical. The most critical thing is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought all the Eastern Palace guards to control Mingdemen Railway Station yesterday, with unknown intentions."

There are still many sources of information about Concubine Wei.

As a representative figure of the Wei family in the Summer Palace, she can receive some news from outside almost every day.

Combined with reports from various newspapers such as the "Da Tang Daily" and the "Chang'an Evening News", Concubine Wei has a relatively good understanding of many things in Chang'an City.

"This... Your Highness the Crown Prince is too bold? After such a thing is done, his position as crown prince will definitely be out of stock."

Although Qingchuan helped convey some news, he was still shocked after confirming it again.

After all, when I first heard about a message, I might think it might not be true, so the reaction was not that big.

But after hearing it one after another, the situation was different.

"Wait, this part of Chang'an City will definitely be very lively."

...

In the palace of Prince Pu.

Li Tai, who has been working in the Agricultural College of Guanshishan Academy for a period of time, has returned to the royal palace in a rare few days.

"The position of the Chingnu is no longer guaranteed. Do you think I still have hope?"

Although Li Tai had already expressed in front of Li Kuan that he did not want to compete for the position of crown prince.

But no matter how much it is, it is definitely fake to say that Li Tai is not moved at all.

In the past, everyone knew that Li Zhi's position as the prince was unstable, but Li Zhi still sat in that position.

It's different now. The incident happened in the Summer Palace, and Li Zhi's misdeed intentions have been completely implemented. It is almost a foregone conclusion that the prince was deposed.

At this time, Li Tai and Li Kuan were left in Chang'an City, which was possible to become the crown princes of the Tang Dynasty.

Although Li Tai also knew that his hope was slim, no matter how slim it was, it was hope.

"Prince, if you want to spend the rest of your life in Chang'an City, then it's best to be a bystander and continue to be a teacher at Guanshishan Academy.

Maybe it can leave an important mark in history.”

Du Chuke felt a little tired.

He was ready to lie down, but Li Tai actually had a different idea again.

The situation in Chang'an City is no longer what it was five or six years ago.

Now Li Tai, he really feels that there is no chance.

"After all, I am the legitimate son of my father. Many ministers in the court should still support the establishment of the legitimate son, right?"

Li Tai was silent for a moment and replied.

"Your Majesty, you are right. Some people support the establishment of a legitimate son. Whether it is Changsun Sikong or Kong Yingda, their Confucian scholars who have not met the standards, they are all supporters of the establishment of a legitimate son.

But the most important thing about this matter depends on His Majesty’s intention.

His Majesty chose His Majesty the Crown Prince and demoted you to Laizhou, which shows His Majesty's attitude.

Although because of missing the prince, with the efforts of his eldest grandson Sikong, His Majesty recalled your favorite Laizhou again.

But these are two different things. Your Majesty must have never reconsidered the intention of making you the prince again."

Although this statement was a bit hurtful and even said it a bit too much, Du Chuke still said it.

He doesn't want to make trouble anymore.

Especially this kind of tossing that he thinks is meaningless.

Don't end up like Yu Zhining, your family will be destroyed.

That was definitely not the ending Du Chuke wanted.

Du Chuke knew exactly how much influence the Chu Prince's Mansion was.

Now that even Li Shimin supports Li Kuan, what else can others compete for?

Can you fight for it?

"So many people are talking to me. If I do nothing, wouldn't it make everyone feel heartbroken?"

It was obvious that he was unwilling to give up, but Li Tai still found an excuse for himself that seemed reasonable.

"Prince, whether it is Changsun Sikong or Kong Yingda, they will support you, not because they really recognize you, but because they support you, which is in their interests."

Du Chuke ruthlessly tore through Li Tai's fantasy.

There was a silence in the study room.

After a long time, Li Tai sighed. Although he was still unwilling to give up, he did not commit suicide again.

He likes Chang'an City, and no matter how good Australia is, he is not interested.

...

"Mr. Lang, you still have vision. This time, our Taiyuan Wang family almost fell to a state of endless doom."

In the villa of Wang's family in Taiyuan, Wang Kun stood in front of Wang Jie with lingering fear.

There are so many things that have happened in Chang'an City these days.

The most important thing is that one piece is more scarier than the other.

"The strength of the Eastern Palace is still too weak after all. His Highness the Crown Prince thought he had already thought it through very carefully, but in everyone's opinion, it was actually a joke."

Wang Jie knew very well why he decided not to continue to support Li Zhi.

How can you succeed in rebellion?

The East Palace made a decision so hasty, but his strength is low, how could it be successful?

If it really succeeds, then so many emperors from all dynasties would have long been overthrown many times.

"That's true. I communicated with other aristocratic people in the past two days, and I realized that on the day His Royal Highness took action, many people had already guessed what His Royal Highness wanted to do.

That is, the people in the East Palace thought they made perfectly."

"Yes, so how dare I support His Highness the Crown Prince? His Majesty's lifelong military service, how could he be able to take him down with the small handicap of the East Palace?

Not to mention that the twelve guards are all controlled by His Majesty, and a single Hundred Cavalry is not something that the Eastern Palace can deal with.

I can say with great certainty that there must be spies from the Hundred Riders in the East Palace, the King of Chu Mansion, or the mansions of the nobles in Chang'an City.

The only difference is how high the identity and status of these spies are, and how many secrets they can access from each family.

Even in some noble families, everyone already knows who is the spy of Baiqisi, but they will not easily say it out."

Wang Jie's words made Wang Kun sweat even more.
