Shangguan Ruoli saw that the time was almost up, so she sat in a soft sedan through the long alley, exited Prince Xuan's Mansion, sat in a carriage specially prepared for her, and headed towards the palace, being cheered by the guard of honor.

Because the emperor is ill, the scale of the palace banquet this time is small. It includes the princes, some high-status people from the royal family, court officials of second rank and above, and wives.

Therefore, the carriages and sedan chairs at the entrance of the palace are not so crowded.

Shangguan Ruoli stepped off the carriage on a small stool and saw King Li and Princess Li also getting off the carriage.

Even though King Li was wearing a royal python robe, he couldn't hide his gloomy and dark aura, just like a king walking out of hell.

Princess Li wears luxurious palace attire, but she still looks simple and lively.

Shangguan Ruoli snorted coldly and didn't want to pay attention to them. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Princess Li: "The Great Emperor's Wife!"

Shangguan Ruoli saw that he couldn't hide, so he smiled lightly and said: "Princess Li, what a coincidence."

Princess Li came up to greet you, "Oh, Sister-in-Law, I didn't entertain you well yesterday. I didn't even know when you left. It's really rude."

Her voice is sweet and lively, sincere and kind.

"No, your hospitality is very attentive." Shangguan Ruoli smiled meaningfully and retracted his hands into his sleeves to prevent her from grabbing them.

King Li narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had not heard Shangguan Ruoli's sarcasm, and looked at the splendid palace with his hands behind his back.

Row upon row of palaces, the majestic Qiankun Hall stands impressively among them. After years of baptism and precipitation, its majesty and solemnity are even more apparent.

His Royal Highness King Li stood solemnly in front of the palace, looking up at the palace that represented the majesty of the Heavenly Family and contained thousands of powers. His eyes slowly glowed with scarlet.

The chariot from Prince Qin's palace also arrived over there, and Prince Qin got off the carriage. Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, Prince Qin was released from confinement for a day. When he saw Prince Li, his eyes narrowed.

King Qin is a deep and sharp type, but perhaps because of the Yunxia Palace and the nine-tailed demon fox, Shangguan Ruoli felt that his noble and handsome appearance was a bit wretched.

"Brother King Qin!" Princess Li saluted King Qin.

Shangguan Ruoli is the eldest sister-in-law. Except for the prince, who is a semi-king, there is no need to salute the other princes. He only nodded slightly as a greeting.

"Huh!" King Qin snorted coldly, ignored her, turned to greet King Li, "King Li, let's go, don't waste time."

Damn it! You are so crazy about your grandma!

Without Yunxia Palace and the nine-tailed demon fox, how much power do you still have?

Now Qu Xiaohan has gradually gained a foothold in Nanyun, and the alliance between King Qin and Nanyun has also broken up.

What kind of capital do you have, like 2,780,000 yuan?

King Qin and King Li exchanged glances and walked towards the palace gate. No one paid attention to Shangguan Ruoli, the elder sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law of the Emperor! Let's go in too!" Princess Li seemed to be unaware of the situation and came to hold Shangguan Ruoli's arm affectionately.

Shangguan Ruo took the first step to avoid her advances and said, "Let's go."

Princess Li didn't feel embarrassed, and still followed with a smile, looking careless.

If Shangguan Ruoli hadn't believed that there were no truly innocent people in the royal family, he would have suspected that the news from Meihua Pavilion was wrong.

Along the way, I listened to Princess Li chattering about interesting things about Jiangnan, and I didn't feel that the palace road was too narrow.

Shangguan Ruoli and Princess Li went directly to the Qiankun Hall where the banquet was held, while King Li and King Qin went to the emperor's bedchamber to pay their respects to the emperor.

After all, it was not easy for King Qin to leave the palace and enter the palace openly and openly. He had to show his "filial piety" to the emperor.

Since King Li was away from the capital all year round, he had to seize every opportunity to make his presence felt in front of the emperor.

Eunuch Zheng was still waiting in front of the emperor. When he saw His Highness King Li, there was a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

His Highness Prince Li seems to be a little different today? The sinister and dark aura about him seems to be stronger.

Eunuch Zheng shook off the dust and shouted in a sharp and sharp voice: "His Royal Highness King Qin is here! His Highness King Li is here!"

In the palace, the emperor, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, was sitting on a couch with a sullen face, reading the memorials of his ministers.

Suddenly hearing the news of King Li's arrival, a smile broke out on his dark face, "Let King Li come in."

King Li strode into the palace, but King Qin was left outside the palace, his face suddenly turned ferocious.

The emperor didn't even raise his head, and couldn't wait to complain to his favorite son, "Look at these ministers, the so-called "eating the emperor's salary and worrying about the emperor", what kind of worries do they have? Each memorial,

Are these insignificant things? I am most worried about the incident in Beiling right now, but no one mentioned it!"

Shangguan Tianxiao is at the border of Nanyun with an army of 200,000. If he sends more troops to attack Beiling, the defense of the capital will be empty.

Besides, the treasury cannot bear it either.

The money for Linzhou disaster relief was raised by King Xuan himself.

His Highness Prince Li said in a magnetic and rich voice: "Father, there is no need to worry. I am willing to share my father's worries and go to the border to negotiate with Beiling."

"Oh?" The emperor was overjoyed, threw away the memorial in his hand, and then raised his head to look at His Highness Prince Li.

"Tell me quickly, how to negotiate?" the emperor asked impatiently.

Li Wangjun had an obscure smile on his face and a hint of evil in his tone, "Father, I feel that if Beiling General captures four of our cities and returns two, peace will be achieved, but war will not be achieved."

The emperor frowned, "War? Do you want to lead troops?"

King Li took two steps forward, firmly and even filled with righteous indignation, "It is my duty to share my father's worries and do my best for the country! Even if I die, it will be an honor!"

A flash of distress flashed in the emperor's eyes, "It's already mid-August, and the northern border has been snow-capped. Not to mention the bitter cold, the weather conditions are extremely unfavorable to us."

"For my father and for Dongming, I will not be afraid of hardship!" King Li's attitude was very firm, with concern and admiration for Emperor Dongming in his eyes.

What he actually wanted was military power. Now he had money, but there were so many plains in the south of the Yangtze River that he had no suitable place to raise private soldiers.

The emperor frowned and sighed: "The battlefield is dangerous and the sword has no eyes. I promised your mother and concubine to take good care of you when you grow up. How can I let you take risks?"

King Li said sincerely: "My son has grown up and cannot live under the wings of his father forever. A good man should protect his family and country and share his worries for you!"

The emperor nodded, "But I am reluctant to put you in danger. Let me think about it carefully and discuss the matter with you tomorrow morning."

If it were any other prince, he would have already suspected his intentions, but for this son, he was only worried about his safety.

In the harem,

Concubine Rou has finished dressing up.

While arranging the gorgeous armor, she asked the palace maid: "Didn't you say that King Qin has entered the palace? Why haven't you come to see me yet?"
