Li Chengqian was bedridden and unable to move, and the servants around him were unable to react in the face of the imperial edict.
Seeing his husband turn around and leave, Li Chengqian's suppressed emotions finally broke out. Regardless of his leg injury, he used all his strength to smash the room. If the servants hadn't stopped him, he would have almost set the dormitory on fire.
No one dared to tell the story about the prince going crazy in the East Palace. If it were reported to the emperor, it would cause more accidents.
But the news still reached Princess Danyang.
When Princess Danyang arrived, Li Chengqian had already fainted.
Princess Danyang immediately called for a trusted imperial doctor to treat the prince's injuries.
The prince's legs have just been reattached. How can such a strenuous exercise not hurt him? Not even Bai Song, not even an immortal can save him.
The imperial doctor checked for a while. It was already getting late, but his expression was very solemn. After working for a long time, he could only stop the bleeding.
Princess Danyang was a little worried and hurriedly asked: "How is the prince doing now?"
The imperial doctor shook his head: "I heard that the prince was treated by Mr. Bai. Everyone knows Mr. Bai's medical skills. I am afraid that only he can cure the prince's leg injury. Moreover, there is an iron-like object on the prince's injured leg. I have never seen it before while studying medicine.
But, I really don’t dare to take action.”
Princess Danyang was a little annoyed: "It's been going on for so long. If Bai Song must be there, why didn't you tell me earlier? Then go and invite Bai Song over."
Seeing the prince in such a state, Princess Danyang also felt distressed, and tears rolled down her cheeks as she spoke.
Just as the servant was about to go out, he heard Li Chengqian say very weakly: "Don't... don't go, don't invite sir, I... even if I die, I don't want... I don't want you to see me like this!"
"Prince, don't say angry words. No matter what, you can't give up your body." Princess Danyang comforted her.
Li Chengqian suddenly gained strength and pushed Princess Danyang back by the bed: "No! I just want to keep my last bit of dignity, but can't I do it? I don't want to see my husband, and I don't want to see Sister Bai now, whether it's death or not.
Whether it’s dead or useless, I accept it!”
Li Chengqian had made up his mind. Seeing him shouting so loudly, no one dared to say anything anymore, for fear that he would do something even more terrifying.
But Princess Danyang was pushed and sat on the ground. She endured it and stood up.
Princess Danyang is pregnant, and she has done everything for the prince. She is a little sad to be treated like this.
No matter how calculating Princess Danyang is, she is still a woman after all, and a woman has softness in her heart.
In the past, I felt that the prince was a child and was good at controlling his mind, but now I feel that the child is older and his mind is not mature, so some things will inevitably make him feel disappointed.
Princess Danyang no longer disturbed the prince's rest and ordered the imperial doctor to give priority to saving the prince's life.
After leaving the East Palace, Hou Jun gathered outside and waited. When he saw Princess Danyang coming out, he immediately stepped forward and asked: "Your Highness, the current situation of the prince..."
Princess Danyang shook her head worriedly: "The current situation of the prince is not optimistic. Even if he saves his life, I'm afraid he will only be able to walk with a limp in the future. The matter cannot be kept secret for too long. When the emperor's brother gradually discovers that the prince is disabled, he is afraid that a new one will be established.
Prince."
"Isn't it just right?" Hou Junji said, "The prince is no longer controlled by the princess. If a new prince can be established, the princes under Li Chengqian will still be young, which will be easier to control. This will save a lot of trouble."
Princess Danyang smiled coldly: "If the emperor appoints a new prince, do you think the new prince will still listen to us?"
"What do you mean by what the princess said?"
"Since Bai Song woke up, his family has long been the dominant one in Chang'an City. If the new crown prince wants to stabilize his foundation, he must show his favor to the Beiding Prince's Palace. If the new crown prince wants to choose between us, he will naturally choose the Beiding Prince's Palace as his backer, so regardless of the new crown prince's
Who is the prince? It is already difficult for us to get involved. But Li Chengqian is different. He has a grudge with the Beiding Palace because of this matter, and he is afraid that it will not be repaired in a short time. He also learned that it was the emperor's brother who ordered him and the prince to be separated.
The concubine will naturally harbor resentment towards the emperor in her heart, so the current prince has no other choice but to believe in us."
Hou Junji nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Although he is an old minister, he still has to listen to Princess Danyang in terms of planning.
"Your Highness Princess, since you have said that the Beiding Palace is the dominant family in Chang'an, does it make sense for us to continue to confront the Bai Song Dynasty like this?"
"Why is it meaningless? As long as the new emperor ascends the throne and the previous generation's merits and demerits have been wiped out, the situation in Chang'an will be completely different. Even though Beiding Palace is now a piece of iron, my good daughter has taken root in the palace.
Although I don't like her, I still know a thing or two about her temperament. What I want, she will only want more than me. At that time, who knows what Chang'an City is like?"
Hou Junji never understood why Princess Danyang pinned her hopes on her own daughter, so she changed the subject to another matter: "Your Highness, the envoy from the Tibetan Kingdom has arrived at my house. Is it convenient for the princess to go see one now?"
See you there?"
Princess Danyang touched her belly and looked a little tired, but she cheered up and said: "See you, of course I want to see you!"
Less than ten years after the founding of the Tubo Kingdom, Songtsan Gampo was at his peak. After reunifying the plateau, he was still eyeing the hinterland of the Central Plains. A few years ago, the Shenwu cannon invented by the Bai Song Dynasty was used to deter it from invading. Songtsan Gampo was
Forced and the Tang Dynasty entered a period of peaceful development.
This is not the first time that envoys have exchanged letters between the two countries, but the envoys mentioned by Hou Junji went directly to the minister's house, which is a bit subtle.
Princess Danyang got on the carriage prepared by Hou Junji, and the carriage slowly arrived at the Hou Mansion.
Princess Danyang went in with the help of a group of maids from the Hou Mansion. The three Tubo envoys were already waiting impatiently.
"It's coming! It's finally here!"
The three of them came out of the living room without waiting for an announcement and knelt in front of Princess Danyang.
"The envoy from the lower country pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess of the upper country."
"Get up." Princess Danyang waved her hand, her face filled with indifference.
The three envoys stood up and looked at Princess Danyang's elegant appearance. They didn't know what they were thinking and looked very excited.
Princess Danyang walked inside and said, "Have the conditions been agreed upon?"
"It's negotiated, it's negotiated. According to the princess's instructions, a group of the most elite men from the Tubo Kingdom will be transferred to Chang'an City, and then they will provide rations for the general's army for twenty years. The best and most cherished people from the plateau will be paid as tribute every year.
The medicinal materials will be given to Her Highness the Princess, and the people who accept the Princess will go deep into the plateau to mine silver and gold. All the requirements are fine. As for the other requirements Her Highness the Princess mentioned, we cannot meet them yet. Everything is waiting for further discussion in the future."
Princess Danyang nodded: "I am also a cheerful person. Since you promised so readily, I will not hide it."
After saying that, Princess Danyang took out a box from her sleeve.
