One day when the court was over, the ministers dispersed.
When Li Shimin returned to the back hall to rest, his father-in-law sent a message: "Your Majesty, Princess Danyang wishes to see you."
"Danyang?" Li Shimin frowned slightly and waved his hand impatiently, "Let her come in."
"Xuan, Princess Danyang has an audience."
Surrounded by several palace maids, all dressed in gorgeous clothes and treasures, Princess Danyang came in her best attire.
In front of the emperor, Princess Danyang put away her frivolity and looked dignified and solemn in every move she made.
When he came near the emperor, he knelt down and saluted.
"Get up, no need to be polite."
After Princess Danyang stood up, she said, "Brother, the emperor, and the emperor's sister are here today just for the sake of the prince's young master."
"Any comments?"
"The imperial sister thinks that Bai Song is too young to hold such a heavy responsibility, so please ask the emperor to choose someone else."
"The Prince's Young Master is a state matter. Danyang, you must pay attention to your identity."
"But the prince is also the nephew of the emperor's sister. The emperor's sister has watched the prince grow up day by day. She spends more time with the prince than the emperor's brother and the empress. The emperor's sister regards the prince as her own and loves her mother and son. How can she even
Don’t you even have the right to ask questions?”
Princess Danyang spoke pitifully, tears streaming down her cheeks, and she wiped them gently from time to time.
Li Shimin took a look, slowly closed his eyes, and whispered: "Okay, you can't change your pretentiousness in front of me? What did you do in the Prince Consort's Mansion? Why did you suddenly start to reject Bai Song?
This is why I want to see you today."
Princess Danyang froze in place and remained silent for a long time before asking: "Brother Emperor wants to know what the Emperor sister said to that boy?"
Li Shimin nodded.
Suddenly, Princess Danyang burst into tears and laughed: "Giggle... I didn't expect that the emperor's sister would sometimes make the emperor's brother curious."
"Tell me, what exactly happened that made you, a woman who is not afraid of anything, want to back down? Think about it clearly before you tell me, otherwise you will be punished for the crime of deceiving the emperor."
"The emperor's sister dare not deceive the emperor's brother, so she can only tell the emperor one thing. That boy Bai Song will not be manipulated by others. He is said to be the emperor's sister. Even if he is the emperor's brother, it is difficult for you to control this person. Now he is just
He is just a young bird, and given time, when his wings mature, I am afraid that no one in the Tang Dynasty can suppress him! If he is allowed to assist the prince, when we are all gone, the country of the Tang Dynasty will be replaced by this person sooner or later."
"Presumptuous!" Li Shimin shouted, "Danyang, your words are becoming more and more insignificant."
"Brother Emperor thinks that the younger sister is alarmist? This is what the younger sister says from the bottom of her heart. Brother Emperor cannot reuse him and should send him far away."
"I know that you have suffered a loss in front of that boy, and I also know why you want to drive him away, but the matter of the young master is the Queen's personal request and cannot be changed. Don't go against that boy, don't go against the Queen! I can tolerate you a little.
You have a small temper, but you have to be measured and don't go too far in everything."
Danyang was a little anxious and seemed to want to say something else.
But Li Shimin waved his hand: "Step back, I have other things to do."
Princess Danyang left the palace and was furious in the car.
For many years, Princess Danyang has never been so aggrieved.
The door-to-door warning failed, but instead he left a clue.
Now we are passive everywhere.
Not only Princess Danyang, but also the maids around her realized that something was wrong.
"Your Highness, are we giving up now? That boy is so powerful. He is so difficult to deal with even before he comes to the East Palace. If he comes to the East Palace in the future, our status will not be guaranteed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Danyang stared back with a cold look like a hunting falcon, which made the maid tremble all over.
"Say what you just said again!"
"Your Highness...servant...servant, I know I was wrong."
"Say what you just said again!"
The maid was so frightened that she couldn't remember what she said just a second ago.
Suddenly, Princess Danyang kicked the maid in the face and kicked her out of the carriage.
The maid did not dare to complain at all, she stood up and kowtowed repeatedly, her face covered with blood in a moment.
"Princess, have mercy on me, princess, have mercy on me..."
"Listen up, that's my status! It's not our status! Those who are dogs understand their own position, don't think that just because I give you a good look, you treat yourself like a human being!"
The carriage stopped, and a group of people knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the princess.
Princess Danyang glanced at the crowd, angrily tore off her skirt, no longer showing any dignity, pointed at the sky and cursed: "Bai Song, wait for me! Our relationship has just begun!"
…
Bai Song's life was no longer peaceful, and he had to worry about all kinds of things every day.
The construction of the palace has to meet the construction deadline, and the cost is increasing day by day.
Real estate development has encountered many small things that need to be adjusted. Recently, people have been causing trouble at construction sites, and people have died while building houses.
The bank and the court were on the line, and the Bai Song Dynasty planned to unblock the officials of the six ministries.
Bai Song was so busy that he wished he could have forty-eight hours a day.
My wife and children also need company at home, and I take turns moving between several rooms at night. I am already in my early twenties and feel that I am already unable to do what I want.
For Bai Song, his only safe haven was Shu Wang's little boudoir.
Li Jing is away, and there is only a butler in the house.
The housekeeper has been bribed by Bai Song, and he can come and go freely, so there is nothing to worry about.
It's just that the time to stay with Shu Wang is very limited, just one stick of incense every day.
By Shu Wang's side, Bai Song would carefully tell each other everything that had happened recently.
Shu Wang is a loyal listener and occasionally expresses his opinions after listening.
The combination of recent events made Li Shuwang a little more worried: "Although there have been many recent events, they are all trivial, and most of them were caused deliberately by others. Is there someone secretly instigating this?
"
Bai Song didn't speak, as if he was thinking.
Bai Song himself had also thought about this possibility. Ever since Princess Danyang made trouble in the Prince Consort's Mansion, there would always be various little troubles related to Bai Song.
It's hard not to wonder if Princess Danyang is secretly planning all this.
But if it is Princess Danyang, such petty fuss is not her style.
Thinking about it, a stick of incense in the room burned out.
Bai Song stood up from Shu Wang's arms and stretched: "Okay, I have to leave and come back tomorrow."
We have been getting along like this for many days. Every time he sees Bai Song leaving, Shu Wang still can't hide the reluctance in his heart.
Bai Song saw the other party's thoughts and comforted him: "There are only a few days like this. The palace examination will be held soon. If you pass the palace examination, I can marry you into my family."
Shu Wang nodded and gave him a kiss: "Go home early and spend more time with An'er."
"Today I also invited some classmates to go to Tianxiang Pavilion for a drink."
"Tianxiang Pavilion?" Shu Wang frowned, "Miss Shishi?"
"Don't think too much, it was arranged by Lu Yao. You can't ask me to pick a place when you're entertaining people."
