The Prince's Throbbing Heart
Seeing how determined Gao Xuan was, Cheng Chuliang also understood that Gao Xuan could even reject the imperial edict, so he naturally wouldn't easily change the rules of the Taoist temple for them.
Cheng Chuliang and Fang Yiai had to leave Lingfeng Temple step by step and head toward Chang 'an.
The purple-clothed eunuch was the eunuch beside Li Shi Min, and everyone in the palace called him Eunuch Zhang.
Eunuch Zhang had already led the eunuchs back to the palace.
Inside the Yin Yang Hall, Li Shi Min was reading the memorials.
After the morning court session ended, the imperial edict handed over the selected memorials to Li Shimin for him to read and give reasonable instructions.
Li Shiming was quite serious about his work as an emperor. He did many things himself, and he had the spirit of a wise ruler.
"Rejected?"
After hearing Eunuch Zhang's report, Li Shimin was confused.
He had thought that if Eunuch Zhang brought the imperial edict to the Daoist temple, the Daoist priest would definitely enter the palace swiftly.
After all, treating the Empress was the greatest honor of a commoner. It could bring honor to their ancestors. Unfortunately, this Taoist priest actually refused.
"What a strange Taoist priest. He actually rejected Zhen's imperial edict. He didn't know if it was because he really had the ability, or if he was afraid that his deeds would be exposed.”
Li Shi Min said with a smile as he played with a piece of jade in his hand.
In Li Shiming's eyes, there were only two reasons why Gao Xuan didn't come to the palace.
One was that Gao Xuan was indeed capable and had no intention of coming to the Imperial Palace. It was easy to understand that he would not easily yield to others because he had pride in his heart.
The other reason was that Gao Xuan was not capable at all. Even the peach of immortality was just a fake name, so he was afraid that his deeds would be exposed and did not dare to enter the palace.
Li Shiming was more inclined to the second explanation, and he smiled.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, this Daoist is disrespectful…"
Eunuch Zhang reminded.
"Forget it. Daoist Priest didn't mean to kill him.”
Li Shi Min waved his hand and said with a smile.
Princess Changle had just entered the human world, so she was inevitably bewitched by these unscrupulous Taoist priests, thinking that the immortal peach could really cure all diseases.
The Taoist priest naturally did not know the identity of Princess Chang Le. Otherwise, he would not dare to lie to the princess even if he had a hundred guts.
Li Shimin only laughed at this kind of unscrupulous Taoist priest who only wanted to make a living. How could he investigate further?
Unfortunately, this Taoist priest couldn't enter the palace and couldn't bring the Peaches of Immortality that the princess had mentioned, which made Li Shiming feel a little regretful.
The news that the Taoist priest of Spirit Peak Temple had rejected the Emperor's imperial edict spread like wildfire in the Imperial Palace. When Changle heard the news, he was also shocked.
She had thought that the Taoist priest in the dilapidated Taoist temple would definitely seize this opportunity and might even become the state preceptor.
But now, it seemed that this Taoist priest had more backbone.
"Princess, this Taoist priest is very strange, just as strange as his rules.”
Princess Changle's personal maid, Jin 'er, said with a smile.
After Jin 'er's reminder, Princess Changle also remembered the strange rule in the Taoist temple that everyone was only given one immortal peach a day. Her red phoenix eyes were filled with smiles.
"Sigh, it's a pity that father doesn't believe that Taoist priest's immortal peach has a miraculous effect. That miraculous effect can really cure mother.”
Princess Changle looked outside the palace and said in a daze.
Ever since he had let it slip yesterday, Li Shiming had severely reprimanded the palace guards. Now, it was even more difficult to get out.
In the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian also received this news.
"Crown Prince, this is a good opportunity.”
The eunuch beside him said with a deep voice and a smile.
"A good opportunity? How could it be a good opportunity? Could there really be heavenly peaches in the dilapidated Taoist temple? Peaches of Immortality were immortal items. Changle is just young and ignorant."
Li Chengqian laughed.
"Crown Prince, although this Taoist temple is dilapidated and the immortal peaches are fake, the heart that prays for the Empress is sincere.”
The eunuch reminded him again.
After Li Chengqian heard this, he slapped his forehead fiercely.
That's right, the Taoist temple was dilapidated and the Saturn Peach was useless, but he could go to this Taoist temple to pray for his mother.
Imperial Mother held great weight in Imperial Father's heart. A prince who could pray for Imperial Mother would definitely make Imperial Father very happy.
Li Chengqian immediately understood the essence of this. He laughed loudly and patted the eunuch's shoulder." Haha, well said. This prince will head to Spirit Peak Temple now.”
If he wanted to go to Lingfeng Temple to pray for his mother and let Li Shimin know, he would naturally have to bring Princess Changle along.
"Let's go to Princess Chang Le's residence.”
Li Chengqian said in a deep voice.
In the Imperial Palace, the princes were fighting each other. A small matter could cause countless waves.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian wasn't the only one who could see the benefits of this trip to Spirit Peak Temple. The King of Wei, Li Tai, the King of Shu, Li Ke, and the King of Jin, Li Zhi, all understood this.
Just as Princess Changle was worrying about how to get out of the palace and head to Spirit Peak Temple to taste the heavenly peaches again, she saw several royal brothers standing outside the palace gate.
Princess Changle had a way to leave the palace, but Crown Prince Li Chengqian, King of Wei Li Tai, and the others had their own ways.
The princes were still interested in going to the strange Spirit Peak Temple.
