In the Fuma Residence.
Li Xiangcheng looked up at Du Kefa and said word by word,"My lord, my mother has been guarding that oath in Xiang City! In twenty years, the wind and rain did not change! "After the Xun family left Xiang City, my mother still stayed there because of that oath!”
"Ling Ci lives in Xiang City?"
"Yes, sir. My mother has always been in Xiang City. In the past twenty years, she has never been to any other place!”
When Du Kefa heard Li Xiangcheng's words, his expression instantly turned grim. At the same time, he suddenly stood up and shouted,"Men, prepare the sedan chair!"
"Here!"
Du Kefa turned to look at Li Xiangcheng and said,"Princess, I have already asked His Majesty in the main hall. Twenty years ago, His Majesty was indeed studying in Xiang City, Yingchuan. Please stay in the Fuma residence.”
"I thank you, sir!"
Li Xiangcheng, who was dressed in white, stood up excitedly and was about to kneel down when Du Kefa hurriedly supported her.
"I will listen to your orders and never step out of the Fuma residence!”
Li Xiangcheng had traveled to many places and visited many officials, but no one was willing to listen to him finish, so he kicked her out of the government office.
Only Du Kefa was willing to listen to her, willing to believe her, and dared to take on this accusation against the current emperor!
Du Kefa stepped out of the main hall with the Tian Ce Sword. Li Xiangcheng settled down in the Fuma's residence and accepted Du Kefa's protection.
After Du Kefa got on the sedan chair, the sedan chair bearer asked,"Milord, where are we going?"
"To the Du Residence!"
"Here!"
The official sedan chair was lifted and headed to the Du Residence.
……
Du Mansion.
Fang Xuanling had just left the Du Residence. Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling had just agreed on something. The matter that Du Kefa had mentioned in the court was extremely important. They had to send people to investigate.
When Du Kefa went to the Du Residence, Du Ruhui had already sent a group of people to Xu Chang's Xiang City to inquire about the Xun Family.
After Du Kefa's official sedan entered the Du Residence, the servants of the Du Residence shouted,""Third Master is back, Third Master is back.”
Ever since Du Kefa took up the position of the Supreme Court Official, he had moved out of the Du Residence and into the Fuma Residence. However, the servants of the Du Residence still addressed Du Kefa as Third Master. After all, Du Kefa was Du Ruhui's third brother. Even if Du Kefa left, his status as the Third Master of the Du Family would not change.
Du Ruhui appeared. After Du Kefa got off the sedan, Du Ruhui grabbed Du Kefa's hand and dragged him into the hall.
"Third Bro, you came at the right time! I have something to ask you."
"Elder brother, I was just about to discuss this with you.”
In the hall of the Du Residence, Du Ruhui dismissed all the servants. After the two of them sat down, Du Ruhui made a cup of tea for Du Kefa and asked," I've heard about Your Majesty's studies. I also know that Your Majesty had other childhood sweethearts before marrying Empress Zhangsun…"
Princess Chang Le was Li Shi Min's eldest princess, but she was not Li Shi Min's eldest daughter. Before Princess Chang Le, there were Runan, Nanping, and Sui An.
"I just didn't expect that His Majesty would be so infatuated with that childhood sweetheart.”
After Du Ruhui finished speaking, Du Kefa said,"Brother, there's something fishy about this! "To be honest, there is a princess in my residence. She was born by Xun Cai 'er and her name is Xiang Cheng!”
Du Ruhui suddenly stood up.
"What did you say? His Majesty has a son in Xiang City? Du Kefa, you can't lie to me about this!”
"Elder brother, how can I dare to say such a big thing?”
Du Ruhui paced back and forth in the hall.
Du Ruhui, who was good at making decisions, actually hesitated.
Du Kefa stood up and came behind Du Ruhui. He said,"Elder brother, I've learned something from Xiang Cheng. His Majesty and Xun Cai 'er have probably been deceived.”
"What do you mean?"
"His Majesty was summoned to leave Xiang City. Not long after His Majesty left Xiang City, a Sui Dynasty general led hundreds of armored soldiers to the Xun family and warned the Xun family to leave Xiang City and avoid the flames of war.”
"The Sui Dynasty was in chaos and dust was everywhere. Xuchang in the Central Plains was a place of war. After the general of the Sui Dynasty left, the Xun family went into hiding.”
"During this period of time, His Majesty married Empress Zhangsun. In your opinion, is there something fishy about this matter?”
"Since Your Majesty still has feelings for her, why didn't you go to Xiang City after ruling the world? Or rather, why didn't Your Majesty find this childhood sweetheart?”
As soon as Du Kefa finished speaking, Du Ruhui said resolutely,"Someone is obstructing us!"
" Brother, the Xun family of Yingchuan is also a prestigious family. That Sui Dynasty general did not harm the Xun family. He only advised the Xun family to hide from the world out of good intentions…"
"Brother, do you know the identity of that Sui Dynasty general?”
Du Kefa shook his head." I don't know. Only the Xun Family Patriarch knows this general. However, the Xun Family Patriarch died a long time ago."”
"Come close to my ear."
Du Ruhui whispered into Du Kefa's ear,"I know a thing or two about this matter. Back then, it was Gao Shilian, the Minister of Personnel Affairs, who strongly arranged for His Majesty to marry Empress Zhangsun.”
"During the reign of Emperor Yang, Gao Shilian was appointed as the Minister of Rites. Gao Shilian discovered that Li Yuan's second son, Li Shimin, had outstanding talent, so he married Li Yuan. The Zhangsun family formed an alliance with the Li family, and this became Empress Wende.”
" Longxi's Li Clan received the support of the Zhangsun Clan and received tremendous assistance. They became Longxi's number one distinguished clan in one fell swoop…" Du Ruhui whispered.
Li Yuan came from the Li family of Longxi, the largest aristocratic family in Longxi.
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the five families and seven families of the aristocratic families had great businesses.
The leader of the five surnames was the Li family of Longxi…
The world's greatest gentry clan came from the imperial clan…
……
" Elder brother, this is extremely important. I have to go to Xiang City personally. I came here to bid farewell to you. I will be gone for a month or fifteen days. I hope that you will take charge of the situation while I'm away. I have settled the matter of the Court of Judicial Review. You don't have to worry about it…"
"Don't worry, brother. With this foolish brother around, there will definitely not be any waves in the imperial court!”
Du Kefa had to go to Xiang City personally. He had to confirm Xun Cai 'er's identity. Otherwise, if she was replaced by someone else and Li Shiming saw a fake Xun Cai' er, it would be bad.
In order to prevent anyone from interfering, Du Kefa had to go personally.
……
Two days later, outside Chang 'an City, 600 armored soldiers were as majestic as tigers, and their flags were fluttering.
Du Kefa had already bid farewell to Li Shiming. He was going to Xiang City personally…
Li Jing, Wei Zheng, and Yan Liben, who were on good terms with Du Kefa, came to send him off.
Du Kefa rode on the Ferghana Horse, holding the Heavenly Policy Sword in his hand, making a grand display.
Apart from Du Ruhui, everyone thought that Du Kefa had only set off today. In reality, on the day Li Xiangcheng was brought to the Fuma Residence by Du Kefa, Du Kefa had sent his confidant to Xiang City.
After the morning court session, even if other people sent people to Xiang City, they would be two days late…
Du Kefa Sect's people rode fast horses and traveled eight hundred miles.
His confidant flew from Chang 'an to Xiang City in just two days.
By the time Du Kefa reported to the court, Xun Cai 'er had already been taken out of Xiang City.
Even if someone went to Xiang City, they would be a step too late.
Du Kefa's fanfare this time was just a bluff to confuse his opponent who was hiding in the dark…
……
Five days later, Du Kefa was already five hundred miles away from Chang 'an.
Du Kefa and Li Xiangcheng were sitting in the carriage and moving forward. An armorer appeared on the side of the carriage and reported,"Reporting to Milord, a person holding the token of the Supreme Court blocked the way. That person said that he was acting under Milord's orders and fortunately did not fail! There's a carriage behind that person…"
Du Kefa got off the carriage and thought to himself,"I really want to see what kind of woman can make Li Shi Min fall head over heels for her!”
Du Kefa received the token of the Supreme Court and saw the confidant he had sent to Xiang City.
Xun Cai 'er's carriage was already being tightly protected by the armored soldiers as it was dragged to Du Kefa.
Li Xiangcheng stood beside Du Kefa…
The carriage's sedan chair opened, and a woman appeared in it...
Princess Li Xiangcheng exclaimed when she saw the woman!
