She believed that Li Shiming would handle this matter well. The Empress's condition was getting better day by day, which made the Tang Imperial Palace, which was covered with a layer of shadow, seem to have a few rays of sunlight shining again.
(Li Chengqian, courtesy name Gao Ming)
However, in the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince Gao Ming had been a little nervous recently.
Ever since his mother's old illness had relapsed, he had felt some changes.
This change happened to his father and mother.
In the past half a month, his father, Li Shi Min, had only summoned him once.
Moreover, he was telling him that he no longer needed Gao Ming's help in the recent political affairs of the Great Tang.
The Crown Prince was in charge of the country and was the representative of the government. This was his brilliant glory and also the symbol of his position as the Crown Prince.
But now, Li Shiming was telling him that he would not be of any use to him in the future?
How could Gao Ming not panic?
What was even stranger was that he was summoned into the palace by the Empress every day.
The Empress spoke a lot to him, but most of it was reminiscing about her childhood.
Gao Ming noticed that when the Empress talked about these things, there was a faint self-reproach in her eyes.
Gao Ming was very flustered. He realized that something must have happened.
This matter might even endanger his position as the Crown Prince.
Today, he found his uncle Zhangsun Wuji to discuss this matter.
"Your Highness, why did you call this old minister here?”Zhangsun Wuji walked to the Eastern Palace and saw Qian 'er waiting at the door. He couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Uncle, please enter the hall and discuss it in detail!" Gao Ming glanced at the surrounding guards and pulled Zhangsun Wuji inside.
Gao Ming's face revealed a difficult expression as he dismissed the surrounding guards.
"Uncle, after mother's old illness relapsed, father didn't let me deal with political affairs. It's been half a month and he hasn't summoned bengong once.”
"Mother would always talk to me about the past, her words flickering.”
"I'm worried that Imperial Father wants to abolish the throne.”Gao Ming lowered his voice and told Zhangsun Wuji about his worries.
Zhangsun Wuji's body trembled, but he immediately shook his head.
"That won't happen. His Highness the Crown Prince has done nothing wrong, and His Majesty will not risk the world's wrath.”Zhangsun Wuji said.
"Uncle, Imperial Father dotes on Qing Que. You know that if Imperial Father didn't have the intention to abolish him, why didn't he let Qian 'er continue to supervise the country?”
"If the Crown Prince can't manage the country, then is this Prince still the Crown Prince?”Gao Ming's voice was a little excited.
The position of Crown Prince was his brilliant idea, how could it be abolished just like that?
"Qian 'er, don't be anxious. I will test His Majesty at the court meeting tomorrow.”Zhangsun Wuji consoled. Although Li Tai was also Zhangsun Wuji's nephew, he was still on the Crown Prince's side.
Gao Ming had placed a huge bet on his treasure, so he would definitely not let any mistakes happen to his position as Crown Prince.
"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle!" Gao Ming knew that he still had to wait for news before the situation became unclear.
Zhangsun Wuji nodded and looked at Gao Ming, a hint of worry rising in his heart.
……
"Cheng Huaimo, Qin Huaidao, the two of you stop right there.”
At noon, Yan Lin was writing at the counter of the restaurant.
Suddenly, he heard a woman's voice coming from Vermilion Bird Avenue.
He raised his head and saw a woman in red chasing after two youths with a sword in her hand.
It was rare for a man to be chased by a woman.
Yan Lin had never seen a fight between a man and a woman before, so he couldn't help but walk out curiously to take a look.
Who would have thought that the two youths who were being chased would actually head straight for him, Bie Lin Xuan?
"Brother, do me a favor!" One of the young men said and rushed into the restaurant. He had already raised his stool and was staring at the person who came.
Yan Lin was just about to speak when he saw Chi Yi flash past, bringing with it a fragrant wind.
Immediately after, they heard a series of smashing sounds coming from the shop, accompanied by the begging of two teenagers.
Yan Lin turned around and saw that the two stools in his restaurant had been split into two.
The two teenagers who ran in were pressed onto the table by the woman in red, one in each hand, unable to move.
"Young Master, are you alright?" Xian Shu heard the commotion and ran out from the backyard. When he saw this scene, he immediately jumped in fright.
Fortunately, Yan Lin was fine. Otherwise, Xian Shu wouldn't know what to do.
"Xian Shu, you go in first. I'll handle it!”Yan Lin and Xian Shu said.
"But Young Master, these people are obviously not to be trifled with. We should…"
"It's fine. I'll go and talk to her." Yan Lin waved his hand, indicating that Xian Shu did not need to worry.
At the foot of the Imperial City, in front of the emperor, Yan Lin did not believe that these people did not abide by the law.
Until…
"You two bastards, do you really think I won't teach you a lesson?”The woman in red slapped each of the two youths.
Yan Lin could feel the pain from the sound.
However, no matter how powerful you are, you still have to compensate for the damage.
With this thought in mind, Yan Lin stood up and walked to the other side of the table. He looked at the red-clothed woman and smiled."Miss, I am the manager of the restaurant. You broke the stool in my restaurant, so you have to compensate me.”
"Brother, are you joking?"
"This is an unreasonable she-devil. Didn't you see how we were beaten up?”
"Aren't you afraid of being beaten up by her?”The bearded youth muttered to Yan Lin.
Thinking about it, it was strange that a youth who was about the same age as Yan Lin had such a thick beard.
This hormone level was a little high.
The person next to him didn't say anything. It was obvious that he was stunned by the slap.
"Young lady, it's already noon. If you don't mind, you can eat something here. If you're not full, how can you have the strength to deal with them?”Yan Lin said with a smile.
However, he changed his train of thought.
When he looked at the red-clothed woman, he knew that she was someone who would be coaxed but not forced.
If she really had to compensate now, she would probably fly into a rage and smash the shop. At that time, she would suffer even more losses.
Why don't she eat her fill here first? When the time comes, she would definitely eat her fill and not pay?
These people were dressed luxuriously. Clearly, they were not from poor families!
In business, it was important to be amiable and make money.
"You're quite interesting!" The red-clothed woman glanced at Yan Lin and said indifferently.
However, his hands had already released the two people who were pressed onto the table.
"Shopkeeper, serve the dishes and bring half a catty of good wine.”The red-clothed woman sat down and said to Yan Lin.
