Li Qian smiled coldly, ignored Zuo Yiming and Li Yao's faces full of horror, and continued, "It happened that both of them were scholars from Jiangnan and had some contact with the Liu family. Although I am a minister, I don't have to visit the harem women frequently. Lord Zuo and Lord Li might as well discuss bringing a letter to Empress Liu, telling Empress Liu about the emperor's death, and asking Empress Liu to mourn. If you have anything, just let someone tell me that I will definitely make the decision for the Empress."

The implication was that he called Zuo Yiming and Li Yao to let them visit, and asked Empress Liu to announce to the public that Zhao Xi had been buried as a wife, and that Zhao Xiao was a fake emperor. He also promised that as long as she did this, Li Qian would guarantee her glory and wealth in the rest of her life.

Thinking back to the beginning, Li Yao wanted to retire, a large part of the reason was that he saw that things were in chaos, so he cherished his feathers and reputation, and was unwilling to join Zhao Xiao and others, but now he got rid of Zhao Xiao and fell into Li Qian's trap. This was like leaving the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den. Whether it was the former or the latter, he would not want to leave a good reputation in history.

But if he refuses...

He couldn't help but look at Zuo Yiming. He found that Zuo Yiming's face seemed to be even worse than him. He could understand it even if he thought about it. Zuo Yiming was still Li Qian's in-laws. According to seniority, Li Qian was honored by Zuo Yiming as "uncle". The relationship between the Zuo family and the Liu family was even more unusual. When Zhao Xi was able to marry Empress Liu, it was Zuo Yiming who was the matchmaker. Now the Liu family is the queen, but it is worse than an ordinary woman. She did not give birth to a son or a half daughter. She was abandoned by Zhao Xi at the critical moment of life and death and became Li Qian's pawn. She also advised the Liu family and Empress Liu to be used by Li Qian.

Zuo Yiming is much worse than him!

Thinking of this, Li Yao's mood became much better inexplicably.

He said vaguely: "Mr. Zuo is different. I am born in a poor family and have no friendship with these people from Jingyang Academy..."

He completely shirked this matter to Zuo Yiming.

Zuo Yiming cursed the "old fox" in his heart, and his heart was in a mess and he had no temper.

Who made him pat his chest to ensure that Empress Liu of the Liu family will be safe in this life and will be in the history of his mother's name?

But he was so embarrassed that he could not speak out at all when he persuaded the Liu family to surrender!

If he had known this, he would have pretended to be deaf and dumb as if he didn't know that there was something, but he would come!

No, there are King Jian and Princess Jian in the capital.

Li Qian is so calm and composed, so the princess shouldn't have anything wrong, right?

Zuo Yiming couldn't help but tentatively: "What's going on with the princess now? I heard you want to return to Beijing immediately..."

He looked at Li Qian in confusion.

Li Qian's expression was cold and murderous intent. He said disdainfully, "Hmm" and said sarcastically: "Do you think I'm lying to you? If the princess wasn't okay, I would have returned to Beijing to scrape King Jian long ago."

In other words, it is true that Jiang Xian was imprisoned.

Li Yao and Zuo Yiming were both shocked.

Li Qian simply said: "If the princess hadn't been resourceful and informed Cheng'en Duke in time, I was afraid that I had returned to the capital at this time and could only regard the vassal king as the emperor against my will. That would have destroyed my 100,000 troops in the north and my brothers who have followed me for so many years!"

"What exactly is King Jian doing?" Li Yao couldn't help but complain and said, "Don't he know that this will cause chaos?"

"Don't Zhao Xiao know that what he did will cause chaos?" Li Qian sneered, "It's just that compared to the people and the motherland, personal self-interest is more important! Zhao Xiao is also a descendant of the Zhao family!"

Li Yao and Zuo Yiming didn't say anything for a long time.

Just when Li Qian thought they would reject his request with silence, Li Yao suddenly looked up at Li Qian and said seriously: "Prince, I think I should go with Empress Liu when the emperor's death is over! As for the emperor's funeral, I'm afraid that the prince will come forward. And King Jian's side, if the emperor's death is announced immediately, he is afraid that he will not give up and want to regard the vassal king as the emperor. At that time, the capital and Jinling are busy, and it may be unfavorable to the current situation. Since Empress Liu is the mother of the country and the wife of Emperor Daxing, she has been granted a title and has been given a gold book. When Emperor Daxing was in funeral, Empress Liu was also serving her. I think about the heir to the throne, she should ask Empress Liu what she meant, after all, she knows the last wishes of Emperor Daxing the best!"

Li Qian was slightly stunned.

Li Yao couldn't help laughing as she looked at it and said, "I have been going through three dynasties and dragged my body to leave. I just hope that the world will be more peaceful and less disasters. Please rest assured, since I have decided to persuade Empress Liu, I will do this."

After the event is accomplished, it is also the time when he retires. This is his lifelong wisdom.

Li Qian smiled slightly and nodded in praise of the venue.

Zuo Yiming felt a little upset, and let Li Yao take advantage of the situation and the people.

He could only salute Li Qian as Li Yao, as if he and Li Yao decided together.

Li Qian pulled the two of them again to the current situation and said, "Although there is nothing wrong with the princess, I am very worried about it after all. After Queen Liu's placement, I will go back to Beijing quietly and deal with King Jian and come back to take charge of the overall situation here. For the affairs in the court, I have to ask the two of you to work hard."

The two agreed.

Li Qian's heart was half relieved.

After returning from the General Office of Jinling, Li Yao took action indeed.

He first visited the queen's mother Liu's family alone, and then visited the door several times with Zuo Yiming. After finally asking the Liu family to agree to their request, Li Yao was worried that Liu's mother would change the conversation. So when Liu's mother went to Daxiangguo Temple to pass Empress Liu, Li Yao also rarely walked with the people of the Liu family.

Li Qian did not ask anyone to be harsh on Empress Liu. Except for where she lives, her daily life was almost the same as in a palace. When Liu's mother came to pay a visit to Empress Liu, she saw her daughter's show and thought of what she was about to say, and she felt a little more calm than when she came.

But when Empress Liu knew about her mother's purpose, she was still shocked and anxious, and fainted.

Others can deny Zhao Xi's existence, but if she also denies Zhao Xi's existence, Zhao Xi will really become a living dead person, or even a dead person.

Although her years of marriage have wiped out her favorable feelings for Zhao Xi, she cannot die in her hands, leaving her hands covered with blood.

Liu's mother knew her daughter very well, and she couldn't help but hold her hand and cried when she saw this, "I regret that I shouldn't have sent you into the palace. But even if you entered the palace, even if I die at this moment, I can't turn back time and leave you at home. But you can't lose your life for the emperor! It would be fine if Zhao Xi was a gentleman, but our Liu family recognized him as his son-in-law. But look at what he has done over the years, which one of the things he has done over the years is something that can be done by an individual? Do you think Lord Li and Lord Zuo come home to persuade you for personal gain? That's for the people!

"The emperor wrote the imperial edict with his own hands, and the King of Lintong went to war with his order, but what did the emperor do?

"The loyal King Lintong came to beg him, but he turned against him and refused to admit it, and he was trapped by the King Lintong in an injustice."
