He also wanted to see what kind of medicine Li Longji was selling in his gourd, so he ordered a family banquet to be arranged. The standard was not high, and it was necessary to show that today's people are frugal.

…

Li Cong squinted at the two side dishes on the table and was stunned for a while.

There was both meat and vegetables, a small plate of radishes, a small plate of salted fish, and several pieces of pancakes, so it was quite filling.

As the emperor, he and Li Longji sat side by side in the top position, but slightly to one side, giving up the throne to the Supreme Emperor.

"The war in Hebei has not yet been decided, and the soldiers cannot wrap their bellies. I will eat together with the soldiers." Li Cong quickly reacted, picked up a piece of Hu cake, rolled it up, and showed it to all the clan members.

Since it was a family banquet, the guests were all Li Longji's direct descendants, princes, princes, princesses, and princesses. Although not all, there were dozens of them. Everyone first congratulated the Emperor on his return to the capital, and then raised their glasses to celebrate the occasion.

Tang Xingfu.

??????55.??????

On the third glass of wine, Li Longji stood up tremblingly while holding the glass, with a sad look on his face, and said: "Today, I want to admit my mistake to you."

Everyone also stood up.

Li Longji looked at Xue Bai, with a look of love and guilt, and said: "Li Qian, come here."

He waved, like an old man who loved his grandson calling his grandson, even looking a little pitiful.

This made Xue Bai feel a little uncomfortable. He would rather Li Longji be hostile to him with viper-like eyes like he did a few days ago.

"The Great Emperor."

"This is a family dinner, we should call 'Aweng'." Li Longji patted his thigh in annoyance, his hand holding the wine glass was still shaking a little, he looked at Xue Bai with expectant eyes, and said in a flattering manner:

"Call 'Aweng'."

Xue Bai will do whatever it takes to get power, and it doesn't matter if he calls him out. But now that he has obtained the power, it's ridiculous to see Li Longji acting like this.

What's more, after he promised Feng Changqing that he would not use the name of the emperor's grandson to usurp the country, his mentality seemed to have changed.

So he stood there with his hands folded and didn't answer.

"Good boy, are you still blaming me?"

Li Longji staggered forward, stood two steps in front of Xue Bai, hunched over, looked up at Xue Bai's face, and said sadly: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have listened to Wu's greedy words and ordered the execution to be abolished.

The third brother Li Ying...you want me to depose the Queen of the Wu family, so you don't blame me?"

"Father! How to do this?"

Princess Xianyi immediately stood in the palace and said: "The queen was born of a noble family. She inherited the beauty of Qi and was promoted to a high rank in the back court. She gave birth to children for her father. Didn't the father posthumously give her the queen because of his true love?"

If my father deprives her of her ancestral hall today, aren’t you afraid that the world will say you are heartless and unjust?!”

She was also anxious, and Yang Hui didn't have time to stop her and make her say such stupid things.

Without the filter of power, she looks even stupider.

Xue Bai also regretted a little, leaving the pile of business to do and running over to watch the father and daughter perform.

"And him." Princess Xianyi raised her hand and pointed at Xue Bai, "Who knows if he is really Li Qian..."

"Kneel down!"

Before she could finish her words, Li Longji suddenly shouted and shouted with an angry face: "He is your nephew, you have caused him to live in a humble place and go through hardships without any guilt?! Do you want me to do the same to you?"

Wasted?!"

Princess Xianyi was so frightened that she knelt down and cried immediately.

Seeing this situation, Li Cong wanted to say something, but he had no experience and could only continue to watch the confrontation between Li Longji and Xue Bai.

"I have already guessed that you are my grandson."

After a long time, Li Longji spoke again, looking deeply at Xue Bai, as if he wanted to reach out to hold his face, but did not dare. He just said: "On Yuan Ye in the sixth year of Tianbao, I saw you for the first time, and I felt amiable.

, I have been protecting you since then, but I was too weak to admit that I was wrong, so I tried to make you become the number one scholar..."

Xue Bai, however, could only recall that night of the Yuan Dynasty, when Li Longji was enjoying himself with all the people and was arrogant about claiming to be a god.

Li Longji said with great joy: "I have known for a long time that if it were not for my grandson, how could he be so talented? How could he compose "The West Chamber" for me be so in line with my wishes?"

"Presumably, the Supreme Emperor knows my identity and thinks that Yang Shenjin has evil intentions in wanting to claim me as his son?" Xue Bai asked, with a subtle hint of ridicule in his words.

Li Longji did not nod in agreement, but sighed: "It seems that you still don't believe me."

He told Gao Lishi: "There is an old palace maid who serves Princess Boping. Her name should be Ge Niang. Send someone to find her and see if she is still in the palace."

As soon as these words came out, even Gao Lishi was a little surprised and turned to look at Boping Princess Li Yiniang.

Li Yiniang is the daughter of Li Ying, and has been named a princess now. She and Li Qian are twins, and she has always been the one who most believed that Xue Bai was Li Qian. However, since she was taken out of Yeting, although she often saw Li Cong, she rarely saw him again.

As for Xue Bai, at the banquet today, her eyes were always fixed on Xue Bai, and she almost never looked away.

At this time, she heard that the Emperor was looking for Ge Niang, so she quickly asked her servant to summon Ge Niang.

In her opinion, there was no need to prove that Xue Bai was Li Qian. What the Emperor wanted to prove was his love and care for his grandson.

Soon, Ge Niang arrived. When asked about Li Qian, she immediately told her.

"My slave once saw King Yong visiting Princess Boping in Yeting, and the sister and brother recognized each other. King Yong said at that time that he would treat the princess the best in the world. Later, the bandits attacked Chang'an, and King Yong indeed assisted His Majesty in defending it.

Chang'an, picked up the princess..."

From the perspective of this old palace concubine, King Yong wanted to recover his origins, and the Supreme Emperor wanted to recognize King Yong. This was a happy event for everyone, and she would definitely try her best to facilitate it.

"I ask you, did I know about this after Li Qian went to Yeting?" Li Longji asked.

"The Supreme Emperor must have known about it. At that time, General Gao had asked for a slave."

A gentle smile appeared on Li Longji's face, and he asked again: "Do you know how I recognized this child?"

Ge Niang kowtowed and said, "I don't know."

"You are their nurse, how could you not know? Think again."

Ge Niang raised her head, looked at Xue Bai, and said, "It's because King Yong looks very much like the Supreme Emperor when he was young!"

"That's true, but it's more than that." Li Longji shook the wine glass in his hand, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "I can tell from his drinking capacity."

"My slave, I remembered." Ge Niang said: "When King Yong was three years old, the Supreme Emperor dipped his chopsticks in wine and fed him. With just a little bit of wine, King Yong was drunk for a whole day..."

Li Heng lowered his head and was busy rolling and eating biscuits. Hearing these conversations, he couldn't help but frown.

He didn't understand what the Supreme Emperor was doing. To prevent the country left by his ancestors from falling into the hands of rebels, the best thing to do was to declare that Xue Bai was pretending to be the emperor's grandson, remove his title, remove his military power, and depose him.

But Li Longji was actually trying hard to recognize the traitor at this time. What did this mean? Did he betray the clan of the Tang Dynasty?!

Even Li Cong was surprised and puzzled by Li Longji's actions.

The reason why Li Cong recognized Xue Bai as Li Qian was because he needed Xue Bai to safeguard his throne. But after receiving Li Longji's recognition, he gradually no longer needed Xue Bai's help. Now it was time to unite the clans and burn the bridge across the river.

Unexpectedly, Li Longji turned his army around.

Why?

It seems that Xue Bai is really Li Qian?

"General Gao, you have known for a long time that he is Li Qian and my grandson, right?" Over there, Li Longji had already asked Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi responded: "Yes, I have known this for a long time."

"Many people have guessed this matter in the past few years. I still want to hide it. Firstly, I don't want to admit my mistake. Secondly, I am afraid of damaging Datang's face. Therefore, I will not hesitate to denounce him as a traitor." Li Longji said,

"Now that I think about it, it was a big mistake."

This is also the thinking of some people in the world after he announced that Xue Bai was a rebel and Li Heng sent troops to fight against the rebellion. They believed that they were motivated by selfish motives. Now that Li Longji has admitted it, the matter has been revealed.

In the palace, including Li Yiniang and Li Yuetu, many clan members couldn't help wiping away tears after hearing this. A small number of people were happy to have found a descendant of the Li family who could guard the Tang Dynasty, and more people were happy that the saint finally realized his mistakes and could correct them.

.

After being stubborn for so long, the country's affairs collapsed, and now the saint finally figured it out.

Li Longji looked around, waved to Li Yuetu, and said, "He Zheng, come closer."

Li Yiniang originally thought that the Supreme Emperor would recruit her, but was a little disappointed when she saw this.

Back then in Yeting, she clearly got the promise of the "closest person", but now she is far from feeling that closeness with her twin brothers.

Li Yuituo obediently stepped forward and said: "The Supreme Emperor."

"I once wanted to betroth you to 'Xue Bai'. Do you know why?"

"Did the Emperor not recognize his grandson at that time?"

"I had some speculation at that time, and it was just for testing that I took this step." Li Longji sighed, "Now that I think about it, I am really old and confused."

Li Yuetu lowered his head and said coquettishly with some dissatisfaction: "Aweng only cares about finding a relative and doesn't care about his granddaughter."

"It's my fault, it's my fault." Li Longji stretched out his hands, clearly patted Xue Bai and Li Yuetu's shoulders, and said sincerely: "You two are brothers and sisters, so we cannot be husband and wife. We must live in harmony in the future."

"Yes." Xue Bai responded.

"My granddaughter knows." Li Yuetu also responded.

Li Longji was very happy and said: "I have made a big mistake, but now I can still have children and grandchildren, and enjoy the happiness of a family. What else is there to be dissatisfied about? Haha, let's have a banquet."
