Three hundred miles south of the Lower Tang Imperial City is the Jinchang City built by the Liang Dynasty to prevent trouble in the Lower Tang Dynasty. The Dan Tai family is guarding here for many years, leading the Shensha Tuqi. Jinchang City is a hundred feet deep in the north and south, and spans eighty feet from east to west, facing each other across the river from Fufeng City of the Lower Tang. After nearly a hundred years of operation, Jinchang City is no longer the frontier station of the year. The city is divided into two from the central axis, with garrisons to the west and national people's area to the east. The two have a total population of 200,000, which is considered a medium-sized city. The mansion of the Dan Tai family is built at the center of the central axis, and a general's mansion that is five to ten is erect, which is very grand. The people and soldiers are all in awe of this mansion and the people living in the mansion.

As early as seven days ago, seven days after King Yu's wedding, Feige's letter from the capital arrived at Dan Tai Guizong's hand. The letter was still signed as King Ling, but the credible content made Dan Tai Guizong's blood solidify from the head to his feet. He couldn't believe what the letter said for a long time. He stood in the study room in a daze for a long time, his hands trembling so hard that he could hardly hold the letter.

Dan Tai Guizong couldn't believe that the glorious Eastern Palace was burned overnight; he couldn't believe that his beloved and proud daughter was buried in the fire with the prince of the dynasty; he couldn't believe that Emperor Liang had just executed all the attendants of the Eastern Palace and never pursued them, and simply told the prince and princess of the world to die in the fire.

Two lines of tears flowed quietly from Dan Tai Guizong's eyes. Xiru was raised and trained by him. She was given the mission of the family since she was born. Until she successfully became the crown prince's concubine, the joy in Dan Tai Guizong's heart was conceivable. He originally thought that if he climbed the crown prince tree, his family would become a royal relative, and his status would be greatly improved. He might not have to stay here but be able to enter the center.

Dan Tai Guizong was looking forward and looking forward to it, and sometimes he wished that Emperor Liang could give way to the crown prince as soon as possible. At the same time, he was also secretly guarding against several other princes who also covet the throne. But now all his efforts were burned away by a fire!

For a long time, even the Dan Tai Guizong could not recover from this shocking news until the attendant came in to report: Liu Yi, the governor of Jiangzhou, asked for a meeting.

Liu Yi? He was demoted to Jiangzhou for involvement in the fraud case of Beijing Examination. He was the Lingwang Party. Although Jiangzhou was adjacent to Jinchang City, the Dantai family had never had private relationships with him before. At this time, he came to ask for a meeting. What was the matter? Dantai Guizong originally wanted to give orders to not see him, but after looking at the letter in his hand, he thought about it and decided to meet the former Minister of Personnel.

When Liu Yi, dressed in casual clothes, walked into the study, he no longer had the heroic spirit of Gan Yun in the capital. At this time, the frosted temples and gradually wrinkles all imply that this person had no hope of returning to the capital. Facing the mere governor of Jiangzhou, Dan Tai Guizong, as the general of Qianwei, did not take it seriously.

"Liu Yi meets with the general!"

"Mr. Liu will not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Why did you come today?" Dan Tai Guizong was really unconscious and asked straightforwardly. If he didn't win his heart, he would immediately see him off.

Liu Yi had long observed the emotions of Dan Tai Guizong, and he also said straightforwardly, "The Xiaguan came today for both official and private affairs. This private matter is that His Highness Ling Wang intends to make friends with the general, and this official matter is the long-term prosperity of the Dan Tai family!"

Dan Tai Guizong was obviously touched. He carefully tempted "What does Lord Liu mean? Guizong is a martial artist, and I hope Lord Liu will dismantle it in detail."

Liu Yi didn't care about it from beginning to end, and Dan Tai Guizong did not give him a seat. He looked around and did not speak. Dan Tai Guizong said: "All servants must not let anyone approach the study. Don't worry, Lord Liu!"

After hearing the words, Liu Yi felt relieved and said, "The fire in the East Palace, the prince and the princess died. This is something that has not happened since the founding of the country of Daliang. The loss of the crown prince is a major event that shakes the foundation of the country. It is also extremely disadvantageous to the Dantai family. However, Your Majesty deliberately calms down and focuses all his attention on Princess Tang's death. How can this be convinced when the fire in the East Palace is just an accident? Your Majesty's incredible behavior is absolutely meaningful!"

"I think this guess was not what Lord Liu thought of himself, right?"

"The general is clear and clear, and the senior officials are in Jiangzhou for a long time. These analyses were made by His Highness, the Prince of Ling. His Highness lived in the capital and experienced the fire in the East Palace. His guess is that the general can hear it."

"I have never had any relationship with His Highness Ling King. I don't know why His Highness Ling King suddenly began to care about my Dan Tai family?"

"The general is so bad! His Highness Ling King has always had a lot of eyes on the General, but he naturally cannot help because of his identity as the Crown Princess. Now that the Crown Prince has passed away, His Highness Ling King has no confidant in the army and is about to make friends with the Dan Tai family, which is also for the long-term consideration of the Dan Tai family."

"Oh?" Dan Tai Guizong raised his eyebrows and said tentatively: "Mr. Liu means to let this general support His Highness Ling King for the throne?"

"The living people who are capable of fighting for the crown throne are nothing more than His Highness, His Highness, King Xiang and His Highness, Yu. If it were the general, what would you make?"

Liu Yi's words reached the bottom line of Dan Tai Guizong. Indeed, if you want to go to the next level, you can only win the support of the royal family and choose a side station in the battle for the throne. Once you bet the right treasure, you will definitely be rich and prosperous, but if you choose the wrong one, the entire family will be implicated.

Dan Tai Guizong knew that he was not the one who could endure his temper and ended his life here. He wanted greater power and a higher title. He carefully trained his daughter since childhood for this purpose. Now that his original investment has been wasted, he must make another choice.

Liu Yi always observed Dan Tai Guizong's performance, and he could also guess the other party's concerns, and then advised: "General, the senior general, had previously relied on the careful management of the Crown Princess. Many officials in the court were all part of the princes. Now, as the biological father of the Crown Prince, if the general could raise his arms, wouldn't all the officials have turned to the general? It was because of the insight of the importance of the general that His Highness Ling quickly sent officials to visit the general!"

After peeking at the expression of Dan Tai Guizong, Liu Yi said with greater confidence, "King Xiang is already supporting his own power in the army, let alone King Yu. He was born in the army and established the Xuanjia Army. The general can only highlight his status on His Highness the King of Ling! General, among the four Shenwu armies in our dynasty, besides His Highness, you have the highest military position. If you can support His Highness the King of Ling, it will definitely be a great help to His Highness the King of Ling!"

"It seems that Lord Liu has done a lot of homework. He is analyzing it very well. I admire him very much!"

"The general is joking. If he is not sure, how dare he come to disturb him?" Suddenly Liu Yi lowered his whisper. "There is another more important point. The general also knows that His Highness of King Yu is not favored, but in the past two years, he has won the title of Prince Five Pearl for his merits. He said that he has no intention of competing for the throne. The general is trustworthy? With his fierce hands at this time, if the prince is gone, isn't King Yu the most powerful competitor to the throne?"

Liu Yi's this obviously implied something. Dan Tai Guizong followed his words and said, "Does Lord Liu think that the little girl is related to the death of the prince and King Yu?"

"General, think about it, who will be the biggest beneficiary of this matter?"

Although he also had strong doubts about the fire in the East Palace that caused the crown prince to die suddenly and Emperor Liang only closed the case in an accident, Dan Tai Guizong did not think deeply about this level at all. As a soldier, Dan Tai Guizong also had dates with King Yu. His past impression was really hard to connect it with the conspiracy behind it.

"His Highness of King Yu has always shown himself as a calm and kind person, and his mind is unconscious, but sometimes his eyes can deceive people. As far as the officials know, the sudden change of Princess Xia Tang's death occurred at that time. Only the two of them were present in Hechuan Palace. After the East Palace left, King Yu appeared at the scene as soon as possible. Moreover, the bodies of the prince and the princess were also identified by King Yu. General, do you think there is such a coincidence in this world?" Liu Yi put a heavyweight weight on one end of the swaying balance of Dan Tai Guizong.

"The sudden death of Princess Xia Tang on her wedding night will surely arouse the fierce anger of Xia Tang. At that time, a war is inevitable. The general remembers that King Yu was favored so quickly and relied on his great military achievements! The following officials and villains speculated that the two changes in this night were definitely a masterpiece of killing two birds with one move!"

There is no doubt that this "reasonable and well-founded" analysis completely deviated the balance of Dan Tai Guizong's heart. Liu Yi seized the opportunity to make a statement again. "General, if the officials speculate it is true, King Yu is undoubtedly not only the political enemy of King Ling, but also your female killer enemy! If the officials speculate on it, King Yu is also the enemy of King Ling. King Yu is determined to expand the Xuanjia Army. He sent his confidants to Pingzhou and Dengzhou to recruit tens of thousands of young people to train the new army. In the long run, King Yu's prestige in the army will not be shaken, and the general is obviously not the direct line of King Yu."

Dan Tai Guizong claimed that he was brave and resourceful, but these possibilities were never thought of. When Liu Yi said it like a story, his heart twitched and his forehead was sweating slightly. But even so, if you really want to make up your mind to find a backer again, you must not just rely on a few words from someone else and your own whim. You have to think deeply.
