True Phoenix and Virtual Phoenix

"Your majesty, you are here. Prince Dongcheng and others have stopped 200 meters away from the east gate of the Forbidden Palace to wait for the emperor's will. Your majesty, do you want to let Prince Dongcheng enter the palace on his own, or..." Eunuch Cao lowered his hand Standing aside, he said this carefully, only daring to say half, only half.

If the second half of the sentence is for the emperor to greet in person, if he said it, the emperor meant it that way. If he guessed the emperor's intentions wrongly, even if he just made the emperor unhappy, he would be charged with the crime. One day he will have to pay for it. This wrong word pays the price.

Li Shun naturally knew what Cao Desheng was thinking, embarrassing a slave was not his hobby, and it was a matter of national relations, how could he get angry with a slave!

"I will go to meet him in person. Prince Dongcheng is only ten years old at the age of Huangkou. The capital of Dongcheng is at least [-] kilometers away from Shaoyang, and it takes about two days to travel by boat. I am from the south. How can the monarch of the Zhao Kingdom embarrass the younger generation?"

"The emperor is holy!" All the ministers exhaled secretly, bowing in unison to praise the emperor.

They all knew that the matter of welcoming the envoy this time was of great importance, and all of them knew that the emperor had to respond sufficiently to Dongcheng's overtures in order to avoid possible quarrels between the two countries in the future, and all of them were afraid of their little ones. The emperor was still too young to condescend, and was too impulsive.

Fortunately, Li Shun was only young and weak, but he was always a virtuous and virtuous king, and his words and deeds always respected Nanzhao Kingdom, which is really rare.

At that time, Lu General Hou Binglin was the only one who dominated the government and the opposition. With his bravery and military exploits, he was entangled in the court and formed a party for personal gain.

It also happened that the first emperor was seriously ill, and Hou Binglin took the opportunity to take the regent. After the death of the first emperor, the crown prince Li Shun, who was in the age of dancing spoons [15 to [-] years old], ascended the throne. Those rights never came back. A veritable puppet emperor.

Li's family is in turmoil. Seeing that Hou Binglin may try to usurp the throne at any time, the power in the court is one-sided, and there are only a handful of ministers who can stand on the side of the little emperor, and they are often persecuted.

However, just when everyone thought that Nanzhao was about to change its dynasty, the little emperor Li Shun resolutely decided to abolish Qi Rong, who was directly promoted from the crown princess to queen, and instead made Hou Shi Yalan, the daughter of Hou Binglin, the queen. It gradually stabilized.

After that, the Nanzhao kingdom looked harmonious on the surface, Hou Binglin was in charge of the regent, and the young emperor Li Shun didn't love the country and beautiful women. The two seemed to have a good time with each other, but the situation turned upside down within a few months like a storm. .

No one even knew when and how the little emperor acted. Hou Binglin was suddenly accused of usurping the throne. More than 130 members of the Hou family ransacked overnight. Empress Yalan escaped death because she was pregnant. , into the cold palace, the power Hou Binglin cultivated in the court for many years suddenly collapsed.

Everyone in the court had seen the power of the little emperor, and the rest of Hou Binglin's party was anxious and uneasy every night, and they were scrambling to show their favor to the little emperor. If things continued like this, the Nanzhao Kingdom had been under Li Shun's rule for nearly ten years.

The chariot traveled 200 meters in front of the east gate. Li Shun got out of the car and walked to the east gate with all the ministers, just in time to meet Prince Dongcheng and his party who also dismounted and came on foot.

Although the prince of Dongcheng is just over ten years old, maybe the royal family is often young and old. Judging from his appearance, he looks like he is about two or three years older. His handsome and delicate appearance can be vaguely seen, but it gives people a kind of spring breeze. Feel.

The contact between the people and horses of the two countries is nothing more than a small exchange of greetings. It is an honor for the guests and a welcome for the hosts.
