"My son, Li Yan, pay homage to my father!" Li Yan held the child and bowed slightly. 9 Reading.com

"Liulang, this child is..." Li Shimin showed a hint of excitement on his face. He had guessed the child's background since Li Yan came in just now, but he still couldn't believe it in his heart, so he asked again.

"Qi Bing, this child was sent to Dengzhou by Silla!" Li Yan sighed in his heart. The death of former Silla Queen Jin Deman is still a secret. In addition to a few important figures in their country, only Lu Hong and Zhao Fu from Dengzhou knew that Li Shimin had not received any news yet, which also made Li Yan a little worried. He didn't know how to report to him that Jin Deman died of dying childbirth?

As expected! Li Shimin was shocked after hearing this, and at the same time, he stood up from behind the dragon table excitedly, walked a few steps to Li Yan, and then gently took over the little baby girl sleeping in Li Yan's arms. Looking at the other party's pink face, a hint of doting appeared on Li Shimin's face.

"By the way, what's going on in Deman now? The child is still so young, why are you so anxious to send the child?" Li Shimin kissed his daughter's face, and then he remembered to ask about Jin Deman's situation.

"This..." Li Yan hesitated for a while. In the morning, Concubine Yang and Yang Ming recognized each other, but after the great joy, they were very sad. Now the emperor's father in front of him was very happy to see his daughter, and he probably would have to go from joy to sad soon.

Li Shimin was so smart. When he saw Li Yan's face, an unknown sign immediately surged in his heart. He asked again with a calm face: "Liu Lang, answer me honestly, what's wrong with Deman now?"

When Li Yan saw Li Shimin's appearance, he knew that he could no longer hold on. He could only sigh and replied in a heavy tone: "Kai Bian's father, Silla Queen Jin Deman, had already died of dysfunction a few months ago. Now her cousin Kim Seung-man takes over as the queen. However, in order to calm the hearts of Silla, this news has been in a state of blockade!"

Suddenly hearing the news of Jin Deman's death, even with Li Shimin's calmness, his whole body trembled after hearing it, and a sad look immediately surged on his face. Thinking of the gentle woman who accompanied him to recite poems and enjoy the moon while in Pyongyang, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling a pain in his heart, as if he had lost something very precious in his life.

Seeing the sadness on Li Shimin's face, Li Yan also sighed softly. It seemed that his emperor's father still had a lot of feelings with the Silla Queen. After all, there were so many women in Li Shimin's harem. Except for some very favored concubines, few people would make Li Shimin pay so much attention.

After all, Li Shimin is an emperor of a generation. He quickly controlled his emotions, lowered his head and glanced at the baby girl in his arms, then took a long breath and said, "Liulang, did Deman leave any last words when he passed away?"

"Yes!" Li Yan asked this question when he met the current Silla Queen Kim Seung-man in Dengzhou, so he knew very clearly. "When the Queen passed away, she once told the current Jin Seung-man to send her children to our Tang Dynasty no matter what. Jin Seung-man also kept her promise and personally delivered the children to the hands of the sons!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he frowned and looked at Li Yan and said, "Then Jin Shengman is the lord of a country. It is impossible for him to let go of the war in the country because of such a small matter and go to Dengzhou to send a child. Liulang, does the other party have any other intentions?"

Li Shimin is worthy of being the most outstanding emperor in history, and he immediately guessed the key. Li Yan smiled and said, "Father is wise, Jin Shengman is indeed not just about giving away a child, but has other plans!"

Li Yan said, telling the story of Kim Seung-man who was willing to hand over Silla step by step to his control based on the marriage. Li Shimin also listened very seriously. When he heard the last, he smiled and said, "Ruolang, it is rare to have such a good opportunity. Since Kim Seung-man wants to retain the country's destiny through marriage, then I agree to her conditions. However, whether she can completely annex Silla will depend on your ability at that time!"

"Don't worry, with my son minister here, Silla will never have a day to turn over!" Li Yan said viciously. He knew Jin Shengman's plans better than anyone else, but he was very sure that all the other party's plans would be vague.

Maybe Li Shimin and Li Yan were talking too loudly, and they woke up the sleeping baby girl. However, what surprised the two of them was that the little baby girl did not cry after waking up. Instead, she looked at Li Shimin and even stretched out her white little hand, grabbed Li Shimin's beard, and then pulled it into her arms desperately.

"Hahaha~, this little guy is interesting!" Li Shimin carefully pushed his daughter's hand away, then rubbed his slightly painful chin and laughed, "By the way, Liulang, what's my daughter's name?"

"Qi Bing, my sister's name was first mentioned before the Queen's death, and her name was Sitang!" Li Yan said with a serious expression.

"Well!" Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this name. Although it was just a simple name, he could feel the affection that Jindeman had before his death, and once again evoked his memories of Jindeman.

After a while, Li Shimin woke up from his memories and muttered to himself: "Si Tang! Si Tang! I didn't expect that when we met in just a few days, we would never forget you even if we died!"

"Come!" Li Shimin suddenly gave a loud command, and immediately a yellow gate ran into the hall, "Transfer my will to the queen, and she will raise this child personally. At the same time, he ordered the Imperial Heaven Supervision to choose an auspicious day and officially enthrone her as Princess Sitang!"

"Sui obey the order!" The yellow gate that came in agreed, immediately stepped forward and took the child carefully, and then sent it to the Lizheng Hall where Empress Changsun lived. At this time, Li Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The child had been sent safely, and Li Shimin also agreed to enthrone her as a princess. As for how to explain the origin of the child, it would be nothing he had done about it.

Seeing Xiao Sitang being taken away, Li Yan was about to leave, but Li Shimin kept him, and then looked at him with a meaningful look, then he slowly said, "Liulang, I remember that you invited your mother to the palace today. What's wrong?"

When Li Yan heard Li Shimin's tone, he looked at the other person's expression and immediately knew it. Although he could hide the fact that Yang Ming and his daughter brought back from Taiwan, he could definitely not hide it from Li Shimin's eyes and ears. Although he should not know the true identity of Yang Ming and his daughter, those who can make Li Jin and Li Ke treat him so politely are definitely not ordinary people. In addition, Li Yan hurriedly invited Yang Fei to the royal palace today. With Li Shimin's wisdom, he would definitely connect these two things.

"Your father, the reason why I invited my mother to the palace today is because someone wanted to see her, and this person had a very close relationship with her mother, so I had to make arrangements for him!" Li Yan said honestly. Although Li Shimin does not know Yang Hing's true identity now, Caier will live in Chang'an in the future, so her identity must be known to Li Shimin, so there is no need to hide it from him.

"Hmph, is it the man you brought back from Taiwan?" Li Shimin snorted coldly, asking with great dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Yes!" Li Yan replied with his head down.

"Who is the other party? You are so bold that you dare to arrange for your mother to meet a strange man?" Li Yan saw Li Yan's appearance and became even more angry. He received a message saying that Yang Fei went to Li Yan's place, and it was very likely to meet the man Li Yan brought. This made him feel a little jealous. After all, Yang Fei was also his beloved concubine. Now he met a man and was hiding it from him, which of course made Li Shimin a little suspicious.

However, Li Shimin was suspicious but did not lose his mind. After all, Li Yan and Li Ke were both his sons, so naturally they would not let Concubine Yang meet an irrelevant man. Moreover, he also knew that Concubine Yang wanted to meet the other party, and Li Ke and Li Yan were both present, so nothing would happen.

After hearing this, Li Yan laughed in his heart. It turned out that his emperor's father was still jealous. This was a rare wonder! However, although he was laughing at Li Shimin in his heart, Li Yan did not dare to show his face at all. Instead, he replied respectfully: "Your father, this person is an old friend of the mother's mother back then. The mother's mother has mentioned this person many times in front of her son's minister. But what he didn't expect was that this time, the Taiwanese delegation would actually meet this elder there, so he brought him back to Chang'an and let him meet his mother's mother, which is also a filial piety for being a son!"

Li Yan was also secretly doing evil. After saying so many things above, he just didn't talk about Yang Ming's true identity. It was obvious that he wanted Li Shimin to be anxious for a while.

Li Shimin naturally saw through Li Yan's trick at first sight, and immediately became even more angry and roared: "You little brat, why don't you give me a real trick!"

Seeing that Li Shimin was really angry, Li Yan didn't dare to keep it in hiding, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your father, the man's surname is Yang, and his single name is just a word!"

"Yang Hing? What a familiar name?" Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this name. He soon thought of the identity represented by the name, but then he looked full of disbelief and murmured to himself, "Impossible, didn't he die long ago?"

Seeing Li Shimin so shocked, Li Shi felt a little proud. After all, there were probably not many things in this world that could make Li Shimin lose his composure, but Yang Ming's resurrection was one of them.
