Chapter 218: When the dust settled, the two sisters suddenly resigned
Li Dan made a decision immediately, and at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he took the matter of establishing a prince, which is the foundation of the country, as a top priority and put it on the agenda. At the end of July, it was convenient for the court to announce the edict and at the same time inform the world, and officially canonized the third son Li Longji as the crown prince!
The final implementation of the crown prince's position made Longji and a group of supporters behind him put down the big stone that had been hanging in his heart for a long time! Although it was a reasonable thing, because of Li Dan's hesitant attitude at the beginning, it really made them sweat a lot!
Longji can only be the prince, and must be the prince. Putting aside many other factors, just look at this one: the killing of Wei Shuren's military palace ban, Longji has made a first-class contribution, if he is not the prince, then as long as he is in one day, then no matter who becomes the prince in the future, the status of the prince will not be secure, and the emperor will not feel at ease.
"High merit and earthquake master" has always been the saddest and most helpless thing! He was bound to be suppressed by the crown prince and the emperor. Only he sat on the crown prince, which was expected by all, not only would he sit safely, but the prince and the emperor were one, and the emperor would not only not suppress him, but also cultivate him.
The crown prince is the emperor in the future, and he will succeed from the emperor in the future. Sooner or later, the country will belong to the crown prince, and only in this way can the emperor's doubts and concerns be dispelled!
At the same time, Song Wang Chengqi, who had no intention of taking the throne and didn't like disputes, was really relieved, and he could rest!
Therefore, this is a happy ending, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for either side.
Of course, only Princess Taiping is an exception......
Taiping was already angry in her heart, but she couldn't do any catharsis on her face, she couldn't lose the prestige of her princess, and she couldn't be found and caught by anyone in such a tight autumn storm.
Of course, she was angry, because she helped King Song up and sent King Song to the position of crown prince, and in the future, her attempt to pinch King Song and emulate the measures taken by the mother queen back then failed! This big game of chess, which was originally laid out carefully and methodically in front of him, was already lost in the whole game before the first piece was dropped!
Is it destiny or man's own tricks?
There was nowhere to vent this indignation, and she almost frantically blamed all this on Li Longji! At the same time, in a circle of thoughts, such a thought arose, and he began to doubt Li Dan's original intentions; Now everyone has seen that the emperor originally belonged to Longji's thoughts, so the emperor was in a dilemma at the beginning, was he testing her Taiping princess's sincerity?
Today's peaceful actions have disappointed the imperial brother! So after spying on the restless heart hidden under her peaceful exterior, will the emperor do something to her?
……
Today's Taiping is not only too eager for the nourishment of power, but also the attitude of always feeling precarious makes her feel like a frightened bird. She suffers from gains and losses like this, sometimes she is full of confidence and ambition, sometimes she is full of anger and weakness, in fact, she does not calculate against her, in fact, everyone around her respects her like that, but she has forced herself to the point of almost madness!
But if she is not to blame for this, how can she be blamed for all this? It was the trick of the current situation, and the inability to escape from fate that caused her to be in such a state of mind now.
She has gone through the three dynasties of Gaozong, Emperor Wu, and Zhongzong, and Ruizong is already the rule of the fourth emperor of the Tang Dynasty that she feels (not counting the words of the young emperor Li Chongmao), and she has seen and experienced too many things that have been promoted, and the sadness of tossing and turning in various situations...... There is too much to talk about!
As early as the beginning, Li Longji launched Tang Longzheng. The night before the change, Taiping couldn't help but talk to him about her worries, she said: After Li Dan ascended the throne, Longji could become the crown prince and Shangguan Wan'er could become the concubine, but she Princess Taiping would be nothing, and she could only be a princess. As far as she is concerned, no matter who becomes the emperor, her situation is the same, she is so dangerous, unstable, and turbulent, and she has to fight to save her life with so many exquisite thoughts!
As she said, this is reality, the cruelty of fate, and the straightforward helplessness that Taiping has to accept.
In other words, she has no sense of security, she has never had it, every day she lives in this world, there is not a day that is really smooth and casual!
Even if you are a princess, the world can only see the glitz and boundless pleasure of her appearance, in fact, among the many beings walking on this incomplete world, who is not guilty? Since it is a betrayal of sin, then who is not suffering and has nowhere to escape?
It's just that everyone is too vain, and they are only willing to let others see their bright side; is too intuitive to subconsciously be jealous, so they think that only they are the ones who suffer, and so many people are living bright and happy.
In fact, if you really deserve to enjoy happiness and have no suffering, how can you come to this world of karma and suffering? So everyone is the same, and no one lives better than anyone else!
Of course, if a person thinks that he is really living happily and without pain, then either he is still a child, or he is still too simple with a childlike nature, and he is too well protected to know what it feels like to be sad. Either this person is content and happy, but in fact, he is subject to these six realms of reincarnation and the boundless sea of suffering and cannot be liberated, so no matter how much happiness he has, he is actually happy in suffering!
If so, Er'......
Speaking of Song King Li Chengqi, it is also a blessing.
He had a very good brotherly relationship with Li Longji, the future Tang Xuanzong.
Xuanzong has always been grateful to his eldest brother who made Xian, and after he ascended the throne, the fief given to the eldest brother was the best, and it was needless to say that he was rewarded generously.
Different from the inevitable fratricidal and hindered brothers in previous dynasties, Xuanzong's brothers and sisters have a deep relationship, get along with each other in harmony, and have frequent contacts. I don't know if it was the precarious panic in the early years that made each of them attach great importance to this hard-won family affection.
Chengqi has lived a rich and idle life, is a real free prince, he has been accompanied by his favorite music all his life, and his musical attainments are extremely high, and he is also the music teacher of Yang Guifei, the famous favorite concubine of Tang Xuanzong. Shiyun: "No one sees the Pear Blossom Quiet Courtyard, and I play the jade flute of King Ning." ”
Chengqi died of illness, Xuanzong was grief-stricken, and everyone present felt his grief and wept.
After the death of Xuanzong, he issued a decree to posthumously crown him as "let the emperor", and his virtue favored the ages, grace and grace and descendants. Exactly: "The blood in the palace is hateful, how can it be like the emperor in the world!" ”
Of course, all of the above is an afterthought! Here is an insignificant .......
Longji sat quietly in front of him and drank tea, leaning against the screen, I don't know if the turbulent situation finally settled down so he breathed a sigh of relief, or he was a little sleepy from the incense, he only felt very tired all around, and then narrowed his eyes.
He was canonized as the crown prince, and then lived in the Daming Palace. In this majestic palace that is accustomed to bloody rain, in the whirlpool of politics and staying in the East Palace, which has lived in the vicissitudes of a hundred years, it seems that the smell of the power struggle is more sensitive and closer.
At this time, the curtain that went into the depths slowly moved slightly, and a eunuch walked in after receiving the signal, and saluted Longji's chin.
LONGi regained his senses and inquired with his eyes. That father-in-law said, it was the two princesses Jin Xian and Yuzhen who came over!
Hearing these two names, Longji's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly got up to greet the two sisters in person.
These two princesses are the sisters of the same mother as him, and it goes without saying that there is a natural sense of intimacy in the depths of the blood. Especially the mother concubine went early and inexplicably, and the early experience made the relationship between the three brothers and sisters more solid.
"What kind of wind blew the two sisters here?" When he reached the door, Jin Xian had already stepped in with Yuzhen, and Longji smiled brightly and made a gesture of "please".
Jin Xian was not in a hurry to go in, so he made a little joke with his brother: "Naturally, it is an east wind, can the third brother say it?" ”
Longji thought for a while, knowing that the "east wind" mentioned by his sister meant that he was made the crown prince, and these two sisters must have come to congratulate his brother.
As he spoke, the three of them joined in, and sat down one by one by the window.
Gong E deftly served the refreshments, the tea smoke curled in, the warm atmosphere and the relaxed and joyful mood, it was rendered more profound, and there was more of a floating life like leisure.
After sitting down, Jin Xian smiled and ordered Gong E to put the congratulatory gift for her brother in place.
Yuzhen took advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of the situation and said the words on his lips to Longji: "As the third brother saw, my sister and I came over this time, and we really congratulated the third brother on becoming the prince. He turned his head and glanced at the golden immortal on the side, and then said, "Second, I also said goodbye to the third brother." ”
"Goodbye?" Longji's hand holding the teacup stiffened suddenly, his eyebrows gathered, and he was surprised in his heart.
This reaction was also expected by the two princesses, and when they heard that the little sister was the first to pick this question, Jin Xian also nodded in agreement: "What Zhiying said is right." The soft eyes were slightly tingling, and the smile on his lips gradually became solemn, "My father has mercy and has approved our two sisters' request to enter the Tao, so I left the palace and went to the other garden to cultivate." "Words such as leaving the palace and separation, but they were so lightly said by Jin Xian, with some transcendent things that are out of the world and look down on the gathering and scattering.
Hearing the words, Longji was silent and silent. The two younger sisters have always been thinking, he also understands it to some extent, so they both made such a choice, it cannot be said that it is unexpected, I think they have already had this intention, but they are forced by the tense situation when Emperor Wu and Zhongzong were in power, so they have been hidden and not mentioned; Now that his father is in power, he can't wait to get his wish!
It's just that this difference is a bit abrupt.
Seeing that his younger brother was silent, Jin Xian said again: "The mother concubine went early, so only the three of us brothers and sisters were left. My brother has now become the crown prince, and everything has settled down on my father's side, which is good. The sound wave is soft, and there is a faint flow of warm sincerity in it, which is as serene as the gaze under her eyes, making ** inexplicably happy with dead wood in spring. At this point, he took a look at Yuzhen, and then looked at Longji, his eyes were sincere, and his head was slightly bowed, "We are also relieved." ”
