Chapter 202: The dust settles and Li Dan ascends the throne
No one in the hall dared to say more. The current state of affairs is actually a tacit result, and there is no need to question it or not.
Li Dan's face finally changed slightly, after all, Zhongzong's coffin was here, in front of his father, who had already gone away, so persecuted the surviving child of the family...... How indifferent and desolate is such a means to devour human nature!
He is also a father, he also has children, and Zhongzong Li Xian is still his half-brother, and the person who sits high on the throne, seemingly glorious but actually so helpless, is his own nephew!
The thought spread, and Li Dan's heart really had a flash of light! Even though he has always been so indifferent and worldly, he also knows that he is not a person who is really pure and innocent. The world is too complicated and too turbid, and how many people who walk in the world are clean?
But at this moment, I don't know if it's because I have experienced Wan'er's death, so Li Dan has re-identified and respected all kinds of feelings in this world. He actually empathized with Chongmao's state of mind at this time.
But in the end, he didn't say anything, he didn't do anything. If the emperor doesn't move, he doesn't move, he just stands there with his hands in his hands, and the air around him tends to be solemn in his ears.
At that time, the situation is already very embarrassing! The will of the Zen throne has been spoken by Princess Taiping, the words of gratitude have been summarized by Li Longji, and the high-sounding edict of succession has also been read out by Liu Youqiu.
What a homeopathic ride this cutscene has gone!
There can only be one emperor, and the throne can only be sat by the emperor. At this moment, in fact, King Xiang is no longer King Xiang, but a serious and undoubted emperor. The new emperor is waiting to receive the order, and the old one, who is no longer the emperor, is stunned and unmoved! The invisible sense of oppression is getting stronger and stronger, and the anxious thoughts are held in the heart, but everyone can only do it in a hurry...... Isn't this a smothering of individuals!
In fact, at this moment, how can Li Chongmao have the slightest intention of trying to fight? He was just panicked for a while, and the whole person was stupid! The news of the succession was like a thunderbolt in his head, and he went from the initial surprise to the anger that followed, and then the final grievance and resentment and fear and ...... Many emotions were very complicated in his mind, so that he had no action in his whole body, only stiffness and inability to move!
But the scene can't be stalemate here forever, someone has to stand up and do something. Taiping subconsciously glanced sideways at Longji, and Longji also looked at Taiping at this time, and the eyes of the two people with a deep tacit understanding met, and they saw some hidden signs from the depths of each other's eyes.
That's how I put my mind in my heart.
Longji couldn't hold back for a long time, thinking that he would simply stand up and take down the little emperor! But on such an occasion, his identity and seniority, if he stood up, it would be out of place, so after he tossed and turned, he signaled to Taiping, asking Taiping to go and mention that the emperor should hurry up and understand current affairs!
Princess Taiping is their aunt when it comes to seniority, and the contagion brought by standing up to speak and doing things is naturally very important! There is no one more suitable to be this wicked person than her.
Taiping understands it, but she always has such a soft string in her heart, no matter how resolute and ruthless she looks on the outside, she can't deceive the tenderness in her heart. Originally, they took advantage of the power that belonged to others, and said that Wei Hou had a different heart, could it be that these people were not wrong-minded? Besides, Li Xian's coffin is here, so to further persecute other people's sons, this is ......
can be turned around, how did Zhongzong guard against the king and the peace like wolves when he was in power? Aren't they the brothers and sisters of the same mother of Zhongzong? The matter of power has nothing to do with right or wrong, and the heart has been ruthless for so many years, and it is not bad for this step!
A sharp light suddenly floated over Taiping's eyelids, and her heart sank, and without further consideration, she took a few decisive steps and walked to the throne.
Chongmao's body was shocked by the oncoming invisible aura, and he suddenly returned to his senses!
Taiping's eyes were narrow, his lips were hooked, and his voice was aggressive with the power of oppression: "The hearts of the people have been returned to the king, emperor, this position is no longer yours!" Where is there a trace of warmth in this lukewarm tone? At the end of his words, he didn't wait for Chongmao to react, raised his hand and beckoned him along the collar of his neck, and dragged the somewhat weak young man down and fell to the side!
Chongmao's heart fell violently together! The whole person was stunned in panic, and before he could react, he had already stumbled and fell to the hard prism.
How good is everything to do, Taiping breathed a sigh, stared at the Wei Wei eyes and glanced at the shocked ministers present, this situation and this scene suddenly reset as if time and space were reset, and at this moment, Princess Taiping saw the shadow of Wu Zetian in surprise on her face......
This is the first time that the courtiers have seen the majesty and skill of their princess face to face! The air in the hall was tight, and it seemed that even the breath that was exhaled quickly condensed into fine ice.
After making sure that none of the courtiers dared to object, Taiping turned around competently, paced to the coffin, and gave a simple salute to Li Dan, who was standing solemnly: "The courtiers are here, welcome the emperor to the throne!" That loud voice rose up, affecting the hall that had been stagnant in winter, and suddenly the condensed glacier was transformed into a vibrant spring vitality.
Dan jaw head.
Taiping walked beside Li Dan, raised her arm and let her brother take her arm all the way to the golden dragon chair. It's not a long road, a few steps away, but it took a lifetime to walk...... Even if many people spend their lives and exhaust their life's breath, they still can't walk or reach it. They can only watch the fire, smoke and water from the other side, or they can only wander away and scatter light smoke at the last half step that seems to be within reach. But fortunately, Li Dan finally came to the end.
This golden dragon chair with confused eyes seems to be the best thing in this world, and most people are ambitious to get it. What many people want must be excellent! But when you think about it, what's so good? It doesn't seem to know everything.
Perhaps the advantage of it is that it arouses the hidden blood of the human heart, the innate desire of the hidden nature of everyone, and the gluttonous greedy mouth always inadvertently drives you to subconsciously look for a richer and more abundant goal than what is in front of you. And never stop the footsteps of servants. However, after walking in the wind and rain like this, after coming out for a long time, I often forget what my original intention of clarity was, and the definition of the so-called "better things" has become more and more blurred......
The shining sun was shining, like gold and silver, Taiping supported Li Dan all the way to the top of the throne, and then turned around, and his soft face suddenly revealed hidden fortitude.
This big guard of honor is over, Taiping turned around and walked down the jade steps steadily, led it in front of the ministers, and knelt down to Li Dan first: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live-" shouted loudly.
Even Longji, who was behind him, also lifted his robe and knelt down, answering the sound of peace, and paying homage to his father. At this moment, it seemed that the frequency of a heartbeat inside him was really clear to him. That thought, that mood, after all, has been steadily precipitated! When he kowtowed, Longi's eyes closed, and the body accumulated and carried too many emotions and too many complicated things that could not be sorted out, and finally all of them came out of the body and dispersed. I felt that this body was like a puff of light smoke, and suddenly it was not so real.
With the leadership of these two people, the ministers in the palace also reacted one by one, and after being stunned for a moment, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to meet their new emperor.
The prosperous Tang Dynasty, which was gloomy and gloomy under the clouds, has been chaotic for many years, and has suddenly become very precipitated. This boundless splendid country and this gorgeous prosperous era have since had an inexplicable sense of belonging to the destiny that has steadily come from the fading .......
In this way, Empress Wei single-handedly supported the sixteen-year-old prince Li Chongmao, who was on the throne, and was deposed as the emperor. Fortunately, his uncle and aunt did not embarrass him anymore, and he was soon re-demoted to King Wen; In the second year of Jingyun (711), he was renamed King Xiang.
And Li Dan, who restored the throne and called Tang Ruizong, when he first ascended the throne, the foundation also had something to shake.
Not long after Chongmao was deposed, his brother Li Chongfu, the eldest son of Zhongzong Li Xianshu, sent a false decree to Luoyang, the eastern capital, intending to follow the routine of his grandmother Luoyang to build the capital, form his own dynasty in the eastern capital, and announce that he has become the emperor in the world, and change the world to "Central Plains Kefu".
At the same time, Chongfu also named Ruizong Li Dan as the "emperor's step-uncle", and the former successor emperor Li Chongmao as the "emperor's younger brother".
But the established history will not repeat itself a second time in the same attitude, such a good dream has not been done for a few days, or has not really begun to be done, the officials left behind in Luoyang have already put down the rebellion of Chongfu as quickly as possible, even without the command and assistance of Chang'an. In the end, this bloody prince was defeated and died, and it seems that some absurd accession to the throne really became an absurd "rebellion"!
In this way, the net of the strain was swept out, and the former Tang Emperor Li Chongmao was also implicated and was transferred. Central, relegated to the locality. After less than a year, he died in Liangzhou, where he was stationed, at the age of 20. Afterwards, he was buried in Wugong Xiyuan.
……。
TANG Longzheng. Change is the largest and most successful political event in Chinese history. Change. It is far more than the famous Xuanwumen Change, Shenlong Zheng. The scale of the change is huge and widespread.
The most important thing for this beautiful and successful move is that Princess Taiping is well-planned and commanded, and Li Longji is neat and simple. The aunt and nephew cooperated with each other, and completed this perfect plan with the most careful thoughts, the most thoughtful deployment, the most accurate command, the most to the point of action, and the most neat action.
Even after a lapse of 100,000 years, we can still smell the shadow of the excitement and excitement of the year through the mottled official script and the yellowed words......
As the years of singing do not stop, all dynasties and dynasties, there will eventually be some pearl-like clear and brilliant things left behind in future generations, for the world to sigh and sigh, look forward to remember!
