Chapter 192: The Bitter Meat Scheme, the Taiping Dynasty asked Empress Wei
When Empress Wei supported the new emperor to officially ascend the throne, changed from the queen to the queen mother, and listened to the affairs of the government and assisted in affairs for only a few days, when the situation was not yet stable, Princess Taiping of Zhenguo suddenly appeared in the court!
Because Taiping was given the right to participate in politics as early as the Zhongzong period, no one in the ministers dared to question her appearance. And the princess is fierce and majestic, like the head of the ministers!
The new emperor who sat high on the dragon chair felt a deficit in his heart, but he quickly adapted to the tense atmosphere. He has always understood such a truth in his heart, since he was suddenly supported to the throne, his so-called emperor career who seems to be glamorous and powerful, but is actually like a puppet with no real power at all, has begun! In this way, although he bears the name of the emperor, he cannot have the essence of the emperor, and he has to be frightened and precarious every day.
Therefore, in the face of his aunt's sudden appearance, the emperor was not much surprised. Empress Heng Wei just used him to exercise her own real power under his guise; And my aunt's heart will not be pure.
There are so many people who want to exercise their real power under the guise of the emperor and override the emperor! Therefore, he did not thank Taiping for this imminent coercion of Empress Wei.
It was Wei Zheng, Taiping's appearance really shocked her! She was shocked why Princess Taiping, who had been born for a long time, suddenly appeared and put on a fierce battle! The more such a moment of the limelight, the more smart people should continue to lower their posture into the dust, and where can they make a blatant and unkind move? And what puzzled Empress Wei was that even if this Li Tang was really dissatisfied with her interference in politics and wanted to break the net and fight hard, why did only Taiping come, but there was no king Li Dan?
Could this be that Princess Taiping, a woman who understands righteousness and acts alone? According to Li Lingyue's character, this is not impossible...... But this only daughter of Emperor Wu has never been a person who only understands righteousness and does not pave the way for herself, saying that she risked the world's disapproval to come to her Empress Dowager Wei alone and obviously sent to death, which really doesn't make sense!
In the end, Wei Zheng was still a little more modest, and he didn't think about it further for a while, but only put his mind on Princess Taiping, who suddenly appeared and caught her off guard, and wondered what kind of chess the Li Tang royal family had made.
Taiping walked steadily, not slowly, not in a hurry, after marching all the way to the main hall, he only bowed to the emperor who was sitting on the dragon chair, but ignored the Empress Dowager Wei behind the curtain, and regarded it as air.
Among the courtiers, although the supporters of Empress Wei were intimidated by the prestige of Princess Taiping, they only thought that it was now the world of Empress Wei and the court of the Wei family, so they had the courage to step out of the ranks, and said sharply to Taiping: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, why don't you kneel when you see the emperor, why don't you bow when you see the queen mother!" This is admittedly not the slightest politeness, and the voice and expression are all the same.
Taiping didn't take any cat or dog into his eyes, he didn't look at him, and a cold smile came to his lips, and then his cold gaze suddenly met Wei Zheng who looked at her in the curtain, and the wide sleeves embroidered with brilliant golden silk insects suddenly raised and pointed directly at Wei Zheng!
Empress Wei was taken aback.
Taiping had already stared at the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty and asked: "This palace has come to this court today, and it is my own nephew who is not at ease!" So dare to ask all of you, since the emperor has ascended the throne, why does this Wei still have to listen to the government? This voice was by no means a questioning tone, and although the end note was lightly raised, it was full of cramped coldness.
There was silence among the ministers and the military, who dared to answer the clear and aggressive question of Princess Taiping? It was the one who stood up with his aura before, and at this moment, he couldn't help but tremble with his legs, silently retreated into the queue and didn't dare to make a big breath!
This deathly silent atmosphere is a great test of people's minds, and the cold and icy sense of oppression will drive everyone present crazy...... After a long time like this, it was naturally Empress Wei, who was sitting steadily behind the curtain, to break the embarrassment, and only she could have the courage to break the embarrassment.
"The emperor is still young, and he can only succeed if he is assisted by my mother-in-law." The clear and dignified voice is no less cramped than the aggressive peace, but there is no lack of slowness and rationality and an idle attitude between the voices.
"Joke!" Taiping hooked her lips, and when her bright eyes flowed, a touch of brilliance seemed to be enveloped in her eyes, "Since ancient times, women should keep to themselves, and no talent is virtue, when did you have this curtain to listen to politics?" At this moment, he turned his gaze and glanced at the minister of the first palace, "Even if the princess is given the right to participate in politics, she also made a cautious suggestion when the emperor summoned her, how can the queen be so openly involved in the harem now?" "The sound wave is still steady, unhurried, slow and thorny.
Listening to Taiping's words, Wei Zheng was just disdainful in his heart, and a sneer slowly appeared on his lips, and his lips slowly opened: "According to the princess's meaning, then the Heavenly Holy Spirit Emperor is not orthodox!" The voice was steep, and it was raised high, like a cold light sword out of its sheath.
knew that Empress Wei would use Emperor Wu as a reason to prevaricate herself, and Taiping had never seen the most flaunting of her mother as a reason in her heart. There is only one mother, if everyone can become Wu Zetian, what kind of terrible will this world be? Time, location, people and factors are indispensable, and the road can only be carved out by itself, so how can we have the heart to copy every step of the way that others have taken? Why do so many people not understand this truth!
Taiping's voice did not change, and his expression became more and more dignified: "The imperial brother has already said when he first ascended to the throne that the Emperor of the Heavenly Holy Spirit was to turn the tide and ascend the throne as the emperor amid the instability of the national situation and the turbulent situation; After the country was rectified, he handed over the throne to the imperial brother, which is really a credit to the country. He turned his eyes and looked at the courtiers again, his eyes contained sacredness and solemnity, and then he turned to Empress Wei again, "But now, even if the emperor is young, there is still the king here, but where is the turn of the queen to hang the curtain and assist the government?" "Xuan Yiyi, and Wei Hou-for-tat, "You proposed to ascend the throne as the emperor of the Emperor Zetian Holy Spirit to say things, do you also want to follow the example of your mother to ascend the throne as the emperor!" ”
As soon as these words were settled, they brought a shock to the air in the hall! The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty fell to their knees, and this inadvertent aura shocked everyone present with relatives and cold sweats.
"This palace has never had such a heart!" Wei Zheng behind the curtain also suddenly followed suit, and stood up very neatly, "This palace is the wife of the former emperor and the emperor's mother-in-law, so naturally she has the right to assist the government!" ”
"Then you should also assist the emperor together with King Xiang, not the queen alone!" Taiping Dignified interrupted her with a loud voice.
The atmosphere of saber rattling, the smell of gunsmoke and war in the air changed from faint to deep. The new emperor on the dragon chair was silent, silently looking at his aunt and aunt like an outsider.
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter from among the courtiers.
Taiping turned around, and looked at the minister who stood up oppressively.
This minister is also the person whom Empress Wei has always relied on as a confidant, and he is the old department of the East Palace when Zhongzong Li Xian was still the prince: "Her Royal Highness the princess moved out of the prime minister to talk about things, but she didn't think about it." His attitude was not cold, and he was gentle with a sharp spirit, "King Xiang is a little uncle, and Empress Dowager Wei is a sister-in-law, where is there a little brother-in-law and sister-in-law to assist the government together?" "The words that seem to be logical, that is, the jaw is bowed," is naturally to be avoided. Convenient...... Only the Empress Dowager Wei should be left as an auxiliary minister, do you say that this is the case? "I have done enough to find out what I can't do wrong.
Taiping's sharp eyes had already seen through his thoughts under the appearance of warm water, and his disgust for this kind of person who was inconsistent with the outside and the outside, and the yang and the yin were even more disgusted: "Where are you from, how can our Li family's affairs have the share of you, a person with a foreign surname!" The oppressive voice continued to cramp, and the edge was sharp and clear, and there was no tactfulness in it.
This sentence was clearly a rebuke to the minister, but it was actually said to Empress Wei. Taiping means that the court of the Li family and the world of the Li family, that is, the emperor should naturally be assisted by the prince of the Li family when he is young. The meaning of such heavy words is naturally known to everyone.
The minister's face was full of food, and he continued to kneel down in a daze.
Behind the curtain, Wei Zheng's face changed! Taiping's words that he didn't like to listen to, she was deeply angry.
"Huh!" Taiping suddenly hooked his lips and sneered, and softened his tone when he turned his eyes, "But what this adult said just now is really reasonable, since the uncle and sister-in-law want to avoid suspicion, naturally only one person will be left to assist the government, so it should be to leave the prime minister, and the Empress Dowager Wei will return to the harem to live for a long time!" ”
"Joke!" Empress Wei's voice was also smiling, and her tone was quite contemptuous, "This palace is the queen of the former emperor and the emperor's mother-in-law, and it is ...... to stay in this palace."
"That's the joke!" Taiping slowly combed the tassels in his ears, and interrupted Empress Wei again, "King Xiang is the younger brother of the former emperor and the emperor's uncle, this is the Li family's country, how should you leave you with a foreign surname Wei!" The previous words were still soft, and finally the voice of Zhao Zhao was suppressed.
Empress Wei was shocked by this, and couldn't hold it anymore, so she suddenly lifted the bead curtain and walked out with a big stab. She took out the queen mother's share of domineering, and ordered someone to take Princess Taiping into Beiyuan!
What is Princess Taiping's identity and status in Datang? Even Empress Dowager Wei personally made the will, but still no one dared to do it.
However, it was too peaceful, and she lost her courage as a princess, restrained the edge of her body, was neither humble nor arrogant, and was willing to leave the hall of the main hall and walk steadily into the North Garden step by step. Before stepping out of the threshold and facing the edge of the door, she suddenly turned around again, and called the courtiers with justice and awe: "Zhu Aiqing is my Li Tang's minister of humerus and Geng Jie's person. Nowadays, Empress Dowager Wei has bad intentions, her heart is different, and her face is also hateful! May all the princes be grateful for the great grace of the emperor, show the courage to stand up to the heavens and the earth, eradicate all evils, clear away dissenting hearts, and protect the emperor and Li Tang! ”
……
This trip to Daming Palace is such a result.
This is a plan made by Princess Taiping and Li Longji early on.
Taiping deliberately exposed the fact that Empress Wei was not qualified to hang the curtain in public, which made her people scattered; At the same time, he angered Empress Wei, citing his own imprisonment as an excuse, which further aroused the dissatisfaction of the ministers of the DPRK and China against Empress Wei and questioned Empress Wei's original intention.
But isn't this self-inflicted? At the beginning, Empress Wei did not listen to Shangguan Wan'er's advice, she refused to take the way of Huairou, although she abolished the so-called Zhongzong edict drafted, and the emperor hung the curtain himself, but this is a double-edged sword, because there is no edict of Zhongzong, her curtain is no longer orthodox, and in the face of Taiping's persecution, she is missing a talisman.
Everything is too much, and fate is bound to end early! The golden rule of heaven is clear in its heart.
