Li Xian was shocked when he heard Song Zhimin's words, since he was demoted to Fangzhou, he can be said to be trembling, closing the door all day long, and not daring to say a word of nonsense. This Song Zhimin came from the Shendu, and Song Zhiwen was a scholar of the imperial court, who was selected by the emperor as a court attendant because of his outstanding appearance and dignified appearance, and was the emperor's confidant. Song Zhiwen was also born as a talent, dignified and talented, but this person blindly flattered Xue Huaiyi in order to seek glory, Li Xian didn't like Song Zhiwen very much.

Song Zhimin looked around, Li Xian saw that he was looking around because he wanted to take away others, but this Song Zhimin was Song Zhiwen's cousin, if this Song Zhimin's behavior was the same as Song Zhiwen's, it was the next step to take others away. So Li Xian said to Song Zhimin: "There are no outsiders here, only my wife and children, if you have something to say, don't worry." ”

Wei's, Li Chongrun, Li Xian'er, Li Xianxian, Li Xianhui, and Li Bao'er also listened quietly, wanting to hear what Song Zhimin was going to say when he was so cautious. Song Zhimin saw that Li Xian did not dismiss everyone, so he said to Li Xian: "I happened to hear someone say to my cousin Song Zhimin in Shendu: 'If this thing is successful, you and I are above ten thousand people, if it doesn't work, I will blame the Luling King brothers at this time, anyway, the Queen Mother has long wanted to get rid of the Luling King brothers.'" I was very shocked to hear this in secret, so I found the tutor overnight and told the tutor about it, and when the tutor heard this, he immediately set off with me and came to Fangzhou to inform His Highness, but I don't know if the news was leaked or what happened, and along the way, the master and I have been chased and killed by thieves. ”

Li Xian heard this, and secretly complained in his heart, only that he was conscientious, but he was also remembered by capable people, and he didn't want his mother to be so ruthless, he had long heard that the first prince Li Hong and Li Xian were all killed by their own mothers, that Li Hong and Li Xian were Li Xian's brothers, and they were all born to the Empress Wu, but they didn't want to have such an end.

Wu Zetian and Gao Zong had four sons and two daughters:

The eldest son, Li Hong, is generous, humble and benevolent, and is really a talent for governing the country, and has won the trust of Gaozong and courtiers. However, he was very dissatisfied with his mother's dictatorship, and violated his mother's will many times, and Wu Zetian secretly murdered Li Hong with poisonous wine in order to clear the obstacles, and died at the age of 24. After his death, Mr. Gao was heartbroken and posthumously named him the emperor, nicknamed "filial piety".

The second son Li Xian, after the death of the crown prince Li Hong, Li Xian was named the crown prince, and his quick thinking naturally became a stumbling block for Wu Zetian, so Wu Zetian deposed him as a concubine and was demoted to Bazhou on the grounds of conspiracy. Later, it was rumored that he was secretly killed by Wu Zetian at the age of 29. After his death, he posthumously sealed the crown prince.

The third son Li Xian, after Li Xian was deposed, Li Xian succeeded as the crown prince, and then succeeded to the throne, Li Xian was only the emperor for two months and was deposed as the king of Luling by Wu Zetian with an excuse.

The fourth son, Li Dan, was succeeded by Li Dan, the deposed queen of Luling, but Li Dan was Wu Zetian's puppet emperor, and Wu Zetian didn't even let Li Dan participate in court politics. Later Wu Zetian abolished Li Dan, personally proclaimed himself emperor, and changed the name of the country to Da Zhou.

The eldest daughter, Princess Anding, when Wu Zetian was still Zhaoyi, in order to compete for power with the queen, Wu Zetian strangled his newborn daughter to death with his own hands, and then blamed the queen. Later, she was posthumously crowned Princess Anding.

The second daughter, Princess Taiping, won the favor of Gaozong and Wu Zetian. When she was eight years old, Princess Taiping became a Taoist priest in the name of praying for the blessing of her deceased grandmother, Mrs. Rongguo, and became a Taoist priest. Later, the Tubo Kingdom wanted to reconcile with Princess Taiping, but Gaozong and Wu Zetian did not want their daughter to marry Fanbang, so they built a Taiping Temple for them to live in, and rejected Tubo and his relatives on the grounds that Princess Taiping had become a monk.

Wei Shi listened and said to Li Xian: "Your Highness should be more careful in everything at this time, and must not be negligent. It's just that I don't know what that gang of thieves is trying to do to frame His Highness. ”

Li Chongrun asked Song Zhimin: "Brother Song, do you know who conspired to kill my father?" ”

Song Zhimin shook his head and said, "I just faintly heard these words outside the house, and I don't know who conspired, but my cousin Song Zhiwen was involved." And my parting without saying goodbye made them even more hateful, and I am afraid that these many interceptions along the way are inseparable from them. ”

Li Xianhui saw Song Zhimin's benevolence and righteousness, so she thanked Song Zhimin: "Thank you Song Gongzi for risking death to deliver the message!" ”

Song Zhimin hurriedly said to Li Xianhui: "Miss Xianhui is polite, it's just that my cousin is really not a benevolent and righteous person, and this action is to push my Song family into the abyss, and let my Song family bear the infamy of eternity, and I just did my duty of loyalty and filial piety." ”

Li Xian asked, "Could it be that Xue Huaiyi?" ”

Song Zhimin said to Li Xian with some surprise: "Then Xue Huaiyi has already been given to death by His Majesty the Emperor. ”

Li Xianyan was also very emotional, that Xue Huaiyi was the emperor's favored minister, relying on the emperor's favor, he was domineering, but he didn't want to end up like this.

Li Xian dismissed Song Zhimin, Song Zhimin saluted and retired, and glanced at Li Xianhui again before leaving, Li Xianhui saw Song Zhimin looking at her, and her face turned red again. After dismissing Song Zhimin, Li Xian said to Wei: "Could it be a member of the martial arts?" The martial arts family has long coveted my Li family. ”

Wei Shi heard Li Xian say that it might be someone from the Wu family, and he was also afraid, every time the emperor sent someone to visit, Li Xian and Wei Shi were panicked, and Wei Shi also knew Wu Zetian's methods.

Li Bao'er said: "Father doesn't need to be so alarmed, presumably this matter has been planned by those thieves for a long time, and I am afraid that I can't hide it." ”

Li Xianxian said: "The martial family has a huge influence in the court, at this time we should be friendly with the martial family, even if it is a thief framed, if the martial family is manpower to protect the father, maybe the father can escape this catastrophe." ”

Li Xian listened to Li Xianxian's words, nodded again and again, and said to Li Xianxian: "What Xianxian said is reasonable, you go and call Chang Chun quickly." ”

Li Xianxian saw that the situation was urgent, and Li Xian asked her to call Li Xiangchun again, but she didn't dare to delay, so she hurriedly left the main hall and went to find Li Xiangchun.

When Li Bao'er saw that Li Xianrang asked Li Xiangchun to come, she also guessed seven or eight points in her heart, I am afraid that this is to take Li Xiangchun as a hostage and marry the martial family. He was very dissatisfied when he went down, and knelt down and asked Li Xiandao: "Is my father going to marry Sister Changchun to someone from the Wu family?" ”

Li Xian sighed and said, "So far, there is no other way. Shang Chun is filial piety, and he is also ingenious, presumably the people of the martial arts family will not refuse this family business. ”

Li Xianhui was also dissatisfied when she heard this, and knelt down to Li Xian and said: "When my father was in Shendu, he had already married the newly born sister Xianqing to the right Jin Wuwei general Wei Wan, just to get the support of Jin Wuwei, but I didn't want Sister Xianqing to die early, now our family is far away in Fangzhou, and there is no fault, why do you want to marry Sister Xiangchun to the Wu family?" ”

Li Xian'er on the side heard that she wanted to marry Li Xiangchun to the martial family, and she was even more unwilling, so she knelt down to Li Xian and said: "If the people of the martial family are bent on putting us to death, it is definitely not something that can be changed by a sister of Xiangchun, why do you want to push Sister Xiangchun into the fire pit?" "Li Xian'er and Li Xianxian have been learning needlework and embroidery with Li Xiangchun, and their relationship is naturally very good.

Li Chongrun knelt down and said: "Father, I have studied martial arts with Xianhui and Bao'er, if the thief comes, I and the other three will work hard to protect my father, but this matter is really inappropriate." ”

Wei Shi said to Li Chongrun, Li Xian'er, Li Xianhui, and Li Bao'er: "Shangchun has also reached the age when it is time to talk about marriage, wouldn't it be better for your father and me to set a marriage for him?" Besides, the people of the Wu family are in a high position in the court, I heard that Wu Yanhui, the king of Chen, has not yet married, Wu Yanhui is the son of Wu Chenghei and the grandson of Wu Yuanshuang, but he is also a good match. ”

Li Xianhui said: "Wu Chengsi is the emperor's nephew, and Wu Sansi have won the favor of the emperor, the emperor has repeatedly wanted to establish Wu Chengsi as the prince, it is the opposition of the ministers in the court headed by Di Renjie that he did not establish himself as the prince, Wu Chengsi wantonly brutalized Zhongliang, and killed my Li surnamed clansmen, and the father and son of Li Zhen, the king of Yue, raised troops to fight for martial arts, which was framed by Wu Chengsi and raised troops to protect himself. Then he said to Li Xian: "Father, have you forgotten that the death of my uncle Li Shangjin, Li Sujie and others was framed by Wu Chenghei?" ”

Li Bao'er said: "There are many people from my clan surnamed Li who died at the hands of Wu Chenghe, why do you want to marry Sister Changchun to the son of Wu Chenghe?" ”

Li Xian saw that every word you and I said to the children, they didn't want to marry the martial family, and they were also very entangled in their hearts. Wei Shi saw that Li Xian was entangled and couldn't make up his mind, so he said: "My son doesn't want to talk nonsense, that Wu Yanhui is not Wu Chenghei, and that Wu Chenghei has never won the position of the crown prince, and he is depressed all day long, and he doesn't ask about the affairs of the court." What's more, that Xiangchun is not my own child, what's wrong with giving up Xiangchun and saving my whole family? It's better for Chang Chun to marry Wu Yanhui than to marry those border generals who are alone and keep empty houses, right? The marriage of Shangchun also made her loyal and filial piety, what's wrong? ”

Li Xianhui saw Wei's words, and said: "Mother only thinks that Sister Xiangchun is not her own, so she can give it up, although we are not born to the same mother, we are also half-sisters, how can we push Sister Xiangchun into the fire pit and protect us?" ”

Li Bao'er said: "If the thief is deliberately framed and has been planning a conspiracy for a long time, can it be avoided just by marrying Sister Xiangchun to the martial family?" ”

Li Chongrun said: "It's a big deal to fight to the death, and the jade will be burned." ”

Li Xianyan was furious when he heard this: "You are all my sons and daughters, how can you dare to say so much about the things I decide!" Do the sages you read on a daily basis teach you to be so unfilial? Get out of here! Otherwise, the family law is waiting! ”

Li Chongrun and the others saw Li Xian angry, even though they were very dissatisfied in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say more, and immediately withdrew from the main hall one by one with reluctance on their faces.

The four of them walked out of the main hall and saw Li Xianxian and Li Xiangchun walking from the side compartment at this time, so they greeted them.

Li Xianhui and the four of them told Li Xianxian and Li Xiangchun what happened just now, Li Xiangchun couldn't stop crying when she heard it, Li Xianxian only said that she had an idea that hurt Li Xiangchun, and immediately ran towards the main hall.

Li Xianxian walked into the main hall, knelt down in front of the hall, and cried to Li Xian: "Father, what I just said is a joke, why do you want to marry Sister Xiangchun to that Wu Yanhui?" ”

Seeing Li Xianxian's sadness crying, Wei couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward to help Li Xianxian and said to Li Xianxian: "Xianxian, I and your father are reluctant to do this, but there is no other way to do it now, and only in this way can we keep our family!" ”

Li Xian took a big sip of wine and sighed: "Why don't I feel sorry for Changchun? It's just that so far, that's the only way to go! ”

Li Xianxian cried and asked: "I often follow Sister Xiangchun to learn embroidery, Sister Xiangchun is generous and filial piety, why is it like this?" I still want to marry those thieves of the Wu family, the people of the Wu family have long wanted to replace our Li family, and they still killed less of our Li family? ”

When Li Xian heard that Li Xianxian dared to say this, this was the emperor's taboo, and he was furious and said, "You give me a quick retreat!" Say more, the family law is waiting! ”

Li Xianxian knelt down again and cried to Li Xian: "This matter is all because of me, if my father insists on marrying the martial family, then marry the immortal to the martial family!" I would like to marry into the martial arts family for Sister Shangchun! ”
