"Mother, the position of the crown prince must be re-run, and others will not consider it."

Li Xian's reaction was half a beat slower, but after coming back to his senses, he categorically rejected the suggestion, Wu Zetian squinted his eyes slightly, and didn't say much, only smiled, "Okay, it's good if you have an opinion, it's rare to see Ran'er and Xianhui'er today, you keep the two juniors for me, and talk to me for a while." ”

This is a small request, and Li Xian naturally will not refuse.

But Li Ran was keenly aware that the reason why this old fox kept him was definitely not that simple.

Sure enough, after Li Xian left, Wu Zetian withdrew the shadow puppet show and retired the servants, and only the three of them were left in the house.

"When Wu Qingying returned to Luoyang, she saw me."

With just one sentence, Li Ran suddenly realized.

"No wonder, I wonder why she persuaded Wu Chengxun and Wu Congqian so quickly to invest their family property in the mountains where birds don't, it turns out that this is the emperor's idea."

"Hehe, if you want to give my martial artist a way to live, I naturally have to let these juniors firmly grasp ...... If Nawu County is successful, my martial arts family will be able to worry about it for a hundred years. ”

Look, with this eyesight, if she is twenty years younger, how can there be anything to do with her husband.

"You have helped my martial arts family a lot, I have to thank you."

Li Ran suddenly raised her eyebrows, with her identity, she would never verbally thank you so insincerely.

Sure enough, Wu Zetian's attendant took a sandalwood box, "This thing can be regarded as a gift for the unborn doll in Xian Hui'er's womb, alas, I don't know if I can have the opportunity to hug this child." ”

These words actually feel like she is gone, and it seems that she knows her body in her heart.

"The Emperor Taishang will live a long life."

Li Ran smiled slightly and sent his blessings, this empress of the ages has lived enough.

When I opened the box, I was stunned...... What was contained inside turned out to be a small jade sword.

Only the size of the palm, polished very round, it is indeed like a child's toy, just look at the year, it seems that some are far away, and the material is also average.

Wouldn't it, this knocking on the door like this?

Li Ran took a closer look at the jade sword, and there was indeed nothing surprising about it.

“…… Why, I think I'm shabby. ”

"What's the matter, whatever the Emperor Taishang sends, it's all friendship."

Li Ran doesn't like to open his eyes and talk nonsense, so he gives a meaningful smile to experience it himself.

"Hehe, you kid, although I am dizzy with old eyes, I am not going to take something to prevaricate you, this jade sword was given to Emperor Taizong by Emperor Taizu, at that time, it happened to be after the change in Xuanwumen!"

The divine turn made Li Ran's eyebrows instantly sharpen!

The words "Xuanwumen" have always been forbidden words in the Tang Dynasty, even if they are rarely mentioned in the history books, after all, cannibalism is not a good thing.

Wu Zetian suddenly mentioned this matter today, could it be that he has another deep meaning?

It's the point in time!

"And this jade sword, Emperor Taizong gave it to Chongrun when he was born, when he made him the emperor's grandson, and then I took it."

Wu Zetian saw that he seemed to have an understanding, smiled slightly, and said another fact.

Li Ran's scalp suddenly exploded, "Emperor Tai, this gift is too valuable, I can't afford it, you better give it to others." ”

The subtext has been revealed, this jade sword represents the heir to the throne of the Li family!

Wu Zetian is testing himself...... If the child in Xian Hui'er's belly is a boy, does she have any intention of becoming a prince?

"What, you're troublesome?"

Smart people don't need to speak thoroughly, just one look, Wu Zetian was slightly disappointed, shook his head and said, "It's a pity that this Tang Dynasty has a century-old foundation." ”

"The Emperor Taishang doesn't have to be alarmist, the emperor has worked hard after succeeding to the throne, even if he can't be called the first emperor of the ages, he is definitely a good emperor, and Brother Chongrun is smart and studious, and he is also the best heir, not to mention the unstable foundation for a hundred years."

Li Ran retorted on the spot, this Wu Zetian was absolutely nitpicking, or he had pressed Li Xian's father and son for decades, and looked down on the two of them from the bottom of his bones.

"Alas, since I have talked about this, I will spread the words, anyway, my old bones, I don't have a few days to live."

Wu Zetian sighed, looked at Li Ran and Xian Hui'er, who had long been dumbfounded, and said lightly, "Xian'er is kind-hearted, and it is okay to be a gentleman of Shoucheng, I expect him to raise the prestige of my Tang Dynasty, and I have to have the help of my powerful ministers, he is finally lucky, and you are a genius in this day, in the future, your name will definitely be among them, for Xian'er, I am not worried." ”

"But Xian'er is not young, nearly half a hundred years old, and he is working hard, when he asked me for peace for most of the past six months, I obviously felt that his spirit was much weaker than when he first returned to Luoyang."

Li Ran was silent and couldn't refute it.

Age is always the biggest opponent of human beings, with the current level of health and medical care, fifty years old is a hurdle, after this age of knowing the destiny of heaven, one more day is earned.

Moreover, Li Xian was also poisoned by Wei, although he took the antidote to restore his health, but whether the toxin can be fully excreted from the body has to be questioned, and various factors are superimposed, and the spirit of the old man has indeed weakened.

"As for the heavy run...... Emperor Taizong is afraid that he will lose his eyes. ”

Wu Zetian suddenly smiled coldly, "That's right, this kid is indeed smart enough, and he knows how to forbear, just like Taizong himself, but he doesn't have the kind of measure that Emperor Taizong has." ”

"Emperor Taishang, I'm afraid you're biased."

Li Ran was blunt, shook his head and said, "When the eldest brother was in Hedong Dao, if he was really blinded by hatred, he didn't have to obey the holy decree, and he would not be subject to the military orders abroad, he insisted on killing the entire martial family, and the military power was in his hands, so he would kill him." ”

"Hehe, if he disobeyed his orders at that time, fell into injustice, and you were in Hedong Dao Town, he weighed the pros and cons and gave up, it was a rational choice, and it had nothing to do with measurement."

Unexpectedly, the two would quarrel because of Li Chongrun's character.

Li Ran laughed, he didn't expect Wu Zetian to be so serious when he was old...... Regardless of whether her opinion is correct or not, her ass is already sitting crooked.

has been imprisoned for ten years, and he will definitely look at people with colored glasses from his bones.

"What, do you think I've wronged him?"

Wu Zetian seemed to be smiling, obviously a little moved.

“…… Wechen believes in his eyes! Li Ran also looked serious, it was impossible to make concessions on the issue of principle.

"Huh, your eyes? How long have you been in contact with him, some people, even if they get along day and night, they can't help but see the true face. ”

Wu Zetian's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, and he suddenly waved his hand, signaling Li Ran and the others to follow, and walked to a room stacked with sundries in the depths of the palace, and pushed the door open, and there was a musty smell inside.

How long has it been since it opened?

Looking at the dust on the deadbolt, Li Ran became interested in his heart.

This girl didn't bring many things with her when she moved out of the palace, but she brought all the things in the house, obviously these things are very important, so if they are important, why are they piled up in this inconspicuous place to grow mold.

When I raised my eyes and looked around the house, I was even more stunned.

Inside turned out to be ...... Book!

A room full of scrolled books, each of which was tightly covered with muslin cloth and neatly arranged.

"These are the records of the Zongren Mansion."

"Zongren Mansion?!"
