After Li Zhi returned to Beijing in September, he almost no longer went to the Baifu Hall and Daji Hall to visit Empress Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, but Wu Zhaoyi followed the etiquette and went to ask for peace on time.

Wang and Xiao saw Wu Zhaoyi with a big belly again, and they gritted their teeth in anger.

Queen Wang also ordered Xiaoyue to send the puppet to Yeping and Xiaoxiong and bury them in the Chengxiang Palace.

But Ye Ping and Xiao Xiong feedback: "Chengxiang Hall has strengthened its guards, and it is impossible to start, and after the curse doctor Xu Shengchou casts the curse, these things have lost their effectiveness against Chengxiang Palace. ”

Queen Wang asked the witch Xie Jiangli again, and Xie Jiangli said: "It is difficult for the grass people's spells to be effective when they are implemented outside the palace, and they must set up a magic field in the palace to perform the curse to be effective!" ”

The queen was worried that someone would denounce her, so she had to give up. In order to protect her daughter's future, Mrs. Liu, the wife of Wei, took the initiative to learn the art of aversion to victory from Xie Jiangli, and prepared to enter the palace to carry out the curse.

On the nineteenth day of the first month of the sixth year of Yonghui, Li Zhi made another political move in favor of Wu Zhaoyi, canonizing the two-and-a-half-year-old prince Li Hong as the acting king, and Li Xian, who had just completed the moon, as the king of Lu. Although it was only a matter of time before the prince was crowned king, the timing of the canonization was delicate.

The crown prince Li Zhong was twelve years old this year, and it was still early to perform the adult crown ceremony according to the etiquette, but the Taiwei faction couldn't wait, and asked Li Zhong to add yuan to test Li Zhi's attitude.

Although Li Zhi guarded against his uncle, he didn't want to tear his face with his uncle, and still wanted to give the world a feeling of harmony and respect between the monarch and the minister, so he attached great importance to the recital and decided to vigorously organize the celebration of the crown prince's Canadian dollar service.

After careful arrangements, on 5 February, Li Zhong's Canadian Dollar Costume Celebration was held in a grand and successful manner, and Li Zhi issued the Crown Prince's Canadian Dollar Costume Celebration Edict as usual, giving the five grades of civil and military affairs at home and abroad the first rank of the official rank, and he drank for three days.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang and others were so happy at the meeting that they couldn't keep their mouths together, and Liu Zheng also calmed down a little.

Unexpectedly, only three days later, Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi took actions that surprised the Taiwei faction.

Wu Zhaoyi said to Li Zhi: "The concubine heard that Liu Zheng gave the Taiwei a carload of gifts in order to win over the Taiwei in order to make Li Zhong the crown prince!" The concubine thought that as long as she showed her sincerity to the Taiwei and personally went to his house to give gifts and show her closeness, the Taiwei would not fail to give His Majesty face! ”

Li Zhi clapped his hands and smiled: "Wow, Liu Zheng gave him one car, and I gave him ten cars, I don't believe he will refuse me!" ”

Li Zhi left his eldest grandson Wuji to talk after the dispersal of the dynasty, saying that he would go to his uncle's house tomorrow to talk about family life and enhance the feelings of his uncle and nephew. Of course, the eldest grandson Wuji was very happy, and went back to make careful preparations.

The next day, Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi took the golden chariot to the Taiwei Mansion together, followed by the guide car, the evil car and other honor guard cars, and also followed by ten cars loaded with gold, treasure, silk and brocade, which were given to the Taiwei as a meeting gift.

The eldest grandson Wuji and the favored concubine stood outside the door early and waited, and when they saw the emperor's honor guard from a distance, they immediately bowed down to greet them, Li Zhi got out of the car and hurriedly helped Wuji up, and ordered everyone to be exempted.

Wu Zhaoyi also got out of the car and paid homage to the eldest grandson Wuji, and ordered Zhang Neishou and Pan Changshou to give Wuji ten treasure cars to Wuji, and then sent them into the courtyard of Taiwei's mansion.

The eldest grandson Wuji originally thought that Li Zhi was treating himself as the Duke of Zhou, so he was very happy, but he didn't think that he was coming for Wu Zhaoyi, and his heart suddenly cooled, but he also had to force a smile. When he saw Wu Zhaoyi giving ten carts of gifts, he was shocked again, thinking that this woman was clever and clever, and she couldn't deal with it carelessly.

Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi entered the hall and sat on the upper seat, the eldest grandson Wuji and the favored concubine sat on the east side of the lower seat, and the praiser shouted: "Wine!" "Maids and servants walked in a row, placing spring wine and delicacies on the table.

The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said: "The eldest grandson of the Taiwei minister said that His Majesty has come to our mansion to make our mansion shine, and the ministers are overjoyed, and I would like to celebrate with a good wine!" ”

Li Zhi picked up the golden sword and said, "Respect for my uncle!" "Drink it all.

The eldest grandson Wuji, the three sons of the pet Ji and the pet Ji all got up and danced, shouting long live. The praisers shouted, "Take your seats!" And they were seated.

The silk and bamboo orchestra sounded, the dancers entered the singing and dancing, and Shang Shi went down to the table to toast the eldest grandson Wuji and other accompanying guests, and the praiser shouted: "The wine is here, stand up!" ”

After the escort arrives at the table, he bows again, then takes the wine and takes a seat respectfully. Li Zhi raised the wine to persuade him to drink, and accompanied the guests to stand up and return the salute.

After three rounds of drinking, the praiser shouted into the meal, and the eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, this is broken golden rice, yellow and white, fragrant, please taste it." ”

Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi picked up the ivory chopsticks and ate crushed golden rice while tasting delicacies such as vegetarian scales, hump roasting, steamed whole sheep, and roasted venison.

After eating, Li Zhi asked the eldest grandson Wuji: "What are the names of my uncle's three sons?" The eldest grandson Wuji replied: "The eldest grandson Yan, the eldest grandson Ze, and the eldest grandson Run." ”

Li Zhi said: "The rule of Yonghui, the people are peaceful, the people are rich, and there is the credit of my uncle." My uncle also explained the Tang Law one by one and wrote the "Tang Law Discussion", which greatly promoted the construction of the country's legal system. I want to commend you, and now I worship Changsun Yan, Changsun Ze, and Changsun Run as Chaosan doctors, please don't shirk! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji led the three sons to leave the seat to worship and dance to thank him, and the praiser shouted: "Wine!" "Maids and servants poured wine and put snacks such as purple dragon cakes and crystal cakes.

Everyone continued to enjoy the song and dance, and at the end of the song, Li Zhi calmly said to the eldest grandson Wuji: "The queen and I have been with me for more than ten years, and I have not given birth, and I am jealous with the concubines in the harem, which makes the harem unpeaceful, I want to abolish her and make Zhaoyi the queen......"

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at the favored concubine and his sons, and said: "Your Majesty is as kind to our family as an official, so why don't you hurry up and toast!" ”

The pet concubine and her sons stepped forward in turn to salute and toast Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi.

After drinking, Li Zhi continued: "Zhaoyi is of good character, talented and good-looking, his father is the founding father, his mother is a descendant of the royal family, and his blood is noble......"

The eldest grandson Wuji picked up the wine, got up and said to Wu Zhaoyi: "The first time Niangniang came to our mansion, the old minister would like to celebrate with a good wine!" ”

Wu Zhaoyi smiled awkwardly, picked up the golden sword and said, "Respect the Taiwei." He drank it all, and then said: "Taiwei is the chief hero of Lingyan Pavilion, and the world admires him, His Majesty and the concubine want to know what Taiwei thinks of the concubine, whether it is good or ......."

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty and Niangniang can come to our mansion in person, the old minister is very honored, and he should have given a few more glasses, but in the past few days, the cold air has been committed again, and his back hurts and coughs, cough!" ”

Li Zhi and Wu Zhaoyi looked at each other for a moment, the two got up to say goodbye, and the praiser shouted: "Drive back to the palace!" The eldest grandson Wuji's family got up to send them off.

In the BMW incense car returning to the palace, Li Zhi sighed and said: "Hey, it seems that Uncle doesn't agree to abolish the queen, and ten carts of gifts can't move him, what can I do?" ”

Wu Zhaoyi said: "He is a minister who cares for his life, and he may feel sorry for the first emperor after the abolition, and the concubine sent A-Niang to persuade him, and he may be able to move him with his old friendship!" ”

Two days later, Yingguo's wife Yang went to the Taiwei Mansion to visit the eldest grandson Wuji, and Kunlun Nu Ahei, who was as strong as an ox, accompanied him with a load of gifts, walking briskly and without panting.

Mrs. Yang came down from the red silk and was welcomed into the house by the favored concubine, and when she saw the eldest grandson Wuji, she made a noise, and Mrs. Yang ordered Ah Hei to send the gift to the side room, saying that it was a special product of Luoyang.

Mrs. Yang said: "The old man is the daughter of Yang Da, the royal family of the Sui Dynasty, and the adult was the deputy supervisor of the eastern capital of Yingdong, and he and Yang Su and Yu Wenkai jointly built the eastern capital Luoyang, so I brought a little Luoyang specialty to the Taiwei to taste." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Thank you for your concern, I haven't seen you for many years, my wife's body is still so healthy and tough, the old man is ashamed!" ”

Mrs. Yang said: "I think that back then, when Lao Shen married Lao Wu of our family, he was still the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Gaozu personally proposed marriage, Princess Guiyang presided over the wedding, all the expenses were paid by the state, and Taiwei also participated, what a beautiful thing it was!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said: "That's true, the samurai is loyal and diligent to the country, honest and thrifty, so Gaozu gave him such an honor." ”

Mrs. Yang said: "After marrying Lao Wu, Lao Shen gave birth to a total of three daughters, the eldest daughter married Helan Anshi, the third daughter married Guo Xiaoshen, and the second daughter is Zhaoyi. To tell the truth, the second daughter was opposed to entering the palace at the beginning, and it was she who insisted on entering the palace, but as a result, she had no real name with Taizong, but she just hung up the name of a talented person, and she deserved her name when she met today. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was silent, and Mrs. Yang said again: "It's not that the old body sells himself and boasts, this second daughter is indeed of good character, talent and appearance, and is by no means a demon girl like Daji, the old body has been seen since she was a child, and she asked the captain to be able to bear with it!" Lao Wuquan has knowledge, and he must be grateful. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "This matter is not up to the old man alone, the old man has to discuss with Chu Suiliang, Liu Zheng, Han Yuan, Lai Ji, Cui Dunli and others, and discuss it in the long run." ”

Mrs. Yang said: "As long as the captain agrees, everyone else can say it." I'll leave this matter to the captain! "The eldest grandson Wuji served tea to the guests.

After Mrs. Yang came back, she reported the situation to Wu Zhaoyi, and Wu Zhaoyi said: "Ah Niang, the Taiwei is obviously prevaricating and perfunctory you." I'll let Mr. Xu test the truth again! ”

Wu Zhaoyi sent Pan Changzhi to the outer court to meet with Wei Weiqing Xu Jingzong, and asked him to persuade the eldest grandson Wuji to agree to the abolition. Xu Jingzong was one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Mansion like Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, but he didn't have the same performance as Fang and Du, and he didn't have any friendship with the eldest grandson Wuji, so it was quite embarrassing for him to persuade the eldest grandson Wuji.

As expected, after Xu Jingzong arrived at the Taiwei Mansion, he was polite at first, and as soon as he mentioned the matter of establishing martial arts after the abolition, the eldest grandson Wuji raised his face and reprimanded Xu Jingzong, saying: "You are the son of Xu Shanxin, the servant of the Sui Dynasty Rite Department. What did you do? Kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, picking up a small life, how can there be a trace of literature? ”

He also said: "For the sake of Dona gold and silver treasures, you actually married your daughter to the son of the barbarian chief Feng An, and you lost the face of the Central Plains scholars!" You still want to co-opt me to do that unrighteous thing, hmph, it's really my shame to be an official in the same dynasty with a villain like you! Xu Jingzong left the Taiwei Mansion in a gloomy manner.

When Wu Zhaoyi learned of the attitude of the eldest grandson Wuji, he was very angry and blurted out: "Do you also want to be a lion?" I have an iron whip, an iron Lao, a dagger to wait for! I don't believe you can stand in my way. ”

Wu Zhaoyi took out the ten volumes of "Women's Rules" and flipped through them, Li Zhi came in, Wu Zhaoyi said: "This book talks about the good deeds done by the ancient concubines and guides us to learn, but it does not talk about the etiquette rules that internal officials should abide by. The concubine wants to write a etiquette rule and promulgate and enforce it in the harem, what does Jiuro think? ”

Li Zhi replied: "This should have been done a long time ago, the queen sat on the throne and couldn't move, the lady gave her a demonstration, stimulated her, and let her retreat!" Those who are interested will take the initiative to let the virtuous. ”

Wu Zhaoyi took off the red lacquer and painted the gold phoenix pattern purple pen from the purple bamboo pen, soaked it in the jade lotus leaf pen wash, dyed it with Hui ink, and then unfolded the ten-color paper and wrote the word "internal training". Li Zhi said: "Lady, work hard, I went to see the recital." ”

On the twenty-second day of February, Wu Zhaoyi wrote an article of "Internal Training" and sent it to Li Zhi to read.

Li Zhi said happily: "You did what the queen didn't do, it's good!" You're teaching her how to be a qualified queen! Hehe. ”

Li Zhi put his wrist on the jasper pine and bamboo arm, and personally wrote the preface to the "Internal Training", praising the "Internal Training" for being able to play the role of establishing the outline of Chen Ji, guarding the strict internal teaching, and assisting the Xuanwanghua, and required the harem officials to abide by it. After writing the preface, Li Zhi stamped the jade seal, and asked Wu Zhaoyi to stamp the Zhaoyi gold seal on the back, which was promulgated and implemented.

In addition to Wang and Xiao in the harem, the nine concubines, the twenty-seventh wife, the eighty-one royal maids, the six Shang and the twenty-fourth divisions and other internal officials all regarded the "Internal Training" as a classic and read it morning and evening. When Wang and Xiao saw this scene, they trembled with anger.

Queen Wang said: "This can only be written by the queen, written by Wu Zhaoyi, it is obviously an arrogance, but Your Majesty is protecting her!" Where is the main palace located? Concubine Xiao Shufei said: "Niangniang has to find a way to fight back, if she doesn't fight back, Ah Wu will kick her nose in the face." The queen sighed and shook her head.

The palace maids and eunuchs saw that the saint supported Wu Zhaoyi as the queen so firmly, and weighed the pros and cons, and they also took the initiative to turn to Wu Zhaoyi, ventilate for her, and curry favor with her.

Wu Zhaoyi calmly observed the development of the situation, full of confidence in his future, thinking of his uncle Wuji, he scoffed, and even felt that he was a mantis arm blocking the car, and he was beyond his strength!

Wu Zhaoyi said silently in her heart: You rejected me, so what? The road to success will not be smooth, winding and bumpy, but no one can stop me from moving towards the first sister of the harem. "Internal Training" is my salt! It is my firm belief to take the queen's path and let the queen have no way out! Those who stand in my way die, those who harm me die, the eldest grandson Wuji, you ask for more blessings!

Su Chang of the Baifu Hall came to the Chengxiang Hall to report that Queen Wang wanted to kill Wu Zhaoyi the year before last, saying that the white porcelain wine note with organs was stored by Queen Wang in a corner of the Siyi Library of the Qionglin Treasure Vault.

Lu Fengyan, a medicine boy from the Xi Official Bureau, also came to denounce that he had provided poison to Baifu Palace.

Wu Zhaoyi reported to Li Zhi, and Li Zhi took Zheng Henglu, Gong Zheng Luoxia, and Boyu Wenjian of the Inner Temple to search the Siyi Library, and sure enough, he found the white porcelain wine note in a corner.

Zheng Henglu took the white porcelain wine injection and showed it to Li Zhi, held down the hidden button under the kingfisher's tail, and the wine was poured out of the upper layer, and the button was released, and the wine was injected into the lower layer.

Li Zhi asked: "The physical evidence has been found, and the human evidence is also available, can the king and queen be convicted?" Luo Xia replied: "It's been two years, and although there are witnesses and physical evidence, the queen refuses to admit it, and she still can't be convicted!" ”

Li Zhi said unhappily: "If all the criminals are dead and refuse to admit their guilt, won't they all be able to get away with it?" ”

Luo Xia replied: "The queen is the lord of the harem, and the stakes are very important, Your Majesty must first make up your mind to persuade the foreign dynasty, and then it is not too late to convict!" Li Zhi nodded yes.

Let's say that the queen heard the wind outside, and felt that a catastrophe was coming, but she was helpless, and wept with Zhu'er all day long.

His mother, Mrs. Liu, had learned the art of disgust with the witch Xie Jiangli, and when she saw that her daughter was pitiful, she ignored the danger and set up an altar in a secluded place in the palace to cast spells, cursing Wu Zhaoyi, Li Hong and Li Xian.

One day in June, when the lotus flowers were in full bloom, they knew that they were screaming, and Cui Curtain and Xiaolan told Ah Hong and Ah Zi under the willow tree, saying that the wife of Wei Liu, who was using the technique of disgust against Wu Zhaoyi, and cursed Niangniang.

Ah Hong and Ah Zi hurriedly rushed back to Chengxiang Hall to report to Wu Zhaoyi, and Wu Zhaoyi got up and rushed to Ganlu Hall to report to Li Zhi. Li Zhi led the guards, honor guards, and Yi guards wearing a crown and a scarlet shirt to search the Baifu Palace.

When the queen saw the guards with swords coming in, she was frightened and called out to your majesty.

Li Zhi ignored her, and ordered the guards to check everywhere, and sure enough, they found the wife of Wei in a secluded side room, and searched for three Tong puppeteers, on which were written the birthdays of Wu Zhaoyi, Li Hong and Li Xian, and there were iron needles inserted in the puppet's heart, brain, and abdomen.

Queen Wang pestered Li Zhi and cried, Li Zhi shook her off and said angrily: "Everyone has stolen goods, what else do you have to say?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty witch curse, Empress Wei was framed! Today's matter, your mother is tired of winning in person, is there still a grievance? ”

Queen Wang was paralyzed on the ground and cried bitterly, Li Zhi issued an edict to expel the Liu family from the palace, take back the fish charm, and forbid the Liu family not to enter the palace again, and then waved his sleeves and left.

Wu Zhaoyi was very happy to hear the news, and gave heavy rewards to Cui Lian, Xiaolan, Su Changshi, Lu Fengyan and others who had made meritorious contributions to the whistleblower.

After more than ten days, Li Zhi and the Taiwei faction finally forced the Taiwei faction to give in, and on July 10, Liu Zheng, the uncle of the queen and the queen, was the assassin of Suizhou.

Liu Zheng set off from Chang'an to Fufeng County, Qi Governor Shi Yu Chengsu was in charge of the reception and talked with Liu Zheng. Yu Chengsu figured out the flattery and said that Liu Zheng leaked the forbidden Chinese, and as a result, Liu Zheng's crime was increased by one degree, and he was relegated to a farther place and went to Rongzhou as a assassin.

The edict to depose Liu Zheng was drafted and painted by Li Yifu, a member of the Zhongshu Society, so he became the target of the Taiwei faction and was moved to the left as Sima of Bizhou, but the edict was still copied in Zhongshu Province and had not yet been sent to Menxia Province.

Wang Dejian, a scholar in the middle school, recited the content of the edict to Li Yifu, Li Yifu was shocked and asked: "Dejianjun, the servant has been with your colleagues for many years, and the friendship is deep, thank you for informing the servant in time!" Jun is known as a wise man, but I don't know if there is any good way to help the servant stay in the capital? ”

Wang Dejian asked rhetorically: "Yifujun, what is the focus of today's government politics?" Li Yifu replied: "I heard that Your Majesty wants to abolish Wang Liwu, this should be the focus." ”

Wang Dejian said: "Yes, Your Majesty wants to make Wu Zhaoyi the queen but hesitates, the reason for this is that he is worried about the objections of the ministers. After you can make a decision, then you will naturally be able to turn disaster into blessing! ”

Li Yifu was overjoyed, and immediately began to write a statement suggesting that Liwu Zhaoyi be the queen, and wrote a draft first.

In the evening, Li Yifu replaced Wang Dejian on the night watch, took advantage of the dead of night, took out the draft and revised and copied a copy, and then knocked on the table, asking for the abolition of Wang Liwu to respond to the people!

Li Zhi opened the table and was very happy, and immediately summoned Li Yifu and had a cordial conversation with him.

Li Zhi asked, "What friends do you have in the court?" Li Yifu replied: "The relationship between the minister and his colleague Wang Dejian is very good, and the relationship between Dali Zhenghou Shanye, Dali Cheng Yuan Gongyu and the minister is also good!" ”

Li Zhi said: "Dali is in charge of the prison and the right department, and Dali is in charge of sentencing temple affairs, judging crimes and sentencing, you can make good use of it!" ”

Li Yifu replied: "Hou Shanye, Yuan Gongyu and the ministers have the same idea, and they also advocate the abolition of Wang Liwu, but they are all minor officials of the Shu clan, and they are not valued by the Guanlong nobles, and they have always been excluded and suppressed!" ”

Li Zhi smiled: "This doesn't matter, as long as you are tightly united, ants can also shake the tree!" I heard that you were moved to the left as Bizhou Sima? Don't be afraid, stay on top! Well done, I'll promote you! ”

After talking, he gave Li Yifu a bucket of pearls, and still stayed as a scholar in the middle school.

The next day, Li Zhi sent the table of the abolition of Wang Liwu to the political hall for discussion, but the result was a long discussion. Wu Zhaoyi sent Pan Changzhi to Li Yifu's home to comfort him and encourage him to continue to cheer up, and Li Yifu was very moved.

Under the organization of Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, the six King Kongs of the pro-martial faction were gradually formed, namely: Wei Weiqing Xu Jingzong, Yushi Dafu Cui Yixuan, Zhongshu Sheren Li Yifu, Zhongshu Sheren Wang Dejian, Dali Zhenghou Shanye, Dali Cheng Yuan Gongyu.

In August, the Taiwei faction held a private meeting, which was attended by Pei Xingjian of Chang'an and Yuan Gongyu of Dali. When it came to the emperor's deposing of Wang Liwu, everyone's enthusiasm suddenly rose, and Pei Xingjian also expressed his opinion, and said excitedly: "This move is tantamount to establishing Daji in business, and the disaster of the country will start here!" "Clearly oppose the abolition of Wang Liwu.

This Pei Xingjian was born in the famous Hedong Pei family, and is a student of the famous general Su Dingfang, which can be described as a good seed, and his father is Pei Renji, a general who can control the lion's skull.

Yuan Gongyu immediately reported the situation to Ying Guo's wife, Yang, with a special mention of this nascent opposition Pei Xingjian. Mrs. Yang told Wu Zhaoyi that Pei Xingjian was moved to the left as the governor of Xizhou.

After a period of hesitation, Li Zhi finally made up his mind to have a showdown with the prime ministers. One day after retiring from the court, Li Zhi summoned the chief lieutenant Sun Wuji, Sikong Li Tao, Shangshu's left servant shot Yu Zhining, and the right servant shot Chu Suiliang to the inner hall to discuss matters.

When ascending the stairs, Chu Suiliang said: "Your Majesty summoned us for the affairs of the Middle Palace, and since Your Majesty's idea has been decided, disobedience must be a capital crime." Taiwei is the uncle of the country, Sikong is a meritorious hero, and as a courtier, you can't let Your Majesty have the notoriety of killing your uncle and meritorious heroes! Servant from the grass thatch, no sweat and horses, but got a high-ranking official, by the first emperor to care, not to fight to the death, how can there be a face to see the first emperor in the ground! ”

Chu Suiliang said this passage because he was worried that Li Tao would express his support for the abolition of Wang Liwu, because Li Tao was not a member of the Taiwei faction, so he said that this passage was blocked in advance, and Li Tao was unwilling to turn his face with the Taiwei faction, so he had to say that he was ill.

When the three prime ministers entered the inner hall, Li Zhi did not speak immediately, but looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, hesitated again and again, and then said: "What a great crime, the heir is even greater." The queen has no children, Zhaoyi has a son, and now she wants to establish Zhaoyi as the queen, what do you think? ”

Yu Suiliang hurriedly replied: "The queen is from a famous family, and the first emperor married His Majesty, and he did not lose women's morality. The first emperor was seriously ill, and he held His Majesty's hand and said to the minister: I am a good son and a good wife, and I will pay Qing today. His Majesty personally accepted the sound of Deyin, and the words are still in his ears. The queen has not been heard of since then, and I am afraid that she cannot be abolished. The minister does not dare to bend His Majesty and disobey the orders of the first emperor! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and Yu Zhining were silent, and Li Zhi was displeased and got up to leave the hall.

The next day, Li Zhi asked Wu Zhaoyi to listen to the government behind the curtain, and raised the issue of abolishing Wang Liwu.

Han Ying wept and admonished: "The queen was married by the first emperor when His Majesty was in the domain, and now she has no sorrow, and she wants to be deposed, who is not afraid of it?" And the country has been abolished repeatedly, which is not a long-term technique. May Your Majesty be foolish and unscrupulous! "Li Zhi didn't accept it.

Chu Suiliang once again came out of the queue to admonish: "Your Majesty must change the middle palace, and the ministers please choose beautiful women among the world's wang clans, why must you have to be Wu?" Emperor Wu was the emperor before, how can the eyes and ears of the world be covered? After all generations, what will the world say about Your Majesty? May Your Majesty think twice. Foolish ministers are resentful, and their sins deserve death! ”

Chu Suiliang placed the ivory wat on the steps of the hall and said, "Return your majesty's wat and beg it to return to the field." "Untie your turban and prostrate and bleed. Li Zhi was angry and urged the guards to draw out.

Wu Zhaoyi couldn't help but shout behind the curtain: "Fight monsters, fight monsters, why don't you kill this monster!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji changed his taciturn general style, and hurriedly spoke: "Chu Suiliang was ordered by the first dynasty, and the punishment cannot be increased if he is guilty!" Yu Zhining has been silent, unwilling to choose to take sides.

The next day, Li Tao entered the palace to meet him, and Li Zhi sighed and said: "Hey, Chu Suiliang is stubborn and disobedient to the matter of Wu Zhaoyi. Chu Suiliang is a minister who cares about his life, if he can't do it, he has to stop! ”

Li Tao said: "This is Your Majesty's family matter, there is no need to ask outsiders!" "The voice outside the strings is that the issue of abolishing Wang Liwu is left to the emperor's decision, and there is no need to seek the opinion of the prime minister.

On behalf of the military, Li Zhi expressed his support for the emperor, and Li Zhi was overjoyed.

Xu Jingzong heard the courtiers talking in the court, and said: "Tian Sheweng has accumulated ten wheat, so he wants to change his wife, and the Son of Heaven is rich all over the world, and he has a queen, what is not to do?" Dissent! ”

Zheng Shaojian sent someone to pass the word to Wu Zhaoyi, and Wu Zhaoyi sent Pan Changshou to pass the word to Li Zhi.

On September 1, Wei Weiqing Xu Jingzong was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Cui Yixuan, the imperial historian, sent people to impeach Chu Suiliang for being rude, and on September 3, he deposed Chu Suiliang, the right servant of Shangshu, as the governor of Tanzhou. This promotion and depreciation accelerated the process of abolishing Wang Liwu.

On October 13, Li Zhi issued an edict: "Empress Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu conspired to commit poison, abolished as concubines, and removed their mothers and brothers from their names and exiled to Lingnan." "The fewer words, the bigger the matter, and this is what you are talking about.

Zhang Neishou went to the Baifu Hall to announce the edict, and the queen was panicked, but she was mentally prepared, and after kneeling down to listen, she was relieved, and said again in a daze: "Long live everyone!" Zhaoyi Chengen, death is the life of the concubine. ”

Zhang Neishou went to the Daji Hall to announce the edict again, and Concubine Xiao Shu was angry and scolded: "Ah Wu is cunning, I ended up in such a field!" May he give birth to me as a cat, and Awu as a rat, and choke his throat alive. ”

Xu Jingzong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, played: "Therefore, the official diploma of Wang Renyou, who is specially gifted, is still there, so that the remnants of the rebellion can be sheltered, and please remove it!" "Li Zhi played on the spot.

A few days later, hundreds of civil and military officials asked for the establishment of the Central Palace, and Li Zhi ordered Li Yifu and Wang Dejian to draft a book.

The two discussed repeatedly for a long time but couldn't write it, and said on their blushing faces: "Forgive Weichen for being stupid, this edict to the world, the ministers really can't find a reason to justify themselves if they want to break their heads!" ”

Li Zhi was surprised: "Have you asked Xu Shangshu?" ”

Li Yifu replied: "I discussed it with Xu Shangshu, and Xu Shangshu couldn't think of a satisfactory reason, because Niangniang was a talented person of the first emperor, and now she wants to be established as the queen of His Majesty. ”

Li Zhi put his beard in his hand, nodded and said: "This matter is very important, we must find a satisfactory reason to convince the world!" Even the eighteen scholars of the Qin Mansion can't write it, hey! I am her husband, and it is my duty to draft this book myself! Li Yifu and Wang Dejian were relieved, and they retreated with three shouts.

Li Zhi went to the place where he met Wu Zhaoyi - the library of the Inner Literature Museum, flipped through the historical scrolls, and looked at it for a night without results.

Shang Shi ordered Yu Dou Yawang to serve supplements, and after a while, the palace maid sent bird's nest honey white fungus soup, Wu Zhaoyi took it and brought it to Li Zhi, and said, "Jiulang has worked hard, take a rest!" ”

Li Zhi took a sip of soup and said, "This is nothing, the lady has done so many things for me, and I should also do one thing for the lady!" ”

When he saw the record of Wang Zhengjun in the Book of Han, Li Zhi's eyes lit up and he shouted: "There is." Wu Zhaoyi looked at him puzzled.

Li Zhi smiled: "Do you still remember the concubine hexagram of Qingniu Cave Taoist Ye Fashan divination for you?" said that the lady was the queen of Xiaoyuan of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Zhengjun second. In the first year of Ganlu, the crown prince Liu Zheng became depressed because his beloved concubine Sima Liangdi was cursed to death. Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty gave the prince as a concubine to resolve the prince's sorrows, but Wang Zhengjun became the longest-lived queen in the history of the Western Han Dynasty! ”

Wu Zhaoyi asked: "What does Wang Zhengjun's story have to do with the drafting of the post-establishment book?" ”

Li Zhi replied with a smile: "Sweet springs suddenly appeared on the dry ground, sunlight suddenly shot into the dark holes, and closed thoughts suddenly opened up!" "Pick up the spotted bamboo ivory deer brush and quickly write a draft of the holy decree on mulberry paper.

After writing, I will revise it at my discretion and show it to Wu Zhaoyi after the revision. Wu Zhaoyi suddenly realized at this time, and said in surprise: "This book is gorgeous, rigorously conceived, and well-reasoned, and the concubine is depicted as a phoenix in the world with just a few strokes, which is lifelike!" Jiulang, the concubine loves you! After speaking, he gave Li Zhi a warm kiss.

Li Zhi smiled: "By the side of the lady, there is no cold, because the lady is enthusiastic; There is no fear, because the lady is resourceful; There is no frustration, because the lady smiles like a flower! In the future, let's go down together until the sea is dry and the earth is old! ”

Wu Zhaoyi's eyes showed a vision for the future, and her admiration for Li Zhi was like a surging river, endless; It is also like the flooding of the Yellow River, which is out of control. I only wish that the world will last forever, and follow the person I like!

A morning star appeared in the eastern sky, and Wu Zhaoyi got up and took the colorful auspicious clouds and cranes and jade axes and silk brocade holy decrees, and spread them on the desk.

Li Zhi wrote the word "Feng" in the middle of the first line, the word "Tian" at the top of the second line, the word "carrier" below, and the third line wrote "Emperor Zhao", noting that all words should be one block lower than the word "Tian", symbolizing that the emperor is the son of heaven.

Next, write the content of the book: Wu's family is Xun Yong, Dihua Yinghuang, and he is selected to be **, and he is known for his reputation and is deguang Lanye. In the past, I was in Chu Er, Tehe Xianci, often got to be an attendant, Fu left the morning and night, in the palace, Heng self-bowing, between the concubines, did not taste the eyes, the holy feelings, every admiration, then to the Wu family to give me, the same political monarch, can be established as the queen!

After the book was handed over to the province of Chinese books, it was transcribed by regular script, and the scribes from all over the world were impressed after reading it!

Because this book not only fulfilled a shocking lie, but also praised the Empress Wu to the height of the famous long-lived queen Wang Zhengjun in history, so that the Empress Wu, who had been a talented person of the first emperor, could reasonably and legally honor the world!

Therefore, Empress Wu is grateful for this book written by Li Zhi himself!

On November 1, Li Zhi was in the Taiji Palace, and ordered Sikong Li Tao and Zuo Servant Yu Zhining to be the envoy of the ceremony, and went to the dormitory with the seal ribbon and treasure book to canonize Wu Zhaoyi as the queen.

The envoys Li Tao and Yu Zhining came to the front of the palace of the Empress Wu and said: "Sikong Li Tao and the left servant shot Yu Zhining to serve the system and give the queen a treasure book." "The inner attendant came in, and the martial queen went out, facing the north outside the gate to greet him.

Shang Gong, Shang Fu, Shang Yi, Si Yan, Si Bao, etc. prepare the Neiluan honor guard, guide the Empress Wu to salute according to the etiquette procedure, accept the seal, treasure book and queen jewelry, phoenix crown, robe, bow again, and then read the book.

Empress Wu ascended to sit on the phoenix couch, the inner attendants, Shang Palace, etc. all knelt down, the guards rose to both sides, and Shang Yi stepped forward to kneel and play: "The ceremony is over." Empress Wu sat down and entered the apse, and the envoys Li Tao and Yu Zhining returned to the Taiji Hall to resume their lives.

Li Zhi also ordered the civil and military officials and the chieftains of Fanyi to go to Suzhangmen to congratulate Wuhou, and ordered women to go to the Qianqiu Hall to pay homage to Wuhou.

The purpose of this was to raise the Empress Wu openly, to kill the morale of the Taiwei faction, and to force them to fear the royal family.

Wearing a phoenix crown and a robe, the Empress Wu ascended the majestic Suzhang Gatehouse with a high spirit and vigor, and the palace maid held a pheasant tail fan and a red canopy behind her to cover the sun and dust.

Looking up from the square downstairs, the Empress Wu was like a cyan peacock, dragging her long glittering tail.

After Wuhou looked into the distance, the great Chang'an City is divided into three major sections: the outer outline city, the imperial city and the palace city, Mingde Gate, Zhuque Gate, Chengtian Gate, Taiji Gate and Liangyi Gate form the north-south central axis, and Chunming Gate, Suzaku Gate and Jinguang Gate form the east-west central axis.

The Qianhua Gate and Liangyi Gate on the east side of Suzhang Gate and the Huizheng Gate on the west side are all in a straight line from east to west, dividing the Taiji Palace into two, with the outer dynasty in the south and the inner dynasty in the north.

Facing the cold wind of winter, looking at the ministers who came to congratulate under the city and the dotted alleys and criss-crossing streets in the distance, Empress Wu thought: After eighteen years, I finally stood on the top of Taiji Palace and became the master of this great palace! From the young girl of the year to the queen of the world today, how many twists and turns and ups and downs have been experienced!

It turns out that boarding the queen's phoenix couch is not as simple as exploring the bag to get things, nor is it as difficult as landing on the moon and picking up stars, as long as you are indomitable, self-improving, diligent and persevering, you will naturally come to fruition, and achieve your goals!

A mirage suddenly appeared in front of Empress Wu's eyes, like a dream!

In the palace decorated with purple shells and pearls, the queen bathed in fragrant orchid soup, put on a luxurious and gorgeous robe when the flowers fell, and rode with the emperor to travel around the world.

Sometimes climb the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, fly mighty, sometimes rush to the white clouds and colorful clouds, overlook Kyushu, sometimes vertical and horizontal, endless.

He also rode the Guizhou with the emperor and swam the eight rivers of Wei, Jing, Feng, Waterlogging, Wei, Zhu, Chan and Ba that surrounded Chang'an.

Sometimes they swim up in the face of howling storms and raging waves, sometimes they swim down chasing huge white turtles and schools of salmon, sometimes they stop their laurel boats and play on the river with lotus leaves, shilan and Du Heng.

Qionglin Treasure House, Daying Treasure House, Left Treasure Library, Right Treasure Library, Taicang, Changping Position Opening, Banana Cloth, Sea Clams, Wen Fan, Olive, Gold Lacquer, Milk Mandarin, Jiaxiang, Jiaole, Turtle Shell, Dendrobium, Monofilament, Gaozhu Cloth, Peach Bamboo Chopstick, Snake Gallbladder and other Quartet contributions are endless.

Oh, rejoice, and worship, common people! Hail and worship the great city, the great palace, the great queen!

Empress Wu woke up from the cheers of the ministers, waved her hand, nodded in thanks, finished the salute, walked down the Suzhang Gatehouse, and went to the Qianqiu Hall to receive the worship of the internal and external women.

Coming out of the Qianqiu Hall and entering the Liangyi Palace, Li Zhi had been waiting for a long time. Empress Wu said proudly: "The subjects bow down, the stars hold the moon, and the birds and phoenixes attract the attention of the world, and the concubines finally experience the nobility and dignity of the imperial power today!" Hey, I feel like I've reached the pinnacle of life! Thank you Jiurou for your love! ”
