Chapter 633: The Imperial Brother's First Task in Prisoning the Country
Chapter 633: The Imperial Brother's Primary Task in Prisoning the Country
For His Royal Highness the newly released Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xian couldn't think about his mother's knot as much time as he had before. Just because of the ownership of the East Palace, he started a hard tug-of-war with the political hall.
If you count the former abolished princes, after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were six princes, such as Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, Li Zhi, Li Zhong, and Li Hong, except for Li Shimin, who completed the triple jump of King Qin-Prince-Emperor not long after, everyone else stayed in the East Palace for a long time. In other words, the East Palace, as the legal residence of the prince, has always had no room for dispute.
But Li Xian just wasn't happy! In the court, he quoted scriptures to explain what kind of adverse effects the prince would have if he lived in the East Palace. From the psychology of the officials to the people, to the arrogant consciousness of the prince himself, and then to the relationship between the monarch and the minister...... All in all, it is absolutely inappropriate for him to live in the East Palace.
Although he is one against a hundred, sophistry and deception have always been his strengths, plus he buttons his big hat at every turn, and over time, even a literary celebrity like Shangguan Yi can't stand it. The prime ministers met once and decided to take a step back in the matter for the time being. Annoyed is annoyed, but deep down in the hearts of several people, there is still a little appreciation for Li Xian.
This new monarch and the prince are exactly the same age, and it is indeed inappropriate to live under the same roof. Because Li Zhi likes Daming Palace, and Li Hong is used to living in Taiji Palace, the two generations of emperors are naturally separated, and one lives in the Penglai Hall of Daming Palace. One lives in the Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace, which is regarded as two non-interference.
As a result, the East Palace was directly converted from a political and residential use to an office space, and Li Xian's official residence was still in Andingfang - this was only temporary, because his father Li Zhi had officially announced it a few days ago. In April, we set off for Luoyang. It stands to reason that the emperor and the queen mother can go together, but these two are biased, neither let Li Hong, the new monarch, stay in Chang'an, nor leave Li Xian, the prince, in Chang'an, but they are actually on the road together as a family.
Li Xian even had to wonder, with this supreme couple's love for Luoyang, were they ready to move the capital?
Essentially, if the prince does not need to supervise the country. The days are actually extremely idle and even boring. Therefore, Li Xian initially stepped down from Zhongshu Ling, thinking that he would be able to enjoy a leisurely time, however, only ten days after the new monarch ascended the throne. That is, in February, he tasted the taste of being forced to Liangshan for the first time in his life.
The emperor's brother is in charge of the country!
Li Xian rushed straight to the Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace in a hurry, thinking that there was something wrong with Li Hong's body, but who knew that as soon as he rushed in, he found that this one was playing with Yang Wenyin and Li De there, looking at the red face. It doesn't look like he's sick. Although he was annoyed in his heart, but now that there were so many people around him, he did not shout as soon as he entered the door as usual, and after saluting with a stomach in his breath, he sat down beside him angrily.
Of course, the new emperor and his wife knew what Li Xian was looking for, and Yang Wenyin immediately withdrew those palace people and chamberlains, and immediately took the child and retreated to the side to play, leaving enough space for the two brothers. However, not long after. She deeply realized that the space she left was far from enough, because the thunderous Li Xian and her warm husband could actually burst into sparks.
"Fifth brother, isn't your body getting better and better day by day, so you can use it to let me supervise the country? Besides, my father's eyes are getting better and better day by day, and he can obviously handle state affairs, so why do you have to ask me to do it? Do you know how much trouble I have there, just ten days. How many people have come to my side to show their loyalty and even persuade them to enter the book! ”
The new monarch has always appointed his own henchmen when he ascends the throne, but no matter what aspect he considers, Li Hong has no need to do such a thing. Therefore, except for the large-scale personnel transfer in the East Palace, the pattern of the court has basically not changed, so when he heard Li Xian's last words, his expression couldn't help but darken, but then returned to normal.
"It's not something to squander. Sixth brother, you don't know my background, whether it is the day of the ceremony or the worship of the Taimiao, I can barely support it. In addition, I am about to go to worship Zhaoling, if I don't take advantage of this effort to recuperate, I am afraid that I will make people see jokes, can't you help me at this time? ”
This reason can be said to be extremely sufficient, Li Xian's stomach was full of anger and half of it was suddenly released, but he still couldn't help but emphasize: "Your new monarch has not made a deep impression on people when he ascends the throne, so let me, my younger brother, be in charge of the country, and it is inevitable that some people will have something to think about." It's not that I won't help, it's really ...... It's really my father's idea is too incredible! ”
For such an arrangement, Li Hong was frequently summoned to Penglai Palace, and he had not only listened to Li Zhi's analysis, but also had some ideas at first, but finally expressed his approval. However, it is impossible for a person to have no desires and desires, and truly become an emperor, that sense of difference
brought a powerful impact, so he had to let Li Xian imprison the country more and more in that feeling, so as not to sink into the mud. Now it seems that not only him, but even Li Xian seems to have suffered such embarrassment.
Li Hong even turned to a famous folk doctor from a secret channel, and finally came to the conclusion that he worked too hard when he was a child, so he damaged his body, and if he could take care of it, he could live longer. But if you work hard, I'm afraid that your life will not be more than thirty. However, can the emperor really be the master?
Who would have expected that when Li Zhen's rebellion occurred, he expressed his feelings to Li Zhi after careful consideration, saying that he was unwilling to succeed to the throne, but he was dumbfounded by a bunch of big truths from his father.
First, although Li Xian said that he was both civil and military, his temperament was too wild and too reckless, and he was afraid that he would be chaotic when he became the emperor. Second, he has been a prince for so many years, and he is not guilty, and his abandonment due to illness may cause an unexpected backlash. And only the third one was the most difficult for him to export, because he never expected that his father and emperor were also wary of his own mother.
It's just that these words are really not good for Li Xian, so he had to have the idea of refining steel into a finger twist, and promised Li Xian countless comforts in every way, and guaranteed that the prison time would definitely not be long, so he successfully coaxed Li Xian away. After the people left, he turned around and walked to his wife's side, picked up the chubby Li De, and thought of his biological son who was fostered in Li Xian's house.
And Li Xian walked out of the Manna Palace, and there was also an inexplicable irritability in his heart. It's just like a sentence, what a mess at this time! Could it be that it was because he had stirred things up too much that this unprecedented situation had occurred now?
So, he gritted his teeth and muttered: "Prison the country, prison the country, anyway, it's not me who is unlucky!" ”
However, the first thing he had to face after serving as a prisoner was Li Jidi's funeral. As a lieutenant given by Li Zhi, Yingzhen Wugong, this funeral is naturally extremely grand. On the day of the funeral, the cry spread almost all over the whole community, and those subordinates who had been promoted by Li Ji, those colleagues who had worked with him in the past, and those juniors who had been taught by him, were all in tears. As for Li Xian, who watched the funeral procession set off on the long street, he felt even more empty.
When the coffin was buried in the cemetery that had been built long ago next to the Zhaoling Tomb, he would never see the old fox again. More than ten years of getting along, more than ten years of love, on this day has become a permanent secret. He couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of the palace city, knowing that at this time, Li Zhi must have climbed the Anyue Tower of Weiyang Palace, and although it is unknown whether he was crying while looking at the car, he must also feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Li Zhi is a capricious person, but also a person with rich feelings, especially for an old minister who has never stumbled himself from the beginning to the end, Li Zhi will never hesitate to mourn after death, and tears of sadness for it.
Behind Li Xian stood Cheng Bohu and Xue Dingshan, both of whom had red circles under their eyes. Like Li Xian, they have also been taught by Li Ji since childhood, and regard him as a teacher and father, although they have cried with Li Jingye when they went to Li's house before, but at this time they still can't help the sadness in their hearts.
"I believe that even if the master is alive, he will not want to see our soft eggs!" Li Xian rubbed his reddened eyes vigorously, and suddenly aggravated his tone, "The master can still watch dances and listen to songs before he dies, how open-minded and chic!" Who has not died in life since ancient times, but sooner or later, cheer up, don't be so! ”
A pustule made Cheng Bohu and Xue Dingshan all cheer up, and their eyes gradually showed some determination when they looked at the car. Li Xian, who was standing in front of the two of them, couldn't see this kind of look, so he naturally didn't know what these two were thinking. He only saw Li Jingye, who was at the forefront of wearing linen and filial piety, although his face looked calm at this time, but the fist under the filial piety suit was always clenched.
As for the Li family, who had a long line at the back, they almost cried bitterly. Li Jingye is still young after all, in the case of Li Ji, a pillar of the fall, even if the Li family still has a title, its influence in the court will inevitably plummet, and Li Ji usually does not seek officials for his family, so the entire Li family is now no longer a high-ranking official above the third grade.
Even just now, Li Xian's sensitive ears also caught the sighs of some people, which was nothing more than saying that the Li family would not have the previous scenery after this incident. And there were even whispers not far behind him, as if to say that the future of the Li family was closely linked to him Li Xian.
He quietly clenched his fists, closed his eyes and prayed silently in his heart with great speed, and when he opened his eyes again, all his sorrow had been gone. Just like what he said to Cheng Bohu and Xue Dingshan just now, people always have to die, since he has no reason to be weighed on such a heavy burden, he can only unite and forge ahead and look forward!
