For the reason why Li Hong can be posthumously honored as filial piety to the emperor, the ideas of the various factions are different, first of all, for the previous Donggong party, this is the embodiment of great grief and loyalty, although the prince's pursuit of benevolence and righteousness during his lifetime is a bit hypocritical, but on the whole he is still a qualified prince, and he is also very good to his subordinates, so they are naturally willing to fight for the prince with the highest honor of the title, although this is only an honor, it is actually meaningless for the dead, but after all, it is also a recognition, How many people in this world have paid with their lives for this recognition?

For Empress Wu, in addition to buying people's hearts, there is also a point mainly to make up for the inner uneasiness and guilt, although when she decided to poison Li Hong, it was called an instant decision, without half a point of hesitation, but she knew that she had a bad conscience after all, after all, this is her own son, tiger poison does not eat children, she is more poisonous than tigers!

Therefore, Empress Wu agreed to give Li Hong the highest honor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As for Gaozong Li Zhi, this is definitely the venting of true emotions, although Gaozong is sometimes angry, when he kills people, when he deals with rebellious ministers and thieves to gather power, he is also ruthless, but in his bones he is a cowardly, indecisive and amorous person, and he is also a very obvious literary and young man.

In his consciousness when he was young, what he longed for the most was the kind of love at first sight, and it was precisely because of this that Li Zhi, who was the crown prince at that time, braved the disapproval of the world and fell in love with Wu Mei, who was a talented person in the palace of the first emperor at that time, and this kind of love made him unforgettable, so that he, as the king of a country, rushed to the Ganye Temple to secretly meet with the Empress Wu who had been forced to become a nun at that time, and finally had the courage to take people from the Ganye Temple to the palace.

Gaozong especially when treating the concubines around him, Gaozong can definitely be regarded as the most affectionate and sexual, not long after the abolition of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, he went to visit the place where the two were detained, and secretly met with each other, and he burst into tears, and changed the place where the two were imprisoned to Huixinyuan.

Later, Empress Wu executed Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu with "bone drunkenness", and Gaozong washed his face with tears all day long, and in order to avoid being discovered by Empress Wu, he always hid in the palace and cried secretly.

It is precisely because of this that Gaozong complained about Empress Wu, so he got acquainted with the empathetic, gentle and considerate Wushun, thus transferring his feelings of affection for Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shufei to the mother and daughter.

As for his children, Gaozong has deep feelings, just like any father in the world, and he does his best to pamper them.

However, there are some things that he can't do, because Concubine Xiao Shufei was deposed, her two daughters were confined in the palace, and only recently was she able to marry out under the intercession of the crown prince Li Hong, and although the son of Concubine Shu, Li Sujie, was a prince, he was under surveillance for a long time, like a prisoner, and Gaozong was often concerned about them, but because of the obscenity of the Empress Wu, he could only hide this concern in his heart, because he knew that one of his words of miss might make his poor children look different.

In addition, there is the eldest son Li Zhong, who was deposed as the crown prince because Empress Wu became the queen, and later was charged with rebellion, and was directly executed, how can he not know about these? Ever since his confinement had been in solitary confinement, his poor son had often been awakened in the middle of the night, and sometimes he had the guts to put on a woman's clothes to guard against the Assassins. And the so-called crime of rebellion is actually clear to him, and it is clearly a victim brought by him in order to avenge Wang Fusheng's complaint and Shangguan Yi's plot to abolish the throne.

But he couldn't argue for his son, so he could only watch his son be executed, and then wash his face with tears all day long.

Now his favorite and proudest son Li Hong actually died at a young age, which was very painful for him, so when he heard the suggestion made by the seventh son Li Xian when he visited him, he immediately decided to agree to this suggestion and ordered this son to be posthumously named emperor, in order to express his deep nostalgia for his son.

Since this matter was raised by Li Xian at the first time, it was naturally a far-sighted choice made by Li Xian after reviewing the surrounding situation, and the reason why it was called far-sighted was mainly because he wanted to buy people's hearts and recruit the remnants of the crown prince Li Hong's party to make them serve him.

However, there is one person who opposes it, of course, not against posthumously posthumously calling Li Hong the emperor, but against building a large-scale mausoleum for Li Hong, and the construction period is very tight.

The dissenting opinion was Li Hong's brother-in-law, Li Xian's brother-in-law, and Li Xian, the king of Yong.

In fact, even Li Xian didn't expect that just as the crown prince Li Hong would die like this, he couldn't help but wonder if this was a dream when he heard the news, and later confirmed this, although he was very sad on the surface, but his heart had already blossomed.

"Li Hong's guy used his means to suppress me as much as possible, so that my only little power above the court was purged, and he had to go to Yongzhou, but he didn't expect that the day was clear, he actually died first, and the throne seemed to be within reach, but he was ultimately unblessed, hehe, now that Li Hong is dead, I, as the new eldest son, this prince's position naturally belongs to me, who else can I be?"

Therefore, as soon as he learned of Li Hong's death, Li Xian regarded himself as the crown prince, put himself in the position of the prince, and put himself in the position of what he should do to earn enough reputation for himself, so that the position of the prince really fell on his head.

After some deliberation with his confidants, Li Xian decided to use the excuse of opposing the construction of a mausoleum for the emperor to honor the emperor, so as to gain a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, so as to prepare the first gorgeous paving for the ascension to the crown prince.

When he rejected this suggestion, he thought about it calmly and felt that his son was indeed very benevolent for the sake of the people, especially Li Xian also said in the recital, he was also very sad about the sudden death of the emperor, and if possible, he was willing to transfer his life to his brother, so strong emotions made Gaozong also very comforted in his heart.

So although Gaozong later rejected Li Xian's application, he didn't reply much, but just left this letter in the middle and put it in the cabinet, and then secretly decided in his heart that when he set up the prince in the next step, this child must be the first thing to consider.

Gaozong's attitude happened to fall into Li Xian's calculations, so Li Xian, who heard the news, couldn't help but feel excited, because the throne of the crown prince was already waving to him, and he only had to work hard to walk a few steps to sit in that position.

And the most important part of this "take a few steps" is to go to Li Xian's mansion first, because Li Xian is not terrible, what is terrible is that the Empress Wu will use Li Xian to organize him to achieve great things.

As he grew up with his aunt from childhood to adulthood, he naturally knew that he had never liked his mother, although it seemed that everything was about to become a foregone conclusion, but if he couldn't get the queen mother's side, his position as the crown prince would never be a foregone conclusion, because almost everyone knew the position of the queen martial arts in Gaozong's heart.

But Li Xian didn't dare to go directly to her to plead with her.

This woman, who dared to hide behind the curtain and eavesdrop on the conversation between the emperor and the minister when she was Zhaoyi, and when she was angry, she walked out directly from behind the screen and said "Why don't you kill this bureaucracy" against Chu Suiliang, an important minister in the court, if she really launched a surge, even Gaozong would not dare to take her edge at all, let alone Li Xianhu? If you become the crown prince, you may still have a trace of resistance, but now, you are like meat on the chopping board, in a situation where you can be slaughtered.

Therefore, in this case, Li Xian has only one way left, that is, to find Li Xian and let Li Xian take the initiative to give up the position of the crown prince, so that even if the Empress Wu proposes, it is in vain.

"But how could Li Xian take the initiative to give up the upcoming crown prince?" Li Xian thought about it, and could only use brotherly morality and patriarchal concepts to persuade the other party, which is "knowing with affection and moving with reason." Of course, if this method is used purely in this way, it is simply a joke, and he must also show sincerity, that is, promise the other party any benefits, which is called "inducement to profit".

"As long as the three-pronged approach is taken together, I believe that Li Xian will have to take my move." Li Xian silently thought about it, and felt that there should be nothing to miss this time, so Shi Shiran went to visit Li Xian's house.

At this time, Li Xian didn't do anything, and teased his son Li Chongjun in the house.

This little guy is now three years old, and he looks very cute, and I don't know why, he actually likes to be with Dou Xiantong the most, which makes Lan'er, who has been by his side since he was born, full of jealousy, but no matter what, this little guy has one more person who really loves him, but it may not be a bad thing, so she had to endure it.

"Da Lang, throw away the stones in your hands, dirty!" Lan'er was stricter than her mother's management of Xiao Chongjun, and when she saw Xiao Chongjun pick up a stone, she immediately yelled at him to throw it away.

Xiao Chongjun had already been trained by Lan'er to be afraid, and immediately tilted his mouth and wanted to cry, but when he saw Lan'er's eyes, he still didn't dare after all, and threw away the stone in his hand.

"Da Lang, good man, come to Aunt Fairchild, there is candy to eat here." When Dou Xiantong saw Xiao Chongjun's appearance, he couldn't bear it, and hurriedly waved his hand to ask him to come over.

Just when Xiao Chongjun staggered over, Dou Xiantong glanced at Li Xian on the side, and whispered: "Didn't you say that you had the opportunity to make a windfall?" Why haven't I seen you act until now? ”

At this moment, I suddenly heard a report from the inner servant that King Yong was visiting.

Li Xian patted the soil on his hands, and then said to Dou Xiantong with a smile: "Isn't this the opportunity?" (To be continued.) )
