Chapter 253: The Crown Prince (End of this Volume)

Li Xian's case is over, the prince was finally brought down, but the Empress Wu did not completely put her mind at ease, first of all, the death of Ming Chongyan made him completely lose an arm, and she lost her emotional support, in fact, the Empress Wu herself didn't know why, she actually had such sincere feelings for a man in middle age, this feeling made her want to stop, as if she had been reborn, and felt that life in addition to power, it could be so wonderful, and it was precisely because of this, Empress Wu was particularly angry about this incident, and ordered Zhao Daosheng Ling Chi to be executed on the same day after the case was concluded.

And another reason that annoys her is that Li Xian's ability is too strong, if he is made the prince, I am afraid that he will have a worse life in the future, even more difficult than when Li Hong and Li Xian were princes, fortunately, she is Li Xian's biological mother, standing on the commanding heights of morality, as long as Li Xian is out of line, as a mother, she can give him a disobedient hat at any time, and this hat is enough to kill, it is really not good, he can still take action, find a way to abolish his position as prince, Even like dealing with Li Hong, a glass of poisoned wine killed him.

In the face of absolute power, Empress Wu will never care about any family affection, not before, and naturally not in the future.

But in front of him, Empress Wu knew that it was too difficult and too difficult to stop Li Xian from becoming the prince, because Li Xian had made great contributions to the country after these wars, and his prestige was almost too high to overshadow his own queen, and now that Li Xian was deposed, he had become the eldest son according to the patriarchal system, and he was definitely the undisputed candidate for the crown prince, whether it was reasonable or reasonable.

Since she knew that it was impossible to stop it, Empress Wu naturally could only take advantage of the situation, otherwise she would be thankless, not only could she not prevent Li Xian from entering the East Palace, but also had a reputation of being jealous and jealous.

Therefore, less than half a month after Li Xian's crown prince was abolished, Empress Wu said to Gaozong at a court meeting: "Half a month ago, the rebel Zixian was deposed as the prince because of rebellion, but the East Palace cannot be without an owner, and the concubines think that the king of Zhou is heroic and martial, and his virtue is not lost, and he has made many military exploits, and he has contributed to Sheji, so it is better to be the prince and to calm the world, I don't know what Your Majesty and Zhu Aiqing want?" ”

Empress Wu's words were reasonable, and when I heard Gaozong and the ministers nodding frequently, I saw Gaozong first laugh and said: "The sons born to me, only Xian'er is upright, aiming at the country, and there is Emperor Taizong's martial arts and heroic style, and he is filial to his parents, whether it is virtue or talent, he is the best choice, alas, I mistakenly chose Xian'er before, which led to today's disaster, but Xian'er is virtuous, I am still relieved, I believe that this time will never disappoint me again, by the way, what do you think?" ”

In fact, the matter is obvious, even the emperor has expressed his position like this, what can the ministers do? Naturally, he could only follow the emperor's wishes and praise Li Xian. Occasionally, a few people who were instructed by the Empress Wu to oppose this immediately disappeared into the foaming stars of the ministers and could no longer get out......

"Since all the ministers have no objections, then it is so decided, then a good day and an auspicious day, the crown prince ceremony will be established." Seeing that the ministers had no objections, Gaozong suddenly felt high-spirited, waved his hand vigorously, and said happily.

"Yes." Pei Xingjian, the new secretary of the Ministry of Rites, went to the frontier to fight with Li Xian, although it was not the same battlefield, but he had always known Li Xian's military talent, and he was naturally very happy about it, and immediately after the dispersal of the dynasty, he handed down an order to choose a good day and an auspicious day to canonize the prince.

After some deliberation, Pei Xingjian sent a letter to the emperor, requesting that a great ceremony be made on the day of August of the second year of the confession, and Gaozong immediately agreed.

So after some intense preparations, on the day of August Yichou in the second year of the dew, Gaozong prepared a grand ceremony for Li Xian to canonize the crown prince, officially canonized Li Xian as the crown prince, and ordered to change the second year of Tiaolu to the first year of Yonglong, amnesty to the world, and the three days of the big drunk, and canonized the original Zhou princess Zhao Yinyue as the crown princess, Li Xian's son Li Chongzhao was also renamed the king of Yixing County, and Zhao Yinyue gave birth to a daughter when Li Xian was fighting on the front line last year, named Li Xianhui, and was also named the lord of Yongtai at this time.

When the news of Li Xian's appointment as the crown prince came, the whole country was jubilant, but there were also many people who were full of gloom, mainly the cronies of Empress Wu, especially the brothers Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi.

The two brothers have been at odds with Li Xian, trying all kinds of conspiracies to assassinate Li Xian, but they have repeatedly suffered losses under Li Xian, and now Li Xian has been made the prince, but the prince of the country, once they are the king in the future, they really have no way to live, so **** got together and tried to deal with the current situation, but they were short-minded, and they couldn't think of any way to deal with him, plus now Li Xian's reputation is in full swing, I'm afraid that not only can it not be done when the time comes, but it has become Li Xian's first test stone.

Therefore, these brothers can only be people with their tails between their legs at present, and wait until the future to add another handful of dry wood to the anger of the Empress Wu at the right time, and use the power of the Empress Wu to deal with Li Xian.

And another unhappy person is Wei Xiang'er, she tried her best to threaten Wei Tuan'er to recommend her to be Li Xian's candidate for Princess Zhou, but she didn't expect Li Xian to be bold, directly broke into the palace to rescue Zhao Yinyue, and reconciled with her, becoming a loving couple that made all women in the world envious, jealous and hateful, so Wei Xiang'er naturally failed to become Li Xian's princess, and later Wei Xiang'er retreated to the second, recommended herself as a pillow, and was willing to be Li Xian's concubine, but was still bluntly rejected by Li Xian, She didn't know why Li Xian hated her so much, but she was repeatedly humiliated by the other party, and she was naturally annoyed in her heart.

Now that she heard that Li Xian had become the crown prince, she lost the opportunity to ascend to the sky, and she hated Li Xian even more, but she also knew that this person was not easy to mess with now, and if she wanted to get out of the evil spirit in her chest, she could only find Li Xian's opponent, and there were very few people in the court who could be qualified to be Li Xian's opponent, and in the end, after thousands of choices, she finally locked Li Xian's cousin, Wu Sansi, the nephew of Empress Wu.

In fact, she originally liked Wu Chengsi more, but Wu Chengsi didn't look down on her, plus Wu Chengsi was shrewd, she was also worried that she would not be able to control it in the future, so she decided to take refuge in Wu Sansi, after several beautiful "encounters", Wei Xianger quickly conquered Wu Sansi with her peerless demeanor, and then was married to Wu Sansi in the house, and later after a fight, Wei Xianger became Wu Sansi's main room, and from then on, Wu Sansi and Wei Xianger, a pair of like-minded couples, began to plot against Li Xian, and actively helped Empress Wu to seize power.
