Chapter 102: The Yin Wind Cuts Four-Sided Six
The method of death chosen by Guo was to fall from the building, and the location was the main building of the diligent government.
Choosing the diligent government building as the last stop in his life, Guo naturally has a reason. Here, it once carried the most glorious memories of the empire's cause; Here, the life trajectory of most of Guo's life has been recorded.
More than 100 years ago, it was the most glorious moment of the Tang Empire's career, and at that time, its head was Li Longji, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji. At that time, the same script was staged more than once, a hymn to the Tang Dynasty in which the government and the people enjoyed together, and the monarchs and ministers enjoyed together.
Upstairs, the high-spirited Li Longji sat lazily on the chair, comfortably raised his wine glass, and sang while shaking his head: "A song and a glass of wine, a dance and people get drunk", while glancing at the beloved woman next to him from time to time.
The radiant Yang Guifei was admiring the top rod of Aunt Wang of the Jiaofang with great interest, holding a child in her arms, an eight-year-old boy, of course this boy was not Yang Guifei's child, or even Li Longji's child. His name is Liu Yan, the future God of Wealth of the Empire, and the greatest God of Wealth of the Empire, there is no one. Of course, Liu Yan's identity at that time was not the God of Wealth, but a prodigy, a prodigy who was appreciated by Li Longji and Yang Guifei.
Downstairs, thirty horses dressed up in fine costumes are dancing to the music, and the dance music is the cheerful "Cup Music"; The equestrian dressage attracts a lot of people, a lot of people, a sea of people, thousands of heads, and there is a possibility of crowds at any time. Yin Cui Anzhi of Jingzhao Mansion was not in a hurry, took out the wat board, and drew a line on the ground, and a miracle appeared, and the surging crowd immediately stopped in front of this line, and no one dared to take a step beyond the thunder pool, because it was the famous "strict public boundary". At this moment, money, countless pieces of money fell from the sky and scattered all over the ground.
Forty years ago, the glory of the Kaiyuan era has long been an eternal memory, but the dream of the empire has not been shattered, because, now, the president of the empire is Li Chun. At this time, Guo's status is the same as that of Yang Yuhuan back then, she is also a concubine, and there is no queen or imperial concubine on it, she is the most respected one of all Li Chun's women. But Guo Guifei obviously does not have the leisure and elegance of her predecessor Yang Guifei, because the biggest difference between them is the situation: Li Longji likes Yang Guifei, likes it very much, and likes it to the bone; Li Chun didn't like Guo Guifei, he didn't like it very much, and he hated it to the bone.
More than 20 years ago, Guo's family, who once again ascended to the diligent government affairs building, has already changed his identity and mood. Because, her husband, the emotionless husband, has long become a piece of loess. Now, the ruler of the empire has become Li You, her son, and she has also become the most powerful woman in the world, the queen mother of the Tang Empire, and the only queen mother. Standing upstairs, the places that are within reach and out of reach are under the control of his son, and his son is such a filial and well-behaved child, how can Guo not laugh?
More than ten years ago, Li You died violently, Guo's title was promoted again, and now, she seems to be the queen mother, but this is a promotion that makes her sad, because her son, her only son, died, and the death is not clear, unclear. Fortunately, fortunately, she still has grandchildren, and not one or two, but five, five grandsons of in-laws! The Tang Empire is still in her hands, and this is the most important thing. Therefore, the Empress Dowager Guo, who once again ascended to the diligent government affairs building, although she is graceful and luxurious on the surface, and her demeanor is beautiful, but her heart, which is not very young, is like opening a seasoning bottle, with sweet and sour, bitter, spicy and salty, and all five flavors. There is a hint of pride, a hint of sadness, a hint of melancholy, a hint of shame, and a hint of fear.
But what caught Guo off guard is still to come, she will have to accept the blow of bereavement several times: within ten years, her five grandchildren, her only five grandchildren, have left her one after another, just like their father, who died unclear and unclear. In this way, her heart was poked again and again.
Even stronger than grief was fear, for now she had no sons or grandchildren, and her descendants could no longer hold the throne. What's even worse is that the throne, the throne that everyone covets, finally fell into the arms of Li Chun's son, Li Chun's thirteenth son Li Chen. You must know that Li Chen's mother is the woman Guo hates the most, because it was the despicable woman who took her husband away from her, although in the depths of Guo's heart, it is actually very clear that even if there is no woman, there is no despicable woman named Du Qiu, she will not be favored by her husband, but Guo still hates her, hates her to the bone. Of course, she also knew very well that the woman also hated her, and the roots of her teeth itched with hatred, because it was she who took away that woman's husband, and this time, Guo took away not her husband's heart, but his life, although he was also her husband.
Now that the enemy's son is the emperor, Guo is ready and psychologically prepared to compromise. But when it came to the end, she still couldn't bear it, she couldn't stand Li Chen's hateful gaze, she couldn't bear the loneliness caused by cutting off her children and grandchildren, and she couldn't bear the bleakness that Li Chen deliberately created. Therefore, in order to maintain the last dignity, the minimum dignity of a queen mother of the three dynasties, she decided to die and end her life on the diligent government building that carried the memories of her life.
This is the last twilight of Guo's life. In the twilight on the main floor, the white-haired Guo Shi trembled up the stairs, leaning on the railing, looking at the few pedestrians on the street with dull eyes, and the lights around her, and the wind that came late to blow her white hair.
There, there were a few dead trees, and it was there that Tutu Chengguang was put to death; There, it was the Sixteenth House, and Li Chun's second son, Li Kuan, had been in one of the rooms and left miserably; There was the Xianning Palace, where my husband, Li Chun, died; There, it is the Qinzheng Palace, my son, my grandson, they used to deal with national affairs there, and now, they have become Li Chen's kid; There, it's the Cold Spring Palace, it's really cold there, I really can't live there...... In a trance, Guo Shi suddenly felt some itching in her throat, she involuntarily opened her mouth wide, and let out a terrible scream, which echoed in the cold wind, echoing......
This evening, the Empress Dowager Guo did not die, not that she didn't want to die, but that someone didn't want her to die, no, it should be that she didn't want to die by suicide. Because, no matter what, Guo is a member of the royal family, and the suicide of a member of the royal family is a very unseemly and unsightly thing. This person who doesn't want her to die, to be precise, doesn't want her to die like this, of course, is Li Chen, the Son of Heaven. Li Chen promptly sent someone to stop this way of dying that damaged the royal reputation.
Li Chen rejected the disgraceful death, but did not reject death, and late that night, Guo died, in infinite bleakness, like her husband, her son, and her five grandsons, who died unclear and unclear.
Seven years later, Li Chen finally issued an edict to terminate the "purge", and everyone in Chang'an breathed a sigh of relief: Li Chen, you, have finally stopped.
Li Chen stopped, but after such a toss, the Tang Empire, which was already riddled with stubborn diseases, was even more dying, like a dying patient, although he refused to die, but there were only a few breaths left, and there was one less breath left.
"The family and country are ruined and sad for eternity", the Li Tang royal family and their Tang Dynasty are declining step by step, it is the people who are declining, and the country is dying!
