Chapter 229: The Controversy of Yaxian

At this time, Xiao Zhizhong, the Chinese scholar, came out and said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, among the ceremonies of the emperors, the specifications of the Zen seal are the highest, and it must be held under the conditions of national peace and security and the emperor's wide respect, so there are not many kings who have sealed the Zen, please think twice, Your Majesty!" ”

Xiao Zhizhong's words were very tactful, but Li Xian and all the ministers heard it, and in terms of Zhongzong's cultural and martial arts, he did not have the qualifications to seal Zen at all. Xiao Zhizhong wanted to dissuade Li Xian to make Empress Wei's wishful thinking come to naught.

Although Li Xian is angry, he is still self-aware, what should he do? He retreated and decided to go to the southern suburbs of Chang'an City to hold a ceremony to worship heaven and earth.

The emperor gave in and did not go to Mount Tai to seal the Zen, but only held a ceremony to sacrifice heaven and earth in the southern suburbs, so Xiao Zhizhong had no reason.

The southern suburbs are also one of the highest national ceremonies, so officials are required to agree on the procedure for performing the salute in advance. At this critical time, Empress Wei's supporters in the court should come in handy, as the so-called raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while.

Zong Chuke gave a look, and Zhu Qinming, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, said: "When the minister was looking through the ancient books, he found that in ancient times, every time there was a big sacrifice, there were queens who participated in the sacrifice. Therefore, this time in the southern suburbs, Queen Wei should also participate in the sacrifice to heaven and earth, and help sacrifice heaven and earth. ”

After Zhu Qinming finished speaking, someone immediately jumped out and retorted: "You Zhu Qinming is still a scholar, do you still know how to read, and do you understand what the ancients said?" In ancient times, queens could participate in sacrifices, but they participated in the activities of sacrificing their ancestors, and they had never heard of queens sacrificing to the sky. ”

The two factions hold their own views and hold each other. What to do in the end?

Zhongzong spoke: "Don't fight. There are already people in the lonely family of Yaxian, so they are designated as Li Tao, the emperor's grandson! ”

"Huh?" Neither side of the dispute expected this outcome.

"What? Do you think he's not suitable? Li Xian stared at the ministers like a fighting.

Although Li Tao has not yet been canonized, he is basically the emperor's grandson. That is, the prince, the heir of the future emperor, he came to be a sub-sacrifice, and no one had any reason to oppose it.

"Humph!"

A heavy cold snort came from the bead curtain behind Li Xian, followed by messy footsteps. There is no need to ask, it was Queen Wei who walked away angrily.

It's no wonder that I've been busy for so long. plucked Li Xian for the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, but in the end she made wedding clothes for others, how could she not be angry. She hates. Hates that Li Xian didn't tell himself in advance, so he decided to let Li Tao be the sub-sacrifice, did he forget what he made back then, "If I can see the light of day again in the future, I will let you do whatever you want, without any restrictions." "The oath? She hated, hated those who usually swore to herself. And at the critical moment, he became the minister of the shrunken turtle. Of course. What he hates the most is Li Tao who fell from the sky, and since he appeared, he has not had a good life. If one day, Li Tao disappeared from this world, what should he ......

……

"Tao'er has seen her aunt!" Li Tao saluted Princess Taiping.

Li Tao received an invitation from Princess Taiping as soon as he went to court, although he didn't know what Princess Taiping meant, but since he joined forces with her, he couldn't help but give her this face. I didn't know until I found out. There are a lot of people in Princess Taiping's mansion!

"Tao'er, you're very good!" Taiping said with joy on his face.

"Aunt Xie's compliment!"

"Let me introduce you. This is the king of the phase! Princess Taiping pointed to a kind old man.

Xiangwang Li Dan is Li Xian's younger brother, Princess Taiping's brother, and Li Tao's elder, he hurriedly bowed: "Tao'er has seen Uncle Weng, and he has not visited Uncle Weng, please forgive Uncle Weng!" ”

"Tao'er, you're about to be a prince, so you don't have to salute!" Li Dan said with a smile.

Subsequently, Princess Taiping introduced others to him one by one. Among them are Li Dan's daughters Jinxian County Lord, Yuzhen County Lord, Zhang Huai's second son Li Xian's second son Li Shouli, and Li Shouli's daughter Jincheng County Lord......

Li Tao greeted them separately.

This meal was extremely lively, Li Tao was not polite to them, it was a wine order, and it was a joke, even if Princess Taiping asked him to write a poem, he did not hesitate to say it, which made the three county lords feel novel.

After the meal, everyone dispersed, and Princess Taiping led Li Dan and Li Tao to the study. Li Tao knew that Princess Taiping's banquet was fake, and he heard from himself that it was true at this time.

After the three of them sat down, Princess Taiping said bluntly: "Tao'er, you are really amazing, my fourth brother and I have never fought that cheap woman in the past few years, you have only been in Chang'an for two months, and you let her touch such a big mold, you really deserve to be the descendant of Brother Jun!" ”

"Auntie, you praise it falsely! Actually, I don't want to be the emperor's grandson! Li Tao said truthfully.

"Huh?" Princess Taiping was stunned.

Li Dan didn't seem surprised, but asked lightly: "Then why don't you resign in the court?" ”

"I don't want to do it, I don't want to do it, but I can't let it out in vain, I have to ask for something back!" Li Tao said with a smile.

"Oh?" Li Dan became interested: "What are you going to ask for back?" ”

"I want the five uncles of the Shuweng family to come back to Chang'an!"

"Huh?" This time it was Li Dan's turn to be stunned.

After the coup d'Γ©tat of Wuli, Li Chongjun died, and King Li Dan and Princess Taiping became the key targets of prevention. However, the Xiangwang brothers and sisters did not participate in the coup, so they were not convinced. Besides, Li Xian only has this brother and sister left, how can he agree with Webster's opinion? Webster had no choice but to say that he would not pursue it, and if he did not pursue it, he would not be investigated, but Webster was still not at ease with Li Dan in his heart. It didn't take long for Li Dan's five sons to be unlucky and were sent to the local authorities one after another.

Princess Taiping exclaimed: "Tao'er, don't you want to use the status of the crown prince to exchange the fifth son of the fourth brother to return to Beijing?" ”

Li Tao nodded and said, "Exactly!" Of course, not only the title of the crown prince, but also the title of Naya Xian, I will also give it away! ”

Li Dan didn't expect Li Tao to have such thoughts, and couldn't help but be moved: "Tao'er, I was spared by your father's help back then, and today you help again, I owe you too much love to your father and son!" ”

Li Tao didn't care: "Uncle Weng, you will see the outside world when you say this, aren't we a family?" Why should a family talk two words? ”

Princess Taiping was a little worried on the side and said: "Tao'er, of course it's good to let the fourth brother's five sons come back, but isn't you fueling the arrogance of that slut like this, in case she ......" (to be continued...... to be continued)
