Chapter 8 The Virtuous Queen of the Nation

readx;

Empress Changsun doesn't care much about government affairs, but as Li Shimin's most favored and beloved woman, Li Shimin never avoids suspicion of her in government affairs. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info was wronged by Wei Zheng, and even came to the Lizheng Hall angrily and scolded Wei Zheng, apparently to kill him as a hillbilly.

Li Shimin, as the emperor, and the emperor of the city, if he really killed Wei Zheng, how could he make such a child's move? He was clearly complaining to Empress Changsun and seeking comfort.

Only here is Empress Changsun that Li Shimin will show his truest side.

Receiving this honor, the eldest grandson queen has no intention of interfering with political affairs, and she also knows a lot of things.

Among them, what made her most concerned was the matter of the crown prince, the eldest grandson queen was a person who came over, and when Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin had the most trouble, she was the most uncomfortable one.

As the backbone of the Tiance Mansion, Li Shimin has been fighting abroad all the year round, and the greater the credit he makes, the greater the pressure on the DPRK and the central government.

Emperor Li Yuan was biased towards Li Jiancheng, King Li Yuanji of Qi was also biased towards Li Jiancheng, and most of the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty were biased towards Li Jiancheng. Li Shimin was on the battlefield, so he naturally fell easily, but the pressure of Tiance Mansion fell on the eldest grandson Empress in Chang'an.

In ancient times, the lack of transportation was extremely inconvenient, and the transmission of information was unusually slow, and the truth varied.

For a while in Chang'an, the news of Li Shimin's rebellion with heavy troops came from both ends for three days, the news was simulated, and it was difficult to distinguish between true and false, and many times, Li Yuan had to believe it. Because he knows his son Mo Ruo's father, Li Yuan knows that Li Shimin is eloquent and has the ambition to sit in the world, but the crown prince is Li Jiancheng, and the future of Datang will be handed over to Li Jiancheng. Li Shimin can't be the world, he has made great achievements, won the hearts of the army, and led the troops externally, even if he raised his arms, he was not surprised to rebel. When the two sides were most nervous, Li Yuan was even secretly preparing to fight with his "rebellious" son.

The situation was so bad, the princess of Qin, who was in Chang'an at the time, was naturally under great pressure, ** supporting Tiance Mansion, an institution that can be compared to the East Palace.

At that time, the eldest grandson empress not only had to take care of several children, but also appeased the military spirit of Tiance Mansion, and also entered the palace to stabilize Li Yuan, and deal with the offensive of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji against Li Shimin. In the end, she persevered and achieved today's glory, but the ups and downs are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Empress Eldest Sun still thinks back to this day, and she is still faintly afraid, and even she herself can't imagine how she survived back then. She herself has suffered a lot from taking the heir, and she also knows the helplessness of fratricide, how can she bear to see her children embark on this road of no return today?

Empress Changsun's wholehearted support for Li Chengqian was a reference to the lessons of the past. Back then, Li Jiancheng's merits were not as good as Li Shimin's, and the position of the crown prince was not stable, which gave Li Shimin an opportunity. In order to avoid this from happening, she felt that as long as Li Chengqian's status as the crown prince was solid and no one shook it, then naturally no one would touch the stone with an egg and kill himself.

However, things did not go as expected.

Li Chengqian was originally a very smart child, and he was asked to supervise the state affairs and handle them in an orderly manner, which made Li Shimin and Empress Changsun very happy. But the two never thought that Li Chengqian, who had tried the taste of power, could not withstand the temptation of power, and behaved more and more domineeringly, with no one in his eyes, and even did not allow others to disobey him. In the face of upright teachers, Li Chengqian sang the opposite tune with them with a high attitude: Let me learn, I want to play; Let me be in good shape, I prefer to let loose the skeleton; Let me be far from the villain, close to the minister; I prefer to be far away from the minister, close to the villain.

This is the rebellious period of juveniles, according to statistics, ten of the most ** juvenile offenders are because of the rebellious period caused by the criminal heart.

Li Chengqian is the crown prince, and his rebellion is more ordinary and more serious. It is easy to turn from good to evil, and it is difficult to improve from evil.

Li Chengqian fell during the rebellious period, and he is no longer the smart and well-behaved prince. His behavior became more and more perverse and unacceptable. At one point, he even shouted, "I am the Son of Heaven, and I should do as I please; If there is a counselor, I will kill them, kill 500 people, who will dare to persuade them again? ”

He has such a mentality before he becomes an emperor, if he really becomes an emperor, then he can pay it back, I am afraid that there will be another tyrant in history.

Li Shimin has already moved his mind to abolish the crown prince, and the reason why he has not moved for a long time is because there is no suitable candidate, and the vacant position of the prince will only make more people worry about it, so it is better to let Li Chengqian carry it first.

Empress Changsun faintly sensed her husband's meaning, and was secretly dissatisfied in her heart, not knowing what was wrong with Li Chengqian. She was in the palace, so she naturally didn't know what Li Chengqian was doing, and occasionally heard that she also got some vague answers, after all, few people would say in front of a mother how bad her son was, not to mention that this mother was the queen and her son was the crown prince of the dynasty.

In the eyes of Empress Changsun, Li Chengqian is a little naughty at most, and he still teaches him.

It is also the nature of mothers, and there is no mother who will not forgive her child, and no mother will give up her child.

But today, Empress Changsun heard Gao Yang say that Changle and Li Chengqian had a head-on conflict, which made her heart cold by half.

Changle is brought up by her, she knows Changle's character well, she is the kind of woman who is extremely virtuous, although she is the eldest princess, she does not fight with others, she is careful in everything, and she is the most popular in the palace. This time, even she had a confrontation with Li Chengqian head-on, which made Empress Changsun feel uneasy for the first time.

"Changle, you honestly tell your mother about today's events, especially about your eldest brother. The queen mother lives in the palace, and everything she hears and sees is true and false, and I really don't know how your eldest brother is doing today......"

Like the eldest grandson queen. After all, Li Chengqian is Changle's eldest brother, whenever Li Chengqian is involved, Du He, Wu Meiniang, Li Xueyan, etc., no one will be willing to speak out about their shortcomings, making Changle ugly, and Changle will ask. And only pick and talk about irrelevant things.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes in Hongfu Temple, Changle wouldn't have believed that the filial son who was obedient in front of his mother would be like this outside.

Changle didn't want to make his mother sad, but he couldn't disobey his mother's wishes, so he hesitated and told the truth.

Changle said: "I don't know if the queen mother still remembers the historical story she told us when she was a child, you said that the emperor of the previous dynasty, Yang Guang, was so ambitious and domineering, but I am the only one." When the canal was repaired, there was a section of the place that was particularly difficult to dig, Yang Guang did not know how to pretend to understand, and used force to dig together, and some experts pointed out the correct method to Yang Guang, saying that Yang Guang's digging method would make the mud and stone washed down upstream precipitate, and the channel would be blocked. But Yang Guang did not allow others to disobey him, acted independently, and still dug in his own way. Sure enough, ten years later, that section of the canal was severely blocked. My father had planned to use the canal to transport grain north for military use, but the waterway was blocked on the way, delaying the dispatch of troops. was so angry that his father almost beheaded the grain transport officer. You said that as a member of the royal family, you are sought after by tens of millions of people, and you are the most easily deceived by others, you can't see your true weight clearly, and you feel that you can do anything, but in fact everything is empty. Just like Yang Guang, he used the power of the whole country to dig the canal, but because of his arbitrariness, the canal was blocked. Let us take him as a lesson, be loyal to our ears, not be arrogant, and not be empty-minded because we are royalty. Now the eldest brother gives me the feeling that he is like this Yang Guang who does not listen to persuasion......"

Changle praised Li Chengqian as Yang Guang, which really exalted Li Chengqian.

How mediocre Yang Guang is, he is still a little poundy. Although he defeated the entire dynasty, he still left a good legacy for future generations. At best, Li Chengqian is so ambitious and domineering, but he is somewhat similar to Yang Guang in terms of his own respect, and he is not comparable to him in other aspects.

Empress Changsun's face was pale, and she couldn't imagine that Li Chengqian had fallen to this point, Yang Guang was the king of the dead country, and Changle's praise of Li Chengqian as Yang Guang was undoubtedly the most severe criticism.

"No wonder, no wonder......" She finally understood why her husband hated iron but not steel, why the reasonable Du He had such a stiff quarrel with Li Chengqian, and why Li Chengqian's teachers all said that Li Chengqian was difficult to teach. It's not that they are too harsh on Li Chengqian, but that Li Chengqian is really unbearable.

"Queen Mother...... Are you okay? Changle looked worried.

Empress Eldest Sun forced a smile and said, "It's okay...... The queen mother suddenly felt a little tired...... You go down first to bring the children and children and children for the queen mother, and let the queen mother be quiet. ”

Changle also knew Empress Changsun's expectations for Li Chengqian, and her words today might bring sadness to her mother, but as a royal daughter, she must make a wise choice. She doesn't fight with others, it doesn't mean that she is willing to see the Tang Dynasty ruined.

Empress Eldest Sun's eyes were hollow, sad, tears streaming down her eyes, and some decisions were painful, but she had to make a choice.

This is what you must do as the queen of the world.

She has everything that ordinary people don't have, so she has to pay a price that ordinary people won't pay.

In her early years, she was fighting and supporting herself in intrigues, but now she is giving up a son......

Such a decision is so painful for a mother.

In the face of Buddhism, the institution of the Tang Dynasty operated and solved it at the fastest speed.

Dali Siqing and Shangshu of the Criminal Department launched an interrogation overnight, and Nayan, as the mastermind, had three lives, and had absolutely no reason to live, so he was sentenced to death and paraded through the streets for three days to eliminate the resentment in the hearts of the people. As the first accomplice, Huikong aided the abuse, and sentenced him to exile in Lingnan to contribute to the development of the wasteland in Lingnan.

As for the other presiding monks who often debate with them, everyone is guilty of making a mistake and is sentenced to imprisonment according to the severity of the sentence.

As for the unexpected acquittal of the pigtail machine.

For no other reason, he is not the presiding officer, nor is he a monk of Hongfu Temple.

The food and drink where he lived were all given by Nayan and the original temple, and he did not directly participate in the accumulation of wealth, so it was not considered a crime.
