Chapter 16: The Proposal to Establish a Prince

Originally, I thought that I could expose my clothes, and I could use the words to knock and wave Xing Yujian Gu Huan Shen, so I inlaid the worm, which invaded Zheng Yu, Shu Xing, and squinted at the cadmium to unload the throat and forgiveness

What made him even more uncomfortable was that the ministers' eyes were always looking at him, all with weird smiles on their faces, as if he was a monkey jumping in circles.

Wu Chenghe's face was ugly, and as the ministers returned to the palace, they thought that this matter was over, but the turning point came.

Wu Zetian sat down on the throne, his face was calm, he glanced at the ministers, and said: "The matter of establishing a prince, I have thought about it again and again, and I always hesitate and make a decision, so let's discuss it today." ”

"What? Extremely? Extremely? Assembling the crown prince? ”

"Did I hear me right?"

"Nothing wrong with my ears?"

As soon as Wu Zetian's words fell, the ministers shouted, all of them looked incredulous, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

The establishment of the crown prince is a major event of the country, and it is also a taboo thing, and it will not be mentioned in leisure. What's more, Wu Zetian's decision to establish a prince is even more complicated, not many people dare to mention it, and even fewer Wu Zetian takes the initiative to propose it.

With Wu Chenghe's disgrace, the ministers thought that this matter was no fun, and no one thought that Wu Zetian would take the initiative to discuss the matter of establishing a prince, who could not be surprised?

Even Di Renjie and Zhang Cambodia's important ministers were also unexpected.

"This ......" Li Longji was also stunned, then woke up and said secretly: "The matter of establishing the prince should have been carried out a long time ago, but it was postponed because of the Turkic invasion in the south." Now that the Turks have fallen and the north is at peace, it is indeed time to deal with this. ”

The matter of establishing the crown prince has been debated for several years, but to no avail. Now Wu Zetian is old, and he has reached the point where he has to make a decision. Plus the tranquility of the north. This is the opportunity to deal with this.

"Great!" Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi looked ecstatic. Hold your chest high. It's almost like singing aloud.

Li Dan, Li Xian and Princess Taiping looked surprised, followed by joy.

If the Liwu clan is the crown prince, then the Li clan will be in danger. Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi were unrelenting to the Li family, and they were always thinking about putting the Li family to death. Wu Chenghei once proposed to Wu Zetian to kill the Li family, but it was only because of the opposition of the ministers that it was not carried out.

If the Wu clan becomes the emperor, how many people can the Li clan survive?

For the position of the crown prince, the Li family is determined to win. In addition, Lee's won the hearts of the people. With the support of the ministers, it should be successful.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Wu clan is His Majesty's blood relative, and the Wu clan is justified." Wang Qing took a step forward and said loudly: "Please also ask Your Majesty to make a decision." ”

"Hmm." Wu Zetian agreed very much.

"Your Majesty, your nephew must build a temple for your Majesty to worship, so that Your Majesty's name will be passed down for generations." Wu Sansi's face was flushed, and he was busy patting his chest to reassure.

These words scratched Wu Zetian's itch, and she was bent on establishing the Wu family as the crown prince, just because the Wu family would build a temple for her to worship. Otherwise, with the talents of Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghe. Where can I get into her eyes?

"Hmm." Wu Zetian nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, greatly appreciative.

Wu Chengsi was not far behind, and hurriedly promised: "Your Majesty looks at the world, swallows the four seas, and drives the heroes, who dares to disobey?" In the name of His Majesty, when the eternal legend, the nephew will order all parts of the world to build temples for His Majesty, and ask the monks to preside, three sacrifices a day. ”

"Good! Good! Good! Wu Zetian was overjoyed, with a smile on his face, smiling, and enjoying it very much.

Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi have no outstanding talent, the reason why they can have today's status is that the two of them are good at patting Wu Zetian's sycophants, and their trick to pat on the ass is to grasp the word "sacrifice", which is what Wu Zetian wants to do the most.

"Your Majesty, no." Di Renjie took a step forward and objected loudly, saying: "Looking at the past and present, there has never been a nephew who built a temple for his aunt to worship. If the Wu family is the crown prince and the Wu family is the emperor, it will be sacrificed for the father. ”

Di Renjie is the most powerful minister against Liwu as the crown prince, and of course he must be the first to stand up and speak. Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi saw it in their eyes, and they hated it so much, why did Di Renjie oppose it every time they mentioned it? And it is the most effective opposition.

If Di Renjie hadn't objected, Wu Sansi would have been the prince a long time ago, and he couldn't wait to tear Di Renjie and eat it.

"The ministers seconded the proposal." A roar sounded, and from the mouth of the ministers, seventy or eighty percent of the ministers fully supported Di Renjie.

"Elder Guo, what you said is not right." Zhang Jiafu immediately retorted and said: "Looking at the past and the present, there is no empress. His Majesty became the empress as a daughter, setting a precedent for a generation, why can't his nephew sacrifice his aunt? ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wu Zetian had a smile on his face, rushing to say, and the whole person seemed to be the source of joy.

Zhang Jiafu's words did not scratch Wu Zetian's itch, but poked Wu Zetian's heart.

Wu Zetian became the only empress in Chinese history with a female stream, which is the first time that a generation has been opened, and this is the most proud thing in Wu Zetian's life, and she can't help but be happy.

"That's right!" Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi were happy when they saw Wu Zetian, and they were also happy and echoed loudly.

"I implore Your Majesty to establish the Wu clan as the crown prince!" Wu's minions shouted for their lives.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, no nephew has been closer than a son, and it is better to establish a nephew than a son." Zhang Cambodia took a step forward and said loudly.

"Hmm." Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face was a little stiff, and then nodded, agreeing with Zhang Cambodia's words.

Blood is thicker than water, can a nephew kiss his son no matter how close he is? Wu Zetian is a person who understands, and he has to admit this.

"Your Majesty, looking at the past and the present, there has never been a person who has built a temple for a different surname." Wu Sansi took a step forward, with a sincere look on his face, as if a believer had seen a saint, and said: "The son is also a different surname, and he is a member of the Li family, and it is the ancestor of the Li family who wants to be sacrificed, not His Majesty." And the nephew's surname is Wu, he is a member of the Wu family, and he is the nephew of His Majesty, and it is the nephew's duty to build a temple to worship His Majesty. ”

"It makes sense." Wu Zetian nodded heavily and agreed.

Although Li Dan and Li Xian are Wu Zetian's own sons, they are still Li people in their bones, if they become emperors, they will definitely build a temple for the Li family, and they will not sacrifice Wu Zetian, a different surname.

This is Wu Zetian's sorrow. It's hard to find someone who satisfies her to pass on the country.

Pass it on to your nephew. The nephew has no sons; Pass it on to your son. The son has a different surname.

Next, it is a rhetorical sword, you say a word to me, both sides insist on their own words, and they all make sense, which makes it difficult for Wu Zetian to decide.

This controversy has been going on for several years, each with its own reasoning, making it difficult for Wu Zetian to decide. This is not surprising today.

In the end, no one can convince anyone, and if he continues to fight like this, even if he fights for ten years, there is no result, Wu Zetian's brows are wrinkled.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not difficult to decide." Li Longji took a step forward and shouted at Wu Zetiandao.

"Oh. San Lang, why do you say this? Wu Zetian was surprised and hurriedly asked.

The matter of establishing a prince has been debated for almost ten years, whether it is a nephew or a son. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. With Wu Zetian's shrewdness, she still hasn't made a decision after almost ten years, and Li Longji actually said that it is not difficult to decide, she is really surprised.

"Did I hear me right? Not hard to decide? ”

"If this is not difficult to decide, can it be argued for so many years?"

"Did the King of Chu say big things? Even the elders of the country dare not say this. ”

The ministers were also surprised for a while, and their eyes were round, looking at Li Longji.

Di Renjie and Zhang Cambodia, these important ministers, were also surprised, looking at Li Longji.

"San Lang, don't talk nonsense." Li Xian, Li Dan and Princess Taiping were busy reminding.

At this critical juncture of establishing the crown prince, there must be no mistakes, if Li Longji talks nonsense, the consequences are unimaginable, and the future of the Li family will be ruined.

"No matter who becomes the prince to worship His Majesty, the most important point is not whether the surname Li or the surname Wu, but whether the country can be inherited for a long time." Li Longji didn't seem to hear the doubts of the ministers.

"What do you mean?" Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

These words were exactly what everyone was thinking, and they all looked at Li Longlong with wide eyes.

"If you want to worship Your Majesty, only the country has a long heritage; If it can't be passed down for a long time, how can there be a ritual? Li Longji's voice was a little high.

"Li Longji, you are such a big dog, you dare to curse that His Majesty's country cannot be inherited for a long time, you should be punished!" Wu Sansi jumped up, raised his throat and shouted loudly, roaring like thunder.

"Li Longji, you really harbor evil intentions, and you dare to curse Your Majesty. 陛xià, when killing Li Longji. Wu Chengsi was like a crowing rooster, and he almost jumped onto the roof beam.

"This ......" cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the ministers, worried about Li Longji.

"San Lang, you are too bold, you dare to say this." Li Dan only felt that his eyes were dark and he almost fainted.

Li Longji's words are definitely taboo, and if Wu Zetian is angry, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, what is unexpected is that Wu Zetian was not angry, but thoughtful.

"If His Majesty is the emperor, it will naturally be the fortune of the country forever, if it is replaced by Wu Sansi or Wu Chenghei, it is difficult to say." Li Longji continued: "Wu Sansi can't recruit bravery, can't make meritorious contributions, His Majesty knows this; Wu Chengsi knocked on the book with those crooked melons and cracked dates, and laughed in vain, His Majesty saw it with his own eyes. The reason for this lies in the fact that they rely on His Majesty's momentum on weekdays, acting as a prestige, not taking the people in their eyes, not sympathizing with the people, and the people not loving them. If His Majesty hands over the country to them, dare to ask His Majesty, how long can His Majesty's country be inherited? ”

Li Longji's voice was not high, but the words were like thunder, hitting everyone's hearts, and their faces changed greatly.

Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi's faces were pale, their faces were distorted, and they looked at Li Longji, and their eyes were about to erupt with fire.

This is a matter of embarrassment between the two, Li Longji does not open which pot to mention, exposing their shortcomings in public, which makes them extremely unhappy, but they can't refute it.

"The king of Chu is too bold, this is certainly reasonable, once he angers His Majesty, the consequences are unimaginable." The ministers secretly said in their hearts, all of them were worried, and their faces changed greatly.

Some people even had cold sweat oozing from their faces.

"The King of Chu's words are reasonable, but it is a bad one, which will attract monstrous killing." Di Renjie also oozed cold sweat on his forehead.

Li Dan, Li Xian, and Princess Taiping glanced at each other, their faces pale.

"There is a saying: whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world! Whether it is the Li Wu clan or the Li clan, His Majesty should think about the aspirations of the people. Li Longji didn't seem to see the worried looks of the ministers.

Wu Zetian's face was ugly, his eyes were like knives, staring at Li Longji.

Li Longji held his head high, his eyes were clear, and he looked at Wu Zetian.

"Humph!" Wu Zetian stood up, flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked away quickly. (To be continued......)
