Concubine Wang Xian was stunned for a moment and said, "In my opinion, being the emperor is the most boring." ”

Li Dan said: "Yes, look at Aye, look at A-Niang, you can know a thing or two." I have to go to the morning court every few days, and after a long time, there will be a big court meeting, and I am not idle on ordinary days, I want to see the minister, I have to criticize and sparse, I have to make a lot of important decisions, and I have to sulk a lot...... I knew it for a long time, so I didn't want to be an emperor, and I didn't like to be an emperor, but why did someone always push me into this position? A-Niang never let me be the real emperor, but I'm just a puppet, what about Taiping and San Lang, aren't they using me to stabilize their position and get what they want? No matter how ridiculous my brother's emperor is, he has a bit of courage, and what about me...... It's like a joke. ”

Concubine Wang Xian was quite soft-hearted, held Li Dan's hand tenderly, and said softly: "Since this is the case, why don't you just don't do it?" ”

Li Dan didn't have any look of surprise, just sighed weakly: "Don't do it?" Is it something that says if you don't do it? ”

"Why not?" Concubine Wang Xian was puzzled, "You don't like it in the first place, think about the years you have been an emperor, although you have no great mistakes, but you have not made any achievements, and you are praising you for barely keeping the city, you are not suitable to be this emperor at all." While you haven't made a big mistake like Emperor Zhongzong, it's the right way to retire quickly and enjoy your old age in peace, at least you are not abolishing the emperor as the king, but being the emperor, no one will treat you badly, right? ”

Although the words are contrary to the ear, Concubine Wang Xian has always been like this to Li Dan, and Li Dan also knows that Concubine Wang Xian is really good for herself, but she still can't help asking: "You speak for San Lang like this, does San Lang know?" ”

Concubine Wang Xian suddenly turned her face: "You think I'm San Lang's lobbyist?" ”

"I didn't ......"

"Yes, I'm the lobbyist he sent, don't listen to me, just be trapped on this throne!" After speaking, Concubine Wang Xian got up and left the dormitory, and took the palace eunuchs out, leaving Li Dan sitting alone in the palace.

Before Li Dan asked Concubine Wang Xian, he had actually thought about whether he should simply leave it and leave all the chaos to others, but there were always many worries in his heart, which made him unable to make a decision. Concubine Wang Xian's words had an impact on him, and he had already begun to delegate power to the crown prince Li Longji earlier, that is, he did not reject abdicating to make way for Xian, but he was still a little awkward about this San Lang.

San Lang has suffered too many grievances, he will not bear it, but San Lang is living too smoothly and well, and he feels uneasy. It's only to blame why he had to put Da Lang on the candidate for the storage position, if he had identified San Lang as the crown prince early on, then Taiping would not have said anything about Da Lang's identity as the eldest son, and Da Lang would not have any threat to the throne, and he could abdicate with peace of mind. But now, it's too late to say anything.

And the celestial phenomenon is true, the providence is like this, even if he really moves the mind to kill San Lang, he probably can't kill him, right?

Anyway, since it's not interesting, then don't do it, it's useless for anyone to stop it, this is what he wanted to do a long time ago, and he finally made up his mind.

As soon as he made the decision, he felt relieved and relaxed.

Li Dan was relaxed, and everyone else was stunned.

The most fierce reaction was none other than Princess Taiping.

When Cui Xiang stepped into the house, he was stepping on a piece of broken pottery, and when he looked at it, the room was full of messes.

When Princess Taiping first heard the news, she resolutely didn't believe it, it was the throne, he Li Dan was an emperor, since he was the emperor, how could he not be angry at all in the face of this celestial phenomenon, and what to say: "Since the celestial phenomenon is like this, then I should conform to the will of heaven and pass on the throne to a talented and virtuous person." ”

But this is the case, it is always reasonable, but it is unexpected. She overestimated Li Dan's consciousness as an emperor and his desire for power, and underestimated Li Dan's desire to be an emperor. It was supposed to be a win-win situation, but she bumped into Li Dan, an emperor who had no one before or since.

She's going crazy. She was in a good situation, if Li Dan abdicated to Li Sanlang at this time, wouldn't everything she had regained with great difficulty be lost in an instant? She has been fighting with Li Sanlang for a long time, and every time there is a place where her life is harmed, if he Li Sanlang ascends the throne as the emperor, how can he let her go?

Fell over everything in the house, Princess Taiping also calmed down, as soon as she saw Cui Xiang, she asked him to join Dou Huaizhen and other prime ministers to jointly sign a letter, if not, go to the people's book, and be sure to ask the saint to take back his life. At the same time, she instructed the waiter to change his clothes, and then he could enter the palace to meet the emperor, and the pros and cons of Li Sanlang's accession to the throne, she still needed to analyze it with her brother.

In short, she will never admit defeat, let alone fate.

Donggong, who should have breathed a sigh of relief, became more and more silent at this time.

Li Dan's decision was so unexpected that including Li Chengqi and Li Longye, who had always understood Li Dan's thoughts, couldn't distinguish the truth from the falsehood of this decision, let alone Li Longji. Now that everyone is looking at the East Palace, Li Longji especially can't make any mistakes, so he ordered the entire East Palace not to have the slightest smugness, and to be more silent and humble than before.

Li Chengqi avoided suspicion at home and didn't go anywhere, Li Chengyi accompanied him, Li Longfan and Li Longye, the two brothers, who were originally in the East Palace, heard the news and immediately rushed over, but they pounced - the Son of Heaven said that he would abdicate to the crown prince, Li Longji had already gone to show his attitude and sternly refused.

This is conventional, not surprising, strangely......

"Why didn't the third brother take you with him today?" As soon as Li Longye entered the Mingde Palace, he saw Xiao Jiangyuan standing straight in the center of the hall, and he was very surprised.

Xiao Jiangyuan turned around and saluted: "Maybe I'm tired of the slave." ”

Li Longye: "......"

He didn't believe it.

Xiao Jiangyuan said: "King Xue came just in time, the slave maid has something to ask King Xue for help." ”

"You don't have to be so polite with me, just say it."

"The slave maid wants to ask King Xue to go and see Concubine Xian immediately."

Li Longye reacted immediately: "Yes, we don't know what is going on with Aye, A-Niang must know!" You wait, I'll ask. After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Jiangyuan to thank him, the person had already run away.

Xiao Jiangyuan, who smiled politely and straightened his waist and bowed slightly: "......"

Li Longfan, who had always wanted to interject but couldn't be dropped by his younger brother, was very embarrassed: "......"

learned from Concubine Wang Xian that although Li Dan was suspected of being a whim, it was indeed from the heart, and there was no temptation, and Li Longji was much more relieved. The first refusal was over, and if Aya insisted, there would be at least two more refusals, and he didn't plan to predict what would happen.

Aya's mind is really more impermanent than the will of heaven, even if it is an aunt this time, she doesn't dare to be sure easily.

Everyone thought that there would be more waves during the period, but this time Li Dan was like a rock, Ren Er said and wrote, or was serious or sneering, and he still knelt down on the book, and he didn't have any traces of loosening. Now everyone understands that the saint is going to be serious.

But just when everyone thought that the overall situation had been decided, Li Dan still went wrong.

Whether it is sincere and humble or pretending to be a gesture, three invitations and three concessions are a process that has always been followed. When he refused for the second time, Li Dan's attitude was still difficult to be resolute, but for the third time, Li Dan was a little hesitant.

Li Longji knew that in recent days, his aunt had been talking to Aya a lot, and maybe Aya would listen to any of his words. He had no choice but to resolutely refuse, the decision was always in Aya's hands, and he couldn't change anything.

Fortunately, Li Dan did not hesitate about the succession: "You said that you only had some slight achievements, but the Tang Dynasty was able to turn the crisis from the hands of Wei Shuren, and the reason why I was able to ascend the throne was not your credit?" If there is a change today, I will follow the will of heaven to pass on to you, so that Datang can avoid disasters, you don't have to wonder! ”

"But ......"

Li Dan sighed tiredly: "I didn't want to be the emperor in the first place, but now that I am older, I have less and less energy, I really feel very tired, and I am afraid of delaying the national affairs, so I want to pass on the throne to you." You are a filial son, do you have to wait until one day I am tired to death before I am willing to take the throne? ”

Li Longji hurriedly bowed: "Son is afraid! Although he has been in charge of the country, he has only been in charge for a few months, and he has not yet been able to understand the major affairs of the country, so he is afraid that he will have the trust of Aya. Compared with the previous stern refusal, this is equivalent to a promise.

Li Dan naturally understood that he didn't mean to regret it, but he found that what San Lang said coincided with what his sister said to him not long ago, and it made sense, so he thought about it and said, "What San Lang said is also right." I want to pass on the throne, but also for the stability of the Tang Dynasty, but I don't want to cause chaos to the country, you are still young, and you don't have much experience in dealing with state affairs, if you are directly made the emperor, I am afraid that you will be in a hurry for a while, and the current court can not stand it. ”

Li Dan sighed helplessly: "Don't worry, although I passed the throne to you, how can I forget the country?" In the future, the master of the military state, I will take care of myself, and I will not let you run out of ideas. ”

The swan song of the Tang Dynasty
