Chapter 17 Who is the Prince?

Lai Junchen is also waiting, waiting for Liu Renliang to step down.

But there was no chance, after several court political debates, Liu Renliang fell behind, his emotions were lost, and even his body was angry a lot.

That night, Liu Renliang returned home, thinking about the general manager of the court, when Taizong was there, how passionate the court was, foaming at the mouth, and how aggressive Wei Zheng was, and reprimanded the emperor so that he couldn't get off the stage, and his face was red. But now? The prime minister has to look at a woman's complexion, or a woman surnamed Wu, the queen of the first emperor, how much of a joke did Cang Tian and Li Tang make?

The more I think about it, the more anxious I become, and the more I think about it, the more I can't figure it out. Liu Renliang shouted, the country is like this, what face do we have to see the first emperor Li Tang Laochen? Then he fell to the ground.

Liu Renliang is seriously ill, even if Wu Zetian is dissatisfied, he will not fall into the well at this time, a family with no background is missing the most important pillar, and it will inevitably fall apart and plummet. This is the case with the Wu family, Wu Zetian personally experienced how difficult it was for the martial arts family when the warrior died.

Wu Zetian specially sent the imperial doctor to take care of him, but Prime Minister Liu was indeed lacking in skills.

Wu Zetian routinely sent people to ask who could succeed him as prime minister, and if there was anything he couldn't let go.

It is a common practice for kings to ask for talents in important ministers, especially the elders of the four dynasties like Liu Renliang. Whether a person has perseverance and perseverance determines whether a person can become a talent, whether a person can maintain his or her heart, how far a person can go on a road, and whether a person's cultivation determines whether a person can have good interpersonal relationships. People in high positions can see more and see more widely, so the emperors of previous dynasties will ask their courtiers to recommend suitable people. The annals of history have also proved its correctness.

Coming to the end of my life, I have the deepest understanding of powerlessness. People are about to die, and their words are also good, Liu Renliang recommended the most respected person in the Manchu Dynasty, Di Renjie. In terms of talent, Di Renjie can appease the people of a state, and in terms of morality, Di Renjie is outspoken and daring to admonish, quite Wei Zheng's style. It's just that why can't Di Renjie assist Li Tang's bloodline with him? Providence makes people.

Wu Zetian's reply to Liu Renliang was quite strange. It is human nature for Cui Cha to recommend Wu Sansi, but why did Liu Renliang recommend Di Renjie? He was bent on restoring Li Tang, entering the dynasty as an official, and also holding the nature of guarding the country for the martial wheel, but he recommended my henchmen? Could it be that Di Renjie was also attracted by Liu Renliang and was willing to respect Wulun as the king? Or is there any deal between these two? Di Renjie, how many great things have you done for me, and you have helped me a lot when I was the queen, but I also have the mind that I should not be called the emperor?

Since Liu Renliang's reply, a crack has been born between the monarch and the minister. Wu Zetian was not afraid of the betrayal of his subordinates, but he was unwilling to tolerate his comrades-in-arms for many years, disobeyed his wishes, and had a different heart.

Liu Renliang died of illness seven days later, and his phase was empty. Many people are trying to fill this gap, but no one is willing to do so. First, he has a bad reputation, Liu Renliang has just died, and he is in a hurry to compete for fame and fortune, which is not the work of a gentleman. The second is that Wu Zetian is important to everyone, everyone can see, it is not terrible to be generous and laughing without approval for self-recommendation, but it is not easy to offend today's powerful ministers.

For three days in a row, the DPRK and China kept silent about this, and Wu Zetian did not decide who to give this position to.

After the early dynasty, Emperor Wu summoned Di Renjie alone.

Emperor Wu: "Now, I have two sons, who is the right prince to be the prince?" ”

Di Renjie: "Naturally, he is the king of Luling." ”

The Martial Emperor was a little puzzled, "Why?" ”

Di Renjie: "Although the king of Luling is mediocre, he is filial and weak, if you leave him a group of old ministers to assist, he may not be able to become a talent and keep the society." However, King Yin had no strategy, but he was stubborn and self-serving, and ended up with the lost field of Yaxian. It can be seen which is stronger and which is weak. ”

Emperor Wu could only respond to him with a hehe, if he asked him that the first emperor had also left a cadre of important ministers, he would inevitably reply to His Majesty, and he would naturally be able to beat them a lot.

Emperor Wu: "King Luling is far away in the sky, how do you know if he has grown?" ”

Di Renjie: "It is difficult to become a talent without suffering, it is a blessing rather than a curse." Today's suffering can make him understand the suffering of the people, and it can also make him understand some truths, and whether he can learn some skills to check and use people depends on his creation. ”

In the past, if Di Renjie was willing to support King Luling and Liu Renliang supported King Yin, the two would not have much intersection, but they would also have the same interests.

After hearing this, the indignation in Emperor Wu's heart was swept away, but she could no longer fully trust Di Renjie, she waved Di Renjie away, and invited Shen Sanwen to ask.

Emperor Wu: "Liu Renliang recommended Di Renjie as the prime minister, what do you think?" Is Di Renjie loyal? ”

Shen Sanwen now understands Emperor Wu's thoughts, and he doesn't want to believe or accept Di Renjie's betrayal, so asking him is equivalent to calculating a hexagram for Di Renjie.

Shen San asked: "Betrayal, there is no betrayal." Loyalty, and disloyalty. If Wang Mang died early, he would have gone down in history, and Sanwen believed that Master Di was a true loyal person. But he may not do things that are detrimental to His Majesty. ”

Emperor Wu came to be interested, "If you do something detrimental to me, it is a betrayal." Can this also be called loyalty? ”

Shen Sanwen thought to himself, although Di Renjie was loyal, he kept a back hand for himself and recommended Zhang Khan Zhi, a supporter of the Li family who was very deep in the city government. Zhang Cambodia's ability to restore Li Tang was given by Di Renjie. Di Renjie naturally understands Zhang Cambodia's thoughts, otherwise, after the liquidation of this history, what did Di Renjie rely on to be able to worship the Taimiao with Zhang Cambodia and enjoy the worship of Li Tang Junchen for generations?

Shen San asked: "Although Lord Di is loyal to His Majesty, the loyalty he thinks is not necessarily the same as His Majesty. ”

Emperor Wu: "Since he is loyal, then this matter can be put down." Li Xian and Li Lun, who can be the prince? ”

Shen San asked: "King Luling and King Yin both have the emperor's destiny, and King Luling is not good at power and cannot control power. Although King Yin has some means that can also win people's hearts, he is too merciful and cannot last long. ”

Emperor Wu: "What will happen to this country?" ”

Shen San asked: "Yin Wangfu, a second son was born a month ago, and his name has been chosen, called Li Longji." I wonder if Your Majesty has heard of it? ”

Emperor Wu: "He is the concubine of King Yin, and he is not the eldest son." ”

Shen San asked: "The concubine can change with the change of Princess Yin, and Taizong and the first emperor are not the eldest sons. This person will become the real master of the Tang Dynasty in the future, creating a prosperous era no less than Taizong. ”

Emperor Wu: "Li Longji? I remembered. ”

Shen San asked: "But he will also make the lives miserable, the country will fall, and the etiquette will collapse, he will respect King Yin as the emperor, and he will inevitably be replaced and become the fate of the emperor." ”

Emperor Wu: "Sometimes, I don't believe so much. Tianji, can you really spy so far? ”

Shen San asked: "The mandate of heaven is not immutable, it can be changed if it comes out of my mouth and enters your ears." Your Majesty doesn't believe that he can subvert the country? ”

Emperor Wu smiled without saying a word.
