A few days later.

The holy car arrived outside the city of Chang'an.

When I arrived, it was already dusk, and gusts of cold winter wind whistled, blowing the Tang Dynasty flag on the city wall.

The news of Li Zhi's return had already reached Chang'an.

A group of civil and military officials were outside against the cold wind, shivering from the cold, and their faces were red.

Even though the temperature in Chang'an is a little higher than in Luoyang, it is only some, and they don't know how long they have been standing.

Li Xian and Li Dan saw the chariot coming over and hurriedly greeted them.

In the past, they were all full of smiles, but now their faces are full of heaviness, and their steps are like chains tied to a thousand pounds.

As soon as Li Xian wanted to speak, Li Yunxiao's tired voice came from the car: "Your father needs to rest, go back and talk about it." ”

Li Xian and Li Dan stood aside respectfully and let the carriage enter the city.

The civil and military officials stood on both sides to make way, and no one said a word more.

Return to Tai Chi Palace.

Li Zhi was already delirious at this time, and slowly opened his eyes a little slit.

"Tai Chi Palace... That's it.. The world after death..."

Wu Meiniang stepped forward and gently stroked Li Zhi's shoulder: "You're fine, the emperor brought you back." ”

Li Zhi couldn't open his eyes, but he could still feel the warm internal force in his chest.

"I want to... I didn't think I'd ever come back..."

Below, Li Xian, Li Dan, and Princess Taiping were already waiting in the house with tears in their eyes.

Princess Taiping stepped forward and cried, "Father." ”

Li Zhi heard the voice of Princess Taiping, and hurriedly comforted: "Ping'er, don't cry, my father is fine, I just want to sleep for a while, I haven't seen enough of your dancing." ”

Princess Taiping held back tears.

"My father will be able to turn evil into good fortune, my daughter has invited a high monk and Taoist, and she is praying for you, I will call them in!"

"Let them go."

A faint voice came out of Li Yunxiao's mouth, and Princess Taiping looked at Li Yunxiao with an indignant expression.

"I pray for my father, why do you stop me!"

"Buddha?"

"Prayer?"

"If there really is a god, if there is really a Buddha who overlooks the world, then where did so many disasters and famines come from, and where are they !!at this time?"

Taiping looked at Li Yunxiao's bloodshot eyes, listened to the low but deafening voice, and didn't dare to refute.

"Is Xian'er there?" At this time, Li Zhi suddenly asked.

"The child is here!" Li Xianpao pulled away the peace, tears dripped down his cheeks, and knelt in front of the bed.

Li Zhi gasped and said: "I actually don't fancy you to be the prince, but Hong'er's fate has fallen, Xian'er is rebellious, and the will of heaven is like this, and there is no way." ”

"I say this to let you know the truth, if you blame me, then blame."

Li Xian shook his head: "The child doesn't want the position of the prince, and he doesn't want the throne, the child must study hard in the future and no longer be greedy for fun!" ”

Li Zhi felt more comfortable when he heard this.

"What I gave you, how can you not accept it, in the future, you must treat the world with your heart..."

Wu Meiniang watched Li Zhi talk to her two sons without saying a word.

She was also very apprehensive in her heart.

With her current understanding of Li Zhi, she will definitely not ignore her existence.

Just thinking about it, Li Zhi suddenly said: "Mei Niang... The emperor has been working hard for decades, and after I die, if the emperor doesn't want to pay attention to it and retires to the mountains and forests, the child will rely on you..."

"Rely on me?" Wu Meiniang's face was incredulous.

She thought that it would be possible for Li Zhi to abolish her, confiscate all her rights, or be demoted to a commoner, but she didn't expect that he would let her assist her son!

Li Zhi opened his eyes with the last of his strength and looked at Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang's palm showed internal force, took the hand behind Li Yunxiao, and hugged it into her arms.

She knew that Li Zhi had something to say to her.

Li Yunxiao gasped slightly and walked to the table next to him and took a seat.

At this time, Li Zhi whispered: "Mei Niang... If I... If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have been so happy and miserable... Bitter..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhi's arm fell heavily.

This time, he was literally asleep forever, and he didn't breathe at all.

"Heh..."Wu Meiniang suddenly sneered, tears rolling in her eyes.

Then he buried his head in Li Zhi's chest and wept silently.

From the first time they fell in love in her arms to their death in her arms, many memories flashed in her mind like pictures.

It's not that she doesn't love Li Zhi, it's just that the hearts of the two of them have changed in the past ten years.

Li Yunxiao waved his hand and stunned the princes who were kneeling on the ground and crying.

The voice was weak, "Now is the best time for you to kill me." ”

Wu Meiniang stared straight at Li Zhi: "From the beginning to the present, I have never thought of killing you, and I can't kill you." ”

Li Yunxiao didn't speak anymore and got up to leave.

"Emperor!"

Li Yunxiao's footsteps paused slightly.

Wu Meiniang asked, "If I participate in the government, will you kill me?" ”

Li Yunxiao looked at Li Zhi expressionlessly.

"It's not important..."

Suddenly, Li Yunxiao thought of something, took out three mirrors from his arms and threw them over.

"I hope you can remember that what Taizong and Zhi'er left behind will always be a powerful and prosperous Tang Dynasty, and he is still defending you until he dies."

When the words fell, Li Yunxiao's figure jumped and disappeared into the courtyard.

Wu Meiniang looked at the mirror and was stunned.

After that, as if she had thought of something, her palms slowly clenched...

....

The next day.

Li Zhi, the son of the Tang Dynasty, announced that he had died in the Taiji Hall of Chang'an.

He reigned for nearly forty years, from weak to energetic, and joined hands with the empress to suppress the powerful and promote the imperial examination.

From the momentum of the emperor, improve the calendar, expand the territory, treat the people like sons, and be known as the king of promise.

Hearing this, the mountains and rivers were in tears, and the plants and trees were moved, and they all mourned for it.

Wu Meiniang presided over and chose a word for Li Zhi that she was most satisfied with.

Temple No.【Gojong】

The burial place is the tomb that Li Zhi asked Li Chunfeng to explore in his early years, and it was named Qianling.

That place was a forbidden place, and over the years, countless people had inexplicably disappeared in it, and it was called ominous.

But since that place was thought of by Li Zhi, he naturally had to agree with it.

It's a pity that whenever the construction does not go smoothly, the people who go to the construction, whether it is workers or officials, are all vomiting and diarrhea, as if they are infected with diseases.

This incident also made the grief-stricken people of the Manchu Dynasty curious.

Di Renjie was also transferred here to investigate.

After everything was done temporarily, the court could not be left without a monarch for a day, and Li Xian successfully ascended the throne.

And just when everyone was about to shout long live, Wu Meiniang walked in leisurely in the strange eyes of everyone, and after giving a salute to Li Xian, she sat behind the bead curtain.

The crowd was not curious that she could come in, for she had been sitting here for years, and knew her better than anyone else.

What they are curious about is that it is not Li Zhi who is in charge now, and she is also here when her son is in power, could it be that Li Xian is also suffering from a wind disease?

When Li Xian saw Wu Meiniang coming in, he naturally couldn't lose his manners, so he hurriedly got up and returned the salute.

"The child is not very familiar with these, you came just in time, and I hope that the queen mother will give me more advice."

Wu Meiniang nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I have participated in politics for my mother for decades, and I can help you!" ”

Li Xian was stunned for a moment, and habitually scratched his cheeks, he was just polite just now.

In all fairness, it doesn't matter if he is not an emperor, he mainly wants to try the taste of commanding the world.

But in the face of his mother, he didn't dare to refute, because she would really beat him.

"Well... Since the queen mother is willing to help the child, the child will listen to you. ”

Wu Meiniang nodded: "Xian'er rest assured, Weiniang will not fight with you for power, from now on, you have to study hard, understand?" ”

These words were not transmitted, but spoken.

All the ministers also heard it in their ears and shook in their hearts.

Everyone knows that Wu Meiniang likes to fight for power, but it is another taste when it comes out of her mouth.

That is to show that it is to assist Li Xian, and the rest of the people had better shut up and stop gossiping.

"Yes..."Li Xian agreed weakly.

He wants to order the world to have to live for a while, it's difficult!
