Chapter Seventy-Six: The New Emperor Ascends the Throne

After discussing the future arrangements with King Qi, Li Ye was about to drink a few cups, but there was a rumor in the palace, and Li Yan asked Li Ye to enter the palace immediately, saying that there was something to discuss.

In the past, Li Yan rarely gave Li Ye a decree to let him enter the palace, if Li Yan was idle, he would come to King An's Mansion by himself when Li Ye was resting. At other times, they all sent someone to wear a message, saying that there was a masterpiece recently, so that Li Ye could enjoy it when he had time, and the time was decided by Li Ye himself.

It seems that this matter is still more urgent today.

Li Ye naturally had no reason to refuse, and immediately entered the palace with the eunuch. To Li Ye's surprise, this time Li Yan saw him, not in a place to have fun, but in the most serious Hanyuan Palace.

Li Yan, who is high on the throne, wears a crown of pearls, a dragon cannon, and a long sword at his waist, and his head is solemn, as if he wants to participate in some memorial ceremony. This is an extremely rare thing for Li Yan, who has always dressed casually on weekdays.

I have to say that people rely on clothes, and at this time, Li Yan has lost the color of wine and meat, and has a lot of majesty. All this is clearly shown, he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Ye didn't know which one Li Yan was singing, maybe the other party felt that he should change his face and become a responsible and authoritative emperor? These thoughts flashed in Li Ye's heart, and he behaved like a courtesy without any emotion.

After letting Li Ye flatten, Li Yan stood by the sword, and in the gaze of the former, he posed for a while, and then asked Li Ye with a smile: "How is it, Brother Ye, do I look like an emperor?"

Li Ye felt helpless in his heart, but he still cooperated on his face, "Your Majesty is naturally a dragon with deep power, which makes the courtiers heartbroken." ”

Whether Li Ye believes this or not, Li Yan himself doesn't believe it anyway. He sat back on the dragon chair boringly, and the momentum he had just deliberately pretended to be had no intention of maintaining, staring at Li Ye motionless for a while.

Li Ye didn't know why, so he could only cast a questioning look at him.

At the end, Li Yan sighed and said sincerely: "When it comes to the majesty of the emperor, Brother Ye is indeed more than a hundred times stronger than me, you stand there at will, and you also have the momentum to make your subjects bow down, even if I sit on the throne, I feel that I am not much different from ordinary people." ”

If these words were to change the scene and happen among other monarchs and ministers, the problem would undoubtedly be very serious, but when Li Yan came out of his mouth, there were heart-to-heart words. But Rao is like this, this is not appropriate after all, and Li Ye also spoke out to admonish.

Li Yan waved his hand, signaling Li Ye not to say much, he sat up straight, looked at Li Ye, and said word by word: "Letting Brother Ye enter the palace today is a very important thing - this may be the most important decision I have ever made in my life and has the most far-reaching impact on the dynasty!"

Li Ye vaguely realized something, but he couldn't be sure, because it was too incredible, so he could only wait for Li Yan to continue.

Li Yan took a deep breath, as if there was an extra mountain on his shoulder, which made him a little breathless, and then he exhaled again, and his expression immediately relaxed, as if the mountain had been removed from his shoulder.

After taking a deep breath, Li Yan said his decision as the emperor: "I have decided to give up the throne to you!"

Even if he had a trace of preparation, when he really heard this, Li Ye's heart still swelled up.

......

The snow is all over the sky, the snow is three feet, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace are constant

Sweeping the road, busy with sweat on his forehead, but no one dared to slack off.

Li Yan walked on the wet road, and there was a creaking sound under his feet from time to time.

The eunuchs who were waiting were pushed far away by him, and no one came to hold an umbrella for him, and his shoulders and head were soon covered with snowflakes. The crown of the dragon robe and beads, which originally set off the emperor's majesty, gradually changed beyond recognition, and it can no longer give people half of the strength.

Or perhaps, it never gives people strength. When Huang Chao attacked Chang'an and Li Yan fled in a hurry in a dragon robe, he was already aware of this. What can give him strength is the thousands of troops and horses who are loyal to the dynasty and willing to fight for him.

Li Yan will not forget how happy he was when he was in a predicament in Chengdu and panicked all day long, when he heard that King An led his army to break the chaotic army, recovered the Beijing division, and wanted to welcome him back to the court.

Coming to the West Garden, Li Yan boarded the dragon boat. The water in the pond has been frozen, and the dragon boat can no longer sail and can only anchor on the shore. However, Li Ye didn't care about this, he came to Class A and ordered someone to set up a warm wine.

Enjoying the beautiful scenery alone in the wind and snow was originally a lonely thing, Li Yan hated loneliness the most, that would make people feel that they had nothing to rely on, no one knew him, he liked to be lively, so he used to let Li Ye enter the palace to accompany him.

But today, Li Yan thinks it's not bad to sit alone and enjoy the snow.

He remembered the ambush that happened on this dragon boat some time ago.

When he woke up at that time, he was told that the matter was completely over, and Li Ye not only did not suffer half of the damage, but instead wiped out the ambushers. This made Li Yan feel scared for a while while rejoicing.

He knew very well that if Li Ye died, he would not end well. Nowadays, the free and undisturbed fun life will only become a bitter memory in a dream.

After sobering up, Li Yan felt very sorry for Li Ye, after all, the other party was called into the palace by him, and he, as the lord of the palace and as the emperor, did not say that he could protect the other party's thoroughness, and he couldn't even distinguish whether his henchmen were meticulous, and sent the other party and the dynasty into a dangerous situation.

Afterwards, Li Ye sent someone to take over the defense of the palace, Li Yan didn't feel anything wrong, he thought he needed Li Ye's protection. The hands of those who are close to the old ones are really too unreliable.

Now, the situation of the world's attack on the Tang Dynasty has been cracked, the Khitan has fallen to the country, the grassland is peaceful, the Nanzhao royal family has become a prisoner, and was escorted to Chang'an and thrown into prison, Nanzhao has been occupied by Wang Jian, the Uighurs have also been repulsed, and the imperial court is preparing to enter the Western Regions next year to complete the last piece of the puzzle in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, Li Yan was inevitably overjoyed, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that he had done everything, but at the critical time of the war, it played the opposite role.

He seriously recalled that he could not find anything beneficial to the country in himself, and the only commendable thing was to let Li Ye preside over the overall situation of the military and politics.

And now, with Li Ye's outstanding achievements, some courtiers in the court who are suspicious, or who are greedy and afraid of being dealt with by Li Ye, have begun to spread rumors, saying that Li Ye wants to replace him, and a palace change will be launched soon!

Li Yan knew that he was powerless to change people's hearts, and he didn't have the ability to preside over the world, and his mind was not on this.

Since this is the case, don't hinder Brother Ye anymore, otherwise you will be sorry for the other party's dedication to sleeping late and working hard for state affairs. In this way, even if you don't achieve anything, you won't be too ashamed to see your ancestors underground in the future.

Brother Ye is a child of the clan,

There is no doubt that Zen is located in him, and the Li family's country will only get better.

And you can do what you want without any burden, and you don't have to think about the things that give you headaches.

The wine was already warm, and Li Yan drank a glass against the heavy snow.

Although there is a sense of loneliness, it is more of a relief.

.......

Li Ye walked out of the gate of the imperial city, faced the wide and straight Suzaku Street, and stood quietly for a while.

There are few pedestrians on the streets, and the goose feathers and snow seem to be endless. The Chang'an neighborhood is plated with a layer of silver white, which looks ancient and ancient, with an abyssal artistic conception, which makes people feel peaceful and fresh, not anxious and not messy.

When Li Yan said that he wanted a Zen position, Li Ye's heart was very touched. Although in his previous life, his throne was given by Li Yan, but the situation at that time was very different from now, and the most fundamental difference was that Li Yan was seriously ill and dying in his previous life.

Living for the Zen throne and finding someone to succeed you before you die are two completely different issues. The world is so big, how can anyone willingly spit out the meat that has been eaten in his mouth?

Even if Li Yan ignores national affairs, he enjoys the dignity and power of the emperor in the slightest. , life and death, control everything, this is something that no one can discard, not even Li Ye himself.

But Li Yan did this, and he took the initiative to do it.

Prior to this, Li Yemo said that there was no persecution, and he didn't even show this meaning, let alone let ministers such as Li Zhen and Cui Keli talk nonsense, and let the Tsing Yi Yamen spread any rumors everywhere.

In such a situation, Li Yan took the initiative to meditate, so that Li Ye couldn't help but be excited.

"The brotherhood between Your Majesty and Your Highness is truly unprecedented. Shao Si Ming behind him suddenly said, although his voice was light and agile, the envy in his words was very strong.

Da Si Ming glanced at Shao Si Ming dissatisfied, probably blaming her for not envy Li Ye so much, after all, their friendship was also fateful, and they could break off for each other at a critical moment. But as an older sister, of course she won't blame the other party for such a problem.

Li Ye smiled meaningfully, "Is there really not?"

Shao Si Ming nodded seriously: "With His Royal Highness's meritorious status, he has long been a powerful minister who no one can check and balance, but he has always stayed away from the throne and has not coveted it. Rao is persuaded by others, but he has always been indifferent, which is certainly not in the history books. And His Majesty's body is Kangtai, he is young, but he does not suppress and restrain His Highness, and he takes the initiative to Zen when he is about to take the position, which is absolutely none!"

Li Ye was stunned, and suddenly felt something in his heart, and his heart was finally completely relieved.

In fact, he felt a little sorry for his brother before. was ordered by Shao Si to say this, and finally realized that he didn't have to stick to secular etiquette at all, he and Li Yan had a deep brotherly relationship, no matter how the situation changed, this would not change.

.......

Time flies, time flies, and a new year arrives in a blink of an eye.

At the beginning of this year, an earth-shattering event occurred in the Tang Dynasty, which shook the government and the opposition: the emperor took the throne and King An ascended the throne.

In the eyes of the vast majority of Tang people, this matter was unexpected, but it was reasonable. And what makes the Tang people most proud is that there is no bloodshed and no turmoil in the Zen position, and it was the emperor who took the initiative to mention it, creating a historical precedent. In the hearts of everyone, this undoubtedly indicates that the prosperous era will come again.

The new emperor ascended the throne, changed the Yuan Heavenly Grant, rewarded hundreds of officials, and granted amnesty to the world.
