Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

In an instant, the civil and military officials and workers of the entire court were staggering to and fro, countless people were kneeling on the ground, crying and screaming, there were thousands of mixed and chaotic scenes.

Chapter 1020

"I do not believe!"

Wei Zheng was the first to wake up from the grief of hearing the sad news, and after a loud roar, he was about to rush to the Dragon Court, but was blocked by a golden armored warrior in the hall, who held him tightly, preventing Wei Zheng from taking half a step forward.

Wei Zheng struggled and shouted: "How can your majesty say that you will die when you die? It's not true, it's not true!"

Wei Zheng’s good comrade-in-arms, Wei Ting, who never left the scale, also waved his arms and shouted: "Impossible, Your Majesty is in good health and is in the prime of life, even if he is not acclimatized to the soil and suffers from a serious disease, it is impossible for him to die in such a short period of time." Yu Bintian. Rumors, this must be someone with ulterior motives spreading rumors!"

Although Changsun Wuji had always been at odds with His Majesty Li Er, he couldn't help but look sad at this moment. He slowly straightened up and stood firm, and cupped his hands at Li Yuan in the Dragon Court and shouted: "The Supreme Emperor, about the emperor driving in the south of the Yangtze River. The matter of the collapse is really too abrupt and strange, could it be a misrepresentation? Or, is there something wrong in it?"

"Yes, yes, this is too unbelievable."

"Your Majesty is in good health and has never had any hidden illnesses. How can this acclimatization kill people?"

"Someone must have made a mistake."

"If you want to say that His Majesty has passed away, I, Cheng Yaojin, will be the first to not believe it!"

"I think back then, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were great wars, and the old ministers of the Tiance Mansion followed His Majesty to fight in the north and south, and almost lost our lives many times, but His Majesty put them to death and survived. He was blessed by God, and lucky people have their own heavens." Look, it is impossible to pass away because of a small evil disease."

"Do not believe!"

"I don't believe it!"

All of a sudden, all the officials in the court raised questions one after another, which made Li Chengqian dumbfounded and his expression suddenly changed, while the three brothers Lu Wang were even more parched, and their hearts were beating wildly.

They didn't realize at all that Li Shimin's prestige in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty was so high.

It was Li Yuan who had experienced battles for a long time and was used to strong winds and waves, so he was not intimidated by the intimidating battle of the officials in front of him.I saw him waving the jizou in his hand, and shouted loudly in his chest: "Quiet, the noise above the court hall is like a market in a vegetable market, how is it proper? Jizou is here in the eight hundred miles of the Jiangnan Yujia camp, and it can still be done." Can it be faked? Not only does it have the emperor’s personal seal on it, but also the ink pen personally approved by the lord of the six palaces, Empress Changsun, for the emperor. Can it be faked? Changsun Wuji—”

ba da~

Li Yuan threw Ji Zuo at Zhangsun Wuji's feet with a sudden shake of his hand, and shouted: "Changsun Wuji, you are the queen's elder brother, and you are also Shimin's assistant minister. Regarding the queen's handwriting, there is also Shimin's handwriting." The personal seal that you carry with you, you should be very familiar with it, right? Take a look and see if the [-]-mile expedited memorial from the Jiangnan Imperial Driving Camp is true or not!"

Changsun Wuji leaned over to pick up the jousting, and began to review it carefully...

Then, everyone's eyes fell on Changsun Wuji again.

Not far away, King Jing gently elbowed Li Yuanfang, king of filial piety, and was about to open his mouth to inquire, but Li Yuanfang stared back and shut up decisively.

King Lu also looked nervous, licked his dry lips, and asked in a low voice, "Yuan Fang, this..."

"Brother Lu, don't worry!"

Li Yuanfang signaled with a voice as thin as a mosquito: "The calligrapher I found has copied the queen's handwriting for more than two months. It is so lifelike that even if the queen comes in person, it is impossible to find the flaws. As for the handwriting Father had already prepared the private seal that he was carrying. Unless it is Zhangsun Wuji who has sharp eyes, otherwise..."

Speaking of this, Li Yuanfang shook her head slightly, and looked at the two confidently, so as to reassure them.

"it is true!"

Changsun Wuji uttered three words in a heavy voice, but it was earth-shattering, causing the entire court to pass by like a hurricane, and fell into a catastrophic situation.

Immediately, Changsun Wuji raised his head, twitched his nose, took a long breath, and added: "It's true, it's true, the seal and handwriting are absolutely true, without any adulteration!"

For a moment, the ministers of the DPRK and China lowered their heads one by one, slowly accepting this reality, and the hall was silent.

Suddenly, whoever took the lead wailed, and in an instant, like dominoes collapsing, Chao Wenwu burst into tears one by one, holding their heads or covering their faces. Soon, a choking atmosphere permeated the entire Qinzheng Hall.

"quiet!"

Standing on the Dragon Court, Li Yuan took a look at the atmosphere in the court hall, seeing these civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty grieving so much for his son Li Shimin because of a false news, it would be a lie to say that he was not envious or jealous.

Back then, my good son killed his own brother at Xuanwu Gate, and finally went to the palace to force him to abdicate, but he didn't see these people cry for him.

People are more dead than people, and goods are thrown away!

Li Yuan felt a sense of sourness in his heart for no reason, and shouted loudly: "The people of the world die in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is more difficult than you alone. Let me ask you, is there anything in the world that can be more wonderful than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person?" Sad? This is the pain of the skin, how can you feel it? But, now is not the time to cry. Reason, a country cannot be without a king for a day. Therefore, Gu here proposes that the crown prince Chengqian should inherit the throne immediately, and hope that Qing and others will follow Guyi to support Chengqian to succeed him."

"what?"

"So fast?"

After listening to Li Yuan's words, the more rational officials were all astonished, obviously expressing shock that the Supreme Emperor was about to support a new king so soon.

Among them, Fang Xuanling came out after wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, shaking his head and said: "The Supreme Emperor, the emperor has just passed away, his bones are not cold, and the body has not even been transported back to Chang'an, so he hastily supported the new emperor. Is it cool?"

"What do you know?"

Li Yuan's complexion changed, and he scolded directly: "If you don't establish a new emperor, how can you organize the funeral for Emperor Daxing? Besides, Chengqian is the heir apparent established by Emperor Daxing before his death. It is legal and legitimate for him to inherit the throne."

Kong Yingda stood up at the right time to stand up for Fang Xuanling and said, "Forgive me for not agreeing with the words of the Supreme Emperor. If you want to have a funeral, you have to wait for the body of Emperor Daxing to be transported back to Chang'an from the south of the Yangtze River, right? How about letting the new king ascend the throne? As for the funeral, I think Zongzheng Temple can take care of it on his behalf. This is also traceable in my dynasty before the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the old minister feels that it is completely okay to support the new king. Postpone, you shouldn't be so hasty!"

"Kong Yingda, you are presumptuous!"

Li Yuan yelled angrily: "You old man, don't want to rely on your old man to deceive people! This world is the world of the Li family. Does the candidate for the new emperor need you, an old man, to chatter here? I will do it today." Support the new monarch, so as to rectify the legal system of the Li family of our Tang Dynasty."

"Hehe, the Supreme Emperor, are you acting out of embarrassment?"

Kong Yingda, who always pretended to be deaf and sleepy every time he went to court, suddenly became hardened. He raised his chest and looked at Li Yuan and said in a loud voice: "The new king can be established, but he must not be so hasty, and he must not be in a hurry. If the emperor insists on going his own way, the old minister will Today, I will remonstrate to the end in this court!"

"Chen Wei Zheng seconded the proposal. I would rather slam my head on this dragon pillar to death than let the Supreme Emperor mess around and ruin the great foundation left by Emperor Daxing!"

"Chen Weiting seconded the proposal."

"Chu Suiliang seconded the proposal."

"The ministers and others seconded the proposal, risking their lives to remonstrate directly, and also ask the Supreme Emperor to take back Chen's order, and don't interfere in the government!"

Crash, clatter, the voice of opposition was like a wave, Wei Zheng and others' Jian Yu party faction stood up, Kong Yingda and others' Shilin Qingliu faction stood up, and many officials from the former ministers' faction of Tiance Mansion also stood up.

Obviously, Li Yuan's proposal to support the new monarch on the spot was met with unprecedented obstruction.

At this moment, most of them are still waiting and watching, watching the statement of Changsun Wuji, the leader of Tiance Mansion.

Li Yuan also noticed this, and immediately turned his head to look at Changsun Wuji, and asked with all his might, "Master Changsun, what do you think? Don't forget, you are Chengqian's uncle, once Chengqian Ascend to the throne, you are the minister of the dragon. From now on, you will continue to be your auxiliary minister, and continue to lead the ministers to be the head of the hundred officials!"

Changsun Wuji glanced at the situation above the court at this time, and then glanced at those officials of Tiance Mansion who only followed his lead.

He suddenly thought in his heart, what Li Yuan said is right, I am Cheng Qian's uncle, who should I support if I don't support him?And in the current situation, once Cheng Qian ascends the throne, the power of today's opponents will inevitably be weakened. At that time, the leaders and ministers of my Tiance Mansion will be on top of the court.

So and so, why not do it?

Immediately, he winked at Tang Jian and others, then cupped his hands and shouted: "The Supreme Emperor is right, a country cannot live without a king, and Chengqian is the crown prince appointed by Emperor Daxing before his death. It is reasonable for him to succeed What's more, the legal system. Therefore, the ministers are willing to support His Royal Highness to ascend the throne!"

"I will!"
