What kind of bad intentions can the little prince have?

Shortly after Li Hongxuan passed away, Li Xian was officially canonized as the prince and entered the East Palace.

Li Zhi was not in good health before, when Li Hong just passed away, he took a deep breath, waited for Li Xian to be canonized as the crown prince, he let out his breath, the wind disease broke out again, and he lay down again, his eyesight seriously deteriorated, It has almost reached the point of being invisible.So that for a long time after that, the courtiers could only see Empress Wu in the court hall, and Li Zhi seldom showed up.Empress Wu was very excited about this. Power is the best medicine for her. Li Zhi is not in good health. It was done very beautifully, and many people realized that in fact, in the court, there is no difference between having an emperor or not having an emperor. Li Zhi sometimes seems a little indecisive, but Empress Wu is vigorous and resolute, sometimes doing things faster than Li Zhi too much.This inevitably made some ministers feel a little uncomfortable. Li Zhi's health is not good. Forcing Li Zhi to come out and preside over the government is almost the same as forcing Li Zhi to die. Therefore, these people naturally found Li Xian. Is Li Xian the prince?

In the history books, there are precedents for the heroine to come to the court. For example, in the Han Dynasty, the attitude of Changle Palace was often more important than that of Weiyang Palace. Especially in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was normal for the queen mother to use her relatives to visit the court. Being a queen mother wants to have a regent addiction.And when it came to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Southern Dynasty was nothing more than that, and the Northern Dynasty also produced many powerful queen mothers.The lessons from the past are not far away, if Empress Wu is stupid, that's fine, but Empress Wu is very shrewd and capable, which is not a good thing for many ministers below.

Li Xian also lacked determination, he was quickly raised by others, and he always felt that his own mother took too much control, wouldn't it be okay to be a queen like the eldest grandson queen?You can take care of political affairs, just a few words of advice, and some innocuous little ideas. There are so many things about internal and external affairs, so you don't need to worry too much about the affairs of the external court as a queen.

"Li Xian is going to be unlucky!" Li Hong died, and Li Yue, as the clan, naturally had to go to Beijing to pay his respects. Li Zhi was in poor health, and for some reason, Empress Wu didn't approve him to return to the fief , Li Yue had to temporarily stay in Luoyang.He does not have an actual position in the court, so he does not usually go to the court, but he is very well informed. After all, so many of his partners are in the court. Li Xian has just entered the East Palace, even if Li Hong has already The road was paved for him, but after all, he hadn't fully settled in yet. In other words, even at Li Hong's time, the East Palace was not a piece of steel. After all, many people knew about Li Hong's poor health. They are not very optimistic, so naturally they have to find a new way early on, not only to take refuge in the new lord, but also to hook up with the courtiers to ensure that after the new prince appears, his position will not be threatened.

Therefore, Li Xian's East Palace was almost broken through by a group of courtiers, and even some of their words in the East Palace were secretly passed on, Li Yue naturally heard a lot.

"He is not stable now, so he was thrown into the fire. Now that the Empress Dowager has just tasted the sweetness of being in power alone, he is about to rush out to seize power. No wonder the Empress Dowager is happy!" Li Yue sat cross-legged without image Slumped down, holding a glass of almond cheese in his hand, drinking it slowly.

Mingzhu tilted her head and said, "Isn't Tianhou the prince's mother?"

Li Yue looked at Mingzhu, smiled slightly, and said: "For Tianhou, there are several sons, but there are only so many powers! Without power, Tianhou is just an ordinary queen, subject to restraint everywhere, so she would rather be wronged." Son, I will not give up the power in my hands!"

Winter Solstice is not too young. Because he loves to eat, he grows a little fat and sweats easily, so he doesn't like to move very much. Now he is imitating Li Yue and sitting there with a handful of pistachios in his hand. One peeled and ate the nuts, he chewed the nuts and swallowed them, and then said disapprovingly: "Then the prince can just take a step back, anyway, it will be his from now on, why do you have to fight against the Queen of Heaven now?"

Li Yue touched Dong Zhi's head and nodded.Although this kid sometimes looks a bit tired and lazy, he is not a dull person. On the contrary, he is relatively sharp in some aspects.That's right, the position of prince is actually the most difficult position in the world. If Li Xian is lucky, he gets a father like Li Zhi, but if he is unlucky, he gets a mother like Empress Wu.Empress Wu is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If this one is really hard-hearted, there is nothing she can't give up.As a prince, facing an elder with a strong desire for power, what you need to do is to hide your strength and bide your time, or even pretend to be stupid. You only need to arm yourself with "filial piety", because filial piety is always right in all dynasties, especially, As a prince, as long as he is filial, he can be said to be loyal and filial. With such qualities, he is a powerful amulet.For example, Li Zhi himself relied on this superior position, but when it was his son's turn, he couldn't even copy his homework.

However, Li Xian didn't see through this at all. Under the instigation of courtiers, he subconsciously regarded Empress Wu as his enemy.Who is Empress Wu, can she bear this?

Winter Solstice muttered: "Aye, let's go back to Quanzhou, the people here are not fun at all!" Winter Solstice has long been used to life in Minyue. Neither suits him.In Li Yue's territory, even if Dongzhi is too lazy to move around, most of the time, he can pass through without hindrance, but in Luoyang, it always makes him feel a bit dull, and other people's words are always vague, implying deep meaning , and some people always look at him with a considerate look, which makes him very uncomfortable.

Although Dongzhi has learned a lot now, he is still a child, so he can only be dissatisfied with many things, but there is nothing he can do, so he can only hope to go back soon, he really doesn't like it Confront those nasty people.

Seeing Dongzhi's angry look, Li Yue couldn't help but smile again. Yang Yao didn't follow her this time. She just gave birth to another child. Even if she's confinement, it's not suitable for her to just run out like this. Therefore, Yang Yao stayed in Quanzhou to preside over the overall situation.

Li Yue also wanted to go back. He really didn't want to get involved in the political struggle between Empress Wu and Li Xian. In fact, it was not only Li Yue who saw this, but also others.

Princess Taiping is not so silly and sweet now. Although she has reached the age of spring, she still hopes to do something more.But that's all, she is a bit ambitious and doesn't have much desire for power. In addition, as the youngest sister, she has been spoiled by her elder brother since she was a child, so she naturally has deep feelings for her elder brother. Therefore, After realizing that Li Xian would have a conflict with Empress Wu, she was ready to find someone to help her out.

In fact, there are very few people who can really talk to Princess Taiping, like Li Xian and Li Dan, the fear of Empress Wu is deep in the bones, counting on them, probably will only let Li Xian endure it, of course, this is actually a good idea, but Li Xian Not necessarily agree.

Princess Taiping didn't have the temperament to swallow her anger. After thinking about it, she ran over to look for Mingzhu.

Mingzhu was stunned when she heard Princess Taiping's words. I, Aye, don't even want to get involved in your family's housework, but you actually want to involve me in it. You are still a good sister!However, seeing Princess Taiping's earnest appearance, she could only rephrase some of the words she heard from Li Yue and tell Princess Taiping: "The prince is a minister on the one hand, and a son on the other hand. A minister should be loyal, and a son of man should show filial piety, so the prince only needs to be filial to the two saints, and there is no need for other things!"

Seeing Mingzhu's words, Princess Taiping naturally understood that this was probably Li Yue's thoughts. She pondered for a while, nodded, and said, "It seems to be true. I'm going to the East Palace!" up!

Mingzhu went back and told Li Yue about it, and Li Yue sighed: "Luoyang can't stay here anymore, I'll write a letter to ask to return to the fief!"

In Ziwei Palace, Empress Wu had been quietly listening to the replies of the people below. Then, she turned her head to look at a girl beside her, and asked, "Wan'er, what do you think?"

This girl is Shangguan Wan'er. Her father and grandparents died at the hands of Empress Wu. She was originally a rich lady, but she fell into the Ye court as a slave when she was young. However, even in Ye court, her mother Zheng did not relax her treatment of her. education.Shangguan's family was originally a family of poems and books, and the Zheng family was also a famous lady. Therefore, Shangguan Wan'er quickly stood out in Yeting, was favored by others, and was recommended to Empress Wu. Became a female official by her side, and even gave her the status of a talented person in order to get her out of the status of a servant girl. That is to say, Shangguan Wan'er is Li Zhi's woman in name.

However, Li Zhi himself didn't know that he still had such a talent. After all, Shangguan Wan'er is only sixteen or seventeen years old now, and in Li Zhi's eyes, she is still too immature.

Although she had a feud with Empress Wu, Shangguan Wan'er was very grateful for Empress Wu's appreciation and promotion of her.Living in Ye Ting since she was a child, she also yearns for power despite being bullied a lot, and only Empress Wu can give her this. Therefore, she worships Empress Wu very much, and has followed Empress Wu for several years. insightful.

Hearing Empress Wu's question at this moment, Shangguan Wan'er immediately replied: "The princess has a deep affection for His Royal Highness' brothers and sisters, and Princess Mingzhu Bingxue is smart. I only hope that His Royal Highness can wake up!"

Empress Wu is a bit regretful at the moment, why can't Li Xian be as conscious of current affairs as Li Yue?The status of the prince sounds like the crown prince of a country, with one person under ten thousand, but in fact, there is no one who cannot be replaced.Empress Wu was convinced of this. Li Xian had been indecisive before, even a little timid at times, but after becoming the crown prince, his courage grew stronger, which made Empress Wu quite unhappy. When Xian wants to leave the feudal clan, he will be sealed off to avoid embarrassing himself.

It's a pity that Li Xian has just taken the position of prince, and it's not good for Empress Wu to use Li Xian at this time. You have to really grasp Li Xian's shortcomings. After pondering for a while, Empress Wu said: " Now that Taiping has gone to the Crown Prince's place, I'm afraid he will have dinner in the East Palace, Wan'er, you can deliver some dishes to them on behalf of the Palace!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er bowed her knees to accept the order, and then withdrew.
