What kind of bad intentions can the little prince have?

Once the emperor and the courtiers, Princess Gaoyang is no longer the arrogant princess who thought that the whole world revolved around her. Over the years, Fang Yiai has only been named as a consort and captain, and has not really been in the court. What kind of job do you have.There are three brothers in the Fang family, and Fang Yizhi has been away all these years because of the events of the year, and it is very easy to return to Beijing, and he is also very low-key.On the contrary, Fang Yi came from behind, and is now considered a dignitary in the court.Being on the outside has its advantages. Princess Gao Yang has seen a lot of Li Zhi and Empress Wu's ability to turn their hands into clouds and rain. However, Princess Gao Yang is a little uncertain about the next emperor.

That's all for Li Hong, this is really kind, Li Xian, it is impossible to come back now, he was sent to Tubo urgently before, for this reason, Pei Xingjian was made the Duke of the state because of his old bones, so he can't Don't go to Tubo again, help Li Xian stabilize the situation in Tubo, lest those Tubo nobles jump over the wall in a hurry and kill Li Xian directly.

Princess Gao Yang was very familiar with Li Hong and Li Xian, but no one expected that the throne would fall on the humble Li Xian in the end.Li Xian has never shown much talent before, and everyone can't figure out his temperament. He is not a prince who was canonized early, so naturally he does not have a team that really belongs to him. That is to say, for Li Xian, future officials are not worthy. What from the power of the dragon.That's all, no matter how good Li Xian is, it is impossible for him to appoint his wives for everything, and there is still a need for someone to do things in the court.But the problem is, there is still a Empress Wu.

Princess Gao Yang is also a woman herself, but now she can understand some of Empress Wu's feelings. Empress Wu may have a generous heart in some matters, but she will never believe that in this world, men are stronger than women , or in other words, under the beautiful appearance of Empress Wu, there is a strong heart hidden. In this patriarchal society, Empress Wu has courage and courage, which is much stronger than most men. Therefore, when Li Zhi drives Beng, after the new emperor ascends the throne, she will never let her own son just use the name of an emperor to take away the power so casually.

At this time, no one would have thought that Empress Wu would actually become a well-deserved empress. If everyone only became Empress Wu, she would become the same as the Queen Mother Xuan or even Queen Lu. Ji still held the real power, and that Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty never really took charge of the government from the moment he ascended the throne to the day he passed away.For example, in the Han Dynasty, the empress dowagers who were in power really followed each other. Although Empress Wu did not appoint foreign relatives like those queen dowagers in the Han Dynasty, it was only because Empress Wu was not close to her natal family, but After so many years, Empress Wu has also cultivated a group of party members who are loyal to her. These people are from humble backgrounds and have a shallow foundation. If they can't hug Empress Wu's thigh, they will easily lose their current authority.

In short, Princess Gao Yang is not optimistic about Li Xian's ability to take charge of the government. After all, Li Xian had no political experience at all before this. Later, he said that it was definitely a raw melon egg, and Empress Wu could play with Li Xian casually.However, in the eyes of most people, not all queen mothers can survive their sons like Queen Lu.Therefore, Li Xian will definitely gradually gain power, and Empress Lu will naturally have to retreat to the second line when the time comes.

This brings up a new problem, for example, for a person like Princess Gao Yang who has a certain right to choose, she has to consider, after Li Xian ascended the throne, which one should she lean towards? Empress Wu, or Li Xian with a brighter future?The Fang family is no different than other families. The Qinghe Fang family is said to be an aristocratic family, but it didn’t take long to start a family. Fang Xuanling can be regarded as the one with the highest achievements in so many generations of the Fang family. He was in the Sui Dynasty. He excelled in the imperial examinations, and because of this, he was able to marry Lu's daughter as his wife.However, Fang Xuanling was not the direct branch of the head of the Fang family. After Fang Xuanling passed away, Fang Yizhi and his three brothers had little influence on the Fang clan. Moreover, the number of Fang clan members was not too large. , it is impossible to disperse one's own power and go to the frontier to expand like the Yang family and other big and leafy families.Back then, the Fang family's ability to occupy a considerable portion of the interests in Lingnan and Qiongzhou had already made many people jealous. If they still wanted to gain a foothold in Andong and Anxi, it would inevitably arouse the hostility of many people.

In fact, the focus of the Fang family is still in Guanzhong. On Qinghe, they cannot compete with the Cui family. Thanks to his contribution, he now has the title of a county duke, which is quite remarkable. Even though Datang’s title is not as valuable as it was before because it was not sealed, but after the founding of the country, it is possible to be a duke. It's not easy either.

Under such circumstances, the Fang family naturally had to place their bets more cautiously. Princess Gao Yang thought that Li Yue had never suffered any losses in this kind of matter, so she simply discussed with Fang Yiai and prepared He ran over to ask Li Yue, what should he do in the end!

Hearing Princess Gao Yang's direct question, Li Yue really wanted to bang her head on the desk. How should I say this kind of thing?If it was someone else, and someone who was closer, Li Yue would definitely say that you just follow Empress Wu honestly, that kid Li Xian can't play with Empress Wu.But Princess Gaoyang is the princess of the Li family, and Empress Wu is the one who wants to change the dynasty or seek to usurp the throne. As long as she has a little ambition, she can't give up her position and stand on Empress Wu's side.

However, if Princess Gao Yang and the Fang family were to follow Li Xian, it would only be more troublesome.Empress Wu never showed mercy when dealing with her political opponents.It can be said that for Empress Wu, anyone who is unwilling to obey herself is almost an enemy!So what if Princess Gaoyang is the princess of the Li family.When Empress Wu was in power, although the clan of the Li family could not be completely killed, there were not many left, including his own son!

Therefore, Li Yue had no choice but to say vaguely: "The Empress Dowager is a few years older than the Sage Emperor, but she has always been light and healthy and energetic. In my opinion, the Empress Dowager has a long time to listen to the government behind the curtain!"

Princess Gao Yang immediately understood what Li Yue meant, unless they were prepared to stay dormant for many years to come, so, at least for the next few years, it would be more reliable for them to stand on Empress Wu's side.

Fang Yiai put a piece of jujube cake into his mouth, chewed it a few times before swallowing it, and then said hesitantly: "That's what I said, but Tianhou Empress is now in her sixtieth year, so she can still have How much energy? Li Xian, although he looks cowardly, it seems that the Holy Emperor back then was also..."

There are a lot of royal people pretending to be pigs and eating tigers. Wasn't Li Zhi regarded as benevolent and cowardly by Li Shimin back then?He even felt that Li Zhi could not afford the position of the crown prince.As a result, after Li Zhi came to power, within a few years, where did those courtiers who dared to chat with Li Zhi go?Even my own uncle also said that he should be exiled, and that he should be sentenced to death!Even if they were their own children, they didn't get much love from Li Zhi!

After all, Li Xian is Li Zhi's son, maybe this one has the same thoughts, he has no choice but to take down the lower courtiers for a while, just like when Li Zhi first came to the throne, almost everything was decided by the eldest grandson Wuji, then Li Zhi at that time was completely a stamped mascot.Li Xian turned his head and kept a small book in his heart, and waited until he was in charge to settle accounts later in the autumn, then they would be tricked!

This is what Princess Gao Yang was worried about. If Li Xian is really a coward and has no idea, that's all. I'm afraid he's just pretending, and when he gets angry again later, he'll be caught off guard.

Seeing this, Li Yue said angrily: "There is no such thing as a perfect way in this world. If you don't want to rely on anyone, but just want to be a neutral faction, you have to have this capital! After so many years, the Fang family really How much authority do you have? I am afraid that if you say a word from above, even if you may not be labeled as a prototype, you will be seriously injured! Standing in line first can at least be safe for a while, but if you don’t stand in line, then maybe what you are facing is the common cause of both sides. hit!"

Hearing this, Fang Yiai became a little depressed, he sighed, and said, "Oh, is it so troublesome?"

Li Yue smiled and said, "It's fine for others, but your family can actually have other choices!"

Princess Gao Yang glanced at Li Yue suspiciously: "Fifteen Lang, I think you are thinking of some bad idea!"

Li Yue spread her hands and said, "What kind of bad idea is this? In fact, these things are what every family likes to do, and that is to place long bets! Everyone knows that the three brothers of the Fang family have no relationship with Liang Guogong." Mu, so, it's only natural for your two families to vote for two sides. When the time comes, no matter which side wins, just pull the other side! This is also a way to preserve the inheritance of your Fang family, so that the whole family will not be ruined. In the same boat, when the water leaks, no one can escape!"

Fang Yiai is no longer what it used to be. A few years ago, when Fang Yiai heard Fang Yizhi's name, although she would not immediately jump up to express that she was at odds with the other party, she would definitely show that she was different from each other. However, after so many years, the edges and corners of the past have been polished almost. As far as Fang Yiai is concerned, although there was something wrong with the couple back then, but after so many years, the couple has actually been secretly There has always been compensation.What's more, Youdao is far fragrant and near stinky. Since they no longer live together, the relationship between the three brothers is actually much more intimate than before.In the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between Fang Yizhi and Fang Yiai's brothers is very awkward, but to Fang Yiai, this is actually acting.Now that Li Yue said so, Fang Yiai felt a little embarrassed on the one hand, and a little stunned on the other.

Princess Gao Yang is not the person who dared to do anything for the title in the past, she nodded thoughtfully now, and then said: "Since there are three brothers, who should the third child rely on?"

Fang Yiai said with some doubts: "Shouldn't the third brother always agree with us?"

Princess Gaoyang glared at Fang Yiai angrily, and then said: "How can such a thing happen, even though they are brothers, they will all be ministers of the Ministry of Industry in the end, why would they be a servant boy with you, a nameless county magistrate?" ! Therefore, the third brother should also use his own ideas!"

Fang Yiai just felt that her brain was not enough, besides Empress Wu and Li Xian, where could there be a third party?However, seeing that Princess Gao Yang and Li Yue didn't intend to speak, Fang Yi'ai immediately shut his mouth. At worst, let Fang Yi be a pure minister and let no one care about it.Anyway, for a professional like him who can do practical things, even if he doesn't do it in the center, and he is released later, it is impossible to dismiss his official position casually.

Li Yue sent Fang Yiai and his wife away, but soon, more and more posts flew over like snowflakes.There are those who are too familiar, some who inquire about the news of the palace, and some who inquire about the situation in Ryukyu... In short, after Li Yue arrived in Luoyang, he didn't have much leisure time!

But Li Zhi couldn't last long. After summoning Princess Taiping, his wife and two grandchildren, he fell into a coma again. Not long after, Li Yue was called into the palace again, but Li Zhi woke up. And according to the imperial doctor, Li Zhi is now returning to the light, and the time of being awake for a while has passed, and he will never wake up again if he falls asleep again!

Li Zhi seemed to be in good spirits at the moment. He directly summoned all the clansmen in Chang'an, as well as several important ministers in the court, and then recalled his achievements over the years, saying that he had done so many years as the emperor. After coming down, he finally didn't lose the face of his father and grandfather, and opened a prosperous era for Datang, so he is now contented.

Then, when someone came out and asked who the new king was, Li Zhi hesitated again, and finally made up his mind. He pointed to Li Xian and said, "The seventh prince is the queen's descendant. For the elder, it must be him!"

Li Zhi's oral edict was embellished with flowers and flowers, and then recorded, and then the treasure of the emperor was taken and sealed, and the matter was settled like this.

After Li Zhi appointed Li Xian as the next emperor, his whole body immediately became obviously depressed, he looked around, finally sighed softly, and said: "Everyone, step down, the Queen of Heaven will stay here! "

Empress Wu was taken aback. In fact, the communication between Li Zhi and Empress Wu had become very rare these days after Li Zhi fell ill. Zhi was often lethargic. She really didn't have that much time to spend with Li Zhi. Now that Li Zhi let herself stay, Empress Wu suddenly felt a little bit moved.

Regarding Li Zhi, Empress Wu's mood is very complicated. If it is said that the samurai gave Empress Wu her first life, then Li Zhi almost gave Empress Wu a second life, which is still the most important political life in Empress Wu's view.If it weren't for Li Zhi's favoritism and decentralization, Empress Wu would never have the power she has today.A normal empress is the mother of the country in name, and in fact, what she can manage is the one-third of an acre of land in the harem. As for the internal and external wives, they are in charge of Empress Wu in name, and in fact they have to get the emperor's permission to do anything they want.It can be said that without Li Zhi, Empress Wu would at most be a pale name in official and unofficial history, or even a surname, but now, Empress Wu has personally participated in almost all major events in the Tang Dynasty over the years, and has left a mark in the history books. A heavy stroke was made.

In short, Empress Wu really loved Li Zhi. In addition, she was also grateful to Li Zhi. However, as a political creature, Empress Wu instinctively regarded Li Zhi as a competitor. Now seeing Li Zhi's weakness and aging, Empress Wu My heart softened even more.

Li Yue and the others obediently left the palace gate and waited in the side hall, but Empress Wu sat next to Li Zhi. When Li Zhi began to recall the past, she couldn't help thinking about it.

As Li Zhi was talking, his voice dropped. Empress Wu slowly lowered her head to look at Li Zhi who was still talking before, but now her eyes were closed. Under her nose, she didn't feel a little breath, and Empress Wu froze immediately, thinking of the sweetness that Li Zhi had said before, even if her heart was as cold as Empress Wu, she couldn't help but shed tears.

The imperial doctor hurriedly ran out from the corner, and after a lot of fuss, he said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, His Majesty the Dragon Yu has returned to heaven!"

All the people who had been waiting in the side hall stood up and bowed at the same time. With the ringing of the bell, everyone in the side hall, no matter if they were sincere or fake, soon cried into a ball. The cry was loud and the tears were free. flow out.

While forcing herself to shed tears, Li Yue thought to herself, an era has passed, and what awaits her next is all kinds of turmoil!
