Sword guarding Chang'an

Chapter 254 Long live the motherland

Changan.

At this moment, Chang'an can be described as after the storm.

Just a pity.

It's a pity that there is no rainbow after the storm, which means that a bigger storm is coming.

The eldest grandson Wuyou was old and frail, if it wasn't for the lingering attachment to Chang'an and her children in her heart, this "Empress Dowager" would have been ready to follow the former king long ago.

Li Jianbai and Li Chunfeng, sitting in Chang'an, stayed behind the academy.

Now the young man wearing a bamboo hat and covered in pitch black is no longer a person of the present age. Everyone in the world thinks that the new king Li Jianbai died in battle in the western border, with no bones left.

And a country cannot be left without a master for a day, and finally negotiated, under the impetus of Changsun Wuyou, Li Jianbai, and Li Chunfeng.

Finally, let Li Jianzhi ascend the throne of the new emperor.

Although the imperial court announced that Li Jianbai died in battle in the Buddhist kingdom of Western Xinjiang, the real high-level officials still knew that Li Jianbai was still alive.

Even though many people knew that Li Jianbai was still alive, Li Jianbai still decided to take this opportunity to step down from his position.

First, I don't belong here, and anyone else who sits on the throne of emperor will be better than myself.

Second, Li Jianbai's life experience is already known to almost everyone.

In particular, Confucianism used literature to disrupt the law. Li Jiangong controlled those corrupt Confucians and spread those rumors.

Many civil and military officials began to disagree with Li Jianbai's status as emperor.

For example, during the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Li Jianbai killed his eldest grandson Wuji, and was temporarily ordered to become the king of the Tang Kingdom and take charge of the Yuxi Seal of the Tang Kingdom.

Second, the imperial conquest was conducted in person, without any discussion with any of the officials in the DPRK and China, which has already aroused criticism from the DPRK and China.

Thirdly, Li Jianbai is not of Li's blood, and I know that there are still many people who think that Li Jianbai is the one who destroyed the world.

and so.

Li Jianbai then retreated.

But even if he retreated at this point, Li Jianbai was still able to grasp a lot of power and use this as a force to push Li Jianzhi to the top.

For example, Zhao Jin, who has already entered the Xiantian, Wang Meng, the commander of the imperial army, the [-] Golden Army, and the [-] Shadow Secret Guards, all swore their allegiance to Li Jianbai to the death.

Li Jianbai transferred these rights to Li Jianzhi, making his wings sharp, hoping to make him a heroic king of a generation.

The empress dowager's eldest grandson, Wuyou, now has the highest position in the court, the oldest seniority, and the most honorable status.

With the support of the eldest grandson Wuyou, Li Jianzhi became the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty, with much less resistance.

There is no longer any objection.

As for the other princes, Li Jiantai, Li Jiangong, Li Jianhong... the other princes could no longer compete for the heir apparent.

soon.

For the sake of stability and Chang'an, in just a few days, Li Jianzhi was designated as the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

"This time the Tang Kingdom is stable, and I can rest in peace with my eyes closed." Changsun Wuyou watched the matter go by bit by bit.

Although I and Li Jianbai supported him in many ways, and Li Jianzhi was strong enough now, and he had a "virtuous wife", the enthronement went smoothly.

But this is a national event after all, and there are too many cumbersome and etiquette.

However, Changsun Wuyou didn't show a trace of impatience, because this was the last thing she would do for Tang.

a few days later.

In Fengyi Palace.

The eldest grandson Wuyou asked Ah Hong to invite all the princes and princesses.

Li Jianbai was also present, but Li Jianbai was in an invisible state, standing on the side of the beam.

Not only Li Jianbai, but also Li Jiantai who was under house arrest, and even Li Yuqiong from Qinglong Temple was forcibly brought by Ah Hong.

At this moment.

Even if the young prince Li Jianhong, who has not yet grown up and has no troubles, and the youngest princess, who is seven years old, feel that Fengyi Hall is very heavy today.

Little prince, little princess, they haven't grown up yet, haven't had troubles, and haven't thought too much, but they also feel that today is unusual.

And the grown-up Li Jiantai, Li Jianzhi, Li Jianbai, Li Yuqiong... and the others looked at their mother and grandson Wuyou with red eyes.

Because they knew that this was very likely to be the last time they saw their elder grandson Wuyou.

It is very likely that the brothers and sisters will be together for the last time this time.

Between them, there are calculations, fights, life and death struggles, guilt, and too many things that cannot be explained clearly.

But today, they are serious about being a child. Some kneel at the feet of the eldest grandson, some support the eldest grandson, some bow with red eyes, and even the little prince and princess are indignant and crying at a loss.

Li Jianbai, in black clothes and black hat, stood quietly by the side.

"Everyone is here." The eldest grandson Wuyou looked at these people with nostalgia, concern, and mother's reluctance.

"Jianzhi, you will be the king from now on, and you must serve the country and the people."

"Yes, my son respectfully obeys his mother's instruction."

"Ah."

As he spoke, he pulled Li Jianzhi closer, and said in a low voice, "I have no other request. You will marry that Wu Meiniang three years after my death."

"Yes." Li Jianzhi nodded seriously.

"it is good."

After Changsun Wuyou finished speaking, he pushed Li Jianzhi away and walked slowly to Li Jiantai's side.

"Second brother, you... you, oh... after today, you can go to the fiefdom, and you will not be able to enter Chang'an in this life, otherwise, I will die with regret!"

"Yes." Thai King Li Jiantai, with a sharp flash in his eyes, bowed his hands and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this scene, Li Jianbai shook his head lightly, there is no right or wrong, because she is a mother.

But if Li Jianbai is allowed to do it, after today, Li Jiantai must die!
Li Jianbai hated him, if it wasn't for him, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven would not have undergone such a tragic change.

His father, Li Kaiming, and his elders, grandson Wuji, would not die like that in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens, nor would they be driven away to become kings of the Tang Dynasty.

"Qiong'er." The eldest grandson Wuyou looked at his beloved daughter Ninth Princess Li Yuqiong.

"Mother's queen." Now Li Yuqiong has entered the temple, shaved her hair and turned into a nun, with no expression on her face, no sadness or joy.

"You want, okay, okay." Changsun Wuyou didn't know what to say, and felt a slight pain in his heart. She was once the most magnificent nine princesses in the Tang Dynasty.

this moment.

Li Yuqiong couldn't control her expression anymore, she rushed forward and got into the arms of the eldest grandson Wuyou: "Queen Mother, I, I am so sorry, I... I was really wrong."

"Mmm...mmmm, mmm." Changsun Wuyou patted Li Yuqiong's back lightly, her mother's love embraced everything like the sea.

Afterwards, the little prince and the little princess hugged the eldest grandson Wuyou's thigh and began to cry.

This moment of the scene is touching.

Those who have not grown up can cry and suffer loudly.

But the grown-up ones cried silently.

Even Sister Hong couldn't help her nose sore and her eyes turning red.

Everyone here can actually leave Changsun Wuyou, but only Ah Hong is the most unable to lose Changsun Wuyou.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Finally, Changsun Wuyou stopped his tears and scolded: "Everyone, go down. After tomorrow, the new king's enthronement ceremony will be held. May Tang be prosperous and strong, and Chang'an be peaceful!"

"May China be strong, and may the motherland live forever."
