Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 715 Change
Once the decision of the crown prince's succession was made, all the important ministers and clan princes left the room where the emperor was.

Surrounded by Prince Li Heng, they went to another room to discuss the succession ceremony in detail.Of course, the emperor will be honored as the Supreme Emperor in the future, and what kind of treatment he should enjoy at that time also needs to be discussed carefully.Even after the current emperor abdicates, how should he arrange the ministers and generals he once used, especially those who are in positions of relatives or favored ministers?Those who are capable can stay in the post, and those who are not very capable can... Cough, although this "people leave the tea" can't be too conspicuous. After all, the saints have not "leaved", but the new dynasty always has new ones. Well, for a new king to succeed to the throne, he also needs someone he can use easily to hold an important position!

Everyone felt sad for the state of the emperor, but at the same time they couldn't stop their hearts from stirring. They were eager to share the power of the new king after he succeeded to the throne.The tone of their speeches towards Prince Li Heng has changed a lot, they have become more cautious and respectful than before, and they no longer regard him as an unstable prince.Prince Li Heng also straightened his waist. When he looked at these important ministers, his eyes lost the caution of the past, and began to be a little critical and measured, trying to figure out who could be used by him.

King Sui fell to the end.He has never been involved in government affairs, and he is not interested in these political topics. It is only because he is the only surviving brother of the saint that he was called into the palace by the prince today.He didn't expect that the emperor's brother, who has always been unabated, would become what he is now. He heard that the evil way caused many people to be harmed. It is countless.He just wanted to lament the impermanence of the world, and he was also thankful that the emperor's brother had saved his life, but he couldn't help being sad when he saw the emperor's unknown appearance.

From now on, Li Ti is the only one left in this world, and he still remembers the years when the brothers were in trouble together.The old man withered, how many years can he, the only survivor, live?

Although the emperor's brother became more and more indifferent to him, there were times when the brothers were close and harmonious.In the future, the owner of the palace will become a nephew, or a nephew with whom he has a mediocre relationship. Is there a day when the Sui Palace will return to prosperity?He really didn't dare to think about it.

Forget it, he is also old, how many years can he worry about his children and grandchildren?The eldest son does not live up to expectations, as long as he can save his life and be a rich and idle person, that's all.As long as the grandchildren are filial and sensible, there is still hope for their family in the future.The eldest grandson seems to be valued by the King of Quang Binh, and the younger grandson was born healthy again, and the future is still bright.

King Sui cheered up a bit, and saw King Guangping leaning over at some point, and said respectfully with a smile, "Uncle, are you tired? My grandson is here to help you."

King Sui hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I dare not bother King Guangping, the old minister just...sees the saint's current appearance, and feels a little uncomfortable."

King Guangping bowed his head and said: "Aye and grandson are also very worried about the saint's condition. The imperial doctors are at a loss, and now they can only take care of it carefully, hoping that God will show mercy and make the saint recover as soon as possible... Are you Brother of the saint, can you please visit the palace from time to time? If you can tell the saint more about childhood, maybe he can wake up the old man..."

It didn't sound like a reliable treatment method, but King Sui still agreed.It's good to do my best for the emperor.He looked at the high spirits of the prince Li Hengna in front of him, which was completely different from that of the past, and he knew in his heart that even if the sage recovered, it was impossible for his son to return the throne.King Guangping invited himself to the palace to accompany the saint. Although he didn't know what the purpose was, but he came to visit more attentively. At least he could know how the emperor's brother was doing during his illness, whether the palace people and internal officials were serving them wholeheartedly, and whether the new king was in good health. Filial piety as before... With him as a witness, the saint will not be neglected.

This was the only thing he, the emperor who was treated coldly by his elder brother, could do for the demented emperor.

Li Lijun watched his grandfather walking towards the clan princes accompanied by King Quang Binh respectfully from the porch, and felt relieved.As long as the King of Sui was not slighted after Xuanzong's abdication, and he could still keep the dignity of the clan prince, other things were not important.King Guangping can handle these things well and won't let her down, so she doesn't have to worry too much about trivial matters in ordinary homes.

She turned to the room where Xuanzong was.Gao Lishi and little Gao Lishi are still waiting by the side.It's just that after the important ministers and clan princes left, there was another group of delicate guests who came to visit.All the eldest princesses, eldest princesses, and princesses all came, crying around Xuanzong.The concubines in the harem can only be regarded as accompanying guests, not inconspicuous, but I don't know why Concubine Yang is not here.

Li Lijun let go of his consciousness, and soon discovered where Concubine Yang was.She was hiding in the corridor outside the house by herself, without even a maid by her side, leaning against the pillars and weeping silently.

Li Lijun quietly walked over and asked softly, "What is the imperial concubine doing here alone?"

Concubine Yang Guifei was startled, and when she turned around, she saw Li Lijun showing her figure, she immediately pressed her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, her frightened and frail expression was pitiful.Her make-up was incomplete, most of the jewelry on her head was gone, only a few golden hairpins remained, and even her favorite large silk gauze peony flower was removed, although it was not to the extent of a plain skirt. , but it is not the same as the Chinese costume an hour ago.

Yang Guifei is not afraid of Li Lijun.She said with tears: "When the saint had an accident, no one else said anything. The princesses came to visit him, but some people accused me of not being able to protect the king... When the saint fell ill, I was not here. What can I do? Besides, my third sister Something happened to my cousin too..."

Princess Guangning also accused her of dressing gorgeously when the saint was seriously ill.Ever since the sage had an accident, she hadn't taken care of her own clothes, so how could she have the time to change into new clothes? !Besides, the saint is still alive. Could it be that she changed into plain clothes and silver hairpins to wear mourning for someone? !Princess Guangning was choked by her words, but she was still very angry. It was Princess Yuzhen who coaxed her out.

But Concubine Yang knew in her heart that even if Princess Yuzhen was still kind to her, the expressions of the other princesses were different.They knew that she had lost the backing of a saint, so they could bully her with confidence.She felt aggrieved, but who could she confide in this grievance?
The sage has become like this, and will never answer her call again.The elder sisters of the natal family are worrying about the illness of the third sister, Mrs. Guo Guo, and they have just brought her home, and they have to invite doctors and famous Taoist priests to come for consultation.I heard that my cousin's wife, Pei Rou, is also ill. My nephews and nieces are busy attending to my cousin's funeral while they are busy taking care of my cousin's illness. How can she bother them?

Besides... Without the support of the saint, who of them can support her?

Although the crown prince was still respectful to her, his intention to get rid of her had already been revealed. If it wasn't for the persuasion of Li Lijun and other immortals, he might have given her a three-zhang white silk long ago.

Who else could she rely on?

Concubine Yang asked Li Lijun with tears in her eyes: "Si Niang, you and I once had a friendship. Can you tell me the truth? Saint... Sanlang, is it true that he won't come back?!"

Li Lijun shook his head: "Most of his three souls and seven souls are gone, and there is only a body left, and it is basically impossible to recover." If there is a real fairy pleading with Empress Houtu, there may be hope.But Xuanzong's return to normal, what benefits can it bring to the world?In order to avoid the reoccurrence of troubled times, everyone would think that Xuanzong would just continue like this, and no one would be troublesome.

She looked at Concubine Yang's unwilling and sad appearance, thought for a while, and said, "Let me tell Concubine Gui a story."

A... tragic story that should have happened years later.
