People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 1422 King Peng and King Yong participated in state affairs

With an erratic figure, a simple face, and cold eyes, wearing a twelve-piece crown and a nine-dragon moon-colored Taoist robe, the Taiyin Emperor, whose appearance is indistinguishable, floated from the corner of the hall to the center of the hall.

He floated directly to the alchemy furnace with an indifferent expression.

In the alchemy furnace, three jade-colored elixirs were constantly circling in the furnace, with faint lines of elixirs on them.

There is a vague, special smell.

Emperor Taiyin turned to look at Zhong Daoren, who had been completely stunned, with a trace of sarcasm on his lips.

He even makes elixirs, but he doesn’t even know what the elixir energy tastes like.

He then looked at Xia'er, and the bloody mouth on Xia'er's fingertips had completely disappeared.

Emperor Taiyin looked again at the three rotating Zhonglu Yanming Pills in the pill cauldron.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

This so-called method of borrowing luck is actually borrowing the hard work of Xia'er's body.

Although it doesn't seem to have anything to do with luck,...it's hard to say.

There are so many things that are connected to my heart. If it is really connected to my luck, it will be difficult to deal with it.

It can only be said that this Zhong Daoren still has some tricks.

But after all this, it's hard to say how much harm this alchemy will do to Xia'er.

This man may not be able to die for the time being, and based on what Li Zhi said before, it seems that he has no intention of killing him.

Emperor Taiyin glanced at the imperial edict at Xia'er's feet. He heard correctly just now. Zhong Daoren did call Xia'er Princess Fuchang.

Zhong Daoren did not open the imperial edict to read it, but he already knew its contents.

This shows that he had communicated with the emperor about these things before.

Emperor Taiyin frowned slightly. Could it be that the matter here is related to the position of the princess?
Turning around, gathering his thoughts, the Taiyin Emperor raised his hand outwards, and countless small and shimmering particles fell into the alchemy cauldron.

It merged with the three elixirs that were constantly rotating, and finally penetrated completely.

These fine powders were ground bit by bit by the Taiyin Emperor during this period, using the grassland here in Zhongdaoren.

Zhong Daoren didn't notice at all.

The essence of these things is actually the same effect as Zhonglu Yanming Pill, but they are more powerful and more concealed than Zhonglv Yanming Pill.

This also means that no matter who takes these three pills in the future, they will be controlled by the methods involved.

Even at a critical moment, the person who will be hurt can be the emperor or someone else...

It was not necessarily Li Zhi who took the medicine, it could also be Empress Wu.

Although he had gained a certain understanding of Empress Wu's power over the years, outside his gaze, Empress Wu still had a huge power that had not been revealed.

He had no intention of waiting until Empress Wu was old and unable to move before killing her. If he wanted to do it, he had to do it before Empress Wu was fully mature.

In that case, it would not be so easy to kill Empress Wu.

Especially the guy standing outside.

Emperor Taiyin raised his head and looked in the direction of the door curtain, as if he wanted to see what was happening outside the door curtain.

Li Zhi is there.

He knew he was there, and there was a trace of hatred on his cold face.

Xia'er's injuries are unknown now. Although she is not dead, she will inevitably have some trouble in the future.

He has no intention of going out, because there are many good people outside, and even the Taiyin Emperor will find it difficult to escape once he is surrounded by those people.

The key is that once he is exposed, it will be difficult for him to act freely in the future.

But it's okay now, because of the alchemy relationship, once the palace door is closed, people outside can't inquire about the news inside.

If he doesn't come in, he won't be found.

Emperor Taiyin had a hint of sarcasm on his face, turned around, walked to Zhong Daoren's side, and then walked directly over.

On the table at the back, there is a wooden box made of locust wood. The box is opened, and inside is a blue wide bottle.

The Taiyin Emperor waved his hand slightly, and in the next moment, more tiny shimmering particles had landed on the inside of the locust wood box and were directly embedded on it.

The next moment, the dim light inside had completely disappeared.

This is his method, layer after layer, never too much.

……

Emperor Taiyin turned around and floated in front of Xia'er in an instant. He gently pressed his right hand on her neck. In an instant, his face darkened.

But then, he relaxed a little.

Xia'er's body was indeed somewhat damaged, but nothing serious.

Emperor Taiyin's eyes fell on the imperial edict at his feet.

With a slight wave of his hand, the golden rope binding the imperial edict was opened in an instant.

The densely written imperial edict suddenly appeared in front of the Taiyin Emperor.

"In the second year of Yonglong's reign, on the day of Renwu, in the eleventh month of Xinhai, on the third day of the first lunar month, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

In the thirty-three years since I practiced Zuo, I have suffered from many illnesses.

Today, our great-great-great-grandson, Prince Peng, is the daughter of Peng Wangxuan, Princess Fuchang Princess Jinxia, ​​with excellent qualifications, long martial arts skills, and the ambition of Princess Pingyangzhao.

This is the book of Binggui blessings, and I tell all the ancestors that I would like to use my younger brother's daughter to take my orders.

What is the unknown world?
The emperor of the Li family, Ku, accumulates virtues in accordance with the times, is orthodox, manages people's hearts, and prolongs his life!
After Hou Ji worked hard at farming, Emperor Yao recruited him and gave him the surname Li. Farming flourished, and the Tang industry followed.

Today, Jinxia, ​​the princess of Fuchang County, is raised as the emperor's third daughter, Princess Fuchang; her successor is Peng Wangxuan, King Yong of Jin Dynasty, with a settlement of 10,000 households, and participates in state affairs.

He Wei Yin sacrificed, and the ceremony was held in Jitian.

Admire this. "

……

Looking at the contents of the imperial edict, Emperor Taiyin was a little distracted.

Xia'er was adopted as an adopted daughter by the emperor and became Princess Fuchang.

Li Xuan succeeded King Peng and was promoted to King Yong.

In the history of the Tang Dynasty, who was King Yong, Li Hui, Li Sujie, and Li Xian?

Only Li Xian went one step further and became the crown prince, while the others eventually turned into rotten mud.

In order for the emperor to adopt Xia'er as a princess, he naturally had to appease Li Xuan, otherwise the clan would not be able to explain it to him.

Therefore, the Emperor Jin granted Li Xuan the title of King Yong.

The king of the county was promoted to the prince, and Li Xuan was not the son of the emperor. This was somewhat absurd. A hint of amusement flashed across Emperor Taiyin's eyes, and then he calmed down.

The king of Liang is a common man.

With Wu Sansi in front of him, this ridiculous imperial edict was nothing.

……

King Yong is a prince, and Li Xuan is the grandson of Emperor Gaozu, which means that if something happens, Li Xuan will be the only successor to Li Xian, Li Dan and their sons, and Li Zhi's other sons in the order of succession to the emperor's throne. , and other sons later.

Compared with Emperor Taizong's other heirs and their descendants, Li Xuan's succession order is earlier.

As for the other descendants of Emperor Gaozu, don’t forget that Prince Peng Li Yuanze was also the son of Emperor Gaozu.

Li Xuan's inheritance rights are further ahead.

In particular, Li Xuan also has the right to participate in state affairs.

Participating in state affairs, participating in government affairs and participating in political affairs actually mean the same thing.

The first person to participate in state affairs was King Qin Li Shimin.

According to the system of the Tang Dynasty, clan members were not allowed to serve as prime ministers.

Therefore, the upper limit of the royal family is generally based on the Shangshu.

Clan members after the Five Dynasties could be prime ministers, and Clan members from the Five Dynasties and above could be ministers, but at most they were no more than the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Works.

Of course, this is the rule in recent years, and it was different when the country was founded.

Li Shentong, the king of Huainan County, served as the left and right servant of Xingtai Shangshu. Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, served as the left and right servant of Xingtai Shangshu. .

This edict is tantamount to making Li Xuan the prime minister.

Although such a thing looks extremely ridiculous, it is actually written in the emperor's handwriting and printed on the cover. It looks ridiculous, but everything is within the rules.

Xia'er was adopted as an adopted daughter by the emperor and became Princess Fuchang.

Li Xuan was promoted from a county king to a prince, and he also participated in state affairs.

Although this edict will inevitably be opposed by countless people once it is made public, it has precedents in the history of this dynasty, which means that it is legal.

But now is not the time when the country was founded. The power of the clan has been restricted layer by layer from the Taizong Dynasty to the present. The ceiling is only the Minister of Rites of the former Longxi County Prince Li Boyi.

If the emperor had just died, there would naturally be opposition to such a posthumous edict, but if Empress Wu came to court, the appearance of such a thing would be a great rallying point for Li Xuan.

Especially after Wu Sansi is crowned king, this imperial edict will push Li Xuan to an incredible place.

The most important thing is that the emperor took him out today and used it as a good luck thing.

This means that this thing is effective.

In the current Tang Dynasty, it is effective.

This also means that there is still such a thing as a record within the palace.

Emperor Taiyin's expression turned cold. He couldn't get the things in the palace, because there was no doubt that those things might be in Empress Wu's hands now.

As long as Li Zhi returns to the palace safely with the elixir, the emperor will directly destroy the palace record.

Even if Li Xuan could get it in advance, once it was discovered that it was not in the palace, the Emperor and Empress Wu would immediately go crazy and search for it all over the world.

And the first target of their suspicion will undoubtedly be Li Xuan.

So he could only watch them destroy that thing.

unless……

Emperor Taiyin's eyes fell on the edict in his hand.

Unless he can make a new copy of such an edict, then find a way to send him to the palace, and then hide it in a place where no one will find it in the treasury.

Take it out when needed in the future.

It is much easier to deliver things from the outside to the inside than to take things from the inside to the outside.

And when it came time to take it out again, the power he could display was absolutely shocking.

Emperor Taiyin looked at the edict in his hand and lightly scratched the place where the edicts overlapped.

The next moment, the paper on top had been scratched off, leaving only a piece of yellow silk underneath.

The yellow silk was rolled up again, tied with gold rope, and placed at Xia'er's feet again.

After doing all this, Emperor Taiyin gently stepped back with the paper in his hand and exited the hall directly.

……

A bit of powder fell on the tip of Zhong Daoren's nose. Zhong Daoren suddenly shuddered and then woke up completely.

Subconsciously, he had jumped in front of the cauldron and looked directly at the elixir in the cauldron.

I saw three golden elixirs slowly taking shape, and finally stopped completely.

Seeing this scene, Zhong Daoren's face was suddenly filled with an uncontrollable smile.

Without any hesitation, Zhong Daoren immediately rushed to the table on one side, and then quickly took out the porcelain bottle from the box.

All three pills were put into a porcelain bottle.

Cap the cork, seal the seal, and finally put the porcelain bottle into the box.

After completing this step, Zhong Daocairen felt completely relieved.

Zhong Daoren couldn't help laughing silently again. With this bottle of medicine, he could get everything he wanted.

Suddenly, Zhong Daoren's expression froze.

He looked around. The emperor had just made it very clear that he wanted him to enter the palace.

Only when he is in the palace will the emperor feel relieved.

So everything here is going to be destroyed.

Zhong Daoren fell silent and looked around, seeing everything he was familiar with after staying there for several years.

But the emperor cannot let the secrets here be exposed to others, so destroying this place becomes inevitable.

Glancing at Xia'er, who was still unconscious, and looking at the imperial edict at her feet, Zhong Daoren walked over, picked up the edict, weighed it, walked under the alchemy cauldron with an indifferent expression, and then threw it directly in, watching it completely of turned into ashes.

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Daoren walked to the door of the main hall and opened the thick curtain. Behind the curtain was a stone door that had been sealed for some time.

Zhong Daoren tidied up his clothes a little, then tapped the mechanism under his feet, and the stone door rose in the next moment.

Li Zhi stood by the side of the lake and coughed twice. When he heard the stone door opening, he turned around and saw Taoist Zhong in a purple robe.

Zhong Daoren bowed deeply to Li Zhi and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, God has given you blessings."

Li Zhi's eyes widened in disbelief. The life-extending pill he had dreamed of day and night had just come true.
