Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 2 Life and Death Two Heavens (1)

The snow gradually became lighter, but the wind picked up, whimpering and blowing with a bone-chilling chill, even with the barrier of the carriage, Li Xian still felt terribly cold, even though the charcoal basin in the carriage was burning vigorously , but it can't alleviate this kind of chill, because the chill is more coming from the bottom of my heart, unstoppable, unavoidable, under the extreme cold, Li Xian's thin body trembled Like sifting chaff.

The three different lives have three different personalities - the frailty of the young Li Xian, the cautiousness and vicissitudes of the old Li Xian, and the young mayor Li Sheng's outer circle and inner strength. These can be said to be three different souls. Blended together, conflicts and entanglements are inevitable, confusion and chaos become the best portrayal of Li Xian's mood at this time, and the huge gap between time and space makes Li Xian 12 points uncomfortable , Under the intense psychological conflict, Li Xian couldn't tell what was reality and what was dream, and his whole brain was in a mess.

"Your Highness, Your Highness."

Just when Li Xian's thoughts were so entangled that he was about to collapse, several soft calls came in from outside the car curtain, pulling Li Xian back from the brink of madness.

"what."

Li Xian raised his head in a daze, responded indiscriminately, and then suddenly realized that the carriage had stopped at some point. Li Xian twisted his body a few times uneasily, gritted his teeth and raised his hand. , Gently lifted a corner of the car curtain, looked outside, and saw the nervous and uneasy face of the little eunuch Gao Miao.

"Your Highness, you. Ah, Your Highness, the Chengtian Gate is here, Your Highness, look..."

When Gao Miao saw that Li Xian finally showed his face, Gao Miao's heart relaxed at first, but when he saw Li Xian's pale face was frighteningly pale, Gao Miao immediately tensed again, but he didn't dare to ask the truth, but he swallowed hard , reminded me in a low voice.

Arrived?Oh, it's here!Li Xian was stunned, and finally remembered the purpose of his trip, the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything in the end, just nodded silently, bowed and opened the curtain of the car , bent down and leaned out from the carriage, Gao Miao who was waiting at the side saw this, rushed forward, carefully supported Li Xian's arm, and obediently waited for Li Xian to get out of the carriage.

Chengtian Gate is still the same Chengtian Gate, tall and majestic, even if it is covered with heavy snow, it can't conceal its majestic and majestic appearance. No matter who comes here, they will be intimidated by it, but it falls to Li Xian. In the eyes, there is a different meaning, not the impulse to worship, nor the piety like a pilgrimage, but an indescribable taste, which contains one part of familiarity and kindness, two parts of negligence and confusion, but More is fear!
Fear, that's right, it is fear, out-and-out fear, not only because of the current confusion, but also because of the doubts and worries about the future, and the scenes of "past events" frantically flooded into the world again. In his heart, life and death made Li Xian's thin body tremble involuntarily, and his small face instantly turned pale as snow.

"Your Highness, Your Highness."

The young eunuch Gao Miao was only thirteen years old, and entered the palace at the age of seven. He was assigned to the Zhou Palace and was in charge of serving Zhou King Li Xian. Gao Miao is very familiar with Li Xian's temperament. It can be said that Gao Miao can guess Li Xian's thoughts without exception with any small movement or look of Li Xian. Accurate—from early in the morning to now, all of Li Xian's actions were completely beyond Gao Miao's control. Such accidents filled Gao Miao's heart with doubts and worries, but as a companion, Gao Miao always kept his principles Seeing Li Xian staring blankly at the Chengtian Gate, without any intention of leaving to enter the palace, Gao Miao, who was afraid of making a mistake, had no choice but to go forward, Called twice in a low voice.

"Huh? Oh, okay, enter the palace, enter the palace."

Hearing Gao Miao's reminder, Li Xian finally came back from his daze, glanced at Gao Miao blankly, some of them absentmindedly murmured a few times, then raised his foot and walked towards Chengtianmen. Number plate, walked past the Hall of Taichi silently, turned around the Hall of Liangyi, entered the inner court, walked along the palace road to the front of the Hall of Yide, and then suddenly stopped, the action was so fierce that it almost caught you off guard Gao Miao bumped his head into Li Xian's back.

"Your Highness, the Empress is due to give birth today. Your Majesty and His Royal Highness are already here. Look, Your Highness..."

Gao Miao tried his best to stop his feet, swayed his body a few times, and finally managed to maintain his balance. Seeing that Li Xian was stunned again, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, and hurriedly explained.

Labor?Yes, today is the day that little girl Taiping was born, hey, Taiping, Taiping, where did Taiping come from?A flash of light flashed in Li Xian's mind, and he remembered what was about to happen out of the chaos. The corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a bit of a bitter smile, but he didn't say anything, just shook his head slightly, and calmed down. With the clothes on his body, he strode towards the hall.

Yide Hall has been the queen's bedroom since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. Empresses of several generations of the Tang Dynasty have lived here. Wu Meiniang has lived in this hall since the first letter of November in the sixth year of Yonghui (AD [-]). , which lasted for nearly ten years, but because of her taboo of plotting to kill the Queen and Concubine Xiao Shu, Wu Meiniang seldom stayed in Chang'an Taiji Palace, but encouraged Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi to live in Luoyang. I lived in Luoyang for many months, that is to say, it was the time of ancestor worship in the Qingming Festival, and I just returned to Chang'an for a short stay. The reason why I returned to Beijing earlier this time was probably because Wu Meiniang was pregnant, and I was afraid that the journey would be inconvenient, so I returned in June this year. The capital was waiting to give birth. At this time, Empress Wu was about to give birth, and the palace was busy, with countless court ladies and eunuchs coming in and out, which seemed chaotic.

Li Xian walked all the way, there were court ladies and eunuchs bowing down to say hello, but Li Xian was having a lot of thoughts at the moment, so he didn't have the heart to pay any attention to it, and walked into the hall on his own. I saw Gaozong Li Zhi, who was dressed in the robes of the Ming emperor, rubbing his hands and turning around at the junction of the front hall and the back hall, his face was full of anxiety, while the prince Li Hong was sitting on a soft couch, beside him The handsome young man standing proudly above him is none other than Li Xian, king of Lu. Under Li Xian, there is a famous wet nurse holding a three-year-old child in her arms. Inaction Emperor Ruizong Li Dan.

"My son has seen his father."

Although Li Xian was full of thoughts at this time, he didn't dare to reveal anything, let alone lose his manners. When he entered the main hall, he immediately rushed to Gao Zong Li Zhi, bowed to the end, and greeted him loudly.

"Ah, it's Xian'er who's here. Excuse me, excuse me." Gao Zong was circling anxiously on the spot, but when he saw Li Xian arrived, he immediately showed a kind smile on his face, and waved cordially. Li Xian called to his side, looked at Li Xian's pale face, and said with some distress: "Is Xian'er not feeling well? Why is his face so ugly? Tsk, it's freezing cold, so we should keep warm That's right, don't wait until you're really sick to get a doctor, it will be too late."

"Father taught me that the baby is fine, maybe it's because of the cold, it's good to rest."

Looking at his father's amiable face, Li Xian's heart immediately surged with deep affection, his eye circles turned red involuntarily, and he was on the verge of tears. He hurriedly lowered his head to conceal it, and answered calmly. In one sentence, the vibrato in the words revealed the excitement in his heart.

"Cold? That can't be ignored. Come, go, pass a bowl of ginger soup." Li Zhi immediately became a little anxious when he heard that Li Xian had caught the cold. The little eunuch was ordered to go to the imperial dining room to pass on ginger soup without mentioning it.

"My son... my son, thank you, Father, Emperor Long En."

Hearing Li Zhi's gentle words, Li Xian couldn't help but shed tears that he held back, choked with gratitude—even though Li Xian is still unable to locate his identity and status, the father-son relationship with Li Zhi But it is a fact that cannot be changed. Li Xian, who has been a man for several generations, knows that his father is cowardly. He really cannot be regarded as a qualified emperor, nor can he be regarded as a qualified good husband, let alone a qualified good father. But his love for his children is completely from the heart, without any hypocrisy, and this is rare in the treacherous emperor's family, Li Xian couldn't help feeling strange.

"Stupid boy, be too polite to your father. Alas, your mother has been inside for half a day, and there is still no movement. I am really worried in my heart. Alas, I hope everything goes well, that's all, that's all, no Let's talk about this, Xian'er go and wait with your brothers, I'll go in and take a look." Li Zhi gave Li Xian a few words in a babbling manner, still worried about Empress Wu who was about to give birth, and shook his head Sleeve, wanted to walk towards the apse, but just took two steps, but stopped dejectedly, and spun around on the spot anxiously.

A good man, but not a good emperor!Looking at his father's impatience, Li Xian couldn't help thinking of the conclusion of history's conclusion on Gaozong, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart for a while, but this was obviously not the occasion to express his emotions. Xian could only sigh secretly, and shuffled to the side.

"The younger brother has met the prince's elder brother and the sixth elder brother."

I could feel a lot of emotions in my heart, but facing the two elder brothers, Prince Li Hong who was reclining on the soft couch, and King Lu Li Xian who stood proudly, Li Xian didn't dare to show the slightest bit of disrespect. road.

"Seventh brother doesn't have to be like this, let's be normal, it's freezing cold, seventh brother should be more careful, don't get sick, it will be bad."

Prince Li Hong is a very easy-going person. Although he is a prince, he never puts on airs in front of his younger brothers. The only shortcoming is that his body is weak. , as a son, he had to come here to express his concern, so he could only force himself to sit on a soft couch and wait for the news. Seeing Li Xian greet him, he immediately smiled gently, raised his hand, and motioned for Li Xian No need to be polite.

"My brother, thank you for your love, Brother Prince."

Li Xian was very close to Li Hong no matter in the previous life or in this life, seeing Li Hong laughing before saying anything, his heart warmed up, he thanked with a smile, stood up straight, and was about to walk to Li Hong's side.

"Seventh brother, what's wrong with you? You are the last one every time. If you don't change your tired temper, how can you be responsible for big things in the future?"

Li Xian had just stood up straight, and before he could move, Lu Wang Li Xian, who was standing aside, scolded Gai Jiang abruptly, causing Li Xian to choke hard.
