Unofficial History of the Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 77

When Chu Suiliang kowtowed and bled, the emperor suffered from dysentery and could not afford to lie down.The prince was served by others, not far from the left and right. Seeing Wu's family supporting the emperor on the couch, he was extremely enchanting.Not long after, the crown prince got up to go to the toilet, Mrs. Wu knelt down with water in her hands, the crown prince sprinkled it with his hand, and Mrs. Wu then chanted, "Before you get the king's favor, let's soak in the rain and dew first.

"The prince was overjoyed, and knowing his intention, he met Wu's family in Xiaoxuan of the palace gate, and they were very affectionate.

Holding on to the imperial robe, Wu wept and said: "Although the concubine is humble, she has served the supreme being for a long time. If she wants to share the love of Your Highness and violate the law of adultery, if one day heirs to the great treasure, where will I put my concubine?" The prince swore to him. He said: "As soon as the official car is driven, you will be designated as the empress. If you violate this statement, God will hate it.

"Wu Shi said: "There is no evidence to speak out, so you should leave a mark. "The prince immediately untied the jasper belt and paid it, and the Wu family bowed his head to thank him. There is a poem by the historian: regardless of the relationship between people and the proper name, you will be promiscuous at the first sight.

Emperor Gaozong, the master of the hundred and two mountains and rivers, has left behind a thousand years of filthy history.

Since then, the two have communicated without any hindrance.Even when Emperor Taizong was seriously ill, the prince would do his best to respect him, or he would not eat for a long time, and his hair would turn white.Taizong wept and said: "If you can be so filial, how can I hate you again!" Why do you say this? May your majesty live forever, and your eyebrows live forever, and the envoys will look up to you."

Taizong said: "It is the destiny of heaven, and it cannot be done by manpower. I have ruled the world for more than 68 years, and Lai Qing and others have accomplished their great achievements. Now I am seriously ill, and it is expected that it is impossible to escape. Today, I entrust you two with heavenly affairs. Prince Benevolence and filial piety are known to my elders, and if I guide them well, I will die with no regrets." After speaking, tears streamed down my face.The two also wept and said: "May your Majesty protect the body of the dragon so that it will be the hope of the world." Taizong looked at the prince and said: "Both Wuji and Suiliang are ten times as talented. If the two of you are here, don't worry about the world." The prince sobbed and said, "May the father and emperor rest in the dragon's body, and live forever." The two sobbed and bowed to the ground and said: "Your mediocrity, dare not exhaust your strength and imitate me." The festival of loyalty is followed by death!" Taizong said: "Be loyal to me, I have the world, and I have a lot of power. I am gone now, don't let the world be slanderous. You ministers, I can't order them one by one." Emperor Yanwen died at the age of 23, in the second ten days of June of the [-]rd year of Zhenguan.Historians praised: Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was called the Lord of England.

Yan Wu repaired the text and cleared Haiyu.

Liquan praised: Tang Dynasty flourished for 300 years, and the expansion of the territory depends on the talents.

If the people of the world do not use heroic force, Anshi Sui Dynasty will grant Li Yuan.

Jingxuan's poem goes: drums go west and enter Zhenguanzhong, and if they succeed for half a year, which one is the same.

There are many British lords in the following Han Dynasty, and whoever is Taizong.

Tang Lihua's "Ode to Emperor Taizong": Gaozu was appointed by heaven to give birth to Emperor Taizong, and it was the destiny of heaven.Emperor Yang fainted, and the people of Li suffered from poisonous pain. They were so hot that they were cooked in the furnace, and they were even drowned in smear.Gaozu called Taizong: "You must have the world, and you criticize Mo."Taizong Jishou respectfully accepts the destiny, and the ministers please remove them. Zhang, my teacher, caress the four kingdoms, and cut off the group.Drum one side: The three sides are shocked, silently show their spirits, and follow Gu to be flat.I bear my breasts, I am safe and I am successful, to serve the king and father, and to serve the world.Ren Zhongxiao Wenwu.Establishing rites, chapters and music, although I am virtuous, if I advise you, I will accept you, and Emperor Wei will come to protect you.Since ancient times, there is nothing better than my De Erxun.The boundless Tang Dynasty, the boundless emperor, the body and life of Taizong.

At that time, the grandson Wuji, Li Ji, Yu Zhining, and Chu Suiliang held a funeral, and at the same time made Prince Zhi the Emperor Gaozong.His posthumous father was Emperor Taizong, and his posthumous mother, Changsun, was Empress Wende.Feng Changsun Wuji was named Taiwei, Li Ji was named Sikong, Yu Zhining was named Prince Zhan Shi, Chu Suiliang was named Zuo Pushe, Xue Wanche was named General of the Right Guard, Xue Rengui was named General of Guerrilla, and the rest of civil and military officials were given their own titles.The Yuan was changed to the first year of Yonghui, and the world was amnesty.

At that time, the emperor wanted to accept the Wu family but was afraid of others to judge himself, so he satirized the Wu family who lived in Ganye Temple and served as a nun for several months.

However, since the Wu family was established as Zhaoyi, they competed with the Queen and Concubine Xiao Shu for favor.Every time the Wu family disrespects the queen, he will fall in love with him and make friends with each other. Since the queen and concubine Shu are moving, the Wu family is familiar with the matter, and every time he reports it in front of the emperor, he will stop it in the middle of slander.Just a few days after the birth of Wu's daughter, the queen teased her with her arms.And when the queen came out, the Wu family killed their daughters privately.When the emperor came to the palace, the Wu family faked a smile so that the emperor's hair would be ignored, and the girl was dead.Surprised, Mrs. Wu burst into tears, and hurriedly asked the people on the left and right, and they all said that the queen came here.The emperor was furious and said: "When I became jealous later, I killed my beloved daughter, what crime is it?

" Wu's crimes of counting the queens were sobbing. He couldn't understand it later, because the emperor had the intention of abolishing the establishment. Wu cried and said: "Your Majesty lives in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but don't you remember the jade belt? "

The emperor said: "Don't worry, I will make you the queen, I am afraid that the ministers will not follow, how?"

Wu said: "Your Majesty is the king of Wancheng. Since you have promised, why are you afraid of a minister?"

The emperor said: "You say so."

Today, when we retire from the imperial court, we call our grandson Wuji, Li Ji, Yu Zhining and Chu Suiliang to the inner hall.

The four of them discussed, and Sui Liang said: "Today's call is mostly a matter in the palace. The Holy One has made a decision, and if you go against it, you will die. Taiwei, uncle Yuan, and Sikong, a hero. Don't let the saint have the name of killing uncle Yuan. . Suiliang raised the ground and did nothing to earn his position. He has been entrusted with so much care and care, and he does not fight to the death. Why do you want to see the late emperor?" Hearing this, Shiji said that he could not enter the position.Sui Liangsui and Wuji first entered the inner hall to meet the emperor.The emperor said, "I call Qing and others today. I have nothing to say. The queen has no children, and Wu Zhaoyi has a son. I want to abolish the queen and establish Zhaoyi. What do you think?" The daughter of a famous family, the late emperor was once employed by His Majesty's Six Rites. When the late Emperor was about to die, he held His Majesty's hand and called his ministers, saying: "My beautiful son and beautiful wife, I will pay you with salt." The words are still in my ears, and I dare not forget them. The empress did not I have heard it before, why did your Majesty abolish it? Your Majesty must want to be a queen, so please choose the family of the world, why the Wu family? Moreover, the Wu family's experience with the previous emperor is well known, and the world can't hide it.

After ten thousand generations, what is it like to call your Majesty?I would like to stay and think twice.If you disobey His Majesty's will, you will be guilty of ten thousand deaths. After Suiliang played, he put the wat on the steps of the palace, untied the scarf, kowtowed and bled, saying: "Return your majesty's wat, beg to release the minister to the field, and the bones will be buried under the forest. It's my luck." Hearing this from the curtain, Mrs. Wu yelled, "Why don't you cull this beast? When will you wait?" "The emperor was furious, and urgently ordered to draw it out, so he wanted to kill him. How is his life unknown?

General comment: Wuji and Suiliang are ten times more talented, and they can be trusted as lonely ministers.Emperor Taizong enjoined him to know people with sincerity.When Prince Zhi came to the throne, he accepted the Wu family as Zhaoyi, and after he wanted to establish Zhaoyi and abolished it, and the queen had never heard of Wu's scriptures as the previous emperor, everyone in the world knows, why is the emperor regarded as the master for thousands of generations?This Suiliang kowtowed and bleeds to die.It is important to take care of fate, and it has nothing to do with it!
