In just two days, the Hanyuan Palace was in full swing. The court officials above the fifth rank, local officials above the third rank, and envoys from various countries all went to the Hanyuan Palace to congratulate.
After the ceremony, the emperor issued an order for officials above the third rank to go to Linde Hall to meet. Officials above the third rank are actually mainly the top leaders of the three provinces and six ministries. Generally, there are major national affairs to be discussed in court.
For example, Xue Chongxun's official title was the Minister of Revenue. Although his title was not low, he was still not qualified to participate in such a summoning.
However, many people have guessed the main content of the discussion. Isn’t the big event that has happened recently? Isn’t it the comet that appears in the West?
Li Dan on the throne looked a little tired, but no one could raise his head and look directly at the emperor. But when he first entered the hall gate, he looked from a distance and saw that the emperor's demeanor today was not very energetic.
Everyone was here, and after the ceremony, the officials were all listed under the steps, listening to what the emperor was going to say.
Li Dan was silent for a while, coughed twice, and his voice was not loud: A few days ago, Sitiantai detected a comet entering the west, and the official advised me that the appearance of the comet was a sign that God revealed the world to get rid of the old and welcome the new.After thinking about it, I decided to pass the throne to the prince and follow the destiny of heaven...
Such a holy art was beyond expectations, and the hall was in an uproar.
Especially those prime ministers hurriedly advised: Your Majesty had no mistakes during his reign, and he was in full swing in the spring and autumn. How could he pass the throne at will?Never Ah!
The other man ignored the etiquette and shouted: Your Majesty has five princes, and a new crown prince can also be used to the will of heaven. Passing the throne is the most inappropriate plan!
Li Dan listened to everyone's noise, as if he was very patient. After listening for a while, he said: I have made up my virtue to avoid disasters, and I have made up my will.
The ministers still advised him, and many people made it clear that they did not support the prince's ascendance to the throne, which made Li Dan a little difficult...
He hesitated a little, and pondered alone for a long time. He didn't know what he thought of, and a look of unseen firmness appeared in his eyes, waving his sleeves to calm the noise of the crowd.
After a while, he said sincerely: During the reign of Zhongzong, many traitors were used, and the heavens changed a lot. The officials of the Tiantai Department asked Zhongzong to choose a virtuous son to respond to disasters and disagreements. Zhongzong was unhappy and some officials were exiled to Lingnan.The consequences were caused by Chongjun's plan to rebel and Empress Wei's chaos in politics, and Zhongzong also died at the hands of a poisonous wife.If you don’t want to have a future, you are going to put me in danger?
What he said about Zhongzong also died at the hands of a poisonous wife was just a statement. Because he wanted to launch a coup against Empress Wei at that time, in order to be justified, the unanimous remarks of the monarch and ministers of Li Dan Dynasty were the Emperor Zhongzong whom Empress Wei poisoned him.
No one can figure out the truth. There is no evidence.
After hearing him say that I was trapped in danger, the ministers were stunned: I advised you to continue to be the emperor, but instead they have become bad intentions?
...The hall was still talking, but this sudden change made everyone feel nervous. The news immediately spread. After Prince Li Longji knew about it, he immediately set off for Linde Hall.
Princess Taiping was also shocked. She was surprised and had only one thought in her heart: she could not let Li Sanlang ascend the throne!
She immediately asked someone to prepare a carriage and decided to go to the Ming Palace in person to Xiaozhi for profit and disadvantage, hoping to persuade the emperor to change his mind.
Before the guard of honor could get out of the gate, a white horse was running from the gate. The person on the horse was her eldest son Xue Chongxun.
Xue Chongxun went to visit the Hanyuan Palace Court in the morning, but failed to participate in the court discussion. He was waiting outside. As soon as he got the exact news, he hurried to Princess Taiping's Mansion in Zhenguo. He happened to meet his mother going out.
Xue Chongxun rushed directly to the front of his mother's team to block the road. When he strangled his mount, the horse neighed and raised its front hooves high.
Princess Taiping's four carriages also hurriedly stopped the horse and almost hit Xue Chongxun.At this time, Taiping cursed, lifted the curtain of the car and said: What happened... Chongxun, what are you doing?
Xue Chongxun said in a deep voice on the horse’s back: Where is your mother’s intention?
Taiping said: I'm rushing to the palace.
Xue Chongxun said coldly: Go and persuade me today?This time, I will not listen to my mother. I have no choice but to find another way. The child has prepared something in the past few days and wants to offer it to his mother.
Taiping frowned and said: At least you have to give it a try, get out of the way!
Xue Chongxun sighed, rode his horse to the side of the road, and said: I'm waiting at my mother's house, come back as soon as possible.
When Princess Taiping arrived at Linde Hall, the courtiers had already disbanded, but saw that Li Longji had taken the lead and had already arrived in front of the emperor.
When Princess Taiping heard Li Longji's hypocritical crying voice, she almost disgusted everything she had eaten in the morning.
I saw Li Longji kneeling on the ground, crying and snot saying: I am not the eldest son but the prince. I am afraid that I will not be able to defeat him. Before I tried your best, I immediately passed it on to the throne. I am frightened and asked Your Majesty to take it back...
Li Dan glanced at Taiping with anger, ignored her for the time being, and said to Li Longji with kind words: The reason why the country is safer and the reason why I win the world is the power of Sanlang!There is a disaster in the emperor's throne now, so he gave it a great throne and turned disaster into blessing. Why do Sanlang doubt it?As a filial son, why should you wait in front of the coffin and ascend the throne?
Li Longji burst into tears and shouted that he was not filial enough.Princess Taiping felt anger in her heart when she heard this. This guy obviously wanted to laugh and insisted on making a crying look. Do you think it’s disgusting?
Your Majesty, is Sanlang here to force the palace?Princess Taiping said furiously, pointed at Li Longji and cursed fiercely.
Li Dan said: Why did your sister say this?My throne is safe because of the strange phenomena from heaven. I am very afraid of God and dare not disobey God and repeat the same mistakes. Saburo said that he was the great throne to avoid disasters and had no other intentions.
Taiping immediately cried loudly, tears wet her collars. She was already beautiful, and she was so happy that she was so beautiful when she cried like this.
If it were before, if she had just cried like this, Li Dan, the brother, would have no reason not to meet any unreasonable requirements.
but……
This time it was different.
Li Dan suddenly became cold and ruthless, which made Taiping puzzled.
He suddenly murmured: Taoism says that self-cultivation and governance of the country must eliminate personal thoughts and let nature go. Since I ascended the throne, I have not done so, so that the situation is turbulent and the world is uneasy. I am ashamed of my ancestors... This time, the Li Tang Dynasty has been planning for thousands of generations and for hundreds of trillions of subjects in the world. What's wrong with me?
When he said this, he sat upright and looked stern, and there was no trace of his previous warmth.
After saying that, Li Dan walked down from the throne and helped Li Longji up and said: Sanlang can let me down, but he cannot let the ancestors of the Li family down!
While speaking, he took Li Longji's hand and pulled him up the stairs and pressed him on the throne.
There seemed to be a needle on the couch. Li Longji's butt just touched the chair and stood up immediately.Li Dan stubbornly pressed his shoulder: Sit down!
Father... Tears surged out from Li Longji's eyes.
Princess Taiping, who was standing beside her, could only stare at the father and son in a daze. She didn't know what she felt like.
Yes, Li Dan is her biological brother, born to her parents!However, even brothers and sisters are not as good as direct bloodlines. After all, fathers and sons are the real family...
Princess Taiping stopped crying, and it was useless to cry anymore. But the tears that just now had not dried up, and they were stuck to their long eyelashes and shining and crystal clear against the backdrop of the palace lanterns.
Li Longji sat on the throne blankly. Although his butt was gently touching the edge of the chair, he felt difficulty breathing and felt his chest thunderously as loud as thunder.
On this throne, looking down at the hall, the entire space is in sight, and the feeling of sitting on a high place is like standing on the top of the world, looking down at the people of the world, except for the sky, the highest here!
Otherwise, how should I call the emperor?
Li Dan said: I have decided to let the officials prepare ceremonies and music, and I will issue an edict to send a message to Sanlang.
After the ceremony, the emperor issued an order for officials above the third rank to go to Linde Hall to meet. Officials above the third rank are actually mainly the top leaders of the three provinces and six ministries. Generally, there are major national affairs to be discussed in court.

Li Dan said: I have decided to let the officials prepare ceremonies and music, and I will issue an edict to send a message to Sanlang.
