  Chapter 1413 Restoration of Tuogu Hanging Curtain

  Holding half a cup of warm ginseng tea with both hands.

  The emperor let out a long breath with the hot air smelling like centuries-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain in Bohai Road, blinked his eyes, and his whole body seemed to warm up again.

  The spirit is also much better, and I am no longer so listless and always want to doze off.

  Empress Qin took a soft velvet pillow and put it on the emperor's back, so that the emperor could lean on the couch more comfortably.

  In front of the imperial couch.

The right minister of the east station came to Ji, the left minister of the west station was Shangguanyi, there were also the Zuo Kuangzheng Pei Xingjian and the right Kuangzheng Jia Runfu in the middle stage, the old Cui Dunli of Yutang Pavilion, Li Jingxuan, the minister of Fengge, the left governor of Luantai Cheng Chumo, the right ruler Niu Jianwu, and Xiantai Su Zhenghe Chujun, Tianguan Shangshu Liu Xiangdao and others lined up on the left and right, and reported the situation of each government to the emperor face to face.

  The emperor's condition was too serious, and the imperial doctor asked him to rest more, but today the emperor still sent a decree to summon the chief ministers of the central yamen, and he already had some intentions of asking for help.

  The emperor issued an edict in Zhengdan to change the official system, which was also a gesture of flexing his muscles, but now it is obvious that the emperor also knows that his situation is not good.

  Longshuo New Deal, if the Emperor Longshuo is gone, what about He Longshuo New Deal?

Cui Dunli, a former academician of the Hanlin Academy, is now renamed Yutang under the new official system. As the queen mother's uncle, Cui Dunli, who is in his 70s, is also the prime minister of the three dynasties. "

Holding the teacup in his hand, the emperor swept his eyes over the butchers, and finally said directly, "I regret it at the beginning, I should never have listened to the instigation of evil magicians and took that elixir, now that I have made a big mistake, it is too late to regret. "

"Don't talk about that, and you don't need to comfort me. I know that a big mistake has been made, and I can't recover from it. I am ashamed of my grand master. When I go to Jiuquan in the future, I will have no face to face my ancestors, my ancestors, my ancestors... "

   "I want to establish a prince!"

  The emperor gritted his teeth, revealing his determination.

   "The second prince, Lu Wang Longqing, is the next in line between me and the empress, and should be made the heir apparent."

The prince died when he was only five years old, and now his second son, King Lu, is only three years old. But for the seriously ill emperor, this is a matter of no choice. Inheritance may still be troublesome.

   It is also safe to appoint the crown prince now.

  The emperor also considered whether the sons were young, whether they should be passed on to their brothers. For example, the seventh younger brother of the emperor Li Hong, the king of Jin, was a brother of the same mother, but in the end, he still had some selfishness.

  At this time, apart from the emperor and other ministers, only Empress Qin was present in the palace. After hearing what the emperor said, the empress looked complicated, turned around behind the screen, and carried out the three-year-old Lu Wang Li Longqing.

   "Erlang, greetings, gentlemen!"

  The three-year-old Lu Wang Li Longqing was just an innocent child, holding his mother's hand in one hand, and looking at the princes in purple robes and jade belts with **** eyes.

   "Meet the gentlemen." Li Longqing bowed politely, but his movements seemed steady.

  Emperor Li Zhao beckoned, and the queen carried King Lu to the emperor.

  The emperor rubbed his son's hair. Now that he sees his second son, he still thinks of his eldest son who is already sensible. When he thinks that the eldest son whom he had placed high hopes on died young, Li Zhao is still so heartbroken that he can't breathe.

   "My lords, please!"

  Yutang Pavilion elder Cui Dunli also sighed in his heart, and took a step forward, "I dare not obey the edict, so I will draft an imperial edict for the saint!"

  The empress hurriedly asked someone to fetch paper, ink, brush and inkstone, and moved a few cases. Cui Dunli, who was in his seventies, began to draft the book in front of everyone.

  The Right Prime Minister of Dongtai Laiji, after all, is the head of the political affairs hall, the prime minister in charge of the political affairs pen, and at this time also stood up and bowed to the imperial edict.

  Before, the ministers also discussed in private, in case of the worst situation, what should be done, whether to support the emperor's youngest son as the reserve, or the brother's brother, and the emperor's adult brother as the reserve, whether to ask the queen mother to listen to the government behind the curtain.

   But now the emperor's attitude is clear. The emperor chose to appoint his own son as the crown prince. Even if he is only a three-year-old child, the prime ministers cannot object at this time.

   After all, the emperor is still alive, even if he looks sick and panting, he is still the emperor of Tang Dynasty.

   What he wants to establish is also his own second son, Lu Wang Longqing, born of Empress Qin. There is no legal problem at all, so the prime ministers can't object, let alone why should they object?

Now is not a time when the country is in crisis. It is more stable for the people and the government to have an older brother. Now the Tang Dynasty is so powerful that Xuanhe, even if the young prince succeeds to the throne, there is no need to worry about it if there are prime ministers to assist the government. question.

  Compared to the controversy and possible turmoil caused by the controversy over establishing a younger brother, establishing a young prince is less prone to problems.

   "I pay homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The right minister came to Ji to take the lead, so other central ministers such as the prime ministers of the Zhengshitang, the ministers of the Fengge Luantai, the elders of the Yutang, and the Suzheng of the Xiantai, all followed the three-year-old Lu Wang Li who was in the arms of the emperor. Longqing pays homage.

  With this obeisance, the ministers of the central government have officially recognized and supported Li Longqing as the reserve.

   This major event has been settled.

   "Cui Yutang, you draft another edict!"

  Cui Dunli spread out the paper and picked up a pen to look at the emperor, waiting for the imperial decree.

   "Edict Shangfu, Shangzhu Kingdom, Anguo Qi King, Lu Song King, Nanhai Xuanwei Envoy, Hongwenguan University Bachelor and National History, Taishi Qin Lang, and Prince Taishi, and Prince Zhan Shi."

   After the emperor finished speaking, he coughed a few times and drank the remaining ginseng tea in his hand before recovering.

  As soon as this decree came out, no one objected, even the husbands and fathers felt that it should be done.

  After all, Qin Lang was the elder of the Tang Dynasty and the Four Dynasties, and the three dynasties decided to support the heroes,

   Zengxiang three emperors established two emperors,

   Now that a new crown prince is to be established, it is still the intention of relying on Gu, and it must have Qin Lang's support.

  Grand Master and Prince Tai Shi plus Prince Zhan Shi, this is just an honorary title, but when the new prince is established here, it has great symbolic meaning for Qin Lang to have such a title. There is no need for Qin Lang to enter the capital, and it is very likely that Qin Lang will not enter the capital, so holding such a title can also play a role in stabilizing people's hearts.

   "A bachelor of Hongwenguan also studied national history, Dongtai Youxiang, Tongping Zhangshi, Rong Guogong came to help, entered the third division of Fuyitong, and was named Sikong and Prince Taifu, and Prince Zhanshi."

  The right chancellor, Shangguanyi, entered the title of Chu Guogong, the Taibao and the Prince Taibao, and the Prince Shaozhan Shi, and added the three divisions of Fuyitong.

  Zuo Ruo Cheng Chu Mojia Fuguo General, Jin Taiwei and Prince Shaoshi, plus Prince Zuowei rate. Niu Jianwu, who was in power on the right, was added to assist the general of the country, entered the Taibao and the prince Shaofu, and added the prince's right guard rate.

  ······

All the princes in the palace have their own rewards. Basically, the ranks are promoted to one level, and the titles are also conferred. At least they are disbanded. He is also an official of the East Palace.

  The purpose of doing this is also obvious. The emperor gave these Tuogu ministers grace, so that they can loyally support the young prince in the future.

  Although the emperor did a bit of arbitrariness in awarding rewards, in the heart of the critically ill young emperor, he didn't care about that. His only thought now is how to ensure that his throne can be safely passed on to his youngest son.

   After a pause, the emperor spoke again.

   "If I die, you will support the crown prince to succeed you, and you will all be ministers who care about your loneliness..."

   "The crown prince is still young, and I need to ask all the ministers to teach and assist you with all your heart."

  The emperor seemed to be hesitating for a long time, before he said again, "After my death, if the grand master refuses to enter the court to assist the government, I will ask the queen to listen to the government behind the curtain, and the power will be equal to Zhang Jun's state affairs."

   Instead of asking the Queen Mother to listen to the government behind the curtain, but to ask the Queen Mother to calm the state affairs of the army and listen to the government behind the curtain. This seems to be the reason why the emperor hesitated for a long time just now.

  The princes looked at the queen. The young Queen Qin's face was full of sadness. The eldest daughter of Shangfu, King Qi of Anguo and Princess Taiping of Zhenguo undoubtedly won the emperor's trust.

   Between mother and wife, the emperor finally chose to let his wife listen to politics.

  The reason for this is that none of the princes in the palace is a human being, and it will be broken at the first thought.

After all, although the Empress Dowager Qin is the emperor's biological mother, the crown prince is also the grandson of the empress dowager Qin, and even the queen mother is the queen mother's niece. However, the crown prince is only three years old, and the empress dowager Qin gave birth to five princes, and the other four are still young. Jin Wang Li Hong is quite famous.

  Anzhi, the Empress Dowager Qin will not have any ideas at that time, let Jin Wang Li Hong be the emperor?

  This kind of thing is not impossible, but very possible.

  So even if there is a one in ten thousand possibility, this is still a hidden danger, but the crown prince is the biological son of Queen Qin, and she will definitely help him without reservation.

  After all, the queen mother and the prince are separated by a generation.

It is not contradictory for the emperor to entrust the young crown prince to a group of prime ministers while he is critically ill, but he also wants the queen to hang the curtain. A person who makes decisions on behalf of the prince, until the prince becomes an adult in the future.

"Also, in order to make it easier for the queen to listen to the government behind the curtain and communicate with the foreign courts, I plan to restore the Xuanwei Court, change its name to Lintai, fill Lintai with eunuchs, and set up several deputy envoys to lead the internal servants and connect the past and the future , communicate internally and externally.”

After all, the empress is a woman, and it will be inconvenient to listen to the government behind the curtain in the future. It is naturally the most convenient to use eunuchs to communicate with the ministers of foreign courts. Restoring the Xuanhui Yuan set up by the Supreme Emperor, let them be in charge of linking the past and passing on the will. Communicating with internal and external errands, and even serving as the queen's general and internal affairs, will also help in special situations in the future.

   Right Prime Minister Laiji and others thought about it for a while, and finally agreed according to the order, because such an organization is really needed at that time.

  Everything is almost explained, the emperor is already listless, and he waved his hand.

  The queen immediately summoned the imperial doctor.

   "The ministers will leave!"

  Emperor nodded, "The court affairs are all for you."

  Cui Dunli had also drafted several imperial edicts, which were also sealed by the emperor at this time and could be officially issued.

   Walking out of the palace gate, everyone understands that the sky is about to change again.

   "Your Prime Minister, in the palace just now, why didn't you tell the saint what you found about Nangong?"

Laiji sighed, "Sage is like this now, these things don't need to be reported to the emperor, and the emperor will only make the saint's illness worse, and make the saint more difficult. Some things should be solved by us ministers for the saint. "

   "Then how to deal with Nangong?"

  Laiji narrowed his eyes. Although the evidence he found was not much, Nangong was indeed uneasy. What he found was enough to shock people.

"At this moment, there is no room for any disturbance. Some people are unwilling to be lonely, and some are ambitious. They always want to covet the success of the sky. Hmph, we can't move Nangong, but can't we move other guys? They want to die, then Don’t be polite to them, catch them all, arrest them all, chase down their writings since their birth, stop them, remove their names, have no family property, and let them go to Luzon for three generations, and they will be edited and managed!”

Cheng Chumo on the left and Niu Jianwu on the right also squinted their eyes and nodded, their eyes were full of dangerous light. Some people wanted to fish in troubled waters, and some tried to restore the Supreme Emperor. For such things, they sent the Supreme Emperor to Shangyang Palace for house arrest. How could someone allow it?

   "Please rest assured, Prime Minister Right, we will leave this matter to Luantai."

  Niu Jianwu also nodded, "Don't worry, no one can escape, dog slaves!"
