Chapter 284: No way to escape
But that said, this prince cannot be deposed easily. Isn’t it because the position of the prince is indecisive?
Cui Feng and Di Renjie had already looked at each other without realizing it.
The rest of the people looked at each other.
But now, no one said anything.
Your Majesty's meaning is very clear. No wonder he had to ask Li Dan to come to the capital before, and no wonder he let Li Dan take charge of the imperial guards. It turned out that everything was to summon Li Dan to replace Li Xian.
Li Xian is indeed not a qualified emperor, and Wei is definitely not a good-looking person. I am afraid that His Majesty completely wants to cut off Li Xian's succession as a result of Wei.
Because in terms of chronological order, it was Wei Xuanzhen's "nonsense" that made Wu Zetian feel determined.
In other words, Princess Taiping was preparing to marry the Wei family, but the result was that the Qin family fell into the Qin family. The Wei family clearly had the cooked ducks flying. Once Li Xian ascended the throne and allowed the Wei family to gain power, wouldn't they want to vent their hatred and revenge?
This is of course a reason. This reason seems to be quite sufficient.
Now His Majesty has made up his mind and has made arrangements to let Li Dan control the imperial guards. Although several of these twenty guards are actually in the hands of the Wu family, and there are also several guards who are loyal to Li Xian, there is nothing serious about these.
Now, everything is natural and finally the end of the journey is finally revealed.
Li Dan, who was sitting obediently on one side, did not say anything. He chose to remain silent and carefully observed everyone's movements. When he set out to Luoyang, he had many worries, for fear that after arriving in Luoyang, there would be a disaster, and he was also worried that he would be in a more unfavorable position in the future, but he never expected that he would be greeted by the upcoming yellow robe.
He was a restrained person and did not show any joy. He just looked at all this calmly. Since the Queen Mother made up her mind, there would be arrangements. He just needed to watch from the wall.
Di Renjie finally came out, and he said seriously: "Your Majesty, I think it is not possible. The prince is mellow. He is famous and has been convinced by all officials. How can he be easily abolished just because of some trivial matters in Mengjin? The prince is a benevolent person and will definitely be a saint in the future. Your Majesty's move will only arouse suspicion from all over the world. Moreover, the prince is a three-son son. Since ancient times, he has said that he has established a legitimate and chief. Once it is repeated, he is afraid that the crowd will make people ruthless and cause unnecessary trouble."
Wu Zetian seemed disdainful of this sentence. She just pursed her lips and smiled faintly, but did not refute it.
But Di Renjie started, and the others also had the courage. Zheng Rong said seriously: "No rules can lead to a square and a circle, and it is not a joke to the easily crowned prince. The prince was born by Your Majesty. If it is deposed, wouldn't it be laughed at by others? Wei's inherent lack of character, but he only deposed the prince for this reason and it is difficult to convince the public."
Someone came out again and spoke out for justice.
Only Cui Xu didn't say anything, Cui Xu raised his eyes and just looked at Wu Zetian.
And it was Wu Zetian who was also watching him.
Any major policy will be difficult if it does not receive the support of the prime minister. Even Wu Zetian must understand Cui Feng's attitude.
Both sides were obviously guessing each other's thoughts. After a long time, Cui Xu sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the current crown prince is not the most virtuous among the clans, but what Duke Di said is very much, but the current crown prince is the most benevolent. If the crown prince is deposed, then what will Your Majesty use to convince the people of the world? What the old minister said is for the sake of the country. Your Majesty, I am only afraid that once the Longmen has no master, I will be waiting for another empty position, and the disaster will eventually come to Xiao Wall."
He expressed his concerns.
Now it has finally stabilized, but once the prince is deposed, the new prince is Li Dan, but is others willing to accept it? If you don’t agree, there will be someone who will compete for it. Why do you need to cause this trouble?
Cui Feng's words obviously have the least smell of gunpowder, but the meaning inside is thought-provoking. Isn't it enough to have many changes and many people killed over the years? I finally had a safe life for a year or two, and I really can't make trouble anymore.
Wu Zetian seemed to have expected such great resistance. She pursed her red lips and said, "Prince King Li Dan is also my son. She is benevolent and virtuous. Such a person can be a king."
With a decisive word, Li Dan directly pushed Li Dan to the forefront. Li Dan's face was still very calm. He chose to shut up because at this time, it was a confrontation between the Queen Mother and the Ministers, and it had nothing to do with him.
Di Renjie was furious. Although sometimes Di Renjie would pretend to be a grandson, he didn't know where he got his courage from at this critical moment. He said seriously: "Your Majesty, don't forget King Luling!"
This sentence is really bold. Although King Luling was adopted by Li Hong, he was also Li Hong's son in terms of law, but after all, it was Li Dan. Di Renjie's old story was re-reported because he was anxious. He knew that once Wu Zetian could not change his mind, there would be a disaster that might happen next.
Bang...
Wu Zetian was furious, and a trace of murderous intent flashed through her eyes.
She slapped the table hard.
The hall suddenly became silent.
Only Di Renjie was fearless and he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is a saint, so he should know..."
Wu Zetian said sternly: "Enough!"
Di Renjie was still unmoved: "I am speaking up for justice, how can I make sense!"
Wu Zetian suddenly stood up and looked determined: "Come on, take Di Renjie down!"
For a moment, there was a chaos in the palace. Some people wanted to beg for mercy for Di Renjie, while others looked like earth. Di Renjie said: "I am willing to be killed by the neck. I only hope that Your Majesty will think twice. The prince will not be abolished!"
Wu Zetian was already waving her sleeves, smiled coldly, and only left a few words: "Be imprisoned!"
The ministers were stunned. Li Dan was already quietly leaving in a panic. A team of warriors rushed in and wanted to take Di Renjie. Cui Xu and several ministers hurriedly stopped him. Cui Xu said, "I want to plead with Your Majesty, please wait."
The guard said, "Mr. Cui, since Your Majesty has an oral order, we will only act according to the order. The king's order is like a mountain, and he dare not disagree. If Mr. Cui asks for love, he will go quickly, just wait..." After he said that, he said sternly: "Take Di Renjie down."
It is obviously unwise to be entangled here at this time. Cui Feng didn't say anything, but just took a look and suggested: "I'm going to ask for a meeting now. Let's disperse each other. State affairs are important."
Cui Xu left Xuanzheng Hall and hurried to the harem. He asked for a meeting. An eunuch went there and came back immediately and said, "Your Majesty said that you will not see any foreign ministers these days."
Cui Xu then realized the seriousness of the situation. His face turned pale and said, "Okay, I understand." Any move at the moment was useless. Cui Xu suddenly realized that this might not be the result of His Majesty's anger, but might have been intentional, which means... she had already expected that she would kill the chicken to warn the monkey, and the chicken she was going to kill was Di Renjie.
Thinking of this, Cui Feng couldn't help but sweat. He realized that this time Di Renjie was a real disaster, because His Majesty was clearly so sincere, in order to block the leisurely mouths of the people in the world, or to kill Di Renjie to show his determination.
Cui Feng's pace began to be disordered, one was Di Renjie and the other was His Majesty's determination. These two things were like big rocks pressing on his heart.
He looked up and said that although he had experienced countless officialdoms, he suddenly felt powerless at this time.
But... nothing can obviously not let him happen.
Cui Yue finally gritted his teeth. He must be more determined than others!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The news about Xuanzheng Hall has spread throughout the court and the country. For a moment, this stormy news not only exceeded everyone's expectations, but also surprised everyone.
When everyone has no time to digest the news.
The Longmen Palace is already in a mess.
Wei almost fell into a state of decline.
What happened today was a catastrophe for her, and it was ten thousand times more dangerous than his father being driven out of Luoyang City. Even if the Wei family was gone, there was still a prince. As long as the prince was there, there would be no need to worry about not having a day of making a comeback. But once the position of prince was gone, what was left? What would you face next? Return to Luling? He was monitored by countless people and was frightened every day, waiting for a disaster to come.
Now, for Wei, it was obvious that the disaster was coming. She was about to get up to find Li Xian, but soon she realized that Li Xian was not around at all, so she angrily threw a few porcelain bottles, walked around the hall with her hair disheveled, and then raised her head: "Call Zhao Jin, call Zhao Jin."
Zhao Jin was the attendant censor. He had always been very close to the Wei family. Since the Wei family suffered a disaster and was expelled from Luoyang. In some cases, Wei often came to Zhao Jin if he wanted to discuss with others.
The people from Longmen Palace were busy inviting Zhao Jin, but after half an hour, there was still no movement. An old eunuch came in and said in a vain: "Empress, Censor Zhao said he is sick."
There is a gate hidden in this sentence. The old eunuch didn't say that Zhao Jin was sick, but that he was sick. This was not a disease, it was clearly an excuse. It could be so coincidental that he was sick when he said that he was sick. It was obviously because he was hiding when he was about to be in trouble.
Wei's face turned completely gloomy.
It's really over.
