Chapter 58 Early Dynasty

Wu Zetian taught Li Xian a lesson, what is politics?

It’s not that the emperor must be you. If you don’t want to be like, just get out.

However, Li Xian is not a ruthless person. He did not think about touching his younger brother and killing him. He could only do the throne himself. Just like Li Lun never thought about killing his older brother and becoming the emperor himself.

Although Li Zhi and Wu Zetian did not train these two sons to become talents, they did not prevent them from growing into filial sons.

Li Xian was demoted to the King of Luling and took his wife to Fangzhou. Wei was already scared. This woman who had never experienced strong winds and waves was useless except for her appearance, so Li Xian could protect her in front of Wu Zetian.

"Prince, are we really going to leave the capital?" The moment before getting in the car, the woman was still confirming that this was a foregone conclusion.

Li Xian was already sad and even more sad, "Oh, let's go."

Do you want to ask him if he is willing?

I am definitely not willing to be the emperor. Who would rather be the prince than to be the prince if you can become the emperor?

But what he said doesn't count.

After leaving the city, he saw his younger brother.

Li Lun has been waiting outside for a long time, and his figure is very desolate in the blowing of the poor family.

Li Xian got off the car and met him, his face full of frustration.

"Brother, I have no intention of this." Li Lun said very sincerely.

"I naturally know the heart of my brother. My father has left a will. My mother has given me a chance again and again. It is because my foolish brother is stubborn. My brother is about to be on the throne. Remember that my father and mother are afraid of their relatives, value virtuous and capable, and do not let down my mother's expectations." As the deposed emperor, it is definitely not easy to live up to his life. Fortunately, this younger brother will never make things difficult for me, otherwise it will be really dangerous. Therefore, Li Xian's words come from the heart and hope that my brother can do it well.

"My brother doesn't need to send him off again. I don't know when I will meet again when I will see you. Take care of me."

"Brother, take care of yourself!"

The two separated.

Li Zhi had a great difference in his education for his sons. He had high hopes for his eldest son, so his teachers were all great scholars and had a prominent position in the court. This was not only a helping him to ascend the throne in the future, but also subtly influenced his thinking and behavior. The education for other sons was different, and there was not so much political education. Although the teachers were also outstanding people, they might not have political experience. The disciples taught by those with experience and inexperienced people were very different, so what was the reality.

It’s not that Li Zhi didn’t want his sons to become talented, but that his childhood experience made him afraid of this kind of struggle between his mother and his compatriots. What Li Zhi thought was that if he had not learned so many strategies, if his second brother had not wanted to get rid of him and his elder brother, perhaps Chengqian would not die and he would not have fought for the throne.

Unfortunately, the eldest son he had carefully trained was gone, and an excellent heir, who became ill due to overwork and died on the throne of the prince.

Three days later, Li Lun appeared in the Daming Palace in full costume. Today is his throne ceremony. Li Lun was full of energy and had a sense of heroism that the whole world is in my hands.

He had never expected this position. His father told him since he was a child that he would be a noble prince, not a noble emperor in the future. But he was the destiny of heaven. After going around, he still took this position.

This is a position that can make people inflate and lose their minds.

This is a position that makes everyone in the world crazy and dream of. Anyone who has the opportunity to sit in this position will put life and death out of the way and try his best to make a living and die.

Li Lun was experiencing this kind of madness and could not control his smile at all, although behind it was the loss of his brother.

Everyone could see the ecstasy on Li Lun's face.

Three steps, two steps, one step.

Li Lun walked into the Golden Palace.

As I have seen before, the throne is in the most eye-catching position, with a tempting power.

Li Lun was not happy for too long.

Suddenly I found a long curtain next to the throne with seats.

What does this mean?

Li Lunqiang pretended to be calm and stepped into the hall step by step.

"The new emperor ascended the throne!" The eunuch's sharp voice rang.

Li Lun sat on the throne and accepted worship from all the ministers.

"Flat." Li Lun was a little surprised.

At this time, Pei Yan, the minister who was entrusted by the late emperor, came out. "Your Majesty, the late Majesty has high hopes for me. I cannot advise the King of Luling, which almost made a big mistake. Now, I and the three high-ranking officials ask the Empress Dowager to come out of the mountain and rule the affairs behind the curtain to ensure that Your Majesty will not make any mistakes in decisions."

Li Lun smiled stiffly, "What I said is reasonable. I have just ascended the throne and I am not familiar with political affairs. I have to do anything about the Empress Dowager and everyone."

The morning court on this day was particularly harsh.

Li Lun was really not familiar with these things, and he was not as good as the Queen Mother. In the end, these ministers didn't ask him, and directly reported to the Queen Mother and followed the Queen Mother's resolution to deal with it.

On the first day, Li Lun understood the situation of King Luling, and his face was almost the same as when King Luling left.

Empress Wu increased her dissatisfaction with this son.

After going down court, Li Lun went to pay homage to Empress Wu, and met his sister Princess Taiping and her son-in-law on the way.

The princess looked at her brother's face and felt a little reluctant. "Brother Emperor, don't be so sad."

Li Lun felt a lot of grievances in his heart, "My sister, go and see my mother with me. I am now the king of a country, so how can I feel sad?"

Princess Taiping couldn't bear to expose him, so she just pulled his arm and shouted, "Brother Emperor".

The princess also went to see King Luling, and was at the next stop of Li Lun's farewell. The princess couldn't bear to disturb his excitement these days. Happiness was short, one day would be more than one day.

Empress Wu did not unexpectedly see the emperor's arrival.

Several people greeted first.

Today, Li Lun is a little restless even though he is already an emperor.

Princess Taiping and Shen Sanwen were not restricted like this. If they had known that things would be like this, Princess Taiping just felt sorry for her brother.

Empress Wu began to ask, "How does the emperor feel when he went to court for the first time today?"

Li Lun replied respectfully, "There are still many unknowns. Fortunately, the mother handled the political affairs properly."

Empress Wu nodded, "My son still needs to learn a lot. In his position, he should do his own things diligently and never neglect them."

"My son is very careful to follow the teachings of my mother." Li Lun finally felt a little relieved.

"The emperor can no longer call himself a son." Empress Wu did not send him away as usual, and then discussed matters with the princess and others, but instead began to discuss some issues.

"The position of the minister is vacant, I wonder if anyone can recommend it?"

Li Lun felt cold sweat on his forehead.

This position is not small. Successful recommendation means a great favor. If one's own people can have a great impact on the government, it is a force that cannot be underestimated.

Princess Taiping didn't know how to speak, and this question didn't seem to be set for her.

"Emperor, can anyone choose?"

But Li Lun was frightened. Li Xian was dismissed from office because of his recommendation, although Wei Xuanzhen was a relative of the foreigner.

There were no people around Li Lun. Some literati who only knew calligraphy and poetry came to be prime ministers, which would probably make the government a mess.

"Mother, there is no one around me who can serve as prime ministers! Most of the children and ministers interact with each other, and they don't know anything about the talents of governing. This matter is decided by the mother and queen."
