Chapter 149 This matter has to start when I was selected into the "Ranking of the Top Ten Famous Prime Ministers in History"
After the rewards were distributed, everyone went back to their homes.
Unlike some powerful generals who live alone, most famous ministers have a large or small family behind them.
Especially Fang Xuanling. Not long after he died, their family was in turmoil.
Because of his great contributions during his lifetime, Fang Xuanling was awarded the title of Duke of Liang. His title should have been inherited by his eldest son, Fang Yizhi, but his second son, Fang Yiai, also coveted the title of Duke of Liang.
Fang Yiai was Li Shimin's son-in-law, and his wife was Li Shimin's daughter, Princess Gaoyang.
Although Fang Yizhi was unwilling, he was afraid that Li Shimin would favor his son-in-law, so he had to write a letter himself, requesting that the Duke of Liang be transferred to his younger brother Fang Yiai.
Li Shimin knew that it was his daughter and son-in-law who put pressure on Fang Yizhi and forced Fang Yizhi to give up his title, so he did not approve the memorial for Fang Yizhi to give up his title.
Fang Yiai failed to seize the title. Knowing that his father-in-law Li Shimin was alive, he had no chance to take away the title of Duke of Liang from his eldest brother, so he had no choice but to endure it.
When Li Shimin died and Tang Gaozong succeeded to the throne, Fang Yiai and Princess Gaoyang thought that the opportunity had finally come.
The husband and wife teamed up to frame his eldest brother Fang Yizhi. Emperor Gaozong had no choice but to send Changsun Wuji to investigate the case thoroughly.
The charges that Princess Gaoyang arranged for Fang Yizhi were very funny. She actually reported to Yousi Yamen that Fang Yizhi coveted her beauty, had evil intentions towards her, and even touched her.
Fang Yizhi saw that his younger brother and his sister-in-law were so shameless in order to seize his title, so he went on to report Princess Gaoyang and Fang Yiai for treason.
Changsun Wuji wanted to take this opportunity to attack a group of people who threatened Tang Gaozong's status, so he took the opportunity to make things bigger. He also made Fang Yiai's rebellion case a solid case and killed Princess Gaoyang and Fang Yiai.
.
Because Fang Yizhi was the son of a hero of the late emperor, he was spared the death penalty in favor of his father Fang Xuanling. However, he was deprived of his title and was exiled to a poor area bordering the young and old.
Fang Xuanling never imagined that after working hard and conscientiously all her life, her stupid son would ruin the family in the end.
He didn't want to see, at least not his eldest son Fang Yizhi, being exiled, so he chose to be reborn and gave up using the time-traveling stone.
In Fang Xuanling's world, this year is the 22nd year of Zhenguan.
In the 22nd year of Zhenguan, Fang Xuanling died of illness at the age of 71;
In the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin passed away at the age of 53.
On this day, Li Shimin, who was also ill, suddenly learned that Fang Xuanling was seriously ill, and immediately sent someone to carry Fang Xuanling to him.
The old monarch and his minister shed tears involuntarily when their eyes met, but they had nothing to say.
But in fact, they already know it in their hearts. Soon they will be separated forever.
When Li Shimin saw Fang Xuanling, who was seriously ill, he could think of himself as an old man who was dying. Now he just hoped that he could accompany his old friend who had created miracles with him to complete the last journey of his life.
On July 24, Fang Xuanling passed away forever when he was seventy-one years old.
In fact, in the 22nd year of Zhenguan, a total of three important officials from the early Tang Dynasty died, but the one who dealt the biggest blow to Li Shimin was Fang Xuanling.
After Fang Xuanling died, Li Shimin did not cry, but he did not eat anything for four days, until finally Li Zhi personally knelt in front of Li Shimin's bed.
Of course, that was what happened after Fang Xuanling's death in history.
In this time and space, at the moment after Fang Xuanling died, a stone tablet suddenly descended from the sky and immersed his body in the golden light.
"Father! Father!!!" Li Zhi hurriedly ran towards Li Shimin's palace and began to shout anxiously from a distance.
Li Shimin was lying on the bed, and suddenly heard Li Zhi's anxious shouts and hurried footsteps, and he suddenly understood something in his heart, "You still left, why are you so anxious to leave me?"
Li Shimin knew that Fang Xuanling's time was running out, but when this moment really came, he still felt as if his entire being had been emptied out, and that the whole world seemed to have abandoned him.
He was very sad, but his body was very calm and calm, like a dying old man.
Li Zhi finally ran to Li Shimin's bed, out of breath, and stammered: "Father! There is a stone tablet outside! The room is in the same room as the other room."
Li Shimin was brought back to reality by Li Zhi's voice. He spoke with difficulty and said in an extremely hoarse voice: "That's right, use the best stone to carve a monument for Xuanling. Also, give Fang Xuanling the posthumous title of Taiwei.
His posthumous title was 'Wenzhao' and he was buried with Zhaoling Mausoleum."
Li Zhi was stunned after hearing this, and then he straightened his tongue and explained: "It's not like this, father, it's the prime minister who has a miracle!"
"Alas, Xuanling has followed me all his life. He has been loyal and made outstanding achievements. Now that he is leaving, it can be regarded as a good death. What did you just say?"
"E'erchen said that there was a miracle on the Prime Minister's side!"
"Miracles? What miracles???" When Li Shimin heard this, he suddenly sat up.
"I heard from the attendants there that just when the prime minister was about to die, a stone monument suddenly fell from the sky!
The stone tablet emitted a golden light, shrouding Fang Xiang's body in it.
Then suddenly a moving light curtain appeared in the sky, and there was a sound inside the light curtain. Ranking of historical names and appearances. Five names and appearances appeared. There are later lives, and there are past lives. Three of them appeared in the Tang Dynasty. They were so awesome that they were resurrected.
Got it!"
"??????"
At the beginning of the meeting, Li Shimin could still understand what Li Zhi said, but as he talked later, Li Shimin felt as if he was listening to a book from heaven.
Seeing that Li Shimin looked confused and confused, Li Zhi slapped his thigh and said, "I can't tell you clearly, so let the prime minister come and tell you in person!"
"Ah?" Li Shimin suddenly opened his eyes wide and asked, "Who are you talking about?"
Li Zhi replied: "Fang Xiang!"
"Didn't he pass away?"
"But he's alive again!"
"Are you kidding me, bitch?"
"That's why I said it was a miracle!!"
"."
Just when Li Shimin was wondering whether he seemed to be easy to deceive as he got older, or whether Li Zhi had become stupid and thought that he would be easier to bully after Fang Xuanling died.
An extremely clear and familiar voice suddenly came from the outer room, "Fang Qiao Fang Xuanling, a native of Linzi, Qizhou, comes to see His Highness the King of Qin!"
The sound of "Your Highness the King of Qin" instantly brought back memories that had been buried in Li Shimin's heart for more than thirty years.
It seems that the first words Fang Xuanling said when she saw him were this sentence!
In Li Shimin's slowly opening eyes, a young man wearing an old scholar's white shirt walked in calmly, just like when he first met him!
"Fang Xuanling?"
Li Shimin's words of "Fang Xuanling" made Fang Xuanling himself no longer live in Bengbu.
Fang Xuanling, who was reborn after death, fell to his knees like a jade pillar pushing down a mountain of gold, and cried: "I have seen your majesty, Fang Xuanling!"
When Li Shimin saw that this "young man" turned out to be Fang Xuanling, he immediately struggled, sat up with Li Zhi's help, and asked: "You are not?"
"I am dead, but I am reborn!" Before Li Shimin could finish speaking, Fang Xuanling began to explain to Li Shimin and Li Zhi: "This matter must be included in the "Top Ten Famous Prime Ministers in History" list.
