Several times in this life, the past has been forgotten, but Yamagata is still pillowed in the cold current.
The spring rain seems to have brought a touch of summer heat, but the chill always comes unexpectedly late at night, and sometimes I just feel cold on my skin.
In the spring day, the original enthronement ceremony suddenly disappeared.
What replaced it were nine melodious bells floating in the cold night of the imperial city.
That night, the people of Chang'an were awakened by the sound of bells, but suddenly they heard the sound of cavalry in the streets, and then horses passed by quickly, and there was the sound of gentleness.
Li Ao, the tenth king of the Wen Dynasty, died of illness in Yang'an Hall on the seventh day of April in the 45th year of Chongwen.
Then there was a sleepless night in the cold night, and the next morning, the whole city was already deserted, and the sound of crying was loud.
The news spread all over the country along with the inn, but within three days, the whole world of Wen Dynasty knew that the country was in ruins, and all the mountains and rivers were covered with silk.
On this day, the imperial edict written by Li Ao was also hung on the imperial city.
Li Aoping bluntly said that in this life, he has not followed the wishes of the late emperor, he has not become a scholar in the world, he has sought the ultimate realm of Confucianism and Taoism, and he has not fought for a peaceful and fertile land for the people.
Every word is extremely moving, and some officials and scholars cried loudly, feeling that the world was unfair and that the Wen Dynasty lost Mingjun in pain.
But there are also those who are thoughtful and see that there is something wrong with this.
Li Ao did not plead for the prince, and did not even see him ascending the throne.
After Li Ao passed away, Prime Minister Tan and several other great Confucian scholars were temporarily in charge of the government. They presided over Li Ao's burial and agreed on the posthumous title of Emperor Wencheng, which meant to stabilize the people and establish the government.
After Li Ao's affairs were completed, nine great scholars gathered in Chang'an for the first time, and Xiang He presented Li Ao's final imperial edict.
It said that Prince Li Dong was ill and could not succeed him, so he was made King of Qi and could choose his own fiefdom.
The new emperor of the Wen Dynasty was the daughter of the princess and Princess Mingshu of the Wen Dynasty, Li Moer.
As soon as this incident came out, the entire Wen Dynasty was in an uproar, and there were endless voices of condemnation. But when Li Mo'er appeared on the imperial city, he showed his literary prowess as a scholar, and there were more than a dozen great scholars standing behind him.
The doubts began to disappear, and Li Moer's enthronement ceremony was completed in an instant.
Li Mo'er became the eleventh king of the Wen Dynasty, and his reign name was changed to Xingwen, which was the first year of Xingwen.
The first female emperor in the history of the Wen Dynasty successfully ascended the throne. This situation is the only one in the thousand-year history of the human race.
Li Mo'er, who ascended the throne, immediately announced the first decree, mobilizing the elite border troops and Shizong's disciples to speed up the war in southern Xinjiang.
In the court hall of the Wen Dynasty, the details of Feng Qi's case were announced, and the injustice of several families with cultural backgrounds was avenged. His descendants were also found to go directly to Gongyuan to study, and they were blessed for three generations.
Of course, there was also bloodshed among them. Some literati took off their official uniforms and returned to the countryside in anger, while others stubbornly resisted and were imprisoned. Even the officials did not dare to say whether they were right or not.
But all of this has nothing to do with Song Mu anymore.
Li Dong left the East Palace, and Song Mu, the prince's young master, was naturally of no use. After Song Mu returned from the imperial city that day, he was in a state of confusion for several days.
Song Mu deplored his master's death in vain, and also mourned Li Ao's helpless departure.
On that day in the square, the continuous reversals that Song Mu experienced finally completely crushed the last bit of idealism in Song Mu's mind.
It turns out that everything is just a political dispute, and I am still a pawn in it.
People's hearts are not as old as before, and the struggle for power made Song Muhan feel heartbroken.
And Li Ao's departure made Song Mu completely run out of ideas. Song Mu just looked at the article he had written. At this moment, he didn't know what his imagination would be like in the future.
I thought that with the help of Wen Dynasty, I could bring something different to this era, but now it seems that it is just a dream.
On this day, Song Mu learned that after Li Moer ascended the throne, the world was amnesty and the people of Chang'an were rejoicing. However, Song Mu poured himself a glass of wine in the courtyard, letting the drunkenness caused by the strong wine lead him into the abyss of mist.
"Husband, you can't do this anymore!"
Song Mu was about to get up and have a few more drinks, but at this time Gu Qingqing came out, took the wine cup away and refuted it.
Song Mu raised his head and looked at Gu Qingqing. At this moment, his face was just a little confused, but he didn't insist anymore.
Just sat on the chair and sighed deeply.
Gu Qingqing also seemed to know the sorrow and resentment in Song Mu's heart. Seeing Song Mu's depressed look at this moment, he couldn't bear it. After thinking for a moment, he spoke.
"Husband, if you really feel that Chang'an is not what you want now, then we will not stay here anymore. Our family will go back to the land south of the Yangtze River."
"Didn't you say that you would take me to find a pure place and live a life isolated from the world?"
After hearing this, Song Mu looked at Gu Qingqing and saw the unbearable expression on the other person's face, but at this moment, he really had this idea in his heart.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside.
Song Mu looked over, but it was Song Chengming who hurriedly ran in. At this moment, he held hands with Song Mu and said in a deep voice.
"Father, the Lord from the Qingtian Guard is here."
When Song Mu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but he still looked up and saw Li Tai walking in slowly, and he held his hand towards Song Mu.
"Master Song, Your Majesty has invited you."
Song Mu's expression paused when he heard this, and when he looked at the other party again, the expression on his face suddenly became serious. Seeing Song Mu's performance, Gu Qingqing next to him also flashed a bit of urgency on his face.
Gu Qingqing was about to say something, but she didn't expect that Song Mu had already stood up and was just talking to Li Tai.
"Song is not going. Mr. Li, please pass on a message to me. Maybe I will leave Chang'an in a few days."
Li Tai was stunned when he heard this, but immediately shook his head and said again.
"But this matter is still beyond your control. This time, His Majesty personally said that he wants to see you."
Song Mu raised his head to look at the other party and laughed softly.
"She wants to see me, how about meeting me?"
"I can't be her minister. We have different ways and will not work together."
After hearing this, Li Tai shook his head firmly. This time he just handed over to Song Mu, but Song Mu was unwilling to pay attention.
"Husband..."
Gu Qingqing opened her mouth at this moment, but hesitated.
Song Mu looked at each other, and the couple's eyes met. At this moment, Song Mu seemed to understand what the other party meant.
Nowadays, the court is full of blood and turmoil. I can sneer at it, but as a younger member of the family, I cannot do the same.
After a while, Song Mu let out a long sigh, and the literary energy on his body immediately started to circulate, and the smell of alcohol immediately disappeared from his body.
"Then go say goodbye."
Song Mu didn't bother to change his clothes. At this moment, he just put his hands behind his hands and stepped outside, following Li Tai towards the imperial city.
After passing through the familiar palace wall, Song Mu came to the imperial city again.
I haven't been here for many days, but nothing has changed here, but everything seems to have a strange feeling again.
After passing through the cloister and crossing the palace, Song Mu arrived in front of the Liangyi Palace. At this moment, his steps paused slightly.
After a moment of silence, Song Mu stepped forward and walked in with his head held high.
In the main hall, the golden walls were brilliant, and Song Mu immediately saw Li Mo'er, who was wearing a red robe.
The two people looked at each other, but there were countless complexities in their eyes.
