Because of this honor granted by the emperor, Yang Fan was a little surprised, but what he saw in Wu Zetian's eyes was a smile and kindness, and the occasional kindness of the female emperor, who had always been cold and majestic, made Yang Fan a little uncomfortable. The chamberlain quickly added a mat and a desk table to him, and Yang Fan sat down on the last seat.

Wan'er didn't look at him much, everyone in the banquet was full of spirits, and if she was not careful, she would show her feet. Since Yang Fan was appointed as the general of Qianqi, he can walk almost freely in the palace, and there are more opportunities to have a private tryst with Wan'er, and now his mentality is naturally not as good as the hunger and thirst that he has not seen for a long time.

However, Princess Taiping smiled at Yang Fan very generously, anyway, the scandal between her and Yang Fan is well known, and the only person who needs to avoid it is the concubine, and even if the martial concubine sees it at the moment, he will only pretend not to see it. The banquet lasted for about half an hour, and Wu Zetian put down his wine glass and slowly sat up straight.

Shangguan Fei, who was standing on the side, hurriedly waved his hand when he saw this, and the silk and bamboo string music suddenly stopped abruptly, and the dancers retreated. Everyone knew that the empress had something to say, and they all stopped and sat upright.

Wu Zetian sighed at first, and said softly: "I am already old. Sooner or later, this empire will be handed over to you. I hope that all the ministers and workers will still work together to support the imperial court in the future, and I hope that the Wu and Li families can live in harmony forever! ”

Wan'er said: "Everything will be as the saint wishes!" ”

Everyone said yes.

Wu Zetian nodded slowly, and glanced at everyone: "There are the princes of the Wu and Li families here today, my daughters and horses, and the prime ministers...... You will be like this in the future, share blessings and misfortunes, and jointly support the Great Zhou Jiangshan founded by Bao Zhen! ”

Everyone left their seats and saluted the emperor.

Wu Zetian happily raised his glass and said, "Come." Full Cup! ”

After everyone poured the wine and picked up the glass, Wu Zetian said angrily: "All things in the Great Zhou are renewed, the rivers and mountains are stable, just like the rising of the sun, in the future, as long as the princes and ministers follow the track set by me, they will be able to protect the Great Zhou Dynasty for thousands of years!" ”

"Do the Holy Commandment!"

Everyone responded violently, and Li Dan, the prime minister, suddenly stepped forward and said, "Mother Emperor, the sages have clouds." The security of the country will be the first to grow, and the crisis of the country will be the first to make merit. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty is prosperous and the four seas are peaceful, the position of the crown prince should be passed on to the eldest son of his mother, which is not appropriate. The four seas are disappointed.

Son and Shichiro are both mothers and emperors' own sons. Shichiro is a brother, and a son is a brother. The crown prince should be held by Shichiro. Shichiro is a filial friend, dignified and intelligent. He is the best candidate for the crown prince, and he is willing to resign as the crown prince, and ask the mother emperor to establish Shichiro as the crown prince, and be in the East Palace, with the unity of ten thousand years, and the heart of the four seas! ”

The news of Crown Prince Yi Li has long been spread. No one present was surprised, only Wu Sansi felt a little lost in his heart, although he had known it today, and now he heard it in person. Still can't help but be sad.

Li Xian naturally hurriedly left the table to resign, and the two brothers pushed me in front of the emperor, and staged a brother, friend and brother Gong for a while, and the prime ministers rushed forward and agreed with Yi Chu in unison. Wu Sansi and Wu Youji also stood in the middle of it, saying insincere words.

Wu Zetian nodded slowly, and said happily: "There are clouds, father's righteousness, mother's kindness, brother's friend, brother's respect, son's filial piety, and inner peace and outer success." My son is very relieved to be able to do this. If you are allowed to play, your brother will be the crown prince, and tomorrow you will announce the government and the opposition, and tell China and foreign countries! ”

Li Xian saw that his mother had spoken, so he stepped forward to accept the order, this time it was going to be more solemn, he knelt down in front of his mother and solemnly received the order. Wu Zetian said: "For the monarch, you should respect self-cultivation, be under the emperor, just judge things, be clear to observe the subtleties, and persevere, then the sky will change from self-defeat, and the spirit will be self-contained." You are the prince, you should learn the way of the king, in order to make great efforts and help the people! ”

Li Xian kowtowed and said, "Obey the teachings of the Mother Emperor!" ”

Wu Zetian said to the prime ministers: "You and other civil and military ministers are all auxiliary ministers, and you should be loyal and assist the king." The king has the beauty of being virtuous and admonishing, and the ministers have the loyalty of the auxiliary monarch, discussing the rise and fall of chaos, the gains and losses of the interests, so that the king understands the essentials, and can be a warning, so that the monarch is good and the country can be expected to prosper! ”

All the prime ministers, princes and even the two Zhang Ju knelt down to call their orders, because Wu Zetian opened his mouth to "wait for civil and military", and Yang Fan, the "martial artist", couldn't run, so he had to kneel and bow with the prime ministers.

As far as Yang Fan is concerned, this seemingly harmonious scene of the monarch and the minister is purely a play, and it is a play that has long known the ending, and it is very boring.

The ministers worked with an impassioned appearance, and cooperated with the emperor to complete this drama of establishing a prince, and the prime ministers expressed their support and approval, and there was no need to worry about any accidents when the court officially established the prince tomorrow, and Wu Zetian, who had long felt tired, returned to the inner palace.

As soon as the emperor left, how could all the courtiers still sit here to eat and drink, and all the princes, princesses and even the prime ministers dispersed. Yang Fan came out of the Xuanwu Gate, Ren Wei was already waiting there, and when he saw him come out, he said: "My subordinates have ordered me to go down, and the news will spread all over Luoyang tomorrow!" ”

Yang Fan smiled slightly, and then instructed: "The people know that it is not very useful, they want to pay attention to it, and if they don't want to pay attention to it, what does it have to do with him if you quarrel with him?" To let the people above know the news, the two are from famous families, and they are all eunuchs, so these people can really have an impact on them! ”

Ren Wei showed a smile in his eyes, nodded and said, "My subordinates understand!" The reason why they have to go from the bottom up is just that it is difficult for them to find the source. ”

The next day, a news that had long been known to the government and the opposition was announced to China and foreign countries: Li Xian, the king of Yili Luling, was the crown prince. The happiest person is probably Li Xinyu, the lord of Nghe An, but she is also the most unhappy.

I was happy because she had just been demoted to the county lord, and she was immediately promoted back to the county lord. Unhappily, the sisters have all been promoted to princesses, but she is the county lord, which makes the county lord of Ngee An, who has always liked to compare, very dissatisfied. But if she had just been punished and promoted directly to the princess, the emperor's lesson would inevitably become a daxiao dialect, and she had to accept the reality that she was one level lower than her sisters.

The change of the crown prince, because it is a well-known news, but everyone does not know when it will be realized, so the news of Li Dan's resignation from the crown prince and Li Xian's ascension to the crown prince did not cause much of a sensation in the government and the opposition, but it was a rumor about the Shu merchant Song Bazi and Long Jiu set of people entering Beijing to make two friends. began to spread with a clear eye.

Among the rumors spread by Yang Fan, Song Bazi, Long Jiutao and other Shu merchants were first portrayed as nouveau riche who were vulgar and unaccustomed to etiquette, which was very in line with the mentality of those who hated the rich; Immediately afterwards, they concocted many bad behaviors of fishing for meat and meat, lacking catties and pounds, and raising prices in the process of doing business, which was in line with the mentality of those high-ranking scholars who had always despised businessmen, and at the same time aroused the hostility of the common people who had been victimized by profiteers.

So, these people joined the spitting bandwagon. That's not all, there are also some words and small jokes about Song Bazi, Long Jiutao and others who "spoke" after entering Beijing to ridicule the Kyoto people's clan began to spread everywhere.

Of course, Song Bazi and the others had never said such a thing, but those people would not question who was standing next to them at that time and heard these words, and they could know so much about it. It was impossible for Song Bazi and his party to pull passers-by to explain one by one, and this basin was buttoned up. Song Bazi and others immediately became public enemies of Kyoto.

At that time, the geographical barriers were very serious, and Song Bazi's remarks of "regional discrimination" could easily arouse the common hatred of the locals. And they disdain the people of Kyoto who have a strong sense of superiority, is it tolerable or unbearable? For a time, Song Bazi and others became street rats. There are so many people shouting and beating that they don't dare to go out. Even people with some Shu accents don't dare to go out.

Follow. There is a vague mention of the news that they were introduced to the court banquet that day, and they were reprimanded by the emperor. In this little story, Song Bazi and others have become vulgar and uninformed hillbillies, how many jokes they have caused in the palace, and how ugly they are, have become a joke for the people of Kyoto to fight back against them.

And then. Under the inquiry of well-informed people, some well-informed people began to reveal a little bit of news, and it seemed that it was the descendant of the prime minister, the current Fengchen Lingzhang Gongzi, who led them into the palace, and some people mentioned it. It is said that these very tasteless hillbillies once gave Zhang Gongzi a golden cow, because Zhang Gongzi is a cow.

Sewage and ridicule began to slowly spread from Song Bazi and the others to the Zhang brothers.

At the beginning, although Song Bazi and others were quite angry about the gossip in the capital, they didn't take it too seriously, anyway, it didn't hinder the overall situation, so they had to comfort themselves with "the clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are self-turbid". But gradually they found that Zhang Tongxiu and other Zhang brothers began to alienate and snub them, no longer accepted their invitations, and often ate "closed-door soup" when they visited

They finally realized the seriousness of the problem, but it was too late to undo it. The Zhang brothers are the sons of high-ranking families, and now they are powerful and powerful, and money is just the icing on the cake for them, and it does not have much temptation, but prestige is what they want to have and maintain the most.

Now the whole incident is precisely formed by the huge public opinion, Song Bazi and others are alone in a foreign land, and there is no way to justify this overwhelming slander. They had now guessed that it was their identity that had been revealed, and that Hyunjong had done something in secret, but they never dreamed that Hyunjong would use such a method.

They tried their best to get close to the Zhang brothers at all costs, but before they could let this relationship play any role, they were squirted off by saliva.

"Don't slack off!"

Yang Fan heard Ren Wei's report, imagining the anxious appearance of Song Bazi and the others, and couldn't help laughing: "If they fail, they will inevitably find another way, and at this time, we must keep an eye on them!" I don't know exactly why they're here, their purpose must be their greatest weakness! ”

"My subordinates understand!"

Ren Wei had just agreed, when there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside, and before the footsteps reached the door, the old steward's nervous voice came: "Ah Lang! Something's wrong, there's something big!"

P: Ask for monthly passes and recommended tickets from all friends!
