Chapter 192: The Heavenly King's Rebellion If Li Zhen knew what they thought, he would definitely cry out for injustice, he was indeed not strong in front of Wu Meiniang, but that was because it was a family matter, because Wu Meiniang was in charge of family affairs, even Li Zhen could not easily interfere with this, so he was slightly weak.
But if it is put on official affairs, Li Zhen will not listen to Wu Meiniang's opinion, but once Wu Meiniang reveals that she wants to meddle in political affairs, Li Zhen will definitely stop it as soon as possible and be vigilant against Wu Meiniang - you must know that this is a strange woman whose talent is no less than that of the emperor, and she is the only woman in history who sits on the throne with the body of a daughter.
And the reason why Wu Meiniang was born with such great ambition in the later period was because Li Zhi's health became more and more poor in the later period, and even his eyes had problems, so he had to let Wu Meiniang handle some affairs for him, but later Li Zhi's health became worse and worse, and Wu Meiniang dealt with more and more things, and the power of control became bigger and bigger, so that he monopolized the dynasty and the power of the world, and finally bred ambition, and after Li Zhi's death, he abolished his two sons one after another, and sat on the throne himself.
In other words, Wu Meiniang's ambition was not there from the beginning, but was slowly cultivated by the environment, and what made Li Zhen feel fortunate was that Wu Meiniang had no intention of interfering in government affairs since she married him, which also made Li Zhen breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise the relationship between the two who have known each other for 20 years, Li Zhen really doesn't know how to treat Wu Meiniang - it can't be abolished, right?
Li Zhen is really a little reluctant.
And the composition of Li Zhen's harem is also very messy, and it has always been relying on Wu Meiniang to deter it, so there is no problem, once there is no Wu Meiniang, the world will definitely be in chaos.
Fortunately, fortunately, at present, Wu Meiniang may really be used to her current identity and has no intention of jumping out.
"Forget it, you're also concerned about chaos, let's go back."
Looking at Wu Meiniang, Li Zhen didn't say much, just beckoned everyone to go back together.
"Yes."
Then everyone turned around in a pretended manner.
After Li Zhao's trouble, the originally prepared welcome ceremony naturally could not be carried out, and everyone was not in the mood to hold it, so they just let everyone hastily step over the brazier and remove the bad luck on their bodies. …… Li Zhao didn't escape after all, and after Li Zhen picked them up and washed the dust, he was immediately caught by the big demon king Wu Meiniang and slapped his ass a few times, and then was punished for thinking about it.
Seeing the little cute baby with tears and choking and grievances, Li Zhen's heart melted.
It's just about this kind of backyard thing, one of them is Wu Meiniang's decision, although Li Zhen has the heart to plead, but Wu Meiniang's eyes turned sideways, he immediately wilted, and hurriedly pretended to go to deal with official business - he completely forgot that he had delegated all the official duties, and there was no official business on the table.
Fortunately, a message came from Chang'an City, which made everyone change the topic, and no one cared about Li Zhao's affairs - but for Li Zhen, he would rather Li Zhao be punished for three days than see this message anyway.
Because the news from Chang'an is that the emperor is critically ill, and the information about the king of Jin is passed on - that's right, the so-called king of heaven is Li Zhi, who used to chase and play behind Li Zhen's ass when he was a child, and now he has grown up, you must know that the age difference between Li Zhen and Li Zhi is only one year old, so the relationship is the best, almost all day long, tired of being together, very intimate, no matter who gets something good, will want to give another person.
It's just that the heavenly family has no family affection, and as she grows older, Li Zhen becomes more and more dazzling, almost overshadowing the demeanor of all the brothers, and naturally becomes the target of public criticism and a thorn in the side of all the brothers.
Although Li Zhen has tried his best to maintain the brotherly relationship, it is still only the result of maintaining a superficial brotherhood, but anyone who has a little idea about that position will regard Li Zhen as the biggest enemy - on the contrary, those who are not interested in the throne, or who are destined not to sit on the throne, such as Li Su and Li You, and the young Li Mingli Jian and Li Zhen have a good relationship.
It's just that among these people who have a good relationship, there is obviously no Li Zhi, in addition to his interest in the throne, another reason is that he feels that no matter his background (both of their mothers are queens, they are both sisters-in-law) or talent, he is not much worse than Li Zhen, but he was completely overshadowed by Li Zhen......
He has become a little transparent in the eyes of everyone, unless he is a person who is particularly familiar with the royal family, even if he walks out, no one will recognize him.
How can Li Zhi endure this?
You must know that Li Zhi seems to have a gentle and filial personality, but in fact, he is also black-bellied - Li Shimin has a total of fourteen sons, in addition to him and Jiang Wang Li Fu, a total of twelve died unexpectedly, and three of these twelve died early, and six of the remaining nine died during his reign (Li Ke, Li Tai, Li Su, Li Yun, Li Fu, Li Ming), of which in addition to Li Tai and Li Fu are considered good deaths, the causes of death of the remaining four are all related to him, and all of them are related to rebellion, It can be seen that he is not a good thing.
So in order to compete for the throne for Li Zhen, Li Zhi has begun to lay out since a few years ago, and incarnated as the king of heaven to attract all forces, and now he has won most of the families, and has won the support of Buddhism and Confucianism, and feels that the forces under his command are not inferior to Li Zhen, plus Li Zhen is about to return to Chang'an, so he immediately launched a coup d'état and imprisoned Li Shimin in the palace.
In addition, he also carried out a major purge of the court, purging almost all Li Zhen's supporters - fortunately, he has not yet reached the point of madness, most of Li Zhen's supporters in the court are respected old courtiers, even if Li Zhi has usurped the throne, but he does not dare to take them lightly, otherwise with the prestige of these old courtiers, Li Zhi will not say that he has just usurped the throne, even if he has already secured the throne, if he really wants to kill these old ministers, he will soon be overthrown by the people.
Therefore, even Li Zhi did not dare to touch these old ministers, but dismissed them all and imprisoned them, including Li Shimin, but the news announced to the outside world said that the emperor was seriously ill and was rumored to be the king of Jin, which was also a blessing in misfortune.
