Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting in the Capital Chapter 72, Boiling Chang'an
After Li Ren left, Emperor Li Chongsheng fell on the imperial bed, feeling unspeakable.
I will endure it with you again and again, and I dare to be rebellious today!
How did Empress Wang, who was gentle and quiet in the past, give birth to this playboy?
However, after thinking about it carefully, Li Ren's words are not completely unreasonable. Have you been a little harsh on him in the past few decades?
Because he gave him the title of the crown prince too early and the authority of the crown prince too early, did he unconsciously have some precautions against him?
The world is my own world, and all the power is my own. No one is allowed to share it with me, and even my own son cannot!
I love all the princes, especially the third, fourth, eighth and fourteenth. I give them rewards every day and give them almost whatever they want. But from childhood to adulthood, I am not only extremely cold to the prince who is second, but also guard against him everywhere.
As I went against the norm, I had to give the title of Prince more than the title of Prince, and added seven king pearls to King Zhao and King Wei, King Wei, and almost elevated the authority of these three princes to the level of being in line with the prince. Moreover, I also gave the King Wei and King Jin, the power to govern various ministries, which is a precedent that has not been seen in previous dynasties. Isn’t this aspiration to divide and weaken the prince’s power and make him unable to compete with him from beginning to end?
Is it true that although he has given him supreme authority since he was a child, he has not given him the care of a father? So he has lost both the care of his mother and the mercy of his father since he was a child. So he has been worried and uneasy in his heart, and has also developed his perverted, quirky and timid personality?
Knead! It’s too late to say anything now! Li Chongsheng couldn’t help but sigh and made his decision helplessly.
On the third day of the 19th year of Kangyuan, the emperor issued an edict to depose the crown prince Li Ren as a commoner. In addition to counting the faults of the crown prince for decades, such as violent, arrogant and arbitrary actions, he also denounced him as a private friend of the Left Martial Guard, Yin Tu controlled the imperial guards, had resentment and misconduct, and wanted to wait for the extraordinary time and immediately planned to rebel.
Along with the edict of the dethronement of the crown prince, another emperor's edict was deprived of all official positions and titles by Li Junxian, the general of the Left Wuwei Guard, and was arrested in the Qingyi Guard prison, waiting for trial and conviction.
Next, the prince's party was naturally suppressed
On the fourth day of the Yuan Dynasty, the emperor issued a series of orders to demote the Minister of Personnel Bi Songyun to the Sima of Jiangzhou; demote the Minister of Justice Wang Qingquan to the Prefecture of Luzhou; demote the Palace Censor Qian Jing to the Prefecture of Lujiang; and demote the demoted persons, including the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the Observer of the Censor of Lujiang;
Since Li Ren was also in charge of the position of Shangshu Ling of the East Shaanxi Road, the emperor abolished the establishment of the Taiwan, and demoted the officials including the left and right Pushe of the Xingtai, and each of them was demoted to recruit them.
As the crown prince was deposed and implicated and demoted, there were more than twenty officials in front of him! For a moment, the government and the country were shocked, and both China and foreign countries were shocked.
There are four generals on the frontier. It is said that their friendship with the prince is extraordinary. Not only did the emperor not demote and punish him, he also ordered the eunuch to go there in person and read the emperor's imperial edict publicly to express his consolation.
After the crown prince Li Ren was demoted to a commoner, he immediately set off and moved to Luzhou Prefecture to choose a land and enclose the ban. He was not allowed to go out for a lifetime. The emperor was very kind to Li Ren. Although he scolded him in the edict, he actually ordered people to treat Li Ren well along the way and ordered Shen Huan to send a capable general in the Qingyiwei to protect him. Li Chongsheng also called Wang Qingquan to the palace and personally met him. In addition to commending Wang Qingquan for ten years as an official in the Ministry of Justice, he was especially reminded that after taking office in Luzhou, he should take good care of Li Ren and choose a quiet place for Li Ren to live in the whole family. He must be considerate. Wang Qingquan was kneeling in front of the imperial guards and crying, and vowed to protect Li Ren and not to suffer the rest of his life.
In the whole city of Chang'an, in January of the New Year, all households should be happy and thousands of families celebrated together, but at this time, they were all unintentional to celebrate the festival. On the surface, ordinary people dare not talk about the government affairs, but secretly, these Chang'an people couldn't help but ask around and talk endlessly.
During the seventy years of Kangyuan prosperity, the emperor is old, the prince is deposed, the new crown prince has not been established, and the emperor is unhesitant. For a moment, the court situation is turbulent and people are panicked. The situation in Chang'an, the capital has never been so chaotic.
Three consecutive days, all officials begged the emperor to establish a new crown prince as soon as possible, and flew into the palace like snowflakes and sent to the emperor's imperial case, but the emperor stayed at the end of the palace.
The prince, prime minister and important officials ran into the Daming Palace one by one to meet the emperor and inquire about his illness, but they were all blocked by Gao Liangshi, the chief supervisor of the inner court.
