Chapter 2231 Empress Wei's mother and daughter poisoned Li Xian, is it true or false?

When it comes to Wu Zetian finally listening to Di Renjie's suggestion to restore the king of Luling Li Xian as the crown prince, there is a story that has to be told, that is the story of the famous Di Renjie "resolving the dream and restoring the Tang Dynasty".

Wu Zetian wanted to make his nephew Wu Sansi the crown prince, and asked the ministers for their opinions. Di Renjie said that if he wanted to establish a crown prince, it would be the King of Luling.

Wu Zetian was very unhappy at the time, and naturally did not accept Di Renjie's opinion.

However, Wu Zetian had a strange dream and was puzzled, so he asked Di Renjie to interpret the dream.

There are two theories about this dream.

First, Wu Zetian dreamed that he would go to Shuanglu (an ancient board game), but he could never win.

Di Renjie explained the dream and said: "The reason for the invincibility between the two continents is that there is no child. This is God's will to warn His Majesty. The prince is the foundation of the world. If the foundation moves, the world will be in danger."

Second, Wu Zetian dreamed of a large parrot with both wings broken.

Di Renjie explained the dream and said, "Wu is His Majesty's surname, and the two wings refer to the second son. His Majesty now only has two sons, Li Xian, King of Luling, and Li Dan, the King of Xiang.

After deciphering the dream, Di Renjie said again: "Emperor Taizong fought the wind and the rain, and personally took the arrows and stones, and only then did he settle the world and pass it on to his descendants. The first emperor entrusted his two sons to His Majesty, but now His Majesty wants to hand over the world to a foreign surname? Besides, who is the aunt and nephew? The relationship is closer? Your Majesty has made his son the crown prince, and he will be able to enjoy the Taimiao after the long-lived thousand years. If you have a nephew, have you never heard of an aunt who has an ancestral temple?"

Wu Zetian was very unhappy about this and said, "This is my family business, and you should not interfere."

Di Renjie said, "The king is his family, and the affairs of the world are his Majesty's family affairs. The king is the head of state, and the subjects are the limbs, like a whole. Besides, the ministers are prime ministers, how can they not care?"

Although Wu Zetian did not immediately listen to Di Renjie's suggestion to restore Li Xian as the crown prince, Di Renjie's words to explain the dream were always in Wu Zetian's heart.

Later, Li Xian was finally taken back to Luoyang, and he was reinstated as the crown prince. He also said to Di Renjie, "I will return the crown prince to you now."

The restoration of Prince Li Xian laid the foundation for Zhang Jianzhi, Huan Yanfan, Jinghui and others to launch the Shenlong coup to restore the Tang Dynasty while Wu Zetian was seriously ill.

In 705 AD, when Wu Zetian was seriously ill, Zhang Jianzhi, Huan Yanfan, Jinghui and others took the opportunity to stage a coup and force the seriously ill Wu Zetian to abdicate.

Wu Zetian was finally passed on to the crown prince Li Xian, and Li Xian ascended the throne for the second time as Tang Zhongzong.

However, after Li Xian ascended the throne for the second time, he only served as emperor for five years, and died when he was fifty-five years old.

Regarding the death of Li Xian, there are historical records that he died at the hands of Empress Wei and Princess Anle, who were poisoned to death by the two.

The reason why the two poisoned Li Xian was because Empress Wei wanted to be the emperor and the second Wu Zetian. Princess Anle wanted to be the crown princess and later inherit the throne of Empress Wei.

It is quite common to say that Li Xian was poisoned by Empress Wei and Princess Anle.

However, is this really the case? Actually it is controversial.

First, in the existing history books, the first mention of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian's murder by Empress Wei was in a coup against Empress Wei more than half a month after Li Xian's death, with obvious military mobilization. Just eighteen days after Zhongzong's death, Princess Taiping and Li Longji jointly launched a coup. At that time, a general in the coup d'etat said to the soldiers: "Queen Wei poisoned the late emperor, we are going to kill Queen Wei today to avenge the late emperor!"

Obviously, saying that Empress Wei poisoned Zhongzong was just to find a sufficient reason for the coup d'état, and not enough to serve as a basis for understanding the facts.

Second, in the Old Book of Tang, which completely treats Princess Anle as a negative teaching material, it mentions many details about her wanting to be a concubine, cultivating Ding Kunchi, etc., but it does not mention that she still Poisoned Zhongzong.

Obviously, such a major omission is by no means because the author of the "Old Tang Book" protected Princess Anle. It can only be said that people did not approve the poisoning of Princess Anle at that time.

Third, Empress Wei and Princess Anle were reburied with rituals after their death. More than half a month after Tang Zhongzong's death, Empress Wei and Princess Anle also died in a coup. Although the flag of the coup was that the two of them were poisoned to death, the two of them were reburied with rites shortly after the coup was over. If they really poisoned Zhongzong, how could they still recognize their identities and be reburied with rites?

Fourth, Empress Wei and Princess Anle did not have the realistic need to poison Zhongzong at that time. Their preparations at that time were still very inadequate. If Tang Zhongzong was there, they could still rely on the big tree and further develop their power under his protection. When the forces develop enough, they will attack Tang Zhongzong. This is normal.

From this point of view, the record that Empress Wei's mother and daughter jumped over the wall and poisoned Tang Zhongzong is not entirely credible. It is very likely that the victors lied at that time to find enough reasons for their own coup d'etat.

It is estimated that Li Longji and Princess Taiping made it.

And Li Xian's real cause of death should be death of disease. As we all know, the Li Tang family has a history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular genetic diseases. Tang Gaozu, Tang Taizong, Empress Changsun, and Tang Gaozong all suffered from "qi disease" and "wind disease", which all referred to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in ancient times.

Therefore, most of the emperors of the Li Tang Dynasty did not live long, and it was normal for Li Xian to die at the age of fifty-five.

Of course, there are also longevity, such as Tang Xuanzong Li Longji.

In general, it is very likely that Empress Wei's mother and daughter poisoned Zhongzong Li Xian to be a case of injustice through the ages.

Of course, this is just speculation.

As for the real truth of the matter, it may be a permanent mystery.

Of course, Empress Wei and Princess Anle both want to be emperors, which must be true, and Princess Taiping, the daughter of Wu Zetian, also wants to be emperors.

After Zhongzong Li Xian died, Ruizong Li Dan ascended the throne, and Princess Taiping began to compete with Li Longji for the throne.

But in the end, Li Longji had the last laugh.

I have to say that after Wu Zetian successfully became the emperor, many ambitious women were eager to become the second Wu Zetian.

Just wanting to become the second Wu Zetian is so easy.

As for "Detective Di Renjie", Li Qingxia, the master of Yiyang County who also wants to be the emperor, is a fictional character in "Detective Di Renjie", and there is no such character in history.

Thinking that Empress Wei, Princess Anle, and Princess Taiping all want to be emperors, fans who are familiar with history can't help but sigh, is it really that good to be an emperor?

There are different opinions on this issue, so I will not discuss it for the time being. The most important thing now is the final battle between Di Renjie and Jin Mulan. What kind of situation will it be like?

Book fans are looking forward to it, keep reading below.

After figuring out the enemy's movements, Di Renjie took the lead in taking action, ordering the closure of four doors and the closure of the city and the streets. It is falsely claimed that the Turkic army has arrived nearby, all trading shops will be closed, pedestrians will return home, and those who violate the order will be punished as spies.

This action of Di Renjie instantly disrupted the enemy's plan, because the four gates of Youzhou City were closed and the streets were closed, so they could no longer communicate in secret.

The enemy lost contact with each other, which made the enemy's latest secret contact point, the inner responders in Tianbao Silver, suddenly panic.
