Chapter 2231 Empress Wei and her daughter poisoned Li Xian to death. Is it true or false?

Remember in one second【】

When it comes to the fact that Wu Zetian finally listened to Di Renjie's suggestion and restored Li Xian, the king of Luling, as the crown prince, there is a story that has to be told, and that is the famous story of Di Renjie's "Interpretation of Dreams and Restoration of the Tang Dynasty".

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

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

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

There are two theories about this dream.

First, Wu Zetian dreamed of playing Shuanglu, but could never win.

Di Renjie interpreted his dream: "The two continents are invincible because there is no son. This is God's will to warn your majesty. The prince is the foundation of the world. If the foundation moves, the world will be in danger."

Secondly, Wu Zetian dreamed of a big parrot with both wings broken off.

Di Renjie interpreted his dream: "Wu is your majesty's surname, and the two wings refer to the two sons. Your majesty now only has two sons, Li Xian, king of Luling, and Li Dan, king of prime minister. As long as you have two sons, the two wings will be able to cheer up."

After interpreting the dream, Di Renjie continued: "Emperor Taizong weathered the wind and rain, braved the arrows, and finally pacified the world and passed it on to his descendants. The late emperor entrusted his two sons to your majesty, but now your majesty wants to hand over the world to a foreign surname? Besides, who is the aunt, nephew, or mother and son? The relationship is closer? Your Majesty makes your son the prince, and he can enjoy the ancestral temple after a long life. If you make a nephew, I have never heard of anyone giving the aunt the ancestral temple? "

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

Di Renjie said: "The king is at home all over the world, and all the affairs of the world are his family's business. The king is the head of state, and the ministers are the limbs, just like a whole body. Besides, I am appointed as the prime minister, how can I ignore it?"

Although Wu Zetian did not immediately listen to Di Renjie's suggestion and restore Li Xian to the throne, Di Renjie's words of interpretation of the dream were always in Wu Zetian's mind.

Later, he finally took Li Xian back to Luoyang, restored him to the throne of prince, and 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, Wu Zetian fell seriously ill. Zhang Jianzhi, Huan Yanfan, Jinghui and others took the opportunity to launch a coup and forced the seriously ill Wu Zetian to abdicate.

Wu Zetian was finally passed down to Prince Li Xian.

Li Xian ascended the throne for the second time as Emperor Zhongzong of Tang Dynasty.

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 Li Xian's death, there are historical records that he died at the hands of Empress Wei and Princess Anle, who poisoned him to death.

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

The theory that Li Xian was poisoned by Empress Wei and Princess Anle is relatively common.

However, is this really the case? In fact, it is controversial.

First, in the existing history books, the first mention of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian being murdered by Empress Wei was in a coup against Empress Wei more than half a month after Li Xian's death, with obvious military mobilization overtones. Just eighteen days after Zhongzong's death, Princess Taiping and Li Longji jointly launched a coup. At that time, a general who was involved in the coup said to the soldiers: "Queen Wei poisoned the late Emperor. We will kill Queen Wei today to avenge the late Emperor!"

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

Second, the "Old Book of Tang", which completely treats Princess Anle as a negative teaching material, mentions many details about her wanting to be the crown princess, fixing Kunchi, etc., but it does not mention at all that she is still He poisoned Zhongzong.

Obviously, such a major omission is not because the author of "Old Book of Tang" protected Princess Anle. It can only be said that at that time, people did not recognize the poisoning of Princess Anle.

Third, both Empress Wei and Princess Anle were buried with ceremonial ceremony after their deaths. More than half a month after the death of Tang Zhongzong, Queen Wei and Princess Anle also died in the coup. Although the slogan of the coup was that the two of them were poisoned and deserved death, they were buried with ceremony shortly after the coup ended. If they really poisoned Zhongzong, how could they recognize their identities and bury them with ceremony?

Fourth, Queen Wei and Princess Anle had no practical need to poison Zhongzong at that time. They were not fully prepared at the time. If Tang Zhongzong was here, they could rely on the big tree to further develop their power under his protection. Wait until the power develops to a large enough level, then attack Tang Zhongzong. This is common sense.

From this point of view, the record that Empress Wei's mother and daughter jumped over the wall and poisoned Tang Zhongzong is not completely credible. It was most likely a lie by the victor at the time to find enough reasons for his coup.

It was probably Li Longji and Princess Taiping who did it.

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

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

Of course, there are also people who are considered to have longevity, such as Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

Generally speaking, it is very likely that Empress Wei and her daughter poisoned Zhongzong Li Xian to death, which is an eternal injustice.

Of course, this is just speculation.

As for the true truth of the matter, it may be an eternal mystery.

Of course, it is definitely true that Empress Wei and Princess Anle both want to be emperors. There is also Princess Taiping, the daughter of Wu Zetian, who also wants to be emperor.

.

After the death of Zhongzong Li Xian, Ruizhong Li Dan came to the throne, and Princess Taiping began to compete with Li Longji for the throne.

But in the end it was Li Longji who had the last laugh.

It must be said that after Wu Zetian successfully became emperor, many ambitious women were eager to become the second Wu Zetian.

It's just that easy to become the second Wu Zetian.

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

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

This issue is a matter of opinion, so I will not discuss it for now. The most important thing now is the final contest between Di Renjie and Jin Mulan. What will it be like?

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

After figuring out the enemy's movements, Di Renjie took the lead and ordered the four gates to be closed and the streets to be banned. They falsely claimed that the Turkic army had arrived nearby, all trading shops were closed, and pedestrians returned home. Those who violated the order were punished as spies.

Di Renjie's action instantly disrupted the enemy's plan. Because the four gates of Youzhou City were closed and the streets were banned, they could no longer communicate secretly.

The enemies lost contact with each other, which caused the enemies' latest secret contact point, the agents in the Tianbaoyin, to panic.

Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
