Li Yu is just thinking about plotting to usurp the throne for the time being. Since this is one of the optional tasks given by the system, it is worth trying.

This thing sounds like it is not difficult. The emperor needs to use strong soldiers and horses to do it. This is how Guo Zuo of the Song Dynasty came to be. Emperor Taizu Chen Qiaoyi wore a yellow robe, lied about military information to gain military power, and then turned back and bullied the orphans.

Sons and widowed mothers, after taking over the world of Zhou Chai family, Li Yu's current identity is the ancestor of Gaoliang River Chariot God. Emperor Taizong is also unambiguous. The sound of candle shadow and ax forced the emperor's brother to death, and the lineage is in his

The branches have been passed down.

But this method is not suitable for Li Yu.

Li Yu's current identity is King Cao, Taiwei, and Jingnan Jiedu Envoy. At first glance, it sounds deceptive. In fact, it is just a false position for the three of them to receive a salary and enjoy the treatment of their level. They have no real power and are on guard against them everywhere.

The difficulty of this rebellion is simply overwhelming.

But fortunately, there is another way to conspire to usurp the throne, and it is clearly recorded in middle and high school history textbooks. Li Yu plans to try it if he has the opportunity in the future.

The ministers supported the new king, and the position was determined. There was no enthronement ceremony for the time being, but the title was confirmed.

The old emperor Daxing naturally wanted to keep vigil for Emperor Daxing. As the prince's younger brother, Li Yu was naturally among them.

When he first arrived, Li Yu didn't dare to say much. Fortunately, the system gave him some simple memories and he was able to recognize some familiar people. Li Yu imitated the appearance of his "brother" Yong Wang Zhao Hao, who was in front of him, and imitated his movements meticulously.

Time passed by in a hurry, and it was already dark in the blink of an eye. Too many candles were lit in the hall, illuminating the mourning hall.

Li Yu rubbed his sore knees and slowly moved his legs and feet.

"Fourth brother, don't move!" Upon seeing this, King Yong Zhao Hao frowned and warned in a low voice.

Li Yu didn't dare to answer, for fear that he would reveal some mistakes.

At this time, a eunuch with gray hair on his temples walked in from the side door of the hall with his head hanging down. He came behind Li Yu's "two brothers" and stretched out his hand to pull Zhao Hao.

"Your Highnesses, the Queen Mother summons your two Highnesses to go to Cining Hall to discuss matters." The eunuch's voice was low, and there was not much respect in his tone.

"Thank you, husband Liang." Zhao Hao snorted, obviously very dissatisfied with this eunuch, as if there was some grudge between the two.

Because he had been kneeling for too long, Zhao Hao's calves were numb. When he stood up, he staggered, but Li Yu's quick eyesight and quick hands helped him catch him.

"Fourth brother, follow me." Zhao Hao stood firm and pulled up Li Yu. The two brothers lowered their heads and followed the chamberlain named Liang slowly out of the hall.

The palace was already covered with prayer flags, and the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went were all wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning. Zhao Hao kept walking with his head bowed, very respectfully. Li Yu had no choice but to imitate him and follow behind him in a daze.

In the Cining Hall, the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao was dressed in plain clothes, drinking porridge leisurely. Beside her, Emperor Daxing, who was also dressed in plain clothes, was respectfully serving the empress. When the emperor died, even his biological son, Gao Taotao, was dressed in plain clothes.

The Queen Mother did not

She looked so sad. She supported the young master and became the regent. This is a heroine who plays with the world. Although she is over fifty-four years old and knows her destiny, Empress Dowager Gao still feels that she is young. It is the great exhibition

Good time for fists and kicks!

But before taking over as regent, there were two "worries" that had to be eliminated.

The two biological sons who were almost promoted to the throne by the New Party, King Yong Zhao Hao and King Cao Zhao Kai! These two sons have always been courteous and virtuous, and have great reputation in the New Party. Empress Dowager Gao has always opposed Wang

The reform and New Deal led by Anshi, although Wang Anshi was driven back to Jiangning a few years ago to eat himself, and it was said that he was ill and might not live long, the new party he left behind was still in charge of the government.

.

How can this work!? Empress Dowager Gao has always had great trust in the old party headed by Sima Guang. Now that the court is about to usher in the era of her regency, she must straighten out the government affairs, abolish the New Deal, and eliminate all the new parties that look down upon her.

Drive him out of the court.

First of all, he took action on his two sons! He pulled out the two flags of the New Party to intimidate the court!

But after all, he is his biological son. Although his feelings are weak, Empress Dowager Gao will never accept death or imprisonment. She just gives a warning and a beating to see the effect. Anyway, they are both wearing

They are in vain. As long as they drive away the new party that supports them, they will not cause any trouble. How can a son disobey his mother? Empress Dowager Gao is very confident.

Gu Wei

Empress Dowager Gao ate a bowl of porridge and waited for a while before her trusted eunuch Liang Weijian led her second son and fourth son into the Cining Hall.

Li Yu imitated Zhao Hao's movements and bowed down, bending down to salute the two of them: "My son, I pay my respects to my empress, and I pay my respects to my sister-in-law."

"Yes, no courtesy." Empress Dowager Gao nodded softly: "Come here, give the second brother and fourth brother a seat, and bring some rice porridge and cakes."

Liang Weijian took two spoons as he was told, and the palace maids went down to get some food and put them on the table one by one.

"Thank you, empress."

When he sat down, Li Yu raised his eyes and looked at his biological mother. Although her face was slightly wrinkled, she was still radiant. Her face looked rich and her face was calm. She was expressionless when she spoke.

There is no joy or anger.

"Second brother, fourth brother, you have been kneeling all day. Maybe you are hungry. Come and have a meal with me."

After the food was served, Empress Dowager Gao waved her hand to signal the palace maids and eunuchs to leave. She whispered to the queen with her daughter-in-law, gave a slight salute to the queen, and left the Cining Palace. Only mother and son were left in the palace. Empress Dowager Gao smiled slightly.

With a smile, he pushed the pastry forward and said to the two of them.

"Thank you, empress."

Li Yu was afraid of showing cowardice, and he was indeed hungry, but he did not dare to move rashly. He kept his mouth shut and observed and studied Zhao Hao's actions.

Only when Zhao Hao thanked him and started to drink porridge from his bowl did Li Yu dare to take action.

"Second brother, fourth brother, I called you here today for no other reason than that I have something to say."

"Listen to the Holy Instructions of the Empress." Zhao Hao put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, stood up quickly, bowed slightly, and behaved respectfully. Li Yu also followed suit, waiting to hear what "mother" said.

"Today the emperor has a grand ceremony, and the crown prince ascends the throne in front of everyone's expectations. The position has been confirmed, so you two should not have any unreasonable thoughts." There are only three mother and son in the palace, and there are no other people. Empress Dowager Gao does not need to make insinuations, but

A direct warning.

"Don't dare!" they both said in "fear" at the same time.

"You two have a reputation for being virtuous, so you should study in peace in the palace and don't come out to show off anymore." Empress Dowager Gao said in a stern tone: "Especially Cai Que, Xing Shu and their ilk, who pretend to be reforming to gain strength, but are actually treacherous.

You must not interact with such a villain!"

"Yes, I have recorded it." Li Yu nodded respectfully. This is easy to understand. He just told us not to play with the New Party. Li Yu checked the information and found that although Cai Que and his ilk are indeed treacherous villains,

He is also a supporter of the new party.

"After the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, I am going to recall Sima Gong, Su Xueshi and other knowledgeable people. You can seek advice from them."

"Yes, please keep this in mind."

Li Yu's mind raced and he quickly thought of countermeasures. The guy who smashed the vat and Mr. Dongpo were going back to the court. The court was about to start a struggle between the old and new parties. The new party that supported the reform would be wiped out, dismissed from office or demoted.

Beijing.

Time waits for no one. I have to find a way to escape. It is best to go out of Beijing. Anyway, I can't die mysteriously three years later like in history!

Li Yu definitely doesn’t believe it if there is no ghost here!
