Facing her sister's ridicule, she accidentally poked a knife at Li Wei's heart, but she had already let it go, so she didn't feel so painful.
"It's you, it's you who said those things he said here that day, that's why so many rumors and rumors came out?"
Li Xing was stunned for a moment before he said, "Do you blame me? Even though I am angry, I still know what I can do and what I can't do. What good is it for me to talk casually? In your eyes, the queen mother, is your sister just like that?"
Li Xing's words clearly pierced Li Wei, and she said coldly: "Well, it doesn't matter who it is."
The two sisters added a lot of displeasure in their hearts for the man.
The throne was pending, Li Wei still wanted to ask Zhao Qian privately, as long as he let go, then she would break through all the difficulties and obstacles and issue a decree to declare him emperor.
Zhao Qian was summoned to meet in the afternoon of the next day, and the location was still selected in the South Study Room. The doors and windows were wide open, and many court ladies and eunuchs stood outside.
The two faced each other again, and Li Wei sat in the east position, slightly tilted his head. Sunlight passed through the window and poured on her moon-white plain noodles. The wind fluttered all over the courtyard, and a group of catkins blew through the window and lightly fell on her shoulders.
There was a needle falling in the room, and Zhao Qian sat opposite her. At this time, the two had their own thoughts.
"I wonder if the Queen Mother summoned the ministers, what is the matter for discussion?"
Li Wei naturally said: "The throne is pending, and the regent has to be elected by everyone. For the future of Da Qi, I want to ask the regent what he wants. If you are willing to accept the opinions of the subjects, I can issue the will right now."
"What does the Queen Mother want the minister to do?"
"I asked what you meant, why did you ask me back?"
"Well, I will tell you clearly. I don't want to!"
"Why not? Sitting on the world and becoming the lord of the peoples is a decision of fate. Why do you not want to fall into the head of the regent?"
"Unless you can be my queen."
"Nonsense, this is impossible." Li Weidang was annoyed.
"If I were an emperor, I would definitely lose you. What's the point of not being able to be with you. I don't want to be a lonely person, let alone a lonely life."
"Da Qi cannot be ruined in our hands."
"Daqi will not be ruined in our hands. Enjoying the country for more than two hundred years, it is easy to end it."
This conversation was fruitless and meaningless. She didn't understand what Zhao Qian wanted to do, but she had understood it a long time ago. Between her and Zhao Qian, there will be no results. That's good. Before she completely fell in love with him, the flower had withered early. Although it was a pity, Li Wei was still full of warmth in the face of his sincere maintenance.
At the meeting on the next day, Li Wei showed up. But she was sitting behind a screen, and in front of her stood Wei Tai, the chief of Chongqing Palace.
She has been the queen mother for so long, and this is the second time she has accepted Baiguan's bow.
The main purpose of her appearance was to choose who to be the new ruler. The courtiers worked in their own right, and they all spoke for the people they recommended.
The one who mentioned the most was naturally Zhao Qian, and of course there were many oppositions. In addition to Zhao Qian, Zhao Ding's voice was also very high. In addition to these two people, there were also Fushen and Fu Kang.
At the moment, it is noisy and noisy for the Baozi generation to succeed to the throne, or the Fuzi generation to succeed, which makes Li Wei a headache.
After the meeting, Li Wei summoned the cabinet again. The old foxes in the cabinet are not much the same as the courtiers. No matter who is the new monarch, their cabinets are the same as the ministers.
However, when Li Wei consulted Du Yu’s meaning, Du Yu said:
The old minister’s personal meaning is still inclined to choose one from the Fu Zi generation. It's so suitable. Otherwise, it won't be so nice to say that the uncle will the throne from the nephew."
"I understand what Master Shoufu meant, and I will consider it carefully."
It seems that the cabinet does not like Zhao Qian nor Zhao Ding. The two princes of the Fu Zi generation are very young and need to serve for several years. These old foxes are in power, so how can they easily divide their power. No wonder it was a group of old foxes.
Li Wei naturally also summoned Min Wang Zhao Ding, and Zhao Ding's performance was even colder than Zhao Qian.
"Weichen has been in southern Fujian all these years, and he has no talent to learn to be an adult. Please think twice about the Queen Mother."
Zhao Ding's ambitions are not big, he can stay on one side and he doesn't want to sit on the world.
The Bao Zi generation all took the initiative to give in, and the rest is to choose one from the Fu Zi generation. It becomes a lot easier if you choose one of Fushen and Fu Kang.
In the end, Li Wei made his own choice and initially decided Fushen. He also consulted the courtiers and clan about this choice. The clan had nothing to say, and the courtiers seemed unwilling to this choice.
The next day, Li Wei issued her first decree as the queen mother, and declared that the emperor's fourth son Zhao Fushen succeeded to the throne. At the same time, she was appointed her biological mother as the queen mother. Then she gave the second order, which was her last decree as the empress dowager, giving the Emperor Daxing Fuguang the posthumous title of Emperor Zhuang Yi and the temple title of Wen Zong.
When the will came down, Princess Ning just didn't believe it, thinking it must be the regent, but she did not expect it to fall on her head.
The people in the palace all congratulated Tony Ning.
Taifei Ning was overjoyed.
Two queen mothers appeared in the deep palace for a while. Li Wei was the pro-appointment of Emperor Chengzong and the foster mother of Emperor Wenzong. Her status was respected. However, Taifei Ning was the birth mother of the emperor, and it was natural to call the queen mother.
After Fushen inherited the throne, the first thing was to give the two queen mothers an emblem. Respect Li Wei as the Queen Mother Rongxian, and respect the birth mother Tao as the Queen Mother Rongci. Li Wei was honored by Chengzong.
The problem of the throne who had been in trouble for several months was finally solved satisfactorily.
After everything was settled, Li Wei took a sedan chair and went to the Palace of Shouhuang. Go to Fuguang to have a drink before the spirit to comfort his spirit.
"Emperor, the queen is useless. She failed to protect you and caused people to be murdered. If there is an afterlife, the queen hopes that you can be reborn in an ordinary family, be a happy child, and live a peaceful life."
Speaking of sadness, I couldn't help crying.
If Fu Guang was born in an ordinary family and loved by his parents, with his cleverness and good study, he would be able to live a stable life for at least a lifetime, and he would fall into this palace even though he had devoted himself to the empress’s belly, he also worked for a year. The emperor of China had a rough fate, he was only seven years old, and he hurriedly finished his life. It is really frustrating.
Fu Guang's early death was a hurdle that Li Wei could not get through in her life. She fell into deep self-blame. Obviously, she had come over again, but she still couldn't save the situation.
