Five hundred and thirtieth eight chapters aftermath work
Since Li Chongmao's death, Li Jun's attitude has been neither salty nor indifferent, as if he deliberately kept a distance from Li Longji.
Could it be that Li Jun still wants to adopt a gentle strategy to save the baby's life?
If this happens, it is certain that he will regret it in the future. At that time, when he ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he will have to take action to solve the disaster himself.
A thought suddenly came across Li Longji's mind.
You forgot that they are brothers, and you are an outsider and a competitor.
He called out a secretly, and then recalled Li Jun's eyes and expressions, which completely confirmed this idea.
The prince is already suspicious of him.
Hey hey hey, it’s because it’s too sharp.
Li Longji did not review his mistakes, but only attributed his extraordinary performance this time to his excellent performance and was outstanding.
According to the general way of handling, since Li Xian died suddenly, he had never expected that he would die in this way. Therefore, as the crown prince, Li Jun must perform the emperor's duties in advance and handle the government affairs. As for the formal throne ceremony, it can only be postponed.
Li Jun is not worried about the government affairs. Since Li Xian was seriously ill last time, he has entrusted all the government affairs to him. Now he is just a change of name and continues to deal with it.
When the old ministers learned of Li Xian's death, they were shocked at first, and then they almost jumped to the East Palace.
Including the Minister of State Huan Yanfan, the Secretary of State Yuan Shuji and others, they surrounded Li Jun, which was completely different from Li Jun and Li Longji who were still nervous.
These old ministers who are used to the storm have long been chasing the palace. They are not surprised by the fact that they are concerned about how to ensure that the court can operate without any hindrance.
Although Zhang Jianzhi, who was the leader of several people, was unable to provide help to them this time. Long before Li Jun's wedding, Li Xian issued a special decree. While comforting Zhang Jianzhi, he also gave him special permission to not have to mobilize the troops and return to Chang'an to watch the ceremony.
In the past six months, Zhang Jianzhi's health has indeed been much worse than before. This time, he has stopped stubborn and simply stayed in Luoyang.
So much so that he was unable to participate in this major event, which was a pity.
Li Jun sat on Hu's bed, calming down while listening to the arrangements of the old ministers. As the leader of the young generation of the Li Tang royal family, Li Longji personally participated in this change, and must be in the ranks of the political power.
Not only that, in the next period of time, Li Longji will serve as Li Jun's right-hand assistant to help him maintain normal order in the two capitals.
After experiencing initial suspicion, Li Longji has recovered his calmness at this moment. Under the turbulent situation, the Li clan must unite.
With his smart head, he wouldn't be confused about this truth.
The disposal of the deceased Emperor Li Xian is also crucial.
After each emperor ascended the throne, he would choose a Feng Shui treasure land for himself and build a tomb. This work is long-term. Many emperors' tombs will even be built until the day of his death.
The longer the monarch is, the larger the size of his tomb, and the more treasures are hidden.
So, you can imagine the situation of Li Xian’s mausoleum. Just half a year ago, Li Xian had visited the selected mausoleum address in person.
Seeing that progress was going well, several craftsmen were rewarded.
But the time he ascended the throne was too short, and the size of his tomb and the number of burial objects were definitely not as good as his parents.
Now that others are dead, Li Jun can't help, so he can only follow Huan Yanfan's proposal and follow the etiquette and buried Li Xian.
Next, it is the treatment of the Wechs clan.
According to the opinion of Yuan Shuji, who was anxious, those who were still in high positions in the Wei family should be cleared out of the court.
Empress Wei committed an ordinary crime. No matter which dynasty or generation, regicide is a great crime that cannot be forgiven.
In recent years, Wei's family has occupied a favorable position in the central palace and used Li Xian's control to send all the men of Wei's family to high positions by her.
Anyone with eyes in the court can see what Wei Shi did over the years. At this time, she committed such a heinous crime. It is impossible for her relatives to be unaffected.
Yuan Shuji is a warrior, and Li Jun has long heard of this. In the past, he often fought with people in the court, which made the atmosphere in the court full of gunpowder.
At this time, he could not restrain his hot temper and only knew how to beat and kill, and Li Jun could not bear it.
Just at this moment, Huan Yanfan still maintained his usual calm and objectiveness.
Wei's actions were really rebellious, but, after all, it was her personal behavior, and she did not collude with the Wei family to commit rebellion.
There is a difference between the two.
Furthermore, the Wei clan is a large clan in Longxi. Even without the help of Empress Wei, the power in the court should not be underestimated.
Many officials also reach high positions through their own efforts step by step, and cannot be generalized.
Finally, Li Jun listened to Huan Yanfan's advice and punished the Wei family alone, and the rest of the Wei family would not be harsh.
No one is dealt with?
When Yuan Shuji heard this, he immediately became anxious.
He walked up to Li Jun and asked in a questioning tone.
"Yuan Zhongshu, this is done for the sake of the overall situation."
"Your Highness, the old ministers understand the overall situation, but they are not going to disobey your noble's wishes. However, the old minister has been an official for many years and knows the principle of eliminating evil."
"The old minister does not want to leave any future troubles in the court in the future."
Li Jun nodded. He understood what Yuan Shuji said, but as a person who controls the overall situation, he thought it would be better not to have such a narrow mind.
Now, what the court needs most is stability. The power of the Wu clan has just been uprooted, and Empress Wei fell again. At this time, if others are touched and the operation is not good, people's hearts will probably be in chaos.
Furthermore, compared with the troubles of the Wu family, the people of the Wei family are much less harmful. Now that Wu Sansi and others have all been destroyed, the people of the Wei family have no support and dare not take the lead in doing evil.
Since this is the case, there is no need to kill them all.
The shock caused to everyone by Li Xian's sudden death is self-evident. Li Xian has always been very weak and has suffered from a variety of chronic diseases.
However, as long as the disease does not occur, the spirit is still good, and you can persist in going to court and dealing with the government is smooth.
Therefore, no one would have thought that he would die so easily.
Many ministers in the court had complaints about Empress Wei. This contradiction has been around for a long time, not a day or two.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, they began to point their fingers directly at Western.
Wei Shi was not allowed to be buried with Li Xian, which is a foregone conclusion and there is no need to discuss it anymore. However, everyone has not reached a unified opinion on how to humiliate Wei Shi, the evil woman.
Most people think that it is only necessary to demote Wei to a commoner, and Li Longji also agrees with this view. However, the prince Li Jun, who has always been fair and righteous, said this time, he didn't want Wei to slip past it easily.
He strongly advocated that the punishment for Wei should follow the practices of changing surnames and depriving her of the previous dynasty, and completely expelling her into the eighteenth level of hell and never be reborn.
