"The eldest princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang is second only to King Wu in terms of strategy. In my opinion, she is the best choice for the emperor. I sincerely request King Wu to make the eldest princess the empress!"

Li Yuanxiao had an idea flash in his mind and said hurriedly.

He said this to distract the ministers from thinking about recommending him to be the emperor without thinking about it carefully.

He wanted to be the emperor, but he didn't dare. Ah! If he dares to say that he wants to be the emperor, Li Shimin's fate will be his fate!

After hearing Li Yuanxiao's words, the expressions of many ministers changed drastically. Li Changqing's face showed a hint of surprise, and he looked at Li Yuanxiao with interest. Three people.

Li Yuanxiao gave Li Yuanjia a crazy look, and Li Yuanjing winked. The latter two reacted immediately and said quickly:"What the King of Han said is absolutely true, the eldest princess Pingyang is more suitable than us!"

"Although Princess Xiuning is a woman, she is much better than me in terms of talents and achievements. We should give our full support!"

Li Yuanjia and Li Yuanjing all agreed with Li Yuanxiao, praising Li Xiuning's achievements and devaluing themselves as worthless, for fear that Li Changqing would doubt them.

Many ministers were completely shocked. The Minister of Rites was the first to react and said angrily. :"That’s nonsense! How can a woman become emperor? This matter violates etiquette and law and violates ancestral rules!"

"Even if your three highnesses don't want to proclaim themselves emperor, they can't act like this!"

These words of the Minister of Rites expressed the inner thoughts of all the ministers. How could a woman ascend the throne and become emperor? It's too ridiculous.

But Li Changqing didn't think so and looked at Li Yuanxiao and the others with approval. At first glance, he had already had this idea, but he didn't know when to announce it.

Unexpectedly, the three of them helped him to say it. Although they knew that they were speaking out to save their lives, it was considered a mistake. Collide

"What the three kings said deeply touched my heart. I am already a king with equal status, and my position is comparable to that of the emperor. Princess Pingyang’s achievements are second only to me, and I also think that she is worthy of being crowned emperor."

Li Changqing nodded and said, once again making all the ministers doubt their ears.

King Wu...supported Li Xiuning's ascension to the throne? Female emperor? How is this...

But Li Changqing's words are different from Li Yuanxiao and the others. His words are extremely weighty, and the ministers do not If he dared to look down upon him, the Minister of Rites prostrated himself and said in a serious tone:"Your Majesty, you must not do this! It is unprecedented for a woman to ascend the throne, and she may be criticized by the world......"

But before he finished speaking, Wei Zheng suddenly stood up and interrupted him:"It's never happened before, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. The saints in ancient times created a ritual system. As a saint of the Wu Temple, why shouldn't King Wu not create a ritual system?"

"Moreover, due to the merits of the eldest princess, women are not inferior to men, so the officials privately thought that the eldest princess could become emperor."

Wei Zheng did not participate in the debate when the ministers discussed the establishment of the emperor. No one expected that he would now support Li Xiuning as emperor.

The Minister of Rites was so stunned by Wei Zheng's words that he didn't know how to refute.

How should he refute? Could it be that Li Changqing's etiquette system?

When all the ministers were speechless, Li Changqing also spoke:"You are absolutely right, who said women are inferior to men?"

When he said this, Li Changqing's voice was sharp,"Those who gossip in the world should wait until they show Xiuning's achievements before they refute others. The same is true for you!"

Li Changqing's voice was like rolling thunder, shocking everyone's heart.

He then looked at Li Xiuning who was standing in front of the officials, his voice lowered, and he said:"Are you willing to ascend the throne and create a prosperous age for the Tang Dynasty together with the others?"

"I am willing!"

Li Xiuning did not refuse and responded with clasped fists.

Before Li Yuan died, he said that he would leave the country of Li Tang to her and Li Changqing, and let her ascend the throne and proclaim herself emperor.

All the ministers, including the three kings Li Yuanxiao, looked at the two of them in dumbfounded eyes. His eyes were full of disbelief.

But because of what Li Changqing had just said, no one dared to stand up and refute him now.

Because Li Xiuning's contribution to the Tang Dynasty was second only to Li Changqing's, who could compare with the two of them?

Besides, Li Xiuning's personal As the daughter of Li Yuan, she has the direct bloodline of the royal family, and is nobler than Li Yuanxiao and his ilk. If she proclaims herself emperor, it seems that it is not unacceptable. The faces of the ministers are not very good-looking, but Li Changqing, who is standing shoulder to shoulder with the throne, is more noble than Li Yuanxiao. Emperor, there is no room for change in what you say.

"I support Princess Pingyang’s ascension to the throne."

The Minister of Rites sighed deeply in his heart, raised his hands and said.

Seeing this old stubborn, the other ministers relaxed, and immediately stopped insisting, and said one after another:"I am willing to respect your Majesty's will."

"good! A flash of light flashed in Li

Changqing's eyes, and with a wave of his imperial robe and crown, the imperial power was revealed,"Seven days later, we will announce to the world that the eldest princess of Pingyang, Li Xiuning, will be the emperor!""

All the ministers bowed and said yes.

Li Yuanxiao, Li Yuanjing, and Li Yuanjia looked at each other. They just said they supported Li Xiuning as emperor to save their lives. Li Changqing actually did it?

But no matter what, they didn't dare If you have any objections, thank God for being able to save your life today. Who dares to have any thoughts about the throne of the emperor?

As for who will sit on top, it has nothing to do with them. They can just be their own free kings in the prosperous age.

……

……

The news that Li Changqing had installed Li Xiuning, the eldest princess of Pingyang, as emperor spread like the wind throughout the world, shocking countless people.

Registering a woman as emperor? This is simply unprecedented! too crazy!

Many people are scolding this move as ridiculous, but it has been ridiculed by people all over the world.

"Princess Pingyang’s contribution to the Tang Dynasty was second only to King Wu! What qualifications do you rotten scholars have to object?"

"The eldest princess, as a woman, has done something that even you men can't do. You should be ashamed!"

"Just because ancient rituals don't exist doesn't mean that they can't exist. As the holy king of the martial temple, why shouldn't King Wu not pioneer the ritual system?"

"I believe that the Tang Dynasty will become more prosperous under the leadership of King Wu and the eldest princess!"

"God bless the Tang Dynasty! Let us have two wise kings, King Wu and the eldest princess!"............

There were many voices of support, and with Li Changqing's deliberate guidance from the Shadow Guard, those objections were quickly suppressed.

Even if some of the officials are still unable to change their minds, the general trend has become established and their opposition will be of no use.

Furthermore, in the eyes of many people, it is not a bad thing for Li Xiuning to be the emperor, because this can prevent the two emperors of the country from fighting each other.

The fight between Li Shimin and Li Changqing severely damaged the vitality of the Tang Dynasty, and no one wanted it to happen again. _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
