In the process of Tang Ruizong Li Dan ascending to the throne and proclaiming emperor, two people made outstanding achievements. These two are his son Li Longji and his sister Princess Taiping. It is with the help of these two people that the former prime minister Li Dan can once again become the great treasure. After Li Dan ascended the throne, the third son Li Longji, who made great contributions, was canonized as the prince, while the Princess Taiping gained power. It stands to reason that Li Longji and Princess Taiping were once comrades-in-arms in a trench, and the relationship should be relatively harmonious. But after Li Longji ascended to the throne, the first thing was to kill the aunt Princess Taiping. Why is Li Longji so cruel and ruthless? Baku Shijun came to tell everyone today.
First of all, the battle for power between the two has become more and more fierce, and it has reached the point of death and death. Since ancient times, there have been no permanent enemies and no permanent friends, only eternal interests. The reason Princess Taiping and Li Longji joined forces at the beginning was entirely because they had a common enemy: Queen Wei. After Queen Wei teamed up with her daughter An Le to poison Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, she wanted to become the second Wu Zetian. But Wu Zetian’s other sons were still there, and Wu Zetian’s daughter was there. How could it be an outsider’s turn to occupy the magpie’s nest? So Princess Taiping and Li Longji’s aunt and nephew hit it off and they joined forces to kill the Webster’s party and help the cowardly Li Dan Enthroned and proclaimed emperor.
Princess Taiping supported Li Dan because of Li Dan’s cowardly character, which is convenient for her to handle and participate in politics in the future. And Li Longji supported his father to succeed to the throne in the future. Both are eyeing power. After the Wechsler party was removed, the power of the court naturally had to be divided again. Princess Taiping relied on her support to vigorously win over the former court officials, and many people also ran to hold her thighs. And Li Longji will naturally not let it go, and is also secretly developing his own power. As for Tang Ruizong Li Dan, who was like a puppet, he first listened to the opinions of Princess Taiping, and then the prince. Later, he became more and more inclined to Prince Li Longji. As a result, Princess Taiping was even more dissatisfied with Li Longji.
Secondly, Princess Taiping blatantly persuaded Prime Minister Song Jing to change the crown prince. Princess Taiping knew that Li Longji was wise and capable, and once he became the throne in the future, she would definitely have nothing to eat. So he intercepted the prime minister's invitation to the Guangfan Gate of Xuanzheng Hall and asked Song Jing to propose to the emperor to change the prince. Fortunately, Song Jing knew the generality and refused strictly, so that Princess Taiping did not succeed in the conspiracy. Imagine if you were Li Longji, would you be kind to someone who tried to abolish your crown prince? What's more, the royal family has no affection.
Finally, prevent the next Wu Zetian from appearing. Minister Li Tang was really scared of the female leader's political leadership. Princess Taiping opposed Queen Wei not because she was in the harem, but because Queen Wei was not her own and touched her interests. In fact, among Wu Zetian's children, the one who resembles Wu Zetian most is Princess Taiping. She listened to the teachings by her mother since she was a child, and learned seven or eight out of ten in her words and deeds. In the court, she also won over a large number of students and officials. Once the time is right, she will definitely follow Wu Zetian to proclaim emperor.
At that time, not only the father, but also himself and his children and grandchildren will become the souls of Princess Taiping. In order to avoid this situation, Li Longji must of course kill Princess Taiping. As the later Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin said: "On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?" It is the wisest choice to choke the buds in the cradle. Of course, if Princess Taiping wins, Li Longji as the loser will definitely die.
