Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Du Ruhui seemed to be very interested. He turned to Sun Simiao and asked:

"Doctor Sun, if he died of poison, would it still be known even after a thousand years?"

Sun Simiao pinched his beard and looked a little embarrassed. He was both happy and worried at the same time.

Fortunately, from the current point of view, medicine in later generations has developed vigorously, and its classification and disciplines are extremely detailed. Even the toxicology of medicine can be a separate theory.

Of course, the worry is that the study of medical science is also vast. I wonder how much of the medical ocean will be measured when I die?

As for Du Ruhui's question, it is simple:

"That's natural. After all, the poison can penetrate the muscles and bones and kill people."

"Just like people who were burned, drowned, or strangled can all be judged from their bones, so it is the same as death due to poison."

Wu Zuo's method of identifying corpses was no stranger to Sun Simiao. When Jian Jian and Du Ruhui introduced the most straightforward characteristics of people who died of poison.

"As for Li Xian's death..."

Sun Simiao pondered for a moment and said:

"From the Spring and Autumn Period to the present, the poison that can cause death will cause people to suffer bone-eroding pain after eating it. If the emperor eats it, he will know it within a moment."

After Sun Simiao's supplementary explanation, Du Ruhui also understood that if Li Xianzhen was poisoned, he would feel severe pain in his body as soon as he took the poison. He only had to summon the imperial doctor to know that he was poisoned, and what happened next would be absolutely terrible. The past cannot be simply covered up.

But it is still too troublesome to say it all. Du Ruhui agrees with later generations' evaluation of Li Xian from the bottom of his heart:

Like a fool...

After all, even Sima Zhong said, "This servant is bleeding, don't go."

Li Xian reluctantly explained that Li Xian's alliance with the Wu family was to consolidate the power of the emperor, but later faced with Wu Sansi's blind indulgence and arrogance towards his wife and daughter, he was already confused. In this case, he wanted to be Wu Zetian's second best. Empress Wei and Princess Anle did not have any need to poison Li Xian.

Li Shimin was not interested in any of this and pointed to the core of the problem:

"Whether he is poisoned or not, it will not affect Li Xian's death."

How you die is not important; what happens after death is important.

Changsun Wuji immediately jumped out and agreed:

"'Wei Shi should revolutionize the Tang Dynasty?' The little beetles dare to show off their power, and they don't even think twice about how to lead the way and kill them."

"From what I see, this is the act of destroying one's body and seeking death. I, Tang Shang, have a prosperous life and will definitely let such disasters be known. How can I act like a mantis who knows how to advance but not how to avoid it?"

Du Ruhui curled his lips inwardly, why do you need to say this? After all, Li Longji looked like he was sure of victory.

But it’s not that Changsun Wuji couldn’t say such disgusting words, but he analyzed it based on the actual situation:

"If we were to draw a picture of Empress Wu's past, the most suitable one would be Princess Taiping. What's the deal with Empress Wei and Princess Anle?"

By now, everyone in the Ganlu Palace could see that once Wu Zetian fell and a cowardly emperor like Li Xian was brought in, the remaining princesses and queens would all be thinking about the Queen's past.

But now that Li Xian has died, Empress Wei and Princess Anle have lost their biggest supporter. Now that the opportunity to relive the past of the Empress is close at hand, who says Wu Zhou can't regain his title?

At this moment, Du Ruhui looked at Li Longji's methodical contact with the Imperial Army, but suddenly thought of the peaceful days when His Majesty was the King of Qin.

Less than a hundred years after Li Tang was pacified, these mediocre people vying for power have already forgotten that it was His Highness the King of Qin who conquered the country inch by inch with the bow and sword in his hand.

If the soldiers and horses under his command are ineffective and lifeless, how can he be called the emperor?

[In Li Xian's time, although Princess Taiping was not prominent, no one dared to ignore this giant Buddha.

After all, in terms of status, she was the biological daughter of Emperor Gaozong and the Empress. In terms of power, after Li Xian ascended the throne, she was given the title of "Princess Taiping of the Zhenguo", which granted her five thousand households and the right to open a mansion.

She is written as a princess, but she is actually a prince.

Moreover, during the Wu Zhou period, Princess Taiping, whether she wanted to or not, was taught by her mother to be good at power. Regarding the relationship between several major women in the Zhongzong period, the history books recorded this:

"Empress Wei and Shangguan Zhaorong are both afraid that they are not as resourceful as the princess."

Therefore, Li Longji entered the scene quite soberly. He realized that he was not able to wipe out all these queen mothers and princesses, so he simply entered the game to use his strength. After all, the two sides cooperated well in the Shenlong Coup, didn't they?

And the partner is indeed a multiple-choice question. After all, it is impossible for Li Longji to go to Empress Wei to join forces. Everyone over there is dreaming of becoming emperor. If you want to cooperate again, you are not digging into the ancestral grave of the old Li family.

In short, Princess Taiping was also happy to see the success of this cooperation. History books described her attitude as "princess happy" and sent her son Xue Chongjian to assist Li Longji.

After everything was ready, Li Longji's coup team suddenly realized something was wrong: Where is the Prime Minister?

In fact, if you think about it, you know that Li Longji did not have a third eye, and he did not have the aura of being a king and domineering person. The reason why the Imperial Army was willing to listen to him largely depended on Li Dan's status as the Prime Minister. After all, his brother will eventually This incident was not uncommon before the Song Dynasty.

Li Longji retorted righteously, saying that we are gathered here to save the country. If it succeeds, it will benefit all people in the world. If it fails, please kill me for loyalty and filial piety. How can I involve my father and make him worry?

And Li Longji further analyzed: If the Prime Minister is invited, it means that I have put my own father in danger. If he fails to be invited, wouldn't our plan be leaked?

The subtext is obvious: If my father doesn't want to do it, is it possible that he can still be killed? That's something Taizong didn't even do.

The well-founded words made everyone feel ashamed, so without further ado, everyone took action that night.

Despite the careful planning, the whole thing was lackluster.

Li Longji led his cronies, Li Ying Wai, to control the Forbidden Garden in the north of the palace. Later, his cronies who originally belonged to the North Gate Forbidden Army went directly into the Forbidden Army camp and led his men to kill Empress Wei's cronies directly. He climbed up and shouted, saying that Empress Wei poisoned the late emperor. Tonight we must clear the emperor's side and support the prime minister!

"The men of Yulin all obey orders gladly."

Later, Li Longji was so stable that he personally took over the Xuanwu Gate, controlled the arsenal and the North Gate Forbidden Army, provided support for his cronies who entered the palace, and at the same time guaranteed a retreat.

But things progressed far more smoothly than Li Longji expected. Seeing the imperial army entering the palace, Qing Jun's side, and the imperial army in the inner palace "all responded", the entire palace began to besiege Empress Wei.

Empress Wei herself fled in panic and was beheaded by a forbidden army. Li Longji came forward to claim credit. Princess Anle and Wu Yanxiu, the only remaining member of the Wu family, both died in the rebellion.

Shangguan Wan'er was so panicked that she took out Li Xian's posthumous edict - the one that designated Prime Minister Li Dan to supervise the country, hoping that both parties could cooperate.

Li Longji felt that it was not good and chose to kill Shangguan Wan'er under his banner.

After dawn, Li Longji put on his armor and went to find his father to plead guilty. When they met, the two men hugged each other and cried so sincerely.

Li Longji said that he did not ask his father for instructions and should be punished. Li Dan said that my son is a hero in the world who can stabilize the world and rebuild the country!

After the process was completed, the two men looked at each other and smiled before going to the palace to meet the frightened Tang Shao Emperor Li Chongmao. Afterwards, the two divided work and cooperated with each other in a tacit understanding.

Li Longji sent out the imperial army and killed all of Empress Wei's party in just one day. The young emperor Li Chongmao, accompanied by Li Dan, went to see the people outside the palace gate to calm the people's hearts.

The coup occurred late at night on June 20th.

On the 21st, Empress Wei's party was completely eradicated.

On the 23rd, with the help of Princess Taiping, Li Chongmao abdicated the throne to Li Dan.

Li Dan officially ascended the throne on the 24th, and Li Tang's world seemed to be stable again. 】

Liu Bei recalled the various operations of the Han Dynasty to "kill national traitors", and then looked at the Tang Dynasty's "leaving no future troubles" in just one day, and finally he could only comment:

"It's quite skillful."

"That is."

Zhang Fei immediately agreed with what his brother said:

"If the predecessors demonstrated it, the successors can fill in the gaps."

Liu Bei was choked for a moment. He didn't know whether the predecessor the third brother was talking about was Li Longji's grandfather Li Shimin, or whether he was referring to the Han and Jin Dynasties before the Tang Dynasty, including them.

Jian Yong looked at this neat coup and said with admiration and admiration:

"Li Longji, who is only thirty years old, acted like this, but he can be said to be a perseverant person. He helped the government clear the chaos and made great contributions to the country."

After all, even if he didn't like such a bloody palace coup in his heart, Jian Yong knew better that when Li Xian was alive, the queen and princess dared to openly sell their official positions.

If we wait until the Queen Mother comes to court or really becomes the empress, I am afraid that all the people in the world will be packed up and sold, and then it will be too late to regret.

So it is sincere about Kizana.

As for sighing, everyone present also knew it. Thinking about the Anshi Rebellion, Jian Yong shook his head:

"Compared with the appearance of such a heroic master, it is no wonder that later generations lamented that he should die early."
