Speaking of Wu Zetian finally listening to Di Renjie's suggestion, there is a story that has to be told about the restoration of Luling King Li Xian as the prince, and that is the famous story of Di Renjie's "Interpretation of Dreams and Resurrection of Tang".

Wu Zetian wanted to make his nephew Wu Sansi the crown prince and asked the ministers for their opinions. Di Renjie said that if he wanted to establish a prince, it would be King Luling.

Wu Zetian was very upset at the time and naturally did not adopt Di Renjie's opinion.

However, Wu Zetian later had a strange dream and was puzzled, so he asked Di Renjie to interpret the dream.

There are two theories about this dream.

First, Wu Zetian dreamed of playing Shuanglu (an ancient board game), but he could never win.

Di Renjie explained his dream: "Shuanglu is invincible because there are no more sons. This is God's will to warn your majesty. The prince is the root of the world, and the world is in danger if it moves."

Secondly, Wu Zetian dreamed of a big parrot with both wings broken.

Di Renjie explained his dream: "Wu is your majesty's surname, and the two wings refer to the two sons. Your Majesty now only has the two sons of Luling King Li Xian and Xiang Wang Li Dan. As long as the two sons are restored, the two wings can cheer up."

After the dream was resolved, Di Renjie said again: "Emperor Taizong took the wind and rain, and he took the arrows and stones, before he calmed the world and passed it on to his descendants. The first emperor entrusted his two sons to his majesty, but now his majesty wants to hand over the world to a foreign surname? Besides, which is the nephew or the mother and son? The relationship is closer? Your majesty makes his son a prince, and he can enjoy the ancestral temple in the future. If he establishes a nephew, I have never heard of an aunt to enjoy the ancestral temple?"

Wu Zetian was very upset about this and said, "This is my family affair, and you shouldn't interfere."

Di Renjie said: "The king is home from all corners of the world, and everything in the world is his majesty's family affairs. The king is the head of state, and his subordinates are the limbs, like a whole. Besides, the minister is the prime minister, how can he ignore it?"

Although Wu Zetian did not immediately listen to Di Renjie's suggestion to re-establish Li Xian as the crown prince, Di Renjie's words on dream interpretation are still in Wu Zetian's heart.

Later, he finally took Li Xian back to Luoyang and regained his position as prince, and said to Di Renjie, "I will return the prince to you now."

The resettlement of Prince Li Xian laid the foundation for Zhang Jianzhi, Huan Yanfan, Jing Hui and others to take advantage of Wu Zetian's serious illness to launch the Shenlong coup to restore the Tang Dynasty.

In 705 AD, Wu Zetian was seriously ill. Zhang Jianzhi, Huan Yanfan, Jing Hui and others took the opportunity to stage a coup and forced the seriously ill Wu Zetian to give way.

Wu Zetian was eventually passed down to Prince Li Xian, and Li Xian's second ascended the throne as Emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty.

However, after Li Xian came to the throne for the second time, he only served as emperor for five years, and died when he was fifty-five years old.

Regarding the death of Li Xian, there are historical records that he died at the hands of Queen Wei and Princess Anle, who were poisoned to death by the two.

The reason why the two poisoned Li Xian was because Empress Wei wanted to be the emperor and wanted to become the second Wu Zetian. Princess Anle wanted to be the emperor's maiden, and later inherit the throne of Queen Wei.

It is common for Li Xian to be poisoned by Queen Wei and Princess Anle.

However, is this really the case? In fact, it is controversial.

First, in the existing history books, the first mention of the murder of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian by Wei Wei was in a coup against Wei Wei more than half a month after Li Xian's death, with obvious military mobilization colors. Eighteen days after Zhongzong's death, Princess Taiping and Li Longji jointly launched a coup. At that time, a general of the coup said to the soldiers: "Emperor Wei poisoned the first emperor. Today we are going to kill Queen Wei to avenge the first emperor!"

Obviously, saying that Queen Wei poisoned Zhongzong to death was just to find a sufficient reason for the coup d'etat, and it was not a basis for understanding the facts.

Second, "Old Tang Shu", which treats Princess Anle completely as a negative textbook, mentions many details about her wanting to be the emperor and maiden, Xiuding Kunchi, etc., but it does not mention that she is still alive. Poisoned Zhongzong.

Obviously, such a major omission was definitely not because the author of "Old Tang Book" was protecting Princess An Le. It can only be said that people did not recognize the poisoning of Princess An Le at the time.

Third, both Queen Wei and Princess Anle were reburied after death. More than half a month after Tang Zhongzong's death, Queen Wei and Princess Anle also died in a coup. Although the banner of the coup d’état was that the two of them were poisoned to death, they were guilty of death, but shortly after the coup d’état, they were reburied with ceremonies. If they really poisoned Zhongzong, how could they still recognize their identity and reburied them with rituals?

Fourth, Queen Wei and Princess Anle did not have the realistic need to poison Zhongzong. Their preparations at the time were still very inadequate. If Tang Zhongzong was there, they could still rely on the big tree to further develop their forces under his protection. When the power is sufficiently large, he will attack Tang Zhongzong. This is in line with common sense.

From this point of view, the record that Queen Wei’s mother and daughter hurriedly jumped over the wall and poisoned Tang Zhongzong is not entirely credible. It is very likely that it was the lie of the victor at the time and found sufficient reason for his coup.

It is estimated that Li Longji and Princess Taiping did it.

The real cause of Li Xian's death should be from disease. As we all know, the Li Tang family has a history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular genetic diseases. Tang Gaozu, Tang Taizong, Empress Changsun, and Tang Gaozong all suffered from "qi disease" and "wind disease", which in ancient times referred to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Therefore, most of the emperors of the Li Tang Dynasty did not live long, and Li Xian died at the age of fifty-five, but it was normal.

Of course, there are also longevity, such as Tang Xuanzong Li Longji.

In general, the death of Li Xian by the poisoning mother and daughter of Empress Wei is likely to be an unjust case through the ages.

Of course, this is just speculation.

As for the true truth of the matter, it may be a permanent mystery.

Of course, both Queen Wei and Princess Anle wanted to be emperors, which must be true, and Princess Taiping, the daughter of Wu Zetian, also wanted to be emperors.

After the death of Zhongzong Li Xian, Ruizong Li Dan ascended the throne, and Princess Taiping began to compete with Li Longji for the throne.

But in the end, Li Longji had the last laugh.

I have to say that after Wu Zetian succeeded in becoming the emperor, many ambitious women were all about to be moved, all wanting to become the second Wu Zetian.

Just wanting to be the second Wu Zetian is so easy.

As for "Detective Di Renjie", Yiyang County lord Li Qingxia, who also wants to be the emperor, is a fictional character in "Detective Di Renjie". There is no such character in history.

Thinking that people like Queen Wei, Princess Anle, and Princess Taiping all want to be emperors, book fans who are familiar with history can't help feeling that being an emperor is so good?

Different people have different opinions on this issue, so I won't discuss it for the time being. The most important thing now is the final contest between Di Renjie and Jin Mulan. What kind of situation will it look like?

Fans are looking forward to it, so continue to look down.

After understanding the enemy's movements, Di Renjie took the lead and ordered the four doors to be closed and the city to be cleaned. It was falsely claimed that the Turkic army had arrived nearby, all shops were closed, pedestrians returned home, and anyone who violated the order was punished as a spy.

This action of Di Renjie instantly disrupted the enemy's plan, because the four doors in Youzhou City were closed and the city was forbidden to clean the streets, they could no longer communicate secretly.

The enemies lost contact with each other, which caused the enemy's latest secret contact point, the internal response of the Tianbao Silver, to panic.
