It should be said that Queen Mother Dou was a person who had a clear distinction between love and hate, and she was also very reasonable.
After learning the objective facts from Li Qing, Queen Mother Dou's hatred instantly turned to Li Yuan.
As for killing your brother and imprisoning your father, it is not a big deal in the eyes of wealthy families, especially among the royal family. A little kindness is to be soft-hearted towards yourself.
Empress Dowager Dou's mother was a princess of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Of course she was very knowledgeable about these matters.
Take Li Xiaosan for example. If Li Shimin had simply beaten him to death at that time, there might not be so many things happening now.
After the conversation was over, the matter was over, so Li Qing opened the door and greeted the juniors to return to the hall.
Seeing the intact Aye (grandpa) staring at death, Li Zhi and Li Longji looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
For these two filial children, Li Shimin planned to take care of them slowly.
Don't worry, play with him!
When she saw Yuannu in Queen Changsun's arms, Queen Dou became interested.
She walked over and stretched out her hand to touch Yuan Nu's head, and Yuan Nu also saw that Aye, the woman in front of him, did not dare to breathe, and he let her touch her with great discernment.
Parrots are very discerning species, and they can tell the height of their eyebrows.
"This parrot is very nice, Maid Guanyin, what is its name?" Queen Mother Dou asked with great interest.
"It's called Yuannu." Empress Changsun turned Yuannu around and rushed towards Empress Dowager Dou: "Yuannu, please see Grandma Huang soon."
"Grandma Huang, Grandma Huang!" Yuannu shouted knowingly.
"It's so good." Empress Dowager Dou patted its head with great satisfaction, "I heard that birds have guts, aren't you afraid that it will do something to you?"
"Yuan Nu is very smart, Auntie. It will not relieve itself without instructions." Empress Changsun said with a smile, letting Yuan Nu stand on her hand and pointed it at a small trash can next to it.
"Yuannu, poop."
After hearing the instruction, Yuan Nu immediately stuck out his butt and pooped.
Empress Dowager Dou was even more satisfied. She said to Empress Changsun: "Lend Yuannu to me."
"My daughter-in-law must obey my mother-in-law's words." Queen Changsun reached out and handed Yuannu to Queen Mother Dou.
Queen Mother Dou looked at the well-behaved Yuannu with satisfaction and said to Li Shimin: "Erlang, take me to the Ancestral Temple."
Li Shimin did not dare to neglect, and quickly said to Queen Mother Dou: "Then please ask my mother to move, and my child will drive you there..."
"You are the emperor, don't be so condescending for me." Empress Dowager Dou touched Yuan Nu absently. While she was very satisfied with Li Shimin's attitude, she rejected his request.
Li Shimin also knew what Empress Dowager Dou meant. He cheered and said, "Hey, my dear brother gave me that car for transportation. Ordinary people don't know how to drive it. Only I can..."
"Oh?" Queen Mother Dou glanced at Li Qing, nodded and said, "Then I have to give it a try."
The capacity of the car was limited, and Li Shimin didn't intend to take them all with him. He only took along Empress Dowager Dou, Empress Changsun, Li Xiuning and Li Qing.
After getting on the bus, Queen Mother Dou and Li Xiuning couldn't help but marvel at this "immortal mount", especially Li Xiuning, who looked around like a curious baby.
"You should go to the front, Maid Guanyin." Empress Dowager Dou made arrangements, "I can't sit in the middle if I'm not in good shape, so Xiaoqing and Xiuning can squeeze in."
Being unwell was just an excuse. In fact, Empress Dowager Dou wanted to bring these two people together.
Along the way, Empress Dowager Dou chatted with Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, without giving Li Qing and Li Xiuning a chance to interrupt. Li Qing sat in the back restrainedly. He had never been so close to a beautiful girl in his entire life.
Li Xiuning didn't pay much attention. She was looking at the scenery outside the car window, not knowing what she was thinking.
Li Shimin also saw Aniang's intention and deliberately did not take a shortcut. Instead, he led them around for half an hour before arriving at the Ancestral Temple.
After getting off the car, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel angry when he looked at Li Qing and Li Xiuning, who still didn't say a word to each other.
My dear brother, why are you like a piece of wood?
Li Qing just didn't know. If he wanted to know, he would definitely say that he was not Melina.
The Imperial Ancestral Temple is filled with tablets of ancestors of the Li family, from Laozi Li Er, to Tang Xianzu Li Xi, Tang Yizu Li Tianci, Tang Taizu Li Hu, Tang Shizu Li Bing, and below them is Tang Gaozu Li Yuan.
Queen Mother Dou walked forward slowly and touched Li Yuan's tablet with a complicated expression.
After a while, she waved to Queen Changsun.
"Guanyin Maid, come forward."
Queen Changsun stepped forward as instructed.
Queen Mother Dou stretched out her hand, took Yuan Nu, and combed its feathers carefully.
As if thinking for a while, Empress Dowager Dou carried Yuannu to the top of Li Yuan's tablet and pointed her butt towards the tablet.
A bad premonition suddenly arose in Li Shimin's heart. He, Empress Changsun and Li Xiuning looked at each other, and they all saw the mourning for Li Yuan in each other's eyes.
"Yuannu, poop."
When Yuan Nu heard the order, he chirped.
Li Yuan's memorial tablet is hung with emerald-green parrot excrement, and the character "Gao" on Gao Zu's tablet is a puddle of white uric acid.
"Wait until I return from the Year of Wude, and then I will have it erased."
Queen Mother Dou looked at Yuan Nu's masterpiece with satisfaction and issued the highest instructions of the Tang Empire.
Of course Li Shimin would not object. He had long wanted to do graffiti on his father's memorial tablet. After all, everyone is dead, and if he does this again, he will be stabbed in the spine. Now that Aniang was angry at him, he didn't mind keeping the graffiti.
It would be best to bring Aye, who is now in Wude Year, back to have a look. Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing.
"Erlang, why are you laughing?" Empress Dowager Dou glanced at him.
"No, it's nothing." Li Shimin bit his lip to prevent himself from laughing.
Empress Dowager Dou returned Yuan Nu to Empress Changsun, walked to the memorial tablet of Lao Tzu Li Er, and said to Li Shimin: "Erlang, kneel down."
"Ah, okay grandma." After hearing this, Li Shimin obediently walked over and knelt down.
Queen Mother Dou took a deep breath and said slowly: "No matter what, Jiancheng will always be your eldest brother. Mother is not advising you to be generous, nor is she saying that some people's death is a big deal, just think of it for mother's sake." , give him a posthumous title."
"My aunt understands what I mean." Li Shimin nodded solemnly: "My eldest brother and my eldest brother are also forced to have no choice. In the final analysis, my eldest brother does not blame my eldest brother..."
"Don't say anything for the sake of mother's happiness." Queen Mother Dou shook her head.
"Auntie, everything I said was sincere. Even if it comes to that point, I still respect my eldest brother very much." Li Shimin said very sincerely.
"Mom believes what you said." Empress Dowager Dou happily reached out and stroked Li Shimin's ear, "It's only your father's fault!"
"What do you think of Prince Yin?" Li Shimin asked cautiously.
In terms of posthumous titles, "Yin" is a neutral posthumous title. It is said that it is hidden if it cannot be done, it is said to be hidden, it is said to be hidden if the country is not managed clearly, it is said to be hidden, and it is said to be hidden if the feelings are not exhausted. All in all, it means the same thing - there was hope to dominate the world but ultimately failed to do so, which means that the position will not end. This posthumous title contains neither praise nor condemnation, but rather an attitude of regret for the deceased.
Empress Dowager Dou nodded and said, "Just Yi Erlang."
"Then Sanhu..." Li Shimin asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Dou waved her hands in disgust, and the two brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin came to the point of fighting each other. Li Yuanji's factor that caused trouble was definitely the main reason. In addition, she didn't like Li Yuanji in the first place, so she said:
"Mom is annoyed by him! Give him a bad posthumous name!"
"..." Li Qing glanced at Queen Mother Dou, then at Li Shimin, and lowered his voice and asked Li Xiuning beside him: "Third sister, does Auntie not like Li Yuanji?"
"Sanhu is ugly and has a withdrawn and eccentric personality. My mother-in-law has always disliked him." Li Xiuning also whispered to Li Qing in a low voice.
"Then... well, let's make him the King of the Nest, posthumous title." Li Shimin thought for a moment and decided on Li Yuanji's king and posthumous title - neither of them were good words.
Violent and unloved, it can be said that it perfectly fits Li Yuanji's image.
Now Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji are still King Xi and King Hailing respectively. They had to wait until the 16th year of Zhenguan to change their posthumous titles. Today, thanks to Empress Dowager Dou's operation, it is considered to be ahead of schedule.
"You are a filial child. Mom can rest assured that the Tang Dynasty is in your hands." Empress Dowager Dou looked at Li Shimin with satisfaction. At the end, she added: "You are much better than your father."
"How virtuous and capable is this kid? How dare he compare with Aye..." Li Shimin immediately said modestly.
Queen Mother Dou looked at Li Shimin with a deep look, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be humble, mother doesn't understand you yet? Her little tail is raised to the sky! You said you dare not compare with your stupid father, in fact you are What I’m thinking about is how virtuous he is compared to you, right?”
Li Shimin: Hold your head high and be proud.
"Actually, Brother Li is quite powerful, Auntie." Li Qing began to praise Li Shimin: "During his reign, he governed the world internally, practiced strict economy, encouraged farmers and mulberry farmers, achieved recuperation and recuperation, made the country peaceful and the people peaceful, and created the "Government of Zhenguan". Externally, He expanded his territory, conquered the Eastern Turks, captured Jieli Khan alive and performed a dance in the Taiji Palace, and was revered as the Heavenly Khan by the barbarians. He was truly capable."
"So, you are better than that shameless old man from Pu Liuru's family." Empress Dowager Dou stepped on Yang Jian for everything. In order to disparage him, she even called Yang Jian's Xianbei surname.
But having said that, although Yang Jian said that the method of becoming emperor was not so bright, how could he call it a robbery to seize the throne of a foreign race? Besides, the founding emperor's de-Xianbei transformation was definitely an important monument in history, and Li Qing personally respected him very much.
As for saying that someone called Li Er "Oye Shimin" in order to bury him, this is pure bullshit. Yang Jian issued a decree to restore the Han surname in 581 AD, and Li Shimin was born in 599. As a Han Chinese, it was impossible for Li Yuan to give him a Xianbei surname.
After staying in the Ancestral Temple for a while, Empress Dowager Dou cursed Li Yuan a few times, and then she was satisfied and prepared to return to the Li Zheng Hall.
Empress Dowager Dou said that it was not enough and she would go to Xianling in two days to scold him in person.
Li Qing and Li Shimin looked at each other and lowered their heads with sadness.
Today is the day of reunion, so the whole family is reunited. After they returned to the Li Zheng Palace, Li Shimin sent people to summon the children in the palace to see the imperial grandmother.
As for Li Yuan's sons... forget it.
He was really afraid that my mother wouldn't be able to bear it anymore and dig up the old man's grave.
Oh my god, Queen Mother Dou might really be able to do it.
Naturally, the first ones to come over were Li Zhi and Li Mingda, who were closest. The two were fighting with each other using various animation moves as they walked. It can be seen that the two of them have been watching the cartoon version of "Journey to the West" recently. Li Zhi is so angry that he has to build a tent with his hands after taking two steps.
"Is this Aye from childhood?" Li Xian looked disgusted and whispered to Li Dan in a low voice: "How did your uncle say that? Oh, it looks like there is a kind of beauty with missing brain..."
Li Dan said "special" expressionlessly, almost unable to hold back his laughter.
I didn't expect, I didn't expect, second brother, you, the thick-browed man, would actually arrange this behind your back!
Li Zhi was not in the mood to care what his two filial sons were talking about his Aye. The first time he saw Li Mingda, he stumbled over. Li Mingda looked up and saw the reckless adult Li Zhi, and was shocked.
"You... Goose? Are you Ninth Brother?" The smart Li Mingda recognized the adult Li Zhi's identity from the vague appearance of his facial features.
Li Zhi picked her up and held her tightly in his arms, as if he was afraid that she would float away.
"Sizi!" Li Zhi whimpered, tears streaming down his face, soaking the clothes on Li Mingda's shoulders.
Only then did Xiao Li Zhi react, but he was not tall enough, so he could only hit the adult version of his legs with his fists like a windmill, and shouted "Let go of my sister!".
"What's going on?" Queen Changsun looked at her ungrateful little son in astonishment and asked in confusion.
Li Qing sighed: "Sister-in-law doesn't know something. Since you were gone, Brother Li has kept Zhinu and Sizi by his side to raise him personally, so the relationship between them is the best. In the world of adult Li Zhi, Sizi is twelve Died at a young age..."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, Si Zi is in good health." Seeing that Queen Changsun wanted to speak, Li Qing immediately added.
"Thank you, uncle." Empress Changsun thanked her gratefully. She also loved Li Mingda, a well-behaved, sensible and quirky daughter, to the extreme.
She raised her head and called out: "Child slave."
"Hey..." The two Li Zhi agreed together.
"I said that big one, you scared Si Zi." Empress Changsun reminded displeasedly.
When Li Zhi heard what his mother said, he quickly let go of his arms and sat down with Sizi on his arm.
"Sizi, Ninth Brother finally sees you..." Li Zhi sniffed and sobbed.
"Brother Ninth, don't cry, don't cry." Li Mingda stretched out his little hand and wiped Li Zhi's tears.
Li Zhi looked at Li Mingda deeply, and couldn't see enough: "Si Zi, you are still so cute, but Ninth Brother is already old..."
"No, it's not that he's old." Li Mingda put his little hands on Li Zhi's unshaven face and said softly, "It's Sizi's ninth brother who has grown up."
