Chapter 1628

~4 min read 726 words

As soon as she thought that these people were Li Tang's troops, Wu Zetian felt the veins on her forehead throbbing, and her brain stopped thinking.

With these people arriving, can her empire still be preserved?

Even if she had a million elite troops in her hands, what could she do?

What's more, once the Li family returns, it's a question of who those million elite troops will listen to!

Just as she was thinking this, she saw the heavenly soldiers in the sky separate, and a man wearing the Great Tang imperial robes walked out and looked toward the Emperor.

Because the distance was too far, Wu Zetian couldn't see the man's appearance clearly.

However, the man's imperial robes could be seen clearly.

It was indeed the Great Tang regulation!

Just as she was thinking this, another person walked out, also wearing the same clothes as that man.

"Two Great Tang Emperors?"

Wu Zetian's heart was trembling, "Is it Li Yuan, Li Shimin, or Li Zhi and others?"

As soon as she thought of Li Zhi, her heart trembled uncontrollably.

"Wu clan, you should abdicate!"

"I, Li Shimin of the Great Tang, have returned!"

Li Shimin looked at Chang'an City, his voice indifferent.

For Wu Zetian, he no longer had much hatred in his heart.

Descendants losing the empire is just a matter of incompetence.

"It's His Majesty Taizong!"

"His Majesty Taizong has returned!"

Chang'an City instantly boiled over.

Taizong of the Great Tang, who created the Reign of Zhenguan, was honored by all races as the Heavenly Khan.

His ability to govern was obvious to all.

Compared to him, Wu Zetian's ability was simply like that of an elementary school student.

Although later generations praised her, it was based on the fact that she was the only female emperor.

In fact, not to mention male emperors, even if compared with foreign female monarchs, her ability was hard to rank among the best.

"Taizong!"

Wu Zetian's expression froze.

Just at this moment, she saw Di Renjie walking over with big strides.

"Your Majesty, abdicate."

"Why does Di Qing come at this time, could it be that the people in the sky have something to do with you?" Wu Zetian's eyes narrowed slightly.

In such turbulent times, the smartest thing to do is to worship the new monarch, and a safer way is to close the door and not go out.

As a result, Di Renjie ran to the palace to persuade her to abdicate.

Such behavior is truly suspicious.

Di Renjie bowed and said solemnly: "I won't hide it from Your Majesty, the two Majesties Taizong were invited back by me to tidy up the mountains and rivers of the Great Tang."

"Before this, I went to Junzhou, the Crown Prince really couldn't shoulder the heavy responsibility, so I had to let His Majesty Taizong return."

Wu Zetian was stunned, then suddenly laughed loudly: "Good, good, Di Qing, you did really well!!"

She had always known that Di Renjie harbored thoughts for the Li Tang.

However, as long as he had talent, she still dared to use him.

But she didn't expect Di Renjie to show her such a hand, which was truly eye-opening.

"Your Majesty's words are too heavy!"

"Di Renjie is just following the will of heaven."

Wu Zetian sneered: "Will of heaven?"

"Not bad." Di Renjie nodded, "Even without His Majesty Taizong, Your Majesty, you are advanced in age, and the successor will only be a person of the Li family, not the Wu family."

Wu Zetian was silent.

She naturally understood Di Renjie's words.

If the Li family succeeds to the throne, she can still have a good ending, and history books will add more praise.

If the Wu family succeeds to the throne.

That would be hard to say!

Ancient people say, a married daughter is like spilled water.

Even if she passes the throne to the Wu family, and they happen to sit firmly on the throne.

It is impossible for the Wu family to have any gratitude toward her, and instead, they will feel that everything came as a matter of course.

Even for sacrifices, they might not be very attentive.

But if the throne is passed back to the Li family, it is not so.

Filial piety is the rule that ancient dynasties most need to follow.
