“In fact, I don’t want to pass the throne to the Wu family. After all, Your Majesty Zetian doesn’t like the Wu family.

However, you are also promoting the Wu family crazily, mainly because the Li family is more opposed to you, so you use your mother's family.

You still have very complicated feelings towards the Wu family. If possible, Your Majesty, you would not want to pass on the throne to anyone, right? Yes, every emperor wants to give up the throne that he has worked so hard to get to someone else." Of course, except for one person, that is Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

When the emperors heard this, they all nodded in unison. Of course, they didn't want to give up power or give the throne they had worked so hard to obtain to others.

Even if that person is your own son, that’s not okay!

If they could live forever, they would be willing to be emperors for generations and never give up power. Who wouldn't want to be an emperor for a long time?

Who would be willing to give the throne to someone else?

Otherwise, why did so many emperors take elixirs? Wasn’t it to sit in the position for a long time?

"Of course, who would be willing to give the throne to someone else?" Besides, it was so difficult for her to sit on the throne. Only she herself knew how much effort she had made to sit on this position. How could she give it to someone else so easily?

Her own son, haha, is not as important as her throne.

Li Wu blinked her eyes innocently and said, "You guys are awesome." Anyway, she was just an idler. It was so funny during the morning court session that she couldn't even get up.

And she had to deal with so many things, matters in the harem, natural disasters, all of which were blamed on the emperor. She couldn't bear such a miserable life. Once again, she was glad that she was not an ancient person, otherwise she would have been beaten to death a hundred times. Oh, more than that.

"What do you mean by awesome?" Wu Zetian was a little confused. What was so awesome about this?

She also thinks that future generations are more powerful, with so many powerful things and so many people, and everything seems so powerful. Only future generations are more powerful.

Li Wu shook his head. "Nothing, nothing. Your Majesty, if you want to pass on the throne and you can't think of a candidate, a woman is not bad either. And you are the empress, right? What's wrong with having a few more empresses?"

Li Wu's words were like a slap in the face. Wu Zetian looked at her and thought, yes, why should she limit herself to men? She herself is a woman, so why can't there be another female emperor?

Barrage

Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin: My little immortal, that is my great Tang Dynasty!

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi: I have no objection to passing the throne to my daughter, but what about my sons?

She looks so useless, even worse than my daughter.

Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che: I never expected what the little immortal said, instigating the empress to pass the throne to a woman!

Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng: Well, if my son is really not capable, what’s wrong with passing it on to my daughter?

Qin Shihuang saw it very clearly. If his Great Qin could be passed down for hundreds or thousands of generations, he would be happy even if there were female emperors in every dynasty.

Many people hold a rejecting attitude towards the idea of ​​a female emperor. Since ancient times, what they have been exposed to and taught have always been that men are superior and women are inferior.

To them, women are just a money-losing commodity, worthless things. If they are from a wealthy family, it's okay as they can be used for marriage alliances, but if they are from a poor family, they are just cheap.

The entire barrage was discussing this topic, and it was so heated, but no one dared to say too much. It would be terrible if they became the first person who was unable to see the sky screen.

Wu Zetian herself took Li Wu's words to heart.

Princess Taiping was so happy that she almost died, and she quickly thanked Li Wu. She also wanted to be an empress, and now that the immortal said so, her mother would definitely consider her.

After all, her mother only has her as her precious daughter!

"Wu Sansi and others often whispered to Your Majesty that since ancient times, the emperor has never had an heir with a different surname.

Your Majesty naturally heard this and hesitated for a long time. When you were considering whether to establish a member of the Li family or a member of the Wu family, Prime Minister Di Renjie came out.

He said, how can the love between aunt and nephew be as strong as the love between mother and son? Moreover, if a son is made the heir, he will naturally be worshipped in the Imperial Ancestral Temple after thousands of years. However, if a nephew is made the heir, how can a nephew be worshipped in the Imperial Ancestral Temple for his aunt?

Well, as soon as these words were spoken, the Wu family immediately left the stage, and the heir would undoubtedly be given to their own son.

I also think that what Lord Di said is indeed correct."

Li Wu felt that whether or not to worship was not important at all. They were dead anyway, so it didn’t matter whether they worshipped or not.

Of course, she didn't dare say this out loud. The ancients attached great importance to this, for they were afraid that no one would worship them or smash pots in their honor after their death.

Li Wu can understand it, but cannot agree with it.

All I can say is respect it.

Wu Zetian nodded when she heard this and said, "I was also very hesitant about this successor issue, but now I know what to do!"

Wu Zetian has been very hesitant about her successor since she ascended the throne. She also knows that she is getting old and doesn't know how long she can live. Now, after hearing what the little immortal said, Taiping can be cultivated!

"Later, Lord Di also advised Your Majesty to recall Li Xian.

Your Majesty, Zetian, naturally gave up the idea of ​​opposing the Wu family.

He also secretly brought Li Xian back.

The Chief of Control of Cranes Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong both requested Your Majesty to make Li Xian the crown prince, and Li Dan also requested to abdicate in favor of Li Xian.

Under various pressures from Li Tang, Empress Wu Zetian finally compromised and made Li Xian the crown prince.

Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it this time. It's not impossible to make Princess Taiping the lord. Princess Taiping is also the daughter of the Li family and has Li blood flowing in her veins, right?

Don’t say that your daughter is not from the Li family and has no right to inherit the throne,” Li Wu didn’t want to hear this, and hated the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls the most.

And I also want to change the status of women, at least not kill all newborn girls at will.

There was a lot of discussion on this topic in the barrage, especially among the common people, who had completely different attitudes.

It was okay for the common people before the Tang Dynasty, but it was no longer the case during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. How could a daughter inherit a family?

This doesn't make sense. Having a daughter would be a loss of money. How can the little immortal say such a thing?

Giving birth to a daughter is looked down upon; at least there should be a boy in the family.

The emperors could not help but frown when they saw the people arguing so heatedly, and most of them were belittling women, which made them feel very uncomfortable.

"After you, Your Majesty, resolved the issue of succession, you also began to enjoy yourself like other emperors.

Your Majesty, the two brothers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong, were handsome and loved by you. At that time, you were already in your twilight years, suffering from old age and illness, unable to attend court for a long time, and your ability to manage the court also declined, so you used the two Zhang brothers as your eyes and ears!"

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang: Emperor Gaozong's face was extremely dark. He stared at Wu Meiniang and laughed angrily, "Meiniang, you will live a good life in the future. You even have a lover, and they are brothers?"

Wu Meiniang was so frightened that she broke out in cold sweats, and no one told her in advance that she would have a lover in the future.
