Chapter 96 The Two Saints(2/2)

For example, in ancient times, farming and weaving were the foundation of a person's life. Men farmed and women weaved. The emperor presided over the plowing ceremony, while the queen was responsible for the silkworm kissing ceremony.

This etiquette is very complicated, but very important. One year before the death of Empress Wende's eldest son, Qi disease recurred, and she still dragged her sick body to perform the silkworm ceremony.

Queen Wang was so lazy that she was unwilling to go in person, forcing Li Zhi to ask his ministers to do it for him.

Later, the "History of the Song Dynasty" also stated that "according to the precedents of farmers, officials were sent to take charge of affairs." Since the previous dynasty could fish, we can also fish.

In comparison, Empress Wu kissed silkworms five times and did it herself. This crazy number of times would have killed other queens.

This is a standard workaholic.

But Empress Wu knew very well that the reason why she was made queen by Li Zhi was none of the above reasons. The biggest reason was that her family background was very poor.

Compared to Queen Wang, who was a descendant of Wang Sizheng and was accepted and supported by the Guanlong family, Concubine Xiao Shu was backed by the Xiao family of Lanling and the Jiangnan gentry. The Wu family was born in a poor family. It was only the merit of the warrior Xun generation that led to Li Yuan's abdication.

, no one is taking care of you, and it is completely insufficient to cross the class.

In the shadow of the high-ranking gentry of the Tang Dynasty, this relative power was extremely shabby.

But Li Zhi valued this, and after experiencing the fear of being ignored by Changsun Wuji, he chose to let her become the queen.

As a result, Wu Minzhi now wants to become bigger and stronger?

If he doesn't die, who will die?

"It was indeed my fault..."

After Empress Wu finished thinking, she spoke softly: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask of you!"

Li Zhi raised his head slightly and said equally gently: "Mei Niang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Empress Wu said: "Mr. Ci devoted himself to the Buddha during his lifetime and followed the Dharma in his daily life. Now that the Buddha statue has been in the imperial city for a long time, he can walk the streets to pray for blessings and hold Dharma meetings."

She sighed: "He Lanmin did evil things and did not have the compassion of his grandmother at all. I am afraid that my compassionate spirit in heaven will not be stable. If this is the case, I will be guilty of a serious crime.

Li Zhi nodded: "People say that mother and daughter are connected, and the beautiful mother is kind and filial. This is the most appropriate measure. On the day when Mrs. Rongguo turns seven, a Dharma assembly will be held!"

Empress Wu was determined, knowing that the scandal would end here and would not involve her mother, so she added: "He Lanmin is so arrogant and unethical, and has committed numerous crimes. Let him be exiled to Leizhou first, and then order him to commit suicide!"

Li Zhi frowned: "But he continues your Wu family's incense..."

Empress Wu said: "My brother's descendants have been exiled in Lingnan for a long time. We should feel repentant and take them back to renew our incest."

Li Zhi nodded again: "Mei Niang's move is an example of righteousness and annihilation of relatives. I just wronged you. Once this matter comes out, the position of Queen of Heaven will have to wait."

The muscles in Empress Wu's cheeks twitched fiercely, and the hand massaging Li Zhi's head became softer and gentler: "As long as I can share your Majesty's worries, I am not in a hurry, I am not in a hurry..."

Li Zhi hugged her: "Go to sleep! Go to sleep!"
