At dawn the next day, Li Yanran woke up with a start, gently touched her father's face and his somewhat white beard with her hand, then turned and left.
She knew she still had things to do and she couldn't waste time here.
The court meeting went on as usual, Li Zhi passed away, and the edict that ordered Li Yanran to ascend the throne as the empress of the Tang Dynasty was also spread from Chang'an to all parts of the Tang Dynasty.
At the same time, fast horses left Chang'an and went to the fiefdoms of several vassal princes and relatives, asking them to return to Chang'an immediately to mourn.
However, several princes did not agree with Li Yanran as the empress at all. Not only did they refuse to go to Chang'an to mourn, but they also supported Li Zhong as emperor.
Under the pretext that Li Yanran falsely conveyed the imperial edict and intended to rebel, he launched an army to attack.
Changsun Wuji was once again appointed as the prime minister, directly controlling the power of the six ministries in his own hands, and began to order all parties to surrender with his holy will.
Cheng Yaojin also simply appointed Cheng Chubi and Yuchi Huan as the leading generals of the left and right armies, and controlled all the troops and horses in Chang'an in his own hands.
Li Ji also ordered the governors of Zhechong Prefecture in Gyeonggi Province in the name of the governor of Gyeonggi Province to come to Chang'an to report their duties. Anyone who dared not do so would be regarded as a rebellion.
With the handwriting of several princes and the imperial edicts stamped with large seals, the entire Gyeonggi Province Zhechong Commandery expressed their surrender.
Soon he had all the troops and horses in Gyeonggi Province under his control.
The Su local government also ordered the border troops from all over the world to strictly guard the borders, and anyone who dared to send troops without authorization would be regarded as a rebellion.
At the same time, he mobilized troops from various places to attack the Duwei Mansion and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against several princes who launched a rebellion.
Di Renjie rode alone to the navy station with the emperor's imperial edict and seal. After seeing it, Liu Rengui also expressed his compliance with the imperial edict and supported Li Yanran as emperor.
At the same time, under the command of Di Renjie, the troops of the Navy were mobilized to begin to assemble to support their march north to Pyongyang.
Xue Rengui was stationed in Goguryeo, and he also received a letter from the deposed prince Li Zhong, inviting him to use all the troops in Goguryeo and go south to King Qin.
However, he was put aside by Xue Rengui. In his opinion, Li Zhong was not a good man and was not worthy of being the leader of the Tang Dynasty.
If he sends troops now, it will definitely cause a huge crisis for Datang.
Although he was unhappy with the idea of a woman being the emperor, he also knew that his current achievements were inseparable from Li Yanran.
So he is also waiting.
If Li Yanran really wants to call her back to Chang'an to report on her duties, it means that she has no tolerance for others, so she will send troops to serve the king and support the former crown prince Li Hong as emperor.
If Li Yanran doesn't take action against herself, it means that she understands the general situation and takes the overall situation into consideration. Even if the other party is a woman, as long as it is for the good of the Tang Dynasty, he will accept it.
"General, I have received military information. Navy Commander Liu Rengui is mobilizing troops and horses. I don't know what he wants to do!"
The personal guard rushed directly to Xue Rengui and told him the information he had just received.
"Liu Rengui? Does he want King Qin or does he want to capture me?"
Hearing this information, Xue Rengui also frowned.
"Great Governor, the envoy from Chang'an is here!"
Just when Xue Rengui was struggling, Di Renjie finally arrived.
The two met at the Governor's Mansion. Di Renjie directly read out Li Yanran's imperial edict, strictly ordering Xue Rengui to guard Goguryeo and not to use troops easily.
Xue Rengui was relieved after hearing this and saluted directly to express that he would obey the imperial edict and support Li Yanran as emperor.
Then he also told Liu Rengui's unusual behavior, saying that he could send troops to quell the rebellion if necessary.
However, Xue Rengui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Di Renjie said that these were his intentions and that Liu Rengui had already taken the lead in supporting Li Yanran.
Di Renjie immediately sent someone to convey the intentions of Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui back to Chang'an at an accelerated speed of 800 miles.
After receiving the news, the heart that was still hanging in the air finally dropped. Since the border army was fine, and Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui were fine, it would be very simple to deal with a few incompetent princes.
Under Su Dingfang's instructions, troops from all directions gathered, and the rebellion of Li Zhong and others was quickly wiped out. Several princes were either defeated or killed, or were captured without mercy. After capturing them, the situation in Datang was calmed down instantly.
After stabilizing the situation, Li Yanran also held a grand enthronement ceremony, and firmly sat on the throne of Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in full view of the public.
As an emperor, Li Yanran also showed his ruthless side.
First, the Wang Zhisong incident greatly weakened the power of the four major families.
Then he ordered the observation envoys from various places to come to Beijing to report on their duties, and then changed the garrisoned defense areas.
But those who disobey will be killed.
After taking the power of the Tang Dynasty into her own hands, she also developed the economy and vigorously cultivated new crops such as corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes.
At the same time, the idea of hybrid rice was proposed and handed over to the College of Agriculture for experimentation.
After these, he vigorously supported the shipbuilding industry, ordered Datang to develop ocean-going ships, and proposed a five-year plan and ten-year ambitions.
Then he named the New World Tangzhou, appointed Li Daosan as the pioneer, and supported the people's immigration.
At the same time, she also ordered the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War to gather skilled craftsmen to vigorously develop gunpowder, firearms, and artillery.
It is absolutely impossible to turn these four great inventions belonging to China into weapons for other countries to invade China.
In addition, the post of Doctor of Science and Technology has been established to be awarded to those who have new inventions.
After a series of policies implemented by Li Yanran, Datang's national power was booming, the people had enough food and clothing, and the economy was rising steadily.
Not only has food production reached new highs, but workshop inventions are also emerging one after another.
The power of the Tang Dynasty was stable, and Wu Zetian, as mentioned before, left the court and settled in Nian'an Temple next to Qianling Mausoleum, where she accompanied Li Zhi every day, chanting sutras and praying for blessings.
Just when the Tang Dynasty was fully armed, Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin died of illness one after another.
While Li Yanran felt regretful, she also started a new expansion of Datang.
First, he gathered 400,000 elite troops and went south to destroy the Nanzhao Kingdom. Then he appointed Su Dingfang as the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Army and directly entered Tianzhu.
Facing the unparalleled lions of the Tang Dynasty, coupled with the successfully developed sudden artillery, Tianzhu had no power to resist.
In three years, all of Tianzhu fell, and Su Dingfang also died of illness on his way back to the imperial court.
Later, Li Ji also died of illness in Chang'an, and all the princes who supported Li Yanran's ascension to the throne had passed away.
Their sons replaced their fathers and fought on the front line of the Tang Dynasty's expansion.
At the same time, Li Yanran also used Baekje people such as Hei Te Changzhi, Tang Xiujing, Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie, Li Kaigu, Cheng Wuting and others to develop the world for the Tang Dynasty.
A few years later, the border of the Tang Dynasty was already bordering the Arab Empire and the Byzantine Empire. The two sides also experienced several battles, all of which ended in the victory of the Tang Dynasty.
But the journey was too long, so Datang could only shake hands with them and make peace, sign a non-aggression treaty, and the three parties would exchange their needs.
Just when Datang was steadily rising and became invincible, Li Yanran called Li Hong to his side.
The two went to Nian'an Temple where Wu Zetian lived together, and the mother and son had a long talk.
The next day, Li Yanran suddenly issued an order to abdicate the throne to Li Hong, leaving behind a map of the world and ambitions for the future technology tree.
Under Li Hong's gaze, he stepped onto the carriage, and Li Feng drove forward slowly.
In the end, Li Yanran also disappeared in Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty, and the vast sea of people.
Auntie, goodbye!
Goodbye, Hongdi!
Goodbye, Tang Dynasty!
Goodbye, world!
Goodbye, forever!
She knew she still had things to do and she couldn't waste time here.
