In the first year of Taichu, on the fourteenth day after the emperor ascended the throne, Xuan Lang was granted the title of prince, thus creating the first female prince in history.
Before establishing the crown prince, the ministers objected.
Xuan Lang heard his mother-in-law say: "Lang'er is my first child, and has been the heir apparent for eleven years. He is benevolent, filial, heroic, and wise. How can he surpass her and appoint others? Let's leave it at that."
The eighth year of Taichu.
In the Qinxian Hall, the emperor grabbed the inkstone and threw it towards Xuanlang.
Xuan Lang refused to dodge, and Mo Yan slipped heavily from her shoulder. She groaned when she was hit, and raised her head to look at the emperor.
She asked: "Is it my mother or the emperor who hit me?"
The emperor ordered Zhongshu Sheren to depose the prince.
The ninth year of Taichu, the first month
Xuanlang fell seriously ill and fell into a coma during disaster relief in Huizhou. He did not say a word when he was about to die, and only a blank piece of paper was sent back to Kyoto.
The emperor ordered martial law in Kyoto.
"Mingyi, go and bring Xuan Qing and Xuan Liang over. You go there in person," she ordered slowly. "Kill anyone who stops you. No matter who it is."
The last four words reveal the unmistakable bloodiness.
Kyoto is shocked!
