Chapter 492: A bite back

Hmph, Yuan Ziyan sneered again, Queen Wang's maiden group is not powerful, this maiden uncle is not as hard as the eldest grandson Wuji.

For Liu Zheng's cowardice, the eldest grandson Wuji and others were very disdainful, but their attitude had already shown that it was like water that could not be taken back.

"Your Majesty, the princess's untimely death is a matter of great importance, and it should be handed over to Dali Temple for detailed review, and it cannot be determined that it is the queen's crime based on one's own judgment." The eldest grandson Wuji said stubbornly, scolding Liu Zheng in his heart, you don't care about your own niece, but let me sing blackface here.

"Lord eldest grandson, when I arrived, the queen had not long left, and the little princess still had residual warmth, and the imperial doctor also checked it, saying that she died of suffocation." Yuan Ziyan said in a cold tone.

"At the time of the incident, everyone knew that the national teacher and Wu Zhaoyi hurriedly returned to the palace, as if they had known in advance that something had happened." The eldest grandson Wuji said.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Ziyan's face was gloomy.

"If the cause of the princess's death is suspected, everyone in Meng Lanxuan is suspicious, and the national teacher and Wu Zhaoyi will not escape the involvement. The queen already has a crown prince, and Wu Zhaoyi is His Majesty's new favorite, and the momentum is flourishing, it is difficult to say, it is difficult to say......"

"Say!"

"It's hard to say that it wasn't Wu Zhaoyi who killed her daughter with her own hands and took the opportunity to blame the queen!" Eldest Sun Wuji raised his head and said loudly.

Several old ministers fainted directly, and then were quickly carried out of the hall, Li Zhi's face was extremely pale, and Yuan Ziyan's face was even more pale, and his teeth were clenched.

"Eldest grandson Wuji, in order to exonerate the queen, you really do everything. Queen Wang and Wu Zhaoyi are both the wives of His Majesty, in order to clear the suspicion of the queen. You don't need to buckle such a big hat for Wu Zhaoyi, right? Yuan Ziyan said: "How many mothers in the world will murder their children? ”

"Wuji naturally doesn't know, but the national teacher has never been born, so he should feel the same way as me." The eldest grandson Wuji argued: "The words of the national teacher are also contradictory. Everyone in the world knows that the national teacher does things fairly. Why do you try your best to favor Wu Zhaoyi and exclude the queen? Could it be that the national teacher wants to push Wu Zhaoyi to the position of queen? ”

"If you talk about character and talent, where is Wu Zhaoyi not suitable to be a queen?" Yuan Ziyan did not deny it, raised his chin proudly slightly, and asked coldly.

Several more ministers fainted and fell to the ground, I don't know if they were pretending to be or not. The national teacher does not play cards according to common sense, and often speaks amazingly. But today is too red, isn't it? The hearts of the ministers above the court have been tempered thousands of times, and at this moment, I feel that I can't bear it, and there are straight cracks in the sparse uproar!

"National Teacher!" The eldest grandson Wuji was so angry that his face turned blue. With a posture of openness, he said: "The queen said that she was Wu Zhaoyi's benefactor, and she was brought from Ganye Temple, so that Wu Zhaoyi was able to reunite with the Son of Heaven." The queen has become the head of the court. Mother of the world. There is also the crown prince Chenghuan under his knees, and the queen is a famous show, knowledgeable and reasonable, although there are rumors of discord with Wu Zhaoyi, he will not be stupid enough to kill the princess to make a mistake for himself! ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to vouch for the queen with his net worth!" Chu Suiliang also knelt down, kowtowed, and there was a small piece of Yin Hong's blood on the ground.

There are many voices that responded to the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang. Liu Zheng stood there very embarrassed, not knowing which side he should express his position to. simply closed his eyes and fainted, in fact, everyone could see that he was pretending.

Wu Mei's killing of her daughter is pure nonsense, because she herself has alibi evidence and went to pick up Yuan Ziyan. But this does not rule out that she did not order others to do it, although Queen Wang is entangled in all kinds of unfavorable evidence, but there is really no need to smear herself.

Li Zhi was silent, and said for a while: "This matter will be discussed later!" ”

After retiring from the court, the ministers shook their heads and sighed, although the palace blocked all news, but the rumors about this matter also spread rapidly in various versions.

However, since the emperor relented and explained that he would seriously and thoroughly investigate the matter, then the queen could still be saved, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But the eldest grandson Wuji really couldn't swallow this bad breath, and felt that Liu Zheng was too special, and he didn't say a word at a critical time, did he think that if the queen stepped down, he would be better?

So, the eldest grandson Wuji ordered someone to find Liu Zheng again, and when he came up, he scolded him with a slap on his head and face, and wanted to slap him a few times, and said angrily: "Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng, you have been the prime minister for so many years, there is no distinction between right and wrong, the queen is in a deep quagmire, but you leave it alone, and let that Wu Mei and Yuan Ziyan control the back court and the court, won't women be in charge of the world in the future?" ”

"Lord Eldest Sun, I also know more or less about the queen's temperament, she is too arrogant, and she has not made friends with anyone in the palace. Although Concubine Xiao Shufei often walks around, they are just using each other, and they are already the simplicity of the queen, and they are definitely not Xiao Shufei's opponents, let alone Wu Zhaoyi? Liu Zheng sighed.

"And what are you going to do about it?" The eldest grandson Wuji said angrily: "You can't watch the queen die, right?" ”

"Of course not, but there are not many people in the palace who intercede for the queen, and that Wu Zhaoyi is usually popular and popular. Right now, His Majesty is furious again, Wu Zhaoyi will definitely not be able to move, and she can only sacrifice her to protect the queen. Liu Zheng sighed.

"What do you mean?" The eldest grandson Wuji didn't understand.

"Concubine Xiao Shufei also passed by Meng Lanxuan that day, but she went half an hour earlier than the queen, Concubine Xiao's move was nothing more than a gesture of goodwill to Wu Zhaoyi, the grass on the wall." Liu Zheng said.

"Do you want to blame Concubine Xiao?" The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly realized, frowned and said: "Although this Concubine Xiao Shu is not dead, she has a bad character, and it has even been explained that the palace maid died a mysterious death, maybe she should have died a long time ago!" It's just that Concubine Xiao Shufei has become a scapegoat, and Wu Zhaoyi is a victim, but I am afraid that she will be even more pitied by His Majesty. ”

"Therefore, the queen's throne must be kept, even if she is not in love with Your Majesty in the future, she must be higher than Wu Zhaoyi in terms of power." Liu Zheng said listlessly.

"I said Liu Xiang, can you finish the sentence in one breath? Since love is not there, how can it be preserved? ”

"Hey, Your Majesty is merciful, my brother-in-law is dying, if he dies at this time, he may be able to save the queen's life." Liu Zheng said that tears were raining down, and he arched his hand to say goodbye to the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji finally figured it out, it turned out that Liu Zheng's performance was just a superficial phenomenon, and no one hoped that the queen would be favored for a long time more than him. The emperor and queen are not harmonious, and the queen has no biological son, so she is now involved in a murder case and is in danger.

Presumably, Liu Zheng had already sent a letter to his brother-in-law, explaining the situation, and hinting that if his brother-in-law died at the right time, maybe His Majesty's heart would be soft and he would forgive the queen.

Liu Zheng forced his brother-in-law to die, and his heart was not a taste, so he was seriously ill, and he had not been to the court for a long time, and because of the waste of government affairs, he was replaced by someone else, despite this, Liu Zheng still felt sincerely afraid and closed his door.

Besides, Li Zhi, in the end, remembered the love of husband and wife, and came to the main hall in person, and saw that the guards were strict and the queen's bedroom was deserted, and his heart was also very uncomfortable.

The queen is arrogant and arrogant, and there is no one in her eyes, and now she is so neglected, in Li Zhi's imagination, the queen at this time should have messy hair, haggard face, crying, and even crying when she sees herself.

However, when he walked into the main hall, he heard the queen's voice scolding the palace people: "Ridiculous, since the day of birth, this palace has used silver cups and jade bowls, and has never drunk old tea, you bold slave dares to drink cold water for this palace!" Come on, drag it down and play 30 boards, long memory! ”

Li Zhi sighed slightly, this point is too different from Wu Mei. Wu Mei and the palace people are like a family, and even dine at the same table. Many people say that she is pretentious, but in Li Zhi's opinion, Wu Mei's actions are not like pretending, because she does it whether she is in front of or after people.

After walking in, Li Zhi was even more disappointed, the queen was still the original queen, arrogant, commanding, neatly dressed, delicate makeup, and never forgot her noble background.

Seeing Li Zhi's arrival, a trace of evocative surprise flashed in the queen's eyes, but it was only an instant that she disappeared, only to see her get up, walk extremely elegantly, and give a light salute, "The concubine knocks to see Your Majesty." ”

"Queen, please." Li Zhi took a step forward and helped the queen up, and the queen was moved, but she took a step back, invited Li Zhi to take a seat, and said: "Your Majesty, even if you and I are husband and wife, we should abide by the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and don't let the bad customs outside the palace break the rules." ”

Li Zhi was silent, what Queen Wang meant was not to guard the subordinates, and to maintain a very high level of education at all times.

"Queen, the purpose of my visit this time, I think you also know, what can you say directly to me." Li Zhi nodded and said.

"I'm afraid that Your Majesty doesn't like to hear it."

"If you don't say it, how do you know I don't like to hear it?" Li Zhi showed a smile, but he was actually deliberately relieving the tense atmosphere.

The concubine said bluntly. Wu Mei bewitched the saint, mutilated her own daughter, and blamed the queen, the crime was extremely evil, and Ling Chi should be executed for the crime! Queen Wang said through gritted teeth.

"Empress, I believe that Wu Zhaoyi is innocent."

"Hmph, Your Majesty is blinded by it, aren't you afraid that you will be infamous as a faint monarch for eternity in the future? As soon as the concubine is the queen of the Tang Dynasty, she should swear to death and admonish directly, and if she does not get rid of Wu Mei, there will be endless disasters in the palace! The queen said in a loud voice.

Li Zhi sighed secretly, the queen's background is inconsistent with his mind, when his father did something wrong, the queen mother often reminded him, but every time he will choose the right time, not only to give the emperor a step, but also to clearly express his meaning.

For example, once, Wei Zheng bumped into his father, the queen mother was sick at the time, and she was still a saint in gorgeous clothes.

In that era, there were many officials who were protected by the queen mother, so her death has been missed by future generations, and the queen did not know how to be flexible and self-righteous, but she was afraid that it was a huge main hall, and she couldn't even find a few palace people who spoke for her.
