Chapter 479: Anger is red

"What does it mean that the national teacher is gone?" At this time, Li Ji had already been worshiped as a commonplace, and when he heard this, he immediately became anxious and asked repeatedly.

"Hurry up Xuanwu Zhaoyi and enter the hall!" Li Zhi said loudly.

"Your Majesty, Wu Zhaoyi is a woman in the back court, how can she come to the court rashly, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice!" The eldest grandson Wuji immediately retorted.

"When have you arrived, you're still talking about this!" Li Ji's eyes were on fire, and he reprimanded loudly unceremoniously.

Li Zhi motioned to the eunuch to pass the word, and soon Wu Zhaoyi, who had a big belly, walked up to the hall with a panicked face, and even forgot to salute, and said with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, yesterday my stepmother and Mrs. Taishi Ling had a catch, and the concubine sent people to urge her several times and did not return. Later, the concubine thought that the stepmother lived at the lady's place, but she didn't expect to order someone to pick up a change of clothes early in the morning, saying that the stepmother had left in the middle of the night! The concubine hurriedly sent people along the road to look for it, but she couldn't see the whereabouts of her stepmother, and then found her belongings near the island in the middle of the lake! Your Majesty, Your Stepmother, She, She's ......"

Wu Zhaoyi had tears in her eyes, and she didn't dare to continue imagining, but the eldest grandson Wuji didn't think so, and said: "Wu Zhaoyi has nothing to worry about, the national teacher cherishes life the most, is it possible to commit suicide?" ”

"Adults are confused! What if someone frames his stepmother? Wu Zhaoyi immediately looked at each other angrily, and hated the ruthlessness of the eldest grandson Wuji in his heart.

The eldest grandson Wuji was robbed by a Zhaoyi, he couldn't hold it on his face, and snorted coldly: "The national teacher's hands and eyes are all over the sky, who can hurt her?" ”

"The heart is sinister, have you forgotten that I just came out of death row?" Wu Mei did not show weakness.

At this time, Li Ji had already run out of the hall and rushed towards the island in the middle of the lake. Li Zhi hurriedly called Wu Mei and hurried there in a dragon chariot.

The ministers who were good friends with Yuan Ziyan in the DPRK naturally trotted all the way to follow, towards hostile forces such as Changsun Wuji. is holding the mentality of watching the excitement, and I wish Yuan Ziyan was dead.

When he came to the lake, there was no wave, Li Ji was already looking around like crazy, and clues came out one after another. There are traces of broken branches next to it, the grass below is chaotic, and there are many people by the lake. even found Yuan Ziyan's lost jade pendant.

All the evidence shows that Yuan Ziyan was indeed in danger and was most likely thrown into the lake.

Wu Mei covered her mouth and cried bitterly. Of course, this kind of ending was not what she wanted to see, and then Li Chunfeng and his wife also rushed over. When Chu Ling'er learned the truth, her regretful intestines were about to be broken, and she shouldn't have persuaded Yuan Ziyan to drink so much wine. She shouldn't have been left alone.

Li Zhi's anxious group turned straight. The heart is like angina, both parents have passed away, and now there is only one stepmother, how can I bear it.

"Your Majesty, Lord Taishi Ling asked for astrology, why don't you do a divination on this scene?" Chu Suiliang reminded that Li Chunfeng, who was panicked, also came back to his senses and tried to adjust his emotions. Soon the hexagram came out, and it was a fire and water situation. proved that Yuan Ziyan was indeed framed by the villain, and should have been thrown into the lake.

As soon as he heard this, Li Ji took off his coat, came to the lake and jumped in without hesitation, and Li Zhi also hurriedly sent someone to salvage it. Wu Zhaoyi came to Li Chunfeng with tears in his eyes and asked, "My lord, since it is not profitable, can there be a turning point in this hexagram?" ”

Li Chunfeng also kept staring at the hexagram, pondered for a moment, and said: "The fire is on the water, and there is nothing to achieve, and there seems to be a glimmer of life." ”

Everyone was silent, as long as people stayed in the water for a few minutes, most of them were vegetative people, not to mention that after such a long time, anyone would have to die.

The eldest grandson Wuji also sighed heavily, he met the opponent in chess, he had been fighting with Yuan Ziyan for so many years, but he didn't expect the opponent to be reimbursed in this way, it was really boring.

More than a dozen boats on the lake were salvaged in all directions, and Li Ji was even more up and down in the water, looking for Yuan Ziyan's whereabouts everywhere, Li Ji couldn't cry at this time, even if he could find Yuan Ziyan's body.

Yuan Ziyan will not leave for no reason, and he was drunk yesterday, so he is more likely to be killed. Li Chunfeng was silent, Chu Ling'er was crying blindly, and she didn't know what to persuade her husband, she suddenly got up and wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake, but was pulled by Li Chunfeng: "Madam, don't add to the chaos!" ”

Chu Ling'er sat on the ground with her face covered sadly, tears flowed uncontrollably, and she indirectly killed her sister.

Nearly an hour later, and there was still no progress. Someone suggested that maybe the person was gone, and the corpse would float up, and it was difficult to say at the foot of the rockery.

In fact, it will take several days to really surface, but with a glimmer of hope, everyone still rushed to the rockery dozens of meters away. There are many strange rocks here, which was very popular with Yang Guang during the Sui Dynasty, and he frequently went here for boating in the summer, but after Li Yuan succeeded to the throne, he felt unlucky, and then dug a new lake, and this place was gradually deserted.

"Your Majesty, look, what is that?" Wu Zhaoyi's face changed, and he pointed to a bush not far away and said.

A wisp of women's clothes can be vaguely seen floating on the water, Wu Mei is very familiar with Yuan Ziyan's life, and naturally she is more sensitive than others.

Li Ji immediately swam towards this place again, because of the proximity to the rockery, the water level is getting shallower and shallower, and finally wade through the water, after picking up the grass, this tough guy who has killed countless enemies on the battlefield let out a hysterical cry: "Purple smoke! ”

Sure enough, it's Yuan Ziyan! The hearts of the people sank, and they also ran in that direction. With tears in his eyes, Li Ji bent over and picked up Yuan Ziyan from the water with trembling arms, but he suddenly found that there was still a rope tied to his waist, and he hurriedly pulled it up, and it turned out to be a big stone weighing dozens of catties.

Li Ji drank violently, untied the rope, threw the stone to the shore with one hand, and then hugged Yuan Ziyan's cold body tightly and swam back to the shore again.

"Lord Sikong, stepmother, can godmother still be saved?" Wu Mei asked in a trembling voice.

"Don't come here!" Li Ji's mind was blank, holding Yuan Ziyan tightly and refusing to let go, just sitting in a distraction, Li Zhi stood with his hands down, tears couldn't stop flowing, and many ministers also wiped their tears.

"Hey, I want to be a generation of heroines of the national teacher, but I don't want to end up like this, it's embarrassing." The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and sighed.

"Your Majesty, the minister is old, but I beg to resign from the official position and go home to farm." Li Ji said in prostration.

"I have lost my stepmother, why does Lord Sikong want to leave me again?" Li Zhi held back with tears.

"The minister once followed Li Mi in Wagangzhai, and then took refuge in Li Tang because of Ziyan, and received the grace of three generations of kings, although he had already had the heart of retreating, he was struggling to stay because of Ziyan." Li accumulated tears like rain: "Now that the purple smoke incense has disappeared, I want to bury her alive, and from now on I will guard her tomb and never be separated." ”

"This?" Li Zhi was a little embarrassed, he knew a little about the grievances between his father and Li Ji, who didn't know about his father's domineering, and said as politely as possible: "I already know the meaning of my lord, but the national teacher is my stepmother and my father's best friend before his death, so he should accompany the burial of Zhaoling." ”

A fierce light appeared in Li Ji's eyes, his teeth were clenched, his woman couldn't love her when she was alive, could she still be Li Shimin's winner when she died?

"Then Your Majesty will kill the old minister, otherwise the national teacher will definitely be taken away!" Li Ji's eyes were red, he got up and picked up Yuan Ziyan, and turned his head to leave.

"My lord! My lord! Wu Mei dragged her bulky body and chased after her, begging: "My lord, even if you have to leave, you should let Wu Mei change her clothes for her stepmother." ”

"If Wu Zhaoyi is really good for her, find out the murderer, in my opinion, this person should be the same person as killing King Chen's biological mother." Li Ji strode away.

"Can't go!"

There was a shout from behind, and it was the eldest grandson Wuji who chased after him, and said coldly: "Li Ji, the national teacher died unexpectedly, and he should be buried with a national ceremony." And if you desecrate the body of the national teacher like this, is it the way of a courtier? ”

"Phew, eldest grandson old thief, you have been against Ziyan all day long, I can't wait for her to end up like this! People are gone, why bother to be coy, what's the use of mourning behind you! Li Ji said blatantly.

"It's the other way around, it's the other way around!" The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned, and said to Li Zhi: "Your Majesty, you have heard it, Li Ji is dissatisfied with the imperial court, but I am afraid that he also has the intention of rebellion, so he should be seized and interrogated!" ”

"Eldest grandson Wuji, don't disturb the Purple Smoke Soul again!" Li Jisheng was so angry that he flew up and kicked on the stomach of the eldest grandson Wuji, only to see a figure draw a perfect parabola in the air, and then fell heavily into the water, splashing white waves.

The eldest grandson Wuji kept fluttering in the water, Li Zhi hurriedly sent someone down to rescue, and Li Ji was guarding the shore, as long as the eldest grandson Wuji was close, he had to kick him down again.

The eldest grandson Wuji's friends naturally went to stop Li Ji, and how could Cheng Biting Jin and the others let their good brothers suffer, they all shouted and surrounded them, and the civil and military ministers looked at each other angrily, and even scolded, and some of them had already tore up.

The eldest grandson stood in the water in embarrassment, his clothes were soaked, dripping water, and he didn't forget to reprimand Li Ji, and Li Ji did not show weakness.

Li Zhi on the side didn't know who to help, so he had a splitting headache and had to sit down to rest. "Hey, how is this good, at the critical moment, I, the emperor, didn't work at all."

Of course, Wu Mei looked at Li Ji and said, "Your Majesty, when Lord Sikong was given the surname Li, it was intended to be like a brother and a family with the emperor. ”

"But, that one is also my uncle!" Li Zhi was helpless.

"Hey, the eldest grandson was not like this before, he was very steady and cautious, how could he become like this as soon as the emperor left." Wu Mei said angrily.

Li Zhi's face was also gloomy, Li Ji's words and deeds were lost because of excessive sadness, but the eldest grandson Wuji was purely looking for fault and taking the opportunity to eradicate dissidents.

At this moment, Li Chunfeng, who had been silent, stood up, walked between the two teams, first saluted Li Ji, and then said, "My lord, can you find that Senior Sister is different?" ”

Li Ji was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look down, Yuan Ziyan at this time was like a sleeping baby, but it was indeed breathless. (To be continued......)
