Chapter 16 Single-mindedness

Li Chunfeng was stunned, he didn't know how Shangguan Yi knew about the guards. I saw Shangguan Yi say coldly: "You must not know, Brother Yuan expected that you were not loyal, and entrusted me to lead the guards to inherit the will before going to Qianling. It's a pity that my ability is limited, so the defenders are scattered and scattered, and it has become the situation it is today. ”

He pushed open the door and gave Li Chunfeng an eviction order, "You go." From now on, you and I will be cut off. In the future, we will overthrow Wu Mei, support Li Zhong as the crown prince, and revive the majesty of the guardians, don't come to me crying! ”

Listening to his sharp accusations, Li Chunfeng really didn't want to stay for a second, but he still pleaded bitterly for the purpose of saving people, "Brother Shangguan, it doesn't matter what you think of me. It's just that you have to think about your family, the stakes are high, and if you fail, you ......"

"Humph!" Shangguan Yi angrily pushed him out of the door, "I think you are also a generation of Confucians, and I believe you will not tell you for the time being." If you really do such a despicable thing, Taizong Quanzhi will not let you go! ”

When Li Chunfeng heard the word "Taizong", he was like being struck by lightning, trembling like a leaf in the wind. Shangguan's father and son looked at him with disdain and slammed the door shut. In this way, he was driven out of the Shangguan Mansion under the cold eyes of the whole Shangguan family.

All the way back to the Xishan courtyard in a trance. He fell headlong on the bed, as if all his liliang had been sucked away. He still couldn't think of what role Suppression would play in this matter after the abolition of Shangshu, but the only thing that was certain was that he indirectly pushed Shangguan Yi to death.

He was panicked in his heart, and he really hoped to talk to Tang Ying to relieve his guilt. At this time, he suddenly remembered that Tang Ying had quarreled with him. He recalled what he said word by word, blaming himself for being dizzy in annoyance, and worried about whether Tang Ying would really help Wu Zetian kill someone.

The most important thing is that he can't think of the purpose of Shangguan Yi's question for victory, and he is very worried that Shangguan Yi, who knows about the guardians, will find some powerful warlock and want to attack Wu Mei and hurt Tang Ying at the same time.

Besides, Tang Ying hurried back to Penglai Palace, and was relieved to see Wu Mei sitting in Penglai Palace. Only then did I realize that I was disheveled, and my hair was almost messed up.

Wu Mei was looking at a child's clothes, and seeing that she was so flustered and hurriedly asked the reason, Tang Ying told Wu Mei about Shangguan Yi's question about the Victory Technique. When it comes to winning the victory, it is impossible to bypass Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, their deaths have always been a pain in Wu Mei's heart, she asked Tang Ying: "Did the two of them really harm me with evil magic at the beginning?" ”

Tang Ying said seriously: "It's true. The Xiao clan colluded with the warlock of the Wa Kingdom, Fuji and the people, and the queen used to win, which I saw with my own eyes, and his uncle Liu Zheng admitted it himself. ”

mentioned Liu Zheng, she suddenly remembered that he had begged her to spare Queen Wang from death, but it turned out that because she was going to elope with Li Chunfeng, Wu Mei killed these two women. Therefore, the death of these two people has something to do with her.

Wu Mei muttered: "That's weird, it's not me who uses witchcraft...... she glanced at Tang Ying intentionally or unintentionally, and Tang Ying hurriedly explained: "I practice Taoism, and these evil sects will not do it." ”

Wu Mei hurriedly smiled: "Where did you think of going?" I've seen everything you've done, how can I doubt you? She looked down at the little dress and whispered, "Tomorrow you accompany me to Sanqingguan to pray for blessings, I'm a little uneasy." ”

Tang Ying asked, "Then, do you want me to go to Shangguan Mansion to investigate?" Wu Mei shook her head, "No need, let it be." It's even harder to watch out for them if they are caught rescheduling. ”

Tang Ying could only force himself to do nothing when he heard this. She knows that this is just an episode of history and will not affect Wu Mei's political career, but the terrible truth is often hidden behind historical records, just like the sins suffered by Wu Mei when she was born in her first two children were not recorded at all, who knows what kind of difficulty it will be this time?

She accompanied Wu Mei through a difficult night. Compared to Wu Mei, who was sleeping lightly, she seemed to be in a worse situation, keeping her eyes open, looking at the moonlight through the window lattice.

She was thinking about Li Chunfeng. I don't know if he persuaded Shangguan to move, and I don't know if he has become hateful in his eyes.

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Mei ordered someone to find a set of black gauze clothes, and went to Sanqingguan with simple makeup. In the face of the unknown crisis, Tang Ying's hands trembled unconsciously, she felt that for herself, the struggle between people and people was more terrible than dealing with demons and monsters. Wu Mei looked as indifferent as ever. This kind of Mount Tai collapsed in front of her and her face did not change color, which really made her admire it so much.

Bypassed the Taiye Pond and arrived at the Sanqingguan. Wu Mei asked the little Taoist priest to prepare a ceremony to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters. I sat firmly on the **, as if waiting for the judgment to come. But Tang Ying was restless, her intuition told her that there would soon be a tough battle to fight, and she had to fight with twelve points of spirit to deal with it!

In the Zichen Palace.

Li Zhi sat nervously in front of the bookcase, one elbow resting on the table, and the other holding Shangguanyi's recital. He held his breath and carefully read the recital from beginning to end. It is full of Wu Mei's "crimes" of interfering in court politics, pulling the party for personal gain, framing the virtuous queen Wang, forcing the loyal minister Sun Wuji to death, detaining the two princesses born to Concubine Xiao Shu, and squeezing out the original prince Li Zhong.

Li Zhi raised his eyes and glanced at Shangguan Yi's father and son, their faces full of triumphant joy. To be honest, he feels very uncomfortable now, and even nervously wants to vomit. Although he is also fed up with being a wretched emperor under the light of Wu Mei, he also wants to teach Wu Mei a lesson, so that she can only take care of her own affairs.

But he really didn't expect Shangguan Yi to collect so much evidence. Every single one of these is something he knows or is personally involved in. In all fairness, interfering in the government was originally because he needed help, and forcing the eldest grandson Wuji to death was also because he took the initiative to ask Wu Mei to be a political ally...... He glanced at Shangguan Yi again, how did he think that this old man looked like his uncle Wuji, the eldest grandson who oppressed him back then.

"No...... He has this Jihua too, right? overthrew Mei Niang, and then supported Zhong'er as the prince, and then slowly seized my power? Li Zhi couldn't help muttering in his heart, he felt that it was necessary to consider the matter of the abolition of the queen again. So, he coughed and said, "Aiqing's recital is very detailed, but the evidence is slightly insufficient. I'm afraid the queen won't be able to confess her guilt. ”

Shangguan Yi knew that the emperor was an indecisive character, and when he saw that he retreated, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty." What is written on the fold is a well-known crime. But the old minister still holds her other handles! ”

"Oh?" Li Zhi hurriedly asked: "Say it quickly!" ”

Shangguan Yi arched his hand and said: "The minister has evidence to prove that the queen caused trouble in the palace with the technique of overwhelming victory!" Not only did Queen Wang have many doubts about her tragic death back then, but even now she is still unrepentant and secretly poisoning the concubines in the palace. ”

Li Zhi was shocked, there are a total of three harem beauties in the palace who can speak, and they are all relatives of Wu Mei, who can she harm? So, he asked questioningly: "Who is harmed?" ”

Shangguan Yi said: "Lady Helan Minyue of Wei State! The emperor, Mrs. Wei is young and beautiful, which naturally provokes Wu Mei's jealousy. This couldn't be more obvious. ”

"Nonsense!" Li Zhi waved his hand again and again, "Mei Niang is deeply affected by witchcraft, how can she do such a thing?" He did say this from the bottom of his heart. Because he knows that although Wu Mei is strong, she is a woman with great wisdom. As for dealing with Helan Minyue, do you use such a method?

He was still denying it, and suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him, "Bixia, I am willing to testify that this is indeed the case." ”
