Lu Xiaoxian guessed correctly, Wu Zetian has been looking forward to Wu Sansi taking Li Xian back to Luoyang as soon as possible, and she has been pestered by a guy named Wang Fangqing these days.

Speaking of Wang Fangqinglai, he is inseparable from Wu Chenghe.

Wu Zetian's health is getting worse and worse, which makes Wu Chenghe's yearning for the position of the crown prince increasing day by day. He didn't know that Wu Zetian had already sent Wu Sansi to pick up Li Xian, and he thought that he had an opportunity, so he thought of a way.

He spent a lot of money to hire a drum troupe, and every day outside the noon gate beat gongs and drums, played boards and sheng, and made a lot of noise. Wu Zetian was upset and asked someone to summon the leader Wang Fangqing into the palace.

Wu Zetian was never soft on her imperial relatives who opposed her, but she rarely embarrassed ordinary people.

She asked kindly, "What are you going to do here?" ”

Wang Fangqing had already prepared for Wu Zetian's questioning, and replied with a straight face: "The grass people have come to petition and hope that Your Majesty will appoint King Wei as the crown prince!" ”

Wu Zetian was stunned, when did even ordinary people care about national affairs.

Seeing that Wu Zetian was silent, Wang Fangqing Zhenzhen said: "The gods are not non-class, and the people are not worshipping non-clans!" Who has the world today, and the Li family is the heir! ”

Wu Chengsi secretly sent someone to train Wang Fangqing for a long time, and this quote from the words of the Jin doctor in "Zuo Chuan" is quite reasonable at first glance.

Wang Fangqing was just a civilian, and Wu Zetian couldn't tell him bluntly that he had gone to pick up Li Xian's matter, so he said perfunctorily: "The great plan to establish a prince relationship for thousands of generations is not a rash decision. You go back first, Rong Zhen will think about it. ”

"If Your Majesty doesn't agree, the grass people won't get up." Wang Fangqing lay on the ground, gritted his teeth, riveted his strength, kowtowed a few times, and cried: "I hope Your Majesty understands the heart of the grass people, and establishes the Wu clan as the heir." ”

Wu Zetian was so entangled that he had nothing to do, and in desperation, he took out a waist card and said, "Don't cry, get up." Don't take people to make trouble at the palace gate. When you want to see me, just show it to the gatekeeper. ”

Wang Fangqing was very happy in his heart, but he said: "Your Majesty does not agree to the grass people, and the grass people will come in the future." ”

"Alright, alright, let's go, I still have a lot of things to do." Wu Zetian waved his hand impatiently.

Out of the palace gate, Wang Fangqing went straight to the inn next to him, and Wu Chenghe, who had been waiting in the room for a long time, hurriedly greeted him and asked, "How is it, what did Your Majesty tell you?" ”

Wang Fangqing said: "Although Your Majesty did not agree to the grass people, it is not far from ten." The emperor also gave the grass people a waist card, saying that the grass people could go to see her at any time. ”

Wu Chengsi was also very happy, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have to strike while the iron is hot, and go every other day or two." When the deed is done, the king will give you a hundred thousand taels of silver. ”

Wang Fangqing seemed to think of something again, and asked Wu Chenghei again: "Your Highness, can those people at the gate of the palace be withdrawn?" ”

Wu Chengsi shook his head: "You can't withdraw, tell them, cheer up, and the daily salary will be doubled compared to before." ”

The next day, Wang Fangqing was arrogant and entered the palace in a big way, which aroused the envy of the onlookers.

When he arrived at the court, Wu Zetian was discussing with the people of the military department about dealing with the Turks.

Wang Fangqing didn't know what to do, so he walked over and chattered: "King Wei is the authentic sect of the Wu clan, and he should be made the crown prince." The imperial heir and the king of Luling are both people with foreign surnames, and if they are made princes, it will be a misfortune for the family and the country......"

Seeing that Wu Zetian ignored him, Wang Fangqing raised his voice and said, "Your Majesty, you can't ignore the will of the people." ”

Wu Zetian was overwhelmed, waved his hand and said, "You go back first." ”

On the third day, Wang Fangqing went again, chattering again, turning back and forth.

Wu Zetian waved his hand: "I have every opportunity to set up a prince, I can't think about it for the time being, you better come back after a while." ”

Two days later, Wang Fangqing felt that he should strike while the iron was hot to take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, so he entered the palace again.

Wu Zetian was annoyed when he saw Wang Fangqing coming again, and before he could open his mouth, he said to Ji Xuan: "Pull this nasty guy out and give him a stick." ”

Ji Ji had long wanted to get rid of this scoundrel, and after receiving the order, he waved his hand, and two guards came up, dragging Wang Fangqing out without touching the ground, and pulled him all the way to the Xianzheng Gate.

Wang Fangqing's ghost cried wolf howl very loudly, and after a while, the front of the Xianzheng Gate was full of court ministers watching the excitement.

Ji Ji pointed at Wang Fangqing and reprimanded loudly: "This thief wants to establish Wu Chenghei as the crown prince and abolish my Li family!" ”

Wu Chengsi's official office was next to it, and this was clearly for Wu Chengsi, and Wu Chengsi, who was hiding in the house, had a red and white face, fidgeting.

"Give me a beating of this traitor." Ji Ji shouted sharply.

Immediately, a few guards rushed up, picked up their palms as big as a pu fan, and slashed and beat Wang Fangqing's mouth, causing Wang Fangqing's ears and nose to bleed, howling like a pig, and shouting in his mouth: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei, come and save me...... Your Highness, you can't see death without saving you......"

The ministers understood what was going on as soon as they heard this, and at the same time they cast a disdainful glance in the direction of Wu Chenghe's official office.

Seeing that the fight was almost over, Wang Fangqing didn't have the strength to shout, so Ji Ji ordered the left and right canes to kill Wang Fangqing.

The drummers gathered outside the palace gate were so frightened that they immediately dispersed when they heard the news that Wang Fangqing had been killed by a rod.

Hearing the news that Wang Fangqing was killed by a rod, Wu Zetian sighed to Ji Ji with some regret and said: "Actually, I know the matter of establishing the prince, and now is not the time to announce it to the world, wait a little longer, there will be a result!" ”

When he said this, Wu Zetian couldn't help but mutter: I don't know if they have arrived in Fangzhou, and they don't see Xian'er.

……

A horse came slowly from the official road and galloped forward. The man on the horse had a calm face, enjoying the scenery as he walked.

Wu Sansi adopted Lu Xiaoxian's suggestion, sent people back to Luoyang in a hurry, and ordered Qiufeng Hall to come out of the nest and rush to Fangzhou within a limited time to ensure Li Xian's safety. For the sake of safety, Wu Sansi stopped at the post station thirty miles away from Fangzhou, and waited for the people from Qiufeng Hall to arrive before entering Fangzhou.

How could Lu Xiaoxian be idle, he asked Wu Sansi for his life, and secretly went to Fangzhou to inquire about the situation first.

Wu Sansi didn't allow it, but he couldn't stand Lu Xiaoxian's repeated persuasion, so he had to agree.

As a result, there is now unfettered leisure.

"Help......" A sharp cry for help interrupted Lu Xiaoxian's good mood.

looked fixedly, but saw four big men chasing a girl. When the girl saw Lu Xiaoxian walking on the official road, her cry became even more urgent.

Seeing this situation, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but smile, it seemed that he was going to stage a good show of heroes saving beauty, and at this moment he even thought of his lines.

When the urging horse approached, he was about to open his mouth to say his appearance, but Lu Xiaoxian was suddenly stunned.

This girl is not very old, but she is too beautiful.

The skin is as greasy as snow, ice muscles and jade bones, there is an amazing beauty beyond age between the eyebrows, the faint willow eyebrows are clearly and carefully modified, the long eyelashes flicker like two small brushes, and the bright pair of big eyes that make people feel dazzling to the point of palpitations, and they are unusually smart and energetic.

Heaven is too eccentric, and all the advantages are concentrated in her alone, which makes almost all girls jealous.

Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian looked stupid, the little girl suddenly became anxious and shouted loudly: "Hey, hey, this son, help me!" Get rid of them! ”

Lu Xiaoxian came back to his senses and flew off the horse in a dashing manner.

"Hey, how do you four big men bully a little girl? It's too much! Lu Xiaoxian was indignant, roared, pulled the little girl behind him, and blocked the middle of the official road.

"Where did you come from, wild boy, get out of here!" The big man didn't stop at first, and reached out to push Lu Xiaoxian.

Of course, Lu Xiaoxian would not be low-key in front of the beauty, he stretched out his hand and brushed it, and the big man rolled and fell far away, humming on the ground, but it was difficult to get up.

The remaining three big men looked at each other, not daring to move any more.

After a little hesitation, one of the older men cleared his throat and said to Lu Xiaoxian: "This son, you may have misunderstood, we are not villains!" ”

"Misunderstanding?" Lu Xiaoxian said, "When I am blind, you four big men are chasing a girl's house, how can this be explained?" ”

The leader showed a wronged expression on his face, and explained with a sad face: "Son, you really misunderstood, she is my young lady, she sneaked out of the house, and we came here on the orders of the master......"

"Don't listen to them, I don't know them at all!" The little girl hiding behind Lu Xiaoxian grabbed the conversation: "They just want to bully me, they want to arrest me and beat me, they are not good people!" ”

The little girl said about the hem of Lala Lu's clothes, and said pitifully: "Childe, look, they bullied me like this, should I teach them a good lesson, and see if they dare to arrest this girl!" ”

From the words of those people just now, Lu Xiaoxian had already heard seven or eight points, and it was estimated that this little girl was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Lu Xiaoxian didn't see a tricky and willful girl, he thought it was very interesting, so he cooperated with her to act.

Lu Xiaoxian scratched his head and whispered to the little girl: "I think forget it, as long as they retreat in the face of difficulties, they have to be forgiving and forgiving!" ”

Although the voice was small, it still fell into the ears of several big men, and their faces sank: they had already explained their intentions, and the other party didn't even take them seriously.

But what's the use of being dissatisfied, in terms of skill, the four of them together are not Lu Xiaoxian's opponents.

After a little hesitation, the leading man arched his hand and said coldly: "You may not know the identity of my master, and it is inconvenient for us to say it clearly." The green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, since the son has to insert this pole horizontally, we have written it down, the mountains do not turn around, or it won't be long before you regret it. ”

Lu Xiaoxian was really not afraid of threats, and smiled indifferently: "If there is any means, I will follow!" ”

The big man at the head glared at Lu Xiaoxian hatefully, and with a wave of his hand, he led the angry brothers to stride away.

Lu Xiaoxian said to the backs of several big men: "A few people go slowly, don't send it!" ”

Seeing a few big men go away, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief.
