Chapter 667: Three Lives and Three Promises (30)
Taichu Palace, Wucheng Palace.
The court meeting became a court sheath.
The Empress Wu stood high on the throne, holding her forehead with her hands, and the cold light in her eyes was faint.
Overnight, there were many killings, and what the blade pointed at was still her internal favorite, even if it involved the infighting of the royal family, but she no longer had the mind to whitewash the peace, and she didn't care about leaving dignity for anyone's family.
This can already be regarded as a conspiracy of dissent, ill-intentioned, and the evil spirit that has been silent in her heart for several years is surging.
For a moment, she wanted to put all the people kneeling at the bottom of the stairs into prison, torture them, weave melons and vines, and use bloody means to let the court know that her reverse scales were not touchable by anyone.
The cold gaze swept over everyone one by one.
The three royal county kings of Ping'en, Li Chongfu, Xinyang Wang, Wu Chongmin, Gaoyang Wang, and Wu Chongxun knelt in front, followed by the untitled prince, Wu Yanhui and Wu Chongqian, and then the people involved in the case last night, including the guards of Shendu Yuan, and a cadre in Yongfengli, knelt all over the ground in the main hall.
Yang Siqiao, who was assassinated and wounded, also lay on the blue carpet of the main hall, cold sweat on his forehead.
There are her grandsons, her nephews, palace attendants, descendants of generals and ministers, and generals of the Beiya Forbidden Army.
Implicated, the crown prince Li Xian, the prime minister Li Dan, the king of Ding, the king of Wuji, and the king of Liang are all killed? To destroy the balance of the court that she has worked so hard to maintain?
Whose good calculations, thorough and impermeable, can catch her off guard? Or is it true that her internal favor is already angry and resentful, provoking the royal family and the opposition to become enemies?
Empress Wu's body was wrapped in layers of coolness, and the hand on her forehead was pressed slightly, and her green tendons jumped slightly, "Quan Ce, come to me"
Quan Ce left the table, stepped forward slowly, stepped on the Danqi, came to the side of the throne step by step, and stood still.
Angzang is heroic, elegant and handsome, and in one body, the face is still green, but the spirit has been magnificent.
Empress Wu looked at him for a while, the smile on her lips, she couldn't hide it, she had the right to make a decision, she was much more comfortable, changed her sitting posture, and looked down at the bottom of the stairs.
"Wu Chongxun, there is poison in the wine jug, you don't drink it, but you force Zhang Tongxiu to drink it, can you be guilty?"
"Minister, the minister is really wronged" Wu Chongxun shouted and hit the sky, kneeled a few steps, and did not hesitate to reveal the filth in his heart, "Last night's banquet, the king of Xinyang sat at the table, and he was on top of me, everyone hugged him, and even Chongqian greeted him, and the minister was snubbed, and he was not angry, so he made it difficult for Zhang Langzhong, I really don't know where the poison came from, and His Majesty is aware ......of it."
Wu Chongxun kowtowed to the ground, and there was a bang.
Empress Wu snorted coldly and ignored it anymore, "Wu Chongmin, you have done a good job as the head of the Xiangwang Mansion, but you have become the head of the Fengyue team of Xiao Ju, so you behave, but the Xiangwang instructed?" ”
"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Prime Minister, the long history is idle, the minister has nothing to do, the eldest brother is the prime minister, he works all day long, and the minister has no one to take care of, so he is wandering, His Majesty begs for forgiveness, and the minister is willing to change his past wrongs and return to the right path" Wu Chongmin is much calmer and calmer, he is just an organizer, clean and clean, and he has not been contaminated at all, even if he is contaminated, his eldest brother will never let him have a mistake.
When Quan Ce heard this, he frowned and glared at him sideways, and Wu Chongmin hung his head in a gloomy manner.
Empress Wu looked at the appearance of the two of them in her eyes, and couldn't help but think of the early formation of the Yushan Army in the past, testing artillery, Wu Chongmin disregarded his safety, and personally went down to operate, Quan Ce kicked angrily, and Wu Chongmin bared his teeth.
A hint of a smile came to his lips and he took it back.
Empress Wu still didn't ask, and turned to Li Chongfu, "You are responsible for guarding the construction site of the Hefu Mansion, but you left your post without permission, so that the thieves have an opportunity to take advantage of it, what is the reason?" ”
"Because Yang Siqiao, the palace supervisor of Shendu Yuan, was assassinated and injured, the minister led the army to support the arrest" Li Chongfu's voice floated, his courage was very weak, and his arms supporting his body trembled all the time.
Empress Wu turned to Yang Siqiao again, "You were assassinated, the injury was not life-threatening, and you instructed the guards to go to the Hebi Palace to round up, but in the end, the thieves caused trouble at the construction site of the Crane Mansion, how to explain it?" ”
"Old slave, old slave doesn't know" Yang Siqiao stood up on his knees, the wound on his chest and abdomen burst out, and the blood stains were red.
Empress Wu stopped interrogating and fell into a deep groan.
The courtiers in the palace, the clear-eyed people such as Di Renjie and Song Jing, gradually became clear, and the Empress Wu obviously did not want to investigate the truth, but was just planning to give Zhang Yizhi's brother an explanation.
All parties in the court, the prime minister Li Dan and the king of Ding, Wu Youji, have no different colors, the crown prince Li Xian's eyes are fluttering, and he doesn't know what he is thinking, Liang Wang Wu Sansi has always smiled at people, but now it is extremely gloomy, he has already reined in his edge, and he is kind to others, but he still suffers from unwarranted disasters, how to swallow this breath?
The major factions, to a greater or lesser extent, have been involved, so it seems that the so-called victims are very suspicious.
After careful calculation, since the two Zhang brothers jumped on the stage, they have made big and small moves, but they have never stopped.
Wu Sansi's eyes became dark.
"Passing the decree, Zhang Tongxiu's murder case, Wu Chongxun is the most suspicious, and he can't justify himself, he is forbidden to seize the title, Wu Chongmin is careless, and he will be punished with a cane of thirty, and Pei Guangting Yan Zexian and others will be punished with a cane of twenty"
"Wu Yanhui and Wu Chongqian acted recklessly, remembering that they were still young, they were exempted from punishment, and they were appointed as the leading generals of Wei Zhonglang, and they served before entering the Chang'an Army"
There are thousands of horses in the hall.
Empress Wu's preference for the two Zhang brothers has not been disguised, the eldest son of the crown prince Li Xian, the grandson Li Chongrun, died for slandering them, and Wu Sansi's eldest son could not escape his fate.
Wu Chongqian was named Zhonglang General, which should be regarded as compensation.
Empress Wu is often like this, when she beheaded Zong Chuke, she ordered Zong Jinqing to go out as compensation.
Wu Yanxiu died, so he arranged for Wu Yan'an to go out.
In the eyes of this supreme in the world, she has a gesture of compensation, which is already a kind of grace.
Regardless of whether this is equivalent or not, and regardless of the scarred heart, will it be more painful to put on some more scribbled needle holes?
Quan Ce shook his head slightly in his heart, in the early years, the martial arts queen was determined to improve, and the punishment rewarded the world's great handle, and the punishment was not eclectic, and the court was bloody and bloody, and there were still many sages.
"In the Shendu Yuan arson case, Li Chongfu neglected his duties, dismissed the post of General Lin Wei of the Right Yu, and was punished with a cane of fifty, Yang Siqiao was suspected of being assassinated, and he was dismissed as the palace supervisor of Shendu Yuan, and he was demoted to the Flying Dragon Stable as the envoy of the imperial horse, and he was injured and exempted from the cane."
"The right feather Lin Wei Lanying army should be a general, and they are all guilty, and they will be demoted to three levels in one piece, and they will be punished with twenty rods."
Empress Wu sent everyone down in one go, and judged the two major cases in the form of a gourd case, and everyone's guilt was unwarranted.
The DPRK and China are silent, the needles can be heard, no one opposes or supports, and there is a pool of stagnant water.
Empress Wu sighed.
"Hengguo Gong investigated the case of the murder of the grandson, and it was delayed for a long time, and there was no progress, so he dismissed the post of the Chunguan Shilang, stopped the construction of the Crane Mansion, changed the Bigong Palace to Fengchen Mansion, and took Zhang Yizhi as the Fengchen Order"
"Ye Guogong's office is not good, so he dismissed from the post of young eunuch in Lintai, went out of Henan Road, and did things to appease and collect wind"
Empress Wu didn't say it explicitly, but Zhang Changzong's errand was obviously to compensate the innocent dead folk craftsmen.
"Quan Ce, the case of Chongrun's murder will be thoroughly investigated by you, and the case must be closed as soon as possible."
"Obey the order" is the right to bow down to the order.
He won't laugh when he wins.
One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.
