In the first year of Lin De (664 AD), the twenty-second day of the tenth month of winter, the third quarter of the hour.

In the northwest of Penglai Palace, to the east of the Hanlin Office, there is a square plateau. Countless craftsmen and craftsmen, countless vehicles and horses, are building the Lin De Palace. With an area of 5,000 square meters, it will be used as a state banquet hall for the Tang Dynasty after it is completed. The emperor's banquets will be held here, which is an entertainment venue.

The chief engineer of the construction team, Liang Xiaoren, Sijia Siqing, is also a powerful figure. He was responsible for the entire Penglai Palace, including the eastern capital of Luoyang. The so-called Sijia Temple, formerly the Si Nong Temple, was in charge of grain storage. In the words of later generations, the National Food Reserve Administration.

The construction site is mixed, the forbidden army supervises layer by layer, and the site maintains order. Every morning, Wu Kang will take time out to make special rounds here. However, today's inspection seemed a little perfunctory, and after only staying for a quarter of an hour, he went to find Liang Xiaoren.

The two exchanged briefly, left him a letter, and left the construction site in a hurry. The letter is a letter of divorce, left by a female assassin in the post house of Liquan County. Her father, Zhao Zhiman, the governor of Liangzhou, was implicated by the eldest grandson Wuji and beheaded in Chang'an West City.

Before Zhao Zhiman's accident, he had a marriage contract with the Liang family, and the process had been completed, so he was about to marry at the end. So according to the law, Zhao Niangzi is the Liang family, and the Zhao family's crimes will not implicate her. However, the reality is ruthless, and no one can avoid the major crime of rebellion.

The Liang family is no exception, and after the Zhao family had an accident, they unilaterally withdrew from their relatives. However, the law stipulates that the marriage is not over until the parties renounce each other's marriage documents. If Zhao Niangzi insists, his Liang family must marry, otherwise it will be illegal. But this little girl, blinded by hatred, doesn't want the golden beetle's son-in-law.

Wu Kang didn't want to touch her, Xincheng's ex-husband, Sun Quan, was her uncle and grandfather. Because of this relationship, looking at Xincheng's face, she was captured twice in assassination, and she was let go. even gave money, and persuaded her to live again.

However, there is no use for eggs, the little lady is very stubborn, and she goes all the way to the dark. With a pocket iron crossbow and ten gold leaves, he left the Liquan Station. It is estimated that this fool will really practice shooting hard, and then assassinate again. Wu Kang had no idea, took the Wu camp guards, and hurried back to Chang'an.

Yesterday, at three o'clock, I returned to Xiuzhenfang, and I was drunk again. After dinner, I lingered with my daughter-in-law and got bad news: the queen's henchman, the eunuch Li Deguan, came to the door for three days. When I learned that he didn't come back, I would be distraught, anxious and sad, and weep bitterly.

Something big must happen, Wu Kang is anxious, but he is helpless. The palace gates are closed, the curfew is imminent, and you can only stay at home. So insomnia again, the sense of foreboding is even worse, Mei Niang is so anxious, it is definitely not a good thing.

I entered the palace early today, hastily handled official business, handed over the letter to Liang Xiaoren, and immediately went to Penglai Palace. When I walked near the workshop, I saw the German officer from a distance, running towards this side, as if he was burning his buttocks. Wu Kang waved his hand, and the two teams of Yu Linwei left and right from him.

The German officer was panting, his hair wet with sweat, and he ran away with Wu Kang. The words were crying and intermittent: "General Wu is not good, Shangguan Yi is in Zichen Palace, drafting the edict after the abolition." The queen has already gone, general, hurry up, it's too late soon..."

Speaking of this, I could barely cry, and my voice was unpleasant. Wu Kang was struck by lightning, his legs were like lead, and he couldn't move a bit. It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, and what should come will always come. Although he was mentally prepared, when the time came, he was still terrified.

The so-called edict is a notice issued by the emperor to the world. Xitai asked for instructions, and Xitai Shilang went to the official ceremony, and the legal edict was drafted. After the emperor agreed, it would be sent to Xitai, and Xitai would be transferred to Dongtai. Dongtai began to review, and if it could not be passed, the edict would be refuted.

It was still redrafted by Xitai, and then asked the emperor for an edict, and then submitted it to Dongtai for review. And so on until the edict is reasonable. However, the abolition of the military edict, Wu Kang is very sure, and Dongtai will inevitably approve it. Because the governor of Dongtai is Dou Dexuan, the left minister, the standard Guanlongmen valve.

After they approved it, it was issued to the central government for implementation, and the edict officially took effect. The so-called Zhongtai is Shangshu Province, and the six departments are under its jurisdiction. Zuo Suji Zheng Qintai, Si Lie Si Rong, and Tai Chang Bo of the three departments are all the backbone of the army.

You don't have to think about it to know that when the edict arrives in the middle office, it will be implemented quickly. At that time, the poor Mei Niang will live in the cold palace with her bag, and I will live in the cell. Those political enemies, just make up the accusations, they can cut off my head.

Therefore, to sum up, as long as the military edict is abolished and two things are issued, there will be no skills to return to heaven. The only life-saving point, Li Jiu stayed in the middle and did not send it, but unfortunately it is unlikely. Because after the abolition this time, the one who killed a thousand knives was one of the masterminds.

In the face of the catastrophe of killing, people behaved differently, some panicked, some calm. Wu Kang belonged to the latter, and he was scared to tears before, but when it came to the end, he became surprisingly calm. Seven years of corpses and a sea of blood, unable to keep calm, long since the horse leather shrouded.

grabbed Li Deguan and said unhurriedly: "The saint values feelings, and the queen's crying will delay time." So don't be in a hurry, only if you know the crux of the problem, can you prescribe the right medicine. Tell me everything you know, in every detail. ”

Deliberately slowed down, pretending that the sky was not alarmed, and gave him a chance to breathe. The German official immersed in the court, and also had a big heart, and was infected by Wu Kang, and quickly calmed down. Trying to suppress the panic, almost without thinking, the recent situation was stated.

After Wu Kang went to Zhaoling, Mei Niang had a problem and her physical condition was worrying. The doctor diagnosed again, there was still some low-grade fever, and he took medicine for several days in a row, but it had no effect. She was also often sleepy, yawning no matter how long she slept.

The mood fluctuated, and the wind was calm, but because of trivial matters, he suddenly became angry. The German official was cautious and said that in the entire Penglai Palace, in the past half a month, those palace people and eunuchs have all trembled. Even he and Baliang will be scolded inexplicably and even corporal punishment.

What's even more suspicious is that the number of times the queen goes to the toilet has become more and more frequent. Yesterday in half an hour, I went to the toilet five times, and I could only add more toilets. When I wake up every day, I have nausea and retching, and at most half an hour, I return to normal.

Meals have become picky, and in the last three or four days, the taste has changed impermanently. For example, if you eat millet for breakfast, and you want to eat rice for Chinese food, there is almost no order to follow, and the amount of food is also decreasing. There were no hazelnuts in the palace, and I suddenly wanted to eat them, so I sent a personal palace maid to the two cities to purchase.

After listening to what the German official said, Wu Kang quickly summed up: he had a low-grade fever and slept well, his mood was moody, and he was nauseous and retching in the morning. Slight frequent urination, loss of appetite, and picky eating. Oh my God, it can't be that, but it's not scientific!

Suddenly froze in place, with a flash of joy in his eyes, it seemed very likely, I had experienced it myself. His calves began to tremble, his hands clenched into fists, he stared at Li Deguan and said, "Let's speed up the pace, you make a long story short, and pick up the useful ones." ”

The German officer cried again when he heard this, and in the next description, Wu Kang's scalp was numb. Mei Niang was unwell, Li Jiu's cold violence, and Helan clan's provocation made her mentality collapse. She actually thought that the abnormality of her body was that she was disgusted by others, and that Helan cursed her.

So he was frightened, and sent Li Deguan several times to ask Wu Kang for countermeasures. Wu Kang was not in Chang'an, she was desperate, and she went to the doctor in a hurry. Just three days ago, he secretly asked Guo Xingzhen, the old liar, to perform the technique of disgust with victory, intending to resist the curse.

Wu Kang almost cried angrily, my stupid sister, why are you disobedient. What did you say at the beginning, Guo Xing really has a problem, don't entangle with him. Let you be cautious in your words and deeds, and stay in the dormitory honestly, but you should be the wind in your ears. Look at what you've done, disgust is a taboo technique, how can you knowingly commit it?

When the king and queen were abolished, the excuse given by Li Jiu was that the court was tired of winning. The old liar Guo Xingzhen is an arranged trap, waiting for you to make mistakes. You're really honest and dive headlong into it, making the game more difficult. Wu Kang couldn't cry or laugh, Mei Niang, who has always been shrewd, has also become a pig teammate.

The script continued, and at two o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, the great eunuch Wang Fusheng reported it to Li Jiu. With the excuse of abolition, Li Jiu pushed the boat down the river, and after the Xiaochao today, he secretly summoned Shangguan Yi. In the imperial study room of Zichen Palace, he pretended to be angry and complained: The Wu family is tired of winning, how can it be reasonable!

Shangguan Yi cooperated, and said sternly: The queen indulged in willfulness, forgot to practice taboo techniques, and disturbed the peace of the harem. For the sake of the loss of private morality, the people can't be convinced, how can they be the mother of the world? For the sake of the world, for the sake of the country and the people, please depose the Wu clan. Select virtuous people and lead the harem of the heavenly family.

Li Jiushen thought so, and decisively borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, ordered the prime minister, and drafted the edict of abolishing the military. It's a pity that it's not a coincidence, the study cleaning palace person is a spy of the martial family. Xu Juan ran to tell the informant, Mei Niang was almost scared to death, and immediately went to Zichen Hall to tell her grievances.

Wu Kang looked at the palace wall, still calm, and instructed Li Deguan: "Thank you for the reminder, I already know it, and I will naturally deal with it properly." You go back to Penglai Palace, gather everyone, clean every corner, and wait for the queen to return to the palace. ”

The German officer wanted to speak and stopped, but seeing his words, he could only promise to leave. Wu Kang walked along the wall and walked quickly to the Zichen Palace, with a lot of thoughts in his heart. First of all, he cursed Li Jiu, a bastard with a black belly, and used despicable means to calculate his wife. Even though I'm a jerk, I'll never be able to hurt my family.

Secondly, the spirit of war was strong, and this political storm, which had been brewing for more than half a year, finally broke out as scheduled. On the cliff, there is a single-plank bridge, if you cross the bridge safely, it is a broad road; If you fall off a cliff, there will be no bones left.

But fortunately, Li Chunfeng's "new" character was successfully debunked by me. With this killer feature, the solution to this crisis is at least seventy percent certain. Xue's Fallen Martial Group, no matter how strong you are, in the face of the killer weapon, it will collapse.

Walking into the palace wall, stepping into the door of the Zichen Palace, a sneer pulled out from the corner of his mouth. Messy footsteps sounded, and on the left and right sides of the main hall, the Feather Forest Forbidden Army poured out. The tide came over and surrounded him, led by Captain Cui, with an unnatural face: "The sage ordered, it is forbidden to enter, and the general stays." ”

Wu Kang's face sank like water, staring at the middle-aged captain, and he was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but there was a commotion behind him. Yulin was separated from the left and right, and an old guy came over, it was Qi Bi He Li. He bowed first, and then said with a pleasant face: "General Wu, please go back, the saint has something to do, and we are not allowed to disturb him." ”

Sure enough, it was premeditated, Wu Kang said lightly: "In February of the third year of Longshuo, the general went to the imperial court. The original Yanran Protectorate, migrated back to the rule of Su, and was renamed Hanhai Metropolitan Protectorate. Tiele is completely attached, and Mobei is stable until now. Because of this merit, your eldest son, Qi Mingming, was promoted to the position of Fengyuan doctor. ”

The so-called Fengren doctor is the director of the Fengyuan Bureau, and the official rank is from the five grades. It belongs to the Sixth Bureau of the Central Imperial Palace, manages the emperor and queen, and is the head of the driver. He Li was silent, and his dark old face gradually became embarrassed. Qian Yanran was the protector of the mansion, and he was reminded by him, so he made a great contribution.

The meaning is self-evident, I received my favor at the beginning, and now I want to repay the favor. Wu Kang stared at him and said unhurriedly: "Beiya Zuo Yulin Army, my general of the inspection school, is your top boss." If the saint blames, Ben will bear it, and you can rest easy. ”

The tone suddenly turned cold, and he didn't smile: "As the saying goes, don't bully the old and the young, and don't bully the people." If I remember correctly, the general is more than fifty, but I am less than thirty. Many friends, many roads, multiple enemies, many walls, please think twice. ”

The meaning is also obvious, let me go today, not only to return the past kindness, but also to get new favors. You are over fifty years old, and you can live for a few years, and offending young and strong high-ranking officials is not good for your family. Qi Qi He Li smiled bitterly, pondered for a moment and said: "I sell this favor, I wish General Wu good luck." ”

Yulin Jun got out of the way, Wu Kang said twice, and strode away. This is an old fox, very good at trading, let people in without permission, Li Jiu will not blame. If the samurai is defeated, it will have no effect on him; If the samurai wins, he will owe him a favor, so he will make a steady profit and not lose money.

Wu Kang entered the Zichen Hall and went straight to the imperial study, but the palace people did not dare to stop him. Outside the door of the imperial study, Mei Niang was crying, telling her grievances. In the past, they were in harmony with each other, and the concubines worked hard to assist His Majesty in his growth. Now that Your Majesty is in power, but you are looking for a new love, I feel bitter in my heart... It's like a cuckoo crying blood, but unfortunately it is useless, and Li Jiu doesn't respond. In the face of power, family affection is a hair, don't be entangled. Wu Kang took a deep breath and raised his voice and shouted: "Minister Wu Kang asks to see, there is something important to report, please ask Your Majesty to receive you." ”

The voice was relatively loud, and after a short silence, Mei Niang cried even more fiercely. Suddenly, the door slammed and was hit by something, and Li Jiu also stormed away, roaring at the top of his voice: "Who let you in, is it Qi Bi He Li, then get in." ”

Wu Kang pushed the door in, and looked at the inkstone at the door, which seemed to be jadeite. secretly scolded Li Jiu for being a loser, and was about to bow his hand, ushering in a split head and covering his face. The punching bag sent to the door, someone would not be polite, pointed at him and asked: "If you plead for your brother, then needless to say, get out of me immediately." ”

It's such a big fire, my eyes are cracked, who do I want to scare? Wu Kang lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, first finished the ceremony, and then said solemnly: "The queen abuses her children and persecutes the royal bloodline, which is really difficult for the mother to honor the world." If you don't have anything at home, please abolish it with Your Majesty. ”

Like a bombshell, the crying stopped abruptly, Mei Niang couldn't believe it. Li Jiu was also stunned, and soon showed disdain, will you impeach the queen, when I am a fool. slapped the table violently, and said angrily: "Hurt the royal bloodline, then you should tell me, who did she hurt?" ”

Wu Kang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as I was allowed to speak, I had a chance of winning. Turning her head to look at Mei Niang, she said solemnly: "The queen is not harmed by the princes, not the two princesses. It's in her womb, the prince or the princess. ”

It was another bombshell, Mei Niang was dumbfounded, and subconsciously covered her lower abdomen. Li Jiu got up suddenly, looked at her lower abdomen, and jumped like thunder again. Finger Wu Kang, directly burst rough: "Damn Tian Shenu, don't talk nonsense." Since she came to menstruation, she has not been fortunate enough to be there, how can she be pregnant? ”

Wu Kang hurriedly replied: "Sister unintentionally revealed that two days before the lunar event, Your Majesty was lucky. It was also that time that the bead was born. Because it is only two days, it does not affect the menstrual period, so it creates an illusion. The minister remembers very well that this was also the case when his wife was pregnant with his eldest daughter. ”

It's all tears, and it's supposed to be a safe period, so it's very presumptuous. As a result, the trouble came, the daughter-in-law was only fifteen years old, and the birth was really dangerous, and the intestines almost regretted it. In fact, he is also to blame, the so-called safe period is only a small chance, not absolutely safe.

Li Jiu's face turned from anger to consternation, staring at him deadly. Wu Kang struck while the iron was hot and continued to flicker: "The queen is unwell, such as low fever and drowsiness, and her mood is moody. Wake up with brief retching, accompanied by frequent urination, loss of appetite and fussy. All kinds of signs and expressions are already secretly knotted, and the ministers are vouched for by their heads. ”

Raised his head decisively and quickened his speech: "According to the time calculation, it is only twenty days, and there may be no happy pulse." The minister had a way to identify it, find some wheat, and soak it in urine. After three to five days, if the wheat sprouts, you are pregnant. In order to prove that it is true, find more palace people to verify it together. ”

The study was terrible, Mei Niang covered her abdomen with her left hand, and covered her mouth and sobbed with her right hand. Li Jiu lost his anger, and gradually became ashamed, and his eyes turned red. I don't know when, he roared and shouted, "Come on", and pointed to the palace people: "Go to the Imperial Doctor's Office of Fengchang Temple, pass the order of the two imperial doctors, and then go to the Secret Pavilion Bureau, and pass the Secret Pavilion Langzhong." ”

The palace people trotted away, and Li Jiu sat down in a daze, looking at the door in a daze. Wu Kang was cautious, quietly moved a chair, and came to Mei Niang's side. Mei Niang didn't take a seat, with doubts in her eyes, and endless nervousness. Receiving the eyes of his beloved brother, he sat down cautiously and continued to cover his mouth and sob.

Wu Kang returned to his original place, looking at his nose and nose, waiting for the imperial doctor to come over. According to the common knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, a woman will only have a happy pulse after four weeks of pregnancy. It's only twenty days now, and the estimated number can't come out, but don't worry, Maizi is pregnant, it's not nonsense.

In the first millennium B.C., the ancient Egyptians used this method to test. It's funny to say, the afterlife is a dick, and his girlfriend is far away. Listening to the nonsense of her roommate, Dick Si has no money in her hand, and if she wants to find a girlfriend, she can only become a warm man.

How to become a warm man and understand women's physiology is the fastest way. So it's very funny, reading related books, I'm about to become a gynecologist, and I still don't have a girlfriend. At this moment, it came in handy. So to sum up, it's a good thing to read more, and art is not pressing.

Time passed by minute by second, and Li Chunfeng in the secret pavilion came to the study first. Looking at the situation in front of him, he quickly knew it, and he glanced at Wu Kang and shook his head imperceptibly. Li Jiu sat up straight, stopped Chunfeng from saluting, and said lightly: "Qing is the queen's pulse, and there is no need to diagnose the pulse." ”

Mei Niang rolled up her sleeves, her expression was very nervous, and the hem of her skirt shook slightly, probably trembling. Chunfeng comforted her gently, signaled her not to be nervous, and began to feel the pulse.

Wu Kang stared at Chunfeng, his heart was up and down, and he was already sweating. Everything I just said is speculation out of thin air, and there is no real evidence, and it will not turn things around.

Chunfeng suddenly opened his eyes, full of incredulity, and once again concentrated on the feeling, and gradually smiled. He got up with his beard, saluted Li Jiu again, shook his head and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the queen is pregnant, and the royal family has added blood." ”

The real bombshell, Mei Niang cried, her forehead against her arm, lying on the table and sobbing. Li Jiuru was struck by lightning, his face turned pale, and his lips began to tremble. His eyes were getting redder and redder, and he couldn't help but slip out of his eyes when he saw the queen crying.

Li Chunfeng was a little stunned, and suddenly gasped, and glanced at Wu Kang. It turns out that the word "new" represents a new life, and the new son conceived by the queen is the savior of the martial arts. Strangeness flashed in his eyes, and the old god was speaking: "The queen must not be sad, it will be bad for the fetus." ”

When Li Jiu heard this, tears fell faster, and his breathing began to be heavy. Wu Kang also wants to cry, the old god Li Chunfeng, I love you to death. I will not fail the divine assistance you have given, and I will make full use of it to kill all my political enemies...
