"Your Majesty's dictation, Li Xian, the king of Xuanzhou, will enter the palace immediately, and the Liangyi Palace will meet you!"

As Li Xian expected, only about an hour after Yuan Wanqing left, Gaozong sent Sun Quanfu, the deputy chief eunuch of the Liangyi Palace, to deliver the message.

"Minister, thank you!"

Li Xian thanked the holy grace according to the rules, and when he got up, he shook his hand, took out a folded ten-guan flying bill (a certificate issued by the government to facilitate the settlement of merchants) from his wide sleeves, and quietly stuffed it into Sun Quanfu's sleeve, and then said with a smile: "There is Lao Sun's father-in-law, I don't know that my father is so anxious to summon Xiao Wang, but is there anything important?" ”

The Liangyi Hall is the place of handover between the inner ban and the outer court, and it is the place where the emperor receives his confidants and important ministers after going down to the court, and those who can be on an errand in this hall are not idle people, Sun Quanfu is the deputy chief eunuch, and it has long been a habit to collect money, and he will not be moved by Li Xian's hand, he did not directly answer Li Xian's question, but gestured with a "please" gesture and said: "Your Highness, please, don't let Your Majesty and the queen be in a hurry." ”

Sure enough, this is the Empress Wu who is going to administer justice for Yuan Wanqing, interesting! Li Xiannai is a awakened person, only to hear Sun Quanfu's words read "Queen Mother" as an accent, and immediately understood the strangeness, the corners of his mouth bent, and he couldn't help but smile, and he didn't talk any more nonsense, nodded silently, flicked his sleeves and walked to the door of the mansion, just quietly made a secret to Gao Miao while walking.

The carriage was moving forward in the snow, Li Xian in the carriage was gloomy, without the same calm complexion as before, and his hands were clenched into fists, and the color of worry was overflowing - everyone in the world knows that the martial arts queen is not easy to provoke, once provoked, he will have to be stripped of a layer of skin if he does not die, there is no doubt that Li Xian is taking such a risk at this time, and if he is not careful, he is very likely to end up losing all the games, but then again, opportunities always go hand in hand with danger, If you want to fight against such a behemoth as the Empress Wu, you can't do anything if you don't take risks, for the big things in the future, it's better to take risks at this time than to be dangerous in the future, this is the root cause why Li Xian decided to gamble, and now, the bet has been pressed, as for whether it can be done or not, Li Xian doesn't dare to guarantee the ticket, so he can only take one step at a time.

"Your Highness, His Royal Highness King Lu has arrived."

Li Xian's carriage had just arrived in the square in front of Chengtian Gate, and before it could stop, Gao Miao couldn't wait to stick to the side of the curtain, lowered his voice, and reported with a hint of excitement.

Well, this kid has finally lived up to his promise! As soon as he heard that Li Xian had arrived, Li Xian's tense heart finally relaxed a little, his clenched fists waved angrily, lifted the curtain, and poked his head out of the carriage.

"Sixth brother, you're here." Li Xian got out of the carriage, immediately walked a few steps, grabbed Li Xian's side, saluted very respectfully, and greeted him.

"Hmm." Li Xian's complexion was obviously not very good, he waved his hand with a gloomy face, and snorted from his nostrils - this time he received Li Xian's urgent letter, Li Xian didn't plan to come to join in such a lively scene, but he was afraid that Li Xian would not be able to hold his breath for a while, and he would bring out the matter of the previous edict and prison, so he had to rush over.

Yo, I'm really angry, I'm really angry! Seeing Li Xian's face to himself, he smiled secretly in his heart, but he put on an extremely aggrieved look on his face and called in a low voice: "Sixth brother, little brother ......"

"Got it, got it, just hand over the sign."

As soon as Li Xian's pitiful little appearance came out, Li Xian suddenly felt unbearable in his heart, and then remembered Li Xian's previous efforts to help him become famous, and his anger disappeared by half, besides, in front of so many subordinates, Li Xianshi was not too attacked, and in desperation, he shook his head with a wry smile, and replied angrily.

"Yes, the younger brother obeys the orders of the sixth brother."

Li Xian is a master of acting, this change of face is faster than turning a book, it was still cloudy, and in a blink of an eye, the sun was already shining, and he took the sign with a smile on his face, and Gao Miao took it and ran to Chengtianmen to hand over the waist card, and after a few moments, he saw Sun Quanfu, who had already entered the palace, leading the two little eunuchs to turn out from the inside, and the two little brothers each dressed up and walked forward quickly.

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan, King Lu Li Xian, and Zhou King Li Xian will meet in the Liangyi Palace!"

As soon as Sun Quanfu saw Li Xian and the brothers coming, he immediately stood on his feet reservedly, and when the little brothers arrived, he announced Gaozong's dictation in a tone of voice.

"Your Lordship, thank you."

The two little brothers thanked each other according to the book, glanced at each other, walked into the Chengtian Gate side by side, all the way along the palace avenue to the Liangyi Palace, only then turned the Taiji Palace, before they arrived at the Liangyi Palace, across an inner wall, they heard a tight howl from inside, and there was a crackling sound of meat on the board, the sound was so miserable that the two little brothers couldn't help but feel terrified.

Well? What's going on? Isn't it possible to give us a kick? No, why is the sixth child's face so ugly? As soon as Li Xian and the others turned the door of the inner wall, they saw a small eunuch lying on the ground to be tortured, and there were two eunuchs on the side who desperately held down their struggling bodies, and there were two strong eunuchs who could hit the board vigorously, and when they saw this, Li Xian couldn't help but be stunned - it is common for eunuchs to punish criminals in the palace, but most of them are executed in the inner prison, and there are very few executions in the outer court.

"Your Royal Highness, please, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are already in the palace."

Sun Quanfu, who accompanied the little brothers into the palace together, saw that the brothers couldn't move, so he had to fake a cough and make a point.

"Wait, what did the eunuch do? Why was the execution carried out here? Li Xian was about to lift his feet and leave, but Li Xian obviously didn't have this plan, stretched out his hand, stopped in front of Sun Quanfu, gritted his teeth, and asked in a cold voice.

"If you go back to Your Highness, this little guy lost his honor in the palace today, which angered the queen's mother, so he should be punished with a rod, Your Highness, you should go to the palace first." In front of Li Xian, the increasingly famous prince, Sun Quanfu did not dare to be rude, and was busy explaining with a smiling face.

"Lost in honor? Hmph, what a misdemeanor! ”

Sun Quanfu didn't explain, but under this explanation, Li Xian's face instantly turned blue, and he clenched his fists fiercely, showing signs of madness.

It's not good, this little eunuch is the inside line of the sixth child nine times out of ten, hey, this is killing chickens and monkeys, what a ruthless wrist! Li Xiannai is a clever person, how could he not understand what was going on in front of him when he heard this, his heart was shocked, he couldn't care about much, he hurriedly pulled down Li Xian's sleeve, lowered his voice and said: "Sixth brother, there is something to discuss after meeting my father." ”

Li Xian guessed correctly, the tortured eunuch who was pushed to the ground was Zhang Dekai, the chamberlain who had reported to Li Xian, the reason why he was killed by the Empress Wu this time was to give Li Xian and his brothers a lesson, which Li Xian obviously also thought of, but after all, he was not as calm as Li Xian, and under the anger in his heart, he was on the verge of attacking, if it weren't for Li Xian's quick pull, I was afraid that Li Xian couldn't help but rush forward and shout to stop.

"Let's go, let's go into the temple!"

Although Li Xian's personality is a little impulsive, he is not a brainless person, he was dragged by Li Xian like this, he has woken up, and after his face changed for a while, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, brushed his sleeves and walked towards the hall.

It seems that this level is not easy to pass, that guy can give Lao Liuyi a brick, and there must be another brick prepared for us, so I don't know how much this "meeting gift" can weigh! Although Li Xian's steps were steady, he was thinking about it quickly, and his original full confidence couldn't help but discount, but the matter had come to this, but he couldn't turn back, and now the only way to do it was to see the move, and when he thought of this, his heart couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Well? Why are so many people here? Li Xian followed Li Xian into the hall, and saw Gaozong and Empress Wu sitting side by side on the top, the prince Li Hong sat on the soft chariot under the front mound with a smile, and there were a lot of people standing below, and there were many people standing below, and Yuan Wanqing, who was not qualified to enter the Liangyi Palace, also stood aside with a black face, and a group of people seemed to be chatting happily, and laughter floated out of the hall from time to time, Li Xian didn't dare to look more, and followed Li Xian and walked forward, each saluting.

"The sons and the others have seen their fathers and emperors, and they have seen their mothers."

Although the little brothers have different thoughts, they are very thoughtful in terms of etiquette, and there is no rudeness at all.

"Xian'er, Xian'er is here, get up."

As soon as he saw that the little brothers had arrived, a trace of discoloration flashed across Gaozong's face, as if he couldn't bear it, but even though he laughed, he raised his hand very kindly.

"Son, wait for Father Emperor Longen."

As soon as they heard their old father call, the two brothers didn't think much about it, thanked them in unison, stood up, and were about to retreat to the side, but unexpectedly, at this moment, Empress Wu suddenly opened her mouth and said: "Slow down, Xian'er stay!" ”

As soon as Empress Wu opened his mouth like this, Li Xian's brothers couldn't help but stand still, and after glancing at each other, Li Xian gritted his teeth and retreated to the side, leaving Li Xian alone in the main hall.

"Mother, the child hears the hadith."

Li Xian had long expected that he would not be able to pass the pass easily, but he was not flustered, shook his sleeve robe slightly, bowed his body, and opened his mouth very calmly, but after waiting for a long time, he never saw the Empress Wu call up, nor did he see the Empress Wu give any instructions, poor Li Xian could only bend over and stand stupidly aggrieved, and the hall was eerily quiet......
