"You should already know what happened today, huh?"

In the side room, Empress Wu lowered her head and sat silently for a while before she raised her head, narrowed her eyes, and said quietly.

"Please also mourn on Mother's Day."

Gar Yingong was a smart man, and naturally knew that it was difficult to hide the thoughts of the Empress Wu if he was lying or pretending to be stupid, and he did not want to be very clever in this matter, so he bowed down and replied with a sad face.

"That's it, let's talk about it, it's come to this, what should this palace do?"

As soon as she heard the word "festival mourning", a trace of gloom immediately flashed in the eyes of the martial queen, but she soon calmed down, waved her hand expressionlessly, and asked in a calm voice.

"If you go back to Niangniang, you will think that the matter is in danger, and you should use extraordinary means, and if you don't do it, the consequences may be difficult to reverse!"

Gaozong is dead, and the Empress Wu has lost his greatest support, which also means that the opportunity for Gal Yinggong to take revenge is only the last blow, if it doesn't work out, even if the world is big, there is absolutely no place for him, in view of this, Gar Yingong does not dare to hide anything anymore, and he hits the key point with a mouth.

"Well, let's be specific."

At this point, the interests of Gar Yinggong are undoubtedly the same, and there will be no different opinions on his words.

"Niangniang Mingjian, as far as the last general knows, the prince's house has always been in the province every morning and dusk, even if he can't enter the palace gate, he will definitely bow to His Majesty outside this Lishui Xuan, this is an opportunity, just take advantage of it, don't worry about big things!"

In order to deal with Li Xian, Gar Yinggong had been planning for a long time, and at this time, he responded very neatly, and his confidence was overflowing.

"What if he doesn't come suddenly?"

Empress Wu was a shrewd person, and although Gar Yinggong had not yet explained the specific arrangements in detail, she had already guessed a rough idea, and she had made up her mind in her heart, but she did not say it explicitly, but asked unhurriedly.

"Niangniang can send someone to announce it, just say that His Majesty has something important to summon him to see, I don't think he will dare not come, otherwise, there is no need to ambush, a crime of disobeying the order is enough to kill him!"

Empress Wu's worries were not unreasonable, but Gar Yinggong didn't care, and explained a sentence with great confidence.

"Well, in your opinion, who can take on this task?"

Empress Wu was obviously not too satisfied with Gar Yinggong's somewhat assumed answer, but she couldn't come up with a better way, so she could only say noncommittally, put the matter aside for now, and instead asked who could preside over the overall situation.

"The last general thinks that this matter must be done by Cheng Wuting and General Cheng, and the last general is willing to help from the side, so as to be safe!"

At first glance, Empress Wu's words seem to be plain, but in fact, there is a lot of mystery inside, and it is difficult for ordinary people to hear the meaning, but Gar Yingong understands it as soon as he hears it, nothing else, it is nothing more than that the Empress Wu did not plan to hand over the overall situation to him Gar Yinbow, otherwise, there is no need to ask more, but Gar Yingong doesn't care, just because what he wants is not the glory of the Tang Dynasty, what he wants is only revenge, as for things like reputation, he didn't take it to heart at all, and answered the question of the Empress Wu, Since then, he has been very open.

"Oh? Does Aiqing think General Li Duozuo is unreliable, huh? ”

For the two newly promoted generals of the Yulin Army, the Empress Wu has a lot of contact, and the kindness is generally the same, but deep down in his heart he is inclined to Li Duozuo more, not for anything else, just because Li Duozuo is not a Han Chinese, and his mind is relatively simple, at least in the eyes of the Empress Wu, it is a more controllable one, but Cheng Wuting is quite scheming, not a mortal, doing such a major assassination, the Empress Wu is more optimistic about Li Duozuo, and at this time, seeing that the person recommended by Gar Yingong is Cheng Wuting, he can't help but have some doubts.

"Niang Niang Mingjian, General Li is a native of the Prince, and now the governor of Liaodong is a loyal and domineering under the prince's door, even if General Li is loyal, but it is inevitable that Li Xia will be in charge of the melon field, so the last general thinks that it is appropriate for General Cheng to be in charge of this matter."

Although he heard the dissatisfaction in Empress Wu's words, Gar Yinggong didn't care, and expressed his worries unmistakably in a straightforward manner.

"Well, then it's decided, go, invite General Cheng to the palace."

In the eyes of Empress Wu, Gar Yinbow's explanation was inevitably a bit far-fetched, but at this critical juncture, Empress Wu did not dare to risk mistakes, and after a little silence, she had already agreed to Gar Yinbow's suggestion.

"No, the last will obey!"

Gar Yingong had been planning for many years, and it was this day that he had agreed to his proposal after hearing the martial arts, and his heart was very excited, so he simply replied neatly, turned around, and walked out of the room quickly.

"Hmmm......"

Empress Wu didn't pay attention to Gar Yinggong's departure, lowered her head, sat silently for a long time, and at the end, let out a heavy sigh, I don't know how many worries, how many worries, but the matter has come to this, even if there is more anxiety, Wu Hou has no choice, can only bet all together on the table, as for the victory, it can only be done to do its best, obey the destiny of God......

The end of the time has passed, the sun has gradually slanted westward, but the sun is still brilliant, not only that, because of the rare day of sunny day to dispel the cold of the past few days, it actually gives people a sense of sunshine like spring in March, by this temptation, the people who poured into the streets are a few more than noon, the streets and alleys are overcrowded, the sound of selling one after another, extraordinarily lively, but this kind of excitement has nothing to do with the Yue Wangfu, Li Zhen, who is sick at home, has long been closed to thank guests, since he can't show up casually, naturally he can't go anywhere, can only hold a rocking chair, the cat is in the back garden of his house, basking in the sun, while boredly holding an idle book and looking at it, he doesn't see it turn a page for a long time, there is no doubt that Li Zhen's mind is not in the book.

Li Zhen is very annoying, not ordinary annoyance, not for anything else, just because it has been more than half a month has passed, but the chaos in the court he expected has not appeared, and he has not even seen a sign of chaos coming, and now, his Xiangzhou army has been dispatched, as the so-called bow is no turning arrow, at this time if you want to collect the army, it is no longer possible, if the court situation has not changed, waiting for him is afraid that it is not a very good result, how can Li Zhen not be upset, but now the situation is no longer in his control, Li Zhen had nothing to think of besides sitting and waiting.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!"

Li Zhen was so engrossed in thinking that she didn't notice Pei Shoude's arrival, until Pei Shoude called twice in a low voice, and then he raised his head like a big dream.

"Oh, it's Shoude, what's the matter, there's news?"

Seeing that it was Pei Shoude who came this time, Li Zhen's spirit immediately perked up, turned over and sat up straight, and asked with a look of anticipation.

"Back to the prince's words, there is movement in the palace today, according to the news from the inside, His Majesty has woken up at noon, after the mother heard the news and rushed to Lishui Xuan, she has not yet seen it, but has summoned Cheng Wuting, the general of the Yulin Army, and I don't know what to talk about, in addition, the son-in-law arranged in Chang'an, Lantian The dark piles have lost contact, this has passed the time of three days and a report, but there is no relevant news back, depending on the situation, I am afraid that there is something strange, the prince has to guard against it!"

Pei Shoude had come to report the news, but seeing that Li Zhen was in a hurry, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly bowed down and reported the news he got one by one.

"Huh? This ......"

Li Zhen wants to plot a big thing, not only to guard against the military queen, but also dare not ignore Li Xian's military strength, for this reason, Li Zhen has secretly made a lot of deployments, from Longguan to Kunshan Pass have arranged a lot of manpower, agreed to report every three days with carrier pigeons, the worry is that Li Xian transferred the Hexi army into the customs, everything was normal a few days ago, Li Zhen was also proud to be able to rush before the arrival of the Hexi army, the Xiangzhou army was transferred to Luoyang, but as soon as the current situation came out, Li Zhen immediately couldn't get up, It's just that for a while, it was difficult to conclude that it was Li Xian's hand, but the doubts in his heart were already great.

"Lord, my son-in-law thinks that there may be drastic changes in the palace, the situation will be chaotic, Luoyang is already a dangerous city, the prince must not stay for a long time, and he must leave early."

Seeing that Li Zhen's face was wrong, Pei Shoude hurriedly persuaded him.

"Well, Shoude, you immediately sent an urgent letter to Chong'er, ordering him to lead the army to Luoyang at full speed without delay! In addition, step up contact with the people in the area of Kunshan Pass to see if there is anything unusual, and go. ”

Although Li Zhen is a little bold, but he is not very death-oriented, the reason why he stayed in Luoyang and did not leave, the original intention was just to use himself as bait, to confuse the Empress Wu and the prince, in order to cover the transfer of troops by Li Chong and others, although the news is not yet completely clear, but Li Zhen has a premonition that his bewilderment action has been bankrupt, and he does not want to stay in Luoyang City anymore, even if Pei Shoude does not say, he also plans to leave quickly, and the Xiangzhou army that left and right him is already halfway down, and he has already gone to join the armies, but it is also a good thing, He would not refuse Pei Shoude's proposal, but before leaving, he still had to stop arranging things.

"Don't worry, the son-in-law will do it, and please don't delay it, so as not to change things."

Hearing Li Zhen's words, Pei Shoude felt a lot more relieved, and hurriedly agreed to the promise.

"It's okay, those two heads don't necessarily have to take care of the king now, so let's go and get busy, and have their own opinions."

Although Li Zhen had already made up his mind, he didn't plan to talk to Pei Shoude in detail, so he said vaguely perfunctory.

"No, the son-in-law is retiring."

Pei Shoude's mouth opened, and he seemed to want to persuade a few more words, but seeing that Li Zhen was already frowning unhappily, he didn't dare to say more, and responded respectfully, and then withdrew from the back garden, and went to Zhang Luo and didn't mention all kinds of matters.

"Squeak ......"

After Pei Shoude went, Li Zhen did not go back to the room, but turned his head to look around, and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he walked quickly to a rockery, stretched out his hand and groped on it a few times, a piercing friction sound suddenly rose, and the original craggy rockery suddenly opened, revealing a swarthy portal, Li Zhen did not hesitate to rush to it, and it disappeared into the darkness in an instant. There is no longer a portal to be seen......
