Chapter 600 Emperor Li vs Empress Wu, who loses and who wins?

When the sun is setting and dusk is approaching, the entire Penglai Hall has been lit, and the flickering firelight everywhere has brought a little warmth to this winter palace. However, whether it was the inner prison maid in it, or the brothers Li Hong and Li Xian, who walked side by side, they all felt uncomfortable with the cold on their bodies, and they couldn't wait to slow down their steps.

Li Xian even thought maliciously, could it be that his father and mother were fighting inside?

Just when there was still some distance from the inner hall, the inner eunuch who led the way suddenly stopped, turned around respectfully and said: "Prince, King Yong, the two Majesties are inside, forgive the villain for the inconvenience of going inside!" ”

This sentence is extremely weird, and Li Xian is inexplicable, and even Li Hong is a little confused. At this time, when Li Xian turned his head to look for Wang Fushun again, he saw that the first chief manager of the imperial front who was dangling in front of him all the time did not even have a shadow, obviously he didn't know where to hide from the limelight. With such an understanding, he could only wave the trembling inner prisoner, grabbed Li Hong's sleeve, and tiptoed towards the door inside.

He listened attentively for a long time, but there was no imaginary noise in it, and it was even a little quiet. Thinking that it was not a way to stand here and watch, he motioned for Li Hong to retreat, coughed lightly at the door, and then knocked on the door, followed by a call to his father. There was no response for a long time, and he had more and more headaches, so he had to add another sentence of the queen mother.

However, it was as if all the people inside were dead, not to mention the sound of speech. There was no sound of coughing, clothing, footsteps, anything. In desperation, he had to slowly push open the door with the courage to open it, and what caught his eye was the emperor Lao Tzu who was carved in clay and wood, and the Empress Wu who was crying on the brocade bench.

Seeing this scene, Li Xian only felt a burst of cool air slowly rising from the tail vertebrae. Emperor Li's expression is not said for the time being, but how rare is my mother's pear blossom with rain expression? He has seen Empress Wu's Bo anger and slight anger, seen Empress Wu's charm and gentleness, and seen her rage, but this kind of scene of tears has not been seen. I've never even heard of it. Moreover, this kind of silent tears without even sobbing sound actually makes people's hearts numb and the soles of their feet cold.

Without looking back, Li Xian knew that Li Hong behind him must have been stunned. Thereupon. He quickly pulled his brother, who was too stiff to move, in, and then immediately closed the door. But when he turned around, he didn't know what to say—he didn't know what to do. No matter how clever he is, he can't fight this kind of uncertain battle, right?

He didn't speak, and someone couldn't hold his breath, so a voice immediately came from the side: "Father." Mother, you are ......"

Emperor Li, who looked like a clay sculpture and wood sculpture, finally moved, and vaguely realized that it was his two sons standing in front of him. Suddenly showed an extremely embarrassed expression. Where is the previous earthquake rage on the Taiye pool? No matter how much dissatisfaction there is. It's already been a fuss just now, and his anger has almost disappeared. However. This touched his nose full of ash in front of his wife's tenderness, and at this time, Li Hong and Li Xian happened to bump into him, and he turned on his face when he thought about it.

"It's not a good thing for you two to do it!"

These words came abruptly, but Li Hong was a first-class filial person, and immediately knelt down when he heard the words. In this way, Li Xian behind him couldn't stand alone, so he could only kneel down angrily, and complained about Li Hong half to death in his heart - he had to find a good opportunity to speak at this time, wouldn't he be asking for trouble if he rushed in? This daddy's anger is obviously not over yet, but it's good, it's all sprinkled on the two brothers.

"There is a clear text in this court that soapnails are not allowed to be hidden, you two brothers are not the same thing, do you know what the outsiders say?" When Lao Tzu's temper attacked, it was endless, not to mention that Emperor Li has always been the most proud of his father's kindness and filial piety, at this time, while pounding the desk next to him, he scolded, "The prince is guilty of breaking the law and the common people, you are so reckless, how can I face the hundred officials?" ”

Li Xian originally thought it was some kind of crooked and rotten jujube, but when he heard Emperor Lao Tzu talk about this, he was immediately unhappy - there must be a limit to this platform, if this crime is their brother, forget it, isn't there anyone else? Besides, such a rule has been implemented for decades, but it has not been implemented in depth, as for being so angry?

Although there were a lot of slanders, he also understood that he was afraid of rebellion when he was the emperor, and when he saw Li Hong's shoulders trembling in front of him, he didn't speak, so he had to take on the heavy responsibility of presenting his feelings. The first is to admit mistakes, which is only one word different from confession, but the difference is huge. Immediately afterwards, he began to explain the work, and because he had a good memory, he remembered what he had found out clearly, and this statement was naturally well-organized and well-founded.

After two quarters of an hour, he felt only that his knees were there

Seeing that Li Hong was obviously in poor spirits, he hurriedly pleaded: "Father, there are many pro-soldiers in the Command Mansion, and it is not surprising that there is soap armor that has not been returned to the Arsenal Department after this training." The fifth brother is not in good health, isn't it ......"

He deliberately didn't finish what he said, however, after hearing the string song, after such an explanation work, the pimple in Emperor Li's heart suddenly disappeared a little, thinking that he would not be as unlucky as his father Li Shimin and raised a bunch of rebels. In addition, seeing that Li Hong's face was pale and he never said a word, his heart softened, so he lightly ordered his two sons to get up.

And Empress Wu, who had been silent next to her, thought in her heart: soft-heartedness is her husband's biggest weakness, and it is also his greatest strength. If Taizong and Li Shimin were replaced at this time, the two brothers Li Hong and Li Xian would definitely not have passed the test so quickly.

Of course, Emperor Li would not really let go of this matter so easily, but paid more attention to the joints: "Xian'er, you just said that there are more than a dozen princes and nobles who have found contraband and soapnails in various houses in the capital, can you take this seriously?" ”

Receiving Li Xian's swearing-like answer, Li Zhi was suddenly puzzled. If this is the case, how can the inner prisoner who committed suicide by throwing himself into the water with a loyal face so vaguely said? The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, he simply asked about Guo Xingzhen's disappearance again, and when he learned that his wife had asked Di Renjie to preside over the case, his frowning brows suddenly relaxed halfway.

So, when Empress Wu just came in, he couldn't help but say that he was angry, was he wrong to blame her? Emperor Li glanced at Empress Wu on the brocade bench next to him uneasily, and found that she had not moved her body, just maintained the appearance just now, and from his direction, the tears on that side of her face were like tears, and even her eyes seemed to be a little swollen.

One crying, two troubles and three hangings, this is not the patent of women, in fact, in most families where the husband's power overrides the wife's power, women also often use this trick, and it is not uncommon even in the palace. Li Zhi's original wife, Queen Wang, and his former favorite concubine, Concubine Xiao Shu, had played this trick with him when he was angry, which made him so bored that he died. It seems that only his Mei Niang is always special, even if it is the pear blossom with rain this time, it is also special.

"Mei Niang!" Li Zhi stood up suddenly, with a bit of embarrassment in his tone, "I was in a hurry just now, and I spoke too much. It's not easy for you to be busy these days, and I know how hard you ......."

Li Xian pricked up his ears and listened to his father's very unsmooth words, and secretly laughed in his heart, but when he heard that Emperor Lao Tzu was upside down and said a few words, he could only shake his head in his heart. When he wanted to go up to replace him in person, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Li Hong standing there in despair, knowing that it was the first time that his brother had been reprimanded like this, so he could only take advantage of the two supremes not paying attention and quietly patted him on the back twice. As for whether it has an effect, he can't care about it at the moment.

"The concubine is just for His Majesty's entrustment, and she should not work hard." Empress Wu's words were quite contemplative, and she couldn't even notice the sharp words she used to face the ministers, "Now that Chang'an City is troublesome, it is indeed the fault of the concubines who neglected to overlook, and there is nothing wrong with Your Majesty's rebuke just now." The concubine only hated herself for not being able to handle everything properly, so that Jiurou still has to worry about his body now......"

His Majesty, who was still respectful and distant in front, suddenly became Jiulang in the back, and Li Zhi's expression suddenly became extremely subtle. If Empress Wu also made a big fuss to defend himself, he might not be so uncomfortable, but now, an indescribable sense of guilt permeated his whole body in an instant - even when he had fornicated with Mrs. Han under the nose of Empress Wu, he had never felt so guilty as now.

"Mei Niang, you've done a good job, I ...... I ...... hold back for a long time, and Li Zhi finally held back a crucial sentence, "I shouldn't have listened to the old eunuch's slander, otherwise how could I blame you?" Well, I have always been proud of my wife and filial piety, and I shouldn't have believed what others instigated! ”

As if he was afraid that his disguised subduing would not be effective, Li Zhi suddenly turned his head and glared at his two sons, and commanded in a deep voice: "What are you still standing there for, why don't you come to intercede with your queen mother for me?" ”

Is that okay? Li Xian really didn't expect Emperor Lao Tzu to make such a move in the end, so he stood there stupidly and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but he still reacted before Li Hong. Pulling Li Hong, who was not yet conscious, to his mother, he bent down one leg and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, the son is here to apologize to the Queen Mother for his father!" ”

"You're serious!" Empress Wu quickly pulled her son up, and then Yingying stood up, her eyes still shining with tears looked extremely moving, "Your Majesty said that he was instigated by others, but he is willing to promise his concubine one thing?" ”(
