If the names mentioned by Helan Minyue before were still in Li Hong's expectations, then the candidates mentioned this time made Li Hong feel even more tricky.

Without him, not only because these people are all important figures, but more importantly, they are all Li Zhi's henchmen, although now because of the birth of Princess Taiping, the matter of meeting Ashina Fu Nian has been temporarily postponed, but Li Hong doesn't think that his shrewd father will really forget about this matter!

This can be seen from the attitude of Liu Xiangdao and others that His Majesty the Emperor's attitude towards Ashina Fu Nian is quite kind.

And what makes Li Hong even more vigilant is that Liu Renliang and Pei Yan have a more direct attitude, you must know that they are not Li Yifu's people, let alone Li Xian's people, in the final analysis, they are all forces in the hands of Empress Wu.

Now standing on Li Xian's side so nakedly, does it mean that Empress Wu really plans to support Li Xian?

Li Hong's brows were furrowed, and his expression also changed for a while, and Helan Minyue obviously sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, so she also didn't speak.

"Miss......"

However, although there was silence in the room, there was a hurried footstep from far to near.

Linglong, dressed in a blue dress, walked quickly to Helan Minyue's side and whispered.

"News just came back!"

After that, she took out a tightly tied paper roll from her sleeve, Helan Minyue raised her jade hand, took the paper roll, and opened it to take a look, but her face suddenly became extremely complicated.

Li Hong looked at Helan Minyue's suddenly changed face, but he couldn't help but arouse a burst of curiosity in his heart, and asked.

"What's wrong?"

Unexpectedly, after Helan Minyue calmed down. But a wry smile appeared on his face and said.

"Good news. A piece of bad news, which one does Your Highness want to hear first? ”

Li Hong frowned. At this time, Helan Minyue said bad news, which must have something to do with Ashina Fu Nian......

But before he could speak, Helan Minyue sighed and said lightly.

"Your Highness doesn't have to guess, the good news is that the concubine has finally found out why the queen mother supports His Royal Highness King Yong so much, the bad news is that this news will probably make the situation even more complicated!"

"Oh? Let's talk about it! ”

As soon as he heard Helan Minyue say this, Li Hong's eyes suddenly became serious.

All along, he had been feeling very strange. Why did Empress Wu suddenly decide to support Li Xian, if it is said that he has always dealt too much blow to Empress Wu's forces, it is not impossible.

But Li Xian's wolf ambition, it is impossible for the Empress Wu not to notice it at all, in all fairness, I am afraid that in the heart of the Empress Wu, the perception of Li Xian is not very good.

What's more, although Empress Wu played smoothly in the court struggle, she was not ambiguous at all in court politics, such as the Turkic surrender. The Empress Wu would never use it as a bargaining chip.

Even though Empress Wu didn't know much about military affairs, but last time Li Hong specially asked Xu Jingzong to explain the stakes to Empress Wu, he believed that Empress Wu would not be so unreasonable, but the attitude of Liu Renliang and others could not be faked. So it really makes Li Hong a little strange.

Seeing that Li Hong was so serious, Helan Minyue no longer hung her appetite and said straightforwardly.

"Actually, Your Highness should have thought of it. Mrs. Rongguo! ”

Li Hong was stunned for a moment, and then he knew it in his heart.

If there is one person in this world who can influence the decision of the Empress Wu. Then this person may be none other than the mother of the Empress Wu, Mrs. Rongguo, Yang!

At the beginning, Helan Minzhi was able to get away with it many times because Mrs. Rongguo had been protecting him. And since He Lanmin's death, Mrs. Rongguo has been depressed, but she didn't expect that she would be willing to stand up for Li Xian this time.

I have to say that Li Hong was a little surprised.

Although the Yang family is Li Hong's grandmother, the relationship between Li Hong and the Empress Wu is so weak, not to mention the Yang family, Li Hong has almost no contact with her.

In addition, this Mrs. Rongguo has never interfered in the government, so her sense of existence is not strong, and for a while, Li Hong didn't even think of her.

"The concubine found out that before the court meeting that proposed His Royal Highness King Yong to enter the court, Mrs. Rongguo had specially entered the palace once and had a secret conversation with the queen for half an hour, during which the content was unknown, but after she came out, the queen mother immediately approved the book of the Later Han Dynasty.

And before that, His Royal Highness King Yong and Mrs. Rongguo got very close, and in the name of filial piety, they sent a large number of gifts, and among them, ...... Even a few handsome young servants and maids! ”

Speaking of this, a trace of disgust flashed in Helan Minyue's tone, and her expression became complicated.

Suddenly Li Hong couldn't cry or laugh, he had forgotten this after all his calculations......

It's a bit disrespectful to say, but it's true, Mrs. Rongguo has many grandsons and grandsons, but she only loves Helan Minzhi very much, because there have been rumors in the market that the relationship between Mrs. Rongguo and Helan Minzhi is not simple.

In the past, Li Hong thought it was just a rumor, but now looking at Helan Minyue's expression, I'm afraid that there is a chance that the matter is true.

At the same time, he also understood the reason why Helan Minyue looked like this, when Li Hong wanted to kill Helan Minzhi, Mrs. Rongguo could be said to have tried her best to save him.

But in a blink of an eye, he was bribed because of Li Xian's mere "gift", and he was willing to lobby Empress Wu for the person who killed Helan Minzhi, which was really helpless!

Taking a deep breath, Helan Minyue tried to calm her face and continued to speak.

"Your Highness doesn't have to worry, there is still news here for the concubine, but I don't know if it is good news or bad news for Your Highness!"

Li Hong frowned and did not speak.

And Helan Minyue continued to take care of herself.

"Just now, the queen mother issued an order to reprimand Liu Renliang, Pei Yan and other people, although it was just a few words of innocuous reprimand, but it can be seen that the queen mother did not know about their meeting with the messenger of Ashina Fu Nian!"

Helan Minyue's words were not particularly clear, but this was enough!

Empress Wu's order to reprimand Liu Renliang and others shows her attitude, and she is opposed to Ashina Fu Nian, which can be regarded as good news!

At least Empress Wu is not so confused as to use the government as a gamble!

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Empress Wu's attitude has already begun to emerge, but Li Hong was confused by her support for Li Xian's entry into the court, and preconceived that Empress Wu planned to support Li Xian.

You must know that in addition to Li Yifu, the most heavyweight person in the Wuhou family is none other than Xu Jingzong, who has been helping Li Hong!

And Xu Jingzong's attitude on this matter is quite clear, agreeing with Li Hong's approach, and even after the last discussion in the East Palace, Xu Jingzong has begun to suppress the courtiers' twists and turns on the matter of Ashina Fu Nian's peace talks.

There is also Zhou Yunyuan, the newly promoted Imperial History of the Empress Wu, the old man has been very quiet recently, but it can be basically concluded that he is the Empress Wu's centaurs.

Since he didn't move, it can only show that Empress Wu has no intention of supporting Ashina's peace talks!

As long as Empress Wu didn't make a move, then the pressure on Li Hong would be much less.

But it also represents two pieces of bad news...... (To be continued.) )
