Li Hong sensitively noticed that Empress Wu had not said why he came over suddenly since he entered the hall, and he didn't believe that Empress Wu had ended his copying of scriptures in the Buddhist hall for no reason, and rushed over in such broad daylight.

It seems to confirm Li Hong's premonition.

Empress Wu looked at Li Zhi and Yao Chong asking and answering, and suddenly sighed faintly.

"Now that your majesty is still going to hide it from your concubines? Has the Hong'er assassination case been decided? Is it really Minzhi's doing? ”

Empress Wu's voice was soft, and her tone was slightly cold, so that people couldn't see joy and anger.

But it shocked Li Hong's heart, he knew that it was not for no reason that Empress Wu came over today, but who dared to report to Empress Wu?

Sneaking a glance at Li Yifu and Liu Renliang, he found that these two people were also shocked, but unlike Li Hong, there was a hint of joy on their faces.

"Mei Niang, I ......"

Li Zhi sighed, but he didn't know how to explain it to Empress Wu.

"That's right, today the three divisions will try the assassination case of Hong'er, and Minzhi pleaded guilty on the spot, admitting that he instructed the assassin to murder the prince, and then blamed Xian'er, I ...... I didn't tell you because ......"

Li Zhi's words stumbled, and he paid attention to Empress Wu's face every time he said a word, afraid that Empress Wu would not be able to withstand the blow.

However, the strange thing is that Empress Wu's face has always been pale and does not make waves.

"The concubine knew that His Majesty felt sorry for the concubine's body and unborn child, so he didn't tell the concubine, but His Majesty also underestimated the concubine too much, so many years of ups and downs The concubine has survived, how could such a trivial matter knock the concubine down."

Empress Wu showed a rare trace of warmth on her face, and looked at Li Zhi's eyes with a hint of smile, and said softly.

"Then, how does the queen think this matter should be handled......

Li Zhi looked at Empress Wu's expression and made sure that Empress Wu was doing everything as usual, and he was not emotionally excited because of this.

Only then did he put his mind at ease and asked the Empress Wu.

Originally, according to his meaning, Helan Minzhi had to be killed, but now that the martial arts queen is over, he naturally has to take into account the martial queen's opinion.

However, this made His Royal Highness Li Hong a little discouraged, his father was really too weak, and he was obviously about to kill Helan Minzhi, a bastard, but now when he heard this, he began to shake again.

"Hong'er, if this palace is not mistaken, the three divisions will be tried today, and you are also supervising the trial, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Empress Wu did not answer Li Zhi, but turned to Li Hong and asked.

Although there was a smile on his face, there was no trace of warmth in his words, and there was even a cold light in his eyes.

He is not only a supervisor, but also a chief judge......

Li Hong obviously felt that there were two resentful eyes behind him, which were Xu Jingzong and Zhou Yunyuan.

Indeed, if Li Hong hadn't made trouble today, they would have exonerated Helan Minzhi according to Li Zhi's instructions, so why would they have to face the pressure of Empress Wu now.

But at the moment, Li Hong doesn't have the heart to care about the two of them, dealing with the martial queen is the most important thing, looking at Li Zhi's meaning, if he can't convince the martial queen today, I'm afraid that the kid from Helan Minzhi may really escape.

"After returning to my mother, this case has been tried since before my father and queen mother returned to Beijing, the last time the three divisions were tried, Helan Minzhi personally admitted to the case of abducting and trafficking women, today's court trial, he is even more wild, he confessed to his command to assassinate the imperial city, the court trial process has been recorded, and the conclusion is also jointly recognized by the three adults, the file is here, please see the father and queen mother!"

Li Hong got up and said calmly to Empress Wu.

"Bengong asked, what does the prince think Zhou Guogong should do?"

Empress Wu put away the smile on her face, and her tone was flat.

But it is not difficult to hear the displeasure in the tone.

"This ...... Zhou Guogong is the prince of my Tang Dynasty, how to deal with his own father, queen and mother, the sons dare not say anything! ”

Li Hong hesitated for a moment, but still didn't answer positively, and kicked the ball back again.

"Oh? According to this palace, Minzhi, a child with a pure nature, will never do such a rebellious thing, so let's retry it! ”

Empress Wu was not polite and said lightly.

made Li Hong break out in a cold sweat.

"Niangniang, the result of this case is the conclusion of the trial of the three divisions, how can it be handled so easily? If Niangniang has any doubts about this case, she can review it according to the case file, but Zhou Guogong is indeed a heinous crime, and the crime cannot be forgiven. ”

Before Li Hong could speak, Zhang Wenqian couldn't stand it anymore, got up and said in a deep voice.

The words were not polite at all, but they just said that in order to protect her relatives, Empress Wu blatantly disregarded the law of the country.

However, the strange thing is that Empress Wu did not get angry because of this, but looked at Li Hong with a smile.

Li Hong knows that this is the Empress Wu is forcing him to make a statement, today's matter still depends on Li Hong's attitude in the final analysis, if Li Hong insists on disposing of Helan Minzhi according to the results of the triage of the three divisions, then it is conceivable that in order to maintain the majesty of the three divisions, Xu Jingzong, Zhou Yunyuan and Zhang Wenqian will all stand on Li Hong's side.

Even if Xu Jingzong is the confidant of the Empress Wu, he will not be an exception! Because Xu Jingzong represents the dignity of the entire Menxia Province at the moment, even if it is in face, he can't bow to the king.

This is a game between the power of the minister and the power of the monarch, Xu Jingzong, as a courtier, does not allow him to have other choices!

If it is the other way around, Li Hong no longer insists on this matter, then there are many workarounds, strictly speaking, the two triages of the three divisions, the means used by Li Hong are not very formal, especially the second triage of the three divisions, which can almost be regarded as inducing confessions.

If Li Hong no longer insists, Empress Wu can logically order a retrial on this ground, or put this file aside and deal with it again after a year and a half......

Everything depends on Li Hong's attitude now.

"Erchen ......"

And at this moment, Li Hong's heart is also very entangled, he is naturally clear about the current situation, which is also the purpose of his conviction for He Lanmin in the hall of the triage of the three divisions at all costs.

Only with the help of the power of the three divisions can Helan Minzhi be completely defeated!

Now it can be said that the goal has been achieved, and continuing to persist is equivalent to tying the entire three divisions to the chariot, and the opponent is the emperor and queen in front of them!

Yes, it's the emperor and the queen! And not the Empress Wu alone!

If he continues to insist, it will set off a confrontation between the power of the minister and the monarchy, and no matter what Li Zhi thinks in his heart, he will be on the same front as the Empress Wu, and no one will be allowed to dare to provoke the monarchy.

And history proves that all the people who Empress Wu and Li Zhi wanted to deal with with without a unified opinion have now gone to see the first emperor......

First, there is the incomparably powerful queen of the mother family, and then there is the eldest grandson Wuji, who once leaned towards the government and the opposition, all of which are lessons from the past.

Therefore, Li Hong was quite hesitant, with his current strength, he couldn't fight against the emperor and queen at all, even if he barely fought with the power of the three divisions, in the end, it was nothing more than letting Helan Min subdue the law!

And once he does this, he will not only offend Empress Wu, but also offend Li Zhi, and will even let Xu Jingzong and Zhou Yunyuan completely stand on the opposite side of him, after all, this is forcibly tying people to the chariot, and facing such a powerful opponent.

I also want to know that after this incident, Li Hong can be said to have become a betrayal!

On the contrary, things have developed to such a point that Helan Minzhi will definitely not be able to continue to be free, and the Empress Wu may have been completely disappointed in him, and the current maintenance is only because it is openly announced that the world has killed Helan Minzhi, which will damage the reputation of the Empress Wu.

Even if Li Hong no longer insists, Helan Minzhi may end up under house arrest, or be sent to a place with poor mountains and bad waters, and live his whole life.

And this time Li Hong gently let go, it was to give Empress Wu a face, not only Li Zhi would accept his affection, but also greatly ease the tense relationship between himself and Empress Wu, and also get rid of a big trouble, which can be described as a hundred benefits and no harm!

But the words of bowing his head were in his throat, but he couldn't say anything.

ps: What do you think Brother Hong will choose? When the situation has reached this point, how can it be reversed?
