Chapter 338: Aunt and Nephew Conspiracy
Since Li Xian was instructed, it took only more than four months to completely quell the war in the north and clear the worries of Xue Rengui's army on the expedition to Silla, such an astonishing speed is really shocking ancient and modern, because the distance from Luoyang to the end of Su is thousands of miles, even the march will take at least three months, so this speed is only equivalent to the army to go to the end of Su.

After the news reached the imperial court, the government and the opposition shook again, even more shocking than the death of Li Quanzhong and Sun Wanrong, because although this Da Zuorong is not very old, he is eloquent and strategic, partial and cunning, and he is really an extremely difficult opponent, and the threat to the Tang Dynasty is much greater than that of Li Quanzhong and Sun Wanrong, and even in the Tang court, some people suggested making peace with him and ordering him to rule over those tribes in the north.
Originally, everyone thought that it would take at least half a year to quell Da Zuorong's rebellion and force him to surrender, but they didn't expect that less than half a month after Li Xian put down Sun Wanrong's rebellion, the news came that Da Zuorong was dead, the alliance collapsed, and the rebellion was completely put down.
As a result, the government and the opposition sang praises of virtue, and Li Xian's prestige once again climbed to a new height.
This is naturally good news for those who have justice in their hearts and their hearts are in the Tang Dynasty, but for the members of the Hou Party, it is really very bad news, originally Empress Wu thought that the war in the north could drag down Li Xian's pace, if he could be deeply involved, that would be her best ending, because Gaozong's illness is getting worse and worse, I believe that as long as it drags on for another year and a half, Gaozong is likely to die, as long as Gaozong is not around when he dies, everything will naturally be in the hands of Empress Wu.
However, now that Li Xian has won a big victory, this has disrupted the deployment of the Empress Wu and made the Empress Wu a little confused.
"It's hateful, it's all Liu Deqiang, the dog minion, who is not doing things well, if the prince was killed at the beginning, where would he still have today's troubles?" Empress Wu's face was gloomy and could drip water, she snorted coldly and said hatefully.
"Auntie, at this time, the emperor has fallen into a coma, and Li Xian has not returned, do you want to ......" A trace of fierceness flashed in Wu Sansi's eyes, and his palm made a downward slashing motion, and said in a low voice.
"Hmph, the prince's servant has already been assassinated once, and this time he will naturally take more strict precautions, we have no chance." After Empress Wu said, a thick unwillingness flashed on her face, and she sighed softly.
"My aunt is wrong, my nephew doesn't mean this, Li Xian's family is naturally difficult to deal with, but there is no one around the emperor to ......" Although Wu Sansi knew that his words were too shocking, he was originally a little hesitant in his heart, but when he remembered his wife's plan for him named Wei Xiang'er, a trace of eagerness suddenly flashed in his heart, and he gritted his teeth and said quietly.
"Huh? You daring! Empress Wu also suddenly understood what Wu Sansi meant, and couldn't help but change her complexion, pointing at Wu Sansi and saying sharply: "Do you know what you are going to do?" You are a great crime of rebellion, this is a crime of extermination, this is the son of the Tang Dynasty, you are as kind to my Wu clan as a mountain, you are your uncle, you have such wolf ambitions! This palace thought that you were ignorant, so I spared you this time, and if there is a next time, it will definitely be severely punished. ”
But seeing Wu Sansi hurriedly knelt on the ground, he cried softly: "Auntie, my nephew knows that I am wrong, and my nephew also knows, my Wu family is deeply favored by the emperor, and I am quite favored and trusted, and I am a minister, and I should be loyal to the monarch to serve the country, but my aunt also knows that the emperor is wise everywhere, but he chose the wrong heir, although this prince looks very commendable on the surface, but he is narrow-minded and ruthless, not like the atmosphere of a benevolent monarch, if this person is allowed to inherit the throne, my nephew is afraid that there will be no peace in the world, and my brother, because of the offense against this person, I am afraid that he will not be able to survive in the world, I don't know when I will be wiped out by the **** Wu clan, and at that time, I don't know how my nephew should see the ancestor under Jiuquan? The nephew thought hard for a long time, in order to prevent my Wu family and the people of the world from falling into dire straits, the nephew would rather give up his own body and bear the infamy of the ages, but also to prevent the guy from succeeding to the throne, but that guy is good at demagoguery, so that the whole world is blinded by his disguise, so the nephew thinks hard for a long time, if he wants to stop that guy, there is only that trick. ”
Empress Wu couldn't help but be surprised when she heard this, because she had always known that her nephew had never learned or learned anything, but when she spoke today, she was full of emotion and reasonableness, which was really a bit unreasonable, but she was relieved in her heart, after all, her nephew grew up, and naturally became a powerful arm for her to seek a higher position.
However, Empress Wu still didn't want to do what Wu Sansi said, after all, her thirty-year husband and wife relationship with Gaozong was not fake, not to mention that the matter had not yet reached the last step, so there was no need to take risks like this.
So Empress Wu sighed lightly, and then said: "Despite this, you can't come up with such a rebellious idea, about the prince, I already have a countermeasure, as soon as he returns, I will start to deal with him, this time he will definitely be doomed, you just need to do this and ......"
After Empress Wu finished speaking, Wu Sansi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said happily: "It turns out that my aunt has already planned all this, hehe, my aunt's foresight, my nephew really admires, poor nephew is so ignorant, he even thinks about planning for his aunt, and what's even more pitiful is that my nephew actually made a decision, but he is still so complacent......."
"You little guy, don't be so wildly guessing", Empress Wu smiled faintly, and said to Wu Sansi: "This palace didn't expect that you have made great progress these days, this palace heard that you married a flower-like daughter-in-law, who is from Jingzhao Wei's family, and I heard that your daughter-in-law is shrewd and virtuous, soft on the outside and strong on the inside, but a person with a lot of ideas, could it be that you just did this, but your daughter-in-law taught her?" ”
"This, hehe, everything can't escape my aunt's eyes", Wu Sansi smiled, and then calmly explained: "Don't hide it from my aunt, this is indeed a combination of my nephew and my wife, my lady is both beautiful and extraordinary, she can be described as the nephew's daughter-in-law, in fact, back then, she almost became her aunt's daughter-in-law, but unfortunately, the prince did not have such blessings, and now she has become the nephew's daughter-in-law, not only can help the nephew, but also help the aunt." ”
Despite this, there was a trace of hatred in Wu Sansi's eyes, because he deeply understood that his lady had been humiliated by Li Xian, even if it was for his own lady, he must seize Li Xian's rightful position, and when he took the throne, he would definitely let Li Xian kneel in front of his husband and wife and humiliate him fiercely.
