Chapter 139: Empress Wu Strikes

In desperation, Li Zhi set his eyes on Empress Wu, wanting to see what his wife meant.

In these years, Empress Wu has introduced a woman and handled political affairs for him, Li Yifu is his right-hand man, if Li Yifu really falls, I am afraid it will also be a great blow to the prestige of Empress Wu.

This time is different from the last time Helan Minzhi's matter, Helan Minzhi is domineering again, after all, he is just a gentleman, although he is a relative, but his death has a limited impact on the Empress Wu.

If Li Yifu is also overthrown, then Empress Wu's position in the previous dynasty will be in jeopardy.

So this matter is actually a head-on challenge to the authority of Empress Wu.

However, to Li Zhi's disappointment, Empress Wuliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was also distressed, obviously she was also caught off guard by Zhang Wenjun's performance.

The emperor and queen glanced at each other, and the queen opened her mouth.

"Li Zhongshu, is this true?"

The tone was slightly cold, obviously this matter made the Empress Wu unhappy.

Li Zhi had just asked this sentence once, and now Empress Wu asked it again, obviously with a different meaning!

Li Zhi was just a symbolic question, no matter what the facts were, Li Yifu would definitely deny it, but at this moment, Empress Wu asked again, which meant that he wanted to know the truth of the matter.

Things have developed to such a point that the Empress Wu must know the true situation of the matter before she can make a decision.

Li Yifu pondered for a moment, and said stubbornly.

"Niangniang, the minister did have a new concubine a month ago, but his origin has not been investigated in detail, but if you want to come to Dali Temple to take strict care, you will not make the criminal get away, not to mention that Dali Temple has always been honest and honest, there must be someone who is falsely accused, please Your Majesty Niangniang to investigate!"

In the end, there is inevitably a little lack of confidence.

Empress Wu's face changed suddenly. Calm quickly returned.

What Li Yifu meant by this was to admit it in disguise!

What kind of place is his Li Mansion, the mansion of a first-class official, how can a person with an unknown net worth be able to get in?

Even if he is an ordinary subordinate, he must be innocent to enter, not to mention the pillow person of his Li Yi Mansion, if he doesn't know the origin. How could it be carried into the house.

For a while, Empress Wu's silver teeth clenched, giving birth to a bit of hatred for iron not becoming steel.

But it was only a moment, Empress Wu calmed down, under the current situation, Li Yifu is absolutely guaranteed, as for the matter of accepting a concubine, it is not too late to settle accounts in the future, but how to protect it is a problem.

"Your Majesty, the stakes are high. Is it postponed? ”

Just when Empress Wu was hesitating, Xu Jingzong stood up and said in a deep voice.

Empress Wu glanced at Xu Jingzong approvingly, this old minister is worthy of being a figure who leans on his arm, and he has made the most favorable decision in a short period of time, as long as he can temporarily drag things down, there are many places that can be operated.

Before Li Zhi could express his position, Dai Zhide stood up first.

"Your Majesty, it's not right. The stakes are high, and the evidence is conclusive. Hear it immediately, and make sure the world is at ease! What's more, the Great Dynasty Meeting is the time for deliberations, so why postpone it! ”

His tone was cold and hard, and he directly pushed Xu Jingzong back.

Seeing that both sides refused to give in, Li Zhi was unable to make a decision for a while.

"Your Majesty......"

Empress Wu's voice suddenly sounded, making everyone's eyes in the hall focused. Waiting for what Empress Wu will say.

After a pause, Empress Wu spoke.

"This time, General Pei pacified the Turks, which is really a great achievement, but there is really something wrong with recruiting the enemy chieftains! I wonder what His Majesty intends to do with this matter? ”

Empress Wu's tone was very light, but the sharpness in it was obvious.

And although this sentence is asking Li Zhi. But Empress Wu's eyes were looking at Li Ji.

She was reminding Li Ji that Pei Xingjian's matter was still in her own hands and had not been disposed of, if she really wanted to move Li Yifu, she had to weigh it carefully.

Although the current situation seems to be very serious, Empress Wu grasped the key at a glance, and this matter was jointly signed by the four important ministers on the surface, but in fact it was the military's revenge on Li Yifu.

If the military is willing to stop, then things will be much easier.

Although the authority of Zhang Wenjun, Dai Zhide, and Hao Chujun is equally deep, Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu and other Wu officials are not vegetarians.

At that time, the Empress Wu can push the boat down the river and postpone the matter before discussing it, so that there will be many variables.

Therefore, the key at the moment lies in Li Ji's attitude.

I have to say that Empress Wu's senses are very keen, just a few words made Li Ji's face look ugly.

The impeachment of Li Yifu was a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and the original intention was to help Pei Xingjian get out of danger, but now Empress Wu's tone has obviously loosened a lot.

Li Ji understands that as long as he retreats in time, the Empress Wu will not be entangled in Pei Xingjian's affairs, which can be regarded as a happy situation.

It's just that the only dissatisfaction is probably the current serious prince Li Hong.

He wasted so much thought before he designed such a situation that could shake the status of Li Yifu, how could he give up easily.

If he retreats now, he will indeed be able to save Pei Xingjian, but he will undoubtedly offend Li Hong, and from the bottom of his heart, Li Ji is unwilling to offend such a prince who has been releasing goodwill to the military.

To put it mildly, now that the power of the military has reached a low point, if the prince is offended, if Li Hong really ascends the throne in the future, I am afraid that the life of the military will be even more difficult.

There is also something that had been agreed upon, but now he suddenly regretted it, which made Li Ji feel a little uneasy in his heart, and after weighing it for a moment, Li Ji said in a deep voice.

"Niangniang, General Pei's behavior may be inappropriate, but Li Yifu's morality is wrong, and he is involved in such a big case, so his twists and turns should naturally not be accepted, and the old minister implores Niangniang to order a thorough investigation of this case! Take the right dynasty! ”

This sentence was said eloquently, and it was obvious that he had already made up his mind.

Joke!

He Li Ji has been on the battlefield all his life, when has he ever suffered this kind of anger!

Someone dared to stab the military in the back so blatantly, if Li Ji compromised at this time, I am afraid that there will be more and more such things in the future.

Therefore, we must teach Li Yifu a hard lesson, and we must not let this kind of sign appear.

After figuring out this section, Li Ji's decision was much more decisive.

Li Hong on the side quietly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the old fox would not be able to withstand the pressure of Empress Wu just now, so he chose to compromise, then his arrangement would be in vain.

But fortunately, Li Ji is still the Li Ji he knows, although he is cunning like a fox, but he is never ambiguous in this kind of big thing.

Li Hong was happy, but Empress Wu's face sank suddenly.

She asked herself if she had made enough concessions, but she didn't expect Li Ji to be so stubborn.

In that case, don't blame her.

So in an instant, Empress Wu's eyes became extremely cold.
