It was night, outside the fragrant hall of Shangyang Palace, the lights were bright.

Wu Zetian walked leisurely on the siphon bridge, followed only by Shangguan Wan'er.

A dry servant male pet, all of them are waiting respectfully at the end of the sucking bridge, even the brother of Zhang Yi is also among them.

On the bridge, oil lamps are lit, like stars.

Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er strolled through it, looking outside, it was as if they were roaming the starry sky.

In the lake under the siphon bridge, there are hundreds, even thousands of lotus lanterns, which set off the grace of this scenery.

"It's an idea that Gorou came up with, but it's kind of interesting."

Wu Zetian stopped, suddenly turned around and asked, "Wan'er, have you asked?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er said softly: "I've already asked...... King Liang confessed to the transfer of troops and horses, but he said that he had no intention of harming Yang Shouwen. King Liang said: If Yang Shouwen is white, he may be killed; But the question is, Yang Shouwen is now doing things under orders, and he is not a fool, how dare he harm his life? He just wanted Zheng Keyi to try to stop Yang Shouwen for two days, and as long as August 15 passed, he would let him come back, and it would never hurt him. ”

"What do you think?"

"The minister thinks that what King Liang said is true."

"Oh?"

As King Liang said, he was bent on marrying the crown prince and had no other ideas.

If Yang Shouwen rushes back to Luoyang, if he participates, it is likely to ruin his good deeds...... That's why he wanted to block Yang Shouwen's entry into Beijing. But if he wants to kill Yang Shouwen! With all due respect, King Liang is not in his brain. ”

Wu Zetian smiled and nodded slightly.

"Wan'er. Do you know why I value you? ”

"This ...... The minister didn't know. ”

"I know you care about Yang Shouwen. I also became someone's aunt. But I still asked you to look into the matter. It's because I know that you will deal with it fairly. I am glad that you have this public heart...... Zheng Keyi is a stupid boy, if it weren't for the face of his daughter, I wouldn't let him take on the real shortage. But that's fine, and the daughter has nothing to say.

Passing on my will, it is said that Zheng Keyi is not talented enough to take on the heavy responsibility.

He was deposed from the post of lieutenant of the Governor of the Confucal Mansion. Demoted to Captain Yilu. He was fined for three years, with twenty rods, and then expelled from Luoyang, and went home to think about it behind closed doors. Without my will, you must not take half a step out of the house, otherwise you will be punished for the crime of defrauding the king. ”

This punishment is not big or small, but it is enough to make Zheng Keyi uncomfortable.

He is the son of Princess Qianjin, and his father is a member of the Zheng family, so he is not short of money. However, he was demoted from a guerrilla general under the fifth rank to a lieutenant under the seventh grade. It can't be said that it is not harsh! Zheng Keyi is a gentleman who likes the life of dogs and horses. Kicked out of Luoyang. Behind closed doors...... It really made him uncomfortable.

Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly said: "The minister understands. ”

"On King Liang's side, you will pass on a word on my behalf: Yang Shouwen is my courtier, and I want him to die, so he can die! I was very unhappy about what he did this time. Tell him that he will be punished for three years, and that from now on, he will not be allowed to take another step out of the house without my will. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Zetian's words suddenly changed.

"Since King Liang had no intention of killing Yang Shouwen, why did Sun Siguan want to poison him?"

"This, the minister is still investigating."

Shangguan Wan'er was also a little distressed, and secretly blamed herself in her heart: You kid, why did you provoke so many enemies not long after you came to Luoyang?

"Well, you'll have to look into it.

Also, before Gao Jian's performance, the southward route arranged by Yan Zhen was exposed, so that they were ambushed in Baishuitang.

Has this matter come to fruition? ”

Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a moment and said softly: "I don't have a clue yet." ”

"Huh?"

Wu Zetian's palm gently slapped the railing, although there was no emotional fluctuation, but Shangguan Wan'er understood that she was angry.

"The saint's anger is not because the minister is careless, but because it is too complicated.

The sage personally arranged the route to the south, and to put it mildly, there are not many people who know. In addition to those few participants, only the princess, the ministers, and the king of Liang, the king of Xiang, and the crown prince knew about it. King Liang, they shouldn't reveal it, it's not good for them. It is impossible for the minister to reveal it...... There is only one person left. ”

"You mean Taiping?"

"Herein lies the problem."

Shangguan Wan'er looked distressed and said softly: "It is even more impossible for Taiping to reveal this matter, you must know that Erlang is also in that team." ”

"Who could that be?"

"The minister has a suspicion, but it's not easy to investigate."

When Wu Zetian heard this, his eyes swept towards the bridge.

"You mean Goro? Yes, their brothers seem to be a little hostile to Yang Shouwen, but they don't know about this matter, let alone know the route I personally planned. Wan'er, as soon as I said that you have a public heart, you let me down. ”

Shangguan Wan'er shook her head again and again, "Sage, the minister is not talking about Brother Wulang. ”

"Oh?"

"The minister is suspicious of a person next to Taiping."

"Who?"

"Mu Mingyu."

For Wu Zetian, this is a very unfamiliar name.

She looked at Shangguan Wan'er in surprise and said, "Who is Mu Mingyu?" My ears are tight. ”

"This person appeared with the princess last year and has been following the princess all the time.

The minister could see that the princess trusted him very much, and even doted on him...... When the princess assigned the task that day, Mu Mingyu was also inside. Therefore, he should know about the Gaosheren going south! But it was not he who revealed the route, and the minister has not yet found evidence. ”

Speaking of this, Shangguan Wan'er hesitated.

She lowered her voice again and said softly: "However, according to the report of Xiaoluantai's secret agent, Mu Mingyu seems to know Sun Siguan. ”

Wu Zetian's eyebrows jumped, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"In this way, Mu Mingyu is indeed a little suspicious."

She wandered on the bridge and stopped after a while.

"Wan'er, you continue to investigate this person, and if necessary, you can arrest him.

Don't tell Taiping beforehand, I believe that Taiping will not be involved in such dirty affairs. The origin of this Mu Mingyu is unknown. So it's important to investigate. With you, you unleash all the power of Xiaoluantai. Be sure to find out the identity of this Mu Mingyu. ”

"Minister. Compliance. ”

Shangguan Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the pressure on her body seemed to have been reduced a lot at once.

"The day after that, the ...... of Takeko"

"You don't have to worry about this matter, I also want to see how this girl ends up in the end."

There wasn't much anger in her words, but a smile flashed in her cold phoenix eyes, and she seemed to be looking forward to it.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

East Palace. Inside the Prince's Mansion.

Wei Shi looked at Li Bao'er walking around in front of her, and had a feeling of crying and laughing.

This girl made such a scene, it's really too capricious!

Instead of stopping her, her old man accompanied her to mess around. For Li Bao'er, Webster's pampering is more than anyone's. This is not only because Li Bao'er is lively and cute, but also because of the thrill when Li Bao'er was born as a child. It can be said that Li Baoer almost died with her at that time, which also made Webster more connected with her.

As Li Bao'er grew up, Wei felt that this girl was becoming more and more like her.

"Wrap. Can't you just sit back and be quiet? ”

"Why hasn't the seventh sister come back yet?"

Li Bao'er sat down. But he pouted, looking angry.

Webster was about to speak to persuade when he heard footsteps outside the door.

Li Bao'er, who had just sat down, seemed to have a spring on his buttocks, and he suddenly jumped up and ran out quickly.

At the same time, a maiden in palace clothes came in from outside.

The girl looked extremely weak and outstanding.

Before she could cross the threshold with her other foot, she was startled by Li Bao'er who rushed towards her.

"Bao'er, don't be so crazy, okay?"

"How's that, how's that?"

Li Bao'er didn't care about the girl's dissatisfaction, took her hand, widened her eyes, and asked with a look of anticipation.

This girl is Li Xian's seventh daughter, and she is also from Wei's family, named Li Xianhui.

She couldn't cry or laugh, looked at Li Bao'er who was looking at her in front of her, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry, Yang Yu has already sent the waist card over, and Yang Shouwen has also accepted the ......."

"Hee-hee, I knew he would definitely participate."

"Bao'er, don't be too happy."

Li Xianhui hurriedly poured cold water on her, "Although Yang Yu gave him the waist card, he said after he came back that Yang Shouwen's body didn't seem to be very good. It is said that when he came back yesterday, he fell ill! Yang said that his complexion was not very good, and it was estimated that his illness had not yet recovered...... You are not afraid that he will be sick and weak by then, and even if he participates in the martial arts, he may not win the championship. ”

"He's sick?"

When Li Bao'er heard this, her face suddenly changed.

"Didn't Xiao Gao say that he looked good when he came back? How could it be sick? ”

There was a deep concern in his eyes, and he was even covered with a layer of mist.

"Is he feeling better now? Did you go to see Langzhong? ”

Li Xianhui sighed, stepped forward and hugged Li Bao'er in her arms, "Illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread...... Yang Shouwen is a wind evil invader, how can he heal so quickly? Speaking of which, Guan Guogong is very attentive. After hearing that he was sick, he also inquired about the situation and found the medical staff who treated him. Otherwise, I would have been back a long time ago. ”

"What did the medic say?"

"That medical worker is not a quack, he used to study in the Taiyi Department, and now he is sitting in Sigongfang.

He said that Yang Shouwen's illness was not serious, mainly because the loss of essence was too large, which led to weakness and wind and cold. Just take care of it and you'll be cured in no time. It's just that there's only one day left, and I'm not sure if I'll be cured. ”

Today is August 13th.

Tomorrow, August 14, and the day after tomorrow, August 15, the course will begin......

Li Bao'er suddenly panicked, snuggled in Li Xianhui's arms, and muttered 'How can it be good', tears ran down her cheeks and slipped silently.

At first, this girl didn't like Yang Shouwen very much.

Later, the woman disguised herself as a man and ran to mess with Yang Shouwen, but somehow she ......

When Wei saw Li Bao'er crying, he felt a heartache, and he couldn't care about scolding Li Bao'er for messing around.

She stood up and walked over and hugged Li Bao'er in her arms.

"My son is going to be like this...... When you cry, my mother's heart will break. ”

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!" Li Bao'er said sadly: "If I hadn't rushed him back from Changzhou, he would definitely not have been sick." Xiao Gao said that they started from Jiangbei and hardly rested along the way, rushing back day and night. Later, he also encountered an ambush in the Octagonal Mountain, it must be so, otherwise how could he be sick? ”

At this time, Li Bao'er didn't think about what Yang Shouwen would do if he couldn't win the championship.

She was more concerned about Yang Shouwen's condition, and fell into deep self-blame because of this.

She was already extremely beautiful, and this cry was more like rain hitting pear blossoms, and it was even more delicate, which made Wei and Li Xianhui feel heartache.

Bao'er has been optimistic since she was a child and has always been happy.

In Li Xianhui's memory, Li Bao'er rarely does this, and always behaves very sunny.

Maybe in the eyes of others, Bao'er is a little arrogant and a little domineering. But Li Xianhui knew that Bao'er's arrogance and domineering were a kind of self-protection. In the middle of nowhere, she had to be strong to survive.

Sometimes, she even kills people.

However, everything she did was to protect herself and the sisters around her......

If Yang Shouwen dares to live up to Bao'er, I will never spare him!

Li Xianhui secretly swore in her heart, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said softly: "Mother, this matter can only turn around if you come forward." ”

"Me?"

Wei Shi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Xianhui suspiciously.

"Qi Niang, tell me, what can I do? As long as it's not like that, anything goes. ”

Li Xianhui smiled: "How can it be so serious...... As long as the mother asks someone to help, Yang Shouwen will definitely be able to recover quickly. ”

Hearing Li Xianhui's words, Li Bao'er immediately stopped crying.

Her eyes widened, and tears remained on her face, like a little flower cat.

However, there was excitement in his eyes, and he took Li Xianhui's hand and asked again and again, "Seventh sister, who are you talking about?" (To be continued.) )
