Chapter 594: Slap in the face

Wu Zetian's words were full of sarcasm.

These sarcasms sounded extremely bad to Empress Wei.

It's just that...... Empress Wei said with a smile: "The emperor's body is hearty. ”

I wanted to say something later, but I still didn't want to say it after all, she had flattered Wu Zetian for half her life, and now she ...... But it was very difficult for her.

Wu Zetian said: "How is the Son of Heaven?" ”

Empress Wei said: "Your Majesty's health has improved a little, and he has woken up, but I am afraid that it will not be long before he can see things." ”

"So...... I should have gone and seen it. Of course, Wu Zetian knew his intention, although he was actually seeing a needle, but on the surface, he came to see his son.

Since Wu Zetian opened his mouth to speak, how could Empress Wei dare to object to anything, after all, this is not painful for her, and a piece of meat is missing.

Wu Zetian walked into the dormitory, she slowly took a few steps forward, and then saw Li Xian.

Li Xian looked very weak, but he seemed to be much better than before, at least now he has regained consciousness, the female officials and eunuchs on the side have retreated, seeing Wu Zetian, Li Xian's expression is a little ugly, he coughed desperately a few times, so Wei Shi hurriedly stepped forward and gently rubbed his back for him.

The corners of Wu Zetian's eyes only swept slightly over Li Xian's body, she was still expressionless, and just said lightly: "I am finally relieved to see the emperor recovering from a serious illness." ”

Li Xian looked at Wei Shi uneasily, Wei Shi glanced at him, and Li Xian said breathlessly: "Erchen...... The son made the mother queen worried, and he really died...... Ahem...... Ahem......"

Wu Zetian just smiled faintly, and suddenly said: "I am in Luoyang, and I heard some rumors, it is said that ...... Is the emperor's illness because someone drugged him? ”

As she spoke, the corner of her eye swept towards Merriam-Webster.

Merriam-Webster's face was expressionless.

Li Xian said eagerly: "This is because my own body is not good, and it is because I am usually absurd, so I owe my body." It's my fault......"

"Really?" Wu Zetian didn't say anything more, and a trace of disappointment couldn't hide it in her indifferent eyes.

Once...... She set up Li Xian, of course, because of her selfishness, she knew that Li Xian had a weak personality and was easy to control. It's just that what I never expected was that the person who manipulated Li Xian was not himself, but Empress Wei.

She smiled faintly: "That is the case, then the emperor should cherish his body even more, the country of the Tang Dynasty." It's up to you to support you. ”

"Yes, yes......" Lee Hsien agreed.

Wu Zetian smiled, she knew that she was not a popular figure here, so she said: "I, it's time to take a break, but I don't know, is there still a place for me in this Daming Palace?" ”

Wei Shi hurriedly chuckled: "Ziwei Palace has ordered someone to clean up, so I will ask the mother emperor to go there to sleep." Take a rest first, and the son will go to ask the mother how well he is early in the morning. ”

Wu Zetian nodded, just about to leave. Suddenly, she stopped and said, "I remembered something, did Empress Wei want to summon Qin Shaoyou to Chang'an?" ”

Webster's face changed.

It's really rubbing salt on the wound.

At first, her plan was very clear. In the name of the critical illness of the Son of Heaven, Qin Shaoyou was summoned to Chang'an, and then simply cut the grass and eradicated the roots.

The courtiers are out and want to be recalled. It's not impossible, but if it's an ordinary time, if Qin Shaoyou is sick, or if he is looking for another reason, he can refuse, and even as long as he instigates the mutiny of the officials and soldiers below, and then he can write a letter in a grand manner, saying that Henan Mansion is in danger, and if he wants to quell the rebellion, he can also delay time.

All in all, if a person doesn't want to come, then he will have a hundred reasons not to come, unless the court has made up its mind to turn against him, it is not easy to call people to Chang'an.

But once His Majesty is critically ill, it is another matter, the Son of Heaven is critically ill, naturally he has to prepare to support the orphan, if you don't come, this is a big rebellion, at that time, once the Son of Heaven is angry, then everyone in the world will regard you as a traitor who deceives the king.

The reason for this...... Invulnerable, indeed.

It's just something that Empress Wei never imagined, why did the news leak, after the leakage, rumors spread outside in advance, which led to a lot of discussion in the world, and immediately after, Wu Zetian took advantage of this gap to return to Chang'an, and countless anti-Wei people also surfaced, an emperor, plus three princes, plus many old ministers of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the rising popular will, and even in addition to the Beijing division, many hesitant governors.

At this time...... Empress Wei obviously can't let the emperor play the trick of being critically ill anymore, once Li Xian at this time spreads the news of being critically ill again, I am afraid that the three princes, as well as many people, will gather their own henchmen to rebel in the name of the emperor's edict for the first time, and Qin Shaoyou outside, and even some unscrupulous governors, will also participate in it, and the inside and outside should be together, and the world will be turned upside down.

Even if the rebellion can be quelled, but at this time, killing three more rebellious princes, as well as the loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty, will give Qin Shaoyou even more the truth to crusade against Wei, such a stupid thing, does Wei dare to continue to do it?

The only thing Webster can do at the moment is to hope that the emperor can get better, and His Majesty's body is good, so at least he can temporarily settle the prince of the clan, and even the hearts of the rest of the people, and this is the only way.

The problem is that since Your Majesty is not critically ill, not only is there no good reason to summon Qin Shaoyou into the palace again, but Qin Shaoyou also has no excuse for not obeying the edict, and promulgating the edict is just a slap in the face.

So...... At this time, Wei only needed to protect himself, and by no means summon Qin Shaoyou to Beijing.

Wu Zetian knew that Wei Shi had dispelled this idea at this time, but he suddenly asked like this, and the irony was obviously incomparable.

Wei Shi was already gritting his teeth in his heart, but he was helpless, and said, "Is there such a thing?" Mother Emperor, the rumors outside are not enough to believe, these are just the words of a group of good deeds, Qin Shaoyou is in Henan, guarding the eastern part of the country, the relationship is very important, since he is the governor of one party, how can he easily leave his post without permission, now the court is safe, although His Majesty is sick, but he will soon recover from his illness, how can he summon Qin Shaoyou to Beijing. ”

"So, Qin Shaoyou, the king of Wei, still has to stay in Luoyang?" Wu Zetian looked at Wei with a smile. Then he sighed: "I originally thought that I could let Qin Shaoyou come to Chang'an to accompany me, but you are right, he guards the eastern part of the country, and the relationship is very important, so Luoyang is not possible without Qin Shaoyou, although I came to Chang'an, I miss him very much, but ...... It's better not to let him come to Chang'an. ”

Wei listened to Wu Zetian's hypocritical words, but these words were in the front. But it was like a slap in the face, unceremoniously slapped in her face.

She can be regarded as having exhausted the organs, spent so much effort, and used so much thought, but in the end, people did not deceive Chang'an, but attracted her own SAO.

Right now...... Webster's situation is not good, where is she still interested, playing some kind of tricks that are critically ill. I just hope that Li Xian can recover immediately, summon the minister, and calm people's hearts.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and at this moment. Wu Zetian didn't say hello anymore and left.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………

In Webster's heart, I'm afraid there is only a wry smile left.

It was Li Xian who began to be depressed.

Inexplicably ill. Finally got up, who knew that the mother queen actually came, for this mother queen. He was a little scared as always, and now that he had recovered from a serious illness, he felt very uneasy to think that his mother lived in Ziwei Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's time for a rest. His Majesty has just recovered from a serious illness, and he should recuperate for a few days, but after a few days, he should also see the princes of the court, and they should also be worried, as for the mother and the emperor, since the concubine is the daughter-in-law to greet him, His Majesty does not need to worry. ”

Li Xian's face softened a little, and he looked at Wei Shi gratefully: "So...... There is Queen Lao. ”

In recent days, Chang'an City is still in chaos.

The emperor returned to Chang'an, which caused turbulent waves and a huge momentum, and some of the emperor's henchmen never dared to take the lead in Chang'an in the past, and the vast majority of people were still holding on to a little hope and continued to serve the court.

But now...... But they found that they had no choice, in the past, as long as they did not show their position, at most they would not be favored by the Wei family, and they would get any high positions, but at least, they did not have to worry about the danger of their lives.

Now, it's completely different, who can guarantee that once the Wei family really usurps the throne, they won't pursue what happened yesterday?

Now, there is a rumor in Chang'an City that has begun to flow again, that is...... Because the emperor returned to Chang'an, and the relationship between the three princes, the 'illness' of the Son of Heaven will definitely improve, because those who want to poison the Son of Heaven will not dare to risk the condemnation of the world and directly kill the Son of Heaven because they see that the situation is not right.

This rumor has been spread by many people.

But it made the Wei family suffer.

They had no intention of harming the Son of Heaven, and of course they also hoped that the Son of Heaven would get better as soon as possible, so that they could become the protector of their Wei family.

But now these rumors outside still confirm the Wei family's intention to murder the Son of Heaven, and at the same time, ...... It almost told the people of the world that the reason why the Wei family stopped and the Son of Heaven could survive was not because of any kindness of the Wei family, but because of the timely appearance of the emperor, as well as the result of the concerted efforts of the prince and some loyal people.

The human heart is lost, and it seems that whatever you do is wrong.

The Wei family is now in such an embarrassing situation.

Sure enough, a few days later, news came out from the inner court, but His Majesty had recovered from a serious illness, and he had to summon some important ministers to discuss state affairs.

Suddenly...... Many people began to rejoice.

Your Majesty is actually fine.

They had already decided that the Wei family had to kill His Majesty, but His Majesty's improvement was like a victory.

It turns out that the Wei family also has a time of fear, it turns out that they are also afraid of people's hearts, it turns out that the emperor can really be relied on, it turns out that as long as everyone works together, they Wei family ...... Still have to retract it.

Wei Hou...... It's not a big deal.

This method of controlling public opinion is really subtle, it has imagined almost any possibility and released the news in advance, but the Wei family on the cusp will always only be passively scolded.

The pattern of the temple has begun to change quietly, and the second prince Li Chongfu and the third prince Li Chongjun have also become active.

In the past, they were trembling and walking on thin ice, for fear that something would happen to them, and in the end, they would be caught by the Wei family, or they would be jealous, and they would directly cut themselves off.

And now, having obtained this long-lost 'victory', they suddenly have a feeling that it turns out ...... I also have strength, it turns out that as long as I form a group, the Wei family ...... Actually, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Case......... He is dignified and noble, so why should he be so aggrieved.

The three princes and some important ministers arrived at the Changle Palace a few days later, where Li Xian, dressed in thick clothes and still a little pale, began to summon these close ministers.

In fact, during this visit, everyone understood that His Majesty's body was still very weak, and in fact, he could not discuss any state affairs.

This is just a formality, a declaration to the world that the Son of Heaven is cured.

So Li Xian only said a few words without a match, and then began to panting.

And the three princes naturally looked distressed, and asked their father to take care of the dragon body.

The other ministers only said some painless words in general.

Half an hour later, this audience ended, Li Chongfu and the ministers came out of Changle Palace, he couldn't help but look in the direction of Ziwei Palace, his mood today was obviously quite relaxed.

He suddenly felt that he had a lot of courage, and these courages made him discover...... It turns out that as a noble self, life can be different.

He pursed his lips, but he remembered one thing, the King of Wei in Henan Mansion was the Dinghai God Needle, speaking of which...... I deserve a lot of thanks to him.
