When Li Tao saw Cui Xiang, his eyes were red and swollen, unkempt, and he had completely lost his past grace.

"Lao Cui, tell me, how did Shangguan Wan'er die?" Li Tao asked bluntly.

Cui Xiang did not speak.

"If you don't say it, I also know that Shangguan Wan'er didn't commit suicide, but was killed!"

Cui Yu still didn't speak.

"If I'm not mistaken, it must have been Princess Taiping's doing!"

Cui Xiang's lips trembled, and he finally burst into tears.

Li Tao knew what Cui Xiang was feeling, and he didn't persuade him, just looked at him silently and let him cry bitterly.

Finally, Cui Xiang raised his head, his eyes were full of hatred: "I want revenge!" ”

"How are you going to get revenge?"

"I'm going to kill Princess Taiping."

Li Tao smiled and shook his head.

"What? Are you scared? Don't dare to help me! ”

Li Tao said indifferently: "It's not that I don't want to help you, but you are too emotional now, and you may not be able to listen to what I say, nor can you understand it." If you're so impulsive now, you can't take revenge at all, you're a smart person, you should be able to figure this out! ”

Cui Xiang was silent.

After a long time, Cui Xiang finally said: "I understand what you mean, what you can say now." ”

"You have to tell me first, how did Shangguan Wan'er die?"

"Wan'er did commit suicide, but he didn't do it voluntarily, but was forced to commit suicide!"

"Princess Taiping forced it?"

Cui Xiang nodded, took out a piece of letterhead from the hidden place on the desk and handed it to Li Tao: "This is what Wan'er left for you." ”

"Leave it for me?" Li Tao took the letterhead suspiciously. Open it for a closer look.

Sure enough, it was Shangguan Wan'er's handwriting on the paper, and after reading it, Li Tao sighed: "I finally understand!" ”

The letter was written before Shangguan Wan'er committed suicide. Tell Princess Taiping to kill herself, and she can't resist because Princess Taiping threatens the lives of her mother, sister, and Cui Xiang. She understands that Princess Taiping can do what she says. Shangguan Wan'er told Li Tao that Princess Taiping wanted her to die for three reasons. First, Princess Taiping has always been ambitious, and the reason why she wants to poison Zhongzong. is to become the princess of the prison country to assist the young lord, and when the time is ripe, wait for the opportunity to get rid of Empress Wei, and become the second female emperor after her mother. And the two edicts he drafted after Zhongzong's death did not mention her at all. This made her quite annoyed. Second, Princess Taiping has always liked Cui Xiang, and she is jealous of the love affair between herself and Cui Xiang, in order to dominate Cui Xiang. I have to die. Third. After Princess Anle's personal maid Yuyu disappeared, Princess Taiping suspected that she knew the inside story, and in order to prevent the inside story from being leaked, she also prompted her to kill herself. In the letter, Shangguan Wan'er begged Li Tao to help her take care of her mother, sister and Cui Xiang, and not let her hard work go to waste.

Li Tao handed the letter to Cui Xiang and said, "Shangguan Wan'er hopes that you will live well, wouldn't you have failed her hard work by avenging her?" ”

Cui Xiang said miserably: "She is dead, how can I live alone, even if I live." How different is it from The Walking Dead. ”

"You figured it out?"

Cui Yu nodded.

Li Tao pondered for a moment, and said to Cui Xiang: "I can help you avenge Shangguan Wan'er." But there are three ways, I don't know which one you want to use. ”

Cui Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "I wish to hear it." ”

"First, you don't need to make a move, you just have to watch, she will definitely die at my hands."

"No way!" Cui Xiang flatly refused: "I have to kill her with my own hands." ”

"Second, I can find a way to capture Princess Taiping secretly, so that you can personally kill her."

Cui Xiang frowned and said noncommittally: "You can talk about the third way." ”

"For Princess Taiping, death is nothing to her, and only letting her die without turning a blind eye is the biggest punishment for her. The third option is ......"

After Cui Xiang heard this, Huo Ran got up and said, "Just follow this method, I must let her die without turning a blind eye." ”

"Lao Cui, you have to think about it, this will make you infamous for a lifetime."

Cui Xiang said generously: "My heart is dead, and this infamy is like dung to me." Lantian Wang, we met once, you know my character. ”

Speaking of this, Cui Xiang bowed deeply to Li Taoguang: "Cui asked the king of Lantian to fulfill Cui's wish!" ”

Li Tao felt the tragedy on Cui Xiang's body, and he sighed: "I promised you." ”

……

After meeting Cui Xiang, Li Tao and Pei Yue hurriedly came to Tianci Temple.

Li Tao was used to joking with Purun, and as soon as he entered Purun's room, he sat on a futon with a big grin and said with a smile: "Great monk, you are in a hurry to see me, are you being favored by the eldest lady and the little lady again, and you need me to solve the siege?" ”

Pu Run did not have the calm expression of the past, but had a heavy face: "King Lantian, this is a big deal!" ”

"Tell me, then, what is the big deal?" Li Tao still has a joking face.

Purun hurriedly explained the situation in detail.

Li Tao's brows furrowed when he listened, and when he finished listening, he couldn't help but stand up and paced, and said to himself: "It seems that it is really a big thing!" ”

Pu Run's nervous gaze moved back and forth as he watched Li Tao's figure.

Finally, Li Tao stopped, and he said to Purun: "You let this Cui Riyong come to Tianci Temple now, and I will talk to King Linzi about him personally." ”

Purun nodded and said, "I'll arrange it now." ”

Seeing Purun come out of the abbot's meditation room, Li Tao said to Pei Yue: "Uncle Yue, you go and let the King of Linzi come to Tianci Temple quickly, don't let others notice." ”

Pei Yue nodded and turned away.

……

"Tao'er, you're finally back?"

Li Tao couldn't understand why everyone said this for the first time when they saw him, even Li Longji was no exception, but he didn't have time to think about it now, and said: "Third uncle, you are too careless in doing things, and a big disaster is coming soon!" ”

Li Longji was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why Li Tao had no head and no brains to say this, he was puzzled: "Tao'er, what's wrong, you can understand it." ”

"Third uncle, do you know Cui Riyong, the squire of the military department?"

Li Longji shook his head blankly.

"That's ......"

Li Longji is preparing to launch a coup d'état to get rid of Empress Wei's party, and to do this kind of act of resisting the strong with the weak and committing chaos, and secrecy is life. However, he didn't expect that despite his great caution, he was still noticed by one person, and this person was Cui Riyong, the squire of the military department. Cui Riyong is Zong Chuke's henchman, and he can be regarded as Empress Wei's henchman, he has accurate vision, and what he is best at is seeing the wind and steering the rudder. Now, he is on the ship of Empress Wei, of course he knows Empress Wei's intention to be the emperor, and he feels unsure no matter how he looks at it. Therefore, he decided to change his course.
