Chapter 412: Wu Sansi Must Die
Although he promised Yang Wulian, Wang Ju felt even more uneasy.
The key to this matter seems to have become Wu Sansi, and Wu Sansi's mind ...... It seems to be self-explanatory.
Wu Zetian's 'illness' has become worse day by day, and there are more and more times when he talks nonsense, even to the point of incoherence.
This dying old emperor seems to have lost all his luster all at once, and all his ambitions have long been consumed by illness, Ziwei Palace has always been extremely quiet, and the nobles who came to visit him before have disappeared, even some eunuchs who stayed behind seem to have begun to drift away.
People are like this, especially in the palace, the vast majority of the people who stay in this Luoyang Palace are old and weak, and they used to be afraid of Wu Zetian, but now, they are mostly estranged.
Now the most popular is Empress Wei, and there is only one person in the Wei family in the palace, and that is Wei Zhengde. As a result, there are naturally many people who sell themselves to please people.
The coldness of Ziwei Palace, like the moon this night, is desolate and desolate, it seems that from a distance, you can see the lonely shadow of Gui, but on the side of the 'Gui tree', there is no one.
In the middle of the night, Shangguan Wan'er always carefully carried a lantern to the dormitory to visit, and outside was a medical officer and a small eunuch, both leaning on the stone base and napping with their heads, and snoring.
Shangguan Wan'er tightened the fox fur cloak on her body, and quietly entered the hall like a phantom.
She hung the lantern on the hook on the wall, Wu Ze was afraid of light at night, so the palace lamp had already been extinguished, and at this moment the light of the lantern sprinkled in, it seemed that it could not penetrate the depth and darkness, but it was still hazy and brought a trace of light.
Shangguan Wan'er walked through the curtain, and saw that Wu Zetian on the couch was still asleep, so she carefully folded the quilt for Wu Zetian as usual.
In the past year, Shangguan Wan'er has been living like this, although she has yet to be edicted. But there is no longer the truth to be edicted, in fact, she has become Wu Zetian's thorough personal female official, and it is naturally unnecessary to serve tea and water, but every morning when she gets up, she goes to Mingtang with Wu Zetian to worship the Buddha, and then she uses some coarse tea and light rice. This simple and ordinary life seems to have made her carefree and joyless, like a nun under the green light, with no color on her face.
She tucked the quilt and was about to turn away.
There was a low cough behind him.
Shangguan Wan'er's shoulders trembled, and she was busy turning.
Under the dim light, she saw that Wu Zetian's eyes were already open, and those eyes were still cloudy. But it seems that only when there is no one in this silence can there be a majesty that people cannot look at directly.
"The Emperor......" Shangguan Wan'er whispered softly.
"Hmm......" Wu Zetian nodded, struggling to sit up.
Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly stepped forward and added a cushion to her.
Wu Zetian smiled. There was no trace of illness, and she said lightly: "The news from the outside, what's wrong?"
Shangguan Wan'er said: "That Wei Zhengde has been watching more and more carefully recently, and the palace is full of his eyes and ears......"
Speaking of which. Wu Zetian frowned and said disdainfully: "It is human nature to tend to be inflammatory. How could I not know? She raised her eyes and glanced at the quiet Shangguan Wan'er, but the eyes in her eyes turned from coldness at the beginning to tenderness.
Only when people are most depressed can they see the cold state of the world, but who says that they can't see the truth in this world.
Shangguan Wan'er is almost the person Wu Zetian pulled up, without Wu Zetian, there would be no Shangguan Wan'er today.
And this girl, even in the most difficult times, never gave up on herself, loyal, just when everyone began to talk insincerely, she still followed behind her, as if she was still the most powerful woman in the world.
Now at this point, his daughter Li Lingyue must have been blocked, and Empress Wei would never dare to let Li Lingyue come to visit her, so in the past year, the only person who has accompanied Wu Zetian is Shangguan Wan'er.
Shangguan Wan'er seemed to be unaware of Wu Zetian's words, but she still continued: "However, the minister still inquired about some news, Your Majesty and Empress Wei have arrived in Chang'an, and Qin Shaoyou has been appointed as the governor of Henan Mansion, but ...... Henan Mansion Yin is the king of Liang......"
Speaking of which...... Many, many things seem to have been hinted at.
With Wu Zetian's cleverness, how could he not guess what the arrangement was behind this, but Wu Zetian was actually very calm, this calm was as if she was a person who stayed out of the matter, Qin Shaoyou was not her son-in-law, and as for that Wu Sansi, it was not her nephew.
Wu Zetian seemed to maintain his posture in the darkness, not saying a word.
And Shangguan Wan'er naturally didn't dare to interject, just waited quietly.
After a long time, Wu Zetian's eyes suddenly opened, and he said, "It seems...... Wu Sansi is completely like Webster, the nature of this person...... In fact, I already knew that he was my nephew, how could I not see through it, this time, Empress Wei's wishful thinking, I am afraid that he will use Wu Sansi to control Qin Shaoyou, this is ...... It is indeed a good move, and Webster has quite a few means, as for Wu Sansi...... He is a good chess piece, he can't be beaten and scolded, Qin Shaoyou is afraid that this time, he is afraid that he will kick the iron plate. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Zetian let out a long sigh, looking very sorry, but she didn't get angry because of Wu Sansi's betrayal, as if all this was taken for granted, she continued: "But...... If this stumbling block can't be removed, the Shence Mansion will definitely die. In the past, the capital of the country was Luoyang, and Qin Shaoyou could still rely on these more than 10,000 elite soldiers to make the court jealous, but now that the court has gone thousands of miles away, he ...... It's just a lone army, Wei's in Chang'an, now needs to gain a firm foothold, so he doesn't have the kung fu to take care of Qin Shaoyou, but in the long run, Qin Shaoyou is trapped in Hongnong County, and is clamped down by Wu Sansi, Wei's power is a thousand miles a day, as long as the Wei family finds an excuse, at that time, it will be hundreds of thousands of troops to press the border, with Wei Zhengde and Wu Sansi echoing it, Qin Shaoyou will become a prisoner of the order sooner or later, he asks for life, only to completely control Henan Mansion, strong soldiers, and continue to grow, Otherwise, once this balance of power is broken, there will be no place to die. ”
"But, ah......" Wu Zetian shook his head: "According to me, if I want to move Wu Sansi, it is not so easy, if you can't move away, you will die, and the radical means will also die, and you will be in a dilemma, but you really can't take care of each other." ”
Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but say, "Perhaps...... He may not have a way. ”
Wu Zetian's tone suddenly became firm: "Of course he has to have a way, if he has no way, does he want to let me pretend to be crazy and stupid to spend the rest of my life?" Speaking of this, Wu Zetian's expression was even more resolute, and he said word by word: "So Qin Shaoyou must get up from the mud, I don't care about how to play his chess, but in my chessboard, he is the only one who can't do it, otherwise...... It's just a whole game to lose. Wu Sansi ...... "Wu Zetian's expression became indifferent, she made a look, Shangguan Wan'er understood, and was busy pouring tea for her, but she found that the tea on the side was a little cold, and she was about to change it, but Wu Zetian shook her head, signaling that she didn't have to bother, and then she showed a hint of distress, leaned back slightly, closed her eyes, but the last sentence still came out of her mouth: "Must die!" ”
Shangguan Wan'er's shoulders trembled slightly, and she felt the killing intent.
This kind of killing intent is the most terrifying, Wu Sansi must die...... Was it because of his betrayal? Apparently...... No...... Shangguan Wan'er knew Wu Zetian too well, and when Wu Zetian mentioned Wu Sansi's betrayal, there was no expression fluctuation on her face, as if everything was so ordinary, but when it came to this move, she said these six words without hesitation, which means that in the emperor's opinion, the reason why Wu Sansi must die is only because...... He was in the way of the Emperor.
A person who will not have murderous thoughts because of the betrayal or betrayal of others, but can never tolerate mercy because his nephew blocked his steps, how ruthless and terrible is such a person......
Shangguan Wan'er sighed slightly, this woman who had fallen asleep had always been the object of her admiration and admiration, but she found that in many things, she still couldn't learn, maybe ...... Some things are innate, Wu Ze should be born with the Ninety-Five, and he ...... At best, it should be an edict...... So much for.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Shangguan Wan'er tiptoed out of Ziwei Palace.
She didn't dare to look back, because she seemed to have a feeling that the emperor was not sleeping, and was looking at her back through the gauze tent and curtains, so she carefully took off the lantern and went out of the main hall.
It's just that...... Shangguan Wan'er has long lost her past respect on their bodies and faces.
This kind of perfunctory gesture, it seems that they have already seen that the woman in the temple can no longer give them anything, so they just maintain some due etiquette in a coping style.
Shangguan Wan'er didn't care about this, she smiled, the smile at this moment, under the tragic moonlight, was as innocent as the peach blossoms blooming in spring, she said softly: "Don't be polite, take care of the emperor." ”
She still moved, curling away like a wisp of smoke. (To be continued.) )
