The imperial court's sea fishing documents were issued very quickly, and the efficiency of the various ministries reached an unprecedented level, and in just half a day, the official documents of the arrest of the thief Li Qianli and others left Luoyang City and dispersed in all directions.

At this time, outside the Xuanwu Gate, Wu Chu rode a flame horse, a pair of slender eyes squinted slightly, looking at the gate of the round wall, the round wall city is the north clamp city, the city gate is slightly lower than the Xuanwu Gate, the purpose is that even if there are strong soldiers to attack, the soldiers can retreat to the Xuanwu Gate, and throw stones and arrows into the round wall city on the tower of the Xuanwu Gate.

Wu Chu naturally couldn't lose Zuo Yu Lin Wei's elite to attack the city, and he wouldn't give up his geographical advantage, let alone let those soldiers who kept poking out from the city surrender or something, he had his purpose.

Immediately, he directly mobilized thirty catapults to stand on the tower of Xuanwu Gate, and ordered the miscellaneous servants of various departments to act as coolies, carrying boulders and throwing objects. When the hooks, ladders and other climbing equipment were ready, an order was given, and a huge stone was thrown on the tower of Xuanwu Gate City, as if it was the next boulder rain. In an instant, the soldiers at the head of the round wall city were stoned to death and injured a large number of people, screaming again and again.

After half an hour of boulder rain, after the collapse of more than a dozen stone-throwing vehicles, Wu Chu gave another order, the left Yulin guards set up a ladder, and began to ascend the city at a very fast speed, there were only sparse arrows at the head of the city, and there was not much damage to the right Yulin Wei, but after a few breaths, the first wave of soldiers boarded the city, only to see that the city was in a mess, but there were not many dead and wounded soldiers, and soon cleared the rebel soldiers at the head of the city, and then opened the city gate.

Wu Shui rode slowly into Yuanbi City, his face gloomy. There was no anger at all, his goal had been achieved, as for how many troops Li Qianli could leave behind. He wasn't worried at all. Of course, he is not worried about whether Li Qianli can escape, with this matter, his goal will be achieved.

In this matter, what he didn't expect was Wu Yizong's participation, let alone what he didn't expect. Wu Yizong was actually killed by Li Qianli! Such a wonderful ending made Wu Shui really happy in his heart. Back then, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi sent Wu Yizong to Shangyuan County to kill him, but they were almost done by themselves. Although this hatred has slowly faded over the years, it is impossible to make Wu Yi like an enemy, not to mention that Wu Yizong's character is indeed not very good. What's more, as a clan, he plays the role of a cool official and liquidates. It's just a matter of time.

Anyway. Wu Yizong's death will undoubtedly make the empress more aware that if the Li family is passed on to the throne, then the fate of the Wu family in the future will be like Wu Yizong, and there will be no place to bury him! What's more, even she may not be able to enter the mausoleum safely.

As for now. Both sons changed their surnames to Wu, but no one knows. That's just a stopgap measure. As for the empress, how could a person who can rule a country have no power beyond ordinary people, how could she take the throne from her son? How could the Empress not know the hatred of her two sons for her? Although this hatred is only hidden because of a temporary weakness.

Of course, unless the empress is completely old and faint, she will not care about the Wu family and pass on to the Li family, but even so, when there is no Li Tang old minister in the court, what is it for? This is Wu Zheng's last move.

First cut off the old ministers of Li Tang in the court, and then slowly plotted to seize the throne, this strategy Wu Chu also learned from the empress No. When the empress ascends the throne, isn't it to reuse her cronies, cut off the rebellious courtiers, and when all the people in the court are her own, then the change of dynasty will be carried out naturally.

Wu Chu will not create so many grotesque things of gods and Buddhas, let alone pretend to be deaf and dumb to make any immortal Buddha come to the world. But he had to have a reasonable way of succession, which naturally came from the empress. As long as it is confirmed that he is also one of the successors, whether it is a usurpation or a coup d'état in the future, it will be legitimate!

What's more, history is written by the victors! And the people of the world will only remember the victors, as for who became the emperor, what does it matter to them?

Inside the Round Wall Castle.

As Wu Chuan expected, Li Qianli had already opened the city gate and fled to the north in the mountains, but Wu Chuan did not immediately search the mountains, but ordered someone to take the map of Luozhou.

When the guards took the map, Wu Chu stared at the map for a while, and then slowly nodded at a few points around the mountain, and said: "Leave three thousand Zuo Yu Lin Guards to garrison the palace, and the rest of the soldiers will order the generals of each Lang to lead their departments, prepare seven days of dry food, and go into the mountains to search." The order is that all states and counties must strictly check the population entering and leaving the city gates. 5,000 jade guards were dispatched to various key roads and passes in Bishan to strictly investigate, and Xue Ne was ordered to quickly count the losses of the right feather forest guard, and report the roster of soldiers. Within ten days, as for Li Qianli, if you want to see people alive and die, you will see corpses, and if you dare to slack off, you will not be spared! ”

Although King Wei's tone was softened, the killing intent revealed in his words suddenly made his subordinates feel cold, so he hurriedly bowed down and agreed, and gave the order to leave.

The Yuanbi City was smashed, and naturally he had to do his best to restore it, but these were not things he considered, and he had his own departments such as Dongguan and Jiangzuo to deal with it. After giving the order, Wu Chu ordered people to carry Wu Yizong's undisguised corpse, covered it with the Great Zhou Dragon Flag, and came to the imperial city by the Jiacheng Road.

After the empress heard that Wu Yizong was stabbed to death by Li Qianli, her heart was cold, and she immediately led the hundred officials to the tower of Zetianmen City, and when she saw Wu Yizong covered by the Great Zhou Dragon Banner with soldiers, she left tears. If she hadn't asked Wu Yizong to carry out the holy decree, Wu Yizong probably wouldn't have died like this.

Suddenly, the empress cried: "Yizong, it is my fault to die today!" ”

When the hundred officials saw the empress crying, they persuaded one after another: "Holy Lord, please mourn, the king of Hanoi was killed by the thieves, and His Royal Highness the King of Wei will definitely put down the rebellion." ”

The empress took the silk handkerchief handed by the palace maid, wiped away her tears, and said: "Add Wu Yizong as a special advance, the governor of Yangzhou, and allow his heirs to inherit the title." ”

At this time, Wu Chu was dressed in silver helmet and silver armor, holding a big iron spear, riding a flame horse, and came slowly, and a killing aura suddenly filled the entire imperial city, making the hearts of all the courtiers solemn, and the prime minister Su Wei said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Wei has come down!" ”

The empress had already seen Wu Zheng, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, if her child rebelled at this time, how would this palace defend herself, but then she smiled bitterly in her heart, her suspicion was too big. So he said: "Spread the King of Wei to meet you!" ”

The eunuchs raised their voices and shouted: "Spread the news that the king of Wei has come to see you!" ”

"Spread the King of Wei to meet you!"

Wu Chu originally came to see him, so he got off the horse, put the big iron gun on the horse's back, and then there was a sound of metal collision, he walked slowly, came to the gate of heaven, and bowed loudly: "The minister Wu Chu visited His Majesty, the minister has broken through the round wall city, but the thief Li Qianli has fled, the minister has laid a net of heaven and earth, and within ten days, Li Qianli will be caught!" ”

The empress felt at ease, and the courtiers had a smile on their faces, and the empress said, "My son has worked hard, and the matter of arresting the thieves will be handled by my son." ”

Wu Chu was stunned for a moment, and then bowed down and responded: "The son of the minister will not disappoint the saint when he receives the order!" ”

The empress nodded, and said, "My son works, so let's rest." ”

Wu Zheng bowed and saluted, and then retreated.

The empress turned sideways and asked the hundred officials, "What do you think Aiqing thinks King Wei has any shortcomings?" ”

Hundreds of officials were stunned, asking about people's strengths, always asking about their advantages, in order to promote their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, this empress is good, but she asks people's shortcomings! For a while, the hundred officials were speechless.

The empress turned sideways and saw Nayan Lou Shide, so she asked: "Lou Aiqing is an old minister, and she has been with King Wei in Hexi for a while, so she should have some understanding, what about Aiqing?" ”

Lou Shide and the empress have actually discussed it a few times in disguise, he is not a science official, but he has no special feelings for Li Tang, he can be promoted to prime minister, it is because the empress has taken a fancy to his talent, and Wu Chu also recommended it. As for the position of the emperor, Lou Shide is more interested in whether he can bring happiness to the people as an emperor, he can't see that Li Xian and Li Dan have the ability to do this, a trembling and trembling person who has lived far away from the court and the world for more than ten years, and a person who has a lustful voice every day, how can such a person become an emperor and become the master of Zhongxing in his heart?

In contrast, Wei Wang Wuzheng is different, he pacified the border troubles, rectified the local officials, and even made a great contribution in the court. Such a person is exactly what this empire needs, and it is the Ming Jun that he Lou Shide is willing to assist.

Lou Shide bowed and saluted, and said slowly: "The saint asked King Wei about his shortcomings, and the minister had one thing, and he didn't know whether to say it or not. ”

The empress smiled: "Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it. ”

Lou Shide said slowly: "When the minister was in Hexi, one morning, the minister and Murong Thorn Shi went to the Wei king's room to discuss the military situation, and after entering the house, they saw the king of Wei holding a large bowl of gruel, and eating a few steamed buns and pickled radishes. The minister and Murong Thorn thought it was delicious, and the King of Wei thought that his subordinates had never eaten, so he ordered someone to give the minister and Murong Thorn a copy of the history, and the ministers and Murong Thorn Shi did not refuse, and they wanted to try it, but the result was that the minister's food was tasteless and a little difficult to swallow, but since the minister started to eat, he ate it hard. The minister was thinking that His Royal Highness King Wei was in the army to share weal and sorrow with the sergeants, and he didn't care. Until he returned to Jingshi, in the palace of King Wei, he saw His Royal Highness's food again and it was still so simple. Weichen was moved, but also deeply worried. The King of Wei had a simple diet and was a model for us, but as the commander of an army, if the King of Wei became ill, where would he leave hundreds of thousands of soldiers? Therefore, the minister thought that the shortcoming of King Wei was that he did not care for his body too much. ”

The science officials also nodded one after another, King Wei's meal is indeed very simple, which is known to many people.

After listening to this, the empress also nodded, but she wondered in her heart, King Wei is not short of money, and there are a lot of rare things, not to mention that he has received a lot of rewards, even the rare treasures that he has given himself are also very many, which shows that he is not a stingy person, but why is the meal so simple?

With Lou Shide at the beginning, the rest of the officials also began to talk about the length of King Wei, so that the empress could understand the King of Wei she had never known from one side. (To be continued......)
