Chapter 36: Wu Zetian's Decision
Wu Zetian was in the palace, Wu Zetian was lying on a soft couch, his face was like gold paper, there was no trace of blood, and his breathing was weak.
The Imperial Physician was busy with the treatment.
Li Xian, Li Dan, Li Longji, Princess Taiping, Di Renjie, Zhang Cambodia, Wu Sansi, Wu Chengsi, Shangguan Wan'er, these sons and grandsons, and ministers stood in front of the couch, all with solemn faces.
Princess Taiping's assassination was a very heavy blow to Wu Zetian, and she was too old to come up in one breath, and it was possible, so they couldn't worry.
After a long while, the Imperial Doctor finally stopped, and Li Dan hurriedly asked, "Imperial Doctor, how is it?" ”
"Angry and angry, don't make Your Majesty angry again." The imperial doctor shook his head, with a look of regret, and said: "Although Your Majesty is old, but his body and bones are not bad, after this incident, it is difficult to say whether there will be any changes." ”
Shaking his head, he packed up his things and walked away quickly.
Li Dan, Li Xian, you look at me, I look at you, with a helpless face.
Princess Taiping's assassination is too big, the government and the opposition are concerned, and they must give an explanation, otherwise, it will be difficult to settle the matter. But Wu Zetian fell ill at this time, and this matter is really tricky.
"San Lang, don't mention this matter, just treat it as if you never gave birth." Li Dan thought about it and said to Li Longji.
"Eighth." Li Xian choked up, grabbed Li Dan's hand, trembled with excitement, and said vigorously: "Eighth child, you really have filial piety, much better than being a brother, I don't want this prince position anyway." ”
"Seventh brother, don't say that, the crown prince is young and orderly, and you should be in charge, and I won't fight for it." Li Dan was determined to give up the crown prince. Otherwise. And so on and forth. Don't make Wu Zetian angry to death.
Princess Taiping's eyes lit up, and she was gloomy.
"King Chu, you see this." Di Renjie's eyes widened and he looked at Li Longji.
Zhang Cambodia and the others also stared at Li Longji with round eyes. How to end the assassination matter depends on Li Longji's attitude, otherwise everything will be useless, who can tell Li Longji to influence the situation?
"I can treat this as if I never gave birth to it. But. I don't want to have a next time. Li Longji took a look at Wu Zetian and knew that if he really wanted to investigate this matter, he would want Wu Zetian's old life.
For Wu Zetian, Li Longji admires Wu Zetian, who is worthy of the only empress in Chinese history, with extraordinary intelligence and decision-making that is very human. Moreover, Wu Zetian treats him very well and treats him as a baby, and Li Longji also approves of this grandmother. I don't want her to be finished.
"King Xie Chu!" Di Renjie and Zhang Cambodia saluted together, and their bodies bowed ninety degrees. Extremely respectful.
Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi took a long breath, secretly thinking that they had finally escaped. If they are investigated, they are the accomplices of Princess Taiping, and they have a mortal enmity with Li Longji, and they will shed their skin if they don't die, and they are likely to be finished.
"San Lang understands righteousness and filial piety, not bad, not bad." Li Xian and Li Dan glanced at each other and were greatly pleased.
"I don't want anything like that to happen again, though." Immediately afterwards, Li Longji's face turned cold, and he said murderously: "I put my ugly words here, if there is another similar thing, don't blame me for being ruthless!" No matter who it is, if they dare to target my father and son again, I will kill them all! ”
His voice is not high, but it is murderous and palpitating.
No one dared to think that he was joking.
Wu Zetian's illness was not light, and it took ten days to get better.
"Come, I'm going to the Buddha Hall." Whenever there is something to worry about, Wu Zetian has to go to the Buddhist hall to meditate, this time the matter is bigger, and he has to go.
Jia Ming hurriedly sent someone to carry Wu Zetian to the Buddhist hall.
When he came to the Buddha hall, Hui Wei hurriedly came to greet him and said, "I have seen His Majesty." ”
"Excuse me." Wu Zetian's face was pale, and he was weak to speak.
This serious illness made Wu Zetian lose a lot of weight, and her originally black head turned white all of a sudden, which shows how hard this matter hit her.
Hui Wei invited Wu Zetian into the Buddhist hall and sat down, stared at Wu Zetian, and sighed: "Your Majesty xià ......"
He and Wu Zetian have a good personal relationship, the two can be said to be forgetful friends, and they have reached the point where they have nothing to say, Wu Zetian has changed so much that Hui Wei is very distressed.
"Master, you must already know about it, you say, what should I do?" Wu Zetian stared at Hui Wei.
"Hey! Your Majesty, this thing is really difficult. Hui Wei sighed and said: "On one side is a daughter, and on the other hand, it is a parent, whether it is disposed of or not, it is sad." ”
One sentence made Wu Zetian sigh: "Hey! Why is it so hard for me to do? Why is the heavens so distressed? ”
It is his daughter who wants to assassinate his son, if he is not investigated, it will be an injustice to Li Dan. If it is pursued, how can it be determined? Yes, whether to dispose of it or not to dispose of it made it difficult for Wu Zetian.
Anyone with this situation will be difficult to deal with. Even if the killing decision is far from Wu Zetian, who is comparable to ordinary people, it is no exception.
"Master, do you have a plan?" Wu Zetian asked again.
Hui Wei shook his head and said: "It's difficult, it's difficult, to say something rebellious, even if Taizong is underground, he will be helpless." ”
Tang Taizong is the emperor of Niu Shining, and even Wu Zetian admires it, and he thinks it is true: "That's right." ”
After a pause, he said, "What kind of sin did I create, flesh and blood cannibalism." ”
"Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself, the poor monk heard that the king of Luling and the imperial heir have given up the crown prince, this is much easier." A reminder.
"The old seven and eight have filial piety, and I am afraid that I will have three longs and two shorts, so I have to give up." Wu Zetian's eyes were as wise as a torch, and he saw through Li Xian and Li Dan's intentions at a glance: "The more this is the case, the more I have to deal with it, otherwise, I will be ashamed of the eighth." ”
Li Dan's filial piety does not need to be doubted, Wu Zetian has a deep understanding, Li Dan in order not to make Wu Zetian sad, would rather not fight for the crown prince, would rather not investigate the responsibility of Princess Taiping, this filial piety is greater than the sky, it is the most affectionate and filial piety.
The more Li Dan is like this, the more it makes Wu Zetian feel guilty, if he doesn't hold Princess Taiping accountable, he feels sorry for Li Dan.
"Although what His Majesty said is reasonable, is His Majesty really ruthless?" Hui Wei asked something that others didn't dare to ask.
Wu Zetian's eyes were like swords, and he glared at Hui Wei fiercely. Nodding his head, he said, "Only the master dares to say this." Even the elders of the country dare not say it. The master asked a big question. I don't know, let's take it one step at a time. ”
Princess Taiping's Wu Zetian loves the world, which is Wu Zetian's heart's top meat, and it is not easier to ask Wu Zetian to hold Princess Taiping accountable. Wu Zetian wanted to deal with Princess Taiping very much, but she asked herself, and she didn't know if she could be ruthless.
The two talked for a while, and Wu Zetian was a little sleepy. Wu Zetian then returned to the dormitory to rest.
Three days later, Wu Zetian's spirit was slightly better, but he sighed and his face was ugly.
It happened that Jia Ming was waiting by his side, and Wu Zetian asked: "Jia Ming, you have been following me for a long time, and you are one of the few old people around me, how should I deal with this matter?" ”
Jia Ming was stunned, he never expected that Wu Zetian would ask him. Busy said: "Your Majesty, Jia Ming doesn't know." ”
"What do you mean?" Wu Zetian's face was cold.
"With the wisdom of His Majesty. It's hard to decide, and Jia Ming is even more out of line. Jia Ming hurriedly explained.
Wu Zetian was a clear-eyed person, and said: "I know that you have always been friendly with the imperial heir, are you towards the imperial heir, do you say?" Say what you want to say, and I won't blame you. ”
"The imperial heir was taken care of by Jia Ming when he was a child, and Jia Ming had no children and no daughters, so he invisibly regarded the imperial heir as a son and nephew, and asked His Majesty to forgive Jia Ming for the crime of Gao Pan." Jia Ming said busily.
"It's human nature, and I won't blame you." Wu Zetian nodded, there was no lack of appreciation, and said: "I appreciate you for this, so I keep you by my side and reuse you." ”
"Thank you." Jia Ming thought for a while and said, "This thing is too difficult to do. If it is not investigated, it will be unfair to the emperor's heir; If you pursue it, your majesty will be distressed and difficult to make a decision. ”
"Hey!" Wu Zetian sighed and said, "Jia Ming, you're so right. However, this matter must be dealt with. If you don't deal with it, how can you explain it to the world? ”
The story of the assassination has already spread, and if it is not dealt with, it will not be possible to explain it to the world, and it will not be possible to stop the mouth.
"Then what is going to be done with Your Majesty?" Jia Ming asked.
"Pass on the peace." Wu Zetian looked up to the sky and stayed for a long time.
Jia Ming received the order and immediately went to pass on the order.
"Taiping, Taiping, you disappointed my mother too much." Wu Zetian's face was unbearable, and tears rolled in his eyes.
It didn't take long for Princess Taiping to come, and she hurriedly greeted Wu Zetian and said, "I've seen Your Majesty." ”
After seeing the ceremony, Princess Taiping stood trembling and frightened, very frightened.
Wu Zetian's decision to kill is far from ordinary people, it is very terrifying, once she is held responsible, Princess Taiping will not end well.
"Taiping, come, come and sit. Sit down next to my mother. The imaginary Wu Zetian's anger did not happen, I saw Wu Zetian with a smile on his face, very kind, he moved a low table with his own hands, put it beside him, and patted it on the low table.
"This ......" Princess Taiping was stunned, not knowing which Wu Zetian was singing.
"Come here, sit down." Wu Zetian commanded, and Princess Taiping had to go over and sit next to Wu Zetian.
"Taiping, let's talk to each other." Wu Zetian looked at Princess Taiping, his face was full of love, and said: "Mother remembers that you were very cute and smart when you were a child, and you always find ways to make your mother happy. And your father, you can also please him. We love you very much. ”
Wu Zetian chattered, talking about Princess Taiping's childhood, Princess Taiping had a look of admiration on her face, her head rested on Wu Zetian's shoulder, her hands were wrapped, and she hugged Wu Zetian's neck, looking coquettish.
"What a good daughter." Wu Zetian saw it in his eyes, a little stupid, and tears rolled around in his eyes.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Princess Taiping wiped her tears for Wu Zetian and asked puzzled.
"It's fine." Wu Zetian tried his best to suppress his tears, stroked Princess Taiping's face, and looked left and right, as if he couldn't see enough in his life.
Princess Taiping didn't understand.
"Taiping, you go down." After a while, Wu Zetian's voice trembled a little.
"Yes." Princess Taiping was excited, her body trembled, and she left after giving a salute, turning back in three steps, reluctant to give up.
"Whew." Until she got out of Wu Zetian's bedroom, Princess Taiping stumbled and almost fell to the ground, turned around, looked at Wu Zetian's bedroom, her voice trembled, and said: "Mother, you are really ruthless!" (To be continued!)
