At the reception banquet held by Wu Sansi for Wu Yanxiu, Li Hongtai openly claimed that Zhang Changzong had the appearance of the Son of Heaven, but in the face of the disapproving laughter of Wu Sansi and others, Zhang Changzong, who had never been politically conscious, did not raise the slightest vigilance.

After he returned to the palace, he did not mention this matter to anyone, and there were no henchmen of the Erzhang faction who went to the banquet of Wu Sansi that day, so that no one mentioned this matter after more than ten days. On the third day of Zhang Changzong's banquet, Li Daochang left Chang'an, packed up and went to Kunlun Mountain to visit a few Taoist friends.

Yang Fan created an opportunity, but he would not let his people charge, he knew that since he had already given people a chance, there would definitely be people who couldn't help but jump out.

Prime Minister Yao Chong's house.

Since Wei Yuanzhong was demoted to Lingnan, Yao Chong has become the natural leader of these loyal ministers and righteous people. Yao Chong, who frequently showed favor in front of the two and seemed to have bowed his head softly, sat on the top with a cold face, followed by Song Jing in the imperial history, Cui Xuanhui, the squire of the Fengge, Huan Yanfan, the Shaoqing of the Punishment, the Dali Chengfeng Quanzhen, and the ministers such as Ma Huaisu, the superintendent of the imperial history.

Yao Chong looked around at the crowd, his expression was cold, and his sonorous voice echoed in everyone's ears: "Since the crown prince has been established, the Wu clan is not to worry.

Last time, we were very well prepared, but the Son of Heaven still covered up such serious crimes as selling official positions and perverting the law for bribes. Now Zhang Changzong is arrogant, and he openly accepts the compliment of the 'Son of Heaven' in front of others, which is undoubtedly a rebellion. This time, we must do whatever it takes to bring them to justice! ”

The criminal Shaoqing Huan Yanfan said angrily: "Zhang Changzong was complimented by others and had the appearance of a son of heaven, but he accepted it calmly. This is not a subordinate. And Liang Wangwu Sansi was at the banquet at that time, what he heard and saw with his own eyes, and now it has been half a month, but he has not reacted to this matter! ”

Cui Xuanhui, the squire of the Feng Pavilion, said angrily: "Wu Sansi has no reason to be on the throne, although he is hostile to Erzhang, but he knows that my loyal ministers will make moves, so he naturally will not be this bird!" ”

Song Jing clenched his fists and said sharply: "If he doesn't do it, I'll do it, this time there is no advance or retreat." Death only! ”

On the second day of the discussion, Yang Yuansi, a scholar from Xuzhou, posted notices on Tongqu Street and in the bustling downtown area, accusing Zhang Changzong of rebellion, and was captured in public by Wu Yizong, the general of Jin Wuwei, who led troops to patrol the streets, and was interrogated. It was learned that this person was still related to the royal family.

It turned out that this Yang Yuansi was the grandson of Li Xu, the king of Dongping. Li Xu, the king of Dongping, was the grandson of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and the eldest son of Li Shen, the king of Ji. Li Shen had seven sons. Among them, Li Xu and Li Xiu are the most outstanding. Wu Zetian wantonly slaughtered the Li Tang clan before ascending the throne and becoming emperor. Li Xu's house was also killed by Wu Zetian.

Yang Yuansi was not a direct descendant of the Li family of the Dongping Wang's house, and he was also a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family, and he was in the same family as Wu Zetian's mother, so he survived. As soon as he learned of Yang Yuanhei's identity, Wu Yizong immediately used the special identity of the accuser and the identity of the accused person as special. The prisoners and the seized unveiled stickers were transferred to the Imperial Historical Tower.

When Yushitai received this case, he immediately tried it as quickly as possible, and after getting Yang Yuansi's confession, he immediately formed a concerto. Printed by Song Jing in the imperial history, reported to Shangshu Province, Shangshu Province to seal, and reported to Menxia Province, Menxia Province to seal and send to the political desk, Prime Minister Yao Chong was sitting in the palace today, and immediately attached his name to Shangguan Wan'er when he saw the chapter.

From Yang Yuansi posting notices on the streets of Chang'an, preaching Zhang Changzong's great rebellion, to Shangguan Wan'er appearing in front of Wu Zetian with this recital, Jin Wuwei, Yushitai, Shangshu Province, Menxia Province, and Political Affairs Platform passed through the middle, but the whole process only took half a day.

During this period, these yamen included Jin Wuwei, which was controlled by the Wu family, Yushitai, who was loyal to the crown prince, Shangshu Province, which was a vassal minister, Menxia Province, which was controlled by Princess Taiping, and Shangguan Wan'er, who was subordinate to the family Xianzong.

It seems that all the factions are waiting for someone to launch, just like a group of hunters, holding sharp blades and staring closely at a tiger that is ready to choose someone to devour at any time, no one dares to launch first, nor does they dare to exchange heads, but they know better that they must not turn their backs to the tiger at this time, so they can only stalemate like this.

Hold on until one of the hunters couldn't help but roar and pounce first, and all the hunters moved at the same time, some stabbed it in the heart, some chopped its hands and feet, and some slashed its head, and they cooperated very tacitly, because they all wanted to kill the tiger.

Wu Zetian listened to Shangguan Wan'er read half of it, and was about to pass the recital, squinting her presbyopia and looking at it with difficulty, after she finished reading the recital, she sat there quietly, without saying a word, and without any change in expression, even Shangguan Wan'er, who had followed her for many years, couldn't guess what she was thinking.

Wu Zetian was silent for a long time, gently shook the music in his hand, and said in a low voice: "The crowd is full of emotions......"

Wan'er's heart tightened, and the corners of Wu Zetian's mouth showed a trace of undisguised ridicule at this time: "Wan'er, this public case is already known to the whole dynasty, right?" ”

Wan'er didn't speak, she knew that Wu Zetian was knowingly asking, how could this piece of music be submitted to the front of the emperor in a public way, how could it not be known to everyone, and the vermilion seals one after another under the chapter had already explained this.

Wu Zetian closed his eyes and said tiredly: "You go, Chuan Liulang comes to see me." ”

Zhang Changzong was very surprised when he heard that the Son of Heaven was summoned in Fengchen Prison, and he had always taken the initiative to meet the Son of Heaven, because he went to meet the Son of Heaven every day to greet him, even if Wu Zetian wanted to keep him by his side one day, he would explain in advance that it was unprecedented to suddenly take the initiative to meet.

Zhang Changzong followed Shangguan Wan'er to leave Fengchen Prison, and when he walked on the road, he asked quietly: "To be controlled, the saint is summoned, but is there anything urgent?" ”

Wan'er quickly glanced at the attendants who accompanied her in front and behind, and said in a low voice: "There is a troublesome matter, which is very unfavorable to you Liulang, and Liulang must prepare early." ”

Wan'er knew that as soon as Zhang Changzong arrived in front of the palace, she would immediately understand what was going on, and it was useless to cover it up now, and it was not yet certain that the evidence of the crime this time would definitely be able to bring down Erzhang, and Erzhang would not be able to find out her true position, so this good thing still had to be sold to Zhang Changzong.

When Zhang Changzong heard this, he was worried in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's the trouble?" ”

Wan'er said in a low voice: "Someone sued Liulang for rebellion!" ”

When Zhang Changzong heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhang Changzong was taken to the Hall of Eternal Life, and Wu Zetian was sitting in his familiar position, and there were still four men, four women, and eight palace attendants standing on both sides of the curtain behind him, all of which were exactly the same as when he usually saw him, but Zhang Changzong always had a gloomy feeling.

Zhang Changzong walked in front of Wu Zetian and bowed his head in fear: "Sage." ”

Wu Zetian stared at him and asked slowly, "Impeachment of you." Is it true? ”

Zhang Changzong naturally didn't dare to show that he already knew, he raised his head blankly, looked at Wu Zetian in confusion, and said, "What is the saint talking about?" ”

Wu Zetian said in a low voice: "The Yushitai is sparse, and the book and the door are sealed." The prime minister attached to the confession, saying that Yang Yuanhei, a native of Xuzhou, had changed. Rokuro. Sue you for rebellion! ”

"Sage Mingjian. How dare the minister rebel, how can he rebel? ”

Zhang Changzong's legs were weak, he knelt in front of Wu Zetian, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and he said sadly and angrily: "The minister is loyal to the saint, and he has never betrayed at all. Hundreds of officials are jealous of Weichen. Therefore, the slander continues, and the saints are asked to be aware of it. ”

Wu Zetian sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Yang Yuanhei has changed, but there is real evidence. I've seen the recital, and I'm sure the Imperial Observatory wouldn't be so ridiculous anyway, deceiving me with something that could be revealed with just one check. ”

Zhang Changzong said blankly: "Impossible! The minister has no rebellious heart, how can he have done anything rebellious, evidence, what evidence can Yushitai have? ”

Wu Zetian asked slowly: "Can you claim to be the Son of Heaven?" ”

Zhang Changzong was stunned, and Wu Zetian said: "In the imperial history, Cheng Song Jing said in the chapter that this matter is evidenced by many powerful people in the court, and there was a warlock Li Hongtai who said in public, saying that you have the appearance of the Son of Heaven, and you accept it calmly, and you also allow him to be the teacher of the country, I came to ask you, is there such a thing?" ”

"Ah...... Ah......h

Zhang Changzong blinked, his white face was swollen red, and he suddenly realized: "The minister understands!" This is them framing Weichen, bixia, this is their gang up to frame Weichen! ”

Wu Zetian stared at him and said, "Didn't you say such a thing, huh?" ”

"The minister said, no! The minister didn't say it! No, ......"

Zhang Changzong was anxious and incoherent, he tried to calm down his mood, and then said: "Sage, this Li Hongtai is indeed a person, he is proficient in physiognomy, and he can also use some techniques. Because he claims to be able to know good and bad, and avoid evil, so the minister is also very polite to him.

A few days ago, King Liang held a banquet for Wu Yanxiu's return to the country, and the minister was invited to the banquet, so he brought this Li Hongtai with him. At the banquet, someone invited Li Daoren to meet, and occasionally mentioned the face of Weichen, Li Hongtai said that the minister had the appearance of the Son of Heaven, and the hall was full of laughter, everyone thought it was a joke, and Weichen also felt ridiculous, so he joked, saying that if I were the Son of Heaven, he would be the national teacher of this dynasty. That's the way it is, sage. ”

"What about Li Hongtai?"

"Li Hongtai? He...... I went to Kunlun to visit the road. Yes! ”

Zhang Changzong suddenly slapped his forehead and said hurriedly: "Why is it so coincidental, could it be ...... This Li Hongtai is also their person? ”

Wu Zetian stared at him, and for some reason, she believed what Zhang Changzong said. She not only believed what Zhang Changzong said, but also believed that Zhang Changzong was framed by others, Wu Zetian's heart couldn't help but rise a little pity, she slowed down her voice and said softly: "Liulang, you have been in the court for so long, don't you still understand what to do, what not to do, what to say, what not to say?" ”

Zhang Changzong was still at a loss: "Sage, this is just a joke, then Li Hongtai is just flattering, everyone who hears it is laughing, and they all know that this is a joke." This...... Is this a crime of rebellion? ”

Wu Zetian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a faint hint of ridicule: "Yes, according to the law of the country, you have committed the crime of rebellion!" ”

P: In the early hours of the morning, I sincerely ask for monthly tickets and recommended tickets!.
