Chapter 179: He's Coming

Tianfeng is old, the phoenix soaring in the nine heavens is old, has lost all the colorful feathers on her body, and now she is not as good-looking as a pheasant.

Killing Li Xian's son, daughter and son-in-law was a stupid move, but after that, Wu Zetian actually handed over all the military affairs to Li Xian, Zhang Khan Zhi, Cui Xuan and others.

If Wu Zetian is determined to keep Da Zhou, then the most important thing she should do after killing Li Xian's children is to continue to suppress Li Tang's old ministers.

I believe that under her prestige, everyone will put away the careful thoughts in their hearts, and everyone will continue to crawl under her feet, as long as she does not die for a day, no one will dare to mention Li Tang's restoration.

But because of her recognition of the Mandate of Heaven, Wu Zetian regretted it, and it was precisely because of her remorse that she made such an idiotic move and put the power in the hands of Li Xian and Li Tang's old ministers.

The so-called Mandate of Heaven is actually the premonition in Wu Zetian's heart, don't look at her dying, don't look at her mediocre, but she knows very clearly that Li Tang's restoration is certain, she can't change it, and she can't change it.

It is not difficult to explain why after killing Li Xian's daughter and son, instead of going further, she took a big step back.

Since she can't change the world, she can only go with the flow.

But it was precisely because of this move that the Shenlong coup d'Γ©tat occurred, allowing Wu Zetian to witness the fall of Wu Zhou and the restoration of Li Tang when he was alive.

.......

After his son, daughter and son-in-law were killed by Wu Zetian, Li Xian once again exposed his cowardly nature, even if Wu Zetian later chose to hand over all the military and political power to him, but he still didn't dare to do anything, honestly handled state affairs every day, and became his prince.

Prime Minister Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan have long seen from the incident of Wu Zetian's killing of Li Chongrun (Li Xian's son) that there is no room for maneuver between Li Tang and Wu, and there must be a battle between the two sides, and there must be a defeat for both sides!

Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan planned to start in advance, and they chose a very dangerous path, mutiny!

If they can, they don't want to do it, they also want to wait for Wu Zetian to restore Li Tang in the open after his death, but time waits for no one, look at the good things that Wu Zetian's old witch has done, now she is seriously ill, but she is still so ruthless.

This time it was Li Chongrun and others who died, who knows if it will be himself who will die next time? Is there anything that old witch can't do?

In order to survive, in order to restore Li Tang as soon as possible, Prime Minister Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan decided to use force.

But at the critical moment, Li Xian refused, he actually did not agree to use force.

When asked him the reason, he didn't say anything, only said that the time had not come, and Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan, who had already prepared in private, were half angry because the time had not come.

But what can Li Xian do if he doesn't agree? He is the crown prince, if he doesn't agree, what can Zhang Khan Zhi, the prime minister? Could it be that he should use the banner of Prime Minister Wu Zhou to dispatch soldiers and horses to force the palace?

That's not a mutiny, it's a rebellion!

In desperation, Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan had to wait, only to wait for Li Xian to agree to seek great things, and at the same time, the two of them and Li Tang's old ministers still scolded Li Xian fiercely in their hearts, scolded him for his weakness, and scolded him for his timidity.

And Prime Minister Zhang Cambodia and Cui Xuan also felt disappointed in Li Xian because of this incident.

The prince is so cowardly, how can he achieve great things? I'm afraid that even if Datang is restored in the future, it will be chaotic for a while.

Alas, I have to say that if this person leaves a bad impression, then no matter what he does in the future, he will probably be associated with his first impression.

But this time, Li Xian was really wronged. It is true that he did not agree to mutiny now because he was afraid of Wu Zetian and his mother, but it was more because the timing was really wrong and ...... She also told me I can't do it now.

Although the queen mother is old, she is still Wu Zetian, she must wait, she must wait until she is sick and can't get out of bed!

What's more, now Wu Zetian has handed over all the government affairs to himself, and he doesn't care about anything, so during this time, he can accumulate strength while waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the moment when the queen mother really falls seriously ill.

Wouldn't it be better to wait until then to make a move? Why risk failure like you do now.

It seems that Li Xian has a master behind him to guide him, well, Wan'er, yes, it was Wan'er who helped him in the back and guided him in the back.

Wan'er seems to have successfully persuaded Li Xian, and the agreement between the two seems to have been reached, but no one can know what the exact agreement is.

As for why Wan'er helped Li Xian deal with Wu Zetian...... Quite simply, this is what Wu Zetian agreed.

Wu Zetian is already old and dying, and it is impossible for her to let Wan'er die with her, so before she dies, it is good to help Wan'er find a new backer.

You've helped me for more than ten years, and now, let me help you.

.......

In 705 AD, this year, Wu Zetian was seriously ill, and the Shenlong coup broke out in this year.

For two years, Li Xian waited for two years before choosing to do it, and then he chose to show his weak fangs to his mother, who had always been afraid of him, this was the first time in his life that he was brave, and it was also the only man in his life.

Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and tonight, the long knife is unsheathed.

Prince Li Xian led the prime minister Zhang Khan Zhi, Cui Xuan, about 500 soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army into the Imperial City of Luoyang, under the preparation of up to two years, Li Xian and they were almost not resisted, the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army in the imperial city chose to be silent about the mutiny, and 500 soldiers protected Li Xian all the way into Wu Zetian's bedroom.

At this time, Wu Zetian was already seriously ill, lying on the bed and unable to move, and the generals of the Imperial Forest Army killed the Zhang brothers in the dormitory.

Prime Minister Zhang Cambodia respectfully asked Wu Zetian to abdicate and passed on to the crown prince Li Xian.

Wu Zetian was helpless and gave way to Li Xian the next day.

Prime Minister Zhang Cambodia was overjoyed, first thanked Wu Zetian for his tolerance, and then immediately ordered the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army to search for the remnants of the Wu clan, and strive to wipe out all the Wu courtiers.

Especially Wu Sansi and Shangguan Wan'er, these two must be eliminated as soon as possible, they are both the most hateful and hateful existences in the Wu Clan!

This is normal, very normal, the so-called cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, is what everyone should do.

But at this time, Li Xian, who had been standing aside and watching everything silently, suddenly spoke, "This move must not be." ”

Zhang Cambodia was stunned when he heard this, and asked why?

Li Xian didn't tell him, but he didn't allow him to kill Wu Sansi, and at the same time, the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who went to the harem to search for Shangguan Wan'er all shouted back in an extremely tough tone.

Since Wu Sansi's son married Li Xian's daughter, the two families have become a family, and over the years, Li Xian has also been helped by Wu Sansi, so of course he will not allow Zhang Cambodia to take people to kill Wu Sansi.

And Shangguan Wan'er ...... That's even worse, this is his future appearance, how could he allow others to kill her.

......

Wan'er's dormitory.

On the night of the Shenlong coup, panicked footsteps and screams sounded outside the hall, but the hall was quiet.

Wan'er is still sitting in front of her bookcase, drawing silently.

On this day, she had already guessed that she had been waiting for a long time for the arrival of this day.

Wu Zhou is over, Li Tang is revived, providence, this is providence.

Everything was as Wan'er expected, Li Xian led people into the imperial city, most of the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army chose to obey, only a small number of Wu diehards chose to resist to the death, and the shouts of killing outside the hall were also heard by that small group of people.

The shouts outside the hall could not disturb the girl who was serious about painting, and perhaps she could no longer call Wan'er by the word girl, because she was already in her thirties, and she was already a woman in her thirties.

However, her appearance has not changed, she is still as beautiful and young as she was more than ten years ago, so she is still a girl.

The brush slid lightly over the paper, leaving a vague piece of text, which Wan'er pondered in her mind as she wrote.

I guess Your Majesty has been forced to pass on the throne now, right? I guess that the Zhang brothers and her playthings should have been awarded, right?

After writing the words on the painting, Wan'er put down the brush, and a faint smile and relief crawled over her beautiful and bewildering face.

Tomorrow, he should be able to reascend the throne, and Datang should also be revived tomorrow, and everything will change back to its original appearance, yes, it's good to get back on track.

It's just that she pity Your Majesty, she still can't change the world after all, and she still loses to the will of God after all.

After sighing Wu Zetian, Wan'er cast her eyes to the front, the young man guarding the gate with a sword.

Looking at the man's tall back and the domestic servant beside him, Wan'er's heart moved, and her eyes became strange and gentle.

She counted everything, she guessed everything, and everything that happened tonight was what she expected.

But he is the only thing she didn't calculate tonight, and he can also be regarded as the only variable tonight.

Wan'er didn't expect that on this night that was destined to go down in history, and on a night when many people close to the Wu clan were destined to be washed in blood, someone would actually come to her dormitory with just one domestic servant....... Protect yourself.

Protect yourself...... Protect me, it's stupid, you're going to protect me.

Hehe, he still hasn't grown up, he's still so stupid, and he's still so young and immature.

Is he so unconfident in me? Did he think I was going to die tonight?

No, it's impossible, I'll die, but not now.

But you do it....... What is it for, aren't you afraid that all your years of hard work will be wiped out because of tonight?

Is it worth it? Is it really worth it?

"Your Highness, Your Highness, will it be fine? If something happens in a while, the slave stops them, and you take Miss Wan'er first. The voice of a young man trembling with a little fear rang out in the quiet hall.

There was a lot of panic outside the hall, but it was quiet inside the hall.

In the entire hall, including Wan'er, there are only three people in total.

He was a tall, but beardless servant, whose voice was not as strong as that of a grown man, but rather sharp, and he held a strong bow and a pot of feathered arrows in his hand.

At this moment, the young man whom he called His Highness, holding a long sword, turned around impressively, revealing a handsome and unusually handsome face with a knife and axe.

"Fart, how could I, Li Longji, leave you to live alone!"

"Yuan Yi, tell the soldiers outside the hall to be in good spirits, if anyone dares to get close to here tonight, they will be killed! If anyone blames it in the future, it will all be carried by me Li Sanlang! ”
