Chapter 73 Wu Zetian's Secret

"Say no more! None of you can doubt it, but you must not doubt Your Majesty! And you Di Renjie, you have been with Your Majesty for many years, and you actually suspect her? Mulan roared.

"Mulan, calm down, it's not convenient to talk here, let's find a place to sit down and make it clear......" Di Renjie said with a look in his eyes after meeting everyone.

"Yuanfang, you are optimistic about the people here......" Di Renjie said to Li Yuanfang beside him.

"Yes, sir!" Li Yuanfang said.

"Xuan Ce, let's stay here with Yuan Fang, and wait for the captain to come back...... Baili Shouyue said softly.

"Ah, brother! Xuan Ce also wants to go, why do they adults always like to whisper! Baili Xuance puffed up his little face and said coquettishly.

"Xuan Ce is good, my brother will make you something to eat tonight!" Baili Shouyu gently coaxed Baili Xuance to say.

"Yes, yes! Brother is the best! When Baili Xuance heard it, he immediately agreed without thinking about it.

Then everyone in the Great Wall team waved their hands to Baili Shouyu, and followed Di Renjie's steps to his own residence. This is a relatively simple yamen, and the tall door number hangs on this gate, which is written "Di Yamen".

"I'm a humble place, because I like to be pure, so I don't have any servants in charge, so don't dislike it." Saying these words, Di Renjie sat down and picked up a blue and white teacup and some tea leaves, and began to brew tea.

But none of the guards of the Great Wall sat down, and everyone's expressions were extremely heavy.

"Sit down...... Di Renjie sighed, and then drank the tea in his hand.

Then the guards finally sat down......

"I'm sorry, Huaiying. I was impulsive just now, but I really don't believe that Your Majesty will be the culprit for the destruction of Chang'an City......" Mulan clenched her fists, her eyes full of determination.

"That's right, the captain and I were the first to become the Great Wall Guards, and we have been following Your Majesty for many years, and she is by no means that kind of person......" Su Lie said equally firmly.

"To be honest, I didn't expect that Lord Di, as His Majesty's confidant for many years, would be on my side. Actually, this is just my speculation, and I am not 100% sure that His Majesty is the culprit of this disaster......" Kai explained.

"I don't want to prove Your Majesty's innocence, but at this point, it would be unconvincing to say that she had nothing to do with this disaster......," Di Renjie closed his eyes and said slowly while sipping tea.

"Master Di seems to know a lot about His Majesty......" Luna said subconsciously.

"Indeed, there are some things, not to mention you, even Mulan, who you don't know at all. But now I have to say it, so that you will know why I believe General Kai's words......" Di Renjie finished speaking, then sniffed the tea in his hand again, and then covered the teacup with the lid.

"Huaiying, you ......" Mulan suddenly stopped talking.

At this moment, Di Renjie suddenly threw out his teacup, and everyone first showed a little surprise.

In this flash of light, the fast-reacting armor had already caught the entire teacup smoothly with one hand, without spilling a single drop of tea.

"Awesome! General Kai is really skilled! Di Renjie clapped his palms and praised.

"What is Lord Di's move?" The armor was puzzled, and then handed the teacup back to Di Renjie.

And Di Renjie took the teacup again, and began to talk about the past in detail: "This teacup has a peony pattern, which can only be carved with extremely precious blue and white porcelain, and this is the first reward that His Majesty gave me that year......"

"A long time ago, when Her Majesty was still fourteen years old, she was already a powerful and beautiful young mage, but unfortunately she was contributed to the court of the Tang Dynasty by a flattering magistrate. And because of the experience of the Empress Dowager of Great Qin Miyue, her beauty and destructive powerful mana aroused the vigilance of the Tang royal family and imprisoned her in the monastery. But while she was imprisoned in the monastery, an old man appeared and approached her......" Di Renjie said.

"Could this old man be the Ancient Wizard?" Mulan was surprised.

Di Renjie nodded, and then continued: "The Ancient Demon Leader Jiang Ziya personally taught her rich knowledge and the spells of the Ancient Demon Dao, prompting her to become more and more powerful. After the first emperor ascended the throne, during a sacrifice, the first emperor fell in love with this powerful and beautiful female mage at first sight, and named her a concubine. It was then that I became acquainted with His Majesty, who was still a concubine at the time, and she appreciated my talent and used me for her very much. With my help, she was able to climb to the throne almost unimpeded, and finally climbed to the throne step by step......"

"In this way, Lord Di and His Majesty have known each other for at least ten or even twenty years!" Luna exclaimed.

"But even so, you still don't believe Your Majesty! You still know that Your Majesty has always reused you, but now you are suspicious of her! Su Lie said angrily.

Suddenly, Di Renjie's eyes began to become more and more aggressive, and his voice was unusually cold:

"Because I've been with her for years! I know what kind of person she is, when she personally sealed her mentor Taigu Magic! Although later, the primeval wizard successfully broke the seal on its own. On the surface, His Majesty seems to have deeply reflected, but is this really the case?

After the death of the first emperor, except for the exiled prince Li Qianqiu, the other heirs can be said to either die of undue death or die of sudden illness! Since ancient times, the emperor and the royal family have been the most affectionate, in order to climb to the throne, not to mention that she is not biological, she can even kiss! Hand! Kill! Death of your own daughter!

I know best for so many years, but now during her reign, Datang has indeed ushered in the greatest prosperity in history, so I will always be willing to assist her, but it does not mean that I am willing to give her 100% trust, and she is now very likely to be the culprit who almost destroyed our hometown......" Di Renjie said this, and closed his eyes in pain.

……

At the same time, in the royal tombs......

The grandeur here is comparable to the Tang Dynasty Palace, the whole mausoleum is golden, like the palace city is square, the middle is the nine-square grid, the emperor's tomb is in the center, and the underground palace is under the soil, and the scale is huge.

There are two city walls inside and outside the mausoleum, four city gates, there is the Vermilion Bird Gate in the south, the Xuanwu Gate in the north, the Qinglong Gate in the east, the White Tiger Gate in the west, and a dedicated hall tower, and Wu Zetian and others came to the Vermilion Bird Gate.

"You all retreat first...... Wu Zetian said to the attendants beside him.

"Yes." When the attendants had finished speaking, they all departed.

Wu Zetian sighed lightly, and gently pressed the mechanism located at the bottom right of the Vermilion Bird Gate, and then the door was opened.

She walked slowly to the door, and when she looked inside, it was the interior of the mausoleum, and in front of it were hundreds of golden steps leading to the central tombstone. Around this central tombstone, there are also seventeen small funerary tombs. After a while, Wu Zetian finally walked to the black tombstone in the center, and the golden text on this tombstone reads Tang Gaozong's mausoleum!

"Pheasant slave, Mei Niang has come to see you......" Wu Zetian stretched out his hand and stroked the tombstone, his eyes were full of tenderness and longing.

"It's really happened too much recently, and before I knew it, I hadn't come to see you for a long time, would you be angry with Mei Niang?" Wu Zetian touched the tombstone and smiled bitterly.

"In the past, whenever you were there, you trusted Mei Niang without hesitation, and you would always think about Mei Niang. I never cared about the rumors that the ministers said that I was in trouble, that I wanted to usurp power, or that I had strangled our daughter Anding with my own hands. Because you have always been on my side and protected me as best you can. So no matter what, I will definitely do my best to defend your country......"

The next moment, she waved her hand and conjured a colorful fragment out of thin air, if Armor and Luna saw this fragment, they would definitely be surprised, this was the 'miracle fragment' that gave them the ancestral bloodline, the extremely powerful power of the demonic path, and the corresponding terrible curse!

Wu Zetian stared at this fragment with her eyes, and suddenly a little fear flashed in her eyes, and she broke out in a cold sweat, and said to herself sadly: "The miracle fragment will devour people's hearts, until it finally becomes a demonic existence in the world." After the gate of the central drive was opened last night, Chang'an City would not have completely collapsed.

At that time, there was only a slight crack in the ground near the central gate, and when I arrived, I had a terrible thought uncontrollably. If I can take this opportunity to kill all the ministers who oppose me, then there will be no one in the whole world who opposes me! At that time, it was as if there was a powerful evil thought driving me, and when I came to my senses, I had already injected a large amount of mana into this cracking fluctuation, causing the disaster last night, and I killed so many people of the Tang Dynasty......" Speaking of this, there was already a trace of tears in her eyes.

"I really underestimated the extent to which this miracle fragment affected my heart, causing me to do something that I will regret for the rest of my life, pheasant slave, you must be very angry with me, right? Oh, yes! Even I can't forgive myself, even if it's something I can't control for a while, it's a big mistake I made......"

Suddenly, Wu Zetian looked at his hands and said, "In order to stabilize the country, I have killed many people, and these hands have long been stained with blood. But I never thought of killing my own people, and I was really afraid that one day I would become the heinous poisonous woman that the ministers used to call them, such a monster in human skin, a girl you will never know again......

But now I have to use the power of the Miracle Fragment to resist the Eye of Annihilation, and I must use its power to protect Datang! There are so many sins in this life that I will spend the rest of my life atoning for them, and I will try to suppress this terrible evil thought. ”

"Pheasant slave, you believe Mei Niang can do it, right?" She raised her hand again to touch Li Zhi's tombstone, and a trace of tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.

"Since the first day I ascended the throne, I have never cried in front of people, and only in front of you can I be the real Mei Niang...... Wu Zetian said gently.

But at the last moment, the colorful fragment in her hand flashed with a faint light, and suddenly she faintly revealed a strange smile, and her body bloomed with an unprecedented, extremely powerful magical aura......

……

On the other side, Di Yamen ......

Everyone was already dumbfounded when they heard Di Renjie say this, and Luna subconsciously covered her mouth.

Su Lie said incredulously:

"Your Majesty killed his own daughter with his own hands? How can it be?! I still remember that this incident was so popular that it had even spread to the Great Wall. At that time, the first emperor Tang Gaozong Li Zhi was still in power, and His Majesty, who was still a concubine at that time, and the first emperor had a lovely daughter, named Princess Anding.

But unfortunately, Princess Anding, who was not yet one year old, died suddenly, and it is said that it was done by the queen of the year, and then she was deposed as a concubine by the angry emperor himself. After that, rumors began to spread in the palace that His Majesty did not hesitate to kill his daughter with his own hands in order to ascend to the throne and blame the queen and queen. But I've always been unconvinced, what parent in the world would kill their own flesh and blood with their own hands?! Di Renjie, do you even believe such rumors? How wise have you always been?! ”

And Di Renjie regained his calm look, and tasted the tea ceremony in his hand again:

"It's not a question of believing or not believing, if she doesn't have any ambition as an emperor, then she's also not qualified to be the ruler of a country. No matter what she has done in the past, as long as she can afford this position, I, Di Renjie, will do my best to assist her. Her Majesty, she was indeed better than anyone, even the first emperor, and was the wisest ruler I have ever seen.

But people change. Her current ambition is constantly growing, and people's hearts are greedy after all. If an emperor can be so greedy as to sacrifice his people, then we, as ministers, must remove her from power and take back all that she has.

And now that she has done this kind of thing, she could have killed her own flesh and blood, so how could she care about her own people? ”

"So what do you mean?" Kai probably understood the meaning of Di Renjie's words, but he was still unsure and asked again.

"If you want to sit on the throne, or if you want to sit in this position all the time, you can't have clean hands. I'm really not a good person, and I've done a lot of things for her over the years to help her secure this throne. Of course, I, Di Renjie, will never do anything that hurts heaven and reason, and I have always been worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth in my actions. If the world is really peaceful one day, the Eye of Annihilation will really be successfully defeated. I don't think that a mere Tang Dynasty can satisfy her ambitions, because now she can even destroy Chang'an City in order to achieve her goals......" Di Renjie explained.

"So in the end, you still really think that Your Majesty is behind this disaster? Huaiying, I can understand your suspicions. But what you said is too early, the world is not yet peaceful, the Eye of Annihilation is the enemy of all of us, we must launch an army to attack the lair of the Eye of Annihilation as soon as possible! Mulan said resolutely.

"Mulan, everything is foreseen, and if you don't prepare, you will be wasted! Everything is in place to prevent problems before they happen.

Keep your eyes on it a little longer and plan as soon as possible to protect Datang in all aspects. If one day all the demon seeds are truly defeated, humanity enters a time of true peace. Do you really think that a mere Chang'an City or Datang can satisfy her? Di Renjie put down the teacup when he said this, and his expression was extremely solemn.

"If there really is such a day, as long as it endangers the people, even if it is Your Majesty or others, I, Hua Mulan, will definitely break this person's body into ten thousand pieces! I once swore that I would do everything I could to protect our hometown and our people!! Mulan said without hesitation.
