Soon autumn was in full swing, and on both sides of the royal road, the tall branches of the locust trees were like soldiers holding halberds, guarding the seemingly calm imperial city.

"Your Majesty, Lady of Wei Guo...... Mrs. Wei ...... She ......, "A eunuch hurriedly walked into the Changsheng Hall of Daming Palace, and after saluting, he was timid and repaid. This Wei State Lady Helan is the daughter of Empress Wu's sister Wu Shun, and the relationship between Li Zhi and Wu Shun's mother and daughter has long been known in the palace.

Li Zhi frowned, the headache seemed to be aggravated, but he didn't show impatience, and still said in a calm tone: "What's wrong with her?" ”

"Lady Wei Guo...... She...... She...... Die...... Finish. The eunuch replied intermittently, his voice getting lower and lower.

Li Zhi closed his eyes in some pain, and without saying a word for a long time, an older attendant stepped forward and carefully massaged his temples.

"How did you die?" His attitude suddenly became indifferent, and there was a chill on his thin lips.

The eunuch shuddered for a moment, and his shoulders trembled: "Poisoned to death." ”

"When did it happen?" Li Zhi didn't seem surprised.

"Last night." It's not so much that words are like gold, but that this eunuch is very sparing.

"Last night......" Li Zhi repeated, and said to himself: "Didn't the queen hold a family banquet in the palace last night?" As her niece, Mrs. Wei has no reason to be absent. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Madame Wei was still safe and sound when she left the queen's bed late at night, after eating the food given by the queen's two brothers......" The eunuch said quickly, as if he wanted to clarify something, more like he was anxious to get rid of everything to do with him—although it was not related in the first place.

"Are you all so afraid of the Queen?" Li Zhi actually smiled, his body became weaker day by day, but his heart became clearer day by day.

The eunuch was silent.

"Alright, you can step aside." Li Zhi waved his hand weakly.

When it came to the palace, only the elder attendant remained, and the emperor, who had been described by the world as gentle and almost cowardly when he was young, flicked his sleeve sharply, and the corner of his sleeve swept to a glass of cheese on the table in front of him, and suddenly a large piece of it splashed.

The attendant hurriedly made amends, and was about to beckon the palace people to enter the palace to clean up, but Li Zhi waved his hand to stop: "That's it." Glancing at this henchman who had followed him for many years, he lightly opened the corners of his mouth: "Fusheng, come up with an idea for me, just like back then." ”

"Everyone, why do you want to mention it again?" The facial muscles of the servant named Fusheng trembled, "The past, the old slave has long forgotten it. ”

Li Zhi seemed to smile: "I can forget the past and forget the present, but what will I do in the future?" ”

Wang Fusheng squinted slightly, the deep crow's feet at the corners of his eyes did not look old, but instead revealed wisdom and the city: "What do you think of the Xitai squire?" ”

"Did you say Shangguanyi?" Li Zhi's tone sounded slightly contemptuous, "The five-character poem is well written, but it's a pity that he is proud of his talents and self-appreciation." In the official career, it can be said that he is on the rise, and he also has a status that cannot be underestimated in the court, but he ......" He paused here and stopped talking.

"It's just that everyone doesn't value this person, on the contrary, they are a little disgusted." Wang Fusheng broke his words, he had a tall and hooked nose, thinking that he had inherited part of the Xianbei bloodline.

Li Zhigan laughed, and couldn't hear the praise or disapproval: "Wang Fusheng, it's really Wang Fusheng." Over the years, how many people have died around me, but you have always been alive. ”

"Thank you for your blessings." Wang Fusheng replied respectfully.

"Put that set away. If I really blessed the sky, Queen Wang, Concubine Xiao Shu, and several of my princes and princesses, Mrs. Han and Mrs. Wei...... They should all live a long life. Li Zhi never seemed to be ecstatic, and his steady tone revealed mixed emotions.

Wang Fusheng was afraid that he would offend Tianyan, so he had to choose to be speechless and stand aside with his eyes down.

"Let's get down to business, let's go back to Shangguanyi." Li Zhi tilted his head back and moved his neck.
