On the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve, there was a heavy snowfall, and the entire Chang'an City was a white landscape.

The court was quite calm, and there was no court meeting held a year ago, and many ministers were relieved, thinking that the dispute between the empress dowager and the emperor had come to an end for the time being, but Liu Yi, who returned to the palace for the New Year, was full of worries, and what he was worried about was finally going to happen.

Liu Yi stood in front of the window, looking at the snowflakes that were still falling intermittently, thinking about what Shangguan Wan'er told her the day before.

In order to know what Wu Zetian left Pei Yan and Wu Sansi to discuss, Liu Yi disguised himself at night and secretly sneaked to Shangguan Wan'er's place to inquire about the situation.

Shangguan Wan'er did not disappoint Liu Yi, and probably heard the content of their conversation, but the content of this conversation surprised Liu Yi very much, Wu Sansi proposed that Wu Zetian abolish Li Xian, the emperor, and set up another king who had been renamed Li Xian as the emperor, that is, the original Zhongzong Emperor Li Xian in history, Pei Yan listened to it, although it was inappropriate, but he did not express strong opposition, Wu Zetian did not blame Wu Sansi, after Pei Yan left, Wu Zetian and Wu Sansi discussed secretly for a long time, But what the two discussed, Shangguan Wan'er didn't inquire. Liu Yi, who heard the news, was shocked, although he guessed that the three people would definitely discuss what means to deal with Li Xian, he didn't expect that they would discuss the matter of abolishing Li Xian.

Even if Liu Yi didn't know what Wu Zetian and Wu Sansi discussed in the end, he could guess that the two aunts and nephews must have discussed this matter, which made Liu Yi feel that history was going to repeat itself.

In the original history, Li Xian was the emperor, because he wanted to award Empress Wei's father as a servant, and he also wanted to make his nurse's son a five-grade official. Such a move messed up the court, which led to Wu Zetian's desire to abolish Emperor Li Xian, but now Li Xian is diligent in court affairs, conscientious and conscientious, and has not made any criticism, but he is dissatisfied with Wu Zetian's single-handed covering, and he appointed some ministers to participate in the court, so that he can express his voice in the court, such a move led to Wu Zetian's ruthlessness, and he was ready to abolish Li Xian's emperor, which is too incredible.

That night, after listening to Shangguan Wan'er's words, Liu Yi didn't say anything, but just comforted Shangguan Wan'er, who was full of fear, and told her not to worry, with him Liu Yi here, the sky would not fall, and then he returned to the camp of the Yulin Army at night.

Liu Yi came and went freely in the palace, without being discovered by anyone, this was the territory under his jurisdiction, and he knew the patrol situation of the sergeant best, how to avoid the patrolling sergeant, through the city gate guarded by Huan Yanfan, and return to the Yulin army camp, it really didn't take much effort.

If Wu Zetian wants to abolish the emperor's heart, the conflict between the two may be very intense, and Liu Yi must be prepared.

Liu Yi stood like this and thought about it for a long time, but still didn't have a very clear idea, when there was a light footstep behind him.

"Husband, what are you thinking?" With the voice, a pair of arms reached into the crook of Liu Yi's arm.

Liu Yi turned his head and looked at Princess Taiping, who was a little fat after giving birth, and showed a relieved smile, "Yue'er, my husband is just enjoying the snow scene, you see that the plum blossoms are blooming, and then it snows heavily, isn't it beautiful, last year, we and Wan'er were still sitting together to enjoy the snow and taste wine and chant poetry, but unfortunately this year, you have become a mother, and Wan'er can't get out of the palace, and there can be no more last year's scene..."

Princess Taiping leaned her head on Liu Yi and sighed faintly: "Alas, the queen mother is unwilling to allow Wan'er to be your wife, and in the future, the three of us will rarely have the opportunity to go out to play together, and the queen mother has already warned me that I must not take Wan'er out of the palace again..."

"Really?" Liu Yi was shocked again.

"Yes," Princess Taiping nodded, "The concubine was afraid that you would worry, so I didn't tell you... Husband, the concubine knows, you have something to hide from me... During this time, did anything major happen in the DPRK and China? ”

Liu Yi shook his head, "Yue'er, don't be cranky, nothing has happened, it's almost the New Year, everyone is going to have a good year..."

"Don't lie to me, the concubine already knows that there is a dispute between the queen mother and the imperial brother, and the imperial brother has appointed five prime ministers in one go to participate in the deliberations of the political hall, and you are one of them," Princess Taiping grabbed Liu Yi's shoulder tightly, "Husband, the concubine is very scared, and she really wants to enter the palace to persuade the queen mother and the imperial brother not to fight, and the father has only been dead for so many months..."

"Yue'er, you must not enter the palace to persuade your mother and royal brother, you can't persuade you!" Liu Yi turned around and held Princess Taiping in his arms, "Don't worry, in a few more days, it will be fine... I've told you something before!"

Princess Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "The concubine understands that the concubine will support her husband at any time!"

Liu Yi stroked Princess Taiping's smooth face, and said apologetically: "Yue'er, this year, I may have to stay in the palace most of the time, and I can't accompany you in the mansion, please be more considerate, when things in the court and China have calmed down, I will definitely spare a lot of time to accompany you and Xiao Qi'er!"

"The concubine knows, you can go about your business!" Princess Taiping got up from Liu Yi's arms, looked up at Liu Yi's eyes, and smiled, "The concubine hopes that the queen mother and the royal brother can be safe, and I hope that the husband can be safe and sound for the rest of his life... The rest is nothing more extravagant!"

Liu Yi was about to say something, when a personal guard outside the house came over to report, "Young master, someone outside asked to see him, saying that Pei Shangshu sent him!"

"Oh, please!" As soon as Liu Yi heard that Pei Xingjian had sent him, he immediately ordered him to come in.

Princess Taiping gave two more commands and returned to her house.

After the person from Pei's mansion came in, he said to Liu Yi: "General Liu, my master asks the general to come over to the mansion to talk!"

"Okay, I'll go right away!" When Liu Yi heard this, he immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare horses.

Liu Yi braved the wind and snow to come to Pei Xingjian's mansion, but saw Cen Changqian, Wei Xuantong, Wei Yuanzhong were all there, and one was Guo Xiaoke's son Guo Beiju, these people, together with themselves, were all people who had just been appointed by Li Xian to serve as the ordinary minister of Tongzhongshu.

Several people saluted each other and sat down on the side of the couch where Pei Xingjian was lying.

Pei Xingjian opened his mouth to speak: "During this time, the battle between the Queen Mother and Her Majesty has become increasingly fierce, and you are all the people who Your Majesty has given heavy use this time, and you must also understand the meaning... Alas, I didn't expect that such a situation would occur in the DPRK and China!"

As Pei Xingjian started talking, several other people also expressed some helplessness and worry in their hearts.

"Teacher, everyone!" After listening to some of what everyone said, Liu Yi got up and saluted everyone, "According to some information found below, the Queen Mother has already set up a new emperor with the intention of abolishing the emperor and setting up a new monarch..."

"What?" Liu Yi's words fell like a bombshell, blowing everyone up, when the empress dowager wanted to abolish the emperor and set up a new monarch, this was something that no one had ever expected.

"Yi'an, where did you hear that? Is it true? Pei Xingjian also looked nervous, and asked repeatedly.

Liu Yi nodded, "There will definitely be no fake," Liu Yi had a serious look on his face, "Presumably after the year, there will be a fierce debate at the court meeting, arguing about the appointment of the five officials of the Tongzhong Shumen Pingzhang Affairs, what the final situation is, it should surprise everyone!"

Among the crowd, Pei Xingjian took the lead in calming down and motioned to the others to discuss how to deal with it.

Liu Yi listened to Pei Xingjian's instructions to a few people, and he was also thinking that his mentor, at this time, could gather these people together to discuss things, and it was to discuss such a major event in the DPRK and China, and the intention was definitely not simple.

Of course, Pei Xingjian summoned these people, which also shows that these are people he trusts, and Liu Yi has fewer scruples when he speaks, he believes in Pei Xingjian's way of acting.

Everyone deliberated for most of the day, and had some countermeasures, before they left-

This year also passed peacefully, the Yuan Dynasty was called the Great Dynasty Meeting, and the Manchu Dynasty was still a harmonious atmosphere.

Emperor Li Xian announced the edict of changing the Yuan at the court meeting, in which he announced that the name of the Yuan Dynasty would be changed to Kaiyao and that he would grant amnesty to the world.

Wu Zetian did not participate in this court meeting, after the court meeting, Li Xian also held a banquet in the Lin De Palace, banqueting all the ministers and foreign envoys who participated in the court meeting, and the entire Daming Palace was harmonious and harmonious. But many people know that behind this apparent calm, there are very large waves.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Wu Zetian also participated in the official court meeting, and still sat behind the curtain to listen to the government.

After Li Xian announced the start of the court meeting, the Zhongshu ordered Pei Yan to be the first to stand up, accusing the emperor Li Xian of setting up too many prime ministers, messing up the court, so many ministers are in the prime minister's position, which has never been done since ancient times, Pei Yan asked the emperor to maintain the stability of the Tang Dynasty in the recital, and asked the emperor to withdraw the edict appointed by the new prime minister, so as to avoid chaos in the court.

Then Wu Sansi also immediately stood up and expressed an opinion similar to Pei Yan's.

After Pei Yan and Wu Sansi finished speaking, Li Xian stood up and waved his hand vigorously, "Now that the prime minister of the political hall is too old, I want to add some young and promising people, and some new policies can be better proposed, don't discuss this matter again!"

As soon as Li Xian finished speaking, Cen Changqian and Wei Yuanzhong immediately stood up and expressed their support for the emperor's decision, and at the same time accused Pei Yan of moving the meeting place of the political hall to Zhongshu Province, which was an act of seizing power.

Pei Yan and the others immediately stood up to refute, Cen Changqian and the others fought back with fierce words, and for a while, the Xuanzheng Hall was very lively, and many ministers were dumbfounded.

These people who are in the prime minister's position have such disputes in the court, but it is rare that something big will happen in the court.

While the ministers were arguing fiercely, Wu Zetian, who had been sitting behind the curtain, stood up, walked to the front of the hall, and shouted: "Enough, what kind of system is it so noisy?" ”

As soon as these words came out, both parties stopped talking, retreated, and looked at Wu Zetian who walked to the front of the hall for the first time during the court meeting in surprise.

Wu Zetian looked at His Royal Highness's ministers majestically for a while, then turned his head, pointed at Li Xian, who was sitting on the throne, and accused loudly: "Your Majesty's appointment of a number of officials to list the prime minister's ministers is indeed inappropriate, this palace does not approve of this move, and please think twice before considering it!"

After Wu Zetian finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Xian's reaction, that is, he brushed his sleeves and left.

After Wu Zetian left, Li Xian, who had a blue face, stood up from the throne, also swept the faces of His Royal Highness's ministers, and shouted: "I am the emperor, and I have the right to appoint officials, and I will not take back my fate... Scatter!"

Saying that, Li Xian also brushed his sleeves away!

Looking at Li Xian's departing back, Liu Yi sighed helplessly and tore his face... The show is about to begin!
