Cao Fugui's fetish is indeed very decompressing.

Wei Xiaobao is in a good mood and can see the problem more clearly.

Kong Liang, as a strategist beside Li Hao, is known as "Living Zhuge ", and the idea of fake Li Hao to enter Chang'an was also made by this person.

Even if they control Liu Can's family, there is no guarantee that Liu Can will be obedient and not confide in the outside world.

In other words, Kong Liang deliberately revealed the full plan to Liu Can.

This guy calculated that after Liu Can was discovered, he would definitely turn back, so he used Liu Can's mouth to tell their full plan.

The fact that the enemy is idiotic to such an extent only shows that they think their opponent is even more stupid.

Wei Xiaobao thought about stopping and looked at a bare magnolia tree beside him, his brows furrowed.

What Kong Liang wanted was to borrow the mouths of the storytellers in Chang'an to tell the people of Chang'an their plans on the bright side.

This plan on the surface is actually perfect.

The whole plan can be completed by their own people, so as not to show any flaws, on the contrary, to coerce Liu Can to join, it is already too risky, and they can only want to leak this bright plan.

Just the purpose?

Even if Wei Xiaobao racked his brains, he couldn't think of the real purpose behind this.

"Father-in-law Wei stays." Wei Xiaobao was about to go to Shangshan Prison, but he heard a gentle voice behind him.

A palace maid walked quickly from behind, bowed when she approached, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Wei, the Queen Mother is invited." ”

The first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, the queen was honored as the queen mother, and the rest of the concubines who had children were all queen mothers.

After the real empress dowager was assassinated by Wei Xiaobao, because Li Zheng was not yet married, the harem needed a principal.

Empress Dowager Sun, who has always been close to Li Zheng, is naturally in charge of the harem.

Empress Dowager Sun is more than forty years old, her charm still exists, and she has only one daughter under her knees, called the lord of Anping.

Li Wei, the county lord of Anping, was rude, and all the people in the palace were afraid of her, and even Wei Xiaobao hid from a distance when he saw her.

After Empress Dowager Sun entered the harem, she moved to the Peony Palace.

The Peony Palace has naturally undergone a renovation, and the old things in it have been thrown away and replaced with the common things of the Empress Dowager Sun.

Empress Dowager Sun also likes to stay in the Moonset Pavilion.

The stone table in the pavilion is full of fruit snacks.

"Slave Wei Xiaobao to meet the Queen Mother." Wei Xiaobao saluted outside the pavilion.

"Xiaobao, come and sit." Mrs. Sun had a kind face, and the two dimples on her cheeks when she laughed were extremely intoxicating.

Wei Xiaobao got up and entered the pavilion, but he stood with his head bowed and did not sit down.

Empress Dowager Sun was not forced, and said with a smile: "In a few months, Zheng'er will already be weak, and it is time to get married." ”

According to the practice of the Great Wei royal family, the marriage of the prince cannot be earlier than the year of the weak crown.

But for these men who were born into the royal family, the conventions only had to be followed, not that they could not be eaten.

However, Wei Xiaobao believes that Li Zheng is still a chick.

Li Zheng is about to reach the age of the weak crown, and he is already in power, so he should indeed get married and have children.

Empress Dowager Sun smiled and said, "Xiaobao, Zheng'er trusts you very much, and I trust you too, I want to leave this matter to you after Zheng'er's election." ”

"Queen Mother, slaves don't understand ......" Wei Xiaobao pretended to shirk.

Empress Dowager Sun chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, anyway, there will be people below to do the work, you just need to supervise them." ”

"Then the slave will try it." Wei Xiaobao nodded slightly.

Empress Dowager Sun said: "After electing Your Majesty, it is by no means a trivial matter, and you can't let those people with ulterior motives manipulate it, do you know what I mean?" ”

"The slave understands." Wei Xiaobao said.

Empress Dowager Sun breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "After the matter is completed, I will be rewarded." ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Wei Xiaobao knelt down and thanked him.

Coming out of the Peony Palace, Wei Xiaobao didn't go anywhere, and quickly came to the Qiankun Palace.

Li Zheng was reviewing the folds, and when he saw Wei Xiaobao going and returning, he asked, "Xiaobao has something to do?" ”

Wei Xiaobao didn't salute this time, came directly to Li Zheng, and asked with a smile, "What kind of girl does Xiao Zheng like?" ”

"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Li Zheng looked confused.

It seems that Li Zheng didn't know that Empress Dowager Sun was going to start selecting him as a queen.

Wei Xiaobao said: "I plan to find more young and beautiful yellow flower girls in the rivers and lakes to give to Xiaozheng." ”

"Don't make a fuss." Li Zheng put down the pen in his hand, and his face was soothing.

Wei Xiaobao stopped joking, and said, "Just now, Empress Dowager Sun came to me and asked me to start choosing a queen for Your Majesty." ”

"After the election?" Li Zheng was slightly stunned.

But he shook his head vigorously and said, "Li Hao has not been removed, what will I choose?" ”

"In a few months, Your Majesty will be twenty years old, and it will be time to get married after the election." Wei Xiaobao persuaded.

Li Zheng still felt that it was inappropriate, and said: "That's it, since the Queen Mother makes you responsible, then you can drag it as long as you can." ”

"Okay then." Wei Xiaobao knew that it would be difficult to convince Li Zheng.

In his previous life, when he was Li Zheng's age, he was already talking about a second girlfriend.

The post-election process is very slow, even if everything goes smoothly, from the initial audition to the final election, it will take more than half a year.

The queens of the Great Wei Dynasty were all selected from the people.

The governor of the Great Inner Department was responsible for recruiting 5,000 girls between the ages of 14 and 16 from all over the Great Wei Dynasty, and then after layers of selection, nine people would finally be determined, and then the crown prince or emperor would personally select the candidates for the crown princess or empress.

To accomplish this, it is necessary to work together with the Ministry of Rites to improve efficiency.

Since Li Zheng is not in a hurry, Wei Xiaobao is naturally not in a hurry, and the top priority is to resolve the conspiracy behind the hanging corpse case.

The net has been cast, and whether you can catch the fish depends on luck.

Wei Xiaobao went out of the palace and came to the East Factory, and fell asleep when he entered the house.

About three hours later, Wei Qi knocked on the door and woke Wei Xiaobao up.

Liu Can was weak, but he still risked his life and caught the thief who contacted him.

This thief is thin and short, his skills are in the five-story building, and his eyes are very small, which can be described as the eyes of a thief.

Liu Can's lower body was bleeding profusely, and his eyes were full of gold stars, but fortunately he was discovered by the people of Dongchang in time, and he was pulled back from the ghost gate.

No matter who interrogates the thief, that guy won't speak.

Wei Qi tried all kinds of torture tools, but the effect was not very good, and he didn't dare to use excessive torture, in case he killed this guy, he couldn't explain it to Wei Xiaobao.

"Master, I tried my best, but that guy didn't speak." Wei Qi was very ashamed.

Wei Xiaobao patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Learn a little." ”

The thief was locked up in a firewood room in the East Factory, and his hands and feet had already been broken.

Wei Xiaobao entered the firewood room and asked, "Do you want to get rid of it quickly?" ”

"You are Wei Xiaobao?" The thief looked up sharply, his expression disdainful.
