I have to say that Empress Wu's evaluation of Li Qinzai is very objective.

Li Qinzai really will not be used by any power, only effective loyalty to the imperial power is the safest in this world, and any force outside the imperial power is full of danger, because they are not the power granted by the monarch, but "forming a party".

It is very dangerous to form a faction, once the emperor does not like it and the situation in the court is out of balance, the factional henchmen will inevitably be adjusted and purged by the emperor until they reach balance in the court again.

The post-party is no exception.

Today's Empress Wu has not yet turned the sky upside down, the court is still in the hands of Li Zhi, and Li Qinzai is even more unlikely to stand in the team of Empress Wu, which is digging his own grave.

"Speaking of which, Jing Chu has great kindness to my two princesses, and Su Jie told me yesterday that I must let the two sisters thank you for your great kindness in person." Li Zhi said with a smile.

Li Qinzai hurriedly said: "No need, the minister is just doing his duty......

After a pause, Li Qinzai glanced at Empress Wu quickly and added: "The minister has no other intentions, he just thinks that the two princesses are innocent and pitiful, they are harmless, and they don't have to suffer this grievance." ”

The word "harmless", Li Qinzai bit harder, and after the martial queen's expression was stunned, he immediately glanced at him coldly.

She knew that this was a hint from Li Qinzai's release, to the effect that I didn't mean to target you this time, I just felt that the two princesses were pitiful and wanted to save them.

But this time Li Qinzai really offended the Empress Wu ruthlessly, how could he easily forgive him?

Li Zhi smiled and looked at the undercurrent between Li Qinzai and his mother-in-law, but as if he didn't realize it, he turned his head to the attendant next to him and said, "Summoning Sujie and the two princesses into the palace." ”

Soon Li Sujie and the two princesses came to the main hall, Li Sujie saluted Li Zhi, the two princesses timidly looked at the familiar and unfamiliar father who was sitting in the hall, and also bowed down, and the moment they lowered their heads, tears fell to the ground.

Li Zhi's expression was also momentarily stunned for a moment, and then he forced a smile to flatten the three of them.

Then Li Sujie saluted Li Qinzai again, and Li Qinzai nodded.

The two princesses glanced at each other, stepped forward to bow down to Li Qinzai together, and said in unison: "Thank you for your life-saving grace." ”

Li Qinzai couldn't sit still, and hurriedly got up to return the salute.

Li Zhi said with a smile: "Jing Chu sits, you can afford their big gifts." ”

Li Qinzai smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is just doing his duty, how dare he be such a big gift." ”

Just as he was about to continue to be modest, Li Sujie suddenly knelt down on Li Qinzai's knees.

Li Qinzai was so frightened that he almost jumped up, it is understandable that the two princesses made a big salute, our teachers and students are so familiar, and this great gift is either a traitor or a thief.

"What do you want to do?" Li Qinzai asked with a wary expression.

Li Sujie bowed to the ground and said: "Sir, the two sisters of the disciple deeply admire Mr. for his talent and learning, and want to ask Mr. for knowledge, and I am willing to serve Mr. with disciple courtesy, and ask Mr. for permission." ”

Li Qinzai said without hesitation: "Do you see the gate behind you?" Get out of here. ”

Li Sujie pleaded: "Mr. Kaig, the two sisters do have the desire to learn, Mr. has peerless knowledge, and the two sisters of the disciples are willing to pass on Mr.'s knowledge to future generations, and establish a sect of Zongshan that has never been seen before." ”

Li Qinzai flatly refused: "I don't accept female disciples." ”

"Why?" Li Sujie asked disappointedly.

"My mother-in-law, that is, your master is a vinegar jar, if I accept a female disciple, it is not clear what the melon field and plum are talking about."

Who knew that the two princesses also suddenly knelt down towards Li Qinzai, lowered their heads and said, "The disciple sincerely wants to study, please Mr. Li to fulfill it." ”

Li Qinzai still shook his head and refused.

Li Zhi looked at the two strange daughters, and then looked at Li Sujie's pleading expression, and his heart moved, and he immediately knew why they insisted on worshipping Li Qinzai as a teacher.

When children cannot find refuge from their fathers, they can only ask for others, they are still children, and they can no longer withstand the storm.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi felt guilty in his heart.

A father like him is really a failure.

And he can't even make amends to them, because even he can't guarantee that if they still live in the palace, they will not be harmed by the queen for some legitimate reason.

The methods of the Empress Wu, no one knows better than Li Zhi.

Perhaps, it is a way to let them leave this palace and study in peace of mind away from the court.

With Li Qinzai taking care of them, Li Zhi can also rest assured, he knows that Li Qinzai will not fail him.

So Li Zhi suddenly said: "Jing Chu, you just agree." ”

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Zhi's eyes, and saw that Li Zhi's eyes were full of pleading, and Li Qinzai immediately understood the intention of the two princesses to apprentice.

sighed secretly, why did you marry an unconscious mother-in-law, why do you want me to wipe your ass?

I invented toilet paper, but wiping my butt is not my specialty.

Li Qinzai quickly glanced at Empress Wu, and saw that her face was expressionless, as if she was unaware of the pleas of the two princesses and Li Zhi, and everything that happened in front of her was as if it were transparent.

Li Qinzai hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, I'll ......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Sujie was overjoyed, quickly got up and stood between the two princesses, pressed the back of their heads with both hands, and shouted in a deep voice: "Hurry up and bow to the master!" ”

The two princesses were caught off guard, and were pressed down on their heads by Li Sujie, and kowtowed to Li Qinzai one after another.

As if afraid that Li Qinzai would regret it, Li Sujie pressed the back of the heads of the two princesses and kept exclaiming, "Goodbye!" Bow! ”

While saying that, Li Sujie's tears fell like a shower, and the two princesses also understood their younger brother's intentions, and they didn't need him to press their heads, they kept kowtowing to Li Qinzai like pounding garlic.

Their tears could not stop flowing, and they bowed their heads with a cry that they tried to suppress.

Like a man struggling in deep water clinging to a piece of driftwood, the two princesses saw hope for life.

This kind of hope is something that even my father is reluctant to give.

In this world, they are no different from orphans.

Li Qinzai is the only light in their lives.

In order to survive, they must chase this light.

In the main hall, Li Zhi also shed tears, whether he was guilty or distressed, only he knew.

Empress Wu is still expressionless, at this moment, she is like a thoughtless sculpture, choosing to ignore everything outside her body.

The joys and sorrows of the world, life and death, the Empress Wu has experienced no less than anyone else, two generations of emperors have been favored and humiliated, and the harem has not seen the battle of gunpowder for many years, and her heart has long been cold and hard as iron.

Seeing the two princesses knocking so much that blood oozed from their foreheads, Li Qinzai felt a sense of sadness.

For the first time in my life, I felt distressed for two strange women, which had nothing to do with the love between men and women, only full of compassion.

"Alright, after the ceremony, I will accept you." Li Qinzai said in a deep voice.

As if they hadn't heard, the two princesses kept kowtowing, but Li Sujie stopped them.

Straightening them up, Li Sujie raised his sleeves to wipe the blood from his foreheads for the two sisters, and said with a smile with tears: "Does it hurt?" ”

Princess Yiyang shook her head and smiled back: "It doesn't hurt." ”

Li Zhi swallowed for a moment, and sighed gloomily: "Jing Chu, treat them well, I owe them what I owe them, you can help me make up for it, okay?" ”

Li Qinzai looked him in the eye and nodded, "The ministers will not wronged them." ”
