readx;? As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can make one invincible, Li Yao's bet this time, he gambled very correctly, Wu Zetian listened to Li Yao's words, after she figured out what happened, the whole person was completely calmed down, and there was no anger in his heart.

Looking up at Li Yao, Wu Zetian smiled and said to him: "Even if you confess everything to the mourning family, the mourning family asks you, how are you going to persuade the mourning family to spare her now?"
"Queen Mother, Huaiyi doesn't intend to convince you, but wants to make a deal with you Queen Mother......"
"Make a deal, what deal?" Before Li Yao finished speaking, Wu Zetian preemptively interrupted Li Yao and asked curiously.
Li Yao chose to make a deal with her at this time, this matter really surprised Wu Zetian, could it be that he still wanted to help him destroy Hehuanmen?
Wu Zetian couldn't help but think like this in his heart.
Li Yao replied quietly: "The Queen Mother is now powerful, and it is imperative to completely control the Tang Dynasty, but now is not the time, what the Queen Mother needs most now is to get rid of the forces that threaten her. ”
"What do you mean?" Wu Zetian asked.
"I can use my current status to help the Queen Mother get rid of Hehuanmen completely, but in return, I hope that the Queen Mother can let go of the smoke, after all, she is the last little princess of the previous dynasty, and I also have some feelings, I can't bear to see her die tragically, and I hope that the Queen Mother will promise Huaiyi. Li Yao said as he raised his fist towards Wu Zetian, looking very pleading.
Don't look at what Li Yao said about a transaction, but he understood a truth in his heart, that is, in front of Wu Zetian, a woman, there is no reason or condition to talk about at all, as long as she wants to, she can get rid of the scourge of Yan'er at any time, as for Hehuanmen, maybe Wu Zetian didn't care at all except for choking in her heart.
And Li Yao's idea was naturally right, after Wu Zetian heard his trading conditions, he suddenly opened his mouth and sneered, and after laughing for a while, she stopped smiling and said to Li Yao: "Okay! You start talking to the mourning family now, right?"
"Righteous conviction. Li Yao bowed his head and pleaded guilty.
"Hmph! Although you make the mourning family feel a little uncomfortable, but the mourning family likes a brave and knowledgeable man like you, and you dare to say this in front of the mourning family, you are still the first, and the mourning family admires you!" Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows and replied to Li Yao with appreciation.
Li Yao stood there tremblingly, not daring to say a word, he was not sure if Wu Zetian would agree to his deal, as long as she could agree, Na Yan'er's life would be saved.
Wu Zetian took a long breath, calmed down, and looked at Li Yao who was silent for a few seconds, she continued: "What is the origin of Hehuanmen, I am not interested now, even if you say that you want to make this deal with me, then I hope you can really do it and wipe out the remnants of the previous dynasty." ”
"What does the Queen Mother mean, promised me?" Li Yao shouted in surprise.
"Don't be too happy, before you get rid of Hehuan Gate, this Yang Yan'er, I have to lock her up in the cold palace first, guard her with heavy troops, and see her to death. Wu Zetian waved his hand to interrupt Li Yao, and replied to Li Yao coldly.
Li Yao's heart chuckled, and the expression on his face became ugly, thinking to himself, this cold palace is equivalent to a woman's grave! But all the women who are locked in the cold palace, a few of them come out of it, like after Tang Gaozong's death, some of his harem beauties were imprisoned in the cold palace by Wu Zetian.
These women either died of depression in the cold palace, or they committed suicide, and Wu Zetian now wants to lock Yan'er in such a place, which inevitably makes Li Yao a little reluctant.
But even if he doesn't want to, what can he do, Li Yao can pick up Yan'er's life now, it's already good, where do you dare to ask for so much?
In desperation, Li Yao stood there silent for a while, he had to look up at Wu Zetian, and said to her impatiently: "Okay! Then Huaiyi will thank the Empress Dowager for not killing Yan'er." ”
"Don't thank me, you just need to destroy the Hehuan Gate. Wu Zetian turned around and replied without looking back.
After speaking, she walked out of the lobby with steps, and Li Yao followed behind her in a hurry, and the two walked out like this.
Walking outside the lobby, Wu Zetian didn't think about it, but directly instructed Qin Jing: "Qin Jing! you take two people, escort her to the hidden palace, and then take turns to send people to watch her, and you must not let her escape from the hidden palace." ”
"Yes, Queen Mother, Qin Jing obeys. Qin Jing bowed his head and responded respectfully.
Then, he called two subordinates behind him, set up the dying Yan'er, and carried her towards the direction of the cold palace, Li Yao stood there, looking at the dying appearance of Yan'er, his heart was uncomfortable and distressed, he wanted to go up to see her, but Wu Zetian stood here and hated, he didn't dare.
It wasn't until Yan'er's figure disappeared that Wu Zetian said to Li Yao: "Don't look at it, go back to the Hall of Eternal Life with the mourning family, the mourning family still has something to say to you." ”
"Yes, Queen Mother, Huaiyi obeys. Li Yao didn't dare to disobey Wu Zetian at all, so he had to respond respectfully like Qin Jing.
Shangguan Wan'er stood aside, looking at Li Yao's aggrieved appearance, but she was very curious in her heart, she wanted to know what Li Yao had just said when she entered the lobby with Wu Zetian, which not only made Wu Zetian not angry, but also let her temporarily let Yan'er go.
If it was before, Wu Zetian would definitely have directly asked Qin Jing to cut the smoke with a knife, where would she spare her dog's life?
Wu Zetian didn't say anything more, after Li Yao responded, she turned around and left, heading back towards the Hall of Eternal Life, Li Yao and Shangguan Wan'er had to silently follow behind her and leave together.
Li Yao is hairy in his heart at the moment, even he doesn't know why, maybe it's because Yan'er was locked in the cold palace! He kept thinking in his heart, what way to save Yan'er, and at the same time, he had to find a way to get rid of Hehuan Gate, otherwise, not only would his life be lost, but even Yan'er would have to die with him.
With this kind of thought, Li Yao followed Wu Zetian all the way back to the Hall of Eternal Life.
Entering the cabinet, Wu Zetian sent Shangguan Wan'er down to rest, and she herself sat down behind the long case and said to Li Yao: "Take a seat!"
"Yes, Queen Mother. Li Yao hurriedly responded and sat opposite Wu Zetian.
"Although you made this deal with me, I also know that you will definitely not be able to get rid of Hehuan Gate in a short period of time, so I will give you some time, and you will be limited to get rid of it within a year, and in this year's time, you still have to take the Feng Pavilion for me, can you do it?" Wu Zetian ordered Li Yao with a cold face and gave Li Yao time.
Li Yao's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he was very anxious.
But at this moment, Li Yao thought that there was still something in his arms, that is, the list that Li Chong gave him, so Li Yao reached into his arms, took out the list, handed it to Wu Zetian, and said to her: "Queen Mother, this is the list I flickered from Li Chong, and the names of all the people in his Feng Pavilion are written on this list." ”
"Yes, it seems that I didn't let you break with Li Chong, this choice is right. Wu Zetian took the list and praised Li Yao happily.
While speaking, she opened the list and looked at it, but looking at it, Wu Zetian suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped the table, and shouted angrily: "Damn, I actually arranged so many people to enter the Feng Pavilion, good you Li Chong, I underestimated you." ”
"The Queen Mother is angry, now that the list is available, just deal with them slowly. Li Yao helplessly raised a smile and replied to Wu Zetian.
"Then how are you going to get rid of these people now?" Wu Zetian slapped the list on the table and asked Li Yao solemnly.
Li Yao was stunned for a moment, and then his mind flashed, and he replied in a low voice: "Queen Mother, in fact, the way to deal with these people is very simple, and it is not suitable for me to deal with them, and it is only appropriate for Lou Lao to deal with them, and I only found out after staying in the Feng Pavilion for a day today." ”
"Lou Shide, that old guy, will he help me?" Wu Zetian couldn't hear it clearly, so he asked Li Yao directly.
"I have persuaded Elder Lou today that he has agreed to step down from the position of Feng Pavilion Great Zhan. Li Yao immediately gave Wu Zetian a dose of fierce medicine.
He knew that what Wu Zetian wanted to hear the most was that Lou Shide automatically resigned from the position of Feng Pavilion Da Zhan, so that she could have the opportunity to completely control Feng Pavilion, and Wu Zetian suddenly heard Li Yao's words, and she directly stood up from behind the long case excitedly.
Glaring at Li Yao in disbelief, Wu Zetian asked directly, "How did you do it? It's not easy to make that stubborn old guy loosen his mouth!"
"That's right, what the elder brother means is that after he leaves office, he will hand over the position of Fengge Dazhan to Li Chong, the king of Langya......"
"What? It can't be, I absolutely disagree. Before Li Yao finished speaking, Wu Zetian interrupted Li Yao in such a hurry.
She and Li Chong were mortal enemies, and she had long wanted to take down Feng Ge, so she wished that she could control Feng Ge as soon as possible, and where did she cheapen Li Chong for nothing and let Li Chong take over Feng Ge? This is an impossible thing, Li Yao said this, Wu Zetian of course objected to it.
What Li Yao wanted was Wu Zetian's reaction, the corners of his mouth twitched into a secret smile, Li Yao hurriedly said to Wu Zetian: "Queen Mother, don't worry, listen to me slowly." ”
"Okay, you say. Wu Zetian calmed down and replied coldly.
"I told my brother that if he wants to hand over the Feng Pavilion to Li Chong, the Queen Mother will definitely not agree, so the elder brother said, and let me bring a message to the Queen Mother, before he resigns, he will clear all the people on this list from the Feng Pavilion, in this way, even if Li Chong takes over the Xia Feng Pavilion, there is no manpower in the Feng Pavilion, and the Queen Mother may arrange for her own people to enter the Feng Pavilion to fill these vacancies, so even if the old brother hands over the Feng Pavilion to Li Chong, how much of a threat can it be to the Queen Mother?" Li Yao told Wu Zetian a white lie again, and for a woman like Wu Zetian, he naturally wanted to attack his heart.
And after Wu Zetian listened to Li Yao's words, she was still a little angry just now, but she immediately calmed down, thought carefully in her heart, and thought about it for a while, Wu Zetian also secretly felt that this Lou Shide really deserved to be the Great Zhan of Fengge, and he was really very smart, so she had to admire it!
