Chapter 1392: When and How Did the Emperor Die?
It was drizzling and smoky.
In March, the city of Logos was also shrouded in rain and fog.
Li Xuan was wearing a black brocade robe, standing in front of the window, and in the basin behind him, the paper ashes had been completely dispersed.
Look at the raindrops that fall from the sky and then explode on the windowsill.
Li Xuan's eyes brought a trace of sadness.
Wu Chengji died.
An hour of human blood is enough to completely drain the blood in a person's body.
If it is confirmed that the person is Wu Chenghei, and that the person's wrist has been cut and bleeding all the time, then there is no doubt that within an hour, his blood will be completely drained.
Li Xuan didn't know how Empress Wu explained in other places, but Wu Chengsi was indeed dead.
Recalling the contact with Wu Chengsi over the years, the pity in Li Xuan's eyes gradually converged.
Wu Chenghe, he deserves to die.
When Li Zhi was still alive, Empress Wu still knew how to restrain the children of the Wu family, but as soon as Li Zhi died, the children of the Wu family immediately became crazy and arrogant.
After offering flattery to Wu, he brutalized the king, framed the ministers, and oppressed the people.
Even if Wu Chengsi was suppressed by Empress Wu, he didn't know how many things he had done that hurt heaven and reason.
That is, Li Xuan is away all the year round, otherwise, he would have already found a way to blow the prestige of the Empress Wu by exposing the scandal of Wu Chenghe.
Shaking his head, Li Xuan knew in his heart that this was impossible.
Because the person who really allowed Wu Chengji to be so wanton was the emperor.
On the emperor's power scale, Wu Chenghe, as well as the Hongnong Yang family, are very important chess pieces in the family of relatives.
Whether it is Li Hong's wife's Pei family, or Li Xian's wife's Fang family, or Li Xian's wife's Wei family, to be precise, they are all relatives.
It's nothing more than that the pieces will be placed in different places when the emperor needs them.
The emperor needs Wu Chenghei, and naturally he also needs Wu Sansi.
If you want to secretly attack the prestige of the Wu clan, then you must not make a fuss about Li Zhi's power scale.
Then there is only Li Xian.
When Li Xian becomes the emperor, the weight of the Wu family on the emperor's power scale will be greatly reduced.
But the premise is that it is Emperor Li Zhi, when will he die.
Li Xuan looked at the rain curtain outside the window, as if he saw the same rain curtain in Songshan.
Wu Chenghei is dead, which means that Empress Wu does not know the truth about the so-called Zhonglu Yanming Dan.
Li Xuan once blamed everything on the conspiracy of Empress Wu, but now it seems that the emperor is the one who is cold-blooded and ruthless.
He originally thought that Empress Wu knew the truth about Zhong Lu Yanming Dan, so he would not let Wu Chengsi die, Li Xuan began to calculate slowly, wanting the emperor to know that Wu Chengsi was not dead when he was dying, so that he would leave a testament at the last moment.
But now, Wu Chengsi is dead, and all Li Xuan's plans have to change.
He even needed to sort things out from scratch.
The emperor began to take medicine ten years ago, which shows that this medicine at least has a certain effect, and now the new medicine will not take long to practice, and after the emperor takes the medicine, it is very likely that he will continue to prolong his life for a period of time.
But the premise of all this is that the emperor must be able to take this elixir.
If Li Xuan, or other people, manipulated this flavor pill, or even didn't let the emperor take this flavor pill at all, then the emperor would be dead.
At this moment, the figure of Empress Wu inevitably jumped into Li Xuan's mind.
If it really comes to a critical moment, will Empress Wu let the emperor take medicine?
Over the years, as Li Xian has been the prince for longer and longer, people's hearts have been attached little by little.
Li Xuan's methods are very ingenious, and now he is only doing tricks and feet in the middle and lower classes.
Five-grade official, Lang Zhong level.
Fortunately at the moment, although these people have a key position in the DPRK and China, they do not have much say.
But after four or five years, these people will be at least at the level of squire, and they may even have a few Shangshu.
These people have all taught Li Xian, as long as Li Xian is willing to call these people teachers, then a few years later, these people will all be princes, or even emperors.
In that way, Li Xian has enough background in the six parts.
If you add all aspects of operation, he can even directly use the six Shangshu to overhead the prime minister, and even the emperor and the empress.
This is the fundamental purpose of Li Xuan's careful calculation now.
But that was five or six years later, and the emperor didn't care at all now.
However, in this world, there is no shortage of people who have great vision.
Li Xian was cowardly, and the emperor was extremely relieved of him, and even worried that he would not be able to support him, and wanted to survive for a few more years.
But Empress Wu can't wait, if the emperor passes this pass and continues to escort Li Xian, then even Empress Wu will not be able to do anything.
Even in the years to come, she will still be immersed in the battle with the prince.
From Li Hong to Li Xian, and then to Li Xian, if Li Xian is deposed again, the Empress Wu's desire for power will no longer be able to be hidden.
If the crown prince is abolished again under Li Zhi's nose, Li Zhi will definitely not give Empress Wu any chance to meddle in court politics.
Once Li Dan ascends the throne, all the courtiers of the government and the opposition will completely drive her back to the harem.
Even Pei Yan will not give her any chance.
There is only one chance left for the Empress Wu.
So......
Li Xuan's gaze became cold, if this time he really went that far, then his plan could be continued again.
It is nothing more than to exchange the news that Wu Chengji is alive for other means.
Empress Wu didn't want the emperor to live, and everything would only be revealed at the last moment.
What kind of means did Li Xuan use to be able to uncover everything and let the emperor see the true face of Empress Wu?
……
The cold wind blew, and Li Xuan's brows furrowed.
From the time Empress Wu made his move to the emperor's death, the time left for him would definitely not be very long.
Even in just half an hour, how can Li Xuan achieve his goal.
Li Xuan's eyes became colder and colder, and even his hand stretched out of the window, letting the cold rain hit his hand.
Packing up her thoughts, Li Xuan took a heavy breath.
Now it is still a long time before Songshan opens, and Li Xuanren is in Fanzhou, three thousand miles away, no matter what he wants to do, it is much more difficult than others in Chang'an.
After he returns to Chang'an, he can also be targeted according to the changes in the situation.
Now, in addition to the previous plan, Li Xuan's only place to do his hands is on Songshan Mountain.
The elixir.
Naturally, Empress Wu would not let Li Zhi take that pill, but that pill would at least be sent to the palace.
Even the elixir would be sent to the emperor so that the emperor could see it, but he would never be allowed to take it.
In this case, Li Xuan's place where he can do his hands lies in the bottle or box where the pill is placed.
Do things in those places, and then give the emperor who would have died a little more time to react.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan immediately walked quickly to the back of the table, picked up a pen and paper, and quickly wrote it down.
A prescription appeared in Li Xuan's pen.
After writing, Li Xuan looked up at the door: "Li Pen!" ”
"Whoa!" Li Bi, who had been guarding the door, immediately turned around, returned to the room, and arched his hand to Li Xuan: "Your Majesty." ”
"Send the letter out." Li Xuan handed over the rolled-up prescription with a solemn face.
Li Bi immediately gave up his hand, and then walked away quickly.
……
Li Xuan leaned back and closed her eyes slightly.
The next moment, he had already fallen into the perspective of the goshawk.
When Li Bi tied up the secret letter, a goshawk quickly flew into the sky, and then rushed straight in the direction of Chang'an.
It wasn't until the goshawk withdrew from Luoqi City and was not hindered in any way that Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and his gaze was retracted in an instant.
This secret letter will be sent by Goshawk to Xinghai, Changzhou, and then from Xinghai to Luoyang.
Halfway through, no one will know that this is Li Xuan's letter.
And now the emperor is still in Chang'an, and he has not yet set off for Luoyang, and the atmosphere in Luoyang is relatively relaxed.
In the end, this letter will be sent to the Songshan secret room.
Emperor Taiyin, who stayed in the secret room of Songshan, would use the medicine of Zhongdaoren to configure the prescription little by little according to the content of this secret letter.
Finally until it was sent to the Empress Wu, and even to the emperor.
If Empress Wu did not send the pill into the hands of the emperor, then this prescription would be effective under Li Xuan's deliberate means, and give the emperor another breath when the emperor was on the verge of death.
At that time, the emperor should be able to send the last testament.
This is Li Xuan's plan, but all this is likely to happen in half a year, and Li Xuan himself doesn't know what will happen at that time.
For now, it's just a metaphor for the pen.
As for the Taiyin Emperor Junyang God in the secret room of Songshan, it was originally hidden in the underground of the Chang'an Palace of the Han Dynasty, cultivated for a long time, and was used to preserve itself.
Later, because Li Xuan found that Songshan was likely to threaten Xia'er, he had the idea of transferring him over and protecting Xia'er at the same time.
After the Yang God arrived, he found that in the secret room of Songshan, it was extremely suitable for the cultivation of the Yang God.
Thinking about that place, it was originally used by the Zhongdao people to worship the ancestor Zhong Liquan, and there were several dried corpses inside, and the outside was a place for alchemy, which was strangely suitable for the cultivation of the Yang God.
Li Xuan faintly had a feeling that maybe the place itself was prepared for himself by Zhongdao people.
Although his cultivation is not high now, it does not mean that he will be in the future.
If the body of the outside world is sealed and only the yang god exists in the grotto, then it is equivalent to eternal life in disguise.
Of course, Zhongdao people should not have that opportunity.
After the death of the emperor, the Empress Wu will do something to him.
It's just whether to imprison him and make alchemy for himself, or to kill him directly, that's a matter for the martial queen.
Li Xuan only needs to stay there, while grinding the medicinal powder with her hands and feet, waiting for Xia'er to arrive, and then quietly protecting her.
As for the affairs of the outside world, it will not leave Songshan until Xia'er's affairs are resolved.
And when the emperor arrives in Luoyang this year, I'm afraid he won't leave easily, and wait until he returns to Chang'an, that is, at the end of next year.
……
Li Xuan looked up at the rain curtain outside, it didn't know if the emperor had a chance to return to Chang'an.
Suddenly, Li Xuan's eyes froze, and in the rain, two figures were walking quickly towards the study with umbrellas.
It was Zhang Da'an and Zhang Hongyu.
Li Xuan hurriedly got up, came to the door, and greeted him: "Gong Zhang, Zhang joins the army, what is so urgent, you can't wait until the rain stops and come." ”
Zhang Da'an looked at Zhang Hongyu, Zhang Hongyue was about to say something, Li Xuan had already taken a step back and said, "Come in first, take a sip of tea." ”
Invite the two to sit down, Li Xuan poured tea in person, Zhang Hongyue took a sip very politely, and then said to Li Xuan: "Lord Wang, the review of Zhuzhou County has been completed, among all the states and counties, the worst achievement is the Northwest Reform County Ling Cui Is, he is completely out of order in the reform of the government, and even almost caused civil unrest. ”
Li Xuan's brows suddenly furrowed, and he asked, "What's the matter, didn't the Cui family send someone to help?" ”
Cui is a very young scholar, born in the Boling Cui clan, very talkative, and quite funny when talking with others.
Li Xuan also met him in person, although he didn't say much, but he could also see that he was of some level, and he was accompanied by several staff.
"The people of the Cui family were injured by the mountain people and fell unconscious." Zhang Hongyu smiled wryly.
"What?" Li Xuan was a little incredulous, and then asked, "What are you going to do if you want to join the army?" ”
"Cui is dismissed." Zhang Hongyu looked at Li Xuan with a solemn face, and said at the same time: "The results of Cuozhou Assassin Shi Zhuang Xuan are also the best because of this matter, but the lower officials think that it is good to reprimand. ”
"That's it, Cui is dismissal, as for Zhuang Xuan, the score record, if there is a recidivism, the two crimes will be accumulated."
"Whoa!"
