Qiao Song's birthday came to a perfect end, but Shizuka was taken back to Yuchi's mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe martial arts world is calm, but there is an undercurrent surging in the court.

Today's weather is good, a farewell to the cold of the previous days, and the sun is shining. Ji Ling's body was already extremely weak, and she was just holding on to her breath, and even the emperor came to visit a few days ago. Ji Ling insisted on coming out to see the sunshine, but Ji Wufeng had no choice but to help him walk around the yard. After only two steps, he sat down in the sun to rest, his old face full of exhaustion.

"Uncle, why do you have to participate in the battle in the court" Ji Wufeng didn't understand a little, originally the officials of the Zhaowen Academy and the well water of the Yingguo Mansion did not interfere with the river water, but now the fight is both defeated.

"There is no wind, the struggle between the warriors is nothing more than fighting with strength, swords facing each other, the winner lives, the loser dies, and the rough is so simple. The struggle between literati is not swords, but it is more dangerous. The court uses power as bait to gather the most astute people in the world, and what you fight for is power. What is the right, a word to determine the life and death of all people, a word to prosper the country and a word to lose the country, this is the right. I have no intention of touching this right, but there is a force of people who must not touch the right to touch the supreme power, and the world will be turned upside down."

"Uncle, then why don't you tell Your Majesty, according to your prestige and status, Your Majesty will definitely obey your words"

"No, no, this matter must not be made public, otherwise all the Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty will be discredited, and I can only secretly borrow the struggle in the court to secretly eliminate this threat"

"Is this force you are talking about the Ying Guogong Martial Arts?" Ji Wufeng asked.

"Yes and no. ”

"Then Shangguan Yi is willing to let you drive?" Even with the friendship between teachers and students, Ji Wufeng still felt that the current Shangguan Yi was too obedient to Ji Ling.

"Every civil and military general who is struggling in the court, their greatest wish is to be a minister, they can't and dare not touch this supreme power, otherwise they will be attacked by a group, but for the power of the government and the opposition is a temptation that everyone can't refuse. You Shao is no exception, he is shrewd and capable, with the help of the resources of Zhaowen Academy, he quickly climbed to the position of the first prime minister, I need to use his strength to complete my plan, and he wants to follow my hand to get rid of the power of Ying Guogong's mansion, if Ying Guogong gets rid of the remaining piece of the court, he can take over naturally" Ji Ling has lived for so long, and he has already seen through the hearts of the people" Between me and him, and between the officials of Zhaowen Academy, in addition to years of friendship between teachers and students, there is also the collusion of these interests"

The weather was good, Ji Ling was in a good mood, and she said a lot.

"It's already, it's already, it's been a long time, it's time to close the net," Ji Ling had a rare smile on her face.

In the palace, Gaozong Li Zhi and Mrs. Wei sang every night, and the news of the queen's fall from grace spread far and wide, quickly spreading throughout the palace, and then Mrs. Wei was even more rampant, and even openly said that the Empress Wu was not virtuous.

Five powers in foreign affairs, five in internal affairs, the emperor in charge of five powers, the queen in charge of five, the queen's power is very large, and the emperor enjoys the same etiquette, out of the same car, in the same seat, becoming the queen is the goal of all concubines. Since Empress Yuan was replaced by Empress Wu, Empress Wu has been sitting in the middle palace for more than ten years, and now a favorite concubine who openly shouts with Empress Wu has jumped out, and everyone is waiting to see how Empress Wu responds.

Empress Wu is known as a virtuous name in the court, Prime Minister Xu Jingzong is recommended by Empress Wu, a few days ago Wu Huaiyun was demoted to the south of Wuling, and reprimanded the brothers of Ying Guogong who came to intercede for personal gain, which suddenly made Empress Wu's reputation great, and some people even made Empress Wu on a par with Empress Dowager Dou of the Han Empire and Empress Changsun of the former dynasty.

The harem was restless, the courtiers attacked each other, and these days were the most unpleasant days since Li Zhi became emperor. He pampered Mrs. Wei Helan's entire harem is known to everyone, he resents the ignorance of Empress Wu, she is already a queen, why can't she be more generous, and go against Helan everywhere, and now because of the handling of the martial brothers, her voice in the court is higher than that of him, who is the emperor, how can he not let him feel resentful, and even seriously moved the idea of abolishing the queen. In addition, Shangguan Yi didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he was against the Yingguo Mansion everywhere, and the two of them had a lot of trouble in the court, plus a Jin Taiyan who added fuel to the fire, he didn't want to go to the court, and when he was irritable, Liu Xi, the eunuch who served the province and the palace stage, suddenly came and said that he had something to report.

The Inner Servant Province was the emperor's close attendant body, which managed the internal affairs of the palace, and was mostly composed of eunuchs, and Liu Xi was one of the six eunuchs of the Inner Servant Province.

"Liu Xi, see what is the matter with me!"

Liu Xi trembled and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, minion.... Minion ....."

"Say whatever you want," Li Zhi shouted irritably.

"Please forgive your majesty, please forgive your majesty" Liu Xi didn't say anything, just kept kowtowing.

"Don't say it again, I'll pull you out and behead you," Li Zhi shouted.

"Your Majesty, the slave found out that Concubine Liu was having an affair with Ying Guogong...."

"What did you say?" Li Zhi looked angry, "You say it again"

"The slave has always been in charge of the affairs in Concubine Liu's palace, and it was discovered a long time ago that Ying Guogong often entered the palace to see Concubine Liu, but because Ying Guogong was very powerful, and the slave had no evidence, so he didn't chew his tongue, but last night Concubine Liu stole out of the palace and went to Ying Guogong's mansion, and didn't return in a hurry until this morning, so the slave dared to come to confess"

"Bastard, Wu Yuanqing, I treat you well, I didn't expect you to treat me like this" Li Zhi, as a man, was naturally furious about such a thing as a green hat.

"Liu Xi, pass on my message, send Concubine Liu to Ganye Temple to become a monk, and let Wu Yuanqing come to the palace"

"Your Majesty, why are you so angry?" a charming voice came.

"Let's go down"

After Liu Xi left, Wei Guo's wife Helan came in lightly dressed and hugged Li Zhi, nephrite was warm and fragrant in her arms, and the angry Li Zhi was relieved a little, and Helan hurriedly pleaded with her uncle Wu Yuanqing to excuse her.

"Your Majesty, my uncle must have been wronged, you can't just listen to Liu Xi's eunuch side," Helan burst into tears as he said it.

"Okay, I will definitely investigate in detail, tomorrow I will personally interrogate Concubine Liu, and after finding out, I will find trouble with Wu Yuanqing"

"It's pretty much the same, the concubine has just learned a new thing," Mrs. Wei said, very coquettishly.

"Yes, let's try it with me!"

A black belt blindfolded Li Zhi's eyes, and since the Lady of Wei Guo entered the palace, such a scene has been appearing in the imperial study.

After Liu Xi left the imperial study, he avoided everyone's gaze, hurried to a deserted palace, looked around and saw that there was no one, quietly pushed open the old palace door, and entered the dark palace.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you have done as you ordered," Liu Xi said.

"Good, good"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if Your Majesty asks at that time, I am afraid that Concubine Liu will have a leak" Liu Xi was full of worry.

"Since there may be a leak, then let her not leak" The man in the dark laughed, "You go back first, don't let anyone see the abnormality"

"Yes!"

In Ji Ling's small courtyard, Shangguan Yi and Zhang Da'an didn't know what to plan in the mansion.

"You Shao, did you say that Concubine Liu quietly went to Ying Guogong's mansion last night?"

"Yes sir, because we have to deal with Ying Guogong, I sent my retainers to keep an eye on Ying Guogong's mansion all the time. Last night, Concubine Liu disguised herself as Yingguo Mansion and left after staying for a short time. The Prince's Mansion has a close relationship with Ying Guogong, I guess it was Concubine Liu who wanted to ask Ying Guogong to recommend her younger brother as a close minister of the Prince's Mansion, in order to hide people's eyes, it is not strange that Concubine Liu disguised herself to the Guogong Mansion late at night, but Concubine Liu was kidnapped after leaving the Ying Guogong Mansion, and she didn't return to the palace in a panic until this morning," Zhang Daan said.

"Coincidentally, this morning Liu Xi of the Inner Servant Province reported to His Majesty that Concubine Liu had an affair with Ying Guogong, and Concubine Liu was beaten into the Ganye Temple, if it wasn't for Mrs. Wei Guo's intercession, I'm afraid Wu Yuanqing would also suffer."

Ji Ling didn't know what she was thinking, "There are people in the DPRK who want to deal with Wu Yuanqing like us, and this person's ability is not small, he can sell Liu Xi"

"Then what should we do now" Zhang Daan said, "Do you want to impeach Wu Yuanqing for having an affair with Concubine Liu and stabbing him to the top"

"No, this will arouse His Majesty's disgust and implicate us in it"

"Although we can't blatantly stab the court, but we can also add fuel to the fire, Concubine Liu is afraid that she will be in trouble, since someone wants to borrow her hand to get rid of Wu Yuanqing, she will definitely not be allowed to live, you send someone to keep an eye on Ganye Temple tonight"

"Do you want to save her?" asked Zhang Da'an.

Ji Ling closed his eyes and didn't speak, Shangguan Yi glared at him, "Sir, let's retire first, you pay more attention to your body"

"Did I say the wrong thing just now?" asked Zhang Da'an cautiously.

"You asked an idiotic question, can't you hear what Mr. means? Sir's trick is high, Jiang is still very old," Shangguan Yi exclaimed

"Brother Shangguan, please dial it," Zhang Daan arched.

"Didn't Mr. say it, add fuel to the fire! Someone wants to splash this basin of dirty water on Wu Yuanqing, Concubine Liu must not be able to speak, so tonight we need to keep an eye on the Ganye Temple, if someone moves to get rid of her, we will secretly follow and quietly find out the identity of the other party, if no one kills Concubine Liu, the people we sent will have another purpose....." Shangguan Yi gave him a look.

"High, high, Wu Yuanqing's basin is detained, this time I see what he still has the ability to" Zhang Daan laughed "After he falls, the people of the martial family will inevitably be unstable, and when the time comes, the position of the general of the Yulin Army controlled by the original martial artist will ......"

"I heard that your son is both civil and military!" These people can't pick out the words when they speak, but everyone knows the hidden meaning under each sentence.

After Shangguan Yi and Zhang Da'an left, Ji Ling looked at the gate of the small courtyard, "Wu Yuanqing, if the Ying Guo Mansion is in a desperate situation, where will you ask for help?
