Long live Emperor Wu!

Princess Gaoyang held her own shawl in her hand, sneered and said:

"Then you can find a way to make it up. I'll be waiting for you below. Don't forget to tell me how you died."

She said it with such certainty, her eyes vicious and sharp, like a curse.

Changsun Wuji's eyelids trembled for a moment, but he soon returned to normal. He stood up from his seat and walked out with his head held high.

When a person commits suicide, it is inappropriate for others to watch.

Except for Gao Yang himself, there was no one else in the room.

She raised her hand and looked at the shawl in her hand.

The texture of the silk is very good, as soft as a cloud, yet tough and smooth. She used to love this material so much that she would always play with it in her hands.

Who would have thought that this thing could be used to hang yourself? What bad luck.

She frowned and recalled her past life, including regrets and happiness.

However, apart from the fact that she had too high hopes for Fang Yiai at the beginning and was hit in the head later, there didn't seem to be any great pain or regret.

She has lived enough in this life, and I hope that I can be a morally responsible man in the next life, so that she will not have to be wronged, and will not let her other half be wronged.

Fairest.

She looked up at the beams, then looked around, and finally stared at Changsun Wuji's table and climbed up...

……

……

Taiji Palace, Wude Hall.

On the emperor's desk, there was a thick stack of case files spread out, as well as confessions, all about Fang Yiai's rebellion.

Li Shan put one hand on the table and kept supporting his forehead with his hand, looking at Changsun Wuji who was sitting next to him with almost hatred in his eyes.

Changsun Wuji felt his gaze, raised his eyes and looked at each other for a moment, then quickly lowered his eyes, but his face was still dull and calm, without any guilt at all.

Li Shan looked at him, moved his arm, and loosened the page on the file, and asked in a cold voice:

"Gao Yang, committing suicide out of fear of crime?"

Changsun Wuji stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said:

"Yes, it's clearly written in this file... It's because the old minister failed to supervise me well, please punish me."

Li Shan suddenly became angry, and suddenly put down the hand that was supporting his forehead, and banged it on the table with a "dong" sound, and said:

"Do you think I'm a fool?! Or do you think Gao Yang is a fool?! Gao Yang and Fang Yiai don't get along. She will help Fang Yiai plot rebellion and make suggestions for him to win over people?!"

Changsun Wuji said calmly:

"Princess Gaoyang's behavior has always been absurd and unreasonable, and everyone knows it. Your Majesty also said that she is afraid that the world will not be in chaos.

Then it makes sense for her to do such inexplicable things. "

Li Shan frowned slightly and asked:

"What about the others?... These criminal evidences are all based on Fang Yiai's confession, and there are many who have relatives and friends with the Fang family!

It even includes my two uncles, one aunt, two sisters, and King Wu Li Ke! But actually? Except for his and Xue Wanche's signatures and seals, there is no substantive evidence from anyone else! "

Changsun Wuji lowered his head, bit his cheek, and said in a deep voice;

“Rebellion is a serious crime against the Nine Clan, so one must be extremely careful in planning, as there cannot be a lot of written evidence.

And unless there has been a sword fight, it is difficult to have substantial evidence.

However, according to the words of the servants of the Fang family, they can be corroborated with the testimony of Fang Yiai. This is the case. Your Majesty, please be clear. ” ˆ ˆ Li Shan knew then that when he put all the investigation materials in front of him, he was ready to accept all questions.

Therefore, all doubts have a "reasonable" explanation.

Li Shan lowered his eyes, his slightly frowning brow showing impatience and boredom. He then stood up from behind the desk, walked around to the front, and stood face to face with Changsun Wuji.

He changed his strategy and whispered:

"Uncle! Since you are willing to cover up for the fourth brother, you have raised your hand again and don't expand the rebellion case to this point... almost poaching half of the Li Tang royal family! If the case is handled like this, wouldn't it be a good match? Am I unpopular?! What have I done that is so outrageous that I deserve to be betrayed like this?"

Changsun Wuji raised his eyes leisurely, with a thin face, he raised his eyes to look at Li Shan, his eye sockets became deeper and deeper, with a hint of staring, and said:

"Isn't it alarming, Your Majesty? The Fang family alone has connected with most of the Li Tang royal family, most of whom are powerful and prestigious.

Your Majesty asked the old minister to let them go at this time. Have you ever thought that you are letting go of a big threat? "

He bit the word "big" deeply, but Li Shan turned his head slightly, changed the headband on his shoulders, and said with an extremely incredible expression:

"When I said I would let Fourth Brother go, why didn't you say so? When it comes to threats, he is the source of all threats."

Unexpectedly, Changsun Wuji turned his army around and said directly:

"Then your Majesty will deal with him as well. I support it."

Li Shan's throat was constricted, his clear eyes flickered, and he was anxious, but he could no longer say anything.

At this time, an urgent announcement came from outside. Before the words could be heard, Wu Rou had already entered the palace.

Wu Rou wore second-grade Zhaoyi's clothes, with a silk draped over her arms and shoulders. She looked dignified, but walked with a wind in her eyes. She walked around Changsun Wuji twice.

Changsun Wuji lowered his eyes arrogantly and coldly. Seeing the tail end of her silk robe swinging in front of his eyes, he couldn't help but think of Gao Yang's suicide. He frowned in disgust and said:

"Wu Zhaoyi, His Majesty and I are discussing important matters of the court. It is inappropriate for you to come in without permission at this time."

Wu Rou suppressed the anger in her heart and tried her best to calm herself down. She turned to Li Shan and asked:

"Your Majesty, do you agree to my coming in?"

Li Shan lowered his eyes and responded lightly:

"agree."

Changsun Wuji felt extremely unhappy when he saw his nephew teaming up with Wu Rou to deal with him, and his face turned obviously dark.

Wu Rou smiled lukewarmly and said:

"Master Zhangsun, please don't get angry in a hurry. I came here just to ask, how did Princess Gaoyang die?"

Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji turned his eyes, looked straight at her, and said:

"The investigation file has just been placed on His Majesty's desk, and Wu Zhaoyi in the harem already knows the contents.

It seems that there are many informants around His Majesty. Their hands and eyes are all over the sky. What a great trick. "

Wu Rou couldn't help but rolled her eyes at this moment:

"Ha! Master Zhangsun made the wrong instigation. Thanks to your Majesty, I want to know the news through Your Majesty. The day lilies have gone cold for a long time. Someone outside the palace told me."

She changed her voice, stared at Changsun Wuji with her eyes that were born with resentment, and asked again:

"Princess Gaoyang, how did she die?"

"He committed suicide. If Wu Zhaoyi doesn't believe it, he can send someone to do an autopsy." Changsun Wuji was very calm.

"But when I went to Dali Temple to see her yesterday, she was still fine! And she told me personally that she didn't know about Fang Yiai's rebellion. What do you say?"

Changsun Wuji frowned, seeming a little surprised, but he quickly said:

"How can a person who conspired rebellion admit it so easily? Of course, after interrogation and finding out that there was no defense, he confessed and committed suicide out of fear of guilt."
