Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 719 Persuading the disturbance (6)

The reason why this turmoil is so big is that Empress Wu's party is behind the scenes, but there is also a reason for Li Xian's connivance. Who is more important? Now, the result has come out. The answer is really not satisfactory. Even though Li Xian had expected it, but at this moment, he still felt a little depressed. After sitting for a while, this Only then did he wave his hand, signaling Luo Tong to back down by himself.

"Your Highness, it's time to go."

As a counselor and important minister, Zhang Jianzhi is one of the few people in the world who understand Li Xian best. He knows exactly how depressed Li Xian is, but the matter is of great importance. He dare not let Li Xian go on in a daze like this. As soon as Luo Tong retreated, Zhang Jianzhi reminded him from the side.

"Well, come here, prepare the car, and drive the Daming Palace!"

After all, Li Xian is not an ordinary person, a little boredom will not affect his decision, he quickly adjusted his mentality, stood up abruptly, and after a short drink, the East Palace immediately became busy, and after a while, The carriage walked out of the East Palace in a mighty manner, and rushed along the East Street all the way to the Daming Palace on Longshouyuan... "Your Majesty, it's already past noon, please have some food first."

In the bedroom of the Zichen Hall of the Daming Palace, the pale-faced Gaozong was sitting on the couch, covering his sweaty forehead, thinking blankly, but saw a middle-aged eunuch who was in charge of passing on meals leading several people carrying The little eunuch with the food box turned his head out from behind the screen, cautiously approached the couch, and begged in a low voice.

"I don't want to use it, so I quit."

Hearing the sound, Gaozong raised his head in a daze, glanced at the middle-aged eunuch, waved his hand, and scolded impatiently.

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is important, please..."

This is the third time for the middle-aged eunuch to bring someone to deliver meals. The first two times he was kicked out by Gaozong. Even if Gaozong's voice was wrong, he could only bite the bullet and speak out.

"I said no, are you deaf, get out, get out!"

Gaozong was annoyed, how could he have the time to talk to the middle-aged eunuch, before he finished speaking, he stared furiously and cursed mercilessly.

"Your Majesty's anger, Your Majesty's anger..."

Seeing Gaozong's fury, the middle-aged eunuch was terrified immediately, and knelt down on the ground, kowtowing vigorously, but he didn't retreat, obviously he was panicked.

"you……"

When Gaozong saw that he didn't leave, he became more angry, and he suddenly got up, and he was about to explode.

"The Empress is here!"

Seeing that the middle-aged eunuch was going to be in bad luck, there was a shout outside the bedroom, but he saw Empress Wu leading a group of court ladies and eunuchs turning out from behind the screen, Gaozong felt bad for seeing this While using that middle-aged eunuch as a trick, he just waved his hand impatiently at him and drove him aside, but he took a step forward to meet the graceful Empress Wu.

"The concubine kowtows to His Majesty."

Although Empress Wu had just returned, she had many eyes and ears, and she knew everything that happened in the palace, but she didn't ask Gaozong's urgent summoning purpose, but blessed him in a proper manner. blessing.

"It's good that Mei Niang is here, it's good that you're here, you all stand down!"

Gaozong has always been a person without big ideas, and he relied on Empress Wu to help him make big decisions for most of his life. Now that Empress Wu had arrived, his tense heart immediately eased, and he bent down to help Empress Wu up. He muttered twice, then sipped in a high-pitched voice.

"promise!"

After Gaozong had spoken, all the people dared not neglect, they all bowed their promises, and all left the bedroom, leaving Empress Wu and Gaozong alone.

"Your Majesty, what happened and who made you so angry?"

After everyone retreated, Empress Wu gently supported Gaozong's arm, and led him to the couch. After waiting for Gaozong to take his seat, she asked softly.

"Well, this matter is strange to say, um, let's put it this way, this morning, the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall came to see me, saying that many ministers and workers in the court wrote this chapter, suggesting that Xian'er supervise the country, and I was troubled I was caught off guard and had no choice but to ask the Zhengshitang to draw up an order first, alas, look at what happened, Mei Niang, my body has been sick all these years, and it's all because of you to support the court, I'm really sorry..."

Looking at the gentle smile on Empress Wu's face, Gao Zong felt a sense of apology for no reason, and babbled on, not only intended to appease, but also slightly revealed his intention to let Li Xian supervise the country. .

"Your Majesty, please don't say that. Your concubine and your majesty are one. It's the concubine's fortune to be able to share your majesty's worries. It's worth it."

Empress Wu is such a shrewd person, she guessed what Gao Zong was thinking when she heard Gao Zong's words, since she refused to let Gao Zong fully express that meaning, her eyes turned red and she pretended Reaching out his hand to cover Gaozong's mouth in gratitude, he expressed his attitude tenderly.

"Well, I admire Mei Niang's kindness, it's just that you have worked hard."

Seeing what Empress Wu said, Gaozong's sense of apology deepened immediately. He stretched out his hand to hold Empress Wu's hand covering his mouth, looked at Empress Wu affectionately, and said apologetically.

"As long as His Majesty understands the heart of the courtier and concubine, it is enough for those who can benefit the country. The courtier and concubine don't mind, but..."

The purpose of empress Wu's pretentiousness is to arouse the guilt in Gaozong's heart. Now that he has won, he will not let go of the great opportunity to take advantage of the organization to trap Li Xian, but he is very rational not to complete the sentence , deliberately made a look of embarrassment.

"Huh? Is there any embarrassment for Meiniang? Let me tell you, but if I can do it, I will definitely decide for Meiniang."

Gaozong was still immersed in the gentle atmosphere specially created by Empress Wu. Seeing Empress Wu, he seemed to have something to hide. Under the influence of guilt, he would not think too much about other matters, and asked questions in a hurry road.

"Your Majesty, this incident is so big and violent, there may be some reason for it, alas, it's all the fault of the ministers and concubines, who only want to help His Majesty share his worries, but never want to make anyone unhappy , This is really a concubine, a concubine..."

What Empress Wu was waiting for was obviously Gaozong's question, and the more he talked about it, the more wronged he became, and at the end, he wept sadly, as if he had really been wronged by the sky.

"This... no way, Xianer is not this kind of person, this is impossible, how is this possible? This..."

Hearing what Empress Wu said, Gaozong was taken aback for a moment, then straightened his back with a face full of shock and anger, but soon relaxed again, and murmured palely.

Seeing Gaozong's shocked face, Empress Wu's eyes immediately flashed a glimmer of self-satisfaction, but she didn't say anything more, but pretended to be pitiful, silently Weeping on the ground, this is the brilliance of Empress Wu, but at this time Gaozong was already suspicious, if she interjected, it would only divert Gaozong's attention in vain, or even suspect Empress Wu. If he didn't say a word, Gaozong would only dig deeper and deeper into the horns. Even if Li Xian didn't get angry at that time, but with such a thorn in his heart, Gaozong would suppress Li Xian sooner or later, and this, It was exactly what Empress Wu wanted to achieve.

"A bunch of bastards, come here!"

The more Gao Zong thought about it, the more flustered he became, because he was too aware of Li Xian's abilities. He had people under his command, who wanted money and had money, and had a lot of military power. If there is another "Xuanwumen Incident", Gaozong would not have the face to meet his ancestors. He was in a state of confusion when there was a sudden noise outside, which made Gaozong immediately Zong was furious, and after cursing hatefully, he raised his voice and yelled.

"The old slave is here!"

When Gaozong yelled like this, the outsiders dared not neglect to go, and immediately saw Cheng Denggao rushing in from outside in great panic, hurried to get closer, and replied with a trembling voice.

"What's going on? Say, what a mess, huh?"

Gao Zong was already anxious, but when he saw Cheng Denggao's panic-stricken state, he became even more annoyed, and he roared with a dark face.

"Returning to His Majesty, the Crown Prince has come down and said he wants to see His Majesty. The old servants cannot stop him, His Royal Highness, he, he..."

This time, Cheng Denggao obeyed Empress Wu's secret order to cut off the connection between the internal and external bans, in order to prevent Li Xian or ministers close to Li Xian from coming to disrupt the situation. As expected, Li Xian arrived shortly after Empress Wu arrived. Cheng Denggao naturally refused to pass it on, and asked the eunuch below to go to the palace gate to perfunctory, trying to block Li Xian out. Although the calculation was good, it was a pity that Li Xian did not He didn't listen to his instructions, and after waiting for less than a cup of tea, he broke into the palace brazenly, ignoring the obstruction of the eunuchs at the palace gate, and went straight to the outside of the Zichen Palace, and Cheng Denggao was so shocked that he had to He led a group of eunuchs to stop the incident, and when the incident started, the noise was not small. When Gaozong got angry, he knew that the matter could not be covered up, and Cheng Deng was so panicked that he couldn't even speak. I can't tell.

"What's wrong with Xian'er, tell me, tell me quickly! Are you really going to piss me off, eh!"

Seeing Cheng Denggao stuttering there, Gaozong was so angry and angry that he couldn't bear it anymore, he suddenly got up and asked angrily.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insists on seeing you, but this old servant has no choice but to barge in now. This old servant is incompetent, this old servant deserves to die!"

When Cheng Denggao was flustered, he suddenly saw Empress Wu gave him a look, and immediately took the opportunity to tell Li Xian a trick.

"Ah, this..."

When he heard that Li Xian broke into the palace, Gao Zong was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.
