Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 205 Good News

The majestic and solemn Linde Hall stands majestically in the middle of Shangyang Palace Square, and the fiery red sun spreads over the roof of the hall, reflecting the entire hall in golden yellow.

The carved beams and painted buildings, the flying eaves and brackets, the intrigue, and the layers connected together make the core hall of Shangyang Palace even more majestic and abrupt.

In the daytime of the Lantern Festival, under the white jade dragon danzhan, the military ministers dressed in imperial attire lined up in two chambers. The literary class was headed by Prime Minister Di Renjie, and the martial arts class was headed by Li Changhe, the servant of the Ministry of War. All the ministers waited quietly for the call.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" Jingyang Zhong's long and deep voice sounded.

Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of heart-pounding whispers of the earth-shattering trombone.

With the sound of bells and chimes, and the ceremonies and music playing, a servant from the Huangmen walked out of the hall quickly, and praised in a long voice: "The feast of the grand dynasty celebration has begun! Ministers of civil and military affairs, enter the hall according to the shift!"

Under the leadership of Di Renjie, Zhang Jianzhi and other prime ministers, all the ministers lifted their purple robes and walked slowly up the stone steps to the main hall.

In the hall, the sonorous and powerful rituals and music of the dynasty reverberated.

All the ministers filed in, stood according to the banquet seats, facing the dragon chair.

All of a sudden, the sound of bells and chimes rang loudly, and with the support of the servants and female officials, Wu Zetian slowly climbed up to the Dragon Palace and sat on the dragon chair.

It could be seen that she was in a very good mood today, and she still couldn't hide her inner joy under her solemn expression.

All the ministers knelt down and chanted in unison: "The ministers and others congratulate Your Majesty on the unity of the world, the surrender of the barbarians, and the eternal glory of the emperor! Long live, long live, long live!"

A smile appeared on Wu Zetian's face:
"All the gentlemen are flat."

All the ministers stood up.

Wu Zetian said, "Since I came to the throne, I have been loved by the heavens, the world is peaceful, the world is peaceful, the white ring is presented to the west, and the arrows come from the east. Only the Khitan Li is loyal to his ambition, refuses to accept the king's transformation, and rashly uses his axe.

However, the ministers of the guards of the Lai court are tireless inside, and the loyal men forget about themselves outside. It is really my luck and the luck of the world to be able to defeat the Czech enemy! "

All the ministers praised in unison: "It is His Majesty's martial arts to fight against the might of the emperor! Long live, long live, long live!"

Wu Zetian smiled and said: "It's the Lantern Festival, and it's also the time when the frontlines are playing victories. It's really double happiness. I'm very relieved. Because this celebration banquet is set up, one is to reward military achievements, and the other is to celebrate with the whole world!"

All the ministers knelt down and shouted long live.

Wu Zetian bestowed a seat like a ritual, and the ceremonial officer sang loudly: "My lords, take your seat!"

The ministers got up and took their seats.

Wu Zetian said: "Chuan Shan!"

With one order, the etiquette and music were in full swing, and the palm guards of Honglu Temple rushed to the table with the delicacies and wines that had been prepared.

Wu Zetian raised the glass of wine in front of him and said with a smile, "This is the first cup of wine. I respect the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles in front of me. I respect the Great General Wang Xiaojie of Weiwei and Zhao Wenhui, the Governor of Yingzhou! I respect Li Changhe, Minister of the Ministry of War, and all the dear friends present here!"

All the ministers raised wine and toasted together: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Changhe stood up, knelt down on both knees, and held up the wine glass: "I am so terrified!"

Wu Zetian raised his toast and drank it all in one gulp.

All the ministers also drank the wine in the cup.

Wu Zetian held up the second cup of wine: "This second cup of wine, I will spend the New Year's Eve with all the gentlemen."

After finishing speaking, she drank the wine in one gulp.

The ministers complied.

Wu Zetian pressed down the third cup of wine and said with a smile, "This is the third cup..."

As she spoke, she looked at the ministers.

All the ministers watched her silently.

Wu Zetian said with a smile: "Just wait for the good news ahead, and drink this cup with all the ministers!"

All the ministers laughed knowingly, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed, and everyone whispered to each other and started talking with low-pitched laughter.

Wu Zetian looked at the time and asked Li Changhe, "Changhe, it should be here soon, right?"

Li Changhe smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, we will be there immediately."

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a loud singing outside the hall: "Your Majesty, the emergency pond newspaper for six hundred miles in Chongzhou is now outside the hall!"

The hall suddenly fell silent.

A smile bloomed on Wu Zetian's face: "The good news is here! Announce!"

The servant of the Huangmen rushed into the hall, holding up the pond newspaper with both hands.

A female official took it, and walked quickly to His Majesty to present it to Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian opened the pond newspaper.

For a moment, all eyes were on her face.

Di Renjie looked at her quietly, Li Changhe looked at her, Zhang Jianzhi looked at her.

Wu Zetian quickly read the pond newspaper, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

Di Renjie took a deep breath, and tightly clenched the wine cup.

Zhang Jianzhi looked at him inquiringly, and Di Renjie shook his head slowly.

Wu Zetian's complexion changed, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, his facial muscles twitched non-stop, his hands trembled more and more violently, and gradually, he seemed to be unable to control it...

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound in the silence, and the pond newspaper fell to the ground.

All the ministers let out a low cry and stood up one after another.

Zhang Jianzhi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Di Renjie stopped him with a wink.

For a moment, the hall was so quiet that the sound of breathing could be heard.

The muscles on Wu Zetian's face twitched in various ways, as if she was crying or laughing. Such an expression is simply indescribable.

Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and grabbed the wine cup in front of her tightly, as if grabbing a life-saving straw. It could be seen that she was desperately suppressing her emotions.

The hand holding the wine cup shook more and more violently, so that all the wine in the cup was shaken out and spilled on the hands.

The faces of the ministers changed from worry to fear, and from fear to panic. They had never seen such a powerful female emperor's expression.

The hall was terribly quiet, as if even the sound of breathing had stopped.

Suddenly, Wu Zetian let out a burst of laughter, the laughter was like the howling of owls in the middle of the night, some whimpered, some trembled, so that the bodies of all the ministers trembled uncontrollably at the moment of laughter.

When all eyes focused on Emperor Wu Zetian on Danzhan again, the officials were surprised to find that the haze on her face was swept away, and the color of joy filled her cheeks. Three cups of wine, respect to the soldiers who died on the front line!"

All the ministers were stunned, looking at the emperor's expression and the wine cup in her hand, those ministers who were usually good at guessing the holy meaning finally understood that the emperor had made a joke with everyone, and the atmosphere in the hall immediately relaxed.

Wu Zetian raised his toast and drank it all in one gulp.

All the ministers let out a long breath, and after thanking them, they raised their wine cups and drank them all in one gulp.

In an instant, laughter and laughter resumed in the hall, except for one person, that is Di Renjie, who looked at Wu Zetian quietly.

Wu Zetian smiled all over his face, put down the wine and said, "Your gentlemen, enjoy yourself to the fullest, I am too strong to drink, so let's go and take a rest for a while."

All the ministers stood up and sang: "Respectfully send off Your Majesty!"

Wu Zetian stood up and walked towards Danzhan, tripped and swayed, the female officer next to her immediately supported her.

Soon, a group of people walked down Danzhan quickly and disappeared into Houzai gate.

Di Renjie slowly picked up the wine toast, his hands trembling a little.

Zhang Jianzhi walked to his side: "Brother Huaiying, something is wrong!"

Di Renjie raised his head: "As expected!"

Zhang Jianyi was stunned: "What?"

Di Renjie hissed lightly, but did not speak.

He pouted in front of him, Zhang Jianzhi turned his head, and saw Li Changhe standing in front of the two with a terrified expression: "You two elders, this, this is not right..."

Di Renjie stood up slowly: "Master Li, what is going on with this pond newspaper?"

Li Changhe stammered and said: "I haven't read it, I just sent a letter to Wang Xiaojie of Chongzhou, ordering him to show victory on Yuanxi."

Di Renjie let out a long sigh: "Presenting the victory... Originally, this pond retribution first went to the Ministry of War, then to the Ministry of Cabinet, and finally to the emperor, but... Your Majesty is too impatient and needs this victory too much!"

Li Changhe said anxiously: "Old Di Ge, can I trouble you to go inside and find out what's going on."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and an internal servant rushed over: "Old Di Ge, the emperor has summoned you."

Di Renjie nodded.

Li Changhe said in a low voice: "Please tell me you are old!"

Di Renjie walked in quickly.
