Chapter 1258

Although Chen Qiao didn't say a word, after seeing Chen Qiao's appearance, Li Zhi naturally felt at ease.

Changsun Wuji's eyes turned back and forth on the two of them, and after thinking about it secretly, he rolled his eyes. Although he didn't know why Chen Qiao wanted to help Li Zhi, since the matter had come to this point, he would There is no way out anymore.

"His Majesty."

Chen Qiao followed the voice, and saw that the person who spoke was not Changsun Wuji, but another fifth-rank official. It seemed that Changsun Wuji was kind to this fifth-rank official, so after so many years, this Officials have always been considered Changsun Wuji's henchmen.

"What's the matter?"

Li Zhi obviously knew the identity of this person, and couldn't help frowning after seeing him come out.

"Your Majesty, the new year is over now, and I beg your majesty to extend the succession for the country and the country as soon as possible!" This official came from the Ministry of Rites, so the words in his mouth naturally had to be related to the Ministry of Rites.

"Oh? I didn't know when Wang Aiqing became so interested in my private affairs?" Li Zhi squinted his eyes and tilted his head to look at the official who seemed to be speaking very righteously.

The official whom Li Zhi called "Wang Aiqing" was not moved at all, still standing upright, looking at Li Zhi seriously.

"Your Majesty has no family affairs, let alone personal affairs." The official continued.

Looking at this subordinate who looked like a stinky and hard stone in a hut, Minister of Rites almost burst into tears. He never thought that this subordinate who seemed the most smooth and sophisticated on weekdays would actually do something today. Let's do something like this again.

"What? Is it possible that in your eyes, I am a person who can't even decide what to eat, drink, and sleep?" Li Zhi almost laughed angrily at this person's shocking argument.

The official didn't seem to have expected that His Majesty would say such a vulgar remark, and almost forgot at the same time what they were fighting for today.

The steadfast imperial party was naturally very proud after Li Zhi said this, and even Li Zhi himself was very satisfied with his surprise.

Changsun Wuji just put his hands in his sleeves and stood in his position with his eyes closed. At this moment, no one knew what he was thinking.

Chen Qiao would take a look at Changsun Wuji from time to time, but it was just a superficial glance, not too deliberate.

"Your Majesty is holy," an official from Changsun Wuji's faction stepped out of the queue, and the visitor stood very tall. He walked slowly to the side of the official surnamed Wang, bent his knees and knelt down, "The emperor's private affairs It is state affairs, and the ministers and others speak lightly, but they have never thought of eating a vegetarian meal in the corpse."

"well said."

Li Zhi propped up one chin and looked at the official with interest. He looked very young, and his green robe was not conspicuous in the hall at first, and before that, no one knew that this always taciturn man The man actually belonged to Changsun Wuji's faction.

"I didn't know that Aiqing was so concerned about the country and the people." Li Zhi said meaningfully.

The official was unmoved, and still knelt on the ground with his head bowed.

Afterwards, a few more officials came out, some to continue to support the former two, and some stood at Li Zhi's side and spoke for Li Zhi by citing scriptures.

Neither of the two parties could persuade the other, and as the debate in the court gradually became fierce, Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Empress Wu seduces the lord, Your Majesty must not disregard the family law of the ancestors for such a witch!"

Suddenly, a purple-robed official fell to the ground with a loud cry, and even Changsun Wuji thought that someone would blatantly say what was in his heart.

However, this person was not appointed by Changsun Wuji, but by Chen Qiao.

"presumptuous!"

After the man's words fell, Li Zhi was really furious, and immediately ordered someone to drag the purple-robed official down.

"This world belongs to the people of the world, and His Majesty is not allowed to act arbitrarily!"

Although Habayashi Army had already grabbed his arms, the man still didn't stop talking, instead he yelled louder.

When passing Changsun Wuji, the official suddenly broke away from the two Habayashi soldiers, walked up to Changsun Wuji a few steps, and shouted: "Changsun Situ, save Your Majesty! Save this country!"

After Changsun Wuji was pulled by the man's clothes, he was also at a loss, but when he finally broke free from the man's hand and looked at Li Zhi again, he saw that Li Zhi's gaze towards him had changed. Extraordinarily gloomy.

"Your Majesty, old minister—"

"It turns out that the eldest grandson Situ is the sage in the eyes of the officials." Li Zhi said a word in a cool voice.

Changsun Wuji only felt that his eyes were darkened, and he just wanted to stuff one or two women into Li Zhi's harem before, when did he have such a conspiracy?
"Your Majesty's lesson! I definitely don't have this intention. Before today, I never had any personal relationship with Feng Shangshu." Changsun Wuji said loudly.

But after witnessing the scene just now, except for those who are loyal to Changsun Wuji, the other courtiers have begun to doubt whether this high-ranking Situ really has a second heart for His Majesty today.

"Your Majesty!" Changsun Wuji took a step forward earnestly, looked straight at Chen Qiao who was sitting on the dragon chair, and said, "I beg Your Majesty to learn from you!"

Standing aside, Chen Qiao was still just standing aside, whether it was the eyes of the people around him or Li Zhi on the dragon chair, he acted as if he didn't see it, but seemed to suddenly look at the piece on the sole of his foot. Rugs generate unparalleled interest.

In fact, the purple-robed official was not from Changsun Wuji, but from Chen Qiao. Chen Qiao knew that no matter how much evidence was presented to Li Zhi, the king who had just ascended the throne would not seriously think that Changsun Wuji The taboo is to rebel.

Even Changsun Wuji's words and deeds now have exceeded the standard of being a minister.

Li Zhi was not stupid, on the contrary, he was very smart, so it didn't take him a moment to figure out why Chen Qiao made such an arrangement.

"Oh? Has the grandson Situ never disobeyed me?" Li Zhi asked with a half-smile.

Changsun Wuji choked up, of course he knew what Li Zhi meant. Changsun Wuji, who was also very smart, finally understood why such a person appeared out of nowhere just now.

"His Majesty……"

Even with Chen Qiao's support, Changsun Wuji never thought that Li Zhigan would really tear himself apart.

But at this moment, after his gaze caught sight of the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, he finally understood that this once gentle and honest boy had become an ambitious emperor, and he would never tolerate any Someone who disobeys him or runs counter to what he thinks and thinks.

What Li Zhi does today is not only for Wu Zetian, but more for his own authority.

Changsun Wuji's gaze gradually became complicated. The cowardly and helpless boy who used to be helpless has finally grown up...

"Eldest grandson Situ, is there anything else you want to say to me?"

Li Zhi's eyes met Changsun Wuji's, and his eyes fell heavily on Changsun Wuji, and he never thought that he would really fight with Changsun Wuji to the point of death.

"The old minister has nothing to say."

After staring at each other for a long time, Changsun Wuji finally chose to take a step back. He was already an old horse and could no longer compete with Li Zhi and Chen Qiao.

In other words, he was never Chen Qiao's opponent.
