Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 773 Pick up the Butcher Knife
"His Royal Highness Qi ordered that all the eight gates of the palace city be sealed off and only allowed to enter but not to exit!"

Qin Shaoyu stood in front of the palace gate with a horizontal knife in his hand, and then with a big wave of his hand, the whole palace gate was slowly closed. A group of palace people showed terrified expressions, and those military officers who were loyal to Wu Meiniang wanted to fight back.

"Is King Qi's order greater than His Majesty's imperial decree?"

Seeing the palace gate closed, a military officer who didn't go in shouted loudly.

Qin Shaoyu rolled his eyes coldly, looked at the military officer and said with a smile: "I don't know if King Qi's Jun Order is bigger than the imperial decree, but what I will know is that if you dare to resist Qi King's Jun Order now, you will be killed." It can kill you directly.

If you don’t dare to resist now, you can also go to any place in Datang to ask for help, Jinwu Guard, Left Guard, Right Guard can all be used. You can go and see if they dare to disobey King Qi’s order. "

Those words made the military officer dare not move.

Qin Shaoyu sneered: "Close the door...!" followed by the palace gate slowly falling down.

At the same time, in the Daming Palace, Li You sat on the main seat, and Li Zhi and Wu Zetian sat beside him. At this time, Li Zhi was crying uncontrollably, and Wu Zetian was also in tears.

There were many people kneeling in the hall, Queen Wang, Concubine Xiao Shu, and a lot of palace people related to this matter, Li You wanted to confront them face to face here.

However, the case of the death of the imperial daughter was not recorded in the history books.

And there are many unofficial historical records that Wu Zetian actually killed the princess. Li You didn't know whether Wu Zetian killed the princess or Wu Zetian framed her.

In fact, Li You didn't want to believe that Wu Zetian killed the imperial daughter herself. After all, she was his own daughter. However, if he just reasoned how this woman got such a murderous hand from the heart of a mother, then Wu Zetian would not be able to become her. She is the only empress in Chinese history, so she will not be able to become a demon in the human world and the Buddha world.

Under the joint attack of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu at that time, Wu Zetian felt that she could not back down, but she had to keep her vested interests and obtain more benefits.Under such circumstances, unless the palace conspiracy is used to set the blame on the opponent, the goal can be achieved.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to step on the young corpse of his own daughter, otherwise it would be difficult to move forward to a higher position.Ten years of being neglected in the imperial palace and her profound understanding of Mahayana Buddhism have wiped out her original code of conduct. The experience of having an affair with the prince and having a child with a nun made her feel that keeping her own place and resigning herself to fate can only be slaughtered by others. lamb.

Although she is deeply favored by Emperor Gaozong now, she cannot be under others for a long time, not to mention that the love and affection between Emperor Gaozong and Queen Wang who have been married for more than ten years is not easy to cut off, she can only plan this bad plan, In order to completely break the relationship between them, this is the most unreasonable and reasonable.

But if it is true, then Wu Zetian herself paid a painful price, because she personally ruined the little life of her beloved eldest daughter.

After Li You glanced at Wu Zetian next to him, the long interrogation began. Di Renjie was also transferred to the palace urgently, and the interrogation lasted for three days, but all the interrogation results had problems.

That is, no one saw the Queen directly or indirectly attacking the princess. On the contrary, many palace officials could testify that the Queen loved the little princess very much, and the matter fell into a stalemate.

Li You also wanted to open a way for Wu Zetian, but Wu Zetian always missed his beloved daughter with Li Zhi. If Li You expressed his doubts, Li You was worried that Li Zhi would not be able to bear it.

Three days later, the gates of the palace in Chang'an were opened. Unfortunately, no one knew the outcome of the emperor's death. Li You didn't say anything, and neither did the emperor. Soon the emperor's funeral was carried out with the ceremony of a princess.

The sky in Chang'an was cloudy and rainy that day, and there was no evidence to prove that it was the Queen Wang who did it, and there was no evidence that it was Wu Meiniang who did it, but if this was the case, Li You probably felt that it was Wu Meiniang who did it. This is very good, but Li Yu had only one thought.

In the end, the case of the princess's death was still unresolved, because the case was settled, Wu Zetian was still in the palace for a while, because Wu Zetian wanted to use this case to crucify the queen, but in the end Li You unexpectedly Queen Wang was not declared guilty.

This was something Wu Zetian couldn't bear, and Changsun Wuji and others breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, Changsun Wuji's veteran party always thought that the queen was going to die this time, but who knew, the final conclusion was that I can't tell. If others can't tell, Li Zhi will be furious and ask for another person to investigate thoroughly, but this time it is Li You who is qualitative.

Who is Li You? That's Li Zhi's fifth elder brother. Li You personally ordered that the case could not be clarified, so no one would dare to conduct a thorough investigation again. The crisis of Queen Wang was resolved.

It's just that this incident caused a series of kills to Queen Wang. First of all, Li Zhi no longer believed in Queen Wang, and Li Zhi was happy to devote himself to abolishing the Queen, which was not good for Queen Wang.

And Wu Zetian was also in a terrible state of shock.

The Ci'en Temple and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the temple were specially built by Li Zhi when he was the prince, in memory of his mother, Empress Changsun.When his mother died, Li Zhi was still a child, so he still misses his mother very much.Later, Emperor Taizong arranged for Master Xuanzang to translate scriptures here, making it the most prosperous temple in Chang'an.

Under the cover of pines and cypresses, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, accompanied by Xuanzang, climbed the tower slowly, looked at the Buddha statues and scriptures in the tower, and then walked into the Daxiong Palace, where they worshiped one by one.

Wu Zetian knew that this is the only place in the world that is pure, except for the occasional sound of bells and chimes, there will only be strands of continuous worship incense.Here you can be pure and ascetic, and no longer think of fighting and fighting. This is the best place to escape the sins of human beings.

However, when Wu Zetian knelt down in front of the Buddha statue, what she thought of was sin. While burning incense and kowtow, she silently justified the sin she was about to commit in her heart.

She told the Buddha what she did, everything was destiny, out of necessity, she didn't want to hurt anyone, but if she didn't kill anyone, she would be killed, so she had no choice.

Everything in the palace is fragile and precarious. Only by sacrificing one's life and giving to tigers in the Buddhist scriptures can the Buddha body be fulfilled.Only by sacrificing her young life can she be protected from seeing blood again.

She begged the Buddha for forgiveness, for the blessing of the Buddha, and for the accomplishment of her.The pious kneeling and inner repentance made Wu Zetian completely get rid of the sense of guilt for the plot to be carried out, and gained psychological peace and balance. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda made of gray bricks was piercing straight into the light blue sky, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She wants to hold a butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately.
