Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 791
That night, Wu Zetian started her deployment. This time Wu Zetian really took out all the things she had kept in the bottom of the box, and Wu Zetian also recalled all her plum blossom inner guards.

This inner guard of plum blossoms is Wu Zetian's trump card. Many people have passed on the inner guards of plum blossoms. They say that Wu Zetian seeks power and seizes the throne. She is naturally afraid that someone will assassinate herself or rebel, so she established a team called plum blossoms. The inner guard is equivalent to an intelligence bureau.

This plum blossom inner guard once scared Di Renjie to the wall.

Each of the plum blossom internal guards has high martial arts skills and strong execution ability.They also have a plum blossom seal engraved on their left arms to prove that they are one of them.

The above are all exaggerated stories. In fact, the real inner guards of plum blossoms are a group of maids and eunuchs. These people are Wu Zetian’s real inner guards. To kill Li You.

Early the next morning, Li Zhi suddenly announced the morning court, and this morning court is different from the past, that is, the queen will also take pity on the hearing. Many people think that listening to politics behind the curtain is the first for Li Zhi to open for Wu Zetian. Wendi Yang Jian opened it. Before the Tang Dynasty, women had a higher status, and the society was more tolerant of women. It is known as the tradition of housewives in charge of the house.

For example, Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, set such a precedent.

Yang Jian was a very capable emperor in Chinese history. However, he was very accommodating to his queen. He was the first to take part in politics and seize power. As far as the pavilion is concerned, the eunuch is ordered to stand beside Emperor Wen, and to report any movement or movement at any time.

When Emperor Wen retired from the imperial court, the empress would definitely greet him personally. They would drive back together and discuss political affairs together. They were sometimes called the two saints.

The reason why Li Zhi agreed to Wu Zetian's request to listen to politics behind a curtain was probably because of the precedent in the previous dynasty. In the eyes of people at the time, it was no surprise that Wu Zetian listened to politics behind a curtain, because of the background and social atmosphere at that time.

Today Li Zhi's Wu Zetian listened to politics behind the curtain. To be honest, Wu Zetian was really happy. After all, this right is addictive. Once you have it, you will want more. Wu Zetian wants more rights, so she must Fighting, constantly snatching from Li Zhi, if Li Zhi has less power, then Wu Zetian will have more power.

Now it is behind the curtain to listen to the government, behind the two saints, what is after the two saints, that is, the emperor and the queen, Wu Zetian will clear her biggest stumbling block here today, and she will walk towards her own broad road.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

All the officials stood still, and everyone wanted Li Zhi to bow and salute. At this time, Li Zhi nodded slightly and said, "Pingshen...!"

All the officials got up, at this time Li You was standing at the top of the military officer, and Changsun Wuji was at the top of the civil servants, but after the salute, Li You stood up and saw Wu Zetian sitting behind Li Zhi with a curtain hanging , Li You's face fell, and he pointed to the curtain behind Li Zhi and asked, "Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this?"

Facing Li You's question, Li Zhi said timidly, "Fifth brother, it's like this. Recently, I always feel unwell, and I want to ask Mei Niang to help me deal with some things."

"What...?" Li You was furious directly: "Your Majesty, the empress once said that the harem should not interfere in politics. Have you forgotten the empress' instructions?"

"Bold King Qi, you dare to reprimand the emperor!" Wu Zetian let out a roar from behind the curtain at this time, this should be the first time Wu Zetian directly challenged Li You.

Hearing Wu Zetian's roar, all the ministers in the court trembled slightly. No one thought that today's morning court would be so exciting. The Queen and King Qi directly confronted each other.

"You dare to talk to me like that." Li You was also angry: "Wu Mei, do you know what you are doing?"

"Of course I know that I am sharing your majesty's worries. Your majesty is physically impaired. I am one of the two saints, so I should share your majesty's worries. King Qi, do you know what you have done?"

Wu Zetian glared at Li You.

"What did this king do?" Li You asked, standing forward and looking at Wu Zetian behind the curtain.

"Hmph!" With a cold snort, Wu Zetian said directly, "You want to rebel, you want to be emperor!"

"You dare to slander me?" Li You looked at Wu Zetian and asked.

"Slander...?" Wu Zetian laughed loudly: "Li You, your scandal has been clearly exposed, there is no need to slander at all, Su Dingfang has already fully admitted the fact that you want to rebel."

As soon as Wu Zetian finished speaking, there was an uproar in the audience, and whispers could be heard in the hall.

Li Zhi shouted: "Quiet!"

All the whispers stopped, and then Li Zhi said to Wu Zetian behind him: "Meiniang, you said that the fifth brother rebelled, but there is evidence!"

Wu Meiniang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my concubine has witnesses!"

"Witness. Are you here at this time?" Li Zhi asked.

"The concubine can invite witnesses up immediately. The king of Qi, Li You, will definitely have nowhere to hide." Wu Zetian shouted righteously.

"Okay!" Li Zhi also said hastily: "Pass down my will and let the witnesses enter the palace!"

It took about one stick of incense to see a Hu man coming in from outside the main hall and came to the hall. After seeing Li Zhi, the Hu man knelt down and shouted: "Xiaomin asks Yuan to pay homage to His Majesty." , Greetings to the Queen!"

"Suo Yuanli's palace summoned you to accuse one of the people present of having rebellious intentions. Can you tell His Majesty now who exactly is rebellious and how this person has rebellious intentions?"

Wu Zetian looked at Suo Yuanli and asked.

Suo Yuanli didn't hesitate at all, and pointed directly at Li You, who was on the side, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, empress, this is the rebellious heart of Li Youyou, King Qi of the Tang Dynasty."

"Suo Yuanli, do you know what the charges are for slandering King Qi?" Li Zhi shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty, the little people have absolutely no slander. Qi Wang Li You has committed a heinous crime. He definitely has the heart of rebellion." Suo Yuanli was very determined.

At this time, Li Zhi asked again: "You said Qi Wang Li You had the intention of rebelling, so what evidence do you have, if there is no evidence, it is slander."

"I know, Xiaomin knows, Xiaomin has evidence, there is evidence to prove that Qi Wang Li You has a rebellious heart, that is, Qi Wang Li You has a dragon robe in his Dunhuafang!"

Suo Yuanli shouted loudly.

"What...?" After hearing Suo Yuanli yelling that there was a dragon robe in Li You's Dunhuafang, all the officials in the main hall were in an uproar again. You must know that this dragon robe can only be worn by the emperor.

Li You actually dared to hide the dragon robe privately, everyone knew about Sima Zhao's heart!
