They all want to hug my thighs
Chapter 57 Incident!Li Shimin entered Zhou secretly to save his brother!
Coincidentally, after she fell to the ground, the concubine refused to let her go, and kicked Feng Xiaolian's waist. Feng Xiaolian's face paled in pain, and she passed out.
When the prince came to the courtyard, he saw Feng Xiaolian, who was unconscious on the ground, and was furious. He went forward and slapped the concubine, which knocked the concubine into a daze.
"Take the princess back to the backyard, and you are not allowed to appear outside without my king's permission!" The prince turned his back to her coldly under the princess's disbelieving eyes, and then he carefully picked up Feng Xiaolian, who had blood on his lips: " Somebody, go get the doctor."
Gongsun Yan lowered his eyebrows, obeyed the prince's order calmly, and invited a medical officer for Feng Xiaolian. At the same time, he looked at Feng Xiaolian with murderous intent.
"My lord, are we just looking at Emperor Zhou like this, taking the power of the Great Zhou into our hands step by step?" Gongsun Yanhan said in a voice, "Has the lord lost his ambition for that position now?"
The counselor's questioning made the prince silent for a while, he reflected that he had spent all his thoughts on pursuing the beauty, and felt guilty for a second.At the same time, a trace of displeasure arose in his heart, thinking that Gongsun Yan was dictating to him now, and caring too much, right?
The long-standing disguise made the prince smile helplessly, and he said to the counselor: "The emperor of Zhou is sending people to investigate our movements now, so we must not expose our flaws now."
"But the lord!" The counselor wanted to speak anxiously. He found that the lord's gaze was still fixed on the alluring disaster, and he felt a chill in his heart.
"Enough!" The prince shouted sharply: "You have surpassed, Gongsun Yan, are you the master or is this king the master?"
"My lord, forgive me," Gongsun Yan knelt on the ground and stopped talking.
"That's all," the prince rubbed his brows and eyes: "Now the Lanqin Garden, which is booming in business, is the property of Queen Zhou Ji. It's time to cause them some trouble."
Gongsun Yan knelt on the ground and raised his head in surprise: "My lord wants to..."
"Go and bring that fake Li Jiancheng to Lanqin Garden to kill, and then attract those Tang people." The prince said with a cold gaze, he felt Feng Xiaolian move, and his eyes were immediately attracted to him.
Gongsun Yan's eyes flashed, and he lowered his head in response, and went to work loyally.
After the counselor left, the prince carefully took Feng Xiaolian's little hand, and comforted softly: "This prince will seek justice for you, whether it is the princess who bullied you, or the Emperor Zhou who locked you up like a lunatic. "
Feng Xiaolian's palms trembled, she opened her eyes, silent tears fell from the corners of her eyes, looking at the prince with great distress.
"Are you still unwilling to talk to this king? It's not good for this king to force you, but as long as you say anything, I will obey you. In the future, it will definitely be much better than Zhou Emperor's treatment of you." The prince looked at Feng Xiao. Lianjiao's beautiful and soft body, he knew how soft and numb this beauty's body was, and secretly scolded Emperor Zhou for his tyranny, such a beauty was not cared for properly.
And the beauty was injured, her side face was red and swollen, and the corners of her mouth were a little broken, which was pitiful and pitiful.
"Are you going to usurp the throne?" Feng Xiaolian asked in a trembling voice, "You know, this is a serious crime requiring beheading."
"Emperor Zhou's foundation is unstable and his power is weak. Now he has offended the world's aristocratic families. There are some good fruits to eat. I am also a direct descendant of the Zhou family. In terms of blood, it is more precious than him. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to sit on the throne of God in the future."
Feng Xiaolian saw that he was swearing, full of confidence and able to enter and exit the court freely, so she took her into the palace quietly.But based on what she saw before, Emperor Zhou was indeed a little boy, and she couldn't help but believe the prince's words.
"Do you want to let me follow you with such a bad reputation, or take me as a concubine so that you can play with me like a pet?" Feng Xiaolian said sadly.
Hearing the looseness between her words, the prince couldn't help being surprised and said: "Are you willing to follow me? If you are willing to follow me, I will let you be my princess, and I will let you be my queen in the future!"
Feng Xiaolian's eyes flickered, she closed her eyes to conceal her ambition, and said in a trembling voice, "Do I have any other choice?"
The prince assured her: "This prince will definitely treat you well!"
That night, the two were in perfect harmony. This was the first time Feng Xiaolian responded to him on his own initiative, and the prince was very pleasantly surprised. He called her by her name and affectionately called her Lian'er.
"Mr. Gongsun, in the future, I can only watch the seductiveness brought by the prince from outside, and confuse the prince, and embarrass me?" The princess's eyes were red, she found the counselor of the palace, and said angrily: "The seductiveness has already fascinated me." Your lord has lost his mind, and I'm afraid it will delay important events in the future!"
"Princess, don't worry, this person won't live long, let him be proud for a few days." Gongsun Yan's eyes sparkled coldly, and he handed the paper bag in his hand to the princess: "Please also ask the concubine to start with the maid in the backyard. /Poison/The medicine was put in that person's food, this is the medicine that will gradually weaken the body, within two months, she will weaken and die, ordinary people can't find the reason."
The concubine took the paper bag Gongsun Yan handed her in a daze, thought for a moment, then grabbed it tightly in her palm, and said bitterly: "I see."
The Lanqin Garden on the west side of Zhou Wangdu is open!Paper, ink, soap, and more are on sale, and there are thrilling performances on opening day.The dignitaries who went to watch the show all returned happily and praised each other.
Intense and impassioned performances are what Gao Jianli is good at. On the high platform, he wears a blue suit and plays music with Zhu to accompany the lion dance team. The applause from the crowd makes this art lover very happy A sense of accomplishment.
Zhou Fu took the opportunity to promote paper and movable type printing. Taking advantage of the family's dying days, he printed a large number of enlightenment books and books of sages and sold them to students all over the world at low official prices. Students all over the world can learn the books of sages and sages. .By the way, they also brought private goods to do a wave of publicity for Dazhou Xinlu.
Lanqin Garden became popular for a while, and everyone in the upper echelon was rumoring that the shop was run by the empress, and no one dared to trouble her for a while.
However, the good things don't last long, something happened to Lanqin Garden.
"It's dead, it's dead!" A woman's scream sounded from the private room in Lanqin Garden.
Gao Jianli followed the prestige, but the woman in the cubicle ran out, pointed at the room in panic, and shouted at him, "There's a lot of blood!"
Gao Jianli hurriedly went to push open the door, a strong smell of blood rushed towards his face, and there was a person lying in the room, his body was cut to death in many places, his death condition was extremely miserable.
Gao Jianli frowned, turned her over, and saw that the dead man's mouth was stuffed with gauze, and he died with regret.His pupils shrank suddenly, how could it be Bishamon?
"No, no, this person is not Bishamon." Gao Jianli carefully observed the facial features of the deceased, and found that he was slightly different from Bishamon.
The attendant rushed into the house in a panic, crying loudly: "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is dead!"
Hearing him yelling His Highness the Crown Prince, Gao Jian's heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was wrong.
"Hurry up and report to the government!" The attendant yelled angrily, "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Kingdom. You Zhou people who killed the Crown Prince are all doomed!"
"It's him, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince he assassinated!" The woman who found the dead man pointed at Gao Jianli and shouted sharply.
"Murder my prince of the Tang Dynasty, he will be punished! Come on, where are the guards? Take this person to me quickly!"
Gao Jianli was taken aback, but saw the envoy of the Tang Kingdom pointing at him, and soon guards rushed over to surround him.
Unexpected disasters fell from the sky, and when he went to see the woman who screamed before, he found that her eyes were averted.Gao Jianli squinted his eyes, shocked.
He guessed that someone must be setting up a trap!
Who exactly are they targeting?
Gao Jianli pondered: Is it aimed at Lanqin Garden?Or the master behind their Lanqin Garden?Or is it the relationship between Zhou and Tang?
The prince of the Tang Dynasty is dead, the king of Tang will not let it go, the two countries of Zhou and Tang will definitely turn against each other, this is not a good thing!
The news quickly spread to Wenxin Village, and the people sent by Lan Qinyuan to inform them rushed into Jing Ke's small building, and spoke to Jing Ke with emotion, dignified and panicked.
Jing Ke was taken aback: "What did you say?! Jianli killed the Tang prince?"
Li Jiancheng ran downstairs when he heard the news, grabbed the man and asked, "What's going on? What is the prince of the Tang Dynasty?"
The spy said: "No, Gao Jianli was wronged, someone must have set up a trick to set up Lanqin Garden!"
Jing Ke stared at Li Jiancheng, the real Tang prince, and said to him, "Something happened. The Tang prince Li Jiancheng died in Lanqin Garden, and someone accused Gao Jianli of killing him. Now Jianli has been brought to the government."
Li Jiancheng widened his eyes and murmured, "How is this possible?"
He left a mark at the entrance of Wenxin Village, but his hidden guards have not found it for a long time, so that Li Jiancheng can't act rashly.
There was no news about Xinxin Village, so he naturally didn't know that someone had been impersonating him all this time. Li Jiancheng thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became.
There must be a series of traps!This trap is a net that has been laid since he was assassinated and died!
"I have to contact them quickly," said Li Jiancheng, unwilling to wait any longer. He must go to the scene to have a look.
Jing Ke was taken aback. Did this person die if he was exposed directly?
When Han Xin heard the news, he also wanted to go to Lanqin Garden to find out, and a group of people immediately planned to hit the road.Jing Ke shouted: "Everyone stop! No one can act rashly until the young master comes back!"
Her prestige has always been able to control the situation at critical times, she said to Jing Ke: "Please hurry up and find the young master to explain the news."
Li Jiancheng was very anxious. If Tang Guo and Zhou turned against each other, Lan Qinyuan and his gang would all be imprisoned, and their lives might even be in danger.
After Zhou Fu received the news, he sprayed out a mouthful of tea.
"Excellent, there is still such an operation?" Zhou Fu muttered.
He thought that the mastermind behind the scenes would definitely not be able to hold back, and there must be some means to target him, but he did not expect that that person would directly start with Li Jiancheng's identity.The real Li Jiancheng is in Wenxin Street. In Dazhou, no one can confirm who is the real Tang prince. Once the Tang envoys are bribed, or someone in Tang wants to engage Li Jiancheng, then in Dazhou, even if it is real, it will become Unrecognized fakes will be removed at that time, and it will be too late when Li Yuan reacts and sends someone to come over to confirm.
No, he had to send someone to protect him.
Zhou Fu paused for a moment, thinking deeply, if Emperor Zhou sent people directly, Li Jiancheng would be wary of him at that time, and he was ashamed to keep Li Jiancheng in Dazhou, if he wanted to inspect It is also very troublesome for the folks to have no suitable identity.Is there any way to keep both his own vest and Lanqin Garden, so as to temporarily stabilize the situation?
The envoy of the Tang State came outside the court and bluntly said that he wanted to meet Emperor Zhou.Regarding the death of their Tang prince, Da Zhou must give them an explanation.
Emperor Zhou scolded angrily: "A mere envoy dares to yell at me? Ask for an explanation, let your monarch personally send someone to discuss an explanation with me."
The envoy of the Tang Dynasty did not expect that Emperor Zhou would be so stubborn, so he got frustrated. He was not willing to spread rumors everywhere, but was arrested and thrown into prison.
Guan Zhong advised Emperor Zhou: "Is it wrong for Your Majesty to do this? If the Tang State receives news, I'm afraid they will turn against you."
"To intercept the unfavorable news from the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, I will personally write a letter to ask the king of Tang to send a new envoy to Zhou." The envoy behind the scenes didn't know that Li Jiancheng himself was now "in the hands" of Zhou Fu, and he only needed to delay it until Li Yuan sent a new envoy. It's no problem for people to come and claim it.
At the same time, Zhou Fuxiu wrote two letters, one was to call Tang envoys to Zhou, and the second was a secret letter, warning Li Yuan that there might be changes in the Tang Dynasty, and the real Li Jiancheng was not dead, just waiting for them to come to recognize him.
Then, Zhou Fu felt that he still wanted to order someone to investigate the case first.
So Zhou Fu wrote an imperial edict, specially ordering Prime Minister Tian Ji, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, to deal with this big case.
In addition, Gao Jianli must protect him.
Not long after, news of Zhou Fu was brought to Wenxin Village by the dark guards. He asked Jing Ke and others to protect Li Jiancheng first, and sent dark guards to hide in the dark.
Li Yuan, who was far away in the country of Tang, felt unbelievable when he received the news that his eldest son was hacked to death. He was deeply saddened. His eldest son, Bishamon, just disappeared?
What followed was a rage, wishing he could immediately send troops to avenge the eldest son.
"Your Majesty, don't be impulsive! If Zhou and Tang meet each other now, it will be a great disadvantage to Tang, and the rest of the princes will definitely attack!"
Liu Wenjing, a counselor next to Li Yuan, stopped the emotional Li Yuan and told him not to send troops immediately. He said seriously: "Your Majesty, the geographical location of Tang is too far away from Zhou, and it needs to pass through Qin and Jin. It is really not suitable to rush to send troops!"
Where did Li Yuan not know this truth?But Bishamon is his preferred future heir of the Tang Kingdom, he is the crowned prince of the Tang Kingdom, he was not valued in Zhou Dynasty, and even died of being hacked to death. How can he bear it as a father?
Queen Dou also persuaded Li Yuan, although the death of the eldest son was a heavy blow to Queen Dou, this intelligent and resolute woman judged the situation, and in order to estimate the power, she did not hesitate to use lies to appease the angry Li Yuan, in order to prevent Li Yuan from getting angry The idea of sending troops to Dazhou immediately.
"Your Majesty, Bishamon may not really be dead!" Empress Dou was heartbroken, and she tremblingly said: "It is said that mother and child are connected to each other. When Bishamon was young, he almost fell into the river. All my concubines could feel it at that time." The feeling of pain in my heart, I can sense that something happened to him, and I am panicked."
"Chen Qie felt uncomfortable for a while, but now he is fine. Therefore, Chen Qie feels that Bishamon will not die so easily. With his Bishamon's wisdom, it is very likely that when someone kills him, Just feign death and get away?" Empress Dou remonstrated with him with tears in her eyes, but in the end she shed tears.
It was Li Shimin who said to them: "Father and Queen Mother, please allow Li Shimin to go to Zhou to find his brother. No matter what happens to his brother, my son will bring him back!"
The eldest son, Li Shimin, is both civil and military, and has great wisdom. He is a brother of Li Jiancheng's compatriots. Queen Dou stopped him: "Bishamon is now in danger. If something happens to you, what should I do if I want to be the mother? You can't go there." , you can’t go there!” After speaking, Queen Dou was choked up.
Li Yuan wiped away his tears silently, and said to Li Shimin: "Your elder brother's life and death are unknown now, you must ensure your own safety, Da Zhou is dangerous, and now you don't know the attitude of Emperor Zhou, so don't mention the matter of going to Zhou anymore."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Zhou as an envoy," Li Yuan's second brother Li Zhan stood up.
"Second brother," Li Yuan said in surprise, "How can this be done? You are the king of Tang, how can you put yourself in danger?"
Li Zhan said sternly: "When Zhou ordered people to call Tang envoys into Zhou, he must have a valuable person to go. This is a major issue related to the two countries, and the life and death of the Tang prince is unknown. I must investigate. As for the danger and No, the minister is not the heir of the Tang Dynasty, so it is of no use, isn't it?"
Li Yuan was greatly moved by Li Zhan's awe-inspiring words, and sighed that the second brother was still willing to stand up now that he was in a dangerous situation.
In the end, Li Yuan agreed to Li Zhan's request, and Li Zhan took a thousand horses away, packed up a wave and went to Zhou.
The counselor said in a low voice: "I also ask the king to revise a letter and pass it to Qin King Fu Jian and Jin King Sima Zhong to escort the prince on the road."
"That's for sure!" Li Yuan answered seriously and thought for a while.
"Order the Tang army to gather at the border. If there is an accident, go to Zhou by way," Li Yuan said, "Both Qin and Yan will suffer from defeat, and they dare not stop the second brother."
After Li Zhan took the order to leave, Dazhou’s secret letter also arrived. Because of fears that there would be traitors in the Tang Kingdom, the secret agent selected the targets of the letter to be sent to the residences of the princes outside the Tang Palace. Li Shimin, the connected prince of the Qin Dynasty, became the target of the spy.
"Hey!" A servant poked his head from the stable, startling the sneaking spy.
The spy stared at him vigilantly, when did this person enter the stable?
"You are sneaky, what are you going to do?" The boy rushed out, and his strikes were like lightning, attacking the spy.
After beating back and forth a few times, the spies were horrified that there is such a master in the palace of Prince Qin's son!
The secret agent knew that he could not stay any longer, and had to retreat immediately, otherwise he would not be able to protect himself, and he could not complete the task, which delayed His Majesty's important affairs.
Unexpectedly, the young man walked past him, pinched a secret letter in his hand, he opened it to read, and muttered: "Eh? The secret letter written by Emperor Zhou to Old Man Li, how could it be sent to the Shizi's residence?"
The spy turned pale with fright, and wanted to snatch the letter from the young servant, but the young servant pushed aside the spy's attack two or three times, and said to him: "This is for Li Shimin, right? Don't worry, I'll help you deliver it, okay?" Now you can go."
The boy waved his hand and drove the spy away.
How could the spy trust him like that?Unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew by, and when he came back to his senses, he had already been thrown out of the mansion of King Qin Shizi.
The secret agent was stunned in shock, this, this is a rare master in the world, he must report to His Majesty immediately!
After Li Shimin returned to the mansion, a disgraceful young man ran towards him in a hurry. Li Shimin was in a heavy heart because of the murder of his elder brother. At this time, the two brothers had not fallen out because of the conflict of interests. He still respected and loved Li Jiancheng as the elder brother. of.
"Wu Xu, what are you doing?" Li Shimin was in a bad mood, he was not willing to coax the naughty boy who was temporarily staying at his house, he yelled angrily.
Wu Xu stopped in her tracks, curling her lips aggrievedly.
"What are you doing, you are in a bad mood to vent your anger on other people's children?" Changsun heard the voice and came over to check, seeing Li Shimin angrily scolding the boy, she was not happy, what's wrong with the little girl being more lively and cute?
Li Shimin didn't hate his own wife, he rubbed his forehead and said to Changsun: "Today my father declared me to enter the palace. There was news from Da Zhou that my elder brother was arrested and killed in Zhou."
Changsun said in astonishment: "How could this be? Where are the hidden guards protecting eldest brother?"
"There has been no news yet," Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "Wei Zheng went to Dazhou with elder brother, but the letter sent by the Tang envoy this time does not contain Wei Zheng's personal letter."
Wu Xu looked around and saw that they completely ignored her, and her arrogant temper came up. Except for the master, no one in this world would dare to scold her!She smeared the letter on Li Shimin's face, angrily said: "Look for yourself, big villain!" Then she turned and ran away.
Li Shimin's face hurt from being slapped, and he was furious. He said that the child was so stubborn. He took down the paper, his eyes fell on the letter, and looked at it suspiciously.
Seeing Li Shimin's shocked face showing joy, Changsun asked concerned: "What's wrong? But what's the good news?"
"Brother is not dead!" Li Shimin wished he could go to the palace to see Li Yuan immediately, he stopped for a moment, and thought deeply: "No, I will go to the palace quietly at night, the letter said that there are traitors in the Tang Dynasty who want to assassinate brother, I have to be more careful, Don't let the news get out."
The Changsun family will not gossip, and Li Shimin knew that he was worried about that brat Wu Xu, "Please also ask Guanyin Maid to watch Wu Xu, and don't let him gossip around."
Changsun said helplessly: "Don't worry, Ah Xu won't talk nonsense."
"You know how to pamper him, why don't you pamper Gao Ming (Li Chengqian) and do good to (Li Zhi) them," Li Shimin complained.
Changsun felt helpless with Li Shimin's lame eyes. Didn't he realize that Ah Xu is a girl?
What's more, Wei Shan likes A Xu, so she has to help Wei Shan trick A Xu into their house!
Li Shimin took advantage of the night to enter the palace, and told the happy event to Li Yuan and Queen Dou, who were in the palace in grief and sleepless.
"Father, please allow the child to secretly go to Dazhou to welcome back brother!" Li Shimin asked again.
Queen Dou wiped her tears, and said bitterly: "I didn't expect that there would be a traitor in the Tang Dynasty to kill Bishamon."
"You want to take the secret guards and go to Da Zhou to look for Bishamon incognito?" Li Yuan pondered.
"Yes," Li Shimin insisted, he firmly believed that he would be able to bring the eldest brother back!
"When you go over there, don't contact the Tang envoy, find the hidden guards around Bishamon as soon as possible to investigate the situation, and ask your second uncle if you have any questions," Li Yuan relented, and he ordered.
"No!" Queen Dou sternly said, "Don't trust anyone. Now that you don't know who the traitor is, do you know how dangerous the enemy is while you are in the dark? Even your second uncle, don't trust him!"
"Second brother is a righteous man, how could he be a traitor?" Li Yuan scolded, "A woman's opinion."
Queen Dou now looks like a traitor to everyone. She told Li Shimin that after finding Li Jiancheng, she would leave immediately and come back secretly. Emperor Zhou would send someone to send this letter. It must be the whereabouts of Li Jiancheng. Queen Dou knew that there was no way to stop Li Shimin from entering Zhou. , I could only drag him to talk about my worries.
After comforting Queen Dou, Li Shimin returned home overnight to pack up his things and prepare to go on the road. Changsun prepared his luggage for him. She is the woman behind Li Shimin and his strong backing. She is gentle and strong. Her greatness left a lasting mark in Chinese history Brilliant record, known as the benchmark of the emperor's wife.
"Be careful on the road, the children and I will wait for you to come back."
"Don't worry, Guanyin servant girl, I will take care of myself."
In order to enter Zhou in a low-key manner, Li Shimin only took away ten elites, and the rest of the hidden guards dispersed and sneaked in one after another, and joined them after Zhou.
Wu Xu fell far behind, flirting with another man.
"Are you going to let it go, are you going to let it go?" Wu Xu glared at this disloyal subordinate with his heroic eyebrows horizontally.
"Are you really going to Dazhou?" The subordinate made a bitter face, and sighed that the aunt kept going.
"Sure!" Wu Xu said as a matter of course: "Should I leave and stay in the Shizi's mansion and be pestered by a sissy?"
The corner of the subordinate's mouth twitched when he heard the words. Li Zhi admired you wholeheartedly. He tried you many times, wrote poems for you and gave you handkerchiefs, but you said that he was a sissy. He especially wanted to ask Wu Xu, are you right? woman?
Li Zhi fainted from crying in the toilet.
The subordinates couldn't hold her back, and the boss she was looking for had to follow to the end even on her knees!
On Zhou Fu's side, Lan Qinyuan and other arrested people did not suffer through secret personal relationships. Tian Ji was summoned by His Majesty and asked him to delay as much as possible. Although he didn't know why, he didn't dare to ask more questions. Arrange the case in a timely manner, and when the envoy asks about it, he just shirks it with sloppy eyes.
"How did he die? Wu Zuo is still conducting an autopsy, and there is no result yet."
"Oh? Who said it was the people from Lanqin Garden who killed it? I only look at the evidence when handling the case."
"Whoever spreads rumors again will be arrested and brought to justice immediately."
A stern and selfless official like Tian Ji would offend a lot of people, but with Zhou Emperor covering his head, he is now a big celebrity in the court of Emperor Zhou, no one would dare to touch Tian Ji's bad luck.
Tian Ji is not the kind of official who would abuse people by lynching. He is good at observing the scene, discusses with Wu after conducting autopsies, and finally draws a conclusion.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince of Tang died at the hands of a woman," Tian Ji implored to meet Emperor Zhou and present the result.
"Oh? How do you know that?" Zhou Fu asked doubtfully, "The corpse has been stabbed several times, which one is the fatal injury?"
Tian Ji said respectfully: "An ordinary man would not stab a grown man to death with dozens of strokes, but the first stroke was to stab the prince of the Tang Dynasty in the abdomen. It must have been stabbed for a moment when the two of them were hugging and took advantage of his unawares." In this way, it must be a woman who can face the prince of the Tang Dynasty face to face."
"Then what about the dishcloth that Prince Tang mentioned? How can this be explained?"
"After the woman stabbed the prince of the Tang Dynasty, she found that he was not dead after falling to the ground. Instead, she wanted to cry out. In desperation, she covered his mouth with her hands and stuffed a cloth into his mouth." Tian Ji talked freely. : "The minister and Wu Zuo found blood and skin in the mouth of the Tang prince. It must be that he bit the flesh of the woman's palm while struggling."
"So, the murderer must be the woman who was bitten on the palm of her hand!" Zhou Fu's eyes lit up, and he said.
"That's right, there is no one in the prison with a wounded palm, so the murderer is not a person in Lanqin Garden, and has already escaped." Tian Ji affirmed: "Everyone in Lanqin Garden is implicated. is innocent."
Zhou Fu thought about it for a while, then shook his head lightly: "Let's wait for a while, I think that if the scapegoat is not seen being tried, the murderer will not let it go, and it is very likely that he will act again to show his flaws."
Tian Ji was surprised for a moment, and called out to Your Majesty, he didn't expect this, he hesitated and said, "It's just that the innocent people who are implicated are in vain to be imprisoned."
"Please trouble Mr. Tian to improve the prison environment for them," Zhou Fu crazily suggested to Tian Ji.
Tian Ji naturally agreed. His justice made him know that he was wrong when facing the innocent and troubled people, but his loyalty and wisdom let him know that His Majesty's thinking was correct. Now it would be great if he could make some material compensation. .
After Tian Ji left, Zhou Fu let out a sigh of relief, "Let Gao Jianli and the others live in prison for now. The Wenxin villagers don't act rashly for the time being. I want to see if the people behind the scenes have other methods?"
"In the current situation, it is safer to be in the prison. Your Majesty can go out and catch the tail of the person behind the scenes." Zhao Gao comforted Zhou Fu and said, "Young Master Gao will not blame you for this."
"It's because I know he won't blame me that I feel sorry," Zhou Fu stroked his chin, and wrote a secret edict: "You send this to Tian Ji."
The current case is under further investigation, and it is true that Gao Jianli and others cannot be released temporarily.
Gao Jianli lived in the prison, and the guards were polite to him and even bought him a drink.
He has stayed everywhere in his life, but now he is living in a prison for the first time, and his life experience is quite good?
Gao Jianli was confused, this prison was completely different from what he had imagined.Gao Jianli caressed the soft and warm pile of straw, he was wearing a new and clean prison uniform, and the prison guard and Yan Yuese sent meat and vegetable meals.He was very puzzled, how could this be going to jail!This is a blessing, right?According to the current treatment, the crime rate in Dazhou will rise!
Could it be that the son's interpersonal relationship is so strong?Gao Jianli murmured in his heart, even Mr. Tian, an upright and honest official, opened the door for them, which is really amazing!
Zhou Fu tried his best to find out the secrets of the black hands behind the scenes. People said that the more he did, the more mistakes he made. Now he can be sure that anyone who can get in touch with the Tang prince in Lanqin Garden, even if it is a fake prince, must be a fake prince. He is a descendant of Da Zhou's clan!
Zhou Fu used the deletion method to check out one by one. The mastermind behind the scenes felt the sense of urgency brought by Emperor Zhou, and finally couldn't help it, and made another move.
He wants Emperor Zhou to be in a state of desperation, and Emperor Zhou has no time to use his avatar to investigate the clues he accidentally left behind!
Since then, the king of Zhou began to have rumors and rumors, spreading the news that the emperor of Zhou was about to draft, many ministers were moved by this, and they were encouraged to persuade the emperor of Zhou.
"Your Majesty, the harem should not be empty, and the emperor should not favor only one person!" The courtiers began to suggest that the Emperor Zhou accept the harem under the fanning of the people behind him.
Zhou Fule laughed, when Grandmother Rong was around, he might still compromise and rely on her, but now that he has the power in his hands, there is no oppression by the elders in the harem, is it necessary to make troubles?
When a normal king hears about the draft, most of them agree. Who doesn't like beauties in the world?What Gongsun Yan has to do now is to make the relationship between the emperor and the empress stiff, and also to separate the relationship between Emperor Zhou and the Zhou family. Who told Lanqin Garden to be opened by the Zhou family?With such a big trouble lying in the way, wouldn't Emperor Zhou have a grudge against the queen?
Gongsun Yan was always paying attention to Emperor Zhou's reaction, just waiting for the opportunity to send the foreign dancer he had trained/taught into the palace.
Then Zhou Fu swiped his pen and rejected them all!
"What are you guys doing staring at my backyard after being full all day long? I am so in love with the queen and want you to send my concubine? Since you are all so free, then I will find something for you to do." !"
You, aren't you from the Ministry of Industry?Hurry up, renovate the streets in the south of the city, tidy up and create a market.
Are you not a civil servant?In charge of education, I order you to compile Taixue books, if there is no result, you are not allowed to publish it.
Are you not a military officer?Military officer so free?Go back to training, I want you to take the soldiers to work, the increase in military pay is not for you to eat!
Those white-faced courtiers who were jumping up and down got their noses ashes again, so they must be listless.
Zhou Fu slapped those people who danced happily, and arranged a bunch of overtime tasks, which can be regarded as making those people honest.
"Really, I don't know what to draw. My daughter doesn't cherish it well, so she will be sent to the imperial palace to be tortured." Zhou Fu complained, "It's all about what I think."
Zhao Gao moved his mouth and sighed deeply: "Your Majesty! There are so many riches and honors that people want to sharpen their heads and drill into it!"
"Even if you know it's a waste of time to come in, you still want to waste your life in it for nothing?"
"Sometimes, what I'm most afraid of is the two words, what if it's chosen, what if it's chosen by His Majesty?" Zhao Gao said quietly.
"I won't take a fancy to them," Zhou Fu murmured, "Who would take a fancy to a female cat? I'm not a bird/beast?"
"Your Majesty, Tang Guolai has replied," Zhao Gao said to Zhou Fu after receiving the notification from his subordinates, and then he opened the urgent letter sent by Li Yuan's envoy.
"Shu King Li Zhan is on his way to Zhou?" Zhou Fu said in surprise, "If you count the days, he should have reached the Qin-Jin border, right?"
"Xuan Zhou envoy comes in."
Zhou envoys are the fastest and best riders in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The speed of delivery is required to be fast, there must be no delay on the way, and the requirements for physical fitness are very high.
"Your Majesty, the King of Shu has arrived with a thousand cavalry." The envoy of Zhou said respectfully to Emperor Zhou after entering the palace.
"A thousand cavalry?" Zhou Fu was surprised: "According to the past practice, can the princes bring a thousand cavalry into the capital?"
Zhao Gao's eyes flickered, and he asked: "There have been such examples in the past, but in the current situation, is it too dangerous for a thousand cavalrymen from other countries to enter the capital of the King of Zhou?"
Zhou Fu thought about it, and then asked: "The spy who sent the secret letter is back?"
"I think it should be within a few days?" Zhao Gao asked, "Is Your Majesty going to announce him to the palace?"
"As soon as he comes back, ask about the situation in Tang Country," Zhou Fu nodded, and let the envoy go back.
"Is it the border between Qin and Jin? It seems that we will be able to reach Jin tomorrow, will Sima Zhong let him come?" Zhou Fu muttered a few words, and he planned to go and see for himself.
At this moment, Zhou Fu felt that the trumpet is really a convenient thing!
When the prince came to the courtyard, he saw Feng Xiaolian, who was unconscious on the ground, and was furious. He went forward and slapped the concubine, which knocked the concubine into a daze.
"Take the princess back to the backyard, and you are not allowed to appear outside without my king's permission!" The prince turned his back to her coldly under the princess's disbelieving eyes, and then he carefully picked up Feng Xiaolian, who had blood on his lips: " Somebody, go get the doctor."
Gongsun Yan lowered his eyebrows, obeyed the prince's order calmly, and invited a medical officer for Feng Xiaolian. At the same time, he looked at Feng Xiaolian with murderous intent.
"My lord, are we just looking at Emperor Zhou like this, taking the power of the Great Zhou into our hands step by step?" Gongsun Yanhan said in a voice, "Has the lord lost his ambition for that position now?"
The counselor's questioning made the prince silent for a while, he reflected that he had spent all his thoughts on pursuing the beauty, and felt guilty for a second.At the same time, a trace of displeasure arose in his heart, thinking that Gongsun Yan was dictating to him now, and caring too much, right?
The long-standing disguise made the prince smile helplessly, and he said to the counselor: "The emperor of Zhou is sending people to investigate our movements now, so we must not expose our flaws now."
"But the lord!" The counselor wanted to speak anxiously. He found that the lord's gaze was still fixed on the alluring disaster, and he felt a chill in his heart.
"Enough!" The prince shouted sharply: "You have surpassed, Gongsun Yan, are you the master or is this king the master?"
"My lord, forgive me," Gongsun Yan knelt on the ground and stopped talking.
"That's all," the prince rubbed his brows and eyes: "Now the Lanqin Garden, which is booming in business, is the property of Queen Zhou Ji. It's time to cause them some trouble."
Gongsun Yan knelt on the ground and raised his head in surprise: "My lord wants to..."
"Go and bring that fake Li Jiancheng to Lanqin Garden to kill, and then attract those Tang people." The prince said with a cold gaze, he felt Feng Xiaolian move, and his eyes were immediately attracted to him.
Gongsun Yan's eyes flashed, and he lowered his head in response, and went to work loyally.
After the counselor left, the prince carefully took Feng Xiaolian's little hand, and comforted softly: "This prince will seek justice for you, whether it is the princess who bullied you, or the Emperor Zhou who locked you up like a lunatic. "
Feng Xiaolian's palms trembled, she opened her eyes, silent tears fell from the corners of her eyes, looking at the prince with great distress.
"Are you still unwilling to talk to this king? It's not good for this king to force you, but as long as you say anything, I will obey you. In the future, it will definitely be much better than Zhou Emperor's treatment of you." The prince looked at Feng Xiao. Lianjiao's beautiful and soft body, he knew how soft and numb this beauty's body was, and secretly scolded Emperor Zhou for his tyranny, such a beauty was not cared for properly.
And the beauty was injured, her side face was red and swollen, and the corners of her mouth were a little broken, which was pitiful and pitiful.
"Are you going to usurp the throne?" Feng Xiaolian asked in a trembling voice, "You know, this is a serious crime requiring beheading."
"Emperor Zhou's foundation is unstable and his power is weak. Now he has offended the world's aristocratic families. There are some good fruits to eat. I am also a direct descendant of the Zhou family. In terms of blood, it is more precious than him. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to sit on the throne of God in the future."
Feng Xiaolian saw that he was swearing, full of confidence and able to enter and exit the court freely, so she took her into the palace quietly.But based on what she saw before, Emperor Zhou was indeed a little boy, and she couldn't help but believe the prince's words.
"Do you want to let me follow you with such a bad reputation, or take me as a concubine so that you can play with me like a pet?" Feng Xiaolian said sadly.
Hearing the looseness between her words, the prince couldn't help being surprised and said: "Are you willing to follow me? If you are willing to follow me, I will let you be my princess, and I will let you be my queen in the future!"
Feng Xiaolian's eyes flickered, she closed her eyes to conceal her ambition, and said in a trembling voice, "Do I have any other choice?"
The prince assured her: "This prince will definitely treat you well!"
That night, the two were in perfect harmony. This was the first time Feng Xiaolian responded to him on his own initiative, and the prince was very pleasantly surprised. He called her by her name and affectionately called her Lian'er.
"Mr. Gongsun, in the future, I can only watch the seductiveness brought by the prince from outside, and confuse the prince, and embarrass me?" The princess's eyes were red, she found the counselor of the palace, and said angrily: "The seductiveness has already fascinated me." Your lord has lost his mind, and I'm afraid it will delay important events in the future!"
"Princess, don't worry, this person won't live long, let him be proud for a few days." Gongsun Yan's eyes sparkled coldly, and he handed the paper bag in his hand to the princess: "Please also ask the concubine to start with the maid in the backyard. /Poison/The medicine was put in that person's food, this is the medicine that will gradually weaken the body, within two months, she will weaken and die, ordinary people can't find the reason."
The concubine took the paper bag Gongsun Yan handed her in a daze, thought for a moment, then grabbed it tightly in her palm, and said bitterly: "I see."
The Lanqin Garden on the west side of Zhou Wangdu is open!Paper, ink, soap, and more are on sale, and there are thrilling performances on opening day.The dignitaries who went to watch the show all returned happily and praised each other.
Intense and impassioned performances are what Gao Jianli is good at. On the high platform, he wears a blue suit and plays music with Zhu to accompany the lion dance team. The applause from the crowd makes this art lover very happy A sense of accomplishment.
Zhou Fu took the opportunity to promote paper and movable type printing. Taking advantage of the family's dying days, he printed a large number of enlightenment books and books of sages and sold them to students all over the world at low official prices. Students all over the world can learn the books of sages and sages. .By the way, they also brought private goods to do a wave of publicity for Dazhou Xinlu.
Lanqin Garden became popular for a while, and everyone in the upper echelon was rumoring that the shop was run by the empress, and no one dared to trouble her for a while.
However, the good things don't last long, something happened to Lanqin Garden.
"It's dead, it's dead!" A woman's scream sounded from the private room in Lanqin Garden.
Gao Jianli followed the prestige, but the woman in the cubicle ran out, pointed at the room in panic, and shouted at him, "There's a lot of blood!"
Gao Jianli hurriedly went to push open the door, a strong smell of blood rushed towards his face, and there was a person lying in the room, his body was cut to death in many places, his death condition was extremely miserable.
Gao Jianli frowned, turned her over, and saw that the dead man's mouth was stuffed with gauze, and he died with regret.His pupils shrank suddenly, how could it be Bishamon?
"No, no, this person is not Bishamon." Gao Jianli carefully observed the facial features of the deceased, and found that he was slightly different from Bishamon.
The attendant rushed into the house in a panic, crying loudly: "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is dead!"
Hearing him yelling His Highness the Crown Prince, Gao Jian's heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was wrong.
"Hurry up and report to the government!" The attendant yelled angrily, "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Kingdom. You Zhou people who killed the Crown Prince are all doomed!"
"It's him, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince he assassinated!" The woman who found the dead man pointed at Gao Jianli and shouted sharply.
"Murder my prince of the Tang Dynasty, he will be punished! Come on, where are the guards? Take this person to me quickly!"
Gao Jianli was taken aback, but saw the envoy of the Tang Kingdom pointing at him, and soon guards rushed over to surround him.
Unexpected disasters fell from the sky, and when he went to see the woman who screamed before, he found that her eyes were averted.Gao Jianli squinted his eyes, shocked.
He guessed that someone must be setting up a trap!
Who exactly are they targeting?
Gao Jianli pondered: Is it aimed at Lanqin Garden?Or the master behind their Lanqin Garden?Or is it the relationship between Zhou and Tang?
The prince of the Tang Dynasty is dead, the king of Tang will not let it go, the two countries of Zhou and Tang will definitely turn against each other, this is not a good thing!
The news quickly spread to Wenxin Village, and the people sent by Lan Qinyuan to inform them rushed into Jing Ke's small building, and spoke to Jing Ke with emotion, dignified and panicked.
Jing Ke was taken aback: "What did you say?! Jianli killed the Tang prince?"
Li Jiancheng ran downstairs when he heard the news, grabbed the man and asked, "What's going on? What is the prince of the Tang Dynasty?"
The spy said: "No, Gao Jianli was wronged, someone must have set up a trick to set up Lanqin Garden!"
Jing Ke stared at Li Jiancheng, the real Tang prince, and said to him, "Something happened. The Tang prince Li Jiancheng died in Lanqin Garden, and someone accused Gao Jianli of killing him. Now Jianli has been brought to the government."
Li Jiancheng widened his eyes and murmured, "How is this possible?"
He left a mark at the entrance of Wenxin Village, but his hidden guards have not found it for a long time, so that Li Jiancheng can't act rashly.
There was no news about Xinxin Village, so he naturally didn't know that someone had been impersonating him all this time. Li Jiancheng thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became.
There must be a series of traps!This trap is a net that has been laid since he was assassinated and died!
"I have to contact them quickly," said Li Jiancheng, unwilling to wait any longer. He must go to the scene to have a look.
Jing Ke was taken aback. Did this person die if he was exposed directly?
When Han Xin heard the news, he also wanted to go to Lanqin Garden to find out, and a group of people immediately planned to hit the road.Jing Ke shouted: "Everyone stop! No one can act rashly until the young master comes back!"
Her prestige has always been able to control the situation at critical times, she said to Jing Ke: "Please hurry up and find the young master to explain the news."
Li Jiancheng was very anxious. If Tang Guo and Zhou turned against each other, Lan Qinyuan and his gang would all be imprisoned, and their lives might even be in danger.
After Zhou Fu received the news, he sprayed out a mouthful of tea.
"Excellent, there is still such an operation?" Zhou Fu muttered.
He thought that the mastermind behind the scenes would definitely not be able to hold back, and there must be some means to target him, but he did not expect that that person would directly start with Li Jiancheng's identity.The real Li Jiancheng is in Wenxin Street. In Dazhou, no one can confirm who is the real Tang prince. Once the Tang envoys are bribed, or someone in Tang wants to engage Li Jiancheng, then in Dazhou, even if it is real, it will become Unrecognized fakes will be removed at that time, and it will be too late when Li Yuan reacts and sends someone to come over to confirm.
No, he had to send someone to protect him.
Zhou Fu paused for a moment, thinking deeply, if Emperor Zhou sent people directly, Li Jiancheng would be wary of him at that time, and he was ashamed to keep Li Jiancheng in Dazhou, if he wanted to inspect It is also very troublesome for the folks to have no suitable identity.Is there any way to keep both his own vest and Lanqin Garden, so as to temporarily stabilize the situation?
The envoy of the Tang State came outside the court and bluntly said that he wanted to meet Emperor Zhou.Regarding the death of their Tang prince, Da Zhou must give them an explanation.
Emperor Zhou scolded angrily: "A mere envoy dares to yell at me? Ask for an explanation, let your monarch personally send someone to discuss an explanation with me."
The envoy of the Tang Dynasty did not expect that Emperor Zhou would be so stubborn, so he got frustrated. He was not willing to spread rumors everywhere, but was arrested and thrown into prison.
Guan Zhong advised Emperor Zhou: "Is it wrong for Your Majesty to do this? If the Tang State receives news, I'm afraid they will turn against you."
"To intercept the unfavorable news from the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, I will personally write a letter to ask the king of Tang to send a new envoy to Zhou." The envoy behind the scenes didn't know that Li Jiancheng himself was now "in the hands" of Zhou Fu, and he only needed to delay it until Li Yuan sent a new envoy. It's no problem for people to come and claim it.
At the same time, Zhou Fuxiu wrote two letters, one was to call Tang envoys to Zhou, and the second was a secret letter, warning Li Yuan that there might be changes in the Tang Dynasty, and the real Li Jiancheng was not dead, just waiting for them to come to recognize him.
Then, Zhou Fu felt that he still wanted to order someone to investigate the case first.
So Zhou Fu wrote an imperial edict, specially ordering Prime Minister Tian Ji, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, to deal with this big case.
In addition, Gao Jianli must protect him.
Not long after, news of Zhou Fu was brought to Wenxin Village by the dark guards. He asked Jing Ke and others to protect Li Jiancheng first, and sent dark guards to hide in the dark.
Li Yuan, who was far away in the country of Tang, felt unbelievable when he received the news that his eldest son was hacked to death. He was deeply saddened. His eldest son, Bishamon, just disappeared?
What followed was a rage, wishing he could immediately send troops to avenge the eldest son.
"Your Majesty, don't be impulsive! If Zhou and Tang meet each other now, it will be a great disadvantage to Tang, and the rest of the princes will definitely attack!"
Liu Wenjing, a counselor next to Li Yuan, stopped the emotional Li Yuan and told him not to send troops immediately. He said seriously: "Your Majesty, the geographical location of Tang is too far away from Zhou, and it needs to pass through Qin and Jin. It is really not suitable to rush to send troops!"
Where did Li Yuan not know this truth?But Bishamon is his preferred future heir of the Tang Kingdom, he is the crowned prince of the Tang Kingdom, he was not valued in Zhou Dynasty, and even died of being hacked to death. How can he bear it as a father?
Queen Dou also persuaded Li Yuan, although the death of the eldest son was a heavy blow to Queen Dou, this intelligent and resolute woman judged the situation, and in order to estimate the power, she did not hesitate to use lies to appease the angry Li Yuan, in order to prevent Li Yuan from getting angry The idea of sending troops to Dazhou immediately.
"Your Majesty, Bishamon may not really be dead!" Empress Dou was heartbroken, and she tremblingly said: "It is said that mother and child are connected to each other. When Bishamon was young, he almost fell into the river. All my concubines could feel it at that time." The feeling of pain in my heart, I can sense that something happened to him, and I am panicked."
"Chen Qie felt uncomfortable for a while, but now he is fine. Therefore, Chen Qie feels that Bishamon will not die so easily. With his Bishamon's wisdom, it is very likely that when someone kills him, Just feign death and get away?" Empress Dou remonstrated with him with tears in her eyes, but in the end she shed tears.
It was Li Shimin who said to them: "Father and Queen Mother, please allow Li Shimin to go to Zhou to find his brother. No matter what happens to his brother, my son will bring him back!"
The eldest son, Li Shimin, is both civil and military, and has great wisdom. He is a brother of Li Jiancheng's compatriots. Queen Dou stopped him: "Bishamon is now in danger. If something happens to you, what should I do if I want to be the mother? You can't go there." , you can’t go there!” After speaking, Queen Dou was choked up.
Li Yuan wiped away his tears silently, and said to Li Shimin: "Your elder brother's life and death are unknown now, you must ensure your own safety, Da Zhou is dangerous, and now you don't know the attitude of Emperor Zhou, so don't mention the matter of going to Zhou anymore."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Zhou as an envoy," Li Yuan's second brother Li Zhan stood up.
"Second brother," Li Yuan said in surprise, "How can this be done? You are the king of Tang, how can you put yourself in danger?"
Li Zhan said sternly: "When Zhou ordered people to call Tang envoys into Zhou, he must have a valuable person to go. This is a major issue related to the two countries, and the life and death of the Tang prince is unknown. I must investigate. As for the danger and No, the minister is not the heir of the Tang Dynasty, so it is of no use, isn't it?"
Li Yuan was greatly moved by Li Zhan's awe-inspiring words, and sighed that the second brother was still willing to stand up now that he was in a dangerous situation.
In the end, Li Yuan agreed to Li Zhan's request, and Li Zhan took a thousand horses away, packed up a wave and went to Zhou.
The counselor said in a low voice: "I also ask the king to revise a letter and pass it to Qin King Fu Jian and Jin King Sima Zhong to escort the prince on the road."
"That's for sure!" Li Yuan answered seriously and thought for a while.
"Order the Tang army to gather at the border. If there is an accident, go to Zhou by way," Li Yuan said, "Both Qin and Yan will suffer from defeat, and they dare not stop the second brother."
After Li Zhan took the order to leave, Dazhou’s secret letter also arrived. Because of fears that there would be traitors in the Tang Kingdom, the secret agent selected the targets of the letter to be sent to the residences of the princes outside the Tang Palace. Li Shimin, the connected prince of the Qin Dynasty, became the target of the spy.
"Hey!" A servant poked his head from the stable, startling the sneaking spy.
The spy stared at him vigilantly, when did this person enter the stable?
"You are sneaky, what are you going to do?" The boy rushed out, and his strikes were like lightning, attacking the spy.
After beating back and forth a few times, the spies were horrified that there is such a master in the palace of Prince Qin's son!
The secret agent knew that he could not stay any longer, and had to retreat immediately, otherwise he would not be able to protect himself, and he could not complete the task, which delayed His Majesty's important affairs.
Unexpectedly, the young man walked past him, pinched a secret letter in his hand, he opened it to read, and muttered: "Eh? The secret letter written by Emperor Zhou to Old Man Li, how could it be sent to the Shizi's residence?"
The spy turned pale with fright, and wanted to snatch the letter from the young servant, but the young servant pushed aside the spy's attack two or three times, and said to him: "This is for Li Shimin, right? Don't worry, I'll help you deliver it, okay?" Now you can go."
The boy waved his hand and drove the spy away.
How could the spy trust him like that?Unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew by, and when he came back to his senses, he had already been thrown out of the mansion of King Qin Shizi.
The secret agent was stunned in shock, this, this is a rare master in the world, he must report to His Majesty immediately!
After Li Shimin returned to the mansion, a disgraceful young man ran towards him in a hurry. Li Shimin was in a heavy heart because of the murder of his elder brother. At this time, the two brothers had not fallen out because of the conflict of interests. He still respected and loved Li Jiancheng as the elder brother. of.
"Wu Xu, what are you doing?" Li Shimin was in a bad mood, he was not willing to coax the naughty boy who was temporarily staying at his house, he yelled angrily.
Wu Xu stopped in her tracks, curling her lips aggrievedly.
"What are you doing, you are in a bad mood to vent your anger on other people's children?" Changsun heard the voice and came over to check, seeing Li Shimin angrily scolding the boy, she was not happy, what's wrong with the little girl being more lively and cute?
Li Shimin didn't hate his own wife, he rubbed his forehead and said to Changsun: "Today my father declared me to enter the palace. There was news from Da Zhou that my elder brother was arrested and killed in Zhou."
Changsun said in astonishment: "How could this be? Where are the hidden guards protecting eldest brother?"
"There has been no news yet," Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "Wei Zheng went to Dazhou with elder brother, but the letter sent by the Tang envoy this time does not contain Wei Zheng's personal letter."
Wu Xu looked around and saw that they completely ignored her, and her arrogant temper came up. Except for the master, no one in this world would dare to scold her!She smeared the letter on Li Shimin's face, angrily said: "Look for yourself, big villain!" Then she turned and ran away.
Li Shimin's face hurt from being slapped, and he was furious. He said that the child was so stubborn. He took down the paper, his eyes fell on the letter, and looked at it suspiciously.
Seeing Li Shimin's shocked face showing joy, Changsun asked concerned: "What's wrong? But what's the good news?"
"Brother is not dead!" Li Shimin wished he could go to the palace to see Li Yuan immediately, he stopped for a moment, and thought deeply: "No, I will go to the palace quietly at night, the letter said that there are traitors in the Tang Dynasty who want to assassinate brother, I have to be more careful, Don't let the news get out."
The Changsun family will not gossip, and Li Shimin knew that he was worried about that brat Wu Xu, "Please also ask Guanyin Maid to watch Wu Xu, and don't let him gossip around."
Changsun said helplessly: "Don't worry, Ah Xu won't talk nonsense."
"You know how to pamper him, why don't you pamper Gao Ming (Li Chengqian) and do good to (Li Zhi) them," Li Shimin complained.
Changsun felt helpless with Li Shimin's lame eyes. Didn't he realize that Ah Xu is a girl?
What's more, Wei Shan likes A Xu, so she has to help Wei Shan trick A Xu into their house!
Li Shimin took advantage of the night to enter the palace, and told the happy event to Li Yuan and Queen Dou, who were in the palace in grief and sleepless.
"Father, please allow the child to secretly go to Dazhou to welcome back brother!" Li Shimin asked again.
Queen Dou wiped her tears, and said bitterly: "I didn't expect that there would be a traitor in the Tang Dynasty to kill Bishamon."
"You want to take the secret guards and go to Da Zhou to look for Bishamon incognito?" Li Yuan pondered.
"Yes," Li Shimin insisted, he firmly believed that he would be able to bring the eldest brother back!
"When you go over there, don't contact the Tang envoy, find the hidden guards around Bishamon as soon as possible to investigate the situation, and ask your second uncle if you have any questions," Li Yuan relented, and he ordered.
"No!" Queen Dou sternly said, "Don't trust anyone. Now that you don't know who the traitor is, do you know how dangerous the enemy is while you are in the dark? Even your second uncle, don't trust him!"
"Second brother is a righteous man, how could he be a traitor?" Li Yuan scolded, "A woman's opinion."
Queen Dou now looks like a traitor to everyone. She told Li Shimin that after finding Li Jiancheng, she would leave immediately and come back secretly. Emperor Zhou would send someone to send this letter. It must be the whereabouts of Li Jiancheng. Queen Dou knew that there was no way to stop Li Shimin from entering Zhou. , I could only drag him to talk about my worries.
After comforting Queen Dou, Li Shimin returned home overnight to pack up his things and prepare to go on the road. Changsun prepared his luggage for him. She is the woman behind Li Shimin and his strong backing. She is gentle and strong. Her greatness left a lasting mark in Chinese history Brilliant record, known as the benchmark of the emperor's wife.
"Be careful on the road, the children and I will wait for you to come back."
"Don't worry, Guanyin servant girl, I will take care of myself."
In order to enter Zhou in a low-key manner, Li Shimin only took away ten elites, and the rest of the hidden guards dispersed and sneaked in one after another, and joined them after Zhou.
Wu Xu fell far behind, flirting with another man.
"Are you going to let it go, are you going to let it go?" Wu Xu glared at this disloyal subordinate with his heroic eyebrows horizontally.
"Are you really going to Dazhou?" The subordinate made a bitter face, and sighed that the aunt kept going.
"Sure!" Wu Xu said as a matter of course: "Should I leave and stay in the Shizi's mansion and be pestered by a sissy?"
The corner of the subordinate's mouth twitched when he heard the words. Li Zhi admired you wholeheartedly. He tried you many times, wrote poems for you and gave you handkerchiefs, but you said that he was a sissy. He especially wanted to ask Wu Xu, are you right? woman?
Li Zhi fainted from crying in the toilet.
The subordinates couldn't hold her back, and the boss she was looking for had to follow to the end even on her knees!
On Zhou Fu's side, Lan Qinyuan and other arrested people did not suffer through secret personal relationships. Tian Ji was summoned by His Majesty and asked him to delay as much as possible. Although he didn't know why, he didn't dare to ask more questions. Arrange the case in a timely manner, and when the envoy asks about it, he just shirks it with sloppy eyes.
"How did he die? Wu Zuo is still conducting an autopsy, and there is no result yet."
"Oh? Who said it was the people from Lanqin Garden who killed it? I only look at the evidence when handling the case."
"Whoever spreads rumors again will be arrested and brought to justice immediately."
A stern and selfless official like Tian Ji would offend a lot of people, but with Zhou Emperor covering his head, he is now a big celebrity in the court of Emperor Zhou, no one would dare to touch Tian Ji's bad luck.
Tian Ji is not the kind of official who would abuse people by lynching. He is good at observing the scene, discusses with Wu after conducting autopsies, and finally draws a conclusion.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince of Tang died at the hands of a woman," Tian Ji implored to meet Emperor Zhou and present the result.
"Oh? How do you know that?" Zhou Fu asked doubtfully, "The corpse has been stabbed several times, which one is the fatal injury?"
Tian Ji said respectfully: "An ordinary man would not stab a grown man to death with dozens of strokes, but the first stroke was to stab the prince of the Tang Dynasty in the abdomen. It must have been stabbed for a moment when the two of them were hugging and took advantage of his unawares." In this way, it must be a woman who can face the prince of the Tang Dynasty face to face."
"Then what about the dishcloth that Prince Tang mentioned? How can this be explained?"
"After the woman stabbed the prince of the Tang Dynasty, she found that he was not dead after falling to the ground. Instead, she wanted to cry out. In desperation, she covered his mouth with her hands and stuffed a cloth into his mouth." Tian Ji talked freely. : "The minister and Wu Zuo found blood and skin in the mouth of the Tang prince. It must be that he bit the flesh of the woman's palm while struggling."
"So, the murderer must be the woman who was bitten on the palm of her hand!" Zhou Fu's eyes lit up, and he said.
"That's right, there is no one in the prison with a wounded palm, so the murderer is not a person in Lanqin Garden, and has already escaped." Tian Ji affirmed: "Everyone in Lanqin Garden is implicated. is innocent."
Zhou Fu thought about it for a while, then shook his head lightly: "Let's wait for a while, I think that if the scapegoat is not seen being tried, the murderer will not let it go, and it is very likely that he will act again to show his flaws."
Tian Ji was surprised for a moment, and called out to Your Majesty, he didn't expect this, he hesitated and said, "It's just that the innocent people who are implicated are in vain to be imprisoned."
"Please trouble Mr. Tian to improve the prison environment for them," Zhou Fu crazily suggested to Tian Ji.
Tian Ji naturally agreed. His justice made him know that he was wrong when facing the innocent and troubled people, but his loyalty and wisdom let him know that His Majesty's thinking was correct. Now it would be great if he could make some material compensation. .
After Tian Ji left, Zhou Fu let out a sigh of relief, "Let Gao Jianli and the others live in prison for now. The Wenxin villagers don't act rashly for the time being. I want to see if the people behind the scenes have other methods?"
"In the current situation, it is safer to be in the prison. Your Majesty can go out and catch the tail of the person behind the scenes." Zhao Gao comforted Zhou Fu and said, "Young Master Gao will not blame you for this."
"It's because I know he won't blame me that I feel sorry," Zhou Fu stroked his chin, and wrote a secret edict: "You send this to Tian Ji."
The current case is under further investigation, and it is true that Gao Jianli and others cannot be released temporarily.
Gao Jianli lived in the prison, and the guards were polite to him and even bought him a drink.
He has stayed everywhere in his life, but now he is living in a prison for the first time, and his life experience is quite good?
Gao Jianli was confused, this prison was completely different from what he had imagined.Gao Jianli caressed the soft and warm pile of straw, he was wearing a new and clean prison uniform, and the prison guard and Yan Yuese sent meat and vegetable meals.He was very puzzled, how could this be going to jail!This is a blessing, right?According to the current treatment, the crime rate in Dazhou will rise!
Could it be that the son's interpersonal relationship is so strong?Gao Jianli murmured in his heart, even Mr. Tian, an upright and honest official, opened the door for them, which is really amazing!
Zhou Fu tried his best to find out the secrets of the black hands behind the scenes. People said that the more he did, the more mistakes he made. Now he can be sure that anyone who can get in touch with the Tang prince in Lanqin Garden, even if it is a fake prince, must be a fake prince. He is a descendant of Da Zhou's clan!
Zhou Fu used the deletion method to check out one by one. The mastermind behind the scenes felt the sense of urgency brought by Emperor Zhou, and finally couldn't help it, and made another move.
He wants Emperor Zhou to be in a state of desperation, and Emperor Zhou has no time to use his avatar to investigate the clues he accidentally left behind!
Since then, the king of Zhou began to have rumors and rumors, spreading the news that the emperor of Zhou was about to draft, many ministers were moved by this, and they were encouraged to persuade the emperor of Zhou.
"Your Majesty, the harem should not be empty, and the emperor should not favor only one person!" The courtiers began to suggest that the Emperor Zhou accept the harem under the fanning of the people behind him.
Zhou Fule laughed, when Grandmother Rong was around, he might still compromise and rely on her, but now that he has the power in his hands, there is no oppression by the elders in the harem, is it necessary to make troubles?
When a normal king hears about the draft, most of them agree. Who doesn't like beauties in the world?What Gongsun Yan has to do now is to make the relationship between the emperor and the empress stiff, and also to separate the relationship between Emperor Zhou and the Zhou family. Who told Lanqin Garden to be opened by the Zhou family?With such a big trouble lying in the way, wouldn't Emperor Zhou have a grudge against the queen?
Gongsun Yan was always paying attention to Emperor Zhou's reaction, just waiting for the opportunity to send the foreign dancer he had trained/taught into the palace.
Then Zhou Fu swiped his pen and rejected them all!
"What are you guys doing staring at my backyard after being full all day long? I am so in love with the queen and want you to send my concubine? Since you are all so free, then I will find something for you to do." !"
You, aren't you from the Ministry of Industry?Hurry up, renovate the streets in the south of the city, tidy up and create a market.
Are you not a civil servant?In charge of education, I order you to compile Taixue books, if there is no result, you are not allowed to publish it.
Are you not a military officer?Military officer so free?Go back to training, I want you to take the soldiers to work, the increase in military pay is not for you to eat!
Those white-faced courtiers who were jumping up and down got their noses ashes again, so they must be listless.
Zhou Fu slapped those people who danced happily, and arranged a bunch of overtime tasks, which can be regarded as making those people honest.
"Really, I don't know what to draw. My daughter doesn't cherish it well, so she will be sent to the imperial palace to be tortured." Zhou Fu complained, "It's all about what I think."
Zhao Gao moved his mouth and sighed deeply: "Your Majesty! There are so many riches and honors that people want to sharpen their heads and drill into it!"
"Even if you know it's a waste of time to come in, you still want to waste your life in it for nothing?"
"Sometimes, what I'm most afraid of is the two words, what if it's chosen, what if it's chosen by His Majesty?" Zhao Gao said quietly.
"I won't take a fancy to them," Zhou Fu murmured, "Who would take a fancy to a female cat? I'm not a bird/beast?"
"Your Majesty, Tang Guolai has replied," Zhao Gao said to Zhou Fu after receiving the notification from his subordinates, and then he opened the urgent letter sent by Li Yuan's envoy.
"Shu King Li Zhan is on his way to Zhou?" Zhou Fu said in surprise, "If you count the days, he should have reached the Qin-Jin border, right?"
"Xuan Zhou envoy comes in."
Zhou envoys are the fastest and best riders in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The speed of delivery is required to be fast, there must be no delay on the way, and the requirements for physical fitness are very high.
"Your Majesty, the King of Shu has arrived with a thousand cavalry." The envoy of Zhou said respectfully to Emperor Zhou after entering the palace.
"A thousand cavalry?" Zhou Fu was surprised: "According to the past practice, can the princes bring a thousand cavalry into the capital?"
Zhao Gao's eyes flickered, and he asked: "There have been such examples in the past, but in the current situation, is it too dangerous for a thousand cavalrymen from other countries to enter the capital of the King of Zhou?"
Zhou Fu thought about it, and then asked: "The spy who sent the secret letter is back?"
"I think it should be within a few days?" Zhao Gao asked, "Is Your Majesty going to announce him to the palace?"
"As soon as he comes back, ask about the situation in Tang Country," Zhou Fu nodded, and let the envoy go back.
"Is it the border between Qin and Jin? It seems that we will be able to reach Jin tomorrow, will Sima Zhong let him come?" Zhou Fu muttered a few words, and he planned to go and see for himself.
At this moment, Zhou Fu felt that the trumpet is really a convenient thing!
