[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 19 Relatives 14

Wang, Xiao,

Isn't it the Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao who were demoted to common people before?

She had forgotten that Ye Ting Palace was not only a collective dormitory for low-level concubines, but also a place of detention for those who committed crimes.

"Could it be that this matter has something to do with both Wang and Xiao?" Wu Xu is a pure man after all. Hearing that Li Xiaojiu went to visit his ex-wife and concubine, the first thing that comes to mind is not the revival of the old relationship, but immediately thinks of the family behind the two. What role did they play in this incident.

The Wang family and the Xiao family are both well-known big families in the whole country. Although their daughters were kicked out of the thrones of queens and noble concubines, they did not hurt the roots of their respective families at all. Especially right now, the harem of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu is empty. Just send one or two family women into the palace!

And Wu Xu, a new queen with a shallow background, inevitably became a thorn in the eyes of these people.

Coupled with the fact that Uncle Changsun broke with Li Xiaojiu, Li Zhi lost the support of such a powerful relative as Changsun, Wang and Xiao... even many aristocratic families are secretly trying to move...

The centipede is dead but not stiff. Li Xiaojiu was not able to hit a stick before. Both the Wang family and the Xiao family were beaten to death and maimed. Those aristocratic families thought that Li Xiaojiu was afraid of them. It is also expected that his power will make a comeback thing.

However, it was beyond Wu Xu's expectation that Uncle Changsun would degenerate into cooperating with the aristocratic family.

At first, Li Zhi saw Wu Xu's unpredictable expression, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Later, he heard that she didn't pay attention to the Wang and Xiao families at all, but directly asked about the Wang and Xiao families, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

"It's hard to draw a conclusion on this matter now, I believe Dalang and the others will come to the conclusion soon..." However, no matter whether these people are playing tricks behind the scenes, he doesn't intend to let it go easily!

Wu Xu could tell from Li Zhi's expression that he had made up his mind, and couldn't help but ask, "Jiu Lang, you also went to Yeting for this matter?" What did Xiao's two do, but in this way, it seemed that she didn't trust each other.

Theoretically speaking, the Wang family and the Xiao family have become ordinary people, and they no longer pose a threat to Wu Xu, but judging from the current situation, these two people are still unstable factors in the palace.

Needless to say, Mrs. Wang, she has been married to Li Zhi for so many years, and has been in the harem for a long time. If she doesn't plant a few nails in the palace and gather a few confidantes who are determined, even a three-year-old child will not believe it.

What's more, the Wang family is undefeated. Although there is no Queen Wang, as long as they are given time to recover, the Wang family will soon appear in the court and even control the harem.

And the Xiao family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He can safely raise three children and a son who is a king. How could he be willing to stay in Yeting Palace for a lifetime?

How did Mrs. Qi in the Han Dynasty die? No need for popular science, right?

And Li Xiaojiu's next words completely confirmed Wu Xu's speculation.

"Today I went to the courtyard where Wang and Xiao were imprisoned...they are doing well..." Although they are no longer well-dressed, no one dares to abuse them, after all, their families are still behind standing.Apart from losing their freedom, the two of them also had no worries about food and clothing. They lived much more comfortably than women from ordinary people's families!

The arrival of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu made Wang and Xiao very surprised and had different thoughts.

"Ms. Xiao weeps and repents, begging for forgiveness..." Li Zhi now thinks of the scene at that time, and finds it very ironic, because he once thought that Xiao was a well-educated and reasonable woman, versatile, gentle and considerate, a bit like the old woman. Concubine Xu Xian's appearance, unexpectedly, all of this is just an illusion...

Perhaps, in this world, there is only his Ah Wu who is always the strongest military wife in front of him!

When Wu Xu first heard Li Xiaojiu say that Xiao was crying and begging, he couldn't help feeling tense.

In all fairness, Wu Xu never thought of killing these two women with his own hands, even though they attacked her and her children many times, and indirectly caused the death of Xiao Sanniang...

However, in order to have peace in the backyard of the palace in the future, so that Li Xiaojiu and her don't have to be distracted to guard against changes in the palace, these two women have to get rid of them!

Although cruel, it is the truth.

Wu Xu felt that it would be fine for her to kill the two men, but she couldn't do it to the two helpless girls...

And Li Xiaojiu had shared the same bed with the two for so many years, probably even more ruthless?

"Did the sage forgive Xiao?" Wu Xu couldn't help asking.

Hearing the words, the young man looked at Wu Xu for a long time before saying, "What do you think?"

Wu Xu couldn't help but black line.

You ask me, who do I ask?

Who knows if you will suddenly take pity on the fragrance and cherish the jade, and agree to let the Xiao family return to the harem from the grassroots? !

Wu Xu's angry appearance obviously pleased His Majesty Li Xiaojiu.

He couldn't help but continue to provoke someone: "There is a saying that knowing the mistakes can make things better. I think the two of them have sincerely repented...so... let them..."

"You let them out of Qiutong Palace?" Wu Xu couldn't help being anxious.

"How could it be?" His Majesty Li Xiaojiu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said slowly, "I just asked people to change the courtyard where they lived into 'Huixin Garden'..." The young man spread his hands, indicating that he was laying bait to catch big fish. fish too!

Both of them have entered the cold palace, and they can still communicate with people outside the palace. There must be people in the middle, and he must get rid of them all.

Wu Xu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth when he saw Li Xiaojiu's expression of "We have sacrificed our looks to get information, why don't you praise him quickly"...

"The sage has worked hard..." Well, sometimes it is okay to use the beauty trick, the question is what useful information did you get, sage? !

"I don't know what confidential matter the sage heard from the two of them?"

Li Zhi pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "The rumor is indeed related to Uncle, which is beyond my expectation..." Although Wang concealed it very well, he just tried it a little, and he understood everything: The Wang family has secretly reached a certain agreement with his uncle. Through the power of the grandson family, the Wang family's children will be allowed to enter the court, and then the Wang family's daughters will be recommended to the harem...

Really good calculation!

When he this saint is dead? !

"Then... Helan..." Wu Xu wanted to ask why they attacked little Helan, but as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she suddenly understood: Isn't this just killing people to silence them? !By the way, she can also frame her as the new queen!

Wu Xu only felt a wave of anger welling up from the bottom of her heart...

Seeing Wu Xu's expression, Li Zhi knew that she had already figured out the general situation, so he couldn't help but hold her hand and said, "It's all because of me, I made you feel wronged, I..."

"That's right, it's all your fault!" Wu Xu glared at Li Xiaojiu bitterly, and asked angrily, "Now that you know who did it, what are you going to do?"

Wu family brothers, Wang family, Xiao family and so on are not big problems, the problem is how to deal with uncle grandson and those aristocratic families?

Now is not the time to uproot them and make their way to the top!

Li Zhi smiled when he heard the words, and said leisurely: "Of course there is no need to investigate the case anymore, let's close it like this..."

"The most urgent thing is to think about what year name we should choose for the new year, and the issue of Da Lang's entry into the East Palace..."

Seeing Li Xiaojiu gossip about him, Wu Xu guessed that he must have made up his mind, and didn't ask in detail.

But Wu Xu couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard that she was asked to help get the year name.

All the great writers and scholars in the whole dynasty are free-spirited, right? !

She is semi-literate okay!

The year name of the new year was finally determined before Zhengdan, and it was called Xianqing.

In the seventh year of Yonghui, the Yuan was officially changed to the first year of Xianqing.

Soon after the Spring Festival, the crown prince canonization ceremony was grandly held in Tai Chi Palace.

Civil and military officials of the ninth rank and above will be given a rank of honored officer, and they will be amnesiaed for three days, and the world will be amnesty at the same time.

In addition, because the old man Yu Zhining maintained a neutral attitude during the process of canonizing Wu Xu as the queen, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu specially asked him to stay in the post of Taifu and continue to teach the new prince Li Hong in the East Palace. Li Yifu was awarded the brand-new position of Prince's guest, as the chief staff member of Li Hong's children.There are also Han Yuan, Lai Ji and others who are also holding posts in the East Palace. His Majesty Li Xiaojiu has given a few steps to the ministers in the cabinet—however, it is not known whether the other party appreciates it.

After all, Han Yuan, Lai Ji and others did not have the status of assistant ministers and the double amulet of the country's uncle like Changsun Wuji, so they could only accept His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's conferment silently, and they took the initiative to return to the court to work after the New Year.

Non-violence and non-cooperation are completely useless to His Majesty Li Xiaojiu. Don’t you see that within two months after the two claimed to be ill, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu slipped Du Zhenglun, who was implicated in the treason case and demoted him, into the Political Affairs Hall to act as a council member for them.

After the new crown prince came to power, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu simply made Du Zhenglun regular, conferred the title of Minister of Huangmen and Tongzhongshumen, and formally entered the cabinet.

At this point, the pattern in which the elder Sun Wuji overshadowed the sky with one hand in the political affairs hall was officially broken.

Among the existing prime ministers, Changsun Wuji was outraged with the sage publicly, claiming to be ill and compiling the "History of the Five Dynasties" at home, ignoring the government affairs, and Han Yuan and Lai Ji had completely lost their leaders.

The rest, Li Ji, was smooth and good at Tai Chi, and he was on the side of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu at critical moments; Zhongshuling Cui Dunli, who had already been in a semi-retired state due to his age and frailty, was also a hardcore imperial party, who was usually silent, The kind that jumps out to defend orthodoxy at critical times.Du Zhenglun, who joined the cabinet recently, originally belonged to Chengqian's party, and belonged to the group of people who were mistreated by Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, so it is naturally impossible to be of one mind with Han Yuan and the others - it would be good not to seek revenge!

The changes in the Six Departments were also quite large. Most of the officials who were attached to Changsun Wuji were transferred away from the key departments. Don't be impatient to reply, I don't know what the eldest grandson is planning...

In February of the first year of Xianqing, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu suddenly decreed to change "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" to "The Music of God's Breaking the Array".

After these two decrees, Grandson Xianggong really couldn't sit still, and immediately replied that Han Yuan and others will return to the court in a few days.

In the end, before Han Yuan and the others were happy, bad news came from the harem: the common people Wang and Xiao died suddenly overnight!

The author has something to say: two lunch boxes =. =

Uncle Changsun couldn't bear it any longer...
