Chapter 84 The Mance of Shang

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless. Even if they are the decisive people of the Empress Dowager Wu, there is also softness in their hearts. Although there are not many, they still exist in the end. He Lanmin is undoubtedly a concern in the hearts of the Queen Wu. His status in the eyes of the Queen Wu is better than that of the princes, even if He Lan Minzhi is really a dunuch, but Queen Wu has never blamed her wayward behavior. On the contrary, every time she covers up or takes care of He Lanmin's evil deeds, it can be said that her care is meticulous. In terms of the fundamentals, I'm afraid that it is not only because of her deep relationship with her sister Wu Shun, but also because of He. Lan Minzhi's handsome image is just a kind of thought of Wuhou.

If it is possible, Empress Wu really doesn't want He Lanmin to be hurt. However, feelings belong to feelings. In major events, it is impossible for Wu Hou to be influenced by feelings. When it is time to kill, there will be no hesitation, let alone soft hands. However, after the incident, guilt is inevitable, even if it is not much, but There are still some. This is the reason why Queen Wu has been fooling with He Lanmin these days, but she has never shown up. However, today, Queen Wu can't show up. There is nothing else. Just because Gaozong, who has just recovered from illness, has an edict to set up a spiritual hall for the Korean wife and daughter in the palace, and also wants to meet He Lanminzhi. He Lanmin is deeply afraid of He Lanmin. The Empress Wu, who caused an accident in front of the holy driver, had to move in person.

"Sir, come on, get up, my aunt will make the decision for you." The strange color in Queen Wu's eyes just flashed by, and soon she regained her clarity. She bent down, patted He Lanmin's constantly moving shoulder, and gently persuaded her.

"My mother, my nephew hurts, my mother..." Although He Lanmin knelt up obediently, the tears in her eyes still surged like a spring. She looked up at Queen Wu and cried sadly.

"Don't cry, my aunt's heart is also in pain. Alas, my sister and Yue'er died in the hands of the villain, aunt..." When Queen Wu said this, her eyes turned red, and tears were about to come out. She choked and couldn't continue. The aunt and nephews cried each other, and at that time, all the eunuchs and court ladies who accompanied her were confused. With their hands and feet, but no one dares to persuade each other. They can only look at each other in con'sinuation.

"Mother, my mother and sister have always been kind-hearted and never argue with others. Why did they die so tragically? My nephew is puzzled, my mother, why is this..." The more He Lanmin cried, the more sad she became. At the end, there was a sense of accountability in her words.

"Don't worry, this case has been solved, the first rebellion has been killed, and the rebellion will be eliminated to comfort the sister and the spirit of the moon in heaven. Come on, get up, your majesty wants to see you, and you must not lose your courtesy. Otherwise, your aunt can't protect you. Come on, wait for the child to bathe and change clothes!" Hearing He Lanmin's words, the more presumptuous he became. Wu Hou's eyes were already shining, but he did not blame He Lanmin's Meng Lang. Instead, he gently persuaded him a few words and issued an order in an unquestionable tone. The eunuchs and maids who were waiting beside him rushed up, regardless of whether He Lanmin was willing or not, they stood up. He got up and helped him to the apse.

Perhaps because of the presence of Queen Wu, He Lanminzhi did not have any rude behavior. He just sobbed in a low voice and let a group of eunuchs help him into the back hall. However, as soon as he turned the dark place of a porch, He Lanminzhi suddenly showed a strange smile at the corners of his mouth, and there was a little ferocious inside. Ferocious, a little resentment, and a little determination. As for why he laughed, only the last day knew...

I don't know when the sky was overcast again, the clouds were very low, the lightning jumped from time to time, and the thunder moved faintly. The first heavy rain of this spring was about to fall. There was no light in the spacious hall. It was dim and difficult to see, but Li Xian didn't mind at all. There is no intention to order people to light the lamp. They sit alone in front of a few pieces, staring at the endgame on the pieces thoughtfully, and holding a chess piece in his hand, as if they are thinking about the game, but in fact, their heart is no longer in chess.

Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the rebirth has been more than a year, and the experience is not a few. It's time to summarize it. Especially when there will be great changes in the direction of the situation, Li Xian can't help but think carefully about how to go in the future - that's right, this In the past year, Li Xian has done a lot of things secretly, and has also made some modifications to the original historical trend. It can even be said that he has made some progress. However, Li Xian himself is very sober. Just because the overall situation has not changed fundamentally, the situation is still very serious.

It's a pity, I'm really sorry. Li Xian is deeply sorry for not being able to save He Lanminyue. It's a pity that it has happened. No matter how much I think about it, it's in vain. Li Xian is very sober. The trouble is that with the death of He Lanminyue's mother and daughter, no one in the harem can control the martial arts queen. After this great change, Gao Zong's already weak body is bound to further deteriorate, followed by the rise of the power of the Queen Wu again. This trend seems to be unstoppable. How to respond has become the first question for Li Xian to consider.

In Li Xian's view, the Empress Wu can hold the government on three legs. It is obviously unincontemplable for Li Xian to hold the emperor in the palace. Not to mention Li Xian, it is difficult for Gao Zong to do anything when he knows that the Empress Wu is wild. At most, he tries his best to support the prince to curb the growing ambition of the Empress Wu. The problem is that history has proved that this road doesn't work at all - although the prince is virtuous, it is a pity that his means are not fierce enough. In the end, he can't escape such a result. As for the second leg of the Wu Hou, it is the gang of villain officials of Dali Temple. At this point, Li Xian can try to use the prince and gradually destroy the Dali Temple. Of course, even if Li Xian does not promote it, the prince will never sit back and see such an important institution in the hands of the Empress Wu. A fierce fight is inevitable. Although the victory or defeat is still unpredictable, Li Xian is not too worried. Li Xian is not without the courage to do what was framed, let alone that. Helping the officials of Dali Temple is not a seamless egg in itself. It is still very easy to pick out some problems. What really gives Li Xian a headache is precisely the North Gate bachelor who has just emerged and has not yet become a big climate.

The North Gate bachelors, led by Liu Yizhi, Zhou Simao, Fan Lubing, Wei Jingye and others, can only be regarded as a new rise now. Although they have been promoted by the martial arts queen during the seal of Taishan, after all, the foundation of these civil servants is relatively shallow. At present, they can only be regarded as a group of middle-level officials at most, and it seems difficult to sing in the overall situation of the court. It is difficult to attract the vigilance of the boss in the court, but Li Xian knows how harmful the North Gate bachelor is. As early as Luoyang, Li Xian has been thinking about how to disintegrate or even eradicate this cancer. For Li Xian, the importance of the North Gate bachelor is actually far better than the villains of the Inner Palace and Dali Temple. Officials, the reason is very simple. Although the character of this group of shameless literati is poor, their writings are very hard. When creating public opinion, they really have the ability to turn the world upside down on, and they can't be regarded as idle - Li Xian's own writing is only average, but after experiencing the polishing of later officialdom, he is familiar with how to guide public opinion and even build momentum. Very, in addition, there are countless quintessential articles of descendants in his stomach, which may not be afraid of these group of shameless literati. The problem is that Li Xian himself has made a posture of abandoning literature and martial arts, and is bound to be unable to make amazing moves in literature. Besides, as a prince, Li Xian is not good to directly come forward with a group of low-ranking civil servants. In this way, how to suppress these North Gate bachelors has become a big trouble.

Talents, in the final analysis, there is still a shortage of talents! Li Xian knows what his shortcomings are, but unfortunately he can't solve this problem for a while. Of course, if the imperial examination can be run well, this problem is bound to be greatly alleviated. It's just that it is so difficult to change through the imperial examination in the Korean parliament. It's not as simple to say. At the time of Hangu Pass, Li Xian once confidently persuaded Li Xian to cooperate. In fact, it was just to aspire Li Xian's confidence. When it comes to the court, there must be a fight. Whether you can get what you want is still between the two.

"Seventh brother, why don't you even light the light?"

At Li Xian's mouth with mixed thoughts, a burst of footsteps sounded. Li Xian, the king of Lu with a spring breeze, led several close eunuchs strode in from outside the hall. When he saw Li Xian sitting alone in the dark, he couldn't help laughing and asked casually.

"Brother Six, look at your face. Everything must be going well."

Li Xian looked back at Li Xian and saw that he looked good. He bent the corners of his mouth and replied with a smile.

"Palm lamp!"

Li Xian smiled and did not answer Li Xian's words immediately. Instead, he waved his hand casually and ordered a group of eunuchs to light up the oil lamps and candles on the lamppost. He strode to several people and sat down. He stretched out and said pleasantly, "For my brother, I met a person before. Guess who it is. What is it?"

What are you talking about? There are a lot of people who can meet in this place. Guess what! Li Xian secretly slandered himself, but his face was still full of smiles. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Brother Six is joking. I'm not a fairy. How can you guess the root? Brother Six still said it directly."

"Ha ha, so that the seventh brother learned that when his brother was talking with his father, his mother personally accompanied He Lanmin into the hall. The seventh brother, guess what's wrong with this guy?" Li Xian waved his hand with a smile and said He Lanmin's name, but in the end, he still sold a key. Obviously, Li Xian's mood was really better.

He Lan Minzhi? Hey, it's this boy. Well, I think that mother-in-law is going to compensate this boy in a changed way! Li Xian was well aware of the extent to which He Lanminzhi was favored by the Queen of Wu. As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, he had guessed a general idea. However, Li Xian did not intend to say anything about it, but made a doubtful look. He looked at Li Xian and asked hesitantly, "Is it the Queen Mother who asked for her?"

"Well, where did the seventh brother go? Hey, the mother proposed that He Lanmin be the prisoner and behead the sons of Erwu were all men. All the women and children were rewarded to He Lanmin as slaves. The father agreed. At this time, I'm afraid the edict has been drawn up." Li Xian laughed and revealed the mystery.

So that's it. Ha, that's also very interesting, He Lanmin? Interesting, very interesting! Thinking of He Lanmin's evil deeds in his previous life, Li Xian's heart moved. He had some complaints, but he didn't say it, but laughed with Li Xian...
