Chapter 756 Imperial Dispute

Just after the Lantern Festival, although the snow has stopped and the weather has signs of warming up, it is still very cold. This is really too difficult for Gao Zong, who is afraid of cold and afraid of heat. He has been sick since the beginning of winter. Now not only has it not improved, but it is a little more serious. He coughing and gasps, he can't get up completely. During the day, he can only lie on the hot couch sickly, accompanied by all kinds of soups and medicine. His spirit is very poor. His face is thin and his face is as white as paper. Even the cough and gasps that sound from time to time are particularly weak. That kind of haggard appearance is really unbearable to be seen.

"Your Majesty, the Empress is here."

Just as Gao Zong's cough had just subsided, Liu Ruming, the deputy eunuch of Zichen Hall, hurriedly turned out from behind the screen and grabbed the front of the bed. He looked at Gao Zong with concern and carefully reported.

"Hmm."

Gao Zong raised his hand weakly, waved it casually, and muttered vaguely. It seemed that he was not reluctant to meet Wu Hou at this time.

"The Empress is here!"

Whether Gao Zong is willing or not, there is really no place in this harem that the Empress Wu can't reach. Well, before Liu Ruming goes out to call, with a shout, the Empress Wu, whose face is like water, has led a large group of eunuchs and court ladies to pour into the bedroom.

"My concubine knocked to see your majesty."

Although Queen Wu was in a state of anger, she was not disappointed in courtesy. She walked slowly to the front of the couch and saluted, but her tone was obviously not as peaceful as in the past, with a strong resentment.

"Mei Niang is coming, sit down, sit down."

Gao Zong was seriously ill and had a severe headache. He didn't notice that Wuhou's tone was a little wrong. He raised his hand weakly and greeted dryly.

"Your Majesty, something big has happened in the Duhufu. The Turks have rebelled, and the twenty-four states of the military company have insulted the country. The situation is almost rotten."

After Wu Hou got up, he did not take a seat, but the general reported the news with a gloomy face.

"Ah, what? When did it happen? I, cough, cough..."

As soon as he heard the Turkic rebellion, Gao Zong was shocked. Huo Ran sat up straight and shouted repeatedly, even if he was stimulated by the disordered breath and coughed wildly.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, this morning's matter, my concubine originally wanted to agree on the countermeasures with the political affairs hall, and then report it to your majesty, but..., alas..."

The Empress Wu stretched out her hand to help Gao Zong pat her back and said in a sad tone. Finally, she let out a long sigh full of humiliation, as if she had really suffered a great grievance.

"Hmm?"

Seeing that the Empress Wu looked so, Gao Zong, who stopped coughing, couldn't help but be suspicious, and said with doubt.

"Your Majesty, my concubine just wanted to share the worries for your majesty, but I didn't expect him. Alas, he rushed in angrily and criticized my concubine in front of Zhu Zaifu, concubine, concubine..."

Wuhou was a master of acting. Before he could say anything, tears had flowed out first. As he spoke, he choked and was speechless.

"This, this..."

Gao Zong was originally afraid of his master. When he saw that the Empress Wu was sad, he was confused and didn't know what to say.

"The prince and the political assistants are looking for a meeting outside the hall."

Just as Gao Zong was anxious and didn't know what to do, he saw Liu Ruming turn back from the outside and reported loudly, which was a relief for Gao Zong.

"Xuan, cough, Xuan!"

In the end, the conflict between Empress Wu and the prince was deliberately promoted by Gao Zong himself in order to seek a balance. This original intention is undoubtedly good. Unfortunately, when the two strong people come together, there is no possibility of compromise with each other. Naturally, the struggle has become more and more fierce. Now, Gao Zong is No matter how much I think about it, there is no possibility. This time I saw the end of Queen Wu, I didn't stop. Li Xian had followed him back and forth. Gao Zong couldn't help but be a little more anxious, but he couldn't say that he didn't see it. After all, the military affairs of the country had to be ignored. No matter how annoyed he was, Gao Zong could only be helpless.

"No!"

Since Gao Zong had given the edict, Liu Ruming did not dare to neglect it. He answered quickly and hurriedly withdrew from the bedroom. After a while, he accompanied Li Xian and others to turn back.

"My ministers (comers, etc.) will see your majesty."

A group of people just turned the screen and saw the Empress Wu, who was sitting on the bed with tears in silence, but no one dared to look more. They grabbed the front and bowed and bowed their heads to worship.

"Free, cough..."

Gao Zong's look was extremely bad. As soon as he called, a long series of coughs broke out, so that his pale face actually aroused an unhealthy blush. The little eunuchs who were so busy that they were waiting around all surrounded them and were angry for Gao Zong.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Although the ministers were surprised by Gao Zong's sick body, they did not dare to reduce the etiquette. After thanking the kindness in unison, they retreated aside and looked at Gao Zong, who was surrounded by eunuchs of all sizes.

"Uh-huh!" As soon as he coughed and gasped, Gao Zong waved his hand impatiently and drove away all the eunuchs around him. He glanced at Li Xian with an extremely unhappy face and gasped and said, "Xian'er, what do you think it's noisy?"

Ha ha, the damn old thief, it's really the villain who complained first!

Li Xian had long expected that the Wu Hui would take out a trick of crying, making trouble and hanging. He didn't care much about it. In the face of Gao Zong's anger, Li Xian bowed extremely calmly and replied calmly: "My father, the military and the major affairs of the country can't be done by the emperor. If there is no imperial decree, no matter who, for what reason? When I discuss it, it's all about usurpation of power, and I vowed not to agree with it! If there is no rule, how can it be a square!"

"Your Highness's words are bad. If you are in a hurry, you should obey the right. How can you generalize it?"

As soon as he heard that Li Xianming pointed out that Wu Hou usurped power, Jia Chaoyin couldn't help it. He flashed out from the side and argued loudly.

"Jia Chaoyin, you dare to say this nonsense. How can you obey the power of the great social affairs? You are so bold that you want to rebel!"

It's okay that Jia Chaoyin didn't jump out. When he jumped out, he sent a target to Li Xian. If he doesn't attack him, who will attack? Li Xian would not leave any face for Jia Chaoyin. He shouted and rudely buckled a big hat.

"You..."

Jia Chaoyin didn't expect Li Xian to be so arrogant in front of Gao Zong. After being scolded like this, he was dumbfounded and stammered not knowing how to deal with it.

"Your Highness misunderstood. I misunderstood. Jia Xiang was just worried about the trouble. He had no other intention. At this critical moment, I thought it was better to negotiate the military matter first."

Although Jia Chaoyin can't afford it, as an ally, Li Zhen can't sit back and watch Jia Chaoyin being tricked by Li Xian. In case Jia Chao is in a hurry and talks nonsense again, maybe he will really be swept out of the political hall. The consequences are not fun. Therefore, although he is reluctant, Li Zhen I still had to come forward again to put a gentle hand on Jia Chaoyin's cheek.

"Where is the military newspaper?"

Although Gao Zong is not very intelligent, he is not stupid after all. At this time, he also sees something strange. Although he is dissatisfied with the Wuhou gathering of ministers to discuss military affairs without asking for instructions, it is reasonable, but it is not easy to embarrass him in public, and he does not want to see Li Xian take the opportunity to gain power, so he took advantage of Li Zhen's mouth, tight He hurriedly drank and dealt with the entanglement vaguely.

"Xuan!"

As soon as he heard that Gao Zong asked for the military newspaper, Cheng Denggao hurried forward and wanted to hand the military newspaper in his hand to Gao Zong, but unexpectedly, Gao Zong did not answer it at all. He waved his hand and shouted impatiently.

"No."

At this time, Gao Zong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Cheng Denggao did not dare to neglect him a little. He answered in a hurry. The general took out the newspaper from the envelope, spread it out, and preached in his voice, "My minister, Shan Yudu protects Xiao Siye urgently..."

"Waste! Let's talk about it. How should we deal with this matter?

After listening to the military newspaper, Gao Zong scolded angrily, looked around Zhu Zaifu, and asked in a bad tone.

"Your Majesty, I think that the Turks are in great trouble, and they can't be indulged lightly. Now on the contrary, the foundation is still shallow, and it must be flatten by the means of thunder. Otherwise, it will become a disaster of my Tang Dynasty in a long time. Although I am not talented, I would like to ask for troops to fight the thieves, and I beg Your Majesty's approval."

As soon as they saw Gao Zong's angry look, the ministers did not dare to say anything casually. For a moment, the bedroom was quiet, but the silence did not last long. Li Zhen, the king of Yue, stood up from the side and passionately asked him to go on an expedition.

"Hum..."

Obviously, Zhu Zaifu did not expect that Li Zhen would jump out and make big words. In shock, they couldn't help but make an uproar. Only Li Xian and Empress Wu were very calm. Obviously, these two had already expected Li Zhen's behavior.

"It's not good for myna to have such a heart. I'm very much forward to it. Do you have any other suggestions?"

Gao Zong did not doubt Li Zhen's loyalty, but worried that Li Zhen's ability was not enough to be competent. After all, although Li Zhen is known as the virtuous king of both literature and martial arts, she has never seen a battle after all. It is obviously not appropriate to say that he suddenly went on an expedition, but it is not easy for Gao Zong to explicitly refuse Li Zhen's self-spontificance. It can only be After a few words of comfort, he threw the problem to the assistants.

Suggestions next to

? Look at what Gao Zong said. It's really ingenious enough. It's nothing more than waiting for the ministers to come forward to oppose Li Zhen's volunteering. The people present are all the most outstanding people in the Tang Dynasty. How can they not hear the meaning? The problem is that when they can't figure out the intentions of Queen Wu and Li Xian, no one is willing to come forward. Head bird, in case there is a slight mistake in the words and inadvertently offend the two giants, the consequences are not fun. Therefore, no matter how eager Gao Zong's eyes are, the ministers all come to turn a blind eye to it, and the atmosphere in the bedroom immediately becomes strange...
