Mei Niang, I'm a fake eunuch, you still let me sleep

Chapter 213

"Next, I will read the will!"

Zhao Wujiang's resounding voice resounded throughout the hall, and the officials were silent, all of them were stunned by his appearance.

Impossible, it must be impossible. Xu Jingzong held Gou Youfang's bloody head in his hands, and the familiar dark and dark moon always stimulated his mind.

His face was pale, his hands were trembling, and he finally threw the head out, yelling mournfully:

"Come on, come on! Zhao Wujiang, you openly despise the court, and you still don't want to drag him down, huh? Drag him down!"

No one answered.

Xu Jingzong took a few steps back trembling, pointing at Zhao Wujiang with his old hand, trembling like chaff.

He looked around at the ministers in the crowd who were discussing matters in his mansion, none of them dared to speak out, but his eyes signaled him not to be impulsive, Zhao Wujiang's murderous aura is at its peak now.

Xu Jingzong panted heavily, he looked at the high-ranking Empress Wu again, and his heart sank, he would not still let Zhao Wujiang read out the so-called will.

He knew very well in his heart that no matter what the result of the will was, it would not be a good thing for him.

If the result of the edict is that Prince Li Zhong ascended the throne, then his idea of ​​relying on Empress Wu would come to naught, which would be a heavy blow to his future power.

And if it is announced that Empress Wu is on the throne, it is also not good news, because it means that Zhao Wujiang has become the first person who has become the first minister of the dragon to really help Empress Wu to the throne.

Once it is the second result, Zhao Wujiang's power, which was quickly disintegrated because of the emperor's death, will re-condense on Empress Wu, which is the last thing Xu Jingzong wants to see.

So no matter what, he will not still let Zhao Wujiang speak.

"Zhao Wujiang! Why did you read this edict?" Xu Jingzong's mask twisted, his eyes kept pointing to Hou Shanye and others from Dali Temple.

"The emperor has just passed away, do you want to bring the prince to threaten the officials?" He looked at the pale prince Li Zhong, and said:
"The will is the most important thing. Even if it is drafted, it should not be read by you! Who knows if you have tampered with the will?"

"That's right, just now you despised the court, didn't put us in your eyes, and even uttered wild words about a traitor, I think you, Zhao Wujiang, are a traitor!
Otherwise, why bring someone up to court?Where do you think this is?ah? "

Dali Temple Minister Hou Shanye came off, he coughed dryly, trying to attract the attention of the officials:

"What's more, the content of the will is related to the foundation of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty. How can we listen to your one-sided words?"

He was vaguely reminding the ministers that regardless of whether the edict is true or not, the edict itself has contributed too much. No matter who ascends the throne, as long as Zhao Wujiang reads the edict, it is a great achievement, and this credit should not be enjoyed by Zhao Wujiang alone.

The eyes of the ministers brightened slightly, and they heard the overtones. The Prime Minister Lai Ji wanted to stand up, but he was grabbed by Li Ji who was beside him.

"Brother Lai Ji, speak carefully, speak less, and keep silent." Li Ji reminded him.

Lai Ji was puzzled, and asked softly: "Brother Shiji, why? This Zhao Wujiang clearly wants to monopolize him."

"Think about it carefully, if the emperor dies and there is really a will, who will read it out?" Li Ji smiled and shook his head:
"It can only be Wen Yong! If it's not Wen Yong, then the remaining person can only be Zhao Wujiang!
Mr. Zhao always takes advantage of the situation. He dared to stand up because of the power of the emperor. He is the emperor's favored minister and has won the trust of the emperor. It is natural that he will be more convincing when he comes to read the speech!
When it comes to official positions, he is the secretary and secretary of the province, and the records of the emperor's daily life are all his subordinates, and the edicts he read are more authentic!
Of course, the old man knows that these things cannot stop you, brother Lai Ji, but have you ever thought about what the content of the will is? "

"Needless to say, it is naturally Li Wu. Huh?" Lai Ji suddenly turned his head, looked at Li Ji, and said hoarsely, "You mean the prince? How is that possible?"

Li Ji shook his head with a smile, covered his sleeves with both hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Zhao Wujiang, who was as stable as Mount Tai amidst more and more questions from his courtiers, and said slowly:
"If it's Empress Wu, it's not a problem for you to compete with them for the reading of the will, but what if it's not?
If not, then this will will offend the Empress Dowager Wu!

She is not the empress who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, she is the empress who is in power in the same dynasty as the emperor! "

Laiji exclaimed:

"How could Zhao Wujiang do such a stupid thing? With his ingenuity, he should be able to understand the situation. This edict can only establish a queen, but not a prince. How can a prince sit securely when he becomes the throne?
It is impossible for him to announce the establishment of the crown prince."

Li Ji shook his head with a slight smile, narrowed his eyes, and said slowly, "But you forgot who he is."

"Isn't he Zhao?" Lai Ji suddenly realized something, and murmured in a low voice:

"But he is Zhao Wujiang. He knows what others won't do, and he dares what others dare not do.
Does he really dare to offend Empress Wu? "

"It's hard to say, look, who is standing respectfully behind him? It's the current prince, tell me, why is the prince standing respectfully behind him?" Li Ji patted Laiji on the shoulder.

The court became more and more noisy, and more and more courtiers stood up to question Zhao Wujiang, especially when they knew that Zhao Wujiang only had verbal instructions, more people were filled with righteous indignation and began to criticize Zhao Wujiang verbally and in writing.

Only the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and others wanted to argue for Zhao Wujiang, but they couldn't resist the saliva of many courtiers.

"My lords, the villain Wang Dong, who was living at the time"

At this moment, a discordant voice came from outside the hall.

A thin, elegant man in the uniform of a secretary and supervisor stepped into the hall quickly.

"What kind of place is this? All the high officials present here, you, a little living man, are worthy of stepping into the palace?" Xu Jingzong roared. Now that more and more courtiers are standing on the same side with him, he is confident. More and more full.

"I called you." Zhao Wujiang said slowly, with a calm expression:

"When the emperor passed away, apart from Mr. Wen, there was only one living man by his side, and this person was Wang Dong.

read! "

Xu Jingzong's old eyes opened angrily, and he shouted in horror: "Stop him!"

Hou Shanye was so close that he was about to step forward and imprison the living man.

"Humph!"

Zhao Wujiang hummed softly, and the mighty aura swept the entire court like a gust of wind, everyone was horrified, only to realize that they all forgot that Zhao Wujiang was not a good stubble, but a murderer.

Zhao Wujiang stared at everyone, and said in a deep voice:
"What the emperor did and said, the officials in the secretary's office have recorded it, and this edict is also in it, don't you want evidence?

Now here is the proof!

Wang Dong, read it. "

Living man Wang Dong bowed, took out a manual, spread it out and said slowly:
"On the fifth day of the second month of the Xianqing year, Li Zhi, the son of the emperor, died of a serious illness. He left an oral edict to make the crown prince Li Zhong the emperor, and Zhao Wujiang took care of his life to assist the government."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall was in an uproar and exclaimed.
