Chapter 11 The Death of Minyue
After a while, Wu Zetian backed out of Madam Rongguo's room with a gloomy face, picked up Li Lingyue without saying hello, and went straight out.

He Lan Minzhi stepped forward politely and said, "Nephew sees aunt off!"

"No need, go get busy!" Wu Zetian said in a chatty manner, and then left without looking back.

He Lan Minzhi stood where he was, his eyes fixed on Empress Wu's back, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Brother!" He Lan Minyue called out and walked to his side. The two brothers and sisters looked at the direction where Empress Wu disappeared together. He Lan Minyue clenched her fists tightly and said bitterly:
"My mother was killed by her, I must avenge my mother!"

"To shut up!"

When He Lanmin scolded, she raised her hand to slap her face, but when she saw her sister crying again, her heart ached, and her raised hand turned into wiping her tears.

"Listen to me clearly, I want you to live well!"

Without waiting for He Lan Minyue to refuse, she turned around and returned to the mourning hall, and continued to kneel in front of Wushun's coffin to observe filial piety.

Everything seemed so peaceful, Wu Shun's death was soon forgotten.

Li Zhi was still the same Li Zhi, he had only been sad for one day, and then he forgot about the person next to his pillow, and put all his energy on cultivating the prince and seeking pleasure.

Empress Wu is still that Empress Wu, except for taking care of her daughter Li Lingyue, she spends all her time in court.

As Li Zhi's illness worsened, Wu Zetian reviewed the memorials on her behalf. She was able to make decisions on all affairs of the court, and most of the faction forces returned to the harem. power.

The couple are naturally complementary, and during the couple's reign, they managed the country in an orderly manner.

At the beginning of October, Li Zhi Taishan enshrined Zen. Empress Wu took Li Lingyue from Chang'an to Luoyang, the eastern capital.

The accompanying car ride stretched for hundreds of miles, not only the court officials, but also the leaders and envoys of Turkic, Khotan, Persia, Tianzhu, Wa, Silla, Baekje, Goguryeo and other countries.

On Mount Tai, Li Zhi took Wu Zetian to the "Dengfeng Altar", and Li Zhi held the five-color soil to worship the heaven.

According to the etiquette system, when enshrining Zen, the emperor Li Zhichu should offer it, and the ministers and ministers should offer it to Ya.

However, Wu Zetian believed that conferring Zen as a ritual of offering sacrifices to the land should be enjoyed by the emperor and empress to demonstrate the virtues of the land, and she wanted to act as the sub-offer herself.

This excuse was far-fetched, but reasonable, so Li Zhi agreed.

After Feng Chan, Mrs. Rong Guo who accompanied her moved to live in Luoyang, and the two brothers and sisters of He Lanmin stayed in Chang'an to serve Wu Shun as a filial piety for three years.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed, and Li Lingyue was finally out of her infancy and could barely walk.

During this period, an event that seemed insignificant to outsiders but quite serious to Li Lingyue happened in the palace:
He Lan Minyue died.

After Wu Shun's death, He Lan Minzhi built a hut in front of the grave to keep filial piety for his mother. He felt sorry for his sister, so he let He Lan Minyue stay alone in the mansion.

Unexpectedly, He Lan Minyue frequently entered and left the palace without telling her brother.

At first, she only came to Hanliang Hall to greet Wu Zetian and get close to Li Lingyue by the way.

She would hold Li Lingyue to play in the Hanliang Hall every time. From outsiders' point of view, her cousin loved her sister very much, and Empress Wu didn't think much about it.

But Li Lingyue gradually realized that this cousin looked at her very strangely, especially when no one was paying attention, there was a deep chill in those beautiful eyes.

This discovery terrified her.

Then one day, Wu Zetian accompanied Li Zhi to hunt in the countryside. When Li Lingyue was changing her diaper, He Lan Minyue took her into the tent.

When the two were alone, Li Lingyue, who was snuggling in her arms, suddenly felt her neck tighten. He Lan Minyue's pretty face became grim, and her hands began to exert force.

The thinking of a mature woman made Li Lingyue quickly realize that her cousin was going to strangle her to death!

At the critical moment, she didn't have time to think about it, and immediately burst into tears.

The crying alarmed the female officers outside, but He Lan Minyue failed to succeed.

Li Lingyue, who survived the catastrophe, never let He Lan Minyue hug her again. Whenever he hugged her, she would cry.

There's no way, she's still young and doesn't have the ability to protect herself, I'm afraid that if this cousin gets mad and throws her to death recklessly, then she will be too wronged to die.

This abnormal behavior of his own quickly aroused the vigilance of Empress Wu, who found a reason and sent He Lan Minyue away.

He Lan Minyue couldn't enter the Hanliang Hall, so soon, he made his mind on Li Zhi.

She chose the same path as her mother, but the purpose of mother and daughter is different, the former is for children, while the latter is for revenge!

In this way, Wu Zetian's Ni Lin was directly touched, how could she allow the same scandal to happen a second time.

Not long after, Wu Zetian took the opportunity of the two brothers of the Wu family to pay tribute to special snacks, and ordered someone to poison the food, and then donated it to He Lan Minyue.

He Lan Minyue thought it was a gift from Li Zhi, not long after eating it, bleeding from the seven orifices and died in the palace.

Wu Zetian borrowed a knife to kill people, not only poisoning his niece, but also killing two brothers who were already hated.

It's just that she didn't know that in this way, He Lan Minzhi was completely angered, so that the prince and princess suffered cruel revenge from He Lan Minzhi one after another.

On the day of He Lan Minyue's death, Li Lingyue will never forget the Namu scene when He Lan Minzhi entered the palace to collect his sister's body.

He was still dressed in plain clothes, and his frail figure was very lonely. Every step he took, he looked like a walking dead, like a wandering soul that had lost its soul.

Entering the hall, ignoring everyone present, walked straight to the side of the dead sister, squatted down, hugged the cold body in his arms, gently stroked the hair on her face with fingers, and tears fell silently.

Sitting high on the dragon chair, Li Zhi wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it, so he could only choke out a sentence:
"I saw that she was fine in the morning, but I didn't expect that she would die after retreating, alas!"

When he said this, Wu Zetian next to him continued:

"The Dali Temple has already found out that it was the two brothers Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun who conspired to poison the tribute food in order to murder me and His Majesty. It was only because Ah Yue ate it by mistake that they were poisoned and died. The two have been imprisoned , it will be Ling Chi soon, Ah Yue's spirit in the sky can also rest in peace!"

"Hahahaha!"

Just as Wu Zetian finished speaking, He Lanmin burst out laughing, as if watching the funniest comedy, laughing until tears flowed.

Wu Zetian's complexion changed, and Li Lingyue's heart was hanging in her arms. She knew that as long as He Lanminzhi dared to question her in public, she would not be able to get out of this palace.

After laughing, He Lanminzhi hugged his younger sister and respectfully said to Wu Zetian uncharacteristically: "Thank you, my aunt, for killing the murderer for my younger sister, and my nephew thank you here!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up and said to He Lan Minyue in his arms: "Sister, let's go home with brother!"
