After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 5 Chaos after the abolition
Obviously it was the emperor Li Zhi who held the "Six Shots Ceremony" for the little princess without authorization, which violated the etiquette, but the ministers who made the admonishment only used martial arts and then performed the knife.

From "non-observance of etiquette" to "controlling chaos in the harem", it directly rose to the point of "bewitching the king" and "cholera court plan"!

With more and more people admonishing, the right minister Xu Jingzong, represented by Empress Wu's forces, led the courtiers of the "pro-martial arts faction" to defend the queen at the court meeting the next day, and the two sides quarreled in the court hall.

The culprit, Li Zhi, became an outsider instead. He sat on the dragon chair and pressed his temples with both hands to relieve his migraine.

When the ministers were almost arguing, he said lightly:

"I just said it all, this is my family matter, there is no need to bring it up in the court!"

"Your Majesty, I don't agree with you. What the empress has done is really treasonous. She gave the crown of the emperor's big shot in the old dynasty to the heirs of this dynasty, let alone a princess. Such a joke. What the empress did is against the Tang Dynasty. Etiquette is against motherly manners, against the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, please issue a decree to punish the crime!" Zuo Chancellor Hao Chujun came out to remonstrate.

"Your Majesty, please issue a decree to punish the crime!" Half of the officials shouted in unison.

"But all of this is my idea, how can the queen be blamed?" Li Zhi spread his hands and said in embarrassment.

"Your Majesty!" Wang Derang, Minister of Rites, stepped out and said:
"If a woman is not virtuous, there is nothing she can do to her husband. If a husband does not control his wife, his prestige will be ruined; if a woman does not serve her husband, his righteousness will be degraded. I only know that it is necessary to control wives and wives, and it is necessary to maintain dignity! Your majesty is disrespectful. The fault is not with the ruler, it is actually the fault of the servants who did not observe and do nothing, which is a serious crime!"

The meaning of the Minister of Rites is that the husband is not wrong, but the wife is the one who is wrong. If the wife is not disciplined, the wife will be turned upside down. No matter how wrong the emperor is, it is also caused by the inaction of the queen.

Good guy, with novel logic, and helped Li Zhi win the pot.

Seeing that Li Zhi was a little moved, Xu Jingzong, the right minister on Empress Wu's side, hurriedly came out, ready to argue hard.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhi didn't give him a chance, and asked first:
"Then, in the opinion of all my lovers, how should I punish you?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Derang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, had an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, but quickly retreated back into the queue and stopped answering Li Zhi's words.

This old fox is very clear in his heart. He is only responsible for finding fault with the queen, but he has never thought of being the emperor's sword.

I still remember that a year ago, in this Xuanzheng Hall, all civil and military officials wanted to help Li Zhi abolish Empress Wu, everyone shouted loudly, but in the end only the honest Prime Minister Shangguan Yi drafted the edict to abolish Empress overnight.

As a result, Empress Wu made a big fuss in the Xuanzheng Palace, scolding all civil and military officials so much that she didn't dare to put a fart on it. Li Zhi, who originally wanted to abolish the empress, was instantly persuaded, pointing at Shangguanyi and throwing the blame: "He made me do it! "

Shangguanyi was reduced to a villain, and her whole family was killed. The infant granddaughter Shangguan Wan'er and her mother Zheng were sent to the Ye court palace and reduced to official slaves. What a tragedy.

With this lesson learned from the past, no one dares to be the first bird again.

The Xuande Hall, which was still lively just a second ago, immediately became silent when Li Zhi asked him this question. Only the courtiers sent by Empress Wu to Xu Jingzong's side looked smug, and stroked their beards to watch the jokes.

Seeing that the minister of the Ministry of Rites has become a coward, Li Zhi is inevitably a little bit disappointed.

At this time, the left minister Hao Chujun coughed, and at the end of the group of officials stood a fifth-rank official, holding a wat board, came out and knelt on the ground and said loudly:
"Admonish doctor Xue Yong, please Your Majesty... abolish the Empress!!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the important officials of the court, including Li Zhi, couldn't help but shudder!
…………

Late at night, Hanliang Palace!

Li Lingyue woke up in the middle of the night, nestled in the arms of the wet nurse, and ate supper in big mouthfuls.

The candles in Empress Wu's room next door were still on, and the conversation between the two women was clearly heard in her ears.

Cui Daizhao supported Wu Zetian to sit up, picked up a pillow and put it on her back, and pressed the quilt intimately, then took three steps back, waiting for Wu Zetian's lecture.

Wu Zetian held a secret letter in his hand, read it back and forth twice, then put it aside, and asked Cui Daizhao:

"What does Prime Minister on the right mean?"

Cui Daizhao bowed and said: "The right minister's meaning is the same as the last time he dealt with Shangguanyi. Before drawing up the imperial edict to abolish the empress, support the empress and fight back against him!"

Wu Zetian nodded first, then shook his head.

"It's easy to make His Majesty change his mind, and it's not difficult to kill a few courtiers. It seems that we have won, but the root of the problem has not been resolved. If things go on like this, as long as they catch a chance, they will be lost. I... can't afford to lose." !"

"My lady means..."

Wu Zetian pondered for a while, and said: "We must find a solution once and for all, so that they can no longer have the thought of abolishing the empress!"

After a pause, Wu Zetian asked again: "What's the attitude of British Duke Li Ji?"

When Cui Daizhao heard that Wu Zetian mentioned Li Ji, his heart trembled.

Li Ji, the current minister of the Ministry of War, is the veteran of the three dynasties, and the only living minister of Gu Ming beside Li Zhi. His original name was Xu Shiji.

In the turmoil of "abolishing the king and establishing the military", Gu Ming's eldest son Wuji and Chu Suiliang all supported the queen, but Li Ji pretended to be sick and did not express his opinion.

Wu Zetian felt that he could be wooed, so he asked Li Zhiye to visit Li's mansion and asked Li Ji: "I plan to make Wu Zhaoyi the queen, but the ministers object, what do you think should be done?"

Li Ji replied: "This is Your Majesty's family business, why bother asking outsiders!"

Even though it was just a turmoil after the abolition, there were many people involved, even the eldest grandson Wuji (Li Zhi's uncle) and Chu Suiliang, the Minister of Gu Ming, died tragically on the way to exile.

As soon as Cui Daizhao heard Wu Zetian mention Li Ji, he knew that a big disturbance would be brewing.

So he replied truthfully: "Go back to your mother, the British Duke has not made any statement. After the court is over, he will go back to the mansion alone, and he will not see any guests!"

Wu Zetian heard the words, and said to herself: "This old fox is really getting smarter and smarter. If you want to stay out of it, I'm not as good as you want!"

She thought about it, and said to Cui Daizhao: "Tomorrow morning, go to the warehouse to get a pair of jade bracelets, smash one of them, and send it to Li's house in two boxes. The Li family can only accept one gift in return!"

"What if the Li residence doesn't accept anything?" Cui Daizhao asked.

Wu Zetian smiled coldly, and said viciously: "Then smash the other jade bracelet in front of the people of Li's family!"

Cui Daizhao immediately understood that Wu Zetian was forcing Li Ji to choose a side, and by sending jade bracelets to tell the other party, either the jade is broken or the tiles are complete. For her Wu Zetian, there is no third way to go!
Cui Daizhao bowed to accept the order, and continued to ask: "The right minister, how should the servant respond?"

Wu Zetian smiled and said: "Tell the right minister to retreat to advance, and wait and see what happens!"

Speaking of this, the little princess's cry sounded inappropriately.

The baby Li Lingyue was really uncomfortable. When she woke up, she had already wet the bed. In order to listen to Wu Zetian's conversation, she tried not to cry. After the nurse finished feeding her milk, the maid did not check her diaper. She was really uncomfortable. , had to cry out loud.

Wu Zetian reprimanded the maid again, and after Li Lingyue finished changing the diaper, Wu Zetian didn't feel like going to sleep, so she simply took over the child and the two of them slept together.

Li Lingyue's eyes were wide open, and her mouth seemed to be spitting bubbles, but in fact she kept complaining:

"As expected of a generation of empresses, this scheming is so smooth. If she is allowed to travel to the US Empire, let alone the Secretary of State, the US Emperor's female president will be at her fingertips!"

After making complaints, she looked at Empress Wu with both admiration and fear. She had no choice, her old mother was a black-bellied queen, and she was no match for her.

No matter what people say, she is the ceiling in the palace fight, the great master in the scheming, as long as she is alive, she has to be a princess with her tail between her legs.

There is a saying: You are in charge of fighting for power, and I am in charge of acting cute.

Thinking about it, seeing Wu Zetian staring at her with her head down, Li Lingyue quickly raised the corners of her mouth, revealing an innocent smile.

Wu Zetian scratched her nose with his fingers, pretending to complain:

"You little guy, you can still laugh, if it weren't for you, mother wouldn't be demoted again, your cruel Aye... Sigh!"

Oh my giao!Can this also be dumped?You two are really a match made in heaven.

Li Lingyue complained in her heart, and shrank her head into Empress Wu's arms, pretending to be afraid.

Wu Zetian's heart softened, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and said softly:
"Hey, you are my mother, I will protect you for the rest of my life!"

OMG!Eldest sister, you are very useful in protecting me. Didn’t my husband starve to death in prison, which caused me to lose my family and become a widow at a young age?

Hey, by the way, my husband-in-law Xue Shao should be four years old now.

When I can walk, I have to meet him and see what kind of god he is, who can fascinate the first princess of the Tang Dynasty.

If you don't see it right, you should get rid of the relationship as soon as possible. If he dares to entangle, you can kill him directly, so as not to be a widow in the future, and be used as a marriage tool by Empress Wu to mess with mandarin ducks.

Thinking about it, his eyelids sank, and he fell asleep again.

In the following time, Li Lingyue ate, drank and slept every day, and couldn't remember the date at all.

Sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, I still hear the conversation between Wu Zetian and Cui Daizhao.

She probably understood that under the instigation of the ministers, Li Zhi became more and more determined to abolish the queen, because he had failed the previous time, this time, he never made up his mind, but was a member of the "Inverting the Martial Arts" Helping the courtiers began to gradually surface.

Under Wu Zetian's behest, the Prime Minister on the right side, all the flags and flags died down. Invisibly, the arrogance of the "Dangwu faction" became more and more arrogant, especially with the joining of some Li's royal family. showdown.

Faced with the pressure from the ministers, Wu Zetian not only did not fight back, but also deliberately asked several ministers under him to resign voluntarily.

It's just that they don't know that the reason why Wu Zetian deliberately showed weakness is that he used the method of retreating to advance, waiting for all those people hiding behind the scenes to jump out, and then catch them all.

One of the important reasons why Wu Zetian dared to be so confident was that she had the secret support of the Sixth Army of the Beiya, and she had the support of Li Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who was a military boss, so she dared to play like this.

Of course, if Li Ji turns against the water, it is also possible. How about Wu Zetian dancing on the tip of a knife every time he takes a step?
She counterattacked step by step from a court lady to an empress, do you really think that she relied on favor and luck?

Of course not, apart from being erudite and talented, knowing people well, being cruel and ruthless, there is another point: dare to risk your life to gain a future.

Among other things, this kind of courage and courage is really beyond the reach of ordinary women. It proves from the side that it is at a critical moment that someone dares to risk their lives to become the emperor.

　ps: Don't look at Li Zhi's ears, he has always planned to abolish the queen. At the beginning, he "abolished the king and established the martial arts" in order to bring down the Guanlong family. Later, he wanted to abolish the martial arts. It is probably due to the handover of power and the true nature of men. Guess Yes, don't scold, let's talk if you have something to say.

　　By the way, Princess Taiping's best friend, Shangguan Wan'er, is about to debut, please wait for the sisters who love CP.
