As early as when Empress Wu was still Zhaoyi, she gave birth to her first daughter, Princess Anding.

Unfortunately, not long after, the princess died unfortunately. Although the queen was not the victim, Empress Wu did not hesitate to use her daughter's death to design the queen in order to fight for the post.

On the day the princess died, she pretended nothing happened and invited the queen to a banquet!
As soon as the queen left, Li Zhi came, and pretended to laugh again. After tearing off the quilt, he found that the princess was dead. He asked the maids around, and all the maids said that the queen had just come.

After hearing this, Li Zhi was furious, and believed that it was the queen who murdered the princess.

In the first round, Empress Wu won really beautifully.

Now with Li Lingyue, Wu Zai is not as sure as before that he can win.

She used to be able to frame the Queen for killing her daughter;
Now she is afraid that the Wang family will really kill her daughter.

From the moment she saw the murderer, Empress Wu's heart sank like a valley.

"Cui Shi, is this the law of heaven, the cycle of retribution?"

Empress Wu smiled sadly, feeling that the evil she had planted had really come true to her daughter now.

Cui Daizhao was shocked when he was asked, and looked at Empress Wu in disbelief.

She has been with Empress Wu for so many years, and she is used to her strength, despicableness, wisdom, and viciousness...

No matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how dangerous the situation is, she always takes the attitude of a strong person to meet anyone's challenge.

She stepped on other people's bones step by step from a little court lady, before ascending to the throne of the queen, plotting others, and being plotted by others, the pain and hatred, honor and humiliation involved are beyond the comprehension of outsiders!

She unabashedly bared her fangs to others, showing her cold-bloodedness, cruelty, killing, and heartlessness. No matter how the world changes, she never reveals the most vulnerable side in her heart.

This is her, the most powerful woman in the Tang Empire.

However, at this moment, her fear and decadence are completely like another person, a mother, an ordinary mother who only cares about whether her child will be punished.

Cui Daizhao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.

After pondering for a moment, he seemed to change the subject and asked, "Your Majesty! Do you still remember the locust plague in Guanzhong?"

Empress Wu nodded absently.

Cui Daizhao said leisurely: "The plague of locusts in Guanzhong is rampant. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all disasters from the heavens. They submit to orders. Only the princess will defy the sky and change her fate!"

When the words "defying the sky and changing fate" were mentioned, Empress Wu frowned, and a glimmer of light flashed in her dim eyes. She straightened up involuntarily and continued to listen.

"As soon as the princess arrived in Fuzhou, she punished evildoers, beheaded profiteers, and stabilized prices; inspected water conservancy, went to the fields, and visited the people; after that, she killed corrupt officials, promoted talents, and rectified the administration of officials; scattered thousands of gold, ate locusts, and took the lead... who It is conceivable that the locust plague, which has plagued the dynasties for thousands of years, was wiped out by the princess in just ten days. The princess was already worried about the country and the people, helping the weak and helping the weak. , then how could this retribution fall on the princess!!"

Although Empress Wu had already heard about her daughter's deeds in Fuzhou, when Cui Daizhao said it again, she was still excited and proud.

When I think of myself again, it suddenly becomes clear.

yes!If she really believed in the destiny, how did she get what she has today?

If she really believed in the principles of heaven, how could she herself be promoted from a servant girl to a queen?
Didn't everything come from fighting for it with one's own hands?When will I not change my fate against the sky?

Empress Wu, who was awakened, turned back into the decisive and invincible master of the harem.

"Miss!"

Cui Daizhao bowed and asked for instructions: "The servant girl accompanied the princess on this journey, she once said a rebellious sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not!"

"Oh? Let's hear it!" Empress Wu didn't take it seriously at all. With her around, it doesn't matter if her daughter is rebellious!

Cui Daizhao calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice, "Princess said, my fate is up to me!"

I control my own life!
Empress Wu repeated these words over and over again, and the next moment, she seemed to think of something, her eyes became brighter and her expression became more excited.

She was so excited, it had nothing to do with the reincarnation of the heavens, nor the retribution of reincarnation, but opened a door of her dust under the desire.

These simple words sounded like no waves to ordinary people, but to Empress Wu's ears, it was like a flash of lightning piercing the sky, helping her find a direction, a place that made her extremely obsessed, frightened, and wanted to set foot in. direction.

Empress Wu gasped heavily, her face flushed a little!
Cui Daizhao withdrew his gaze from Empress Wu, lowered his forehead, and thought secretly in his heart:
'Strange!Why did the empress's eyes become so fanatical?Could it be... She misinterpreted my meaning? '

One night later, the imperial list posted by Li Zhi was forcefully taken back by Empress Wu, and the "treasure hunting" people returned to their normal lives with unwillingness and regret.

Except for the soldiers and horses of Beiya who continued to search for Li Lingyue's whereabouts, all other people and horses were recalled.

Li Zhi fell ill in bed because of continuous tossing. Empress Wu took over from him to preside over the morning court. At the court meeting, Empress Wu announced a few trivial matters!

The first thing: Because the emperor and the prince fell ill one after another, Empress Wu thought the year name was unlucky, and asked Si Tiantai and the Ministry of Rites to formulate a new year name in the coming year.

The second thing: During Li Zhi's reign, he destroyed Goguryeo and pacified the millennium pests. He will visit Mount Tai again in the coming year to hold the ceremony of enshrining Zen.

The third thing: In order to educate all believers and practice the way of loyalty and filial piety, the Imperial Academy was ordered to recruit a large number of literati and bachelors to carry out large-scale book revision.

The fourth thing: the Yellow River has been flooded for years, and the people are miserable. Empress Wu decided to donate [-] yuan of powder money to subsidize monks to carve stone statues of Thousand Buddhas in Longmen, the eastern capital, to pray for the disaster victims!
Among the four "minor matters", except Taishan's enshrining of Zen, which caused the ministers to discuss, the other three were passed without any objection by all the ministers.

Empress Wu, who was sitting in a high position, looked calm and calm, but her heart was already overwhelmed, so that after she left the court, her palms were still stained with sweat.

She has a secret in her heart, so it is inevitable that she will feel guilty.

In her opinion, this is the first time she has put her political ambitions on the table. Each of the four propositions she put forward is paving the way for her future power path.

How could the ministers be aware of Empress Wu's heaven-defying ambitions? By the time they realized it, it would have been a year later!

……

On the other side, the morning sun swept across the ridge, illuminating the small mountain village under the mountain stream.

Golden beams of light pass through the green willows by the river, and the mottled light is reflected on the beams of the wooden house.

As the breeze blew, a wind chime under the eaves swayed from side to side, making a crisp melody.

Lush flowers and plants, gurgling brooks, curling smoke from the kitchen, and leaping fish... What a paradise with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

Not long after, the quiet and peaceful atmosphere was broken with the quarrel between a man and a woman in the wooden house.

"Take it off for me immediately!" The man's tone was cold.

"Why! No!" The woman said arrogantly.

"If you don't take off, I will kill you!" The man began to threaten.

"Try killing one, bah, white-eyed wolf!" The woman didn't hesitate at all!
Through the half-covered window, a scene of "Journey to the West" is being staged inside!

It's just that the Zixia Fairy holding the sword was replaced by Shi Qingfeng, and the person being threatened was replaced by Li Lingyue.

Li Lingyue was extremely depressed, she just changed a skirt in the closet, but Shi Qingfeng provoked Shi Qingfeng to take down the wooden sword on the wall and threatened herself to take it off.

It can be seen that the underskirt worn by this woman is very important to Shi Qingfeng. If Li Lingyue's clothes were not dry, she would not bother to wear other people's clothes.

With Li Lingyue's temperament, as long as Fan Shi Qingfeng is easy to talk, it won't be unpleasant.On the contrary, the stronger the opponent is, the more she ignores it.

In the stalemate, she grabbed the hem of the skirt with both hands, and threatened: "This must not be your favorite clothes, if you dare to touch me, this princess will tear it up!"

"court death!"

Shi Qingfeng gave Li Lingyue a sword without thinking about it.

With a 'chi' sound, the tip of the sword plunged into Li Lingyue's shoulder...

The sudden scene made Li Lingyue look stupid. She had been in the workplace for so many years, and she had never seen any kind of man. It was the first time she met such a strange man as Shi Qingfeng.

"You're a big idiot!"

Li Lingyue squeezed out a national curse from between her teeth, and as soon as her stubborn temper came up, regardless of the consequences, she exerted strength with both hands, and tore a hole in the skirt in front of Shi Qingfeng.
