Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Xianzong with a deep look, smiled lightly and said:"Okay, thank you General for your concern."

There was a deep meaning in his tone.

Meng Junchu was stunned for a moment, and then he saw clearly that Li Xianzong was standing in the center of the hall.

"It turns out that the disturbance just now was actually solved by this newly appointed Imperial Preceptor!" Meng Junchu's face changed slightly, and he looked at Wu Zetian who looked calm, and he understood.

He bowed his head and saluted, tacitly understanding With a smile, Li Xianzong glanced at him, and the corners of his lips seemed to have a curve. The officials below did not believe it.

Meng Junchu quietly stepped aside and looked at Li Xianzong's back.

He had just rushed back to the capital and couldn't help but curiously asked around.

There was an old man next to him. The official whispered softly:"There are 100,000 Khitan troops under the city, and it is said that Li Xianzong went to repel them alone."

Meng Junchu was startled for a moment, and turned back to take a closer look at the scholar in white.

"this...How can it be."

How can a mere national division resist against heavy troops? This veteran must be talking nonsense!

Meng Junchu took a step forward, shook his head and said:"Zhang Bu Shang, wait a minute, are you serious?"He looked serious, speculating on the authenticity of this matter.

"How could I lie to you? It’s absolutely true!"

The old minister was also stunned, and stammered in defense:"I heard this with my own ears. The little national master was so arrogant that he was able to scare off the Khitan army with only ten words......."

Before he finished speaking, several young military attachés nearby could not help laughing.

"Hahaha, you are a fool, who knows that he got the position by luck!" The leader laughed loudly with disdain on his face.

Meng Junchu still didn't believe it, thinking to himself, how could the military power of mere civil servants be comparable to that of their cavalry? For example, this minister must be old and confused!

The ministers were in an uproar, and they were all in disbelief....

All the civil and military officials in the palace stood on both sides. Li Xianzong stood at the bottom with a calm expression.

Wu Zetian was sitting on a high dragon chair, with suppressed anger in her beautiful eyes.

"I ask again, Huo Yuanwei, do you know your guilt?" Wu Zetian's clear voice echoed in the hall.

Huo Yuanwei knelt on the ground, with big beads of sweat oozing from his forehead:"Your Majesty, I really don't know what mistake I have made. Please enlighten me.."

Even now, he still holds on to hope, hoping that he will not be exposed.

However,

Wu Zetian's eyes were full of anger. She glanced at Huo Yuanwei contemptuously and said coldly:"I recently heard that Huo Jin gathered privately in the Yulin Forbidden City. Wei, I don’t know what the purpose is?"

"How do you think this matter can be hidden from my eyes and ears?"

Huo Yuanwei was horrified, and an ugly purple color appeared on his face.

He argued in a panic:"Your Majesty is aware of this.....I solemnly swear that this is absolutely not the case...."

"I really don’t know about the gathering of imperial guards. I think someone must have squeezed out Meng and tried their best to frame me!"

Li Xianzong, who was standing next to him, looked at Huo Yuanwei's embarrassed appearance with cold eyes and laughed secretly in his heart.

He interjected:"Your Majesty, this person keeps saying that he is loyal to the country. , in fact, he is selfish and violates the law and discipline."

"What happened today seems to me that he really has evil intentions and he should be questioned and killed.!"

"You!" Meng Junchu suddenly changed his color and stared at Li Xianzong.

"Why do you have an opinion?

Li Xianzong turned his head and said calmly:"Or do you have any objections?""

Seeing that Meng Junchu was so embarrassed, all the civil and military officials looked sideways.

What Li Xianzong said was so reasonable that no one could refute it.

"Your Majesty, please calm down, I have been wronged! I have always been loyal and loyal, how could I do such a rebellious and unethical thing!" Meng Junchu cried out in grief.

An elderly minister next to him couldn't help but defend Meng Junchu:"Your Majesty, I think Huo Yuanwei is an upright person...Straight, I will never do such a treacherous conspiracy......"

"What does it have to do with you, or are you an accomplice? Li Xianzong shouted disdainfully

"you....you..."

The civil servant was so frightened that his face turned pale and he no longer dared to speak. He just stared at Li Xianzong secretly and resentfully.

There was a tense atmosphere in the palace, and all the civil and military officials held their breaths, fearing that Wu Zetian would question them at a hint.

Li Xianzong nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:"I have a way, but test whether he is lying."

He looked steadily at the spy who was kneeling at the foot of the stairs and was dying, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Wu Zetian raised his brows slightly and nodded calmly:"Tell me, please."

Li Xianzong pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his hand to the ceiling:"This time in retreat, I have learned a spell to detect authenticity, called 'Insight', which can be seen through. The deepest memories of others"

"Although this method is not yet mature, it can still be effective for ordinary people."

He opened his eyes slightly, and his divine light shot out:"I am willing to cast a spell immediately to find out the true identity of this so-called 'innocent' person for Your Majesty!"

Wu Zetian was overjoyed when he heard this, and she nodded gently:"Please do me a favor. , I really want to see if it is suitable for magic."

Li Xianzong sighed. He walked slowly to Huo Yuanwei and looked down at the dying man coldly.

Huo Yuanwei opened his eyes slightly, only to feel a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and a tall figure enveloped him.

He tried his best to look up, but saw Li Xianzong. The eyes are red, which is when the magic power is working!

"you......"Huo Yuanwei struggled suddenly, but was held down by the soldiers behind him.

Li Xianzong raised his palm and pressed it hard on his Tianling Cap.

Huo Yuanwei felt a sharp pain in his head, and his internal organs were twisted.

He gasped for air and trembled all over, but he could only endure this terrible spell attack.

"Let me see who you really have in mind!".....Dividing line......

Dear bad people, please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and some encouragement. Thank you.
