Chapter 1150: Canonizing Webster, and then counting Wu Chengsi

In the Zichen Palace, Empress Wu looked at the memorial in her hand and raised her head in surprise: "Is this to make Webster the Princess of England?"

"Yes." Su Liangsi held up his hand and said, "The King of Nanchang wants the King of England to establish a filial piety, so that everyone in the court and the public can obey his orders, and in the future they can assist His Majesty and the Queen in handling government affairs."

"He will grasp the root cause, but Erlang." Empress Wu frowned. Just after Li Xian was deposed, she changed Li Xian's son to Li Hong's heir, which made her somewhat uncomfortable.

But Li Guangshun...

Thinking of her eldest grandson, Empress Wu couldn't help but soften her expression.

That is his eldest grandson after all.

Li Guangshun, the king of Jinyang County, was granted the title of Fenzhou Biejiao.

Just like Li Xian's Crown Princess Fang, who was removed from her status as Crown Princess after Li Xian was deposed as Crown Prince, Li Guangshun also dismissed his official position as King of Jinyang County and Fenzhou Biejia.

Now he is just a commoner.

Empress Wu finally couldn't bear it anymore and slowly spoke, "Sanlang, Silang, and Taiping all want to make Erlang feel better and not be bullied by the unruly slaves in the palace."

Su Liangsi raised his eyebrows and held his hands in silence.

Indeed, if Li Xian's son inherits the incense of honoring the emperor, others will always have some concerns.

Empress Wu raised her head, sighed softly, and said: "Actually, they did this for me... As a mother, although the child made a mistake, it is enough to be beaten. If the word goes on, until Erlang's second son is born, it will be Hong'er heir."

"Here!" Su Liangsi lowered his head slightly, a hint of horror flashed in his eyes.

This sense of filial piety and brotherhood was felt not only by the King of England, but also by the Queen.

If the Queen of Heaven treats the deposed prince so mercifully, then the so-called rumors before are just rumors.

The profound calculation of the King of Nanchang.

Su Liangsi smelled something fishy, ​​but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"A father loves his son deeply, and a mother loves her son deeply. It is decreed that the concubine of the British King Wei Shi, with a prosperous family lineage, virtuous and harmonious character, is awarded the title of Princess of England." Empress Wu looked sideways, and the family behind the curtain immediately stood up. got up.

Empress Wu continued: "In the day after tomorrow, all the kings will accompany the emperor to offer sacrifices to the north and south of the world, and to the Zhaoling Mausoleum."

"Here!" Shiren handed over his hand again, then turned and left.

Su Liangsi bowed his hands deeply.

He now finally fully understood that even if the King of England did not mention it, the Emperor and Queen would still make the Queen of England's concubine Webster the Princess of England.

Now they just want to see what good reasons they can come up with.

Empress Wu then said: "The British Princess is about to give birth to a baby, please keep an eye on the Wei family."

"Here!" Su Liangsi suddenly became solemn.

Li Xian will be the crown prince and Wei will be the crown princess, so the Wei family will be the new relatives.

The Wei family is different from the Fang family. The Fang family is weak at the center. Fang Xianzhong did not play a big role in the entire process from Li Xian's rebellion to his deposedness, but the Wei family is different.

Not to mention the previous dynasties in the north and south, the Wei family had several concubines and prime ministers in this dynasty.

Concubine Wei of the late emperor Taizong, Wei Ting, the prime minister's minister of Huangmen, Wei Ting, the doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, Wei Hongji, the governor of Jizhou, Wei Baidi, the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Wei Juyuan, the doctor in the Ministry of Rites, Wei Xuanzhen, the governor of Yuzhou, Wei Wen, the governor of Xuzhou, Wei Siqian, the minister of Yousi, Yangzhou Wei Chengqing, the chief governor of the governor's office, joined the army, Wei Hongmin, the provincial doctor under his command, Wei Xuanzang, the imperial physician, and so on.

All over the government and the public.

Even among the younger generation, there are the Jinshi Wei Sili, the supervisory censor Wei Fangzhi, and the scholar Wei Couo, etc., all of whom are outstanding.

The crowds above and below were densely packed.

If you are not careful, you will have the power to influence the government and the public.

Empress Wu was already on guard.

Su Liangsi's brows couldn't help but jump. He seemed to be vaguely aware of something.

The one who was really wary of the Wei family was not only Empress Wu, but also the King of Nanchang.

Family.

The last daughter of a wealthy family to be a crown princess was the Crown Princess Zheng of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng, and the legitimate daughter of the Zheng family of Xingyang.

Even many years after his death, he still has a huge influence.

Not to mention, there is also the eldest grandson's family.

The last knife on Changsun Wuji was stabbed by Empress Wu and Li Zhi at the same time.

The lesson here is profound.

Now Webster has just come to the stage, and Empress Wu and the King of Nanchang are already working together in a tacit understanding.

Hey, then Li Xian's son was adopted as the heir to the filial emperor. It's not that simple.

……

"By the way, those rumors in the market will be cleared away starting from tomorrow." Empress Wu said, full of murderous intent.

"I accept the decree!" Su Liangsi immediately handed over his hands and then withdrew.

Walking in the Zichen Hall, Su Liangsi was still thinking about what happened before.

Many of the rumors on the market are caused by intentional people, but some are also caused by Wu Chengsi and the Beimen bachelors.

What Empress Wu said just now was to remove the hands and feet of Wu Chengsi and the North Gate bachelor.

Su Liangsi felt keenly in his heart that when Li Xian became the prince, Empress Wu hoped to be stable the most.

The North Gate Bachelor and the Prime Minister...

At this moment, a figure appeared on the opposite side.

Zhao Gong, dressed in black brocade clothes, came from outside. When he saw Su Liangsi, Zhao Gong stopped and raised his hands: "Su Sima?"

"Doctor Zhong." Su Liangsi stopped and held his hands in his hands, returning the greeting seriously.

"Su Sima is going back to Prince Ying's Mansion?" Zhao Gong seemed to have said everything in one sentence.

Su Liangsi forced a smile, and then said: "Master Zhong is going to see the Queen of Heaven, I'm going to leave first."

"Slow down!" Zhao Gong watched Su Liangsi leave gently, then turned to look at Qianyang Palace and walked in with a solemn expression.

Standing in the palace, Zhao Gong raised his hands seriously: "The Queen of Heaven!"

"How are the traces of those people from the Demon Sect going?" Empress Wu did not raise her head and continued to process the memorial.

Su Liangsi investigated the murder case of Li Xian before, and finally found the Devil's Cult, but the Devil's Cult's people had already withdrawn from the grassland.

Su Liangsi stopped investigating this matter, but he did not expect that Empress Wu was still asking Zhao Gong to investigate this case privately.

Zhao Gong held up his hands and said: "On the grassland, due to the recent turmoil in the grassland, many clues have been wiped out, making it difficult to continue the investigation. However, in Luoyang, Zuo Qianniu Guards, according to neighbors, since the end of last year, they have Occasionally, I realized that something was wrong with Jian, but because Jian was really a Qianniuwei, and his grandfather was once a governor, although his family was in decline, it was difficult to inquire deeply.

It was Qian Niuwei who made them feel something was wrong. "

"At the end of last year, during the period when the prince was in Chang'an and did not come back?" Empress Wu frowned slightly and whispered to herself: "Could that person be the spy placed by the Demon Sect next to Erlang?"

Empress Wu was all guessing that Li Xian had something to do with people from the Demon Cult, but no one had any evidence.

Even Li Xuan didn't know this.

"At the end of last year, the chiefs of the twenty-four Turkic states came to Chang'an. After that, His Majesty released Ashina Nishugui and Ashina Duo returned with the manpower of the Demon Sect. This has a lot to do with the Yinji Sect." Zhao Gong sorted out what happened at the beginning of the year.

"Well!" Empress Wu thought for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Send people to check out all the demonic forces in Luoyang, Chang'an. I want to drive them all out of Chang'an."

"Here!" Zhao Gong cupped his hands, then turned and left.

"Wait a minute." Empress Wu suddenly called out to Zhao Gong. Zhao Gong turned around and raised his hand to Empress Wu again.

"Let's check. Is the mole who disappeared from the East Palace also connected with the Demon Cult?" Empress Wu's eyes were dark.

"Here!"

……

The Royal Palace of England.

Li Xian knelt in the middle hall. Behind him, Wei Shi, who was eighty-year pregnant, was supported by a servant and knelt down too.

Ahead, Wang Fulai came to the British Palace again. He came to Wang Fulai with the imperial edict in his hand and read out the imperial edict: "In the fourth year of Wei Yifeng, at the age of Ji Mao, in the eighth month of the lunar month, in the 19th day of the lunar month, the emperor Ruo said:

Yu Xi!

The daughter of Wei Xuanzhen, the governor of Yuzhou in Jingzhao Prefecture.

Qing inherits the Chinese clan, is a female teacher with the honorific title, admires and protects her, and practices virtue.

Following the history of illustrations, one's conduct is still leisurely; within one's concubine's rituals, one's ways are pliable.

The beauty of the Yin religion belongs to the country, and it is allowed to support the country's wives and serve as a match for the vassal.

Jin'er is appointed as the concubine of the British princess. Today, Wang Fulai, the eunuch of the Shaofu Prefecture, and the people of Zhongshushe are sent to Qingyuan to hold the festival gift book.

His leadership followed his actions, he showed his virtues, and he only copied the classics. How could he be careless? "

Li Xian, and the excited-looking Wei Shi bowed at the same time: "I respectfully accept the Holy Order. Your Majesty may live forever."

Almost everyone's eyes fell on the excited-looking Webster. From this moment on, she truly became the mistress of this British palace.

In the near future, she will even become the mistress of the East Palace and even the entire empire.

Li Xuan's eyes rarely fell on Li Xian. Li Xian was lying on the ground and did not get up immediately. Others did not notice anything unusual about him.

Only Li Xuan knew that Li Xian was thinking of Zhao Qi.

It's not that this British palace had no mistress, it's just that she was dead.

……

In the back hall of Prince Ying's palace, Wei Xiang'er sat on a short couch, nodded slightly to Li Xuan, and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Uncle Wang."

"Princess, you're welcome." Li Xuan reached out and placed her hand on Wei Xiang'er's pulse, diagnosing it carefully.

At this time, Wei Xiang'er suddenly said quietly: "I heard before that Uncle Wang wants to adopt his son to the emperor's wife?"

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed, nodded, and said: "Yes, this matter is true. Although the real intention is for the prince's children, if there is a chance, if the princess's son can be adopted, it will be beneficial to both His Highness and the princess." It’s of great benefit.”

Wei Xiang'er couldn't help but be stunned.

The reason why she mentioned this matter was because someone told her before that Li Xuan had mentioned that she would use her unborn child to adopt the emperor Xiaojing to inherit the incense.

Although it was just an excuse, a dissatisfaction and anger had already arisen in Wei Xiang'er's heart.

However, when questioned face to face, Li Xuan's answer turned out to be so sincere.

"I don't understand, why should I ask Uncle Wang to clarify my doubts?" Wei Xiang'er looked a little unstable.

Li Xuan said softly: "The princess thought that no matter what, someone must inherit the incense of honoring the emperor.

Your Majesty and the Queen will never leave this behind, so someone will do it in the future. But thinking about it in detail, it is better for His Highness’s children and grandchildren to do it than for the Prime Minister’s children and grandchildren.

And it is better for the prince's children and grandchildren to do it than the prime minister's children and grandchildren. "

Wei Xiang'er's eyes suddenly lit up. Although she didn't have much contact with political affairs, she still understood the principles inherited by the emperor.

"Well, thank you Uncle Wang for considering it." Wei Xiang'er nodded seriously to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan surrendered and resigned.

……

In the night, the lights are bright.

A group of Qianniu Guards brazenly broke into a restaurant in the northeast corner of Dongshi City, and then the sound of killing began.

Soon, the killing sound stopped.

Su Liangsi, dressed in black brocade clothes, stepped in from the outside.

Inside the restaurant, corpses were already lying on the ground.

The shopkeeper who held the knife, the waiter, and the guests in the restaurant were all killed.

Su Liangsi entered the deepest room on the second floor. The corpses inside were still lying on the ground, and four or five secret guards were checking inside.

Looking at these retainers from Duke Zhou's mansion, Su Liangsi couldn't help but shake his head.

Wu Chengsi is now just the governor of Fenzhou, so it is really hard to imagine that he would be so actively involved in the fight for the heir.

"Commander!" A secret guard handed a note to Su Liangsi with a solemn expression.

Su Liangsi took one look and his expression changed drastically: "Enter the palace immediately."

The fire light flashed, and the words on the note appeared clearly in the wind.

The Duke of Wenxi County was urgently dispatched, and the Duke of Pingyang County returned to Beijing to rescue him.

Li Xian.

Above the signature, there is a seal.

Prince seal.
