Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 680 Confused Case Confused (1)

"Your Majesty's lesson, old minister, old minister..."

Li Zhen obviously didn't expect that Empress Wu would also attack her, so she was anxious immediately, and was about to resign in a hurry, but in a hurry, she couldn't find a good excuse, with an old face It was so red like blood that he was suffocated for life, and he was as embarrassed as he was.

"I think it's ok. Let the starling take charge of the overall situation in this matter. All the officials and officials will cooperate fully. The case must be concluded within one month. I will wipe out the outlaws and wipe out the nine clans. I will definitely not let you go lightly!"

It was rare that Empress Wu and Li Xian had the same views on the court situation, Gaozong was also happy to make the last round, and before Li Zhen could hold back the words completely, he made a decision immediately, and without hesitation he took the hot hand The sweet potato moved into Li Zhen's arms.

"The old minister took the decree to thank you, my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

Gaozong's words have already reached this point, and if he resigns forcefully, he will be guilty of deceiving the emperor. In desperation, Li Zhen can only bite the bullet and agree, not to mention how crooked it is in his heart. Understand.

"Well, with myna here, I can rest assured."

Gaozong's body was weak, and he didn't sleep well. By this time, he was already exhausted. Seeing that the matter had come to a conclusion, he didn't want to say any more. He left a confession and got up immediately. He yawned nonchalantly, and turned slowly towards the apse. Seeing this, Empress Wu didn't say much, and silently followed behind Gaozong.

"Disperse!"

As soon as Gaozong and his wife left, Cheng Denggao did not dare to be negligent, shouted at the top of his voice, and quickly led a group of young eunuchs to chase after Gaozong and his wife. The temporary morning court came to an end... ..."Father, the prince is really too much. It is obviously his fault, but he turned around and asked me to wait to top the tank. How can there be such a good thing in the world. If you want to investigate, then investigate his mother's bottom. Look how proud that fellow is!"

Today was originally Xunjia. After the court meeting was dispersed, all the people returned to their respective mansions, and the people from Yue Wang's mansion were no exception. They rode several carriages roaring back to the city's mansion. At the door, Li Chong, who was already full of resentment, was the first to lose his temper. He didn't even sit down, so he cursed hastily.

"Brother, don't let it go, His Royal Highness is not that kind of person."

Although Li Wen has now returned to the court as a general, after all, he has been in Hexi for many years and has a blind admiration complex for Li Xianzhi. He made a rebuttal.

"Fart, you kid was stunned by that guy, you can't understand such a simple truth, useless thing!"

Hearing that his third younger brother, who had always been his own leader, refuted him in public, Li Chong immediately became angry, and sweared violently without any image.

"enough!"

Li Zhenzheng was extremely annoyed. When she heard the two brothers pinching each other by herself, she immediately became furious and scolded in extreme annoyance. Then she didn't care about the expressions of the two brothers, buried her head, and walked quickly. At the back of the first few seats, they lifted the hem of the royal clothes and sat down sullenly. Seeing this, Li Chong and the others didn't dare to quarrel anymore, and they each sat down sullenly, with stern faces and silent.

Although Li Qian and Li Chun are also serving in the court, their official titles are low. One is below the sixth rank, and the other is below the sixth rank. Officials were allowed to attend the court meeting, and now seeing that his father and brother didn't have the right expressions, he couldn't help feeling worried, but he didn't have the courage to ask questions, so he could only cast his expectant eyes on Chen Wushuang who was sitting upright.

"My lord, what happened, why do you look like this?"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, not only Li Qian and Li Chun were very curious, but also Chen Wushuang was quite surprised, but he was undecided in his mind, and he didn't plan to ask questions in a hurry, but seeing Li Qian and his brothers so eager, they couldn't help it. It's not easy to please the two brothers, so he stretched out his hand and stroked the long beard on his chest, and asked in a deep voice.

"Ah."

When Li Zhenzheng was depressed and confused, she really didn't want to say much, so she waved at Pei Shoude, signaling him to state the details of today's court meeting.

"No, brother Wushuang, the matter is like this, today's court meeting is only for one thing, and that is the issue of who will preside over the assassination of Ming Chongyan..."

Li Zhen had an order, so Pei Shoude didn't dare to neglect it, he hurriedly bowed his body, complied with the promise, then coughed twice, cleared his throat, and described in detail what happened this morning After a while, only the facts, without adding any personal comments.

"Is there such a thing? Well..."

Although Chen Wushuang is a top-notch figure in the world, he really didn't expect such a change in the court council. He was really confused for a while, so he refused to comment easily, but frowned slightly, lost in thought among.

Even Chen Wushuang lost his words, and the rest of the people dared not speak indiscriminately, even Pei Shoude, who had never been very convinced by Chen Wushuang, was the same. Everyone in the Yue Palace was a little out of breath.

"Hey, it's really a good plan, His Royal Highness and the man in the palace are not fuel-efficient lamps!"

After all, Chen Wushuang was not an ordinary person. After contemplating for a while, he had figured out the meaning inside, and couldn't help but sighed.

"Oh? Where do you start with this, sir?"

Li Zhen couldn't figure out what the intentions of Li Xian and Empress Wu were, nor could she figure out how to judge the case that had been forced into her own hands. When she was feeling depressed, she suddenly heard Chen Wushuang's words, and she immediately went to bed. When he regained his energy, he hurriedly asked a question.

"My lord, don't worry, and let Chen explain it in detail. Well, according to what I see, even if Ming Chongyan's death was not done by the crown prince himself, it must have been arranged by him. This is a matter of certainty. But do others really want to find out about the crown prince? I'm afraid it's impossible. Let alone the prince, even the Queen of Heaven doesn't have the ability to do it herself. If she insists on doing it, unless your majesty intends to change horses, otherwise, the crown prince will be no good. No, the reason why the empress forced His Highness the Crown Prince to interrogate the case on his own is because she intends to catch His Highness the Prince's pigtails. Unfortunately, the Crown Prince is very treacherous and is not fooled. The Empress has no choice but to follow the trend Pushing this case to the prince is nothing more than hoping that the prince can have a good fight with His Royal Highness. As for why His Royal Highness is like this, I am afraid that it is revenge for the impeachment case of the five states before. Hehe, this retribution came so quickly what?"

Chen Wushuang shook his head, stretched out a slap, and while stretching his fingers, he carefully analyzed the reason, his words were full of confidence.

"Ah, this..."

Li Zhen was fully expecting that Chen Wushuang could tell the way to solve the case, but after hearing Chen Wushuang's analysis was clear and sound, he didn't say how to solve the case at all, but listed a lot of troublesome things, as if the case could not be solved , Immediately, he was a little dumbfounded, his old face twitched, and he didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Chen, it should not be like this. We have the right to adjudicate the case, so we should be able to take the initiative. No matter who is in the palace or the East Palace, if we want to succeed, it will definitely depend on our face. Is it as unbearable as the master said?"

Li Chong has a quick temper and lacks the ability to calculate wisely. He really couldn't comprehend the mystery of what Chen Wushuang said. Hearing that Chen Wushuang made the matter so difficult, he didn't take it seriously in his heart, so he said it without hesitation. Rebutted a sentence.

"King Langya only knows one thing, but not the other. It is true that we have the right to adjudicate the case, and we seem to have a certain degree of initiative. However, facing the heavy pressure from the Eastern Palace and the Queen of Heaven, what will we do? Following the will of the Empress Dowager, not to mention deeply offending the East Palace, she is doomed not to be able to implicate the prince. There is nothing else. Since the prince dared to do it, he has already made corresponding preparations, whether it is through a big banquet or not. Whether it is covered by drunkenness or the thunder of assassination, there is no sufficient evidence to prove the prince's actions. If not, how can the empress be willing to hand over the right to judge the case? Let me ask King Langya what method he will use to investigate the prince and plant it. I'm afraid it's difficult, but the empress expects me to do this. In her opinion, once I really do this, even if I can't use this case to bring down the prince in one fell swoop, I can still force me to fully invest in it. As far as his subordinates are concerned, with his instinct of turning his hands into clouds and turning his hands into rain, once I get the handle into his hands, how can it be a good thing?"

In fact, Chen Wushuang disliked Li Chong's impulsive and thoughtless temperament, but this son is the son of the king of Yue, and his righteousness lies in it. Fan.

"Sir, what you said is very true. If I don't act according to your mother's will, then I have to fake it to pass the test. If this is the case, my mother will definitely work hard. I will not please you inside and out. If I join forces with the East Palace, it will be inevitable. There is a suspicion of seeking skin from a tiger, and that fellow is also not very easy to deal with, and if he falls into his hands and throws it at Jing Er, it is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, in other words, we are now riding a tiger with difficulty!"

Li Qian's IQ is obviously higher than that of Li Chong's boss, and she wanted to embarrass him, so she chimed in to echo her. Li Chong gave him a hand, referring to him as a fool who didn't understand the truth.

"Hmph, it's absurd. When we have the sacred decree, we are afraid that the East Palace will dare to play a scoundrel, so we will investigate it thoroughly. Under the three trees, I don't believe that everyone in the East Palace is a monolith!"

Although Li Chong is not very intelligent, he is not so stupid. He sensed his second brother's evil intentions, and immediately became angry. Word.

"Extremely, extremely, elder brother is very courageous, and I don't know how many soldiers he wants to bring to investigate the East Palace, and he dares to arrest people in front of His Royal Highness, if he really dares, younger brother will lose the head and elder brother!"

Li Qian deliberately wanted to make Li Chong look ugly, seeing him lose his sense of control in anger, she was happy to take advantage of the situation and deal him another heavy blow.

"you……"

Don't look at what Li Chong said earlier, but he didn't have the guts to argue with Li Xian face to face. This kind of cowardice in his heart was exposed by Li Qian in public like this, so he couldn't hold back his face anymore. , stared, and planned to yell.

"Enough! If you quarrel so much, shut up to Gu!"

Seeing that the two sons were arguing again, Li Zhen was so annoyed that she didn't have a good face. She unceremoniously yelled loudly, stopped General Li Chong's swearing, and then ignored the second son. What kind of expression is it? Looking expectantly at the silent Chen Wushuang, he asked earnestly: "Since you can see through the strangeness, I think there must be someone who can teach me. Please give me some advice, sir. There's no reason not to."
