Chapter 802 Inevitable(1/2)
On this day, Li Zhi sat in the study to review memorials as usual, but there was nothing to criticize. Changsun Wuji and the others had already managed it in an orderly manner. Li Zhi didn't like it because for a long time, the emperor had only one power, that is, the right to agree. In fact, as he grew up and wanted power, he was more anxious than Li Yifu and others, because this was directly related to his personal interests, while Li Yifu and the others were only indirect.
After a while, Zhang Desheng suddenly left and picked it up, bent down slightly and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the Censor, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of the Secretariat, and the Royal Special Envoy to seek a visit outside."
Li Zhi's heart skipped a beat, frowned, hesitated for a while before putting down his pen and saying, "Let them come in."
He also vaguely guessed what it was for when the four great vajras were gathered and he took the initiative to ask for a meeting.
After a while, Cui Yixuan, Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu and Han Yi walked in.
"Long live, long live, long live, long live, long live."
"No gift!"
Li Zhi asked with a plain face: "I wonder what the four beloved ministers have to ask for a meeting?"
Xu Jingzong took the lead in speaking: "Your Majesty, most people in the people now support Wu Zhaoyi as the queen. I beg Your Majesty to follow the public's wishes, abolish the Queen of Wang, and make Wu Zhaoyi as the queen."
This is really a straightforward move!
This was actually discussed yesterday. Han Yi was drunk when he heard it. The people were tired enough when they looked at the rice in the bowl every day. They didn’t have the mood to care about who would sleep with the emperor! This is too false.
But he did not object, it didn't matter. The people in the room knew what was going on, it was just an excuse.
Li Zhi was not stupid either. Of course, he knew it was fake, so he pretended to ask: "Be serious about this?"
Han Yi stood up and said, "Report to Your Majesty, Xu Shangshu's words are indeed true. Wu Zhaoyi complies with the people's sentiments, contributes money and efforts, builds a college, and hosts the sons of the people for free to study. It can be said that he is a mother in the world and is deeply loved by the people."
"So that's it!" Li Zhi nodded and thought to himself that Zhaoyi Academy is really a good thing.
Li Yifu said again: "Your Majesty, Wu Zhaoyi gave birth to a dragon son one after another, but the Queen Wang had never given birth to it. It can be seen that Wu Zhaoyi is the destiny of heaven. Your Majesty should obey the will of heaven and make Wu Zhaoyi the queen."
Li Zhi nodded.
Cui Yixuan said again: "Your Majesty, this matter has caused a lot of controversy. The ministers in the court have no psychological governance. If they continue for a long time, they will ruin the court's principles and damage your majesty's reputation. I beg your majesty to put the country first."
This is a three-pronged approach, and you will talk about it after a sudden dizziness.
The people's will, the will of heaven, and the country are the three most important points. As an emperor, you cannot ignore these three points.
Fortunately, Li Zhixin was prepared and would not faint by them. But he also felt that it was time to show off. It was already here, and it would be meaningless to drag it down like this. It would be difficult to go further. He was struggling for a while and said, "The four beloved ministers are reasonable, and this matter should not be delayed. In this way, the four beloved ministers will raise it in the morning court tomorrow."
When Xu Jingzong heard this, he said that this was not good. If you don’t open your mouth, you will ask us to report it. If you see that the situation is wrong and sell us, then we won’t be over. He hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, there are so many people in the court. If you take this matter to the court from the beginning and talk about it, it will only become more complicated.”
Li Zhi was still afraid when facing Changsun Wuji. After all, from a young master to an old man, he had a shadow in his heart. He wanted to instigate Xu Jingzong and the others to submit a report. Changsun Wuji and the others would definitely object. Anyway, you can fight, and he can judge the situation and not fight head-on with Changsun Wuji. If there is a chance, he will make the final decision.
But how is this possible? What level is Changsun Wuji, what level is Xu Jingzong and others? You, the boss, don’t even speak up. As a younger brother, I have no confidence to compete with others.
Li Yifu said: "It is all my gifts to you today by Your Majesty. It is our duty to share your worries. However, this is not about water conservancy, nor about planting and harvesting in spring, but about the matter of the harem. If Your Majesty does not speak this way and you have to speak first, it can be said that it is a crime of exceeding the rules."
Li Zhi thought about it, it seemed that there was no reason.
You, you don’t even speak, and let others speak out, then it’s not going to be a good idea to destroy the emperor’s family. Who dares to bear this charge?
This cannot be done like this!
Li Zhi said: "Then what do you think should be done?"
Cui Yixuan said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the emperor has discussed with the central minister first and then announced in the court. Why not summon the Grand Marshal and others to discuss this matter?"
If we talk about the true central minister, these four major vajras are not ranked, they are definitely considered to be Changsun Wuji, Li Ji, Chu Suiliang, and Yu Zhining. But if we do this, it will be one-on-four Li Zhi. Li Zhi is also very depressed. I won’t let you charge in the battle, and you can’t let me fight alone!
Han Yi also knew that Li Zhi was also a little worried, so he said, "Your Majesty, you should stop and suffer the chaos. Whether it is following the rules or following the tradition, Your Majesty should discuss with the Grand Marshal and the others first." There is still a half sentence, if you don't speak, we have nowhere to use our strength!
Li Zhiguang thought about the scene where he faced the four people alone, and his palms began to sweat. When he saw the four kings staring at him, he said, "You guys take your leave first, let me think about it."
disappointment!
Very disappointed!
But there was no way, Han Yi, Xu Jingzong and others had to leave.
As soon as he left the room, Xu Jingzong said, "This is not possible. If Your Majesty is so hesitant, the situation will only be more unfavorable to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty does not agree, we will come again tomorrow."
This suggestion was quickly supported by the rest of the people.
After Xu Jingzong and others left, Li Zhi had no intention of reviewing the memorials and returned to the harem in dismay.
Wu Meiniang was coaxing the baby to sleep. When she saw Li Zhi walking in with a calm face, she quickly stepped forward and said with concern: "Your Majesty, what are you?"
Li Zhi looked up at Wu Meiniang, after a while, he sighed and said, "Li Yi Mansion, Han Yi and the others have been here in front."
When Wu Meiniang heard this, she guessed in her heart, nervous and happy, so she asked, "Why did they come?"
"They suggest that I make you the queen as soon as possible."
Li Zhi said this and suddenly glanced at Wu Meiniang and said, "Mei Niang, what do you think?"
Wu Meiniang hesitated for a moment, and Yingying politely said, "Your Majesty is the noble of the Nine Five, just be the master of yours. I will follow yourselves."
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment. This was not very similar to Wu Meiniang's style. For this, Wu Meiniang had been using it for several rounds of crying, making a fuss and hanging back and forth. Why did he change his personality today? But when he thought about it, he felt very ashamed. As the Lord of the Nine Five, I didn't even dare to speak, and I thought that others would open this mouth. This emperor was too cowardly.
The more you think about it, the more angry you become. You can’t even make decisions about this matter. How can you talk about national affairs?
When Li Zhi's eyes gradually became firmer when he thought of the imperial power.
In fact, this battle was destined to be inevitable from the beginning. As the saying goes, there is no day, and there is no two kings in the people.
On Taibai Mountain!
With a clang!
Dugu Wuyue pulled the door in the room and said inexplicably: "Brother Shigua, Brother Zheng, why did you lock me up here? Didn't you say that you have found a way to cure Hong Ling?"
Zheng Shanxing said: "Wuyue, sorry! We did this for the sake of our own lives."
Dugu Wuyue's head was already covered in a mess, and she couldn't understand it at all, "Brother Zheng, how do you understand this?"
Mr. Lu said: "Wu Yue, this cannot be blamed on good deeds and mysterious ways."
Wang Xuan said: "You can't blame Brother Lu, it's all instructed us to do it."
Dugu Wuyue said: "What are you talking about?"
Mr. Lu said: "Actually - Hong Ling is not sick. It was me who used acupuncture method to make Hong Ling look sick. I had already given her a few injections yesterday and will be cured after today."
The room was quiet at first, and then Dugu Wuyue was happy to hear it: "Brother Shigua, you should be serious, don't lie to me."
Lu Shigua said: "I didn't lie to you. Xiao Wuyi hopes to use this method to make you reconcile with Hong Ling as before, but she did not force me to do this. I think this is a good way, so I agreed. Don't worry, Ji Ren has already told Hong Ling about this matter. We will go down the mountain first. Hong Ling will come to help you open the door later."
Bang!
The wooden door collapsed with a bang, stirring up a thick stream of dust!
Zheng Shanxing, Wang Xuandao, and Lu Shigua were so scared that they took a few steps back.
An angry figure could be seen in the thick dust.
"Everyone said that you will change to a solid door first." Wang Xuandao complained.
Zheng Shanxing said: "He hasn't eaten anything these days. How did I know he still has so much strength?"
Lu Shigua said in a cold sweat, "Now is not the time to complain."
"Master Lu, I treat you as my brother, you actually lied to me like this."
Dugu Wuyue passed through the thick dust, and her charming eyes were full of violence.
Wang Xuan said: "Wuyue, calm down, we are really kind."
Dugu Wuyue had a hideous face and gritted her teeth and said, "Good intention! Do you know how I spent these days? I even want to die. This is your kind intention. I can't spare you today."
Zheng Shanxing suddenly shouted to the left: "Uncle Yuan, come and preside over justice quickly."
I saw Yuanjiu sitting cross-legged on a big stone that he didn't want to, holding his chin with one hand, shouting: "Wuyue, if I were you, I would have to hang them on the edge of the cliff in the back mountain so that they could be afraid for a few days before they could relieve their hatred."
Zheng Shanxing was so scared that he was sweating coldly, and said in surprise: "Uncle Yuan, you--!"
Yuanjiu said, "You, what are you? The reason why I promised you before is to let you taste the taste of being deceived. Wuyue, don't be too long-winded, beat them up first before talking."
Wang Xuandao cursed: "Bastard! I know he is unreliable."
If Yuanjiu is reliable, he will really be able to climb a tree. He is the master who is afraid that the world will not be in chaos!
Dugu Wuyue couldn't say a word, her eyes showed a fierce light, and she approached step by step.
Zheng, Lu, and Wang looked at each other and retreated tacitly in three directions. This is Xiao Wuyi helping them develop tacit understanding. When Xiao Wuyi wanted to beat them in the past, they ran away separately. If you catch them, you will be unlucky, at least the rest of them will not suffer any flesh and blood.
Dugu Wuyue stared at Lu Shi Gua, suddenly bowed to the end, and said, "Thank you brothers. If you hadn't done this, I'd probably be confused all the time. Please receive a gift from Wuyue."
The three of them were stunned. Could this be a trick to lure the enemy?
"Wuyue, you--!" Lu Shigua said cautiously.
Dugu Wuyue raised her head, tears flashed in her eyes, and a smile on her face, saying, "I once swear that as long as Hong Ling can get better, I can pay any price. Maybe in your opinion, all this is a lie to me, but for me, you saved Hong Ling and me."
Zheng Shanxing said: "Then did that just now?"
"I just want to make sure you are not lying to me." Dugu Wuyue smiled and said, "Thank you! Please give me another gift!" He bowed again as he said that.
Lu Shigua breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "No need to thank you. As long as you understand that we are kind-hearted, not intentionally trying to tease you. In fact, we have also felt very guilty these days."
元鹫都看傻了,他可是来看热闹的,怎么弄了一出感情戏呀,这是他最烦见到的,直接蹦了起来,手舞足蹈道:“无月,你真是太单纯了,他们分明就是在戏弄你,你想想看,要是他们真为你好,干嘛还来这里,在崔家就可以告诉你了,赶紧揍他们一顿,不要害怕,元叔叔帮你做主!”
Zheng, Lu and Wang turned their heads at the same time, looking at Yuanjiu with contempt.
