Wu Hongshan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the dark night sky, and had not moved for a long time. At some point, he sighed heavily, and his whole body seemed to have become ten years old all of a sudden.

Today, the memorial of the governor of Lulong was announced in the court.

The memorial said that there is conclusive evidence that Li Guochang, the governor of Zhenwu, was the culprit of the murder of Kang Chengxun, and listed the evidence that the Zhenwu monks sneaked into Hedong to create chaos and trigger military and civil unrest. The most important evidence among them was several Zhenwu monks escorted to Chang'an by Lu Long.

The memorial caused an uproar in the court, and the hall was full of uproar, especially after Wang Duo and Lu Yan's party officials made generous speeches and denounced Zhenwu's rebellious deeds. The officials at the court were excited and rushed to condemn Zhenwu. The slaughtered the officials to the palace and angrily scolded him.

Wu Hongshan still felt scared when he thought about that posture. It was clearly the rhythm of killing Zhenwu's official and then using troops to Zhenwu.

Wu Hongshan didn't say a word during the whole process. He wanted to defend Zhenwu a few words because in his opinion, those so-called ironclad evidence actually still had many doubts and things worth pondering, and he had not given up on the plan to form an alliance with Zhenwu, but he could not.

The anger of the officials in the hall was out of control, and the officials were in agreement, just as they had agreed in advance, which made Wu Hongshan have to shut up.

After returning from the court, Wu Hongshan kept locking himself in the study. He knew very well that Zhenwu's reputation had been completely broken. Under such circumstances, the court would not marry a princess to Zhenwu again.

"Ming Gong, a guest is here."

Wu Hongshan didn't want to meet guests, but after hearing that the other party was Lu Long's referee, his heart suddenly moved and intuition told him that he should meet.

......

Wu Hongshan held the tea bowl and held the tea bowl a few times, but he still had no intention of drinking tea. He simply put the tea bowl down and looked at the guest in front of him and said, "Mr. Zhang is here today, what's wrong?"

Lu Long reported to the official Zhang He with a smile and said bluntly: "Your Majesty Wu knows why in the court today, when the Dukes heard the memorial of Zhenwu's murder of Duke Kang, they responded in groups and slandered the siege of Zhenwu's conspiracy to attack Zhenwu?"

Wu Hongshan was unwilling to lose face in front of outsiders, so he thought, "Everyone knows that when Wei Baoheng was in court, he once insisted that his daughter marry Zhenwu, so all the dukes believed that Wei Baoheng had colluded with Zhenwu. Now that Wei Baoheng has been punished, Wei Baoheng has not released the names of other officials in the account book, nor has he thoroughly investigated who had bribed Wei Baoheng, but all the officials in the court, who had any contact with Wei Baoheng, were trembling. At this time, slandering Zhenwu would deny Wei Baoheng, which is an opportunity that should not be missed for officials who urgently need to clear their relationship with Wei Baoheng."

"The prince consort's words are reasonable. It's still wrong." Zhang He smiled mysteriously.

"Where was wrong?" Wu Hongshan was stunned.

"The prince-in-law knows why Zhenwu dared to interfere in the case of Gong Kang's death. Just by some clues, he said it was Zhenwu's actions?" Zhang He asked back.

"This..." Wu Hongshan couldn't figure it out for a moment, "I would like to ask Mr. Zhang for advice."

"The lower official can only tell the prince's consort one name: King An." Zhang He's smile became increasingly unpredictable.

"King An? How is this possible?" Wu Hongshan was shocked, and he took a breath of cold air, his face full of disbelief.

"Your son-in-law knows that in the court today, the reason why the officials responded in groups was because there were arrangements between the prince and the road master?" Zhang He continued to go deeper.

"This... is indeed possible!" Wu Hongshan nodded. After Wei Baoheng collapsed, Wang Duo and Lu Yan were the two largest hills in the court. It is not an exaggeration to say that they both controlled the entire court.

"It's not possible, but it's true." Zhang He said confidently, "Do you know why the prince-consort?"

"This..." Wu Hongshan couldn't figure it out even more and hurriedly bowed, "I'd like to ask Mr. Zhang for advice."

"The same name: King An!" Zhang He said loudly.

"It's King An again? How is this possible?" Wu Hongshan was speechless and almost slapped the table.

Zhang He drank tea, moistening his throat, and his smile was as deep as the night. He stared at Wu Hongshan, making the other party feel cold in his heart. Then he said, "Why don't the prince consort think about it, why should King An do this? King An tries every means to suppress Zhenwu, what is the purpose?"

Wu Hongshan was about to say something, but because he was too anxious, he almost bit his tongue. He quickly shut up, his heart was already in a storm, his face changed drastically. He didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow, but he couldn't help but stand up and paced back and forth in the room.

"It seems that the prince consort is in a bad mood, so Zhang won't disturb him." Zhang He stood up and bowed to his goodbye.

"Please wait!" Wu Hongshan hurriedly called Zhang He and asked anxiously: "What is the purpose of Mr. Zhang coming to Wu today to talk about these things?"

Zhang He smiled and said nothing before bowing back, he just said: "Don't forget who the prince-consort fell down because of Wei Baoheng!"

Seeing Zhang He's figure disappearing from sight, Wu Hongshan was stunned, not moving for a long time.

He knew in his heart that all this was because of Li Ye!

The younger generation who had nothing at the beginning of the year!

"In less than a year, has this child... actually grown to this level?!"

Wu Hongshan was in a state of ease and restlessness. "Now, the most powerful princes and Duke Lu in the court have all listened to him! Isn't that saying that even if he doesn't have the position of prime minister, he actually has the ability of prime minister? And... and Zhang He actually spoke for him. Doesn't this mean that the governor Lu Long, who has always been rebellious, surrendered to him?!"

"The inner court and the outer court are strong, and even Mr. Wei did not do anything, but this son did it silently?! This..."

"He can do it, because wasn't it just that Mr. Wei was brought down by him?! He could even Mr. Wei, and it was indeed possible to do this... But how did he do it?! Wang Duo, Lu Yan, the dignified prime minister, would be willing to join him?! This son... King An, is so terrible!"

Realizing this, Wu Hongshan's hands were trembling and restless. He remembered his previous attitude towards Li Ye, and suddenly felt extremely bad. He regretted for a moment, and even his intestines turned blue!

Wu Hongshan suddenly realized that Li Ye's energy is beyond his imagination now, but no matter what, Li Ye is already at its peak. If he wants to take revenge on him, Wu Hongshan, wouldn't it be easy and easy to capture it?

Wei Baoheng, the big tree he had previously attached, has fallen, and he has now become a "lonely man" in the officialdom! If Li Ye wants to deal with him, who can help him? Who is willing to help him? Who dares to help him?

"Hurry up, call Princess Li over!"

"No, I'll go there myself!"

When I entered the door, I saw Wu You, and the little girl was embroidering her flowers.

When he suddenly saw Wu Hongshan, the little girl was panicked and hid the flower cloth behind her. She looked like she was caught doing something wrong and looked around and said, "Why is my father here?"

"What are you embroidered? Show it to your father." Wu Hongshan looked happy.

"Father..." The little girl was very shy and her face turned red.

Wu Hongshan's hand stroke, and a gust of wind passed, and the flower cloth came to his hand. When he looked down, he saw that it was a pair of mandarin ducks, which had been initially formed. There were two words on both sides of the mandarin ducks, namely "Ye" and "You"!

"Father, how can you do this!" Wu You was angry at first, then lowered his head, surrounded his index fingers with both hands, and the sound was like a mosquito, "Father, I was wrong..."

Although she and Li Ye were in love and were quite rebellious, after all, her parents ordered the matchmaker to say that although she was willful, she was not ignorant of the generalities. She also knew that she had caused a lot of trouble for Wu Hongshan. Now she knew that she had done something wrong again, so she was inevitably uneasy.

Wu You drooped her little head and was ready to be scolded. After all, she had already had a lot of experiences like this. Wu Hongshan had always had only one attitude towards her and Li Ye, that is, to draw a clear line and strictly draw a clear line!

However, the expected thunderous anger did not come. Wu You lowered his head and waited for a long time, but did not hear any movement. Wu Hongshan didn't even breathe heavily in anger. She couldn't help but wonder, quietly raised her little head and peeked at Wu Hongshan.

It would be fine if I didn't look at it, but I was stunned when I saw Wu You.

I saw Wu Hongshan holding a flower cloth in his hand and suddenly lost his mind. He didn't know what he was thinking, but his eyes were empty. And I didn't know if he was wrong. Wu You was surprised to find that there was tears flashing in Wu Hongshan's eyes, as if he had seen something extremely touched!

"Father..." Wu Hongshan's appearance scared Wu You very much, and she thought to herself, what's wrong? Could it be that my father is going to cry?

Wu Hongshan was almost crying, and was moved by Wu You. It was a pity that Wu You always felt sincere to Li Ye. Even though he had always opposed it, he still persevered and kept his mind and did not give up. Fortunately, Li Ye was also sincere to Wu You. The current situation of the Prince Consort's Mansion could be a turning point!

For the precious turning point brought by this difficult persistence, Wu Hongshan was so moved that he wanted to cry.

Wu Hongshan realized his loss of composure, quickly coughed twice, pretending to say, "Well...How long has it been since you met His Highness An?"

"Your Highness An?" Wu You looked confused. The first thing that came to mind was Lao An Li Xian, because Wu Hongshan had never respected Li Ye as King An in private. "Did my father say Brother Ye? My father should know that since you were confined to you, I have been in the mansion and never left the house. Only when Brother Ye came, I met once..."

Speaking of this, Wu You's face immediately collapsed. She thought Wu Hongshan was going to blame her, and she was so aggrieved that she was about to cry: "Father, I didn't run out privately. I'm not so ignorant yet. You actually doubt me..."

"Suspicious of you? Why do you doubt you for your father?" Wu Hongshan was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it, "Since you haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss him? Don't you want to meet him?"

Wu You widened his obsidian-like eyes, his face full of incredible feelings, as if he suspected that he had heard something wrong.

Wu Hongshan actually asked her if she wanted to see Li Ye?

And are all encouragement inside and outside?

What's going on?

Could it be a trap? Wu Hongshan is testing her?

"I think the moonlight is good today. Maybe Your Highness An wants to see you..." Wu Hongshan said this, his old face turned red, thinking that he was too anxious. How could a father ask his daughter to go out to meet his lover at night? He quickly coughed, "You'd better go tomorrow... see you... right?"

Wu Hongshan was stunned before he finished speaking.

Because Wu You had already had a gust of wind, he disappeared from him and rushed out of the door in an instant.

Wu Hongshan's face twisted, it was so exciting.

After a long time, he finally sighed and whispered to himself: "Don't blame me for being a father's power. It is a forced person to climb up. Being a fence-ridden faction... If there is a chance, who doesn't want to stand up?"

......

It was not early, and although the curfew was only aimed at the main street and did not restrict people from walking around the yard, there were no pedestrians on the street. The weeping willows by the river were only dry branches swaying gently in the night wind of winter.

Li Ye stood with his hands on the riverside, and couldn't help but think of the scene of lantern season when countless men and women gathered by the river and put colorful lanterns on the river surface. It was always very lively at that time.

"You two, don't have to hide. It's so hard to follow me for so long. The wind is cold in the winter night, so it's better to finish the work earlier and go home to rest early." Li Ye said lightly at the river surface without looking back.

Opposite the river, Song Wentong appeared from the shadow, and Wang Jian had already appeared behind him. A large group of black shadows appeared in his hill-like body.

"You have discovered us long ago?" Wang Jian's deep voice sounded twenty steps behind Li Ye.

Li Ye saw the faces of the two, was slightly stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I know someone follows me, but I don't know it's you two."

He sighed in his heart: "Shu Emperor Jian, King Qi Li Maozhen... Liu Xingshen, Han Wen's appointment, do you know what weight do these two people you sent to assassinate me have?"

On the other side of the river, the killer who is handsome and heroic, and is indistinguishable from male and female is King Qi Li Maozhen!

Of course, his name is Song Wentong now, and he has not been given the surname by the emperor yet - the one who gave him the surname Li in his previous life was Li Ye himself!

King Qi Li Maozhen, one of the great princes at the end of the Tang Dynasty, occupied Guanzhong and was the third largest force in Jiangbei except Emperor Liang Zhu Quanzhong and King Jin Li Keyong!

In his previous life, after Li Maozhen formed a power, he once controlled Chang'an and held Li Ye hostage!

Wang Jian behind Li Ye achieved even greater success. After seizing Shu, he directly became emperor and founded the Former Shu Dynasty! And with the power of a single place in Shu, he stopped Nanzhao's invasion of the north, and made Nanzhao unable to fight back!

Compared with these two people, Li Ye, who did nothing in his previous life and was forced to commit suicide in the end, was simply a little shrimp.

However, that was in the past life.
Chapter completed!
