Seeing Gaozong fainted, even Empress Wu panicked. She quickly stepped forward to help Gaozong up, but she didn't expect him to hold on. At this time, Gaozong was about to fall to the ground.
Gaozong's health itself was not good. If he fell straight down like this now, the situation would probably be more serious. If anything happened to Waiyi, Empress Wu's plans would be completely ruined. After all, her plan to seize power has just been implemented. It was less than half. Therefore, Empress Wu was already extremely anxious.
But at this moment, a short figure was seen rushing towards him, and then he lifted Gaozong up the moment his head fell to the ground, thus avoiding further tragedy.
"Xian'er, thanks to you this time." Seeing that the figure who helped Gaozong up turned out to be her most trusted and beloved son Li Xian, Empress Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said with tears: "I have already I have lost a good niece, and if your Majesty is in trouble again, how will I survive?"
I saw Li Xian gently helping Gaozong up, pinching him and stroking his chest. After working hard for a long time, Gaozong finally woke up and turned around.
"Yue, Yue'er." The first thing Gaozong did after waking up was not to ask how he was. Instead, he struggled to come to Helan Minyue, who was already furious, and shouted with tears streaming down his face.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't be sad. Yue'er will never, can't accompany you anymore. Your Majesty, I will repay Yue'er's kindness to Yue'er only when she comes and will repay you in the next life..."
Helan Minyue wanted to say something more, but she couldn't take a breath, and she died just like that.
"Yue'er."
"Yue'er."
When Mrs. Han and Emperor Gaozong saw Helan Minyue's death, they all burst into tears. Li Xian, who was standing beside him, felt miserable in his heart. Although he knew that Helan Minyue's death was destined this time, he also knew that he was actually destined to die. He also assumed the role of an accomplice, because if it weren't for his "guidance", brothers Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun would not have set up such a family banquet. "Suddenly", Empress Wu would not be given the opportunity to send a spy to secretly apply poison on the object, causing Helan Minyue to die so quickly.
What made Li Xian feel even more ashamed was that he actually buried a love affair of Gaozong with his own hands. Although it was an unethical love, it was Gaozong's only spiritual sustenance after he fell from power. Now even this only sustenance No wonder Gaozong's body collapsed quickly in the future. Until now, Li Xian didn't know whether the price he paid to secretly confront Empress Wu was worth it.
However, Li Xian knew that he had no way out now. The only thing he had to do, and even the only thing he could do to inherit Helan Minyue's last wish, was to take the opportunity to deprive Empress Wu of her power, especially those nephews from her natal family who she would rely on very much in the future. Son.
In fact, it wasn't just Li Xian. The other onlookers also felt sad and secretly sighed, except for Empress Wu who was pretending to shed a few tears and the Wu clan members who were already pale and at a loss.
"Ugh, Yue'er died for me. I was the one who should have died. This damn thief is so despicable and shameless, poisoning and killing people. What hatred does Yue'er have against you? What hatred does I have against you? ?What grudge does your Majesty have against you? Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun, have your consciences been eaten by dogs? I admit that I am indeed biased against you, so I demoted you to Bianzhou as the governor, but I want to We are blood relatives, haven't we given you a chance? What's more, I asked Your Majesty to give you nephews to prepare for thousands of cattle, but you still have evil intentions, murdering Your Majesty, murdering me, today I If you don't kill your relatives for justice, how can you be worthy of Yue'er, who knows how to live under the spring?"
Empress Wu's eyes were fixed on Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun, and she immediately ordered: "Baiqi will listen to the order and capture Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun and everyone in the mansion, and put them on death row to await their disposal."
"Ah? Your Highness the Queen, I have been wronged. I think I am your Highness's cousin, and I am a close relative of your Highness. How could you do such a thing? What's more, how many of you have the guts to do something poisonous?
What happened to the Holy Emperor?" Seeing that Empress Wu turned against her, Wu Weiliang kowtowed quickly and hurriedly defended himself. Seeing that Empress Wu did not listen to the explanation, he realized that it was Empress Wu who had decided the plan. He couldn't help but secretly cursed her for being vicious and kowtowed to Gaozong.
While kowtowing, he cried and shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have been wronged. I believe that there must be some ulterior motive in this case. Your Majesty must investigate in detail to avoid unjustly accusing a good person."
At this time, Li Xian, who was listening on the side, stepped forward, kicked Wu Weiliang down violently, gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Weiliang, why are you wronged? This is in your house, and the cook is Erzhiba, give it to Sister Yue
Those who serve the food are also your servants. There are all witnesses and evidence here, and we are not blind, so we cannot tolerate your sophistry."
Li Xianping was not favored by Empress Wu, but he had always been the best friends with Helan Minyue's siblings. Now that he saw Helan Minyue's death, he was naturally heartbroken. He originally wanted to kill the Wu brothers to avenge Helan Minyue, but now
Seeing that this old guy was shamelessly claiming that he was wronged, he naturally couldn't bear it anymore and immediately stepped forward to defend Helan Minyue.
Emperor Gaozong's mood had stabilized a little at this time, and he agreed very much with what his wife and son said, and then he shouted with a sullen face: "Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun, cherished the kindness of the emperor but did not know how to repay it, ignored his close relatives, and deliberately murdered me and the queen.
However, because Mrs. Wei accidentally ate it, I and the Queen escaped by chance. These thieves have treacherous intentions and are guilty of unforgivable crimes. They have to be questioned and the case must be closed within three days. Where is Baiqi? You didn't hear what the Queen said.
?If we haven’t sent these madmen to death row, how long will it take?”
"No." After hearing the emperor's personal order, the wolf-like and tiger-like hundreds of cavalry guards agreed in unison, and immediately captured the stunned Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun and a group of Wu's nephews, and then took them to death row.
"But what should we do with the family members of the two thieves? Please ask your majesty to judge. After all, these are female family members, and they are also the aunts and cousins of the son..." Li Xian saw that Gaozong was about to leave, but he was not prepared to let these people go.
Man, he quickly asked for instructions.
"This, alas, they are all women after all. They are not as guilty as their wives and children, or they are still..."
However, Empress Wu stepped forward, interrupted Gaozong's words, and said categorically: "Your Majesty, although these people are all relatives of my concubine, the country has national laws and I dare not show favoritism. Therefore, I believe that these people
Women and children must also be captured and thrown into the Ye Court as slaves. Otherwise, how can we maintain the power of the country and the law?"
"That being the case, I will comply with the Queen's instructions and capture all the women and children in the two thieves' homes and throw them into the Ye Court as slaves. I am a little tired. I will leave the unfinished business to the Queen's discretion."
After finishing speaking, Gaozong sighed sadly, looked at Helan Minyue's body reluctantly, and then slowly returned.
But when Gaozong just walked to the door, he saw Empress Wu suddenly burst into tears, then knelt down and shouted to her: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. Everything is my fault. Today, something like this happened in my house."
Two scoundrels actually deliberately plotted to kill Your Majesty and almost brought disaster to my family. Now that the matter has come to this, what else can I say? I can only ask Your Majesty to grant this concubine a death and apologize to Your Majesty."
As Empress Wu spoke, she knelt down in front of Gaozong, with tears streaming down her face. She was as beautiful as pear blossoms with rain. Gaozong couldn't help but feel soft. He gently helped Empress Wu up and comforted her softly: "This is all the fault of the two thieves. What does it have to do with the empress?"
? Queen, you don’t have to feel guilty about this. Get up quickly. Alas, after spending the whole night today, the Queen has also suffered a lot of grievances. If nothing happens, please come back with me. "
Afterwards, Gaozong gently took Empress Wu's arm and returned to the palace in a restless state.
"Oh, Yue'er, why is your name so bitter? I originally expected to be able to sing harmoniously with you forever, but I didn't expect that you would die like this today and leave me so cruelly. You know.
As soon as you leave, I have no sustenance in my heart. God, God, I am the emperor, but I can't get the sympathy of God. I can't even protect a little girl. What's the fun of being the emperor?
?”
After returning to the palace, Gaozong did not rest immediately. He kept thinking about Helan Minyue's beautiful figure in his mind. The more he imagined it, the more heartache he felt, and the more tears accumulated, and for a while, he flowed like a waterfall.
Absolutely.
But even so, God didn't seem to let him go. Just when he was heartbroken, he suddenly heard the chamberlain Cheng Lishi shouting in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something serious has happened."
"Why are you so panicked? You useless servant, this noise in the middle of the night has made me restless. I said, if nothing happens, be careful of your stupidity."
Because his sorrow was interrupted, Gaozong couldn't help but feel unhappy and shouted loudly at Cheng Dali.
"If nothing happens, I will not dare to disturb Your Majesty." Cheng Dali knelt down quickly and said with a sigh: "Your Majesty, something serious is going to happen. Madam Korea, Madam Korea..."
"Ah? What's wrong with Mrs. Korea? You, you dog, please tell me quickly." After listening to what Cheng Dali said, Emperor Gaozong became even more impatient. He quickly grabbed Cheng Dali's collar and shouted loudly. Due to the excessive force, his face was covered with blood.
Twisted.
"This, this, Your Majesty expresses my condolences. Mrs. Korea committed suicide because she was heartbroken over the death of Mrs. Wei..."
"What are you talking about? Sister, my good eldest sister, why have you left me? Wuwuwu..." Gaozong, who was shocked by the news, started crying again after hearing the news.
burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my condolences. Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body. If you continue like this, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it." Seeing Gaozong like this, Cheng Dali burst into tears. He quickly patted Gaozong's back, and then gently
of comfort.
Unexpectedly, the more he persuaded him, the sadder Gaozong cried. Finally, his throat felt sweet and he spit out a large mouthful of blood, and he passed out. This chapter has been completed!
