Wu Zetian came to the front of the prince's bedroom with heavy steps, looked at the closed palace door, frowned and said, "What about the prince?"
Lan Fei'er, who followed her, hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the prince has been closed in the palace for the past few days, refusing to see anyone, and even three meals a day are sent in by slaves.
The prince suddenly went crazy and clamored to see His Majesty, and after being persuaded back by the slaves and maids, he hid in the palace again and refused to come out. ” Wu Zetian said lightly: "Open the door" "Whoa" Lan Fei'er hurriedly agreed, gently pushed open the door, and Wu Zetian said: "You are waiting here" Wei Tuan'er hurriedly said: "Everyone goes in alone, Tuan'er is worried" Wu Zetian glanced at her and said lightly: "My son, I don't have the courage to kill my mother in public, what is there to worry about?"
Wu Zetian stepped into the prince's bedroom, Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Wei Tuan'er, and stood quietly next to the palace gate.
Wu Zetian walked into the dormitory, only to feel that the light inside was dim, giving people a very dull feeling, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and raised his voice to call: "Dan'er" There was silence behind the screen for a moment, and a frightened voice was heard: "Who's calling me who's calling me" Wu Zetian was slightly angry, raised his voice and said, "Dan'er, can't you even hear your mother's voice?"
"Ahh There was an exclamation from behind the screen, and then there was a sound of "let's da, da", and Li Dan ran out with his hair scattered.
Wu Zetian looked at him, her son was dressed in a white coat, with a disheveled head, a pale face, frightened eyes, and two big sleeves hanging down, and the situation was not embarrassing.
Wu Zetian's gaze slowly fell again, fixed on Li Dan's feet, he was barefoot, and he didn't even wear shoes.
"Ah, Mother, Mother" Li Dan was about to give a salute in a panic, but Wu Zetian waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, there are only you and my mother and son here, so there is no need to be so formal."
She turned around and sat down on a couch, and as soon as she sat down, Li Dan threw herself at her feet, hugged her legs, and cried loudly: "Mother, Dan'er will never dare to have bad intentions, intending to hurt the mother and the emperor, the son is wronged, the son is really wronged."
Wu Zetian was hugged by him and cried, shaking her body slightly, she said calmly: "However, someone found the talisman and puppet of the practice in your palace."
Li Dan burst into tears and said: "My son is wronged, my son has never seen those things, and Liu and Dou are too."
Wu Zetian suddenly interrupted him and asked, "What's the matter with you and Tuan'er?"
"Ahh Li Dan was a little dazed, he raised his head, wiped his tears and said, "What's the matter with Tuan'er and Tuan'er girl?"
Wu Zetian's eyes sharpened, stared at him and said, "Tuan'er is interested in being with you, I want to be your crown princess."
Li Dan blurted out: "No" Facing Wu Zetian's sharp gaze, Li Dan's tone became stammering: "Ah, son, once, Miss Tuan'er was just in charge of the palace, sometimes" Wu Zetian saw his eyes fluttering, and sneered: "I, I already know everything" Li Dan was stunned, and suddenly kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Mother, that's just the meaning of the Tuan'er girl, the son didn't agree, the crown princess was chosen by the mother for the son, how dare the son make his own decisions."
Miss Tuan'er is a female official close to her mother, how dare her son ask for her" Li Dan seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly explained: "Miss Tuan'er said that as long as the son writes a secret decree to her first, and after the mother lives a thousand years, she can take more care of the East Palace, and will say a few good words for her son by the mother's side, but the son didn't dare to agree to her, the son is not the emperor, how can he make any secret decree, this rule, the son still understands" "Don't say it" Wu Zetian didn't expect to hear such words from her son's mouth, she was extremely angry at first, but the anger quickly disappeared, replaced by endless sadness: "I am really old, and even the closest people around me are making plans for the future after my funeral."
My nephews are worried about my throne, and the ministers of the court are worried about the ownership of the country after my funeral, and Tuan'er wants to be the queen."
Wu Zetian gradually calmed down his breath, stared at Li Dan and said, "Why have I never heard you talk about this matter?"
Li Dan was cramped by Wu Zetian's sharp gaze and lowered his head uneasily, and said in a snort: "Er'er doesn't know what to say, Er'er doesn't have any credentials, Tuan'er Tuan'er is the most trusted person around his mother."
Wu Zetian looked at him, Li Dan looked confused, his lips were chapped, and there were many blisters on his lips, looking unusually haggard.
Wu Zetian couldn't help but sigh in the sky, and said faintly: "Could it be that my trust in an outsider really exceeds that of my own biological son?"
Her words seemed to be asking herself, and she seemed to be asking Li Dan, but Li Dan didn't dare to answer, just kowtowed deeply and fell silent.
Wu Zetian slowly lowered his head, looked at Li Dan who was lying on the ground, and his voice returned to peace: "Dan'er, you asked someone to pass the word to Weiniang, you don't want to be the prince anymore."
Li Dan hurriedly said: "It's the son who has no virtue and no talent, and sitting on the throne of this prince is really ashamed of the world."
In addition, the son's daily life is not very decent, and he often provokes unnecessary rights and wrongs, which affects the relationship between the son and the mother, so please ask the mother to abolish the son's position as the prince."
Wu Zetian slowly raised his head, looked at the rays of sunlight shining in from the half-opened palace gate, and asked a little blankly: "Abolish your crown prince, then who will inherit my country?"
Li Dan was overjoyed and said: "There is also the seventh brother, the seventh brother is in Fangzhou, or the king of Wei and the king of Liang are also good."
Halfway through his words, he was forced back by Wu Zetian's cold gaze, and lowered his head in panic.
Wu Zetian was silent for a moment and said, "I don't mean to be easy to store. ” Li Dan lay on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, but paused.
Wu Zetian said again: "But you are really not very cautious in dealing with people, and you give people a lot of truth.
Even if you have no objection, it is inevitable that someone will slander and slander, once or twice for the mother can not believe it, say too much, how can you not have doubts, and give outsiders an opportunity to take advantage of. ” She slowly stood up and said, "That's it, you, continue to be your prince, in order not to give others a handle and say that you have bad intentions, you should be more cautious in doing things in the future." ” Li Dan was still lying on the ground, his body motionless, like a carved stone turtle, but his hands hidden under his sleeves had been tightly clasped to the ground, if not, he really couldn't suppress the impulse of ecstasy, this catastrophe, he had a thrilling escape Wu Zetian's waveless voice still echoed in the palace: "I know that there will always be people who want to catch you, and in the future, you will live in the East Palace with peace of mind, the subordinate officials of the East Palace have been abolished, and the rules of receiving the ministers every ten years have also stopped." ” Li Dan hurriedly said: "Yes" Wu Zetian glanced at him, and said: "You are the crown prince, and before you inherit the throne, I have set up the imperial grandson, and I have also made all the imperial grandsons other than the imperial grandson princes, no wonder you are hated."
In this way, the imperial grandson will be lowered by two squares, and the other four imperial grandsons will be lowered by one square, and the imperial grandson and the prince will be demoted to the king of the county, and there will be no longer a special palace for them, and the prince's guard and honor guard will be withdrawn, and they will be taken to the East Palace to accompany you, which will also save you from being lonely in the East Palace. ” Li Dan hurriedly said: "Thank you mother, for your success."
Wu Zetian didn't speak again, Li Dan lay on the ground for a long time, quietly raised his head to see, I don't know when, Wu Zetian had already left his bedroom.
Li Dan still maintained a kneeling posture, his hands on the ground, silent for a long time, and an inexplicable smile gently escaped from the corner of his mouth.
He used to be an emperor, and when he was an emperor, he was not a qualified emperor; He is now the prince, and when he is the prince, he is not a qualified prince.
However, he is a qualified actor Prince Li Xian, Prince Li Hong, are both shrewd and capable people, when they were still the prince, they were praised by hundreds of officials, called them will become virtuous monarchs, what is the result, they have not become virtuous monarchs, they have already become dead ghosts, and he is still alive and well.
He really doesn't have any lofty ambitions, what ancestors and ancestors, what emperors and hegemons, all of them are bullshit, as long as he can live, he will be satisfied.
But it's not easy to live by such a mother Wu Zetian walked out of the prince's bedroom, Shangguan Wan'er and a group of palace eunuchs were secretly relieved, Wu Zetian didn't say a word, they helped him to leave the palace, there was a step that had just been carried in front of the palace gate, Wu Zetian boarded the step, and only said three words: "Feixiang Palace" The team escorted Wu Zetian to the Feixiang Palace, Wu Zetian ascended to the seat and sat down, glanced at Wei Tuan'er, and said lightly: "The Liu family and the Dou family are dead, and the prince doesn't even have his own people around him, Tuan'er, you said that I made you the crown princess, how?"
Wei Tuan'er was so frightened that her legs weakened, she knelt on the ground with a "porphyr" sound, and said in a panic: "Everyone, Tuan'er only wants to wait by everyone's side, what kind of princess, Tuan'er doesn't want to do it." ” Wu Zetian sneered: "I'm old, I won't live for a few years, you are a good age like a spring flower, can you keep me for a few years, princess, don't you want to do it, then I will allow you to be a queen, let you be the mother of the world, what do you think?"
Hearing such heart-wrenching words, Wei Tuan'er was only shocked that her heart and gall were broken, she slammed her head on the ground, and in a moment her fair and clear forehead was bruised, oozing drops of blood.
Wu Zetian waved his hand and said in disgust: "Drag it down" Wei Tuan'er finally cried bitterly: "Everyone, the slave and the maid are wronged, the slave and the maid are wronged, and the slave and the maid are framed."
In the cry, Wei Tuan'er was dragged out of the hall by two guards, Wu Zetian sneered and turned to Shangguan Wan'er, and said in a deep voice: "You take someone to search the residence of the, and ask clearly, who instructed her to frame the prince" To be continued:
