Chapter 50: Fake Public Service for Private
Chapter 50: Fake public and private
If Li Longji hadn't successfully overturned the case, Princess Taiping would be the biggest winner tonight.
First, Wu Zetian killed Li Dan's family, which not only achieved the goal of eliminating Li Dan, but also laid the foreshadowing.
The emperor Li Dan is not only a thorn in Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi's eyes, but even Princess Taiping wants to get rid of him, but she hides deeply. Before tonight, she never reveals it, but hides in the dark.
When the time is right, Princess Taiping herself, or through her confidants, told Wu Zetian that she had killed the wrong one. Li Dan and her family had to deal with Zhang Changzong in order to protect her face.
What would she do if Wu Zetian?
She must have killed two fools, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi.
If only Li Dan was killed, Wu Zetian might not have killed these two idiots, but this is Li Dan's family, with dozens of people in total. If they don't kill them, it would not be enough to avenge Li Dan's family.
Not killing the two is not enough to vent Wu Zetian's anger.
In this way, Li Dan, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi were all eliminated, leaving only Emperor Zhongzong of Tang Li Xian.
Emperor Zhongzong of Tang was deposed and demoted to Luling to become the King of Luling, but he did not stay in Luoyang.
Li Xian was a foolish and incompetent person, and Wu Sansi cuckolded him, and he had to praise Wu Sansi. The shrewd Princess Taiping naturally didn't take him seriously. It was very simple to try to kill him.
Even if Princess Taiping blatantly killed Li Xian, Wu Zetian would not do anything to her. Not only could she not be punished, but she would also cover up her up and publicize how virtuous Princess Taiping was.
Because his son died and his grandson was gone, his trusted nephew was killed, leaving only Princess Taiping. If Wu Zetian killed her, she would be a lonely man. In this case, Wu Zetian had no choice but to pass the throne to Princess Taiping.
If you don’t pass it, you have to pass it. If you don’t pass it, you have to pass it. If you don’t pass it, you still want to bring it into the coffin?
"She...she...so cruel!" After Li Longji explained, Li Dan was sweating all over, his hands and feet were cold, his face was full of sadness and despair.
Li Dan loved Princess Taiping, very much. He never expected that she would be so cruel and wanted her family to be her stepping stone.
"I don't have this little sister. From now on, we have been ruthless!" Li Dan was so sad that tears fell.
"That's right." Li Chengqi and the others were so disappointed with Princess Taiping, and they agreed with this.
They value family affection very much, and Princess Taiping's move hurts their hearts too much.
"No!" However, what they didn't expect was that Li Longji shook his head: "Not only do you have to forgive her, but you also have to make friends with her."
"What? What do you say?" Li Dan's eyes almost fell out, staring at Li Longji with a puzzled look on his face.
"Third brother, don't talk nonsense." Li Chengqi shouted.
Princess Taiping is too cruel. Such a person is not worthy of being a relative. Li Longji not only wants to forgive her, but also makes friends with her. This is too puzzling, and they cannot help but be confused.
"Although she married Wu Youji, no one regarded her as a member of the Wu family, she is still a member of our Li family." Li Longji explained, "We are consistent in dealing with Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi, and we can join forces."
"Yes." Li Dan thought about it and realized something.
"In this matter tonight, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi should have confiscated their families. Your Majesty only cut off their fiefs and titles, and did not do anything to them. This is because they are still irreplaceable in His Majesty's mind." Li Longji's eyes flashed and he said, "They are still deeply rooted in His Majesty's mind. It is difficult for us to defeat the two of them alone. With Princess Taiping helping him, it will be much easier."
Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi used Wu Zetian's secret matter to make trouble. This was a big deal. According to the principle, Wu Zetian wanted to confiscate their homes and destroy their families. However, Wu Zetian only cut off their fief and seized their throne, because Wu Zetian still trusted them and wanted to choose one of the two to become the crown prince.
Although Li Longji is smart, it will be very difficult to defeat the two of them. If Princess Taiping helps, it will be much easier.
"Okay. I will forgive her." Li Dan nodded, and then a little surprised and said, "Sanlang, since you have thought of it for a long time, why should you stop me from forgiveing her?"
Li Dan wanted to forgive Princess Taiping several times, but was stopped by Li Longji. Li was really puzzled.
"We want to forgive her, but it won't work tonight, that's too easy." Li Longji gave her a mystery.
"That's it?" Li Dan thought for a while, nodded, and said, "That's right."
Struggle is an art, and you must pay attention to strategy!
"Third brother, have you already thought about how to finish this matter?" Li Chengyi stared at Li Longji and complained: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Let's worry about it in vain."
"Shut up." Before Li Longji could speak, Li Dan scolded and said, "Can you tell me this matter as soon as you come? If you have to say it for sure, you have to say it."
He was right, this kind of thing that can be said to be exposed. If I were to say it, what would Wu Zetian think? She would definitely think, are you here to expose my true feelings or prove your innocence?
Due to the situation, maybe she couldn't do anything to Li Longji at that time, and would praise him and reward him. But she wouldn't settle the accounts after the autumn?
It's terrible to settle accounts after autumn.
It is precisely because of this that Li Longji did not say it as soon as he came, but asked Zhang Shuo to testify first. If Princess Taiping hadn't intervened, Zhang Shuo would have ended.
He was forced to death by Princess Taiping. If he didn't say anything, his whole family would be beheaded. Only then did Li Longji say it "unfettered", and everything was natural.
"Third brother, I really have something to do. Why do you want a little General Jinwu?" Li Chengqi stroked his forehead, unable to understand.
"Yes." Li Dan complained: "You are a dignified prince and you also need a bigger official. It's too much to be down from the fifth rank."
Li Longji is the King of Chu. It is really a waste of money to be a small official from the fifth rank. Li Chengqi and the others nodded in agreement.
"Although General Jinwu is small, he is practical." Li Longji said with a smile.
"Practical? How to use it?" Princess Shouchang asked hurriedly.
"Hehe!" Li Longji did not explain, but let out a malicious laugh.
Seeing that he couldn't tell the question, Li Dan and the others stopped asking.
There will be nothing to do next, and life will be very peaceful.
After three days of continuous visit, Li Chengqi was surprised and asked, "Third brother, why don't you, General Jinwu, go to inspect the rules?"
General Jinwu was in charge of the inspection of the law. Logically speaking, Li Longji was going to do business, but no one expected that Li Longji would not have any movement.
"Let's talk about the grand ceremony of the sun." Li Longji smiled.
"Watch the Great Court Meeting in Sun? Why should I wait for the Great Court Meeting in Sun?" Li Chengqi became even more puzzled.
"This is nothing! Of course, there will be more people in the face, and the slap will be louder!" Li Longji said in his heart.
In a blink of an eye, on May 15th, the grand ceremony of the sun has arrived.
On that day, Li Longji got up very early and took Chen Xuanli, Xue Zhi and the others to the Wanxiang Temple.
Wu Yizong was wearing a brocade robe, high crown, leather shoes, and a robe. He looked like a man and looked tall and raised his head. He came to the Wanxiang Temple and raised his foot to enter the Wanxiang Temple.
"Take it!" At this moment, a loud shout came from a group of warriors rushed over like wolves and tigers, and overturned him to the ground.
"You...Li Longji?" When Emperor Wu Yizong saw that Li Longji was the leader, he couldn't help but be furious and shouted: "You are so brave, you dare to disrespect me!"
"Official? Are you still an official? This is also something you, a poor villain in the market?" Li Longji's face sank and shouted like thunder: "Blow me! Beat hard!"
"Beat? Do you dare to hit me?" Wu Yizong didn't believe this evil.
