Chapter 214 Bloodbath

Wu Zetian stood up. Although the matter today went through a lot of twists and turns, the result was still satisfying her.

Now Wu Zetian is guarded by everyone. Everything she sees is surrender. The people surrender, civil and military officials surrender, the Li Tang royal family surrenders, and the most difficult prime ministers to deal with are also surrender.

Wu Zetian struggled for forty years and stayed in the position of empress dowager for nearly ten years. Finally, she cleared all obstacles. Now everyone in the world is persuaded to enter and ask her to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Li Dan knelt in front of her surrounded by several sons. Her weakest son just expressed his heart to her in tears, kneeling down and begging her mother to be the emperor and rule the world, saying that this is the will of heaven. Wu Zetian became emperor because he followed the will of heaven.

Since the day Li Dan ascended the throne, he has not been to court for a day and is a puppet, so he is also very clear about his position. When he needed him, he stood up and supported Wu Zetian without hesitation.

Wu Zetian was so proud that Princess Taiping had a twists and turns just now no longer matters. What she needs now is to follow God's will?

No! Wu Zetian still felt that it was not decent enough, so she had to wait any longer. She had to wait for the ministers to ask for help and repeatedly persuade them to advance. In this way, she could be truly decent if she followed the will of heaven.

She immediately helped Li Dan up and said, "Son of the Emperor, don't be so unaware of your ambition. You have not made any mistakes since you ascended the throne. How could you easily abdicate? My mother is old. Although it is okay to assist the Emperor of the Emperor, how could she ascend the throne and become emperor by herself?

OK, don’t mention this topic anymore. I have decided to do it and will never ascend the throne and become emperor!"

"God's Queen! God's will cannot be violated!" Wu Chengsi shouted with a thick face blushing.

When he shouted, the other flattering and slapping people shouted together. Wu Sansi was the Minister of Rites and said, "The Queen of Heaven, God can ask for his will. Before God had Gods given the Gods a picture of God, and this picture is known to everyone in the world. Why don't the Queen of Heaven sacrifice to Luoshui and then report this picture to the world?"

Wu Zetian glanced at Wu Sansi, and a look of praise appeared in her eyes. She was so satisfied with her nephew! Today's occasion is not a good occasion to follow the will of heaven, so Wu Zetian chose to refuse.

The next occasion was very important. Wu Sansi was so smart that he brought out the "Holy Mother's Coming" incident and asked Wu Zetian to hold another activity, which was to sacrifice to Luoshui.

Wu Zetian likes this occasion the most. When the emperor turned around, the emperor led all civil and military officials and the nobles of the Shendu to go to the shore of Luoshui. He passed the Luoshui to obtain the God-given God-given map, and then repeatedly kowtowed and asked for help. At that time, Wu Zetian personally sacrificed Luoshui and then asked Li Danya to offer sacrifices.

After all this, she naturally announced that she would follow the will of heaven and ascend the throne to emperor. She immediately changed her country's name and year name, divided into four places, and pardoned the world!

Wu Sansi met Wu Zetian's eyes and knew that he had fulfilled his intentions. He was so happy that he trembled all over and immediately began to plan the sacrifice to Luoshui in his heart.

As for Wu Zetian, after he rejected everyone's kindness, he would eliminate all hidden dangers one by one.

The Cuju competition came to an end, and after the hustle and bustle, the gods seemed to have returned to calm. However, under this calm surface, the surging undercurrents never stopped.

That night, the chief censor Lai Junchen wrote a letter to the Empress of the Heavenly Queen, saying that there was conclusive evidence that Prime Minister Cen Changqian intended to rebel, and wanted to be unfavorable to the Empress of the Heavenly Queen, and had already raised dead soldiers at home and prepared to raise troops at any time!

Wu Zetian ordered him to arrest Cen Changqian and put Cen Changqian into a marble prison, and Lai Junchen was responsible for handling the case.

After Cen Changqian, Zhou Xing wrote a letter to report Su Liangsi's rebellion and also cited evidence. Wu Zetian ordered Su Liangsi to be imprisoned. Then the next day he issued an order to demote Su Liangsi as the governor of Lizhou, Jiannan Road. The dignified prime minister was driven out of the capital of Shen and went to the distant Bashu area to handle the work.

Then, Fan Binglu and Pei Judao were demoted together. Then, Wu Zetian issued an order to summon Ge Yuanfu, Li Jiao and Yao Yu as prime ministers, among which Yao Yu was appointed as Na Yan (Shizhong), Ge Yuanfu and Li Jiao awarded Ping's third rank Pingzhang...

Wu Zetian took action very quickly, and she took action decisively and sharply. Cen Changqian was seeking death, which was nothing to say. Wu Zetian must have surgery on him, because Wu Zetian would never tolerate Cen Changqian challenging her majesty.

Although Su Liangsi, Fan Binglu and others did not openly oppose Wu Zetian, they still did not express their attitude. The time for Wu Zetian to show off last showdown had passed, and they lost the opportunity. Wu Zetian did not hesitate to kill them and eliminate the final unstable factors.

In comparison, Li Zhaode escaped, thanks to the critical moment when he finally pulled off the fig leaf and agreed to save the country with Di Renjie and support Li Tang.

Wu Zetian seeks common ground while reserving differences. She can use any person who does not oppose her. As long as the person who opposes her, no matter how talented she is, Wu Zetian will definitely not hesitate to destroy it. This is the domineering and power of a generation of queens.

The prime minister's purge was not over yet. Cen Changqian only tried for three days in Dali Temple. Lai Junchen reported that Cen Changqian's rebellion was true. Wu Zetian ordered him to be executed and the Cen family was confiscated. The man was sent to Lingnan Road, Jiannan Road and all the women were confiscated into Yeyouting.

The Cen family, which had two prime ministers, was completely declining at this point, and the surnames were erased from the big family!

Such news spread to God, and God was shocked, and some were ready to move. The forces who wanted to take action lowered their heads. Wu Zetian's ruthless blood made countless people frightened.

Among all the purges, Wu Zetian also had a special purpose that was hotly discussed by God, that is, Wu Zetian gave Yue Feng a salary of 200 dan and 600 acres of land. After this purpose, God was in an uproar.

Because in the bureaucratic system of the Tang Dynasty, there was never an official like Cujulang. What rank was Cujulang? Judging from the salary of 200 dan and the job of 600 acres, this is the salary of a fifth-rank official! Could it be Cujulang a fifth-rank official?

For a moment, the Shendu was hotly discussed and there were many different opinions. The fact that Yue Feng made a contribution and the Queen of Heaven personally taught the official position spread throughout the Shendu again. At this time, everyone in the court and the country knew that Yue Silang was not simple. This person was a top celebrity under Wu Zetian!

Yue Feng's reputation became so great that the gates on the banks of the Luoshui River were no longer limited to Wang Qi, Qiangzi and other brothers. The so-called poor in the downtown area is no one to ask about, and wealth in the deep mountains has distant relatives. Yue Feng's current status is rising, like a fish in water. Everyone shows their kindness to him, and the monsters and gods who want to make friends or even curry favor with him come to him.
