After Shangguan Wan'er completed the plan for Li Anding, she hurriedly left because Wu Zetian was still waiting for her news. At the same time, Xu Jingyi came to thirty miles east of the city.

This is the place where Ye Zhengtao and others took Ang Lee after he accused him of Ang Lee.

And here, Xu Jingyi really found people, a total of about twenty people. After seeing these people, Xu Jingyi took the Meihua Guard to kill them without saying a word, and ended up killing them all.

Then Xu Jingyi took these people to the Wanxiang Palace to report his life.

Fortunately, Xu Jingyi caught someone this time. If he couldn't catch someone, then Xu Jingyi would be miserable.

Night is coming... Ang Lee sat on a chair in the room, kneeling in front of him, five people were kneeling in front of him. They were the five-man group of the southwest border army that assassinated Ang Lee this time, Ye Zhengtao, Su Jiu, Cheng Lei, Qiu Wu, and Nian Thirteen.

Among them, Su Jiu was caught in the evening. You should know that Ang Lee's sixth uncle Le Jinnan is the best at chasing... As long as he takes action, no one can escape.

There was also a fight with Su Jiu. Fortunately, there were many people on Ang Lee's side, so there were no major casualties.

Su Jiu was only deprived of his arm. Later, after Su Jiu was arrested, he came to Zhenjia Village and realized the situation he was in now. At this time, Su Jiu also agreed with the ideas of his brothers and knelt in front of Ang Lee together.

Looking at the five brothers kneeling in front of him, Ang Lee waved his hand and said, "You all get up. Speaking of which, you are all heroes, and I'm sorry to you.

Back then, you fought bloody battles for the Tang Dynasty, and all your comrades were killed. I, Datang, didn’t even have any pensions. You all depended on you as killers to subsidize them. Ang Lee felt deeply uneasy."

"This matter has nothing to do with Your Highness...!"

After Ang Lee finished speaking, Ye Zhengtao on the side said: "It is the mission of our soldiers for the Tang Dynasty to desire blood. The Tang Dynasty just forgot about us for the time being, and we have no complaints."

Ye Zhengtao's words made An An shook his head slightly and said, "You have shed blood for the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has made you cry. I want to apologize to you... This time you assassinated me.

And you don’t need to take any assassination missions in the future. You will be my Ang Lee’s guards in the future, protecting my safety.”

"I wish to die for Your Highness." Five people in the southwest knelt down and expressed their loyalty.

"Okay..." Ang Lee nodded and smiled, "The first task I gave you is to pick up the heroes' widows and relatives to Zhenjia Village overnight... I said, I want to give them a stable future.

We teach those heroic children to read and read... to make them pillars of the Great Zhou."

After Ang Lee said that, Ye Zhengtao and the other two were crying. The first time none of them felt that the burden on them was gone, and they could be a person with peace of mind. You have not had any pressure, and you will never know the feeling of being under a huge burden in your heart.

The widows and relatives of his brother had more than a thousand mouths. As long as the five of them relaxed a little, there would be people who starved to death and a child of a comrade-in-arms to death. That would be a sharp knife to the five of them.

It was a very tormenting feeling. Now someone finally took over. Once you relax, it was unprecedentedly relaxed.

But the five people didn't know that Ang Lee didn't believe them as much as they seemed to be on the surface... Ang Lee asked them to pick them up overnight, but in fact, it was just a precaution against them. You should know that three of the five people are injured, Ang Lee could actually leave them for one night.

However, there were too many uncertain factors that night. Although Ang Lee was willing to believe Zhang Hu, Ang Lee did not dare to believe too much in the five Southwest Army. What they said was true or false, and Ang Lee was difficult to judge.

But if these border troops can really bring the widows and relatives of their comrades-in-arms, then the credibility will be great. If they are killing for their comrades-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in-arms-in

Then Ang Lee can trust them.

So Ang Lee asked them to go back and bring people. Ang Lee is not afraid of too many people now, but only afraid of too few people. The industry of Monkey Wine and Soap will be launched soon, and the more people the better.

That night, although three of the five people in the southwest were injured, they still set out on the way back. According to Ye Zhengtao's estimate, in seven days, they would bring about a thousand people to Zhenjia Village, hoping that Ang Lee and others could do a good job in reception.

Ang Lee agreed immediately and sent the five people away.

There was nothing to say overnight... After Ang Lee got these things done, he started to sleep, but in the Wanxiang Palace, Lai Junchen, Wan Guojun and Xu Jingyi stood in front of Mingtang in turn.

Wu Zetian sat on the dragon throne, and Shangguan Wan'er was serving him.

Wu Zetian threw the above watch on the table and said, "Say...what has been found out? Who are these people who bought evil spirits to assassinate Zhen An'er?"

"Report to Your Majesty..." Lai Junchen bowed and said, "After the interrogation of the Magistrate, these people are members of the Lotus Sect. This time they did not want to assassinate Your Highness An, but more wanted to abduct Your Highness An."

"Are you sure it's the Lotus Sect, not someone else?" Wu Zetian looked at Lai Junchen with some suspicion and asked.

Lai Junchen, who was on the side, hurriedly said: "Confirm...very sure, it is the Lotus Sect, and it has nothing to do with others. Moreover, their purpose this time is to use Your Highness An to threaten His Majesty.

Because the people of the Lotus Sect knew that Your Majesty loved Your Highness An, and more importantly, they found out that there was no one around His Highness An, and there were only ten guards.

So they bribed the five killers and prepared to rob His Highness. As long as they succeed, they would use His Highness's life as a threat to His Highness and take a lot of money and weapons.

I can be sure that this assassination has nothing to do with other people.”

After Lai Junchen said this, Wu Zetian showed his moderate satisfaction: "Did you ask about the Lotus Sect's nest?"

"This... Please forgive me for your crime. We only caught the Luoyang branch." Lai Junchen bowed.

"What..." Wu Zetian was surprised: "Can they also have branches in other places?"

"Uh..." Lai Junchen paused and said, "According to the interrogation, this Lotus Sect should have thirteen branches in the Great Zhou Dynasty, with tens of thousands of people... and their biggest purpose is to overthrow the court, and their hearts are punished."

"Hmph...bold..." Wu Zetian shook his head slightly. She really didn't expect that under her rule, there was such an organization that wanted to subvert the imperial court.

"Lai Junchen... ordered you to thoroughly investigate the Lotus Sect, and I want to eliminate them." Wu Zetian waved his hand.

"As for the order..." Lai Junchen bowed to accept the order.

When Junchen and Wan Guojun left, Wu Zetian looked at Xu Jingyi below and said, "Xu Jingyi, do you know that you are guilty..."

With a word, you know your guilt, Xu Jingyi was so scared that she knelt down immediately: "I know my guilt...!"

"Then you know your sin, do you know that your sin is to be beheaded..." Wu Zetian asked coldly.

"Wei...Wei...Wei is willing to apologize for death." After saying that, Xu Jingyi knocked to the end.

....................................

"You still know that you want to apologize for death..." Wu Zetian snorted coldly, stood up from the dragon throne and said, "I will leave An'er's safety to you, but look at what you did. If it weren't for Lin Mohan today, then my An'er had been kidnapped at this time."

"I know the crime..." Xu Jingyi had nothing to say.

However, at this time, Shangguan Wan'er said softly: "Your Majesty... Although the leader of the Grand Pavilion is wrong, the leader of the Grand Pavilion has also made contributions. After all, this group of people from the Lotus Sect was captured by the leader of the Grand Pavilion.

So I think it would be better to pay off my merits and demerits."

But Shangguan Wan'er's words made Wu Zetian shake his head and say, "My merit is merit, and fault is a fault. You cannot compare merit and fault. Xu Jingyi listens to the order...!"

"I am here..." Xu Jingyi bowed to the ground.

"Xu Jingyi's protection of His Highness Ang Lee was unfavorable and was sentenced to death, but she found the assassination man and was rewarded for his contribution, so she removed the position of Xu Jingyi's chief clerk and demoted her to Ang Lee's personal maid...!"

After saying that, Xu Jingyi thanked her loudly and turned around and left with Wu Zetian.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er came to Xu Jingyi, helped Xu Jingyi up and smiled and said, "Congratulations to sister...!"

Xu Jingyi smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Wan'er, why are you happy?"

"Silly... Is it my sister who wants to stay in the Plum Blossom Guard for the rest of her life? Now His Majesty's golden words make you become His Highness's personal maid, which means that you can protect His Highness An intimate manner.

Your Highness An is a good person. As long as you can communicate with Your Highness, Your Highness will definitely not treat you badly.

From now on, we will become sisters... we can leave the Plum Blossom Guard and find a happy husband, although of course we are congratulating my sister."

Shangguan Wan'er's words made Xu Jingyi blink.

....................................

The news of Ang Lee being assassinated spread quickly, some sighing, some worried, and some indifferent... The Wu brothers, Xue Huaiyi, of course, sighed with regret. The Wu brothers were almost angry that they did not kill Ang Lee.

Xue Huaiyi wants to make Lin Mohan look good.

What they were worried about was Li Dan, Li Chengqi and Xue Chongxun. When these people heard that Ang Lee encountered an assassination, they wanted to come to Ang Lee as soon as possible and ask about Ang Lee's condition.

But they have their own helplessness, because when they learned the news, it was already evening, and there was a curfew in Luoyang and they couldn't get out.

As for the indifferent attitude, of course, it was Princess Taiping. During this period, Princess Taiping frequently entered the palace and discussed political affairs with her mother, Wu Zetian. It seemed that Wu Zetian believed that Princess Taiping looked and had a personality like her... Some people also said that this was a kind of comfort to Princess Taiping in disguise.

After all, Wu Zetian killed Princess Taiping's husband.

However, Wu Zetian never let Princess Taiping leak her involvement in politics. Princess Taiping was afraid of her mother, so she acted more restrainedly and only decorated her mansion and bought other businesses.

Another one is Li Longji. At this time, Li Longji was actively meeting Li Tang's old ministers. He wanted to gain the support of Li Tang's old ministers, and it would be great if he could obtain some real power.

The next morning... When Ang Lee was still in bed, what made Ang Lee happy was that Li Dan, Li Chengqi and Xue Chongxun actually came to Zhenjia Village together, and after meeting Li Dan.

Li Chengqi told Ang Lee that Li Dan was worried that Ang Lee had not been asleep all night.

"Uncle...!" Looking at Li Dan's haggard face, a warm feeling rose in Ang Lee's heart. Looking at Li Dan and Li Dan's selfless concern for him, Ang Lee sometimes really thought that Li Dan in front of him was his father.

"Why should I be so kind to me?" Ang Lee's eyes turned slightly red.

Li Dan on the side looked at Ang Lee with a smile and asked, "Then why are you so kind to your uncle again..."

After saying that, Li Dan wiped away the tears from the corner of Ang Lee's eyes and said, "We two fathers and sons should not be moved by each other, and don't ask why. As long as we believe, we will definitely be good to each other, that's enough."

"Yeah..." Ang Lee nodded seriously, then smiled and said, "Okay... Uncle was here today, so I just happened to see what Aner was going to make today."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Chongxun on the side immediately asked, "Is it soap?"

"Yes... soap and monkey wine... monkey wine, you all know, it is a wine with a higher alcohol content. Last time, Hou Ji was ordered by Xue Huaiyi to take away my monkey wine recipe.

But he didn't take it away, but he lost his life.

I gave the recipe to my grandmother, who returned it to me some time ago and said that I would allow me to brew Monkey wine, but the shipment volume must be strictly controlled because brewing Monkey wine requires a lot of food.

The alcohol formula I gave also requires a lot of food, so I must first ensure the brewing of alcohol, and the remaining amount can be brewed in the future.

I should only be able to brew the whole Zhou Dynasty, and that is the only one."

"Haha... Mother still prefers you...!" Li Dan laughed.

Li Chengqi then asked, "What is that soap..."

"Soup..." Ang Lee laughed and said, "Soup is bath beans..."

In the Tang Dynasty, there was also soap for bathing, called "bath beans". Sun Simiao's "Qianjin Yaofang" records that the pig's pancreas was washed away, and the fat was torn off and grinded into a paste. Then, bean powder, spices, etc. were added evenly, and after natural drying, it became a bath bean that could be used for washing. Later, the formula of bath beans was continuously upgraded and was almost the same as modern soap. Its effect not only had strong washing ability, but also moisturized the skin. It is a relatively high-quality detergent and was popular among the upper nobles.

Moreover, after cleaning the body, there were also skin care products for skin care in the Tang Dynasty. "Facial medicine" and "mouth fat" can be used to apply face and mouth. In Du Fu's "La Day", there is "mouth fat facial medicine follows the blessings, and the green pipes and silver poppies fall into the sky." It is said that in the palace in winter, these skin care products will be distributed to officials as the palace's year-end condolences to officials.

But you must be clear here... that... does not mean that there is... it does not mean that there is... it is very important for all people to afford it.

This was the era of Wu Zetian. The price of bath beans was very expensive, basically for the upper class nobles, as well as "face medicine" and "mouth fat"... These things basically had no communication with the people.

When people use the most clothes to wash clothes, they are wood ash and soap beans... Although these two can be dirty, they need to be beaten. How precious is it for people to make a piece of clothing.

Beating can easily cause clothes torn apart, so the people have to sew and patch them. There are many patches, and it is common for more than a dozen clothes to have them.

There are two types of soap made by Ang Lee. The first is soap. The soap is positioned as an ordinary person, and the other is soap. The soap is positioned as an upper class noble.

If soap and soap are sold well, Ang Lee will make perfume later... Ang Lee's business empire needs to use soap, soap and perfume to make the first wave of boosting.
