Chapter seven hundred and fifty fifth self-inflicted humiliation
"That witch wants to cooperate with us?" Chu Suiliang smiled contemptuously.
Changsun Wuji smiled and nodded: "Yes, the people in the palace had already told the news yesterday. The people in the palace could say it so clearly that they didn't need to guess that it was the witch who deliberately released the wind.
It means that I want to deal with King Qi Li You with us."
"Why do we have to deal with King Qi Li You?" Chu Suiliang tilted his head and looked at Changsun Wuji on the side: "We have no grudges with King Qi, at most we have different political views.
No matter what, the King of Qi's surname is Li, and he is a member of the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. Even if we die at the hands of the King of Qi, we will do our best for the Tang Dynasty. It's just that the King of Qi and His Majesty do not understand.
But if we cooperate with that witch, what will we become?
The Tang Dynasty sinner who helped the evildoer, hum... I, Chu Suiliang, don't want to be a Tang Dynasty sinner. The witch is really a fool."
Although Chu Suiliang loves the rights in his hands, he loves rights because he is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and caring for the people of the Tang Dynasty. Although Li You stood in front of Chu Suiliang, Chu Suiliang did not think that Li You was his opponent. Chu Suiliang was still loyal to the Li family of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Wu Zetian and Chu Suiliang never looked down on this person. He could only hear the word "demon" in Chu Suiliang's mouth.
After Li Zhi decided to abolish Empress Wang and make Wu Zetian the queen, Chu Suiliang and Li Zhi had a big quarrel twice. Since ancient times, the deposed queen has been a joke that the world has ridiculed, and it will affect the reputation of the royal family. Li Zhi summoned Changsun Wuji, Li Ji, and Chu Suiliang to discuss the issue of the decree of the queen. Zhu Suiliang came up and told Gaozong Li Zhi that he was even very angry, and he took off his official hat and kowtowed and kept bleeding. This made Li Zhi very embarrassed, so he asked the guards to pull Zhu Suiliang out.
This also made Wu Zetian next to Li Zhi see it and angry in his heart, wishing to cut Zhu Suiliang into pieces immediately, provoking Wu Zetian, the future queen, and also bought the disaster for Zhu Suiliang's tragic fate.
At that time, although there was a lot of criticism in the court, and many people opposed Emperor Gaozong's abolishment of Queen Wang and the establishment of another queen, the most intense one was Chu Suiliang, who even took the official position to force Li Zhi not to abolish the queen. Changsun Wuji might have selfish intentions in this matter, that is, Queen Wang was his own person, but Chu Suiliang had only one thought in this matter, that is, he must not let Wu Zetian become the queen.
Changsun Wuji gave the first reason why he could not depose Wang Liwu, that is, Empress Wang was not at fault... But Chu Suiliang gave the second reason, that Wu Zetian had major ethical flaws in not being able to be the queen.
Because Wu Zetian was once a talented person of Emperor Taizong of Tang and the concubine's mother of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Emperor Gaozong of Tang made Wu Zetian the queen a mess of his generation.
The first reason is fine, but the second reason is that it really hurts Wu Zetian and Li Zhi deeply. Chu Suiliang is like this. His loyalty to the Tang Dynasty also made this guy fearless.
Changsun Wuji looked at Chu Suiliang's total disdain at this time, and nodded with a smile: "I knew Deng Shan would say this, but I also said that Wu Zetian also brought us a message in order to release goodwill to us, that is, the King of Qi and others were about to attack you. It is said that Li You wanted to be the title of Minister of Personnel...!"
"Hiss...really?" Chu Suiliang asked: "Gei Master, what do they want my title of Minister of Personnel to do?"
"Maybe we need to cultivate our own power... It is said that Li You has decided to expand the imperial examination, reform the imperial examination system, and create a system of confusing names and palace examinations...!" Changsun Wuji shook his head slightly.
However, at this time, Chu Suiliang's eyes lit up: "Ge Master, I think this proposal seems to be quite good. Our imperial examination system is about to be reformed. In fact, I don't want to say that the current imperial examination system has too many cheats. A large group of princes and children took poems from some unknown places and invested in front of one senior official after another.
The other party will support the other party due to feelings or benefits, so that our imperial examinations will become a joyful place for many princes and nobles, which is wrong.”
"Oh...! Deng Shan, this is indeed a problem... Those people are indeed the same as you said, but the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel must be in our hands. After all, no one knows whether Li You and his so-called reform of the imperial examination will be successful, so the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel must not be allowed."
"What the Ge Lao said is that even if they reformed the imperial examination system, it is better to put the right to choose officials on ourselves. I wonder what method would Li You and the others use to remove the position of Minister of Personnel on me?" Chu Suiliang looked at Changsun Wuji and asked.
Changsun Wuji shook his head: "It's unknown. The witch woman deliberately kept half of her words. The one who later wanted us to compromise and then told me that this witch woman died like this, and she has always been tricky."
"He wants to form an alliance, but he just wants you to support her as the queen."
"The witch woman dreams that a witch woman like her, I really want to kill her with one sword, and will never support her to become the queen. Not only that, if Li You is willing to join forces with me to manage that witch woman, I have no choice but to define it." Changsun Wuji also expressed his attitude.
In fact, Wu Zetian took it for granted at the beginning. Indeed, Wu Zetian himself believed that there were no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, and only eternal interests. However, Wu Zetian would not have thought about what kind of feelings did Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang feel about him.
In the hearts of Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, Wu Zetian is a demon woman. What is a demon woman? It is a person who can be punished by everyone. For such a person, Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, two self-proclaimed noble people, will never work together no matter what.
So Wu Zetian overestimated himself and underestimated the determination of Chu Suiliang and Changsun Wuji. Wu Zetian thought that as long as he wanted to save him, he could get an alliance, which was Wu Zetian's wishful thinking.
Soon, Changsun Wuji will make Wu Zetian look good.
That night, Changsun Wuji left Chu Suiliang's house. Then the next day, a news came out in the palace that Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were going to Changsun Wuji's residence to have fun together.
As soon as this news came out, it was first delivered to Li You. To be honest, the person who sent the news was very worried, worried that Wu Zetian and Changsun Wuji would hook up, but after Li You saw the news, he just smiled faintly, and then Li You said confidently: "This is to bring shame on yourself!"
