Chapter 144: See the picture

"Huairou, where is King Shou?" The group walked out of the hall, and Concubine Wu Hui asked Gao Mang in a low voice.

"Concubine Hui is at ease, and King Shou is safe." Gao Mang replied softly.

Concubine Wu Hui was relieved. She had learned that Gao Mang had sent Tianxingzhe to protect her daughter Princess Xianyi, but there was no news from the Shengshan Temple, which made her unable to sleep or eat.

King Shou is her future and the foundation of all her tolerance and preparation. If something happens to King Shou, what is the meaning of everything she does?

Concubine Hui made up her mind and after this storm passed, she must repay the little immortal master.

Outside the gate of the Changsheng Hall, Chen Xuanli lined up with the imperial guards, and the swords and guns were shining coldly, and Leng Ran formed a confrontation with the rebels under the steps.

Emperor Li Longji and his party strode forward and stood in front of the door. Li Longji looked at the mysterious old man under the steps with a calm expression.

The old man was wearing a black hooded cloak covered with leather armor, and his body was wet, obviously soaked in blood.

The old man's face was hidden under the deep cloak, and only a pair of sinister eyes looked at the emperor Li Longji on the steps.

Li Longji looked at each other with his eyes, his mind was slightly touched, and countless old friends' figures floated past his mind, as if each was an old man under the steps, and as if each was not.

Li Longji felt restless and couldn't help but say coldly: "Who are you?"

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Mr. Qi didn't say anything, but burst into a series of shocking laughter.

"who I am?"

Mr. Qi laughed out of tears, and he raised his head to stare at Li Longji on the steps, and said word by word, "Empress, the destiny of heaven is unlucky, and it is not pure. If you have the heart of a general, you cannot inherit the ancestral temple. Your mother will be in charge of the world. He will be a commoner!"

Li Longji was shocked, and Concubine Wu Hui looked pale and shaking.

What the old man below the ranks said was the edict of Emperor Xuanzong to depose Queen Wang and ten years ago!

Old Qi reached out and slowly took off the cloak from his head, revealing an old face covered with tears, and wrote a twisted face full of hatred, humiliation, pleasure, and unconcealed sorrow.

Li Longji said in a lost voice: "Shouyi?!"

Gao Mang, who was standing beside the emperor, sighed inwardly. He finally knew who the rebellious old man was, Queen Wang's twin brother, Emperor Xuanzong's elder brother-in-law, and the emperor's brother-in-law, the prince Shaobao, Duke Qi, and Wang Shouyi!

As early as when Emperor Xuanzong was the King of Linzi, Wang Shouyi was a friend of the emperor's residence, so much that he wanted to wear a pair of pants.

Li Longji was able to ascend the throne in the end, which was inseparable from the strong support of the Wang clan. Li Longji was placed under house arrest by Wu Zetian in the deep palace. On his birthday, Empress Wang and Wang Shouyi's father Wang Renjiao risked being beheaded and secretly ran out of the palace to exchange a leather jacket for flour, and made a bowl of longevity noodles for Li Longji.

After experiencing the struggles of hardships and life and death, Li Longji finally ascended the throne with the help of everyone. He enthroned the Wang family as the queen, and married his sister to Wang Shouyi, and kinship with her.

However, when Li Longji settled on the throne, he gradually alienated the Queen Wang and concentrated all his favor on Concubine Wu Hui. In addition, the Queen Wang had not given birth to a son for a long time, which was even more disliked by the Emperor.

Ten years ago, Empress Wang felt that the throne was not guaranteed, so she turned to his brother Wang Shouyi. Wang Shouyi secretly invited the monk to Mingxu to approve the order for the queen, and also engraved the names of the heaven and earth texts and Emperor Xuanzong on a piece of thunderwood, so that Empress Wang could wear it on her body so that she could give birth to a noble son early.

However, the palace has always been prohibited from winning, and Queen Wang's actions have long been seen by Concubine Wu Hui, so she secretly reported to the emperor.

The emperor indeed found Pilimu from Empress Wang, and was furious and demoted Empress Wang to a commoner and deposed the position of Empress. Three months later, Empress Wang died of serious illness.

The Fu Yan incident also brought great disaster to the Wang family. Countless people were either killed or demoted, and Queen Wang’s brother Wang Shouyi was also sentenced to death by the emperor in Lantian Post.

It is unknown how Wang Shouyi escaped this disaster, but today he came and came with a revenge with a lot of hatred.

Gao Mang looked at Wang Shouyi under the steps, and many of the doubts in his heart were solved and suddenly enlightened.

He has always been wondering that Prince Li Ying has not had much influence in the palace. It is extremely difficult to achieve deep penetration and even launch a coup, and he cannot pass the level of Wu Huifei.

But it was different with Wang Shouyi's assistance. Queen Wang was famous in the harem at that time, and countless people had received her favor. Queen Wang had only been dead for ten years. It was not difficult to find some old men from the court who had received her favor.

Another thing is that Prince Li Ying was placed under house arrest in the East Palace all year round, and it was only this year for the reign of the country. How can he control and grasp the inside and outside the court?

But Wang Shouyi is different. He and Emperor Xuanzong were friends since he was a teenager and accompanied the emperor through ups and downs, with him in big and small matters. After Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne, Wang Shouyi was entrusted with important tasks and was one of the core personnel around the emperor.

In addition to the identity of Wang Shouyi's relatives, his experience, connections, and the secrets of the court he possessed were probably even comparable to Zhang Jiuling, the chief prime minister.

With such a person helping him, Prince Li Ying would not succeed without rebellion!

Gao Mang couldn't help but admire Wang Shouyi a little. This old man was so powerful that he would make the Tang Dynasty difficult for his own efforts alone.

In fact, Wang Shou is not a year old, at most he is in his forties. But no matter who carries hatred and desires for revenge, he will become old after ten years of hard work.

When Wang Shouyi and the prince’s plan came to this point, the truth was revealed or the picture was revealed.

The Yin soldiers outside the city and the mobs inside the city were all trying to cooperate with this coup.

Wang Shouyi and his rebels fought from Xuanwu Gate to the Hall of Eternal Life in order to control Emperor Xuanzong, and this was almost a replica of the Xuanwu Gate Incident that year.

Of course, if Wang Shouyi fails, it doesn’t matter, as well as Prince Li Ying.

Once Wang Shouyi's rebels were suppressed, Prince Li Ying would lead a large army to "rescue the rebels", pretending to clean up the rebels, but in fact they would still put the emperor under house arrest and force the emperor to hand over power.

In this way, the prince not only gained a good reputation for saving the emperor, but also successfully obtained the imperial seal of the emperor he had always dreamed of.

It’s a pity that ideals are full and reality is skinny.

The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind. Concubine Wu endured it for so long, allowing all kinds of shit to be stolen on her head and allowing her confidants to be persecuted. Isn’t it just to wait for this moment?

Now that she has come to the Hall of Eternity and stands beside the emperor, it means that she has already made arrangements, so how could she get the prince to fulfill her wish?

Sure enough, when the two sides confronted each other, a shocking shout of killing suddenly came from the direction of Xuanwu Gate.
