Chapter 369: Hope is in this case, Li family has hope
The grand court meeting was held in a joyful atmosphere, and after a brief unpleasantness in the middle, it ended in a joyful atmosphere again.
Wu Zetian, with a relaxed look on her face, returned to Ganlu Palace accompanied by a group of female officials.
The three leading officials of this dynasty stood together, still discussing what Wu Zetian had just said.
A group of officials who were loyal to the Li family gathered together and praised Li Cunxi's trip to Jiangzhou as a miracle from heaven. They even overturned the case of Li Ai, Duke of Huang, which happened eleven years ago.
Wu Yizong and several members of the Wu family also gathered together, and their words were full of praise for Li Cunxi, and from time to time they showed their envy of Li Ai and Wu Chengsi.
Li Cunxi achieved his biggest goal during his trip to Jiangzhou. Whether he would be promoted or not depended on whether Wu Zetian wanted to promote him. However, Wu Yanhao's promotion was a foregone conclusion, but it was not known to which position he would be promoted.
When they thought about the lucky Wu Chengsi who was already the head of all officials, they didn't feel too envious. But when they saw that Wu Chengsi's son was going to be promoted again, they felt extremely jealous.
We are all fathers of sons, so why is your family so awesome and everyone is trying to move up the ladder?
When Wu Yizong thought of his son who often went to brothels, he sighed heavily.
"Looking back, I still have to get in touch with Li Shaoyin. With my current status in the court, if I want to promote my useless son, I'm afraid I'll be attacked to death by Sansi's followers."
"At least you can find a good future for your son through the inheritance line. The rest of us can only follow behind you and eat dust."
Several members of the Wu family chatted as they walked and soon left the Linde Hall.
Di Renjie in the hall naturally took in all the comments from these people, wiped away the tears that had welled up in his eyes, and said with emotion:
"Cunxi can finally influence the political situation on his own."
"This child has completely grown up."
"If Duke Huang knew about this, he would be proud of this child."
Li Huaiyuan was also very sad, but he immediately thought of how much benefit Li Cunxi's energy would bring to the Li family's descendants, so he laughed.
"If this is the case, the Li family will have hope."
"In the near future, our Li Tang dynasty will return to the hands of the Li family."
Zhang Jianzhi happily raised the tablet he had just used to record his work, squinted his eyes and said:
"You two have time to be sad here. Why don't you accompany me to the Menxia Province and see if there are any mistakes in what I wrote?"
Di Renjie instantly perked up, and together with Li Huaiyuan, he accompanied Zhang Jianzhi to the Menxia Province.
Imperial Censor Zong Qinke, supported by his younger brother Zong Chuke, walked out step by step. They looked at the rising sun and smiled at the same time.
"Brother, didn't Li Shaoyin say that the festival that year was over? Otherwise, why don't we brothers choose a path as well?"
"No, not yet. The so-called standing in line means standing well and exerting the most energy. We haven't exerted anything, how can we have a good time as brothers?"
"Brother, what do you mean?"
"Let's go back to the mansion. You and I will discuss this slowly." Zong Qinke had just taken two steps when he remembered something and reminded him, "I have something else to tell you. Be careful when accepting bribes in the future. You should know what you should and shouldn't accept. You have been an official for so many years, you don't need me to remind you. Don't cause trouble."
"Don't worry, I have already sent away the people from the Turkic war faction who came to me secretly. It's not like I don't understand everything."
"It's good to know. There's still a lot of time left. You and I may be able to make another leap forward."
In Ganlu Palace, Wu Zetian had her back to the palace door.
The sunlight could not reach her position, which made her frown as she did not like the cold weather in late autumn. She turned to look at the man in black linen clothes standing in the sunlight.
The man half lowered his head and saluted Wu Zetian.
"You haven't come back for half a year. What news did you bring back to me this time?" Wu Zetian walked into the sunlight and asked lightly.
"Your Majesty, what I brought back is not news. Strictly speaking, it should be considered a 'confirmation'," said the man.
"Tell me about it?"
"A few nights ago, I was in Wuping County, Jiangzhou, and saw a very interesting scene."
"Oh?"
"The subordinates of Liang Wang Wu Sansi secretly kidnapped the prisoner Zhao Fucai. Oh, yes, the name known to the world should be Pingnan Hou Xue Qinglin. He pretended to be Xue Qinglin and went to the capital to frame Huang Guogong."
"I know this, let's talk about something else."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The man bowed his head respectfully. "That night, the rescue team sent by Liang Wang Wu Sansi did rescue people from the prison in Wuping County. However, when they ran to the riverside, they were stopped by the inner guards."
"and then?"
"After the battle, one of the men sent by King Liang escaped, and before leaving, he killed Zhao Fucai with a hidden weapon." The man bowed again, "This is the 'confirmation' I brought to your majesty. I wonder if it can be of any use to your majesty?"
"He is very useful. Whenever I think of that evil creature Wu Sansi, I feel uncomfortable all over. If I didn't need him, I would really like to cut off his head and feed it to the dogs."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Calm down? What can you do to calm down? Wu Sansi's head?"
Wu Zetian's anger grew stronger and stronger, and she wished she could kill that evil creature Wu Sansi with one punch.
If she had any doubts about the authenticity of the document before, now Wu Zetian had no doubts about Li Cunxi at all.
The man below was someone she would never suspect, even if someone said that he was planning a rebellion.
Wu Zetian would never believe that anything confirmed by this man was false.
In this case, we should now discuss how to deal with that bastard Wu Sansi.
She punished a minister of the Ministry of Personnel in the court. That man was actually a disciple of Wu Sansi, and one of the better ones among Wu Sansi's disciples.
Wu Sansi felt heartbroken for a long time after this guy was killed.
But that's not enough.
She felt unhappy when she thought that Wu Sansi was determined to ruin her plan.
"Guinian, how do you think I should deal with this evil Wu Sansi?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know, and I dare not say. Your Majesty should ask the heir of the Li family or the head of the inner guard office about this matter."
"You really don't dare to say it. Your grandfather has taught you this. What do you dare to say?"
"I...I don't like these. I want to be a down-to-earth music official. I want to do what I like to do."
"Do you think you still have a chance to step down? After the gathering at Yufeng Pavilion, you were the one who told me that Li Cunxi was not a simple person."
"minister……"
The man was speechless, but he really had said it so casually back then.
Who knew that after that incident, Wu Zetian forced him to become an evil creature who could never leave the organization.
"Your Majesty... please let me go. I don't want to do this anymore."
