Chapter 545

While Xue Shao fainted, Princess Taiping almost fainted!

Wu Zetian hurriedly called on the palace maids and eunuchs around her, and quickly carried the person to the side hall to invite the imperial doctor to treat him.

The respected King Huo Li Yuangui lay on the emperor's body and cried in tears. Prince Li Xian and Prince Li Dan beat their chests and stamped their feet almost to seek death. The princess and the imperial concubines were crying very enthusiastically. The princess and the princess were carried to rescue by the imperial doctor... After the emperor's death, all the pressure seemed to be overwhelming on Wu Zetian, who had just died, and even made her cry without even time.

At the first time, Wu Zetian ordered General Wu Yougui, the Thousand Cavalry General, to lead his confidant guards to the bedroom to protect the palace, strictly guard against the guards, and not to enter and exit at will, and no one should miss any information, otherwise he would be punished for ten evil crimes. Then, he quickly advised King Huo, the prince and others not to cry. The two major events of the emperor's death and the assassination of the military commander were born at the same time, and the danger of the current situation was no secret. At this extraordinary period, no matter what was under the ban, it should be spread outside the public to avoid causing political turmoil and panic, and it is also necessary to prevent the traitor from taking advantage of the chaos!

The queen said it was reasonable, but the old Taoist Li Yuangui was so polite that he could not help crying. Li Xian and Li Dan cried so hard that they couldn't help themselves. Wu Zetian was angry and really wanted to knock them out, but later their wife persuaded them.

Pei Yan, the minister of Guru who had just been entrusted with the orphan, knelt down and cried for a while to show his loyalty, and finally stood up to help Wu Zetian share the matter. He and Wu Zetian discussed verbally and decided to convene the prime minister and the important ministers to discuss the funeral at the cabinet meeting overnight. However, the news of His Majesty's death must be announced to the public at least three days later. During these three days, the prime ministers need to arrange everything for His Majesty's mourning, read out the will and the new king's succession.

These things are simple, but not easy to do. A little thing will cause irreversible harm to the entire Tang Dynasty!

There is another very important thing. It is necessary to find out the murderer and the envoy behind the scenes of the assassination of General Xue Shao within three days, and to eliminate them all. In order to ensure the absolute safety of the royal family and courtiers during this extraordinary period after His Majesty’s death and the new king ascends the throne!

The plan was decided, and Pei Yan quickly went to the Political Affairs Hall to summon all the prime ministers to discuss matters urgently. Soon all the prime ministers were summoned to the palace and from then on, they stayed at the government office all night and waited for the order until the ban was lifted.

Soon, General Cheng Wuting, the Yulin Guard, took on a heavy burden. He was ordered to command all the troops of the Yulin Guard, Jinwu Guard and the Guard, guarded all the confidential places in the entire imperial city and took over the defense and patrol of the entire Luoyang city. Luoyang City began comprehensive martial law.

Dali Temple Chief Di Renjie was ordered to start full responsibility for investigating the assassination of General Xue Shao. The case was solved within three days, otherwise he, the Dali Temple Chief, would have done his best, and even his subordinates and his direct superiors would be implicated.

Wu Zetian sent Guo An and the envoys from the palace to return to the Luoshui camp, and sent orders to Xue Shao's deputy Li Duozuo and Xue Chuyu, asking Xue Chuyu to lead 200 confidant guards into the palace to personally guard Xue Shao's bed, and was responsible for communicating military orders between Xue Shao and the army. He also ordered Li Duozuo to lead the field army of Luoshui camp to rise up and move to Luoyang City and garrison ten miles away, and manage all fortress passages, guard and defend the entire Luoyang city!

The entire eastern capital Luoyang city seemed to have changed between **.

In a critical moment, the state machinery of the Tang Dynasty started to run rapidly. Wu Zetian and Wu Zetian received more than 50 times of thirty-two central palace edicts. Pei Yan led all the prime ministers to work in Tongxiao Dadan, the political affairs hall, and handled countless military and political affairs and issued hundreds of military and political orders. The paper used up to thirty kilograms!

At this time, Xue Shao, who should have been very nervous and busy, was quietly lying on the sickbed, and the imperial doctor was treating him urgently. Princess Taiping, who had just lost her father, almost fainted when she saw her husband suffer from this misfortune again. She was anxious and stood beside the sickbed, and although she had not cried, she continued to cry.

Linlang and Yang Sixu kept comforting Princess Taiping. Wu Ming led the scouts to guard the inside and outside, just like the Vajra descending to earth and full of power.

Compared with the busyness of the entire palace, Xue Shao was in an extremely quiet place.

Prince Li Xian, who should have stood up to control the overall situation, watched the queen and Pei Yan control all political affairs without being moved, but just kept silent in front of his father's body and were sad and crying bitterly. The Crown Princess Wei was anxious and wanted to stand up for some affairs on behalf of the Crown Prince. But in front of her was the capable and powerful mother-in-law Wu Zetian. Let's not talk about the Crown Princess who had no status to fight for power from Wu Zetian. Even if there was, whenever Princess Wei saw Wu Zetian, he would be like a mouse and a cat. Not to mention that he had to raise his courage to provoke her, he would still not be anxious to escape.

Therefore, Princess Wei could only be anxious. The more she was anxious, the more she resented her husband, who was too cowardly and useless, and was even worse than a woman!

Her husband was confused and ignored the matter, but Princess Wei had to plan for the future. She thought to herself that the emperor's death was given up and the prince was about to ascend the throne to the emperor. At this time, he stood up to take over all the power in the court with justification. He was just a woman who cried in front of the spirit of the previous emperor, watching the queen and Pei Yan join hands to control the entire court and army. The prince was so incompetent and weak, even if he successfully took over the throne and became the emperor in a while, would there be a capable confidant in the court who was loyal to the death? It was just a puppet emperor who was firmly controlled by the queen and Pei Yan!

The more Princess Wei thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She naturally thought of taking over a few important officials in the court as the new king. After thinking about it, all the people in the court who had some power seemed to be the confidants of the queen and Pei Yan. Even if there were a few who had been loyal to His Majesty before, the prince had no friendship with them.

In other words, Crown Prince Li Xian has never established any kindness and power in the court of the Tang Dynasty, nor has he any popularity.

All the civil and military officials in the court were loyal to the late emperor but were not willing to be loyal to the new emperor. The ministers who were ministers most understood the truth that the emperor had one day and another were the ministers. However, even if the ministers in the court did not have a deep friendship with her, they were at least very familiar with each other for many years. In addition, the queen of the emperor was so skillful that they would win people's hearts. In comparison, the ministers seemed to be more likely to be loyal to the queen of the emperor!

The more Princess Wei thought about it, the worse it became. She almost counted the ministers' heads. Finally, she found that the only ones they could find a little hope were still Princess Taiping and Prince Consort Xue Shao!

"Crown Prince, Prince!" Prince Wei couldn't help but exhort Li Xian in the crying voice, "Mr. Xue was assassinated and Princess Taiping, who was pregnant with Liujia, was also very frightened. At this time, the two of them were ill. As brothers, you should go over to take care of your sister. As the new king who is about to ascend the throne, you should also visit your military minister!"

"My father died, my heart was in a mess! Don't bother me with all the idle things!" Li Xian was still very angry and scolded Princess Wei for being scattered, and then continued to pounce on Li Zhi's body and cried bitterly.

Princess Wei hated her and wanted to beat him up. She sighed helplessly and walked away without saying a word.

"Where are you going?" Li Xian shouted to Princess Wei's background.

"Change clothes!" Princess Wei replied angrily and walked away angrily.

Coincidentally, Wu Zetian happened to come back from outside the hall and took this scene into his eyes.

When Li Xian saw Wu Zetian, he rushed to Li Zhi's body and cried even harder. It seemed that only in this way could he express enough filial piety and that he could successfully ascend the throne.

Wu Zetian looked coldly at Wei Xianger who disappeared at the corner of the palace, then looked at Li Xian who was crying with his head, shook his head and sighed.

...

It's dawn.

The people of Luoyang were surprised to find that the atmosphere in the entire city became extraordinary. The streets were full of Dutch Eredivisie soldiers patrolling, even if the Lifang trail that only allowed one person to pass was guarded by, they were still searching for "Tianzhu fugitives" from house to house. All the city gates were closed, only allowed to enter and not leave; all ships were allowed to leave the port, even the official ships on business trips were not allowed to do so.

When Xue Chuyu and his team of two hundred cavalry were ordered to enter the city, they attracted great attention. Some people recognized them as the right guards in the Luoshui camp outside the city, because their military flags and armor were different from those in the city. The weapons they held were not the kind of paint guns used by ordinary patrol soldiers, but only the elite Yue cavalry in the field king's army would use - horse spear!

More importantly, Xue Chuyu and others were just a few hundred cavalry, but they were as majestic as thousands of horses. Two hundred horse spears were thrust out in a straight line, and they were already swept across the army. Even the patrol guards hurriedly let the road back when they saw them, just like a group of domestic dogs who saw the real wolf pack, were overshadowed and at a loss!

A moment later, Xue Chuyu and his group rushed to the front of Zhenguan Hall like a gust of wind, lined up iron armor, and set up a large iron barrel array outside Xue Shao's ward. Then, without giving face at all, they bombed all the thousands of cavalry guarding here in advance.

The Crown Princess Wei Xianger was about to enter the ward to visit her, but encountered such a situation, so she had to stamp her feet and turn back.

The imperial doctor had finished seeing Xue Shao's injuries, saying that fortunately, someone who knew the doctor had first aided him, the princess Shi was fine, and then went down to boil the medicine. Only Princess Taiping and Linlang were left in the room.

Xue Chuyu stepped forward alone, stood outside the door of the ward and bowed, "General, Xue Chuyu, his subordinate, led two hundred guards into the palace under the order of the central palace, and obeyed the command of the general to act in charge!"

Princess Taiping quickly sent Lin'er to reply. Lin'er walked to the door and said, "General Xue is here to protect him, but please don't make noise. The prince consort is resting on the couch, don't disturb him!"

As soon as Lin'er finished speaking, Xue Shao, who had been fainting, suddenly woke up.

His eyes were bright and bright!
