    After He Lan Minzhi left the Xianju Palace, Chen Yi was also called into the palace by Wu Zetian for questioning.  "Zi Ying, this is the report on Li Xian's death from illness sent urgently by Di Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. You should read it first and then tell me your opinion on this matter!" Wu Zetian handed over the urgent report submitted by Di Renjie.  He gave it to Chen Yi. After Chen Yi reached out to take it, he said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you look at it or not. Di Renjie must have told you about this situation, right?" Chen Yi took Di Renjie's report from Wu Zetian and looked at it carefully.  After reading it, he replied: "Mother, I just heard the news sent by Di Shangshu, and I don't know the details!" Don't hide such a thing from Wu Zetian, Di Renjie will definitely have news.  Tell him that this is an open secret. If he denies anything in front of Wu Zetian, it will be a shameless feeling here.  Because he knew the general situation, Chen Yi already knew most of the contents of Di Renjie's emergency report. He read it back and forth several times. After taking a clear look at all the details, he put down the emergency report, looked at Wu Zetian and said: "  Queen Mother, I feel that Di Shangshu discovered some anomalies when he was investigating the case in Fangzhou, but there is no definite evidence to prove anything, so I can only think that King Luling died of a sudden illness! In any case, if there is no direct or indirect  If the evidence proves something, you cannot make any conclusions, let alone doubt anyone unreasonably. Therefore, Di Shangshu's report can only be written like this, and there is no more meaning!" Wu Zetian had expected Chen Yi to say this.  He looked at Chen Yi with shining eyes and said, "Zi Ying, according to your guess, if you were a bystander, who do you think would attack King Luling?"  ? Who wants to get rid of him the most? Don¡¯t worry about anything. Just tell me who you think of, and I won¡¯t blame you!¡± ¡°My Lady, if it¡¯s true that you say so, who wants to let the King of Luling live the most?  In the world, my first guess is you!" "What?" Chen Yi's answer shocked Wu Zetian and looked at Chen Yi in disbelief, "Do you still think that I am here to get rid of Xian'er?  "People?" "No!" Chen Yi shook his head, "I just said that if I were asked to tell you who wanted to get rid of King Luling the most, the first person who would come to mind would be you, but I didn't say it was you. Now I am safe and sure.  This matter has nothing to do with the empress. The empress has no knowledge at all, just like the minister!" Chen Yi's words made Wu Zetian less shocked and angry, but she was very dissatisfied with Chen Yi's last superfluous words and was very angry.  Asked: "Chen Yi, why do you say this about me? Xian'er is my only living son. No matter how much I tolerate him, it is impossible to get rid of him" But when he thought about his dealings with Li Hong,  Wu Zetian couldn't speak anymore about the methods of Li Xian's two biological sons.  Chen Yi also knew what Wu Zetian was thinking of, so he did not answer the question and expressed his disapproval of Wu Zetian's previous behavior in silence.  Wu Zetian took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and asked Chen Yi again: "Chen Yi, I want to ask you again. Since you think I am the one who wants to get rid of Xian'er the most, then who wants to get rid of Xian'er the second most?"  Who could it be? Minzhi, yourself? Or someone else? " "No!" In Wu Zetian's slight surprise, Chen Yi said calmly: "Empress, if you think about it from the perspective of a bystander,  The second person who wants to get rid of the King of Luling should be the current young emperor! As long as the King of Luling is around, his throne will not be stable, so the second person who wants to get rid of the King of Luling should be him! It¡¯s just that he is too old.  Xiao, has no ability to consider these things at all, so it can be ignored!" "But the advisers around him can!" Wu Zetian's eyes flashed with a strange light, staring at Chen Yi: "As far as I know, the most heartfelt support  Li Chongrun is the emperor of those people headed by you. Can it be said that you are afraid that Xian'er will threaten Li Chongrun's throne, so you want to kill Xian'er?" Chen Yi was a little surprised by Wu Zetian's reaction so quickly.  But he still shook his head firmly and said in denial: "Empress, although what you said makes sense, your reasoning is wrong!"  The emperor's supporters include those other than Chen and his uncle Minzhi! Of course, Chen can also be said to be one of his supporters, but this does not mean that so many people who support the young emperor's accession to the throne do not want King Luling to die.  Yes! When King Luling was the emperor, he did so many unbelievable things. He even wanted to give up the world to the Wei family and refused to listen to the advice of his ministers. This made all the ministers feel cold and the Queen Mother angrily rebuked him.  His absurdity deposed him as emperor, and all the ministers clapped their hands and praised him. It can be said that even if the King of Luling is alive, he cannot threaten the position of the young emperor! The ministers will not think so!" Wu Zetian heard it.  There was something in Chen Yi's words, but she still pointed the finger back at him, implying that she was the most likely to get rid of Li Xian because?I want to be the emperor myself.  If she wants to be the emperor and control or eliminate the little emperor, then the ministers can carry Li Xian out and confront her.  But if Li Xian dies, there will be no strong person to stand up to her who wants to be the emperor! Because she is afraid that Chen Yi will bring the matter back to her, which will only cause displeasure and will waste time explaining, so  She did not follow Chen Yi's words, but went back to what she had just said, and asked again: "What you said makes sense. Ministers who support the little emperor can basically rule out the possibility of committing a crime. Then  I would like to ask you again, is it more likely that Min Zhi is the mastermind of this matter than others? "Wu Zetian deliberately bit the others louder.  Chen Yi heard the meaning of Wu Zetian's words and the pitch of her voice. After thinking about it for a moment, he nodded without denying it.  "Mother, yes, I think it is very likely that Uncle Minzhi did this. However, the report submitted by Di Shangshu did not find any evidence to prove that Uncle Minzhi sent someone to do this, or even the King of Luling.  I can't even find direct evidence that I was killed by others, and I don't dare to infer that!" Chen Yi said, looking at Wu Zetian with a complicated expression, and then said softly: "Queen Mother, I think this may really be the case.  It was because King Luling was seriously ill that he died! Even if he disagrees with this determination, there is no way to find out everything about the incident!" Wu Zetian did not answer Chen Yi's words, but just sighed quietly and continued to ask Chen Yi: "  Ziying, if you think it was Min Xia's hand, why do you think he did it? " Chen Yi did not speak harshly of the other party directly in front of her, which made Wu Zetian feel much better.  To be honest, a while ago He Lan Minzhi kept criticizing Chen Yi in front of her, blaming all the blame for Li Xian's death on Chen Yi, which made her feel very uncomfortable. She even felt that He Lan Minzhi was deliberately setting it up.  , wanting to use this incident to accuse Chen Yian.  Chen Yi did not directly say that He Lan Minzhi did all this. Even if he pinned the possibility of suspicion on her head, he did not blame He Lan Minzhi. It seems that the two people are really different in their abilities.  a lot of.  If He Lan Minzhi hadn't been her nephew and needed him to do things for her, she would have gotten angry just because of these remarks! The change in attitude towards Chen Yi was also directly reflected in the way he addressed her when speaking. She directly called him  Chen Yi's name shows that she is angry with Chen Yi in her heart. It would definitely feel better if she calls her "Zi Ying".  Of course, Chen Yi felt the change in Wu Zetian's mood from the name Wu Zetian called him, and also felt the change in her attitude towards him, so he boldly answered Wu Zetian's question: "Your Majesty, this is actually very simple!" "You  During this period of time, I have been planning to proclaim myself emperor and ascend the throne. If my guess is correct, uncle Minzhi should be more concerned about this matter, because he is the only surviving heir of the Wu family. If you become the emperor, I will prepare  If the throne is passed to the Wu family, Uncle Min will be the first heir to the throne. As long as he thinks so, he does not want King Luling, the Queen Mother, your biological son to live in the world!" "You can't say too much.  , just these few words, Chen Yi stopped talking and ignored the change in Wu Zetian's expression.  Chen Yi's words shocked Wu Zetian's heart. She had thought about this, but she was not sure anymore.  But now that such words came out of Chen Yi¡¯s mouth, it was impossible for her not to take them seriously.  These words are of course very reasonable. It can be said that if He Lan Minzhi really did this, then what Chen Yi said must be a certainty.  If it was found out that it was really He Lan Minzhi who did it, then he could explain that all this was done for her to successfully ascend the throne, so she wouldn't have to punish him.  When she thought of this, Wu Zetian felt extremely sad in her heart.  Her mentality is completely different from a few years ago. As she gets older, the weight of family affection becomes more and more important in her mind. She is no longer at an age where she can completely ignore family affection for the sake of power. She doesn¡¯t know what it is.  The reason was that she was already a little disgusted with killing by any means. In the past two years, she often blamed herself for her cruelty.  If He Lan Minzhi really did this and poisoned Li Xian for her to ascend the throne and for his own chance to be established as the emperor's heir after she ascended the throne, then she would feel very guilty.  Although she did not instruct Helan Minzhi to do this, it can be said that she allowed him to do so. Some time ago, didn't she authorize Helan Minzhi to use any means to do things?  She hated He Lan Minzhi for doing this! But she couldn't figure out why her thoughts had changed so much in just a few years! Seeing Wu Zetian lost in thought, her expression constantly changing, Chen Yi didn't say anything, just  Standing quietly, waiting for Wu Zetian's emotions to calm down.  These words just now touched Wu Zetian's heart, and she became emotional.??change.  However, while Chen Yi was wondering about Wu Zetian's thoughts, Wu Zetian calmed down and asked him again: "Ziying, I want to ask you, if I decide to hand over the General Love Institute to Minzhi, what do you think?"  "Mother, that is absolutely not allowed!" "Why?" "If this is the case, the world will be in chaos! Uncle Minzhi" "Well, I know!" Wu Zetian did not let Chen Yi state the reasons.  Knowing clearly, he interrupted him and waved his hand a little annoyedly: "Zi Ying, you go ahead. I am tired and want to take a rest!" "Yes, empress, I will excuse you!" (To be completed.)  Continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
