    Wu Sansi also became nervous. Zhang Changzong must have something important to do with Cao Wen, otherwise Cao Wen would not come to him so late. He listened carefully, fearing that he would miss the key words.

    "Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi decided to kill Li Zhen."

    Wu thought twice and was surprised, "How could they have such an idea?"

    "Does father-in-law know about Di Renjie?"

    "I know, it is said that the situation is very bad."

    Wu Sansi suddenly realized, "Does Li Zhen want to avenge Di Renjie?"

    Cao Wen nodded, "Something happened outside Xiping Gate at noon today. Zhang Changyi was beaten violently by Li Zhen, and his hands and feet were broken. How could the two Zhangs let Li Zhen go, but the Holy One seemed unwilling to pursue it, so the two Zhangs have been  Seeing Li Zhen as a close friend, Zhang Changzong told me personally that if they don't kill Li Zhen now, Li Zhen will kill them a hundred years later."

    Wu Sansi finally understood. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Do you want to form an alliance with me to deal with Li Zhen together?"

    "That's exactly what Zhang Changzong meant."

    Wu Sansi walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and frowned slightly: "Li Zhen is not that easy to deal with. He holds the military power of the Qianqi Camp and is the son-in-law of the Di family. Moreover, I suspect that he is the core figure of the Xingtang Society. If he wants to  Dealing with him is equivalent to fighting against the Xingtang Society. If Zhang Changzong wants to drag me into trouble, I can agree, but I am more concerned about what I can get. "

    Wu Sansi looked back at Cao Wen, "Do you understand what I mean?"

    "Of course my son-in-law understands. I also told Zhang Changzong clearly that my father-in-law has been working hard for three years just waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback. If they are sincere, they should help my father-in-law achieve his wish."

    This is what Wu Sanxiu meant. He happily asked: "Then what is his attitude?"

    ¡°He said that they fully understood his father-in-law¡¯s wishes and that they were willing to do their best to help him reach the top of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.¡±

    Wu Sansi snorted heavily, "If I had known today, who would they have been three years ago?"

    Cao Wen fully understood his father-in-law's resentful attitude. He advised: "Actually, the Zhang brothers are not reliable people. It can be seen three years ago that they only consider their own interests, so they are not eager to express their opinions and try their best to prevent them."  The Holy Lord established the crown prince. They wanted to stand up at the most critical moment of the decisive battle between Li and Wu to gain the greatest benefits. Frankly speaking, if it hadn't been for the enmity between Li Zhen and them caused by the Di Renjie incident, the Zhang brothers might not have been willing to express their stance so clearly.  Support your father-in-law, and he doesn¡¯t have to be angry.¡±

    Wu Sansi nodded, "You are right. No matter how hateful the Zhang brothers are, they are still powerful. In Li Wu's battle for the throne, their attitude is crucial. Of course, I will fully cooperate with them."  , I don¡¯t know how I can help them?¡±

    Cao Wen laughed sinisterly, "I suggest that my father-in-law use some tricks this time to prevent the two from being decoupled prematurely."

    "How do you say this?" Wu Sansi asked anxiously.

    "Three years ago, my father-in-law gave them the benefits too early. When they were full, they got rid of my father-in-law. So this time, we have to provoke and continue to build momentum to intensify the conflict between Li Zhen and them. It is best for my father-in-law to ascend the throne.  Later, he came to fulfill his promise and kept them on the hook, so that they had to ask their father-in-law for help.¡±

    Wu Sansi gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "A good son-in-law is ten times better than Mr. Ming."

    The time has passed the fifth watch, but the lights are still brightly lit in the Di Mansion. Everyone is standing in the courtyard waiting anxiously. They have not slept all night, not only Di Renjie¡¯s family, but also Zhang Jianzhi, Yao Chong, Wei Yuanzhong, Wu Youning, and Yang Zaisi.  Waiting for the senior officials of the Prime Minister, as well as dozens of Di Renjie's disciples who came from near Luoyang, they all took up important posts in the state and county.

    Li Zhen and Di Yan stood in the corner of the yard, holding hands tightly, silently wishing Di Renjie could survive this ordeal. Starting from night, Di Renjie's breathing began to fail. More than a dozen imperial doctors were trying their best to rescue him, but Li Zhen knew in his heart  , I am afraid it will be difficult for miracles to happen again, after all, Di Renjie is already old.

    At this time, the moment that everyone feared the most finally appeared. Faint sounds of crying could be heard in the ward. Di Yan threw herself into Li Zhen's arms, tears streaming down her face. An imperial doctor came out feebly and sighed:  "Let's all express our condolences!"

    Suddenly there was a burst of crying in the yard. Everyone fell to their knees and cried loudly. Li Zhen couldn't stop his tears from pouring out. He held his wife tightly in his arms. At this moment, he deeply felt the endless sorrow of the death of his loved one.  .

    It was getting daylight, and a huge mourning tent was erected in front of the Di Mansion. Wrapped in cloth and holding flags, people came to express their condolences. There was an endless stream of people, not only court officials, but also civilians in Luoyang. They helped the old and the young.  Come to pay homage to this legendary prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

    In the palace, Wu Zetian felt a little sick last night and did not go to court today, but she was also a little confused.He was so panicked that he struggled to sit up and asked, "Is there any news from Di Xiangguo?"

    "Reporting to Your Majesty, more than a dozen imperial doctors have been sent to Prime Minister Di's Mansion, but there is no news yet."

    As soon as he finished speaking, there were rapid footsteps outside the bedroom. A eunuch rushed into the bedroom, knelt down and cried: "Your Majesty, there is news from Di Mansion, Di Xiangguo, hehe has gone."

    Wu Zetian felt a thunderbolt in the clear sky, her eyes blurred, her body swayed, and she suddenly fell to the ground, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" The eunuchs and maids were all panicked, and one eunuch shouted: "Quickly call the imperial doctor!  Go quickly!¡±

    Several eunuchs rushed to the imperial doctor's room. Without waiting for the imperial doctor to arrive, Wu Zetian woke up on her own. She let out a long sigh, "I have lost Di Qing, and it is a great misfortune for the country!"

    After saying that, she burst into tears.

    Di Renjie's death was undoubtedly a major event that shocked both the government and the public. Wu Zetian ordered the court to stay in court for three days to express condolences, and asked Prime Minister Li Dan to go to Di's Mansion to pay homage on her behalf. All music studios in the city also spontaneously stopped singing and dancing entertainment, and many families died.  White flags were raised to see Di Renjie off, and the whole city of Luoyang mourned.

    Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi were extremely quiet these two days. They were hiding in Konghe Mansion in panic. They also learned about Di Renjie's death. Zhang Changzong was especially scared. Di Renjie fainted because of his insults. The Holy Father also said that if Di Renjie  If there are any shortcomings, they will be attacked.

    In the room, Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi were plotting how to deal with the situation at hand. Zhang Changzong gritted his teeth and said: "As soon as Di Renjie died, our great feud with Li Zhen was concluded. Now it's either you who die or I live. I think we should start early, and we can't do it again."  Drag it down."

    "But our strength may not be enough."

    Zhang Yizhi was very worried. They had been secretly recruiting troops in recent years, and they had three to four thousand warriors in their hands, distributed in farms all over the country. If they were summoned to Beijing, they would be discovered by others.

    Zhang Changzong snorted, "Actually, there is no need for so many people. Just find a skilled killer. It is best for Wu Sansi to do it. Since we support him to inherit the throne, he has to express his will."

    "Wu Sansi is a very slippery man, and he is probably not reliable. It is better to rely on him than on yourself. We will kill him, and we will leave it to him to take care of his affairs."

    While they were discussing, a eunuch's report came from outside the door: "Two generals, Eunuch Xia has something urgent to report."

    Xia Zhong was selected by the Zhang brothers from among many confidant eunuchs to succeed Gao Yanfu. Xia Zhong was originally a minor deacon in charge of filth in the palace, but with the vigorous cultivation of the Zhang brothers, Xia Zhong was reused by Wu Zetian and granted the title of  As a chamberlain.

    ¡°Coupled with the fact that he was also shrewd and capable, Wu Zetian entrusted him with more and more important matters, even such important matters as the preparation of the palace ceremony.

    Xia Zhong has become the head of the eunuchs and has great power in the palace, but he knows in his heart that all his power and wealth come from the Zhang brothers. Without the Zhang brothers, he will have nothing. It is for this reason  , he was extremely flattering to the Zhang brothers and became their loyal lackeys.

    "Come in!" Zhang Changzong was a little unhappy that Xia Zhong interrupted their conversation, but Xia Zhong must have something important to report.

    Xia Zhong walked in and saluted deeply, "See you two generals!"

    ¡°If you have anything to say, just say it, don¡¯t be so mean and sour!¡± Zhang Yizhi waved his hands impatiently.

    "Reporting to the two generals, His Majesty was so cruel just now that he said that he would send the two generals to Lingnan for confinement."

    The hearts of the two of them were beating fast. Zhang Changzong asked nervously: "What next?"

    "Then Shangguan Sheren persuaded Your Majesty, saying that General Zhang was just angry for a moment and did not want to cause such consequences. If Your Majesty punishes General Zhang severely again, I am afraid it will only cause greater chaos."

    "Well said!" Zhang Changzong praised, and turned to Zhang Yizhi: "I didn't expect that Shangguan would help us at a critical moment. I usually look down on her, and I feel a little ashamed!"

    Zhang Yizhi sneered and said: "This woman is just a bit smarter. She knows that the Holy Emperor will not punish us, so she just goes along with the situation and gets a favor. Anyway, I accept this favor and I want to thank you."

    Zhang Changzong didn¡¯t want to quarrel with his brother, so he asked Xia Zhongdao, ¡°Is there anything else?¡±

    ¡°Also, don¡¯t forget about the matter that Master Six asked me to investigate last time. Regarding Yao Xi¡¯s background, I have already found out clearly.¡±

    Zhang Yizhi suddenly became energetic and asked quickly: "Is he really Li Zhen's person?"

    "I am not sure whether he is Li Zhen's person or not, but he is indeed Li Zhen'an who was inserted into the imperial doctor's room. He is also from Dunhuang and came to Beijing at the same time as Li Zhen."

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? togetherHis son was placed in the imperial doctor's room and studied medicine with Shen Nanmiu. In addition, Yao Xi was very low-key and was deliberately protected by Gao Yanfu, so he did not attract the attention of the Zhang brothers in these years. However, since Xia Zhong gradually took control of the inner palace,  , he began to pay attention to Yao Xi, and finally found out the details of Yao Xi.

    "It is indeed Li Zhen's person!"

    Zhang Yizhi gritted his teeth and said, "He even saw a doctor for me. If he wanted to kill me, wouldn't it be easy?"

    Zhang Changzong asked again: "Are Shangguanshe people still taking care of him?"

    ¡°I used to take good care of him, but in recent years I have taken very little care of him.¡±

    Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong looked at each other, with a sneer in their eyes.
