    For seven or eight days, Li Zhen was busy with Di Renjie's funeral. As his son-in-law and the leader of the Di family, he had to take on more responsibilities. It was only after the first seven days that he was freed from the complicated funeral affairs and took a long breath.  One breath.

    This morning, Li Zhen was sitting in a small temporary study room reading. Since the first seven days had passed, they all removed their mourning clothes and gradually returned to normal life. During this period, Li Zhen lived with his family in Di Mansion, with an independent  Although the yard and the two-story building are a little more crowded than their own home, after all, the children's grandfather has passed away, so no one will complain about these inconveniences in life.

    At this time, the door opened, and Di Yan came in with a bowl of ginseng tea. Although they had removed their mourning clothes, they still wore plain clothes without any bright colors. The death of her father made Di Yan noticeably thinner.  She was depressed and uneasy, but she was very grateful for her husband's hard work. In her opinion, her husband had also lost a lot of weight.

    ¡°Husband, let¡¯s have a bowl of ginseng tea!¡±

    The tea bowl was a bit hot. Di Yan quickly put the bowl on the table. She looked at the very small temporary study room and said apologetically to Li Zhen: "It's really embarrassing for you to stay in such a small place."

    Li Zhen held her hand, pulled her to sit in his arms, and said with a smile: "The study is just a place for me to rest, not to study knowledge. It is useless to have such a big place. Besides, we will go back tomorrow."  Let¡¯s have another hard night at home!¡±

    Di Yan put her face against her husband's chest and whispered, "You have worked hard these days."

    "Don't say that, everyone is working hard. I think you are ten times harder than me. You have to be busy inside and outside, and you have to take care of the children."

    "I don't care much about the children. Mainly Qingyu takes care of them. In fact, she is also very tired, but she never complains and takes the responsibility silently. I owe her this time."

    Speaking of this, Di Yan asked with a smile: "Is your husband going to court tomorrow?"

    "Yes! The first seven days are over. I will have another day off today, and I will be busy tomorrow. There is a lot of things backlogged at Qianqi Camp, so I have to start a normal life."

    At this time, daughter Li Hui¡¯s voice came from the room, ¡°Is daddy here?¡±

    Li Hui is six years old this year. She is very sensible and cute. She has always been Li Zhen¡¯s darling. Di Yan quickly stood up from her husband, walked to the door and said with a smile: "What is Hui'er doing looking for daddy?"

    "Mom is here too! Er Niang said that there is something very important and she wants dad to go to the inner hall. I saw Aunt Wang crying."

    Li Zhen was startled. The Aunt Wang her daughter was talking about was Yao Xi's wife Wang and Wang Qingyu's clan sister. Li Zhen felt something bad in his heart and quickly stood up and said: "Go and have a look!"

    He and Di Yan walked quickly towards the inner hall. As soon as they reached the door of the inner hall, Wang Qingyu came up to him, pulled Li Zhen aside, and whispered: "Husband, something happened to Yao Xi?"

    "What happened?" Li Zhen asked nervously.

    "I heard from the clan sister that a poison was detected in the medicine the Holy Lord drank, and this medicine was cooked by Yao Xi himself. Now Yao Xi has been arrested and is going to be severely punished."

    Li Zhen immediately understood that Zhang must be retaliating against him. First, he framed Yao Xi, and finally pointed the finger at himself. They would definitely use torture to force Yao Xi to confess that he was instigated by him.

    Li Zhen realized that the matter was serious. He thought for a moment and then whispered to Wang: "First comfort your sister, and I will find a way to save people."

    He then said to Di Yan: "I'll live in Di Mansion for the time being. Don't move back. It's safer here, so be vigilant."

    Di Yan gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "As long as they dare to come, see how I kill them."

    Li Zhen had no time to joke anymore. He turned around and left the Di Mansion. He took a few soldiers and ran towards the imperial city. After a while, he came to the Mingtang and arrived in front of Shangguan Wan'er's official room. He said to an eunuch at the door.  : "Report to Shangguanshe for me, saying that I have something urgent to come to her for."

    As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Wan'er's voice came from the room, "Come in! No need to announce any more."

    Li Zhen quickly walked into Shangguan Wan'er's official room. Shangguan Wan'er seemed to know that he was coming, and pointed to the seat next to her with her pen, "Please sit down!"

    As time went by, the relationship between them had become as dull as water. Shangguan Wan'er never considered taking Li Zhen as her own, and Li Zhen no longer relied on Shangguan Wan'er. However, this time, Li Zhen did come to  Shangguan Wan'er helped. Although Princess Taiping could also help, Li Zhen knew that if he asked Princess Taiping, things would get worse.

    ?? ?Guan Wan'er put down her pen and said with a calm smile: "You are here because of Yao Xi's affairs!"

    "She already knows?"

    "How could I not know? The palace has been in chaos over this matter, saying that as long as the two accomplices are confessed, they can be exempted.As a result, these eunuchs and palace ladies who were unreamed were bitter, and at least a hundred people were arrested now.  "

    "How is Yao Xi?"

    "He is locked up in a dark cell in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and his life will probably not be easy."

    Li Zhen said coldly: "This is Er Zhang taking revenge on me!"

    "Retaliation?"

    Shangguan Wan'er snorted disdainfully, "You beat Zhang Changyi so badly, don't you think they will retaliate? I tell you, they not only want to retaliate against you, but also want to kill you. Once they are arranged to kill you,  Your whole family will not be able to escape your crime, Li Zhen, you are already on the edge of the cliff."

    Li Zhen was silent. He knew that Shangguan Wan'er was telling the truth. After Di Renjie's death, he and Er Zhang were already at odds with each other. If Er Zhang didn't kill him, he would kill Er Zhang in the future. He was busy with Di Renjie's funeral these days.  I couldn't care less about it, but the storm came quietly.

    "Do you think the Holy One will kill me?" After a moment of silence, Li Zhen asked again.

    "It's hard to say. Your Majesty's thoughts are ever-changing. Sometimes she will protect you and reprimand Er Zhang for you, but sometimes, she will just listen to whatever Er Zhang says. She is so confused that it is incredible. It depends on your luck, but  ¡­Judging from the current situation, you may not be very lucky this time.¡±

    "Can Shiren help me this time?" Li Zhen asked again.

    Shangguan Wan'er looked at him quietly for a moment, with a half-smile expression on her face, and asked bluntly: "If I say that I have to go to bed as a condition, will you agree?"

    Li Zhen was speechless for a long time, and finally shook his head. Shangguan Wan'er's face immediately darkened, and she said coldly: "I know you won't agree, but I helped you, so what's the benefit?"

    Li Zhen replied calmly: "I will save another person's life at a critical moment, I mean some time in the future."

    Shangguan Wan'er laughed, shook her head and said, "It's too weak, I can't accept it!"

    "What does Shiren want?"

    There was a trace of sadness in Shangguan Wan'er's eyes, and she whispered: "Actually, I just want to relive the old dream with you, but I don't want to force you, okay! I will help you this time without any conditions. After all, you saved me back then."  My life."

    Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "Whether you are willing to accept it or not, I will never abandon you in the future. I, Li Zhen, am a person who misses my old love. I will repay you for the kindness I gave you back then."

    After saying that, Li Zhen stood up and gave a salute, turned around and left quickly. Shangguan Wan'er looked at his leaving back, the sadness in her eyes became more intense. After a while, she whispered to herself, "I gave birth to Jun Wei."  "Sheng, you gave birth to me, I am already old."

    Although Shangguan Wan'er agreed to help Li Zhen help him this time, she didn't expect how to do it specifically. As the impact of Di Renjie's death gradually weakened, the emperor's intention to severely punish the Zhang brothers became less and less, and his attitude towards the Zhang brothers became weaker and weaker.  The Zhang brothers were as doting as before, so it was difficult for Li Zhen to pass the test this time.

    The key lies in Yao Xi. Whether he can withstand Wu Yizong's torture, but what if he can? Wu Yizong can easily make him press his fingerprints, so getting Yao Xi off the hook is the top priority. Shangguan  Wan'er thought about it and decided to talk to the Lord.

    Di Renjie's death made Wu Zetian feel guilty and dissatisfied with Zhang Changzong. However, as a few days passed, Zhang Changzong doubled his service, which made Wu Zetian very angry.  I finally accommodated him and stopped forcing myself.

    This poisoning case in the palace made Wu Zetian extremely angry, and she ordered a strict investigation, which caused a huge uproar in the palace. She would not give in. Even if she killed hundreds of people, she would still find the murderer behind the scenes.

    In the palace, the chamberlain Xia Zhongzheng carefully reported the progress of the poisoning case to Wu Zetian.

    "Your Majesty, it is basically certain that the imperial physician Yao Xi is the most suspected of poisoning, and it is said that he has admitted to poisoning and only wants to die."

    "Is it Dr. Yao?"

    Wu Zetian frowned. She liked the massage Yao Xi gave her the most. The acupuncture points were precise and the force was neither light nor heavy. She felt relaxed every time after the massage. His technique was no less than that of Shen Nanmiu back then. I heard that  It was Yao Xi who poisoned her, and she immediately felt a little uncomfortable. If Yao Xi had it, who would massage her in the future?

    ¡°Andif he wanted to kill himself, it would be easy. Is it necessary to poison him?

    "Are you sure it's him?" Wu Zetian asked with some displeasure.

    Xia Zhong is extremely naughty. He will never take the matter on himself. He quickly said: "I just went to ask the King of Hanoi who was in charge of the case. He said that Yao Yuyi had confessed."

    "Is it because you surrendered?" Wu Zetian said coldly. She knew very well that Wu Yizong's methods were much better than those of Lai Junchen.?Not as good as.

    "This. I really don't know how to try the case specifically."

    "Go and find Wu Yizong for me!"

    "Yes, I obey the order!" Xia Zhong rushed towards Yingtianmen in a panic.

    At this time, Shangguan Wan'er quietly appeared next to Wu Zetian. This was her privilege. Seeing Wu Zetian did not require any report. This had been the case for decades. She asked softly: "Is Your Majesty still angry about the poisoning case?"

    Wu Zetian nodded glumly, "I just got a report from Manager Xia. It was actually Dr. Yao who poisoned me. I'm really puzzled."

    Shangguan Wan'er was secretly happy. She knew the Holy One very well. As long as the Holy One had doubts in his heart, there was hope that the matter would be solved. She pretended to be surprised and said: "No way! How could it be Yao Yuyi? Is it necessary for him to poison me?"  ?¡±

    "I also feel very confused. He has the closest contact with me. If he wants to harm me, he can do it with his eyes closed. If I can't even trust the imperial doctor, who else can I trust? But he has already admitted it, which makes me feel  It¡¯s very difficult.¡±

    Shangguan Wan'er suddenly knelt down, Wu Zetian was startled, "Wan'er, what are you doing?"
