Chapter 1158 The Queen Mother Must Be Very Sad Right Now

Wu Xu carried Xiao Ping'an back to the room, and Queen Changsun Huang's eyes fell on Li Tai.

"Whatever you want to say, you can say it now." Queen Changsun said.

Li Tai frowned and his eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't quite understand what Queen Changsun did when she asked Wu Xu to carry the child in.

"Recently, there is news that the imperial brother Zhao Chen is not actually dead. There is news that he appeared in Cangzhou." Li Tai said slowly, his eyes falling on the face of Queen Changsun.

Li Tai wanted to know if Queen Changsun knew the news.

If she knew, then she would have to investigate the Zhao Mansion carefully to find out who could pass the news to her under such strict surveillance.

Queen Changsun heard the news from Li Tai that Zhao Chen was still alive.

A trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, which made Li Tai a little disappointed.

I wondered if my mother didn't know that Zhao Chen was still alive.

In other words, Zhao Chen has not yet contacted those people in Chang'an City.

Or is it that Zhao Chen doesn't care about his daughter's life or death at all?

"The Queen Mother doesn't seem surprised. Could it be that she has learned the news before?" Li Tai asked with a smile, but he tested Queen Changsun again.

"Qingque, the queen mother has moved out of the palace and is extremely dissatisfied with what you have done."

"Zhao Chen is dead, but he is your royal brother after all. This kind of joke is not funny at all." Empress Changsun stood up angrily and glared at Li Tai.

Queen Changsun didn't know that Li Tai was testing her.

After saying these two sentences, I felt a little uneasy.

She didn't know if Li Tai would see that she already knew that Zhao Chen was still alive.

If Li Tai sees it, will he take action against Zhao Chen's daughter?

"Your Highness, Lord Changsun is here." Just when Queen Changsun was feeling anxious, someone suddenly walked into the courtyard and said that Changsun Wuji was here.

"My mother and my uncle haven't seen each other for a while, right?

Okay, let your uncle talk to your mother. "Li Tai smiled and said something to Queen Changsun, turned around and walked out.

Queen Changsun breathed a sigh of relief and saw Changsun Wuji walking towards her from outside.

"My eldest son, Sun Wuji, pays homage to the Queen." Changsun Wuji paid homage to Queen Changsun. There was no joy in meeting relatives on his face.

Instead, he looked cold.

Empress Changsun was about to call her brother Changsun Wuji, but when she saw his appearance, her heart sank slightly and she said: "No need to be polite, just sit down."

"There's no need to sit down." Changsun Wuji rejected Queen Changsun's kindness.

"I came here today just to tell the queen two things."

"First, the war in Cangzhou is stalemate. Your Majesty will definitely not be able to come back in a short time. I hope that your Majesty will not misunderstand the situation and not collude with some old guys who don't know what they are talking about."

"Secondly, although Zhao Chen is still alive, the prince has sent an army to kill him. Thieves like Zhao Chen will definitely be killed. Your Majesty, just treat Zhao Chen as dead a long time ago and don't think about other things. "Changsun Wuji stood in front of Queen Changsun. He just left a few words coldly and turned around to leave.

Not even an extra glance.

Queen Changsun sat there blankly, her mind only echoing the news that Li Tai sent troops to strangle Zhao Chen.

…

"Your Highness, I have already spoken to the Queen."

"But I still feel that we need to arrange manpower around her, otherwise sooner or later it will be a problem." Changsun Wuji left the Zhao Mansion, saw Li Tai standing at the door of the Zhao Mansion, walked up to him and said.

"Thank you for your hard work, uncle, my mother must be very sad at the moment." Li Tai turned around and glanced at the Zhao Mansion with the door closed.

Zhao Chen was not worried at all.

he just wants to

Empress Changsun recognizes the reality clearly and does not do anything to embarrass herself behind her back.

"A woman's opinion is just stubborn and ineffective."

"They all thought that Zhao Chen could conquer the world by himself, but they didn't know that it was not certain whether Zhao Chen could escape now." Changsun Wuji said with a joking look on his lips.

Li Tai smiled. He quite believed in Changsun Wuji's loyalty to him at this moment.

After all, everyone in the world knows that Changsun Wuji has an extremely good relationship with his brother and sister, Queen Changsun.

But when they meet today, the two of them will probably turn against each other.

But it doesn't matter, as long as Li Tai's great cause can be achieved, so what if he sacrifices a little of their feelings?

"Uncle, at the court tomorrow, I am going to ask my uncle to replace Fang Xuanling as the right servant of the Minister of the Tang Dynasty."

"As for Zhongshu Ling, it's better to let Kong Yingda do it. He has many disciples and old officials in the court, so it's better for him to be Zhongshu Ling." Li Tai said to Changsun Wuji with a smile.

The Tang Dynasty implemented a system of three provinces and six ministries, of which the three provinces were Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province.

The chiefs of each of the three provinces are Zhongshu Ling, Shi Zhong, and Shangshu Ling.

However, Emperor Li Shimin once served as Shangshu Ling, so since he ascended the throne, he has no longer established Shangshu Ling.

Shangshu province's left and right servants are actually Shangshu orders.

But now Li Tai appointed Kong Yingda as Shangshu Zuopushe, and also named him Zhongshu Ling.

In just one day, Kong Yingda took control of Lai Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province.

It is no exaggeration to say that his power is overwhelming.

When Changsun Wuji heard that Li Tai was going to make him the minister's right servant, his face immediately showed excitement.

He bowed his hands to Li Tai and said, "Thank you very much for your kindness, Crown Prince. I will wear all night clothes and eat well at night, and ride the horses and horses for His Royal Highness."

At this moment, Changsun Wuji was completely like a dog that had been rewarded by its owner, wagging its tail desperately with Li Tai.

r> Li Tai smiled and looked at Changsun Wuji with a trace of pride on his face.

…

"Old man, how are you?"

Fangfu.

Although he was seriously injured and his official position was cut off, Li Tai did not do it completely.

Fang Xuanling and his family can still live in their own house.

Of course, this is not because Li Taizhai is kind-hearted, but because Fang Xuanling's influence in the court is really great.

It's okay to clean up Fang Xuanling by himself. If he is killed, not only the officials in the court, but also the people of Chang'an will accuse him in every possible way.

Now that there is no news about Zhao Chen's life or death, Li Tai dare not do everything.

Otherwise, if Zhao Chen really returns to Chang'an, the people who oppose him and Li Tai may not be able to suppress him.

"It's okay." Fang Xuanling was lying on the bed with a heavy tone and a pale look on his face.

Fang Xuanling was already quite young, but she was beaten so hard by Changsun Wuji that her life almost died.

It is extremely difficult to survive.

"Alas, this court is now covered in darkness. Changsun Wuji, who was your Majesty's most trusted minister at the beginning, is now acting like a dog to Li Tai." Mrs. Lu sighed, looking at Fang Xuanling's defeated face, feeling in her heart Extremely scared.

Today Changsun Wuji can come and beat her husband and son to death, and tomorrow he can execute their whole family.

Staying in Chang'an is undoubtedly waiting for death.

"Old man, why don't we wait until you get better? Let's leave Chang'an and go back to Qizhou." Lu said to Fang Xuanling again.

I want to persuade him to leave Chang'an and go back to Qizhou.

"Madam, if the Tang State falls into the hands of Li Tai, we will not be able to escape death wherever we go..."

"Then what do you think we should do? Should we stay here and wait to die?" Lu interrupted Fang Xuanling and cried.
