[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 21 Second St. 14

Everyone was taken aback by the terrified look of the king's servant. If the most powerful servant in the Taiji Palace was at a loss, there was nothing else to do except His Majesty's health!

Wu Xu had already stood up, with a very stern look on her face, "What happened to the Emperor?!" Her first thought was whether that boy Li Xiaojiu had relapsed!

In the past year, although the two of them have been traveling around with unlimited scenery on the surface, they have been devoting themselves to the matter of eradicating the Wa Kingdom in private.

In terms of personnel transfer, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu carefully considered and selected them carefully.Forget about major logistical matters such as military horses, food and grass, he has to study for a long time on the tactical issues that the generals should worry about...

If you have to care about everything in this way, how can your body handle it?

When Wu Xu was in Jincheng, he felt that Li Xiaojiu's body was a little worn out, so he was not allowed to read more military newspapers at that time, and she took care of things.After finally returning to Chang'an, Wu Xu also relaxed his vigilance after a Spring Festival recuperation, who knows what will happen now? !

Wang's servant couldn't help but trembled from Wu Xu's sharp gaze, and hurriedly explained: "The emperor's body is fine for the time being, but Li Jian, the inspector of Qin Tianjian, is determined to see the queen, saying that there will be a major event in the near future..."

Qin Tianjian?

Wu Xu couldn't help frowning when she heard about the department concerned.

She didn't believe in magic sticks at first, but she had encountered such ridiculous things as time travel, and some strange things with supernatural powers, she had to guard against them!

But Li Hong, Wu Minzhi and Li Sanlang couldn't help but have different expressions when they heard Wang's servant's words.

Eighty percent of the major events mentioned by Qin Tianjian are due to the difference in the celestial phenomena!

For a dynasty that has been influenced by the idea of ​​"monarchy granted by heaven" for many years, it is very difficult to deal with such things as astronomical differences. If it is not handled well, it may shake the people's confidence in the ruler!

Just like in the few years when Li Xiaojiu first came to the throne, natural disasters occurred every year, either earthquakes or floods, which caused everyone in the Tang Dynasty to question the legitimacy of Li Xiaojiu's succession to the Great Reign. Peasant uprising...

This is when natural disasters occur and have the greatest impact on rulers.

However, what is more amazing is that since Wu Xu came to power, there have been no large-scale natural disasters in the Tang Dynasty, let alone astronomical anomalies.

The imperial party personnel headed by Xu Jingzong hyped up that the new empress is a lucky star, Yun Yun, who was sent by heaven to assist His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, and Wu Xu's hairs were so numb with such beautiful words!

However, even during the most difficult years of Li Xiaojiu's accession to the throne, Qin Tianjian didn't make any fuss, but today he was surprised and asked to see Wu Xu. What's going on? !

Seeing that Wang's servant couldn't understand Qin Tianjian's intention, Wu Xu ordered people to prepare the chariot immediately and took Li Hong and others to Liangyi Hall.

Because Mr. Li was accompanying him, Wu Xu specially prepared a chariot to send him off.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Liangyi Hall, they saw three or five imperial physicians hurrying towards the main hall, not even noticing the arrival of the queen's car.

When Wu Xu and the others saw the imperial physician appearing, their faces became more solemn.

Wu Xu didn't wait for Xiao Shunzi to help her get off the chariot, but jumped out of the chariot and walked towards the main hall.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little weird. His Majesty Li Xiaojiu sat on it expressionlessly, and an old man with gray beard was kneeling under him. All the ordinary palace servants were shunned to the side hall. Only the servants Cui, Wei Shanggong and others were left in the hall. There is a confidant of the empress.

When Wu Xu came in, she saw Li Xiaojiu throwing something like a scroll on the couch.

As a result, the scroll flicked on the couch, popped out of the soft couch, and hit the old man kneeling on the main hall directly!

Wu Xu: "囧..." Is this a joke?

Everyone: "..." Emperor, are you swollen?

Wu Xu took a few steps forward, bent down to pick up the half-scattered scroll that had fallen to the ground, and only glanced at the words "solar eclipse, yin invades yang, and there will be a disaster for the king's death". It's getting dark...

What the hell is this shit? !

How come it has something to do with the solar eclipse?

"Awu, are you here?" His Majesty Li Xiaojiu saw Wu Xu and others coming in, so he sat up straight and called his wife to come to him.

Wu Xu took the scroll and sat next to Li Xiaojiu naturally, followed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and others stepped forward to salute His Majesty the Emperor.

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu saw that Aizi and his confidantes were all there, and immediately retracted his originally annoyed look, and changed into an inscrutable look.

After Mr. Li sat down, he began to look at the old man who was still kneeling in the hall.

The old man was wearing Ziyi clothes, with a Taoist scarf commonly used by Taoist children tied on his head, coupled with his long flowing beard that was more than a foot long, he looked a bit daft and immortal, of course, if you can ignore The red mark on the old man's forehead that was hit just now will be fine...

Mr. Li looked at the old man thoughtfully for a while, his white face suddenly twisted slightly, his eyes changed from the lazy state just now to very sharp.

At this time, Wu Xu had already recognized that the old man kneeling on the ground who looked like a magic stick was Li Chunfeng, the current leader of the Qin Tianjian, but she still didn't understand what the purpose of this old man was.

If it has something to do with the scroll in her hand, does it mean that a solar eclipse will happen soon?

The solar eclipse is still a terrible astronomical phenomenon in this era. Although scientists in the Han Dynasty had speculated on the cause of the solar eclipse, the works of those scientists were not known to the world, and many Confucian scholars were very interested in these scientific works. Disapproved, wantonly suppressed.Therefore, if there is a solar eclipse, the "unconventional" things such as Li Xiaojiu's previous expedition to the peninsula, the Japanese country, and the vigorous selection of young officials from poor families to be local feudal officials are likely to be used by those pedantic veterans and aristocratic families as attacks on the New Deal. excuse.

Wu Xu does not doubt Qin Tianjian's astronomical observation technology, and also believes that Li Chunfeng, an old guy who looks like a magic stick, should know that solar eclipses have nothing to do with what is said on the scroll, but why does this old guy still Was it smashed by Li Xiaojiu?

"Li Qing, you mean that there will be a solar eclipse soon? Then what's the matter with this scroll? Is someone going to target me?" Wu Xu didn't go around in circles, and asked Li Chunfeng directly what was going on.

Tianhou's intuition is really accurate. Before she even understood the situation, she knew that someone was going to target her!

Li Chunfeng couldn't help but secretly wiped his sweat. When he received the scroll that looked like a prophecy, he pondered for several days before he realized that someone had not only found out about his exploration, but also set up a countermeasure against him. The emperor and queen's poisonous plan, especially for the latter!

"Tian Hou Ming Jian, this solar eclipse, the old minister has just calculated it, but there have been some rumors of an ominous solar eclipse in Chang'an City..." Li Chunfeng has been an official in the court for many years, so he naturally knows that the emperor is very concerned about certain astronomical phenomena. I am very concerned about changes, and every time I have to take emergency measures in advance, and sometimes even make some foolish 'auspiciousness' to fool the public.

Now that the matter of guiding public opinion has been preempted by others, it is no wonder that His Majesty the Emperor is so angry!

Now the people in Chang'an already have a preliminary impression of the "significance" of the solar eclipse. When the solar eclipse really happens, it won't cause panic!

On the contrary, those aristocratic families ascended to the top and fooled the people who didn't know the truth. Li Xiaojiu's rule would be terrible!

Now Wu Xu also knew that things were more serious than she imagined...

"Alas... Back then, science should have been a compulsory subject for Jinshi..." Wu Xu couldn't help muttering annoyedly.

But this time is not the time to be upset, let's think about how to break the upcoming counterattack of the aristocratic families!

Obviously, in this kind of matter, His Royal Highness is not experienced enough, so he can only sit silently and watch how his father and mother handle it.

Wu Minzhi is a son of a family, but with his temperament, it is estimated that he is not very able to handle these roundabout schemes.

Only Mr. Li looked confident at this time, and it seemed that he had already made up his mind.

However, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu obviously did not intend to consult him, but just waved his hand to let Li Chunfeng get up and speak first.

"Since a solar eclipse is inevitable, Li Qing, please tell me when it will be."

When Li Chunfeng heard that the question was about his major, he was unambiguous, and immediately said: "According to the calculation of the veteran, this solar eclipse should be two months later..."

"Is it a total solar eclipse or a partial eclipse?" Wu Xu asked hastily.

"This...should be a total solar eclipse." After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, he felt uneasy again. After several total solar eclipse records recorded in history books, large-scale turmoil occurred in the country. It was either a change in the government or a natural disaster. I don't know if it was a coincidence. What is it!

When Wu Xu heard that it was a total solar eclipse, she also sighed.

If it is a partial eclipse, it can be remedied, but this total solar eclipse is not easy to handle!

She looked back and saw that Li Sanlang had not said a word so far, so she couldn't help asking: "Mr. Li, what's your opinion?"

Li Sanlang hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "I don't dare to have a high opinion, since the Queen of Heaven has asked, I will tell you my humble opinion..."

"In the past, the Wa Kingdom sent envoys to visit Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, claiming to be the 'Land of the Rising Sun' in the letter of credence, its royal family claiming to be descendants of the Sun God, and its ruler even claiming to be the son of the Sun God..."

"This 'Land of the Rising Sun' is now more than half destroyed. If the day of the solar eclipse is the day when the entire country is destroyed by the Great Tang, then..."

Speaking of this, Li Sanlang's peach blossom eyes were full of arrogance, and he was full of arrogance. Obviously, he was full of confidence that the Tang army would wipe out the Hairen regime who fled to the northern part of the country within two months!

When Wu Xu heard Li Sanlang's words, he suddenly understood.

Yup!

The family wanted to use the solar eclipse to attack Li Xiaojiu and her New Deal. Why couldn't they use the solar eclipse to prove that the Eastern Expedition was correct?

Wasn't Little Japan, a small island country that claims to be shrouded in the sun, destroyed by the Tang Dynasty?

Then the occurrence of a solar eclipse has become a matter of course!

Hmm~~ She has to hurry up and let Chang'an Bookstore distribute some remarks about the Great Tang will destroy Little Japan overnight!The author has something to say: the next chapter will deal with Mr. Li's marriage, Jiang Zier.two
