Chapter 678 The Chaos Caused by the Emperor's Quiet Exit from the Palace

Before Wu Zetian could finish her words, Yuan Tiangang could no longer hold back.

He tilted his neck back and a gurgling sound came from his throat. Suddenly, he let out a long "Ah" and fell to the ground.

His eyes widened and his gaze fell on Wu Zetian's face.

The amiable Majesty gave him a kind smile, so gentle that he didn't seem like a killer.

"What's wrong, teacher? You claim to have calculated everything in the world, but did you expect that I would kill so many members of the Snake Spirit?"

Looking down at Yuan Tiangang who had deceived her time and again, the anger of hatred in Wu Zetian's heart gradually turned into ridicule.

This is the feeling she wants!

She just wanted to crush everything about Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang was filled with grief at the moment, not knowing whether he would have the chance to see the light of day again.

Before he was arrested, he handed the Snake Spirit over to Xiao Qingfang, but Xiao Qingfang was only the apparent helmsman. Under Xiao Qingfang there was also Jin Mulan, who was able to command the entire Snake Spirit.

With the help of these two people inside the Snake Spirit, it would be easy for him to get out. These two people have plenty of ways to rescue him.

only.

Both of them are gone now.

After the death of Xiao Qingfang and Jin Mulan, the remaining members of the Snake Spirit, such as Huan Bin and Kui Wenzhong, had no way to rescue him.

"It's over, it's over..."

Yuan Tiangang felt disheartened and no longer as calm as before.

"Teacher, you better accept your fate and quickly tell me the truth about the Luo River miracle, otherwise you will continue to stay in the dungeon for the rest of your life."

Wu Zetian covered her face and laughed, then turned and left.

"Lock this old man in the dungeon and starve him for two days!"

"And then..."

"Then use severe punishment on me!"

"Whenever he is willing to tell the truth, the torture will stop!"

Huang Shengyan raised his hand, clasped his fists and said, "I will obey your orders."

Torture has always been Huang Shengyan's method.

If Yuan Tiangang is toyed with in this way, it is unknown whether this old man can survive more than three days.

Yuan Tiangang, who was lying on the ground and still vomiting blood, was picked up by two internal guards and dragged into the underground palace.

Before he had taken a few steps, Wu Zetian came back and said with a smile:

"Wait, there's no rush."

She walked briskly in front of Yuan Tiangang. The two inner guards did not dare to look directly at the emperor and quickly lowered their heads.

Wu Zetian stared at Yuan Tiangang and said:

"Teacher, I forgot to tell you, you don't know the name of the King of Qin I just mentioned, right?"

"His name is Li Cunxi, the eighth son of Duke Huang. In less than four years, I promoted him to the position of King of Qin, Governor of Henan Province, Minister of Fengtai Luan Ge, Prime Minister of the current dynasty, and Jinzi Guanglu Doctor. I also let him be in charge of the Council of State Affairs."

"I'm not saying this to tell you anything else, I just want to tell you, you idiot, that it's not that I can't do it without you. Even if I don't have your help, I still have Huaiying, Chengsi, Jianzhi and this kid to help me."

"You will die here in this life."

Yuan Tiangang's originally depressed mood suddenly became cheerful after Wu Zetian finished speaking.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he fell to his knees with a thud.

"His Majesty!"

"Your servant Yuan Tiangang knows I was wrong!"

"I am willing to tell you everything about the miraculous things in Luo River, and I have no conditions."

Wu Zetian was stunned for two seconds, looked down at Yuan Tiangang, and felt that it was a little unrealistic.

Has this old man gone crazy because of her stimulation?

Why are you suddenly willing to say it?

This old guy has been holding it in for such a long time, but now he suddenly can't hold it in anymore?

"Your Majesty, I am old and can no longer withstand the torture of Huang Da Ge Ling."

Yuan Tiangang quickly opened his mouth and found a suitable reason for his sudden willingness to tell everything.

"I am nearly a hundred years old, and I am already an old man."

"Even my son died before me. Now, I don't want to die under torture."

Wu Zetian stood with her hands behind her back, a faint smile on her face.

"You don't want to die under torture?"

"Teacher, you are really a strange person."

"You were never afraid of torture before. How could you, a person as daring and evil as you, be afraid of this?"

Yuan Tiangang smiled shyly: "People always change."

"Then bring him in. I want to know what the mysterious secret of Luo River is."

……

Prince Wei's Mansion.

Tonight Wu Chengsi hosted a banquet to entertain Wu Yizong, Prince of Henei.

Li Cunxi was watching a striptease in his mansion. Just when he saw the crucial moment and was about to finish stripping, he was suddenly interrupted by Xuguzi, who said that Wu Chengsi had sent someone to invite him to a banquet. He had no choice but to put on his clothes and come over.

There were only four people at the table, in addition to Wu Chengsi, Wu Yizong and Li Cunxi, there was also Wu Chengsi's eldest son Wu Yanji.

Normally speaking, at a banquet of this level, the lowest-ranking ones are the princes, and Wu Yanji, the prince of Wei, would definitely not be able to come up. However, Wu Chengsi was worried that others would not be able to serve well, so he asked Wu Yanji to come over to pour wine and add fuel to the fire.

"My son, fill your father's cup."

Wu Chengsi had just finished drinking a cup of steaming fruit wine when he asked Wu Yanji to pour him another cup.

"Here I come, father."

On one side of the square table, Wu Yanji, who was kneeling in front of the stove, coughed dryly, stood up with a ladle, and came over to add wine to Wu Chengsi.

Wu Yizong held the cup in his hand, looking very interested.

"Tonight is a beautiful night, so we should get drunk!"

"Come, Emperor Yizong, Cunxi, drink this cup to the full." Wu Chengsi held the cup and looked around.

"it is good."

Li Cunxi raised his glass in response and drank it in one gulp.

Wu Chengsi finished his drink, put down the cup, picked up a piece of side dish, and chewed it for a while.

"Your Majesty has left the palace."

He suddenly opened his mouth and said.

Li Cunxi and Wu Yizong both paused.

This is a sensitive period, and His Majesty left the palace without telling anyone, which may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Where did your Majesty go?" Wu Yizong asked hurriedly.

"I don't know." Wu Chengsi said.

Wu Zetian would not leave the palace easily unless something big happened.

The last time Wu Zetian left the palace late at night and her whereabouts were unknown was during the Huzhou case.

"Your Majesty's departure from the palace is not good news for us."

"Yan Hao is still in the Western Regions, the Liangzhou case has not yet been concluded, and the Luzhou case is still under investigation. I just hope that Your Majesty will leave the palace, not for these two cases."

Wu Yizong stroked his beard, but could not hide the sadness on his brow.

Wu Yanhao is his favorite nephew, and he would be really heartbroken if anything happened to him.

"No matter what the reason is, we have to be on guard against Wu Sansi."

Li Cunxi put down his wine glass and told the most important part.

Prince Wu Sansi of Liang had been eyeing the throne covetously. No one knew what kind of love potion the emperor had given him, but even after such a blow, he still couldn't forget about the throne.
