Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 25 So you call this martial arts?
Wu Zetian did not keep the two of them waiting for a long time, and only for a few moments, the palace maid let them in.

However, this time, Wu Zetian was behind the screen and could not even see her outline. It was completely different from the previous two times when Yang Yanzhang came here.

"Wang Xiaojie, why did you enter the palace late at night? Could it be related to the loud noise just now?"

Wang Xiaojie was stunned: "How did the Queen Mother know?"

This honest voice made Wu Zetian couldn't help but pretend to be cool: "Hmph, what can happen that can escape my eyes and ears?"

Wang Xiaojie immediately nodded with great admiration: "That's right, Queen Mother, I am in a hurry to enter the palace for this very reason!"

"Oh? Then have you found out who did it?"

Wang Xiaojie immediately laughed: "It's none other than Yang Yanzhang, the imperial censor!"

Wu Zetian was silent for a while, and then asked in surprise: "Yang Yanzhang, is this the artifact you want to dedicate to me?"

"No, what kind of artifact is this? It's just something I made for the Queen Mother to play with at the Ministry of Works."

In fact, Yang Yanzhang originally meant that this blunderbuss was not very powerful and was really just a toy compared to a cannon.

But Wu Zetian immediately asked him to take a look at the things with great interest.

"Queen Mother, this is it."

Yang Yanzhang said and handed out a bright yellow stick. The palace maid was about to take it, but she was stunned on the spot, and then her face turned red with embarrassment. She didn't even dare to look at it, let alone taking it.

"What's going on?" Yang Yanzhang was a little confused.

"The Queen Mother, Yang Yushi, Yang Yushi is a frivolous servant!" The blushing palace maid suddenly cried, and even complained!
"Hey, don't be like this. Why am I so frivolous? Don't frame a good person!" Yang Yanzhang was anxious at that time. He really didn't do anything and didn't even look at it!
Wu Zetian's voice suddenly revealed dissatisfaction: "Don't cry, tell me, why did he despise you?"

"Queen Mother, look at the huge thing he took! This is clearly..." The palace maid suddenly covered her face and ran out quickly.

"Useless maid, if you don't bring it in, how will I know what it is?"

Wu Zetian complained and called another maid out.

This time, the palace maid did not say that Yang Yanzhang was frivolous towards her, but she held out two fingers with a look of disgust, intending to pinch the blunderbuss between her slender jade fingers.

However, her fingers were really slender. After trying it a few times, she had no choice but to hold it with both hands and lift it up, lowering her head and hurried back behind the screen.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of Wu Zetian gasping!

"hiss……"

Accompanied by the sound of gasping, Wu Zetian yelled in a panic: "Wang Xiaojie, you go down first. If you have anything to do, talk to me in the morning!"

Wang Xiaojie is an honest man. He still hasn't figured out what happened. When he heard Wu Zetian asked him to step back, he couldn't help but become anxious!

"Queen Mother! I haven't said anything yet!"

"This one created by Yang Yushi, this one, well, what is it called, brother? I forgot!" "Fire gun, General Wang."

"Ah, yes, fire blunderbuss! Queen Mother, the sound of these fire blunderbuss is terrifying. If we can make more and equip them in the army, then when the barbarians come to invade, we only need to ring it and it will immediately scare the barbarians' horses. Chaos breaks out! I think it’s not an exaggeration to call this thing an important weapon of the country!”

"Well, okay, I know! Now, please step down!" Wu Zetian's voice was still trembling, as if she was panicked, but also seemed very excited.

But her urging made Wang Xiaojie even more persistent: "Your Majesty, I still have something to report!"

"You!! I told you to wait until tomorrow!" Wu Zetian was obviously angry!

But Wang Xiaojie obviously did not panic: "Queen Mother, I will be done with just a few words! That's it, Yang Yushi's martial arts is actually better than me! I think that leaving Yang Yushi in the Yushitai is really overestimating his talents. Nowadays, the West The Turks in the north and north of Tibet are all active, and we need a strong man like Yang Yushi to lead the army to conquer the enemy! With both wisdom and courage, he will definitely be able to wipe out the barbarians!"

Wu Zetian fell silent again this time.

Wang Xiaojie felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he slapped Yang Yanzhang and said sincerely: "Yang Yushi, that's all I can do for you. You have to walk step by step on your own! I’ll take the first step, you behave well!”

After saying that, Wang Xiaojie, who exposed Yang Yanzhang's secret, really slipped away with oil on his feet.

After a long time, Wu Zetian's voice sounded again: "Yang Yanzhang, you lied to me."

Yang Yanzhang broke out in a cold sweat at that time.

When he entered the palace for the first time, he told Wu Zetian that he did not know martial arts. Only a few days later, this was exposed!

Wu Zetian was just one step away from ascending the throne. She was already half-emperor. To deceive her would be to deceive the emperor...

After swallowing hard, Yang Yanzhang's brain went blank for a while.

For some reason, he who once risked his life to contradict Wu Zetian was now panicking!
But the problem of deceiving the emperor must not be admitted. If admitted, the consequences will be serious.

"Queen Mother, when did I deceive you? I don't understand."

Wu Zetian said angrily: "The first time you came here, I threw a pillow at you, and you caught it without raising your head. What did you say at that time, have you forgotten? I remembered it for you. You said that you were poor since you were young. , people often took things and threw them away, so I developed this skill! Not only did I believe you at that time, I also felt that you were quite pitiful! Now!!"

Wu Zetian gritted her teeth and then continued: "Now I know that you are really good at martial arts. You dared to lie the first time you met me!"

Yang Yanzhang was sweating, thinking, why does this old witch have such a good memory?In this case, wouldn't it be impossible to fool him?
In desperation, Yang Yanzhang started to talk nonsense: "So, this is called martial arts? Oh, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding, Queen Mother!"

He made such a trick, which made Wu Zetian look confused: "This is called martial arts? Misunderstanding? Yang Yanzhang, what other tricks are you doing?"

Seeing the drama, Yang Yanzhang immediately said seriously: "The Queen Mother doesn't know that when I was a child, I met a wandering monk. He was half-dead from hunger, so I gave him half a steamed bun. Who knew that the monk later insisted on giving me a set to strengthen his health? The art of physical fitness. I always thought it was the art of strengthening the body, but who knew, it was the legendary martial arts! If the queen mother hadn’t reminded me, I would have thought that this skill was slowly developed after being bullied!"

Wu Zetian was stunned when she heard this: "Yang Yanzhang, do you believe this nonsense?"

Yang Yanzhang spread his hands: "Whether the Queen Mother believes it or not, I have told you everything I know! If the Queen Mother doesn't believe it, then kill me! I'm afraid I won't be able to build the divine weapon that governs the country!"

Wu Zetian felt itchy at the base of her teeth. She was [-]% sure that Yang Yanzhang was talking nonsense. But the problem was that if there was a magic weapon to control the country, it would be of great help to her future ascension to the throne!
