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

Chapter 52: The cruel official Zhou Xing was arrested!
Just as heaven and man were fighting in Wu Zetian's heart, Yang Yanzhang, the instigator, was a little worried.

These doctors kept playing with his wounds. He originally felt that he was about to recover, but under their repeated tugging, the feeling of healing gradually disappeared.

"It's not that the magical power has failed, am I really going to kill myself?"

But it was hard for him to speak at this time and asked these imperial doctors to stay away.

First, only a few people such as Wang Xiaojie and Wu Zetian saw his injuries, which was not enough to arouse public outrage.
Secondly, given his current injury, even if he didn't let the imperial physician continue to fiddle with it, Wu Zetian would definitely force the imperial physician to continue treating him.

After much thought, Yang Yanzhang decided to continue pretending to be dead.

However, the scene was extremely quiet at this time. Everyone saw Wu Zetian's gloomy and cold face, and felt the coldness radiating from the Queen Mother who held real power. Only the imperial doctors stepped up their actions without a clue.

At this time, a cry from far away suddenly came from outside the palace gate: "Queen Mother! You must seek justice for Yang Yanzhang, you must save him!"

Then, everyone saw Shangguan Wan'er staggering in, kneeling in front of Wu Zetian, and continuing to cry loudly.

Wu Zetian was not angry at this time, and even leaned over to help her up personally.

"Don't worry, I will definitely give him an explanation! The imperial doctor is treating him, so you might as well go to his house and see Yuqing. If Yuqing knows the news but there is no one around, I'm afraid she won't be able to think about it."

Shangguan Wan'er immediately kowtowed hard and made a bang bang bang sound: "If the Queen Mother can do him justice, Wan'er and her sister will definitely serve the Queen Mother for the rest of their lives, and they will make grass rings and hold rings in their mouths to repay this kindness!"

After saying that, Shangguan Wan'er looked at Yang Yanzhang sadly, took a few steps back, turned around and ran out resolutely.

Wu Zetian looked at her back and sighed: "Poor Yuqing, she has finally lived like a human being for 25 years. Who would have expected that she had just married the right husband, but she suffered such changes!"

As he spoke, the chill on his face became a little stronger.

"Wang Xiaojie!"

"Chen is here!"

"Go to the Criminal Department immediately to get Zhou Xing!"

Wang Xiaojie accepted the order, but hesitated to leave.

"What, what else do you do?"

Wang Xiaojie hesitated for a moment, then expressed his confusion: "When I arrived at the Ministry of Punishment, I saw Yang Yanzhang being laid down in a room full of torture instruments. However, in addition to Yang Yanzhang, there was also a Yushitai on the ground to monitor the Yu. Shi Lai Junchen’s body!”

Wu Zetian's eyes narrowed slightly: "Lai Junchen, is he dead?"

Wang Yanzhang nodded: "Exactly. I saw it with my own eyes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it."

Wu Zetian lowered his head and calculated carefully.

"Zhou Xing suddenly summoned Yang Yanzhang in the evening, but Lai Junchen, the censor, was in the Ministry of Punishment! With the virtues of these two people, I am afraid that this matter was suggested by Lai Junchen and executed by Zhou Xing. It was a carefully planned conspiracy. conspiracy!"

"However, Lai Junchen is in the Criminal Department, how could he die?"

Seeing the beaten Yang Yanzhang, Wu Zetian immediately dismissed the speculation in her mind. "Could it be that Zhou Xing's interrogation of Yang Yanzhang failed, so he killed Lai Junchen and put the blame on Yang Yanzhang?"

Thinking of this, Wu Zetian suddenly narrowed her eyes, and her heart was extremely angry. She wished she could catch Zhou Xing immediately and crush him to ashes.

At this time, Princess Taiping also came out with several palace maids. Seeing several imperial doctors surrounding a bloody man, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Mother, who is this? Who is this ignorant person who carried someone into the palace in the middle of the night?"

Wu Zetian was furious: "You bastard! This is Yang Yanzhang, the imperial censor! If you don't want to see it, you can get out of Shangyang Palace immediately!"

Princess Taiping had always been close to Wu Zetian and her daughter, and they had similar personalities. She did not expect that she would be scolded in front of so many people, and she was immediately stunned.

But she immediately pointed to the bloody man on the ground in disbelief: "Mother, is this really Yang Yanzhang?"

Wu Zetian was not in the mood to talk to her at this time, but Li Dan gave his sister a look of affirmation.

Princess Taiping was startled: "Who is this blind person who dares to attack him? Didn't Yang Yanzhang just frighten the Tibetan envoys a few days ago? I heard that the Western Regions are much more peaceful these days, and the Tubo people are very honest! Such a great hero , who dares to move?"

But Zhou Xing was Wu Zetian's man, and no one dared to say it. Even Li Dan looked away and did not dare to answer the question.

"Mother! My son, please give me orders and I am willing to lead people to investigate this matter and give Yang Yanzhang justice!"

Wu Zetian sighed: "I have ordered Wang Xiaojie to handle this matter. Please be patient! Yang Yanzhang is a person whom I value highly. If something like this happens to him, I will naturally not be able to do anything about it." Of!"

These words seemed to be addressed to Princess Taiping, but in fact they were addressed to everyone present. They not only warned everyone not to make any small moves against Yang Yanzhang, but also used their words to let the world know that she, Wu Zetian, was not blindly shielding the eagle and dog. of.

Not long after, Wang Xiaojie brought Zhou Xing over. When Zhou Xing saw Wu Zetian, he immediately saw hope!

"Queen Mother! Queen Mother, save me!"

Wu Zetian asked coldly: "Zhou Xing, why do I want to save you? Who gave you the right to arrest people from Yushitai without authorization? Who gave you the courage to treat Yang Yanzhang like this? In the end, is this city of Luoyang the capital of this city? Is it your minister of justice, Zhou Xing, who is in charge of the imperial palace?"

Zhou Xing kept kowtowing: "It's the Queen Mother, of course she is the Queen Mother!"

"Then why did you detain and interrogate Yang Yanzhang without authorization?"

week

Unexpectedly, Princess Taiping sternly scolded: "Mother, he is talking nonsense! If he is afraid of Junchen, a small supervisory censor, why is he not afraid of the dignified censor Zhongcheng and dares to attack Yang Yanzhang?"

Wu Zetian suddenly showed murderous intent: "Zhou Xing! Do you still dare to deceive me in front of me? I can ask someone to kill you now!"

But Zhou Xing knew that he had no way to survive other than to blame Lai Junchen for his death, so he immediately shouted loudly: "The Queen Mother Mingjian! Yang Yushi is an upright person and will not abuse his power to vent his personal anger, but Lai Junchen is different! Lai Junchen , is a complete villain! He has the power to supervise all officials. If I don’t act according to his wishes, I will be impeached by him tomorrow!"

"If you act upright, how can you be afraid of his impeachment?" Li Dan couldn't help but say.

But Zhou Xing couldn't tell the pain in his heart. The shameful errands he ran were all under Wu Zetian's explicit or covert instruction or tacit approval!

Being impeached by Lai Junchen means that those things will be brought to light. When the time comes, Wu Zetian will not be able to clear up the relationship by killing the donkey?
