Lu Zhi was stunned. He did not expect Li Zhi to be so stubborn. He actually threatened to kill him?
But today had already reached the time to shed all pretense of cordiality. Lu Zhi had nothing to hide anymore.
"Hmph, Li Zhi, you sure have big words. Why don't you take a look at the situation inside and outside the Imperial City? As long as I give the order, tens of thousands of troops will move out and chop you into pieces!”Lu Zhi's aura was no longer concealed and was completely released. An absolute empress's demeanor was like a dome that enveloped the surroundings.
"Is that so?" Li Zhi turned around and rushed behind the curtain, wanting to capture Lu Zhi on the spot.
This Lu Zhi was also very alert. She knew that Li Zhi was no longer the same as before. When they were hunting, she already knew that Li Zhi's brute strength was shocking and that he could even shake a cauldron. Thus, Lu Zhi was already prepared. She jumped up and quickly retreated.
These eight queens weren't weak people. Each of them could draw a two-picul bow. They were all proficient in archery and horse martial arts.
And Lu Zhi was an expert among them. Among the eight queens, he was only second to Wu Zetian.
At the same time, the four eunuchs not far behind her charged at Li Zhi with short swords in their hands.
Although Li Zhi's speed was extremely fast, he was helpless. Lu Zhi was already prepared and retreated very quickly.
He looked at the four eunuchs rushing over and shouted angrily,"You're courting death!"
One of the eunuchs stabbed his knife at Li Zhi's mouth. Li Zhi grabbed the other's arm and punched the man's face.
"Bang ~"
With a muffled sound, the eunuch's head exploded from Li Zhi's blow. All kinds of red and white objects splattered everywhere, leaving a mess on the ground.
The other three eunuchs were shocked.
The remaining seven empresses were also pale with fright. Then, under the cover of their respective eunuchs, they retreated.
Facing Li Zhi, who was like a tyrannosaurus, the remaining three eunuchs did not give up resisting and continued to attack Li Zhi.
Li Zhi knew that these people had long been trained to not avoid knives and axes. They were completely fearless death warriors.
Another person stabbed at Li Zhi. Li Zhi dodged slightly and easily dodged the other party's white blade. Then, he punched the other party's Adam's apple.
"Kacha!"
With a crisp sound, the eunuch's neck instantly drooped backward, and his entire body fell to the ground with a bang, losing his vitality.
Li Zhi struck out like lightning, his palm blade swiftly slashing at the necks of the remaining two eunuchs.
With two cracking sounds, the bones on their necks broke and they were quickly killed.
However, when Li Zhi was about to chase after Lu Zhi, she was nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, the royal court was in chaos.
The officials were actually fighting with each other. After all, these officials were from different camps and had long disliked each other. Now that the court was in chaos, they naturally took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.
Fortunately, Di Renjie, Zhang Jianzhi, Yan Song, and the other important ministers were protected by the Dragon Guards, so they didn't suffer any injuries.
Instead, it was the lackeys and ministers of the eighth empress who beat each other up and fought in groups of three to five.
Lv Ze and Lv Shizhi wanted to escape in the chaos, but they were quickly captured by Wei Zhongxian, who commanded the Brocade Guards.
The two of them continued to struggle as if they had lost their parents.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards had all strengthened their bodies with Body Refinement Pills. How could these two people who had been hollowed out by wine and sex compare to them?
In addition, Li Zhi also ordered people to tie up the seven or eight officials who had just wanted to force him to abdicate together with Lu Zhi.
The eight ministers were so scared that their faces turned ashen. They kept shouting, but they knew that it would not end well.
The remaining seven Empresses were about to leave the court, escorted by a group of servants.
Li Zhi said," Seven ladies, today's matter is only related to Lu Zhi. You don't have to worry. However, if anyone dares to collude with Lu Zhi, then don't blame me for being rude."”
Li Zhi said this because he didn't want to be enemies with the eight Empresses at the same time. In that case, even if he could kill the eight Empresses, the world would definitely be in chaos.
The forces they controlled would definitely rise up and attack.
At that time, the Great Tang would be reduced to a chaotic war between warlords.
At that time, the people would be in dire straits, bones would fill the wilderness, children would eat each other, and there would be no rooster crowing for a thousand miles!
This was what Li Zhisuo did not want to see.
Although he wanted to deal with the eighth empress, he wanted to ensure that the situation was relatively stable so that the people would suffer less.
The other seven Empresses were originally stunned and planned to contact the soldiers and take advantage of the chaos.
After hearing Li Zhi's words, he immediately relaxed.
Although Li Zhi was nothing in their eyes, the real problem was that after Li Zhi died, their opponents would become other empresses who were evenly matched.
At that time, the battle would be extremely fierce. It was hard to say how many of them would be able to escape from the capital.
It was very likely that none of them would be able to escape. They would only be making things easier for others and benefiting those relatives.
Wu Zetian calmly said,"We will naturally abide by our duties and help Your Majesty crusade against the rebels to correct the court!”
"That's right. Your Majesty, don't worry. We are not on the same side as Lu Zhi.”Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Your Majesty only needs to deal with the thieves. We will naturally close the palace doors!”
(Dear readers, I'm really sorry. It's too late today. It's mainly because I have a bad cold and my nose is blocked. I'm a little irritable. Please forgive me!)）
