Li Zhi rode his horse back to the rear palace.
He realized that many palace maids and eunuchs looked at him differently and became very vigilant. This made Li Zhi feel as if he was being watched by countless people.
"The news in the imperial palace is really fast!”Li Zhi smiled. He knew that his performance in the imperial court had already spread to the harem.
This made the people that the eighth empress had planted around her become especially vigilant.
......
In the Purple Palace Hall, Wu Zetian flew into a rage. As she walked, she kicked over the vases in the hall.
"Too impudent, simply too impudent. Investigate for me. Someone must be teaching him behind his back. You must find this person!”
The ministers behind her were all silent and submissive.
"Yes, Your Majesty. We also believe that the current emperor does not have such courage. Not only did he contradict Your Majesty, but he also conspired with others and played politics. Indeed, there should be an expert guiding him behind the scenes!”Zhou Xing cupped his hands and said in fear.
Wu Zetian swung her loose sleeves and sat on a dragon throne. That's right, it was a dragon throne carved with a real dragon.
This kind of chair could only be used by the emperor, but now Wu Zetian was sitting on it very calmly.
She took the wine from the servant girl and drank it in one gulp.
Today's court session was supposed to be the time for her to fully harvest Lu Zhi's left and right arms. The Supreme Court, Ministry of War, and Ministry of Justice were already prepared. They were just waiting for Shangguan Wan 'er to ignite this fuse and then take down Lu Zhi's two brothers.
From then on, he would be in charge of coining and forging weapons.
It was only a matter of time before he ascended the throne.
However, he did not expect Li Zhi to give him a show of strength. First, Zhou Xing was directly declared guilty and had to carry out his duty. Then, his confidant Gao Lishi had become the key person who had sued the eight Empresses alone for no reason, becoming Li Zhi's scapegoat.
Wu Zetian couldn't believe that Li Zhi was the one who did all this.
.....
In Changle Palace, Lu Zhi was also furious.
Today, Li Zhi was too abnormal. He actually took over the crimes of his two brothers. Li Zhi was simply tired of living.
Didn't he know that he was only alive because of the kindness of the Empresses?
"Quickly find out who secretly instructed Li Zhi. He is so confident today. He must have the support of other empresses. Otherwise, Li Zhi has no soldiers and no power. He is completely empty. How can he have such confidence!”
The numerous aides and ministers under him were also staring at the floor. They did not dare to raise their heads, much less meet Lu Zhi's sharp gaze.
"Have the people who were sent to kill Diao Chan returned?”Although Lu Zhi had a beautiful face, his face was covered in frost. None of his subordinates dared to admire his beauty.
They knew that this was a vicious dragon. Once they made her unhappy, it would definitely bring disaster to her entire family and even her entire family.
"Go back... You're back!" A eunuch stuttered as he buried his head deep into the ground, not daring to raise it at all.
"Speak!" The word was light, but it made the eunuch feel as if a mountain was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"No, no, no…Not dead!" The eunuch said with a trembling voice. He felt that he could not control his mouth.
" Huh?!" Lu Zhi's black brows bunched together, appearing exceptionally beautiful.
However, just this shout scared the heroes so much that they almost fell to the ground.
"Why?" Lu Zhi said again, his expression much gentler. However, everyone knew that once Empress Lu calmed down, it would be the time when her killing intent was the heaviest.
She had once explained to her subordinates, why should I be angry with a person who is about to die?？
The eunuch was so frightened that he cried. He stammered,"This servant saw with my own eyes that the emperor threw that bag of candied fruit into the lotus pond and was eaten by the fish.”
"Drag him out and feed him to the dogs!" Lu Zhi supported his face with one hand after hearing this. He spoke indifferently as though he was talking about an extremely ordinary trifling matter.
" Please spare my life, Your Majesty. I am loyal to you." The eunuch begged for mercy, but the eunuch quickly pulled him out with a punch.
A long and thin rope was tied around his neck.
Not long after the eunuch was dragged out, he went completely silent.
A few barks came from afar, the sound of dogs barking high pitched and excited.
.......
In Long Autumn palace, Wei Zifu was also extremely frustrated, causing her subordinates to not even dare to breathe loudly.
The conclusion they came to was that Li Zhi had someone backing him up, and there was someone guiding him from behind. They had to investigate thoroughly.
.....
In Ganquan Palace, Mi Yue was depressed and ordered a thorough investigation!
At the same time, he sent a secret letter to his younger brother, Baiqi, asking him to suppress the news in the Jianghuai region. At the same time, he was to speed up the reorganization of the local armed forces. Once there was a change in the capital, he would immediately send a cavalry to help him ascend the throne.
......
In Xingle Palace, Yin Lihua was eccentric. She secretly ordered to investigate all of Li Zhi's movements and must not miss anything.
......
In Changmen Palace, Chen Yuanyuan ordered Li Zhi to be under full surveillance. At the same time, she sent a secret letter to her uncle, Wu Sangui, who was at Shanhaiguan. She asked him to step up his troops and buy more horses from outside the pass in case there were any changes in the court.
.....
Yang Yuhuan of the Celestial Capital Palace and Bao Si of the Blessed Sun Palace also made the decision to investigate the matter.
At the same time, he contacted the soldiers outside and his subordinates in the Imperial Court to be on guard against any minute changes in the capital.
At this stage of the battle, it would be extremely cruel.

Li Zhi returned to his bedroom in the Great Ming Palace.
Diao Chan was especially excited to see Li Zhi return safely.
"Your Majesty, you can come back."
Her pretty face looked like she was about to cry, which was very lovable.
"What? Did someone bully you?”Li Zhi asked warily. He felt around carefully and relaxed after realizing that there was no danger around.
I hope everyone will vote for this little brother and give this little brother some encouragement. Thank you!）
