With this thought in mind, Wu Zetian directly threw this question to Yang Jian.
"Prime minister, how do you think we should deal with this matter?”
"Should we summon the King of Yan back to the capital to cooperate with the investigation?”
Yang Jian was not surprised at all.
He seemed to have expected that she would throw the question to him.
He had long thought of a countermeasure.
"Empress Dowager, since we have evidence, we must investigate. Otherwise, it will be difficult to shut Youyou up.”
"But this is related to the royal family after all. Even if we want to investigate, it's not something outsiders like us can interfere with.”
"I suggest that the King of Qin investigate this matter.”
Li Shiming was stunned by Yang Jian's words.
He did not expect that this matter would actually fall on his head.
Last time, he suffered a loss at Wu Zetian's hands.
He had learned to be smart.
He knew how to endure and not be the first to stand out.
Therefore, he was quite honest during this period of time.
However, she never expected that this person would be sitting at home and the pot would fall from the sky.
This was not a good job.
If they really found out that the Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, was up to no good…
Then Zhu Di might even be known as the " clean-off-the-king ".
He would become the number one target.
Then his reputation would be ruined.
However, if he said that Zhu Di had no ulterior motives after his investigation, it would undoubtedly anger Zhao Kuangyin.
At that time, if any problems arose on Zhu Di's side.
She would become Zhu Di's accomplice and cover for him.
Of course, there was another possibility.
That was, Zhu Di was indeed innocent and had no ulterior motives.
However, was this possible?
At this moment, Zhu Di.
It had become an existence that listened to the tune but did not listen to the propaganda.
Someone like that.
How could he not have any thoughts?
It could be said.
If he accepted this mission to investigate...
Regardless of whether they could find anything. That would be very disadvantageous to him.
After understanding this point.
Li Shi Min's expression was a bit ugly.
He looked at Yang Jian.
Their gazes became much sharper.
"This Yang Jian is really going against this king everywhere.”
"A matter that originally had nothing to do with this king can actually be pushed to this king?”
"This old man is really detestable.”
Li Shi Min couldn't help but feel hatred in his heart.
At the same time, he was very clear in his heart.
Why would Yang Jian target him like this?
It was because his Heavenly Policy Manor had the right to open its own residence.
It was equivalent to a country within a country.
His own troops were completely out of Yang Jian's control.
It was equivalent to a certain amount of authority being split from Yang Jian's hands.
That was why he deliberately wanted to bring her down.
"This king is still young, and there are still many things I don't understand. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for people to convince me.”
"Your Majesty, please send a wise man."
Li Shi Min said with grievance.
In the past, he hated it when people said he was too young.
But now.
He had no choice but to take the initiative to express that he was still young and could not take on such a great responsibility.
One could imagine.
Yang Jian's knife had made him so angry.
Yang Jian was actually targeting Li Shiming.
Lee Zheng was also a little surprised.
Why did Yang Jian suddenly find trouble with Li Shiming?
But very quickly.
Lee Zheng thought through all the details.
He could not help but sigh in his heart.
"The previous emperor was definitely a master of power.”
"I finally understand now."
"Zhu Di was used to restrain Zhao Kuangyin.”
"Li Shi Min is a nail in Yang Jian's eyes.”
"This Art of Balance is indeed good.”
"It's a pity that the previous emperor's health wasn't too good, which was why Wu Zetian ascended the throne.”
"Otherwise, these people really wouldn't be able to jump up.”
"After all, they hadn't grown up at that time. The former emperor wasn't afraid of them causing trouble.”
"Unfortunately, I don't have the prestige of the previous emperor. I can't suppress them.”
Lee Zheng's sigh did not last long.
Then, he began to seriously think about a problem.
That was…
Was he really going to attack Zhu Di now?
The previous emperor had created the current situation.
It was nothing more than to maintain balance and maintain the stability of the imperial power.
If anything happened to one of them.
This balance would be completely broken. Things would develop in an unpredictable direction.
Just as he was thinking about this.
The selection box, which had been silent for a long time, appeared again.
Option 1: Conceal Zhu Di. Zhu Di's secret was exposed, but he was his uncle. Of course, he chose to forgive him and was rewarded with a lucky draw.
Option 2: Fight within the same room. If a prince breaks the law, he will be punished with the same crime as the common people. Supporting the investigation of the King of Yan, Zhu Di, will be rewarded with one lucky draw.
Looking at these two choices.
Lee Zheng, who had been speaking up for Zhu Di previously.
He chose option two without hesitation.
He naturally knew.
If they really attacked Zhu Di, it would only make the situation more and more chaotic.
But this was the result he wanted.
It only became more and more chaotic.
Only then would he be able to pull chestnuts from the fire.
As for the unrest that would be caused, many would die.
The current Lee Zheng.
He had also learned a little from them.
As a mature politician.
One had to be ruthless.
As long as he could consolidate his power, what was a little fashion?
After making the decision.
Lee Zheng didn't choose to draw the lottery immediately.
Instead, he looked at Wu Zetian.
"Mother, the King of Yan is definitely innocent.”
"And my second brother has always been wise and mighty. I believe he can also prove Imperial Uncle's innocence.”
"Why don't we let Second Brother take a look?”
Wu Zetian couldn't help but frown.
According to her thoughts.
For now.
He should first maintain stability.
It wouldn't be too late to deal with them one by one when his forces expanded a little.
After all, she now had the right to listen to politics behind the scenes.
Their power would only grow.
However, she knew very well in her heart.
Everything would not go according to his expectations.
This time, Zhao Kuangyin was going to make Zhu Di his target.
It was a counterattack against him.
