Chapter 225: It's You Again, the Thief

No, Lanyuan is not empty, there seems to be a person, a woman there. The woman is not wearing night clothes, but in a palace outfit, graceful figure, wandering in the courtyard of Lanyuan. Her figure is lonely, her expression is cold, and she occasionally makes sobs.

This woman is no one else, she is Shangguan Wan'er, the most talented woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Originally, Shangguan Wan'er didn't mind whether Zhang Lin was serving or not, because the latter was worshipped in the harem, and serving as a bed was a matter of course. However, last time they made a verbal agreement in Lanyuan to leave the Great Zhou and go to other countries to stay with each other. Although both sides thought it was not realistic at the time and did not take it seriously, she still hoped that she could abide by each other and wait for each other. When the time was right one day, she would both leave the palace, escape from the Shendu, and fly away.

The words were still in my ears, and the scene was vivid in my mind, but the man had already surrendered to the emperor's power and betrayed her. Although the betrayal was a bit far-fetched, Shangguan Wan'er still thought so in her heart!

She was unhappy, conflicted, entangled, and painful! She came to Lanyuan without realizing it.

However, the building is empty, with only the sound of frogs and insects proclaiming the silence and tranquility here.

She wandered around Lanyuan for a long time, remembering the scene that passed away like flowing water.

By the bed where she once hugged Zhang Lin, she threw down a few lines of tears, and in the room she had once hidden, she lingered back and forth.

As soon as she entered the imperial sect, Lin Lang was a passerby from now on! This is a true portrayal of her sad mood at this moment.

Li Zitang didn't know this woman, but felt that her back was familiar. After a while, she seemed to remember it. Could it be that the woman in black whom she met on the beam of the abandoned palace that night?

"Who?" Shangguan Wan'er suddenly felt the hairs standing upside down behind her back. She keenly sensed that someone was peeping behind her. She suddenly turned around and quickly picked up a self-defense sword in her hand, glanced at Li Zitang's hiding place with a bright and sharp gaze, and walked over.

Li Zitang was shocked and said in his heart that this woman was so alert, it was very rare! She moved and hid in another more hidden place.

Shangguan Wan'er didn't notice anything. After shed a few drops of tears, she hurriedly left Lanyuan because she came here to pay tribute to her past past kindness and was extremely secretive and should not be known to others. If the emperor knew about it, she might be confined again.

However, Shangguan Wan'er didn't know that all her whereabouts were seen by Li Zitang! Li Zitang followed him all the way and came to Shanggong Bureau. Only then did he realize that the woman who made him restless was Shangguan Wan'er, a talented woman who was famous all over the world!

"Why did Shangguan Wan'er cry in Lanyuan? Could it be that she secretly likes Zhang Lin? Or was she unfaithed by the latter? It seems that Zhang Lin can't keep this guy!" Li Zitang said to himself, and a strong murderous aura appeared in his eyes inadvertently, all of which were aimed at Zhang Lin.

"Where is that guy Zhang Lin living?" Next to a rockery, Li Zitang caught an eunuch, put his sword around the latter's neck, and shouted in a low voice.

"Suppose you are the hero, Zhang Lin is in Zhengyang Palace." The eunuch was frightened and said hurriedly.

"Where is Zhengyang Palace?"

"In that direction." The eunuch quickly pointed out the direction for Li Zitang.

Bang~

Li Zitang raised his hand and knocked the eunuch out, then he lies in the snake and turtle, and the rabbit and falcon fall, and kills him towards Zhengyang Palace.

~~~

That night, the emperor arrived at Zhengyang Palace.

Between the pillows and mats, Wu Zetian talked about everything. When talking about the bleak scene of the morning court, she couldn't help but feel annoyed and asked Lin Baby to help analyze.

"Li Zhaode is demonstrating to you, showing his existence and his importance." Zhang Lin analyzed.

"Did he protest after catching his painful foot?" Wu Zetian said with a frown.

"No, if he was caught with his painful foot, he would not protest in this way, but would protest in court, or would directly respond silently. Now is this protest, but a provocation, testing the bottom line of the emperor's sister!"

"Baby Lin, what should I do?"

"Watch the changes, and at the same time, I will try to catch a few ministers who are closer to him." Zhang Lin thought for a while and said calmly.

Before, when he first conspired with Ye Yu and Huang Shengyan, Zhang Lin was still worried. Although the person he chose to purify belonged to Li Zhaode's group, he was very important and was insignificant. Fortunately, it was just a shocking and not a key point. Now, his relationship with Wu Zetian is so close that he can talk about everything, so his second and third fires must be upgraded, and the people he captured must be at the same level.

Now, he let go of his restraints, his hands and feet, his courage, and his concerns! As long as he does not touch Li Zhaode's core interests and prompts the latter to visit immediately and openly, he will have nothing he dared to do!

An action that was about to shock the capital was finalized between the pillows and mats.

Immediately, Wu Zetian talked about the missing 200,000 stones of grain and 100,000 taels of silver, the floods and disasters encountered by the people of Jiangzhou, the emptiness of the national treasury, and asked Lin Baobao if there was a way to enrich the national treasury to save the suffering people in Jiangzhou and improve the welfare of the people of Dazhou.

Zhang Lin said that there are ways to enrich the treasury, but it takes time. He will formulate a set of effective plans. If he wants to gather money immediately, there is only one way: to mobilize his subjects to pay donations.

Considering that he was in the harem and had no place to use gold and silver, Zhang Lin set an example and set an example, proactively proposed to donate 800 taels of gold to aid refugees in Jiangzhou.

Wu Zetian was overjoyed, and his views on Lin Baby changed again, and his pampering also increased to a new level.

"There is an assassin!" At this moment, outside the bedroom, the eunuch Wu Chang, in front of the imperial palace, jumped onto the top of the palace and found a black shadow rising and falling on the roof, leaping quickly towards the distance.

The black shadow was naturally Li Zitang. He learned about Zhang Lin's new residence and intended to kill him. One was to avenge Li Zhaode and the other was to relieve Shangguan Wan'er's hatred. Unexpectedly, the defense near Zhengyang Palace was tighter than anywhere in the entire palace. Before he could get close, he just looked at him from a distance and was discovered, so he quickly fled.

"Don't go~" Wu Chang's body was like lightning, and he immediately followed Li Zitang. When the whisk swung, the force in his hand turned into a strong energy, spreading to the dust tail of the whisk, as if it could tear the void and rush towards Li Zitang's feet in front.

Li Zitang was shocked and hurriedly jumped up more than ten feet high, made a side flip in the air, and landed on the roof several feet away. When he saw clearly that the old eunuch Wu Chang was attacking him, Li Zitang was furious: "It's you again!"

"It's you again! Take your life!" Wu Chang's face, who was usually happy and angry, became extremely ugly. The whisk in his hand raised, carrying an extremely powerful energy, and like sweeping thousands of troops, lifting up pieces of glazed tiles and smashing Li Zitang's body.

For eunuchs, he can scold him anything and he won’t get angry, but don’t call him a eunuch, because this makes them feel heartbroken.

Li Zi Tang Wu used the sword in her hand to resist the whisk energy, smashed the pieces of glass tiles flying over, then pulled away, jumped down from the top of the palace, and shouted sarcastically:

"I won't be playing with you, a castrator, and I'll leave!"

"You meet our house today and can't leave!" Wu Chang chased after him.

"Swoosh swish swish swish~"

When Wu Chang was about to jump down, Li Zitang, who had already landed on the ground, swung his backhand, and three plum blossom needles formed a font to attack Wu Chang's three key points.

Wu Chang's pupils suddenly contracted, and his body paused abruptly in the air. The whisk in his hand swung quickly like a snake's head, rolled up three plum blossom needles, and then swung them, reflecting towards Li Zitang's back.

Li Zitang frowned, and his body accelerated, like a cheetah rushing forward suddenly, brushing and brushing, the plum blossom needle shot at the point where he landed before.

"This eunuch is really amazing!"

Li Zitang was not here to compete with Wu Chang, but was responsible for assassinating Zhang Lin and stealing the tiger talisman. He did not dare to fight, and his figure turned into an angry dragon, spreading out at a high speed, running towards the distance.

"Where to go~" Wu Chang shouted and rushed to chase after him.

"Brush ~"

Li Zitang fought and walked away, occasionally turning back and emitting plum blossom needles to block Wu Chang's pace, and finally disappeared in the jungle outside the northwest courtyard wall of the palace.

At this time, a masked man in blue appeared behind a dense tree outside the wall of Zhengyang Palace.
