Li Qianli's mansion is much smaller than the Panzhou City Thorn Mansion, after all, this is Luoyang, the divine capital of every inch of land. It's small, but it's a little crowded with so many people.

After walking around the courtyard for a while, Xie Yunxuan and Feng Man walked side by side, and when they saw the two of them, Lu Xiaoxian stopped.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxian, Feng Man's face changed, and he hurriedly turned around and left without saying hello. Looking at Feng Man's back, Lu Xiaoxian felt a sour feeling in his heart.

At the beginning, Lu Xiaoxian contacted Feng Man just because he made a bet with Xie Yunxuan. After a long period of contact, I gradually have feelings. He has to admit that people are really cheap sometimes, and when they are together every day, they don't feel too much, but once they leave, they always feel that they can't forget.

"Senior Brother Lu!" A faint smile appeared on Xie Yunxuan's face, "Fortunately, I have completed the things you have confessed, and it is time for you to fulfill your promise!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian also smiled: "No problem, you say, how do we have a competition?" ”

"How to compete, I can't decide until I go back and report to my teacher, you just have to wait. Tomorrow I will set off, at least half a month, more than a month, I will come to find you, and then it will be time for us to compete! ”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded: "I'm waiting for you!" ”

……

Li Qianli and Murong Zhen stood at the door of the Ming Hall, waiting for His Majesty's summons.

The total height of the Ming Hall is 294 feet, the radius is 300 zhang, and there are three floors in total. The lower layer is four times according to the law, and each has its own color; Twelve hours in the middle layer; On the top floor are nine dragons holding a large disc with an iron phoenix about one zhang high. The appearance of the iron phoenix is decorated with gold, and when viewed from a distance, it shines and shocks.

Looking at the majestic Mingtang in front of him, Li Qianli couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Wu Zetian, this woman is amazing.

Not to mention how she sat on the emperor's throne for the time being, her courage can be seen just by her efforts to build the Ming Hall against public opinion. A building of this magnificence was built in just over 300 days.

The Ming Hall was very quiet, and only Shangguan Wan'er accompanied Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian drank alone and thought about his thoughts, and the lotus wine in the white jade pot was drunk, and she Shangguan Wan'er said, "Let them come in!" ”

Of course, Shangguan Wan'er knew who Wu Zetian was talking about, so she put down a scroll of expressions, picked up the copper rod, and gently knocked on the jade plate.

A deacon eunuch walked in, and Shangguan Wan'er said softly: "Xuanli Qianli and his wife have come to see Your Majesty!" ”

Li Qianli and Murong Zhen bowed in front of Wu Zetian, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Sitting on the emperor's throne, Li Qianli did not dare to underestimate this woman at all, and even he was extremely afraid in his heart, just because he was a member of the clan surnamed Li. After Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he successively killed Li Chong, the evil king of Lang, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, Li Lingkui, the king of Lu, Li Shu, the prince of Huang Guo, Li Rong, the prince of Dongguan County, Princess Changle and other clans, and his cronies were all executed. The Li clan of the Tang Dynasty was simply slaughtered, and all the young survivors were exiled to the south of the Lingnan, and hundreds of officials who had connections with these princes were killed. Except for Wu Zetian, the descendant of Li Tang, there are not a few other Li clan relatives left.

Wu Zetian was condescending, looking at Li Qianli and Murong Zhen who were kneeling below, and did not speak, and there was silence in the hall.

Back then, the eldest grandson Wuji supported Li Zhi to ascend the throne, and in order to deter the group of high-ranking and impatient people in the clan, he specially picked two big heads to come out to kill chickens and monkeys. And these two unfortunate ones hit the muzzle, one is Li Yuanjing, the eldest son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, and the other is Li Ke, the eldest son of Tang Taizong Li Shimin.

Li Yuanjing is innocent of death, because Princess Gaoyang and others tried to rebel in order to support him to ascend the throne; And Li Ke can be regarded as innocently implicated, because Li Ke is neither the object of support, nor does he participate in the rebellion. It's just that because Li Ke is the eldest son of Tang Taizong, such a generation is second only to the imperial uncle Li Yuanjing in the clan, which is a tragedy.

The eldest grandson Wuji implicated Li Ke and executed him through the "Fang Widow Rebellion Case". Because of this, Li Ke cursed the eldest grandson before he died.

"Let's get flat!" Wu Zetian finally spoke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Qianli and Murong Zhen felt stiff and stood up from the ground.

"Lingnan counterinsurgency, you did a good job!" Although Wu Zetian's voice was not loud, it was very majestic, "The snake-headed money turtle you offered is also a great auspicious rui, tell me, how should I reward you?" ”

Li Qianli offered auspicious rui to please Wu Zetian, but Wu Zetian asked him innocently, how dare he say what he thought in his heart, and hurriedly said: "As long as Your Majesty is healthy, the minister is willing to go to the soup and fire, and does not want any reward!" ”

Wu Zetian was very satisfied with Li Qianli's attitude, she nodded and said, "That's it!" Li Rong was demoted for his crimes, and his title was originally inherited from your father, so now it's up to you to attack it! ”

7 years after Li Ke's death, Li Zhi posthumously crowned Li Ke as the king of Yulin County from Yipin, although it was two grades lower than the original Prince of Zhengyipin, but it can be regarded as having a title to leave to his children and grandchildren. It's just that after Li Ke's death, his four sons were exiled to Lingnan, so the successor to Li Ke Xianghuo and the Marquis of Yulin County was Li Rong, the grandson of Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, who had nothing to do with it. Now it happens that Li Rong has been demoted for his crimes, and Li Qianli, as Li Ke's eldest son, has only got the opportunity to inherit back to this Yulin County Marquis from Sanpin.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Qianli and his wife hurriedly bowed to thank him.

"Alright, stand down!" Wu Zetian waved his hand to Shangguan Wan'er, "You send them for me!" ”

After leaving the door of Mingtang, Li Qianli found that the back of his clothes was all soaked.

He breathed a deep sigh of relief, and then heard Shangguan Wan'er's voice behind him: "Lord Li really has face, these days, Your Majesty has received many courtiers every day, and you are the first one who wants me to send it for her!" ”

"There are people who have to work on the officials!" Li Qianli seemed to remember something, and hurriedly took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Shangguan Wan'er, "Please smile!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er thought that Li Qianli was sending a silver ticket, and waved her hand and said, "I'm not interested in silver, you better keep it for yourself!" ”

Li Qianli said a little mysteriously: "Shangguan Sheren rest assured, how can I give you a silver ticket, wouldn't that stain your hands, you better take a look!" ”

Shangguan Wan glanced at Li Qianli suspiciously, and opened the envelope.

After reading it, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but say: "Good poetry, really good poetry, such a first-class masterpiece, I will keep it!" ”

Li Qianli waved to the official: "Then the next official will leave!" ”

"Wait! Lee-sama! Shangguan Wan'er stopped Li Qianli, "I don't know who made this poem?" ”

"This ......" Li Qianli was a little hesitant, should he tell Shangguan Wan'er truthfully.

Shangguan Wan saw Li Qianli's hesitation, and she smiled: "I'm just curious, if Master Li has any difficulties, then I didn't ask." ”

Gift-giving is to win the favor of the other party, if the other party is disgusted, wouldn't it lose the meaning of gift-giving?

Thinking of this, Li Qianli said to Shangguan Wan'er: "This poem was made by a subordinate in my mansion, which makes you laugh!" ”

"What did the people in your house do?" Li Qianli's answer surprised Shangguan Wan, and she asked, "Lord Li, can you tell me what is the name of this person?" ”

"His name is Lu Xiaoxian!"

"Lu Xiaoxian! Lu Xiaoxian! Shangguan Wan silently read twice, and then smiled at Li Qianli, "If I have a chance, I will definitely meet this subordinate in your mansion!" ”
