Anyway, Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong are also her hearts, and she is still a little distressed when she sees the two of them so uncomfortable.

Wu Zetian pretended to be abrupt and said: "It's okay to let the two of you have a long memory, since you can't drink it, can't you drink less with him next time!" ”

Who knew that Zhang Yizhi sneered: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, every time I drink with him, the minister and Liulang also think that they must drink less next time." But every time the scar is healed and the pain is forgotten, and somehow, as long as I sit on the table with him, I can't help but drink too much. ”

Zhang Changzong also nodded and agreed: "What Wulang said is that since the two brothers entered the palace, except for Your Majesty, there are very few people who can speak, and this Lu Xiaoxian can be regarded as one." Although he is nominally the housekeeper of the Zhang Mansion, the minister and Gorou have never regarded him as a subordinate, but as a confidant! This wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants, and it is also reasonable! ”

Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian seemed to be thoughtful.

Wu Zetian knew in his heart that what Zhang Yizhi's brothers said was the truth. The two of them are favored by themselves, and although the officials of the court are afraid of them like tigers, they secretly criticize the two, how can anyone have a deep friendship with them. Since the two of them have taken Lu Xiaoxian as a confidant, they can't say anything more.

"What did you talk about?" Wu Zetian changed the subject.

"This ......" Hearing Wu Zetian ask, the Zhang brothers were a little hesitant and didn't know how to answer.

"Say whatever you want, and I won't blame you!" Wu Zetian said angrily.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Yizhi replied: "The minister told Lu Xiaoxian about his and Liulang's hardships, and asked him what to do?" ”

"How did he answer?" Wu Zetian asked.

He said that the status and wealth of the minister and Rokuro were all given by His Majesty, and he did not need to worry about anything else, as long as he served His Majesty well, he did his duty. He also said......" Zhang Yizhi glanced at Wu Zetian cautiously, "Your Majesty, he is a little taboo in what he says, and the minister doesn't dare to say it......"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Wu Zetian's gaze shot straight into Zhang Yizhi's heart.

Zhang Yizhi didn't dare to look at Wu Zetian, lowered his head, and whispered: "He also said that even if His Majesty dies in the future, he will arrange everything for the minister and Liulang, and he will never leave it alone, let the minister and Liulang rest assured!" ”

Wu Zetian listened to it and was silent for a long time.

Zhang Changzong didn't know what Wu Zetian was thinking, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of the two brothers, please forgive Lu Xiaoxian for his false words!" ”

Wu Zetian said lightly: "His words are a little taboo, but they are true, I won't mind." Don't you two believe that I will arrange the two of you in a hundred years? ”

Hearing Wu Zetian say this, the Zhang brothers said in unison: "Of course the minister believes it!" ”

"What else did he say?" Wu Zetian then asked again.

This time, Zhang Yizhi was a little bolder: "He said that no one in the world knows His Majesty's difficulties, and how to make the Li family and the Wu family live in harmony is the most worrying for His Majesty, and he warned the ministers and Liulang, saying that we are deeply favored by Your Majesty, so we should share your Majesty's worries." ”

Shangguan Wan'er and Wu Zetian get along day by day, of course they know Wu Zetian's thoughts.

Lu Xiaoxian's words really spoke to Wu Zetian's heart, and her biggest headache now was this matter.

People all over the world say that parrots and raccoons can't be kept together, but Wu Zetian doesn't

Believe in evil.

In Wu Zetian's view, the "parrot" represents the Wu family, and the "tanuki" represents the Li family, and she wants to try to make the Li family and the Wu family coexist peacefully.

For this reason, Wu Zetian had a tanuki specially trained, so that the tanuki and the parrot stayed in a cage, but they could forget their instinct not to eat the parrot.

finally trained well, so Wu Zetian sent his subordinates to visit.

The first half of the show was a success, but near the end, the tanuki was so hungry and annoyed that he suddenly pounced on the parrot and ate it.

Wu Zetian's move was originally to tell the world that the Li family and the Wu family could coexist peacefully, but unfortunately they fell short in the end.

Hearing Lu Xiaoxian mention this matter, Wu Zetian couldn't help but ask, "How did he ask you to share my worries?" ”

Zhang Yizhi replied: "He said that the King of Wei and the King of Liang represent the Wu family, and the imperial heir and Princess Taiping represent the Li family, and the two sides are equal in power, and they are currently at peace. The minister and Rokuro are deeply favored by His Majesty, and must not lean towards either side. If it is because of the participation of the ministers and Rokuro, either side of Li Wu will sit up, it will definitely ruin His Majesty's great affairs. Therefore, the minister and Liulang only need to serve His Majesty well and not participate in the dispute between Li Wu, which is the biggest worry for His Majesty! ”

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh and closed his eyes.

Shangguan Wan'er felt strange, she was Wu Zetian's confidant, of course she could know her heart disease. But Lu Xiaoxian is just a cloth cloth, and he has not been in Luoyang for such a long time, how did he understand His Majesty's thoughts so accurately.

Wu Zetian has always believed that Di Renjie understands himself best outside the palace. Now it seems that Lu Xiaoxian is not bad at all.

Since ascending the throne, Wu Zetian has been eager to find talents.

Lu Xiaoxian's resourcefulness, courage, literary talent, and human accidents are all superior, and such a talent can't serve the imperial court, which is simply a tyrannical thing.

Thinking of this, Wu Zetian suddenly opened his eyes and asked Zhang Yizhi: "I plan to recruit Lu Xiaoxian into the court and make him a member of the Fengge Pavilion, what does Wulang think?" ”

As soon as Wu Zetian's words came into his ears, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but be stunned.

After Wu Zetian became the emperor, he changed the Zhongshu Province to Fengge, and the Fengge Sheren was the Zhongshu Sheren.

Although the Fengge Sheren is an official rank on the five grades, they are responsible for drafting edicts, taking charge of attendants, proclaiming holy decrees, and participating in the execution of hundreds of officials.

Wu Zetian asked Lu Xiaoxian to serve as the person of the Fengge Pavilion, and he had the courage to reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, which made Shangguan Wan a little sideways.

didn't wait for Zhang Yizhi to speak, but heard Zhang Changzong say on the side: "Your Majesty, in fact, even if you don't say it, the minister and Wulang also thought about promoting him to the court as an official, but he refused!" ”

"Why is that?" Wu Zetian asked strangely.

Zhang Changzong said eloquently: "He said that if you really want to enter the court as an official, you have to follow the rules of officialdom." People in officialdom, they can't help themselves, and after a long time, they will become clay puppets, only promises, just sign and draw, it's a big deal to polish a few words. There are many such examples in the officialdom, if this is the case, His Majesty can't listen to his heartfelt words, the minister and Gorou want to tell him that he can't say what he says in his heart, he can't live his life wantonly, all kinds of harm and no benefit, why bother? ”

Zhang Changzong's retelling of Lu Xiaoxian's words, Wu Zetian would not understand.

Look at the text of the Manchu Dynasty

Wu, isn't it just as Lu Xiaoxian depicted.

"He's right!" A flash of brilliance flashed in Wu Zetian's eyes, "Even I envy him a little freely!" ”

"That's right! Your Majesty! Zhang Changzong added, "For this reason, he also wrote a poem to Mingzhi!" ”

"And made a poem?" Wu Zetian said with great interest, "Recite it and listen to it!" ”

"Horizontally, it is a peak on the side of the ridge, and the height is different from far and near. I don't know the true face of the mountain, only because I am in this mountain. ”

This poem is written by the Song Dynasty writer Su Shi's "Title West Forest Wall", Lu Xiaoxian used his hand to fool the Zhang brothers, but he changed the "Lushan" in the original poem to the "Pishan" in the suburbs of Luoyang.

Especially in the last two sentences of the poem, Lu Xiaoxian expressed his attitude in this way: looking at the mountain from different directions, the reason why there will be different impressions is because "I am in this mountain". In other words, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear, and only by staying away from the imperial court and jumping out of the cover of the imperial court can we fully grasp the correct trend of the situation.

"It's really a good poem!" Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but praise, "The artistic conception is clear, cordial, natural, and intriguing." ”

Wu Zetian had heard Shangguan Wan'er say that Lu Xiaoxian's poetry was above her, and today she can be regarded as a teacher.

Although Lu Xiaoxian's refusal made Wu Zetian somewhat unwilling, she had to admit that what Lu Xiaoxian said made sense.

"That's right, Goro! Can Lu Xiaoxian mention his views on the rebellion in Yingzhou? Wu Zetian asked again.

Zhang Yizhi replied honestly: "He never talked to us about these matters related to the government, just now His Majesty said that he went to Di Ge Lao's mansion early in the morning, presumably he will discuss such a thing with Di Ge Lao!" ”

Wu Zetian nodded, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Wulang, Liulang, being able to become a confidant with Lu Xiaoxian is also a blessing that you cultivated in your previous life, cherish it!" ”

……

As soon as he entered the Di Mansion, Lu Xiaoxian saw Di Guangyuan coming from a distance.

"Di Gongzi, it's been a long time, don't come to harm?" Lu Xiaoxian stepped forward and greeted with a smile.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxian, Di Guangyuan was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face: "It's Lu Gongzi, I can't remember how long we haven't met." ”

Lu Xiaoxian just came to Luoyang, and it happened that Di Renjie was dismissed and was idle at home.

By chance, Lu Xiaoxian met with the father and son of the Di family, and then jointly opened "Autumn Wind Break".

At the beginning, Di Guangyuan was quite critical of Lu Xiaoxian.

After getting along for a long time, the relationship between the two gradually became harmonious.

Nowadays, "Autumn Wind Break" is also famous in Luoyang City.

Thinking of this experience, whether it is Lu Xiaoxian or Di Guangyuan, they all feel that it is a kind of fate.

Lu Xiaoxian has been away from Luoyang for a long time, and when they suddenly met today, Di Guangyuan naturally felt very cordial.

"Is Di Ge here?" Lu Xiaoxian asked.

Di Guangyuan nodded: "Yes!" My father is in the main hall, and I'm talking to Ji Jaefu! ”

"Ji Jae-suke?" Lu Xiaoxian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it Lord Ji?" ”

"Exactly!"

Ji Ji was also a capable minister in the Great Zhou, he participated in the imperial examination in his early years, and moved to Mingtang Lieutenant to Jinshi and the first.

Now, Ji Ji, like Di Renjie, is also the Zaifu of "Tongfeng Pavilion Luantai Ping Zhangshi".
