Chapter 777: The Ripe Melons (11)

"Maternity leave? There is no future" Empress Wu raised her eyebrows, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest and sat on the main seat, scolding in a deep voice.

"The minister has no form, Your Majesty forgives the sin" Quan Ce bowed down and pleaded guilty, a little uneasy.

His letter of pretense was just to play sloppy and avoid the errand left behind in Luoyang, and there were not many similar lazy behaviors in the past, but unexpectedly, this time he actually led the Empress Wu out of the Taichu Palace, and personally went to the Blue Blood Dock to ask the teacher for guilt, which was beyond his expectations.

"Hmph, what a formless...... Let's talk about it, what is the idea of taking a leave of absence at this time? Empress Wu glared at him, her gaze a little gloomy.

Quan Ce had calmed down, his thoughts were racing, and he gradually understood the reason why Empress Wu reacted so much.

To use an inappropriate word, this is probably a thief.

Empress Wu allowed Shangguan Wan'er, Wu Sansi and Donggong Wei and others to attack Quan Ce by taking advantage of the marriage of the Lu family's Xieer, intending to beat him and let him suffer some setbacks.

The purpose of the Empress Wu was not completed, and the power of the power policy was weakened, but the prestige was rising, and the prime minister and auxiliary phase were at his fingertips.

At this juncture, there was a sudden incident in the Commerce Mansion, Jinghui, Wang Lu and others were implicated, and Quan Ce himself was also blamed and served as the Luantai squire, skillfully avoiding the position of the first and auxiliary prime minister.

At first, Empress Wu didn't think about it deeply, but afterwards she felt more and more strange, as Princess Yiyang said, Quan Cemust have noticed her own thoughts, so she took the initiative to arrange the incident in the Commerce Mansion, and made the situation more and more in line with her own wishes.

After figuring out this section, Quan Ce was much more relaxed.

Empress Wu came here to see if he was resentful and discouraged.

"Your Majesty, the minister is on leave, there is a reason, Your Majesty moved to Chang'an, Luoyang is bound to have a heavy minister to stay, the minister thought, if you take on the heavy responsibility of staying behind, I am afraid that you will not be able to take care of the Fleur to give birth, in vain Your Majesty's favor and good intentions, simply take a leave, and after Luoyang stays settled, and then return to the court to help" The right strategy is clever and vibrating.

Empress Wu looked at him with a wandering look, looking unconfident, although he was not honest, but he was also vivid and lively, and his heart disease disappeared, he stood up, walked in front of him, and snorted lightly, "Hmph, it sounds good, but it's just to be lazy, what I said is right?" ”

"Uh...... All the words, spoken by His Majesty's mouth, are all right" Quan Ce's breath stagnated, and he used a panacea to relieve himself, and his face was a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha" Empress Wu laughed, stretched out her jade hand, pinched his cheek, and twisted it slightly, "Little thing, I've been slaughtering for a long time, and my face is getting thicker and thicker."

His eyes gradually softened, his steps took another step forward, and he stood with his neck crossed, his hand movements turned to a light stroke, and he said softly, "You are loyal and pure, and you are me, and I know it in my heart."

Quan Ce's brows moved slightly, and he responded in a low voice, "The minister doesn't dare"

The two were silent for a long time, and the atmosphere changed slightly, before slowly disconnecting from contact.

"Don't be lazy, this Luoyang stays, and it won't be your turn, I have already made arrangements, when the hibiscus is born, you will come to Chang'an to accompany you" The martial arts queen flicked the sleeves of her robe, her steps were light, and she turned to the side, "The military horn and military flag of the leading army guard are all taken away by you, and you must review it and return it back, so that there is a beginning and an end"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace," Quan Ce bowed down and thanked him.

Empress Wu's words, at least three meanings, she went to Chang'an, not a short-term play, to stay for a period of time, she deprived Quan Ce's military power, but also sent Quan Ce's henchman Wang Zhiben to be a summer official squire, let him continue to review the military guard, the meaning of compensation is quite obvious, Fu Hui called him to Chang'an to accompany him after giving birth, back to the center of power, obviously showing that favor and reuse are not reduced.

This school review of the military guard, twists and turns, peaks and turns, but quite interesting.

"Quan Ce, where is Fleur, I went to take a look, but I didn't get to the house, and I didn't see the reason for seeing the master" Empress Wu was relaxed and wanted to visit Fleur.

Shangguan Wan'er was going to follow her, but she was left behind by Empress Wu, saying that she was going to take care of government affairs in the Blue Blood Dock, and the dinner was also used in the Blue Blood Dock, so she asked her to arrange the preparations.

Empress Wu took Quan Ce's hand and walked along the delicate path, with great interest, and laughter came out from time to time.

She came this time, not only to see with her own eyes whether Quan Ce had any grievances, but also to calm down the discussion in the court, but also to envelop Quan Ce's heart, after all, she is a confidant and important minister she cultivated single-handedly, talent is rare, and there are many places to rely on.

After lingering at Fleur's place for a while, seeing that she was flattered, she was very uneasy, and the Empress Wu did not stay for long.

Back in the front hall, Shangguan Wan'er was already ready to stop, because of a large number of performances out of the palace, the palace supervisor Li Qiao came with him, and it didn't take long for Zhang Yizhi, the prince of Hengguo, to come and serve.

It's just that unfortunately, as soon as he came, he hit the muzzle of the gun.

"You're just in time," Empress Wu said in a deep voice, throwing a note in front of him.

Zhang Yizhi looked at Quan Ce and Shangguan Wan'er next to him, his face trembled, he picked up the song, only glanced at the inscription, and had a number in his heart.

"In the matter, Minister Zhang Changqi impeached the former Luoyang Mansion Yin Wei Xun Chun for fraud"

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know the details of this matter, however, according to this......" Zhang Yizhi flipped through it casually, and said respectfully, "There are witnesses, there are stolen money, and there are names of fraudulent people, and there are scholars in the market who died.

"I don't know the details, there is a division to investigate in detail" Empress Wu repeated the two words he said, and his voice was cold.

The former word, she didn't believe it at all, it was Zhang Changqi of the Zhang family who came forward to impeach, with so many hard evidence, she must have put a lot of selfish effort, but this ability is not something that Zhang Changqi can have.

As for the latter word, I heard that she was in a hurry, the reform of the imperial examination system, it was her good governance, and it was the first time that it was implemented, and it happened that she was going to move to Chang'an, and there was a fraud scandal at this time, wouldn't it smear her face?

"Your Majesty, the minister would like to ask for help to find out about this matter" Zhang Yizhi didn't realize the deep thoughts of the Empress Wu, and added another fire, the East Palace is weak, taking advantage of the situation to suppress, at the right time, if Li Chongfu is sent to the East Palace, the foundation of the Zhang family's wealth will be more stable.

"No need, this matter was exposed by Zhang Changqi, you come to investigate, it is inevitable that there will be suspicions of melon fields and Li Xia" Empress Wu's voice was flat, indifferently refused, and said, "Quan Ce, this matter will be handed over to you to deal with...... All the witnesses and physical evidence were handed over to him, Goro, do you understand? ”

Zhang Yi's heart jumped slightly, and he hurriedly responded to the order.

Shangguan Wan'er was still a little worried, her eyes wandered, and she was keenly aware of a smile on Quan Ce's lips, and her heart moved, and she secretly sighed, "Bad guy ......"
