It's night.

A cold breeze blows through the slightly silent palace.

Bands of Feather Forest soldiers patrolled the palace with torches.

In a palace.

Princess Ji Ning of the Great Zhou Dynasty sat at a table, holding a biography of a novel of the Tang Dynasty in her hand, reading it with relish.

Occasionally, when she sees some words she doesn't understand, she will check them carefully, and if she really doesn't understand, she asks some slaves and maids around her.

"Princess."

A little eunuch knocked on the door of the temple and said softly.

Ji Ning put down the biography of the novel, looked at the little eunuch with beautiful eyes, and said: "You don't have to call me a princess, I am just one of the beauties of the harem of the Tang Emperor. ”

The little eunuch nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, Ji Xuansui." ”

Ji Ning bowed slightly, and said softly: "I asked you to send a letter to the envoy of the Great Zhou, did you send it?" ”

She must remind her royal brother.

Don't use troops against Datang!

Up to now, she has more or less heard about the deeds of the Tang Emperor, and when she was in the Taiji Palace, she observed the emperor's eyes.

She had already decided that the Tang Emperor just wanted to use troops against the Great Zhou......

From the mouths of these slaves and maids, we can know that the current emperor is determined to become the first emperor of the ages!

was once in the court, and even Tang Taizu didn't let go of his words.

How could such an imposing emperor have no thoughts about Da Zhou......

But as long as the division is unknown, she believes that the Tang Empire, which values reputation, will not send troops for no reason!

The eunuch replied: "I have already sent it over, I chose the maid, and on the way back, I heard a news related to Your Majesty, I wonder if the maid is interested in hearing it?" ”

Something to do with the Tang Emperor?

Ji Ning's beautiful eyes flashed, putting aside the camp issue, she was still very curious about this young but eloquent emperor.

She immediately said, "Say it." ”

The eunuch said in a low voice: "On the way back from the slave, I met the father-in-law who served His Majesty today, and I heard that the father-in-law got the news from His Majesty himself, Your Majesty doesn't like the plain harem, Your Majesty prefers the palace fight......"

"After the other servants learned about it, they seemed to have discussed it, and they were ready to stage a palace fight on the surface, so that Your Majesty would be happy, and then maintain the sisterhood in secret, if the slave expected it was not bad, someone would soon come to inform you of the election lady."

The emperor likes to watch palace fights?

What kind of fetish is this?

Ji Ning was surprised, could it be that no one is perfect?

At a young age, the emperor is eloquent and strategic, has the heart to open up the territory, and has the posture of an emperor through the ages.

It's almost perfect, so to speak.

No one is perfect, so the emperor likes to see palace fights?

It was a real eye-opener for her.

I didn't expect the emperor to like this......

"Hmm...... I see, if there are other servants to inform me, you can just say that I already know. ”

Ji Ning nodded, since these harem concubines wanted to cooperate with the emperor so much, then of course she didn't mind cooperating together.

"Yes."

The eunuch responded.

……

Meanwhile.

Inside the Prime Minister's Palace.

Several important ministers of the court gathered together.

Prime Minister Zhuge Wuming sat leisurely on the high hall, holding a feather fan and fanning it gently.

Not to mention, it really looks like that.

"The purpose of several of you coming here is to ask why Your Majesty is openly humiliating Da Zhou in the Taiji Hall today, right?"

Zhuge Wuming said slowly.

Several ministers looked at each other and nodded.

Zhuge Wuming squinted and smiled, "It's not that I said you, if you want to follow in the footsteps of His Majesty, then you have to learn to guess...... Or learn to speculate on His Majesty's intentions! ”

Speculating on His Majesty's intentions?

Several ministers looked at each other suspiciously.

One of them whispered, "Dare to ask the prime minister...... How to guess His Majesty's intentions? ”

Zhuge Wuming stood up, shook the feather fan lightly, and said: "You have to learn to empathize, if you are an emperor, from the perspective of the emperor, what will you do, and then combine what Your Majesty has done, and speculate, understand?" ”

Empathy......

Several ministers were lost in thought.

His brow furrowed tightly.

After about a while.

A relatively young minister suddenly spoke: "I understand! Prime minister! For example, the last time His Majesty rebuilt Chao'an City, it seemed to be nonsense on the surface, but in fact, he wanted to win the hearts of the people and the imperial power! Another example is the matter of His Majesty ordering a small soldier to take command, but in fact, that little soldier Han Yu is the descendant of Han Bing Immortal......"

"We look at the surface, but what Your Majesty sees is fundamental! Only by stepping over the surface and guessing His Majesty's intentions can we find out what His Majesty wants, and then we can cooperate with His Majesty! ”

As the minister spoke, his eyes flashed, as if he had had an epiphany.

When the other ministers heard this, they seemed to understand something.

Zhuge Wuming nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "The child can be taught!" ”

He was also feeling emotional.

It seems that he has educated several 'good talents' for His Majesty, and I believe that in the future, these courtiers will also learn to understand His Majesty's intentions.

The minister asked again: "Dare to ask the prime minister, what is the purpose of His Majesty humiliating Da Zhou this time?" Forgive me for being stupid and trying to figure this out. ”

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what His Majesty was doing with this move......

"Go back and guess for yourself, you just need to know that Your Majesty is laying out the world."

Zhuge Wuming smiled faintly.

He sat back in his chair, and everything seemed so breezy.

A minister couldn't help but ask: "Will Your Majesty get away with it, humiliate Da Zhou like that, and what if Da Zhou raises troops to commit it?" ”

Zhuge Wuming glared at the man fiercely and asked, "If you were the emperor, would you be so stupid?" Forcing Da Zhou to send troops to commit crimes? It's all said, you have to learn to empathize! Do you understand? ”

The minister touched his head embarrassedly.

The other ministers were also confused.

They are also embarrassed to ask again, and they themselves feel embarrassed when they keep asking.

Obviously people can understand things, but they still can't understand it.

Zhuge Wuming said earnestly: "Your Majesty's move is intended to ......"

He was just about to elaborate.

It's not done yet.

A subordinate outside knocked lightly on the door: "Master, master, there is news from the palace." ”

News from the palace?

Zhuge Wuming waved his hand and said, "Say." ”

The subordinate said in a loud voice: "There is news in the palace, Your Majesty rewarded the Great Zhou Emperor with silver, armor, and horses......"

He said a whole bunch of things in a row.

Several ministers were dumbfounded and looked at the prime minister in unison.

Zhuge Wuming coughed a few times and said: "Your Majesty has a deep meaning, you must know that it is impossible for Your Majesty to give materials to Da Zhou, Your Majesty's move must have a deep meaning, you have to think about it fundamentally......"

He racked his brains to think, and he found that His Majesty's intentions were becoming more and more difficult to guess......
