Datang has changed.

Xue Shao went home.

For Xue Shao, who was already a little weak-hearted, it was really unfortunate that his brother and sister-in-law were also at his house. After all, no matter what era or family, a man who leaves his wife and children alone and steals joy for ten days and does not return is a thing that must be scolded by a thousand husbands.

What's more, not everyone can be like Xuan Yunzi and be able to understand the heavenly opportunity of Xue Shao's move.

So the first thing Xue Shao did when he returned home was to hold a son and a daughter in his arms and tease him endlessly. used this to show that he was very busy, so that his brother and sister-in-law and Princess Taiping had no time to scold him.

But after teasing for a while, Xue Shao found that none of these people seemed to have any signs of scolding him, and they were not even interested in talking to him.

Xue Shao suddenly felt very bored, and there was a little bit of clown cold loss. So he smiled dryly and approached his brother Xue Yi, "Big brother, didn't you go to Sinong Temple to take up a job today?" ”

"Been there, I'm back." Xue Yi replied as if it was routine business.

Xue Shao was bored, so he came to his sister-in-law, who had always been gentle and virtuous, and treated him as his own, and bowed down, "Meet my sister-in-law." ”

"No courtesy." Xiao Shi was smiling, but his words were cold.

Xue Shao had no choice but to laugh twice again, and this time he came to the front of Princess Taiping.

"I'm back!" He grinned.

"I see it." Princess Taiping was cold.

Xue Shao's eyes were straight, and for the first time, he felt the power of cold violence, which was really uncomfortable.

"Linlang, why don't you hurry up and arrange a meal for me. It's all this time, and I haven't eaten lunch yet. Xue Shao finally caught two people who could be bullied, and tried hard to show the majesty of the head of his family.

"Linlang, come over and press the shoulder on the main palace." Princess Taiping snorted lazily.

"Yes." Linlang agreed to her own promise, knelt left and right on Princess Taiping's side and massaged.

Come on, don't stay here for long, or you'll be wiped out!

Xue Shaolian was bored with a few questions, so he simply left the hall and walked straight to the backyard.

"Childe, you're back!" Yuenu was extremely happy to receive Xue Shao.

"Quick, I'm hungry!" Xue Shaolian swallowed.

"There's something to eat, Childe come quickly!" Yue Nu cheered, pulled Xue Shao up and entered her room, and immediately opened a table of delicious food.

Xue Shao gobbled it up, just like when he marched and fought in the past.

The moon slave served diligently on the side, and the more Xue Shao ate, the brighter the smile on her face became.

"Uh-"

With a violent burp, Xue Shao finally put down his chopsticks.

"Moon slave, it's still your sweetest."

The moon slave smirked vigorously, and the female man's face had some shyness of the girl next door.

Xue Shao was a little happy and asked, "How is it at home recently?" ”

"I don't know...... Moonslave shook his head a little blankly, "I live here every day, and I haven't been to the front hall much.

Xue Shao nodded, it is not surprising that there is a little bit of estrangement between Yuenu and Princess Taiping and Linlang.

"What about your father-in-law?"

"He and Guo An took those scouts to live outside." Yuenu said, "A few days ago, my father-in-law came and left when he saw that his son was not at home. He said that those people couldn't be idle, so they had to be taken out to practice. At this time, I am afraid that I will take people to the mountains. ”

Xue Shao nodded, and finally felt a trace of relief in his heart.

"Childe, where have you been these days? Why can't you even see a human figure......" The moon slave's voice was a little sad and sad, "The moon slave's heart seems to be empty, and the six gods have no master all day long." ”

Xue Shao was slightly stunned and speechless.

Moon Slave's sentence "Six gods have no master" may be something that many people want to say, but they haven't said. Another point, even the moon slave didn't know where he went, it can be seen that Linlang's tone was quite tight after he came back, and most of the maids and servants in the family didn't know.

Thinking of this, Xue Shao once again felt a sense of relief. Princess Taiping is more mature and sensible than before, and she is more housewife-like.

Front office.

Princess Taiping and Xue Yi and his wife actually laughed after Xue Shao left.

"I have to let him taste it, the princess is amazing." Xue Yi said, "No matter what the reason, Erlang is indeed too unreasonable this time. It's a loss that the princess's belly is like the sea, otherwise it would have been another woman, and he would have been blown out. ”

Xiao Shi interjected coldly on the side, "The husband is reasonable. ”

"Uh......" Xue Yi suddenly felt a little big, and immediately laughed a few times and stopped talking.

Who doesn't occasionally go out to play in the willows of the flower streets? Xue Yi is naturally no exception.

"Fortunately, there are brothers and sisters-in-law here. Otherwise, how could he be so low-voiced. Princess Taiping said stupidly, "He's not afraid that I'll blast him out!" Perhaps, I can't ask for it. ”

"Not really." Xiao said, "Erlang used to be a little buoyant, but in recent years, he has become a prodigal son. I think he's been behaving quite unusually lately, and he seems to have something else to hide. Since the princess is the person closest to him, why not inquire carefully? If he really relapses from his old disease, his brother will not spare him. ”

"Sister-in-law's words are always so reasonable. It makes people's hearts feel comfortable. Princess Taiping smiled and said, "Later, I will ask myself to find out." Anyway, I am also a princess in the Tang Dynasty. He was drunk and lying on the flowers for ten days and didn't return, where did I put my face? If he can't tell a reason, he doesn't need to make a big brother's move, and I can't spare him! ”

Princess Taiping said it lightly, but she was stunned and chilled when she heard Xue Yi and his wife - that's what I'm afraid of!

Xue Shao hid in the room of the moon slave and did not appear again for a long time. He didn't have to think about it to know how Princess Taiping and her brother and sister-in-law were counting themselves, and even made plans to clean themselves up.

However, after tasting too much of the cold guns and secret arrows above the court, returning here to enjoy this kind of "torture" of family affection is a different kind of comfort for Xue Shao.

Pain, and happiness.

It's just that Xue Shao's heart knows very well that this kind of painful and happy time can't last long. After all, he still has to walk back to the court to face the problems he should face.

Sure enough, it had been less than half a day since Xue Shao returned home. At dusk, a distinguished guest came to Princess Taiping's mansion.

This noble guest is unmatched in the whole world.

Wu Zetian.

It is normal for people to say that the son-in-law is too ridiculous and ignorant, and as a strong mother-in-law, he must come forward to educate him. So Wu Zetian almost scared Xue Yi and his wife stupidly. They all felt that Empress Dowager Wu was definitely here to ask the teacher for her guilt and fight for her daughter.

Xue Shao naturally couldn't hide anymore, so he had to go out to greet him in person.

"See the Queen Mother...... If you are disappointed, please forgive your sins! Xue Shao glanced at it.

"That's not right." Wu Zetian said coldly, "It should be that the palace will go to Pingkangfang to welcome you back." ”

"Uh......" Xue Shao was stunned, his eyes rolled wildly, and he wanted to find someone for help. It turned out that Princess Taiping didn't even look at him. As for the brother and sister-in-law, they were already in a cold sweat and scared.

"Don't squeak. When you go to the study, this palace has something to ask you. ”

"Yes!"

And so the two of them left. Xue Yi and his wife hurriedly said good things to Princess Taiping, and wanted her to come forward to intercede for Xue Shao.

Princess Taiping was helpless by what they said, so she had to say: "Brother and sister-in-law, don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"Really?" Mr. and Mrs. Xue didn't believe it.

Princess Taiping smiled helplessly twice and said, "If the Queen Mother is really angry with Xue Lang because of Pingkang's troubles, can she still take the initiative to come to Xingshi to ask for the crime?" ”

"That's right." Xue Yi and his wife suddenly realized. With Empress Dowager Wu's style, she either locked people up and threw them into prison, or no matter how bad it was, she sent someone to summon Xue Shao to the palace to clean up. Where is it to condescend to come in person?

In this way, she just has other things, or very important things, and she must have a secret conversation with Xue Shao in person immediately.

Princess Taiping pondered quietly, involuntarily looked up at the sky, and muttered, "Why is this sky so strange?" ”

"Is it going to rain?" Xiao Shi inadvertently answered.

Xue Yi heard Princess Taiping's voice at once, and couldn't help but feel a tight heart immediately...... The situation is turbulent and dangerous, Erlang is going to take our Xue clan with him, where to go?

In the study.

"Change the flag?" Xue Shao exclaimed.

The relocation of the capital, the change of the name of the era, the reform of the name of the imperial capital and the official system, and the change of flag are all signs of "changing the dynasty...... Xue Shao thought in his heart, a generation of empresses, finally can't wait!

"That's right." Wu Zetian's voice didn't look like his mother-in-law was teaching her son-in-law a lesson, as if she was in the court, "You need to advocate for this matter." ”

"Me?" Xue Shao's brows furrowed.

"Don't you dare, or can't?" Wu Zetian did not beat around the bush.

Xue Shao wrinkled his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and said, "Queen Mother, it's not a question of whether you dare or not. If we want to carry out the change of flag in the army, there is considerable resistance. In my opinion, now is not the best opportunity. If you do it too quickly, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble. ”

"Jingcheng Prefecture and County have all been implemented. There is resistance, but it doesn't have to be tricky. Wu Zetian said, "The army has always obeyed orders, where do the resistance and risks come from?" ”

"Faith." Xue Shao said two words.

Wu Zetian frowned, "Explain in detail." ”

Xue Shao said: "Most people in the army are not literate and illiterate, unlike those courtiers and officials who know the current affairs and understand reason. The army has always used the flag to command orders, and the military flag is a kind of faith for soldiers. On the battlefield, there are often many soldiers who are willing to give their lives in order to protect a battle flag. Most of the soldiers are hot-blooded and high-spirited people. Now all of a sudden, there is a need to change the flag in the army...... Emotionally, the soldiers may not be able to accept it for a while. ”

Wu Zetian pondered for a long time when he heard this, and said, "There is some truth in your words. But it is imperative to change the flag. Can you estimate to this palace, how long will it take for the army to achieve a comprehensive change of flag? ”

Xue Shao thought for a moment and said, "At least two years." ”

"Nope." Wu Zetian said in a deep voice, "Half a year at most!" ”

"The Queen Mother, a thousand-person military mansion has hundreds of flags. There are hundreds of thousands of troops in Datang, so many flags, and they can't be built for a while! Xue Shao said, "At this time, the four are restless. If you act too hastily and cause the morale of the army to be unstable, it will be detrimental to the National Congress! ”

Wu Zetian pondered for a moment, as if he nodded a little unwillingly, "That's a year." Couldn't have been more! ”

Xue Shao also nodded helplessly, "One year, very reluctantly." ”

"This matter will be left to you to deal with." Wu Zetian said, "Thinking of your years of hard work, I allowed you to rest for ten days." Now that the imperial court is employing people, there is an urgent shortage of arms around the palace. Chengyu, it's almost time for you to return to the dynasty to take office, right? ”

"Uh......" Xue Shao blinked, "What's the job?" ”

Wu Zetian smiled with deep meaning, "The job that everyone expects to return." ”

Xue Shaozhi shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"Don't be confused." Wu Zetian said angrily, "The book of the military department, who else is you?" ”
