Li Zhi left, and Wu Zetian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Sideways eyes looked at Xue Shao who was sitting there, Wu Zetian felt a little strange in his heart, this young man, was he stupid and stupid in his qualifications, or did he deliberately defect before the battle to help me win back the game? …… His Majesty's attitude towards Taiping's marriage was clear and tough, which was not surprising to me; Wanting Taiping to marry into a samurai family is just a fantasy that is not very close to reality for me. If there is one, there will be great joy, and if there is none, there will be no sorrow. But His Majesty actually vaguely lit up the butcher's knife at Wu Chenghei today, and it seemed that he was going to be ruthless to curb the expansion of the martial family's power, which really made me feel a little frightened! …… Wu Chenghei is the successor of my father's bloodline and title, a banner of the martial arts family that I erected above the court, and the mainstay of my lineage! Wu Chenghei's handle to frame the princess was caught in the hands of His Majesty, as long as His Majesty waited for the opportunity to exert his strength, the martial family would suffer a devastating blow!

What makes me wonder is that Xue Shao shouldn't hate Wu Chenghei the most, why did he take the initiative to say "borrowing books" when I was about to admit defeat, so as to find an excuse for Wu Chenghe?

This doesn't make sense!

After thinking for a moment, Wu Zetian's eyes suddenly lit up, could it be that Xue Shao was deliberately turning the war into a jade silk? …… In this way, he is quite knowledgeable! No wonder Taiping's attitude is abnormal today, it must also be taught by Xue Shao!

Princess Taiping was still kneeling on the ground and weeping, and Li Zhi's anger and brushing away seemed to have really frightened her. Wu Zetian walked up to her, bent down and patted her shoulder, "Taiping, don't cry." Come, sit down with your mother. ”

"Oh......" Princess Taiping raised her head at this time, her face was already crying like a cat, she glanced at Xue Shao quickly and quickly turned her face away, obviously not wanting him to see her embarrassed appearance.

The mother and daughter sat together, and Princess Taiping snuggled in Wu Zetian's arms, still crying and said quietly: "Queen Mother, I really know that I am wrong!" This time, it's all my fault, and everything is on me! ”

Wu Zetian didn't know whether to be relieved or sigh in his heart, the two of you haven't gotten married yet, are you breathing out of one nostril? It's really a big woman who doesn't stay!

She patted Princess Taiping's back noncommittally, "You are no longer a child, how can you hide in your mother's arms and cry all day long?" There are some newly paid spices from the Western Regions and Yangzhou gouache in the back hall, you go to freshen up and clean up, don't lose the appearance and dignity of a princess. ”

"Yes, Queen Mother." Princess Taiping knew that the queen of heaven was deliberately branching her out and wanted to talk to Xue Shao alone, so she obediently got up, looked at Xue Shao deeply, and floated away.

Xue Shao sat quietly from beginning to end, without squinting, calm and relaxed.

"You're really, calm in the face of big things." Wu Zetian suddenly spoke.

"Wechen...... In fact, he was afraid and did not dare to act recklessly. Xue Shao arched his hand.

The corners of Wu Zetian's mouth raised slightly, and his expression was playful, "How much have you memorized "The Mirror of the Six Armies"?" ”

"......" Xue Shao frowned lightly and hesitated for a moment.

"Do you have a knack for forgetting?" Wu Zetian said suddenly.

Anyway, this is not a bad thing, Xue Shao was too lazy to hide it, and arched his hand: "If the minister is particularly attentive, his memory will be a little stronger than that of ordinary people." ”

Wu Zetian was noncommittal, raised his hand and pointed at the bookshelf next to His Majesty, and said, "The bookcase pavilion on the lowest floor, you go and open it and take out the box inside." ”

"Yes." Xue Shao didn't know what Wu Zetian's intentions were, so he opened the bookcase as he said, took out a wooden box from it, put it in front of Wu Zetian, and then sat back in place.

Wu Zetian gently pushed the wooden box in front of Xue Shao, "It's given to you." ”

"Queen of Heaven, this is ......"

"If you open it and look at it, don't you know it?"

Xue Shao moved the wooden box in front of him, opened it and saw that it contained a copy - "Six Army Mirror"!

"Queen, this ......" Xue Shao was a little surprised.

Wu Zetian said calmly: "Eavesdropping on forbidden books, according to the law, you are the one who deserves to die." But after hearing about this, His Majesty only scolded Taiping but did not punish you, which shows that His Majesty did not object to you reading the book of soldiers and was quite partial to you. This palace also thinks that you may really be a creative talent, so this palace officially gave you this set of military books today. Since then, only you Xue Shao have read "The Mirror of the Six Armies" in the world, and from then on, the "Mirror of the Six Armies" will also be kept by you. If it leaks out, you are the only one who asks! ”

"Minister, thank you to the queen of heaven!" Xue Shao bowed his hand and breathed a long sigh in his heart! I exonerated Wu Chenghei with virtue and helped Wu Zetian to get back a crisis, she immediately gave me a big favor, although there was a suspicion of pushing the boat, but it was for me to inherit the "Six Army Mirror" justifiably! - She is really a typical businessman-style code of conduct, and she repays her with peach, and her interests are exchanged for a win-win situation!

"No courtesy." Wu Zetian said calmly, "The book of war is dead, the war is alive, Sun Ziyun 'soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent'." Zhao Kuo talks about the army and the country on paper, you must not learn from him. You need to study "The Mirror of the Six Armies" carefully, and if you don't understand anything, you can ask Pei Xingjian for advice. Pei Xingjian is Li Weigong's protégé, and now that you have inherited the "Mirror of the Six Armies", you can also be regarded as Li Weigong's next-generation disciple, and you are also Pei Xingjian's fellow disciple. Since Pei Xingjian recommended you to His Majesty, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to and appreciates you, and he will definitely not refuse to learn the art of war with you, a fellow disciple. ”

"Yes." Xue Shao promised in a deep voice, and his heart was full of joy!

Compete with the same door - Wu Zetian's hand is really beautiful! It not only gave me enough reasons to get closer to Pei Xingjian, but also gave Pei Xingjian enough steps to go down, so that he didn't have to worry about any opinions, let alone the gossip of outsiders saying that he was committed to flattering the diva!

Wu Zetian said meaningfully: "Pei Xingjian is the number one general in the Tang Dynasty, outstanding in civil and military affairs, and a very great hero, you have to be humble and diligent to follow him to learn more and practice." If you can inherit Pei Xingjian's talent and carry it forward, it will be in vain Your Majesty's preference for you...... It is not in vain that this palace has the courage to disobey the ancestral system, and gives you the "Mirror of the Six Armies" exceptionally! ”

"Minister, you must do your best!!" Xue Shao solemnly agreed, and was happy again in his heart: Wu Zetian's previous words are all official, and the last sentence is the key - she hopes that I can inherit Pei Xingjian's mantle! Perhaps, this is also the long-term political demand of the Second Sage, and it has always been Pei Xingjian's heart disease - the Second Sage does not want Pei Xingjian to stand out in the military without inheritance, comparison and checks and balances, how can Pei Xingjian himself be willing? !

"Taiping is young and grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, he is not embarrassed by people's feelings and does not understand the world, and sometimes it is inevitable to be willful. You are an adult man from a scholarly family in the family of Lile, and you must persuade and guide her more in the future. When Wu Zetian said this, it was completely the tone of "mother-in-law", and the tone was gentle and even revealed a little cordial, "This incident, in the final analysis, is because of Taiping's love for you, and killing people on the street is the most undeserved, and it must not be done again in the future!" Otherwise, this palace can be regarded as your poor persuasion and guidance, and even secretly instigated to participate in the plan, so that you will be punished together! ”

"Minister, it's written." Xue Shao replied with a bow.

Wu Zetian stared at Xue Shao and paid close attention to his expression, and couldn't help but nodded approvingly, hearing joy and not being overjoyed, and not being humble, it is indeed a calm atmosphere in the face of a major event, this is the root bone and knowledge that a person who has achieved a great event should have-Xue Shao, he really deserves peace! Wu Chenghe? …… Ay!

"This palace, I don't want to see any more conflicts between the two of you and Wu Chenghe." Wu Zetian said suddenly, "For His Majesty and the palace, the back of the hand and the palm are all meat. How can you fight in the same room? ”

"Yes." Xue Shao bowed his hand, and the implication was that Wu Zetian finally recognized me as "his own person"? actually put me, a "quasi-concubine", in the same intimate position as Princess Taiping and Wu Chenghei, showing that I am buying people's hearts!

"His Majesty said that the official position of inspecting the school is not suitable for you, and Pei Xingjian recommended you to teach some books and history to learn the secret code of Lantian in case he needs to march every day." Wu Zetian changed his words and said, "You have no jokes, in this way, you don't have to do the official order of the school inspector, wait for another official position!" ”

"Thank you for the grace of the promotion!" Xue Shao bowed her hand again, she didn't promise me a specific position this time, listening to this tone is to let me take up a "real position", then it depends on which ministry officials have vacancies!

Wu Zetian nodded with a smile, thank me? This Xue Shao is quite sensible!

At this moment, a eunuch entered the imperial study with a scroll of yellow rattan paper in both hands, "Queen of Heaven, Your Majesty is here!" ”

A handwritten edict is a kind of written document used by the emperor to issue orders, which can be issued at any time, and is widely used and used flexibly.

Wu Zetian's eyebrows sank slightly, and he took the emperor's handwriting on yellow rattan paper from the eunuch's hand and glanced at it, "Zhilu said." I will cook it according to His Majesty's wishes. ”

The eunuch immediately took his leave.

"Taiping!" Wu Zetian suddenly shouted.

"Erchen is here!" Princess Taiping immediately turned in through the back door, and it seemed that she had probably been hiding not far from the door.

"Your father and the emperor have come down and will confiscate a hundred of your food estates!" Wu Zetian's voice was very powerful.

"Huh?" Princess Taiping screamed in surprise and her eyes widened, "I have a total of three hundred and fifty households, and you want to cut off one hundred of me?!" ”

"Could it be that you don't know your mistakes and don't admit punishment?" Wu Zetian said in a deep voice.

"Erchen knows his mistake, Erchen just admit the punishment......" Princess Taiping replied pitifully with a pityful face, and after speaking, she turned her head and glared at Xue Shao, and whispered a broken thought, "It's all your fault!" I'll be a big poor man from now on, and you'll have to be responsible for providing for me!" ”

Xue Shao was so embarrassed that his neck shrank, and a row of black lines almost appeared on his head, the emperor only played fifty boards each, so you don't have to maliciously sell cuteness in front of your mother, right?

Although Wu Zetian pretended not to hear it, he almost couldn't help laughing, but said in his heart: Since His Majesty has already punished Taiping with the righteous destruction of his relatives, how can I favor Wu Chenghei and let him be exempted from punishment? …… It's really a snipe and a clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman, and the cheap is picked up by Xue Shao, this kid!.
