Hearing the queen say such a "wine talk", Princess Taiping, who was sitting on the bed tucking the quilt, shrank her hand on the spot and was stunned. Although Xue Shao's expression was calm, he was actually taken aback in his heart-let me be the general of the Right Feather Lin Wei?!

"Mother, you've drunk too much, go to sleep!" Princess Taiping didn't wait for Xue Shao to reply, and whispered to comfort Wu Zetian on the side.

Wu Zetian closed his eyes and smiled, "I drank a few more cups, but I still knew it in my heart." ”

Princess Taiping glanced back at Xue Shao, shook her head lightly to signal him not to speak, turned her head and said, "Mother, I'll sleep with you tonight, right?" ”

"No, no." Wu Zetian whispered, "Go back, go back!" ”

"Then the emperor won't disturb the queen mother's rest, and will retire?"

"Go, go!"

Princess Taiping got up and pulled Xue Shao to retreat with her.

There were many people in the palace, and the little couple didn't say a word, they both walked out of the palace and got into the carriage, and went straight to Qinglongfang.

When she was sitting in the carriage, Princess Taiping's expression was a little nervous, she didn't say a word, she held Xue Shao's hand tightly, and her palms were a little sweaty.

"Enron, why are you so nervous?" Xue Shao asked.

"Didn't you hear the Queen of Heaven ask you just now, do you want to be the general of the right feather Lin Wei?" Princess Taiping asked rhetorically.

"I hear you." Xue Shao nodded, "It's just a drunken joke, why take it seriously?" ”

"Are you serious, aren't you serious? I think the diva is quite serious! "Princess Taiping is like saying a tongue twister.

Xue Shao smiled, "This is a major national event, how can it be taken seriously because of a drunken remark?" ”

"I know my mother better than you. Her old man said so much while she was drunk today, it was nothing more than a tentative intention, do you intend to take over the right feather Lin Wei? Princess Taiping said.

"Even if it is, why are you so nervous?" Xue Shao asked with a smile.

"You don't understand! You don't understand! The more Princess Taiping spoke, the more nervous she became, and her mouth stammered a little, and she hesitated for a long time, and finally held back a sentence, "You will always know about the changes in Xuanwumen, right?" ”

Xue Shao's brows furrowed fiercely, and he said in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

Princess Taiping was anxious, and leaned into Xue Shao's ear and whispered urgently: "In short, you must not be the general of the right feather Lin Wei!" It's better to go on an expedition to a foreign race or to quell a rebellion, and don't get any other blood on your hands! ”

Xue Shao's heart suddenly lit up, he really had a heart, Taiping was the same as he thought!

So Xue Shao hugged Princess Taiping tightly and said two words - "Don't worry!" ”

Princess Taiping also hugged Xue Shao tightly, "I'm at ease with you, but I'm not at ease with my mother!" What if her old man really wants you to be the general of the right feather Lin Wei? ”

"Then, even if I don't want to be this general, I can't refuse." Xue Shao said, "You also heard what she said today, she said that someone was going to bully her, her orphan and widow, and asked me to help." Do I have room to refuse? ”

"I really didn't expect that my mother would use human coercion on you!" Princess Taiping was a little anxious, "Xue Lang, you must find a way to refuse this matter!" ”

Xue Shao frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, and said, "It depends on the situation, I'll try my best." ”

Princess Taiping also knew that this matter was not something that could be decided by what he said. At present, the emperor is seriously ill, and once such a thing as "the transfer of monarchy" occurs, the Imperial Forest Army guarding the palace will become very important. It can be both a defender of the regime and a powerful weapon to seize it.

Obviously, Princess Taiping didn't want Xue Shao to be involved in such a major right and wrong.

"Enron, don't worry." Xue Shao said, "First of all, I definitely don't want to be a general of Yulinwei, especially at this time; Secondly, even if I can't refuse to become a leader, I will find a way to get out and leave the maelstrom of Chang'an. ”

"Leaving Chang'an?" Princess Taiping was stunned, "Do you want to go on an expedition again?" ”

Xue Shao breathed a sigh of relief, "To be honest with you, even if there is no disturbance about General Yulinwei, I want to leave Chang'an, a place of right and wrong." I'm too depressed here, and I'm not having a good time at all. ”

Princess Taiping was stunned again and muttered, "Did I make you sad?" ”

"No, of course not." Xue Shao hurriedly hugged Princess Taiping, "It's all because of the intrigue and intrigue in the officialdom, which makes me tired of it." I like the feeling of being out with soldiers even more, it's a kind of freedom and enthusiasm that you can't imagine! ”

"It's beautiful I can't imagine, can I?" Princess Taiping lay in Xue Shao's arms, tilted her head, stroked his cheek and said.

"I love you, Enron. Being with you is my happiest moment! Xue Shao lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly, and whispered, "But we can't hide at home forever and grind our sideburns." More often than not, we have to face the turmoil in the court and the danger in the officialdom. Do you remember what we discussed before, we can't always rely on other people's breaths to live, we must continue to grow our own strength. In the face of storms and disasters, only you can best protect yourself! -- I led my troops out to make a contribution, just to make myself strong! ”

"I know. I've always known that. Princess Taiping looked at Xue Shao seriously, still caressing his cheek, "Everything you did was for me and for our family." Although I couldn't bear to let you go on an expedition, I didn't stop you after you really decided. Isn't it? ”

Xue Shao nodded with a smile and kissed Princess Taiping again, "Thank you, Enron!" ”

"Now, I have only one thing left for you." Princess Taiping held Xue Shao's face with both hands and said very seriously.

"You say."

"In the future, wherever you go, whatever you are going to do. Please take me with you! ”

Xue Shao was stunned for a moment, "Did you also take you with you for the expedition to fight?" Enron, you are a dignified imperial princess, not a moon slave! ”

"You mean, I'm not even as good as a moon slave?"

Xue Shao suddenly smiled bitterly, "I didn't mean that!" ”

"Anyway, that's the only thing I can ask of you! If you don't take me with you, how can you protect me? Princess Taiping didn't seem to be joking at all, and said very solemnly, "If we can't do this, then are we still husband and wife?" ”

"......" Xue Shao was speechless for a while, pondered for a long time, and said, "You are right. All the while, I've ignored your feelings. I'm not a good husband. In the future, I will definitely improve. ”

"It's not an improvement, it's a promise." Princess Taiping was rarely so serious as she is now, and said, "I know that marching and fighting are hard and dangerous. I can't march with you in the wind and snow like the moon slave, and I can't fight with you. But I'm your wife, and it's only natural that I'm following you! Neither hardship nor danger can be a reason to part with us! ”

"Enron, listen. If I'm just going out briefly, I won't take you with me anyway. But if one day I will leave Chang'an and stay out for a long time, I will definitely find a way to take you with me! Xue Shao said, "What do you think?" ”

"Good!" The corners of Princess Taiping's mouth lifted and she smiled sweetly.

"This is a secret agreement between our husband and wife, and we can't say it to anyone!" Xue Shao stretched out a little finger, "Pull Gougou? ”

"Hey, hey! The dignified Xue Shaoshuai, will he also play like a child? ”

"To pull or not to pull?"

"Pull, pull, pull, pull, pull!"

……

In the next ten days, Xue Shao and Princess Taiping stayed at home fiercely. Except for Xue Shao's occasional trip to the Beiyaguan Office, they hid in the Xue Mansion in Qinglongfang and almost stayed at home, resting beautifully, and enjoying a burst of family affection.

It wasn't until the twelfth day of the first month that Li Jinxing went out of the funeral, and Xue Shao and Princess Taiping showed up together to attend the funeral. At this time, the spring break of the Beijing officials was also over, and most of the officials had already returned to Chang'an to resume normal business trips.

Xue Shao, Xue Chuyu, and Guo Yuanzhen bumped heads. During the Chinese New Year, the two of them were responsible for taking turns on duty in the thousand horses, and Xue Shao learned from them that these days Yu Linwei's side is not very stop, and many people are running around for the position of the right Yu Linwei general vacated by Li Jinxing. In addition to the generals of Yulinwei and Fan Yunxian, there are also a group of generals of the Twelve Guards of the Southern Ya who are also very eager for this position. They tried their best to go through every doorway they could, and they wanted to win this piece of fragrant bread.

Although he had long known that Xue Shao had expressed his attitude, Guo Yuanzhen still asked a little unwillingly: "Young Marshal, it stands to reason that you, the general of the Thousand Cavalry, are the most likely to take over as the general of the Right Lin Wei." You really don't have any ideas? ”

"It doesn't matter if I have an idea or not." Xue Shao said, "This kind of position is not something that can be obtained by running and asking. If it does come to me, I can't refuse even if I don't want to do it. ”

Guo Yuanzhen laughed on the spot, "I'll just say it, you still have ideas!" ”

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Xue Shao pursed his lips disdainfully.

Guo Yuanzhen smirked.

Xue Chuyu took over and said, "The young marshal has a point. Yu Linwei is the main force of the palace guard. How to appoint the two generals of Yulinwei is directly related to the safety of the middle palace and even the survival of Sheji. Therefore, it can neither be obtained by drilling, nor can it be shirked! ”

"Well, you both have a point." Guo Yuanzhen said with a straight look, "Then now let's count the DPRK and the army together-in addition to the young marshal, who else can be qualified for the post of General Lin Wei of the Right Yu?" If you can name a name, I will invite you to a wine feast for three days; If not, please me! ”

Xue Shao and Xue Chuyu pondered carefully, pondered for a long time, and were really surprisingly silent.

"Don't think about it." Guo Yuanzhen shook his head and said, "Young marshal, I won't pick a place." I went to Princess Taiping's Mansion to eat a big family for three days! ”
