Shangguan Wan'er seemed to be unable to get rid of the trajectory of fate, and suffered from the raiding of her family and slavery in history, but because of Wu Mei's appreciation of her ability after the school examination, she was suddenly promoted to the rank of a five-grade talent shortly after being removed from her status as a slave.

And now, even when Li Hong, a scourge, has fallen into the Tang court, it still has not changed the original trajectory of Shangguan Wan'er's fate.

When the Yuan Dynasty was made miserable, embarrassing, and chaotic by him, Saleh and the Sultan, Wu Mei in order to maintain the atmosphere of the court and prevent these three people from spoiling everyone's interest, so in a hurry, she promoted many female officials in the palace, including some other relatively low-level royal relatives.

Therefore, after a short period of chaos, because of Wu Mei's imminent danger and proper scheduling, the court meeting that day was not too affected by the fight between Li Hong and Saleh, so that it could end smoothly and successfully.

As for those royal relatives who were suddenly promoted, or female officials, or noble and wealthy families, although they were only promoted to some dispensable grades, in Li Hong's hindsight, the old lady deserved to be known as the first empress Wu Mei.

Because even these people who were promoted in a hurry, as long as you observe carefully and ponder carefully, these are all involved in some people from the family who are beneficial to the Tang Dynasty today.

Even within the five surnames and seven wangs, many people have been awarded the title because of this, so that from the perspective of the imperial court, even if these people are studying in the border areas, they also experience the attention and grace of the imperial court.

And this point is what Li Hong has always ignored, only knowing the disadvantages of suppression, but never giving benefits, but by mistake, he was made up for by his dragon mother at the court meeting that was full of smoke and miasma.

I have to say that Wu Mei's unique vision, as well as her ability to control the current affairs and trends of the court, are definitely above Li Zhi.

Perhaps because of the woman, some details that Li Hong ignored were also filled in by Wu Mei in the dark without Li Hong knowingly.

Otherwise, with the court supervised by the Tang Dynasty and other officials, especially at a grand ceremony such as the Grand Meeting, Li Hong and Saleh fought again regardless of their identities, and this matter is probably enough for Li Hong to drink a pot.

But because of Wu Mei's control and scheduling, and Li Hong's current power leaning towards the government and the opposition, which is equivalent to the authority and prestige of the Tang Emperor, the Imperial Historical Observatory, including the celebrant and the Taichang Temple, did not impeach him, so that he ended up so easily, and the perfect result was the same as that of a person with nothing to do.

Wu Mei looked at Li Hong, who had said that he was worry-free and worry-free, and said that he was not worry-free and worry-free, and personally held an egg that had just been peeled with her own hands, and rolled around the prince's right eye without distress under Li Hong's grinning expression.

"Then according to your strategy, in the future, you will be regarded as the five surnames and Qiwang clan who have been assigned to Tocharo and other places, do you still have any hope of returning to Datang?" Wu Mei didn't seem to be giving Li Hong an eye, but like she was announcing a personal vendetta.

But in the face of such maternal love, Li Hong didn't dare to refuse directly, so he had to endure the heat and pain in his eyes, and said with grinning teeth: "You are stupid to be five surnames and seven wangs, these people who were sent away by five surnames and seven wangs were because of the oppression of the imperial court, and the five surnames and seven wangs had to do it." But in the specific family of five surnames and seven hopes, these people who were assigned to the border areas are actually the Shu clan in the five surnames and seven wang families, and none of them are willing to be exiled to the border land, so these distant relatives and side branches are a force that my Tang Dynasty court should use when the time comes. ”

Wu Mei smiled disdainfully and motioned for Li Hong to hold the egg herself, but when she just let go and handed the egg to Li Hong, the rabbit cub picked up the egg and ate it in its mouth.

The bruise on the right eye showed no signs of disappearing for the time being, but was boiled by Wu Mei's compress just now, and it became a little red.

"Okay, this palace doesn't need you to praise me, Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghei, I put them in Lingnan, and then I'm afraid you can't take care of Lingnan, although Chen Jingzhi and Pei Xingjian are over there, but in the end it is on the sea, Lingnan still needs someone to sit in charge, don't go smoothly in the Central Plains by then, and Lingnan will come out with a feudal official like Feng An, so I'll make the decision for you." Wu Mei easily told Li Hong what she should tell the prince in power, and what the actual ruler of the empire should know.

Li Zhi on the side heard Wu Mei's words, but he showed a gloating smile, he has always wanted to suppress your mother's mother's family, now it's okay, in the end, it's not for your mother to seize the opportunity and push people into the official career again.

However, these words were heard in Li Hong's ears with another intention, in his opinion, the queen mother transferred Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi out of Chang'an to Lingnan, obviously not planning to let the people of the Wu family come back.

Over the years, whether it is Wu Yuanqing or Wu Yuanshuang, whether it is an official position or a title, it is like being forgotten by the imperial court, and he has never been promoted again.

Obviously, this is not deliberate by the imperial court or the officials, it is obviously the two giants in the Daming Palace, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace, who selectively forgot these people.

Therefore, when Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang were forgotten in Lingnan, now Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi are also transferred to Lingnan, obviously to let the two follow in the footsteps of their fathers, and live and work in Lingnan in peace and contentment in the future, and be forgotten by the court and the queen.

This has to be said to be a concession by Wu Mei to Li Hong today, from the beginning of the struggle to let Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi take charge of the Ministry of Industry, and now directly transferred away, indicating that Wu Mei finally stood on Li Hong's side after weighing various pros and cons, and gave support to his prince.

Li Hong, who peeled two more eggs one after another and ate them in his mouth, picked up the towel next to him and wiped his hands, and saw that the old couple was fine, and he was about to go back to the East Palace.

"What about what happens between you and Saleh?" Li Zhi put down the concerto, looked at Li Hong's tall back and asked.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow will go to the Central Military Academy, this time Saleh is determined to avenge the revenge I beat last time, and this time Yuan Ri was beaten by me in a daze, so he is holding back his strength to fight with me, among the nearly 1,000 followers, most of them are elite soldiers and strong generals of their big food, so the envoys of tomorrow's Great Eclipse, the Japanese Kingdom, Goguryeo and other countries will go to the Central Military Academy to observe." Li Hong stopped and turned back, this was what he had just ordered early this morning, so whether Saleh was injured or not tomorrow, he would have to have a head-to-head competition with him.

What Li Zhi is most annoying is that His Royal Highness, a dignified and upright prince of the Tang Dynasty, does not dance and ink every day, but always wants to dance with knives and guns, learning the martial arts of his imperial grandfather, but ignoring the Wen Tao of others.

No, now even the originally chubby Li Dan, under the influence of him and Li Zhe, began to take a horizontal knife and a bow and crossbow in his palace when he had nothing to do, and even threatened to apply to the imperial brother for a few years to join the army for a few years.

"You've finished demonstrating at the court, so now you're still demonstrating to others militarily, aren't you? By the way, I would like to ask you, what is your idea now? This year's great court meeting with Saleh Zhangluo was disrupted by the two of you personally, and now you want to show each other's force in front of the envoys of various countries, what is the reason? What is your ultimate purpose? Wu Mei leaned her chin, which was starting to look a little plump, looked at Li Hong and asked curiously.

Li Hong smiled and said: "The division of interests, the division of territory, and at the same time to the envoys of various countries, who are willing to rely on in the future a reference, let's put it this way, the war has many purposes, in addition to my Datang's own territory, there are also border countries dependent, and it is also the interests of our Datang, and these invisible interests will provide Datang with some huge benefits that can be seen in the future, for example, when I Datang and Dashi make a war again, the big and small Bolu are either protruding Shi or Tocharo, We can provide grain and grass for our Datang soldiers, and we can even garrison Datang soldiers on their land...... ”

"How is this different from the Persian governorate I founded? It's just a different name and a different term. Li Zhi glanced at Wu Mei, and then asked Li Hong.

"The difference is very big, because if my Datang soldiers step out of Anxi to march and fight, then all the costs are borne by them, so that naturally there is no need to change the supply line from Luoyang waterway to land, and have been stretching the supply line to the four towns of Anxi thousands of miles away, we have saved the waste of manpower and material resources, and even half of the money can be saved, and most importantly, in the early stage of the war, our Datang can even use the armies of various countries to act as our vanguard troops, so that the benefits to my Datang are still small?" Li Hong asked with a smug smile at the two who were listening intently.

Wu Mei nodded thoughtfully and muttered, "So the battle between you and Da Shi is just to win these benefits, to whom?" Aren't you still going to work together? ”

"Of course, if we don't get these benefits, when we cooperate, Da Shi will use these benefits in exchange, and they can hand them over to our garrison to reduce their own losses. If Erchen wins these benefits, then Dashi and Datang must pay their own interests to cooperate, think about it, let him take other people's things as favors, how can I Datang suffer a loss? ”

"So you're going to have to win this time?" Li Zhi's face began to twitch again, what Li Hong said just now is very reasonable, compared to the establishment of the Persian Governor's Mansion at the beginning, he paid his own money and sent troops, and it was obviously much less expensive for the Tang Dynasty.

The son is so much more powerful than Lao Tzu, which makes him feel that he should really be a Zen position.
