Chapter 794: Princess of the Wu Dynasty
Xue Shao's two eyes, coupled with his murderous aura, could make a strong man's legs tremble, and Princess Taiping was of course frightened. But she didn't run away, but hurriedly got up naked from the quilt and hugged Xue Shao's neck tightly, "Xue Lang Xue Lang, don't be angry!" I'll just say it casually, and I know you're not going to say yes - I'd rather die too! β
Xue Shao pushed her away and hugged her in his arms, and asked calmly, "This is what your queen mother meant, right?" β
She ...... She had mentioned it a little earlierβearly! Princess Taiping emphasized "early", but she didn't say how early it was, and then said in fear, "But her old man knows better than us that there must be no problems in the marriage between the two of us!" ββCan't you see her attitude on the dragon boat today? β
Xue Shao nodded silently, Wu Zetian has always wanted to break the old gate valve clan's stubborn assertion of power, so as to enhance her strength and stabilize her rule, but this does not mean that she really does not need any help from the gate valve.
Politicians pay attention to practical interests, they will not be emotional, and they will not use someone because he is a courtier of the previous dynasty. Unless you really can't get it, you want to destroy it completely! If I can lead the entire Fenyin Xue clan and the powerful army and armed forces to support Wu Zetian, I will definitely be able to make her achieve twice the result with half the effort, and even ascend the throne a few years earlier than she in history. So unless she's stupid, why wouldn't she?
"Well, that's the last way left." Princess Taiping said cautiously, looking very lacking.
"Say." Xue Shao was calm.
His calmness made Princess Taiping extremely uneasy. She opened her mouth, but couldn't get a word out of it.
Xue Shao found that he seemed to be too serious, which scared her. So he smiled and hugged her into his arms and shrunk into the quilt together, "Say, I'll listen!" β
"Let you marry the daughter of a samurai family. The marriage of the two clans of Xue and Wu. Princess Taiping finally said it.
Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "This Xuanyunzi told me. But the other party's candidate has never been decided-I look around, none of the crooked melons and cracked dates of the martial arts family can compare to the princess and lady of my family. At that time, I will have to recognize Wu Chenghe's frustration as my uncle, this is really a great tragedy! β
"Then do you marry or not?" Princess Taiping asked.
Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "Marry it, marry it, the family has enough food, I don't mind having one more mouth." The multiple concubines who carry tea and pour water for you are not bad. β
Princess Taiping shook her head, and said faintly-
"It's not a concubine, it's a wife. It's not a crooked melon and a cracked jujube, it's a ...... of the future Wu Dynasty Princess! β
β¦β¦
At this moment, Yingxian Palace looks at the Sendai.
The demon is not there, but it seems that there is really a fairy who fell from the sky and stood on the Yingxian platform, the white robe and the snow clothes were flying, silently and compassionately overlooking the entire god capital city.
There is only one person next to her, that is, Wu Zetian, the empress dowager of the current dynasty who is now in charge of the imperial power.
"Xuanyunzi." Wu Zetian called lightly and said, "If this palace is not mistaken, this is the first time you have taken the initiative to come to see this palace." β
"Yes."
Wu Zetian smiled slightly, "Let's talk about things!" β
"Poor Dao still feels that he can't take on the big responsibility." Xuan Yunzi shook his head, looked at the night sky with a sad look, and said calmly, "I am willing to ask the Queen Mother to let me out of the palace and let me go back to Nanshan to cultivate." β
"No." Wu Zetian's answer was very simple and rude.
Xuan Yunzi was silent for a long time, "Why me?" β
"No why." Wu Zetian smiled, "You can see it as a gift from the heavens, or a punishment from the heavens." Both. β
"So, Poor Dao has no choice?" Xuan Yunzi asked.
Wu Zetian was still smiling, "Of course there is, you can also choose to jump from here." Everything is over at once. β
"The Queen Mother knows, I won't." Xuan Yunzi was not excited at all, let alone angry.
"Yes." Wu Zetian really smiled now, "Xuan Yunzi has never been a cowardly person, she will never choose to escape, even if she is about to face her heavenly calamity." That's why Hongu chose you. Hongu never looks at the wrong person. β
Xuan Yunzi was still calm, "I want to see my senior brother once, Sima Chengzhen. β
"Right now." Wu Zetian clapped his hands, "Go and invite Sima Zhenren." β
Xuan Yunzi finally showed a trace of consternation, "When did Senior Brother arrive in the Divine Capital?" β
"A month ago." Wu Zetian smiled and said, "He knew that your heavenly tribulation was coming, and he had come to Shendu a long time ago, and he had been waiting for you to say that he wanted to see him." β
"......" Xuan Yunzi was speechless, and muttered: "Senior brother's prophecy has come true after all, as long as I move the red luan star, I should be destined to respond to this catastrophe." β
"Things may not be as bad as you think." Wu Zetian said indifferently, "Although this palace does not have your cultivation, it also understands a truth. There has never been a real difficulty in this world, only cowards who admit defeat in advance and give up on their own initiative. β
Xuan Yunzi was slightly silent for a moment, and nodded slightly.
"If there is nothing else to do, this palace will go back to rest." Wu Zetian said, "You wait here, Sima Zhenren will be here soon." β
"Send the Queen Mother."
β¦β¦
Xue Shao was a little surprised.
He listened to Xuan Yunzi say a lot of things, thus proving that the conjecture in his heart was not wrong. Wu Zetian moved the idea of letting Xue Shao divorce Princess Taiping, and then marry Princess Taiping to the nephew of the Wu family, but she has always been secretive and only said it to Princess Taiping alone. Princess Taiping strongly resisted and forced her to die, but Wu Zetian has always been a person who will not easily move his thoughts, and he will not easily change his thoughts if he moves.
Princess Taiping's struggle had little effect, and the pressure in her heart was very great. She once ran out of control and rushed out of Wu Zetian's room in the inner court, and then ran to the Shangqing Palace and met Xuanyunzi unexpectedly.
Xuan Yunzi is a person with a heart, she neither asks nor persuades, but just accompanies Princess Taiping to drink to relieve her sorrows. When she got drunk, Princess Taiping told Xuan Yunzi everything in her heart. Now that the taboo has been broken, Princess Taiping simply said nothing to Xuan Yunzi, and gradually gained great trust and dependence on Xuan Yunzi, who was full of wisdom and calmness, which was different from ordinary people.
Since then, the two have often met secretly to discuss countermeasures. Wu Zetian also knew about it, so he simply announced the two of them at the same time to find out the matter, and asked the two of them to work together to come up with the best countermeasure for this matter as soon as possible.
Let Xue Wu marry the two families is the idea put forward by Xuan Yunzi. But this candidate is quite difficult to pick and has been undecided, so Wu Zetian's attitude has never been very clear. But Xuan Yunzi said that the Queen Mother "maybe" still prefer the "Xue Wu marriage".
Just "maybe" does not mean that the Queen Mother has given up the idea of forcing Xue Shao to divorce Princess Taiping.
This is what Xuan Yunzi knew, and everything she said to Xue Shao.
If it weren't for these confirmations, Xue Shao would not have done so many things later, such as self-surrender to the pastoral courtyard and Luoshui martial arts.
At that time, Xue Shao had already prepared for the worst in his heart - if Wu Zetian was really determined to force me to divorce, he would first take away my military power. Then when she saw that I took the initiative to send the purple gold fish charm and take the initiative to throw myself into the pasture, she would go down the slope and get off the donkey, so she did it.
At that time, Luoshui performed martial arts...... It's really not just "acting"!
What if you don't have a talisman?
The word "Xue Shao" is more effective than the soldier talisman!
What about the stench that lasts for 10,000 years?
It's better than a wife who is separated and a family is ruined, and finally dies without a place to be buried!
-- Fortunately, things didn't go for the worst.
Today, it is not difficult to feel from Princess Taiping's words that Wu Zetian has indeed changed his mind and has pinned his hopes on the marriage of Xue Wu's two families, but-
"Taiping, even the emperor has only one queen's wife, how can I marry two wives?" Xue Shao asked, "First of all, if you want me to divorce you, it will be absolutely impossible unless I die!" β
"Don't talk about death, I'm afraid!" Princess Taiping's tears are about to fall.
"Okay, I won't say." Xue Shao hugged her tightly, "Then let me marry another wife, what's the matter?" β
"My mother has done a lot of things in her life, and they have set precedents for the past and present." Princess Taiping had red eyes, but there was a strange expression on her face that seemed to be smiling, "Is it strange to give you two wives one more time now?" β
"That's right...... Not surprising indeed! Xue Shao was stunned, and at the same time realized-yes, she can become the only empress in the patriarchal world for thousands of years, and now let me marry one more wife, what's so strange about it?
"Why don't you ask, who is the future princess of the Wu Dynasty?" Princess Taiping said sourly, "If that time comes, my Princess Taiping is not a princess, but she is a princess!" β
Xue Shao's face was blank, "Whoever dares to say that you are not a princess, I will beat him to call you the imperial grandmother!" β
Princess Taiping laughed, and shook Xue Shao's neck vigorously, "I'll tell you seriously!" - You're not an outsider anyway, and my mother is definitely going to change the dynasty. At that time, I, the daughter of the Li family, will really not be a princess. Don't you want to know, who is the future princess of the Wu Dynasty? β
"Whatever his grandmother's legs, she can only pour tea and water for you anyway!" Xue Shao turned over and pressed on Princess Taiping's body unreasonably, and smiled evilly, "The two of us are happy in the fish and water, so I will give her the flag to the side and shout!" β
"No shame, no shame!"
Princess Taiping's delicate appearance with a red face instantly made Xue Shao energetic and high-spirited!
"Don't ...... Stop! Princess Taiping gently pushed Xue Shao's strong chest, "People haven't come to their senses yet!" β
Xue Shao turned over with a smile and hugged Princess Taiping in his arms, stroked her smooth back, and said seriously: "Except for you and I divorce, other things are easy to discuss." β
"Would you give up everything you have now?" Princess Taiping asked.
Xue Shao smiled indifferently and said: "Power, wealth, fame, status, these are all brought by life without death. The only person who can truly accompany me for the rest of my life, and which my children and grandchildren will remember forever, is you, my wife! β
Princess Taiping hugged Xue Shao tightly, "I will always remember that you once said that I am the other half of your life." I didn't understand or believe it before, but now - I do! β
"If you really understand."
Xue Shao kissed her forehead-
"I have no regrets!"
