Xue Shao is not surprised to reach such a consensus on the issue of the "ideal country", and Wu Zetian is not surprised. Now both of them are aware of the similarities between the other and themselves, and that is - pragmatic.

Xue Shao has the soul of a modern person, although he has also read a lot of classics on the dogma of the Spring and Autumn Period, but deep down he is actually not bound by these things. This is an "outlier" in the era of the Tang Dynasty. In other words, what kind of male superiority and inferiority of women, feudal traditions, and etiquette and religion defense are all of little significance to Xue Shao.

Coincidentally, Wu Zetian has also been fighting against male superiority and female inferiority, feudal traditions, and the defense of etiquette and religion all his life.

Therefore, Xue Shao and Wu Zetian both know in their hearts that the reason why the two have been able to work together so far is that the relationship between mother-in-law and son-in-law is not important. The important thing is that the two are like-minded.

"Since the will of heaven is so ......" Xue Shao was ruthless, and decided to take the lead in completely piercing that layer of paper, and said, "Queen Mother, it is advisable to be the emperor as soon as possible." ”

“！！” There was a trace of consternation in Wu Zetian's expression, but he flashed away quickly, but said lightly: "Chengyu, why do you come up with such a big rebellious statement?" ”

'Still calling my cousin, it seems that she is not angry at all' Xue Shao couldn't help but smile slightly, and said calmly: "The destiny is hard to disobey." The minister also obeyed the order. ”

"......" Wu Zetian almost didn't have any expression, just looked into the distance and blinked his eyes a few times, and said lightly, "How can it be done just by those few words of childish words about stargazing?" ”

Xue Shao's heart was even clearer, Wu Zetian's "micro-expression" that kept blinking his eyes had already shown her heart undisguisedly.

Ascending to the throne, this is definitely what she is currently eagerly longing for!

However, this is also what she is particularly taboo to talk about in person!

In this way, Wu Zetian, who dared to go against the sky, was not completely careless. The sentence "how can it be done" is enough to prove that she doesn't want to do it, but she is not sure enough.

"What the minister wants to say is that freezing three feet is not a day's cold." Xue Shao said, "Thirty years ago, the Queen Mother ascended to the throne of the empress and has been helping the first emperor to take charge of the country since then. Twenty years ago, the two saints were the same as the sun and the moon, and since then the Tang Dynasty has ushered in a long-lost world rule after Zhenguan, and the people are rich and the country is prosperous. Ten years ago, the first emperor Long was unwell and began to live in a simple and rare place to ask about the government, and the queen mother ruled on her behalf, and all major military affairs were decided by the queen mother. After the death of the first emperor, Datang faced an unprecedented crisis of internal and external troubles. It was also the Queen Mother who led the stormy new court, swept away internal troubles from foreign enemies, and brought the Tang Dynasty back to peace. To this day, the queen mother's departure from the position of emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan is actually a gap between the title and the ceremony. If the Queen Mother follows the sky and ascends to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, then all the current order can be smoothly preserved, and there will be no chaos in the world. On the other hand, if the longer the delay lasts, the more days of suspicion and hesitation there will be between the government and the opposition, and it will be easy to cause chaos. As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day, nothing more than so. ”

"That's not true." Wu Zetian suddenly retorted, his tone was quite hard, and said, "Your Majesty's new ascension to the throne is just that he is still young and lacks experience and foundation, and is not enough to control this turbulent court and troubled country for the time being. Now the Turks have fallen, the civil strife has been calmed, and the wilderness is peaceful. The palace should retreat to the harem and hand over power to His Majesty. It's time for him to be pro-government. ”

“！” Xue Shao was taken aback, what is the situation with his mother?

"That's it!" Wu Zetian suddenly stopped talking and said, "Today's words, I only treat you as a drunken gaffe." You, who are a son-in-law, say to this palace in private, and this palace can not care. Externally, don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, sooner or later, you will be killed. ”

"I know." Xue Shao replied lightly, and said in his heart that I am not stupid, do you still need to tell me?

"I'm tired, go back and rest." Wu Zetian turned around and left, "You haven't seen the demon for a long time, let's talk to her here!" ”

"Yes."

Wu Zetian left.

Xue Shao was still standing by the railing, overlooking the night view of Luoyang, and let out a long breath. Think about what you just said, in fact, every sentence is enough to kill and destroy the door. But there is no way, what Wu Zetian wants to hear today is these words. Otherwise, the real catastrophe of killing and destroying the door may be waiting for you not far away!

"Brother Fairy ......"

Xue Shao turned around and saw an incomparably clean face and a pair of eyes as clear as Hong.

"You'er, you've grown up." Xue Shao looked at the big girl in front of him, who was only slightly shorter than himself, and couldn't help but remember the scene when he used to squat and talk to her, and often hugged her in his arms to play, and couldn't help but sigh, "Time flies so fast, it's really a female college eighteen changes!" ”

"Hee-hee!" The demon smiled, "Brother Fairy, can you watch the stars with me?" ”

Xue Shao looked up at the sky, the night was like a fight, and the stars were dotted.

"Demon, can you really see the number of Heavenly Destiny Qi from the astrology?" Xue Shao was a little curious.

The demon smiled and tugged at Xue Shao's sleeve and motioned for him to sit down. Xue Shao sat down on the spot according to her, and the demon reached out to take off his shoes.

"Why do you take off your shoes?"

"It's best to talk to the stars, and to be unrestrained." The demon said without thinking, "If it weren't for the cold weather, I would often be stargazing here without clothes!" ”

"......" Xue Shao was a little speechless, and then smiled bitterly, "Demon, you have grown up, you can't be naked at will." ”

"There is a fairy brother here, don't be afraid." The demon smiled without any scruples, raised his hand and pointed to the night sky, "Fairy brother, look, that is the Xuanwu Seven Nights." ”

Xue Shao followed her finger and looked over, only to see a dense array of stars, where could he see what "Xuanwu Seven Nights"?

"Sixty-five, more than 800 stars are in the shape of turtles and snakes, so it is called Xuanwu." The demon smiled and said, "Brother Fairy, do you know, the stargazing technique I am learning now is derived from the Qimen stargazing technique created by Guiguzi......

"You'er, you tell me this, I don't understand it at all." Xue Shao habitually raised his hand and was about to stroke her hair as before, but he stopped halfway through it...... She's a big girl now!

You'er turned her face to look at Xue Shao, grinned, reached out and grabbed Xue Shao's wrist and let her touch her head, "I just like Brother Fairy to caress me like this...... It's been a long time, I miss it so much! ”

So Xue Shao's hand caressed her long black hair, which was as smooth as a match.

You'er closed her eyes and smiled, her expression was very warm and contented.

"You'er, who told you those words?"

"What words?"

Xue Shao said: "What heroine should be happy, the destiny is in the martial arts." Li Tang's gas is not exhausted, and he will prosper in the next life. ”

Demon Dou Ran opened his eyes and looked at Xue Shao in surprise, "Brother Fairy, isn't this what you told me?" ”

Xue Shao was even more surprised, "When did I tell you this?" ”

The demon immediately covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened, and her face was frightened.

Xue Shao is too familiar with her movements and expressions, in the past, when she was naughty and afraid of being spanked by the moon slave, she was always like this.

Moreover, her eyes really don't deceive.

Xue Shao glanced back, and those eunuchs and maids were all standing in the distance to avoid the wind, all drowsy.

"You'er, you didn't see this from the stars at all, did you?" Xue Shao asked in a low voice.

You'er still covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened nervously, and she nodded in fear, but immediately shook her head again.

"Then why did you deceive the Queen Mother?" Xue Shao's tone was a little bit hot.

"I didn't lie to her!" The demon let go of his hands and said anxiously, "Although I can't see it for a while, but the fairy brother told me that I can go to the astrology to find verification!" ”

"It's a lot easier." Xue Shao immediately woke up after speaking, "Wait, when did I say such nonsense to you?" ”

"Just that day......" The demon fluttered with a pair of smart eyes, squeaking, "That day! ”

"Which day?" Xue Shao's face was flat.

The demon suddenly panicked, "It's when Brother Fairy came back from Hebei after winning the battle, and I went to visit you with Mrs. Huayang!" ”

Xue Shao thought hard, and finally remembered that it was in Princess Taiping's Mansion, and she had some poor sleep because of the hard work of the battle, so she took the initiative to let the demon hypnotize herself, and by the way, she also wanted to test her "skills"!

"You hypnotized me and asked me those questions?" Xue Shao was both a little angry and a little surprised, "No, these questions are not something you can ask at all!" ――Did the Queen Mother ask you to ask? ”

The demon bit her lip and lowered her head, looking very scared.

Xue Shao didn't need to ask, he understood.

That's right, that's indeed something Wu Zetian desperately wants to know.

"I didn't tell the queen of heaven, those words were said by you......" the demon said in a quiet, timid voice, "I just said, it is the words of the stars." ”

Xue Shao suddenly felt speechless and relieved. You'er's heart is too clean, which makes everyone believe in her...... But that doesn't mean she's really stupid. In fact, when people like her deceive people, that's what is called a deception!

At the same time, Xue Shao also thought in his heart: It's better now, because of the demon's mistake, the historical trend I know also knows Wu Zetian. It doesn't really matter if she really believes it completely. The important thing is that the layer of window paper has been pierced, and there are no secrets and estrangements between me and her. Either she will kill me sooner to kill her, or she will treat me as a real confidant and arm and help her ascend to the Ninth Five!

Now it seems that the possibility of the latter is obviously very great!

"Brother Fairy, have I done something wrong?" The demon whispered.

"You didn't do anything wrong." Xue Shao smiled in relief and said, "You are very smart, you are smarter than all of us. ”

"You don't understand? ......" You'er's eyes were a little confused.

"You don't have to." Xue Shao stroked her hair with a smile and said, "It is precisely because I don't understand that I can achieve a clean mind, so I can live unrestrained and have happiness that others can't enjoy." ”

"Then I don't understand!" The demon closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up with a very enjoyable expression, "I just need to understand that having my fairy brother caress my hair is the greatest happiness in the world - that's enough!" ”
