The eastern capital is Luoyang, Taichu Palace

Since Xu Jingye's letter "Seeking Wu Cao for Li Jingye" came out, the current emperor Li Dan took the initiative to retreat to the harem in order to avoid suspicion, and handed over all the power of the court to the Empress Dowager Wu Meiniang.

In fact, all the courtiers knew that this was just an excuse for the Empress Dowager Wu Meiniang, the real reason was that Wu Meiniang imprisoned the emperor in order to show her authority, and she couldn't go anywhere else except for the resting courtyard.

In addition to imprisoning the emperor, Wu Meiniang also changed the emperor's year name a big change, throughout the Tang Dynasty, the previous two emperors, Li Yuan and Li Shimin had only one year name, and when I came to Li Zhi, I don't know if it was to show his great achievements or be different, he changed more than ten years in his life, basically one to two years to change a year name, and when he came to Wu Meiniang, it was even more customary to change the year name.

Wu Meiniang not only likes to change the era name, probably to show the difference from the Tang Dynasty, she has given a big change to everything, changing the eastern capital Luoyang to the divine capital, Luoyang Palace has also become the current Taichu Palace, and even the flag has changed color, which can be said to be Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows.

It can be said that after such a change, although the external pressure is extremely great, Wu Meiniang's power in the court is becoming stronger and stronger.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, in the imperial history, Cheng Di Renjie asked to see him outside the palace and said that he had something important to say." There was a rush but a small sound of footsteps, which woke up Wu Meiniang, who was concentrating on writing.

Di Renjie asked to see him, hum....... Another one who doesn't give up, Wan'er, tell me, why did this Di Renjie come! ”

Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's advice, Wu Meiniang gently put down the roughness in her hand and snorted coldly.

"Sneer, Niangniang, you will toss people, isn't this obvious, that Pei Yan colluded with the traitor Xu Jingye, and wanted to oppose Niangniang from the inside and outside, Niangniang, don't you say that Dali Temple will interrogate his crimes, after Dali Temple handed over the crime he confessed to yesterday, but countless ministers came to see Niangniang, but they all wanted to intercede for him, this Di Zhongcheng came here at this time, and it must be for this matter." Shangguan Wan'er said with a sneer.

Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's indifferent look, Wu Meiniang not only didn't mean to blame, but also showed a faint smile on her face, and said, "You, you are really a ghost spirit, the longer you grow, the more uncute it is, I want to be the ignorant and naïve Wan'er, but I can't find it." ”

"Niangniang, look at what you said, you dislike Wan'er for talking too much, okay, from now on, Wan'er will stop talking, and the province will make you unhappy?" Hearing Wu Meiniang's ridicule, Shangguan Wan'er also pretended to be unhappy and pouted.

"Yo, you little girl, you still dare to show your face with this palace, you really should be beaten, when this palace is free, I will definitely teach you a good lesson, let you know the rules, don't hurry up and invite Di Zhongcheng in, what, I really want to ask for punishment." Wu Meiniang also said easily.

"Ah, Niangniang, what are you talking about, please come in Di Renjie, for ...... Why, you haven't seen anyone in the past two days, even Zaifu Liu Shilang You have asked the slave to resign, is it worth seeing a royal historian? Hearing Wu Meiniang's words, Shangguan Wan'er said in surprise.

It is inevitable that Shangguan Wan'er will be surprised, many officials are very dissatisfied with Pei Yan's trial, but under Wu Meiniang's strong request, Dali Temple still loosened Pei Yan's testimony, which was full of charges of Pei Yan plotting to usurp the throne and colluding with Xu Jingye to prepare for rebellion.

At this moment, those officials who were good friends with Pei Yan, or who had interests with Pei Yan, could no longer sit still, no matter who they thought they had some identity, they came to Taichu Palace to ask to see Wu Meiniang, wanting to let Wu Meiniang open the net and spare Pei Yan's life.

It's a pity that Wu Meiniang has been afraid of Pei Yan, a veteran of several dynasties and a powerful prime minister in the court, and this time she finally seized the opportunity, how could she easily let him go, therefore, no matter who came, Wu Meiniang was closed and sent out, and there were countless people who were higher than Di Renjie's official position and had a big seniority.

Strange is strange, Shangguan Wan'er did not slack off at Wu Meiniang's order, quickly walked out of the main hall, and saluted Di Renjie, who was standing respectfully, "Di Zhongcheng, the Queen Mother, please come in." ”

"Whew"

After hearing Shangguan Wan'er's answer, standing outside the door, Di Renjie, who was already sweating hot, finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, to be honest, for Pei Yan's matter, Di Renjie really didn't want to come forward to intercede, first of all, he and Pei Yan did not have any intimate contacts, and even because the forces represented by the two parties were different, there was a confrontation in the previous time, Pei Yan represented the power of the family, and although Di Renjie was born in a scholarly family and a literary family, he represented the real landlord class, in fact, he was a scholar from a poor family. Regarding Wu Meiniang's ostensibly rebellion through Xu Jingye, but in fact it was a disguised weakening of the power of wealthy families in the court, Di Renjie was even applauding in his heart.

But these days, after thinking hard for a few days, Di Renjie still chose to come to see Wu Meiniang, wanting to intercede for Pei Yan, not for anything else, Di Renjie's trip was all for Datang and Jiangshan Sheji.

From the current point of view, Wu Meiniang's power is already unstoppable, like Xu Jingye and others, but also like the clown who jumps the beam, it can't become the climate, in this way, if Wu Meiniang is just the queen mother, taking care of the government, even if some people are dissatisfied, there will be no major changes, but if Wu Meiniang really wants to change the dynasty and establish her own martial arts dynasty, it will be a great event.

When the time comes, what will the people who are loyal to the Tang Dynasty react, he is unwilling to think about it, will there be another, two, or even ten or eight people like Xu Jingye appear, it is not impossible, if that situation really occurs, even if Wu Meiniang really gets the world and suppresses the development of the wealthy family, what role can it play, the people of the world will still suffer endless suffering.

But if Pei Yan is left behind, it will be different, although Pei Yan is the representative of the wealthy family in the court, but after all, he is still an official of the imperial court, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what, he will not want to see civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, even if Wu Meiniang really usurps the Li Tang Dynasty in the future, with the support of Pei Yan and others, he can avoid some hidden dangers to the greatest extent.

It was precisely after thinking of these that Di Renjie would rush to the Taichu Hall to plead with Wu Meiniang, of course, Di Renjie didn't know if the result of his request would be like those other ministers.

Fortunately, the result was still very satisfactory, Wu Meiniang actually agreed to his request, and in surprise, Di Renjie was a little more vigilant in his heart.

"Weichen, in the imperial history, Cheng Di Renjie visited the Queen Mother, Niangniang Sheng'an."

Walking into the main hall, Di Renjie stopped twenty steps away from the steps, and then bowed down to Wu Meiniang.

"Hahaha, Di Aiqing is here, hurry up, come closely, this palace has just written a big character, I feel a little awkward how I look at it, I heard people say, Di Aiqing's calligraphy attainments learned from Yan Liben Yan Aiqing, they all say that calligraphy and painting are not separated, Di Aiqing must be extraordinary in calligraphy, just ask Di Aiqing to give the palace some advice." Looking at Di Renjie who came in, Wu Meiniang seemed to be extremely happy.

Hearing Wu Meiniang's words, Di Renjie was stunned at first, although he didn't know what Wu Meiniang meant, but he also replied, "Niangniang is too famous, although the teacher is superb in calligraphy and painting, but Weichen is very dull, not even one ten-thousandth of the teacher, how dare you comment on Niangniang's masterpieces." ”

Saying this, Di Renjie took a few steps forward very simply, and did not stop until he was five steps away from the imperial step.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er and another palace maid had already walked down with a huge white paper.

As soon as he raised his head, four big characters appeared in front of Di Renjie.

Each of these four big characters is the size of a human head, which looks vigorous, but in Di Renjie's eyes, these four words are a little ordinary, and they are worthless except for a little momentum.

But these four worthless characters made Di Renjie feel a little surprised and regretful.

What is the meaning of incompatibility refers to the fact that two hostile sides cannot exist at the same time. The metaphorical contradiction is irreconcilable.

And at this time, Wu Meiniang wrote these four words, and deliberately let herself appreciate them, there is no doubt that this shows that Wu Meiniang has now made up her mind to kill Pei Yan, or to use the killing of Pei Yan to hit or pass through the people of the wealthy families, so that they don't do things beyond their acceptance, otherwise, Pei Yan is their role model.

And regretted that it was indeed because he was still a little impatient, so when he didn't figure out Wu Meiniang's thoughts, he rashly came to intercede for Pei Yan, in this way, not only did he not have a way to release Pei Yan, but he also made himself lose his image in front of Wu Meiniang.

Even so, Di Renjie did not give up persuasion, and still said, "Hahaha, the Queen Mother is worthy of being a saint, these words are written in a huge atmosphere, as if Mount Tai is in general, after making people feel awe, it is really a rare masterpiece!" ”

"Oh, Di Aiqing praises a thing like this, it's really rare, to be able to get Di Aiqing's praise, this palace is quite honored, but Di Aiqing doesn't want to say good things, what is this word, this palace knows in my heart, this palace wants to hear it, what are the shortcomings of this word, and I can learn a lesson in the future, so that this calligraphy can be taken to the next level." Wu Meiniang said with a complicated expression.

If there is a different person, or a different time, whether it is other ministers or Di Renjie, they will not really say anything serious, after all, this kind of thing is just a small matter, and it is not a major matter that affects tens of millions of people, if you can have a good relationship with the person in power in this regard, it can be regarded as a minister's ability.

But Di Renjie really has something to come to today, so even if he is unwilling, he can only bite the bullet and say, "Hahaha, Niangniang said that she laughed, Niangniang's words, vigorous atmosphere, are rare masterpieces, but there is absolutely nothing perfect in this world, and this painting is of course no exception, if Niangniang really wants to hear it, Weichen can only offend." ”

"Okay, Di Aiqing, please speak freely, and this palace will listen to you."

"Niangniang, please look, this word looks extremely imposing overall, but if you observe carefully, you can still see that these four words are still distinguished, the first word, may be written when writing, because it is just at the beginning, Niangniang is the hardest, so the writing of this potential word is extremely thick ink, the next step word, can be described as the most stable of the four words, with the adjustment of the first word, this is not the word, Niangniang has been written very smoothly, with ink evenly, moderate strength.

To the third word, Niangniang may be because the first two words are too smooth, this two words are written a little frivolous, at home these two words have two strokes exactly the same, therefore, Niangniang is a little impatient when writing.

If the third word is a bit of a ruin, to the fourth word, it's a complete pity, this word is the last word, but also the most important place in the four words, people say that the head of the tiger and the tail, it can be seen that this tail is the most difficult to write, but the mother of the word in writing, not only did not have intentions, but it seems to be written twice respectively, so that the original masterpiece had to appear some flaws, reduced to the next grade, it is a pity, sigh! ”

"Uh-huh......."

Hearing Di Renjie's detailed analysis, Shangguan Wan'er's eyes widened in surprise, looking at Di Renjie as if she was looking at a monster, although Shangguan Wan'er was just a female official in the palace, and it didn't seem to have much to do with officialdom, the main responsibility was to serve Wu Meiniang, but don't forget, Shangguan Wan'er is Wu Meiniang's favorite female official, when there is nothing to do, Wu Meiniang also likes to teach Shangguan Wan'er some views and handling opinions on the government, and even many times, Wu Meiniang will hand over some unimportant recitals to Shangguan Wan'er for processing, and after writing out her opinions, she will directly review them.

It can be said that Shangguan Wan'er is also relatively clear about a set of things in the officialdom.

It is precisely because of this that she can't figure it out, this Di Renjie doesn't look like a fool, and he has been an official for many years, so he can't stand up to it, and he really treats Niangniang's politeness as a golden rule, criticizing the words written by Niangniang, do you really think that Niangniang doesn't dare to kill you.

Compared with Shangguan Wan'er's surprise, Wu Meiniang laughed secretly in her heart, and at the same time thought of the first emperor, that is, Gaozong Li Zhi, who had loved and hated him all his life.
