Chapter 256: Ruthless and Unjust
The plan has been decided, and Qin Shaoyou is ready to leave.
Empress Wei kept Qin Shaoyou and said, "Captain Qin, stay here." ”
This made Qin Shaoyou hesitate a little.
Because Wei Xuanzhen heard this, she had already left obediently.
It was indeed inconvenient for him to stay here, but when he saw Empress Wei sitting cross-legged on the couch, he said lightly: "Does Captain Qin know how to play chess?" Why not play a game against Hongu. ”
Sure enough, Gong E on the side had already brought the chessboard, and Wei Shi looked at Qin Shaoyou with a smile.
Qin Shaoyou suddenly felt his scalp tingle, he couldn't imagine that Wei's was so 'don't care' about the wind comments.
In fact, Webster is not a person who cares about wind reviews, there is a saying in the history of the Tang Dynasty: "At the beginning, the emperor was in ruin, and the later covenant: "Once you see the sky, you don't control it." "As for the game with the three Sisheng royal beds, the emperor is from the side, not angry." The meaning of this sentence is that back then, Li Xian was deposed, in order to appease the sad Webster, so that she could agree that if one day she could see the light of day again, everyone would not care about each other, and Li Xian obviously did the same, so that later Li Xian became the Son of Heaven, and Wei and Wu Sansi played chess on the royal bed, and Li Xian did not care even if he was next to him.
Of course...... In fact, Li Xian may have been afraid of the bones, and Wei did anything, even if there was some ambiguity, Li Xian dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
But for Qin Shaoyou, it is a dilemma, he doesn't want to offend Wei now, but he never wants to make any 'scandals', after thinking about it, Qin Shaoyou said with a smile: "How can Xia Guan be Niangniang's opponent." ”
Webster snorted and said lazily; "You are no match for Hongu. Although this palace doesn't know, it knows that you are afraid, but it is the truth. What's the matter. Are you afraid that Hongu will eat you? ”
There are many ambiguities in these words, Qin Shaoyou knows that it is not a way to go on like this, so he simply said: "The lower officials still have something to do, go first." ”
Merriam-Webster fell silent.
Qin Shaoyou hurriedly retired.
Coming out of the hall, Qin Shaoyou finally breathed a sigh of relief in the afterglow of the scorching sun. Anyway, it's done. And the next thing to wait for is to come to fruition.
When he arrived at the middle gate, he was confronted by Li Xian, who had just returned home. When Li Xian saw him, he immediately showed a look of anger and shouted in a low voice: "Qin Shaoyou." What are you here to do? ”
This sentence is really inexplicable. Qin Shaoyou was taken aback at first, could it be that this is also an immortal who can't jump? I came to see Webster by myself, and Li Xian arrived on the back foot, what kind of thing is this? But Qin Shaoyou thought about it carefully, and felt that it was wrong, because Wei Shi asked to see him, and Li Xian was angry, but he was afraid that it was because he saw Wei Shi. Tell the truth about some of Li Xian's secrets.
Qin Shaoyou said: "Your Highness, the lower officials have some official business. I met Concubine Wei with Gong Wei. ”
Li Xian's face looked a little better, and said, "What kind of business, it actually involves the concubine?" ”
Qin Shaoyou had no choice but to tell the truth: "It's about Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping." ”
Li Xian suddenly understood, and said, "But you want to marry Wei Jun?" ”
Qin Shaoyou nodded.
Li Xian immediately looked stunned, but he didn't seem to be able to say anything, just shook his head and said, "Oh, is this Your Majesty's idea?" ”
Qin Shaoyou smiled noncommittally.
Li Xian simply walked away with his hands behind his back.

Wu Zetian's condition has eased a little, but when he got older, after suffering from illness, his body suddenly began to deteriorate a lot, so that he gradually became sleepy recently.
At three poles in the sun, Wu Zetian woke up, followed by washing and combing his hair. And Shangguan Wan'er took the time to report some state affairs.
Facing the bronze mirror, looking at her aging self, Wu Zetian's eyes didn't know whether it was sad or helpless, she just sat silently, like a knife's shoulders did not move at all, Shangguan Wan'er stood behind her and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." ”
Wu Zetian's eyebrows and eyes only moved slightly.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "The Wei family, there is a note, saying that it is Wei Xuanzhen's fourth son Wei Jun, although he is not a young handsome man, but he is also loyal, and he has long had an intention for Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping, I hope Your Majesty will not give up and marry Princess Taiping, if so, the Wei family will be overjoyed by the emperor's grace." ”
Wu Zetian couldn't help frowning, he had only heard of the Son of Heaven giving marriage, and he had never heard of someone running to ask for marriage, but ...... The Wei family is so anxious...... It seems to be understandable that Wei Xuanzhen suddenly resigned recently, and the Wei family was panicked, and it seemed reasonable to ask Princess Taiping to marry.
This Wei family......
Wu Zetian frowned slightly.
In fact, she has never liked the Wei family, there are various reasons for this, but even Wu Zetian has to admit that the status of the Wei family is no longer under the two saints of herself and Emperor Gaozong.
Her own son, how could she not know his temperament, he has a weak temperament, and sooner or later he will still be controlled by others, but on the contrary, the fourth son Li Dan and grandson Li Longji, who have a hard temperament, are an obstacle to Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian will never hand over the position of the Son of Heaven to such a person.
Wei Jia...... Obviously it is the star of tomorrow, Wu Zetian can almost imagine how much power these people will swell to once they die.
Looking at her old self in the bronze mirror, Wu Zetian actually sighed, and she said lightly: "Wan'er, you and Ling Yue have always known each other, I want to ask you, if you were me, what would happen?" ”
Shangguan Wan'er opened her red lips, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The minister doesn't know." ”
Wu Zetian couldn't help laughing, and said: "You don't know, but I know that I only have this daughter now, and this daughter is actually the most like me among all the children. Wu Zetian paused: "I want her to live well, sometimes, I think, after people die, people have turned into a pile of loess, why care about what happens behind them, but sometimes, some things can't be given up after all." Everyone has their own blessings, and my blessings are almost dissipated, so ...... It's time to give this last bit of blessing to Ling Yue. ”
Wu Zetian paused: "I heard that Wei Jun is in the Wei family, and has always been loved by Wei Xuanzhen and Concubine Wei, and he can be described as obedient to him, such a person, if he marries a princess again, he will definitely have a great future in the future, but ...... Is it said that his character is average? ”
Shangguan Wan'er said: "A few days ago, I heard that he was fighting with people. ”
Wu Zetian pursed his lips contemptuously: "What is this, if you are a commoner, this is a great crime, beheading and exile, but overnight, but if this person is a relative of the emperor and a prince, let alone a fight, it is to kill ten, hundred, or thousand, and it is just a trivial matter." How can I not know that people never judge each other by likes and dislikes, but what is most important to a person is the noble and the low. Son of a daughter, this kind of thing is just a flaw in the white jade, it's not a big deal. ”
Wu Zetian seemed to have made a decision, and she said lightly: "It's just strange, that son of mine is not promising, like his father, he is subject to the hands of women, otherwise...... Why do I need to marry Ling Yue to the Wei family. ”
When it came to being subject to the hands of a woman, Wu Zetian actually smiled, she seemed to think of Emperor Gaozong, perhaps, her feelings towards the first emperor were complicated, because this person has achieved himself and given himself everything, but to a certain extent, all of this is based on this man's weakness.
Wu Zetian seemed to be tired again, although she had just woken up, but she had a deep sense of exhaustion all over her body, she sighed and said: "People are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, I know this truth, Wan'er, do you know that I am bowing my head now?" It's also time, I didn't bow to the Wei family, but completely lost to this God, I ...... After all, it is still a mortal, a person's lifespan, there is always an end, this is the destiny of heaven, the human body, when it is at its peak, there will be a day of weakness, and now...... I finally know that I am now in the last years of my life. ”
Wu Zetian squinted, she sighed faintly, and the unruly and majestic in her eyes seemed to be wiped out by that deep exhaustion. Her long armor trembled slightly, and finally said with a straight face: "Go and draft the will, this matter, do it quickly, don't delay." ”
Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, don't you ask Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping?" ”
Wu Zetian couldn't help laughing: "Ask her?" Do you think I don't know? She ran to Mengjin every three or five days, although she said that it was for money, for business, knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, I had already seen through her disguise, her mouth was full of copper stench, but I knew that she was a passionate person, who ......... Can't be amorous, otherwise...... will kill herself, the most misguided thing in the world is these things, I ask her, what's the use? ”
Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but move her eyebrows: "Your Majesty means that His Royal Highness ...... Qin to you"
Wu Zetian's face was calm, and he said, "You didn't see it? ”
Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly said, "The minister didn't see it. ”
Wu Zetian looked sideways, but he glanced at her faintly, and said: "Usually you, it's not like this, you can't see it, do you know why?" Because you're also a fan of the authorities. ”
"Ah......" Shangguan Wan'er was so busy that she fell to the ground in fright: "Minister...... Minister......"
Wu Zetian said tiredly: "You don't have to explain anymore, I said it a long time ago...... People can't have affection, they can't have hearts, and if they have hearts and feelings, they will have to make mistakes, endure hardships, and mistake themselves. ”
