Qianwu Palace, Qianyuan Palace.

Although today is not the early dynasty, but the empress still came to the Qianyuan Hall early, not going to the court does not mean that the empress does not "work", these days, she has to convene the ministers several times a day to discuss matters, those who have already been to the official or because of Wu Xukuan's relationship, in the first two years by Wu Xukuan's dismissal of the old ministers, have come back one after another.

The imperial court has begun to function again.

When Zhou An entered the Qianyuan Palace, the empress was having breakfast.

"Xiao Anzi, come on...... Eat together. The empress beckoned to Zhou An very casually, although the imperial posture could not be hidden, but she could also feel her approachability, of course...... This kind of approachability will also be revealed in front of Zhou An.

To others, even Li Guangshan, the empress would not have such an attitude.

The empress respects Li Guangshan, which is a deliberate gesture.

There are many people at the table waiting for the empress to eat, each dish can only eat a maximum of three bites, and a servant needs to adjust the position of each dish for her, as long as she has eaten three bites of the dish, she will immediately move it to a distance.

Zhou An sat opposite the empress, and he was also a little unruly, his whole ass sat on the chair, and he ate normally, he didn't think about it so much, his mind was full of things, and the empress didn't look at him much.

"Xiao Anzi, you say, when should you bring Yunjing back?" The empress asked without raising her eyelids, drinking soup.

"Shengshang, now it's chaotic outside, take His Highness back, there will inevitably be twists and turns on the road, if the news leaks, I'm afraid it will cause trouble, or I have to wait for the situation to stabilize, and then take a look at ......" Zhou An said.

"Hmm!" The Empress nodded.

Indeed, now is not a good time to bring Princess Cloudview back.

The six major feudal kings are eyeing each other, counting the days, they should also receive the news of Qianjingcheng, whether they will rebel, how many will rebel, it is difficult to say, as well as Wu Xukuan's two sons with heavy troops, and a few border army generals who have received Wu Xukuan's favor.

In fact, if it was just them rebelling, it wouldn't be terrible!

Wu Xukuan is dead, and most of those who used to be Wu Xukuan have now written to show loyalty to the empress, such as the four major legions of the Zhongzhou Army, in addition to the Chuanhe Army and the Baijiang Army, the other two legions were also Wu Xukuan's people before, and now, they are all the empress's people!

The commanders of the two major legions have already written to ask for guilt, and even plan to go to the capital in person to ask for guilt in person.

If the empress chooses to forgive them, she must forgive them!

This is made for the whole world to see.

In this way, we can stabilize the country.

Otherwise, most of the soldiers and horses in the world were loyal to Wu Xukuan before, can the empress still be killed?

Now, the empress holds the world's soldiers and horses!

Regional rebellion, the empress is not afraid!

What she is afraid of is that it will affect the whole body, triggering a chain effect and quickly collapsing...... If one vassal king rebels, will the other vassal kings rebel? The six feudal kings are reversed? How many of the local family lords and feudal officials with heavy troops will rebel?

In fact, whether they will oppose it or not depends entirely on what the empress does.

If the empress settles accounts with them, they can be said to have to rebel.

So the empress won't do this, take your time.

For the current empress, the most important thing is to see how all parties will react after receiving the news of Wu Xukuan's death, this can be said to be the most sensitive period, at this time, if Princess Yunjing returns to Beijing, the possibility of assassination and hijacking on the road is very high.

Not to mention the others, Wu Xukuan's two sons must have sent someone to do this.

"It's been a month, and I haven't seen the clouds, so I miss it." The empress put down the spoon and sighed, her expression a little depressed.

Zhou An knew that the empress was a little lonely and cold.

Kang Longji is really gone, and there is one less person who can be regarded as a "close relative" by the empress.

In this palace full of soldiers and armor and slaves, how many people can accompany the empress to talk well?

"Holy Lord, it won't be too long, as short as a month, or as long as two or three months, and when the situation is stable, the servants will go to bring His Highness back......" Zhou An said.

"I don't know if Yunjing thinks about me." The empress muttered, raised her eyes and glanced at Zhou An, and said, "Xiao Anzi, what do you think of Li Ping's person?" ”

Mention this stubble again!

Mention it again!

"Yunjing is also not small." Without waiting for Zhou An to answer, the empress said again, "Then Li Ping, Yunjing doesn't like it, but I have already told Li Shangshu that there is no room for maneuver, but I don't know what kind of young talent there is worthy of Yunjing......"

"Holy Lord, from the perspective of the minion, then Li Ping and His Royal Highness are not suitable." Zhou Andao.

"Do you think it's inappropriate...... empress said, paused for a moment, and then said, "Why?" ”

"Li Ping's family background is illustrious, his talent is outstanding, he was born in the army, Yunwen Yunwu, he is indeed a rare young talent, but he is young and vigorous, and his personality is also extremely strong, he dares to collide with officials in the army, and even clash with him, which is a capital crime, but he is the grandson of the old handsome, so he is exempt from punishment...... He has such a character, His Royal Highness is better than him, the two can't complement each other, but may be a needle-to-needle to Mai Mang, it is definitely not a good match, and something will happen sooner or later! ”

The head of Zhou An's analysis is the Tao.

The empress didn't speak, picked up the soup spoon again, took a sip of soup, and then spoke: "Then what kind of talent do you think, and you are a good match for Yunjing?" ”

"It's nothing more than a scholar with a peaceful personality, who can accommodate His Highness, or...... Let His Highness admire the obedient people, but His Royal Highness is a princess, and it is difficult to find those who can make him put down his identity and be obedient...... "Zhou Andao.

"Uh-huh......" the empress replied with a nasal voice.

Squeak!

The door of the Qianyuan Hall suddenly opened, and an old eunuch hurriedly entered the door, hung his head and bent his waist, walked quickly to the table, whispered to Zhou An, and then handed over a secret letter to Zhou An.

Zhou An's expression moved, and he raised his hand to signal: "Go." ”

The old eunuch hurried away.

Zhou An opened the secret letter and looked at it, then got up, walked around the huge long table, walked to the empress, and handed the secret letter to the empress.

"Shengshang, the old marshal has quelled the rebellion of the Sichuan River Army, you see ......" Zhou An said.

The empress hurriedly put down her chopsticks, wiped her hands, and took the secret letter.

The Sichuan Army mutinied yesterday, and the internal fighting broke out, and the chaos lasted until the evening, when Li Guangshan made a public appearance, stabilized the situation, and purged the Sichuan River Army.

It wasn't until dawn today that everything was done.

"Good! Good! Li Shangshu is worthy of being the god of my Eastern Qian's army! The empress couldn't help but admire Li Guangshan's handwritten secret letter.

Li Guangshan took people out of the city to do business, not directly with the empress, but with Dongchang, so the information would be sent to Zhou An first, and then Zhou An would present it to the empress.

In such a sensitive period, this kind of good news is naturally exciting.

Zhou An glanced at the empress's expression, but his mood was very delicate.

Li Guangshan has made such an immortal contribution, things are good, but they are ......

The empress mentioned Li Ping before, indicating that she was still thinking about the marriage between Princess Yunjing and Li Ping, and she was still very optimistic about Li Ping, and now, Li Guangshan's merits are extremely dazzling, and his appointment as the first auxiliary minister of the cabinet is almost a certainty.

This identity, this status!

This seems to have increased the possibility that the empress will marry Princess Yunjing to Li Ping!
