Chapter 98: Appreciation
The news of Xu Jingye's occupation of Yangzhou soon spread to Luoyang, and the corner of the martial queen's mouth smiled, and people presented the document issued by Xu Jingye.
When Empress Wu saw the first paragraph, she was scolding her past, smiling and ignoring it.
When Empress Wu saw the second paragraph, she was praising Xu Jingye for being a rat, and smiled contemptuously in her heart.
When Empress Wu saw the third paragraph, when she read "A handful of loess is not dry, and the six-foot lonely He Tuo", she couldn't help but exclaim: "It is the fault of the prime minister that such a talented person has not arrived at the court!" ”
After reading the last paragraph, Empress Wu really paid attention to Xu Jingye's rebellion.
After Wenjun was dedicated to Wu Cao by Princess Taiping, she was depressed all day long, and served Empress Wu in a trance. ”
Wen Jun was suddenly awakened and said, "Nothing? Think about what the Queen Mother thinks again. ”
"Oh, what does Hongu think?"
"The Queen Mother must be thinking about Xu Jingye's rebellion."
"And what do you think I'm going to do?" Empress Wu decidedly tested Wen Jundao.
When Wenjun was in Chang'an, she had already heard Xiang Lu talk about Xu Jingye, and Xiang Lu also proposed a coping strategy at that time. Wen Jun pretended to think for a while, and said, "The Queen Mother doesn't need to worry, Xu Jingye's rebellion can last for a month or two at most." “
When Empress Wu heard this, her interest immediately increased, and she asked, "How are you so sure?" ”
Xu Jingye was originally an incompetent rat, and was demoted to Liuzhou by the Queen Mother because of his crime. And Luo Bingwang and Wei Yuanzhong and others were just frustrated literati, and these people came up with the idea of rebellion as soon as they were hot-headed. Xu Jingye is timid by nature, but he is ambitious and talented, he will not take Luoyang directly, he will definitely go south to lay down Jinling, Jinling is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, then Xu Jingye's ambition will be exposed in front of the world, it is not to help Li Tang, in fact, it is to divide one party, to be an emperor, such a rebellious person, who is willing to die for him? ”
"Wenjun, I didn't expect you to be so resourceful at such a young age?" Empress Wu said with satisfaction, "Then what do you think of how this palace uses soldiers?" ”
"The Queen Mother only needs to send a respected clan figure as the commander, and then use a wise and resourceful person as his military advisor to actually control the army, so the world will not respond to Xu Jingye, Xu Jingye can win the first battle, but in the long run, the army will be disheartened, the food and grass will be insufficient, and the battle will be crushed. At that time, Xu Jingye must have fled to a foreign country, and he was afraid that he would be killed by his subordinates to ask the queen of heaven for his guilt. ”
Empress Wu looked at Wen Jun carefully, then took her hand and said, "You really look like this palace, this palace will see you as my righteous daughter!" ”
Wen Jun reluctantly said: "No, I hope that the Queen Mother will let me go back to Chang'an after quelling the rebellion." ”
Empress Wu smiled: "You can go wherever you want?" But you must be my daughter-in-law, or you will not be able to go anywhere. ”
When Wen Jun heard this, she quickly knelt down and said, "Then thank you, godmother." “
Empress Wu smiled and thought to herself: "My first daughter was strangled to death by herself, I'm afraid this little girl is her reincarnation!" ”
Seeing this, the surrounding maids were very polite to Wen Jun from then on, and even Shangguan Wan'er was very courteous to Wen Jun and had great respect.
A day later, Wu Cao angrily went to bed and threw a secret letter on the table, Wen Jun picked it up and looked at it, and wrote:
Xu Jingye is a new resourceful, named Sima Xianglu, he and his wife arrived in Yangzhou, Luo Bin Wang and others are very respectful to him, I am afraid that this person is superior in wisdom and wisdom, and he is like a tiger to the rebels.
Wen Jun was stunned for a moment: Madam? Am I not in Luoyang? Who is that lady? Why is the husband not in Chang'an?
Empress Wu said angrily: "I didn't expect anyone to really take refuge in that bandit, after the rebellion is quelled, I will divide Sima Xianglu Wuma's body." “
