Daming Palace, Xianju Palace, a eunuch hurriedly ran into the palace.

"Niangniang, General Liu Yi has already announced that he is waiting outside!" The eunuch bowed and reported in a low voice.

Wu Zetian, who was talking to Shangguan Wan'er, raised his eyebrows and said to the eunuch who came to report: "Let him wait outside the palace for a while..."

"Yes, sis!" The eunuch bowed again and withdrew from the palace.

"General Liu, Niangniang, please wait!" The eunuch ran in small steps to Liu Yi, who was waiting outside the hall, and said with a wave of dust.

For Liu Yi, a popular person in a high position who will become the concubine of Princess Taiping, no one in the palace dares to be disrespectful to him, and he is cautious when he speaks, and the eunuch next to Wu Zetian is the same, he doesn't dare to put on a stand as usual, and he is still standing not far from Liu Yi after replying, afraid that Liu Yi will have something to ask him.

Liu Yi frowned and motioned for the eunuch to step aside, and glanced at the hall a few times, he couldn't figure out what Wu Zetian was doing, he just received a call from Wu Zetian, saying that Wu Zetian had something important to send him over to discuss, but he didn't expect that he would come over, and he would have to wait outside the palace.

There was a firm scratch in his heart, Liu Yi was still obediently waiting outside the Immortal Palace, pacing back and forth a little uneasily, he was guessing what Wu Zetian was calling him to order today.

After a few days of vacation, Liu Yi received an order from the palace to enter the palace to be on duty, as Shangguan Wan'er said that day, this time it was not to return to Qianniu Weizhong, but to be mainly responsible for the affairs of the Yulin Army, to replace Liu Renjing, who had left the post, and to take charge of the Right Yulin Army together with Li Duozuo and Qi Biming.

Liu Yi was on duty twice in the Yulin Army before the expedition as a lieutenant general of the Yulin Army, but it was under the direct command of Liu Renjing, and he was only responsible for the vigilance task in the area of Lingxiao Gate west of Xuanwu Gate. was entrusted with the post of general of the right leading guard of the school, and Liu Yi directly took over his position and took charge of the guard task in the Xuanwu Gate area.

The Yulin Army is similar to other guards, the general is not directly responsible for military affairs, but two generals are in charge of specific military affairs, but the important surname of the Yulin Army because of this town position has its special surname, when the Yulin Army was just established, even the post of general may be inspected by the generals of other guards, so that the general has more responsibilities than other guards.

The position of the Beiya Forbidden Army is too important, and the system of inspecting and leading the school was originally formulated to prevent the generals of the Beiya Forbidden Army stationed in the north of the imperial city from plotting against them, so they did not set up the post of general of the Yulin Army, and the other generals of the guards inspected and led the school, but now this situation has slowly changed, only two of the four generals of the Yulin Army are inspected and led, and two have been directly appointed as the generals of the Yulin Army, that is, the general of the right Yulin Army, Qi Biming, and the general of the left Yulin Army, Cheng Wuting.

Liu Yi guessed that he would directly lead the army in the Yulin Army, Wu Zetian must have given some orders, and he must have called him here for this reason, but he couldn't understand why he was asked to wait outside for a long time.

After a while, Liu Yi felt that he had waited for more than a quarter of an hour, and he didn't see anyone pass him in, so he felt abnormal, and wanted to ask the eunuch waiting on the side, but he saw a person coming out of the immortal hall, and he took a closer look, it was Shangguan Wan'er.

Shangguan Wan'er walked in the direction where Liu Yi was standing, with a flat face and no expression.

"General Liu, I've kept you waiting, Niangniang let you in, please come with the next official!" Shangguan Wan'er saluted Liu Yi and said softly.

"Thank you for the lawsuit!" Liu Yi returned the salute, looked at Shangguan Wan'er's pretended reserved face, pretended to be serious, and thought of the crazy appearance of this delicate beauty on her bed in the rented room she was renting, and couldn't help grinning.

When the two of them were facing each other, the battle was fierce, and after scoring two goals, this beauty with a revenge mentality finally collapsed like soft mud, lost her strength, slept for a long time, and only after eating something did she come back to her strength.

Shangguan Wan'er seemed to understand the meaning of Liu Yi's evil smile, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she glared at Liu Yi angrily, eager to stop and kick Liu Yi a few times, tear his mouth, and hold his ears to warn him not to laugh so badly, otherwise he would not be finished with him.

But thinking that when Liu Yi brought her physical and mental satisfaction, there was still a sense of happiness that came up.

That day, Shangguan Wan'er came back to the palace in the evening of the day when she was full of reluctance, Liu Yi gave her love, ** pleasure, spiritual comfort, especially the pride after seeing Liu Yi leave an eternal memory with her own teeth, Shangguan Wan'er's original grievances and losses have been eliminated. Seeing Liu Yi again today, her heart was beating wildly, just like the feeling when she was held by Liu Yi for the first time, Liu Yi's ambiguous eyes made her heart pound, but Shangguan Wan'er had been in the palace for many years, and her emotions were still under control, and after a moment of gaffe, she immediately came back to her senses and recovered a serious face.

"Wan'er, are you okay when you come back?" Liu Yi saw that there was no one on the side and asked cautiously.

Shangguan Wan'er, who had just calmed down, shook as if she had been pricked by a needle, glanced at Liu Yi again, shook her head gently, and didn't wait for Liu Yi to ask anything more, and walked towards the hall quickly.

Liu Yi had to follow up quickly.

"Wechen knocks on the queen of heaven!" Liu Yi stepped forward and saluted.

"Flat!" Wu Zetian motioned for Liu Yi to be exempt from courtesy, and said to Shangguan Wan'er, "Wan'er, you wait outside the hall..."

"Yes, sis!" Shangguan Wan'er gave a salute and retreated without looking at Liu Yi.

Wu Zetian got up and walked to Liu Yi's side, and stood at a distance of about one step, "Yi'an, you will get married in a few days, and I also have a few words I want to say to you alone in this palace!"

"If Niangniang has any orders, just say it, Weichen must obey the order!" Before the mother-in-law marries her daughter, it seems that she generally has to tell her son-in-law, and it seems that Wu Zetian, the queen mother who will become the mother-in-law, is no exception.

"Taiping has always insisted that you should not marry, and this palace also thinks that you are a good talent, and your performance in all aspects is very good, so after thinking about it again, I also agreed to take you as Taiping's concubine," Wu Zetian said warmly, "Taiping has been surnamed since childhood, Your Majesty and this palace are all up to her, I hope that after you get married, you can also follow her surname a little, she plays a small surname or something, don't worry about her, this palace and Your Majesty are such a daughter, I hope she can be happy, this is her own choice of marriage, I don't want her to regret it in the future..."

Listening to Wu Zetian's words that were close to orders and requests, Liu Yi felt slightly uncomfortable, but also a little moved, and hurriedly agreed: "Please rest assured, the minister will definitely treat the princess well, and will spoil her for the rest of her life and make her happy..."

"This palace also knows that Taiping has always been willing to listen to your orders, which is a good thing, I just hope you don't force her to do anything..."

Liu Yi was startled, and hurriedly responded, "The minister knows, the minister doesn't dare to force the princess to do anything..."The old woman in front of her, who will become her mother-in-law, must know that she uses some means to make Princess Taiping willing to do things for herself, and may even know about Shangguan Wan'er, Wu Zetian This is Wen Yan's warning, how can Liu Yi not hear the overtone in these words!

"It's good to understand!" After Wu Zetian said in a deep voice again, his tone slowed down, "Yi'an, this palace has always admired your talent and learning, and has been giving you reuse in the past few years, and now I have married the most beloved daughter of this palace to you, and I also put the most important guard task in the palace, and the position of guarding the Xuanwu Gate is up to you, I just hope that you don't bear the trust of this palace..."

"Please rest assured, the minister must obey the mother's life, the mother has any orders, the minister will go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up!" Liu Yi straightened his chest and agreed without any hesitation.

"I hope this palace didn't see the wrong person!" After Wu Zetian glanced at Liu Yi a few times, a smile appeared in his eyes.

It's just that this smile made Liu Yi feel cold, and he didn't know how to respond all of a sudden, and after hesitating for a while, he said a little sneeringly: "If there is any abnormal situation in the palace, the minister will report it to Niangniang as soon as possible..."

"When the two generals Huan Yanfan and Jinghui who followed you on the expedition, what do you think of them?" Wu Zetian was noncommittal and asked again.

"Loyal and righteous generals, can be trusted and reused!" Liu Yi said without thinking.

"Okay, let them transfer to the Right Feather Forest Army and serve under you!" Wu Zetian said without hesitation.

"Thank you for your trust!" Liu Yi was overjoyed.

"Are you still called a mother?" Wu Zetian finally showed a smile that seemed quite gentle to Liu Yi.

Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, and quickly changed his words: "Thank you, mother-in-law!"

"Alright, go ahead, I'll let you know something!" Wu Zetian waved his hand in satisfaction.

"It's... Retire!" After Liu Yi gave the salute, he turned around and withdrew from the hall, and he felt sweat all over his body.

When Liu Yi walked out of the hall, he looked at Shangguan Wan'er who was waiting outside the hall a few times, Shangguan Wan'er seemed to understand what he meant, and asked him not to worry, Liu Yi didn't stay any longer, and left the hall-

On the tower of the Xuanwu Gate in the north of the Daming Palace, Liu Yi, dressed in military uniform, stood on the edge of the battlements, looking at the scenery in the Daming Palace in the south.

Behind him are Huan Yanfan and Jinghui, who were entrusted with the post of lieutenant general of the Yulin Army because of Liu Yi's statement in front of Wu Zetian.

On the third day after Liu Yi listened to Wu Zetian's instructions, Liu Yi just went to the Yulin Army camp to report for a while, and received a report that a newly appointed Yulin Army Zhonglang would report for duty.

"General, the Xuanwu Gate is indeed the most important gate in the palace..."Huan Yanfan stood beside Liu Yi, looked at the overlapping palaces and pavilions in the Daming Palace, and said in a low voice.

"We have the emperor's order, we are on duty at the Xuanwu Gate, and we can't afford to lose at any time!" Liu Yi didn't look back, and said in an emotionless tone, "At all times, you must obey the orders of this general..."

"Yes, general, the last general will only obey the general's order!" Huan Yanfan and Jinghui replied firmly...
