When Liu Yi entered the Immortal Residence Palace, Wu Sansi had already left, and he should have walked through another door, anyway, Liu Yi, who was standing outside the hall, didn't see Wu Sansi's shadow coming out.

Liu Yijin saluted inside, and saw that Wu Zetian's expression was not unusual during the salute, and he relaxed a little.

Wu Zetian sat on the hall and looked at Liu Yi, who was hanging his head with a respectful expression, and said, "Yi'an, Taiping has returned to live in Lijing Palace, have you ever been to see him?" ”

Liu Yi hurriedly replied, "Back to Niangniang, the minister just came out of the Lijing Palace, the princess said that she was a little tired and needed to take a rest, and the minister also thought about some things to report to the mother, so she came over!"

"Taiping just has a body, need to take care of it, there are many people in the palace who have experience in this area, so the palace will let her enter the palace to live for some time, there are many people in the palace, Taiping has grown up here since childhood, the environment is more familiar, if there is no situation, before the birth, Taiping has been living in the palace can also be," Wu Zetian said and smiled, "The palace is such a daughter, she is married, she is really a little reluctant, and some words have not been said personally, Taiping is also, you are on duty in the palace many times, I don't have to talk to anyone, she comes to the palace like this, and the palace can also go over to visit from time to time, talk to her, you are on duty, and you can also talk to her in the palace!"

"Thank you Niangniang for being so considerate and caring, and the ministers are very grateful!" Liu Yi said and saluted respectfully.

Wu Zetian motioned to Liu Yi to be exempt, "Yi'an, don't see you like this, Taiping is the daughter of His Majesty and the palace, this is our son-in-law, they are all a family, don't say two things as a family, there are still many things in the palace that you need to do, presumably Your Majesty has also instructed you a lot of things, you can't live up to the expectations of Your Majesty and the palace!"

Hearing Wu Zetian say this, Liu Yi knew that it was time for him to show his loyalty, and he was ready to say what he had considered at the moment, "Niangniang, Your Majesty and the ministers said..."

Unexpectedly, Wu Zetian interrupted Liu Yi's words, "You don't have to say... What His Majesty told you, that was His Majesty's order, this palace didn't dare to know, and I didn't want to know, and you couldn't tell anyone, you know? ”

Wu Zetian stared at Liu Yi sternly as he spoke, and Liu Yi had to keep his mouth shut and snorted: "Your Majesty loves the princess as much as Niangniang, I hope that the minister can always treat the princess well, and I also hope that the minister can be loyal to the country, and the minister will definitely fulfill his duties and repay the trust of His Majesty and Niangniang with practical actions..."

Listening to Liu Yi's words, Wu Zetian didn't say anything abnormal, but said lightly: "This palace thinks that you have always been loyal and commendable, so I have always suggested that Your Majesty give you reuse, and Your Majesty has also agreed, presumably in a few more days, there will be some new positions awarded to you, I hope you will not live up to the trust of Your Majesty and this palace, and do what you have to do..."

"Yes, Niangniang, the minister will not disappoint Niangniang!" Liu Yi straightened his chest and replied loudly.

"Good!" Wu Zetian showed a slightly satisfied look, "This palace knows that you won't disappoint... What is there in this palace that will be passed on to you! It's not early, you go first!"

"Yes, mother, the minister retires!" Liu Yi said and withdrew.

Shangguan Wan'er, who looked nervous, saw Liu Yi walking out and walked quickly to greet him, with an inquiring look on her face.

Liu Yi showed a relaxed smile, shook his head and said to Shangguan Wan'er that there was nothing wrong.

Shangguan Wan'er was about to go in to serve Wu Zetian, but the two didn't speak, so they broke up, Shangguan Wan'er went into the palace, and Liu Yi went out of the palace and went back to the house directly.

However, Liu Yi went out of the palace with a question.

Wu Zetian's attitude made Liu Yi very puzzled, why didn't he ask Li Zhi what he said to him? After Liu Yi returned home, he was locked in the room and thought about it for a long time, and he also understood a little, although he couldn't be sure that Wu Zetian thought so, but Liu Yi believed that Wu Zetian didn't ask about himself, which was to further show himself how she believed in herself.

Li Zhi will tell himself something, Liu Yi feels that Wu Zetian can guess after a little thought, the big deal is to pay for something big, maybe Wu Zetian is confident that he can get it out of Li Zhi's mouth, so he doesn't want to ask himself, thinking of this, Liu Yi is a little calmer.

But Liu Yi thought of something else, Li Zhi's illness was beyond his surprise, he didn't know the exact age of Li Zhi's death in history, but according to what he said today, when he saw Li Zhi's illness, he shouldn't be able to endure it for a long time.

Li Zhi's condition is serious, and those ministers in high positions in the DPRK and China see it in their eyes, and it is possible that many people are already planning and preparing for this, Liu Yi feels that his preparation should be greater than others.

Liu Yi feels that now because he is still young, he has not accepted the actual power center of the Tang Dynasty, although the identity of General Qianniuwei and the general of the inspection school Yulin Army is not low, but such a level of military position will not be too renewal, unless he has other aspects, especially the civilian position, and it is not a low position, then it will be further noticed, coupled with the identity of the horse, the weight of speaking in the court will be different, in order to have an impact on the current situation.

Liu Yi also thought of another point, that is, it is possible that Wu Zetian will hide Li Zhi's illness, so that most people, including the crown prince Li Xian and other ministers in the court, do not know Li Zhi's condition, this is not a good thing, Li Zhi's illness must be known to outsiders at any time, especially Li Xian and those ministers who speak in the court, thinking of this, Liu Yi called Liu Quan, who was waiting in the palace, instructing him to leave the city early in the morning, and bring the personal guards trained outside the city into the city, Most of them were stationed in the two courtyards rented by the plaintiffs, and a small number of people lived in the princess's mansion in order to contact others at any time and carry out special tasks.

Liu Yi thought of Pei Xingjian, who was sick in bed like Li Zhi, and was a little hesitant to talk to Pei Xingjian about today's events, listen to his opinion, and after thinking for a while, he still dispelled the idea of visiting Pei Xingjian overnight, and wanted to wait and talk.

Liu Yi was still reclining on the couch thinking about things, thinking that he was a little sleepy and a little drowsy later, and when he was in a daze, he heard a very soft voice from outside the house: "Master Ma, dinner is ready, do you come out to eat, or bring it in for you..."

Liu Yi opened his eyes and saw that it was already dark, and he had been thinking about it in the house for a long time.

When he came to his senses, his stomach was also a little hungry, and then listening to the voice of Xiao Yunzhao outside, Liu Yi's hunger in his stomach became even stronger, and he immediately ordered: "Bring the food to the room..."

"Yes, Master Pony!" Xiaoyun replied as if relieved.

After a while, the door was opened, and Xiao Yun, who was dressed a little differently from Ping Yue, commanded the other subordinates to bring in the wine and food, and set them up in the outhouse, and everyone else retreated, only Xiao Yun stayed.

"Master Pony, let the slave serve you for dinner!" Xiaoyun lowered his head, didn't dare to look at Liu Yi, and said in a very soft voice.

"It's okay, I'll do it myself!" Liu Yi was a little puzzled about how Xiaoyun was going to serve herself, did she always eat this meal by herself, and Princess Taiping was nothing special when she was in the house, so she couldn't be fed by others.

Hearing Liu Yi say this, Xiaoyun moved his mouth, but didn't say anything, picked up the wine jug and prepared to pour wine for Liu Yi.

Liu Yi stopped Xiaoyun from pouring wine, "Xiaoyun, today the princess is not in the house, and it is tasteless for me to drink alone, so I don't need to prepare wine, just serve me a bowl of rice and eat my stomach!"

"Yes, colt!" Xiaoyun replied very lightly and filled a bowl of rice for Liu Yi.

Liu Yi ate the meal quickly, only ate a few dishes, and then motioned to Xiao Yun, who was waiting on the side, to clean up the remaining meals.

Xiaoyun commanded the people to come in, pack up the dishes, clean up the house, give a salute, and retreat.

Liu Yi stood alone in front of the window and watched the night scene in the house for a while, and after a while, it began to rain, and Liu Yi also closed the window, preparing to go to bed earlier.

There was a soft knock on the door, and then Xiaoyun's voice rang out, "Horse, slave maid come to serve you to sleep..."

"Come in!" After Liu Yi answered, Xiaoyun pushed the door in and inserted the latch.

Liu Yi, who saw that Xiao Yun's clothes were a little different from those of Ping, saw Xiao Yun bolt the door, and looked at Xiao Yun who came over with some surprise.

"Concubine, the princess has commanded, let the slave and maid serve you and rest in peace!" Xiaoyun's voice was very soft, and he stood beside Liu Yi with his head down and a red face.

Liu Yi, who had already understood, was a little embarrassed, and he was also blaming Princess Taiping for such an arrangement, so he smiled and said: "No need today, I can sleep alone, you can go back and rest!"

Xiao Yun's face changed when he heard this, and he raised his head suddenly and looked at Liu Yi in horror, "Does the concubine dislike slaves?" This is what the princess commanded... The concubine drove the slave and the maid out, and the princess came back to punish the slave and the maid..."

Liu Yi shook his head, "I'm tired today, I want to rest early, I have to think about some things, I want to be alone, and the princess enters the palace for a day or two... Do you understand? ”

So many things have happened today, Princess Taiping has just left the palace and entered the palace, Liu Yi is not in the mood, and there is no reason to spoil the maids around him, even if Princess Taiping orders it, this kind of good thing to do will be done when she is in a good mood!

After thinking for a while, Xiao Yun's face flushed again, nodded, and said softly: "That... The slave maid will make the quilt for you and leave..."

Two days later, the imperial court issued an edict, announcing some personnel appointments and dismissals, the right guard general Wu Sansi Xing guarded the middle post, the official servant Wei Xuantong was transferred to the inspection school Zhongshu waiter, Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin, Liu Yi also led the inspection of the school military department waiter, Li Jingjia and Hua Dazhi, who stayed in Anbei, were also recalled to Beijing, respectively appointed as the left and right Jin Wuwei generals, the Ministry of Works, Di Renjie, as the Xingbu waiter, and concurrently led the Dali Temple Shaoqing, Luo Bin Wang served as the Dali Temple Shaoqing, did not agree with Liu Renliang's request to resign...
