At night, the side hall of the Luoyang Imperial Palace in the capital.

In the side hall, there were only Wu Zetian and the jade-faced fox, who seemed to be discussing something.

The jade-faced fox was surprised, "Is this really the case?"

Wu Zetian was uneasy for a while, nodded and said, "I dream of the first emperor in the night, and there is a demon fox breaking into the palace, is it a bad omen?"

The jade-faced fox groaned, "The emperor dreamed of the emperor at night, and a demon fox broke into the palace, so in this way, Gonggong Hong must have been frightened by the demon fox, which caused him to fall down the steps......" said in his heart, "Demon fox? Could it be that this old woman has discovered something? So you deliberately tempted me?" Hurriedly said, "Has the emperor ever seen what that demon fox looks like?"

Wu Zetian thought for a moment and said irritably, "I woke up from a dream at that time, how can I see clearly...... But what does it look like...... It's very white, it looks like a fox, yes, a snow-white fox......

The jade-faced fox looked at Wu Zetian's frightened expression, and said in his heart: "It doesn't look like it's fake, could it be that this seat is too careful......

Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "What are you doing in a daze? I ask you, is this a bad omen? Or maybe something filthy has broken into the palace?"

The jade-faced fox came back to his senses, hesitated and said, "The emperor is calm and don't be impatient, wait for Weichen to count." said that he poked his finger and groaned......

After a while, Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "How is it? Have you figured it out?"

The jade-faced fox nodded, "Count it out."

Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "How is it?"

The jade-faced fox groaned, "I'm afraid this is a great bad omen."

Wu Zetian was surprised, "Huh?"

The jade-faced fox bowed down and said, "The emperor dreams of Emperor Taizong at night, this matter is unknown, plus the emperor woke up and saw the fox squatting on the dragon bed, between the two, it is already very obvious."

Wu Zetian was taken aback and muttered, "Emperor Taizong, the fox ......."

The jade-faced fox's heart moved, and he hurriedly said, "Taizong's name is Li Shimin, and the surname Li is the surname of the first dynasty, and the raccoon dog of this fox ...... It's just right, the two appear together, Your Majesty, isn't that clear enough?"

Wu Zetian was surprised: "The national teacher is talking about ......."

The jade-faced fox nodded and said, "This is Emperor Taizong's desire to force the emperor to hand over the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Wu Zetian was shocked: "Hand over the Great Zhou Jiangshan?"

The jade-faced fox nodded and said, "Weichen thinks that this matter must not be done."

Wu Zetian looked at the jade-faced fox in surprise and pondered, "My country was originally brought down by Emperor Taizong, why can't I return the country to the Li family now?"

The jade-faced fox said, "With all due respect, if the emperor returns the country to the Li family, I am afraid that the world will immediately set off a bloody storm."

Wu Zetian was taken aback, and the jade-faced fox continued: "Weichen has a saying, I don't know if to say it or not?"

Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "But it doesn't hurt to say!"

The jade-faced fox said cautiously: "Weichen is also hearsay, when my Great Zhou Dynasty was established at the beginning, there were many ministers and Li clan people who opposed the emperor, and the emperor immediately made a decision and swept away some of the opponents...... Among them, there are many descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasties......

Wu Zetian was taken aback, annoyed for a while, and said dissatisfiedly, "What do you want to say, National Teacher?"

The jade-faced fox hurriedly said: "Weichen is afraid that the Li family is in charge of the country, and they will retaliate against the Wu clan and use ruthless measures, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the Wu clan will ...... It will destroy the people and the ......."

Wu Zetian said angrily, "How dare he?"

The jade-faced fox was startled, and hurriedly said, "The emperor is angry."

Wu Zetian was annoyed for a while, and calmed down and said, "Xian'er is kind-hearted, he won't do such a thing."

The jade-faced fox said carefully: "Even if the prince doesn't, it is inevitable that those who were dissatisfied with the martial arts family in the past will not pry the prince, and the prince will ......."

Wu Zetian was taken aback, and said in his heart: "Xian'er's ears are soft, this ......" and wondered, "Then what good way do you have to do it?"

The jade-faced fox thought for a moment and said, "The emperor is wise and martial, and the current situation is the best, and this balance will not be unfavorable to anyone."

Wu Zetian was impatient

"Don't say good things, I'm talking about a thousand years later."

The jade-faced fox was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "The emperor has a long life, and he has eaten the elixir of immortality from Weichen, and he should be blessed with a long life......

Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, and said bitterly: "Longevity? National Teacher, do you really think that I believe that there is any elixir of immortality in the world?"

The jade-faced fox was shocked, and Wu Zetian said, "You don't need to worry, I don't want to blame you, if I really want to blame, I don't have to wait until today."

The jade-faced fox was frightened, "Your Majesty ......."

Wu Zetian muttered, "National Teacher, do you know why Emperor Taizong died at a young age?"

The jade-faced fox was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Weichen doesn't know."

Wu Zetian sighed and said, "Although Emperor Taizong was old and occasionally had minor illnesses, he did not die, but it was only because he was superstitious about immortality and took pills for a long time, which caused his illness to worsen and finally took his life."

The more the jade-faced fox listened, the more frightened he became, and he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the elixir refined by Weichen is passed down by an immortal, and it will never harm the emperor."

Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, hesitated and helped up the jade-faced fox and said, "The national teacher is calm and restless, I don't mean that your pill is not good, and I feel that after taking your pill, my whole person feels much better, and even if it is the imperial doctor, he also praises the national teacher for the efficacy of your elixir."

The jade-faced fox said worriedly, "The emperor is wise."

Wu Zetian pondered for a moment and said, "Don't you have a good way?"

The jade-faced fox hurriedly said, "Weichen doesn't dare to discuss the government."

Wu Zetian stopped and said, "You don't have to worry, although I have been thinking about it in my heart, I am afraid that if I delay for a long time, I will be powerless at that time."

The jade-faced fox hesitated, and hurriedly said, "In this case, Weichen has an idea."

Wu Zetian was surprised: "Oh? Tell me about it."

The jade-faced fox said: "The emperor established the Great Zhou Dynasty of the martial family, and Weichen thought that this was the mandate of heaven and the will of heaven, which showed that the Li family was exhausted, and God wanted to let the martial family own the world and stretch for thousands of generations...... If the emperor insists on changing Jiangshan's surname to Li again, I'm afraid it will be...... It's against the will of God."

Wu Zetian was puzzled, "What does the national teacher mean?"

The jade-faced fox said carefully, "Why doesn't the emperor obey the will of heaven and let Jiang Shan continue to be surnamed Wu......

Wu Zetian was taken aback and hesitated: "But now that many ministers in the court are inclined to the Li family, how is this good?"

The jade-faced fox said, "This is not difficult, the emperor can let the Wu and Li families make an oath in the temple and live in harmony for generations, which can prevent them from having conflicts in the future."

Wu Ze thought for a moment and nodded, "Well, this plan seems to be feasible...... That national teacher, in the Wu clan, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend."

The jade-faced fox hesitated, and said carefully, "Could it be that the emperor still has no suitable candidate in his heart?"

Wu Zetian said: "The national teacher might as well say it directly."

The jade-faced fox hesitated, and said carefully, "How is King Heng'an?"

Wu Zetian was puzzled: "You said leisurely?"

The jade-faced fox nodded, "Exactly."

Wu Zetian shook his head and said, "He, he has always been uninterested in politics, and even a little disgusted, no."

The jade-faced fox muttered, "What about King Liang?"

Wu Zetian thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Although Sansi is young and promising, his qualifications are not high, and he may not be able to convince the public."

The jade-faced fox pondered, "In this case, if you talk about prestige, I'm afraid there is only King Wei."

Wu Zetian was puzzled: "Heir?"

The jade-faced fox nodded and said, "King Wei has made great contributions to the emperor's ascension to the throne and the consolidation of the foundation of the Great Zhou, and he is very famous in the court, and he also respects the emperor, so he must be able to convince the public."

Wu Zetian pondered, "Inheritance...... Well, according to the national teacher, he is indeed the most suitable candidate......

The jade-faced fox was secretly happy in his heart, and said in his heart: "Wu Chenghei is just a pawn of this throne, as long as he is made the crown prince, won't this seat be like a tiger with wings, and when the time comes, even if he inherits the throne, this seat will be taken over, it will be easy." "Gong

I am glad that there is a successor to the emperor."

Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Is there a successor?" After thinking for a moment, he said, "This matter is very important, let me think about it again...... Stand down!"

The jade-faced fox was stunned for a moment, hesitated and said, "It's the emperor, Weichen has retired." As he spoke, he bowed and withdrew.

Wu Zetian stood in the hall for a while and muttered, "King Wei ......."

Outside the door, the jade-faced fox walked down the steps, suddenly stopped, attached himself to the steps and observed, glued down the steps, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, looking thoughtful......

At night, the side hall of the Luoyang Imperial Palace in the capital.

Gonggong Hong was lying on the couch, and only Wu Zetian was sitting aside.

Wu Zetian looked at Gonggong Hong with concern, and couldn't help but recall in his mind:

In the Taizong Dynasty, the young Wu Zetian had just been selected as a talented person, and Gonggong Hong walked in the garden anxiously with a team of newly selected talents into the palace.

Suddenly, Wu Zetian, who was walking at the end, accidentally fell to the ground with an "oops" sound.

Seeing this, Gonggong Hong hurriedly rushed over and said, "What's wrong?"

Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "My foot is twisted."

Gonggong Hong was surprised: "Twisted? Why did you twist it at this time, really, quickly, I'll see." He looked at it carefully and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal." He said, "Stand up and try."

Wu Zetian tried to stand up and walked down, and said happily, "Ah, it's okay, okay."

Gonggong Hong smiled and said, "Let's go, if it's late, the emperor will be unhappy."

Wu Zetian hurriedly said, "Father-in-law Xie, father-in-law Xie." A burst of gratitude.

……

Wu Zetian muttered to himself, "That day, if it weren't for you, my fate would probably be different...... Later, in the deep palace of deceitful and deceitful, you helped me in three places...... So that I escaped the pursuit and returned to the palace from Ganye Temple...... Until she became a queen...... Ascending the throne and becoming emperor, you have always silently supported me...... We don't talk about anything, we talk about everything, like close friends, and now that you're asleep, I don't even have someone to talk to...... Xian'er, he was so scared of my mother that when he saw me, he trembled all over...... Dan'er also avoided me, and she didn't say a few words when she met...... Is I really that scary...... It's too peaceful, although she can say something, but when she gets married, she is always someone else's daughter-in-law, and the water spilled by the married daughter is not reliable...... And those so-called, my mother's family, they are one by one, one by one...... Looking at my throne, the country, I am afraid that I will forget them...... Vying to succeed me to the throne...... I finally understand now why, why since ancient times, emperors have called themselves lonely and lonely...... It turns out that I am now a real loner, I have so many children, but I am still a loner, you say ridiculous...... You're waking up, I just want to find someone close to me and say something......" As he spoke, tears couldn't help but quietly slide down his cheeks, which looked a little old......

Grandpa Hong is still asleep......

The next morning, the capital city of Luoyang cleared the void.

The four generals gathered in the secret room, discussing something with the jade-faced fox.

The Red Evil was puzzled, "King, you said that a fox demon broke into the palace?"

The jade-faced fox nodded and said, "And this seat can also be sure that the fox demon who broke into the emperor's bedroom is likely to be the remnant of the demon world we are looking for."

The Red Demon was surprised, "They? What are they doing in the palace?"

The jade-faced fox thought for a while and said, "This seat is not clear, but the emperor is actually safe and sound, and he only scared that Gonggong Hong to death."

Mei Niang was puzzled, "Grandpa Hong?"

The jade-faced fox said, "Well, all the imperial doctors can't help it, that's why they recruited this seat."

Fiercely said, "Then how is he? Are you awake?"

The jade-faced fox smiled, "With the ability of this seat, what is a mortal? The dead can revive him."

Mei Niang wondered, "Then he woke up?"

The jade-faced fox laughed, "He'll never wake up."
