"Uncle, but it doesn't hurt. Xue Shao stiffened his face and replied indifferently.

Li Yao saw him so nervous, his heart was happy early in the morning, he knew that now the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor's relatives and relatives, all in order to protect themselves, so as not to be eradicated by Wu Zetian, he suddenly talked about his brother Xue Yi, which must have made Xue Shao nervous.

But even when it comes to this, Li Yao can't stop.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Yao said happily: "Queen Mother, Huaiyi seems to have heard that the elder brother of the concubine is quite close to the prince of Lang! Their relationship must be very good......."

"Uncle, what you said is wrong, my brother Xue Yi is far away in Fenghe, where can I have any friendship with Prince Lang? Before Li Yao could finish speaking, Xue Shao shouted anxiously and interrupted Li Yao.

No one in the Tang Dynasty knows, no one knows, Li Chong, the king of Langya, is Wu Zetian's sworn enemy! If it weren't for Li Chong's great power, Wu Zetian might have gotten rid of him early on, and whoever dared to get close to him would not be hitting Wu Zetian's muzzle?

Xue Shao was so anxious to clarify that his brother had nothing to do with Li Chong, didn't that show off his weakness from the opposite side? Therefore, this Xue Shao was still a little tender after all, if he was a little more experienced, he would definitely not be as nervous and anxious as Xue Shao is now.

Li Yaole laughed and said: "Don Ma, why are you in such a hurry? I'll just say it casually! Anyway, I'm all hearsay, and you know it! Why be so nervous? As the saying goes, those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, and if you are like this, it will make us feel that you are empty-hearted!"

"Uncle, you ......" Xue Shao was speechless by Li Yao's words.

When the two of them said this, Wu Zetian, who was sitting opposite, his face was already gloomy to the extreme, she had always been cautious, and she would never tolerate the slightest hidden danger around her, Li Yao just said it casually, it really gave her a hard wake-up call, Wu Zetian was thinking in his heart for a while, he had to beware of the Xue family.

It's not that Xue Shao married his own daughter, so he had to treat his Xue family as his own, Wu Zetian is now sober up and has figured this matter out.

Looking up at Xue Shao, who looked embarrassed, Wu Zetian sneered: "What Huaiyi just said, you should be joking! But the mourning family seems to remember that your brother Xue Yi's Fenghe County Hou seems to have been promoted by the king of Langya, right?"

"This ......" Xue Shao was dumbfounded again.

"Then let's do it! Empress Dowager Ben will promote your brother to an official!" Xue Shao was dumbfounded again, and Wu Zetian suddenly reached out and patted the long case in front of him, and said this to Xue Shao.

Xue Shao chuckled in his heart, beads of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead, and he was completely panicked, often when Wu Zetian said such things, it proved that she had blacklisted the person who was going to be promoted, and as long as there was any unfavorable movement for this person in the future, she would definitely try her best to get rid of it.

She is such a ruthless woman, there is no doubt about that.

Li Yao didn't even dare to say a word when he saw Xue Shao bored there, and he cooperated happily: "Then the Queen Mother, I don't know what kind of official you want to promote Xue Yi?"

"How can the elder brother of the dignified Tang Dynasty Ma Ye only be a candidate of Fenghe County? In this way, transfer him to Jeju to be a historian! In this way, his official position will be as big as Di Renjie, and Jeju is not very far from Jingzhou, and the two can still take care of each other, which is very good. Wu Zetian lowered her head and thought for a while, and then she said this at a long time.

Li Yao was immediately dumbfounded.

According to historical records, when Xue Shao and Li Chong rebelled against Wu Zetian together, he was doing history in Jeju, and when he just learned that Xue Yi was now in Fenghe as a county candidate, Li Yao was still a little surprised, thinking that it was not the historian's record that was wrong, but he only knew now.

It turns out that Xue Yi made this history of Jeju, and all of this is due to himself, that is to say, Xue Yi in history became the history of Jeju because of the role of Feng Xiaobao that he accompanied, and now he said in front of Wu Zetian.

And Li Yao, he has not seen Xue Yi himself, and he doesn't know what kind of man he is, but judging from the fact that he dares to fight against Wu Zetian with Li Chong, he must be better than the Xue Shao in front of him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Xue Shao is an unlucky and soft man, Xue Yi is naturally more than twice as strong as him.

Just as Li Yao was sitting there, thinking about this, Xue Shao, who was sitting next to him, was already dumbfounded, or Princess Taiping walked around behind him and pinched him lightly, he reacted, quickly bowed to Wu Zetian, and thanked: "Brother Xue Shaodai, thank the Queen Mother for her great grace." ”

"No thanks, after lunch for a while, the mourning family will order Wan'er to draft a decree, and send it to Fenghe urgently for eight hundred miles, so that your brother can go to Jeju as soon as possible to take office!" Wu Zetian waved his hand lightly, with a look of disapproval.

Xue Shao nodded hurriedly, flustered in his heart.

Li Yao shook his head, and even more looked down on this Xue Shao in his heart, just such a little thing scared him like this, how can you let Li Yao look down on him?

And the next lunch, Xue Shao can be said to be frightened to eat, he didn't dare to say a word during the banquet, only stuffy his head to send something to his mouth, until Li Yao sat next to Wu Zetian, chatting with Wu Zetian while eating, the two chatted and laughed, happy, and put Princess Taiping to the side.

It wasn't until an hour later, after lunch, that Xue Shao hurriedly retired with Princess Taiping, left the cabinet in a hurry, and went back to Xue's mansion.

Among the Cabinet of the Royal Palace.

Xue Shao and Princess Taiping just left for a while, Wu Zetian ordered Shangguan Wan'er to draw up a holy decree, and then sent someone to send it to Xue Yi, it can be said that Wu Zetian's holy decree and Xue Yi's father's family letter were sent to seal the river one step before and after, as for whose letter Xue Yi will receive first, then this is another story.

After finishing this matter, Wu Zetian said to Shangguan Wan'er again: "Prepare a secret letter to Di Renjie." ”

"Queen Mother, do you want Master Di to spy on Xue Yi, so you promoted him to an official and transferred him to Jeju to do the history of the Emperor?" Li Yao asked in surprise.

"What is surveillance, don't say it so ugly, just keep an eye on his movements at any time. Wu Zetian replied to Li Yao indifferently.

Li Yao immediately pulled his face, speechless for a while, and thought to himself, Wu Zetian, this woman really deserves to be the great female emperor in Chinese history! In addition to being ruthless, she is so leakless that people can't gag under her nose, it seems that she will have to be careful in the future, otherwise, she may also lose her life!

Thinking about these things, Li Yao also quickly came back to his senses and said to Wu Zetian: "Then the Queen Mother, I will leave the palace for the time being, go back to send my father and mother back to the old house, and then come back at night to wait for the Queen Mother." ”

"Huaiyi! I seem to have heard that the old mansion where your father and mother live is the old mansion of the eldest grandson's family, right?" Wu Zetian suddenly asked Li Yao.

"Uh......" Li Yao was blocked at once, and he didn't know what to say.

What he was most afraid of was that Wu Zetian mentioned this, now it's okay, it's always coming, what else can Li Yao do if he is not nervous?

But Li Yao is not Xue Shao, he will not be like Xue Shao, he was panicked by Wu Zetian's words, after a short moment of nervousness, Li Yao quickly calmed down, and said quietly: "Queen Mother, the old house where my father and mother live is indeed the old house of the eldest grandson's family, but this house was won by me from An Daomai, that night in Linglou, I tried his sword skills with him and won him, so he gave me the old house." ”

"You dare to ask for the old house of the eldest grandson's family, you are really not afraid of offending the mourning family!" Wu Zetian sneered.

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins, if the Queen Mother doesn't like Huaiyi's father and mother to live there, then Huaiyi will go back and ask her father and mother to move to Yifu. Li Yao hurriedly knelt down for Wu Zetian, bowed his head and shouted long.

Wu Zetian thought about it, when Li Yao won this house before, he actually didn't know that An Daomai would give him this old mansion of the eldest grandson's family, so he was an unintentional mistake, and it couldn't be said to be a big sin, if he was so careful with him, it would be a little unreasonable.

And Li Yao is very useful to himself, of course Wu Zetian will not be like this because of this little thing, and what to Li Yao, only by giving Li Yao kindness first, can he catch him as a person and let him do things for himself with all his heart, this is Wu Zetian's woman's scheming.

Therefore, Wu Zetian nodded with relief, and said to Li Yao: "Those who don't know are not guilty, even if you didn't know about this before, the mourning family doesn't blame you, you can keep the house! ”

Empress Dowager Xie was tolerant and grateful. Li Yao breathed a long sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Wu Zetian.

He really felt a lot lighter on his body for a while, the pressure on him from Wu Zetian just now was too great, if Wu Zetian wanted to blame him, then he was not afraid at all, anyway, he had a rotten life, life and death were the same, but he was afraid that Wu Zetian would attack An Babu and others, then Li Yao would really be in pain.

Wu Zetian can say this now, and Li Yao is completely relieved.
