In the next three months, Li Yao only secretly kept in mind the matter of Shen Nanmiao's pit Shangguan Wan'er, and did not show much dissatisfaction with Shen Nanmiao, on the contrary, every time he saw Shen Nanmiao, Li Yao also gave him some strong pills for him to eat, and warned him to serve Wu Zetian well.
Shen Nanmiao also felt that Li Yao was very good to him, so he was not wary of Li Yao.
690 A.D., September 9.
That is, three months after Li Yao sent Wu Zetian "The Great Cloud Sutra", Wu Zetian officially ascended the throne and became the first female emperor in Chinese history.
After officially becoming emperor, Wu Zetian immediately abolished the Tang Dynasty, established the Zhou Dynasty, called himself the "Holy Spirit Emperor", changed the Yuan to "Heavenly Grant", and was known as "Wu Zhou" in history, officially becoming an unprecedented and veritable generation of empresses in Chinese history, and began her 15-year reign.
At this time, Wu Zetian was 67 years old, and he could definitely be said to be the oldest emperor in Chinese history when he ascended the throne.
This year, Wu Zetian named Confucius as "Longdao Gong", respected Confucian etiquette as the orthodoxy of a hundred schools, and also according to the suggestions of Li Yao and Lou Shide, named Di Renjie the first prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, showing his absolute importance to Di Renjie, for which Di Renjie was quite grateful.
It's just that Di Renjie understands in his heart that Wu Zetian actually doesn't look down on him at all, but now there are few capable people in the Great Zhou Dynasty, I'm afraid there are few people, he is lucky, and he was recommended by Li Yao and Lou Shide again and again, otherwise, the position of the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty would not be his turn.
The night of the second day of Wu Zetian's accession to the throne.
In order to congratulate Li Yao, he personally came to the Palace of Eternal Life and sent his blessings to Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian saw that Li Yao was coming, she was very happy, and personally pulled Li Yao into the room in the Palace of Eternal Life, and said to Li Yao: "I can have today, thanks to your help over the years, now I have successfully sat on the throne, what do you want me to reward you?"
"Your Majesty, I don't want anything, I just want the emperor to do one thing. Li Yao said softly.
"What's the matter?" Wu Zetian asked curiously.
Li Yao was silent for a few seconds before he replied: "That is Li Dan, who is now the emperor's heir, I hope the emperor can treat him well." ā
"You ......" Wu Zetian listened to the silence for a while.
She couldn't understand why Li Yao suddenly cared about Li Dan.
You must know that as soon as she ascended the throne yesterday, she abolished Li Dan, and now she will lock Li Dan in the East Palace, if she really wants to say that she is good to him, it is simply false, if she can be good to him, Wu Zetian will not make him the heir of the emperor, only let him have the nature of the crown prince, but not give him the title of crown prince.
Li Yao has crossed over from the 21st century, and he knows what will happen in the future, so he naturally understands that Li Dan has two things in his life, one is his mother, and he has to be in love;
But in any case, Li Dan's evaluation in history is that he is very kind-hearted and does not cherish the throne, although it is because of this that the two make the throne a little humiliated, but it is precisely because of this that Li Dan has kept a safe life, and in this troubled era of the Tang Dynasty, he was able to die old and have a good ending.
Then let's ask, such a person, how could Li Yao bear to watch him being treated like this by Wu Zetian?
Because of these reasons, Li Yao was straightforward and persuaded: "Your Majesty, forgive Huaiyi and say it bluntly, Li Dan is generous, does not fight or fight, if the emperor you snub him like this now, you will definitely be looked down upon by civil and military officials in the future, and it will bury a hidden bane for the emperor, and it will not do you any good to the emperor." ā
"Then what do you mean?" Wu Zetian asked with interest.
"Please ask the emperor to treat him well!" Li Yao didn't say much, but quietly replied to Wu Zetian.
As for how to treat Li Dan well, this is Wu Zetian's business, Li Yao has no need to say more, as the saying goes, if you say too much, you will lose, not to mention that Wu Zetian is now the emperor, of course Li Yao does not dare to say more in front of her, for fear of saying the wrong thing and being dissatisfied with Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian looked at Li Yao and sighed: "Do you know that you have changed now, and you are no longer like the one you were five years ago." ā
"Your Majesty, you have also changed, and you are no longer like the Queen Mother five years ago. Li Yao replied sadly with tears.
"Yes! People always change. Wu Zetian stretched out his hand to caress Li Yao's handsome side face, although the expression on her face was not shocked, but her heart was already turbulent.
In the past five years of loving Li Yao, saying that Wu Zetian doesn't like Li Yao in his heart, it is absolutely false, but she is changing, Li Yao is also changing, Wu Zetian always feels that Li Yao has helped her too much, knows too many secrets about her, and has had the sweetest and sweetest memories with her, such a person staying by her side for a long time is a hidden arrow for her.
And Li Yao is too smart and cunning, Wu Zetian can be said to love him very much, but at the same time he is very afraid and wary of him, and even does not hesitate to let the role of Feng Xiaobao played by Li Yao leave a notorious reputation in the pen of the historian, she can say that she wants to sacrifice Li Yao for herself.
The current Li Yao is becoming more and more important in Wu Zetian's heart, but it makes Wu Zetian want to get rid of him more and more.
Li Yao is not a fool, he knows this, he opened his arms and hugged Wu Zetian tightly in his arms, Li Yao whispered in her ear: "Mei Niang, let me go! You are now the emperor, I have no value to you anymore, you let me and my family go! I promise to leave Luoyang with my family from now on, and if I am far away from you, I will never pose any threat to you, just as I beg you." ā
"Two years ago, Li Chong rebelled, if you rebelled against Li Chong at that time and turned against me, the emperor standing in front of you today would be him, you are no longer the gangster Feng Xiaobao in Chang'an City five years ago, don't you know how capable you are now?" When Wu Zetian said this again, she didn't call herself me again, but coldly said this in Li Yao's ear.
Li Yao was speechless for a moment.
It's been five years, he knows Wu Zetian too well, Wu Zetian is the kind of woman who won't let go of any hidden dangers around her, just now her words have already made her point of view clear to Li Yao, this point of view is that you Feng Xiaobao will either continue to stay by my side and use it for me, or you will absolutely disappear in my world forever.
Wu Zetian saw Li Yao speechless, she stretched out her hand to push Li Yao away, and said to him again: "I have just ascended the throne now, and it is the time to employ people, so you continue to stay by my side and do things for me! ā
"Emperor Xie, Huaiyi must do his best for the emperor, do his best, and die. Li Yao saw that Wu Zetian refused to let him go no matter what, he had no choice but to respond bitterly.
"You'll be out of the White Horse Temple tomorrow! I just want you to fight for me. Wu Zetian opened his mouth and ordered Li Yao.
Li Yao nodded silently, there was nothing he could do.
After Wu Zetian should be released, Li Yao just retired and left, not wanting to continue to stay in the Palace of Eternal Life, but what made Li Yao a little speechless was that he had just walked outside the Hall of Eternal Life, and happened to meet Shen Nanmiao walking in from outside, as soon as the two met, Shen Nanmiao immediately smiled enthusiastically and said: "It's Lord Xue! What a coincidence, you also came to greet the Queen Mother?"
"Hehe! It's quite a coincidence, it's rare for Imperial Doctor Shen to come to wait for the Queen Mother, I happen to have some elixir here, Imperial Doctor Shen, you might as well take it and try it tonight." Li Yao laughed pretendedly, and while laughing, he reached into his sleeve, took out the powerful strong pill that had only been prepared a few days ago, and handed the medicine bottle to Shen Nanmiao.
"Thank you, Lord Xue. Shen Nanmiao hurriedly thanked Li Yao.
Li Yao waved his hand carelessly, and hurriedly said goodbye to Shen Nanmiao and left.
Shen Nanmiao pinched the medicine bottle and entered the Hall of Eternal Life excitedly, Li Yao took a few steps forward, he stopped again, turned his head to look at the back of Shen Nanmiao's departure, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart, Lao Tzu, this powerful pill, you can't control it without a strong body, you can eat more!
Thinking like this in his heart, Li Yao left the palace all the way proudly, he actually wanted to rectify Shen Nanmiao and vent his evil anger for Shangguan Wan'er.
