Crown Tang emperor

Princess Taiping originally intended to run on Shangguan Wan'er, but when she heard Shangguan Wan'er's comment to the Queen, her color changed slightly for a while, and she couldn't help frowning and muttering: "Your Majesty also heard her young grandson's new speech. What's the meaning?"

"We don't let go of our relatives, each of us understands each other. His Highness asked me, but what he asked was not human. When His Majesty was discussing this matter, King Wei and King Liang were both in the palace."

Shangguan Wan'er rolled up the note, put it into the basket with an ordinary face, and then took a sip of tea.

After listening to Shangguan Wan'er's words, Princess Taiping lowered her head and pondered, without asking Shangguan Wan'er's opinion on it.

Everyone who sees something will inevitably be biased because of his position. Compared with others' conclusions, Princess Taiping believes in her own judgment on people and things.And even if asked, Shangguan Wan'er's usual cautious character, presumably would never go too deep.There may even be some deletions in the information that he is currently revealing to himself.

The queen's comment on Shaowang's new words can no longer be called a comment, but a blind deprecation, even rising from the rhetoric to a person's opinion.Even though Princess Taiping didn't have great poetic talent, she felt that this level of derogation was a bit of a big deal.

Obviously the empress was dissatisfied when she said these words, but why was she so dissatisfied with this long-lost grandson, and she expressed it in front of the Wu family son?Is it implying that Wu Jiazi forced the young king to be trapped and put him to death?

This should not be possible. Since the Tianshou Revolution, the upstarts of the Wu family have each become kings, and Wu Chengsi in particular intends to reserve the position. The targets are all the prime ministers and generals. Although the young king is related by blood, But it's just an idle talk, if you really mean this person, there is no need for the two Wu family to make a move.

Second, if the Holy Emperor had such intentions, Princess Taiping glanced at the indifferent Shangguan Wan'er, and didn't think that the other party would reveal this murderous intent to her so easily.

If there is dissatisfaction, but it is not aimed at the young king, then naturally it can only be the two Wu family present.The queen was dissatisfied with them, so she used the young king to beat them, and through harsh words to her grandson, aroused their respective vigilance and discipline.

Thinking of this, Princess Taiping couldn't help taking a deep breath, a sense of crisis filled her heart, and then she thought about why her mother was dissatisfied with Wu Jiazi and expressed it in such a way.

Since the Tianshou Revolution, the government and the public have been in turmoil frequently, and the prime ministers and generals have often died. On the surface, this seems to be the empress's fierce power, but in reality, it is the Wu family's vigorous grabbing of military and political power.

Especially not long ago, Di Renjie, Wei Yuanzhong and other prime ministers went to execution on the same day, which made Chao Gang almost deserted.Wu Chengsi's shown that he is bound to win the reserve should have already exceeded the bottom line set in her mother's heart.

To put it bluntly, her mother is nearly seventy years old, and maybe one day she won't be able to see the court.

Wu Chengsi seized the reserve with such a ferocious momentum, is there such a consideration behind it?If you already have this idea of ​​prevention, do you have the idea and the ability to make this variable controllable?

The court has been in turmoil for several times. It should be said that the Wu family has mastered this power. There are two prime ministers in the court, who are in charge of the northern and southern government guards, and there are still guards in Xijing.

The honor was originally taken from her own son, so the queen would trust her nephew so much?Especially when Wu Chengsi was so eager to establish his heir, how much heart must he have to condone again and again?

Since he was already vigilant, why did he not give a severe training but beat in such a twists and turns?

With many thoughts in her mind, Princess Taiping realized that her mother was in an embarrassing situation, and continuing to indulge the Wu family would gradually put herself in a dangerous situation.However, if the samurai family is suppressed with clear-cut sanctions, it will undoubtedly revive the embers of the Tang family, and all previous efforts will be in vain!

The more she thought about it, the more serious Princess Taiping's expression became.She finally figured out why that little slippery King Hedong was stuck in Xijing and refused to return to the capital. In the current situation, even the empress was a little hesitant and confused, and it was really a disaster or a blessing to bump into this place.

It seems that he has a strong love and a high interest, but this kid is actually careless and unintentional. He just feels sorry for himself and does not want to be in danger.Thinking about it this way, her mother's evaluation was somewhat appropriate.In other words, this kid would not scatter hawks when he saw a rabbit, and he would not get involved in the muddy water if there were no definite signs suggesting that he could inherit the old family again.

After guessing a lot, Princess Taiping still felt that she couldn't fully understand her mother's intentions, and at the same time, she couldn't see through the various behaviors of that boy in Xijing.Since he doesn't plan to return to the capital of God in the short term, he can stay in Xijing honestly, so why do those ostentatious jokes?

Confused in her heart, Princess Taiping pressed the button temporarily, and couldn't help but glance at Shangguan Wan'er beside her.This woman is tight-lipped, and she is by no means a character of talking about secrets to show off, so what kind of thoughts do you have when you tell yourself this matter?

Chapter 0251

Princess Taiping was chatting with Shangguan Wan'er full of distracting thoughts, and the time soon came in the evening, when a female official came to tell the queen to call the princess to the palace for dinner.

Shangguan Wan'er sent the princess gift out of the main courtyard, and then returned to the hall, picked up the paper that was randomly thrown in the cage just now, smoothed it carefully, and sighed softly: "The words are beautiful and ingenious, touching people's hearts, That's what she looks like if she is self-willed. How many women are there in the world who are like His Majesty's enlightenment?"

While speaking, she carefully rolled up the note, walked into the inner room, and placed it in the other side of the inconspicuous cage.

Just now Princess Taiping was sitting in the seat thinking deeply, Shangguan Wan'er saw it in her eyes, and felt quite touched in her heart.

She recalled the scene of running around in the bright halls and halls in the past, and felt that it was her duty to rescue the young king. However, various incidents later proved that the young king's long-term plan to seek good fortune and avoid evil was far beyond what women in the palace could imagine. arrived.

She lived in the deep palace since she was a child and read too many love stories, Shangguan Wan'er has never felt that there are stupid people in the world, the difference is only in seeking strengths and weaknesses.Even the maidservants who are usually sweeping, know how to be careful and cherish their own strength.

She deliberately placed the new words in a prominent position, and it really sparked a follow-up topic.Shangguan Wan'er couldn't exhaust the associations that Princess Taiping had, but probably not a few.

If it was said that she didn't know that the young king was going to leave soon and urged the princess to open a theater, now it seems that if there is no such old incident, the princess would not be so interested in talking about the young king's deeds.The world is treacherous, looking forward and hesitant, since there is such a good choice in front of you, there is no need to make other plans.

Princess Taiping went to enter the Lichun Hall, and when she went up to greet her, she saw that the meal on the food table in front of the Queen was already half used, but she was waiting for her.She has complicated feelings for this mother, and she has resentment, but she also knows that if her mother doesn't care for her unabated, it would be difficult for her to be rich and calm now.

"You don't let anyone tell you when you enter the palace. Only after hearing people tell you that you, a lady, don't live at home."

Wu Zetian looked at her daughter and scolded with a smile, then raised her hand and said, "Change to a new meal."

"My mother's audio-visual work is already busy, I'm a boring person, how can I often come to disturb you."

Princess Taiping sat sideways on the mat, raised her eyes to look at her mother, saw that her body was full of lead, and there was no obvious sign of aging, but she felt a little sore in her heart.

Putting aside miscellaneous matters, she still admires this mother mostly.Just now Motoedain thought about all kinds of things and realized that age is the queen's biggest enemy.Her mother is always high-spirited, even in the face of such a powerful opponent, she does not show weakness.But shortening one's life does not fulfill one's wishes, no matter how tenacious one is, there is always a hint of strength on the outside but on the inside.

The palace maid Wei Tuan'er served the meals for Princess Taiping in person, and said with a smile: "The meals are always prepared, and there are many items that Her Royal Highness likes, and they are all ordered by His Majesty. Your Highness is often at the table, and His Majesty smiles more. Use things, and your heart will be more at ease and light.”

The queen laughed and reprimanded in the hall: "My wife has her own family, and she often works hard for you idle servants to be steady and brisk. You are so talkative!"

"In this case, I like to hear it the most, so that I can feel that I am not a loathsome person."

Princess Taiping looked at the Queen's expression, and then pretended to sigh: "Thanks to Grandma and Sun Xianli, now my theater has few carriages and horses, and the hall is desolate, which makes people feel sad, and I often spend time in the theater. "

Wu Zetian knocked on the case after hearing the words and said with a smile: "You yourself are lazy and idle, so you don't need to boast about the talents of others. That kid can praise his quick-wittedness for a while, and make fun of his leisure time. It should not be used."

Princess Taiping put down her cup and chopsticks, and sighed: "My mother said it was something else, but it made me feel ashamed and embarrassed in front of me. I am naughty and playful, and what I want is just a compliment from my parents..."

"You are different from him."

Wu Zetian sighed slightly, then pointed at the princess and said, "Let's eat first, I will break my promise."

Seeing this, Princess Taiping didn't force her words any more, she just bowed her head and ate in silence.

Wu Zetian had already eaten more than half of her meal, but now she was just sipping a bowl of hot soup, looking down at her daughter eating, her eyes and eyebrows were full of kindness, and from time to time she opened her mouth to point the princess to try other dishes.Although she is the lord of the world, there are more or less normal feelings in her heart, and she is devoted to this daughter.

Under her mother's repeated persuasion, Princess Taiping added another bowl of rice, then waved her hand and said, "I really can't eat any more."

Wu Zetian smiled when she saw this, and said with emotion: "When children are young, it is inevitable that they have excessive preferences and anorexia. If they were ruthless and disciplined you harshly at that time, your physique could be improved a little bit. You are also a mother yourself, remember to be kind. Don't abuse, if you don't give strict discipline, it will be difficult for your son to become a big branch."

"I am self-willed and greedy. I have no example to show others. Alang is getting older, and his talent is sloppy, which makes people sad. I am tired of being disciplined. I ordered my family to send it to Sanlang in Xijing, hoping that he can follow suit."

Princess Taiping repeated the old saying, quite a bit indomitable.

Wu Zetian didn't interrupt her this time, but nodded in agreement after listening to it: "This is a good arrangement, my son is still competing for it, let him have a closer look at the real talent, and he will grow up in the next year, I think it will not be bad. "

Although this topic was brought up by Princess Taiping, after hearing what her mother said, she still secretly felt angry. Your grandson is a real talent, and my son was raised to make up for it?Can you take into account other people's feelings when you speak? It's all in the armpit!

Besides, even this so-called good talent is not of great use in your opinion, so what is the use of my son... Sigh, I can't think about it, my stomach hurts from eating too much.

Putting aside these miscellaneous thoughts, Princess Taiping was sure that her inference was not bad. The queen said that she still rewarded her grandson who was far away in Xijing, so it can be seen that the dissatisfaction was not directed at the young king.

"Since we want to travel, the remaining sons in the court might as well use it together. The scenery of Xijing is also magnificent and beautiful, which can benefit Shaoliu. Although there is no favor for pregnancy, since we are both on the knees, there is no point in favoring one over the other."

Wu Zetian changed his mind slightly, and said: "Your theater is full of old-fashioned tunes, and the only thing that attracts people's interest is the old year's love, but now it is won by the younger generation, and it is simply closed for a short time, and housework is not acceptable. Don't ask for a long time, and the Zhongguan will send you back later."

If before, Princess Taiping would only be her mother and gossip to persuade her to get along with her husband and wife, but now that she is grateful for the current situation, she feels that there is a lot of meaning in it. The mother wants to use her to win over the son-in-law Wu Youji, so that the Wu family son will not dare to plot privately .

After realizing this, Princess Taiping also put away a little bit of resistance in her heart, and said with a smile: "I was squeezed by a few people, and people laughed at me, but I can't give up, but I also plan on my own. discuss."

She knew that what her mother needed was not the harmony between her husband and wife, but her control over the son-in-law Wu Youji, so she expressed her position like this.

Wu Zetian laughed after hearing the words: "You are so strong when you are young, and you strive to win when you are old. Now you will not let go of your children. Although King Ding is heroic and respectful, you have to restrain your arrogance and go on a blind date." compatible."

After the mother and daughter chatted for a while, Wu Zetian ordered the palace servants to send the princess out.

Head Wei sent the princess to the outside of the palace, and was about to say goodbye, but the princess held her hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is not in a hurry to use it. Can Madam Lao Wei send me a ride? Madam, you used to be a music player, but now If I want to win in the theater, I cannot do without occasional questions, and hope to gather everyone's help."

Wei Tuan'er blinked, explained to the maid behind him, and then walked down the palace steps holding the princess's cloak: "The King of Hedong has a long-lasting reputation, and Your Highness the Princess is the commander-in-chief in the city of Shendu. Mei, the servant girl is clumsy, even if she enters indiscriminately, how much can she control the situation?"

"You can't say that. The young king was busy in the inner teaching workshop in the old years, and accepted it for his wife. If I can recruit a lady, I know myself and the enemy, and I can make plans."

Princess Taiping grabbed Wei Tuaner with her backhand and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Wei Tuan'er's glamorous face showed shyness: "Your Highness said so, the servant girl is even more frightened, she really didn't go deep into the king's arms, how dare she put herself in the other side, and invite favors based on this."

"Young lady, I'm afraid I'm cowardly? Well, in fact, I'm just killing time by doing these idle plays. The outcome is already determined by people. The young king is my Yushu, don't come to think about his voice, and annoy him for a long time. Leaving and not returning, peeping at the Sacred Heart, I'm afraid it's the same feeling. This kid is obsessed with the wind and moon in Xijing, and he can't return, making people wish he could be lured back to the capital and just have fun in front of the banquet."

Princess Taiping sighed while walking.

Wei Tuan'er lowered his head, his expression changed slightly, he only silently recited Si Gongtai Yang Chong's instructions in his heart, that outsiders should not talk about the young king at all.

Princess Taiping talked very happily and kept talking all the way, but after boarding the car to leave the palace, she finally sighed and said: "After the young king got rid of his clothes, someone sued me and asked me to help him stay in Xijing for a short time. After weighing the difficulties, I will Why don't you understand, it's nothing more than worrying about the new king's persecution, but even if you stay far away from Xijing, how can you avoid being watched by your eyes and ears. I heard that His Majesty demoted the young king a few days ago. , I am afraid that there will be some unfavorable schemes. In order to take care of him, I ordered the boy to go to Xijing, hoping to help people a little bit and make people afraid."

Hearing this, Wei Tuan'er finally couldn't bear it anymore: "The princess has such a heart, the king wants to be free from worries."

After hearing the words, the princess sighed and said: "It's just a little bit of human affairs, the world is dangerous, how can I support it. Your Majesty doesn't care about the old people. If there is any evil in the future, I'm afraid I will stay away from it."

"It's not that your majesty dislikes the old man, so he hates talking about the king, it's because..."

Wei Tuan'er clenched his fists, and after struggling for a while, he finally said: "The king of Jian'an in Xijing came to the table the day before yesterday, and the king made a statement. Because of the pressure, the king Qu Yanmei played the role of King Jian'an. Have fun..."

When Princess Taiping heard this, she finally understood why her mother's attitude towards King Hedong was complicated.

Wu Youyi stayed in Xijing, how well he did is not a secret to the gods, the King of Hedong was coerced by him to pretend to be beautiful, and he could not speak out, which naturally dissatisfied His Majesty, who was already on guard against the kings of the Wu family. In words.

But Princess Taiping is still a bit puzzled. Since His Majesty is dissatisfied with the matter of Xijing, why didn't he just stop the matter and order the King of Hedong to return to the capital as soon as possible?Could it be that he took advantage of the noise in Xijing to divide people's popularity, so as to work in the capital of God?

Chapter 0252

Princess Taiping still has a deep understanding of her mother. After some deep thinking, she has figured out Wu Zetian's intentions, but she still has nothing to do with her own aspects.

Wu Zetian was very dissatisfied with the grandson of King Hedong, it should be said that he was disappointed.She regards the female body as the emperor, and naturally has her own set of strategies for appraising and using talents.

Before that, she really loved the grandson of King Hedong. From the early years of Mingtang's big feast, to all kinds of deeds after that, the young king really gave her a lot of surprises.

This son does not regard blood and vulgarity as the boundary, and all schemes are based on advances. Wu Zetian is very pleased with his agility to the current situation and daring to do things.Especially compared with the nephews she had no choice but to entrust for reuse, this grandson will undoubtedly make people place more expectations.

Among other things, just because this kid was able to let go of everything that the gods already had, and willingly go westward to serve in solitude, this kind of temperament of advancing and retreating is worthy of Wu Zetian's favor.

But favor is one aspect, although the young king has a noble status, but his seniority is shallow, if he is entrusted with a big responsibility rashly, he may be arrogant, careless, and be possessed by a traitor and make trouble.

The fact that the young king was able to stay in the Qianling Mausoleum throughout the ceremony and not be disturbed by external disturbances had something to do with Wu Zetian's deliberate protection.

To put it more profoundly, compared to the son of Yu Ze of the Tang family and the nephew who was fighting with small abacus, Wu Zetian was closer to this grandson who showed knowledge and interest, and even wanted to cultivate him in his heart. plan.

Since the Tianshou Revolution, the court dispute has quickly turned into a battle of succession, and the focus is no longer on whether the heroine should be in charge of the country.In the beginning, Wu Zetian did use this to clean up some old Tang family members who were in high positions and had stubborn attitudes.

But gradually, this kind of dispute changed, especially seeing more and more people gathered behind her Wu family nephews, which made Wu Zetian feel a little bit blocked.

She has struggled for half her life, and enjoys the honor and position, but the people in the world do not respect the grace of the heroine, but are keen to discuss who the successor is. What does this mean?Could it be that she really thinks that she has painstakingly weaved brocade to make wedding clothes for others?

Wu Zetian knew very well in her heart that her power tactics were not ingenious, and people in the world did not dare to lose respect for her, but her biggest disadvantage was her age.People want to get it done once and for all, and win long-term wealth through temporary struggle, and it is precisely because of this that there will be such a fierce battle for heirs in the court.

If this momentum is not restrained, there will be treacherous people who will dare to take risks!

The King of Hedong is lonely and knowledgeable, he does not love Yu Ze of the Tang family, he dares to make new strategies for the revolution, and at the same time, he is still an unpredictable Shaoliu.To be honest, Wu Zetian was really looking forward to this grandson being able to find his position quickly after he was dismissed from the service, so that people would no longer only focus on who the heir is.

However, the performance of the young king was not satisfactory. He was afraid of the turbulent situation in the capital of God and the guests staying in Xijing did not move forward.If it's just that, Wu Zetian can still treat him as a long-time recluse and be cautious when he is unfamiliar with people and affairs.

However, Wu Zetian was really disappointed when she saw the Shaowang's pen letter mixed in the Xijing memorial table.After living in seclusion for many years, I don't expect him to grow in talent. Now it seems that he doesn't even have the old sense of "only love to live me".

Whether Wu Youyi is doing well in Xijing, not to mention that the young king has no room to comment, even if there is, is it necessary to invite the new king of the Wu family based on this?

Doing so, how is it different from those who are ignorant of loyalty, follow the path of evil, and rush to fight for reserves?Could it be that he also thought that his grandmother's kindness was not enough to last long, and that he could climb higher if he tried to be evil?

In addition to being dissatisfied with the young king, Wu Zetian was also secretly annoyed at Wu Youyi who stayed behind in Xijing.This nephew still hasn't figured out why he was arranged to stay behind in Xijing!

Coercing the young king to make false statements about American politics, and teasing Fengyue to whitewash the peace of the world, can this cover up his various bad deeds in Xijing?What's more, if Wu Zetian wanted a Guanzhong where people lived and worked in peace and prosperity, why did he need to move hundreds of thousands of people from Guanlong to Heluo?

The reason why he bluntly expressed his dissatisfaction with the young king in front of the two kings of the Wu family, Wu Zetian also had two intentions in mind, one is naturally to beat the warning, so that the nephew can be aware of the warning and warn himself, so that the trouble does not end.

But Wu Zetian also understands that her nephews may not have such a clear awareness, if they are really so aware of the warning and content, she doesn't even need to give such a warning.

So the second intention is the key point, implying to encourage the nephews to target the young king, it is best to have an actual suppression.Hit the young king to let him know who is his real reliance, and don't rely on evil energy to make things up for him.

As for the deeper reason, that is what Princess Taiping thought of.

The masses are rushing to Xijing, which shows that the young king's reputation is still not shallow. If the king of Wei wants to get rid of the young king, he will have to make some manpower arrangements and investment, and it may cause some variables, which can be used. The order of the bureau was readjusted.

Although this would put the young king at a disadvantage, all the causes and effects were self-seeking, he could have avoided it, he was foolish, and he didn't blame others.

But even so, Wu Zetian still felt a pity for giving up this grandson who was originally optimistic.

So when Princess Taiping mentioned it several times, the eagerness to protect her was fully revealed, and Wu Zetian was very moved, and agreed that Princess Taiping would send her son to Xijing to help the young king.

Her daughter is determined to do things, but she has no clue.Wu Zetian also saw this in his eyes. At the same time, he couldn't help but think that if the young king could return to the police, draw a clear line with the Wu family, and take shelter of his aunt, daughter and grandson, plus the Ding Wang Wu Youji of the Wu family, it would be too late. It can become a trend of its own, so that the tit-for-tat and precarious situation can be re-stabilized.

But if the young king is too clumsy, or if the methods of Wei Wang are too harsh, Wu Zetian is ready to sacrifice this grandson, but Ding Wang Wu Youji's son should not even think about returning to the capital of God!The death of a famous king deserves his own martyrdom, which can also create discord among her group of nephews.

"Your Majesty, it's Haishi."

In the quiet hall, the palace officials walked in and whispered the time.

"So fast?"

Wu Zetian raised his head, put down the memorial and writing brush in his hands, and after pondering for a while, asked, "Master is still in Linzhi Hall?"

After hearing the words, the palace official nodded and said: "Master Xue is very excited, and he is still preaching the scriptures."

"It's hard work."

Wu Zetian laughed when he heard the words, and then ordered: "Order the lantern to send more candles, and light them inside and out. The Buddha's teachings are high and righteous, how can they be spread in a secluded place."

The palace official should then ask for instructions: "Would you send Yijia and Zhang She along?"
