Wake up and become a son-in-law

"Wan'er" Lan Yuheng said hello with a smile. Shangguan Wan'er just returned the greeting politely and brought Lan Yuheng into the hall. "Your Majesty, I have something to do. Mr. Guo, please sit down and have a cup of tea first." She said Kneel down and start making tea for Lan Yuheng

Lan Yuheng picked up the tea and took a sip. After a while, Wu Meiniang came out with someone. Lan Yuheng didn't ask much when he saw that it was Xue Huaiyi, but Wu Meiniang was quite happy to see Lan Yuheng coming. , without any surprise, Xue Huaiyi saluted, "See the Duke of the Kingdom."

Lan Yuheng nodded slightly as a greeting. Wu Meiniang said to Xue Huaiyi, "That's it. It's decided. You can go back first." Xue Huaiyi bowed and left the hall reluctantly.

"Why do you have time to come to this palace today?" Wu Meiniang sat down next to Lan Yuheng. Her tone lost the previous majesty and was instead extremely gentle.

Lan Yuheng put down the cup, "Of course I came here to chat for a while." Wu Meiniang picked up the tea and took a sip. "I just talked with Xue Huaiyi about building a temple. I quite agree with some of his suggestions." Her tone seemed to be somewhat explaining. mean

"Oh? What could interest the queen?" Lan Yuheng decided to talk nonsense with Wu Meiniang first. It's not good to be too direct...

"Xue Huaiyi specially found some scriptures for me. These scriptures have very good implications for the promotion of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty. For this, I plan to reward him with a prince. What do you think?" Wu Meiniang stared at Lan Yuheng with her beautiful eyes. said with a smile

Lan Yuheng nodded, "These are your own matters, and I have no right to interfere."

Wu Meiniang's face seemed a little unhappy. She picked up the tea and took a sip. "Have you had lunch?" It seemed that she and Lan Yuheng had skipped this topic.

"No..." Lan Yuheng was straightforward, and Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "Wan'er is going to prepare lunch."

There were only a few simple dishes for lunch, but these seemed to be Lan Yuheng's favorite. Wu Meiniang wiped the chopsticks and handed them to Lan Yuheng and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Lan Yuheng didn't expect Wu Meiniang to be so direct: "Uh... I'm just here to make a fuss..."

Wu Meiniang sneered, "Are you making trouble? You have more women in your family than you can count on one hand, so you still need to make trouble with me? Why don't you even have your daily necessities at home? Do you still need to come to my house to eat and drink? Then I am right?" Should I arrange for you to sleep on your side again?"

Shangguan Wan'er looked strange on the side. She wanted to say something: "My dear, it's not like you haven't slept with me before..."

"Ahem...actually it's not a big deal, just a little thing." Lan Yuheng couldn't help but admit it. Wu Meiniang sneered and said, "Little thing? Tell me, I want to hear how small it is."

Lan Yuheng coughed dryly, "Even you know that Di Renjie and I are close friends. His character should be clear to the queen. What mistake did he make to be imprisoned in the sky prison? I heard that none of them were beaten." You look so good, I hope the empress will give me some face...ahem, let me go." Seeing Wu Meiniang staring at him expressionlessly, he also blushed.

"Face? Is your face valuable to me? What does it have to do with me that he is an old friend with you?" Wu Meiniang asked, Lan Yuheng coughed dryly | "Ahem... there should still be a little bit, right? "

Wu Meiniang glanced at Lan Yuheng, stood up and took out a letter from the drawer and placed it in front of Lan Yuheng, "I naturally have evidence for this matter. This is a confession signed by him."

Lan Yuheng took a look at the handprint and then looked at the incriminating evidence on it. Was he colluding with the Li clan to plot rebellion? Lan Yuheng put down the letter and said, "My dear, don't you think this is nonsense!"

"Speak to me properly! Didn't Yu'er teach you? If you say such vulgar words again, I will be slapped by Wan'er!" Wu Meiniang glared at Lan Yuheng, and Shangguan Wan'er's face turned red with embarrassment. Lan Yuheng is really...

"Ahem... Anyway, do you believe this kind of thing? This is obviously slander. Di Renjie is a rare and good official." Lan Yuheng began to defend Di Renjie.

"A good official?" Wu Meiniang sneered, "Have you already slandered him? Is this young official in the court a good official? Do you think this palace is short of good officials? As the left prime minister, he actually took the lead in speaking for Li Xian. He even united with all ministers to ask me to recall Li Xian, but I don’t like this!"

"Then there's no need to kill him if you don't like it. After all, you have to rely on evidence for everything, right? It's all about Lai Junchen performing a one-man show? Then he said that I have the intention of treason. Does the empress plan to kill me?" Lan? Yuheng said unhappily

"My lord, please don't say such things," Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but remind her.

Wu Meiniang glanced at Lan Yuheng coldly, "Lan Yuheng, I'm warning you, don't say such things in front of me." Lan Yuheng also felt that it was over and did not talk back.

Wu Meiniang said calmly, "Since he has signed and pledged it, it means that he does have such intention. Since I have him, it is impossible to let him go. You don't need to plead for mercy on this matter. Don't let me interfere in the affairs of the court."

Lan Yuheng said seriously, "Wu Meiniang, I don't care what happens to the others, but Di Renjie is my good friend, I must save him, and he will definitely be good for you in the future. I hope you can give him a chance and listen to what he means." "

Wu Meiniang was silent for a moment, "Let's eat first..." Lan Yuheng saw Wu Meiniang relent, and then she felt relieved. The atmosphere seemed a bit tense during the meal, and Wu Meiniang suddenly said, "How is your health? How did you sleep?" "

Lan Yuheng smiled and said, "It's no problem. I've slept well these days and the food is delicious..." Wu Meiniang nodded, "That's good..." After saying these three words, she ignored Lan Yu. Heng...

"Wan'er" After lunch, Wu Meiniang called out to Shangguan Wan'er, "Wan'er, go and bring Di Renjie here, and tell him that I have something to ask him." Shangguan Wan'er bowed and left the hall.

"Su Wen, Junchen likes to torture to extract confessions. Almost all the people he arrests do not confess. Don't you think this is strange?" Lan Yuheng suddenly asked inexplicably, and Wu Meiniang said lightly, "Isn't torture used by cruel officials?" Is this a normal thing? How can some people be willing to disclose it if they are stubborn and won’t touch the criminal law?”

Lan Yuheng smiled bitterly and said nothing, Wu Meiniang said lightly, "I said that you and I will not talk about government affairs, so let's talk about the robbery of food and grass."

Lan Yuheng asked curiously, "Have you found evidence of the crime?" Wu Meiniang glanced at Lan Yuheng, "Your guess is indeed good. According to the investigation, the food that ended up flowing into it was indeed the Khitan. It seems that the Khitan did take action against the Tang Dynasty..."

Lan Yuheng was silent for a moment, "What are your plans?" Wu Meiniang glanced at Lan Yuheng lightly, "You don't have to worry so much, I didn't ask you to go on an expedition!"

"No way...I'm just asking," Lan Yuheng said with a smile. In fact, he was also worried that Wu Meiniang would force him. Wu Meiniang flicked her sleeves. "I decided to let Cheng Wuting go there. In this matter, I The palace will never indulge foreign enemies."

Lan Yuheng poured tea and drank water while Wu Meiniang snorted coldly, "Are you comfortable now? Otherwise, Yu'er will have to bother me." Lan Yuheng respectfully gave Wu Meiniang a cup of tea. "Haha, When it comes to fighting, we should let others go, and we have to give others a chance to make great achievements, right?"

Wu Meiniang glanced at Lan Yuheng coldly, and Lan Yuheng could only apologize. After a while, footsteps were heard and Di Renjie was brought into the hall. Di Renjie was dressed appropriately, but the whip marks on his hands were still quite clear. , he first glanced at Lan Yuheng, then knelt down and said, "Di Renjie meets the empress."

Wu Meiniang's face was calm, "Di Renjie, was this death note written by you yourself?" Di Renjie knelt on the ground and cupped his hands and said, "It was written by me..."

boom!

Wu Meiniang smashed the post on the table, Feng Mu still had some murderous intent, Lan Yuheng said hurriedly, "There must be a hidden meaning in this, I hope your Majesty will rest in peace..."

"Shut up, I! Do you have the right to speak?" Wu Meiniang glared at Lan Yuheng, and Lan Yuheng had to shut up angrily. Wu Meiniang stopped looking at Lan Yuheng, "Di Renjie! Please explain to me, today. If you don’t explain clearly, today next year will be your death anniversary!”

Di Renjie's expression was calm, "I have no choice but to do it as a last resort." Wu Meiniang looked at Di Renjie coldly, with no intention of speaking. Di Renjie continued, "I have no intention of rebellion... The revolution of the Tang Dynasty, the restoration of all things, Li The old ministers of our clan are willing to be killed, but it is true!"

Lan Yuheng's eyelids twitched, Di Renjie was seeking death! He hurriedly coughed to remind him that Wu Meiniang's murderous intention was also at its extreme. She asked in a deep voice, "Then you mean you must rebel?" Di Renjie shook his head, "No, if I refuse to rebel, I will die or live. I have no choice but to do it."

"It's ridiculous, why should we die instead of not die? This is simply a contradiction," Wu Meiniang said with a sneer. Di Renjie sighed, "Back to you, my dear, this is what a cruel official forced me to do. The cruel official said... If you admit the crime, you can be exempted." It is a capital crime. Those who refuse to confess will not escape death. In this case, I can only do it deliberately."

Wu Meiniang narrowed her eyes and tapped her knees with her fingers without saying anything. Lan Yuheng coughed dryly, "What the empress and Brother Di said is absolutely true! The other party said that if you don't confess, you will die. If you confess, you can live. It's me, so I will." No, you won’t have to suffer the pain of your skin!”

Wu Meiniang sneered and said, "So you agreed to Wei Liyu?" Lan Yuheng's old face turned red. "This is not the same thing. As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes. This is clearly frame-up! Persecution! Public revenge, isn't it? Besides, today is not as good as before. , I was forced by the power of Wei Liyu! How can they be compared!"

Wu Meiniang snorted displeasedly, "I have made my own decision on this matter. You should go back first." Di Renjie stood up with some difficulty, bowed and then retreated. Lan Yuheng said with a smile, "I will help Brother Di right now." Go back?" Seeing that Wu Meiniang didn't say anything, he hurriedly left the hall. Shangguan Wan'er on the side was a little helpless. This Lan Yuheng was really not afraid of the empress at all... But the empress really doted on him...

"Wan'er...go and call Lai Junchen, and tell him that I'm looking for him." When Shangguan Wan'er was lost in thought, Wu Meiniang gave a faint order...

"Brother Lan, thank you very much for today. Otherwise, according to your mother-in-law's temperament, I'm afraid my life will be lost." Di Renjie said gratefully. Lan Yuheng waved her hands hurriedly, "Brother Di, this seems to be very different between you and me." Stop talking about this and come to me for a drink when you have recovered."
