Chapter 186 The Monkey with the Knife (Part 2)

Wu Zetian's face gradually calmed down.

Although Li Xian is the Grand Marshal of Hebei Road, he is actually just a name and has not participated in it. Li Xian spent most of his time in Luoyang, under her nose. The only way for him to understand the situation in Hebei is the memorial handed over from Di Renjie. If Di Renjie had not read this memorial, Li Xian would not be able to do so.

"Crown Prince, get up."

Wu Zetian's voice was much softer.

Li Xian stood up tremblingly, but his cowardly appearance made Wu Zetian frown slightly.

How can this look be called emperor? She doesn't like Li Xian's appearance, but she also knows it very well in her heart that only Li Xian is the best successor. Li Xian may not have great talent and may not be considered a wise ruler, but he has one thing that Wu Zetian values, that is, he is appointed Kuanhe and has a very gentle temperament.

Such Li Xian could only be preserved after Wu Zetian returned to power one day.

In contrast, Prime Minister Li Dan is also very generous, but in Wu Zetian's eyes, behind Li Dan's generousness, he is indeed very scheming.

She couldn't guarantee that after she died, Li Dan would forgive the Wu family.

This is also the reason why Li Dan and even changed their surname to stay in Shendu and accompanied Wu Zetian for eight years, but in the end they chose Li Xian.

"In this way, no one knows about this?"

"The saints' clever view."

Wu Zetian nodded slightly, his face cleared slightly.

"Since that's the case, I'll ask the prince to investigate the matter thoroughly.

In addition, I passed on my order that Yang Chenglie, the magistrate of Changping County, was loyal and upright, and was moved to the position of Sima of Youzhou, and was the seventh rank. His son Yang Shouwen was outstanding in literary talent and skilled in martial arts. He was also loyal and honest. I was specially appointed as the magistrate of the Imperial College, and was the eighth rank."

The official system in the Tang Dynasty was divided into two types: official officials and scattered officials.

The scattered officials are composed of civil and military officials, and they are called the scattered officials subordinate to the individual's position, so they are also called the "this item".

In the Tang Dynasty, this category and the official position were established separately.

Officials are recruited according to their talents. The migration is uncertain; this product will rise steadily by relying on "labor examination".

Therefore, officials must have scattered positions, but scattered positions may not necessarily have scattered positions. To put it bluntly, this is a title and glory.

The Yuhui Captain is a military san official. If he enters the army, he is equivalent to the brigade commander of the Zhechong Mansion.

Generally speaking, those who get scattered positions mostly rely on the sacred ranks to create ranks. Yang Shouwen was originally just a white man, but he became a martial san official from the eighth rank. If it were an ordinary person, he would not have been excited about such a position.

Under Wu Zetian's rule, he has always been a word of the word.

Some of them may be dissatisfied, but they can't help it.

"I am a little tired, please step back."

Di Renjie and others hurriedly bowed and walked out, but just as Di Renjie was about to step out of the threshold of Zichen Pavilion, he heard Wu Zetian's voice coming from behind him, "Huaiying, stay."

He was stunned and quickly turned around.

At this time, Wu Zetian had already turned around the Feng case.

She walked down the steps and arrived at the door.

A palace maid took a cloak and slashed it on her. Then she stepped out of Zichen Pavilion.

"Since the beginning of spring, Huaiying has been sick many times, and I am very worried about it.

I was going to visit Huaiying several times, but for various reasons, I couldn't make a trip. Today, Jingzhe, the peach blossoms in the imperial garden must have sprouted. Huaiying accompanied me and talked, so that I could feel more relaxed."

"The saint asked for it is a blessing for the old minister."

The two of them walked slowly along the corridor of Zichen Pavilion.

"Why are there any movement in Zhan Chuo recently?"

"After making a detailed return, after Zhan Chuo returned to Heisha City, he annexed several tribes in succession, and his strength increased greatly. The saint had previously transferred Zhang Rendan to Bingzhou, which was a good countermeasure. Zhang Rendan had outstanding talents and strong temperament, so he would definitely be able to do something in Bingzhou. However, Zhan Chuo's strength in the north of the Seychelles increased day by day, and there was a solution to it earlier."

"I don't know these, just..."

Wu Zetian sighed and said softly: "Huaiying has been with me for many years, so I should know what I am worried about.

There are rumors outside that I am a hen, and it is not enough to reproduce the majestic and martial arts posture of Emperor Taizong. But Huaiying should understand that it is not me who does not want to, but civil and military personnel do not want to cooperate. For example, in the Battle of Hebei Province last year, if there was no one in secret, how could the Turks be as powerful as a bamboo shoot to conquer cities and land? In the first year of Longsheng Tongtian, I don’t believe that millions of soldiers were present in Hebei, but were beaten by only tens of thousands of Khitans to abandon their armor? Haha, I am not stupid, I know very well in my heart."

Speaking of this, Wu Zetian couldn't help but grit her teeth.

Di Renjie felt a hint of chill and hurriedly said, "What the saint said is nothing but speculation. From what the old ministers see, all civil and military officials are still dedicated to it."

"Is it still worth it?"

There was sadness in Wu Zetian's voice.

"Huaiying, you don't even want to tell the truth to me?"

"Old minister..."

Wu Zetian waved his hand and stopped.

"A few days ago, the King of Liang found me and said he wanted to marry the prince.

He wanted to marry Princess Yongtai with his successor, and Princess Gaoyang with his son Princess Anle. I wonder what Huaiying thinks?"

"This is the family affairs of a saint, and the old minister dare not say much."

"Huaiying, I just want to talk to you, why are you so reserved?"

The King of Wei was named Wu Yanji, and he was the son of Wu Chengsi. Wu Chengsi was originally the King of Wei, and after his death, Wu Yanji inherited the King of Wei. However, Wu Zetian didn't like his name very much, so he asked him to change it to the King of Wei; and the Prince of Gaoyang was named Wu Chongxun, and he was the second son of Wu Sansi.

Why didn’t Di Renjie know what Wu Zetian was worried about?

He pondered for a moment and said softly: "The old minister thinks these two marriages are excellent."

"Well, I have asked the prince, and he has no objection to it. So I think, after spring is in full bloom, please Huaiying, you are a matchmaker and fulfill these two marriages. What do you think?"

Di Renjie smiled, "The old minister has no choice but to blame for this matter."

Wu Zetian's face suddenly improved a lot. She turned her head and smiled, "I just knew, Huaiying, you must understand my intentions."

After she said that, she walked forward.

At this moment, two very handsome young men hurriedly ran from a distance.

The guards and eunuchs in front did not stop the two of them, and even made way out. The two young men came to Wu Zetian and said with concern: "Sage, why are you still walking outside with such a big storm? If you get sick, wouldn't it make us feel distressed? Just now, the fifth brother also said that he had compose a new song and wanted to play it for the saint and ask the saint to evaluate it."

"Goro, has he composed another song?"

"Haha, Liulang also made a special dance for this."

"Then I must appreciate it very much."

Before we knew it, Wu Zetian and Di Renjie had already set aside.

The two young men separated, which even further prevented the conversation between Di Renjie and Wu Zetian.

"Huaiying, let's be here today.

I'll ask you to tell me when you make a decision."

Wu Zetian did not forget Di Renjie, but her heart was no longer here at this moment.
