Just when Pei Shaoqing was worried that Li Zhi would not help but order the old eunuch to kill,

However, the nominal supreme ruler of the Tang Empire suddenly smiled and said, "Sincere enough, Mr. Pei is a person of temperament."

"The Emperor praised it."

With the sound of speaking,

The temperature in the bedroom rose again.

Pei Shaoqing knew that the crisis had been lifted.

This also indirectly proves that Pei Shaoqing's judgment is correct.

Li Zhi really has personality flaws and is unwilling or dare not fight against political enemies head-on.

Because everyone now knows that he is the queen party. If he kills him in the Qingsi Palace, it is equivalent to openly breaking up with Wu Zetian, and Li Zhi doesn't have the courage to do so.

Sure enough, Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "I am tired, you can retreat."

"Here." Pei Shaoqing responded with respect and quickly took Qingxuan out of Qingsi Palace.

Looking at Pei Shaoqing disappearing outside the hall gate without focus, Li Zhi asked with ease: "Maochun, what do you think?"

The old eunuch said in a deep voice: "Although Pei Shaoqing is young, judging from his handling of the kidnapping of Princess Taiping, he can be said to be quite a general."

"And there is also strategy."

"This son is both wise and brave, quite similar to an old friend back then."

"Old friend?" Li Zhi's expression condensed and said, "Who is it?"

"The Duke of Wei, who led three thousand brilliant troops across Yinshan, Li Yaoshi!" said the old eunuch quietly, "The queen of heaven can be assisted by this son, and it will be even more difficult to restrict her in the future."

"Maochun has said it? What a person Li Yaoshi is? How can Pei Shaoqing be as good as him?" Li Zhi shook his head and said again, "But this guy has a decisive and strategic position, he is indeed a good knife."

"It's a pity that such a sharp knife cannot be used by me."

"It's all because of that idiot Wang Desheng. He didn't succeed enough and had enough trouble." The old eunuch looked cold and said again: "Emperor, should you take advantage of this son before he grows up, as early as possible..."

Speaking of this, the old eunuch made a cut gesture.

Li Zhi didn't make any noise.

...

Let’s talk about Pei Shaoqing later.

As soon as the two left Qingsi Hall, they met an old eunuch again.

It was the one who led him into Hanyuan Hall from Jianfu Gate before.

The old eunuch seemed to be in a hurry. He didn't walk through the corridors on both sides, but walked directly through the mud, so the upturned boots were stained with a lot of yellow mud.

Are you worried that something will happen to him?

It seems that the water in Daming Palace is very deep.

The two saints are far less harmonious than they seem on the surface.

Seeing Pei Shaoqing's good health, the old eunuch was obviously relieved.

"Pei Xiaolangjun." said the old eunuch, "The Queen is waiting for you. You can go to Zichen Palace with our family."

"Here." Pei Shaoqing agreed and quickly followed the old eunuch, "I haven't asked my father-in-law for his noble surname."

"How dare people talk about the word "noble"?" said the old eunuch, "the naive surname is Gao, and his name is Lingsong."

"So it's Eunuch Gao." Pei Shaoqing gave a crossed hand and said, "Who is older than Eunuch Yu in front of the Emperor?"

"Oh, Mr. Pei, don't ruin our family." Gao Lingsong said, "Eunuch Yu is our ancestor, how dare our family be compared with Eunuch Yu."

In one sentence, Pei Shaoqing found two important information.

First, the old eunuch's status is extraordinary.

Second, the overall status of eunuchs is not high now.

...

Zichen Palace.

Wu Zetian was discussing the reward with the important officials.

The Star Lord of Wenqu offers 1024 auspicious poems. This is an unprecedented holy auspicious auspicious event. Such a major festive event must be celebrated together.

The amnesty is certain.

There is no need to discuss tax reductions and exemptions.

The focus of the discussion is on the reward standards for officials in Beijing.

The results of the discussion are eighth grade, nineth grade rewards ten jin, sixth grade, seventh grade plus ten gangs, fourth grade plus ten gangs, fiveth grade plus ten gangs, and threeth grade or more to give yellow pounds and hundreds of taels.

The last one to discuss separately is Pei Shaoqing.

Wu Zetian said: "My dear friends, how should Pei Shaoqing reward you?"

A group of senior officials looked at me and I looked at you, and finally their eyes were focused on Liu Rengui.

Liu Rengui, who was leaning on a crutch, stood up tremblingly and said, "Reporting to the Queen of Heaven, Pei Xiaolangjun presented more than a thousand poems on behalf of Wenqu Xingjun. This is an unprecedented auspicious auspiciousness, and it is not an exaggeration to reward him."

"However, Pei Xiaolangjun is young after all, so suddenly climbing to a high position may not be a good thing."

"So the old minister thought that I might as well go to the Imperial College to study for a few years and recognize a few more words."

"It's not too late to be a general or a magistrate when he succeeds in his studies, and then he will be assigned important tasks."

After hearing Liu Rengui's words, many of the purple-robed officials present nodded, all of whom felt that the words were reasonable.

"Ge Lao Liu is the old man who is planning the country." Wu Zetian did not show any obvious tendency on his face, and said, "Does the other Qing families have different opinions?"

The hall fell silent.

Everyone was speculating about Wu Zetian's thoughts.

A moment later, a purple robe came out and said, "I dare not agree with this statement from Master Liu."

When Wu Zetian looked closely, he was Pei Yan, who had just been promoted from Huangmen Assistant Minister to Attendant.

Pei Yan continued: "Just just now, Liu Ge Lao said that Pei Xiaolangjun was young, and Huo Qubing was appointed as General of the Cavalry at the age of 19, but he was just the same age as Pei Xiaolangjun."

"Ganluo was even nine years old and was appointed as the prime minister."

"Since this kind of example is the first, why can't Pei Xiaolangjun entrusted important tasks?"

Many purple robes present nodded again, and Mr. Pei's words made sense.

Liu Renguidao: "Pei Shaoqing is also a child of the Pei family in Hedong, so Pei Ge should avoid suspicion."

Pei Yan said, "The subordinate officials are the ones who are not evading relatives. Not to mention the contribution of offering auspiciousness to the Star Lord of Wenqu. Just the performance of Pei Shaoqing in the case of Princess Taiping is worthy of vigorous cultivation of the court."

The officials in the court were divided into two factions and could not argue.

At this time, a minister suggested: "Why not ask Pei Xiaolangjun's opinion and then decide on the reward?"

"Well, let's not mention it for now." Wu Zetian followed suit and said, "I will discuss the rebellion of the Turks again. Asana Chebo led the cavalry of Chebishi's troops to surround Gongyue City..."

...

While talking, Pei Shaoqing and the other two had already arrived outside Zichen Hall.

Today's dynasty meeting lasted until the beginning. Most officials dispersed and returned home after eating in the corridor, but some important officials were left behind and continued to participate in the inner dynasty of Zichen Hall.

The inner dynasty of Zichen Palace is the supreme authority that determines the fate of the empire.

Wu Zetian was discussing affairs with the ministers, and Gao Lingsong asked Pei Shaoqing to wait in the corridor first.

Pei Shaoqing vaguely heard someone mention the three words "Western Turks". It seems that this should be the Western Turks' rebellion.

Pei Shaoqing had also seen Zizhi Tongjian in his previous life and knew that the Eastern Turks, Western Turks, and later Turks surrendered and rebelled again, and rebelled again and surrendered again, and there was almost no time to calm down.
