Chang'an, Lishan, Huaqing Palace, Nine Dragon Palace.

The Empress Wu's living room has been moved here.

There are courtesy officials and Qin Tianjian officials opposed, thinking that the terrain here is high and improper, abrupt and isolated, no mountains and rivers around the protection, ominous, the palace and nine dragons return to the sun, is the meaning of soaring, not in the middle of the peace, facing east and west, not in line with the pattern of sitting north and facing south of the Son of Heaven.

Wu Hou ignored it.

She summoned Quan Ce, repelled the people around her, and on the high platform of the Nine Dragons Hall, in the cold wind of late autumn, wearing only a light veil, the middle door was wide open, and she danced.

Spring is boundless.

Quan Ce'an sat on the couch and admired it quietly, his eyes swaying with her dancing, never molested or avoided.

After a dance, nearly half an hour has passed, and the final ceremony of the martial queen is to ride on Quan Ce's body and hold his head in his arms.

"How, is it beautiful?" Empress Wu gasped for a while and arched herself on him.

Skin to skin, or sensitive, Quan Ce unexpectedly a little strange, stretched out his hand to hold her smooth back as jade, only to exercise vigorously, hot, sit back slightly, open some distance, and said frankly, "Your Majesty's dancing posture is beautiful, but the body is more beautiful"

"Giggles, hahaha" Empress Wu laughed, the flowers and branches trembled, and her body trembled everywhere, and for a while, the peaks and mountains were like gathering, and the waves were like anger, "What a little thief, but he was a real villain"

Quan Ce's face did not change, smiled lightly, calm and natural.

Empress Wu looked down at him, her hands ran along his forehead, eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose, touched carefully, outlined the outline of his soft and heroic face, stopped on his chin, leaned down, touched it lightly with her red lips, giggled, and commented, "Grown up, stubble piercing, not as cute as when I was a teenager"

Quan Ce was generous, looked at her on his back, and said softly, "The minister is close to the year of his establishment, and there are some changes, which are really the masters of creation and nature, and it is difficult to disobey manpower."

Empress Wu's face stiffened, and she heard the sound of Quan Ce, and immediately stood up with his shoulders and hummed twice, "Until next spring, you will only turn twenty-five years old, and you will not be ashamed to say that you will be in the year of establishment."

Quan Ce followed her footsteps and stood up, picked up a thick golden brocade robe, and wrapped her.

Empress Wu slowly stepped onto the Danqi, sat on the throne of the main hall with his clothes, looked at the dazzling gold, raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, and asked as if unintentionally, "Quan Ce, there are many tragedies in the world, what is the reason for the beginning?" ”

Quan Ce was silent for a moment and did not respond positively, "Your Majesty, the minister has shallow experience, and secretly thinks that Buddhism has three precepts to say that it is very good, greed, hatred, and obsession are the source of tragedy in the world."

"Hahaha" Empress Wu laughed loudly again, dragged him to his side, sat on the throne together, and poked a finger on his forehead, "You, you, you have to slide your head tightly, last time you used the eight bitterness of Buddhism to prevaricate me, this time there are three precepts of Buddhism, you read the Buddhist scriptures, is it used to deal with me?" ”

"The minister doesn't dare" Quan Ce smiled bitterly, this kind of coincidence is also inexplicable.

"That's it" Empress Wu laughed enough, stretched out a finger, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, leaned her head sideways on his shoulder, pointed to the vast mountains and clouds outside the temple gate, and asked, "From here, is it different from other places?" ”

Quan Ce didn't look at it, nor did he answer, just smiled warmly and took care of her loose hair.

Empress Wu chuckled, didn't care, and no longer went around in circles, straight to the point, "Outside the Shendu, two tragedies, thousands of dead and wounded, all officers and soldiers, my Nanya military guard, has become a domestic chicken and duck, anyone can catch up, catch a catch, do you have any opinions?" ”

Without waiting for Quan Ce to answer, Empress Wu said again, "Hou Sizhi is your person, and it is too coincidental that the new Death Regiment of Youyu Yuwei will be at the right time."

Quan Ce was not flustered, he muttered for a while, he had a lot of clues, and he didn't know where to start for a while, his tone was deep, and he opened his heart.

"Your Majesty, since the ministers entered the court and entered politics, they have held the faith, do something, do something, do nothing, big festivals, big gifts, big rules, have always been regarded as the norm, and dare not disobey in the slightest"

"For the country and the people, loyal to duty, a stick to the original intention, willing to be a minister, protect the well-being of the family, accidentally, caught in chaos, there is a response, but also the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, it has to be, Your Majesty sees thousands of miles, can know the actions of the ministers, do not rise and unrighteous disputes, rather than half of the crossing, and then attack people"

"If no one is vainly greedy, hateful, and ignorant, the minister will not get this high position as the first assistant, and it will be even more difficult to become the name of undefeated in the court."

Empress Wu listened to him quietly, and she didn't feel harsh, Quan Ce was so open and honest, representing self-confidence, which she recognized.

rolled his eyelids and made up half a sentence for him, and he got the first assistant in a high position, and became the name of the undefeated dynasty, and the momentum of gathering tails was unstoppable.

Greed, hatred, and three thoughts, not only her group of unsuccessful sons and nephews, but also herself.

She asked herself that there were not a lot of suspicions, suppressions and restrictions on the power policy, and it was just commonplace to be rewarded for meritorious service, and his title was still the county duke, the position of the first assistant, and it was also pressed again and again before he was allowed to come up, and when she went to Chang'an, she also took him with her, called Qinhou, but it was actually a precaution.

Why did it still come to this point?

Empress Wu took a deep breath, put aside these distracting thoughts, the coming day is long, and she has to slowly recuperate, she can't be anxious, it is better to deal with the matter in front of her properly.

"Do you believe that Li Dan will murder his imperial brother?"

"Your Majesty, the minister has no evidence, don't dare to say anything" Quan Ce said something that made the political veterans laugh off their big teeth, in the struggle, there is only the spearhead pointing at, evidence? What's that?

Empress Wu tugged at his earlobe and whispered in his ear, "Xian is dead, I only have one son"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that His Royal Highness the Prime Minister has a noble status, is the emperor of the two dynasties, and his bloodline is the highest in the world, no matter what, it must be continued" Quan Ce said sincerely, obviously referring not only to the matter in front of him.

Empress Wu smiled and nodded, and let go of a lot of her thoughts, she believed in Quan Ce's promise, he promised not to oppress Li Dan openly, and naturally he would not do anything in secret.

"Hou Sizhi has a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, since he controlled Zuo Yuchaowei, I appointed him as the general of Zuo Yuchaowei, and by the way, Zuo Yuchaowei was also reorganized."

"Quan Zhu is also older, and he has decided on a family affair, and the right jade guard is handed over to him, I can rest assured, the vacated General Yu Linwei will be handed over to Wu Chongxun, and his title of King of Gaoyang will also be restored."

"Li Chongfu suppressed Zuo Leopard Taowei, but it was a bit of a surprise, this Zuo Leopard Taowei general, I will reward him"

"Zhang Fang was transferred to the Qiu official squire, and there is still a vacancy in the Qiu Guan Yamen, which will be filled by Zhang Changqi"

"Chunguan Shangshu Li Shangyin is dead, and the vacancy is filled by Song Zhiwen, and Lin Gu is promoted to squire"

"What do you think?"

Empress Wu said a bunch of transfers and assignments, although Wu Chongxun also got two jujubes, but the intention of supporting the two Zhang brothers was clear at a glance, and he turned his head to ask Quan Ce's opinion, and his heart was a little unprecedented.

Quan Ce skillfully avoided her not very confident gaze, "Your Majesty is wise, the minister has another proposal, and I hope Your Majesty will consider it."

"You say," the Empress Wu stared at him.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Jiyang County and the Shaofu Supervisor ordered Wu Chongxing to promote the central money village meritorious, benefit the business road, accumulate countless wealth, enrich the country and enrich the people, fetter the feudal state, meritorious to the country, the minister is willing to ask for the title of Jin for him, in order to show his merits"

When Empress Wu heard this, she was greatly surprised, and her condensed gaze gradually dispersed.
