Song Zhiwen's murder case was soon investigated. Originally, the Si Xing Temple sentenced him to 3,000 li of exile in accordance with the law, but after the review by the Qiu Guan (Criminal Department), the sentence was changed to death by hanging. Fengge Luantai unanimously passed and handed it to Wu Zetian's hand, and the emperor waved his pen to allow it to be executed.

In this way, a sensational poetry snatching murder case that shocked the literary world fell to the ground. What awaits Song Zhi is not only a death apology, but also a stench of 10,000 years.

Few people know that the cause of all this is just because Song Zhiwen was drunk and molested and bullied Shangguan Wan'er. But from the day Song Zhiwen was discovered, Wu Sansi never dared to appear in front of Shangguan Wan'er again. Even if she accidentally bumped into her, Wu Sansi didn't look at her anymore and took a detour.

Gradually, those literati who followed Wu Zetian's side also saw the clues. In the past, even if they didn't really want to impress Shangguan Wan'er's heart, they would involuntarily offer their affection in front of Shangguan Wan'er. Talented and beautiful people are attracted to each other, which is out of a certain nature. But now, they no longer dare to be distracted, their words and deeds are extremely disciplined and restrained, and they completely regard Shangguan Wan'er as a goddess who cannot be blasphemed. In the circle of scribes and elegant people in the capital, there is even a saying that a famous lady is talented and beautiful, and she cares about the city and then the soul!

These words gradually reached Shangguan Wan'er's ears, she was both funny and helpless, could it be that I am a witch?

But without the harassment of such wild phoenixes and butterflies around her, it really made Shangguan Wan'er feel more peaceful. In addition to serving Wu Zetian, she can read her writing and her poems with peace of mind. Mother Zheng would mention Xue Shao in front of her from time to time, and Shangguan Wan'er would gag her with the sentence "He is a colt". But often, my mother's mouth is blocked, but I can't help but think of that from time to time in my heart - "The man who is domineering and unreasonable, and turned me into a witch!" ”

More than ten days have passed since the Shangyuan Festival, and everything is peaceful. This day coincided with the official holiday in Beijing, so the night before, Xue Shao drove the long-lost boat and floated out of Luoyang City to the old place to fish for Princess Taiping's beloved perch.

After half a day, Xue Shao gained a lot, and couldn't help but feel good. He stewed a large pot of good fish on the boat, and asked Guo An and the sailors to drink a few glasses of wine with him.

After being full of wine and food, Xue Shao fell asleep, slept soundly and didn't dream, and when he woke up, it was already dark. He opened his eyes slightly and muttered, "Are you home?" ”

"Husband, I've already arrived home." It was Chen Xian'er's voice, "I told the sailors to rest, and I waited here." But I was sleepy, so I fell asleep together. How much alcohol have you drunk, and the whole cabin is full of alcohol? ”

Xue Shao smiled, "Drink happily and sleep comfortably." ”

Chen Xian'er turned on the lamp and said, "Shangguan Wan'er has been waiting for you for a long time." I saw that you were drunk and fell asleep and didn't wake you up, and she is still waiting! ”

"Oh?" Xue Shao came to his senses, "Where are the people?" ”

"In the Zhao Guogong Mansion. I called my servant to serve. Chen Xian'er said, "Perhaps, there is something important?" ”

Xue Shao immediately got up, "Since you know it's an important matter, why don't you wake me up?" ”

"Shangguan Wan'er didn't let me wake you up, saying that she would wait for you to wake up." Chen Xian'er smiled, "She came to see the boat, and even sat next to you for a long time." Presumably you don't know all this? ”

Xue Shao was stunned, "My sleeping appearance has always been ugly, and now she knows it all?" ”

"Don't worry, you slept soundly, at least you didn't drool." Chen Xian'er giggled, "I'll go get you water and wash your face." ”

Xue Shao smiled bitterly, "Xian'er, Xian'er, now even you have learned to pit me!" ”

Later, Xue Shao and Chen Xian'er abandoned the boat and went ashore together and entered the Zhao State Mansion.

This mansion is so big that Xue Shao almost got lost all the way in the middle of the night. The candlelight in the living room was very bright, and Shangguan Wan'er sat there reading a book peacefully. Xue Shao deliberately checked before entering, hey, Shangguan Wan'er doesn't seem to have brought an attendant today!

Chen Xian'er smiled warmly, "Husband, I'll go prepare some supper." Want wine? ”

"It's better to get some aphrodisiac!" Xue Shao made a vicious appearance.

Chen Xian'er giggled and left.

Shangguan Wan'er obviously heard Xue Shao's voice, and couldn't help but blush, and said in the hall: "This is not like the means of heroes. ”

Xue Shao walked in laughing, "I've kept you waiting, Wan'er." ”

"It's not long." Shangguan Wan'er put down the book and stood up, "It's still too late to go and talk back to Your Majesty now." ”

Xue Shao blinked, "The imperial city has been closed, and Your Majesty has also slept peacefully." Are you still in a hurry to go back? ”

"Your Majesty's decree, when I get a reply from Duke Xue, I will return to the palace to reply to my life, no matter the hour." Shangguan Wan'er said.

"In this way, it is really an important thing." Xue Shao pointed to the couch, "Let's sit down and talk!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er sat down and handed Xue Shao a beautifully framed notebook. Xue Shao picked it up and saw that it was the state letter submitted by the Turkic Khanate.

The Turkic Khan is stubborn and willing to recognize Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty as his godmother and call himself a Khan. He hoped that the two countries would be able to stop fighting and reconcile from now on, and that the Turkic state would be willing to pay tribute every year from now on, and release a group of captured officials, soldiers and civilians to show their sincerity.

"The Turks are quite sincere in suing for peace this time." Xue Shao looked at it carefully for a while and said, "What about the person who sent the national letter?" ”

"The Turks could not enter the customs without permission, and only handed over their credentials to Shan Yu Dadufu. It was sent by Xenne on a fast horse. Shangguan Wan'er replied, "Now, more than ten members of the Turkic mission are waiting for a reply north of the Mokou Pass. Your Majesty said, you have to make up your mind about this matter first. ”

"I'll have to think about it." Xue Shao stared at the national letter and thought seriously.

"How long are you going to think?"

"At least one night." Xue Shao said it seriously.

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but want to laugh, "Didn't you deliberately embarrass me?" ”

"For such an important military event, don't you think it's too much for one night?" Xue Shao looked at Shangguan Wan'er seriously.

Shangguan Wan'er nodded with a helpless wry smile, and said in her heart that this kind of thing is all justified by him, how can I talk about him?

"Hey, hey!" Xue Shao couldn't help laughing, Wan'er, Wan'er, don't think about going anywhere tonight!

Originally, Xue Shao's heart didn't hide this little Jiujiu from Shangguan Wan'er, or he didn't plan to hide it. But when this strange laugh came out, Shangguan Wan'er was a little embarrassed and couldn't sit still. She quickly stood up, "You think slowly, I'll go to the courtyard for a walk." ”

"Don't move, just sit here." Xue Shao stopped her as soon as he stretched out his hand, "You're not around, where can I still think?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er laughed abruptly, and sighed helplessly, "It's really good to be lonely in the middle of the night?" ”

"So what?" Xue Shao put down the national letter, "From the Son of Heaven to the people, who doesn't know that your Shangguan Wan'er is my Xue Shao's beloved woman?" But there are one or two fools who drink too much and dare to provoke you, what will happen? ”

Since the window paper has been pierced, Shangguan Wan'er is too lazy to be hypocritical, and said hatefully: "You are still embarrassed to say it, look at the good things you have done!" ”

"What am I doing wrong?" Xue Shao spread his hands, looking very innocent.

"If someone drinks too much and accidentally provokes me, you will kill him." Shangguan Wan'er said, "As soon as this incident is troubled, I am as terrifying and scary as a witch in the eyes of others." Will I be able to live in peace in the future? ”

"So, am I wrong?" Xue Shao frowned.

"You are not wrong, he did commit the evil act of stealing poetry and killing people, and he deserves all his crimes. I also know that you are bent on being good to me. Shangguan Wan'er smiled bitterly, "But, can you not be so domineering and exaggerated?" ”

"That can't be helped. I'm just such a temper tantrum that I can't change it. Xue Shao picked up the national letter again, staring at it intently, as if he had an enmity with this national letter.

Seeing Xue Shao's appearance, Shangguan Wan'er knew that he was in an emotion. She couldn't help but laugh, how old is she, and she is still awkward like a child?

"Hey, do you have to stare at two holes in this national letter?" Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile.

Xue Shao was unmoved, and he didn't care.

Shangguan Wan'er smiled and said, "Today, Your Majesty asked me to draw up a decree to depose Wei Fangzhen as the prime minister and send him to Yizhou to be the governor of the capital." ”

Xue Shao was stunned and threw down the national letter, "Is there such a thing?" ”

"Can I make a false will?" Shangguan Wan'er said, "It is the emperor's prerogative to appoint a prime minister, and he can not consult anyone. Moreover, the governor of Yizhou is also the pillar of the feudal officials, and there are many precedents for recruiting important ministers to take office, and no one is impeccable. So the political hall and the Fengge Luantai unanimously passed, and the holy decree was immediately issued and implemented, and it is estimated that Wei Fangzhen is now packing up and preparing to go on the road! ”

Fuck, it's so fast!

Xue Shao scolded with hatred in his heart, thought for a moment, and then said, "Have you heard, why did Your Majesty suddenly remove Wei Fangzhen's phase and release him?" ”

"I don't know." Shangguan Wan'er shook her head and said, "I only found that Wu Chengsi has frequently made suggestions to His Majesty recently, wanting Cen Changqian to take command and go on an expedition to the Western Regions. ”

"Wu Chenghei, this bastard!" Xue Shao was suddenly angry, "Where can Cen Changqian fight, isn't this a death that does not pay for his life, and the army and the country are misguided?!" I have just entered the map of the Western Regions, and he has used such a trick to beat snakes and sticks, he really deserves to be killed! ”

"Obviously, Wu Chengsi can't wait to blast Wei Fangzhen and Cen Changqian out of the court." Shangguan Wan'er said, "Now Wei Fangzhen has been driven away. If you, the important minister in charge of military affairs, don't come forward again, the next one will definitely be Cen Changqian. ”

Xue Shao's eyebrows tightened, and he said seriously: "You're right, it's time for me to come forward." I can't talk about Wei Fangqian's matter, but the matter of marching and fighting is not the turn of Wu Chenghe's idiot to talk more! ”

"Now you know why I'm in a hurry to go back to the palace to get my life, right?" Shangguan Wan'er smiled, "Negotiate peace with the Turks and expedition to the Western Regions, these are all your ideas." There must be a deep connection between the two. The sooner you discuss it with Your Majesty, the sooner you will be able to shut Wu Chenghe's mouth. Otherwise, it is really difficult to guarantee that His Majesty will be moved by Wu Chenghe's words and let Cen Changqian take command and go on the expedition. At that time, Cen Changqian will be in danger, and you will be passive. ”

"I believe that Your Majesty should not have forgotten the last Helong Incident. There is no morning today, let's have some supper, drink a glass of wine and then set off together, and enter the palace early in the morning. I'm going to have a good talk with His Majesty the Emperor today! Xue Shao smiled, "Wan'er, Wan'er, you are so caring, I like you more and more." How good is that? ”

Shangguan Wan'er's face flushed slightly, and said, "Don't go along." I'll go to the palace first to report it, and how about you come back later? ”

"You are no longer the imperial concubine, what is there to fear? Which woman does Xue fall in love with, and who can control it? Xue Shao said, "Today, I'm going to take your hand and enter the palace together!" ”

"Don't be like this, be willful like a child." Shangguan Wan'er smiled bitterly, "Okay, you should also take into account the feelings of Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping, right?" ”

"Calm, I'm joking!" Xue Shao laughed, sighed again, and said hatefully: "A good cave room spent a candle night, and it was ruined like this!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er raised her feet and left, "You can slowly cave the house alone, I'll go to the courtyard and wait for you!" ”
