Only then did Yufeng show his face and say:

"The host said it perfectly! At this moment, not only can we not get rid of that Wu Meiniang, but we also have to try to keep her. With her there, the Wang family will inevitably be in chaos, and then the master will persuade His Majesty to accept this woman into the inner palace to show the master's generosity. Your Majesty's dragon heart is happy, and he will definitely make the master the queen.

Wait until the master ascends to the back seat...... That Wu Meiniang is not to worry. ”

Xiao Liangdi smiled faintly and said proudly:

"Originally, she was not the opponent of this palace, so why worry?"

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled.

……

The tenth day of the sixth month of the twenty-third year of Zhenguan.

Li Zhi appointed the eldest grandson Wuji as the lieutenant, and concurrently inspected the school's middle school order, and was in charge of the affairs of the two provinces.

However, because Wuji remembered Empress Wende's last words, it was a matter of resigning from Shangshu Province, and Li Zhi had no choice but to agree. So he was ordered to be the third product of the Taiwei Tongzhongshu Door.

and a special gift of three thousand satins.

So the court knew the weight of the unscrupulous, and they attached it one after another.

……

June 13, 23rd year of Zhenguan.

Taizong filled Xu Hui, saw his parents and siblings, and was very happy, but he reunited with him with tears.

It's night, and I will sleep peacefully.

Wu Zhao, a talented person who lives together and wants to cut his hair, can see Xu Hui'an, and his heart is also at peace, but he secretly plans everything.

It's night.

Inside the Rizheng Palace.

As soon as Li Zhi entered, he saw Mei Niang dressed in soap-colored sea blue, standing in the hall. I couldn't help but feel excited-

These days are gone, but she is haggard.

When she wanted to ask, she suddenly didn't know where to start, so she stepped forward silently, her eyes only wandering back and forth in her face, but she couldn't speak.

After a long time, Mei Niang said softly:

"But the Lord has lost some weight."

A soft word, ten thousand feelings, really made Li Zhi's heart uncontrollable, and in an instant he ignited a fire of longing, and was about to step forward and hug her into his arms to relieve his lovesickness, but he saw her turn around and walk towards the back.

Li Zhi was stunned, and followed suit, only to see her sit down behind a chess table.

Smiling slightly, he stretched out his hand and motioned to Wang De and De'an, who came with him, to stay at the door of the palace, then he lifted the hem of his clothes, sat opposite her, and looked at her with a smile, with a warm pulse and overflowing words:

"Speaking of which, we haven't been able to play chess for a long time."

Mei Niang didn't smile and didn't worry, just nodded and motioned for Li Zhi to invite first.

Li Zhi took the white seed as always, and took the back hand.

The sound of chess ding, after a long time, Mei Niang said leisurely:

"It is good for the Lord to take the throne at the beginning and to do everything himself. But I also have to take care of my body. If the body collapses, no matter how much ambition you have, no matter how many skilled you are, it is useless. ”

If someone else said this, such as the crown princess Wang, or even Li Zhi, who was also a little pitiful, Liangdi Xiao, he would not be happy anymore, and he felt that the other party was really not with him at all.

But from Mei Niang's mouth, Li Zhi felt like manna brewing, drunk, Yi Yiran, but smiled happily and nodded, obediently:

"I know. From tomorrow onwards, some important matters will naturally be handed over to my uncle to take care of—since I have entered my uncle's official position, I deserve his help. ”

Mei Niang didn't say anything, but after she fell into a son, she said softly:

"To make the Lord trust the eldest grandson Taiwei so much, it is indeed evident that Taiwei's loyalty is ...... But the Lord has been difficult to walk on one foot since ancient times. In addition, the eldest grandson Taiwei is getting older, and it is not good to make him overwork after all.

Lord, don't forget that Lord Sui Liangyu is a protégé of the eldest grandson. Now on the surface, although he and the eldest grandson Taiwei are the same as the first assistant. But in the end, if he encounters something, he will still ask the eldest grandson Taiwei more......

In this way, isn't it still equivalent to needing to work on everything Taiwei Changsun? ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he was quite happy and said with a smile:

"Sure enough, you still know my heart...... Not bad. I have already summoned Li Ji back to the court, and I will be able to enter the seal in a few days. In this way, there is also some trade-off between the DPRK and China. Uncle is not overworked. ”

Mei Niang glanced at him, dropped lightly, and then said:

"The lord thinks that with General Li's temperament, how much worry can he share for the eldest grandson?"

Li Zhi was stunned, groaned slightly, and nodded after a while:

"Not bad. Li Ji is a man and very sleek. Although before, I borrowed my father's plan and took his heart into account.

But his talent may not be as good as he wishes. After all, in his eyes, I was just a child of good fortune. Therefore, he will follow me in small matters, but once he encounters something that requires him to take a stand and stand on my side, he will no longer be my rear force, and will only wait and see. ”

Mei Niang nodded:

"The Lord is wise, and naturally he has long seen through the situation between the DPRK and China. In order to stabilize the current situation, we need to find further help to achieve a balanced situation. ”

Li Zhi nodded, thought about it slightly, and suddenly remembered someone, looked up at Mei Niang and said:

"I have an idea, but I'm afraid it's ridiculous. Mei Niang, you know the most, but how about helping me think about it? ”

Mei Niang smiled lightly:

"But the Lord commands me."

Li Zhi frowned, although he didn't like her to be so polite, he still said:

"Uncle's biggest taboo seems to be the sixth uncle, but in fact, he is the eleventh uncle standing behind the sixth uncle.

However, before that, I was afraid that Uncle Sixth also knew that Uncle Eleventh intended to push him out to be a head ghost, so he must have had a gap with Uncle Eleven.

If you take advantage of their gap, it would be good to be able to use the sixth uncle temporarily.

But the only problem is that Uncle Sixth is really reckless and useless, and he is a capricious person. I really don't feel at ease to lure him back to Chang'an, so as to calm the momentum of the court.

Mei Niang, what do you think? Should I take this risk? ”

Mei Niang nodded, thought for a while, and said:

"The Lord's plan is indeed clever, and it is also the only way to resolve the impasse in front of which the ministers are not satisfied. However, as the Lord worries, King Jing is mediocre and useless, and he is a capricious person, and it is okay to be a pawn, but it is indeed useless.

Therefore, it is better for the Lord to find another suitable person. This man must be both talented and able to make his wisdom unparalleled, and the powerful eldest grandson Taiwei must not be despised and absolutely loyal to the Lord......"

Mei Niang sighed:

"In fact, the lord has long understood in his heart that His Royal Highness King Pu is the best candidate. It's just that the first emperor has just died, but it is not appropriate to promote prematurely. The best thing is to raise it again after a year and a half.

That's why ......

For a while, no one could be in this position. ”

Li Zhi smiled confidently and said:

"Who's to say no? is loyal to me and talented, but there is not only the fourth brother. Isn't there a third brother? ”

Mei Niang shook her head without thinking and earnestly persuaded:

"King Wu? Never!

Although he has loved the Lord since he was a child, he can be regarded as loyal to the Lord, but after all, King Wu is deeply entangled with Princess Gaoyang and His Royal Highness King Jing, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no dissent, Lord! ”
