Princess Taiping would invite Shangguan Wan'er and her mother to come with her, which was somewhat unexpected by Xue Shao. Because she usually eats Shangguan Wan'er's vinegar, from before she got married to the present, the vinegar she eats can be used in a specialty store.

After thinking about it carefully, Xue Shao realized in his heart that Princess Taiping wanted to appease her anger, and she was afraid that Song Zhiwen would make a big fuss.

Moreover, Shangguan Wan'er is no longer a pure beautiful woman. After the empress ascended the throne, she appointed her as the "Imperial Chief", and together with the Kudi clan, she became Wu Zetian's chief confidential secretary, and the two can be called Wu Zetian's right-hand men. Many of the submissions will be reviewed by them before they are presented to Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian will also let them be responsible for drafting many of the holy decrees that will be issued. This job originally belonged to the six sheren of the Feng Pavilion, so now many officials in the outer court secretly call Shangguan Wan'er "inner sheren".

Today's official Wan'er is no longer the little envoy who buried poems in the middle of the lake back then. Since she successfully completed the task of recruiting back the Northern Expeditionary Army, her status and importance in Wu Zetian's mind are constantly improving. Now Wu Zetian often takes the initiative to ask Shangguan Wan'er for advice, so that she can give advice on the presentation and various government affairs of the DPRK and China, and Shangguan Wan'er can always answer to make Wu Zetian satisfied. As a result, there are many decrees that are not only written or drafted by Shangguan Wan'er, but even the ideas are made by her.

This kind of power is convenient even for the prime minister of the political hall, which is beyond the reach of the dust. Therefore, there are many people who call her "the prime minister of women".

With such a woman, what minister wouldn't want to get close to her?

The next day, Shangguan Wan'er's mother and daughter and Wang Yu's family arrived at Princess Taiping's house.

Since Wang Yu was captured by the Turks, Wang Yu's family has not lived a day of peace. At the time of the expedition, Wang Yu's wife was pregnant, and now she has given birth to a boy, but she has never taken a big name.

Although it was a day of celebration for the New Year, the Wang family couldn't help crying when they saw Xue Shao. The royal father asked Xue Shao to name his grandson, and Xue Shao said, let his father name the child himself after he returned!

"Xue Gong, you said the math. Even if Wang Yu really comes back one day, he will be very happy to accept your name. Wang Yu's parents insisted repeatedly.

Xue Shao thought for a while and said, "Then call Wang Zhonghe!" ”

"Good, good name!" The Wang family wept with joy.

Xue Shao also sighed secretly, and said in his heart that Wang Zhongsi was a famous general of the Xuanzong Dynasty in history, his real name was Wang Xun, and the loyal heir was the name changed to him by Xuanzong. Now that history has changed, as long as I am alive, the possibility of Li Longji ascending to the throne is very small. Now I give this name to Wang Yu's child, hoping that his future achievements will not lose to that historical celebrity!

Princess Taiping had already placed a banquet and invited the guests to have a banquet in the main hall. The queen mother, the royal wife, and Shangguan Wan'er's mother refused to enter the main hall, so Princess Taiping persuaded them all to enter, saying that now they are all the heroines' world, where is there any need to take into account the stereotype that women do not enter the main banquet? I don't care about other families, the women who come to Princess Taiping's mansion can go to the main hall for a banquet!

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xue Shao's face, Xue Shao just smiled generously and helped Princess Taiping persuade them to join the banquet.

In order to prove that what she said was true, Princess Taiping called Yuenu, Chen Xian'er and Linlin sisters to accompany her. Eighteen Maiko not only performed singing and dancing in the hall, but also were responsible for accompanying the guests to drink orders.

But there is one detail that the Wang family and Shangguan Wan'er's mother and daughter have noticed. That is, it is always Xue Shao, the head of the family, who sits in the right position. Even Princess Taiping herself only sat beside him, and was not on an equal footing with him.

So everyone knew it, although the noble Princess Taiping kept emphasizing that the women of Princess Taiping's Mansion had the same treatment and status as men, Xue Shao also acquiesced. But in fact, it is Xue Shao who is the master of this family. His acquiescence was only a sign of tolerance and generosity.

Shangguan Wan'er's mother, Zheng, had been quietly looking at Xue Shao since she entered the door, and then couldn't help but whisper to her daughter: "Xue Gong is really a rare strange man in the world!" ”

"How?" Shangguan Wan'er asked puzzled.

Zheng smiled and said: "From the founding of Li Tang to the present, it can even be said that since the successive dynasties, the concubine is only a vassal of the princess. Princess Taiping's parents are both emperors, and her status is by no means comparable to that of any princess. But you can see that no, although Xue Shao is silent and not very social, the scene is all controlled by Princess Taiping alone. But in fact, Xue Shao has the final say in this family. ”

Shangguan Wan'er smiled and said nothing, and said in her heart that if it weren't for that, would we still be here?

At this time, Xue Shao came over to toast. Shangguan Wan'er's mother and daughter hurriedly got up.

The two sides said some words of congratulations to Xinxi, and Zheng said: "I have heard the name of Xue Gong for a long time, and I can see it today, and sure enough, Long Zi Fengyi is like a fairy figure." What an eye-opener! ”

Are you complimenting me on being handsome?

Xue Shao felt a little embarrassed, and said in his heart that this is the legend, does the mother-in-law like her son-in-law more and more?

Shangguan Wan'er's face turned red, and she hurriedly whispered: "Mother, you say something else!" ”

Zheng smiled, "What else can you say when you are old for your mother?" ”

This is even more obvious.

Xue Shao hurriedly laughed, "Mrs. Zheng is in her prime, why is she old?" I think you and my sister-in-law should be about the same age. By the way, I wonder if my wife still has an impression of my eldest brother? ”

Zheng blinked his eyes and thought for a long time, and said: "Brother Ling, could it be that he was the poet friend of his late husband, Hedong Xue Yuma?" ”

Xue Shao smiled, "That's my father." ”

"Apologize, apologize! I've lived in the palace for so long that I don't remember a lot of things. Zheng hurriedly apologized and said, "I probably remembered." The grandfather of the late husband and Wan'er once became friends with a pair of Xue father and son. Come to think of it, it's Ling Zun and Brother Ling? ”

"Yes."

Shangguan Wan'er said: "Mother, my daughter once met Xue Gong's elder brother Hedong County Gong, and now she worships Guandong Guan's Shangshu. He was a gentle, elegant and humble gentleman, and he told me about my father and grandfather. ”

"It turns out that it's still an old man!" Zheng suddenly stirred up, and his eyes were red.

"Mrs. Zheng, let's let the past pass." Xue Shao raised his glass, "The important thing is that we have to live our current life well." In this way, the thoughts of the ancestors in the heavenly spirit are not in vain. ”

"Xue Gong said it well!" Zheng raised his glass with deep admiration, "Wan'er, let's come to honor Xue Gong together!" ”

Xue Shao toasted, and after a while, Princess Taiping came again. The way she toasted was different from Xue Shao's. Because she is a woman, she can sit by Zheng's side affectionately. And she has known the Zheng family since she grew up in the palace, and they have crossed paths with each other.

"I wonder if Mrs. has ever thought about moving outside the palace to live and start a new life?" Princess Taiping asked.

Zheng blinked, "This ......"

"You are already free, and Wan'er has also become the imperial court of the inner court. Moreover, you still have relatives outside the palace. Princess Taiping pointed to the Wang family on the other side, and then said, "If you are willing to live outside the palace, the palace can take care of it on your behalf." ”

"No, no, why dare you bother Her Royal Highness?" Zheng hurriedly said, "It's just that our mother and daughter have lived in the palace for so many years, and they are used to it. If you want to live outside the palace again, for a while, I'm afraid it will be difficult to adapt? ”

"In terms of the personal experience of the main palace, the life outside the palace is more than 100 times more comfortable and free. But there's no hurry, you can think about it slowly. If you think about it one day, you can talk to this palace one day. Princess Taiping smiled and said, "This matter has been explained in advance by the palace, and you are not allowed to push back or entrust others at that time?" ”

"Okay, okay." Zheng was grateful, "Then our mother and daughter, let's thank Her Royal Highness Princess first!" ”

Seeing Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er's mother and daughter chatting intimately and energetically over there, Xue Shao couldn't help but think in his heart, although Princess Taiping has always been tolerant and even conniving with herself in terms of men and women. But her approach to Shangguan Wan'er has obviously gone beyond the narrow scope of male and female love.

Princess Taiping's political consciousness is waking up step by step.

A long time ago, because I didn't want her to become what she was in history, I always tried my best to prevent Princess Taiping from participating in politics. But now it seems that Princess Taiping's path to politics is almost a historical inevitability. Who made her born in an era when the heroine was in power, and who made her mother the only empress in Chinese history, and she was the only beloved daughter of the empress?

Besides, I really feel a little inseparable from her now. Because it is inconvenient for me to come forward in person for many things, Princess Taiping can only take over. The help and convenience that this princess of the two dynasties has provided to her life and career is immeasurable!

Unconsciously, Xue Shao had changed his original intention of not letting Princess Taiping participate in politics, and instead cooperated with her. But there is one principle that Xue Shao adheres to, that is, "the husband sings and the wife follows". This is not out of machismo thinking, but Xue Shao believes that power is not only a charming poppy that will make people crazy and addicted, but also a double-edged sword that kills people and hurts themselves. Princess Taiping's royal nature determines that it is difficult for her to grasp the balance in the power field, and if she is not careful, she will involuntarily lose herself, just like Princess Taiping in history, embark on a road of no return to destruction. What I have to do now is not only to let Princess Taiping fully exert her freedom in the power field, but also to restrain her from over-inflating the thunder pool.

This made Xue Shao feel like he was playing a fairytale-type cultivation game. After many years of hard work, he achieved a little success, but when he turned around, he found that Princess Taiping beside him was the unborn genius. So the two began to double cultivate together, and they were both her close Taoist companions and her life mentors.

Later, Princess Taiping returned to Xue Shao's side and smiled skillfully, "I told them!" ”

"Say what?" Xue Shao was puzzled.

"Outside the palace!" Princess Taiping said, "Only in this way can you and Shangguan Wan'er have a lover and finally become a family!" ”

"......" Xue Shao grinned, and still don't talk. Once such a topic is launched, sooner or later it will be poured vinegar on the face.

"What's the matter, I'm a wife, I'm big enough, right?" Princess Taiping asked unrelentingly.

Xue Shao turned his head and cast his eyes on Princess Taiping's half-naked breasts, "Well, big, big, really big, very big!" ”

Princess Taiping's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she quietly threw a wink, "Obediently, I'll talk about it at night!" ”.
