Chapter 493: No Trivial Matters in the Family of the Emperor (Part 2)

The fifth update is to make the leader more hurtful and the rain falls red!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After several daughters left, Wei left Li Xianhui.
She wanted to find out who this meant, and if it was Yang Shouwen's idea, what he wanted to do.
It's just obvious that Li Xianhui is not very clear about the situation.
"Oh, why are you worried about this? Although Gou'er is a little naughty, she will not harm her own family."
"But, I always feel that this matter may really be related to Yang Shouwen. You also know that Guer's temper is naive, but he is actually very naive. He is with Yang Shouwen all day long, what if he is bewitched by him?"
"So what if you are bewitched? That's not the lonely son-in-law?"
Li Xian was a little unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Zi Tong, I know you are dissatisfied with Qingzhi, but you must understand that Qingzhi will be our son-in-law in the future. Even if Guer has no title, it will not change the fact that he is my son-in-law.
Don't worry, Qingzhi won't harm us.
I think it might be a good thing for Guer to look for everyone this time.
Haven't you heard of it? Yesterday, Di Gong went to Taohuayu and talked with Yang Shouwen for a long time... Maybe it's related to this matter?"
"Di Gong went to Taohuayu?"
Wei was stunned when he heard this and hurriedly looked at Li Xian.
A smile appeared on Li Xian's chubby round face and said softly: "This may be a good thing for me."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Outside the window, it was drizzling.
Di Gong sat in the study and read the newspaper.
Although he no longer cared about the government affairs, the court's official report had never stopped.
He has worked hard for fifty years for Li Tang. Even though his energy and body are not as good as before, his concern for the court has never stopped. It is precisely for this reason that Wu Zetian always respects him.
"Anxi, Anxi!"
After reading a newspaper, Di Gong closed his eyes and muttered to himself.
After a moment, he stood up and walked to the map.
This is a picture of the territory of the Tang Dynasty. It looks very new and should have been posted for a while.
In fact, the map in Di Gong’s study was changed almost every month when he was in good health.
Sometimes it is normal to change three or five maps a month.
The map is marked with arrows of different colors, which also represents the situation around the Tang Dynasty.
He held his hands behind his back, gently tapped the back of his right hand with his index finger, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.
The territory of the Tang Dynasty was vast, but the actual situation was not as beautiful as imagined. Looking around with wolves, it was really a group of wolves... Tubo, Turks, Khitan, Mohe, Liuzhao, Annan... and the newly marked Japanese country.
Su Wo Sanlang's confession shocked the court.
Wu Zetian was also quite angry and felt confused by the Japanese.
Last year, Wu Zetian wanted to launch an army to fight. But Di Renjie dissuaded Wu Zetian, not because he did not want to fight, but because the situation in Japan was far from reaching the level of launching an army. He attached more importance to the Hu people around him.
Tibet!
Since Emperor Taizong married him, he has been calm for a while and has begun to get ready again.
In just the four towns in Anxi, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty have confronted each other several times...
In the first year of Yifeng, after Songtsen Gampo's grandson Mangsen died of illness, his son Chidu Songzan succeeded to the throne and became the 35th Tubo person Zanpu Chidu Songzan, also known as Du Songmangbo. Many people think that he is the descendant of Songtsen Gampo and has a close relationship with the Tang Dynasty. But in fact, starting with Mangsen Mangsen, the relationship between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty is no longer the same as before.
In the early days of the reign of Songzan of Chidu, Tubo was controlled by the Geer family.
The Geer family's outstanding military achievements made the Geer family's prestige become higher and higher. Chidu Zanpu probably learned from King Goujian of Yue and slept with firewood and tasted gall for more than ten years. In the first year of Tongtian, he took advantage of the defeat of the Geer family in the Western Regions and killed Bo Lunzan Ren. But the following year, Lunzan and Zhengzan Zangdun defeated Wang Xiaojie, which made Tubo gain the upper hand again.
Du Songmangbojie intends to strike while the iron is hot and capture Qinghai.
However, Lun Qinling arbitrarily negotiated peace with Wu Zetian, which made Du Songmangbojie angry and embarrassed.
In the first year of Shengli, Du Songmangbojie conspired with his minister Lunyan to kill Lunqinling's troops, and Chidu Songzan immediately took control.
Chidu Songzan has always been eyeing the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and has been constantly provoking since the second year of Shengli.
It is precisely for this reason that the situation in the Western Regions has always been in an extremely chaotic state...
Di Renjie frowned and looked at several places on the map that were painted in red, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
At this moment, the door of the study room was suddenly knocked.
"who?"
Di Renjie showed impatience and shouted in a deep voice.
"Father, a guest is here to visit."
It was Di Guangzhao... As his words fell, the door opened.
A man walked in from outside the house, wearing a black robe and a veil and hat covering his face.
However, her gender can be seen from her walking posture. She walked into the room and gently took off her hat.
"My de Di Renjie, pay homage to the saint."
Di Renjie saw the person clearly and was relieved, but he was not too surprised.
The person who came was Wu Zetian.
"Huaiying, it seems that my visit is within your expectations."
Wu Zetian put down the hat and waved his hand. The door was immediately closed. She walked to the desk, looked at the newspapers on the desk, then looked at the map on the wall, and then walked around the desk and sat down.
She seemed to be very familiar with the study room, and it seemed that it was not the first time she visited.
Di Renjie smiled slightly and said softly: "The old minister has been waiting for the saint to come since yesterday, but he didn't expect to wait for the whole day."
"You mean I'm late?"
"I don't dare."
Wu Zetian and Di Renjie spoke casually, but at first glance they didn't look like monarch and minister, but more like friends.
In fact, she and Di Renjie are indeed friends.
From the day she took charge of the harem, she knew Di Renjie.
After she ascended the throne, she faced internal and external troubles because of Di Renjie's efforts to accompany her through difficulties.
She is already seventy-five, and Di Renjie is already seventy this year.
There was no affair between her and him, but in Wu Zetian's eyes, Di Renjie was more like her confidant.
After the two looked at each other and smiled, Wu Zetian's eyes fell on the tea boat in the house.
"Is this what you got from Elder Calling?"
"That's right!" Di Renjie did not hide it and smiled: "The saint came just right. I have learned a new way to drink tea, which is just right to demonstrate to the saint."
He was not polite either, so he sat down behind the tea boat and started to boil water.
"It's a pity that I am not as particular as Qingzhi's side. In order to eat tea, he only took the colostrum spring water from Cuiyun Peak. It rained these two days, and the old minister was unable to send someone to get it, which made the taste of this tea not as fragrant as Qingzhi."
Wu Zetian was not surprised and walked to the tea boat to sit down.
"I didn't expect that Di Huaiying, who was upright, would accept gifts from others."
"Hahaha, it's natural that Yang Qingzhi asked Lao Chen for this gift."
A glimmer of light flashed in Wu Zetian's eyes and said in a deep voice: "Does he ask for you Yu Huaiying?"
Di Renjie is absolutely familiar with Wu Zetian's temper and personality, and he cannot understand him any more. The more you go around with her, the greater her suspicion will be. If she talks about some things, she can feel relieved.
Di Renjie smiled and said, "What's so strange about him asking for help from Laochen?"
"What did he ask for you?"
"Sage, please drink tea first."
Di Renjie had already made a tea dish and presented the teacup to Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian smiled slightly, took the teacup, and took a sip.
"Well... it's not bad, the fragrance is light and elegant, but it's different from the tea soup I've drunk before.
Moreover, the method of drinking tea is different from the method recorded in the "Tea Classic" written by Yang Qingzhi, but it seems to taste better."
After saying that, she drank it all in one go.
"There is a whole lotus, and the tea tastes better."
"Haha, the old minister knew that the saint would like it.
Come on, the old minister also has a tea poem: People say that all flowers are good, but I call the only king of tea. A cup clears the heart and leaves fragrance when you enter your dreams.
Saint, please tea.”
"A cup clears the heart, and it will leave fragrance when you enter your dreams."
The smile in Wu Zetian's eyes became stronger. He ate another cup, then closed his eyes and slowly savored it.
After a long time, she opened her eyes and said, "Huaiying, this poem is written by Qing."
Di Renjie smiled, but did not answer Wu Zetian's question. Instead, he filled her with another cup and said softly: "Yang Qingzhi wants to go to the Western Regions." (To be continued.)
