The beginning of the king guards the Great Wall

Chapter 74 The Empress Wants to Retreat

In the palace, besides Wu Zetian, there was another man present.

Wearing a loose warlock uniform, the corners of his mouth are always slightly raised.

"Your Majesty, the sun, the moon, and the sky are very close. Haven't you made a decision yet?"

Warlock squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of bewitching in his tone.

Wu Zetian didn't make a sound, and secretly clenched the jade hands on the dragon chair.

The sun and the moon are in the same sky, which is a rare phenomenon in a thousand years.

Legend has it that on this day, the inverted sky will come to the world.

Upside down sky, the most mysterious existence in the Continent of Kings, where many creation gods are active.

The heaven that all warriors look up to.

In addition to being the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian also has a more prominent identity, that is, a descendant of the Protoss.

And it is the descendant of Nuwa, the leader of the protoss.

Wu Zetian's martial arts journey has reached a bottleneck, the half-step king is almost her upper limit, no matter how hard she tries, she can't break through at all.

If she can enter the inverted sky while the sun and the moon are in the same sky, and meet her ancestor Nuwa, she will definitely be able to help her take the last step.

Become a god who truly lives the same life as the heaven and the earth.

But if she enters the Hanging Heaven, she doesn't know if she can return to the human world.

If not, she will lose her empress status forever.

It is really difficult to choose between the hope of hitting a higher level and the seat of the emperor on earth.

Wu Zetian is still thinking about it.

At this time, footsteps came from outside the hall, it was Cheng Yaojin who came back with Jiang Ming and others.

"See Your Majesty!"

Everyone said in unison, even Liu Zhe bowed down respectfully.

The identity of the Empress of the Tang Dynasty is not enough to make him afraid, but the identity of the descendant of Nuwa is enough.

After all, his ancestor, the Shadow God, was one of Nuwa's subordinates.

"Are you the purest descendant of the Shadow God?"

Wu Zetian looked at Liu Zhe condescendingly.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes."

Liu Zhe hurriedly replied, the suppression in his blood made him almost unable to lift his head.

A look of disappointment flashed in Wu Zetian's eyes.

Liu Zhe was invited by her to help her open the door to Hanging Heaven.

But this genius of the Shadow God Race doesn't seem to be as powerful as she imagined.

Liu Zhe's divine blood is less than one-tenth of hers.

The upper limit is the lower level of Xingyao, and it may even be lower.

This is still the person with the strongest blood in the family.

"Have the descendants of the Protoss come to this point?"

Wu Zetian sighed inwardly.

In fact, the Nuwa blood in Wu Zetian's body is already very small, and it is even decreasing a little bit.

She guessed that it should be the reason why Nu Wa did not show up for thousands of years.

If this continues, perhaps one day her bloodline strength will become as rare as Liu Zhe.

At that time, how can we secure the throne of the first queen in the mainland?
Thinking about this, Wu Zetian decided that he must enter the inverted sky.

If you can't find a way to strengthen the blood of the gods, then make yourself a god.

Di Renjie always kept in mind his duty as a city manager, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, this guy is doing evil in Chang'an City, please hand him over to me!"

From Liu Zhe's understanding, there was no doubt that Di Renjie would make his life worse than death.

He was afraid, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, Liu Zhe knew he was wrong, and he is willing to compensate the people ten times for the loss. Please forgive me!"

Wu Zetian actually saw everything that happened outside.

Liu Zhe bullied the weak, especially Datang's weak, damn it.

But he is still needed now, and he cannot die.

Fortunately, this kid took the initiative and offered compensation.

Wu Zetian borrowed the donkey from the slope and said, "If that's the case, forget it."

"His Majesty..."

Di Renjie was about to say something, but was dismissed by Wu Zetian's eyes.

"Di Qing, General Cheng, the management inside and outside of Chang'an City will be left to you two."

Di Renjie asked suspiciously, "Why did Your Majesty say that?"

Wu Zetian lied: "I want to practice in seclusion."

Such things as entering the inverted sky cannot be announced, otherwise the country will be in chaos.

Even so, Di Renjie still found it hard to accept.

It is a big taboo for the ruler of a country to be lazy in politics and instead go to practice in closed doors.

But Wu Zetian is different, a half-step king.

If he really takes the last step, he will be the most powerful existence in the entire continent, and Datang will also firmly occupy the position of the First Empire.

Of course, they are the most powerful except for the protoss who hang upside down. The protoss have not shown up for thousands of years, and people naturally ignore them.

"I understand." Di Renjie said forcefully.

Walking out of the palace, Jiang Ming asked, "Lord Di, who is that sorcerer standing beside Her Majesty the Empress?"

In the palace just now, Jiang Ming didn't say a word, but he was definitely not in a daze.

The sorcerer next to Wu Zetian gave him a very strange feeling, as if he had seen it before, but he just couldn't remember it.

And the warlock looked at him intentionally or unintentionally several times, which made him more firm in this feeling.

"That man, like Liu Zhe, is a descendant of the Western Protoss. He was called into the palace by the empress a few days ago. He seems to be called Ming."

Di Renjie snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with Ming's behavior of bewitching Wu Zetian to retreat.

bright. . .

Jiang Ming searched his mind to make sure there was no such person.

"Could it be that I'm suspicious?" Jiang Ming rubbed his nose with confused eyes.

The next day, Wu Zetian announced a retreat to attack the realm of kings.

Of course, this is just a cover, she is actually secretly studying the method to open the gate of the inverted sky.

Ming, a mysterious warlock, and Liu Zhe, a descendant of the Shadow God, disappeared with Wu Zetian.

The external affairs of Chang'an City were handed over to Cheng Yaojin, and the internal affairs were undoubtedly handled by Di Renjie.

"There are demons lurking inside, and there are wars in neighboring countries outside. The queen chooses to retreat at this time."

In Chang'an Yamen, Di Renjie couldn't help complaining.

Needless to say, the monster lurking is like a bomb buried in the body that will explode at any time, it must be found and removed.

What made Di Renjie even more troublesome was the wars in several neighbors.

Datang is located in the Heluo area, adjacent to the desert in the cloud on the left, and the Dahe River Basin and three-thirds of the land on the right.

Unlike Heluo's stable unity, these two places have always been divided by civil wars.

The forces in the Dahe Basin are divided into two groups, namely Xiang Yu's group and Liu Bang's group, and they are incompatible with each other.

The three-thirds of the forces are three-legged, Cao Cao of the Wei State, Liu Bei of the Shu State, and Sun Ce of the Wu State check and balance each other.

These two areas have finally been quiet for a few years, and the war has begun again.

Although it is a civil war, but the neighbors are fighting, how can there be no reason not to affect it?
Maybe one day the flames of war will reach Datang.

It is really not a good time for Wu Zetian to retreat at this time.

It is impossible to get out of the retreat like this that hits the big realm within a few months.

"The country lacks the emperor's command, and it is also plagued by wars. Maybe when His Majesty finishes his retreat, Tang will change his surname."

Di Renjie said sullenly.

Among the court officials, he and Cheng Yaojin were probably the only ones who dared to speak like that.

Regarding this, Jiang Ming could only smile.

He couldn't understand Wu Zetian's operation.

But it's a little strange why she retreated at this time.

Or another way of thinking, is it because Wu Zetian is going to retreat that so many things happen?
