Chapter 284 Amnesty

Wang Hua was at a loss, as if this was the work of Maoshan Taoist priests, what does it have to do with him?
Wu Zetian said again: "The day before yesterday, you took the blood battalion to the Daming Palace. I slept very soundly that night, and I didn't have any nightmares. Therefore, I would like to borrow you today. We, the monarch and the minister, will share with this group of people." Fighting ghosts, you can see who is the best."

Only then did Wang Hua realize that Lao Wu wanted to use his bloody aura to shock the "spirits" in the palace.But most of the time, there was no such thing. It was Lao Wu who felt guilty, thought about it every day, dreamed at night, and finally had nightmares.It is estimated that the Taoist priests have been invited many times in the palace to practice, but the more they practice, the more Lao Wu misses it, and the result becomes worse.

This requires a psychiatrist, and I am not a psychiatrist. Even if I have this profession, no one believes it now.

Even if it is true, how can I fight?Enter Lao Wu's sleep, and capture the "ghosts" of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu?What the hell!As for Lao Wu's sound sleep that night, it may also be because Lao Wu toasted the soldiers with a few glasses of wine, which was the effect of alcohol.What does it have to do with this killing intent?
But this also proves one point, what Di Renjie said is right, Lao Wu is extremely competitive, he has fought against the sky and people all his life, and now even the so-called "ghosts" refuse to admit defeat.

Wu Zetian continued: "Therefore, I will stay here tonight, and let us monarchs and ministers come to fight with these ghosts."

Speaking of this, her eyebrows were raised, as if her whole body was invigorated.

Dare to say that I became your Wei Zheng, but also your Yuchi Jingde and Qin Qiong.

But knowing Lao Wu's intentions, one is to fight against the ghost in her heart, and the other is to express closeness and support.Her abnormal behavior today is probably because she feels that her health will not be better for a long time, so she started to train herself in advance.

Now that Lao Wu said it, Wang Hua is not hypocritical.This is mainly due to her heart disease. If she dawdled and left a timid impression in her mind, it might not be able to give her confidence.Without confidence, she would not be able to overcome the demons in her heart. She would still have nightmares lying here tonight.

So he straightened his chest and replied: "I obey the order, but I have a request."

"What request, say."

"The minister must put on the blood armor."

"By the way, I have forgotten about this. Come here." With a shout, several eunuchs walked over, and it turned out that there were still people here.Wang Hua thought that apart from the eight of them, there was no one else.

Lao Wu asked the eunuch to go to Wang's painter immediately and bring the blood armor weapons, bows and arrows.He said again: "Don't leave, let's have a dinner here tonight."

After a while, the tables and chairs were brought up, and the food was prepared. The food was silent, and several people did not speak, but they all began to have ghosts.They had underestimated Wang Hua in the past, but soon after each re-acquaintance, they overturned their understanding again.

Wang Hua didn't know the origin of the gatekeeper, but was still thinking about Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde.In fact, guarding the gate of the palace is the task of the soldiers of the Habayashi Army and the three guards who take turns in the palace.But in history, Li Shimin really asked a senior general to make an exception to watch the gate for him. It was not Qin Yuchi and his wife, but a Hu general named Ashinasheer.That is to say, one of the three generals of the early Tang Dynasty, Qibi Heli, Ashinasheer, and Zhishisili, helped the Tang Dynasty to pacify twenty countries including Kucha, and served as the guardians of the two major capitals of Anxi and Beiting in the Tang Dynasty. The Lord who is the main founder.

In order to show his trust, Li Shimin asked him to stand guard at the gate of the bedroom with a knife and a spear, and also asked his men to station troops in the imperial garden.He didn't stand anywhere, and Li Shimin couldn't sleep.If he thought about national hatred and family hatred, it would be useless for Li Shimin to go in for a while, no matter how good his martial arts were, he would be sure.Therefore, Comrade A is grateful and goes through life and death for Li Shimin.After Li Shimin died, he ran to Zhaoling to cut his neck with a knife, and was buried with Li Shimin.It was Li Zhi who persuaded the evil and persuaded him.But after his death, Li Zhizhen let him be buried in Zhaoling.

But then somehow, it evolved into a story of Qin Shubao and Yuchi Jingde.

Wang Hua didn't know this allusion, but he knew all of these.It's Wei Zheng again, and Ashinasheer's again.It can be seen that Wang Hua's position in Wu Zetian's heart can be matched by few ministers in the court.

So several people looked at Wang Hua while eating, thinking about their thoughts.

After eating, the six distinguished people left immediately.Not only were there six of them, but they also had countless think tanks to advise them, so Yu Lushi wanted Wang Hua to do the same.But Wang Hua went in the opposite direction and replaced it with another kind of Kaifu.There is a reason for this. If he really adopted Yu Lushi's idea, maybe the decision-making would be more perfect.But another point was sacrificed, Lao Wu's trust in him, which was more important than Kaifu.

The blood armor was also sent up.

Wu Zetian watched him put on the blood armor and said, "Please come with me."

Not in the Taiji Palace, the overall building of the Taiji Palace includes the outer part of the imperial city in the south, the Taiji Hall in the north, which is now the main hall of Wanghua, and the Liangyi Hall, Ganlu Hall, Shenlong Hall, Wanchun Hall, Lizheng Hall, and Anren Hall. Hall, Qianqiu Hall, Baifu Hall and so on.

It turns out that the early Tang Dynasty, the Grand Ceremony and the Empress Dowager's bedroom were all in the Tai Chi Palace.To the east of Taiji Palace is the Prince's East Palace, and to the west is Yeting Palace, where the maids live.To the south of Yeting Palace is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is where the eunuchs live.

The veteran general Wang Hua brought her to a palace in Yeting Palace, and she said, "This is where I lived as a palace maid when I first entered the palace."

Wang Hua took a look, how does this look like a place where ordinary maids live?In the spacious hall, exquisite brocade curtains are hung everywhere, and various exquisite utensils are placed.But this is easy to understand. The place where the great man lived is different.Even if Lao Wu would not come here now, there were also eunuchs in the palace who cleaned up this hall to show a difference.

Wu Zetian looked at the smallpox, and suddenly laughed loudly: "It's ridiculous these people, I was just a little maid here at the beginning, and I stayed here for twelve years. This is how I climbed out step by step."

Does this count as speaking to Wang Xiao's ghost?
But old martial arts aside, her history of success is a history of struggle, unlike Wang and Xiao, Concubine Xiao Shu also came from a big family, only slightly smaller than Wang's family.She conquered Tang Gaozong not only with her beauty, but also with her talent.In addition to their background, their talents and methods are far inferior to Wang and Xiao.

It was not easy for Wang Hua to intervene, he held on to the big hammer, and stood outside the hall in an orderly manner with Xue Rengui's big iron arm bow on his back.After Lao Wu finished speaking, he began to approve the memorial.However, most of the time, due to poor eyesight and candlelight, the eunuch read the memorial at the side, and only after she listened did she start to write with a pen.

Looking at her back, her snow-white hair, and her slightly bent waist, Wang Hua once again sighed in her heart that Lao Wu is really old.

After a while Wu Zetian beckoned and let him in.

Wang Hua went in, and Wu Zetian handed him a booklet. Wang Hua opened it and saw that it was Tubo who offered a thousand horses and 2000 taels of gold to propose marriage.Wu Zetian said, "Wang Xiaoer, what do you think?"

Wang Hua clasped his hands and replied: "Making marriage may also be a strategy. In a barren land, victory is not military, and the people cannot be moved there. If they are not victorious, they will become border troubles. Therefore, a large army will win them, so that they will not violate the border, and then caress them Only in this way can grace and power be used together. Otherwise, the tyrannical use of troops will easily lead to the disaster of Emperor Sui Yang's march into Korea and aggravate the suffering of the people's military service. But the frontier army is invincible, and it is a marriage.

This is also a very objective view. There is no long-term solution on the border now, that is, to defeat all of Tubo, and the people will move to the interior. However, other tribes will soon enter the vacant places.Decades later, new frontier troubles started again.If you want peace on the border, the only solution is to subdue him first, and then use peace to appease him.

Including Zhaojun's departure from customs and Princess Wencheng's marriage are relatively positive actions, not sacrificing an innocent woman as outsiders imagined.At least it is much better than sacrificing thousands of soldiers and civilians.

Wang Hua continued: "As for whether you can agree or not, I am not in the court, and I don't know the details of the government, so I can't make specific suggestions."

"Very good," Wu Zetian said with a smile, waved his hand, "Go down."

I don't know whether it's true or not, so Wang Hua will be honest.

In a blink of an eye, the second watch came, and Lao Wu began to go to bed.

The place has been vacated long ago, in the side room of the palace.Wang Hua didn't dare to be negligent, and he never did such a thing, as if it was not recorded in "Zhou Li".So he carried a big hammer, entered the hall from outside the palace gate, and stood outside the dormitory, guarding Lao Wu.In fact, Wang Hua really had a headache. Although he was guarding in name, but because Lao Wu came, countless soldiers had already appeared outside. Wang Hua's eyes were sharp, and he could see faint armored figures flashing from inside the flowers to behind the trees. There are many guards patrolling.

Is he just putting on a show, or is he actually guarding ghosts?How to keep it?Can you see it?

I probably saw that Wang Hua's actions were not in accordance with the etiquette system, especially Wang Hua's blood armor and a pair of murder weapons in his hands. The eunuch serving Wu Zetian wanted to stop him, but Wu Zetian stopped him with a wave of his hand.

Wang Hua just stared at the ceiling with big eyes and small eyes, and stood there all night.He was still thinking wildly, what if Lao Wu continued to have nightmares?Should I break in by myself?But Lao Wu was very quiet that night.About a good sign.

It was dawn the next day, and Wang Hua remembered that it was time to go to court, and he reminded an eunuch in a low voice.

The eunuch hissed, and said: "General Wang Ying, don't wake up your majesty, it's very rare for your majesty to get such a good night's sleep."

This is true, is it easy to manage a country?Think about Yongzheng is exhausted.After all, Lao Wu and Yongzheng are similar people, not easy to trust others, and there is also Yang Jian, so being an emperor is very hard.

Lao Wu was sleeping, and Wang Hua was standing guard.The ministers outside bombed the camp, what happened to the emperor today, he moved the place of the early dynasty from the Xuanzheng Hall of the Daming Palace to the Taiji Hall of the Taiji Palace.Move it, move it, why has Lao Wu not appeared yet?
So I asked Shangguan Wan'er.

Shangguan Wan'er replied, saying that Wu Zetian slept in Yeting Palace.

The minister was even more surprised, Wu Zetian hadn't been to the Taiji Palace for many years, and even if she did, she would just go through a scene, not to mention sleeping in the Taiji Palace, let alone the Yeting Palace.Is this the play that was sung?Some ministers thought wrongly, and they were a little uneasy.

This is not the way, Song Jing from Fengge She said: "Shangguan Zhihao, you should invite the Holy One."

Shangguan Xiaowan looked at the sky, it was getting late.She didn't know the specifics, she only knew that Wang Hua was called into the palace last night and did not leave the palace overnight.She was still thinking about it, could it be that this Wang Xiaoer is so brave that the emperor can't get out of bed?
Thinking of this, she also recalled Wang Hua's brave appearance in blood armor, returning to Beijing after meritorious deeds, her heart was swayed, and her face was full of rosy clouds.

Seeing her expression, Song Jing felt strange, this Shangguan Xiaowan, what kind of flirt was she so early in the morning?Could it be that he is also having an affair with that Wang Xiaoer just like Li Bao'er?
But thinking about it, Shangguan Xiaowan followed Song Jing's order and went to Yeting Palace.

When she came to the place where Wu Zetian slept, she saw it, but she was also stunned. Wang Hua was fully armed, and she asked curiously, "General Wang Ying, what are you doing?"

Seeing that it was Shangguan Wan'er, Wang Hua replied, "I'm in Suzhi by orders from the Holy One."

Stay straight?It turned out that I wanted to help myself too.Shangguan Xiaowan was a clever person, she was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't think of the reason.She said, "Then the Holy Majesty is resting inside?"

"Exactly, it was the servants who didn't let me disturb the Holy Majesty, saying that it is rare for the Holy Majesty to sleep so soundly."

Don't bother, you have to disturb. Could it be that Wu Zetian slept until the afternoon and all the ministers waited until the afternoon?She waved to the eunuch.But she didn't express her intentions yet, her conversation with Wang Hua alarmed Wu Zetian.Seeing the sky, he quickly ordered the eunuch to come and serve him.

After washing and dressing up, Lao Wu came out with a happy face, saw Wang Hua and said, "Wang Zhongying, guess what I dreamed about last night?"

"I don't know."

"Last night, I dreamed that Bog (Empress Wang) and Xiao Ershi entrusted me with a dream. They saw you standing outside the dormitory and dared not come in, so they begged me for mercy and hoped that I would let them go." Wu Zetian beamed with joy at this point. Finally, with the cooperation of Wang Hua, this "Battle of Humans and Ghosts" finally won a great victory.This Wang Xiaoer is really his beloved general and blessed general.

Wang Hua was speechless.This is purely psychological self-comfort, but I dare not say it.

Wu Zetian said again: "Just in time, I have an important announcement to make today."

Speaking of her walking in front, Wang Hua carried a big hammer, what should I do, and walked behind Lao Wu with Shangguan Xiaowan.After entering the Tai Chi Hall, I saw these three people, especially Wang Hua, and the ministers all opened their mouths wide. What's going on?

Wu Zetian said: "My dear friends, if you have something to do, play it early."

Some ministers entered the memorial. After Wu Zetian finished processing, she stood up and said: "Today, I announced something. The second family of Mang Xiao will restore the surname, and the relatives concerned will pardon their origin."

It turned out to be this thing.However, Wang Hua's eyes became a little hazy. Lao Wu was very heroic in his early years. Although he committed many murders, some policies had positive significance.But in her later years, she began to make peace. First she pardoned Jianghuai Xu Jing's amateur party, then overturned all the judgments of Lai Junchen and Zhou Xing, and then issued an edict to pardon Wang Xiao and Chu Suiliang's crimes before she died. enemy.In fact, it was equivalent to overthrowing all her own actions and returning the direction to the original track again.

It was also because of her soft-heartedness that Lao Zhang dared to raise troops to remonstrate.Lao Zhang is right or wrong, because of his actions, Lao Wu was put under house arrest in Shangyang Palace, and died in depression within a year.

Although because of himself, Empress Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu restored their surnames in advance, and their relatives were forgiven in advance, but amidst the compliments from the ministers, he vaguely saw a huge figure slowly falling down.The most important thing is that with her return, politics has also become fatuous. In the past two years, governing the country has been worse than a year.

At this time, the sun was almost rising in the air, and a piece of sunlight entered the hall and also shone on her face.Listening to the minister's hymn, Wu Zetian had a peaceful smile on his face, just like a kind-hearted old woman next door.

Wang Hua was once again at a loss. Does a successful emperor have to be decisive?Han Zu Han Wu, Tang Taizong Song Taizong, Ming Hongwu, and Kangxi are all emperors with blood on their hands.There is only one alternative, Song Renzong, who is a good emperor, but not a successful emperor, at least not in martial arts.

Wu Zetian turned around and said to Wang Hua: "You stayed overnight last night, go back and rest."

Stay straight?So far, not many people know the inside story.Most ministers are weird.But he didn't think about that either. After all, Wang Hua's armor was neat. Because of the blood armor, even his clothes were stained with blood, and he wasn't dressed for that.

It can be vaguely felt that Wu Zetian's benevolent edict today has something to do with Wang Hua.Some ministers gave Wang Hua a thankful glance.

Wang Hua pretended not to see it.

Perhaps seeing Lao Wu slowly becoming a sheep, many people began to sharpen their swords.

Wang Hua returned home and fell asleep with his head covered.I didn't get up until evening, but I saw Xiao Yuzhen sitting in the living room.He walked over and asked, "Master, why are you here?"

Xiao Yuzhen asked with worry on her face, "You were in the palace all night last night?"

"That's right, but things are not what you think. I stayed overnight and guarded the palace for the Holy One." Wang Hua laughed.

"I know this, and I didn't mean it that way. I came here because my father asked me to ask you a word."

"What did you say?" He was very disgusted with Li Dan and Wang Hua now.This reminded him of a person, Yue Buqun.At first, he wanted to marry Yue Lingshan to Linghu Chong, but later he valued the sword technique passed down by Lin Ping's family, so he changed his mind.Seeing that his status is different now, he used "The Prodigal Son Turns Back", "The Pine Welcomes Guests", "Nongyu Blows Xiao", "Xiao Shi Rides the Dragon" as if in the battle of encircling the temple.very funny.

I just feel sorry for the little girl in front of me.

Seeing her affectionate look, even Wang Hua felt that she was committing a crime.

He asked: "What words?"

"Father, he said, father, he said," Xiaoyu really hesitated and couldn't speak.

Wang Hua laughed happily, and asked, "Tell me, it's okay."

"Father said, he wants to ask you, since I have been betrothed to you, I also have a deep affection for you. Based on my status, appearance and affection, what is not worthy of you?" At this point, the little girl blushed and had a thick neck. Head bowed deeply, like a camel bird.Then he whispered again: "But why did you hang out with Princess An Le outside the city yesterday?"

PS: In order to write this book, I bought a lot of information books, including more than 30 handicrafts, more than 20 related history books, and nearly 17 books on archaeology, geography and climate.It costs three thousand oceans before and after.It should be said that the textual research is very rigorous.But because a lot of knowledge is involved, and there is a rush of speed, some mistakes continue to appear, such as the drying of lacquerware, the method of counting ancient chess pieces, the title of champion, and a few typos or wrong words that have not been corrected in time .Please forgive me.But if I don’t understand, I won’t pretend to understand. For example, the word after Wangjun I told you a few days ago has a large negative ratio. In fact, it reads Chuo. It also has two variant characters, Daotoukoubi, Daotoukoubigou, A big blue beast with the head of a rabbit and the feet of a deer.The latter two characters are found in "Ci Hai", but the original characters Ci Hai, Ci Yuan, Chinese Dictionary, and Kangxi Dictionary are not found. I found it after checking the Ancient Chinese Dictionary. This is a mistake.Haha, there are typos too.But I still can't type out any of these three words, so I laugh again.In the future, Chuo will be used instead, Huan is a mispronunciation.It's just that this word cost me another [-] yuan.
