Another official!

For a time, the military officials of the imperial court were panicked, and everyone was in danger.

At the same time, the enthronement ceremony was imminent. In order to solve this matter as soon as possible, Empress Wu sent someone to release Di Renjie from prison as in the plot.

But the person who took Di Renjie to go through the formalities was not a woman, but a burly middle-aged man.

As for why not Shangguan Jinger.

A few years after Qin Xuan's wedding, Shangguan Jing'er, who just turned sixteen years old, became more and more energetic and looked forward to being with Qin Xuan.

The Shangguan family hurriedly asked Qin Xuan to come to the house to offer a dowry and propose marriage, so under the wishes of both parties, Qin Xuan married this girl who was a big girl, but who loved him very much.

Therefore, since Shangguan Jinger was a member of the Qin family, it was naturally impossible for him to become a pawn used by the Empress Wu.

Moreover, Qin Xuan is a bit domineering and a bit masculine, and will not allow the people around him to be used by others.

Whoever dares to stretch out his hand, he dares to chop whoever!

In the face of Qin Xuan's short-tempered temper, someone has already demonstrated it, so over the years, no one has dared to harass his duty unless necessary.

Two years after getting married, Shangguan Jing'er's eccentric personality seems to have changed a lot when she was a child.

Although she stayed at home all day, her personality has also changed from being naughty and lively to being knowledgeable and dignified, but this is just a superficial phenomenon. At least in Qin Xuan's eyes, she has not changed.

The same headache, the same pity.

Closer to home.

The middle-aged man took Di Renjie to the Qingsi Hall and then withdrew, while Wu Zetian was processing the memorial.

While Di Renjie was waiting in a daze, it took a long time for her to finish reviewing the last memorial.

"Cough cough..." She straightened herself and took a sip of tea.

This move, whether in looks or actions, reveals the solemnity and authority of the king all the time.

Over the years, she has become more and more domineering!

After a while, she looked up and saw Di Renjie wearing a prisoner's uniform, her eyes flashed a trace of unbearable.

So he said, "You know you want to come to see me, but you are wearing a prison uniform and don't even shave your beard. Are you complaining to me about the pain I have held you in prison for the past few years?"

Listening to Tianhou's inquiry, Di Renjie did not answer her directly.

"The sinner was convicted of rebellion against your ruling the government back then, so he was imprisoned for several years."

Instead, he looked at the endless vastness in the distance, and said with emotion: "Now that you are about to ascend the throne, I expect that this prison uniform will be worn soon, so it is better not to change it."

"When the prince was young, what's wrong with me acting as an empress? You want to go against it."

"Now that I have been in power for nearly eight years, the government is clear, the people's livelihood is prosperous, and I am recruiting wise men from all over the world. I only ask about talents, not background. Even Prince Li Xian has written to me asking me to be enthroned. What else do you have to say?"

Wu Zetian stood up, then paused, his face changed slightly, and said, "Perhaps you men just don't want to see women in power, but the great cause of socialism cannot be conservative, and must be constantly innovated!"

"Innovation is a good thing, but no matter how new it is, it will become old one day."

Looking at the increasingly old Tianhou, Di Renjie suddenly sighed and said, "It's okay to replace the 'old' with the 'new', but if you can't even save your life, you will inevitably rebel. The Tianhou should understand this...  .."

"Ha ha……"

Wu Zetian naturally knew what he was referring to, he paused for a moment, then smiled instead: "Di Qing is still Di Qing, these eight years in prison have not changed you, and your words are still as unpleasant as ever!"

Di Renjie cupped his hands and said, "But the queen is no longer the queen of the past."

"Oh?"

When Wu Zetian heard the words, some inspiration flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Then tell me, let's see, what changes have I made?"

After Tang Gaozong's death, his third son Li Xian succeeded him, but Wu Zetian was dissatisfied with Li Xian, and the next year his fourth son Li Dan was appointed emperor, and he took over the power alone.

Her behavior immediately aroused strong opposition from the princes and nobles, and the country was turbulent for a while.

However, she was sent troops to attack, successively quelled the rebellion, and cleared obstacles for her future ascension to the throne.

"I don't talk about the far, only the near, just what I said just now. If it was seven years ago, the Queen of Heaven would have ordered me to be sentenced to prison for rebellion."

Listening to Di Renjie's blunt words, Wu Zetian's eyes did not see a trace of fluctuation, and he chuckled lightly: "Are you saying that I am kind-hearted or soft-handed?"

"neither."

"what is that?"

"Excuse me, I can't say."

"why?"

"Because I still don't want to, and I'm not used to saying things that are too sweet to the queen, I'm afraid I'll go in again."

Wu Zetian's thoughts turned, and he immediately understood, smiled and said, "This may have been the most pleasing thing you said to me."

Di Renjie didn't answer, there was always a faint smile on his face.

The sweetest word?

Ha ha.

Whether this remark is praise or derogation, no one knows the meaning of 0.0 better than him.
