[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 24 Queen 06

"Wu Chengsi?" Li Xian was taken aback when he heard the name given to Mr. Wu Lang.

"Is this what elder brother (referring to Wu Minzhi) means?"

Hearing this, Wu Xu paused for a while while drinking tea, then nodded and said, "Your elder brother will return to Chang'an soon."

As soon as Xiao Dalang was born, Wu Xu ordered someone to send a letter to Wu Minzhi who was training in the southern capital. As a result, Wu Dalang said that his official duties were more important and his personal affairs were put aside.

When Wu Xu received Wu Minzhi's reply, he felt quite speechless, but thinking about the situation in Zhou Guogong's mansion here in Chang'an, Wu Xu also felt that Wu Minzhi's behavior was completely understandable.

It's not that Wu Dalang doesn't love his child, it's all because of a series of troubles caused by this child, which wiped out Wu Min's joy of being a father for the first time...

Wu Xu couldn't help but sighed.

Her family Wu Dalang is only in his 20s this year, but it is really not easy to bear such a huge pressure!

Li Xian looked at his mother's face from the side, and probably guessed what she was worrying about, so he said, "You don't have to worry, mother, after all, the Yang family is not confinement, and neither are the cousins ​​of the Wu family. It's good to come, as for the Helan family..."

Speaking of this, the young man couldn't help but sneer: "Brother and He Lan's family have long since broken up, so there is no friendship left!"

Seeing that Erlang, his family, Wu Xu could see clearly, she couldn't help but let go of all her worries, too lazy to speculate whether Yang would collude with Wu or Helan or something, and mentioned Xiao Dalang's name again. .

"It's nice to be called Chengsi, and it's better than the ones your father chose..." When it came to choosing a name, Wu Xu couldn't help laughing at Li Xiaojiu's taste again.

Back then, Dalang was given a 'Taishang Laojun', and Sanniang was given a 'Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva', and Xiao Shiro was the most miserable, called 'Daner'...

Finally, Wu Minzhi had a son, and Li Xiaojiu was very interested in giving Xiao Dalang a name.

What kind of "A Bao" and "Jin Lang" and so on, Wu Xu was too embarrassed to send it to Wu Minzhi - with that kid's temperament, even if His Majesty Li Xiaojiu gave his son a name like "Wu Xiaozhu", He would probably thank the emperor for his kindness and call his son a little pig!

Therefore, Wu Xu simply asked Wu Minzhi to name his son himself. As for Li Xiaojiu...

Cough!

Your Majesty the Emperor, you'd better take a good rest, let my sister do this kind of thought-consuming thing!

Wu Minzhi lived up to Wu Xu's expectations. After receiving her secret letter, he took his son's name and sent the letter back to Chang'an. I returned to Beijing to report on my work.

Wu Minzhi's letter was in the nature of a letter from home, so when he mentioned the matter of returning to Beijing, he meant to ask Wu Xu for his opinion.

"It's good for the elder brother to come back..." Li Xian thought that because of the matter of Shangguanyi, he had also taken advantage of the situation to clean up a lot of people in the East Palace. Come help him.

His cousin Wu is a good candidate, and...

Li Xian's thoughts could not help turning to his elder brother who stayed in Luoyang to take care of his father...

Brother always said that he doesn't like to get close to Cousin Wu, so this time he should 'get close' to Cousin Wu!

Wu Xu actually felt the same way as her family's Da Lang, always feeling that her family's Er Lang didn't like Wu Minzhi very much.

It's rare that Li Xian paid a lot of attention to Wu Minzhi's affairs in his words today, and Wu Xu couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Da Lang can help you a lot when he comes back to Chang'an..." Wu Xu couldn't help but sighed again, "I'm always worried about your father's place, and you have to take care of things here... ...Minzhi came back just in time..."

Wu Xu planned to go back to Luoyang when one of Wu Min arrived in Chang'an.

Li Xiaojiu was recuperating in Luoyang alone, even with Dalang and Sanniang serving at her knees, Wu Xu still felt very uneasy.

Before that, there was no other way. Erlang's newly ascended reserve position could not restrain all the demons and monsters in the court at all. That's why Shangguanyi took the lead in advising and abolishing the bad thing happened.

Therefore, Wu Xu had no choice but to rush back to Chang'an immediately, and quickly pulled down all the people who were jumping up and down in the hall, and cheated the aristocratic family again.

Almost all the officials who will be selected to join the court are the talents that she and Li Xiaojiu have reserved several years ago, but judging from the current situation, this kind of grace must be given by Erlang...

The prince must stand up as soon as possible.

This is the most urgent wish of her and Li Xiaojiu at present.

And Wu Minzhi, as the successor of the Wu family, is Erlang's most natural ally. Wu Xu always hoped that the two cousins ​​could be more harmonious.

Now it seems that she and Li Xiaojiu were too worried before, but Erlang's overall view is quite good!

When Wu Minzhi returned to Chang'an, it was just in time for his family's Xiao Dalang to be full moon.

The family letter he sent back to Tianhou's wife gave Xiao Dalang the title of "Cheng Si"

This name not only expresses his personal determination not to mix with the Wu family and the Helan family, but also implicitly expresses the importance he attaches to this child.

In the past two years, Wu Minzhi has put his mind on his career. He is a cold-hearted person, and the wife he married was not his own initiative, so he is even less interested in his backyard.

At any rate, Wu Xu watched Wu Minzhi grow up, so he could somewhat guess what he was thinking: After having Xiao Dalang, that Yang family would probably never have a chance to give birth to Wu Minzhi's child again...

In the past, it was better when Mama Wu was around, but now...

Ugh!

Sure enough, as Wu Xu expected, after Wu Minzhi returned to Chang'an, he didn't even return to Duke Zhou's mansion, and went directly to Daming Palace.

Xiao Wulang-kun's full moon banquet was also held in the palace.

Wu Xu also wanted to take advantage of this happy event to adjust the atmosphere.

After all, some time ago, she killed many people at once, and the atmosphere in Chang'an was quite tense.

After finally getting such an opportunity to ease the atmosphere, Chang'an is very happy to get close to the subjects of Tianhou.

Therefore, Wu Xu simply took the opportunity of holding a full moon banquet for Mr. Xiao Wulang, and invited all the ministers she was optimistic about.

In addition to those newcomers who are about to make their mark in the court, Wu Xu has not forgotten the veterans that she and His Majesty Li Xiaojiu rely on.

Li Ji, Xu Jingzong, Wei Shuyu, Changsun Quan and others were also invited.

Although Li Ji and Xu Jingzong have retired from office now, no one in the entire Tang Dynasty dares to underestimate them.

Needless to say the former, many key generals in the army were brought out by the old man, and the old man's words still have a certain influence in the army.

However, Li Ji is a cautious person, since he retired, he also retreated very cleanly, without sloppy at all.These years, he had no contact with anyone in the army at all, and even the visits of big border officials like Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui, Wu Xu couldn't help but admire him.

Li Xiaojiu always remembered Li Ji's support for him for so many years, and he never forgot to give the British government a copy of every good thing he got.

Mr. Li Ji can be regarded as a rare person who started well and ended well since his ancestors. The only shortcoming is probably that his only son died early, leaving only a young grandson dedicated to his career. I don't know if he can inherit his career!

It's just that the children and grandchildren have their own blessings. On weekdays, Mr. Li Ji only taught his grandson not to get involved in the affairs of the royal family, but he didn't hold his own grandson too much.

Fortunately, Li Jingye has completely inherited his grandfather's fine character, and he never shows off in the Chongwen Museum on weekdays, and he has casual acquaintances with several princes, so he is extremely low-key.

If His Majesty Li Xiaojiu hadn't asked Wu Xu to give grace to the descendants of Mr. Li Ji, Wu Xu would not have known that the population of the British government is so simple!

Wu Xu specially summoned Li Jingye for a meeting, seeing that this son was upright and obedient, he was granted the position of a servant of the Eastern Palace on the spot, and left it to Li Xian to train him.

As for Xu Jingzong, this guy is an old fox who has gone through three dynasties. He also has many sons and daughters. He has many in-laws in the court. Before retiring, he found an excellent incision for Wu Xu to clean up those "vegetarian meals for corpses" in the court. Naturally, Wu Xu would not treat him badly, not only allowing him to continue to enjoy the benefits of the right minister, but also granting him the title of duke of the county, and selecting his eldest son Xu Ang as a servant of the East Palace to continue his studies.

This time, on the day when Daming Palace held a full moon banquet for Mr. Wu Lang, Mr. Li Ji and Xu Jingzong each brought their grandsons/sons into the palace to thank them.

In fact, Wu Xu hadn't seen Mr. Li Ji for a long time, and it was rare to see him enter the palace, so she was very happy.

Mr. Li Ji is now seventy years old, his beard and hair are all white, but his complexion is still very ruddy, there are not many wrinkles, his eyes are not dazzled and his ears are not deaf, he looks a bit of a fairy.

After Wu Xu bestowed seats on the two old men, he asked Li Xian to take Li Jingye and Xu Ang to exchange feelings.

"Let them young gentlemen go and play by themselves~~~~~~"

"Da Lang is stupid, if there are any omissions, I hope the Empress Dowager and the Crown Prince will forgive me!" Li Ji hurriedly got up to avoid the table and said, with a look of sincerity and fear on his face.

"Old Te speaks seriously~~~~" Wu Xu smiled and waved her hands, telling Li Ji to sit down quickly.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the side showed a rare smile, and said: "Gu and Da Lang are old acquaintances, he has always been cautious...Don't worry about Lao Tejin." After finishing speaking, Li Xian bowed to Wu Xu again, and said: "A Niang , take them to look at the new books just sent by the bookstore..."

Wu Xu knew that it was fake that his family Erlang took people to read the book, and it was true to take the opportunity to subdue them, so there was no one who would not agree, and immediately gave A Wei a wink, and the latter understood, and hurriedly withdrew to let people go to the Jinluan Hall to clean up.

"Go, remember to come back later and give your elder brother a lamp..." Wu Xu instructed Li Xiandao.

"I would like to obey." Li Xian hurriedly agreed, and then bowed and left.

Li Jingye and Xu Ang also followed Li Xian to bow and leave. There were already palace servants leading the way outside and took the three of them to the direction of the Golden Luan Hall.

After the three of Li Xian had gone out, Wu Xu also pushed back all the palace servants in the palace, as if they wanted to have a secret conversation.

Seeing this, Li Ji kept his face calm, but he couldn't help but raise his old heart...

He suddenly remembered the big money cleansing that caused a lot of noise some time ago.

In the final analysis, it was indeed because Shang Guanyi, the servant of Xitai, drafted a shocking draft edict for the emperor. It was the content of that edict, which made all the aristocratic families who had been waiting for an opportunity to be brought down couldn't sit still, and they all jumped out to stop it...

However, this edict seems to be just a trap set by the Ersheng.

Then, the two saints trapped their prey...

The author has something to say: The heroes of Li Erfeng's era seem to be dying here =.=
