Chapter 97 Wu Zetian: I knew you would be in love

"Yu Qing, I didn't expect that you would find the right husband, but you still don't forget to come and see me. How rare!"

As soon as Wu Zetian finished speaking, Shangguan Yuqing said quietly: "I didn't dare to disturb the Queen Mother at first. I just learned that he was going to fight and was afraid that he would do something bad, so I came here."

"You're not really here to persuade me to retract my words and not let him go on an expedition, are you?" Wu Zetian frowned slightly.

"Not going on an expedition? That's not true." Shangguan Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, "I naturally hope that he will become a mighty general, but..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that he is just a censor, and there will inevitably be bad things on the battlefield!"

"Anyway?" Wu Zetian laughed unconsciously, "With his ability, how could he do it?"

Shangguan Yuqing thought that Wu Zetian was saying that Yang Yanzhang was smart, but didn't think much about it. Seeing that Wu Zetian was not worried about Yang Yanzhang's life and death, he thought of another excuse: "Queen Mother, I heard that war intelligence is the most important, and to pass on intelligence, now it is natural The carrier pigeon is the fastest! But when it comes to carrier pigeons, in this world, apart from him, only the slave’s sister knows this best! If he allows his sister to follow him, he will definitely be able to send the information to the front line as quickly as possible for the Queen Mother! "

"What do you mean, you want your sister Wan'er to go on an expedition with Yang Yanzhang?"

"That's right! As the Queen Mother sees, my husband is extremely intelligent. If he makes any mistake, it will undoubtedly be a great loss to the Tang Dynasty and the Queen Mother! So the Queen Mother must allow my sister to go with him on the expedition!"

Wu Zetian's expression became strange.

She is someone who has experienced this, and knows that in this situation, her brother-in-law and sister-in-law will most likely go off.

She wanted to remind Shangguan Yuqing, but suddenly she remembered her promise to Yang Yanzhang.

If Yang Yanzhang comes back from Minzhou, then she will have to send Shangguan Wan'er out of the palace, and the matter of the carrier pigeon will have to be replaced from now on.

But to be honest, Wu Zetian still hopes to use Shangguan Wan'er. Firstly, Shangguan Wan'er is smart enough, and secondly, she is loyal enough.

If I grant Shangguan Waner and Yang Yanzhang the opportunity to be alone, will Shangguan Waner take the initiative to stay out of gratitude?
Thinking of this, Wu Zetian said calmly: "You go back first, wait until I see your sister, and ask her what she thinks before making a decision."

Shangguan Yuqing didn't understand why Wu Zetian, who had always been strong, suddenly thought of asking her sister for her opinion. This had never happened in the past!
But even though she didn't understand, she didn't hesitate. She thought about talking to her sister about it when Shangguan Wan'er came back.

Sister, please protect your brother-in-law, there's nothing wrong with that!

"Is she embarrassed to refuse?"

"Besides, my sister seems to have a pretty good relationship with him."

……

Shangguan Wan'er was originally on her way back, but she arrived in the divine capital in just two days.

After entering the palace, Wu Zetian couldn't wait to ask about the arrangement of the carrier pigeons.

"If nothing happens, the news will come back unimpeded! We have selected several carrier pigeons in each place. As long as there is news ahead, we can release several carrier pigeons at once, so now flying pigeons can be trusted to deliver messages! "Wu Zetian was overjoyed. She had been preparing to ascend the throne, but she was afraid that someone would cause trouble somewhere, but she would not know immediately.

Now that she has the magical object of homing pigeons, once her informants everywhere hear any disturbance, she can immediately make preparations in advance, which can make her invincible.

"Wan'er, thank you for your hard work!"

Seeing Shangguan Wan'er's tired appearance, Wu Zetian actually felt a little distressed.

"By the way, your sister came into the palace two days ago and asked me for a favor."

"Ah?" Shangguan Wan'er suddenly became worried. With her status with Wu Zetian and with Yang Yanzhang's current influence, it would be a big deal to be able to force her sister into the palace to beg the Queen Mother!
"Don't worry, it's not a big deal." Seeing her panic, Wu Zetian quickly comforted her, "That's right, didn't you Fei Ge send a message saying that Tibet was gathering troops near Minzhou? I ordered Yang Yanzhang to do it. As a supervisor of the army, let him go out with the army. As a result, your sister is extremely worried. "

Shangguan Wan'er was stunned: "Isn't he a censor? Why did he suddenly get an additional military position? Queen Mother, is this appropriate?"

"Of course this is appropriate! Regarding the attack on Tubo, he is very knowledgeable, much better than Wei Baiji! Moreover, he also made the cannon, so it is most appropriate for him to direct the actual battle!"

Shangguan Wan'er was surprised again. She had never expected that Yang Yanzhang, a person who had just joined the officialdom, would be even more powerful than Wei Baidi in Wu Zetian's eyes!
"Since the Queen Mother said so, why would my little sister be careful?"

"She said that Yang Yanzhang is just a civil servant and has no means of self-protection. Therefore, she wants you to go with Yang Yanzhang. If something happens to him, you can protect him."

Shangguan Wan'er's expression became strange: "If we go together, we don't know who will protect whom! His martial arts skills are much better than mine! This silly sister, I will talk about her properly when I go back!"

Wu Zetian waved his hand, glanced at Shangguan Wan'er, and then smiled and said: "Wan'er, your appearance and figure are top-notch. It is a waste to follow me all day long."

"Why did the Queen Mother suddenly say this?" Shangguan Wan'er became a little shy.

"Wan'er, what do you think of Yang Yanzhang?"

"He? Of course he is a very good person. He has a handsome appearance, outstanding talents, and is very courageous. He also treats his little sister very well. By the way, the Queen Mother probably doesn't know that he often personally treats her at home. Cook delicious food... If you’re not the Queen Mother, what do you mean by asking this question?”

After Shangguan Wan'er came back to her senses, she vaguely felt something in her heart, and her face suddenly turned red.

Wu Zetian's smile became even stronger: "I know that your little hooves has already been full of love, and you have been coveting your brother-in-law for a while, right?"

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but exclaim softly, shaking her head repeatedly: "Nothing! How could I be attracted to my brother-in-law? Impossible, really not!"

"Okay, what's there to be embarrassed about in front of me? There are no taboos in Datang. If you like it, just fight for it! Keep your thoughts in your stomach, isn't this a hardship on yourself?"

Shangguan Wan'er said to her heart, "Didn't you warn me earlier that I couldn't compete with you for Yang Yanzhang?"Now let’s talk about this again…

Wu Zetian continued: "Actually, I think what your sister said is not unreasonable. Yang Yanzhang is very skilled, but as the saying goes, it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. A hero cannot withstand a large number of people! The Tubo soldiers have a tough character, maybe he will He will also be in danger. With you by his side, he will indeed be much safer! You also know that Yang Yanzhang has outstanding talents. Just what we saw is enough for me! If he makes any mistakes, it will be really Datang’s loss is even more of a loss for me!”
