Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 99: Am I beautiful?

At first hearing Shangguan Yuqing's words, Yang Yanzhang thought he was dreaming.

"Yuqing, are you kidding?"

"How can I not? I am serious. Moreover, this is also the Queen Mother's will, and my sister has agreed."

Only then did Yang Yanzhang remember that Shangguan Yuqing had told him before that he wanted to go to the palace to seek help from Wu Zetian.

I thought she was just talking, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be true!

"The Queen Mother actually agreed?"

Yang Yanzhang was even more stunned.

Wu Zetian wanted to attack him several times. With her domineering personality, she had to burn incense and pray to Buddha to get Shangguan Yuqing to marry her. She also wanted Shangguan Wan'er to follow her. Even if she was just a bodyguard, it was almost a dream. things.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er also walked in. Seeing Yang Yanzhang's expression of disbelief, she snorted softly: "What, you don't want to? Don't be unwilling. It's not the Queen Mother's decree that my sister begged me. I don't want to follow you." You go together."

"Ah? No, no, how can I be unwilling? It's just a bit unexpected."

As Yang Yanzhang spoke, he took a deep look at Shangguan Wan'er. Shangguan Wan'er smiled, but immediately looked away, pretending to be nonchalant, but in fact her heartbeat was pounding.

The matter was settled like that. In order to cherish the few days together, the two sisters may have other small thoughts. In short, Shangguan Wan'er stayed at her sister's house when she came back. On the surface, it was either about sisterly love or chatting with Yang Yanzhang. Thinking about the upcoming expedition, they secretly paid attention to each other from time to time, silently enjoying a different kind of excitement.

On the day of the expedition, Wu Zetian personally sent Wang Xiaojie, Yang Yanzhang, and Shangguan Wan'er outside the city.

Before leaving, he called Yang Yanzhang aside alone and chatted quietly.

"Yang Yanzhang, you should know that this battle is very important to me."

Yang Yanzhang suddenly looked solemn, knowing that Wu Zetian would ascend the throne after this battle.

In fact, by this time, Wu Zetian had already achieved success, and her ascension to the throne was a matter of course.

Putting aside the firecrackers, cannons, and flying pigeons sent by Yang Yanzhang, Wu Zetian has killed very few of the opposition over the years.

From a small group of minions, to a gentry group, to Xu Jingye, he killed many Li clan kings. At this point, no one could stop Wu Zetian from ascending to the throne.

Even if this battle is lost, it will only mean that Wu Zetian's ascension to the throne is unpopular. Some people will take advantage of this defeat to cause chaos again, which will only involve more innocent people in the war, that's all.

Therefore, Yang Yanzhang not only did not intend to hinder Wu Zetian, but also wanted to help Wu Zetian.

In fact, the variable Wu Zetian will not exist for long at all.

After a hundred years, is it possible that the throne will really not be given to her biological son, but to her nephew?

What's more, Wu Chengsi, who was once considered to have the greatest potential to inherit her empire, was accidentally killed by Yang Yanzhang.

As long as the King of Luling Li Xian and the current emperor Li Dan do not cause trouble, and those below do not continue to provoke Wu Zetian, it will be a matter of course for Wu Zetian to return power to the Li family.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. We know what the Queen Mother means. This battle will definitely defeat the Tubo army. Let the world see that the Queen Mother is in charge, and the barbarians from all directions who are also capable of killing dare not look up!"

Wu Zetian's face quickly filled with joy. She stared at Yang Yanzhang for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "Yang Yanzhang, you are indeed a pillar of talent! I hope you will not keep it in mind when I was frivolous towards you before. I am here. Yang Palace is waiting for you to return victorious! When you return to court, I will treat you with courtesy and set an example for future generations of monarchs and ministers!"

These heartfelt words made Yang Yanzhang deeply happy, not only because he might really get rid of Wu Zetian's harassment, but also because it might help Wu Zetian quit the bad habits of the Li Tang Dynasty.

To be honest, Yang Yanzhang was very concerned about the scandalous affairs in the palace of Li Tang Dynasty.

Li Jiancheng had an affair with Li Yuan's concubine, and Li Shimin seized Li Jiancheng's widow.

Li Shimin's son, Princess Gaoyang, was messing around with Bian Ji.

Li Zhi took Li Shimin's concubine Wu Meiniang and took away the queen.

When Wu Zetian arrived, he got involved with the monk again.
Wu Zetian's daughter Princess Taiping was even worse. Xue Huaiyi, Zhang Changzong, and Zhang Yizhi were all her concubines.

Li Xian’s Queen Wei was also a talented person, and she even got involved with Wu Sansi in history.
As for Li Longji later, he was even more playful, and his daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan was snatched by him to become his concubine.

If we could inject a good atmosphere into Datang during the ZTE period, that would be a good thing.

Of course, Yang Yanzhang did not feel that his relationship with Shangguan Wan'er was immoral.

It is reasonable for Emperor E and Nv Ying to be able to serve the Yellow Emperor together. It makes sense for me to play the role of one dragon and two phoenixes...

"Your Majesty, I won't say much else. I just want to say that Your Majesty, please sit still in the palace and wait for good news!"

Then Yang Yanzhang proudly left with everyone.

Wu Zetian looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh again: "If I were 20 years younger..."

……

It takes a while to get to Minzhou from the depths.

But it will take more time to transport the cannon and artillery shells to Minzhou.

So Wang Xiaojie walked in a hurry, but Yang Yanzhang deliberately slowed down, enjoying the scenery along the way with Shangguan Wan'er, and hurried on in a leisurely manner.

In the first two days, the two of them deliberately stayed in a hotel in the city. However, Shangguan Wan'er had a special status and had a meal when she entered the city. So in order not to be disturbed, Shangguan Wan'er took the initiative to spend the night outside the city.

So, on the evening of the third day, the two people who had just passed Hangu Pass stopped by the river.

The sun is setting in the west, with mountains on one side and water on the other, the ancient west wind road, and the scenery is picturesque.

Thinking that a man and a woman would spend the night together, Shangguan Wan'er pretended to watch the sunset and turned her back. Little did she know that the figure in a white dress made Yang Yanzhang lose his mind.

To be honest, I saw a lot of beauties in ancient costumes when I came to Datang, but I never felt like that before.

But now the surroundings are silent, with only the occasional calls of birds and beasts. The beauty and the landscape are a natural landscape painting, especially when the red light of the setting sun hits Shangguan Wan'er's body, and the white dress is dyed red, this scenery , simply intoxicating.

"pretty……"

Yang Yanzhang admired it and couldn't help but murmured in the end.

Although Shangguan Wan'er had been watching the sunset with her back to him, she had actually been listening to the movement behind her. This sigh flew into her ears very clearly, making her heart suddenly feel happy.

There was no pressure from Wu Zetian here, and there was no need to worry about her sister Shangguan Yuqing, so Shangguan Wan'er turned around with her long skirt and met Yang Yanzhang's eyes.

"Yang Yanzhang, am I really that beautiful?"

"If you didn't call yourself an official, you would be ten times more beautiful!"

Yang Yanzhang responded without thinking.
