Chapter 21 Crossing the Tribulation for Others

emmmmm, Di Renjie was speechless.

Wu Zetian seemed to know the purpose of this young man's visit.

Wu Zetian: "What did you declare before to be true and false?"... You are a magician, right? Or a magician who talks nonsense.

Shen Sanwen: "Sanwen's assertions are true and I dare not deceive the queen."

Di Renjie shouted angrily, "Shen Sanwen, you deceived me with your clever words and deeds. You said it was for the country and the country, but it was for the love of your children. It is really shameful for me." Then he said to the queen in a gentle manner, "Di Renjie did not investigate and was deceived by others. , I hope the Queen will punish you."

The queen stopped being angry for a while, and she did not superficially think that Shen Sanwen was just being alarmist. "Do you really have physiognomy and can decide between life and death?"

Shen Sanwen was speechless for a while, "Three questions are indeed here for the princess. However, the three questions about the emperor, the queen's matters, and Xue Shao's fate, the three questions will all tell the truth. I hope the queen will make plans early."

The person who can stand out in palace fights, court fights, and family fights cannot be someone who doesn't know how to prepare for a rainy day.

Shen Sanwen believed that the woman in front of him would consider his words carefully and seriously, and she would be considered a great success in the future.

As for Di Renjie, this stubbornness still has many years to go, so he can only let it go for now.

Wu Zetian thought to herself that Xue Shao was too benevolent and not Machiavellian, but His Majesty liked him very much.

Wu Zetian: "I already understand Mr. Shen's desire for peace. This matter still needs your Majesty's approval. If Mr. Shen's physiognomy can predict the fate of the country and relieve your Majesty's worries, this matter will be easy to hear."

………

I don't read much, so don't lie to me.

Your Majesty agrees. You are really satisfied with me. How can Your Majesty disagree? This is an excuse!

Shen San asked, neither humble nor arrogant, "What do you think the queen can do to relieve your majesty's worries?"

Wu Zetian: "Since the Northern Zhou Dynasty, aristocratic families and the royal family have ruled the world together. The imperial power has changed, but the aristocratic families have remained the same. The aristocratic families are powerful, and nine out of ten people in the court are from aristocratic families. They often manipulate the imperial power, but the imperial power relies on the aristocratic families to govern the world. The late emperor hated the aristocratic families. , being alienated from the aristocratic family is like a lump in the throat. Your Majesty is worried about this and cannot sleep at night."

Shen Sanwen responded calmly, "Your Majesty is not the one who is worried about the family. In the past, the prince was established and supported by the family, and the late emperor got help from the powerful people in the army and raised troops to seize power. The family was afraid of the former emperor's revenge, and the late emperor relied on the family to govern the world, so the late emperor wanted to eliminate him. Aristocratic family. Most of the aristocratic families who support the prince are benevolent and weak. This was the case before Your Majesty ascended the throne. If you can win the respect of the late emperor, the aristocratic family will be more helpful. After His Majesty ascended the throne, he was unstoppable, expanding territory externally and dictating the government internally. The aristocratic family could only surrender. .Your Majesty is kind and does not want to cause trouble to the family and suffer till dawn. In this prosperous age, the family is more prosperous than in the past. However, when the queen is in power, the family is quite critical, so this is what the queen means."

Shen Sanwen had to point out what the queen meant in this matter. He was not someone who was stupid and resigned despite being used as a gun. Such a person, in the queen's heart, was probably not worthy of the princess.

Shen Sanwen continued, "The late emperor used military power to control the family. If the late emperor had not cherished his reputation, he would have eliminated the family. Although the family has power all over the nine states, it has never held the military power of the Tang Dynasty. If you have money, you can recruit troops and plan great causes in troubled times. A prosperous age can only be enjoyed for one life. Therefore, it is easy to eliminate an aristocratic family."

Wu Zetian saw Shen Sanwen's clear vision and admired it very much. "How can you, the son of a merchant, be so knowledgeable?"

He's the son of a merchant again! What's wrong?

Wu Zetian did not find this sentence offensive, "I need to think carefully about peace matters."

Shen Sanwen thought to himself, is this considered a failure? The prophets have added three historical facts, and the mother-in-law is really difficult to deal with. What is going to be done? He must ask clearly before the eviction order.

Shen San asked: "I would like to hear the Queen's criteria for choosing a son-in-law."

Wu Zetian: "What will happen in the future cannot be decided for three to ten years. Besides, you once said that destiny cannot be violated, and it is difficult to avoid disaster."

Shen Sanwen knew that this was his only chance, but when the time came to use the book, he would regret it. He really didn’t understand what happened this year. If you give me another chance, I will definitely read the history books of the Tang Dynasty.

Heartache.

Shen Sanwen knew that his biggest problem was his family background. Even the princess's sister-in-law had to be from a noble family, let alone himself.

Shen Sanwen could only bite the bullet and answer, "I want to marry Princess Taiping. I sincerely want to live up to it in this life. Sanwen was born as a merchant and has a humble status, but he is willing to go against the will of heaven and use his meager power to protect the princess's life. The princess has golden branches and jade leaves. , regardless of whether King Xue is married to the Cui family, there is no difference."

Facing this old fox, Shen Sanwen was like a primary school student.

Wu Zetian was a little hesitant. If it was true as he said, Xue Shao was a short-lived ghost and he had to make another choice.

Wu Zetian: "If you can prove your physiognomy, I would like to marry you."

Shen San asked: "The secrets of heaven cannot be calculated, and opportunities cannot be exhausted. I would like to hear that what the Queen wishes to know can be calculated by divination. Three questions cannot guarantee it."

Wu Zetian turned around and picked up an envelope, "The Taiping wedding has been prepared and the wedding date has been decided. Here are the birth dates of Taiping. If you can calculate the scheduled wedding date, I will recognize your ability. Only I and Your Majesty know this matter, and the wedding date is also known. It’s decided today.”

Submit a sub-question! I know Princess Taiping very well.

Shen Sanwen pretended to be calm, concealed his smile, and described his posture as more and more humble, "Three questions have been calculated on this matter. Princess Taiping's wedding is scheduled for July, and Wannian County will be the wedding venue."

Empress Wu was shocked.

There was not just one date sent by the ceremony officer. After repeated discussions with His Majesty, I chose July. Moreover, the starting point of the wedding sedan chair was the Daming Palace in the northeast, and the Wannian County Government Office was in the southeast of the city. Generally, princesses get married based on the distance that is closer. Chang'an County is the wedding hall, and Wannian County is the wedding hall, which means the marriage of wealth and wealth for thousands of years, and the city of Chang'an is held around the city. The wedding can be grander and more solemn, and the people can also be tainted with some joy. It's my own idea to make my daughter more respectable.

It's an idea that I haven't had time to express yet.

In the end, it was revealed in one word.

Besides being shocked, I'm still shocked.

Wu Zetian couldn't help but confirm again, "What you said is true. Then Xue Shao really can't share wealth and honor with Ping'er?"

As a mother, I definitely don’t want my daughter to be a widow. Although the princess can remarry, no one is young anymore, and remarrying may not have the feelings of a young couple, nor may they be happy.

When Shen Sanwen saw that Empress Wu only cared about the princess in her heart and had completely forgotten about the emperor, she knew how a princess could be favored and how difficult it was to marry a princess. "Sanwen had carefully calculated that Xue Shaofu would only marry a princess for nine years at most. , there will be a bloody disaster."

If I don't marry the princess, I'm afraid there will be no body left.

"At that time, the princess' temperament will also change drastically. Sanwen really can't bear to see this situation."

Wu Zetian thought about her daughter carefully. She had been smart and kind-hearted since she was a child. What would happen if she really experienced these pains? She really couldn't bear to see her suffer.

However, she also looked down upon Shen Sanwen.

"Can you help Xue Shao survive the disaster?"
