Chapter 27 This is terrible
Time passed quite quickly, and autumn was coming in a blink of an eye. After giving birth to a child, Wu Tuaner, who had been recuperating for several months and had completely recovered, was once again asked by Wu Zetian to return to the palace to continue serving her.
Many of Wu Zetian's actions made Chen Yi incomprehensible. Just like in the matter of Wu Tuaner, Chen Yi originally felt that after the Murong sisters had a certain gap between him and Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian would no longer let Wu Tuaner, who had given birth to a daughter, go to the palace to serve. He felt that Wu Zetian must also understand that Wu Tuaner, who gave birth to a daughter, would definitely tell him all the situation in the palace, including Wu Zetian's movements. Chen Yi felt that Wu Zetian continued to keep Wu Tuaner by his side, which would provide him with convenience for him to find out the situation in the palace? And it was justified. What was Wu Zetian doing this for? It is quite incomprehensible!
Of course, Chen Yi was willing to see that Wu Zetian asked Wu Tuaner to continue to enter the palace to serve. Anyway, he could find out a lot of things from Wu Tuaner, and he "supported" Wu Zetian's decision. But some of Wu Zetian's other actions were puzzled and a little dissatisfied.
After Wu Zetian "handled" the pregnancy of Murong Qing and Murong Ping, Wu Zetian resumed Chen Yi's position as the chief supervisor of the military artifacts and continued to let him lead the position of the Military Academy. However, the former Minister of War and the Eastern Palace Taiwei, who were also responsible for the construction of the military academy, did not let him care about it, and did not give him a specific explanation, but said that he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it and let him bear less trouble.
Wu Zetian's explanation made Chen Yi very depressed. Although the reason he asked to resign was because he was in a bad state and could not bear to do things, Wu Zetian certainly knew what was going on and knew that his body had always been great and had no problems. Now there was something that reduced to him because he was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it. Isn't this an obvious teasing or punishment?
However, Chen Yi quickly stopped figuring out what was going on. The hero who figured out the matter was the Wu Tuaner who continued to enter the palace to serve Wu Zetian.
Because my daughter was only a few months old, although she was raised by a wet nurse, Wu Tuaner could still go out of the palace to take care of her during her time serving Wu Zetian, and she often came out of the palace to take care of her, feeding her, and so on. Chen Yi also had many opportunities to listen to Wu Tuaner telling about the situation in the palace. It was from Wu Tuaner's story that he found that things were developing in a terrible way.
Once, Wu Zetian gave Wu Tuaner a day off. Chen Yi went to accompany Wu Tuaner and his daughter. The two could not resist the temptation like a **, and they fought with each other. While lying on the couch with each other, Wu Tuaner told Chen Yi about what happened during this period.
"Husband, I want to tell you something!" Wu Tuaner, who was in Chen Yi's arms, said hesitantly.
Chen Yi greedily stroked the Hattori greedily because of Wu Tuaner's breastfeeding and the feeling was better. He asked absent-mindedly: "Tuaner, just say anything if you have something to do!"
"Husband, the day before yesterday, I eavesdropped on the conversation between Mr. Wu and the Empress!"
"Young Master Wu?" Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, and his hands stopped. He didn't immediately react who Wu Tuaner was referring to. After thinking for a while, he realized that it was Helan Minzhi. Helan Minzhi received the gift of Wu Zetian, changed to the surname Wu, and inherited the title of Duke Zhou as a descendant of the Wu family. However, in Chen Yi's sense, he was still Helan Minzhi and did not regard him as "Wu Minzhi", but Wu Tuaner said "Young Master Wu". Without further explanation, he couldn't figure out who he meant, and immediately asked: "What did Minzhi say to the Empress?"
"Young Master Wu said that you have taken too many important positions over the years. He hopes that the Empress can take you as little as possible. He said that this will allow you to go back to your house more and accompany your family!" When Wu Tuaner said this, he hesitated for a moment. Under Chen Yi's gesture, he continued: "Husband, I originally thought that Mr. Wu was thinking for you and our family for your own good. But after listening to the words that followed, I realized that this was not the case. Mr. Wu was a little bit surprised that the Empress was too fond of you!"
"Mr. Wu means that it is precisely because of the Empress's favor that you are lawless in doing things, and you ignore any consequences, and almost cause uncontrollable problems. He hopes that the Empress will be stricter on you and says that you are a descendant of the Chenshi royal family and may have some intentions. You have so many Chenshi subordinates. You should be more careful about you, so as not to make your power expand more and more uncontrollable!"
"Ah?! He actually said this? He mentioned that I am a descendant of Chen Shi?" Chen Yi exclaimed in a low voice, a little unbelievable. What was Helan Minzhi doing this for?
Seeing Chen Yi showing a solemn expression, Wu Tuaner was a little nervous, reached out to hug Chen Yi tightly, and lowered his voice and said, "Husband, Mr. Wu, he also said that he is the descendant of the Wu family, the closest and most trustworthy person to the Empress, not husband, let the Major General of the Empress give you the important duties, but should be handed over to Mr. Wu... Husband, you are too young and have done too many things to make the courtiers disobey, and ruin the reputation of the Empress! Husband, I really can't believe it when I heard it, but Mr. Wu really said that!"
Wu Tuaner then told Chen Yi in detail what she heard that day. Wu Tuaner hesitated for several days before he decided to talk to Chen Yi. The reason for her hesitation was of course that she was afraid that Chen Yi and Helan Minzhi would have a conflict after the talk. She knew that because of the Murong sisters, Helan Minzhi had a lot of objections to Chen Yi, and the two almost had a conflict. Helan Minzhi ran to the mansion several times and threatened Chen Yi in person. Fortunately, Chen Yi was tolerant and did not have a fierce conflict.
Wu Tuaner is also an extremely smart person. He has been with Wu Zetian for many years. He has heard and witnessed many things in power competition. He also figured out that Helan Minzhi would treat Chen Yi like this. It was not just because Chen Yi provoked the sisters Murong Qing and Murong Ping, and wanted to marry the two sisters into the mansion as "pair wives". This was just an inducement. Helan Minzhi of course expressed his dissatisfaction with Chen Yi. Previously, Wu Tuaner also eavesdropped on Chen Yi several times when talking about things between Helan Minzhi and Wu Zetian several times. He didn't care too much at the time. He thought it was Helan Minzhi's "jealous" and was unwilling to let him down as a descendant of the Wu family. Wu Zetian was not as favored as Chen Yi, so he had those dissatisfaction expressions. But now it seems that things are not that way.
"Tuan'er, thank you for what you said today. It seems that my elder brother is really different from his usual behavior. His purpose is not simple!" Chen Yiting sighed. He could also understand the reason why Helan Min's promotion in recent years has been very fast.
Originally, Helan Minzhi did not have much to do, and most of his official positions were idle. However, in recent years, his eldest uncle was promoted to an official position like a rocket. Now he is one of the six ministers and has several other important duties. From what the Wu Tuan just said, he also thought about it. It was Helan Minzhi's repeated suggestions in front of Wu Zetian that Wu Zetian did not restore his other duties, including the Minister of War and the Right Guard of the Crown Prince. But he couldn't understand, what was the real purpose of Helan Minzhi doing this?
Could it be that Helan Minzhi was dissatisfied with the fact that he was favored and valued by Wu Zetian, so he took advantage of the situation? It shouldn't be that Helan Minzhi's mind would not be so simple. Chen Yi always felt that his elder brother, in addition to being romantic by nature, also had some other needs!
As for what Helan Minzhi wants, he still dares not make a conclusion, but it should be more profound!
The facts quickly proved that Chen Yi's speculation was not unreasonable. Half a month after Wu Tuaner told him about this incident, Wu Tuaner told him again that he had eavesdropped on the content of Helan Minzhi and Wu Zetian's private conversation. This time, the Wu Tuaner's speech surprised Chen Yi even more, and he also understood what Helan Minzhi thought about this son.
Helan Minzhi suggested to Wu Zetian to posthumously confer the ancestors of Wu family, and suggested that Wu Zetian's great-grandfather, grandfather, father and other ancestors be named princes, and repeatedly advised Wu Zetian to let Wu Zetian have more relatives and relatives of Wu Zetian's Wu family to give more and higher glory. In fact, Helan Minzhi's advice is very easy for people to understand, that is, his current only descendant of Wu family, also wants to get a prince or prince. I believe Wu Zetian also understands this meaning.
However, Wu Zetian did not denounce Helan Minzhi for being so bewitched, and under Helan Minzhi's persuasion, he seemed to be moved.
When Wu Zetian followed his advice and prepared to give the descendants of the Wu family a higher honor, that is, when he planned to give him the title of Prince, Helan Minzhi once again made suggestions to Wu Zetian. He used the allusion of Empress Lu in the Han Dynasty to tell that although Empress Lu was powerful for a while, she did not have the title of right and right, and the Lu family failed in the end, and the descendants of the Lu family had a tragic end.
"Man can do many things, and women can do them too! Empress, it is ultimately a temporary solution for your Majesty to take charge of state affairs on behalf of His Majesty. You must have more ideas!" This is the most shocking sentence that Wu Tuaner overhearded Helan Minzhi's words to Wu Zetian.
Of course, after Helan Minzhi said this, Wu Zetian immediately stopped the conversation between the two, but this was eavesdropped by Wu Tuaner and told to Chen Yi. Chen Yi was naturally shocked when he heard it, and instantly felt that Helan Minzhi might also be a time traveler.
Isn't this clearly tempting Wu Zetian to seize power and become the emperor? Empress Lü failed to take over the power with righteousness, and eventually the power was born in the descendants of the Liu family. The meaning was too obvious. Although Chen Yi, who is familiar with history, knew that Wu Zetian would take this step in the end, he could not have expected that Helan Minzhi, who was born in this era, would also make such suggestions to Wu Zetian.
