"Haha, you finally understand. Don't worry. I can see your loyalty. I will definitely not treat you badly when things work out in the future. I will keep my word."
After that, Empress Wu whispered a few words of comfort to Ma Jin before letting him leave.
Shortly after Ma Jin left, Empress Wu raised the corners of her mouth and said silently: "I will naturally not forget what you did for me. However, only the dead can keep secrets in this world. Therefore, for the sake of my grand plan, you I can only sacrifice it, but I will definitely take care of your family. In fact, this is the biggest benefit you can get from doing this for me. If you don't agree, not only you, but also your family will be affected. They will all definitely die."
After thinking silently for a moment, Empress Wu called Shangguan Wan'er in and asked her: "Wan'er, it's time for Pei Yan, the servant, to go to the palace to report on his duties in the next few days?"
"The Empress of Heaven remembers it accurately. Yes, it was the day when Prime Minister Pei entered the palace to report his duties to the Empress of Heaven. I wonder if the Empress of Heaven suddenly mentioned this matter, but what are her instructions?" Shangguan Wan'er asked Empress Wu with a smile on her face.
But Empress Wu smiled lightly and said, "Nothing. Go and urge Pei Yan to hurry up and reach Luoyang within five days. I still have something for him to do."
"Yes, empress." Shangguan Wan'er heard the words and quickly agreed, then wrote a letter to Pei Yan according to Empress Wu's wishes. At the same time, she was shocked in her heart, because Chang'an is thousands of miles away from Luoyang. If she wants to reach it within five days, At the very least, he should be running two hundred miles a day. Even if he is riding a horse, the speed is astonishing.
"She is so anxious to get Pei Yan to Luoyang. What is her plan? Huh, it must be detrimental to Qi Lang. I have to tell Qi Lang this news as soon as possible. I believe that as long as he gets this news, he can guess her. Purpose?"
Shangguan Wan'er thought for a moment, then wrote another secret letter, and then sent it to Li Xian through a special channel so that Li Xian could prepare in advance.
However, Shangguan Wan'er never expected it, and Li Xian couldn't figure it out. Although Li Xiandong used almost all his informants in the East Palace, he still couldn't find the relevant answer, so he could only conclude that this matter was definitely not good for him. He ordered the members of Infernal Affairs hidden in the palace to monitor Pei Yan's whereabouts and report any problems immediately.
But at this time, an important guest suddenly came to Empress Wu's palace. This guest was Gar Gongren, the son of the Tibetan Prime Minister Gar Qinling, who had previously announced his surrender to the Tang Dynasty.
"I wonder if your beloved has come to see me, what advice can you give me?" Empress Wu actually guessed the other party's plan as soon as she came to see him. Naturally, she was extremely happy and asked Gal Gongren.
But I saw Gal Gongren saying in a deep voice: "Wei Chen opened the skylight today and spoke frankly. Today Wei Chen asked to see the Queen of Heaven in order to swear allegiance to the Queen of Heaven. The Queen should know that Wei Chen's father and three uncles are all here." He died in the hands of your son, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xian. Weichen has a sworn blood feud with that person, so he hopes to join hands with the Queen of Heaven to deal with that person. Weichen will do whatever it takes. The price is to help the Queen of Heaven get rid of him."
"But, that is my son after all, and my blood with him is thicker than water..." After hearing this, Empress Wu frowned and said.
But he saw Gal Gongren smile coldly, then turned around and left.
At this time, Wei Tuan'er, who was accompanying the attendant, shouted loudly: "You are so brave! You are so rude to the Queen of Heaven. You are now a minister of the Tang Dynasty, how dare you treat the Tang Dynasty
Is the Queen so rude?"
"Discourteous? Haha, this is really funny! So what if I am rude? Your Queen of the Tang Dynasty is about to lose her life. Do you still care about me, a rude person? So what if I care about you?
So what if you kill me? It's just that I have to wait for you under the Nine Springs for a while."
Gal Gongren sneered, turned around and left without saying another word.
"What an arrogant guy, come here and take him down..."
"Wait!" Before Wei Tuan'er could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Empress Wu, who smiled and said: "Why is Aiqing so anxious to leave? Aren't Aiqing discussing how to cooperate with me?
?”
Gal Gongren snorted coldly and said: "The Queen has no sincerity in cooperation, so why should I waste my time? If I don't leave, do I want to listen to the ridicule of your maid?"
After hearing this, Empress Wu laughed and said: "I really didn't expect you, a young man, to be so impatient. That's all, I won't joke with you anymore. In fact, the prince is also a serious problem for me. Since Aiqing is willing to help,
This fact couldn't be better. Aiqing's visit to me is really a timely help. Please believe that as long as Aiqing is willing to help me, I will not let Aiqing suffer. I don't know what Aiqing's request is.
?”
I saw Gar Gongren cupping his hands and saying: "I don't have any requests. I just hope that when things come true in the future, the Queen of Heaven will allow me to restore Tubo. Of course, I will also guarantee that I, Tubo, will be a minister for generations to come."
Domain."
"Haha, Aiqing is such a good calculator. The Tang Dynasty was able to successfully destroy Tubo, but it also took a lot of effort and lost countless soldiers, horses, money and food, but Aiqing easily obliterated all of this with just one mouth.
Isn’t this a bit too much for your contribution?” Although Empress Wu didn’t pay attention to such a request at all, she was unwilling to expose her bottom line directly and said this to Gal Gongren. Of course,
There was also a hint of a test in this. She wanted to see through this confrontation whether Gal Gongren was talented enough and worthy of her trust.
But I saw Gal Gongren arguing with reason: "The Queen of Heaven will not talk about calculations or calculations. You Central Plains people have a saying, the world is bustling, both for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit, and it is not for a humble minister to do this.
It's just one person, but it depends on the cooperation of hundreds of thousands of Tibetan soldiers to do it well. Even if I don't care about my own interests, I still have to think of those who work hard for me, right? Besides, the Queen of Heaven is no better.
It's just generosity to others, because if the Queen doesn't have enough power around her, after that person succeeds in the future, everything will belong to that person and has nothing to do with the Queen. The Queen will take other people's things to appease the ministers.
What’s wrong with this?”
"Haha, Aiqing's sharp teeth and sharp tongue are really impressive. Well, I agree to this. As long as you can complete the target task, I will allow you to restore Tibet." Empress Wu solemnly said
He glanced at Gal Gongren and said. (To be continued.)
