In the village on the Xiaoxiao River in the dusk rain, the rich people in the green forest know the news at night.
He didn't have to run away from his last name, now he is half the king in the world.

…
"What a brilliant charm!"
Bai Fusi said: This queen's clothes are not untied, and not an inch of skin is exposed. With just a few words and ambiguous expressions, she can make herself lose her mind and almost collapse her heart. Such a charm is nothing short of a peerless magic skill.
Bai Fu warned himself that he must be on high alert against Empress Zhang in the future and not make any more deviations.
…
Although Empress Zhang did not succeed this time, she was not discouraged. She had strong confidence in her charm skills and had never failed in her harem for many years.
Bai Fu is young and vigorous, at the age when he is lustful and admires Shao Ai. Although his martial arts is far inferior to Bai Fu's, his invincible charm skills are his nemesis.
What's more important is that no man in the world can resist his strategy of substituting others for others.
In this world, how many people don’t think about their children? Children are not only the heart and soul of their parents, but also their weaknesses.
Possessing Queen Zhang and letting Queen Zhang conceive her own flesh and blood will not only form the strongest ally with Queen Zhang, but also give birth to a child through her belly, allowing her own blood to quietly become the master of the Tang Dynasty.
Why not do something so cheap? Only a fool would refuse.
"Is Bai Fu such a fool? Obviously not. With Bai Fu's wisdom, as long as he thinks clearly, he will not miss this golden opportunity."
Empress Zhang believed that her plan was impeccable. As long as Bai Fu was given a certain amount of time to figure out the stakes, Bai Fu would definitely fall into her arms.
Thinking of Bai Fu's handsome appearance, stalwart body, and elegant style, Empress Zhang narrowed her eyes and licked her lips. She had to admit that she was also attracted by Bai Fu and was completely intoxicated by Bai Fu's breath.
The act of having a child comes completely from the heart and is not considered a sacrifice at all. It is simply a win-win situation between you and me.
Empress Zhang stared at the bronze mirror. The woman in the bronze mirror was graceful and elegant. Although she did not have the youthful atmosphere of a young lady, her proud breasts, sexy waist, and peach-like curved hips gave her a more...
The graceful charm and infinite charm of a mature woman.
But, how to get Bai Fu, a little boy, to take the bait? This time, it will scare the snake. Next time, if you want to seduce Bai Fu, it will not be so easy.
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. If you want to deal with Bai Fu, you must first thoroughly study Bai Fu's character traits and behavior style.
Veteran ministers in the court said that Bai Fu and Qingxuan's behavior when they were young were quite similar.
Like a teacher, like a disciple. This may be a breakthrough. Why not start from here?
Empress Zhang grasped the glass cup in her hand, her eyes wandering, and she quickly came up with a plan.
On this day, Empress Zhang set up a tea circle in the Taiye Pavilion of the Daming Palace and announced that her wife, Mrs. Pei, would come to the palace to have an audience.
This Mrs. Pei is the mother of Crown Princess Dugu Xiaozhong.
What does it mean to have a good relationship with Queen Zhang? Of course Mrs. Pei knows.
Mrs. Pei knew the stakes: once Prince Li Chu ascended the throne, Empress Zhang would become the Empress Dowager. Whether Dugu Xiaozhong could survive the bloody battles in the harem unscathed and stand out from the fight with the concubines and become the empress of the palace would depend to a large extent.
It depends on the strength of the Queen Mother's support.
When Mrs. Pei heard that the Empress had summoned her, she did not dare to neglect her. She dressed up carefully and went into the palace with expensive gifts to pay homage to Empress Zhang.
Taiye Pavilion is located on Penglai Mountain in Taiye Pond of Daming Palace, with a quiet environment and pleasant scenery. Looking at Taiye Pond from the pavilion, the pool of spring water is sparkling and beautiful.
Although Mrs. Pei has a noble status, it was her first time rafting in Taiye Lake and climbing Penglai Mountain, which made her feel extremely honored.
Along the way, Mrs. Pei peeked at the beautiful scenery around her and thought to herself: "If Xiao Zhong becomes a queen in the future, I can come here to watch the lake and drink tea from time to time. If life is like this, what else can I ask for?"
Empress Zhang saw Mrs. Pei's expression in her eyes, pretending not to know on the surface, but she knew better in her heart.
After the two of them sat down, they reviewed the refreshments, and the parents chatted non-stop: Among the wealthy families, whose daughter is waiting for a daughter, whose son is taking the imperial examination for high school, and whose house is haunted by monsters...
Empress Zhang was calculating mentally but not intentionally, and quickly brought the topic to the head of Qingxuan, Deng Bi.
Empress Zhang said: "I heard from the veterans of the court that Mr. Bai Fu has some shadow of his master Deng Bi. It is said that when his master Deng Bi was young, he was very beautiful and talented, and he was jointly known as Sun Yanxing, your husband's brother-in-law."
'Two prides without peer'. The late emperor placed high hopes on them and believed that they would become the pillars of the country and the most talented ministers and assistants in the future."
Mrs. Pei was noncommittal, echoed a few words, and said nothing more.
Empress Zhang frowned slightly and thought to herself: "What kind of business is this? I asked you to come because I want to hear the detailed explanation from you, the client."
Empress Zhang smiled slightly, peeled an tangerine and handed it to Mrs. Pei, saying: "In the imperial examination, Pei, the old master, was the examiner. He took a liking to Deng Bi and recommended him to enter the palace examination. That's how Deng Bi was appointed Emperor Zetian.
The theory of hand-picking the number one scholar, Jinshi and ranking. If this is true, then Deng Bi should be regarded as a disciple of the old clan leader Pei.
I also heard that Lord Pei cherishes talents and wanted to betroth you to Deng Bi. I wonder if this is the case?"
When this topic came up, Mrs. Pei became so angry that she no longer remained silent.
Mrs. Pei angrily said to Empress Zhang: "Deng Bi was really famous in Chang'an for his beautiful appearance, but he was not the disciple of the old feudal lord of the Concubine family, but the disciple of Di Renjie and Di Ge.
At that time, the old lord of the concubine's family took one look at Deng Bigao and thought that he was a member of a poor family, so he wanted to betroth his concubine to him.
This Deng Bi didn't know what was good or bad, so he found an excuse to politely refuse the concubine's old clan leader on the grounds that he was marrying the queen of the Wang family in Taiyuan.
Although the old lord of the concubine's family is sorry, after all, marriage comes first, and we, Mr. Pei, are reasonable. Let's forget about Mr. Pei's marriage.
Unexpectedly, Deng Bi looked like a mountain. On the surface, he was studying hard with Mr. Di Ge in the Hanlin Academy, but behind his back, he flirted with Xue Zhao and made a private decision for life.
This Xue Zhao is the daughter of Princess Taiping and Xue Shao, and is the apple of Emperor Zetian's eye.
Finally, Emperor Zetian personally intervened in the matter and issued an edict, ordering the Deng and Wang families to terminate their engagement and grant marriage to Deng and Xue.
Speaking of which, this Wang Shu is Xue Zhao's best friend, who has been playing with her since childhood. On one side, she is her fiancée, and on the other side, she is a close friend who loves her sisters. It is a dilemma. Wang Shu was so embarrassed that he was forced to go to Emei.
Get your hair cut and become a nun.
Since the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan was involved, the talkative women of the Qiwang family of the fifth surname were not able to discuss it casually, so they made fun of Pei's marriage and made fun of the concubine.
The children of other aristocratic families in Chang'an City were also afraid of being involved in right and wrong and being ridiculed, so they were reluctant to come to propose marriage.
My concubine did not attract anyone or offend anyone, but because of this incident, she could not hold her head up for several years, and even delayed her wedding time. It was not until she married into the Dugu family that no one dared to speak nonsense, and the matter came to an end."
"So there is such a wonderful story?" Queen Zhang thought to herself.
She smiled at Mrs. Pei and said, "Since Xue Zhao and Deng Bilang are talented and beautiful, and they are in love with each other, why did Deng Bi later abandon his wife and official position and escape to the world?"
Mrs. Pei smiled proudly and said: "This is Deng Bi's retribution for harming others and himself. He fell into his opponent's alienation plan."
Queen Zhang smiled and said: "Didn't Deng Bi claim to be the reincarnation of Zhang Liang and the resurrection of Kong Ming? How could he fall into someone else's trap?"
Mrs. Pei showed an enigmatic smile and gossiped: "The problem is not with Deng Bi, but with Xue Zhao.
This Xue Zhao, who was known as the most beautiful woman in Chang'an at that time, this Xue Zhao, who was born with a lot of luck, this Xue Zhao, who was regarded by Emperor Zetian as the successor of the empress, haha, actually fell into the beauty trap
