The Empress Dowager could not sit high. The battle for Shibao City was a battle between Buddhism and Taoism. The fight was definitely a battle. She could not afford the consequences of the fall of Hehuang. She was waiting for the Buddhist sect to give her an explanation, and was also waiting for the Taoist sect to express her opinion.

"Everyone retreats, tomorrow is the New Year's Day, and I will discuss this after the New Year's Day!"

The Queen Mother waved.

"Yes, I will leave!"

The ministers left the palace one by one.

The palace became quiet, and the queen mother was like a sculpture, motionless.

The things that Buddhism did really angered her and made her feel a huge sense of crisis.

After being in charge of the Tang Dynasty for twenty years, Buddhism still dared to back-study, which was clearly related to being not the real lord of the world. If I could gain the dragon energy of the Tang Dynasty, how could Buddhism dare to be so presumptuous?

Gradually, two thoughts burst out.

First, speed up the attack on the Li Tang royal family and kill as much as possible!

The Empress Dowager also understood the principle that the remaining ones were kings. If he killed the Li family, the world would belong to the Wu family!

Second, accelerate the secret cultivation of one's own team, not to compete with the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, at least they can win the right to speak.

Of course, old ministers cannot do it. After all, they have been an official in the court for many years and have already weaved a mixed net of interests. They may not be able to be loyal to themselves unconditionally. They can only choose the talented people from the younger generation.

The face of a young talent flashed through his mind. After pondering for a while, the empress dowager turned and said, "Wan'er, disguise yourself and bring Xiao Ye's secret, so that outsiders can know it!"

"promise!"

Shangguan Wan'er was slightly surprised and retreated to the side hall, dressed up as a man, left the palace from the corner gate, took a ox cart, crossed the Tianjin Bridge, and walked from the outside of the market. After about half an hour, she arrived at Xiaoye's Mansion.

"Young master, do you have to knock on the door?"

The coachman asked.

"No, I'll go there myself!"

Shangguan Wan'er got out of the car and stepped up the steps and knocked on the door knocker.

"Who?"

The small window on the door opened and Hua Bo poked his face out.

Shangguan Wan'er asked in a hoarse voice: "Can Xiao Zhuangyuan be there?"

Hua Bo said: "My son went to a friend's house to attend a banquet and has not returned yet."

Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a moment and said, "Can you find Xiao Zhuangyuan back?"

Hua Bo looked at Shangguan Wan'er suspiciously and said nothing.

In the middle of the night, someone came to the door sneakily, and anyone would have ideas, but Hua Bo was not afraid. He had a few great masters at home.

Shangguan Wan'er knew Hua Bo's thoughts and gritted her teeth and said, "I came from the palace. If you have urgent matters, you should find Xiao Zhuangyuan. You can call him here, don't miss the matter, don't let outsiders know."

"Then... the young master comes in first?"

The name in the palace was not used casually. Hua Bo believed it seven minutes and asked.

"No, you hurry up, I'll wait for him in the car!"

Shangguan Wan'er urged him to return to the car.

Hua Bo also hurried out to find Xiao Ye.

Princess Taiping Beppu not far away.

‘It turned out to be Shangguan Wan'er? What does the mother want to do?’

Princess Taiping's eyebrows frowned slightly.

There was her eyeliner in the palace, and the fall of Shibao City was known at the first time. Is there any connection between the two?

After a moment, Xiao Ye and Xi Lian'er arrived, gave a few instructions, and watched Hua Bo and Xi Lian'er return to the mansion, and then got on the bus, and the vehicle slowly started.

Xiao Ye turned around and looked at it, and was startled, and said in surprise: "Miss Shangguan?"

Shangguan Wan'er's body trembled slightly, and then calmed down and said, "Have Xiao Lang seen me?"

Xiao Ye smiled and said, "I once met at the Qionglin Banquet. Did Miss Shangguan forget it?"

"You have a good memory!"

Shangguan Wan'er snorted lightly.

Xiao Ye and Shangguan Wan'er were not familiar with each other at all. Listening to the coquettish humming with her daughter's family, she didn't know how to answer the words, so she simply kept silent.

The car became quiet, and the dim candlelight swayed irregularly with the bumps. Two black shadows shone on the wall of the cabin, sometimes away from each other, sometimes embracing each other, and occasionally blending into one.

A sense of embarrassment, a bit of strange atmosphere gradually spread out. A faint fragrance beside him was refreshing. Xiao Ye couldn't help but look at it, and when he saw Shangguan Wan'er also turned to look.

Four eyes are opposite!

Suddenly, Shangguan Wan'er quickly lowered her head, her pretty face was already flushed, her heart was as if she was hit by a deer, and she mistook her to say, "Stone Castle City has fallen, the Queen Mother secretly summoned you!"

Xiao Ye's expression changed, and lightning flashed in his mind.

Now Xiao Ye has a general understanding of the relationship between the two sects of Buddhism and the court. Although the empress dowager has the support of Buddhism, the two may not be the same. Behind Tubo is the authentic Buddhist sect. In connection with the Tianguanghong Buddha, it is obvious that the fall of Shibao City is the real counterattack of Buddhism, but it infringes on the interests of the empress dowager. There must be two in everything. Perhaps the empress dowager felt a hidden crisis and was worried that she might be regarded as an abandoned son, and she was afraid that she would really cultivate her own team.

For the Queen Mother, the Censorate was the dog she raised.

Qingliu and her may not be in the same mood.

All the scholars of the Wu family were useless.

Could it be... that I have fallen into the Empress Dowager's eyes?

"Thank you Miss Shangguan for your advice!"

Xiao Ye hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

"Well, just have to figure it out yourself!"

Shangguan Wan'er nodded.

"No, I forgot to change the official uniform!"

Xiao Ye suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Since the Queen Mother summoned her secretly, how could she care?"

Shangguan Wan'er burst into laughter.

In a moment, the ox cart drove into the palace and Shangguan Wan'er led Xiao Ye to the Wucheng Palace.

"My minister Xiao Ye bowed to the Queen Mother!"

Xiao Ye knelt down and kowtowed.

The Empress Dowager sat upright on the head and looked at Xiao Ye coldly. After a long time, she said, "I heard that you have a close relationship with the witches of Suxin Sect?"

"I... I am greedy for flowers and lustful, and I am guilty!"

Xiao Ye knew that in front of the strong superiors, any quibbling would be pale and powerless, and it would be better to admit it.

The Queen Mother said again: "I heard that you have a close relationship with Monserzhazhao Linli?"

Xiao Ye dared not wear this hat. Lust is a common problem for men and is harmless. However, making friends with ministers, especially with foreign vassals, is to cut off your head. He hurriedly argued: "I cannot say that I have a relationship with Lin Lizhen. I have to have some contact because of the five imperial edicts. Please give me some advice!"

"oh?"

The Empress Dowager said, stared at Xiao Ye, and continued, "I heard that Su Hou Shen can have today because you are pushing it behind the scenes?"

Xiao Ye's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"snort!"

The Empress Dowager snorted: "Su Houshen is a true god, but he was knocked into the quagmire by Emperor Wen of Sui. He borrowed your hand to make a comeback. It is still worthy of fate. But as far as I know, Zi Gu Shen has always been extremely arrogant, so why do he favor you? He even moved the temple to your house? Xiao Lang might tell me why this is?"

Xiao Ye was very impressed and the first thing he thought about was the underground palace of Emperor Yang of Sui, but this matter was extremely secret. The only ones who were truly informed were himself, Qiao Niang, Zi Gu, and Chunlan, Xia Lotus, Qiu Chuan and Winter Plum. No one would reveal any of them.

Maybe the Queen Mother is really curious.

Xiao Ye's back was already wet, half was frightened, and the other half was pretending, and stuttered: "I am very puzzled, maybe it's Miss Zi who cherishes her talents."

The Empress Dowager snorted again, "How can you cherish talent and pity talent?" It's not that the great disaster is coming, and even the gods are worried, so they make friends with talented people in the world and help themselves overcome the disaster with their luck."

After all, people still have a return to death, and heaven and earth are about to perish, so how can we not fight hard?

Although the way of heaven cannot interfere with the present world, it can gather luck and create the son of luck. The Empress Dowager planned to concentrate the son of luck and then look at what Xiao Ye did, and he was obviously a person with great luck.

So she first thought of Xiao Ye.

In fact, Shi Jin also has luck. He was able to escape from Xiao Ye repeatedly and immortal, which was a manifestation of luck. When the Empress Dowager summoned Shi to the scene, in addition to replenishing the essence and spirit, he also had the idea of ​​taking away his luck.

"Xiao Lang, are you willing to do things for me?"

The Queen Mother asked in a deep voice.

Doing things for me is different from doing things for the court. For example, Di Renjie and Zhang Jianzhi are loyal to the court, while doing things for the empress dowager is only loyal to individuals. Once the interests of the empress dowager conflict with the interests of the court, you need to stand on the empress dowager's side unconditionally.
