Chapter 267 Ignore Xue Huaiyi!
Shangguan Wan'er was undoubtedly unwilling to touch on Yue Feng's topic, especially in front of Wu Zetian, because she didn't know if Wu Zetian was testing her!
She cleverly pulled the topic away and brought it up to Xue Huaiyi to talk about it. Wu Zetian really didn't have the heart to talk about Yue Feng again. Recently, Wu Zetian has a new favorite. Zhang Changzong is not only quiet and polite, but also gentle as water. It's much better than Xue Huaiyi's rude body!
Therefore, Wu Zetian was quite neglected to Xue Huaiyi. This monk was not a chanting monk. Xue Huaiyi raised a group of monks from the White Horse Temple. They were all young and strong. Without summoning in the palace, they did nothing and did anything wrong. Luoyang really caused a lot of trouble.
Wu Zetian had a headache when she mentioned Xue Huaiyi. Now this guy has a memorial to send troops to fight in person and to quell the Eastern Turkic rebellion in the north for Wu Zhou!
"Wan'er, what do the ministers think about the Turkic affairs? Do they all think they should fight?" Wu Zetian said.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "The ministers of the Fengge in Luantai have been hotly discussed in recent days. The Turks rebelled in the north and have been quelled since the Taizong Dynasty. Now, they have become even worse in recent years. Gu Dulu is a hero. This person has fought with us more than once, and most of the ministers tend to fight!"
Wu Zetian frowned slightly and slowly stood up and said, "Is war a matter of one word? War is a major matter for the country. My Great Zhou has just established a country, and everything is in trouble at this time. If the Northern Expedition is over, it will probably cause trouble for the people!
I have been thinking about a question, that is, after I ascended the throne, all countries came to pay tribute and congratulate from all directions, but I have never given any thanks. This year I am going to host a banquet to entertain envoys from all countries. Taking this opportunity to get in touch with the Turks, you still have to have two ways to cure the Turks, one is to use military force and the other is to use softness!
Our Tang Dynasty can get along with the Turks, so that each other's royal family can become bloody. With this foundation, we will use the border infiltration to be gentle and assimilate the Turks, and gradually incorporate them into our Great Zhou border. This is a great strategy to pacify the Turks!"
Wu Zetian talked in a casual manner, and Shangguan Wan'er listened carefully and was impressed by Wu Zetian's idea. Indeed, since the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, the wars in the north have never stopped, and the wars between the Turks and the Central Plains are endless. The so-called people who are not our race will have different hearts. Even if they can be unified, the situation will change rapidly in a few years at most, and a new war will inevitably be inevitable.
Shangguan Wan'er was familiar with history books and knew that the reason why the contradiction between nomadic peoples and the Central Plains ethnic groups in history was irreconcilable is that the gap in production and life and cultural heritage of the two ethnic groups was too big. Wu Zetian now formulated a strategy to let the Central Plains culture penetrate the Turks. This arrangement was once very successful in the Taizong Dynasty.
She immediately said, "Your Majesty, you have a far-sighted vision. Such thoughts are really for the world and the people! But... how should Master Xue respond?"
Wu Zetian said: "This is it. Tell Master Xue, just say that my arrangements for the Northern Expedition will not be convenient. Let him train troops well. In addition, let him arrange a feast of all countries. I will promote the grand grandeur of my Wuzhou Dynasty above the feast of all countries, so that the world will respect me Wuzhou!"
Wu Zetian was ambitious. After establishing Wu Zhou, she reused the Wu family's children and abolished the seven temples of Li Tang. In China, she vigorously eliminated dissidents and ensured that the Wu Zhou dynasty was stable. Outside, he often adopted the strategy of being gentle to foreign races, and wanted to create a grand atmosphere of all nations coming to tribute to the country, so Wu Zetian's habit of being very fond of merit was undoubtedly exposed...
Here, I comforted Xue Huaiyi and prepared a feast for all nations. Xue Huaiyi took the errand. When Wu Zetian thought that his Wu family members should show their faces, she immediately asked Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi to follow Xue Huaiyi to do the job. The Wu brothers who had just fought happily met again. The conflict between the two in Luoyang County seemed to have come to an end for a while.
Through the conflict between the two, everyone seemed to have gained benefits from the Luoyang County Government. Yue Feng took office and quickly established a reputation in front of the people. Through differentiation and win over, the two county magistrates fought. He reaped profits, and basically he gained a firm foothold in the Luoyang County Government.
Wei Yuanzhong also benefited a lot. He successfully split the Wu family, and made Wu Sansi never look down on him and took him very seriously. After Wu Sansi made up his mind to cut off his arm, he immediately invited Wei Yuanzhong, and he attached great importance to Wei Yuanzhong in every way, and his attitude was completely different from before.
Of course, Wei Yuanzhong reciprocated and said, "Your Highness King Liang, this time the battle between you and Your Highness King Wei seems to be just a draw, but in fact you have already gained the upper hand!
His Highness, the King of Wei, was originally the left prime minister, and now he lost the position of the left prime minister, which is the first loss. Second, the King of Wei was the most hopeful to become the son-in-law, but recently because of these negative news, his son-in-law has no chance of being the son-in-law. In this way, neither you nor the King of Wei have competed for the son-in-law, which just puts the next battle for the royal heir on the same starting line!"
Wei Yuanzhong smiled and said, "Your Highness King Liang, it's not me, Wei Yuanzhong! His Majesty was repeatedly excluded by ministers in Chang'an. At that time, she almost lived like a year. Yuanzhong was not talented and advised her to come to Dongdu, thus opening up the foundation of the Wuzhou Dynasty!
Now, King Liang, you treat me like this. I can guarantee that King Liang will have an absolute advantage in the fight for success. We must win this battle!"
Wei Yuanzhong said this with great sensation and full of momentum. After listening to it, Wu Sansi was in a good mood. He looked at Wei Yuanzhong with admiration and immediately said:
"Don't worry, Yuanzhong, I trust you, and I will definitely use you when I turn back! Let's stay in Luoyang now. When I take this wave, I will definitely come to His Majesty to give you good words and let Your Majesty reuse you again!"
Wu Sansi showed great sincerity in making such promises. Now he had figured it out that Wei Yuanzhong was Wu Chengsi's mortal enemy. It would be beneficial to him to promote Wei Yuanzhong. Of course he would be willing to do this at this time!
Now the Wu brothers have broken up, and the conflict between the two began to become clear from the dark. At this point, the two sides will inevitably have more and more extensive conflicts. If this is the case, why should they hide it?
