Since the Qin and Han dynasties, with the prosperity of the powerful and gentry, a group of people familiar with the classics and history have controlled all aspects of the court and the local government.

However, there are certainly many talented people who are familiar with the classics and history, but most of them are only good at talking in the end. Even if a few capable ministers occasionally appear, their abilities are reflected in their decision-making.

As for the real operation of the governing house, to some extent, it depends on the officials from the middle and lower classes, who are the local controllers.

Wu Sansi gradually felt relieved after hearing Wu Long's words. However, the face Qin Shaoyou just gave him was really terrible, which made him feel scared. Although he was already disloyal with Qin Shaoyou and didn't care about offending this guy, Wu Sansi even thought of using this person as a stepping stone, but Wu Sansi still felt a little scared.

He finally understood the reason for his fear. What he was afraid of was not Qin Shaoyou, but Shen Ce Army. So after thinking about it, he decided to look for Wei Zhengde, the leader of the Luoyang Imperial Army.

Empress Wei made many arrangements in Henan Prefecture. Although there was a Wu Sansi in Henan Prefecture, the remaining imperial guards also arranged this Wei family's relatives. Wei Zhengde was just a small state Sima and an inconspicuous military officer. However, after Empress Wei took over power, he immediately ascended to heaven. He was different from the Wu family. When the Wu family controlled the imperial guards, the conflict between Li and Wu had already become clear. Among the imperial guards, there were many military officers who supported the Li family, so although there were many Wu clans who controlled the imperial guards, the effect was not very good.

Now, the Wei family is the Li family, and the Li family is also the Wei family. As long as the Wei family does not sit in the emperor for a day, the relationship with the emperor will always be like lacquer and inseparable. Naturally, anyone from the Wei family is regarded as the object of clinging to the imperial guards. As long as they are favored by the Wei family, they will have great future prospects.

Although Wei Zhengde was just a little Sima, his life is much happier than the Wu clan who controlled the imperial guards at the time. Of course, he knew his responsibilities and had been secretly guarding against the Shen Ce Army.

There were only more than 17,000 imperial guards left behind, and the number was actually not small. After all, although the Shence Army was repeatedly expanded at this time, it was nominally known as ten thousand people, but in fact it was only seven or eight thousand. The imperial guards were also elite soldiers after all, and they were guarding Luoyang Palace. It had a great relationship, which was also why Wu Sansi was dependent on Wei Zhengde.

Wei Zhengde was on duty in the outer palace. When he heard that Wu Sansi was coming, he was quite polite and welcomed him in person.

The Luoyang Palace is completely different from the Forbidden City in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with the dominance of imperial power, the palace became an inviolable symbol. Except for a very small number of important officials who needed to join the foreign dynasty on duty, the rest of the people were not allowed to be ordered or even cross the line.

Although the inner garden of Luoyang Palace is very strict, the outer court is relatively open. All officials wearing goldfish bags have the right to enter the palace, and of course, it is only limited to the outer court.

Now there is no master in the palace, and the emperor is sick again. Wei Zhengde lives a good life and cleans up a side hall in the court for office use. When he saw Wu Sansi, he grinned and said, "Your Highness Liang, isn't this day the day when Qin Shaoyou takes office? Why are you here?"

Wu Sansi had no intention of greetings and directly told the truth about today.

Wei Zhengde frowned and sneered: "So, Qin Shaoyou treats the canal as his lifeblood. He hits the snake and hits seven inches. The Empress asks you and me to guard here, and the intention is self-evident. In short, it is impossible to let Qin Shaoyou completely get involved in Henan Prefecture. In fact, we don't have to worry about anything we do, especially His Highness Liang."

Wei Zhengde's skill in speaking was to put Wu Sansi in a unique look.

What is there to be afraid of when you are Wu Sansi? If you are the official of the court, you are still His Highness King Liang. It’s a huge matter. Even if you really make Qin Shaoyou angry, so what? No matter how bold Qin Shaoyou is, will you dare to touch a hair? Even if you violate the laws of heaven, it is still a matter of the court to deal with it. Although Qin Shaoyou is the chief supervisor, he can’t do anything to you. So how can you disgust Qin Shaoyou? Do it just to do your best. Qin Shaoyou is not arrogant and domineering, but he dare not do some things. After all, Wu Sansi represents the court, and your status is extremely honorable.

, Empress Wei means that it is to use your identity to make things difficult for Qin Shaoyou? Qin Shaoyou is not a fool. Will he dare to touch you? Once he moves, no matter what your crime is, it doesn't matter, but it just gives Empress Wei a justification. Even the emperor will never indulge Qin Shaoyou anymore, because the prince's emperor is to rebel and commit a serious crime. The court will never tolerate him. At that time, there will be an imperial guard inside, and there will be hundreds of thousands of troops and horses in the east Guanzhong who suppress the rebellion. As long as there is an order, no matter what kind of Shenjian army Qin Shaoyou has, it will still be crushed into powder.

Thinking back at the time, everyone was afraid of the Shen Ce Army because the court was in Luoyang. Once something happened, he was afraid that the Shen Ce Army would not be anxious to respond immediately. Therefore, Empress Wei was extremely afraid of Qin Shaoyou. Now, although the Shen Ce Army is powerful, he is trapped in Henan Prefecture. Once his Majesty dares to commit a rash decree, his Majesty will all die without a place to die.

So... Qin Shaoyou will only create a false statement to Queen Wei to deal with him unless he is a fool. After all, this guy is now sympathized by the emperor. There are still a large number of Guanzhong people in the court talking to him. Therefore, no one dares to do anything to him without a foregone conclusion. But if he touches you, Your Highness King Liang, is different from the prefect of Henan. If you touch a hair, you have to repay the blood of thousands of people.

This is why, the prefect of Henan is Wu Sansi, not others.

Wei Zhengde looked at Wu Sansi with a smile. Although he didn't say it out loud, he smiled so much that Wu Sansi should understand this truth.

Qin Shaoyou dared not do anything unless he was confused.

But if he was really confused, it would be even more wonderful. Even if he sacrificed one Wu Sansi, he would be given an excuse to suppress the rebellion. With this excuse, the Shen Ce Mansion could be uprooted.

Wu Sansi's face was blue and red. He could hear the implicit sound. Although he was sure that Qin Shaoyou should not be confused, but the Wei family clearly used itself as bait.

Wu Sansi had no choice but to say, "Although that's the case, it's better to be in case. I have already told people to destroy the river construction matters. I guess there will be no mistakes. But when things are really urgent, I will borrow the palace to avoid it." This is Wu Sansi's idea, which has aroused Qin Shaoyou. If it really causes any consequences, of course, it is to leave a way out for himself.

Wei Zhengde nodded naturally and said, "This is easy to deal with, but please rest assured that I have figured out Qin Shaoyou's path. He is just a fierce and evil person on the surface. Look at his way up the sky, and he was not in a position to endure it when Cain was to endure it. Otherwise, he, a little chef, would have died without a place to be buried."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Wei Zhengde comforted Wu Sansi for a long time, and then Wu Sansi gradually felt relieved. He thought to himself, Wei Zhengde was right, Qin Shaoyou did not have the courage, so he dared not touch him. At most, he would just ask the court to deal with it. But what would he do if the court and himself were wearing a pair of pants?

So he calmed down his bad mood. Since he came to the palace, Wei Zhengde said, "Your Highness, the emperor is in the inner palace. I don't know what the situation is. After all, we are just a warrior and dare not inquire. You are the emperor's nephew. Since you are here, you must go to visit one or two, and you can also explore the truth. To be honest, Qin Shaoyou is actually easy to deal with. He relies on the army of seven or eight thousand Shen Ce. It's just a pity that the emperor and the empress are not in Luoyang. If he is on the side of the emperor, he may still have concerns about him. Now... hehe... but it's just for the time being that he is rampant for a while, but this emperor. In fact, the empress and even the emperor have always been uneasy. Before leaving, they repeatedly reminded him to be careful, the emperor is very human..."

Wu Sansi had no intention of meeting the aunt, and Wei Zhengde encouraged him, but he did not dare to neglect him, so he had to respond.

After calming down, he went to Ziwei Palace and first asked for a meeting. After a while, Shangguan Wan'er actually moved her lotus feet in person. Shangguan Wan'er was dressed in plain clothes, which was the outfit she accompanied Wu Zetian to Mingtang. Wu Sansi was suspicious and couldn't help thinking, Shanghuang had gone to Mingtang? In this way, her illness was cured. Didn't she say that she couldn't get off the bed before?

Wu Sansi and Shangguan Wan'er were very familiar with each other. When they saw Wan'er, they hurriedly tried to smile: "Shangguan Kaizhao accompanied Shanghuang to Mingtang again?"

Shangguan Wan'er looked haggard, but shook her head and said, "Your Highness should not call the official as the official. The official is just an ordinary female official. It is no longer an official. The emperor is seriously ill. How could he go to Mingtang? But her body is getting worse and worse, so she ordered the official to ask for Buddha and protect the emperor's safety. After the emperor was seriously ill, His Majesty went to Chang'an again. She was worried that there was no one around her. Since Your Highness is here, it's so good. The Emperor is very happy. Let's ask His Highness King Liang to say a few words to the Empress."

Wu Sansi finally breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was that Wu Zetian was cheating on illness. Once he cheated on illness, he would have plans. Now it seems that he was too careless.
