Wang Zheng looked at the Kongming lanterns flying southeast and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Wang Ping'an still did not come back to celebrate the New Year this year. Although it was his own request, he still felt a little disappointed at this moment.

In that era, transportation was slow, and a long journey of two or three months would be wasted on the road. This was only one reason. The most important reason was that Wang Zheng did not want his son to be involved in the affairs of the royal family.

Even disciples of Liu Zheng's level would be plotted against by others, and people like Ping An would easily become targets of others' plots, and most of the time they were simply unable to guard against them.

The increasingly tense relationship between Li Xian and Wu Zetian and the increasingly impatient behavior of many ministers in the court made Wang Zheng very upset, but he could do nothing.

Because no one would listen to him, not to mention the powerful Wu Zetian and those greedy ministers, even Li Xian, his disciple, was becoming more and more perfunctory towards Wang Zheng's suggestions, and was almost at the point of having a rebellious heart . The ministers hoped that Wang Zheng would try not to speak, and it would be best if he did not even go to the court as before, and continued to be in a state of retreat.

Wu Zetian's attitude towards Wang Zheng was indifferent, while Li Zhi was ambiguous, as if he didn't care about anything.

Luo Xiaomei sighed. She had never cared about the affairs in the court. After all, Wang Zheng had already handled everything, and she only had to take care of the family.

"Our Majesty is extremely bored!"

Before falling asleep, Wang Zheng made a decision to stop paying attention to what was happening in the court and let them decide the outcome on their own. This way, he would have fewer worries.

After drinking a few glasses of low-alcohol sake, Wang Zheng felt dizzy. Then he went back to his room to rest. His days were as boring as ever.

That is to say, when Wang Zheng had nothing to do, he would explain to Luo Xiaomei why Ping An did not come back, which allowed Luo Xiaomei to have some understanding of the affairs of the court.

Xu Jingzong smiled and said, "Since Your Majesty wants to see Your Majesty cry, then Your Majesty should cooperate. It would be a good opportunity to clean up some guys. Killing the chicken to scare the monkey will always make the court quiet for a while.

After Shangguan Yi persuaded him for a long time, Li Zhi finally agreed with helplessness.

The current level of development of the Tang Dynasty has, in the eyes of many, already entered a period of prosperity. Now that it is invincible, it is time to distribute the benefits, but also a time to kill each other.

Hotpot is just a street dish, and non-spicy Sichuan cuisine is the real banquet dish.

Wang Zheng was not a wine lover, he usually just took a sip, but now he took up the glass and drank it all in one gulp. Luo Xiaomei then poured Wang Zheng another glass, "Eat some food first."

After the Lantern Festival, Wang Zheng no longer attended court. Without Wang Zheng's mediation, the situation in the court became even more tense.

There are already enough delicious foods, and as for chili pepper, it is actually not that important. The most authentic Sichuan cuisine is actually not spicy.

Hearing Wang Zheng's words, a trace of joy flashed across Luo Xiaomei's face, and then she asked with some concern: "The situation in the court is delicate right now, and the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Queen is tense. Is it okay to come back safely?"

In fact, after the Han Dynasty, China had a rich variety of vegetables, fruits and melons, and high-yield crops included taro and sorghum. Generally speaking, the difference from later generations was not that big.

"Let Ping An come back to celebrate the New Year next year."

After all, it is not a good idea to keep going on like this. The chief steward is even unwilling to come to the court. Although the chief steward rarely speaks, as long as he sits in the court, he will always give some advice. "

The palace had no secrets for some people, and among them, Wu Zetian could definitely know everything as long as Li Zhi did not deliberately stop her.

Li Zhi saw a smile flashing in Shangguan Yi's eyes and also agreed on the spot, but he said that he was ill and asked Shangguan Yi to write the decree himself, and then Li Zhi would use the seal.

Wang Zheng felt somewhat relieved to see his daughter maturing day by day. Although Xiao Yuehua still had many problems, she had learned to get along with others after all. She was not a bad person by nature, so her future life would not be too bad.

Shangguan Yi was worried, so he asked Li Zhi to sign the decree to depose the queen on the spot, intending to get the matter done right away.

Luo Xiaomei poured a glass of sake for Wang Zheng and said with a smile: "It's New Year's Day, brother, drink a little more, and you will sleep more soundly at night."

When Wu Zetian learned that Shangguan Yi was planning to depose the queen, she immediately got the news. When she learned that Li Zhi agreed, Wu Zetian could only smile bitterly, sighed and said to Xu Jingzong who was sitting opposite her.

After releasing the Kongming lantern, Xiao Yuehua went straight back to her room to sleep. Staying up all night to celebrate the New Year was out of the question for her, mainly because the little one was exhausted from working in the greenhouse these days.

However, Wu Zetian was as aggressive as ever, forcing the aristocratic families surrounding Li Xian to feel suffocated. Finally, Shangguan Yi proposed to Li Zhi to depose the queen before the Qingming Festival, on the grounds that the queen was too domineering.

Shangguan Yi was naturally happy to be willing to write for him.

Wang Zheng smiled and said, "I think that no matter what, I can always protect my family. At most, I will not care about the affairs in the court. If they want to make trouble, let them make trouble. After all, it will be fine if there is a winner.

As Luo Xiaomei was talking, she also drank a cup. Wang Zheng smiled, picked up a crispy pea and put it in his mouth to chew, and then ate some other dishes.

Wu Zetian nodded and said helplessly: "Alright, since your majesty is so interested, then I can only cooperate. This time I must beat those guys up so hard that they will hurt, otherwise I will be sorry for my tears."

Just when Shangguan Yi was about to finish writing the document, a voice saying "The Queen has arrived" frightened Shangguan Yi so much that he shivered. A drop of thick ink fell on the document and condensed on it, which was very dazzling.

After Wu Zetian came in and paid her respects, she picked up Shangguan Yi's document and took a look at it. The more she looked at it, the uglier her expression became.

Shangguan Yi on the side was also terrified. At this moment, he could only pray that Li Zhi was strong enough. As long as Li Zhi could stand up, Wu Zetian, the queen, would not be able to cause any trouble. After all, Wu Zetian was only Li Zhi's secretary.

Unfortunately, Shangguan Yi will only be disappointed in the end.
