Chapter 63 The Holy Face
Wang Hua was confused, what kind of fairy?I'm a man, don't take me as the Zhang brothers.But with so many people looking at them, send her away quickly.He replied: "I don't want to either. Now the lacquerware is at the critical moment. But His Majesty passed on an order to let me attend this banquet."

"It turned out to be because of this reason. You passed the test. I thought it was because of other reasons. Fortunately, I was not disappointed." As she spoke, she stroked her chest, smiled sweetly, and left slowly.

Wang Hua understood the meaning of her words. He meant that since she stayed in the farm at that time, he didn't let her stay for long. If she came to beg Zhang Yizhi now, she would definitely feel unbalanced and disappointed in her heart. Also get angry.

But miss, you can't speak like this, if you speak vaguely, won't it be easy for people to misunderstand?
Fortunately, I stayed at this angle, and I didn't know the young people next to me. I guess they were no better than me in terms of their clothes.I really guessed pretty well, his angle is basically the unhappy scholars in the Konghe Mansion.

That's it, these scholars also focused their eyes on him, some were puzzled, and some had jealousy in their eyes.

This made Wang Hua feel powerless again.

But at this time, many people stood up, Wang Hua looked up, and two old men walked in.One of them, Wang Hua knew, was one of the three people he met Di Renjie by the river that day.But he doesn't know his name.But now many people started to say hello to both of them.Ji Shilang, Wei Shilang.A flash of inspiration flashed in Wang Hua's mind, and he knew who this old man was, Ji Xu, this man had played an important role in Wu Zetian's court in his later years.

Now Ji Xu has been moved to be the minister of the heavenly official, and he has become the prime minister in the same way.But another old man was still walking ahead of him. Needless to say, besides Di Renjie, the second most influential official in the court at this time was Wei Yuanzhong, Fengge servant and Tongping Zhangshi.These two people are fat and thin, the fat one is Wei Yuanzhong, and the thin one is Ji Xu.But it is also a rare direct minister in the court.

Unexpectedly, these two people also came to this banquet.What a feast, Wang Hua thought with a wry smile.

With the arrival of these two people, Zheng Zhuer finally appeared.

Two father-in-laws carefully held the corners of their clothes, and an old lady walked in, surrounded by thousands of shouts.

She's not too old, at least from the outside, she's only 50 years old, her cheeks are still smeared with fat red, and the most rare thing is that she still has black hair and splayed eyebrows.In fact, this is the most strange thing about her. She used to have white hair, but a few years ago, her black hair suddenly regenerated, and even her teeth grew back. That is to say, according to the current Wu family calendar, in the twelfth lunar month of this year, her eight-character eyebrows will be reborn again. All officials also congratulated him.

Needless to say, this person is Wu Zetian.

Wang Hua glanced secretly. Wu Zetian is 75 years old this year, but her actual age can't be seen at all from her appearance, and she can vaguely see her pretty appearance when she was young from her aging face.

Behind Wu Zetian, stood a female officer, a young woman with a petite pretty face, wearing a red palace attire, also extremely beautiful.And there was a red tree burning between her eyebrows, Wang Hua thought to herself, if it's not bad, this female official must be Shangguan Wan'er.It seems that she is also in her 30s, but there is still no trace of years on her face, she looks like she is only in her twenties.

This young woman is not only beautiful, but also amazingly talented, but she has stayed in the deep palace for a long time. Although she has mastered the power, she was finally lost in the eye of the power. Wang Hua sighed it was a pity.

He turned his gaze to Wu Zetian's left side again. This was also a young woman, but different from Shangguan Wan'er's petite and exquisite appearance, this young woman was born a little rich, with a bun in a bun, looking very capable.But the appearance is very charming and moving, with a Qiong Yao jade nose, piercing eyes, wearing a light yellow silk shirt, which is now half rolled up on the pink arm, revealing the white jade-like pink shoulders.If I didn't guess wrong, this young woman is another romantic figure in the Tang Dynasty, the famous Princess Taiping.

Wu Zetian killed his own daughter because of carrying the spoils of the king and queen, so he seemed to feel apologetic towards Princess Taiping.Throughout his life, Wu Zetian doted on this daughter very much.

In her first marriage, she married Tang Gaozong's nephew, Xue Shao, the second son of Princess Chengyang.The wedding was held at the Wannian County Hall near Chang'an. The scene was very luxurious. The illuminated torches even scorched the trees along the way. In order to allow the large wedding car to pass, the wall of the county hall had to be demolished.Wu Zetian loved her daughter very much. She thought that Xue Shao's sister-in-laws Xiao and Cheng were not of noble background, and wanted to force the Xue family to divorce their wives. Someone persuaded her that Xiao was from the Xiao family of Lanling and not from a poor family, so she gave up this plan.The first marriage was Princess Taiping, but Xue Shao’s brother-in-law Xue Shao was implicated because his elder brother Xue Yi participated in the rebellion of the Tang family Li Chong. Empress Wu Zetian ordered Xue Yi to be executed. in prison.At that time, Princess Taiping was still pregnant with her fourth child with Xue Shao.Afterwards, in order to comfort her daughter, Wu Zetian broke the practice of Princess Tang's food seal of no more than 350 households, and made an exception to increase her household closures to [-] households.

So Princess Tai remarried Wu Youji again. At this time, Princess Taiping had changed her personality because of her first marriage. In addition, Xiaowu was a good old man who was willing to be a turtle hat man. Princess Taiping's life finally became unrestrained.

Wang Hua also saw it. She was accompanied by a middle-aged man in a yellow shirt. If he guessed correctly, it was her husband Wu Youji. weak.What a pity, Wang Hua sighed again.

On the right side of Wu Zetian are two youths. Wang Hua finally understood the reason why Prime Minister Yang Zaisi exaggerated Changzong as a lotus like Liulang.There is such a man in the world!When it comes to beauty, Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er are already considered super-beauties, but compared with these two young people, they are no more than comparable.You know they are a man!Wang Hua reckoned that if they put on a little make-up and dressed up as a woman, they would definitely fascinate countless lechers after going out on the street.

The two brothers were talking to Wu Zetian. It seemed that Wu Zetian was listening very well, with a smile on his face.

Seeing Wu Zetian walk in, all the guests stood up and said, "Long live His Majesty the Divine Emperor."

Wang Hua had no choice but to stand up, but he made a disrespectful gesture, his mouth seemed to be moving, but no sound came out.But at this time, no one paid attention to him.

Wu Zetian waved his hand and said: "My dear friends, please forgive me."

All the guests sat down now, and this was the only thing Wang Hua agreed to. At this time, when meeting officials, even the emperor, there was no need to kneel down at every turn.

Wu Zetian came to the main seat under the guidance of the servants of the Zhang family.

The table at this time was not Wang Hua's big square table in his previous life, or a round table, but a low-leg coffee table, with a slanted corner protruding from both sides.Generally, the longer one can seat two to three people, and the shorter one can only sit one person.A chair might as well be called a bed, and it is not a chair of later generations. It is a bit like a low stool of later generations, but with a wider surface area, and some of them are very long.However, there was also a large table at this time, which was rectangular, but also very short, and was rarely used in formal banquets.

Therefore, such chairs and tables occupy a larger area. There are a lot of guests coming to Zhang's mansion today, and of course most of them are just servants. They are not qualified to sit down.But there are at least two hundred hosts and guests.However, the living room in the Zhang Mansion is also huge and extravagant, almost like a small auditorium.Except for the main seat, which is placed horizontally on the main seat, the other chairs and tables are arranged in eight straight lines, facing the main seat, neatly arranged vertically on both sides of the main seat.

Wu Zetian also came to sit on the main seat. This is a family banquet, and there are not so many complicated etiquettes.

She raised her wine glass and toasted everyone first.

The guests stood up again and saluted.

Most people at this banquet today are still very happy, no matter how reliable this oath is, but there are probably no other changes in the past few years.Of course, the happiest ones are the children of the Li clan, who finally breathed a sigh of relief this time, at least they will no longer live the life of fear before.

But Li Gu'er is very playful, she glanced at Wang Hua who was sitting in a corner, and saw him sitting there like an old monk, a little funny, so she raised her wine glass, meaning I would like to toast you too .

Li Xian's family sat next to Wu Zetian, the crown prince, no matter whether he had the power of that crown prince or not, his status was still the second most noble in the entire Tang Dynasty.

Wu Zetian saw Li Gu'er's little gesture. With the help of countless huge candles lit in the living room, she looked in the direction of Li Gu'er's toast. Sitting on the seat was a young man wearing a rough long gown, but the young man did not feel shy and had a calm expression.

Wu Zetian said, "Well, come here."
