Chapter 437: Offering Beauty


Yang Fan ignored Wu Chengsi's greetings in advance, in Wu Chengsi's opinion, this was Yang Fan's clear statement that he wanted to stand on Wu Sansi's side, but only that, he also had to return the benefits, not to mention that his general Pan Ziwen fell because of this, and Wu Chengsi hated Yang Fan even more.

However, Wu Chengsi was not stupid enough to immediately return the favor to Yang Fan, Yang Fan was in the limelight after this case, and it was obvious that the emperor was also protecting him, and at this time the counterattack outweighed the loss, Wu Chengsi had to suppress the anger in his heart, temporarily put Yang Fan aside, and continued to arrange his plan to invite pets.

This plan was planned as early as when the crown prince Li Dan fell out of favor, and he and Zhang Jiafu, the person of the Wind Pavilion, began to plan.

It is not easy for him to invite Wu Zetian to pet, the empress is already rich in the world, what else can touch the heart of the empress Wu Chengsi thought about it and felt that he could only start from the "name".

In order to create momentum for Wu Zetian's ascension to the throne, Wu Chengsi once forged a "Rui Stone", engraved on it with the eight characters of "Our Lady of the People, Yongchang Emperor", first threw it into Luoshui, and then asked someone to salvage it and dedicate it to Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian was really overjoyed, sealed the Luo River as a sacred water, banned fishing, and added the honorific title "Our Lady God Emperor" to himself.

This is the first time that Wu Chengsi has tried to make a big fuss about "fame", and he has also benefited a lot.

The reason why Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi stood out among the many sons and nephews of the Wu family and became the most powerful candidates for the crown prince was precisely because in the process of Wu Zetian's ascension to the throne, these two people contributed the most.

Now, in order to seize the position of the crown prince, Wu Chenghei has repeated his old skills.

In the season when osmanthus flowers are in full bloom and the city is full of fragrance, a petition signed by 5,000 people in Luoyang respectfully asks the emperor to add the honorific title of "Golden Wheel".

Since Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he has changed from the Holy Mother of God to the Holy Spirit Emperor.

Now, Wu Chenghe, under the pretense of public opinion, respectfully asks the emperor to add the word golden wheel in front of the four characters of the Holy Spirit Emperor.

Wu Zetian gladly accepted, so he gave himself the title of honorific and became the "Golden Wheel Holy Spirit Emperor" Wu Sansi didn't dare to slack off when he saw this, after the prince fell out of favor, his strategy was to fix his favor, and he had been preparing for this matter.

Soon, the Siyi chieftains, whom he had already begun to contact, rushed to the capital, including the Western Turk Khan Ashina Husero.

Wu Sansi led the Siyi chieftains to meet the Son of Heaven with great fanfare, asking the emperor to allow them to build a huge pillar made of copper and iron, called "Tianshu", outside the Duanmen, in order to praise the great achievements of the female emperor.

Wu Zetian has always been very happy, so he naturally agreed, and handed over the matter to Wu Sansi to be responsible.

As soon as Wu Chengsi saw that Wu Sansi had more benefits than himself, he was willing to give up, he immediately gathered thousands of people in Luoyang, and went to Zetianmen again to petition, asking the emperor to add the word "Yuegu" to the honorific title of "Golden Wheel Holy Spirit Emperor", called "Yue Ancient Golden Wheel Holy Spirit Emperor" The honorific name of this thing, that is, the more the merrier, Wu Zetian Tianlong Yan Dayue, once again from the good flow.

Seeing this scene, Wu Sansi hurriedly discussed with his five dogs, and asked the emperor again for permission to build Sanyang Palace in Songshan and Xingtai Palace in Wanshou Mountain for the empress to use during her parade.

Wu Zetian agreed, and these two projects were also handed over to Wu Sansi.

The battle between Yang Fan and Chen Dong for power and profit in the Criminal Department was limited to the open and secret struggle between the two.

The three law divisions want to compete for superiority, but they are just using the case to make a fuss, and the battle between Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi at this level is different, as soon as he waved his hand, the emperor's honorific title changed, and there was a big building, and a magnificent building rose from the ground, which was a great supernatural power.

Wu Chengsi gave the emperor two honorific titles, and Wu Sansi won three major projects.

It is easier to have a honorific title, the emperor only needs to make a ceremony and add a honorific title to himself, but the giant pillar and the palace are not, it is a protracted and large project, and it takes a lot of money.

Wu Zetian has always liked the feeling of tall and gorgeous architecture, and her construction of "Ming Hall", "Heaven" and "Lushena Buddha" all reflect her preference.

Wu Sansi wants to build giant pillars and palaces, of course, to cater to Wu Zetian's preferences.

According to his design, this bronze pillar called "Tianshu", with a diameter of ten feet and a height of one hundred and five feet, is engraved on it with a dragon unicorn, and then the article praising the merits of the female emperor is engraved on it, and the names of hundreds of military officials and monarchs of the Quartet are engraved.

The amount of copper and iron consumed by such a copper pillar is too great.

Wu Sansi received a donation of hundreds of millions of dollars from the Siyi chieftain and the Hu Shang giant, but so much money could not buy enough copper and iron, and the output of copper and iron could not be supplied.

As for the construction of Sanyang Palace and Xingtai Palace, a large number of civil servants should also be requisitioned, and the consumption is naturally incalculable, so that the people sigh and the people's grievances boil.

However, these things of the people could not reach Wu Zetian's ears, and no one dared to risk offending Wu Sansi or even the empress to impeach this matter.

Seeing that Wu Sansi was in full swing, Wu Chengsi couldn't sit still.

After his honorific title was offered, there was no business for him, but what Wu Sansi did could not be completed in a year and a half, and the empress looked at it every day, would she feel that Wu Sansi was more filial than him Wu Chengsi thought about it, and came up with a way, he decided to do his best to help Wu Zetian do what he wanted to do but didn't do to help her, so as to invite Wu Zetian, this thing is: Zen Huineng Zen Master or Shenxiu Zen Master of Zen Buddhism to come to the capital and live here for a long time.

Although Wu Zetian has a strong personality and is domineering, he is not without awe.

She believes in reincarnation and respects Buddhism.

When she ascended the throne, she had invited the sixth ancestor Huineng to participate in her enthronement ceremony, Huineng Zen Master did not come, although his senior brother Shenxiu Zen Master came, he also refused Wu Zetian's retention after the ceremony, and returned to Dangyang Yuquan Temple.

The reason why Huineng didn't come and why Shenxiu left was because Wu Zetian became an emperor as a woman, which is an unprecedented thing, and it contains great risks.

Although Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism, which was an excellent opportunity for Buddhism, which had been suppressed by Taoism since Li Tang, to promote Buddhism, they were afraid that once Buddhism became a weapon in the empress's political struggle, the empress's defeat would bring a heavy blow to Buddhism, so they were reluctant to get too involved.

Wu Chengsi pondered, if it is decided today, the empress's country is sitting steadily, presumably these two Buddhist masters will change their minds, as long as one of them can be invited to live in Luoyang, the empress worships the Buddha every day, and asks for Buddhism, naturally he will not forget that this is his credit, so he immediately raised it.

Realm, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi, the two nephews, scramble to pat their aunt's sycophants, which is something that Feng Xihui, who is the best at patting sycophants in the Criminal Department, can't catch up.

In order to win the crown prince, Wu Chengsi was extremely concerned about the spiritual life of the empress, and made a big fuss about "fame" and "faith".

In order to prevent them from fighting for the crown prince, Princess Taiping also took great pains.

Wu Zetian's two nephews are dedicated to fame and the other to the house, and Princess Taiping has only one means to use: to offer beauties Jishan Fang is the closest square to the palace in Luoyang City, and the palace is across the Luoshui River.

It is not only close to Luoshui, with beautiful scenery, but also close to the inner garden of the imperial palace, so it is the best place for the rich and officials of Luoyang to live.

On the day of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the cruel gourmets of the three beautiful women that Princess Taiping and Yang Fan saw on Dingding Street lived in Jishanfang.

According to their age, the three teenagers are called Zhang Yizhi, Zhang Changzong, and Zhang Changyi.

In the ranking of the Zhang family brothers, Zhang Yizhi is the fifth, Zhang Changzong is the sixth, and Zhang Changyi is the seventh, they are all the grandsons of Zhang Xingcheng, the prime minister of the early Tang Dynasty, and the descendants of the prime minister are naturally the children of the family.

Now Zhang Yizhi has reached the age of 20, relying on the merits of his ancestors, Yin Bu is the Shangcheng Fengyu, this official has no real position, just a loose official who receives a fortune.

Zhang Changzong and Zhang Changyi are his cousins, and because they are not yet twenty years old, they are not yet official.

Prime Minister Zhang Xingcheng was also a big man back then, but it has declined to his grandchildren.

There are no real power figures in this generation of Zhang's descendants, although the Zhang brothers usually make friends with many children of the family, but in the high-ranking Jishanfang, their family is far from prominent.

Princess Taiping was a little embarrassed after inquiring about their identities and origins.

After seeing the beauty of these three brothers, especially Zhang Changzong's Shuli You Sheng Momei, Princess Taiping moved her mind.

At present, the position of the crown prince is about to be guaranteed, but her prince brother has nothing to do, and the little bit of heart and eye left is all used to save his life.

Li Xian, the royal brother of Fangzhou, was even more incompetent, as long as he heard that the emperor had sent an envoy into Fangzhou, he was afraid that it was someone sent by his mother to kill him, and he was worried that he would be abused when he died, so he immediately wanted to hang himself.

The last bit of fire in the Li Tang clan is about to perish, but the two brothers can't count on it, and she has a daughter's family, but she can only provoke this matter.

Although she was worried about the current situation, there was nothing she could do in front of her domineering mother.

It wasn't until she saw Zhang Changzong, a demon, that she thought of an idea: If she could take this Zhang Changzong as an arm and dedicate him to the mother emperor, would it have an impact on the mother emperor She is a daughter, but she has to choose a face for her mother, and she is inevitably unbearable, but Wu Zetian has already had Xue Huaiyi and Shen Taiyi, and there is still one Zhang Changzong Princess Taiping can no longer make Li Tang's last bloodline have a way to live according to the normal way.

However, after inquiring about the identity of this person, Princess Taiping felt that it was a little difficult for her plan to be implemented.

Zhang Changzong is a famous family, with fine clothes and food, a worry-free life, plus a beautiful face and a prosperous life, ask him to serve an old woman with goosebumps, is he willing Of course, the empress can get supreme power and wealth, and some men don't care about her age.

For example, Song Zhiwen, a talented man with a great reputation for poetry, once took the initiative to signal to the empress that he was willing to be the first face.

It's a pity that although he is personable and talented, he has a bad breath problem, which is hated by the empress.

In order to gain power, will this Zhang Changzong serve the empress as a young man Even if he is greedy for power and is willing to serve the empress, is he willing to serve the declining Li Tang and be the enemy of the Wu clan Princess Qianjin offered Xue Huaiyi to Wu Zetian, but after Xue Huaiyi gained power, she immediately got rid of Princess Qianjin, and Princess Qianjin didn't instruct him to move at all.

Thinking of this, Princess Taiping did not act rashly, she had to make sure that this person could be used by her first.

After some investigation, she found that among the several families adjacent to the Zhang family's mansion, one family was Wang Wu of Huiji County, so she thought about it.
