Chapter 104: More interesting than taking a direct approach?
"You are threatening me. I have countless elite soldiers and generals in the Tang Dynasty. Can't I find someone who can replace you?"
Wu Zetian sneered and said sarcastically.
"Your Majesty naturally knows whether there is a more suitable candidate than me."
"Your Majesty's lips are so delicious..."
Jiang Mingche smacked his lips, looking reluctant to leave, as if he was recalling the taste of Wu Zetian's sweet lips.
"You...you're a pervert."
Wu Zetian was furious at Jiang Mingche's behavior. She stretched out her delicate hand and pointed at Jiang Mingche with some trembling.
Shuangxia's face also turned slightly red, and she felt both shy and angry.
But unfortunately, she had no way to deal with Jiang Mingche, the traitor.
This made Wu Zetian feel depressed. She had never felt so powerless in all the years since she ascended the throne.
Just as Jiang Mingche himself said, if she rashly removed Jiang Mingche from his position, she really wouldn't be able to find another person to replace him.
"Your Majesty, why don't you just obey me? Wouldn't it be wonderful if I could manage the Tang Dynasty with you?"
Jiang Mingche grabbed Wu Zetian's slender hands and said in a teasing tone.
A pair of big hands kept stroking Wu Zetian's small hands, feeling the extremely delicate touch of Wu Zetian's small hands.
"You are dreaming. How could I commit myself to you? I advise you to give up this unrealistic idea as soon as possible. Let me go." Wu Zetian said in a cold tone.
She wanted to pull her little hand back from Jiang Che's hand, but no matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free from Jiang Mingche's big hand.
Although she had to admit that Jiang Mingche was a perfect man, with no faults in any aspect, Wu Zetian only had ambitions in mind, not love.
And if she really gave herself to Jiang Mingche, her image as the empress would be completely ruined.
After all, in the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, she was the supreme and unrivaled empress who treated any man with disrespect.
"I just like your Majesty's extremely arrogant look..."
"The more Your Majesty resists, the more excited I become..."
Jiang Mingche walked to Wu Zetian's side, took a deep breath at Wu Zetian's white and delicate neck, and blew air continuously into her pink and delicate ears.
You can tell a woman by her scent. Wu Zetian has a floral fragrance that Jiang Mingche can't describe. One sniff of it makes people intoxicated.
"you......"
Wu Zetian's earlobes suddenly turned red, and the tender pink earlobes became a little soft, as if showing the owner's shyness.
Wu Zetian trembled all over, and even her cheeks turned red.
Her first kiss was taken away, her earlobe was blown. It was the first time for Wu Zetian to have such an intimate behavior with the opposite sex.
While feeling angry and ashamed, Wu Zetian also felt a new feeling in her heart. She felt a tingling sensation all over her body...
"Your Majesty, why don't you just obey me... I have a way to restore your majesty to the peak of his power..."
After letting go of Wu Zetian's soft little hand, Jiang Mingche directly offered a condition that Wu Zetian could not refuse.
"Do you really have a way to help me recover to my peak strength?" After hearing Jiang Mingche's words, Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment and asked suspiciously.
If someone says this, she will just think that the other person is deliberately deceiving her.
But Jiang Mingche might have something that can help him recover. After all, this man has always been extremely mysterious.
Wu Zetian has been in contact with Jiang Mingche for more than half a year, but she has never seen all the secrets of Jiang Mingche.
As she spent more and more time with Jiang Mingche, she realized more and more that what this man showed was only the tip of the iceberg of his own strength.
Because of Jiang Mingche's words, even Wu Zetian's anger faded a lot.
If Jiang Mingche really had a way to help her recover to her peak strength, she wouldn't mind exempting Jiang Mingche from the punishment for his disrespect to her.
"How dare I deceive Your Majesty? That is the crime of deceiving the emperor..." Jiang Mingche shook his head, his face very serious.
He did not deliberately deceive Wu Zetian. He did have a way to help Wu Zetian regain her strength.
The reason why Wu Zetian's strength plummeted directly from the peak of Star Glory to Diamond II was mainly because this woman took great pains to seal the ancient demon Jiang Ziya and sealed Jiang Ziya in a Yin-Yang Bagua formation.
Jiang Ziya was Wu Zetian's mentor. Jiang Mingche had no idea what grudge there was between the two, why Wu Zetian wanted to seal Jiang Ziya, and where she sealed Jiang Ziya.
After Wu Zetian sealed Jiang Ziya, her own magic power plummeted. It would take a long time to recover if she wanted to return to the peak of Xingyao.
But this is nothing to Jiang Mingche. Wu Zetian is recovering her former strength, which is different from cultivation.
As long as he refined a seventh-grade elixir that could restore qi, blood, and spirit and let Wu Zetian take it, this woman's cultivation would be restored to its peak in an instant.
"As long as you help me recover to the peak of Star Glory, I will forgive you this crime of disrespect. How about that?"
Seeing Jiang Mingche's confident look, Wu Zetian suppressed her inner excitement and spoke out.
"Your Majesty... There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world... Wouldn't it be a loss for me to do this? I don't know how much effort I will have to spend to refine a pill that can help Your Majesty recover his strength."
Jiang Mingche shook his head and denied Wu Zetian's words without even thinking about it.
He was sure that this woman was just pretending and couldn't do anything to him.
And even if Wu Zetian really wanted to do something to him, Jiang Mingche was not afraid of her.
"So what do you want? Apart from that, I can promise you everything else."
Wu Zetian frowned and groaned. She could see that Jiang Mingche had no respect for her at all.
Even if I give orders to the other party using my status as an empress, the other party will definitely not listen to me.
If she wants Jiang Mingche to help her now, she can only offer equivalent conditions in exchange.
This made Wu Zetian feel inexplicably sad. She had to make equal conditions to her ministers when she made demands?
She is the only one who can be an emperor to this extent. I am afraid there is no other emperor like her in the whole world...
"Apart from this, I don't want anything else." Jiang Mingche shook his head and said with some lack of interest.
He also knew that there was no way Wu Zetian would agree to his request, and he just wanted to tease this proud empress.
"Regent, please don't go too far." Wu Zetian narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Mingche angrily.
She had given Jiang Mingche a way out, but she didn't expect this guy to be so ungrateful.
In Wu Zetian's view, Jiang Mingche was forcing her to compromise.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. How dare I bully you? Your Majesty is a supreme ruler. I don't have the guts to do that."
"Don't you have the guts?" Wu Zetian sneered, showing disdain for Jiang Mingche's words.
Without the guts, you dare to come up and forcefully kiss me? Jiang Mingche is the most daring person Wu Zetian has ever seen, bar none.
"Since Your Majesty does not agree, then forget it... I still have some miscellaneous matters to take care of, so I'll take my leave first..."
Jiang Mingche sighed, looking extremely regretful. After getting up from his seat, he planned to leave immediately.
Wu Zetian was an unrivaled empress. If she really agreed to me at once, then there would be something fishy going on.
Jiang Mingche was not in a hurry. Anyway, he would stay in Chang'an City for a long time and had plenty of time to play with Wu Zetian.
Slowly training this stunning empress and making her kneel down and sing "Conquest", isn't this more interesting than just using force?
In front of others, Wu Zetian is the high and mighty empress... but in front of me... hum... "Wait."
Looking at Jiang Mingche's departing back, Wu Zetian directly called out to him.
Wu Zetian gritted her teeth in anger at Jiang Mingche's unreasonable request.
I didn't expect that I had actually raised such an ungrateful person.
She is not capable of exchanging her innocence for a pill that can restore her strength.
"Your Majesty, is there anything else?" Jiang Mingche stopped, turned to look at Wu Zetian, and asked with a faint smile.
"I called you here this time because I have something to tell you."
Suppressing her inner anger, Wu Zetian took a deep breath and spoke with a cold face.
Just as Jiang Mingche himself said, she really couldn't do anything to Jiang Mingche now.
Jiang Mingche's identity as General Tiance has penetrated into everyone's heart, and he is also very loved by the people of the Tang Dynasty. His prestige in the army is even higher than her, the emperor.
In the court, because of his status as regent, civil and military officials have always been trying to curry favor with Jiang Mingche.
Even Sikong Zhen would jump out from time to time to say a few good words for Jiang Mingche.
There was a reason why Jiang Mingche dared to tease me so unscrupulously.
Unexpectedly, this guy's followers have infiltrated the court and the three armies without anyone noticing.
It goes without saying that Wu Zetian knew that if she removed Jiang Mingche from his position and title at this time, a large group of people would definitely stand up to oppose her.
The first to bear the brunt were Cheng Yaojin and Sikong Zhen. Cheng Yaojin's interests were tied to Jiang Mingche, which Wu Zetian could understand.
But when did Sikong Zhen and Jiang Mingche become so close? This made Wu Zetian very confused.
She also had spies in Chang'an City monitoring the officials, but she had never heard of Jiang Mingche and Sikong Zhen having a private gathering.
What Wu Zetian didn't know was that when she took back the mechanism magic core and handed it over to Sikong Zhen last time, she specifically mentioned that she took back the mechanism magic core because of Jiang Mingche's advice.
After saying this in front of all the civil and military officials, Sikong Zhen instinctively believed that Wu Zetian's willingness to take back the mechanism magic core was all due to Jiang Mingche alone.
Sikong Zhen clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment, and had long kept Jiang Mingche's kindness in his heart.
So every time he went to court, he would stand up from time to time to speak well of Jiang Mingche... Wu Zetian's actions directly helped Jiang Mingche...
