In Guanfeng Hall, more than ten third-rank officials looked at each other. Wu Zetian laughed loudly, saying that it was a small gambling to please her, but no one could laugh at the scene.

Wu Zetian's temperament, how could she summon all the ministers to come here just because of a small gambling? She is an extremely diligent person. This can be said to be impeccable. She has a lot of troubles and time is so precious. Will she be so popular because of a game?

In addition, there are so many ministers present, and they do care about Cuju, but do everyone really pay attention to it because they are good Cuju? Obviously not. Everyone behind the passion of Cuju in Shendu knows the truth. The so-called Cuju is fake, and it is true to create momentum in the name of Cuju. Round after round of persuasion, Wu Zetian approaches the throne step by step. At this time, the time for her last battle with the old minister of Li Tang has come!

Wu Zetian used small gambling to warn some people on the scene not to bet too much, otherwise they might lose all their money and even lose their lives. The scene was full of old foxes, so how could everyone not understand her implicit?

Seeing that everyone was not talking, Wu Zetian said: "Since everyone is good at Cuju! When will the last Cuju competition be held?"

Leader Xu on the side said: "The most recent Cuju match is today. The Southern Ya Imperial Guards are fighting against the Cuju Army in the inner guard, and they are paying great attention!"

Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? There is still a competition for our inner guard Cuju Army today? That's great, today is such a good day, I want to reward all the ministers and let them follow me, let's watch this Cuju competition together!"

After Wu Zetian finished speaking, he immediately ordered someone to prepare a phoenix chasing. Li Zhaode stood up and said, "Empress, although Cuju is good, it is just a game after all. If all our ministers go to watch Cuju today, they may abandon political affairs and will be detrimental to the country and the people!"

Wu Zetian smiled and said, "I know that Li Xiangqinzheng, but there is a way of opening up and relaxing the civil and military. A Cuju can only last for an hour. The delay of this time has made us enjoy together. I think it is worth it! I have decided on this matter, and you can do it all. Why don't you accept my affection?"

Wu Zetian was laughing, but her words had an unquestionable meaning. Everyone dared not object anymore. For a moment, everyone followed Wu Zetian to Mingtang Square.

Mingtang Square today is indeed full again. Wu Zetian's special ball-watching villa was further expanded. Fu Youyi made preparations in advance and set up a couch and a few. The ministers were more than enough to sit down one by one!

The Cuju competition has not yet begun, and the Cuju hands of the two armies are still playing in the Cuju scene. Wu Zetian looked around and said, "Since they are all good Cuju people, today's Cuju must have a lottery! Let's do this, each of you choose one army, and then we bet together, the winner will get the loser's wealth. How about it?"

Wu Chengsi smiled and said, "Okay, Queen, Weichen chose the inner guard Cuju army to win, and is willing to bet on ten taels of gold!"

"Okay! Chengsi has suppressed ten taels of gold, but there are still people who are willing to bet? Li Zhaode, you bet!"

Li Zhaode said: "Since the Wu Prime Minister has suppressed the inner guards, I will suppress the Southern Imperial Guards. At least I will give our Southern Imperial Guards some confidence! I will also suppress the ten taels of gold!"

Li Zhaode and Wu Chengsi are mortal enemies. When they are on the verge of the slightest, the smell of gunpowder will suddenly become stronger. One of them is the left prime minister of Wenchang and the other is the right prime minister, each representing different interests.

Wu Chengsi was the nephew of Empress Wu, so he naturally hugged Wu Zetian's thighs and followed Wu Zetian's horse in everything. Most of the people he won in the court were cruel officials like Zhou Xing and Lai Junchen.

Among the prime ministers, except for the ambiguous Su Wei Dao, there were also a very small number of people including Jia Dayin, who were not very good at dealing with Wu Chengsi.

How could the people who could enter the Fengge Wenchang platform of the Tang Dynasty in Luantai, Fengge, and Wenchang platform of the Tang Dynasty be ordinary people? These people are either talented or have prominent family backgrounds. What is Wu Chengsi? It is just relying on Wu Zetian, the aunt. His real abilities are really despised!

Therefore, Li Zhaode stepped forward to confront Wu Chengsi, and there were many responders immediately. Cen Changqian and Su Liangsi responded quickly and stood on the side of the South Ya Imperial Guard. Then Fan Lubing and Ouyang Tong also stood on the side of Li Zhaode, leaving only Fu Youyi and Zong Qinke.

They wanted to express their opinions, but both of them were new prime ministers and lacked qualifications. Even if they supported Wu Chengsi, Wu Chengsi's side seemed weak.

Su Wei did not offend both sides, and did not suppress power. Zong Qinke also stood in the middle, unbiased.

Wu Zetian watched the scene coldly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. The situation in front of him seemed to be a bet on Cuju, but in fact it means to be politically stalking.

Wu Chengsi naturally stood on Wu Zetian's side, and Li Zhaode obviously wanted to stand on the opposite side. Most of the prime ministers stood on the opposite side. How could Wu Zetian's face ease?

"Old Di Guo, why didn't you express your opinion today?" Wu Zetian looked at Di Renjie. The cunning Di Renjie was also watching coldly. When Wu Zetian asked, he smiled and said:

"Dear Queen, I see which side bets more, so I choose the less side. If I can win, I can make a big profit with a small profit and make more profits, right?"

Wu Zetian laughed and said to Di Renjie: "Old Di Guo is indeed smart. So you want to suppress the inner guard?"

Di Renjie rubbed his hands and said, "I am optimistic about the inner guard, but my financial resources are weak and I can't suppress ten taels of gold. This way, how about I suppress ten taels of money?"

Wu Zetian said: "Good you Di Renjie, you are cheating. Last time everyone told you to win. Today you are crying again. You asked all your beloved ministers to tell me, are you cheating?"

Everyone agreed with Wu Zetian's statement. Di Renjie said bitterly: "Grand Queen, Di has left his hometown and came to the capital. It's not as good as the prime ministers. It's not easy to live in the capital. Di's family is so many people pointing to my salary. If they lose money by gambling and their family will go hungry, wouldn't that make a big joke? The queen's face is not glorious, right?"

Wu Zetian was so amused that he had to wave his hand and said, "Okay, okay, isn't it just ten taels of gold? I've lent you! Go and bet boldly!"

Di Renjie smiled and said, "Thank you, Queen Di, for suppressing the inner guard, Cuju army, will win! Haha, I will make a lot of money again today!"

Di Renjie smiled and was happy. Li Zhaode was very unhappy and said coldly: "Di Guo, don't be happy too early, the outcome depends on..."
