Empress Reborn

"Ayue is back, come closer and let Aye take a look." Li Zhi, who was above the main seat, beckoned and called his little daughter over. He missed his daughter very much after not seeing him for nearly a year.

Li Lingyue responded lightly, walked forward with a smile on her face, and stopped when she was an inch away from the short table.At such a close distance, Li Zhixu could only see a blur with his eyes suddenly, but Empress Wu who was beside him watched his daughter carefully, and praised with a smile: "My son has grown taller!"

Li Lingyue bowed her head in return, and seeing her father like this made her feel a little uncomfortable. In her impression, Li Zhi had always been a kind person, he treated her very well, almost responded to every request, and was a competent and good father.She thought of her father's kindness, and always regarded herself as the Li family. Even though she later changed her surname to Wu because of her mother's ascension to the throne, she still protected the Li family.But what did the Li family do?

Seventh brother is okay, Seventh brother is just incompetent, conniving at his wife to oppress her.As for myna, myna relied on her to sit on the throne. Although he was kind to her every day, when he met his son, he couldn't help but be biased.Li Lingyue didn't know if it was Li Dan's will that Li Longji wanted to kill her in the end, but she knew that even if she kept it from him, her heartless starling would not be able to touch her son, nor would he be capable.

Thinking of it this way, Li Lingyue couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to her father, who gave birth to several sons, but the capable ones were all short-lived ghosts.She raised her lips and smiled self-deprecatingly, she was so ruthless to her elder brother, it was really well-received by A Niang, she couldn't go back.

There was a flash of sadness in her eyes, Li Lingyue picked up her steps and walked up the high steps. She hugged her mother intimately, then knelt down beside her father, and took the hands with the imprint of annual rings to caress her own. Cheeks, put on a little daughter's posture and asked with a charming smile: "Aye, is your daughter more beautiful than before?"

Li Zhi finally saw his daughter's face clearly at a distance of just a few feet away. His face was full of joy, and while stroking his daughter's cheek, he said with a smile: "Yes, yes. My princess is getting more and more beautiful!"

Li Lingyue smiled coquettishly, got up and gave a salute to the two, then returned to her seat.Looking over the faces of the brothers and sisters present one by one, she found that except for her sixth brother Li Xian, the rest of them were still happy.It's just that this joy can't last for a few years. Li Lingyue lowered her eyes, and when she looked up again, she was full of amiable smiles, "It's been a long time, brothers and sisters-in-law. My little sister proposes a toast to you."

The brothers and sisters-in-law quickly raised their glasses in return.Brothers and friends are respectful, aunts and sisters-in-law are harmonious.Feeling very relieved, Li Zhi stroked his beard and laughed, "Meiniang, the children are grown up. We don't need to bother too much anymore."

Empress Wu raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "No matter how old they are, in the eyes of my mother, they are still children."

Li Zhi looked a little dazed, his previous words hinted that Empress Wu should let go, but Empress Wu replied like this.This made him a little worried, but judging from his benevolent nature, Empress Wu is the mother of the children, no matter what a mother is, she will not lay hands on her son.Just let her manage the government for a few more years, and wait until Ming Yun succeeds to the throne.He sighed softly, looked at Yan Xiaoyan's sons and daughters, and laughed again.

The banquet was quite harmonious, Li Xian knew that he would not be favored by Empress Wu, so he was silent from the beginning, drinking the wine in his glass with his head bowed.Li Lingyue didn't provoke him, and only talked about what she had seen and heard this year with a few other people.

After a while, Empress Wu saw Li Zhi rubbing his forehead wearily, so she stopped the banquet and helped him into the back hall.Li Lingyue said a few words to several brothers and sisters-in-law, and then left.

On the way back, her brows were furrowed.She remembered that Wan'er not only picked her back to the palace in her previous life, but also attended the banquet, but now she has not seen Wan'er after returning to the palace.How is this going?Knowing that Empress Wu was suspicious, she tried her best to suppress her regret and disappointment at the banquet, and only then did she show her displeasure on her face.

"You guys go back first, I'll go to the garden to relax." She turned her horse's head and left with a whip.

According to the memory of the previous life, Li Lingyue went to Shangguan Wan'er's boudoir.The room was brightly lit, thinking that the other party was still asleep, Li Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and got off the horse lightly.Raising her hand to signal the servants in the palace to keep silent, she tiptoed in.

Under the red pane, Li Lingyue found Wan'er.Shangguan Wan'er was kneeling and sitting in front of the short table, writing something with a pen, judging by her figure, she seemed to have had a good year.Li Lingyue smiled in satisfaction, she walked forward quietly, hugged Wan'er from behind, leaned on Wan'er's shoulder, and rubbed gently, "Let me see what our beautiful Shangguan Master is writing."

"Ah!" Shangguan Wan'er was taken aback by this sudden intimacy, she hurriedly broke free, straightened up and saluted Li Lingyue, "Princess."

"Princess?" Li Lingyue was used to her calling herself A Yue, but at this moment she couldn't help but feel lonely when she heard the word "Princess". She raised her eyes to look at the pen and ink on the short table, and she suddenly saw the melancholy line, " At the beginning of Yexia Dongting, I miss you for thousands of miles. 2 Wan'er..."Are you thinking of me?

Shangguan Wan'er also gradually returned to normal, she stood dignifiedly and said: "Princess, it's getting late, you should go back and rest."

The verbal alienation is very different from the closeness before.Li Lingyue was sure that there must be something wrong with this matter, she glanced at Wan'er, turned around and walked into the inner room, sat down on the couch, raised her chin and smiled and said: "Well, it's really getting late. I'm going to rest here today."

"Princess..." Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, she found that Her Royal Highness was still as domineering as before.And--she saw Li Lingyue beckoning, "Come here, help me change." She even got worse.She pursed her lips and looked at Her Royal Highness quietly without opening her mouth.

Knowing that she was dissatisfied, Li Lingyue hurriedly said: "There are many people in this palace who call me the princess, but very few call me Ah Yue. If you call me the princess, come over and help me change my clothes."

Of course Shangguan Wan'er knew what Li Lingyue meant, and she also wanted to call Li Lingyue Ayue as before, but the location is different now, and Empress Wu told her that after all, she is Li Zhi's talented person, even if she is only a name, she should not be too serious. If you are too intimate, you should pay attention to proportion.Empress Wu has already spoken, how could she not obey.I had no choice but to look at Li Lingyue in embarrassment, and said, "Princess..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Li Lingyue's angry voice: "Change clothes!"

From Shangguan Wan'er's eyes, she looked like a child who couldn't get candy and was acting like a baby with an adult, which was really cute.Shangguan Wan'er smiled helplessly, "This is my room, how can I have your shirt." Even though she said that, she still approached a little closer.She lowered her eyebrows and caught some dirt on the man's begonia-colored skirt, she suddenly lowered|lowered, and patted lightly, "Look at you, the best skirt is dirty after wearing it for a while."

Li Lingyue raised the corners of her lips, held Wan'er's jaw with her index finger, and smiled teasingly, "How does Wan'er know that I only wore it for a while? I remember that I didn't see Wan'er this morning."

Shangguan Wan'er was stunned. She took advantage of the time when she was dealing with affairs after helping the military, and secretly glanced at Li Lingyue. This was a little secret that belonged to her, but at this time she accidentally let it go, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed, "It's so prosperous! The skirt is not good for riding, how can you wear it back."

"That makes sense." Shangguan Wan'er's expression naturally couldn't hide Li Lingyue, Li Lingyue's mood was much better now, she stretched out her hand to hold Wan'er's catkin, and pulled her into her arms with all her strength.

Shangguan Wan'er fell to the ground, and the two of them fell on the bed like this, with their lips stuck together.
