Empress Reborn

"Aniang is here?" Li Lingyue's expression sank instantly. She had clearly ordered not to notify Tianhou just now, but someone still disobeyed.So A Niang put eyeliner on her place?It's no wonder, now that I'm only in my cardamom years, with only a few wings, compared to A Niang, who has long been in power, few people are afraid of her.But this is just the beginning, what will happen in the future is still unknown, isn't it?

A smile appeared on the face again, Li Lingyue looked at Shangguan Wan'er reassuringly, and said helplessly: "Oh, Wan'er, it seems that we will not be able to take a bath together today."

"Ah Yue." Hearing what Li Lingyue said, Shangguan Wan'er, who was afraid that Empress Wu would anger her, couldn't help but smile, her fear gradually calmed down, and she calmly went to meet him.

Then, Empress Wu walked in surrounded by a crowd of servants.Li Lingyue wanted to get up and salute, but her foot injury was not healed, and she almost staggered when she got up.When Shangguan Wan'er saw her, she hurriedly ran to help her, she didn't see the slightest weakness in the past.And this speed is actually one point faster than the nearby Empress Wu.

"It seems that the two of you are getting along well these few days." Looking at the two people supporting them, Empress Wu joked.

To be cared about by Shangguan Wan'er like this, Li Lingyue's heart was like honey. She saved Shangguan Wan'er's slender wrist and greeted Empress Wu, "Yes. Wan'er has been urging her daughter a lot these days. Study. My daughter feels that she is about to become a bachelor."

"Poor mouth." Empress Wu scolded her daughter, looked at the little scars on her body, and the mother's love of protecting the calf was ignited again, "What are you still standing up for? Sit down quickly. Seeing you in such a mess, how did you make it?"

Li Lingyue sat down with the support of Shangguan Wan'er, of course she would not think that her mother knew nothing about the previous events, she probably wanted to test herself by asking this question.With a pale face, Li Lingyue said angrily, "It's not all those reckless bandits who came from nowhere. It's all their fault. My daughter and Wan'er are in such a mess."

"Speak carefully." Empress Wu ordered.

Li Lingyue then replied in detail: "My daughter studied the morning class under Wan'er's supervision today, and thought the weather was fine, so she took Wan'er and the others out for an outing. Unexpectedly, when she came to a forest path, there was a A group of reckless bandits came. The reckless bandits were rude and startled Wan'er's horse. The daughter was worried that Wan'er would be injured by the horse, so she chased after her. I also blamed my daughter for the odd number. When she rescued Wan'er, her own horse was also injured. Shocked. That's when I fell down with Wan'er and ended up like this."

Empress Wu nodded slightly, and she looked at Li Lingyue and Shangguan Wan'er with her eyes. Although both of them looked embarrassed, when it came to injuries, her daughter's clothes were mostly damaged, and she couldn't even stand firmly.Looking at Guan Wan'er's body is also messy, but the scars are rare.This scene, according to Wu Hou, is more like his own daughter protecting Shangguan Wan'er.Thinking back to the time when I first met Wan'er in the past, my daughter seemed to protect her a lot, could it be...

Empress Wu looked at them silently, but realized that they were not very close. Shangguan Wan'er stood by and lowered her head slightly, and her daughter did not focus on him, but just looked at herself sadly, as if she wanted to Make yourself call the shots for her.

Maybe she was worrying too much.Empress Wu comforted her daughter a few words, but then she seemed to remember something, and asked: "By the way, Ah Yue, I heard that you just brought back two girls?"

Li Lingyue's eyelashes trembled slightly, it seemed that her mother did come after hearing the news.Although according to her current power, she will not arouse empress Wu's suspicion, but after all, she is a person who has passed through one life. Li Lingyue has seen too many cruel actions of her mother in her previous life. When she heard her mother's question at this time, she still had some concerns. .With an innocent smile on their faces, Li Lingyue and Empress Wu said coquettishly: "You can't hide anything from A Niang. My daughter was taken care of by those two young ladies just now. Seeing that the two of them had a hard time, they brought them back. A Niang, You won't refuse, will you?"

Empress Wu smiled noncommittally, "Since he is the one who took care of you, I also called her to show you. Mother can thank you in person."

Li Lingyue naturally knew that her mother wanted to see the sisters of the Su family. As for whether she would ask her to leave, this was not something she could decide. , said to Empress Wu, "Aniang, my daughter was almost killed by a wild boar before, but fortunately the Su family aunt rescued her. My daughter saw Mu Zhen's skill is good, so she wanted to keep her by her side as a guard."

"Hmm." Empress Wu looked at the Su family sisters who had been tidied up, but felt that the two sisters looked lovely, and they also behaved so politely when facing her. She was not the children of ordinary families. She stared at the two, Shen Sheng asked, "Are you two really ordinary people living in the forest?"

Su Muzhen inspected Li Lingyue from the corner of her eye. Seeing that Li Lingyue had no scruples, she pulled her younger sister to kneel down and said frankly: "The Empress of Heaven, my slave and my younger sister are the daughters of General Su Linsu and concubine Ji. Because of some incidents at home, I lived in the forest."

"Some things happened at home?" Empress Wu, who has been in the court for a long time, naturally knew what these things were. She lowered her eyebrows and asked Su Muzhen, "Do you want me to make decisions for you?"

Li Lingyue frowned, and her eyes were also on Su Muzhen. In her previous life, she suffered from infidelity, but in this life she is the most loyal servant.If Su Muzhen heard that Empress Wu would make decisions for her, she would be moved to defect.Even if he stayed by her side from that day on, he was always on guard against being bribed by others.That being the case, she might as well abandon him now.

Waiting intently for Su Muzhen's reply, suddenly, she saw Su Muzhen nod her head and replied: "Thank you for the kindness of the queen, but the princess taught me that the past is over. I don't want to pursue the past. By my side, I have already answered the princess's favor of rebuilding!"

It really didn't disappoint her.The corners of Li Lingyue's lips curled up, she felt that she had really picked up a treasure this time, and she should cultivate it more in the future.She smiled and looked at Shangguan Wan'er beside her, unexpectedly seeing Shangguan Wan'er frowning slightly, she seemed a little displeased.

Could it be that he ate Mu Zhen's taste?Li Lingyue slandered, but couldn't help smiling.

Empress Wu didn't expect the cardamom girl to be so loyal, she looked at Su Muzhen approvingly, raised her hand to call the two to get up, and then said to Li Lingyue: "Ah Yue, you really accepted a Good guard. Don't neglect him."

Li Lingyue smiled and said yes, she saw the smile on Wu's back, she thought she was in a good mood, so she put on the attitude of a little girl again, and said coquettishly to Empress Wu: "Mother, my daughter has something to ask for your permission."

"What's the matter?"

Li Lingyue replied: "My daughter talked with Mu Zhen earlier, and learned that there are many people who are as poor as Mu Zhen in the vicinity. My daughter thought that there is a "sick room" in the temple to accommodate the sick, so why can't my daughter's Taiping Temple build a "good room" 'Come to take in those poor people who can't open the pot."

"Oh?" After hearing this, Empress Wu couldn't help looking at her daughter again. Seeing her daughter's serious face, it wasn't a joke, she couldn't help sighing: "Come out, Ah Yue has grown up."

"Aniang is teasing her daughter again. My daughter is a princess of the Tang Dynasty, so she should think of the people." Li Lingyue smiled slightly.

It was rare for her daughter to have an idea, and it was not easy for Empress Wu to refuse her, so she agreed to this matter and arranged some guards for her.Li Lingyue knew that there would be a lot of people here in the future, and Empress Wu's move was also for her safety, so she agreed.

After the incident, Empress Wu paid more attention to Li Lingyue's daily life, and when she learned that her daughter was fine today, she prepared to return to the palace.Li Lingyue hurriedly got up to greet her, but she forgot that her foot injury was not healed in her anxiety, and almost fell down.Fortunately, Shangguan Wan'er was by her side, when she saw her body swaying slightly, she lowered her body and helped her over, "Ah Yue."

I am used to saying it recently, and the word "A Yue" comes out of my mouth casually.Shangguan Wan'er was startled, she hurriedly raised her head to check Empress Wu's reaction.Unexpectedly, Empress Wu was also looking at her at this time, "Ah Yue?"

Empress Wu frowned slightly, as if displeased with her over politeness.Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but wanted to lower her body to confess, but Li Lingyue held her catkin and gave her a consoling look.It was this look that made Shangguan Wan'er calm down, and it was this look that made Empress Wu aware of the abnormality.Such a protective but deeply affectionate appearance seemed familiar to her. She clearly remembered that she had looked at sister Xu like this before.

Li Lingyue didn't know what was on Empress Wu's mind. Seeing that Wan'er was afraid of being blamed, she stopped her self-consciously, "Aniang, I made Wan'er call you that! My daughter calls Wan'er Wan'er, and Wan'er calls her daughter A Yue. Isn't it more intimate?"

"Hmm." Empress Wu was wandering in her thoughts. She looked at the respectful Wan'er, and then at the daughter who cared so much about others. A thought floated up in her heart, her phoenix eyes drooped slightly, and she made a decree, " Speaking of which, Wan'er has been with you for a while, and it's time to go back and help A Niang."

"Aniang!" Unexpectedly, Li Lingyue was taken aback by Empress Wu's decision. She wanted to act coquettishly with Empress Wu again, but when she saw Empress Wu's firm expression, she knew that the other party must have other deep intentions.It was as if a barbed thorn had grown out of her body, and her heart was entwined with the barbed thorn. Li Lingyue was in pain, but she couldn't express it on her face. She just smiled and bid farewell to Shangguan Wan'er, and told her to go back and pay attention to rest.
