Empress Reborn

"Drive!" Seeing Shangguan Wan'er sitting in the gazebo reading a book from afar, Li Lingyue rode over, "Wan'er! Look what I brought back for you."

Shangguan Wan'er raised her head and smiled helplessly. The Supreme Emperor, who was almost the age of destiny, was riding on the horse, and she was carrying a rabbit in her hand. The rabbit was trembling, but her Supreme Emperor was still full of vigor and smirk.She got up and walked over to take the rabbit handed by Li Lingyue. Seeing that Li Lingyue was about to jump off as soon as she turned over, she cried out worriedly, "Be careful! They are all old bones. If you continue like this, you won't be afraid of falling?"

Li Lingyue landed steadily on the ground, leaned closer and said, "Okay, you think I'm old again? Could it be that..." She was interrupted by Shangguan Wan'er before she finished speaking, "It's disrespectful to be old." Slightly reddened, Shangguan Wan'er comforted the rabbit in her arms, and asked, "You just hunted this?"

"Yeah. I saw it in the woods just now, and I brought it back thinking that you were thinking of Xuan'er recently." Li Lingyue tugged at the rabbit's ears, and the rabbit immediately shrank into Shangguan Wan'er's arms with red eyes. He snorted bitterly, "This little bastard is really like her, she is so clingy to you."

The older I get, the more I look like a child.Shangguan Wan'er grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "Since you brought it back, you can give it a name."

Li Lingyue thought for a while, then casually replied, "Mao Geng."

Mao Geng is rabbit meat soup.Shangguan Wan'er was dumbfounded, and told the maid to make this "Mao Geng" into Mao Geng.Li Lingyue was in a hurry, and just about to stop her, she heard a report from a servant, saying that a saint had come.

"Xuan'er is here?" Li Lingyue hugged Wan'er's waist, and the two walked towards the inner hall together, peeking at the Maogeng in Wan'er's arms, Li Lingyue cursed in her heart: "Little Maogeng, your fate is temporarily saved." up.

"Xuan'er greets the two ladies."

"Jin'er greets the two grandmas."

Wu Yihuang and her youngest daughter Qi Qi bowed down.Li Lingyue looked down, smiled and beckoned to her little granddaughter, "Jin'er, come here, let grandma have a look."

Jin'er looked at her mother's face, saw her nodding, and ran over happily, "Grandma!"

Li Lingyue responded and pulled Xiao Jin'er into her arms.Xiao Jin'er poked her head to glance into Shangguan Wan'er's arms, and asked curiously, "Grandma Shangguan, what is in your arms?"

Jin'er is about four years old this year. She has been in the palace for a long time and only knows Maogeng, but not rabbits.Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Li Lingyue and joked, "This is your grandma's soup."

"Mao Geng?" Xiao Jin'er widened her eyes, looked at it carefully, then was stunned, looked at A Niang who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "A Niang, why is this Mao Geng different from the ones I usually see? ? Can it be eaten too?"

"..." Wu Yihuang, who was alone on the cold ground, had the right to speak, and said with a sneer, "Well, let Auntie come closer and have a look."

In order to get up, he even said such words.Where is the appearance of a king of a country?Li Lingyue glanced at her daughter, but didn't speak, Wu Yihuang turned to Shangguan Wan'er for help, "Do you think so, Shangguan's mother?"

Shangguan Wan'er covered her lips, looked at Li Lingyue and said, "My daughter is so pitiful, why don't you let her get up."

"Since your mother, Shangguan, has already spoken, then you can get up." Li Lingyue ordered lightly.

Wu Yihuang got up quickly, and bowed in front of the two mothers, "It's Xuan'er's fault for not coming to pay my respects for a long time, please forgive me."

"You know that too." Li Lingyue cast a sideways glance at her daughter, "If it wasn't for your mother-in-law speaking, I would have made you kneel for a while, so that your mother-in-law will remember you, and you should be punished."

"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Yihuang responded with a smile, threw her daughter back into Li Lingyue's arms, and rubbed against Shangguan Wan'er, "Mother Shangguan, Xuan'er misses you so much."

"Mother misses you too. How is everything going in court?" Shangguan Wan'er handed the soup to Li Lingyue, and took her daughter into her arms.Holding the white rabbit, Li Lingyue sighed silently, Maogeng, Maogeng, you have fallen out of favor too quickly.

Shangguan Wan'er and Wu Yihuang were chatting about family affairs from the court hall, and they caught a glimpse of Li Lingyue's apprehensive face from the corner of their eyes.Wu Yihuang understood, got up hastily, ran to her mother's side to get tired, then seemed to think of something, suggested: "There is no curfew in the city today, the lights are bright and lively, do you two ladies want to go and have a look?"

After ascending the throne, the two hadn't enjoyed the lantern for a long time because of their political achievements, Li Lingyue glanced at Shangguan Wan'er, seeing that she also wanted to join in the fun, so she agreed, "That's fine, but you don't want to go. "

"..." Wu Yihuang twitched her lips, "Yes, Xuan'er brought Jin'er back to the palace, so as not to disturb the elegant mood of the two mothers." After speaking, she pouted.

■

At sunset, Wu Yihuang escorted the two mothers back to Chang'an City, and when they approached the West Market, she was forced to say goodbye and take her daughter back to Daming Palace.

"The girl has finally left. Alright, lady, let's go to enjoy the lanterns." For the convenience of traveling, Li Lingyue changed into a jacket and a gown. Shangguan Wan'er looked at her as if she had known her before, nodded, and took her hand to her. hands together.

Lanterns are hung all over the streets, and the night is like day.Shangguan Wan'er and Li Lingyue walked hand in hand, and suddenly said with emotion: "This place is still so lively."

"Yes." Li Lingyue echoed, seeing a group of people gathered in front of her from a distance, she became interested and said, "Wan'er, maybe you are guessing lantern riddles ahead, do you want to go and see?"

"Okay." Shangguan Wan'er nodded with a smile.

When they got closer, they heard the sound of chanting poems, and the two realized that it was a poetry club.The people around her were great poets, Li Lingyue didn't want to give up this opportunity, she dragged Shangguan Wan'er and walked over, she got closer, but she saw an acquaintance.

"Ah Yue, are those two people Ning'er and Lady Jiang?" Shangguan Wan'er asked.

Li Lingyue nodded, and the two thought about staying where they were and listening to Su Muning's poems.

"The world is full of lights, when will the departed soul return." This is the end of Su Muning's poem. Li Lingyue can't help but sigh when she thinks of Su Muzhen who died heroically.

Looking at Jiang Wanrong from a distance, she hugged Su Muning into her arms and comforted her softly. The two turned around and were about to leave, but Su Muning saw them with sharp eyes.

"Sir, saint..." The last sentence lowered the voice, and the two were about to bow down according to the etiquette, but fortunately Li Lingyue quickly stopped him, "This is outside, so there is no need to be too polite. How are you doing these days?"

It seemed like a friend's condolences, Su Muning was startled, and responded with a smile, "Okay. Sister Rong is here..."

Jiang Wanrong replied generously: "We get along well, and everything is fine in the court."

Li Lingyue smiled, and the few chatted for a while before breaking up.Li Lingyue continued to hold Shangguan Wan'er's hand and walked forward, the two of them came to a bridge for some reason.

There is an embankment next to the bridge, and the embankment is connected to the air outlet. There are no lights and no one cares about it.It stands to reason that such a place is not worth staying in, but Li Lingyue led Wan'er over there like a ghost.

"Do you still remember this place?" Li Lingyue said with a smile.

Shangguan Wan'er nodded, "I remember." The cold wind blew up Li Lingyue's purple red gown, and after so long, her Ah Yue was still handsome and upright.It was here at that time that her Ah Yue told her that she liked her.

"Wan'er." Li Lingyue blocked the cold wind with her body, protected Shangguan Wan'er in her arms, stroked Wan'er's cheek, and pressed it against her ear just like that time, and said in a voice so soft that it could float into her heart: "Wan'er, I like you."

After such a long time, Shangguan Wan'er's heart still throbbed, she replied with a smile: "The princess drank too much."

Li Lingyue frowned, lowered her head, and touched Wan'er's lips, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

"En." Shangguan Wan'er nodded to meet the other party's sincere eyes, "It's getting windy, let's go, let's go back and see if Maogeng has been made into Maogeng."

"Okay." Li Lingyue took Shangguan Wan'er's hand and left the place on foot.
