Zhen Guo Princess GL

Chapter 498 Zetian

When she opened her eyes, it was far from nightfall, but the bedroom was not lit, and the curtains were drawn, and the doors and windows were closed. When she looked suddenly, she thought it was night, and she turned her head. The first thing she did was He just looked at the pillow beside him, there was no one on it, and when he turned his head, he saw two palace servants kneeling in front of the bed. Seeing her look, they hurriedly lowered their heads and stepped forward: "Your Majesty."

She wanted to sit up propped up, but her arms were sore, but she didn't get up the first time. The palace servants came to support her, but she waved them away. The fluffy lion head stomped to the ground: "Where's Wan'er?"

The two looked at each other, and one of them said: "Shangguan Chengzhi intends to treat the crime in the palace."

She was slightly taken aback, but she wasn't surprised. She didn't bother to raise her hand, so she just raised her chin: "Call her over."

The palace servants went out lightly, and Wan'er came in after a while, she had already taken off her coat and the hairpin, she crossed the threshold and prostrated herself on the ground: "Waiting for the sinful concubine, Shangguan Wan'er, to pay homage to Your Majesty."

She beckoned to Wan'er, wanting the little thing to get up, but Wan'er walked forward on her knees and prayed again in front of the bed, she stretched out her hand with difficulty, and pinched Wan'er's face: "Are you angry with me? "

Wan'er raised her head with an unusually calm expression: "Don't be angry."

She was a little surprised, looked at the little thing's face repeatedly, and pulled her up from the ground: "Aren't you angry?"

Wan'er got up obediently, and sat beside her. Seeing that her hands were still propped on the edge of the bed, she climbed onto the bed, took out some pillows, put them on one side, and supported her to sit.Then she knew that Wan'er was not angry anymore, for some reason, she felt a little indescribably disappointed, holding Wan'er's hand, and let her sit side by side with her: "Why aren't you angry?"

Wan'er let her hold her hand, and smoothed her temple hair with the other hand, lowered her head, and said calmly: "Your Majesty just did what should be done."

She hugged Wan'er in her arms and said nothing for a long while. After a long while, Wan'er sat up straight in her arms, wrapped her arms around her back, put them on her legs, and gently kneaded: "Are you tired?"

She shook her head, nodded again, and waited for Wan'er to rub for a while, then raised the other arm, leaned down even more, stretched her legs, and lay down on the bed half-lying, Ren Wan'er changed her arm and continued pinching her eyes. Closed slightly, after a while, Fang said: "A Wan."

Wan'er hummed, but didn't speak. She squeezed her arms and shoulders for her. She opened her eyes to look at her. The little thing was submissive and gentle, as usual, but just like her, there was a slight twitch between her brows and eyes. Tired, she didn't know why this tiredness came from, she stretched out her hand, and traced Wan'er's eyebrows with her fingertips: "What's wrong?"

Wan'er still didn't speak, then switched shoulders, lowered her head to beat her leg again, she bent her leg to avoid Wan'er's movement: "What's wrong?"

Wan'er looked up at her, and said after a long time, "It would be great if you were just Ah Zhao and not the emperor."

She smiled bitterly, wiped the back of her hand on Wan'er's face, and wiped away the line of tears on her cheek: "If there is no one else, you can just treat me as Azhao." Don't wipe it down, after wiping, Wan'er's cheek There were more tears on her face, she had to wipe Wan'er's cheeks with her sleeves, seeing that the little thing was still crying, she simply took her into her arms, let her cry against her chest, and stroked Wan'er's shoulder with one hand As if coaxing a child, he said softly: "Don't cry, don't cry." After saying a few words, I unconsciously hummed the Bingzhou folk song my father sang when I was a child. It has been nearly 70 years, and the lyrics have been forgotten. , but as in the ear.She hasn't been back to her hometown for a long time. Although she can't say that she is nostalgic for it, she can't help feeling a little bit sad. She hummed and hummed, and her voice gradually became quieter. At the end, she sighed, but it wasn't her father or her hometown: "When Taiping was young. , I always asked me to sing these songs for her. At that time, she was only so big, she was as thin as a pine needle, and when she was four or five years old, I could hug her with one hand."

She sighed again, and gently patted the little thing's shoulder with her arm around Wan'er: "When I first saw you, you were similar to her, small and thin, and looked like you could hold her with just one hand." But you are much smarter than her." Thinking of the little girl in front of the Hongwen Museum, I couldn't help but smile: "In the blink of an eye, more than 30 years have passed. There were so many people in front of the Hongwen Museum that day, but now there are only You and I—it’s also fate.”

He lowered his head and wiped Wan'er's face gently with his hands: "The sage said, 'At seventy, do what you want'. When I was a child, I always felt that when I was seventy, I could do whatever I wanted, but I really didn't realize it until I was at this age." At seventy, follow your heart's desire', not because you can do whatever you want when you are old, but because you are old and the things you can do are already limited, so people are not afraid of you doing whatever you want—you can't do much anyway. And when people reach this age, If you don’t do it quickly, who knows if you don’t have time? You young people have a long time to go. Although you are familiar with the scriptures, you may not be able to understand these principles. I But I have personally felt this truth, so sometimes you see me being a bit willful in things, not because I don’t care about you at all, and I don’t want to take your feelings into account, but because I’m old and I’m afraid I can’t wait—you understand Is it?"

Wan'er finally stopped crying, and looked up at her: "You are seventy years old, you can feel this truth firsthand. My Azhao is also seventy years old, I accompany her day and night, how can I not feel this truth It’s just that people are always greedy enough. After getting Long, they miss Shu again. Having Qiniang, they miss Azhao. After having Azhao, they want to last forever. They can’t last long, but they also think about being inseparable. Whether or not, nothing can be counted on.”

Tears overflowed from Wan'er's eyes again, and she raised her head higher, as if she could hold back the tears—in fact, it just flowed faster, directly from the corner of her eyes across her ears, dripping on her hands, and she looked at it with a smile. Holding Wan'er, he wiped her tears with his hand again: "A few years ago, you still had a lot of ambitions, coaxing me to let you go outside to compete with those men for the limelight. I refused, and you quietly made an appointment After leaving Taiping, what kind of women's society started. When you were criticizing people and pointing out the country, you didn't see you think of the "inferior" thing. Why is it suddenly so trivial, and the love between children has grown?" Seeing that Wan'er straightened her neck to argue, She smiled and reached out to stop her mouth: "I don't blame you for this. In life, parents, children, brothers and sisters, husband and wife, lovers, monarchs, friends... have to go through so many important people, so many friendships, how can a mere person be able to do it? Replacement of all? And when people come into the world, parents are the first fate, followed by brothers and sisters, friends after a little longer, husband and wife, lovers after that, and children. It should also be the parents. If you talk about the origin, it should be the children. Although the lover is important, it is always one of many fates, and it is not exclusive. Don't talk about me, it is you. Although you get along with me, can I want you Abandoning your mother, your uncles, aunts, cousins, and your friends who are like-minded?——I used to have such an idea, but think about it, if I really want you to do this, can you do it? I I don’t want to ask you like this, and I don’t want you to give up your daily wishes because of me, and make compromises. Although a lover is very important in a person’s life, it is by no means the only important thing. This is true for me, and it is even more true for you Staring at Wan'er, he smiled lightly and said, "Promise me, don't forget your own life ambitions because of what happened to you and me, no matter before or after my death."
