[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun
Chapter 11
In the huge palace, only the Zheng family and Wan'er mother and daughter were left.
Apart from the two of them, there was the empress Wu who was aloof and looked down on them.
The eunuchs and maids in the palace were all sent away, and the silence was terrifying.
In this situation, Wan'er has to admire the Martial Emperor in front of her, who is extremely human——
If it were any noble person in the deep palace, he would leave a few eunuchs to serve him, in case the mother and daughter of the Zheng family would suddenly attack, right?
Empress Wu's courage is really impressive.
Wan'er felt emotional in her heart, but on the surface she prostrated herself on the ground respectfully.
She felt that Empress Wu's gaze fell on her back coldly, as if she wanted to penetrate her back to see clearly her heart.
For a moment, Wan'er suddenly had a strange feeling: Compared with Zheng, an adult, Empress Wu seemed to pay more attention to her. Is it her?
But she is still a child!
Although the child's appearance, there is a soul that has lived for 32 years.
32 years... This is time and space. At this moment, Empress Wu looks like she is only in her thirties?
Wan'er wasn't sure.
She has no way of knowing the age of Empress Wu.
If Wan'er knew something about Empress Wu's experience, she might be able to deduce her age.
It has been recorded in history books that this Empress Wu was good at makeup.So, is this rather youthful face transformed?
Then, Wan'er did something that she would feel lingering fear every time she thinks about it——
She unexpectedly raised her head and looked at Empress Wu's face.
Empress Wu lived on a high place, Wan'er wanted to see if she had heavy makeup, but she didn't have time to see it clearly, but because of the half-smile expression on Empress Wu's face, she was startled.
Empress Wu was also staring at her face!
Wan'er trembled instinctively, quickly lowered her head, her fair face was buried in the dust.
Later, when she recalled the situation at that time, she felt that she was really like an ostrich that was muttering "She can't see me! She can't see me!" in her heart.
From Wan'er raising her head to lowering her head, only a few breaths before and after, Mrs. Zheng knelt beside her with her heart gripped and didn't notice it.
Compared with Wan'er, Zheng's heart is a real mess.
What she was thinking about was how to protect Wan'er safely.
Even if it was to let her take her own life, she would be happy.
Empress Wu finally condescended to speak to them.
She sat down on the armchair slowly, with a mocking smile on her lips, she said unhurriedly: "It's really unusual to have so many people in the palace running for you!"
Wan'er felt her spine tighten when she heard that.
Empress Wu's tone was not at all impetuous, but Wan'er could hear the danger in it——
It is definitely not a little girl who can influence so many forces in the palace; then, only the influence of Shangguan's family is the only one.
Thinking of the ending of Shangguan's family, Wan'er swallowed with difficulty.
Because of her nervousness, her throat was very dry and astringent.
As soon as Empress Wu said this, Wan'er didn't know how to react, and the Zheng family next to her kowtowed desperately.
She kept begging for mercy, and humbly begged for mercy from Empress Wu, begging Empress Wu to spare Wan'er's life...
Wan'er frowned secretly.
She understood Zheng's love for daughters, and she couldn't help but be moved by it.However, rationally speaking, what Zheng did would not necessarily impress Empress Wu.
Like Empress Wu, a woman who doesn't even care about family affection for the sake of power, will a poor woman who is down and out begging for mercy and life for her poor daughter move Empress Wu's heart?
Wan'er shook her head in her heart.
Instead of believing in Empress Wu's compassion, it is better to believe that Empress Wu cares about the balance of interests.
Empress Wu was obviously agitated by Zheng's begging for mercy.
Wan'er still remembers what Empress Wu told Princess Taiping about "Palace Learning".Although not sure, but that matter is probably aimed at myself.
Wan'er then strengthened her courage, and before Empress Wu lost her last patience, she suddenly spoke loudly——
"The concubine is willing to serve the empress to show the virtue of the empress!"
The clear and clear child's voice echoed in the hall as adults would speak.
Empress Wu and Mrs. Zheng were both stunned.
Zheng Shi was stunned, as if she didn't know her, she turned her head to look at her daughter.
Empress Wu's eyes flashed in disbelief.
Her first reaction was to turn her face to look at Mrs. Zheng.
When she saw Zheng's surprised expression, which was definitely not a fake, Empress Wu's eyes were even more inconceivable, and she was a little interested.
"What did you say?" Empress Wu deliberately sullenly asked Wan'er in a cold voice.
Wan'er stabilized her mind and told herself countless times in her heart not to panic.
She was bold, raised her face, looked at Empress Wu earnestly, and then said: "The Empress said before that the concubine does not know how to learn, so please ask the Empress to show her kindness and allow the concubine to enter the palace to study... If it takes time The concubine hasn't made any progress, so it won't be too late for the empress to punish the concubine!"
What she said can be described as cunning: how can it be possible that there is no progress in studying and studying?Even if she doesn't make any progress in the eyes of Empress Wu in the future, it's just "punishment" and there is no danger of her life.
Moreover, given the busyness of Empress Wu, how could she have the time to test her in person?
Empress Wu naturally heard the careful thought in her words, and there were a few obvious smile lines on the corners of her mouth.
"You are a little official slave, and you still want to let me test you? Huh?" Empress Wu asked the question, as if she wanted to see how Wan'er would answer.
Wan'er had been prepared for a long time, and kowtowed again: "The empress is as respectful as the bright moon, and the concubine dare not climb high. But the existence of the concubine is completely useful to the empress!"
She is a person who travels through the world, and she speaks nonsense in half-literate, half-baby words, but this should be in line with her identity as a child.
"Oh?" Empress Wu smiled when she heard that, "You are a little child, do you know what 'Zunru Haoyue' is?"
When Wan'er heard her asking this, she knew that she had entered the palace to study and thus saved her life.
Wan'er then said: "There is nothing brighter than the sun and the moon in the sky. Your majesty is the sun, shining on all people; the empress is the moon, and the stars hold the moon."
As she said this, she said sorry to her geography teacher in her heart.
Empress Wu must not know that the moon can only be illuminated by sunlight, right?
If she knew, she would confess her little life.
As the saying goes, "Thousands of clothes, ten thousand clothes, flattering never wears." After hearing these two compliments from Wan'er, Empress Wu was in a good mood.
But her city is very deep, and she will definitely not be affected by a little girl's childish language.
"You said that your existence is completely useful to me? Tell me." Empress Wu said.
Her tone seemed to be that of an adult.She didn't even realize this unconscious importance.
Wan'er had already thought about the answer to this question.
"The concubine is the granddaughter of Shangguanyi, and Shangguanyi is someone the empress doesn't like. If the empress treats her concubine better, in the eyes of others, the empress is tolerant, and the world will be grateful for her tolerance. The scholars will also support the empress, and are willing to be driven by the empress!"
When Zheng Shi heard Wan'er say her grandfather's name like that, she felt very uncomfortable and frowned.
Empress Wu was very happy to hear Wan'er express it in this way.
She really never imagined that such a little girl would be able to dissect such a relationship.
Obviously not taught by the Zheng family, so could it be taught by the Xu family?
Empress Wu immediately denied her idea.
She understands Xu Jieyu's temper.
If these words are all thought up by this little girl...
That can be called a child prodigy!
With a thought in Empress Wu's mind, she suddenly developed a heart of love for talents.
Her eyes couldn't stop wandering back and forth on Wan'er's body a few times.
"I don't like to hear these words! I don't want to hear them in the future! You, remember?" Empress Wu said coldly.
Wan'er was startled, and hurriedly said: "Yes, I remember."
Empress Wu said again: "I think you are young and open-mouthed, and you are not as knowledgeable as you. You go to the palace school honestly and follow the masters to study and understand, and if you have some cunning thoughts, don't blame me for not letting you!"
"Yes! Thank you, Madam, for your kindness!" Wan'er said loudly.
Although she didn't know Empress Wu's thoughts, she was also very clear that those words before could save her life, but she must never say them again.
Empress Wu saw that she seemed to be taught, and looked at Zheng Shi again, with a look of disgust in her eyes.
After sending away Wan'er, mother and daughter, Empress Wu didn't call in anyone to serve.
She sat alone behind the desk, her eyes lowered.
No one knew what she was thinking about.
After a long time, Empress Wu slowly raised her hand and tapped on the table with her fingertips, one stroke after another...
She wrote the word "month".
"The Empress is like a bright moon... Your Majesty is the sun... The stars hold the moon..."
The girl's clear and clean voice still echoed in her ears.
What's the fun in just being the moon?
Empress Wu's lips curved into a sneer.
Empress Wu's palm moved across the book case, as if to erase the word "moon" from the book case.
Then, she couldn't help writing another... "Xu" on the case.
That word took her a lot of effort.
It's not because the words are so difficult to write, but because there are too many, too many in it.
A woman's voice, passing through endless time, suddenly rang in Empress Wu's ears——
"Do you know what you're talking about? Do you know what you're doing?"
"Do you know that that road can lead to ruin and not a good end, and serious loss of life and loss of family and family?"
"Do you know how many people, how many families, will be defeated for your purpose?"
"I can protect you today. Who else can protect you in the future?"
Every sentence, like a heavy hammer, hit Empress Wu's heart, the pain made her breathless.
so what!
She opened her eyes suddenly, and said to the voice in the void.
However, that person will never be heard.
People cannot be resurrected from the dead.
However, opportunities are hard to grasp no matter how lost they are!
Empress Wu straightened her spine suddenly, as if at this moment, the world was in her hands.
Her palm brushed across the desk again, erasing the invisible "Xu".
Why not erase some kind of fetters?
"Come here!" Empress Wu called out.
Zhao Ying, who was standing outside the hall, quickly stepped inside and bowed to obey orders.
Empress Wu looked solemnly, looking into an unknown distance.
"Change and go to see His Majesty!" she said.
