[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun

As soon as the spring hunting was over, Wu Zhao couldn't wait to move back to Beijing.

The clan and the officials all thought that she was thinking about the political situation in central Beijing, and they were afraid of the situation, so they didn't dare to delay, and they didn't say anything, and they returned together.

Wu Zhao herself knew that she came back eagerly because she missed Wan'er too much.

As a result, she came back excitedly, and specially sent a fast horse to report in advance, and she didn't even see Wan'er welcoming her.

Wu Zhao's complexion changed at that time.

Her first reaction was that something happened in the palace.

He rushed into the Zichen Palace with people without stopping, and what did she see?

Zichen Hall is empty.

In the side hall, she found Wan'er... guarding a...sleeping child?

Whose child is this? !

Wu Zhao's eyes widened.

For a moment, Wu Zhao even had this wild thought in his head: Wan'er gave birth to this child with someone who didn't know during the few days she was away!

Of course, this is absolutely impossible.

Anyway, Wu Zhao has her city, so she won't lose her composure in front of others.

She waved back, face sinking like water, pointed to Xue Chongwen who was still asleep, and asked coldly: "Who is he?"

At this time, apart from Xue Chongwen, there were only Wan'er and her in the hall.

It's not that Wan'er doesn't look forward to Wu Zhao's return, and it's not that she doesn't know that Wu Zhao has already entered the palace.

Because of the sudden warm weather, Xue Chongwen's children couldn't adapt to it and contracted the cold.No matter how obedient and sensible he is, he is still just such a small child. He is sick and suffering, and there is no one close to him to take care of him, so he will inevitably cling to Wan'er.When Wu Zhao entered the palace, Wan'er had just coaxed him to fall asleep, so she missed the chance to welcome him.

How could Wan'er fail to see that Wu Zhao was angry?

At this moment, if it was someone else, instead of being in front of her, she would have been furious, instead of being provoked?

Wan'er thought to herself.

"You're back?" Wan'er's voice was softer than usual.

She missed Wu Zhao very much, and now she finally saw this person appear in front of her again.

Wan'er's first reaction was to rush over and throw herself into this man's arms.

When Wu Zhao heard her voice, his cold face thawed a little.

"Yes." Wu Zhao replied in a muffled voice.

She walked towards Xue Chongwen's bed and couch where Xue Chongwen was sleeping soundly, and stood in front of the couch, looking down at Xue Chongwen's ignorant sleeping face.

"Tiger head?" Wu Zhao frowned, "Why did he come here?"

It's okay, and I still recognize my only grandson.

Wan'er thought.

Wu Zhao couldn't see what she was thinking, and snorted lightly: "He and Taiping look alike when they were young, so I will recognize him naturally."

really.

Wan'er nodded secretly.

Wu Zhao is too lazy to see his children and grandchildren on weekdays, so please forgive him if he can.If Xue Chongwen and Taiping hadn't looked alike when they were young, she probably wouldn't have recognized her so quickly.

"Why did he come here?" Wu Zhao repeated the question again, showing some impatience.

"It's a coincidence." Wan'er said softly, as if she was afraid of waking up the child.

Coincidentally, Xue Chongwen may have had a nightmare, his little brows were frowned into a pimple, and at the same time he groaned twice.

Then, Wu Zhao saw a scene that made her feel extremely strange——

Wan'er actually raised a beautiful palm, and stroked Xue Chongwen's forehead gently.

Xue Chongwen probably sensed it, frowned slightly, and fell asleep peacefully again.

This made Wu Zhao very uncomfortable.

In her cognition, Wan'er's body and mind, everything about Wan'er should belong to her, even if Xue Chongwen is just such a small child, Wan'er is not allowed to touch his head!

What's more, it's still such a gentle touch?

So, what happened during her absence?

Wu Zhao's face, which had been relieved just now, sank again.

She opened her mouth, wanting to call someone, but finally hesitated——

She didn't mind waking Xue Chongwen up or crying him, she didn't care.

But Wan'er, this little thing, obviously didn't want Xue Chongwen to be woken up...

Wu Zhao snorted angrily, stood up and walked out.

Wan'er sensed that her momentum was not right, so she hurriedly grabbed her.

"Where are you going?" Wan'er lowered her voice and asked.

Wu Zhao panicked and had to lower his voice: "Let them take him away!"

Although the voice is low, the voice is not good.

Wan'er's movement of pulling her sleeve froze.

"He's still sick!" Wan'er said.

Wu Zhao burst into anger and went straight to the door: "When he is sick, he will tell the imperial doctor, he should see the doctor, he should drink medicine..."

She endured it, but she still couldn't hold it back, and said in a low voice: "He has a father and a mother to take care of him! Let Taiping come and take him back!"

Wan'er then knew that Wu Zhao was really angry.

She vaguely sensed why Wu Zhao was angry, but she couldn't figure it out.

If it was really the reason she guessed, it would be too... naive, right?

Wan'er was a little dumbfounded.

"Let him fall asleep here for now, don't wake him up, okay?" Wan'er patiently discussed with Wu Zhao.

In this way, it would be difficult for Wu Zhao to continue losing his temper.

"Follow you!" She snorted coldly, flung her sleeves and left.

After Wu Zhao left, Wan'er was quite speechless.

She knew it was nothing to do like this, and she never wanted to make Wu Zhao angry.

This matter is better explained.

Wan'er then quietly called Xiao Rong and told her to guard Xue Chongwen carefully and report to herself in time if there was any situation.

After giving some instructions, Wan'er had no time to change clothes, so she went to the main hall of Zichen Palace.

Wan'er is not the only one who can't change clothes.

Wu Zhao was sitting upright in the main hall of the Zichen Palace at this time. Behind the desk she used to sit on was the same clothes she wore when she returned to the palace.

And on the desk in front of her, there were stacks of memorials.

Is this just sitting and dealing with political affairs in a fit of pique?

Wan'er shook her head silently.

Wan'er looked around from a distance, and found that there were not only Wu Zhao in the hall, but also two people kneeling below.

Looking at the figure, one is tall and strong, Song Zhiti; the other is a person dressed as a female official, whose face cannot be seen, so he probably does not know him.

Wan'er frowned, already vaguely guessing what Wu Zhao was investigating.

The conversation inside, the voice is not high, Wan'er can't hear clearly.

When she was hesitating whether to go in at this moment, Wan'er suddenly felt footsteps behind her.

Looking back, I saw Zhao Ying leading a middle-aged prisoner coming over.

Judging by the color of the middle-aged eunuch's clothes, it's neither high nor low.

Zhao Ying saw Wan'er at a glance, and immediately lost his smile: "Greetings to Mrs. Shangguan!"

Wan'er smiled modestly and nodded towards him.

The middle-aged eunuch behind Zhao Ying was so frightened that he "thumped" and knelt down when he heard the words "Shangguan's wife".

"This old slave is confused! I almost hurt Mrs. Shangguan! Please forgive me, Mrs. Shangguan! The old slave beat and killed that little slave as soon as he got back to vent his anger on Mrs. Shangguan!"

Wan'er was confused by what she heard, so she looked at Zhao Ying, what does this mean?

The corners of Zhao Ying's mouth twitched, he picked up the inner prisoner, and cursed in a low voice: "You are so confused! Where is this place, you dare to yell like this!"

The middle-aged prisoner was so afraid to speak out.

After listening to Zhao Ying's simple explanation, Wan'er realized that this middle-aged eunuch was the steward of the equestrian prison, because Li Longji arbitrarily moved the pony in the equestrian prison the day before yesterday, and the pony ran wildly in the palace, almost hitting Wan Son, this horse supervisor is going to be scared to death.

Wan'er then thought that it must be the horse supervisor who wanted to calm down the matter quietly. After all, the two parties involved in the incident were Shangguan's wife and Yan Wang Li Longji, and he couldn't afford to provoke anyone.But who would have thought that the Queen Mother would ask about it when she came back to Luan, and Supervisor Ma would naturally understand that the Queen Mother might be "biased" towards whom.

Thinking of being involved in such a suspected "harem matter", Wan'er felt a headache——

Gongdou has always been complicated, not only complicated, but also involves many lives.

"Where is that horse slave?" Wan'er asked.

"Manu?" The horse supervisor was stunned for a moment.

"The old slave arrested him right now, and let Shangguan's wife deal with it!" He thought he understood Wan'er's meaning.

Wan'er was speechless, feeling that the atmosphere in the palace was really unreasonable.

"He has done his duty, why should he be punished?" Wan'er asked.

"Ah?" Supervisor Ma was stunned, "This..."

It was Zhao Ying who reacted quickly: "Miss Shangguan asks you something, and you answer it truthfully!"

"Hey!" The horse supervisor hurriedly responded, "That little servant is in the horse prison..."

Wan'er looked at her fixedly: "What I mean is that no one is allowed to embarrass him, do you understand?"

Ma Jianshi is not a pure fool, he was stunned for two breaths, and hurriedly said: "Understood! I understand!"

Finally, the innocent person was not implicated, Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew very well that in such a feudal palace, innocent people were implicated and even lost their lives, which was definitely not something she could do alone.But that is a life after all, even if it is just a little change, after all, someone has to do it.

The so-called prosperous age, the so-called glorious state, has never been and should not be, only material wealth and military strength.

At this time, Song Zhiti and the female official who were replying to the queen mother's words in the palace retreated with their hands down.

When the two saw Wan'er, they hurriedly saluted and said hello.

It was only then that Wan'er saw that the one dressed by the female official was one of the maids beside Li Longji that day, and the one who looked more at her and Song Zhiti.

Wan'er nodded to them and said nothing.

The two retreated one after another.

Another small inner eunuch rushed out from the hall, and specially sent "Empress Dowager's Order" to Wan'er——

"The empress dowager ordered, Mrs. Shangguan, go back and don't have to wait here."

Listen to a very common sentence.

Then the little internal supervisor led the horse supervisor in for questioning.

Wan'er heard a different meaning in those ordinary words: Wu Zhao doesn't want to see her now.

Still angry!

Wan'er sighed silently.

Wan'er did not leave, she was still waiting outside the hall.

She was already mentally prepared, even if Wu Zhao asked others to come to see her, she would wait here until Wu Zhao was willing to see her.

Wan'er didn't want a rift between the two of them—

After so many days, there is nowhere to resolve the lovesickness, how can you be willing to regenerate the gap?

Perhaps Wu Zhao also had the same idea as Wan'er.

After Supervisor Ma left, Wan'er was called in.

Wan'er secretly praised herself, she couldn't wait to walk.

Entering the hall, it is empty and empty, and no one else can be seen.

Wu Zhao still maintained the previous sitting posture, holding a memorial behind the case, and refused to give Wan'er a look.

Since no one else was present, Wan'er let go.

Instead of saluting, she walked directly behind Wu Zhao, put her hands on Wu Zhao's shoulders, and exerted a little force to relieve Wu Zhao's muscles and bones.

There was a distinct touch on both shoulders, and Wu Zhao squeezed the memorial in his hand.

As early as when Wan'er entered the hall, Wu Zhao couldn't concentrate on the memorial.

The body that I haven't been close to for a long time is very close, and Wu Zhao's chest is burning with dryness and heat——

She suddenly threw away the memorial, pulled Wan'er's wrist, caught Wan'er in front of her, and imprisoned her between herself and the desk.

Seeing Wan'er bit her lip, Wu Zhao couldn't bear it.

However, she still couldn't bear that question, and wanted to ask: "Do you want... a child?"
