[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun

In Zichen Palace.

Wan'er sat in her usual seat, reading military newspapers one by one.

Wu Zhao leaned next to her, talking to her nonchalantly.

Wan'er's gaze followed the lines of the military newspaper, and she answered all of Wu Zhao's questions.

This scene gave both of them a feeling of tranquility.

"Are you really from a thousand years later?" Wu Zhao stared at Wan'er's face.

"The Queen Mother still doesn't believe it?" Wan'er raised her head from the military newspaper.

"To be precise, I come from a parallel time and space 500 years later." Wan'er said again.

"What is 'parallel time and space'?" Wu Zhao was confused.

"This is not something that can be explained clearly in a few sentences," Wan'er smiled slightly, "Just remember, Queen Mother, if I didn't come from a parallel time and space, I would be in a different situation now."

"What's the meaning of another scene?" Wu Zhao asked.

Wan'er was speechless.

She really felt that Wu Zhao was like a living body asking a hundred thousand questions.

Maybe smart people are curious?

"It's not clear now," Wan'er didn't intend to continue this topic, "Does the Queen Mother have a way to deal with the rebellion?"

Wu Zhao pouted embarrassingly, she was indeed full of curiosity about Wan'er's origin.

In fact, she was more worried about whether Wan'er would disappear suddenly, or rather, she wanted to know how to avoid that kind of thing from happening.

Hearing Wan'er's question, Wu Zhao felt that if he continued to parallelize or space-time, it would appear that he was in his position and was not planning for anything.

"The local army has already begun to suppress the rebellion, but the effect is not great. Now the rebels are disturbing the hearts of the people, and they are gathering people, and they have the potential to become stronger. What I mean is that the imperial court needs to send out a strong army to be effective." Wu Zhao said.

She said "still needed", which means that the "royal soldiers of the imperial court" have not yet been dispatched.

Wan'er thought for a while, and then she understood the key point: "The Empress Dowager is worried about Beijing's remarks?"

Wu Zhao frowned upon hearing this: "The Queen Mother! I'm not called the Queen Mother!"

She really didn't like Wan'er's distant address, and felt awkward.

Wan'er looked at her helplessly.

The two of them are discussing military and national affairs at the moment, is it really okay to use an intimate name?

Wu Zhao didn't like Wan'er's eyes, she was used to being aggressive, so she leaned over to grab Wan'er's hand.

Wan'er's heart rang out, and she subconsciously pulled her hand back.

Now there is no one else in the Zichen Palace, the two of them have even done that kind of thing here before, if Wu Zhao gets sexual...

"Not here!" Wan'er refused decisively.

The corner of Wu Zhao's mouth twitched, and he looked at Wan'er with "what's going on in your mind? Be sober!"

Wan'er blushed slightly, realizing that maybe she was thinking too much.

Wu Zhao couldn't pull her little hand, so she snorted: "I just want to say, but it's not from the court, don't call me Queen Mother, it sounds weird."

Wan'er was amused in her heart, with a serious expression on her face: "That's too...cough... Ah Zhao is not allowed to move."

Wu Zhao heard that she was finally willing to use the intimate name that belonged to two people to call him, with a gentle expression on his face, he still put on airs and snorted: "Would I be happy to touch you?"

How are you more than happy?Just never get tired of it!

Wan'er cursed in her heart.

"Get down to business!" Wu Zhao nodded to the military newspaper in Wan'er's hand.

Then he said with disgust: "You have been watching for a long time, but what do you see? Don't tell me, you don't know how to deal with it!"

When Wan'er heard this, she silently rolled her eyes in her heart.

Wu Zhao is this aggressive method, right?

Wan'er pretended that she didn't understand the meaning of Wu Zhao's words at all, and said indifferently: "A Zhao has always had a strong hand, so don't you still care about Beijing's remarks?"

"Don't provoke me," Wu Zhao said with slanted eyes, "No matter how strong I am, I can't help but care about the people of the world."

That's a good thing to say.

As an emperor, he knows how to care about the hearts of the world, so he will never make mistakes.

Wan'er nodded secretly.

"Azhao is most worried about the attitude of Li Tang's clan." Wan'er said slowly.

Wu Zhao's eyes revealed the approval of "No one knows me better than Qingqing".

Wan'er's cheeks were slightly hot, she pursed her lips, and said again: "The rebels first said that King Qin saved the country, in the name of today's emperor; then they changed into welcoming the King of Luling and returning to the court, and they have already lost their orthodox reputation; Now they claim to support Li Xian, the abolished prince, which shows that the hearts of the people are divided and vacillating. Even if such a group of people is powerful, without unified actions and command, they are no better than mobs. Ah Zhao can Have you ever imagined that a highly respected clan would lead troops to suppress the rebellion?"

Wu Zhao propped his chin at some point, listening to Wan'er's eloquent talk.She really felt that this kind of Wan'er was more touching than the bed.

Hearing what Wan'er said, Wu Zhao's eyes lit up——

Why haven't you thought about it? !

With a highly respected clan as the commander to suppress the rebellion, everyone in the world will understand: what the rebels did was not recognized by Li Tang's clan at all, let alone the clan's attitude.In this way, the troops sent by the imperial court are the army of justice, and the reason for the existence of the rebel army as the foundation no longer exists, which is a veritable rebellion.

"Then tell me, which clan should I use as commander in chief?" Wu Zhao asked with a smile in his eyes.

Wan'er winked at her: "Why don't you and I write it down separately?"

Wu Zhao smiled and said yes.

So the two turned their backs and each wrote a name on the note.

Turning around, unfolding two pieces of paper facing each other, looking at each other, then smiling at each other——

On the two notes, the same name was written in different handwriting: Li Xiaoyi.

Wu Zhao was in a good mood, and lightly poked Wan'er: "Isn't I very powerful?"

Wan'er nodded sincerely.

Duke Liang Li Xiaoyi is the nephew of Gao Zu, he is a cousin of the same generation as Emperor Taizong, he is also the highest seniority in Li Tang's clan, his reputation has always been good, and he is good at military affairs. characters.

What does it mean for him to lead the army to suppress the rebellion?

It means that Li Tang's clan does not recognize the rebels' reasons for raising troops, such as support or welcome back, and it also means that Li Tang's clan is on the side of the Queen Mother.

In this way, the rebels are really rebels.

Wan'er can see this because she is a time traveler, and she has the understanding of this period of history from later generations.

But Wu Zhao is not.

She is in authority, and she does not know what will happen in the future.What she relies on is her analysis and insight, and her profound and extraordinary insights.

Therefore, Wan'er sincerely admires her.

It is absolutely impossible for a person like Wu Zhao not to be an emperor.

Wu Zhao didn't think much of the fact that the commander of the rebel army was resolved. What she cared most about was Wan'er's heartfelt expression at the moment.

Seeing Wan'er nodding, Wu Zhao giggled, "I'm so good, does Qingqing have to reward me?"

As she spoke, she leaned over with her face sideways.

That means, let Wan'er kiss her.

Wan'er's gaze could not help but fixate on that pretty face, her lips moved unconsciously.

Wu Zhao's face is close at hand, as long as Wan'er leans forward a little, she can kiss her...

After realizing what was going on in her mind, Wan'er was embarrassed, raised her hand and pushed Wu Zhao's face away politely: "This is Ah Zhao's duty to deal with the government, how can I reward her?"

Wu Zhao's face was ruthlessly pushed away. She had never received such treatment in her life, and it was a lie to say that she was not angry.

With a cold snort, Wu Zhao folded his arms and turned his face away.

Wan'er didn't want to argue with her, so she turned the topic to political affairs: "The matter in Yangzhou has some clues, so what about Bozhou? Langya King Li Chong raised an army to rebel. Although his army is not as powerful as Xu Jingye and others, Bozhou is easy to defend and difficult to defend." If the imperial court sends troops to attack, I am afraid that food and grass will not be sustainable... This is a big problem."

But Wu Zhao didn't seem to hear it, still folded his arms and turned his back to Wan'er, and snorted again specially for the occasion.

Wan'er was quite speechless, and confronted Wu Zhao with folded arms.

In the end, Wu Zhao lost his patience first.

"Did I turn you off? You won't even give me a kiss!" She said angrily.

Wan'er actually wanted to explode, but she endured it.

"The empress dowager is used to domineering, why have you ever cared what others think?" Wan'er's voice was a bit cool.

Wu Zhao frowned.

What he said, where he was talking about "other people", was clearly saying that she, Shangguan Wan'er, had always been treated domineeringly by him.

Thinking about the past, Wan'er pursed her lips, and said quietly: "The queen mother always feels that what you do is right, and your decision is also right."

"Are you blaming me?" Wu Zhao raised an eyebrow.

"It's not a complaint...but I'm telling the Queen Mother that I'm not a person who has no intentions, and I don't want to be someone who is only watched by the Queen Mother." Wan'er's eyes darkened.

"If the Empress Dowager treats me as just a servant, and sends me out of the palace if she wants to, and desolates me as much as she wants, then she will give me more rewards and even more favors, then I should be grateful to the Empress Dowager. But ..."

Wan'er paused: "...But, I don't want to be the queen mother's servant, let alone live by the queen mother's favor. What I want to be is always the queen mother's lover, the only lover."

These words are what Wan'er has always wanted to say to Wu Zhao.

She was snubbed by Wu Zhao self-righteously and in the name of "for her good" three times, and Wan'er didn't want to experience it for the fourth time.

Wan'er doesn't care how Wu Zhao treats others.What she wants is for Wu Zhao to treat her like a lover.

What if Wan'er told Wu Zhao for the first time that she wanted to be her lover.

Wu Zhao was stunned when he heard this.

Her expression at this moment can really be described as "stunned".

Opening his mouth, Wu Zhaoxiang said something, but found that no matter what he said, he didn't seem to understand it.

She originally thought that the previous incident had been uncovered, but she did not expect that it would leave such a deep mark on Wan'er's heart.

Wan'er lowered her eyes and paused for a while, then decided to explain the matter thoroughly.

She raised her eyes and met Wu Zhao's surprised expression before she had time to put it away: "The previous two times the Queen Mother sent me in the cold, saying it was for my own good. But this time, the Empress Dowager kicked me out of the palace, dare you say that she didn't complain that I didn't tell my true origin?"

"I..." Wu Zhao couldn't continue.

Ask yourself, she is not without resentment towards Wan'er.

Who would dare to deceive Wu Zhao like this?

He is still the one who Wu Zhao cares about so much, who loves him dearly.

Wu Zhao had to admit that when she found out that Wan'er was deceiving her, she felt instinctive fear of Wan'er's true background, but more of it was a concealed resentment towards Wan'er.

"The Empress Dowager blamed me for lying, but she refused to even ask me, and she didn't even want to hear me explain half a sentence, so she arranged for me like this..."

Wan'er took a deep breath: "Is the Queen Mother trying to comfort me with soft words after thinking about it?"

Wu Zhao was taken into consideration by what she said, and his expression was extremely unnatural.

"However, once a person's heart is hurt, no matter how much tenderness and comfort, the injury will be hurt..."

Wu Zhao looked at Wan'er distressedly.

"The Empress Dowager only blamed me when she knew the truth, but have you ever thought about my suffering of not being able to tell the truth all these years?" Wan'er smiled wryly.

Wu Zhao frowned.

In fact, it is not difficult to imagine Wan'er's situation: after a prisoner who grew up in Ye court, he wanders among the dignitaries every day, and if he makes a mistake, he may lose his life.Let me ask, in such a situation, how dare Wan'er reveal her true background?

Wu Zhao put herself in her shoes and thought about it. If it was her, she would probably hide it more than Wan'er.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao felt even more distressed.

She wanted to hug Wan'er very much, and wanted to tell Wan'er that she didn't have to be afraid and worry about anything in the future.With her around, no one can hurt Wan'er.

Wan'er seemed to have seen through Wu Zhao's mind, and when Wu Zhao was trying to hug her, she stood up suddenly.

Wu Zhao hugged nothing, and looked up at Wan'er.

Wan'er stared down at Wu Zhao, with a faint smile in her eyes: "Who does Ah Zhao think I am?"

Wu Zhao's eyes deepened, and he said without hesitation, "Of course it's my lover."

The smile in Wan'er's eyes became stronger, as if spring water was blooming: "Does Ah Zhao know what is the most important thing between lovers?"

Wu Zhao didn't understand this kind of thing.

She thought for a while, then shook her head slowly.

Wan'er had already guessed this result, and said with a smile: "Respect and trust are the most important between lovers."

Wu Zhao suddenly realized and nodded.

She still has something to learn about Wan'er's theory of "time and space".

"So..." Wan'er said slowly, "Azhao respects me, and should respect my independent space."

"What is... space?" Wu Zhao was puzzled.

"The space is, from now on, if I want to live outside the palace, I will live outside the palace. Even you, Ah Zhao, can't force me."
