[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun

Princess Taiping led the imperial edict, and followed Zhao Ying to the outside of Yanju Palace with her followers.

She intuited that Zhao Ying's appearance today was too formal, so formal that people had to think about it a few times.In addition, this accompanying Fengchan Taishan made Princess Taiping feel that her mother's prestige was getting more and more serious, and she no longer dared to act like a baby to her mother easily.

Because of these, Taiping came to the Yanju Palace, instead of rushing in as before, he smiled and said to Zhao Ying: "Please inform the Queen Mother."

Zhao Ying was quite surprised, not knowing when the little princess changed her temper.

However, the wind direction in the entire palace is changing day by day. Zhao Yingjiu served by Empress Wu's side. The expression on his face won't change.

So Zhao Ying gracefully bowed to Taiping, said "Your Highness, please wait a moment" on his lips, and went inside to report.

Taiping didn't have to wait long, when the voice of "The Empress Announces Princess Taiping sees you" came from inside.

Taiping secretly raised his eyebrows, thinking that Auntie's style is really getting bigger and bigger now.

Even though she was thinking like this in her heart, Taiping didn't dare to show half a joke, she left her followers outside the hall, and she walked in by herself.

When she arrived in the hall, the first thing she saw was Prince Li Hong standing respectfully in the hall with his hands and head down.

Taiping was slightly surprised, thinking when did Brother Hong come?Still like this... the posture of Chaotang to deal with it.

No!It's not just the meaning of Chaotang's response, but also some... frightened and cowering?

Could it be that Brother Hong did something wrong and was scolded by A Niang?

Taiping murmured in his heart that people had already arrived in the hall.

Sensing the complicated and incomprehensible meaning in Li Hong's sneaky glance, Taiping's doubts deepened.

She thought that the queen mother might be in a bad mood, so she showed a more respectful attitude, just like a courtier facing the queen.

"My son, Princess Taiping, kowtow to your mother!" Taiping Yiguo saluted.

Then, she heard Empress Wu snorting from above.

Then, I heard Empress Wu sneer again: "Why are you so stupid? Like an old man!"

The same words, in the ears of the two people present, are two completely different feelings——

Taiping immediately knew that her mother's mood was not that bad, her face was filled with joy, and she couldn't help but look up at her mother's queen.

On the contrary, Li Hong had a bitter expression on his face. Standing there, he felt that he seemed to be a superfluous existence, so he became more and more trembling.

When Taiping raised his head, he happened to see Empress Wu raising her right hand, beckoning to her.

Taiping smiled and walked over.

Pulled to the front by Empress Wu, she hugged her again and squeezed her face.

This was the way Taiping was used to by her mother, so she felt relieved.

Empress Wu patted Taiping's face, asked a few gossips, looked up and saw Li Hong was still standing there, she seemed to remember him.

Xiang Xiang Taiping said: "I announced you to come because there is something related to you."

As he spoke, he turned to Li Hong: "Your sister is here, and you should tell her about your plans!"

Speaking of the latter, there is already a sense of sharpness in the words.

Li Hong instinctively shivered.

He raised his eyes to meet Shang Taiping's puzzled gaze, feeling uneasy again in his heart.

But in the end, those principles that I thought I had prevailed.

"Tianhou Mingjian!" Li Hong gritted his teeth and said, "This is a military and state affairs, and it should be decided by the father and the prime ministers through consultation!"

Even someone who is ignorant of state affairs such as Taiping, just from Li Hong's inadvertent address, can hear the unusual meaning——

Corresponding to the "Queen of Heaven" is the Emperor and His Majesty. Since we say "Father Emperor", why not "Mother Queen" but "Tianhou"?

The separation of relatives and estrangement, as well as grievances and grievances, are too obvious.

Brother Hong, isn't this adding fuel to the fire?

Taiping looked at Li Hong worriedly, and secretly glanced at his mother's expression.

Sure enough, seeing her mother's queen, her complexion was faintly livid.

"Queen of Heaven? Emperor Father?" Empress Wu sneered, "Is this how the masters of the East Palace taught you the manners?"

As soon as Li Hong said the words, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.When he was questioned by his mother at this time, there was a "thunder" in his mind.

He suddenly felt that the world was spinning in front of him, and the long-lost feeling of dizziness due to illness and nausea in his chest came again.

After finally regaining his composure, he braced himself and bowed to Empress Wu, saying, "It's my son's fault, not the fault of the masters. If the queen mother punishes me, please punish my son!"

Empress Wu remained cold: "How to punish, this palace has its own decision."

She glanced at Taiping who was still ignorant and ignorant beside her, and her heart flashed unbearably.

However, when he turned to Li Hong again, the unbearable look in his eyes disappeared.

"Your father is sick now. As the eldest son, you should know how to share your father's worries instead of worrying your father. Do you understand?" Empress Wu said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Empress Wu had exposed the previous incident so easily, Li Hong didn't want to let it go, and he couldn't see Empress Wu being so domineering and authoritarian, opening her mouth to speak.

Empress Wu saw through it long ago, and sneered sharply: "What? Are you still unwilling to serve your father's illness?"

Li Hong has been weak since he was a child, and has been under the power of his mother for many years. He still wants to struggle intellectually, but his body has already reacted most instinctively——

He knelt on the ground with a "plop", and said in a trembling voice: "I dare not!"

Empress Wu's expression softened a little.

She waved her hand impatiently: "Go see your father!"

Li Hong knelt on the ground, and the cold and hard feeling came from his knees, which made his heart go cold.

It turned out that facing his mother, he was far weaker than he thought.

Looking at the back of Li Hong leaving resentfully, Taiping felt that he was very desolate, and couldn't help but feel pity in his heart.

After Li Hong left, there was a long silence in the huge palace.

Thinking that the queen mother must be in a bad mood at the moment, Taiping didn't dare to ask what Li Hong didn't say before, although she knew that it must be related to herself, and it was still a major matter related to the court.

Taiping endured the curiosity like a cat's paw scratching patiently, and carefully put a sticker on Empress Wu's arms.

Empress Wu gave him a wink.

Taiping giggled, knelt up obediently, walked around behind Empress Wu, and pressed her two paws on Empress Wu's shoulders.

"I've been running all the way, isn't Madam tired?" While speaking, she massaged Empress Wu's shoulders moderately.

Empress Wu was pinched by her shoulders, snorted in her nasal cavity, then closed her eyes, and let her daughter serve her.

After kneading for a while, Empress Wu's complexion returned to normal.

She patted the back of Taiping's hand: "Okay, don't be obedient! I know you are filial!"

Taiping smiled and said: "Be filial to Auntie, my child likes it the most!"

Then, he gradually stopped, and still sat down beside Empress Wu.

Empress Wu stared at Taiping for a while, then pinched the face that was more and more similar to her youth.

"Taiping is a filial daughter, and A Niang is also a filial daughter." Empress Wu said quietly.

Taiping blinked, and asked: "Did A Niang think of my grandmother?"

"That's right! It's been five years since your grandmother passed away." Empress Wu said with deep eyes, as if she was lost in memories.

At the beginning of Taiping, I didn't dare to interrupt my mother's longing. After thinking about it, Fang asked again: "Is A Niang wanting to pray for my grandmother's deeds?"

Empress Wu recovered from her memories.

She didn't answer her daughter's question immediately, but looked at her daughter's face steadily.

Taiping was stared at by her again and again, and he felt dazed, and he didn't know what she meant, so he had to forcefully let her watch.

Seeing her daughter's cute and cute appearance, Empress Wu couldn't help leaning over and caressing her little face again.

He rubbed Taiping's face into a ball.

Taiping could only have his mouth flattened and his face pinched, looking innocently at his mother.

Empress Wu couldn't help but burst out laughing at her helpless expression, patted her face again, and said with a smile: "Taiping is really my mother's sweetheart!"

This sentence is completely from the heart.

Taiping was infected by her mother's emotions. The natural mother-daughter relationship, coupled with the love from her mother, made her feel hot——

"My mother wants the child to do anything, and the child is willing!"

Empress Wu didn't expect to get such an answer from her, she was slightly startled, Fang He said: "Taiping must remember, in the future, except for A Niang, you are not allowed to give your heart and soul to anyone, remember? "

Taiping heard the words and trembled slightly.

Her mother's words reminded her of the really unpleasant conversation with Du Suran a month ago.

And the thing that Li Hong didn't say just now...

Several facts proved that an indescribable feeling passed through Taiping's heart.

She hesitated for a while before slowly nodding: "I remember."

Empress Wu didn't expect to let her daughter do what she wanted in the future just by relying on her own words.

The children of the heavenly family often have to bear a hundred times more than ordinary wealthy families.If she had a choice, she would rather have her own daughter, who doesn't need to know anything to live a carefree life.

Sighing silently, Empress Wu looked at her daughter and said, "Aniang has a difficult matter right now, and I need Taiping to relieve her worries."

Seeing that she spoke solemnly, Taiping hurriedly said, "Aniang, what do you want me to do?"

Empress Wu stared at Taiping: "Aniang wants to become a monk for a period of time, recite scriptures and fast, and pray for your grandmother. But your father is ill, and so many state affairs cannot be left alone. Aniang can't get away. Taiping wishes Are you unwilling to be a substitute for A Niang?"

Taiping didn't respond for a long time.

Empress Wu didn't think it was disobedient, she still looked at her with a gentle smile: "Isn't Taiping unwilling?"

Taiping shook his head and asked, "Aniang, do you want me to become a monk, fast and chant scriptures, and pray for my grandmother?"

"Yes!" Empress Wu said.

As she spoke, she stroked her daughter's heart: "Do you still remember that when you were a child, your grandmother loved you the most..."

Taiping's eyes were dumbfounded, and some unpleasant memories flooded his mind.

Empress Wu also thought of a certain past event, her eyebrows twitched, and there was a sense of loss in her voice: "If Taiping is not willing to share the worries for A Niang, then A Niang will have no choice but to..."

"No!" Taiping suddenly shook his head and said, "I am willing to share my worries for A Niang!"

Empress Wu turned pale, hugged her daughter, and kissed her on the cheek: "My mother knew that Taiping will not disappoint my mother."

Taiping's face was flushed immediately, and it was difficult to push away his mother, so he had to lower his head slightly, as if he was a little embarrassed.
