[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun

Wan'er knelt outside Chengqing Palace, uncertain about her future.

In fact, she didn't quite believe that Princess Taiping could really do anything for her, such as asking for forgiveness from Empress Wu.

Even if she is favored like Princess Taiping, once Empress Wu decides, who can change it?

Wan'er didn't believe that the mind of that famous female emperor in history would be changed for someone else, even if that other person was her daughter.

and many more!

Wan'er's thoughts froze.

She suddenly remembered that what she was in at this time was not the historical Tang Dynasty she was familiar with, but a parallel time and space...

In the history of this parallel time and space, can Empress Wu become a female emperor?

This is a problem.

"Are you that little official slave?" A question came from above his head suddenly.

Wan'er was startled, raised her head, and met the faces of the two palace servants.

They are all in their thirties, and the clothes on their bodies show that they are not low-level.

Probably because they boasted that their status was higher in front of Wan'er, so the way they looked at Wan'er was condescending.

It's really a hierarchical society!

If the superior wants to punish him kneeling, he will punish him by kneeling, no reason is needed.

Even the palace servants who are slaves have to be divided into ranks.

Wan'er pursed her lips——

She doesn't like it.

"Yes! I have met the two older sisters." Wan'er replied respectfully.

What if you don't like it?In order to survive, always endure.

Unexpectedly, the two palace servants snorted and said disdainfully: "Sister? You can't call me that!"

If you dare to call her "sister", people still look down on her!

Wan'er had no choice but to lower her head again.

The two palace maids directed the little maid to put a basin of clear water, soap pan and other things in front of Wan'er.

"After washing your face, follow us!" They instructed Wan'er.

wash your face?

Wan'er hesitated.

She remembered the act of Mrs. Zheng grabbing dust and smearing it on her face before taking her to see Xu Jieyu.

Wan'er knew that her face was not bad, and Zheng's move obviously didn't want others to see her outstanding face, and she was more worried that someone who wanted to see the traces of Shangguan on this face would find a way to kill herself. disaster.

But that's not all.

Wan'er thinks about before and after——

From Xia Jin's strange reaction when she was still in her infancy, to Xu Jieyu's strange reaction when she saw her before, and of course Empress Wu...

That Empress Wu, when she saw her for the first time, what she did was to rush up and wipe off the dust on her face?

This kind of thing, she commanded any of the palace servants and internal eunuchs to do it, why should she condescend to do it herself?

If someone told Wan'er before time travel that it was the first time she saw Empress Wu that Empress Wu had done such a thing to her, she would not believe it no matter what.

"What's wrong? Are you deaf?" Seeing that Wan'er hadn't moved for a long time, the two palace servants scolded impatiently.

Wan'er bit her lip and asked, "Excuse me, where are you taking me?"

The two palace servants were quite surprised when they heard her question.

In this huge palace, they belonged to the top group of slaves, and they knew a lot about what a "servant" should be like.

No slave has ever dared to ask such a question in such a tone.

"Do whatever you are asked to do! There is so much nonsense!" one of the palace servants shouted angrily.

It seemed that if they hadn't been wary of Empress Wu's orders, they would really have made Wan'er suffer a bit, so that she would know what "respect" meant.

"What's the matter?" A slightly shrill voice came from behind them.

Hearing the sound, the two palace servants hurriedly turned around, leaned over and said, "Mr. Zhao, why are you here in person?"

The inner eunuch surnamed Zhao waved his hand, then passed them and came to Wan'er.

"Little lady, wash your face quickly, don't keep the empress waiting for too long." His voice was kind.

"Is it the Empress who wants to see me?" Wan'er couldn't help asking with her face raised.

The person in front of him was a fat inner eunuch in his forties.

The color of his clothes is not low-grade!

Wan'er thought.

"That's right," said the inner eunuch Zhao, "the empress will give you an order. We can't delay it. It's our duty to be a servant."

Although Wan'er didn't like the way he opened his mouth and kept his mouth shut, his attitude was much more acceptable than the previous two.

"Yes." Wan'er replied, then she rubbed herself in front of the basin of clear water, and was about to wash her face.

Zhao Neijian saw that she was kneeling on the ground, and his eyes flashed playfully.

"Little lady, please get up and wash your hands! Since the empress has given you grace, wouldn't it be a violation of your grace to kneel down like this?" He said.

In fact, after suffering a loss, Wan'er had a few more eyesight, and she was afraid of being caught by these people, so she refused to get up to take a shower.

Now listening to Zhao Neijian's words, I secretly sigh in my heart that the people in the palace speak in the same way, and they never forget to please the master at all times.

"Thank you, sir!" Wan'er thanked.

"Don't dare!" Zhao Neijian's eyes quickly flicked across Wan'er's eyebrows, and then he looked away, as if he had never done such a move.

What Wan'er didn't know was that the eunuch named Zhao Ying was Zhao Ying, and he was the most powerful person around Empress Wu.

As for the two palace servants before, when they saw Zhao Ying appearing, they realized that he was sent by Empress Wu.

In this way, it can be seen that the Empress Empress attaches great importance to the little girl in front of her.

Then they were extremely disrespectful to the little girl before, would they...

The two palace servants felt uneasy.

After that, they didn't dare to make a sound, as if they let Zhao Ying decide everything.

Zhao Ying is not polite either.

He urged Wan'er to wash up, and ordered the maid to beat the dust off Wan'er's body, and then took Wan'er to the palace where Empress Wu rested.

Zhao Ying led the way, Wan'er followed behind him, and the two palace servants followed Wan'er.

The shock in their hearts still hasn't dissipated at this moment——

After Wan'er cleansed her face, she showed her true face, which made them marvel at how beautiful this little girl is, and even more surprised at the girl's eyebrows... No matter how she looks at her, she seems to have known each other.

When Wan'er was brought to Empress Wu, Princess Taiping was still there.

Seeing the woman in the gorgeous dress sitting in the middle from a distance, Wan'er's heart couldn't help slipping to her throat.

Empress Wu's aura was so strong that Princess Taiping became a dispensable existence.

Wan'er felt nervous when facing this woman who had given her power off at the first meeting.

Thinking that she is a superior person, but she is as humble as nothing, she can take her own life anytime, anywhere and for any reason, which makes Wan'er feel terrified.

But he could only bite the bullet and kneel down to worship her.

Wan'er praised, and her small body bowed down.

Above, Empress Wu didn't let her get up for a long time.

In other words, since Wan'er appeared in sight, Empress Wu has not moved her eyes away——

She watched Wan'er walking towards her, watching Wan'er bow down to herself.

The difference is that when Wan'er walked over, she stared closely at the center of Wan'er's brows; but when Wan'er bowed down, she could only stare at the top of Wan'er's hair.

No one knew that even if she stared at Wan'er's hair, what Empress Wu's eyes dangled was the... cinnabar mole between Wan'er's eyebrows.

In the huge hall, the air seemed to be stagnant.

"A Niang?" Except Princess Taiping, no one dared to remind Empress Wu.

Empress Wu suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes still filled with confusion.

"Get up." Her voice was calm as usual.

However, there were ups and downs in her heart that no one knew about.

Wan'er thanked her and got up.

But still bowed his head, not daring to face the meaning of the superior.

"Raise your head." Empress Wu ordered.

Wan'er's lips were pressed into a line, and she finally raised her head.

The four eyes met, Wan'er lost her mind again because of Empress Wu's dazzling demeanor, while Empress Wu lost her mind on the cinnabar mole on the center of her eyebrow.

As the only daughter and extremely favored, Princess Taiping still knows a little about her mother.

She immediately realized that the focus of her mother's attention was the same as when she first saw Shangguan Wan'er, the cinnabar mole on the center of Shangguan Wan'er's eyebrows.

Of course, Wan'er is not only outstanding in this point, she exudes a calm demeanor at a young age, as well as a bookish air that cannot be concealed no matter what she wears, Princess Taiping likes to see it very much.

Princess Taiping couldn't help curling her lips: looking at Wan'er is really a pleasure.

"What's your name?" Empress Wu asked indifferently.

That posture, it seemed that she didn't care about Wan'er's name at all, but just cast an extra look at a cat and dog on the side of the road.

Wan'er was depressed because of Empress Wu's indifferent tone.

This is probably the pride of the superiors, right?

Those who are slaves must regard her as heaven; and she is only a slave, a cat and a dog.

"Wan'er." Wan'er replied with downcast eyes.

She still didn't say her last name.

Wan'er knew that with Empress Wu's ability, it was extremely easy to know that she was Shangguanyi's granddaughter.

At this moment, Empress Wu must know her identity and name.

But, knowing it, she still treats her like a plaything!

"Shangguan Wan'er?" Empress Wu suddenly laughed.

"Isn't it 'Joyful in Jinxi, mellow and good in time'? Shangguanyi's level is no more than that!" Empress Wu Yan laughed.

The complexions of Wan'er and Princess Taiping changed at the same time.

This poem is a line in Su Wu's "Leave a Wife" in the Han Dynasty. It means that the husband and wife are lingering in love and happy in the present.

But if this poem is used to explain Wan'er's name, it will have a sense of obscenity, and it will be a certain degree of insult to Wan'er.

"Your Majesty Shangguan is knowledgeable and talented, how could..." Wan'er was a little angry at Empress Wu, and couldn't help but refute.

However, only halfway through, Wan'er suddenly realized who she was facing——

In the face of the person who killed Shangguan's entire family, she actually said these words, and asked him loudly where did he know that her name should be explained in that way... Isn't she crazy?

"Why didn't you say it? Huh?" Empress Wu smiled instead of anger, as if she was very interested in the fact that this little girl had the courage to refute her.

"Empress, I think that the famous sentence in the "Book of Songs" is very suitable for Wan'er's name..." Princess Taiping said.

But he only spoke halfway before being swept over by Empress Wu, who dared not make a sound.

Hasn't A Niang read "The Book of Songs"?Do you need to remind me?

Princess Taiping could understand the meaning in the queen mother's eyes.

In fact, she just wanted to rescue Wan'er, and she didn't mean to underestimate the queen mother!

Seeing Wan'er bit her lip and stopped speaking, Empress Wu became even more interested, and said with a faint smile, "You want to say that this palace is ignorant of learning and doesn't understand poetry?"

Wan'er suddenly felt like a light was on her back, behind the smiling face of Empress Wu, she felt it was a sharp blade.

"Slaves don't dare!" Wan'er said hurriedly.

"Is it not possible, or dare not?" Empress Wu deliberately asked again.

Wan'er was in a difficult situation this time.

It is too difficult for a person who was well-read and well-educated before time-traveling to admit that she is uneducated after time-traveling and has been taught many principles of poetry and prose by her mother since she was babbling!

Empress Wu took the time to look at Wan'er's embarrassment, and then caught a glimpse of her daughter's anxious look for Wan'er, Empress Wu's face darkened.

"Since you know that you know little, you should study more!" Empress Wu snorted coldly.

"Qin Hui! Take her to learn what she should learn!" Empress Wu ordered.

Qin Hui, who was standing by the side, hurried forward, received Yi's decree, and forced Wan'er to retreat.

Seeing this, Princess Taiping was in a hurry——

It was obvious that there was Zhao Yingzai, who was more trustworthy and more appropriate, why did the queen mother ask Qin Hui to take Wan'er there?

Does the queen mother have any deep meaning?

Princess Taiping stared at Wan'er's frail body being dragged away by Qin Hui, feeling anxious.

Wan'er, is she actually Shangguanyi's granddaughter?

Will the queen mother treat her...
