After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 2 My name is Li Lingyue

"First nine, two nine, close the door. Three nine, forty-nine, freeze the cracks. Five, nine, six, nine..."

On the dragon bed, Wu Zetian was lying on her side, patted the swaddling baby gently, and hummed an unknown nursery rhyme.

Maybe it was because she hadn't hummed it for a long time, and she forgot the words after humming halfway through. She shook her head with a smile on her face, bent down her jade head, and kissed her daughter's forehead.

The little princess slept very sweetly, with curved eyebrows, pink nose, and chubby little face... Even the decisive Wu Zetian couldn't help revealing the tenderness of motherhood.

Feeling being kissed, the little princess moved her eyelashes slightly, and slowly opened her eyes, her black and white eyes stared blankly at that kind and glamorous face.

The mother and daughter looked at each other again, and the little princess showed a childish smile obediently.

This smile hit Empress Wu's heart directly, and she couldn't help kissing the little princess' forehead.

What is it like to be kissed by a talented, resourceful, powerful, and ruthless woman who is the number one strong woman in ancient and modern times?
If it was half an hour ago, Li Lingyue would not have known it, but now she has experienced it more than once unforgettable.

Li Lingyue would never have imagined that she, a beautiful boss in the 21st century, somehow traveled to the Tang Dynasty because of a car accident, and became Wu Zetian's daughter.

When she was a baby, when she learned that her biological mother was Wu Zetian, she was so frightened that she burst into tears.

As a modern strong woman, she often regards Wu Zetian as her idol, and manages her company by learning some of her employment methods.

But if she is her daughter... forget it, it is a high-risk occupation.

She has consulted a lot of Wu Zetian's historical materials, one of which records that Wu Zetian strangled his newborn daughter to death in order to bring down the queen, and used this as a frame to successfully sit on the queen's throne.

When she was born, the maids who washed her body called Wu Zetian "Niangniang". You must know that in ancient times, not only queens, but all concubines and above could be called "Niangniang".

Li Lingyue thought that Wu Zetian was still Wu Zhaoyi, if that was the case, wouldn't she become that Princess Anding who died at birth?

Historically, there have been many controversies about the theory that Wu Zetian killed women.

One said that Wu Zetian strangled to death with his own hands, one said that she was murdered by the queen, and one said that she died young.

Anyway, regardless of whether Wu Zetian did it or not, the fate of Princess Anding is death anyway, and a dead princess is more beneficial to Wu Zetian.

Out of prejudice against history, Li Lingyue preconceived that she time traveled to become Wu Zetian's eldest daughter—Princess Anding.

It wasn't until she heard Wu Zetian rewarding the harem, and those imperial physicians knelt down and shouted: "Thank you, Empress, for the reward!", Li Lingyue turned from grief to joy, and completely relieved.

When she was carried on the dragon bed and Wu Zetian personally lifted the swaddling clothes to confirm her identity, her little head was still thinking hard about who she was?

Except for the eldest princess who died young, Wu Zetian had only one daughter.

Could it be...Could it be...I'm the one...

Li Lingyue remembered that Wu Zetian's only daughter was Princess Taiping, and her baby name seemed to be Li Lingyue too! ! !

God, it can't be such a coincidence!
Looking up at the benevolent Empress Wu, Li Lingyue's body trembled slightly, and she finally confirmed her identity.

God!I am actually the youngest daughter of Wu Zetian and Tang Gaozong, the "Princess Taiping" who is loved by thousands of people, has power for three generations, and almost owns the entire world.

About Princess Taiping, even if Li Lingyue didn't study history, she knew that Taiping was the princess among princesses. Throughout the 5000 years of China, in terms of great favor, great power, wealth, and deep influence, there is only Taiping alone. .

After the ecstasy, Li Lingyue quickly calmed down again.

She knew very well that the reason why Princess Taiping was favored all her life was because she had a powerful old lady, and all her glory and wealth were given by Wu Zetian in front of her.

Why did Wu Zetian spoil Taiping so much? Later generations have different opinions:
It is said that because Taiping's personality and appearance are similar to Wu Zetian, she is being cultivated as an empress dowager;
It is said that Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism, believed in reincarnation, and believed that Taiping was the eldest princess who died young, so she tried her best to make up for it;
It is also said that Wu Zetian felt that her four sons were afraid of her, and only here in Taiping could she feel the long-lost family affection.

Li Lingyue is not stupid, since she has become Taiping, she is bound to win Wu Zetian's favor.

You know, without the protection of Wu Zetian, she would have to marry to Tubo at the age of 13. The place is bitterly cold, with high altitude and strong ultraviolet rays. The living conditions were inconvenient in her era, let alone thousands of years ago. of ancient times.

With her mind set, Li Lingyue boldly flaunted her cuteness to Empress Wu.

While Wu Zetian was stroking her body, she took the initiative to stretch out her tender little hand, grabbed Empress Wu's finger, and held it in the palm of her hand, with the corners of her mouth turned up, showing a baby smile.

This simple move immediately surprised all the female officials including Empress Wu.

Cui Daizhao said in amazement: "Your Majesty, you see, the little princess has recognized people since she was born. It really is true that blood is thicker than water. She must be very filial when she grows up!"

Wu Zetian's heart trembled. Hearing this, and then thinking of the little princess' actions, it was difficult to hide the joy on her face, and the breath of maternal love became more and more overflowing.

She let the little princess grab her fingers, Cui Daizhao gently pulled the quilt, let the mother and daughter sleep on the same bed, and then quietly retreated to the side hall.

After an unknown amount of time, the horses neighing outside the hall woke up the sleeping mother and daughter.

Wu Zetian frowned, and called out coldly: "Come on!"

Cui Daizhao came in from the side hall, "Your Majesty, the servant is here!"

"Those who rode horses outside the hall will be rode to death immediately!" She ordered without hesitation.

"As ordered!"

Cui Daizhao got up, turned around and was about to open the palace door, when Li Zhi's voice came from outside.

"Meiniang! I'm back!"

Li Zhi got off his horse and quickly walked up the steps, only to find that the door of the palace was closed, and his four sons and a group of maids were standing at the door.

When the four princes saw Li Zhi coming back, they all knelt down to pay their respects: "I pay my respects to my father!"

"Why are you all here?" Li Zhi asked casually.

"Father, my son was overjoyed when he learned that his mother had given birth to a princess and sister, and he and his younger brothers came to say hello!" Crown Prince Li Hong replied respectfully.

"Then, you guys wait outside first!"

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he pushed open the door himself, and immediately closed the door as soon as he entered the hall, for fear that a little cold wind would leak in.

"The servant has seen His Majesty!" Cui Daizhao saw Li Zhi enter the room, and hurried forward to salute.

Li Zhi waved his hand and walked straight to the inner room.

"Meiniang! Meiniang!"

The urgent voice came from far to near, Li Zhi entered the inner bed, lifted the curtain of the bed, and saw Empress Wu mother and daughter lying on the couch.

As soon as the couple met each other, Wu Zetian didn't even think about it, grabbed a soft pillow, threw it towards Li Zhi, and said relentlessly:
"You cruel person, you know how to come back!"

The meaning of Wu Zetian's words seems to be blame, but it is actually inviting favor.

Originally it was she who refused to let Li Zhi be notified, but now she complained that Li Zhi didn't care about her and put herself on the weak side, making Li Zhi feel indebted to her.

Sure enough, Li Zhi apologized with a smile:

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I only found out about your labor today after leaving the city. If I had known earlier, I would definitely not have gone anywhere!"

Wu Zetian snorted, knowing enough was enough, and under Li Zhi's watchful eye, gently lifted the quilt, and said softly to the little princess:
"Mother's good daughter, take a look, you, Aye, are back!"

While speaking, Li Zhi couldn't wait to reach out and hug the little princess.

"Come on, Ah Ya give me a hug!"

"Be careful, if you cry, I can't spare you!" Seeing his hands and feet, Wu Zetian looked very nervous.

"Hey, I can save it, I can save it!"

Li Lingyue stared wide-eyed at this man wearing a dragon robe and a goatee, and was already complaining crazily in her heart:
Let me go, it really is the famous "rake ear" emperor in Chinese history, father, if you can make a three-pointer, your wife will not kill her son to seize the throne in the future, and she will wear a lot of green hats for you!

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, many people in later generations said that he was an incompetent emperor who was strictly controlled by his wife.

In fact, that's not the case. Li Zhi is Li Shimin's ninth son. According to the succession system of the Tang Dynasty, he would never be emperor anyway.

But in the end, he insisted on inheriting the Datong from Li Shimin. Apart from the help of his uncle, Changsun Wuji, he himself was quite black-bellied.

To give the simplest example, he was able to use his Lao Tzu's woman as his own princess under the opposition of everyone. This was the means.

Moreover, after succeeding to the throne, he secretly supported Wu Zetian to fight in the palace, attacked the Guanlong family headed by his uncle by abolishing the latter, and mercilessly removed these powerful people who helped him to the top from the core of power. This is the real him .

Just a year before Wu Zetian gave birth to Taiping, he thought about abolishing the queen, but after the matter was revealed, he dumped the blame on Shangguanyi who drafted the edict to abolish the empress.

Li Zhi didn't know that the little princess was slandering him, seeing her looking at him cutely, and then winking at her daughter, she didn't look like an emperor.

After hugging for a long time, Li Zhicai gently put the little princess back into Wu Zetian's arms. He sat by the bed by himself, teasing the little princess, and said to Empress Wu:

"Meiniang, give our daughter a baby name, it's easy to give birth to!"

"The child has just been born, why did he choose his name so early?"

As soon as Wu Zetian said the words, she immediately realized that the husband must be worried that the little princess would follow in the footsteps of the eldest daughter. Thinking of this, her nose turned sore for no reason, she turned her face away, and said quietly:

"You are Aye, just take it yourself, why ask me?"

Li Zhi laughed jokingly and said, "If I take the animal names of cats and dogs like the common people, you should annoy me again!"

Wu Zetian didn't answer, and was silent for a while, then turned to Li Zhi and said:

"Just call her... Li Lingyue!"

"Li Lingyue?" Li Zhi said the name in his mouth, a little puzzled.

Li Lingyue in Empress Wu's arms was surprised when she heard this name.

really!God is not kidding me, I, Li Lingyue, have really become Taiping Princess Li Lingyue.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Li Zhi ask: "Meiniang, what I don't understand is why you use the word 'Lingyue'?"

Not only Li Zhi was curious, Xiao Lingyue wanted to know the meaning of the name even more than he did.

"You're stupid!" Wu Zetian gave Li Zhi a look, and said arrogantly:
"Of course it means 'the mountains and rivers in the court, the sun and the moon shine together'. My daughter Wu Meiniang must have a famous name!"

It turns out that this is the case, as expected of a talented Wu talent with both talent and appearance. Li Lingyue sighed: No wonder Wu Zetian later changed his name to "Wu Zhao". , all of them are domineering!
"Success, let's call her Li Lingyue! Haha!" Li Zhi readily agreed.

Li Lingyue, who was still a baby, couldn't help but vomit.

It seems that starting today, I am no longer Li Lingyue, but Wu Zetian's daughter, Princess Taiping——Li Lingyue!
