In the Zichen Hall, a newly replaced red-bottomed dark tapestry was laid. Even in this late winter season, which is getting colder every day, the inside of the hall is full of spring and warmth.It is always easy to blur the boundaries of warm and cold seasons here.

Taiping personally poured a cup of tea for Empress Wu and handed it over, with a look of ingenuity on his brows: "Mother has been taking care of herself for a while, and her appearance has become more and more beautiful!" At this point, she turned her eyes and glanced at Shangguan Wan'er, with a smile on her lips, "It all depends on sister Wan'er taking good care of her." She didn't forget to say something to please Wan'er.

Wan'er bowed her head and saluted, and her lips curled into a smile: "Where, this is the deep blessing of the Queen of Heaven, and it depends on Master Xue's careful care!" Her voice was steady, but what she said was absolutely correct Heart.The heart for Empress Wu and the heart for Princess Taiping.

"Master Xue" naturally refers to Xue Huaiyi, which is an honorific name.Xue Huaiyi won the heart of Empress Wu, so such a title would naturally be in Empress Wu's heart; and Xue Huaiyi was "filial piety" to Empress Wu by Princess Taiping. Since Empress Wu is fond of Xue Huaiyi, does it also depend on the credit of Princess Taiping?

Shangguan Wan'er was so considerate, Empress Wu also felt more and more at ease.After a knowing smile with Wan'er, he turned his eyes to the palace to meet his daughter again: "I haven't seen you coming into the palace for a long time, but once you have a son-in-law, you don't want your mother?" His eyebrows stretched, and he made a little joke with his daughter , made gossip.There was another pause here, Empress Wu frowned slightly, "Taiping, you seem to be thinner than when I saw you a while ago."

Hearing his mother's concern, Taiping's heart warmed up, and seeing his mother mention his son-in-law Xue Shao, he couldn't help but arouse many emotions.Where is it that when you have a son-in-law, you forget the others. In the eyes of others, you only see her as the princess and the son-in-law.

However, after experiencing Princess Chengyang and many other things, Princess Taiping no longer had the clear state of mind she had when she was a girl. Well, isn't it... Missing your mother so you lost weight?" With a smile on his lips, Taiping rubbed his arms against Empress Wu's heart, "Mother blamed her daughter for not coming here for a while?" She mumbled obediently The corners of her lips made a tricky look, and a sly look flashed across her clear eyes, and she deliberately dragged out her voice, "Didn't I take care of my mother having Master Xue, and I'm afraid I don't want to see Erchen, so... Intentionally avoiding mother's sight, leaving mother and that sweetheart a clean world of flower fragrance? Then..."

Empress Wu was amused by her daughter's naughty appearance, and her brows relaxed, but her meticulous thoughts did not relax for a moment: "Your little mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter!" Feng Mou, this time her tone became serious, "Mother thought you came to the palace for another matter."

Taiping was taken aback, although her mother's tone was still steady and indifferent, but she naturally understood in her heart what the other thing her mother meant was referring to.

The biggest thing today, and the thing that is most directly related to Taiping and should cause Taiping to think about it, is naturally the connection behind the so-called "rebellion" case of Li Tang's clan!

After all, Taiping is the princess of the Li family. Her surname is Li. Faced with the people in her clan being massacred by Empress Wu and becoming the sad victims of Empress Wu's pursuit of power, it stands to reason that she should have resentment towards her mother in her heart!

but……

After a moment of silence, Taiping raised his eyes but curled his lips and smiled: "Mother, don't worry." With only these four words, she paused.Soft eyes subconsciously glanced at Shangguan Wan'er beside Mo Li, since Empress Wu didn't avoid Wan'er when she said that just now, so naturally you don't have to worry too much about Wan'er when you tell Empress Wu about Taiping, "Daughter... She will always be a mother's daughter." Shan Lai's bright eyes narrowed, and there was a floating light flowing in the eyes, and she looked peacefully at Empress Wu who had a kind face but hidden deep meaning, her voice and expression settled.

Some intentions are hidden between the words and sentences. Although they cannot be expressed directly, the speaker has the intention and the listener also pays attention.Empress Wu had a solid foundation in her heart, and the last few strands of concern also dissipated: "Mother knows." She raised her hand to stroke her daughter's long black hair, and made a calm expression.

In the warm embrace of his mother, Taiping closed his eyes, and took advantage of this moment to reorganize his mind.Empress Wu said unhurriedly again: "Mother, there is one thing that needs your help, my good daughter."

The voice was extremely willful, like a loving mother gossiping with her intimate little daughter.

After a peaceful meal, he folded his body in Empress Wu's arms again, and nodded slightly to Empress Wu: "What is there for the mother, do you need my daughter's help?"
