Four Nights Red House

In the early morning of the eternal night, the air is moist and seems to be wrapped in a spring rain that is about to come out. The round of rising sun hanging in the sky is still tender red, and its light and heat have not been fully exerted, and there are still some night lights around. Thin and cold.

The peonies in Taichu Palace are already in full bloom, but this year's peonies don't seem to be growing well. The tender petals are so unbearable, but it's just a slight wind blowing In the past, there were peony corollas scattered by the wind in the peony bushes, and the brightly colored petals withered wantonly in the breeze. The ruler of Xiang Tianque is a silent and tacit communication between the world and nature.

A ray of morning light as clear as glass pierced through the dim vision, and the morning sun broke dawn, and the majestic palace corridor woke up at this moment. The golden roof of glass and the palace road of white jade everywhere showed a kind of emperor's majesty.People walking in it unconsciously felt a sense of depression.

Everything is very quiet, but with a burst of lingering rhythm from far to near, this tranquility is dissipated by the incomparably high-profile woman in a scarlet dress and a peony cloud temples.Taiping came all the way, heading straight to Empress Wu's bedroom, and just passed by regardless of it, her brows and eyes narrowed from the soft humility and cuteness of the little bird in the past. Today, her face is covered with thin ice, her whole body They all seemed to be covered with a layer of frost and snow, making them look cold and terrifying.

"His Royal Highness..." The ladies in the palace chattered, knowing that Taiping would definitely run afoul of empress Wu in this way, but seeing Taiping's gesture, they did not dare to stop him too much.He had no choice but to trot all the way to hurriedly follow behind and on both sides of Taiping, calling her from time to time, hoping to call back the princess's sense of reason.

But it is true that all these are in vain, no matter how anxious the maids are, they still can't stop Taiping's slightly arrogant pace.

Taiping's heart is actually very chaotic, since Xue Shao's death, her heart has never been calm!She didn't say how sad, sinking and unable to extricate herself, she just felt a fire in her heart and held her breath. This fire and anger cannot be dispelled without Empress Wu!She is eager to see her mother, she wants to ask her mother clearly, but she should ask her mother why she can't consider her daughter's mood and situation, and in a while, the one who thinks she loves her behind her back and dies After killing Princess Chengyang, the same man behind her back also gave her death to her son-in-law for the purpose of seeking political power!Such a mother really makes Taiping feel terrible, she can be decisive and domineering towards her daughter, and she can also ignore her daughter at all for her own current interests!Is this more maternal love, or more political interests?

The more Taiping thought about it, the more headache he got, he couldn't figure it out inside and out!With such an uncontrollable mood of entanglement, she sat in the princess mansion for a while after waking up last night, raising her eyes in panic, looking at the lonely, empty and beautiful mansion, the depression in her heart became deeper and deeper. concentrated!Finally, this long-accumulated affection was forced to an extreme that could no longer be accumulated, and with burning enthusiasm, she immediately left the house and entered the palace, rushing to see her mother.

The rising sun dissolves gold, and the willows on both sides of the palace wall weave diagonally, and the shadows of new flowers and trees are shaken, and at the same time, it also messes up Taiping's already messy heart!Taiping finally stopped in front of a Xuan paper lady's screen in the depths of Pixiang Hall.There was a moment of silence on the pretty and reddish face, and then she suddenly waved her sleeves and raised her hand, and tore up the big picture of a lady with a few "clusters"!

Seemingly still not satisfied with this, she subconsciously raised her eyes to look for it, and kicked down the double-layered peony-shaped incense tripod beside her.

Princess Taiping is not a pampered person, she has always behaved well and with proper etiquette, she doesn't know why she is in such an abnormal posture today, not only has no identity, but also tends to make trouble for no reason.She was never like this, never was!

People from the left and right palaces hurriedly approached to dissuade him, amidst the noisy and anxious voices, Taiping suppressed his emotions, restrained the gloomy anxiety in his heart a few times.When he nodded his head, he accidentally saw the picture of a lady on the ground that was torn up by himself. The originally delicate and elegant meticulous brushwork was turned into debris on the masonry floor.

From the eyes to the heart, there was a wave of infatuation in Taiping.I thought to myself, maybe this is the difference between me and you. If you have spiritual consciousness, you must always want to get out of the dead picture scroll, experience this glitzy and prosperous world by yourself, and read all kinds of things in the world. but I always want to walk into a world of undisturbed paintings, to avoid the many invisible disturbances in the ordinary life, and to get rid of the shackles that have been firmly put on my body since I was born... A drop of rouge and tears is unexpected Danfeng's eyes suddenly overflowed, thinking about it, Taiping burst into tears.

With Princess Taiping's silence and silent tears, the aggressive atmosphere calmed down a little at this moment.But the tranquility born in this way still makes people feel cramped.

The noise outside was so loud that Empress Wu, who was paying respects to the Buddha in the Temple of Fragrance, naturally noticed it.At this time, I suddenly saw that a Hunan curtain connected to the inner part of the small hall was raised, and there was a scent of sandalwood that stirred the nostrils. Empress Wu walked slowly and gracefully, from the inside to the outside.

Because of the backlight, Taiping didn't see the expression on her mother's face when she raised her eyes. She watched her mother gradually close the distance with her, and then her mother waved her hands

, Quietly retreated the cadres around him, leaving Shangguan Wan'er alone to accompany him: "What's the matter in such a hurry?" The phoenix eyes that were bright and eager looked at Taiping, and caught off guard. Asked in a calm tone.

Listening to the tone of voice, it was not possible to refute Empress Wu's joy and anger, but as the distance continued to get closer, Taiping could see the expression on his mother's face, that posture was still as deep and unpredictable as a plain pond.

His thoughts took a detour, and Taiping suddenly pulled back his thoughts in a trance. Just now he realized that his mother was talking to him, and he was shocked by the natural aura of his mother and gave a subconscious sting!But she was in a trance for only a moment, and she calmed down very quickly: "Mother, your heart is really so ruthless and decisive!" It was not a question, but she uttered such a sentence coldly to Empress Wu, and Danfeng's eyes seemed to be covered with ice and snow It's as cold as it is creepy!

Empress Wu's eyebrows were slightly fixed, seeing that her daughter changed many of her usual docile and submissive habits, she didn't salute to see her, and her sentences were ruthless and direct.She had a clear idea in her heart, knowing that Taiping's entry into the palace and going straight to Pixiang Palace was because of Xue Shao's affairs.

But Empress Wu didn't want to explain more to Taiping. Everything she did naturally had her own precise plan, paving the way for her own plan. Whether she understood it or not was Taiping's business, and if everything was wrong Go and explain, she really doesn't have that much time to spare!What's more, Taiping is her daughter, if Taiping can't even comprehend this kind of thoughts, and can't make such a choice, how can she be worthy of the status of the first princess and the first princess?

Empress Wu did not disturb the peace of her nature because of her daughter's strangeness. She stood still, glanced at her little daughter who was close to her, and then slightly raised her slender eyebrows and smiled slightly: "Lingyue, what do you say?" Mother can't understand what you said." The tone was not condescending, it was understated, as if nothing had happened.No, there was nothing wrong with her.

"Don't understand?" As soon as these words reached Taiping's ears, a self-deprecating sneer appeared on Dengdi's lips.Taiping slightly turned his face to the side, staggering his mother's gaze on his face, "Yes, I forgot, disguising is my mother's strong point..." At this time, she was already too confused, and she didn't care about what she said or did. Didn't even think about it, just said that.

Empress Wu smirked.

At this time, Taiping's thoughts were piled up to a peak again, she turned around abruptly, walked a few steps towards her mother, raised her hand and grabbed the fluttering cuff of her mother, her face was full of panic and confusion. Feeling chaotic, "Why, why did Xue Shao die! Why did you not consider the current situation of your daughter at all, you want to treat Xue Shao and your daughter like this!"

Taiping knew that she had gone crazy, that she had gone insane, otherwise how could she even dare to question her mother who had always respected her like a god?

But this state of mind could not control her body at all, she was trembling softly, her fingers were cold, she seemed to be sincerely looking for an answer from her mother, or she seemed to be waiting for her mother to bow herself to soothe the depression in her heart, or as if It's just a pure emotional vent because the savings are too deep and the depression is too long.

There is a moment of silence, this kind of silence is enough to calm Taiping and restrain her already chaotic heart, and let her realize that the person she is facing face to face and constantly interrogating and being unreasonable and stubborn is her mother and also the supreme leader of the Tang Dynasty. The Holy Mother of Heaven.

Suddenly, a long and slender breath slid across the calm heart. Although Empress Wu is getting older, she still maintains a beautiful face, as if there is a warm wind.She raised her hand slowly, and unexpectedly, she threw her daughter away violently.This face was not angry and majestic, and immediately staggered the eyes that fell on Taiping. Empress Wu's pair of phoenix eyes contained a cold light like a sword blade: "Don't worry about other things, you just need to remember, he deserves to die!" Without saying much, let alone comforting his daughter, Wei Mu and awe-inspiring tossed down these words, which was a natural cruelty in his bones.

Peaceful shock!

Empress Wu's thick eyelashes cast a row of sparse shadows in the backlight, and the coldness in her eyes was ready to come out.After this sentence was settled, she didn't say another word, turned around resolutely and went back to the inner Buddhist hall.

Shangguan Wan'er on one side was as indifferent as ever, she lowered her head and narrowed her eyes, then stepped up to follow closely.

In a trance, the footsteps gradually became shallow, and Taiping was the only person left in the huge outer hall of wearing incense.

Due to the strength of her mother's surprise, she fell heavily on the ground that was laid with neat blue bricks, and she was accompanied by the torn scroll of the portrait of a lady.

Everything is like waking up from a dream...

The flash of inspiration suddenly turned, all thoughts disturbed her heart, Taiping gradually became quiet, and she slowly lowered her face, because the sudden thoughts were so intense that she had no time to shed tears of sadness.

The natural emotion between mother and daughter is strong and sincere, but also subtle.Don't dare to hate... She doesn't dare to hate her mother. If her mother is so strong, she can't hate her either.

Can't, can't... She said this to herself over and over again in her heart.

But it turned out that I was never the most important thing in my mother's heart, and I was always able to make concessions!

As soon as her thoughts were heavy, she subconsciously raised her head and looked around through the wooden lattice door behind her.Even though her vision was blocked by doors, she knew that the palaces and palaces outside were beautiful and majestic, and the people inside were as insignificant as the most humble, weak, powerless and ruined ants.

Everyone in it will not hate, unless this person doesn't want to die anymore!And in the same way, it seems that everyone is madly trying their best to fight for that kind of thing. What everyone wants must be a very good thing... That thing, called "rights".

As soon as the thought fell, Taiping's thoughts suddenly fell.

The dead are dead, and the living must live on!Must, well, live well...

.

After all, Empress Wu still cared about her little daughter.

After Xue Shao's incident, in order to appease Princess Taiping, Empress Wu broke the ancestral practice of Princess Tang's food seal of no more than 350 households, and made an exception to increase the household closures enjoyed by Princess Taiping to [-] households.This multiplied to several times, is not only comforting, but also shows the depth and profoundness of Taiping's honor and favor from Empress Wu.
