Li Chen really wanted to help in Taiping's future marriage, but she found that she had nowhere to focus.

Taiping and Xue Shao obviously have affection for each other, if she secretly makes their affairs yellow, Taiping may not be happy, it can be regarded as a stick beating mandarin ducks.

Li Chen is blessed, her parents loved her very much in the past, and later came to this world, let alone become a princess, it is not too much to say that she was held by Li Zhi and Wu Zetian and even the whole country. She doesn't know much about people, but she's not stupid.

After many years by her parents' side, she has understood too well that as a politician, the first consideration is always the overall situation rather than feelings. If her arrival did not change her mother's future of becoming emperor, Xue Shao's future would have been doomed.

He was not destined to die a good death.

At that time, what will happen to Taiping?

If Taiping didn't treat Li Chen well since he was a child, and he didn't care for the relationship between the two and didn't get along, Li Chen didn't want to worry about this kind of thing. But Sister Taiping has loved her very much since she was a child, and she thinks about her in everything and follows her.

Obviously, she wants to worry about this kind of thing, and it is not something that she can solve if she wants to be troubled.

Annoying, thinking about it, but there is no reason to come.

Li Chen collapsed on the couch with self-abandonment, thinking that he was annoyed to death.

However, she was not annoyed to death, because Taiping, who had annoyed and entangled her, came in with Si Qi and pulled her up, "Sister, let's go, let's go horsebacking." ”

Li Chen was a little wilted, "Riding a horse again?" It's better to go to the East Palace to find your sister-in-law to see the flowers and plants she planted. "The year before last or last year, Li Chen remembered that Pei gave his mother a three-color peony, and at that time, his mother had to prune the peony baby herself.

Taiping was very easy-going, "It's okay, let's go." ”

But Li Chen reversed himself, turned over on the couch, and hugged a big pillow, "But I don't want to move." ”

Taiping: "......"

had no choice, so I had to take off my shoes and go to bed, and those good-looking eyes looked at Li Chen, "Sister, is there something unhappy?" ”

Li Chen looked at Sister Taiping, who was unhappy with her, and shook her head, "No." ”

Tianping pouted, reached out and nodded her forehead, "It's clear that there is!" ”

Li Chen casually said nonsense: "I think of going to my mother next month and kissing silkworms, and I feel tired for her." ”

When Taiping heard this, he laughed, "Silkworm kissing is harder, but Ah Niang is not afraid, every time the silkworm is celebrated, I feel that Ah Niang is even happier than usual." ”

Wu Zetian wants to kiss silkworms again, and she has held a silkworm ceremony for three consecutive years.

In history, there is a queen to bow down to the silkworm ceremony such a sacrifice, but the queen in the past is rarely held, because the silkworm ceremony is very tiring, three days in advance of fasting and bathing, the silkworm almost can not sleep the day before, all kinds of cumbersome things during the ceremony, all kinds of exquisite, after the banquet inside and outside the women...... In short, it's a kind of tossing and tearing, which is tiring.

Li Chen, as a person who didn't need to worry about anything and only needed to be manipulated by others, told her where to stand and what to do, she felt exhausted, and she really couldn't understand how her mother, who was now over fifty years old, could be so energetic.

Li Chen didn't say anything, because she didn't know what to say.

She looked at Taiping, thinking that if she didn't know anything, then she didn't need to be so entangled like now.

Taiping didn't know what Li Chen was thinking, so he leaned side by side on the couch with her, and then raised his hand to Li Chen's eyes, "Is it good-looking?" ”

Li Chen's eyes fell on the agate chain on Taiping's hand, the natural red agate was very good-looking, and she didn't have to think about it to know who sent it, otherwise Taiping wouldn't show it to her like this.

"Beautiful." Li Chen said.

Taiping smiled and withdrew his hand, and his tone was sweet, "I also think it looks good." ”

When Li Chen heard Taiping's words, his heart, which had been entangled, suddenly stopped being entangled.

What is she struggling with?

One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer.

Now that Taiping and Xue Shao continue to develop like this, there is no room for a third person to intervene. And her mother also turned a blind eye, which shows that this matter is not something she can manage if she wants to.

Li Chen thought about it, if her mother really wanted to kill Xue Shao in the future, it would be a big deal for her to go out and be on the same front as Sister Taiping, and if she could run to save her, she would naturally run to save her, if not, she would ...... Then you can only accept your fate.

Otherwise, what else can be done?

It is not a good idea to rashly list Li Jingye as one of Taiping's horse options. If the mother wants her daughter to marry the Wu family no matter what, no matter who the concubine is, she will inevitably die like this.

Since Xue Shao is the son of Aunt Chengyang, if his mother □□, he will inevitably wipe out the forces of the Li Tang royal family, whether Xue Shao is a concubine or not, he will inevitably die.

Since it's a dead end no matter what, it's better to let him and Taiping have a happy love.

Thinking like this, Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then spit on his cold-bloodedness very much.

But she can't help it, maybe in the end, she can't protect herself.

Li Chen thought that she had to mumble more about the Wu family's badness in front of her father, and she also had to spare no effort to reveal her hatred for the Wu family in front of her mother. In short, he can't let his life's major events have any possibility of being related to the Wu family.

The queen kissed silkworms in March, but half a month before the silkworm ceremony, Li Chen didn't know what was going on, and suddenly had a high fever at night.

The female officials of Fengyang Pavilion invited the imperial doctor overnight, and the imperial doctor said that the princess may have a cold, so she should take medicine first. But on the second day, Li Chen's fever still didn't go away, and he still couldn't wake up.

Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were shocked.

Li Zhi immediately called the imperial doctor to ask about Li Chen's condition, and the imperial doctor said that now that the winter and spring are social, the princess is probably careless and contracted the wind cold.

However, when Li Zhi asked why Li Chen hadn't woken up yet, the imperial doctor didn't know how to answer, and knelt down in front of the emperor and trembled in his heart.

Wu Zetian saw that Li Zhi's whole person was very anxious, and comforted him softly: "Lord take care of your body, if Yongchang is sick and you fall ill again, how about letting the concubine be good?" ”

Hearing this, Li Zhi closed his eyes slightly, and then turned his head to look at Li Chen, who was lying on the couch and his face was red.

Wu Zetian's fierce gaze fell on a group of palace maids who were serving Li Chen in Fengyang Pavilion, "Good and dignified, how could the princess have a fever?" ”

Yang Zhitou didn't dare to raise his head, he only felt cold all over his body, and his voice trembled, "The princess didn't have anything abnormal the day before yesterday, but she went to the East Palace with Princess Taiping to see the peony raised by the princess and came back." In the evening, after dinner, he said that he was a little tired and wanted to rest, and in the second half of the night, the maid heard a strange noise in the princess's room, and when she came in, she found that the princess was babbling and was already having a fever. ”

Half a month later, it was the silkworm ceremony, but at this time, Li Chen was inexplicably sick, and Li Zhi had always attached great importance to his little daughter. The silkworm ceremony is very important, and Li Chen is also very important. In Li Zhi's heart, Wu Zetian was first a good wife and mother, and then his right-hand man.

Wu Zetian, who was well versed in the emperor's thoughts, stayed in Fengyang Pavilion to accompany Li Chen.

In addition to the matter of the silkworm ceremony, all the trivial matters of the harem were left to Shangguan Wan'er to deal with, and when something important happened, Shangguan Wan'er came to report to her to get ideas.

During this period, Li Chen was groggy, calling his father for a while, and his mother for a while, but he was not awake.

Li Zhi remembered the early death of Princess Changle back then, and remembered that Princess Jinyang died at a young age. The princesses of the Li family don't know what's going on, they are always ill-fated, Li Zhi inevitably thinks of himself and Wu Zetian's first daughter, the more he thinks about it, the more frightened he becomes, he flicks his sleeves and angrily reprimands the imperial doctor: "After so many days of medication, why hasn't the princess's illness improved at all, don't hurry up and use the medicine again!" ”

The head on the head of the imperial doctor was shaky, and his heart was bitter.

They didn't know what kind of illness Princess Yongchang had, why did she suddenly have a fever and become delirious?

After tossing like this for several days, five days before the silkworm ceremony, Li Chen finally came to his senses.

Wu Zetian was not at ease, and continued to accompany Li Chen.

Li Chen couldn't fall asleep on the couch, blinking his eyes at his mother.

Wu Zetian looked at Li Chen, remembering that since she went to Luoyang, the eastern capital, she had too many things to worry about, and she neglected her daughter's daily life and diet, and she felt guilty in her heart. She reached out and touched Li Chen's forehead, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Chen raised his hand and grabbed his mother's hand.

Mother's hands are warm and soft...... In the past few years, the power in her mother's heart has become stronger and stronger, and she has not enjoyed such unconditional warmth and pampering from her mother for a long time, and she almost wants to cry.

Li Chen's condition improved, and Wu Zetian could finally hold a silkworm ceremony with confidence. Due to Li Chen's illness and recuperation in Fengyang Pavilion, Wu Zetian put aside many things for Li Chen, and now he is so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, but he didn't forget to invite Li Yanxi, the little noblegirl who played well with Li Chen, to play in Fengyang Pavilion. Li Chen suspected that there were too many people and would be noisy, so only one Li Yanxi was left.

Li Chen did not attend the silkworm ceremony and the palace banquet, and heard that the British princess Zhao was disrespectful to Her Royal Highness the queen at the palace banquet, and within two days of turning back, Wu Zetian imprisoned the Zhao family in the women's prison of the Inner Servant Province on the grounds that the British princess Zhao had no respect for the elders and no concubine Kunde.

When Li Chen, who was in Fengyang Pavilion, learned about this, he teased the gray parrot on the shelf with an expressionless face.

The gray parrot pulled his voice, "Unlucky! ”

Half a month later, Zhao was starved to death in the women's prison of the Inner Servant Province, and when the guards found her dead, her body had already begun to stink. Li Chen thought that the matter of Zhao starving to death would be over, but it was not over.

Zhao's father, Zhao Gui, was demoted to a place, and Wu Zetian specially ordered Princess Changle to follow the concubine Zhao Gui to the place.

Mother will not dispose of Zhao and Princess Changle for no reason, especially since Princess Changle is also her father's aunt. Li Chen thought about it, and felt that this matter should be a big move by his father, if he didn't acquiesce, his mother would not be satisfied with Princess Changle and the Zhao family, and she wouldn't dare to do this.

Since it was his father's acquiescence, Li Chen didn't want to delve into what role his mother played in it.

As long as the father is there, it is impossible for the mother to monopolize the power, and it is impossible to directly dispose of the father's relatives without the father's consent.
