Li Chen sat on the kang of Qingning Palace, playing with a crystal bead flower in his hand, and looked at the palace maids who were walking around and very busy with watery eyes, looking a little curious.

It's October now, and both the harem and the court are so busy that people are turning their backs up, why? Because in the first month, her father was going to enshrine Zen in Mount Tai.

Li Chen, who was sealed by Mount Tai, had also heard of it before, so he also went to climb Mount Tai and climbed Mount Tai along the path of the emperors of the past dynasties, wanting to be literary and artistic. It's a pity that there are no conditions for wanting literature and art, because everyone is everywhere!

Li Zhi wanted to go to Mount Tai to seal Zen, and the civil and military officials wanted to follow, and the harem concubines and princesses naturally went together.

Li Chen had only heard of Feng Chan, but he had never seen Feng Chan, so he was very curious, so he asked his mother Wu Zetian to tell her about Feng Chan.

Wu Zetian was a little surprised.

Li Chen asked: "I heard that Ah Weng was at that time, and the ministers also asked him to seal Zen, and the second brother told me that even the altar was finished at that time, why didn't he go later?" ”

Wu Zetian smiled and took the crystal bead flower in her hand and inserted it in her bun, "Your Ah Weng was originally going to Feng Zen, and the itinerary was set, but when he was about to go east, a comet appeared in the Luoyang sky, so Taishan's trip to Feng Zen was canceled." ”

The ancients believed in celestial phenomena, especially the emperor's monarchical power, and paid more attention to the induction of heaven and man, and there was a vision in the sky, that is, there may be a problem with the emperor's personal morality, and it is necessary to cultivate virtue.

The appearance of a comet is an ominous omen, and the prime minister at that time, Wei Zheng, thought that although the treasury was full, the people had only recuperated for a short time, and it was not suitable to work the people and lose money, so Tang Taizong canceled the trip to Mount Tai to seal the Zen.

Li Chen seems to understand whether he understands or not.

Wu Zetian stretched out his hand and tapped the tip of her nose, and said with a smile: "Yongchang, mother is presiding over the sub-sacrifice of the emperor in the Feng Zen, are you happy?" ”

Li Chen nodded vigorously, "Happy!" ”

Wu Zetian was in a very happy mood and hugged her, "Let's go find your sister, and then go to see your brothers together, we haven't seen them for a few days." ”

At this time, it is not surprising that Wu Zetian was in a good mood, and it was a national ceremony in ancient times, but there was never a precedent for the queen to participate. Now that she has got an opportunity from Li Zhi to preside over the sub-sacrifice of the emperor, she can expand her influence while being in the limelight, and she is in a very good mood.

The mother and daughter went to look for Taiping, but they didn't find it, and the palace maid said that Taiping went to play with Mrs. Wei.

Wu Zetian handed Li Chen in his arms to Liu Xin, the nurse beside him, flicked the skirt on his body with ten fingers, and the expression on his face was light, "Since you are the princess's personal female officer, the princess travels, why didn't you accompany you?" ”

When the female official heard this, her legs were weak, and she knelt down with a "poof", "Mrs. Wei sent someone to pick up the princess, and the maid thought-"

Wu Zetian glanced at the female official, turned around, and said to Liu Chun beside him in a low voice: "Liu Chun, the female official in the princess's courtyard, it's time to change it." ”

And the female officer, who fell to her knees, trembled.

Li Chen lay in Liu Xin's arms and watched this qiē quietly.

Wu Zetian did not take Li Chen to see her brothers, but came to the Lanting Courtyard where Mrs. Wei lived, and before she could go in, there were already bursts of laughter.

When the palace maid saw Wu Zetian, she was about to report, but Wu Zetian raised her hand to stop her.

"Sister Helan, this windmill is so fun." Taiping's excited voice came.

Mrs. Wei Guo sat next to her and looked at Taiping with a smile on her face, "If you like it, my brother will come in again, and you will come to play with me again." ”

When Taiping heard this, he smiled, "Sister Helan is so good!" ”

Mrs. Wei Guo tilted her head and put one hand against her forehead, "Then do you like to play with me, or do you like to go to Qingning Palace?" ”

Taiping blew the windmill in his hand and smiled happily, "Sister Helan is fun here, but my mother is in Qingning Palace, I will miss my mother." ”

"Taiping misses Her Royal Highness the Queen, but she prefers to play in my Lanting Courtyard, right?"

Taiping was stunned and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Wu Zetian standing around the corner, and ran over with cheers, "Mother! ”

Wu Zetian squatted down with a smile, opened his arms and hugged Taiping who rushed over.

When Mrs. Wei saw Wu Zetian, she walked over slowly and greeted Wu Zetian, "The concubine has seen Her Royal Highness the Empress." ”

Wu Zetian smiled slightly, raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from Taiping's forehead, and didn't look at Mrs. Wei Guo, "Get up." ”

Taiping put the windmill in his hand in front of Wu Zetian, "Mother, is this windmill beautiful?" ”

Wu Zetian smiled: "Beautiful." ”

"Sister Helan gave it to me!" Taiping said.

Wu Zetian stood up and looked at Mrs. Wei Guo, "You are not in good health for a while, and the imperial doctor said that you should recuperate." ”

Mrs. Wei Guo's smile was like a flower, "With more aunt care, Helan is much better now." Besides, except for the saints who came to this Lanting Courtyard on weekdays, I was the only one who was very lonely. Taiping is lively and lovely, and can often come to Lanting Courtyard to accompany Helan, Helan is happy in her heart, and her illness will naturally be cured. ”

As she spoke, she seemed to remember something, and said to Wu Zetian with an apologetic face: "These days, my aunt is sympathetic to Helan, and I don't need Helan to go to ask for peace, Helan has thanked her aunt for her grace." ”

An aunt on the left and an aunt on the right, for fear that Wu Zetian would not remember that she was a whole generation older.

Wu Zetian glanced at her and asked lightly, "Are you feeling better now?" ”

Mrs. Wei Guo: "Thank you aunt for your care, the imperial doctor said that as long as you don't see the wind these days, it will be fine soon." ”

Wu Zetian nodded, "In this case, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and you don't have to go to Qingning Palace to ask for peace in the next few days." Well, three days later, the saint will lead the civil and military officials and the harem to Mount Tai to seal the Zen, the road is far away and tired, and the food and lodging on the way are not as good as in the palace, you don't have to accompany the holy car to Mount Tai, stay in the palace to live and recuperate. ”

The smile on Mrs. Wei's face froze and looked at Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian didn't look at her, only held Taiping's hand, "Taiping, go back with your mother." ”

Taiping looked back at Mrs. Wei Guo, who was stunned, and waved her hand very happily, "Sister Helan, I'm going with my mother." ”

Li Chen looked at the lady of Wei who was so stunned that she had forgotten the etiquette of sending off the queen, and wanted to feel compassion, but probably because she didn't like this person in the first place, she couldn't even squeeze out a little sympathy.

Being young and beautiful, able to sing and dance is Mrs. Wei's greatest capital, but young and beautiful girls are always inevitably arrogant, and sometimes they inevitably think that they can replace others lightly.

Mrs. Wei was ambitious.

She wanted Wu Zetian's position.

It's a pity that the means are not worthy of ambition, and it is destined not to end well.

In the evening, Li Zhi suddenly went to Qingning Palace, ignoring the palace maids who served beside him, and took out a jade safety buckle from his arms and gave it to Wu Zetian as if offering a treasure.

"Mei Niang, do you like it?"

The Ping An buckle is sleek and warm, and the green jade makes the Ping An buckle a bit mysterious.

"I like it!" Wu Zetian smiled and fiddled for a long time, and told Liu Chun to put it away, "When Mount Tai seals the Zen, I will take this peace buckle with me." ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he sat down beside her with satisfaction, "Mei Niang......"

Wu Zetian said with a smile: "Lord, you are here to ask Helan about not being able to accompany the holy car to Mount Tai, right?" Helan is empathetic, and with her accompanying the lord, the concubine is also a lot more relieved. Today, the concubine went to Lanting Courtyard and saw that she was not fully well...... "Then Wu Zetian repeated the high-sounding reason with Mrs. Wei Guo in Lanting Courtyard.

Wu Zetian looked at Li Zhi with a smile, his white hand resting on the back of his hand, "Helan has been quite good since she was a child, but in the past two years, she has somehow been sick at every turn. The concubine knows that the lord has a good eye for Helan, but the trip to Mount Tai is for the current Tang Dynasty and the people, and the second is to inherit the last wish of the emperor. It's a big matter, if it's Helan

Mrs. Wei Guo was clever but was mistaken by cleverness, and seeing that she couldn't accompany Taishan Fengzen, she immediately went to Li Zhi to cry.

Li Zhi did come to Wu Zetian for the matter of Mrs. Wei Guo, but when he heard Wu Zetian say this, he felt that it was the same reason, and it would be meaningless to talk about it.

"The entourage of the harem is all arranged by Mei Niang, how could I come here for the affairs of Mrs. Wei Guo." As he spoke, he stood up and hugged Li Chen off the kang and took her little hand, "Mei Niang, let's go, let's take Yongchang to enjoy the flowers." ”

Wu Zetian pointed to the booklet on the table: "But the concubine still has so many things to deal with?" ”

Li Chen took his father's hand and looked at Wu Zetian with a smile, "Auntie." ”

Wu Zetian was looked at by this big one, and he had no choice but to lose the book with a smile.

Li Chen grinned and held the hands of the two adults, bouncing and jumping, very energetic.

Let's go to enjoy the flowers.
