88 088: The princess is hard to marry (1)
When Li Chen entered Qingning Palace, his mother Wu Zetian was crooked on the couch, she supported her forehead with one hand, and her eyes were slightly closed.
Li Chen paused, waved his hand, and asked Shangguan Wan'er, who followed up, not to alarm Wu Zetian. She tiptoed to her mother's side, her mother is now in her fifties, and she still looks young, probably because she has always had a goal in her heart, and has always struggled for her goals.
Looking at his mother and thinking about his father again, Li Chen's heart was gloomy for a while.
In fact, my father is four years younger than my mother, but my father's body is really far worse than my mother. The genetic diseases of the Li family for generations are really enough, Li Chen thought, and he didn't know if he would get this kind of wind disease in the future.
She took two steps forward, sat down on a small low stool in front of her mother's bed, put her hands in front of the couch, rested her head on her hands, and looked at Wu Zetian, who seemed to be taking a nap, while thinking wildly.
Taiping is going to surrender, and she can't delay it for long.
Last time, she also heard her father and mother sigh and say, now that the children have all grown up, in the blink of an eye, Yongchang is about to surrender, and I am reluctant to keep her for one more year.
Although she sometimes thinks that the palace is stuffy and very boring, when she thinks of leaving the palace, she feels that her feet are hanging on the ground. What would happen to her without her father and mother?
If his father had gone one step ahead of his mother, what would have happened to her, her sister, and her brothers?
Li Chen felt tired for a while, she reached out and grabbed her mother's hand on the couch, and closed her eyes a little tiredly.
When Wu Zetian woke up from a nap, what he saw was her little daughter sitting on a small low stool in front of her couch, holding her mother's hand with one hand, her eyes closed, obviously asleep. But she was not stable in her sleep, and her brows were slightly frowned, as if she was troubled by something.
"A-Niang...... Help me......"
Wu Zetian was stunned when he heard her whispering, one of her hands was grabbed tightly by Li Chen, and she seemed to be able to feel her fear in her dream.
"A-Niang, I don't want to surrender, A-Niang ......" said and said, her voice was very sad, as if she was about to cry.
Wu Zetian originally thought that she had some nightmare, but now when she heard it, she probably heard that she was probably unwilling to surrender, and she couldn't cry or laugh. But in the past few years, this little daughter has grown up and become more and more assertive, but she is very majestic in front of the people below. The people in Daming Palace have more awe of this little princess than Princess Taiping, and Wu Zetian, as a mother, has not seen her daughter look so helpless for a long time, and she can't help but feel soft in her heart.
Her free hand reached over, stroked her hair, and called to her softly: "Yongchang, wake up, you are dreaming." ”
But Li Chen's eyebrows not only did not loosen, but tightened them tighter. She didn't fall asleep completely, but she was in a trance, and the matter of going out and landing had been pressed in her heart for a long time, but she didn't expect that when she was half asleep and half awake, she was still thinking about it. Since we've already made a start, wouldn't it be a pity not to go down?
So Li Chen, who had his eyes closed, quickly cheered Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.
Wu Zetian sighed, picked up a hairpin next to him, and stabbed Li Chen's hand slightly.
The stinging pain finally made her open her eyes, but she still didn't seem to be fully awake, and when she saw Wu Zetian, she looked very aggrieved, "A-Niang, why did you force Yongchang to surrender?" ”
Wu Zetian: "......"
Li Chen complained: "I don't like anyone, the cousins of the martial family don't like it, and the cousins of the Li family don't like it either, why do Ah Niang and my father have to surrender to Yongchang?" As she spoke, her eyes were still red, obviously because she had been fighting with her parents in a dream for a long time without winning, resulting in being immersed in the frustration and grievances in the dream after waking up.
Wu Zetian was angry and funny, reached out and pinched her tender face, "Come and say hello to your mother are still asleep?" ”
Li Chen was pinched by her mother's face, in a trance, frowning and letting go, she looked like she was simply playing tricks to the end, her head was not resting on her arm, her forehead was against the back of her mother's hand, and her voice was nasal, "When I came in, A-Niang seemed to be asleep, and I heard that you were unwell and couldn't bear to wake you up, so I stayed by the side." Who knows that he will fall asleep by himself. ”
When Wu Zetian heard this, he smiled a little dotingly.
Li Chen raised his head, the big eyes that had just woken up and were still misty looked at her, and called her out lovingly, "Ah Niang......"
Princess Yongchang is older, and her coquettish skills are also good, and today's Princess Yongchang's coquettish skills are not a little bit better, but she is about to become a sperm.
"Huh?" Wu Zetian responded to her with pity on his face.
"Does the princess have to go out? Can't I stay in the palace with you and my father forever? ”
"You are the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but you are not allowed to say stupid things." Wu Zetian smiled and brushed the slightly sweaty hair on her forehead, rubbed the skin on her face with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Your sister is for your grandmother to become a monk, so she didn't surrender until she was fifteen years old, but you are different, if you wait until your sister's age to surrender, you will attract laughter." ”
The girls of the Tang Dynasty all married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and if they didn't marry at the age of fifteen, they would be considered unmarried. Taiping had the name of a female Taoist priest before, and it was also for filial piety that he was delayed until he was fifteen years old, no matter how he said it, it would only add a good name to Taiping, but if Li Chen married at the age of fifteen, the emperor would not be anxious for the emperor, and the courtiers would be anxious for the emperor.
Li Chen's appearance was very willful: "Then I will also become a Taoist priest like Sister A, who dares to laugh at me?" ”
Wu Zetian glanced at her, "Don't mess around." ”
Li Chen pursed his lips, snorted lightly, and complained: "I already knew that A-Niang and my father thought I was too noisy in the palace, and I wished I had left the palace to set up a mansion earlier, and my father muttered a few days ago that he wanted to find a horse for me, I heard what you said, but I don't like any of those people!" ”
Wu Zetian: "...... How did you hear that? ”
Li Chen: "That day, you were telling your father in Hanliang Hall that on the day of the wedding of the third brother and my sister, how to arrange it in Chang'an City, and I was mentioned by the way, at that time I was holding a tea set outside the door, and I heard you and my father talk about me, of course I wanted to know if Yongchang was very well-behaved in the hearts of my mother and father, so I waited quietly outside the door." Accidentally, I listened to the story that A-Niang and my father were going to choose a colt for me. ”
Her Royal Highness the Queen heard this, and had a headache.
Today's emperor Li Zhi's love for the little princess of Yongchang has been like a day for ten years, only increasing, no matter when Princess Yongchang can enter and exit the palace of eternal life and the hall of Hanliang where the emperor lives at will without notification, which has caused Princess Yongchang to listen to a lot of corners.
What makes Her Royal Highness the Queen most helpless is that this little princess of Yongchang, who has heard a lot of corners, is still very aggrieved, and there is a sentence hanging from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, "Actually, I don't want to know this kind of troublesome thing that will make people have nightmares."
Wu Zetian sighed lightly, "Yongchang, ......"
Li Chen looked at his mother.
"Why don't you like the cousins of your mother's martial arts family or your father's Li family?"
There must be a reason for everything, Wu Zetian feels that this little daughter is very different from Taiping, they all say that they know lust and Mu Shaoai, Taiping's girl's thoughts and feelings are faintly noticed when she is twelve or thirteen years old. Wu Zetian was also young, she entered the palace at the age of fourteen and became a talented person of Taizong, and when she didn't get the news of entering the palace, she would also look at what kind of Langjun she would marry in the future? Even after entering the palace, my heart had a little longing.
But Li Chen in front of him has grown up since he was a child, as if he doesn't have any girlish feelings.
The books she likes to read are not as windy and snowy, and Shangguan Wan'er, who is full of poetry and books, has served by her side for so long, but Li Chen is stunned that she has not touched Shangguan Wan'er's literary romance.
I like to play the piano, but I don't know what kind of music I don't know if I'm ambushed on all sides, but I don't know what kind of music I play, so I come to a tender and silent song, and I practice it to please her father or accompany the Taiping.
likes to dance, and people who have seen Princess Yongchang's dancing say that Princess Yongchang is heroic and handsome, because her favorite is sword dance.
In addition to playing the piano and occasionally practicing dance, what she most often does is make tea, and Princess Yongchang's kung fu in making tea is nothing to say.
But Her Royal Highness always felt that this daughter was neither like her father nor her mother, and she didn't know who she looked like.
Li Zhi is a very literary and artistic emperor, whether it is literature or music and rhythm all aspects of outstanding attainments, Wu Zetian can accompany the monarch for a long time, and is also an all-round talent who can sing and dance.
In Wu Zetian's opinion, Li Chen is not bad, but sometimes he really can't figure out the mind of this little daughter, because sometimes it is really more out-of-the-box.
Li Chen listened to his mother's question, pursed his lips, and then replied in a sullen voice: "Because they are not good enough, and Sister Ah has not yet surrendered, are Ah Niang and his father in a hurry to send Yongchang outside the palace?" ”
Wu Zetian was stunned, ignored the second half of Li Chen's sentence, and grabbed her first half of the sentence and asked, "Where are they not good enough?" ”
Li Chen has always disliked people from the martial arts family, Wu Zetian knows about it, and this little daughter has been taught repeatedly, if she doesn't like it, she doesn't like it, and she doesn't hide it at all. Wu Zetian couldn't do anything about her, so he went with her. But what about the cousins of the Li family who are not good enough? All those who Li Zhi can look at are the best among the sons and daughters of today's nobles, either from a big family, or from a royal family, with a big family and a big business, and another talent. Waiting for the candidate to come down, Li Zhi, who is unwilling to wronged his daughter, must be thinking of a way to add an official to his daughter's husband to the knighthood to ensure his success, how can it be bad?
Li Chen raised his head and said very confidently: "They are not as good as my father in any place, and they are not good enough!" ”
Wu Zetian: "......"
