Chapter 271: Don't Let Her Know
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and it seemed that it was about to be the day of the road, on the day of departure, Mrs. Zheng got up early, sat by the mirror and dressed up carefully, and then hurriedly left the house under a series of urging from Wan'er.

"Hee-hee, mother, are you really going to be a bride? is so charming, in the past ten years, Wan'er has seen you dressed up so carefully. Could it be that this time is really going to be a lover? After getting into the car, Shangguan Wan'er teased her mother, who had been carefully dressed.
"You girl, clean and poor", Mrs. Zheng smiled shyly, poked Wan'er's little head with her fingers, and then said quietly: "You little girl, you don't know what your mother thinks at all, for your mother in this life, how can there be other men besides your father?" The reason why my mother went to the Wa Kingdom this time, the reason why I dressed up carefully is because my Datang is prosperous and rich, and my style is far superior to other countries. ”
"Cut, who believes this?" Shangguan Wan'er pursed her lips, she didn't believe what her mother said at all, but she couldn't say anything more, so she had to get out of the car, get on the horse, and come to the agreed Chang'an East City Gate to meet Li Xian.
However, it was said that after Li Xian dispersed the dynasty that day, he also returned to the East Palace in a hurry, first explaining some things after his departure, especially letting Dou Xiantong and Wei Tuan'er, a pair of sisters, strengthen the tie, so as not to do anything unfavorable to him during this period, but his own side was not prepared.
In addition, he also explained to the Tang Sect Yintang's advocate Wuchen and Mingtang's new hall master, Wang Bo's younger brother Wang Zhu, so that all the personnel of these two halls were temporarily dormant during his absence from the capital, and they should not easily provoke the martial queen.
After that, he accompanied his crown princess Zhao Yinyue for two days of sweet days, at this time Zhao Yinyue was already pregnant, and naturally he was more cared for as a treasure, but he still had to go, so on the day of departure, he hugged his wife for a long time, asked her to take good care of her body, and sent a killer of the snake spirit organization to pretend to be a maid to secretly protect her, so she resolutely embarked on the trip in her reluctant gaze.
Because he first took the land route, and Shangguan Wan'er's team only had a car, Li Xian thought that it was Wan'er's special, so although Wan'er often did not stay inside, but accompanied him on horseback, he did not have any suspicions, until later when he got on the boat, he found that there was suddenly a middle-aged woman on the boat, although the woman was forty years old, but she was radiant, the charm still exists, and she also has a faint bookish atmosphere, which makes people respect.
Of course, Li Xian knew that this woman was Shangguan Wan'er's mother, and even Li Yiyan, another deputy envoy who accompanied him, also knew the identity of the other party, but they all tacitly did not mention the matter.
Li Yiyan was still a member of the Hou Party at the beginning, although his promotion was mainly due to the promotion of the Empress Wu, but as he found that the ambition of the Empress Wu was getting bigger and bigger, he gradually expressed dissatisfaction with the arbitrary and arrogant practices of the Empress Wu, and once opposed Gaozong to give power to the Empress Wu together with Hao Chujun, and later switched to Li Xian after Hao Chujun's death, but Li Xian believes that with his identity, temporarily maintaining the face of the Hou Party member is relatively more beneficial to the overall situation, so today's Li Yiyan is still branded with the Hou Party, And everyone knows that Shangguan Wan'er is an important member of the Hou Party and the right-hand man of the Empress Wu, so she naturally won't tell Empress Wu about Shangguan Wan'er secretly taking her mother to envoy to the Wa Kingdom afterwards.
In fact, for such a trivial matter, even if the Empress Wu knew about it, she would not say anything, after all, Shangguan Wan'er, as a close confidant of the Empress Wu, pretended to be a public servant and took her mother to the Wa Kingdom for a free trip, which is indeed not a big deal.
However, Li Xian simply pretended that he had not seen Mrs. Zheng before, and was "convinced" of Shangguan Wan'er's excuse of "taking her mother to take care of herself", but in his heart he had already set off a monstrous wave, because he naturally knew what Mrs. Zheng went to the Wa Kingdom for.
"Although you miss your husband, now take this rare opportunity to see him, such a mood is understandable, but this is really too risky, especially Wan'er, this girl, she is very smart, in case her father's death is exposed, this is not a good thing for her father or her, the only thing I am worried about now is whether Wan'er's girl knows the news now, if it is true, then it will be troublesome, Wan'er is still young after all, In case of this exposure of hatred, with my mother's ruthless nature, it will bring her death. ”
Li Xian's heart was very worried, so he looked for an opportunity to secretly meet with Mrs. Zheng, although this opportunity is very difficult to find, but it is not without a chance, and finally one day, Li Xian took Wan'er to the deck to breathe, secretly slipped into Mrs. Zheng's cabin, and drove Mrs. Zheng's entourage away, which raised the worry in his heart.
"Wan'er doesn't know about this, you can rest assured, whether it's for her father or for her, I won't tell this matter so early." Mrs. Zheng immediately explained after Li Xian expressed her worries: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please forgive the concubine for being presumptuous, in fact, the concubine also knows that she should not risk going to the Wa Kingdom, but the concubine has been guarding for more than ten years, and she really wants to see her husband, and now that she finally has such an opportunity, it is really difficult to ...... in her heart."
"Madame doesn't have to feel guilty, this palace can really understand this matter, and this palace really won't blame you, after all, the husband and wife have been separated for more than ten years, such suffering is really sympathetic, there is only one thing that the palace is worried about, that is, Wan'er will know about it, so, this time I went to the Wa Kingdom, and asked Mrs. to be cautious, and never let Wan'er know the news that his father is still alive, otherwise, once I have a grudge against my mother, sooner or later there will be a day of leakage, and at that time, my mother will be able to touch the melon, I am afraid that it will cause unimaginable catastrophe. Li Xian glanced at Mrs. Zheng and said solemnly.
"Please rest assured that the prince will be careful."
"That being the case, I am relieved and take my leave."
Li Xian listened attentively and found that Wan'er was coming, so he immediately resigned and rushed out of the cabin. At this time, Shangguan Wan'er happened to see someone rushing out of her mother's cabin, although she didn't see the person's face clearly, but the back made her feel very familiar, and she couldn't help but think in surprise: "Who is this person?" Why do you secretly meet your mother in my absence? Could it be that there is something hidden in the middle? (To be continued.) )
