Crown Prince's Counterattack

Chapter 52 Pregnant Prince Li Xian

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is coming"

"Understood, all of you back down"

The soft female voice exuded an irreversible majesty, and a crimson dress made her skin more beautiful than snow, and she was unparalleled in luxury. She was already the mother of several children, but she couldn't tell that she was old, and her gestures showed a kindness. Sima Yi just glanced at him, and then looked away. Wu Meiniang also glanced at Sima Yi, and then said lightly.

After a burst of light footsteps, the door was gently closed, and the light in the room dimmed a bit instantly. The silence of the two people also made the whole hall seem even quieter. The two seemed to be waiting for the other to speak first.

Sima Yi was a little surprised. You must know that Mrs. Wu has to handle government affairs for Li Zhi every day. It can be said that she is very busy. It was only a few days before they broke up unhappy, and Sima Yi didn't think that Wu Meiniang wanted to see him now, just because something happened to him.

Wu Meiniang frowned slightly, obviously something made her hesitate now, this is also a rare thing for her who wants to be decisive, she thought for a long time before opening her mouth, what she said surprised Sima Yi.

"I didn't expect time to pass so fast. In a blink of an eye, you all grew up, and my palace is also old."

Wu Meiniang's slender fingertips caressed her still smooth and delicate face, with a look of loneliness, youth is fleeting, youth is no longer always the most difficult thing for a woman to accept, let alone a woman who cherishes color, and even relies on color to survive in the harem woman.If it weren't for her beautiful face, she would not be able to wait for the glory of today, but no matter how beautiful a woman is, she can't match the characterization of time.

"My son will send South Sea pearls in a few days, which will surely make my mother's beauty stay forever"

"I understand your heart, but if you can't force it, you can't find it if you lose it. In the end, you still have to accept the status quo."

Wu Meiniang smiled, the loneliness faded from her eyes, after feeling sad, she was still the woman who intended to rule the world.

"Bengong entered the palace at the age of 14, hibernated for 12 years, and the path has been countless ups and downs. Those who have trampled on the palace have become the loess of yesterday. Only the palace finally stood in this high position, but among them Who would know the hardships.... Has Xian'er ever understood?"

In the 11th year of Zhenguan, Wu Zetian was 14 years old. The first emperor heard that she was beautiful, so he called her into the palace, named her a fifth-grade talent, and gave her the title "Wu Mei".She came to this heavy court with anxiety, hope and longing, but the reality gave her a heavy blow. She has never been favored by Tang Taizong. She has been a talented person for 12 years, and her status has never been high. She has been promoted, but in a place like the harem, without the favor of the emperor, even a nobleman's status can be as low as dust. In 12 years, she has gradually learned scheming from a naive girl, and all the reasons are because of helplessness.When Emperor Xian was seriously ill, he and she finally met the man who changed her life—Prince Li Zhi.

The king was born and I was not born, and I was born to be old. She met the right person at the wrong time, and the criticism of the world can't stop this fate.It's just that when she was moved by Li Zhi, she also brought her own calculations. She was just young, so she was willing to die alone in the temple, so she knew that this would be her only chance. Falling in love, just so that one day she can come back with glory.

In the 23rd year of Zhenguan, the first emperor passed away, and Wu Meiniang followed the example of the Tang harem and some concubines who had no children went to Chang'an Ganye Temple to become a nun. On the day she left Chang'an, she sat in a long-distance carriage and took a last look The majestic palace, facing the fate she will face with apprehension and fear.

The temple is quiet, but it is also a place where filth is hidden. They, the former emperor's concubines who were kicked out of the palace, also lost all their glory, and the treatment they received can be imagined. When she came over, she was not afraid of suffering, but worried that that person would forget his promise to her, then she would really feel ashamed, but fate favored her so much.

In the second year of Yonghui, Queen Wang, who fell out of favor due to childlessness, tried to beat her rival Concubine Xiao Shu with Zhaoyi's car to welcome her into the palace. She knew that her chance had come.

She gave birth to her eldest son in one fell swoop, which consolidated her position in the harem, and the harem was infinitely beautiful.She knew that everything she got was not easy, and she also cherished her life at that time. Even in the face of the unpredictable Queen and the aggressive Concubine Xiao Shu, she chose to forbear and avoid taboos, but it was a pity that her regress only made them think that she was weak Can be bullied.

Her daughter is only one month old!She didn't understand anything, but she became a victim of the harem struggle. No one knew her heartbroken at that time.She knew that Queen Wang was not the murderer who killed her daughter, but if she didn't kill Boren, Boren died because of her, so she deserved to die too.Concubine Xiao Shu is even more damnable. In order to cause disputes between her and the queen, Xiao Shi actually killed her daughter and put the blame on the queen, just to make a profit from it. It's a pity that although she won't let it go, these two women are all the same. Damn it, that's why Li Zhi endured her many actions later, just to make up for his daughter.

Since then, Wu Meiniang has really changed. She doesn't care about suffering, but no one can do anything to her child, so for her child to grow up healthy and healthy, she has become more and more ruthless, less and less like own up.In the end, no one could hurt her or her baby anymore.

For Li Zhi, she has always admired and admired him in the past. In order to make her a queen, he even suppressed the elders and ministers in the court and the opposition. He was willing to oppose the officials. Even if she did some bad things, he was willing to tolerate her.It's just that there are so many expectations, and the disappointment in the face of the setbacks in reality is so great. She is cold-hearted and even can't believe that this person who was willing to share the imperial power with her would secretly draft a call to abolish the post. If she hadn't been vigilant, she Years of hard work in business were really in vain, and her children would also be implicated because of her.At that time, she really understood that the so-called feelings are all vain, she wants power, she no longer wants to depend on others to exist, so what about the queen, once the imperial decree is issued, all her dignity will be gone, so she is already tired of this In terms of identity, only the Son of Heaven is truly superior, and she can truly control her own destiny.

"My son understands that these years have been very difficult for you. From now on, my son should honor his mother well."

After hearing Sima Yi's words, Wu Meiniang laughed lowly, her indifferent expression instantly became more tender, making people feel a little more intimate.

"You have such a heart, and the queen mother will feel comforted, but this filial piety does not have to wait until later, now the mother needs your help for something."

Wu Meiniang's eyes fell on Sima Yi with deep meaning. She said so much, but her real purpose only started from this sentence.

"Oh? The queen mother has ordered that my son and minister should go through fire and water without hesitation, but I don't know what it is?"

Sima Yi met Wu Meiniang's gaze, with a sincere expression and a look of sincerity.

"It's not a big deal, the queen mother just wants you to hand over... what you have in your hands, and it can be regarded as a repayment for the upbringing of you by the palace for many years."

"What?! The queen mother's words are serious. Whatever you want, I should give it to you. It's just that I don't understand what you want?"

Sima Yi had a puzzled expression on his face.

Wu Meiniang put away the smile on her face, but her expression still became serious.

"Are you pretending to be confused for your mother!"

"That thing is in your hands, the queen mother knows it very well"

"What did the queen mother say that I don't understand, and I don't have what you want, so I will leave first."

Sima Yi's expression also changed, as if he was about to leave immediately.

"stop!"

Wu Meiniang patted the nanmu square table and stood up, her chest was heaving and unsteady, she seemed very angry at Sima Yi.

"Is this your filial piety to your mother?"

"My son really doesn't understand what the queen mother wants?"

Sima Yi turned around, with a troubled look on his face, as if he was a little entangled in the woman's unreasonable troubles, especially this woman was still the kind who couldn't be beaten or scolded.

"It seems that you are determined to do the right thing with the queen mother, so don't blame the queen mother..."

"Does the queen mother also want to treat me like she treats her elder brother?"

Sima Yi suddenly interrupted Wu Meiniang's words impulsively, with a slightly sarcastic tone, mocking eyes, and looked deeply at Wu Meiniang.He immediately understood that it belonged to the deep-rooted resentment in this body.

"evil creature!"

After a crisp sound, both of them froze there, a little in disbelief.

Wu Meiniang put away her slightly numb hands and tried to maintain a calm look. Sima Yi touched the red and swollen face on the left side, and the anger that suddenly rose in his heart was discouraged when he saw Wu Meiniang's wet eyes. It was the first time he was beaten after he became the prince, and his heart was really complicated.

"Don't you want to disobey me like that unfilial son?"

Wu Meiniang calmed down a bit, she didn't know why she was so excited, and even touched the child, which was already disrespectful to her who always pays attention to manners, not to mention that the child is not young, even if she is sad, But she cared more about what the child thought, she was really afraid that this slap would hit Sima Yi's heart, so she quickly changed the subject.

Sima Yi seemed to hear the imperceptible grievance in Wu Meiniang's tone, he was silent for a moment.

"Is it because your elder brother disobeyed you that you are going to treat him like that?"

Sima Yi's eyes were red, and the long-standing resentment suddenly burst out at this moment. Sima Yi, who had inherited all the memories and emotions, seemed to be able to empathize with Li Xian's pain, just like he couldn't believe it when he knew the truth.

Wu Meiniang's complexion turned pale, her face turned pale, she looked at Sima Yi in shock, why her child would know the truth she tried so hard to hide, at this moment, even though she was still aloof, her heart began to panic.
