Hearing the Empress Dowager's words, Princess Taiping cried suddenly, but she still looked extremely sad and resentful. She looked up at her mother and said angrily: "I am my mother's flesh and blood, but since I have become a self-reliant, my heart will be different! If my mother's evil feelings are spread, what kind of face will I have to live in the world! What kind of disgusting things are I? My mother still wants to persecute me!"

Wu Zetian smiled after hearing this, but she felt a little regretful in her tone: "After all, in the past years, I gave you too much indulgence and spoiling, which still makes you feel that you can be exempted from punishment by cunning. But now, even if your mother is heartless, she is powerless. When will you understand that after you take off this embrace, there is no longer any affection in the world that can indulge your nonsense!"

"My mother thought I was a fool? You grew up in this deep palace. Do you know how anxious the four walls you see? The fourth brother was impatient and anxious. If it weren't for my remarks, he wouldn't know how to deal with the chaos. I did this for..."

Princess Taiping still insisted on defending herself, but Wu Zetian slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Stop it! Do you really think your mother is old and stupid and can deceive you! How much risk do I take when I see you now? If you don't tear it out from your own flesh and blood, I'm tired of my long life and come out to see you? You have to conceal your life and squander a little vitality!"

"Things may be messy, but it will not happen, not... Mother, you are willing to speak out, be careful not to disobey, as long as he can restrain himself..."

Princess Taiping was timid when she saw her mother's liver fire, and her tone was weakened. "It's not that my mother has no responsibility for the tear of the world so far. The third brother has been wandering away for many years, and it is a big problem. I can't bear to see the Zong family bleed again. I rely on the fourth brother himself, and there is no abilities to accommodate. If someone robs the third brother into Chang'an, the battle for the wall is close to you..."

Wu Zetian closed his eyes and shook his hands, looking impatient, and did not want to listen to Princess Taiping's speech again: "Your mother does have acts contrary to the Tao, but you are not the kind-hearted people who can be looked down upon! How deep are you going to experience in the dangers in human hearts? Your brother and sister rely on ignorance, clumsy and big plans, and explain a few things, and do it seriously."

"My mother, please tell me!"

Princess Taiping didn't dare to mess around again after hearing this? She quickly corrected her posture and said solemnly.

"Princess Yong gave the gift of the third-rank official to Xijing. The old minister Pei Judao was given the order to Sheng Zhui, and Ai Rong was the same as Liu Yanjing. Pei Yan was awarded the title of posthumous title? It must not be too beautiful and left a glimmer of life for your fourth brother. King Lu was awarded the title of the governor of Shanzhou. Do several things? The soldiers of Xijing's armor can be out of Tongguan, so you can make trouble."

When Princess Taiping heard this order, a hint of self-deprecating appeared on the corner of her mouth: "So my brother and I are such a humble choice in the eyes of my mother. I am sure we can't accomplish anything. Is it the only one who is your grandson in the world? Is it natural that you can ask for big things?"

"What's there to be like to be beautiful? Being cautious is indeed stronger than you? Otherwise, why would your mother fall into this state? What you think is in my arms? I hope to be surprised, but unfortunately it is just a pity. I can't look forward to it for a long time in the world. I hope to be able to get what I have entrusted before leaving, and I can avoid being ashamed when I see my husband. He entrusted my karma to me. Although he experienced twists and turns, I finally wanted to praise him and live up to what I have entrusted."

When Wu Zetian spoke this, he sighed sadly, lowered his eyes and looked at Princess Taiping again, his mood was still complicated, and continued: "Don't be too focused on your work inward. If you have a confidant choice, you can send Bingzhou to a critical opportunity to save your life."

Princess Taiping was silent after hearing this. After a while, she said, "I can do my best to make things happen to you. But King Lu's assassination of Shanzhou is really a dilemma. The fourth brother is determined not to allow it, and the courtiers will not agree."

"You can't do such a small thing. How can you brothers and sisters have the courage to make big plans? Before you start a matter, you must first think about defeat. Do you really have to force yourself to the point of desperation and have no way to retreat?"

When Wu Zetian heard this, she sneered.

Princess Taiping looked resentful and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Don't my mother think that your grandson is a big deal? Why should I pave the way to go east for him so brightly? Am I still worried that his way back will be blocked and it will be difficult for me to enter the capital?"

"What I am worried about is not Shenzhi, it is you! I am worried that you will not end the situation. The people of Xijingjia are not enough to save each other!"

Wu Zetian sighed and said helplessly: "Shen the way back is clear, the situation of the court is also a shock. King Lu is the governor of Shanzhou, and he also sets a warning for you. Once the court is so upset that he will take his post. No matter what the situation is at that time, stop immediately and leave the capital. If you force yourself to stay, you will be in trouble!"

"My mother always talks about disaster, but I can't see what the disaster is! The internal and external ministers, the old dynasty has been tamed for a long time, and the soldiers of the north and south are under control. Even if the court is in chaos for a while, they will not immediately use swords and weapons. But if there is no ban on entering and leaving, this is the real danger that makes people restless and eager to solve. Such an arrangement will only make the court more nervous and not conducive to the balance between internal and external!"

Although Princess Taiping values ​​her mother’s advice, she does not just obey her own opinions and opinions.

In her opinion, sending the family of Yong Wang to Xijing was indeed a pacification plan. Elevating the father-in-law Pei Judao Airong, who was filial to the emperor, to the same as the father-in-law Liu Yanjing, could also allow Xingtai to speak out less in the next operations of the court. Pei Yan's deeds were revealed in the decree, and without adding honors, Shi Liu could be calm and not focus on dangerous plans.

But if the gods all go west and the roads are all within the control of Xingtai, the imperial gate will be wide open, which will only intensify the confrontation atmosphere with Xingtai, and will not be conducive to the balanced situation she envisioned.

After all, her mother gave such instructions only to her extreme despise her and devoted herself to her grandson she valued, which naturally made Princess Taiping a little angry.

"The emperor will agree. You don't even have the understanding of what your brother thinks and wants. It's rare that you have the courage to make people feel like you."

Seeing that Princess Taiping was still rumoring, Wu Zetian sighed again.

Princess Taiping didn't believe it after hearing this, but after thinking for a while, her face changed and she spoke in a trembling voice: "My mother wants to relieve herself of the Zuo Yulin Guard Shangyang Palace?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "Your brother fears me like a tiger. If he can fully grasp my safety, life and death, he will never refuse."

When Princess Taiping heard her mother's words, tears suddenly emerged from her eyes. This time she showed true feelings rather than acting. She wiped the tears in the corners of her eyes and said angrily: "Brother agrees, I don't agree! My mother is not a bargaining bet on anyone! Is he worthy of being cautious? Mother, you have been smart all your life. Can't you see that the boy still blames you for pursuing your second brother? He is not worth it! He is really talented, so he killed all the people in the Zong family, but don't even want to knock on the door for him with my mother's life!"

Seeing Princess Taiping reacting so excitedly, Wu Zetian's mouth trembled, lowered his head and rubbed the sour corners of his eyes and took a deep breath: "Your mother's orders to promise the country, it's a bad life, and is not a nameless guest in the world. This is my blessing, and I should also receive a reward. Is it worth it? Let's discuss it again next year, but now, it is my own willingness and I will not do anything to you."

When Princess Taiping heard this, her pretty face was still as frost as she wiped away the tears from her face, and she was still stubborn: "The King of Lu can come out of the Shanzhou, but I will be guarding Shangyang Palace! The fourth brother has a brief plan and is sleepy when he is a little complicated. He cannot take care of his mother in good condition! I will move into Shangyang Palace tomorrow. Since you are invincible, you can't just make a living for me!"

"The whole court is about to settle your mother. I'm afraid it's against your will, right?"

After hearing this, Wu Zetian smiled.

"I live with my mother, who can blame me? It's just a little bit of verbal dispute. Since I'm in the world and dancing, I'm sure I won't be relaxed. Resenting my mother is a matter, but I can't bear it when I see her in person! My mother protects me for the first half of her life, but she will depend on me for many years. My mother will never live in silence!"

Princess Taiping said this, stood up from the ground, looked at her mother and said, "My mother is resting in the palace. I will go to the palace to explain this matter to my fourth brother. If he insists on not allowing it, then he will no longer be my brother! My mother is frustrated, and I will repay him a thousand times!"

Looking at Princess Taiping walking out of the hall quickly, Wu Zetian sighed: "In the past, I never thought that she would be like a folk woman, who was too old to control her children, and she could not help herself."

After feeling a little emotion, she said to Shangguan Wan'er, who was standing on the side, "Go and invite Princess Yong to come over. The couple has been separated for a long time and will have a good time. But after this trip, I don't know if I can see a few more people. I will give you a short message before leaving, and give you some comfort."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded after hearing this, but before leaving the hall, she said: "I have arranged for my mother to stay in the market a few days ago. During the ban, she can support herself for the rest of her life. Since then, she has been separated and lived in the yard and recited scriptures and prayed for His Majesty..."

Speaking of this, Shangguan Wan'er's tone was already a little choked, and tears rolled down her cheeks. She held out a volume with both hands: "Your Majesty's daily life, all the details you are used to use are recorded here. Those who come to serve, you can ask them to read them carefully, no, no..."

When Wu Zetian heard this, she felt a little sad. She raised her hand to take the book, opened it for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "You lady is as careful as her hair, and she doesn't even realize the many things she has recorded. It turns out that she is such a harsh person who has tedious service."

She lowered her head and murmured for a moment, and said, "Don't stay in Shendu, go to Xijing. After leaving the palace, there will be civilians, and all the glitz and erase them. If you really have the poverty that is desperate, you won't have nowhere to ask for it."

"I will never violate it if I swear."

Shangguan Wan'er knelt on the ground, crying sadly.

Wu Zetian bent down and patted the back of his neck, and said with a smile: "I know that you are smart and cautious, and since you have a preface, you will not violate it. Let's go and live with peace of mind. If the old things are not enough to remember, you will no longer give you things. If you go out of this door, you will be a new life."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
