The most important thing for Queen Wang is respect and inferiority. Because she comes from a famous family, she cares more about it.
The reason why Lu was able to be Li Zhi's wet nurse had many twists and turns. In the final analysis, in the eyes of Queen Wang, she just didn't deserve her attention.
Therefore, even if the relationship between the two is okay on the surface, it is actually not harmonious behind the scenes.
However, Queen Wang would not take the initiative to trouble the Lu family because of her face. Moreover, with Li Zhi here, she would not betray her face.
When Wu Zhao heard this, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand behind him.
After a while, a wet nurse came over holding four-year-old Li Hong.
Wu Zhao took it, scratched the tip of Li Hong's nose, and said with a smile: "When I gave birth to this child, I had to rely on your guidance. It has been four years in the blink of an eye."
"You should always hug this child."
"This..." Lu hesitated.
Seeing Li Hong's cute appearance, she really wanted to hug him, and she had hugged Li Zhi before. If Li Hong succeeded to the throne one day, wouldn't she have hugged two generations of emperors?
But because of this, she didn't dare to be rude.
She didn't want to, but Wu Zhao had already forced it through.
"Ouch..." Mrs. Lu quickly reached out and took it with a look of fondness on her face.
"This little baby really looks like a pheasant slave..."
After saying this, Mrs. Lu quickly closed her mouth, and she accidentally called out His Majesty's nickname...
Wu Zhao saw tears glistening in Lu's eyes and couldn't help but ask: "Why are you crying suddenly? But recalling something bad?"
Lu wiped her cheek: "It's nothing."
She does have bad memories, because she has been holding other people's children, but her own child was killed.
Wu Zhao naturally knew her past, and then asked: "To thank you for your teaching, Zhaoyi would like to ask, do you have any wishes?"
Mrs. Lu slowly handed the child back.
"I... do have a wish, but... I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize it."
Wu Zhao frowned slightly: "It's difficult?"
Mrs. Lu nodded: "That's all, everything is unsatisfactory, but as a slave, it doesn't matter whether you realize it or not. I just hope that your majesty can become like Taizong one day..."
At this point, she stopped talking.
Wu Zhao murmured in her heart, it turned out that she cared about His Majesty.
"Nine out of ten things in the world are unsatisfactory. It is true that wishes are difficult to come true. Not to mention you, old man. Even Your Majesty has many unsatisfactory things, all because of restrictions imposed by others."
"But the past few years have been relatively good. With the Imperial Master in the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty has gained a lot of confidence. Now he is working hard and has the intention to rise up."
"It's a pity that freezing is like a day's cold. With just one imperial master, it's difficult for him to have his own say in everything. Not to mention that half of the civil and military officials rarely meet His Majesty. Let's talk about our harem empress. He is not a general person either.”
"According to Zhaoyi, as a woman, it's good for her to do her duty and be in peace. In the past, Emperor Taizong and the Mother of the Nation had such great love. Who knows that the Mother of the Nation is a virtuous and courteous minister?"
"But even if a mother is responsible for the world, she still takes her husband as the guideline. Whatever your majesty says, it is what we women should do."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Lu slapped her thigh and said angrily:
"Who says it's not the case! Now that the mother of the country is in trouble, she finds someone else to vent her anger on. Even I was taken advantage of by her..."
Lu pointed at her back, but put it down as soon as she got it halfway.
Lu was whipped three times as a warning because she contradicted Queen Wang. She still remembers it.
"Alas!" Mrs. Lu raised her head and looked at Wu Zhao seriously, and couldn't help but sigh: "Just pretend that I have drunk too much, and say something treasonous. It would be great if you were the master of the harem. At least His Majesty can live in peace."
Wu Zhao lowered his head and looked at teasing Li Hong: "Look at what you said, I am not that good..."
Even so, she smiled in her heart, "It's done!"
As soon as Lu thought about this matter and combined with the recent affairs in the DPRK, this idea became out of control.
"I have a way, maybe I can let you...let you..." Lu couldn't say these words about becoming the master of the harem.
But Wu Ming understood what she meant and couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to say?"
"I know someone. If he helps me, he can definitely put you in the back seat!"
"who?"
Lu stood up and said: "I will take you to find the Imperial Master! With his prestige among the people, as long as he gives a little support, won't the people of this world support you?"
"Compared to the civil and military officials of the DPRK and China, in the final analysis, the words of the people are the most important! As long as they promote you, Your Majesty will definitely take advantage of the situation!"
Wu Zhao was slightly startled, hadn't she thought about it, but he was not interested at all. If she had bothered her in the past, wasn't that sincerity to make people unhappy?
"To tell you the truth, I have actually already contacted the Imperial Master."
"Oh? What does Emperor Master mean? He must have agreed, right?"
In her opinion, Li Zhi was entrusted by Taizong to Li Yunxiao and others, just like Li Yunxiao's son, and there was no reason not to help.
Wu Zhao shook his head, then chuckled and said: "Forget it, the Imperial Master is not one of us in the palace. If he doesn't want to, we won't bother him."
"It's getting late, I'll leave first, so don't send me away."
"Are you leaving now?"
Wu Zhao smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I will come see you again when I have time."
Lu had not talked to someone so freely for a long time. She smiled and waved her hand: "Then I would like to send Zhaoyi my best wishes!"
....
After coming out, Wu Zhao couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The words Li Yunxiao really made her understand what it means to be absent from the court, but there is a legend about this person in the court.
After coming out, Wu Zhao got on the carriage and headed to Ganye Temple.
Unlike the Lu family, Xue Jieyu is more difficult to fight than the Lu family.
Wu Zhao first asked her servants to cooperate with her and let her know that she was pregnant again.
Then she used her own painful experience to win sympathy, but Xue Jieyu still looked indifferent and knocked on the wooden fish.
Wu Zhao couldn't help but frown, but she admired the other party's determination.
Then, she kicked everyone out, leaving only herself kneeling in front of the Buddha, chanting sutras with Xue Jieyu.
The two of them were speechless for two hours.
In the end, Xue Jieyu sighed, looked back at Wu Zhao's belly, and then slowly said:
"Every bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit. I know what Zhaoyi wants, but I am a practicing person, and tranquility is my foundation."
"Besides, outsiders are not allowed to participate in the affairs of the imperial court. Zhaoyi should not speak out, Amitabha..."
Wu Zhao was stunned for a while, her words completely blocked her path!
But why does she know so well what she wants to do with her?
Lost in thought, Wu Zhao asked after a moment, "No outsider can participate, Zhaoyi will not recognize it."
"Zhaoyi wants to ask you a question. You have worked hard to raise His Majesty for many years. You should know what His Majesty is thinking. Can't you help fulfill it?"
Xue Jieyu took out her Buddhist beads and fiddled with them, as if she had done something wrong, her eyes wandering around.
"You'd better leave. I've already helped you when you two went beyond etiquette."
boom!
Suddenly there was a roar in Wu Zhao's mind!
"You...are you the figure who left that day?"
Wu Zhao couldn't help but recall that when she was in love with Li Zhi, she thought the person she felt was the Xuantian Sect was spying on her. In the end, it turned out to be Xue Jieyu, who had never been guessed!
