Chapter 0006: A Familiar Feeling.
Apart from the clothes and jewelry on her head, her hairstyle is incorrect. From her facial features to her figure, including her fair and tender skin, everything bears a striking resemblance to An Xiaorou, who has always been known as the "campus belle" during her student days.
After the Empress Dowager's remark, it was said that the person who rescued the princess from drowning had knocked her unconscious, which was why she remained in a coma. However, this was only temporary.
Xue Shaodai sat in the room for a long, long time, holding An Xiaorou's sculpture in his hand. In his mind, the images of the princess and An Xiaorou kept flashing like a battle between heaven and earth, making his long-dormant heart palpitate uncontrollably.
Why is she still unconscious?
The horses were heavy and their footsteps were even heavier. The stone lotus leaves in that area looked like they were about to be crushed. Seeing the situation was critical, Xue Shao suddenly started to charge forward. He took a strong arrow step and leaped high in front of the horse. He then grabbed the princess and flew to the side, falling into the water with a loud splash!
Wu Zetian quickly bent down and reached out to gently rub her neck, pressing her face against hers, and softly said, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. Let me help you massage it, and it won't hurt anymore!"
Who was the princess just now?
Over the years, only everything about An Xiaorou has been able to touch his heartstrings. He has seen An Xiaorou countless times in his dreams, but today he saw a woman who looks similar to her!
The woman's wish was immediately fulfilled, and she burst into a silver bell-like laughter. She flicked the reins and shouted, "Go!" The majestic and magnificent tall horse then galloped away.
Help, save us, save us! A group of women were frightened, and two of them even burst into tears.
Oh, I remember now. It was mentioned above that you are Xue Shao! A soldier recognized him and let him go.
After taking a few shots, the princess really woke up. She opened her eyes drowsily and saw Wu Zetian in front of her. Suddenly, she pouted and burst into tears, crying out, "Mother, mother!"
Countless fragments flashed rapidly in Xue Shao's mind, his expression changed suddenly, and his heart surged like a raging wave, unable to calm down anymore!
"Good girl, my dear! It's okay, it's okay!" Wu Zetian stretched out her arms in distress to embrace her. Princess Taiping, crying loudly, was about to get up and throw herself into her mother's arms, but she cried out in pain and collapsed again with an "ouch".
By this time, Wu Zetian's tense face finally relaxed slightly.
It was as if the imperial physician had heard a death curse from hell, causing his whole body to tremble. He quickly twisted his knee and turned around, still kneeling on the ground, and reported, "After using the elixir, the Empress Dowager said that the princess is unharmed!"
She was dressed in a green robe, with a headdress adorned with twelve flower-shaped hairpins. A red brocade belt was tied around her waist, and white jade double pendants hung from it. Her face appeared to be in her early forties, with a broad face, a wide forehead, and long, curved eyebrows. She had a rich and full figure, walking steadily like a mountain.
The princess obviously did not expect the horse to accelerate so quickly. At the moment of starting, she was startled and let out a scream, then nervously crouched on the horse's back, unable to make any sound.
At this moment, the princess is still unconscious. Wu Zetian gently pats her cheek and softly calls out, "Taiping, Taiping?"
The princess was so scared that she screamed several times and almost fell off her horse.
The person in front of us is Wu Zetian, the Empress of the current Great Tang, known as Wu Zetian in later generations. She is nearly sixty years old, but she appears quite young due to her skillful preservation of her appearance.
At this moment, Xue Shao, who was sitting by the fire in another room, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and thought to himself, "This body has been indulging in wine and women for years, and it feels somewhat hollowed out. Even a dip in the spring water of the Dragon Head Pond feels a bit chilly. I should spend more time refining my body in the future."
In Wu Zetian's heart, there arose an inexplicable barrier. On her face, there appeared a hint of the unique indulgence and helplessness of a mother's smile: "To exterminate his clan, wouldn't that implicate even your father, the emperor?"
