Princess Taiping stuck out her tongue and looked back. Her mother was standing not far away and looking at her lovingly.
Taiping hopped over and hugged Wu Zetian's arm, saying coquettishly,""Mother, you almost scared me to death!”
Wu Zetian looked at her daughter dotingly," What are you doing sneaking around in Mother's bedroom?”
Taiping blinked." Mother misunderstood Taiping. Taiping is not sneaky."”
Logically speaking, Wu Zetian was quite old at this time, but she did not look old at all. Her soft long hair was still black and shiny, and her skin was fair and delicate like a 28-year-old girl. Her figure was still plump and beautiful, and she looked like a noble lady who was not even 30 years old. It was as if she had been forgotten by time.
When this pair of mother and daughter, who were both extremely beautiful, stood together, the daughter looked like a daughter, while the mother looked like a sister.
The two of them looked 80 - 90% similar. Be it their willow-like eyebrows, tall nose bridge, or those bright red phoenix eyes, or their round chin, they were simply carved from the same mold.
The only difference was her temperament. Wu Zetian was now the Empress of the Tang Empire.
Not only was she a mature and beautiful woman who held great power, listened to politics behind the curtain, moved her body, and raised her aura. Her long-standing status as a ruler made her every frown and smile filled with indescribable nobility and majesty.
Princess Taiping was beautiful, but she was still a childish, mischievous, and a little girl!
Wu Zetian pinched her delicate little nose." Little Taiping, do you think I didn't see it?”
In the hall, the scent of beasts wafted up, and the sweet fragrance lingered between the two rows of pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes, forming a mist in the mountains. Two rows of maids in wide tulip dresses silently lowered their heads on both sides.
The mother and daughter walked to the table. Taiping looked like he had done something wrong and looked at Empress Wu submissively.
Wu Zetian chuckled,"Alright, stop pretending. How can you hide your little thoughts from your mother?"”
Taiping immediately smiled and held Wu Zetian's arm." Aiyaya, mother is still so smart. Taiping was just curious about what this was, so he took a look."”
Wu Zetian waved her hand, and the maids around her immediately came over and cleaned up the chocolates on the ground.
It was just a small piece, and there was still a lot in the box.
Wu Zetian pointed at the box in annoyance." This is what you meant by looking."”
"Aiya, Mother ~" Taiping said in a sweet voice.
Wu Zetian shook her head," I really can't do anything to you. I wonder who will be so unlucky to marry you in the future."”
"Aiyaya, Mother, how can you say that about your daughter?" Taiping said.”
Wu Zetian sighed," Is this dusty thing delicious?”
Taiping's eyes lit up. He licked his lips as if he was savoring the aftertaste." Mother, what kind of pastry is this? Which brand is this?" It's so delicious!"
Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully,"This isn't some family's signboard, it was given to mother by an expert hidden in the marketplace.”
Taiping rolled his eyes." Expert? Then... Mother, where is this expert?"
Wu Zetian stretched out her hand and stroked her daughter's hair, saying mischievously,""What's wrong? Don't tell me you're going to snatch her back to be your husband?”
Taiping was embarrassed." Mother, what are you talking about? I won't be so unreserved."”
Wu Zetian held her forehead and sighed,"When you were five years old, you beat your brother up and ran away like a rat in order to snatch a piece of lotus paste cake. You even said that as long as you wanted it, you would definitely snatch it back.”
Taiping's face was flushed red. He pulled his mother's arm in embarrassment and acted coquettishly." Mother, you're laughing at me again. It's nothing. I don't remember it anyway."”
Wu Zetian smiled and touched her daughter's smooth hand," This person is a great talent. If you can snatch him back, mother would be more than happy."
"Ah?" Taiping looked at her mother in surprise. She knew how high her mother's standards were. She did not expect this mysterious expert to make her mother look at him in a different light.
Taiping hesitated for a moment and said,"Mother, are you going to see this expert these few days?"”
Wu Zetian smiled," That's right. This person's knowledge is extraordinary and he's definitely not an ordinary person. If he can be of use to me, that would be the best. How about it? Do you want to go with mother to take a look?" Maybe he really has such delicious food there."
Taiping thought of the delicious food just now and said righteously,""It doesn't matter if it's delicious or not. The most important thing is that I want to meet the talented person that mother spoke of!”
