    Wu Zetian had four sons and two daughters. The four sons were Li Hong, Li Xian, Li Xian, and Li Dan. The two daughters were Princess An Ding and Princess Taiping.  Among the four sons, Li Xian was the most talented, and he was also the famous "Prince Zhanghuai". He once annotated the "Book of the Later Han" and was called him for a time.  It's a pity that Wu Zetian wanted to be the emperor, so Li Xian became a roadblock for her, and was eventually killed by Wu Zetian.

    The eldest son Li Hong was ill and weak. Some said he died violently, while others said he was killed by Wu Zetian. Anyway, he died.  Zhongzong Li Xian died at the hands of An Lezi and Queen Wei, and now only the youngest Li Dan, who is Ruizong, is left.  Princess Anding died early, and some say Wu Zetian strangled her to death.

    Princess Taibu was Wu Zetian¡¯s youngest daughter. She was talented, resourceful, and politically talented. She gave many ideas for Wu Zetian¡¯s ascension to the throne.  When Li Longji quelled the rebellion between Princess Anle and Empress Wei, Princess Taiping made great efforts. In addition to the six siblings, only she and Ruizong were left. Ruizhong was a "humble and filial friend" and loved her very much.  He seized the opportunity to consolidate his own power, wielding power over the world, and most of the courtiers joined his party.

    Chen Wanrong can tell a lot about Princess Taiping's deeds. Her name is very popular, but I don't know her name. When I saw the signature "Li Lingyue", I thought it was a mistake, so I couldn't help but make fun of her.  It wasn't until Wu Daozi and the others looked at them like monsters that they knew something was wrong.  When they pointed out that Li Lingyue was Princess Taiping, their heads suddenly became a mess.

    Princess Taiping was so powerful that she was one of the "Big Three" at that time. Her influence was second only to Ruizhong and more powerful than the prince. She actually sent an invitation to Chen Wanrong and asked Chen Wanrong to attend the banquet.  It¡¯s also unimaginable, or I¡¯m just confused.

    Not only Chen Wanrong was confused, but Wu Daozi, Wang Han, Zheng Qing and Qing E also couldn't think of it. After being stunned, they asked in unison: "Why would she invite you to the banquet?"

    Chen Wanrong spread his hands and said helplessly: "How did I know?"

    Everybody, look at me and I look at you, no one can find the answer.  Wang Han frowned and asked, "Brother Chen, are you going?"

    Wu Daozi pondered for a while and said: "If the banquet is not good, it is better not to go. If you go, it will leave an excuse for others to attack, so it is better to avoid it."

    This is the way famous philosophers protect themselves, and it¡¯s good advice.  However, Zheng Qing objected: "I still want to go. Although what Brother Wu said is reasonable, I thought that not going would give her an excuse and cause trouble."

    Chen Wanrong agreed with Zheng Qing's view: "Yes, if I don't go, Princess Taiping will definitely be dissatisfied and will make things more difficult for me. Besides, she won't do anything like me, a low-ranking official from the seventh rank."  Make things difficult for me. If she wants to make things difficult for me, she doesn¡¯t need to spend so much effort, just one official is enough."

    "That's right." Wang Han pondered for a while and said, "Brother Chen has made up his own mind about this matter. However, don't let others just tell you the truth." Although Princess Taiping is powerful, after all, the crown prince is Li Longji, so her name is justifiable.  As the crown prince, what she did was unpopular with scholars. This reminder is indeed pertinent.

    Chen Wanrong smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Wang, for reminding me. Let's go eat first."

    The matter was settled, everyone talked and laughed, found a restaurant, and dispersed after eating and drinking.

    It was already very late when we returned to Zheng Mansion. Zheng Zhou did not sleep, but was waiting for them.  He brought the tea with a smile: "Wanrong, sit down. My mother-in-law has a few words to ask you."

    Chen Wanrong sat down with a cup of tea. Zheng Qing sat next to him and asked curiously: "Mom, what do you have to say?"

    Zheng Zhou¡¯s face turned solemn and asked very seriously: ¡°Wanrong, how do you handle this matter? Should you go or not?¡±

    Unexpectedly, she also cared about this matter. Zheng Qing answered on her behalf: "Mom, of course I went."

    "No!" Zheng Zhou refused with just two words.

    Zheng Wanru also came in: "Brother-in-law, you can't go. Think about it, Princess Taiping is so unpopular. If you go, someone will poke your spine and say you are flattering the powerful. It is a big deal for your reputation to be stained."

    Mrs. Zheng Zhou agreed with him very much: "Yes, Wan Rong, you seem to be right."

    Chen Wanrong had already made up his mind about this matter. He didn't expect Zheng Zhou's mother and daughter to be so opposed. They were thinking of words to say when Zheng Zhou continued to analyze the pros and cons: "Wanrong, think about it. If Zai Rong is in the East Palace, you  What would the prince think if he went to Princess Taiping's banquet? How should he deal with Zai Rong?"

    "Mother-in-law, the prince is a smart man and would not think like this." Chen Wanrong disagreed with her.

    Zheng Wanru took over the conversation: "The prince is smart, but once someone says that you have a close relationship with Princess Taiping and that you are Princess Taiping's person, what will the prince think then? The relationship between officialsOkay, I took a big step and walked straight up.  Zheng Qing and the others hurriedly followed.

    When I came closer, it turned out that four gardeners were repairing the work. They were pruning what needed to be repaired and pruning what needed to be cut. They were so busy that beads of sweat hung on their foreheads.  A closer look shows that the four of them are quite young, in their fifties. Judging from their skillful movements, they must be very experienced gardeners.

    "Excuse me, is this Qiandi's flower garden?" Chen Wanrong coughed lightly.

    Only then did the four gardeners notice that someone had come in. They stood up quickly and looked at Chen Wanrong, a little surprised: "Yes. Excuse me, do you have anyone named Chen?"

    "I am Chen Wanrong." Chen Wanrong introduced himself.

    The four of them bowed their heads and said, "I have met the master."

    Ruizong should have sent someone to inform them, otherwise it would be impossible to be so polite.  Chen Wanrong hurriedly helped him up: "Old man, don't be constrained by this courtesy. Did the emperor say what to do with this flower garden?"

    The four gardeners were very surprised and were stunned for a while. The gardener with a gray beard smiled and said: "Master, this is a strange question for you to ask. The flower garden belongs to the mansion, so of course it is your disposal."  "

    Chen Wanrong wanted Hua Fu too much, but Ruizhong didn't say how to deal with it, so he had to ask clearly.  He said hurriedly: "I don't know what the emperor means, so I'm just asking."

    "We have been waiting here for more than 20 years, and finally we have a new owner." The four gardeners were quite happy.

    Chen Wanrong was very excited: "You all go and have a rest. Don't practice yet."

    A gardener hurriedly argued: "Master, no, we have to hurry up, otherwise we will miss work."

    "I'm not saying not to prune, I'm saying to postpone the pruning. I have great use for the flowers, leaves, stems, and poles, and it's not cost-effective to prune now." Chen Wanrong explained seriously.

    Wang Han was very surprised and asked: "Brother Chen, what is the use of it?"

    "It can be used to make perfume!" Chen Wanrong blurted out.  (To be continued. If you want to know about the funeral, please log on to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters. Support the author and support genuine reading!) (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
