Chapter 629 Never Regret
Chapter 629 Never Regret
Shangguan Wan'er pursed her lips and remained silent. She seemed to understand how she died later. It was just a matter of state affairs.
So this is perfectly normal.
If she had protected herself in time, she might have survived. However, she had already tasted power, so how could she be willing to be a woman in the harem?
"Later, Empress Wei placed her own people in charge of the Taiyan Pavilion, the internal and external military power, and the central imperial guards, and the power of the government fell into the hands of the Wei family.
Senior Shangguan, you and Princess Taiping drafted a will, appointing Li Chongmao as the crown prince, Li Dan as regent, and Empress Wei as empress dowager regent, in order to balance the power of all parties.
But Empress Wei at that time was not willing to do that. She wanted to emulate Wu Zetian. She wanted to be the empress, not the queen mother.
Being a queen mother is not as good as being an empress!
Moreover, the people around Empress Wei also supported her in emulating Wu Zetian.
But no one else could make Empress Wei happy.
Li Longji of Linzi, who received the news at that time, discussed it with Princess Taiping and decided to strike first.
Li Longji launched the Tanglong Rebellion, and led the imperial guards to attack the palace, killing Empress Wei, Princess Anle, and the Wei family. Li Longji did not let you go, and killed you as well. You died at the age of 47. "This coup killed many people.
Shangguan Wan'er smiled bitterly. In fact, she had thought about this result. Her ending would not be too good.
Cai Wenji and Xie Daoyuan looked at Shangguan Wan'er but could not say any words of comfort.
They couldn't say anything like asking Shangguan Wan'er to leave the court.
If Shangguan Wan'er really just wanted to live in peace, why would she get involved in these things?
"After you passed away, Senior Shangguan, Princess Taiping was very sad. She took care of your funeral arrangements herself and buried you in her family's cemetery.
In order to commemorate you, Senior Shangguan, Princess Taiping also wrote on your epitaph: "Long live the Lord, and the song of pepper flowers."
In the early years of the Kaiyuan period, Li Longji also sent people to collect all of your poems, Shangguan Xian, and compiled them into a collection of 20 volumes.
How should I put it? It's not easy to get into the court, and it's easy to die. But it's not easy to die anywhere. I believe that you, Senior Shangguan, have never regretted entering the court, right?" Li Wu looked at Shangguan Wan'er and asked. At that time, although Wu Zetian was the emperor, there were not many female officials.
Shangguan Wan'er nodded and said, "Of course I have never regretted it. I want to be an official. Why can't a woman be an official?"
It is naturally not as easy for a woman to become an official as it is for a man. If she were not the empress, she thought, she would not be able to become a female official. Although there were records of female officials in previous dynasties, how many female officials were there?
When the ancestors in front of the sky curtain heard what Shangguan Wan'er said, many of them fell silent.
In fact, they had reflected on this a long time ago. No one stipulated that women could not go to school, become officials, or join the army. They thought that women were weak and should stay at home and take care of their husbands and children.
However, they had been looking at the sky for such a long time, and many powerful women had appeared among them. Some were talented in literature, and some were skilled in martial arts. However, it was precisely because of their identity as women that they were restricted in many ways.
Long before, many dynasties had announced that women could also study and become officials.
However, these are only available after the appearance of the little fairy. Before the little fairy appeared, the woman naturally could not do these things.
It was the little fairy who brought about many changes and made them know a lot.
Many women who were trapped at home resonated with the comments in the barrage. They talked about their dreams and what they wanted to do, but they couldn't do it and were trapped in the backyard, which was something they didn't want to do at all.
But it is so, they have no way to resist, how can they resist?
Li Wu laughed and looked at Shangguan Wan'er with admiration, "Senior Shangguan, you are right. Why? Now I think things will be different in the future. Come on, Senior Shangguan!"
Li Wu made a cheering gesture, and Shangguan Wan'er nodded and said, "Little Immortal, don't worry!"
"I have just finished talking about your deeds, Senior Shangguan. Of course, I have not told you everything. How your life will be like in the future depends on you." Changes are bound to happen, and it depends on how Shangguan Wan'er does it.
Even for those who have not come to the Heavenly Curtain, the fate of many people is changing, and many dynasties are also changing.
These are all thanks to the system and her, which makes Li Wu a little happy. She feels that she has saved many lives. Although many things appeared in advance, the emergence of the system is unusual, so isn't it normal to change many things?
"Thank you, little immortal," Shangguan Wan'er raised her glass and said, and the others followed suit.
"Don't be polite, let's eat. We still have to go out and play later. How about we go shopping?" Li Wu's tone was quite excited. It would be boring for everyone to go shopping alone.
It would be nice to have someone to go shopping with.
The three of them looked at each other and said, "Of course you can. We have long wanted to go shopping with you, little fairy."
When they saw the sky curtain before, the little fairy took other people to play, and they were so envious that they wished they could take his place.
Now it’s finally their turn. I guess a lot of people envy them.
A few people ate, cleaned up, took some hangover pills, and then prepared to go out. They brought a few umbrellas with them.
"Finally I got on the car. I've seen it countless times but never sat on it. Now I can finally sit on it," said Cai Wenji. It was so comfortable to sit in it. The cushions were soft and the car was warm, so it wasn't cold.
"It's true that when I saw the sky dome before, I envied others for being able to sit on it. Now it's finally my turn," Shangguan Wan'er also said with a smile. This is very different from riding in a carriage.
In front of the sky curtain, the first few people who had never taken a ride or gone out to play were very dissatisfied. They started talking in the barrage again, telling about their "grievances" and asking the little fairy to compensate them. Although they had been compensated, it was not enough. They also wanted to go play.
The three of them started chatting in the car, talking about what they wanted to do in the future and giving advice to Cai Wenji.
"Hey, I see the rain seems to have stopped?" Xie Daoyun said, looking at the glass in front of her, there was no rain at all. This was a great feeling. It would be great if the rain would stop as soon as they went out.
Although the fairy said that they would not get wet where they were going, they naturally believed it, but they also hoped that it would not rain, as they still wanted to see more places in the future.
"It's definitely stopped. It looks like we're lucky. The rain stopped as soon as we went out. That's good news," Shangguan Wan'er also said while looking out the window.
They had already arrived in the city, and there were many cars and people.
The three of them looked curiously at the cars coming and going outside, the tall buildings, shops, etc. All of this was completely different from what they had seen before. When looking at it from the skylight, they could not see so many things. Only by seeing it with their own eyes could they be more shocked.
