Chapter Six

Ying Zetian run into the temple and kneel down in front of Tang Ying "Mama, help me, please, one of my siblings is sick."

Tang Ying look at the little girl who was kneeling in front of her. On the surface, although this little girl was dressed as a boy. Tang Ying knew that she was a girl. After all, Tang Ying herself was once a beggar also and was kidnap into the brothels of Changan and forced to work in this line.

So, Tang Ying knew from one sight that this little boy is a clear-cut girl. if not for the fact that the original owner of her brothel had saved her and adopt her as her daughter. Tang Ying will still be forced to work in the lowest brothels in Changan where it caters to anyone as long as they have money. Tang Ying had frequently seen this little girl running around the brothels begging.

Maybe it was because Tang Ying had once seen Ying Zetian desperately protecting her "siblings" in the temple by being beaten up instead of the younger children. Tang Ying agrees to go to the temple and have a look. Tang Ying eyes widen when she saw her adopted son that was sitting in a corner of the broken-down temple when she entered.

From the expression Tang Ying saw in the little girl's eyes, Tang Ying finally smiled. Tang Ying was relieved first as she had worried for her son for one whole day until she was almost tempted not to open for business and continue to search for Tang Wudi. Second, Tang Ying smiled as it was because she knew the little girl also understand her.

The little girl understood that she could not bring her son back and will be coming back later at night. What a smart little girl. Tang Ying turned and walked out of the brothel after asking her servants to call for a doctor. And Ying Zetian went and softly console Tang Wudi in a tone that only he could hear.

Night falls and as expected, two people appeared in the temple after letting the people waiting outside for Tang Ying fainted. Tang Ying carry Tang Wudi while her head dark guard carry Ying Zetian and they flew back through the night skies to her brothel with the children silent in their embrace.

As Tang Ying worries for the rest of the other children in the temple, she had gotten the rest of her dark guards to slowly clear the children out of the temple to her brothel. After all, Tang Ying could still offer the children a place to stay and food in her brothel.

As most importantly, Tang Ying have a feeling that the kids that this little girl lead will definitely be talents. After bathing, the little girl was sat in front of a table full of food. Tang Ying smiled when she saw how cute the little girl was eating with her face stuffed full of food like a little hamster. Tang Ying decide to adopt the little girl. As no matter what, Tang Wudi will destinated to be going back to his original place in this life no matter what. And if Tang Ying knew that she adopted this girl, she will not be lonely in the future once Tang Wudi left her.

"Little girl, what is your name and how old are you? Do you want to be my adopted daughter?"

"Mama Tang, are you really serious? My name is Ying Zetian and I am eight years old today."

"Do not worry, young Ying Zetian. No matter what if you still worry about my intentions. You can treat this as my thanks for saving my son." Tang Ying said while affectionately rubbing the little girl's head.

Ying Zetian jumps into Tang Ying embrace after rubbing her mouth with a wet cloth on the table and said yes immediately.
