Crown Prince's Counterattack

Sima Yi was on his way back to the East Palace, when he happened to pass by a garden with luxuriant branches and flowers, Sima Yi ordered the people around him to keep silent, and walked quietly by himself.

He vaguely heard people arguing, both men and women, and lowered his voice very vigilantly, presumably because he was afraid of being discovered by others, and it was precisely because of this caution that Sima Yi's curiosity was rarely aroused. You must know that there may be hidden stories under every secret in this palace.

They chose the positions very cleverly. The branches and leaves covered the faces of the two people, so they couldn't see clearly. Sima Yi didn't dare to approach, so he could only concentrate on listening to the conversation between the two people.

The distance was a bit far, Sima Yi only knew that the two of them were arguing about something, the man's face was urgent, and the woman's face was slightly bored, but this was not enough to surprise Sima Yi, what really surprised him was the pair He happened to be acquainted with both men and women, and he was also a popular person in front of the Wu family.

"Let go!"

Shangguan Wan'er impatiently wanted to break away from Ming Chongyan's wrist, she didn't like his aggressive posture very much.

"No, you must tell me clearly today"

At this time, Ming Chongyan no longer had the demeanor he had when he met not long ago, and at this moment he looked like a boy trapped in love.

"I have nothing to say to you, the empress is still waiting for me"

Shangguan Wan'er obviously didn't want to get entangled with Ming Chongyan anymore, and was about to leave after leaving a cold word, but how could Ming Chongyan let it go, he was about to pull Shangguan Wan'er back and ask her to give him an explanation, Unexpectedly, an uninvited guest came.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

The two voices were equally astonished, but Shangguan Wan'er unexpectedly revealed a sense of surprise, but Ming Chongyan was a little annoyed.

"Your Highness, you are here!"

Shangguan Wan'er showed joy, took advantage of Ming Chongyan's absent-mindedness, avoided his entanglement, and walked quickly to Sima Yi's side, with a bit of intimacy in her eyes, this kind of intimacy naturally revealed Being seen by Ming Chongyan, another burst of anger suddenly arose in his heart.

"Your Highness, this is a matter between me and Miss Wan'er, I hope Your Highness will not interfere."

Ming Chongyan took a deep breath, even though he was so angry now, he never lost his sense of propriety, and still asked Sima Yi very politely.

It's a pity that the moment Sima Yi decided to step out, he decided that he would not stay out of the matter. It seems that after breaking up with the Wu family today, he might have a fight with the current celebrity in front of him in the future.

"A gentleman should be beautiful as an adult, but what happened today, I just saw that you want to force a girl to do something she doesn't want to do. It's a loss of demeanor. Why don't you let it go, so as not to lose face in the end?"

"It seems that His Highness has made up his mind to intervene in our affairs."

Ming Chongyan's face suddenly darkened. He thought that he was considerate enough to His Royal Highness, and had never offended His Royal Highness, but he didn't expect that it was just a trivial matter. Will refute his face.The thoughtful Ming Chongyan inevitably began to doubt the relationship between Shangguan Wan'er and Sima Yi.

"Master Ming, why did you say that? It's just that there are many people in the palace, and Miss Shangguan is still on duty in the palace. If it is reported that she has an unclear relationship with a man, I'm afraid this is not the result that your lord wants."

"Okay, since this is the case, Wei Chen will leave first."

Hearing Sima Yi's words, Ming Chongyan's face changed, and he knew that he was impulsive today, and he didn't want to affect Shangguan Wan'er because of this matter.

"Wan'er, I'll be looking for you in a few days"

It's not that Ming Chongyan is not depressed. Today, there are people disturbing the situation, and it is really not a good time to talk about some topics in the palace. It is helpless to leave for the time being. However, Ming Chongyan secretly remembers Sima Yi's meddling heart.

Shangguan Wan'er turned her head away, ignoring Ming Chongyan's expectant gaze, and also disapproving of the agreement he made on her own.Shangguan Wan'er's indifference not only did not dispel Ming Chongyan's enthusiasm, but made him think that it was just because of the presence of a third person, so Shangguan Wan'er pretended to be indifferent.

Ming Chongyan, who was upset, finally left, and Sima Yi and Shangguan Wan'er, who stayed behind, looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"Today's matter, thank you for your help."

Shangguan Wan'er bowed her head to Sima Yi, with imperceptible caution.

"It's just a little bit of effort"

Sima Yi didn't care much about his expression.

"Since the matter has been resolved, I will leave first."

As he said that, Sima Yi was about to turn around and leave. He had just taken a step when he turned around and found that his sleeve had been pulled by someone. Sima Yi froze and sighed helplessly.

"I haven't seen you for a long time. Is the distance between Your Highness and me so far?"

Shangguan Wan'er's eyes were slightly moist, and there was an unbearable resentment in her tone, and a little sadness on her face.

"Things are different and people are different. Many things can't go back to the past. You are no longer the lonely and helpless little palace lady, and I am no longer the mischievous and wanton prince. The position where you and I are now is doomed. I can't help myself"

There was unspeakable melancholy in Sima Yi's tone, but this sadness did not belong to him, but to the real prince Li Xian.

In the first year of Linde, Shangguanyi was killed by Empress Wu for drafting the imperial edict to abolish Wu Zetian for Emperor Gaozong. The newly born Shangguan Wan'er and her mother Zheng were sent to the court together.During the time when she was a slave in Ye court, under the careful training of her mother, Shangguan Wan'er was familiar with poetry and books. Not only could she recite poems and write essays, but she was also very intelligent in official affairs.The East Palace and Yeting Palace both belonged to the Taiji Palace. The crown prince at that time was Li Hong, the eldest son of the Wu family, but the relationship between Li Xian and Li Hong brothers was very good. They would often visit the East Palace. Shangguan Wan'er, who is a miscellaneous thing, was amazed by his well-read poetry and books, and Shangguan Wan'er was also fascinated by Li Xian's knowledge and demeanor. This pair of talented men and women quietly developed an ambiguous relationship in this palace.

It's just that I didn't expect that so many things would happen later, which made this supposedly beautiful relationship come to an abrupt end.The cause of Li Hong's sudden death is unknown, and Sima Yi accidentally replaced Li Xian's life. The front and rear palaces are full of undercurrents. Sima Yi is also deliberately alienating Shangguan Wan'er. He has replaced Li Xian's life. But he couldn't replace Li Xian's feelings, but he didn't expect that when they met, she had become the most valued female official under the Wu family - Shangguan Wan'er.

What Li Xian saw from Shangguan Wan'er was a beautiful first love, but Sima Yi could only be on guard. This woman who has gone through several dynasties and was able to mix in Wu's hands is definitely not like her. The appearance of the girl is generally beautiful, so some things are destined to end long ago.

Today Sima Yi stood up to disrupt the situation, even at the expense of fighting against Ming Chongyan, just to fulfill the last obsession in Li Xian's heart. This beautiful emotion belongs to Li Xian and Shangguan Wan'er, so no matter what No matter how sad Shangguan Wan'er felt, Sima Yi also understood that the pain was not due to him, after all, he couldn't escape the words "destiny and indivisibility".

Shangguan Wan'er stared at Sima Yi's leaving back, tears suddenly fell, her voice was choked.

"why……"

This is obviously not what she wants, she just wants to be closer to him, but why things always go against her wishes, how can she fall into the situation where she has no way out now.

Shangguan Wan'er stood there for quite a while, until the wind dried the tears on her face and made her eyes ache, then her mood eased, with a bitter expression on her face, she could no longer Regret, I can only go on step by step like this.

#**************

"see ma'am"

"Get up, why are you here so late? But what's delayed?"

"Wan'er met Lord Ming on the way...and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"

Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a while, but still told the whole thing in detail.Based on her understanding of the empress, even if she doesn't say it, the empress will know from other places. In this case, it is better to say it frankly, so that the empress will not be suspicious.

"Oh……"

Wu Meiniang's tone was calm, and she couldn't hear any surprise, but she looked at Shangguan Wan'er with a little more satisfaction.Really smart people are still liked, not to mention that Wu Meiniang doesn't like others to deceive her, no matter what the purpose is.

She doesn't know about the big and small things in this palace. She has sent someone to look at Shangguan Wan'er since it's been so long. Now it seems that she has lived up to her training. It is even more important.

"You are a smart child. You know what to do and what not to do. Being trapped by love is a problem that only stupid women will have. I believe that Wan'er will not disappoint. One day, you will understand , there is something more exciting than love.”

Wu Meiniang has a lot of meaning, but it is a rare word of sincerity.When Wu Meiniang saw Shangguan Wan'er, it was as if she had seen her past. She was also so intelligent, and she was also obsessed with love and love, but in the end she ended up with scars all over her body.She likes this child, so she is even more unwilling to let her repeat her own mistakes back then.

Love is only temporary, and only the power that is truly in your hands is eternal.

At this time, Sima Yi in the East Palace was shocked. The people he sent out a few years ago finally found the truth he wanted, but the truth was so hot in his hands, so hot. It was beyond his expectation and made him feel cold...
