[Wu Zetian colleagues] Wu Lingchun

Wan'er woke up suddenly.

She sat up abruptly, touched the abnormality in her lower abdomen, and felt a little bit of pain, which made her mind a little clearer——

Now is not a dream, but before...

She raised the curtain in panic and looked towards the window.

The night is pitch black, not a ray of light, it should still be late at night, right?

It is said that in the middle of the night, when the yin energy is heavy and the yang energy is weak, ghosts like to roam freely at this time.

Wan'er closed her eyes, trying to recall the scene in her dream just now.

It seems real and unreal, but most of the content can still be recalled, especially the helpless feeling of being unable to speak or move.

The numbness in the left side of her body was clearly felt, and Wan'er realized that she slept on the left side before, which pressed her heart.

However, Ming Chongyan...

Wan'er rubbed her eyebrows wearily.

In the dream, Ming Chongyan told her that he had come to "say goodbye" to her, and that he was "going".

Where is he going?

After finding a few traces of clarity in her mind, Wan'er frowned: The place Ming Chongyan was going to didn't seem like a good place at all.

But he is clearly so happy...

Wan'er suddenly opened her eyes wide——

completely awake.

Ming Chongyan in the dream was clearly saying goodbye to her!

Wan'er never believed in ghosts and ghosts in the past.

If she believed it, she would not be able to go to the grave with her mentor.

In her previous life, she faced everything including ancient tombs, cultural relics, and even ancient corpses with the mentality of a scientific researcher.

But now, after going through a time-travel that killed Wan'er in her previous life, she couldn't believe it, Wan'er has to keep some reservations about "the nether world" and the "feudal superstition" that she once sneered at.

Ming Chongyan is a bit of a Taoist, at least he saw Wan'er's extraordinary background when he first saw Wan'er.

Wan'er's brows furrowed again: In the dream, what did Ming Chongyan say?

"Lady Shangguan came from an extraordinary place, she is an extraordinary person, don't be like that mediocre woman!"

Does this dream indicate what will happen to Ming Chongyan?

The dark night makes one's heart fragile, and Wan'er's thoughts diverge towards a dark trend.

She still remembered that in the history she was familiar with, Ming Chongyan died at the hands of Li Xian's eunuch Zhao Daosheng.

It was also the death of Ming Chongyan that opened the prelude to Li Xian's downfall.

From that incident, Empress Wu really started to attack Li Xian.

And in this time and space, now that Li Xian is in the East Palace, his momentum is in full swing. Many officials in the court who stick to tradition are extremely optimistic about him, and regard him as the hope of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Li Xian is also a person who can do whatever he wants, and Ming Chongyan's outspokenness, maybe he has talked nonsense about Li Xian, so it's hard not to be jealous of Li Xian...

After all, Ming Chongyan still has some weight with Empress Wu and the emperor.

Wan'er couldn't lie down anymore.

She always felt that the crisis was in ambush beside her, within reach.

That uneasy feeling was too strong.

what is it?

Wan'er's face was pale, and she couldn't figure it out.

Ming Chongyan's ending is obviously doomed.

Wan'er knew she couldn't save him.

What's more, Ming Chongyan himself seems quite willing to die...

Suddenly, a certain idea flashed across Wan'er's mind, and it disappeared like a shooting star across the sky without Wan'er catching it.

The desire to survive overcame the urge to explore the reason for that flickering thought, so Wan'er put on her clothes and got up.

She stood in front of the window, opened the window, and let the cool night wind blow on her face.

The chilly wind with the rain that hadn't cleared up during the day calmed down Wan'er's chaotic mind.

Calm enough for her to analyze the situation in front of her objectively and cautiously, so as to get rid of that uneasy sense of crisis.

After a long time, Wan'er slowly clenched her palm——

She's not quite sure what she's thinking, but at least, it's a direction.

In the darkness, Wan'er lit a candle, and carefully pushed open the small room that was used as a warehouse.

All the previous rewards, including those given by the emperor and Empress Wu, were all stored here by the Zheng family.

Wan'er's footsteps were extremely light, for fear of waking her mother up.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zheng took care of her worries during the day and slept soundly at night.

The light of the candles shines on the various prizes stacked in an orderly manner in the small room.

However, it also disrupted this order. On the wall, the shadow formed by the candlelight cast, turning everything in the room into an indistinguishable monster.

She bared her teeth and opened her mouth wide open, as if she wanted to swallow the seemingly small Wan'er alive.

Wan'er took a deep breath, suppressing the panic in her heart.

I am afraid that if the problem can be solved, no one will be killed in this world.

Putting the candle aside enough for light, Wan'er subconsciously stroked the string of southern red agate beads on her left wrist.

It was given to her by Xue Jieyu on her birthday that day.

The warm feeling penetrated into the palm, making Wan'er's heart more stable.

With the blessing of Buddhist beads, should the ghosts and monsters retreat?

Wan'er said to herself.

In the whirlpool, Wan'er realized that those days in her previous life were purely yearning.

Gathering her mind, Wan'er's eyes wandered among the various rewards.

She has an excellent memory, no matter what the rewards from the emperor or Empress Wu, no matter what they are, she will record them in the book and keep them in her heart.

In the deep palace, Wan'er had to be on guard: the so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, she can't be calculated by people in a daze.

Because everything has an impression, Wan'er is sure that if something unusual is mixed in, she will be able to spot it right away.

After checking like this for about half an hour, when her eyes fell on a certain corner, Wan'er's face changed slightly.

After all, she discovered something strange.

No, this thing is not unfamiliar!

Wan'er opened the wooden box, and what appeared inside were clearly a few old books and a stack of papers with yellowed edges.

This……

Wan'er was startled into a cold sweat by the impressive words "Book of Jin" on the old book, and the clear words "The ministers and officials follow the imperial edict..." on the stack of papers——

Isn't this what Li Xian said that day, "the old things of the boss of Shangguan"!

How did they get here? !

They should be in the wooden box that Li Xian took over from Zhao Daosheng that day!

Wan'er glanced at the wooden box in panic.

This is definitely not the one in Li Xian's hand that day!

Wan'er suddenly felt that there was an evil and terrifying hand strangling her throat in the dark night.

Shangguanyi committed the crime of treason back then, these are forbidden items, they should have been handed over to the Secretary long ago, otherwise, why did Wan'er sternly reject Li Xian's "good intentions" that day?

Could it be that Li Xian tried every means to put this thing in the reward and send it here?

In that case...

Wan'er's legs went limp and she almost fell to the ground.

In that case, it not only means that Li Xian's cronies are ambushing beside the emperor and even Empress Wu; it also means that Li Xian wants to use this to put her to death!

Just imagine that she is a young talented person, she and her mother live in the courtyard, and Li Xian can search their residences whenever he finds an excuse.

It couldn't be easier to find these things.

and then?

Then, Li Xian can report to the emperor.

Even if the emperor sympathizes with the Shangguan family, even if Empress Wu can speak for them, if Li Xian wants to make trouble, he will definitely make this matter public. Bar?

Moreover, if Empress Wu knew that she had hidden these things privately, it was hard not to doubt her loyalty to serve by her side.

Until then... until then...

Wan'er didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Li Xian's strategy is not poisonous.

After using a few inner eunuchs to pretend to be people around the emperor to deceive her and try to take care of her, did he attack her again this time?

Wan'er's heart beat wildly——

The mother and daughter had already been placed on the chopping block, just waiting for the life-threatening knife to be chopped down.

Wan'er breathed heavily, trying to calm down her messy thoughts.

Reason tells Wan'er that Li Xian may not have done this.

Before Li Xian wanted to silence her, it was probably because Wan'er listened to what Li Hong said in the hall at that time, and Li Xian felt murderous.

At that time, Wan'er was just a little female historian, and it was easy for Li Xian to want her life.

But now, Wan'er is already a fifth-grade talent in the palace, "the emperor's woman", even if Li Xian wants to do something to her, he can't help but cherish her feathers.

Could he guarantee to bring down Wan'er in one fell swoop?

Isn't he afraid of taking Wan'er down and getting dirty all over himself?

The current him is the crown prince, only a short step away from the supreme position.There was absolutely no need for him to take such a risk just to get rid of Wan'er.

In comparison, Wan'er is more inclined, Li Xian's intention to bribe her is far more than his intention to kill her.

Everyone knows that "Lady Shangguan" is now a popular person around Tianhou.If Li Xian could bribe her, wouldn't it be more convenient to do many things?

So, who is trying to frame her?

Wan'er couldn't figure it out for the time being.

But no matter who that person is, Wan'er can be sure that if she doesn't take action as soon as possible, her and her mother's lives will be in danger.

If it hadn't been for the confinement at night, Wan'er would have brought this thing to Empress Wu immediately, to explain the truth and ask for her forgiveness first.

This is the first step in saving your life.

The reality is that Wan'er had to close the door of the small room again, light a candle, and return to her bedroom.

At the same time, he brought the wooden box back.

She has to keep this thing well, and it cannot be taken by others.

So sleepless to see the white in the East, Wan'er climbed up with sore eyes and chaotic head.

Just as he was thinking about it, he hurried to wash his hands and took the wooden box that could bring disasters at any time to the Chengqing Palace to meet Empress Wu, but unexpectedly there was a visitor at the door early in the morning——

Zhao Ying stood at the door with a pleasant smile, and bowed to Wan'er: "According to the order of the Empress Dowager, I have sent two little maidservants to serve the Ling Tang Madam Zheng."

As he said that, he smiled and said to Wan'er: "Ms. Shangguan, pack up quickly and let us go back. The Queen of Heaven has been talking about you a lot in the past two days! Everyone has lost two catties! We all feel sorry for you just looking at it." !"
