Princess Taiping stared at the poem, her pair of charming eyes slightly narrowed.
Shanghai Wan 'er was sitting on the side, quietly looking at her expression, she felt uneasy.
Princess Taiping looked at it for a long time, she chuckled and said, "This' Wanting to play the Song of Dongyuan, greedy for the Book of Ji Bei 'doesn't seem to match well. It would be better if it was changed to Jiangnan Song!"
Shangguan Wan 'er heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Ah! That's right! Jiangnan Song is also an ancient song, it's more suitable for this Book of Ji Bei! "She picked up the brush and ticked off the Song of Dongyuan and wrote 'Jiangnan Song' next to it.
Princess Taiping smiled faintly and said, "This line of yours, 'Under the leaves, at the beginning of Dongting' … it doesn't match the current situation."
Shanghai Wan 'er smiled and said, "That's okay. I just said that I had nothing to do, so I casually scribbled a few strokes of the poem' Palace Resentment '. It's not a suitable work for the current situation. In Qu Yuan's' Lady Xiang ', it says:' The autumn wind curls up, under the leaves of the trees in Dongting. 'The artistic conception is quite similar to resentment, so I used it. Princess, please don't laugh at me. "
Princess Taiping smiled and put down the poem. Then she chatted with Shanghai Wan 'er about something else. Shanghai Wan 'er saw that Princess Taiping no longer paid attention to the poem, she felt relieved. They chatted for a while, then Princess Taiping got up and took her leave. Shanghai Wan' er saw her off. When she got back to her room, she gently patted her chest, she was not afraid at all.
Princess Taiping left Shanghai Wan 'er's residence and walked out of the Museum of History. The faint smile on her face disappeared like the wind.
Her pair of black eyebrows slightly frowned, the suspicion just now floated up in her mind again.
Wan 'er was talented in poetry, she did like to write poems. But she was an unmarried girl, so it was a bit strange for her to suddenly imitate others and write a poem of' Maiden Resentment '. Furthermore, with Wan 'er's poetic talent, it could be said that her words were eloquent. When had she ever seen her scribble on a poem for a long time, especially when she made the mistake of' Song of the East Plains' and 'Book of the North of Ji'?
Princess Taiping couldn't help but think of the part that Wan 'er, Shanghai Wan' er had altered. If she felt that the original sentence was inappropriate, she could just cross it out. Wasn't the sentence "Dongyuan Song" also crossed out? Why did she erase it into a big blob of ink? Could it be that she was trying to hide something?
"Western Region! Judging from the strokes of the two words that were not very clean, they should be from the Western Region. Could it be that this girl really had a sweetheart who was far away in the Western Region? That's not right … She has been living in the palace for a long time. When did she know a general who was guarding the border? With her talent and knowledge, how could she have taken a fancy to those martial artists? "
The more Princess Taiping thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. At first she wanted to leave the Imperial Palace, but as she was thinking along the way, she suddenly changed her route and went to see Wei Tuan 'er.
Wei Tuan 'er had now been bought over by her and became her eyes and ears in the Imperial Palace.
But Wei Tuan 'er was insatiably greedy. She had faintly sensed that Wei Tuan' er was also in collusion with Wu Sansi's party. She couldn't be trusted and put in an important position. Moreover, when it came to her usefulness in the Imperial Palace, Wei Tuan 'er was obviously not as good as Shanghai Wan' er. It was just that Princess Taiping knew Shanghai Wan 'er's character and knew her position by her mother's side, so she didn't dare to make any moves to rope her in.
Now that this abnormality had been discovered, Princess Taiping really wanted to find out whether Shanghai Wan 'er really had a sweetheart and whether her sweetheart was in Longyou. If she could find out something and help her, would she still be afraid that she wouldn't be able to use her?
…
Yang Fan returned to the capital. The memorial requesting for his merit had already reached Luoyang. The memorial reached Shanghai Wan 'er first. When Wan' er got the news of her sweetheart, she was happy at first, but when she read the content of the memorial, she was even more happy. When Wu Zetian was about to leave the court, she put the memorial on the top.
Wu Zetian was also overjoyed when she read the memorial. This was something worth flaunting after she ascended to the throne. It was a very glorious matter, and the person who made the greatest contribution came from the Featherwood Guard, from the hundred steeds, from her personal guards of the Emperor. This made her especially happy.
The news spread quickly. Wu Youyi of the Yulin Guard and Xue Huaiyi of the White Horse Temple were very happy. Yang Fan was one of the Hundred Cavalry, and he was Wu Youyi's direct subordinate. Xue Huaiyi was also happy that he had such an outstanding disciple.
Princess Taiping, of course, also heard the news of Yang Fan's merit …
"Everyone, the Hundred Cavalry Bodyguards have returned to the capital. They are now waiting outside the Meridian Gate for the decree."
Shanghai Wan 'er had just left the court and was sitting in Wu Cheng Hall. She bowed and reported to Wu Zetian. Her face was light and breezy. Very few people could see the faint joy in the corners of her eyes.
Gao Ying, who was standing behind Wu Zetian, was suddenly happy. She subconsciously looked to the side. Xiao Man was really happy. Apart from her Elder Brother, who had disappeared since childhood, Erlang was the man she cared about the most.
Wu Zetian said happily, "Oh, they're back? Haha, quickly summon them into the palace. Tell Yang Fan, who made the first contribution, to come see me! "
Shanghai Wan 'er pursed her lips into a smile and said, "Recently the state affairs have been busy. It's rare to see everyone so happy. Seeing everyone happy, Wan' er is also happy. The Hundred Cavalry has been ordered to go west and have made a great contribution to the stability of the Western Region. Why don't you let Wan 'er go and welcome them on behalf of everyone. It will also show everyone's love for talent. "
Wu Zetian laughed and said, "Look at your glib tongue. Good, you go and welcome them on behalf of me!"
Shangguan Wan 'er bowed and said in a sweet voice, "Wan' er obeys!"
Not long after Wan 'er left, Wu Zetian and Wei Tuan' er came in one after another. As soon as she saw Wu Zetian's beaming face, Princess Taiping smiled and said, "What happy event did Mother encounter? Why are you so happy?"
Ever since Wu Zetian ascended to the throne, because of Princess Taiping's marriage, the mother and daughter were quite unhappy. However, after that, Princess Taiping wanted to intervene in politics, so she took the initiative to ease the relationship between her and Wu Zetian. On the surface, the mother and daughter had returned to their former intimacy.
Wu Zetian saw her and said with a smile, "It's Ling Yue. Come, sit beside Mother. Haha, yes, mother is very happy today. The Hundred Cavalry sent by the court to the Western Region have returned to the capital. I was about to summon Yang Fan, who made the first contribution."
Princess Taiping made an "oh" sound and sat beside Wu Zetian. She looked around and asked casually, "Where is Wan 'er? Why is she not beside Mother?"
Wu Zetian smiled and said, "Haha, Wan 'er understood mother's desire to seek talents and went to welcome them on behalf of mother."
Princess Taiping slightly frowned and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.
Last time when she saw the poem written by Wan 'er, Princess Taiping was suspicious and specially asked Wei Tuan' er to investigate the news of Shanghai Wan 'er. Although Wei Tuan 'er had eyes and ears everywhere in the palace, the affair between Wan' er and Yang Fan was something that even Wan 'er's most trusted palace eunuchs did not know. How could she find out?
However, after a careful investigation by Wei Tuan 'er, the men who had a close relationship with Shanghai Wan' er, apart from the scholars in Hongwen Library, was only Yang Fan!
In the Tang dynasty, many princesses did not know how to control themselves and had many lovers in private. Under such circumstances, a young and beautiful woman like Shangguan Wan'er, who also had the means and opportunities to interact with men, naturally had many rumors about her, such as rumors of her having an affair with some gifted scholar or scholar.
Although the rumors outside were true, Princess Taiping, who was involved, knew that they were all nonsense. Only this Yang Fan, she had never heard Wan 'er talk about him. How could they be so close?
At that time, Princess Taiping was already secretly suspicious, but she still did not believe that a talented woman who could weigh the world would really like a martial artist. At this time, when she heard that Shanghai Wan 'er had volunteered, Princess Taiping unconsciously thought of the poem "The Resentment of the Colored Palace" and the two words "Western Regions" that were erased by Shanghai Wan' er.
The shadow of suspicion crept into her heart, "Could it be that … Wan 'er really likes him? Is there an affair between them?"
Jealousy was like a poisonous snake, quietly coiling around Li Lingyue's heart, "Today, I want to see if there really is an affair between you two! If it really is a pair of adulterous men and women, I will not let you two be happy! "Princess Taiping slowly clenched her fists, her nails piercing into her palms!
Wan 'er led two little palace maids and two little eunuchs, walked briskly to the palace gate, and then suddenly stopped. She calmed herself down a little before walking out of the room.
With just one glance, she saw Yang Fan. With just one glance, there was no other person or thing in her eyes. Her eyes slowly became moist … Not seeing him for one day was like three years, how long had these days and nights been?
This enemy finally came back!
Seeing his smiling eyes, Wan'er felt her heart beat faster. Looking at his skinny face, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. This enemy, he risked his life to fight for me. How much did he suffer in this life and death struggle?
Wan 'er took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the excitement in her heart. Step by step, she walked towards them. When she was in front of them, she stood still and said, "Soldiers, you have worked hard. When the Saint heard that you all came back, he was very happy. Soon, he will summon General Wu Youyi to reward you according to your achievements. You all should go back and rest. On the day of the reward, maybe the Saint will personally receive you. "
Huang Xuchang and the others were overjoyed, and quickly bowed to thank her. Wan 'er glanced at Yang Fan alone, pretending to be calm, and said, "Bodyguard Yang, the Saint wants to see you, please come with me!" After that, she hurriedly turned around, afraid that if she stayed any longer, her face would show that something was wrong.
Huang Xuchang and the others knew that Yang Fan would definitely be promoted. Their eyes were full of eagerness as they looked at him. However, although they were envious, they couldn't be jealous. This credit was obtained by him risking his life. It was already extremely benevolent of him to share some of the credit with them. Yang Fan was the real first credit, and they couldn't take it away even if they wanted to.
Yang Fan followed half a step behind Wan 'er, and the two of them didn't look around. They both had a stomach full of things to say, but there was a pair of palace maids and a pair of eunuchs behind them, so they could only force themselves to be patient.
Yang Fan could still use the corner of his eyes to look at the other's beautiful figure. Wan 'er was very close to her lover, but she couldn't even see his figure. How could she be patient?
"Cough! Bodyguard Yang! "
Shanghai Wan 'er purposely paused her steps and walked shoulder to shoulder with Yang Fan. She casually waved her hand, and the two palace maids and the two eunuchs behind her understood and moved further away.
