Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

The emperor suffered from this kind of disease. The wonderful and exciting drama of forcing the emperor to abdicate that he patiently directed caused him to lose three sons, a grandson, and even his mother. Even if he was a man of steel, he could not bear such stimulation.

Even though the Fourth Prince and Empress Linghu were not the most important people to him, they were his son and the women who had been with him for more than twenty years. How could he have no feelings at all?

Extreme joy or extreme sorrow are the easiest to consume your energy.

But those had nothing to do with Wei Bingyan. She just heard about it from others. She never wanted to have any contact with the Imperial Palace again in her life, so it would be best if she didn't enter the palace again.

But what she could not have imagined was that Princess Mudan would ask someone to find her and meet her at Nan Temple at this time.

Wei Bingyan discussed with Li Yuyan, "What do you think Princess Mudan wants to talk to me about? She has been imprisoned in the temple, how can she let someone ask me to talk to her?"

"Who is here to convey this message?" Li Yuyan asked.

"It's a little nun..." Wei Bingyan thought of how Princess Mudan had used her in the past, and she was extremely reluctant to meet her.

Li Yuyan said: "Let the ore take you there, and see what she wants to say."

"Is her husband dead?" Wei Bingyan asked suddenly.

"I don't know either. All the people in the prison are poor death row prisoners. I didn't know before that Du Chuangshen was locked up by the court. I thought he was killed because of treason." Li Yuyan said softly.

If it weren't for Princess Peony, he really thought the same as everyone else in the martial arts world. A dark power in the martial arts world like Du Chuangshen was betrayed and tortured to death by the people around him.

No one knew that the imperial court had any involvement in the destruction of the Sun Moon Sect, and there was no trace of the imperial court at all.

Wei Bingyan knew nothing about the so-called martial arts world, let alone what the Sun Moon Sect had done. She was just wondering what Princess Mudan would tell her.

Li Yuyan didn't let her think too much and hugged her around the waist. "Okay, don't think too much. It's getting late. Let's go to sleep."

The young couple was in love and remained silent late into the night.

……

It took Wei Bingyan several days to decide to go to Nan Temple to meet Princess Mudan. She was actually wondering what Princess Mudan would say to her.

Nan Temple is located in Nanshan not far from the capital. The environment is very quiet. Most of the people who come here on weekdays are the wives of the bureaucrats in power in the capital. The temple fires, which exude a sacred atmosphere, are still lively.

Wei Bingyan was led from the front mountain by a little nun to Princess Mudan's quiet room.

In front of her was a nun wearing a dark blue robe and with a straight hair, who was practicing with a single-minded focus. If she hadn't looked up lazily, Wei Bingyan would have found it hard to believe that the person next to her was Princess Mudan.

It wasn't that she had aged a lot. Princess Mudan, wearing a simple linen dress, was still bright, noble and elegant. It was just...

The Peony Princess that Wei Bingyan had seen always loved wearing clothes embroidered with large egg-yellow peony flowers. She looked gorgeous, noble and elegant, as if she was born to be so dazzling.

"I thought you didn't want to come and see me." Princess Mudan looked at Wei Bingyan with a faint smile. Her voice was still low and hoarse, with a different kind of charm.

The little nun who brought Wei Bingyan here stepped back, and the two of them were the only ones in the quiet room.

Wei Bingyan knelt down on the straw mat in front of her, "My princess, are you used to being here?"

"It seems that you don't want to call me sir anymore." Princess Mudan said with a smile.

"Sir." Wei Bingyan called out again.

Peony smiled slightly, "I have many, many students, but you are the only one I can remember."

Wei Bingyan looked at her and said, "The master looked at me differently that day. Actually, it was because I was a daughter of the Wei family and because my mother had frequent contacts with Princess Ping'an. It was not because of who I am."

"Is that so?" Princess Mudan said vaguely, "Do you resent me?"

"No." Wei Bingyan told the truth. Princess Mudan instigated the Third Prince and others to rebel in order to avenge her hatred, but being slandered and misunderstood by the one she loved was also an unspeakable pain.

"Empress Linghu and her son are so pitiful." Princess Mudan suddenly said, "Have you heard of the Sixth Prince's mother?"

Wei Bingyan shook her head.

"The Sixth Prince's mother is called Zhensheng. She used to be a maidservant beside the Emperor. She was a kind-hearted person. Empress Li never liked her. She envied and was jealous of her closeness to the Emperor. She had someone secretly feed her poison. If I hadn't noticed it, Zhensheng would have died long ago.

The emperor was so angry that he wanted to depose the empress, and Empress Li hated Zhen Sheng even more, so after Zhen gave birth to the sixth prince, Empress Li killed her mercilessly. The emperor had no choice but to lose his beloved. At that time, he was seriously ill. I held the sixth prince in front of him and told him that if he continued to do this, even Zhen Sheng’s son would not be saved..."

"How could you, a monarch who can love so deeply, do such a cold-blooded thing?" Princess Mudan smiled and said, "Empress Li is dead, and so is Little Empress Li. The Li family will never be able to turn things around, and even the Linghu family will be gone..."

Why are you talking about something like this? Wei Bingyan was shocked to hear this. She didn't want to know so much.

"...I thought he was heartbroken for a sister like me, so he turned a blind eye and accepted me following Brother Du's departure.

He even used me, the sister of someone he loved and who had saved him, to make me despised by the people and hated by my husband. Every day when I think about how these people died in front of me, I hate him to the core. "

"Bingyan, the emperor is moody. Such a son of heaven is not worthy of the strong support of the Li and Wei families."

All this was said just to sow discord between the Wei and Li families and the emperor as his subject.

Wei Bingyan looked at her calmly, "Sir, I don't understand what's going on in the current government."

"I'm not trying to instigate rebellion between your two families," Princess Mudan said, "I just want to remind you before I leave, as compensation for having used you in the past."

"Thank you for your guidance, sir." Wei Bingyan said.

Princess Mudan smiled softly, "That's all I have to say. You can go back now."

Wei Bingyan never expected that Princess Mudan would say such words when she came to see her.

Wei Bingyan didn't want to find out whether this was intentional to leave some prejudice between the two families and the emperor. From ancient times to the present, how many people who could sit on the throne were simple characters? She believed that the old man and Li Yuyan understood this better than she did.

She left Nan Temple and decided to completely forget what she heard today.
