The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

Chang'an in March is full of spring, but also full of wind and rain. Flowers flying all over the sky are like the prelude to war, foreshadowing the fall of a dynasty. In this turbulent time, Li Yuan, a princess who should have been unknown in the long river of history, is miraculously reborn back to her twelve years old.

At that time, Chang'an had been trampled by the iron hoofs of peasant rebels, and the glory of the imperial city was eclipsed in the flames of war. Her father, Li You, the once high and mighty emperor, could only flee to Shu with the Li Tang clan in a hurry to seek a glimmer of hope. Li Yuan and her brother Li Wenzhi were also in the fleeing team, accompanied by their loyal maid Dong.

Dong, a woman in her forties but still charming, was once an ordinary maid in the palace, but she won their deep trust because of her careful care for Li Yuan and her son. On the way to escape, Dong became their protector, using her wisdom and courage to rescue them from danger time and time again.

However, the escape was full of hardships and dangers. One day, when their team reached a desolate valley, they were suddenly discovered by the rebels. For a moment, the sound of horse hooves and shouts intertwined, tearing the peaceful valley into pieces.

"Hurry! Change into these old clothes!" Dong hurriedly took out a few worn-out clothes from the package and handed them to Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi, "Take off your bright yellow robes. Don't let the rebels discover your identities!"

Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi hurriedly did as they were told, knowing that once their identities were exposed, the consequences would be disastrous. However, just as they were changing clothes, a discordant voice suddenly rang out.

"Why do we have to wear these tattered clothes? I, Ling'er, am a maid in the palace. How can I bear such humiliation?" Ling'er, a young and beautiful maid, was dissatisfied with Dong's discipline and was resentful at this moment, and she openly disobeyed orders.

"Ling'er, shut up!" Dong shouted, "What time is it now? Are you still concerned about your identity? If we are captured by the rebels, you and I will both die without a burial place!"

However, Ling'er was not intimidated by Dong's majesty. She sneered and said, "Humph, you are just a maid, what right do you have to give orders here? I, Ling'er, am not afraid of you!"

Dong was so angry that she trembled all over when she heard this, but she knew that this was not the time to argue with Ling'er. She suppressed her anger and said to Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi, "Fifth Princess, Your Highness Wenzhi, you should follow me quickly. You can't stay here for long!"

Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi nodded, and they followed closely behind Dong, through a dense forest, and came to a hidden path. However, as soon as they set foot on the path, they heard the shouts and horse hooves of the rebels behind them.

"Oh no, the rebels are catching up!" Dong's face changed. She hurriedly pulled Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi's hands and quickened her pace. However, their speed was still not as fast as the rebels' horse hooves. After a while, they heard the rebels shouting from behind: "Catch them! Don't let them run away!"

Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi were shaking with fear, knowing that if they were captured by the rebels, the consequences would be disastrous. Just then, they saw a convoy in front of them, with the four characters "Princess Ning'an" embroidered on the flag in the middle of the convoy.

"It's Princess Ning'an's motorcade!" Dong's eyes lit up. She hurriedly grabbed Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi's hands and ran towards the motorcade. "Quick! Let's flee with the motorcade!"

Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi nodded, and they followed closely behind Dong and rushed towards Princess Ning'an's motorcade. The guards in the motorcade saw this and immediately stopped them.

"Who are you? Why are you ramming our convoy?" a guard shouted sternly.

"We are refugees. Please take us in, Princess!" Dong said hastily. "The rebels are coming. If we are captured, we will die without a burial place!"

The guards hesitated for a moment after hearing this. However, at this moment, Princess Ning'an in the motorcade spoke up: "Let them get on the car. It doesn't matter if we bring a few more people."

The guards nodded and motioned for Dong and the others to get in the carriage. Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi looked at Princess Ning'an gratefully, then followed Dong into the carriage.

Princess Ning An sat on the cushion in the carriage. Her face was dignified and beautiful, and her brows revealed a heroic spirit. She glanced at Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi, and then asked, "What are your names? Why are you being hunted by the rebels?"

Li Yuan and Li Wenzhi looked at each other and said, "My name is Li Yuan, and this is my brother Li Wenzhi. We are members of the Li Tang clan. We fled here because Chang'an was captured by the rebels."

Princess Ning'an was surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that these two children were actually members of the Li Tang clan. She pondered for a while, then said, "In that case, you should follow me. I will protect your safety."
