The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

When Li Yuan was on duty at Dingding Gate, she encountered a dark shadow breaking into the city gate at night. Her heart tightened, and she immediately swung her sword to meet it. However, the dark shadow was agile and had strange moves, which made it difficult for her to deal with it for a while. After a fierce battle, the dark shadow was finally repelled. But Li Yuan also felt a little tired and injured.

After changing shifts, Li Yuan returned to her room. Just as she was about to take a break, she suddenly found a wounded man in the room. She was panicked and confused, not knowing who this man was and why he was here. She immediately picked up her sword and looked at the man warily and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The man slowly raised his head after hearing this. His face was handsome and resolute, and his eyes were shining with an unyielding light. He looked at Li Yuan's vigilant eyes and long sword and said, "I am Changze, a subordinate of Xuan Youyan. I came here on the orders of Master Xuan to investigate some important matters. Unexpectedly, I was attacked by criminals and seriously injured. Fortunately, I fled here at the risk of my life and saved my life."

As the night deepened, the moonlight was like water, sprinkling in the quiet corner of the Imperial Guards Camp. Li Yuan had just finished her shift and was a little tired physically and mentally. She was about to go back to her room to rest, but suddenly encountered a strange thing.

She pushed open the door and walked into the room, but was surprised to find another figure in the room. The man was lying on the bed, his clothes were torn and bloodstained, and he was obviously seriously injured after a fierce battle. Li Yuan's heart tightened and she immediately became alert. She drew her sword and pointed it at the man, asking sternly, "Who are you? Why are you in my room?"

Hearing this, the man slowly raised his head, a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then turned into awe. He struggled to get up, but he was powerless, so he could only reluctantly speak: "Your Highness, I am Changze, a subordinate of Master Xuan Youlian. I was ordered by Master Xuan to come here to investigate some important matters in Luoyang Palace. Unexpectedly, I was attacked by gangsters on the way and was seriously injured. Fortunately, I managed to escape here..."

Li Yuan was shocked when she heard this. She never expected that the injured man would actually call her "Princess." She was stunned for a moment, then asked sternly: "Why do you say I am Princess? What evidence do you have?"

Seeing this, Changze took out a letter and a jade ring from his bosom and handed them to Li Yuan tremblingly: "Your Highness, this is the letter and jade ring that Master Xuan asked me to give you. The letter mentioned the situation in Luoyang Palace and the agreement to meet you at the Yi Nian Inn in Lirenfang in three days. The jade ring belongs to your father, Emperor Li You, and can be used as a token of trust."

Li Yuan took the letter and the jade ring, her heart was in turmoil. She carefully examined the jade ring, and it was indeed the same as the one her father wore in her memory. She opened the letter again, and saw the hurried handwriting on it, describing the turmoil and unrest in the Luoyang Palace, as well as a mysterious agreement.

After reading the letter, Li Yuan was shocked. She was not sure if this was a conspiracy, nor did she know whether she should trust the injured man. She recalled the events of her past life and felt that this matter was too bizarre and needed to be treated with caution. She looked at Changze and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know if what is said in this letter is true? How did you get injured like this?"

Hearing this, Changze's eyes flashed with pain and anger: "Your Highness, I was originally a capable general under Lord Xuan. This time I was ordered to come here to investigate the matter in Luoyang Palace, but unfortunately I was attacked by criminals. They were numerous and skilled. I fought desperately, but was still seriously injured. Fortunately, I fled here at the risk of my life, so I was able to see Your Highness."

Hearing this, Li Yuan felt even more confused. She looked at Changze's painful expression and determined eyes, and an inexplicable trust surged in her heart. But she also knew that this matter was too bizarre to be easily believed. So, she said in a deep voice: "You stay here to recover for the time being. I will send someone to investigate this matter. After finding out the truth, we will make a decision."

When Changze heard this, a trace of gratitude and awe flashed in his eyes: "Thank you, Princess, for saving my life. I, Changze, am willing to serve you until death, even if it means sacrificing my life."

Li Yuan looked at Changze's determined eyes and resolute expression, and a warm current surged in her heart. She knew that this man was a loyal soldier who was worthy of her trust and reliance. So she nodded, turned around and left, ready to find someone to investigate the matter.

However, just as Li Yuan turned around, Changze suddenly died. He stared with his eyes wide open, as if he had endless regrets and unwillingness. Li Yuan felt grief and regret in her heart, because she knew that this man had risked his life to escape here to protect her. She looked at Changze's body and silently vowed to find out the truth and avenge him.

After Li Yuan returned to her room, she couldn't calm down for a long time. She looked at the letter and the jade ring in her hand, and her heart was full of doubts and confusion. She was not sure whether this was a conspiracy, and she didn't know whether she should believe the words of this mysterious man. She recalled the things in her previous life and felt that this matter was too bizarre and weird.
