into the night.

But Zheng couldn't rest for a long time.

She asked again worriedly: "She... that nobleman, did she really not ask you?"

Wan'er looked helplessly at Zheng's worried face.

The lamps and candles are limited, and they have been extinguished long ago, so it is easy to save some use.

The bleak moonlight slipped in through the broken window lattice and splashed on Zheng Shi's face, making that face paler and paler.

"I really didn't ask any questions." Wan'er said.

"Aniang, don't worry... that nobleman didn't make things difficult for the child." Wan'er comforted again.

Zheng's tightly clenched brows did not relax a bit because of this.

"Since she can find her here, how can she be all right?" Zheng muttered.

Obviously, the "she" in Zheng's mouth and the "she" in Wan'er's mind are not the same person.

Wan'er lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, then she realized that the "she" that Zheng was talking about was most likely the one who killed Shangguan's family, the aloof Queen of the Tang Dynasty.

So, it was the future empress who sent her daughter, Princess Taiping, to come here specially to see how she, the only orphan of the Shangguan family, is doing?

Wan'er shook her head silently in her heart.

She did not agree with her guess and Zheng's worry.

The future empress, in her eyes, probably only sees these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

What is the ant-like Shangguan Wan'er in her eyes after a mere criminal?

Even if Shangguan Wan'er's grandfather, Shangguanyi, was killed, it was not because the future empress had personal grievances with him, but because Shangguanyi became a stumbling block on her way to success.

She just kicked a stumbling block.

In her eyes, the country and power are probably the only things she cares about, right?

If she was really just that modest, she wouldn't have had the amazing act of daring to keep Shangguan Wan'er by her side and entrust her with a heavy responsibility.

From Wan'er's point of view, Princess Taiping didn't so much follow her mother's order to check on herself, but wandered carelessly into Yeting, a place she shouldn't have come.

Therefore, those inner eunuchs who followed were nervous about Ross.

However, after all, Wan'er has a golden finger of insight into history, but Zheng's does not have this ability.

At this moment, she is purely a loving mother who cares about her daughter's safety.

Wan'er understands.

Because of her understanding, she was patient and kept comforting Mrs. Zheng, don't worry.

Wan'er's hand tightened suddenly.

Zheng Shi didn't know where to think again, and suddenly clenched her little hand.

"Mother?" Wan'er looked at her.

"Good boy, what did she tell you? What was it like at that time? Tell Auntie again in detail!" Zheng said urgently.

Wan'er was speechless.

Again, that's the third time she repeated it.

However, seeing the frightened look on Zheng's face, Wan'er really couldn't bear it.

Then he described in detail how Princess Taiping broke in suddenly during the day, what was the situation at that time, who was present, how he reacted, and how he answered.

In fact, at the age of less than eight years old, she was able to explain a matter so articulately and clearly, including the demeanor and expression of everyone present at that time, which was already considered miraculous.

Zheng seems to have gotten used to her daughter's sensitivity and precociousness.

After listening to Wan'er's narration, the sadness on her face did not fade away.

"That nobleman, did you really not ask your surname?" Zheng asked nervously.

Wan'er just wanted to stare at the sky speechlessly.

Zheng's type should be called neurotic, right?

"Aniang, don't worry, there really isn't one!" Wan'er assured again and again.

"Daughter knows how to measure." She said again.

Mrs. Zheng took a deep look at her, with love in her eyes: "My Wan'er has always been so smart..."

Then he sighed: "It's a pity that my Wan'er is so smart and so good-looking, she has to spend her whole life in this court..."

Where would I spend my whole life here?

When I was 14, I would naturally be attracted by that person.

Wan'er thought.

However, it's good to think about it in your heart.

She would never tell the second person.

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng became calmer, she didn't know what she was thinking, Wan'er was afraid that she would think wildly again, so she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Mother, who is that noble person today?"

Zheng frowned again upon hearing this.

She hesitated for a while, but finally felt that it was necessary to tell her daughter, at least let her learn to be more careful in the future.

"That's Your Majesty and... and Empress Wu's eldest daughter, Princess Taiping." When mentioning Empress Wu, Zheng's heart still couldn't be calm.

What!Long... female?

Wan'er's face changed suddenly.

wrong!wrong!

How could Princess Taiping be the eldest daughter of Empress Wu?

Her eldest daughter is obviously Princess Anding, with the posthumous title of "Si".

The poor little princess died when she was still in her infancy.

Empress Wu claimed that it was the Queen Wang who killed the little princess because of jealousy. Because of this, Queen Wang was also suspected by Gaozong, and she suffered a crushing defeat.

The death of the little princess was the beginning of the defeat of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu to Queen Wu.

According to historical records, the little princess was actually strangled to death by Empress Wu, and then blamed on Empress Wang.

And there are not a few historians who say this.

Wan'er studied the history of the early Tang Dynasty intensively in her last life, and she will never remember such an important passage.

"Empress Wu's... eldest daughter?" Wan'er stared at Zheng.

Aunt, do you remember correctly?

Princess Taiping, is she really the eldest daughter of Empress Wu?

How can this be?

"Of course it's that woman's daughter, otherwise, do you think that as long as she is His Majesty's daughter, she can do whatever she wants?" Zheng obviously didn't understand Wan'er's question.

When Zheng said this, it meant that there was no problem with the word "eldest daughter".

Of course Wan'er also knows that "His Majesty's daughter" should not act recklessly, and even live a cautious life, for fear that she will lose her life if she makes a wrong step.

Isn't that the case with the two daughters left by Concubine Xiao Shu?

But the point is not this!

How could Princess Taiping be the eldest daughter of Empress Wu?

Could it be that the history she learned before traveling was wrong?

Wan'er immediately denied her own idea.

This is not the distant history of ancient human beings, this is the early Tang Dynasty, and there is sufficient reliable history to verify any major event that happened at that time, as long as they are recorded in the history books.

If Zheng's memory is not wrong, if history is not wrong, then there is only one possibility——

What she traveled here was not the Chu Tang she was familiar with.

Wan'er's little face was pale.

The conclusion is appalling.

Those historical facts that originally existed as her golden fingers were completely useless to her.

If this early Tang Dynasty is just one of countless parallel time and space, then anything that has happened or never happened in history can happen.

However, those people who are destined to live or die, or to flourish or lose their reputation in history, are very likely to change their original life trajectory, and fly away in an unpredictable direction.

Among them, Shangguan Wan'er herself was included.

Then the most realistic question was placed in front of Wan'er——

If she dies in this time and space, will she return to the original time and space?

The answer to this question is a resounding no.

The ghost knows which parallel world her soul will drift into in the past, present, or future. That is the real despair.

As a former intellectual, Wan'er did not feel the ecstasy of confirming the existence of parallel time and space at all.

Fate is like duckweed, unpredictable, even after death, you don't know where your soul will return...

Under such circumstances, who still has the heart to cheer for the great scientific discovery?

Wan'er suddenly realized that the principles, positive energy, and values ​​of the main theme she had learned in the past were all worthless at the moment.

Only living, how to live, is the most real truth!

Shakespeare said, to be or not to be, this is a question worth considering.Should we silently endure the poisonous arrows of fate's tyranny, or stand up against the endless suffering in the world and wipe them away through struggle?Which of these two acts is more noble?

Wan'er just wanted to borrow Shakespeare's words to answer: dead, asleep, everything is over.

So, at the end of the day, how is she going to live?

Since she is Shangguan Wan'er, maybe she is destined to be tied to the only female emperor in history, right?

If that woman can become the emperor.

"Aniang, tell the child about His Majesty and... Empress Wu!" Wan'er coquettishly hugged Zheng's arm and said.

The previous thoughts flashed through her mind like lightning, causing her complexion to change suddenly, but on the surface she didn't really lose her sense of proportion.

After all, the years she lived together in her two lifetimes may not necessarily be younger than Zheng's current age.

Isn't it common for adults to have one set of thoughts in their minds and another set of faces on their faces?

Zheng has no way of knowing that her daughter has changed the core.

How could she have imagined that a little girl under eight years old could have so many thoughts?

Zheng only thought that Wan'er was scared, so that her little face turned pale with fright.

Seeing her daughter hugged her arm, Mrs. Zheng quickly hugged her in her arms.

"My son, what do you do if you know those things? Don't worry too much." Zheng sighed.

She was worried that her daughter was curious about the current emperor and empress. If she felt resentful in the future and wanted to avenge the family, wouldn't that be her own death?

"Aniang, Wan'er is no longer a child, it's time to share the worries for Aniang." Wan'er said.

She did have plans to listen to Zheng Shi, but she also felt pity for Zheng Shi, thinking that if she could use her own power to let Zheng Shi live in peace for the rest of her life, it would be considered a kindness to Zheng Shi. repaid.

"Alas! Auntie's Wan'er has grown up!" Zheng sighed.

She still hugged Wan'er, hesitated again and again, and finally said: "I want Wan'er to know more, so that I will suffer less in the future, and I am afraid that if Wan'er knows too much, it will cause trouble for nothing..."

Hearing her contradictory tone, Wan'er was filled with love for her daughter, and felt sore in her heart.

"Aniang, you have taught Wan'er to read and understand for so many years, Wan'er will not cause trouble for nothing!" Wan'er vowed.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng lowered her head and stared at her beautiful and graceful face under the moonlight, both happy and sad: "Then Auntie will tell you everything she knows."

"But Wan'er, you have to promise A Niang..." Mrs. Zheng suddenly changed the subject, "...you have to promise A Niang that you will never think of revenge for the rest of your life."

Wan'er stared at Zheng Shi quietly, and nodded deeply.

She knew that Zheng said this not because she didn't hate, but because she was afraid that there was a trace of revenge for the family in her heart, so that she could hit a stone with an egg and be lost forever.

What Wan'er is actually more curious about at this time is, what is that woman who makes many people hate and fear, and makes many people willingly follow her?
