The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Yun Yao sat in her simple courtyard, with the evidence she found in the history books of the palace about Liu Yan'er's misappropriation of money on the table in front of her. It was a few pages of paper with some obscure account transactions. Although it looked obscure, Yun Yao had sorted out the key information after careful study. She knew the weight of this evidence. As long as she showed it to the prince at the right time, Liu Yan'er would definitely receive the punishment she deserved.

However, Yun Yao also knew that this time must be chosen carefully. If it is revealed too early, Liu Yan'er might bite back and accuse her of false accusation; if it is too late, Liu Yan'er might come up with new conspiracies to deal with her. She carefully analyzed the situation in the palace. The prince has been busy with government affairs recently and rarely shows up in the palace. But Yun Yao knew that every time the prince finished dealing with government affairs, he would have a habit of taking a walk in the garden to relax. This garden is a public area of the palace, and many people can enter, including her, the unfavored princess.

Yun Yao decided to wait in the garden for the prince to appear. To ensure that everything went well, she began to make arrangements in advance. She first asked Xiao Cui to find out the approximate time when the prince last handled government affairs. Xiao Cui had a wide network of contacts in the palace. Although she was just a little maid, she could always get some useful information from other servants. Xiao Cui came back and told Yun Yao that the prince would probably finish handling an important matter in the afternoon three days later, and would most likely go to the garden afterwards.

After Yun Yao got the news, she began to plan her actions for the day. She knew that she couldn't act too deliberately, after all, she had always been ignored in this palace. If she suddenly appeared in the garden and happened to meet the prince, it would easily arouse other people's suspicion. So, she began to wander on the path near the garden for a while every day for three days, pretending to be taking a walk to relax. She also deliberately let some servants see her figure, so that when she appeared in the garden three days later, it would not seem abrupt.

During these three days, Yun Yao did not relax her training because of the upcoming counterattack plan. She still got up early every day and absorbed spiritual energy according to the exercises in the ancient books. She found that as she continued to practice, her sensitivity to spiritual energy became more acute, and her body's capacity for spiritual energy was gradually increasing. This made her very happy, and she knew that her strength was steadily improving. But she did not forget the potential threat of Liu Yan'er. Every time she practiced, she would be particularly alert to the movements around her.

At the same time, Yun Yao was also observing Liu Yan'er's every move. She found that Liu Yan'er seemed to be a little frustrated because the plan to poison her food failed last time. Liu Yan'er's behavior in the palace became more arrogant and domineering, and she beat and scolded the servants more frequently. Yun Yao sneered in her heart, she knew that the more Liu Yan'er acted like this, the easier it would be to reveal flaws. She saw that Liu Yan'er went to the garden to appreciate the flowers every day, which made her more certain that her plan to expose Liu Yan'er in the garden was correct.

Finally, it was the third day. Yun Yao got up early and dressed up carefully. She did not do this to attract the prince's attention, but she did not want to look too embarrassed. She wore a simple white dress, her hair was simply tied up, and she only inserted an ordinary jade hairpin. She looked at herself in the mirror, and her heart was full of determination. She knew that today would be an important day to change her status in the palace.

It was a sunny afternoon. Yun Yao walked slowly towards the garden as planned. She held a small sachet in her hand, which contained the evidence. She walked into the garden and saw the flowers in full bloom and the fragrance of flowers. She took a deep breath and sat down in a secluded corner. This corner had a view of the main passage of the garden and was not easy to be discovered.

She waited quietly, and time passed by. She was a little nervous, but she kept telling herself to stay calm. Suddenly, she heard footsteps. She looked up and saw the prince walking towards the garden. The prince was wearing a dark brocade robe today, and his face was a little tired, but still majestic. Yun Yao's heart tightened, and she knew that the critical moment had come.

Just as she was about to stand up and walk towards the prince, she suddenly saw Liu Yan'er also walking towards the prince. Liu Yan'er was wearing a gorgeous pink dress with a gentle smile on her face. Yun Yao secretly said in her heart that it was not good. She didn't expect Liu Yan'er to appear at this time. She held the sachet tightly in her hand, thinking about what to do.

Liu Yan'er walked to the prince and said in a soft voice: "Prince, you have worked hard in handling government affairs today. Yan'er came here specially to accompany you to appreciate the flowers." The prince glanced at Liu Yan'er and nodded slightly. Yun Yao saw this scene and felt a little anxious. She knew that if she let Liu Yan'er talk to the prince first, she might not have the opportunity to expose her.

At this moment, Yun Yao suddenly had an idea. She stood up and pretended to walk towards the direction of the prince and Liu Yan'er. As she walked, she pretended to be surprised and said, "Prince, Sister Yan'er, you are here too." When the prince and Liu Yan'er heard the voice, they turned their heads to look at Yun Yao. A trace of doubt flashed in the prince's eyes. He seemed a little surprised that this unfavored princess would appear here.

When Liu Yan'er saw Yun Yao, a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She said in a tender voice, "Sister Yun Yao, why are you interested in coming to the garden today?" Yun Yao smiled and said, "The flowers in this garden are so beautiful, how can I not come to appreciate them? And I accidentally found some interesting things in the small courtyard recently, and I think I should let the prince and sister Yan'er see them too." As she said that, she took out the sachet.

When Liu Yan'er saw the sachet in Yun Yao's hand, she suddenly felt uneasy. She frowned and said, "Sister Yun Yao, what's in this sachet?" Yun Yao glanced at Liu Yan'er, then said to the prince, "Your Majesty, this sachet contains some important things about the palace. When I was tidying up the courtyard, I found some old books with some account transactions on them. I thought they were a bit strange, so I studied them carefully. It turned out that Sister Yan'er seemed to have misappropriated the money of the palace."

When the prince heard Yun Yao's words, his face suddenly became serious. He looked at Liu Yan'er and said, "Yan'er, is this true?" Liu Yan'er's face turned pale, and she hurriedly said, "Prince, this is Sister Yun Yao framing me, how could I do such a thing?" Yun Yao said calmly, "Sister Yan'er, I didn't frame you. The account above is recorded clearly. If you don't believe it, you can ask the accountant of the palace to check it."

The prince frowned, looked at the sachet in Yun Yao's hand, and said, "Show it to me." Yun Yao walked forward and handed the sachet to the prince. The prince opened the sachet, took out the paper inside, and read it carefully. As his eyes moved on the paper, his face became more and more gloomy.

Seeing the prince's expression, Liu Yan'er became more and more flustered. She knew that if the prince found the evidence to be true, she would face severe punishment. She fell to her knees and cried, "Prince, I was wronged. Sister Yunyao must have forged the evidence to frame me."

Yun Yao sneered and said, "Sister Yan'er, how could I be so capable of forging evidence? These accounts were found in the old books in the palace. If you say I forged them, doesn't that mean the books in the palace are also fake?" The prince raised his head, looked at Liu Yan'er, and said coldly, "Yan'er, what else do you have to say?"

Liu Yan'er knew that she could no longer argue, so she cried and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, I was just confused for a moment, please forgive me this time." The prince looked at Liu Yan'er, feeling somewhat disappointed. He had originally been somewhat fond of Liu Yan'er, but he had never expected that she would do such a thing. He said, "Yan'er, you privately embezzled the money of the palace, which is an unforgivable crime. I cannot forgive you so easily."

Liu Yan'er collapsed to the ground in despair when she heard the prince's words. Yun Yao looked at this scene without much joy in her heart. She knew that the struggle in this palace was far from over. She just improved her position in the palace through this incident.

After the prince dealt with Liu Yan'er's affairs, he looked at Yun Yao. He found that this princess, who was usually ignored by him, seemed to have extraordinary wisdom and courage. He said, "Yun Yao, you did a good job today. I ignored you a little in the past, but I won't do that in the future." Yun Yao bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yun Yao knew that she had succeeded in this step. But she also understood that her strength was far from enough. In this world of cultivation full of dangers and challenges, she needed to constantly improve her strength in order to truly protect herself and achieve her own counterattack. With a firm belief, she turned around and left the garden and returned to her own courtyard to continue practicing.
