My sister is Luna

"Phew, I'm finally back. This is the first time I've realized how tiring shopping can be. My body isn't tired, but my mind is."

Back in the courtyard, as soon as he entered the room, Cain collapsed onto the bed, speaking weakly as if all his strength had been drained away.

"Yes, I accompanied His Majesty on a long shopping trip, and I was constantly on edge... no wonder I was tired." After lighting the candles, Shangguan Wan'er sat on the edge of the bed, and blushed slightly when she mentioned "on edge."

After all, Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er had been holding onto one of Cain's arms the whole time they were shopping. Wu Zetian was unaware of this, but Shangguan Wan'er and Cain were constantly in a state of emotional turmoil. Especially when their movements were large, the intense feeling made them feel even more ashamed as they were being lifted up and down. They had to go shopping and endure the feeling of close contact, which left them both feeling mentally exhausted.

When it was finally time to part, Wu Zetian gave Cain a big hug, ostensibly to "play the parting of a noble lady and noble gentleman in love," which made Cain and her hearts connect for a moment, and startled Shangguan Wan'er.

"Now I finally understand what it feels like to serve a tiger, especially a tigress," Cain muttered to himself.

"I heard everything you just said. You dared to speak ill of His Majesty. Be careful, or I'll report you." Shangguan Wan'er was displeased and strongly defended Wu Zetian.

"Ah, I was wrong, Wan'er!" Cain pretended to beg for forgiveness. If Wu Zetian knew, she would definitely use this as an excuse to do this or that to him.

"It's good that you know. Speaking ill of His Majesty is a great disrespect, and in serious cases, it can even lead to imprisonment! I'm just reminding you to be careful what you say." Shangguan Wan'er nodded in satisfaction upon seeing Cain's reaction, her expression serious.

"Her Majesty actually asked us to accompany her on her incognito visit today; there must be some special significance to it."

"Do you think it's because of my hard work that His Majesty has finally started to value me? Is it finally time for me to make a name for myself and start pursuing my dreams?!"

As if she had thought of a certain possibility, Shangguan Wan'er was overjoyed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Hmm... I guess so." Cain quietly turned his head away, saying something he didn't mean.

Cain couldn't bring himself to say, "Wu Zetian came to see me, and you were just a side trip, Wan'er." Not wanting to spoil her mood, he could only watch the candle flames flicker gently.

"If that's the case, then I can do some better things for Her Majesty the Empress!"

"The first stage is to slowly get started."

"The second stage is to enter the central government."

"The third stage is to become the prime minister, serving as Her Majesty the Empress's right-hand woman, another legendary woman who is just as capable as any man, and..." Shangguan Wan'er began to slowly describe the future she envisioned, becoming more and more excited as she spoke.

"What do you think of this, Cain?" Shangguan Wan'er asked Cain without turning her head, while pondering her future.

"..."

But all she received in response was silence.

"Kain?" Shangguan Wan'er turned her head to look, puzzled.

"Hoo hoo..." Cain had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep peacefully, his even breathing softly filling the air.

"You're asleep? Well, you must be tired. You still had to chat with me. It must have been hard for you." Shangguan Wan'er wasn't angry. She said gently, her voice as soft as a breeze.

"Sleeping so unguarded, it makes you seem like a baby, so cute." Shangguan Wan'er chuckled and poked his cheek, the touch making her heart flutter slightly.

Unbeknownst to her, Shangguan Wan'er was captivated by Cain's sleeping face and couldn't help but slowly approach him.

Just a centimeter away from her lips, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly woke up, her face flushed, and she looked around guiltily.

"Good night..." After saying that, Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly got up, drew the curtain, prepared her clothes, and went into the bathroom.

The rising mist enveloped her slender figure, creating a misty, ethereal scene that made one want to explore further.

Her long, black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, partially obscuring her beautiful body and creating a seductive allure with glimpses of her fair skin.

"What's wrong with how I feel?"

As Shangguan Wan'er took a shower, the cascading hot water calmed the strange emotions pounding in her heart. Her mind was filled with doubts, and her eyes revealed confusion.

"I'm going to appeal my innocence tomorrow, but I still have these mixed emotions. I can't understand it. We're just friends, so why do I care about him so much? We're just friends, so why am I so worried about him? We're just friends, so why do I want to see him so much..." Shangguan Wan'er kept asking herself these questions, her voice trembling slightly.

"And you still care so much about his opinion."

"Wan'er is still just a servant girl. It's already incredibly lucky that she can become friends with someone like Cain..."

As if struck by a thought, she looked down at her two rather well-proportioned, soft, white breasts, grabbed them with her hands, and even weighed them in her hands. Her face flushed, she said:

"Your Majesty's...that one seems bigger than mine...hmm...judging from Cain's obviously more comfortable expression on that side...men really do prefer bigger ones, right...when will I be that big...no, I should still be able to grow...yes, I definitely can..."

Outside the courtyard stands the towering clock tower.

"Boom-thump-"

The long, deep tolling of the ancient bells signaled the start of the curfew. The once bustling city of Chang'an seemed to fall silent in the blink of an eye, its lights extinguished, and the world plunged into complete darkness.

……

early morning.

In his studio, Di Renjie received a special appeal.

This was a complaint from over a decade ago that greatly interested him.

This is the first case I'm working on today!

"Interesting, someone is actually coming to appeal a case from over a decade ago?" As he spoke, Di Renjie opened the appeal document, his expression becoming focused.

"This is...?!" Di Renjie's pupils contracted sharply, but he still patiently continued to look.

"It actually concerns the Crown Prince's rebellion case, seeking justice for Shangguan Yi, the former tutor of the deposed Crown Prince. I've read about this case before, but I couldn't find any unexpected clues. Now it seems there's definitely something more to it." After reading the appeal, Di Renjie said, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.

"Yuanfang!" Di Renjie called out.

"Yes, sir. What are your orders?" Li Yuanfang pushed open the door and entered, carrying a huge throwing dart on his back.

"You've been keeping an eye on Ming Shiyin lately, haven't you? You haven't found a single clue about him."

"Reporting to you, sir, it wasn't hard work, but we really didn't find any clues," Li Yuanfang said, a hint of helplessness on his face.

“He acted so flawlessly that I couldn’t find a single clue, and the Chongming bird didn’t find anything suspicious either.”

“You don’t need to go now, because someone has already sent us a clue. Although more than ten years have passed, at least we still have a witness as a clue.”

"Are you finally going to reveal your hidden purpose, Ming Shiyin?" Di Renjie's gaze was sharp, as if he could pierce through all the fog.

"Let's go, summon Shangguan Wan'er, the victim." With that, Di Renjie took the lead and walked out of the room.

"Wait for me, Lord Di!" Li Yuanfang moved quickly and nimbly on his short legs, closely following behind Di Renjie.

……

"Don't worry, Wan'er, your grievances will definitely be cleared up." In the front hall of Dali Temple, Kaiyin comforted Shangguan Wan'er's nervous and excited feelings, and gently patted her shoulder.

"Yes, definitely." Shangguan Wan'er nodded, her hands clasped tightly together.

“After all, it’s Di Renjie who’s handling your appeal. He certainly won’t let go of any clue that could prove Ming Shiyin has ulterior motives,” Cain comforted him.
