Time travel, quick transmigration

Perhaps feeling sorry for Yang Yuhuan, Shi Yan took two steps forward, leaned close to Li Heng, and whispered softly in his ear, like a lover's whisper.

"Of course I blame you, and I will never forgive you. Don't think that you can live a peaceful life after giving up on me. I will be watching over you, Li Heng, for the rest of my life. I want to see how well the person who sacrificed his wife is doing."

"From this day forward, we shall be strangers. I, Yang Yuhuan, shall have no further connection with Li Heng. History will record this, and future generations will know the deeds of you and your father."

After speaking, Shi Yan straightened up and distanced herself from Li Heng. She didn't look at the man with the extremely gloomy expression again, turned around, and gracefully left.

Back in her bedroom, Shi Yan leaned against a couch, and Xiao Die thoughtfully brought her two plates of fruit and snacks, as well as a plate of grapes to enjoy.

"Xiaodie, in a few days I will be going to a Taoist temple to cultivate myself in accordance with the imperial decree. You will stay in the palace. After all, a Taoist temple is a place of quiet cultivation, and I don't know what the future holds for me."

"You'd better not come with me to that Taoist temple to live a lonely life."

Shi Yan had just given Li Heng a long and eloquent speech in the front hall, but now she seemed completely unconcerned, even eating grapes and chatting with Xiao Die with a rather leisurely air.

Xiao Die had always held the idea of ​​being loyal to Yang Yuhuan for life. Upon hearing Shi Yan's words, she immediately knelt on the ground and looked at Shi Yan earnestly.

"Does Your Highness no longer want me? If I have done something wrong, I will correct it."

"This servant only recognizes you as her master. Wherever you go, this servant will naturally follow and serve you. Please don't leave this servant behind..."

Seeing Xiaodie's resolute expression, and her almost-crying look, Shi Yan felt a mix of emotions. She was quite moved, but also found it difficult to say anything forceful.

"Who told you to kneel? Get up now."

"Stop crying. What's the big deal? People who don't know the situation will think you've been bullied by someone."

"Silly girl, a girl's tears are precious. No matter what happens in the future, you must not shed tears. Even if you do shed tears, it must be because you are happy and joyful. You must cry tears of joy. Do you understand?"

Xiaodie nodded.

"This slave will remember it."

As she spoke, she sniffed and quickly stood up, lowering her head and refusing to look at Shi Yan, clearly feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"No one has ever dared to bully me while I'm with the Princess. I feel at ease serving you. I don't have any other thoughts for the time being..."

Shi Yan had witnessed the loyalty of the ancients, and she respected it deeply, feeling she couldn't ignore such rare sincerity. She would keep Xiao Die by her side, and as for Yue Ling, she would see.

That night, Shi Yan lay on the soft bed, alone in the large bedroom. She could finally sleep soundly and peacefully. She knew all along that Li Heng would be too ashamed to face her again, and would never have the courage to share a room with her.

She couldn't have asked for this more than she could have imagined.

"Xiao Ba, you're never active or show up all day, what are you busy with?"

0804 had just woken up from a sweet dream after a full sleep. Hearing Shi Yan call it, it immediately snapped out of its reverie and sprang out of her mind with a whoosh.

"I haven't been busy with anything. Since Yan Yan, you can handle what's happening outside all by yourself, and everything is going smoothly, I'll take this opportunity to rest more. I wouldn't have had this much free time before."

Shi Yan thought to herself that 0884 was actually slacking off, and even going so far as to talk about it so casually. She really admired 0804's audacity.

Seeing how relaxed and cheerful the little dumpling was, I decided to give it a hard time.

"Xiao Ba, is there a suitable place for me to cultivate myself in Chang'an? Since the emperor has ordered me to become a Taoist priest, I will find a suitable place for myself myself."

0804 immediately perked up upon hearing something was wrong, and in a flash, it flew to the top of Shi Yan's head.

"Yan Yan, you can't have any other crooked ideas. I said you have to follow the established path. The emperor also said in the imperial edict that you are to enter the Taoist temple in the palace to cultivate. You can only go to Tai Zhen Palace in the palace. How can you find another place on your own?"

"No, no."

Seeing 0804's hurried and flustered appearance, Shi Yan ignored it and simply stretched out her arms lazily and yawned slightly.

“What freedom would I have left if I went to the Taoist temple in the palace to cultivate? Besides, entering the palace would be tantamount to walking into a trap, only making things easier for that tyrannical ruler. I will not do as he wishes.”

"He ordered his daughter-in-law to become a nun without cause. Why should I obey his wishes? I will become a nun according to the imperial decree. Am I obliged to go to the place he arranged?"

"Please point me to a place for cultivation as soon as possible. I will set off from the palace to a Taoist temple to cultivate soon. It will be more convenient for me to act outside. I also need to plan for a successful escape in the future."

"If anyone makes me uncomfortable, I will absolutely not let them have their way."

"If he's so capable, he can kill me. But I doubt he'd be willing to let Yang Yuhuan die like that right now. What you can't have is always the best, isn't it?"

“Tell me, since Li Longji won’t kill me, why should I obey his orders to go to the Taoist temple he designated in the palace to cultivate? The outcome won’t change anyway. He’ll just be angry at most for not going to the palace as he wishes, but he won’t really punish me. So why can’t I make myself feel better?”

After pondering Shi Yan's words several times, 0804 couldn't find a compelling reason to refute them, so he reluctantly agreed to find a good place for Shi Yan.

"Don't be so downcast. Xiao Ba, don't worry, we're partners, and I promise to make this Tang Dynasty journey a success with you."

"As long as we stick to the general direction, we don't need to worry too much about the details. Making a slight change won't hurt us."

As Shi Yan spoke, she reached out and beckoned to 0804, who understood and flew to her side. Seeing the little dumpling's adorable appearance, Shi Yan couldn't resist ruffling its fluffy head a couple of times and smiled sweetly.

Looking at the beautiful woman's bright smiling face, 0804 nodded in a daze.

"Yan Yan is right. As long as the general direction remains the same, there won't be any problems. Okay, let's do it your way."

Seeing 0804's obedient and trusting expression, Shi Yan's heart softened.

Ultimately, she will definitely be summoned to the palace by Li Longji to accompany him. Before that, she should stay away from the father and son to have some peace and quiet. Before he gets what he wants, Li Longji will definitely not do anything to Yang Yuhuan. Moreover, even if Li Longji comes looking for her, she will not be afraid.

Shi Yan had a premonition that this time, leaving the Prince's Palace to cultivate elsewhere might truly lead to a turning point that could change Yang Yuhuan's fate.
