Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 125 Overturning the Hand to Become King (38 episodes)
Under the peach tree, a few petals were blown down by the wind, leaving a light pink layer on the ground.

The woman wore a dark green dress, her long hair was tied back with a white jade hairpin, and her face was without makeup, except for a red agate pendant on her forehead, which made her skin appear even whiter and more like snow.

She sat on the stone bench, resting her chin on her hand, a few petals falling on her shoulder.

"Sister." A woman in a peach-pink dress came running over from not far away, fine beads of sweat on her forehead. "Sister, I heard that Jinxiufang in the capital has launched a lot of new clothing styles. Come with me to take a look."

These two people were clearly Mu Changrao and Mu Changxue.

……

The two hadn't walked far when a man approached. Seeing that no one was around, he frowned and looked impatient. Then, as if he remembered something, he quickly walked away.

In the bustling streets, with people coming and going, Mu Changrao leaned against the window of the most famous restaurant in the capital, looking down at the scene below.

Upon seeing this, Mu Changxue's eyes narrowed, and she quickly stepped forward. Seeing the person below, she gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, do you think this young master below is handsome, and that's why you're happy with him?"

"Don't make wild guesses. He should be a member of the royal family. If I'm not mistaken, he should be the fourth son." Mu Changrao shook her head, her expression unchanged, her tone indifferent.

Mu Changxue's expression stiffened, and she wondered if she was the reason for the future events to go awry. Xia Yuliu and her sister had fallen in love at first sight, but now, even before they had met, her sister was already wary of him, let alone falling in love at first sight.

She narrowed her eyes, then smiled and said, "This is for the best. I made a mistake before, but now I can make amends. My sister should always be with me." "I heard that this fourth prince comes from a poor background, so he's picked up bad habits and spends his days idly fighting cocks and chasing dogs."

Seeing the look of disgust on Mu Changrao's face, Mu Changxue finally smiled.

Despite several twists and turns, Xia Yuliu still couldn't find an opportunity to get close to Mu Changrao.

Later, as a second choice, he used his good looks to attract the daughter of another high-ranking official. Unfortunately, that official had more than one daughter and would not risk his fortune for a daughter who was infatuated with her husband.

Unable to achieve his goals, Xia Yuliu was depressed all day long, prematurely revealing the ugly deeds beneath his refined appearance. Not being valued, he vented his anger in the backyard.

Upon learning of this, Mu Changxue simply instructed someone to find a beautiful woman with syphilis in a brothel to seduce him. Having spent many years with him, she knew all too well what kind of woman he preferred. After the new emperor ascended the throne and the world was at peace, Mu Changrao resigned from her position, informed her father, and then traveled the world with a man.

Coincidentally, the man was Xia Yuyan, who bore a resemblance to Xia Yuliu.

The two met in a small town far from the capital. If Mu Changrao hadn't already met Xia Yuyan, she wouldn't have been sure that this was the former crown prince who had died of a serious illness.

Perhaps it was love that grew over time, or perhaps it was out of pity, but looking at the man beside her, Mu Changrao felt a sense of relief. She didn't know why, but she always felt that her life was much happier than others.

Xia Yuyan's health was not good, so Mu Changrao traveled with him to enjoy the scenery while seeking medical treatment. After twenty years of ups and downs, their child had grown up and was sent to the General's Mansion.

May we grow old together in peace and tranquility.

……

When Mu Changxue learned that Mu Changrao had left with her people, she wanted to stop her, but she found that her memories of the past were gradually fading. As time went by, she forgot everything.

A year later, she was married off to the top scholar of the imperial court as his principal wife.

During the wedding, Mu Changrao came back to see her once. When Mu Changxue saw the relaxed smile on her sister's face, she felt that she had forgotten something, but she couldn't remember it.

Ten years later, on a rainy day, Mu Changxue's memories suddenly returned, but looking at her husband and children beside her, she finally realized that there was nothing she could do.

Perhaps, remembering her is her punishment.

A lifetime is spent waking up to reality, and a lifetime is spent seeking but never obtaining.
