Chapter 575 Gentle and Elegant "Top Scholar" vs. Beautiful and Noble "Princess"

After the banquet, Liu Yao got on the carriage and returned to the temporarily rented yard.

As soon as I opened the door, a beautiful lady in a green dress came to greet me.

"cousin!"

When Liu Yao heard this name, he was in a trance for a moment, and recalled the plot of this world in his mind.

This story was somewhat new to her.

The identity she accepted was that of a top scholar disguised as a man.

And the male protagonist of the world is actually a princess dressed as a woman.

This was a fictional dynasty. Yuan was the surname of the country and Jin was the name of the country. The dynasty had a history of several hundred years.

After the founding of the country, several emperors were diligent kings who worked hard to govern the country, making it more and more prosperous and gradually gaining a firm foothold in this land.

Until recent decades, Jin State had become one of the most powerful countries, and no country dared to look down on them.

This is all thanks to the diligent efforts of more than ten consecutive monarchs.

Even the previous king, although mediocre in ability, knew how to defend it and worked diligently.

Not making mistakes is the best way to govern a country.

Unfortunately, in this generation, there emerged such a foolish and incompetent emperor.

He was fine at first.

The empress was the daughter of a general specially selected by the late emperor. She was loyal and patriotic, and assisted the emperor with all her heart.

Although the emperor could not make any great contributions, he at least had one advantage - he was obedient.

The Queen’s advice was heard;

Listen to the advice of the courtiers;

Listen to the advice of your subjects.

In the past few years, the country has been stable and prosperous.

It was not until the death of the general that the situation in the former dynasty and the harem suddenly changed.

The emperor began to hold beauty pageants frequently and took a fancy to the beautiful daughter of a minor official, doting on her every night.

In the end, not only was she promoted to a noble concubine, but it also influenced the previous dynasty.

The imperial concubine's family members were constantly promoted to small positions and suddenly gained power. They became arrogant, lost their sense of proportion, and did many evil things.

Naturally, many ministers came to the court to impeach, and the queen also came to advise the emperor.

But this is no longer the emperor of the past.

He completely ignored the impact and ordered punishment for anyone who was dissatisfied with the imperial concubine and her family.

Many of the ministers who were once valued in the court were demoted, and the queen's status also plummeted.

She was in the harem, with only the title of queen, but the actual power was in the hands of the imperial concubine.

Not to mention advising the emperor, even whether he could save his own life was a problem.

This favoritism lasted for a long time, and the emperor gradually became the only one who had the final say in the court.

Except for some powerful old ministers, no one dared to object to his words.

Only then did everyone realize that the current emperor's personality was actually autocratic, strong, and somewhat tyrannical.

It was suppressed in the past, but now that there is nothing to worry about, all of it is expressed.

The male protagonist Yuan Jing was born to the queen and should have been the legitimate eldest son.

But at that time, the imperial concubine was in favor, and the emperor held all the power in his hands, and his every word and action was based on his own will.

When he loved the imperial concubine, he put her first in everything, and even the queen had to step back from the limelight.

Countless times before, the imperial concubine had used crude means to plot against the queen, and even though the evidence was right before her eyes, the emperor would not cover up.

Even if it is a punishment, the person punished will only be the framed queen.

She was confined to her house, forced to copy books and meditate, had her monthly salary reduced, had fewer servants to serve her... with one thing after another pressing down on her, the queen's health deteriorated day by day.

After I got pregnant, my health got worse day by day.

She knew in her heart that she would not live to see the day when her child grew up.

Since she couldn't be there to protect her child at all times, what she could do now was to reduce the threat posed by her child in the eyes of the imperial concubine.

Regardless of whether the child is a boy or a girl, "ta" can only be a princess without inheritance rights.

Therefore, on the day of delivery, the queen mobilized her many years of connections in the palace and forcibly reported Yuan Jing as a princess.

Then, he also spread the news that he was seriously ill and would not live long.

Under the emperor's autocracy, the court officials would not submit memorials to the emperor to advise the empress on her difficult situation, but they would definitely not watch the imperial concubine openly murder the royal heirs.

What's more, the queen of a country was killed by a concubine and her life was coming to an end. How could they have the nerve to watch the princess fall into her hands?

With countless eyes watching, the imperial concubine's every move was extremely restricted.

Originally, court officials tended to bully the weak and fear the strong. In the past, they did not dare to say that the emperor was incompetent, but they still said a lot of words to curse the imperial concubine for causing trouble.

The imperial concubine had been scolded for a long time, and she knew that if she took action against Yuan Jing, she would be scolded even more.

Even with her current status, these would not threaten her position.

But there are always people who flatter her only support, and she is also afraid that one day the emperor will take it seriously.

If this child was a prince, he would be scolded, but the imperial concubine would never allow such a big threat to stand before her.

But a princess without inheritance rights would have no chance of ascending the throne, and she would not pose any threat if she were alive.

The imperial concubine took a step back and did not take any action, allowing him to survive.

Anyway, under her hands, surviving is one thing, but growing up safely is another.

Without the queen, the harem is under her control. How he survives is just a matter of her words.

Three meals a day became irregularly delivered, there was no ice in the summer, and there was a lack of carbon in the winter, and clothes... Yuan Jing grew up in such an environment.

Later, when the imperial concubine gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, his situation became even more difficult.

The imperial concubine's son was quite favored by the emperor. He was spoiled and became extremely domineering and overbearing.

After she grew up, she disliked her half-sister Yuan Jing and always found ways to bully him.

Yuan Jing can be said to be a typical representative of beauty, strength and tragedy.

However, he was extremely intelligent and quick-witted, and knew how to bide his time even at a young age.

When he grew up, he began to gather people around him, and began to build up his own power by relying on the connections left by his mother.

He accumulated strength step by step and began to take revenge.

First, the imperial concubine was "discovered" to have committed adultery, and the emperor was furious and banished her to the cold palace.

The eldest prince, who had been favored for a long time, broke his leg "accidentally" when he left the palace, and he had no hope of inheriting the throne.

The old story of the imperial concubine plotting to murder the queen was also dug up. In order not to implicate her only child, the imperial concubine in the cold palace committed suicide by drinking poison.

This is Yuan Jing's first step towards revenge.

In the second step, he began to prepare a plan to "pull the emperor to the throne and replace him himself."

Those tragic things happened only with the emperor's connivance.

In fact, in Yuan Jing's eyes, he was the culprit of everything.

Taking advantage of the past incident of the imperial concubine plotting to murder his mother, Yuan Jing found a way to appear in front of the emperor.

Out of guilt and some remaining anger towards the imperial concubine, the more the imperial concubine disliked a person when he was alive, the more the emperor wanted him to stand out in front of others.

As a result, Yuan Jing was given the title of Princess Zhaohe, and received many rewards, and her reputation spread throughout the capital.

Yuan Jing also took advantage of the limelight to win over people, accumulate power and favorable situations, and advance his plan step by step.
