I was spotted by the heroines while doing the quick-travel mission.

"Mother, why are you here?" Yang Liu was having her hair wiped by a palace maid when she felt the person next to her kneeling down hurriedly to pay their respects. She subconsciously turned her head to look.

The beautiful woman in a gorgeous snow-blue palace dress just stood there and looked down at her. There was no warmth in her eyes, as if she was treating her like an object.

"How did you get into such a mess?" She spoke in a cold voice, with a condescending tone that didn't sound like blame, but it didn't sound like worry either.

"Reporting to my mother, someone pushed me into the water. My sister was anxious, so she also jumped into the water to save me..." With her delicate little body, she bowed her head and stated respectfully.

Yang Liu lowered her head and didn't dare to say a word. When she took a bath, she received the original owner's memory and the entire plot introduction. She knew very well that the woman in front of her was not a good person. She was cold and indifferent, and looked at people like ants, including her own daughters.

Speaking of the original body, the system said that it was uncertain when it dissipated, so it intervened directly from the early stage, and made Yang Liu suffer a lot. No kidding, he almost drowned.

"Okay, I got it. Clean up with Jinyuan, and palace servants will take you to your father soon. Don't forget what I taught you in the past." The woman glanced at her other daughter who was soaking in the pool, said something calmly, and turned around and left with her people.

"I know," Yang Liu agreed, and said no more.

The original body's mother was the imperial concubine of the current dynasty. Her surname was Yu and her name was Zhishu. Her brother, Yu Zhenshu, was the prime minister of the current dynasty. Her father was a general guarding the country, and her mother was the empress dowager's sister. With such a background, even the emperor had to give her some face.

But the two children had no feelings for their mother. When the two daughters were born, they were left to the care of the palace servants. Unless necessary, they would hardly visit the two children. Although it seemed that the two children were not favored by the Imperial Concubine, the palace servants did not dare to pretend to obey them. After all, their Imperial Concubine was not someone who was easy to get along with. If they did not care about it now, if they suddenly remembered it one day and asked them to take responsibility, they would probably have to move their heads.

Yang Liu rubbed his face, looking uglier than if his father had died.

Because next, the dog emperor started to make trouble. First, he killed the empress dowager, then falsely accused the heroine's family of rebellion and killed all nine clans. Then, out of consideration for their relationship, Yu Zhishu was sent to the cold palace. From then on, the two little ones began their difficult journey to survive.

'System, can I change the plot?'

[The host can make minor adjustments, which will not be counted in the interpretation task rules as long as it does not affect the general direction of the story. ]

"It's fine as long as it can be changed."

After hearing the system's exact reply, Yang Liu breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, there is more room for maneuver, although she can also just follow the plot and be done with it.

But there is still a task to complete [Heroine’s Favorability], so you can’t just follow the routine. After all, in the original book, the heroine personally eliminated the last “hidden danger” of her sister.

After Yang Liu finished tidying up, she looked at the heroine who was also dressing up.

The heroine Liu Jinyuan is the third princess of the current dynasty. She is dull, eccentric and taciturn. Her personality is really unpleasant in this palace where flattery is required to survive. She is in sharp contrast to her elder sister, the second princess Liu Chaoyuan.

Yang Liu looked like a taciturn little girl at that time, but she became a ruthless empress in the later period. She didn't dare to even think about the sadness in between. She just memorized it and then glanced over it.

Liu Jinyuan noticed Yang Liu's gaze, looked up and saw her staring at him as if she was thinking about something, but he did not see any malice in her, so he just let her go. It was not until Yang Liu's stare made his back hairy that he opened his mouth to ask.

"Sister, what are you looking at?"

Willow's hair was half dry and fell down like a waterfall. Both of them caught a cold when they fell into the water. Now the tips of their noses looked red. They sneezed twice before they could say anything and felt dizzy for a moment.

"nothing."

Yang Liu held the handkerchief handed to her by the palace maid and covered her nose with it, sniffing. Her childish voice was tinged with a heavy nasal tone.

"You can't tell Father that you fell into the water today. If he asks, it's because you two wanted to stay cool. Otherwise, he will blame Mother for not taking good care of you."

When Yang Liu saw Liu Jinyuan get up, she went over to her with a thick blanket, wrapped her up completely, rubbed her dripping hair, wiped her face, and put her hand close to her to check her temperature to make sure there was no sign of fever before letting other palace maids change Liu Jinyuan's clothes.

"Don't be so impulsive in the future. You can't swim. If you and I both drown today, it will fulfill the wish of the person who pushed me into the water."

Liu Jinyuan stretched out her arms to change her clothes, nodded a little confusedly, and felt that Yang Liu's words were a bit blaming, and she felt a little aggrieved. A trace of sadness inevitably appeared on her calm face. Her delicate eyebrows were twisted, and her big grape-like eyes looked at Yang Liu with watery eyes, which made her heart soften.

"I never blame you. You risked your life to save me by jumping into the water. I am very grateful to you and will repay you with gratitude. Believe me, this will never happen again. I will protect myself and you."

Yang Liu spoke in a halting manner. She held the blinking Liu Jinyuan in her arms and rubbed her face which was warmed by the water, feeling the soft and wonderful touch. She also sighed that obedient children are good, fragrant and soft.

Liu Jinyuan was hugged by Yang Liu, and she hesitantly reached out her hands to hug him back. In fact, she didn't quite understand what Yang Liu meant by those words, but she had heard the word "protect" from her teacher, so she naturally understood its meaning. Children are most likely to have emotions, and the cold stone that had been neglected and ignored just collapsed quietly.

"Okay..." Liu Jinyuan responded softly.

While waiting for the palace maids to tidy up the two of them, Yang Liu took the lead, holding Liu Jinyuan's hand and followed the eunuch who came to pick them up to the Imperial Garden.

After walking along the winding path and through the flowers, Yang Liu finally saw that the dog emperor who was said to be cruel and ruthless was actually much more pleasing to the eye than she had imagined. After thinking about it, she realized that emperors usually have distinctive facial features and an imposing manner, and they would definitely not be a greasy man with a big belly.

"Father."

"Father."

Yang Liu let go of Liu Jinyuan's hand and saluted the emperor. Although the emperor disliked Yu Zhishu, he was not an enemy to the two daughters. His attitude was gentle, neither happy nor worried, and he looked like a strict father.

"No need to be polite, Chaoyuan, Jinyuan, come here, your father has something to ask you."

After thanking her, Yang Liu pulled Liu Jinyuan up, placed her next to herself and sat closer to the emperor. Yang Liu didn't want such a good child to be used by the emperor to extract information at such a young age.

"Why did your Majesty summon me?"

Yang Liu swung her legs and looked at the old emperor with a bright smile, looking very innocent.
